After Han Xizai talked about it, his expression was excited and his blood was rekindled. He had originally wanted to give up Tang Kingdom and did not want to enter the official career again, because he could no longer see hope and did nothing.

However, since he discovered Su Chen, Han Xizai felt that he could still fight again.

Han Xizai looked at Su Chen and told him about a young past. Now it seems that he is very sad.

He was a descendant of the northern generals. He was well versed in military tactics and was familiar with government affairs. He had a close relationship with Li Gu, the prime minister of the Later Zhou Dynasty, in his early years.

When they were young, they had the talent and ambition to support the world. However, during the Ming Dynasty of the Later Tang Dynasty, Han Xizai was unable to stay in the north because his family offended the powerful and could no longer stay in the north, so he went to Jiangnan to seek development, while Li Gu continued to stay in the Central Plains.

Before parting, Li Gu practiced the practice in Zhengyang County, Henan Province. He had a glass of wine. After drinking too much, Han Xizai made a bold statement: "If Jiangnan uses me as prime minister, I will definitely go straight to the unified Central Plains!" At that time, Li Gu was not willing to be outdone.

He said: "If the Central Plains is used as the prime minister, I will take Jiangnan like taking things out of my pocket!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, bowed and said goodbye, from now on, from all over the world.

Twenty years passed in a flash, Li Gu became the prime minister under Zhou Shizong, and the battle to capture Lianghuai in the Later Zhou Dynasty. Li Gu was the commander-in-chief of the front line and had been offering suggestions, so he was adopted by Shizong. Therefore, Li Gu was involved in the capture of Lianghuai.

history.

But Han Xizai was an official in the Southern Tang Dynasty at this time, and he was all the official positions that drafted copywriting and made no achievements. He even made a personal mistake in the court's policy, failed in the front, and lost the fourteen prefectures in Huainan, which completely shattered his dreams.

After hearing this, Su Chen nodded slightly, sighing in his heart that Han Xizai was not satisfied with her talent and felt a little sympathetic.

"Then Lord Li Gu, are you still alive now?"

Han Xizai shook his head and smiled bitterly: "He passed away in the first year of Jianlong, for five years. He died as a place, and has realized his ambitions and made his life worthy of his life. Although I am still alive, there is nothing worthy of praise.

Credit, in this chaotic world at the end of the Tang Dynasty and the changes of the century, how many future generations can remember me, Han Xizai?"

Su Chen already understood Han Xizai's sentimentality, that is, he was not satisfied with his talent, did not realize his political ambitions, and felt that he had wasted his whole life.

However, in historical records, it seems that Han Xizai is even more famous than Li Gu, which may be related to the painting "Han Xizai Night Banquet Picture" and has been passed down through the ages.

"Uncle Han, I think that Shu Kingdom was not destroyed by the Song Dynasty this time, and it blocked the Song Dynasty's footsteps from unifying the world, so we had a chance. If I guessed well, the Song Dynasty would avoid Shu Kingdom next and put it in a hurry.

The target is to the Tang Kingdom and the Southern Han Dynasty, and to borrow troops from Jingchu. If the Southern Han Dynasty is captured, the Qian Yue will be united in the country, and the Tang Kingdom will be surrounded."

This is Su Chen's analysis and also a move by Zhao Kuangyin in history. Although the Song Dynasty has been using troops to suppress the Southern Tang Dynasty, it has never found a suitable opportunity. In the end, it has to annex other small southern countries first and finally encircle the Southern Tang Dynasty.

At present, the allies that the Southern Tang can win over include Hou Shu, Linzhou Zhefan, Southern Han and Northern Han. Although the Khitan can also be used as foreign aid, the Khitan is not my race after all. Cooperating with them is equivalent to seeking skin with a tiger and attracting wolves into the house.

Su Chen did not want to introduce the Khitan into the Central Plains because of resisting the Song Dynasty. At most, he took advantage of the situation to hold the Song Dynasty and scare it.

As for the Qian family's Yue Kingdom, it has been a feud with the Southern Tang Dynasty for generations, and it belongs to the group that should be eliminated. Moreover, Yue Kingdom has already surrendered to the Song Kingdom, so it is even more impossible to win over it.

After this analysis, