Chapter 56 Liu He Persuasion
Tian Chou pointed out that Liu Bian was not yet twenty years old, so he had already calculated that Liu Bian was only nineteen years old now.
Nineteen-year-old Liu Bian has already taken charge of Bingzhou, opened up Mengzhou, first attacked Xianbei, then defeated the Huns, and even eradicated the Yellow Turbans. He is powerful in the world and has won the hearts of the people. Does such a great Han prince need Liu Yu to worry and worry about?
?
"Everything you said makes sense, but I still can't accept it!" Liu Yu has a great psychological burden. He is not a mediocre person. He has made outstanding political achievements in his life. He is also Liu Bian's elder, and he must have some airs. Although
On the surface, he and Liu Bian were discussing things on their own terms and did not argue too much, but Liu Yu still couldn't lose face if he had to bow his head like this.
In the late Han Dynasty, celebrities paid attention to integrity and reputation. Liu Yu was somewhat stubborn in integrity. He would not easily surrender to Liu Bian before he was at the end of his rope.
Liu Yu actually complained about Liu Bian. He felt that if Liu Bian's methods were softer and he asked a middleman to make peace, Liu Yu would give in with half push. In the latter, Liu Bian's methods were harder and he directly attacked Jixian. Liu Yu was defeated.
Even if you are really at the end of your rope, it will work.
But it happened that Liu Bian ended up in the current state of being neither good nor bad, which made Liu Yu very unhappy.
Liu Yu felt that Liu Bian was a bitch and had to build an archway, which was very shameless.
"What doubts does Liu Gong have?" Tian Chou asked.
Liu Yu suddenly understood something at this time. He originally wanted to ask Tian Chou to help him solve his doubts, but why did Tian Chou become Liu Bian's lobbyist after solving his doubts? Liu Yu felt that this matter became a bit unreasonable!
Sir, have you also been instigated by that boy Liu Bian? We are obviously going to talk about how to solve the difficulties before us, but you are constantly saying that I will cooperate. The topic is wrong!
He had something in mind, but Liu Yu didn't point it out. He looked at Tian Chou with a deep look in his eyes, and finally shook his head and sighed.
Liu Yu knew in his heart that even Tian Chou had transferred to Liu Bian's camp, so no one in Youzhou could help him make suggestions. As for solving the current dilemma, there was no way to start or solve it.
Unable to accept the reality he was about to face was the confusion in Liu Yu's heart, but in fact he had to accept it.
"Sir, that's it for today!" Liu Yu's mentality collapsed. He couldn't talk any more, and there was no need to talk any more.
Tian Chou was very sensible, so he stood up and left. Before leaving, he turned around and said to Liu Yu: "It's not that I won't help Liu Gong, it's that I can't do anything about it. The only thing I can do now is to let Liu Gong open his heart as much as possible and accept the current situation."
It’s just a game.”
After finishing speaking, Tian Chou walked away in a leisurely manner.
For Tian Chou, it's not that he doesn't want to help Liu Yu solve his current predicament, but he has thought of many methods in vain, because Tian Chou knows that Liu Bian, the king of Hebei, is too strong, the Bingzhou army is too strong, and Liu Yu,
Youzhou, no matter how good it is, cannot compete at all.
In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are in vain.
Youzhou has been penetrated to the bone by Liu Bian, and it is difficult for the gods to save it, and there is no way to save it.
Liu Yuqian sat with his eyes gradually becoming dull and his back stooped. He understood what Tian Chou meant and that Tian Chou had good intentions, but he was still unwilling to give in after all.
"Your Highness, Mr. Tian Chou has already met Liu Gong." Chen came to report.
At this moment, Liu Bian was writing a letter to Tang Ying. He was in another place and kept writing letters to relieve the worries of his wife and concubines at home. Liu Bian put down the brush in his hand, wiped his palms with brocade cloth and asked: "What's the result?"
"Mr. Tian Chou intended to persuade Liu Gong, but Liu Gong failed to agree." Chen Dao replied.
Liu Bian's plan to poach people and win people's hearts was actually far more powerful than Liu Yu, Tian Chou and others imagined. The Intelligence Bureau penetrated all parts of Youzhou,
Even Liu Yu's mansion has spies from the Intelligence Bureau. Although Guo Jia is in the Suanzao County Allied Forces, members of the Intelligence Bureau are still active in Youzhou. After all, Liu Bian is acting here, and members of the Intelligence Bureau should go all out.
In addition, even if the intelligence bureau can't figure out the information, the guard battalion around Liu Bian can do it. Thirty-six Tiangang Guards and seventy-two Earth Demon Guards are all good at espionage and assassination. Let's do some digging.
The conversation between Tian Chou and Liu Yu was naturally a pediatric matter.
"I expected it." Liu Bian said nonchalantly: "After all, Liu Yu is old and has a high profile. How can he be persuaded so easily? Otherwise, I wouldn't have caused so many things. But Tian Chou
This man is really interesting. He actually acted as a lobbyist for me. It seems that my three previous visits were not in vain! It’s a pity that this man has not been willing to be used by me until now. What a pity!"
"Tian Chou will definitely serve His Highness," Chen Dao said.
Liu Bian shook his head and said: "If Liu Yu doesn't surrender, Tian Chou will not surrender. Even if Liu Yu surrenders, if I don't go and invite him, Tian Chou will not come to surrender. This man has a high profile!"
"If this person cannot be used by Your Highness, it is better to kill him as soon as possible!" Chen Dao looked serious, and Liu Bian was a little surprised when he said these words.
Kill them early to avoid future troubles!
Liu Bian suddenly laughed and said: "Chen Shuzhi, you are going too far! After reading so many military books, people have become gloomy. I am the king of Hebei now. If I can't tolerate this, I will
Who else in the world is willing to serve me? Killing one person to wipe out everyone in the world is not a good deal!"
If he didn't have full trust in Chen Dao, Liu Bian would have suspected that Chen Dao had been incited to rebel and then stabbed him in the back?
"This..." Chen Dao was taught such a lesson, and he didn't know how to respond. His face turned red with embarrassment.
"Forget it, looking at you like this, you can't explain why." Liu Bian waved his hand and said: "Tomorrow you will personally take Liu He to see Liu Yu. Whether the situation will turn around depends on tomorrow. If Liu He is also convinced,
If you can't help Liu Yu..."
Liu Bian paused and then said: "If my son can't convince me, then I can only beat him!"
Unless it is absolutely necessary, Liu Bian, like Liu Yu, does not want to start a war in Youzhou. However, if Liu Yu is determined and unwilling to surrender, then Liu Bian will really have nothing to do until then.
As a last resort, Liu Bian could only really send out the elite cavalry army, trying to seize Youzhou directly with the power of thunder and powerful force.
Of course, if it comes to this, the situation will be very different from Liu Bian's plan, and it will completely violate his original intention.
This is also the worst outcome Liu Bian imagined, and he must be mentally prepared for this.
Chen Dao opened his mouth slightly and wanted to say something, but he was afraid that what he said was not good and would offend Liu Bian, so he simply did not speak. In fact, what Chen Dao also wondered was why Liu Bian didn't persuade Liu Yu himself?
Liu Bian was able to put down his attitude and pay three respects to Tian Chou and treat Cheng Xu. Zhao Gai and others also treated him with courtesy, but they were still unwilling to take the initiative to persuade Liu Yu. This not only confused Chen Dao, but also confused many people.
If we must find an answer to this question, then Liu Bian's attitude is also very high. Compared with Liu Yu, who is also a big boss, Liu Bian definitely wants Liu Yu to take the initiative to serve. This is the difference between the big boss and Liu Yu.
In the battle between the bosses, Liu Bian can use many conspiracies and tricks. As long as Liu Yu can lower his head first, everything will be easy to discuss.
Whoever takes the initiative will bow first.
How could the Han prince, the King of Hebei, bow his head first?
Everyone is just messing around, so who doesn’t want to be better?
It wasn't that Liu Bian didn't want to take the initiative to persuade Liu Yu to surrender, but he couldn't go. There were so many pairs of eyes under his command looking at him, and no one wanted Liu Bian to bow his head first, as if begging Liu Yu to persuade him to surrender.
Liu Gong, surrender to me! If you don't surrender, I will kill you!
Just think about it, even if Liu Bian took the initiative to persuade Liu Yu to surrender, he would generally use coercion and inducement to deceive Liu Yu, making Liu Yu feel hypocritical. It is very likely that the talks between the two would collapse.
If Liu Bian lowered his posture and tried to persuade him to surrender, people would think he was forcing him to surrender, and his reputation would be ruined.
Your Highness, please accept me, Liu Yu, to pay my respects. From now on, Your Highness will be the Lord of Youzhou. I, Liu Yu, am willing to devote myself to Your Highness and die.
If Liu Yu took the initiative to offer his services, the feeling would be very different. At least Liu Bian would feel very happy and the talks would not collapse.
If Liu Yu lowered his posture and surrendered, the world would definitely think that he really surrendered, and that Liu Bian could tolerate others.
On this basis, if we can create some public opinion guidance and boast, then Liu Bian's reputation can be boosted and the people's hearts will fall in love with him. Wouldn't it be nice?
Of course, everything is possible, and there may be people who maliciously manipulate public opinion to slander Liu. This is not unprecedented, and it is purely to disgust people.
In order to make the plan go according to Liu Bian's idea, Chen Dao took Liu He to see Liu Yu early the next morning. Liu He secretly sneaked back to Youzhou. His identity has not been exposed yet, so he can't make a big splash for the time being, at least.
Liu Bian felt that he had to hide the news about Liu He's return to Youzhou, so that when it was revealed, it would be a great stimulus to Youzhou officials.
So Chen Dao visited Liu Yu, and Liu He acted as Chen Dao's entourage and accompanied him. After all, Chen Dao was also Liu Bian's personal guard chief and a famous man. The servants in Liu Yu's house did not dare to neglect, and after the report, they directly led him to see him.
Liu Yu, Liu Yu didn't sleep all night, his eye sockets were sunken, and his complexion was very bad. When Chen Dao entered the room, Liu Yu looked like he was in a trance, but he couldn't notice it in time.
"Father!" After Liu He shouted excitedly and tremblingly, he suddenly rushed in front of Liu Yu.
"This...you..." Liu Yu gradually came to his senses. His face was full of surprise and he quickly held Liu He's hand and asked eagerly: "Why are you back?"
"His Highness sent someone to escort me back." Tears had already left on Liu He's face. Liu Yu's haggard appearance made him very heartbroken. With this heartache, Liu He asked sincerely: "Father, why?"
As for that?"
"It's hard to explain in words!" Liu Yu sighed, and then asked with concern: "Has Your Highness ever given you trouble?"
This time, before Liu He could reply, Chen Dao said with a stern face and an unhappy expression: "What does Mr. Liu mean?"
"I..." Liu Yu immediately realized that he was speaking without restraint and seemed to be slandering Liu Bian. He wanted to argue a few words, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to argue.
Liu He turned around, saluted and apologized to Chen Dao, and said, "General, don't blame me. It was just a slip of the tongue on my part. There was absolutely no other intention. General, please allow me, father and son, to have a few heart-to-heart words later."
"Humph!" Chen Dao glared at Liu Yu, who snorted coldly and walked out of the house towards the courtyard.
After Chen arrived, Liu Yu and Liu He both relaxed a lot. Liu He, who was thinking about how to persuade, heard Liu Yu speak first: "How can you come back to Youzhou? Does your Majesty know?
"
Liu He shook his head and said: "I have no intention of going back this time. What can you do if Your Majesty knows? The entire court is controlled by the old thief Dong Zhuo, and all ministers who disobey him are tortured and killed. This way
The people in the imperial court are also worried, so it would be better to come back."
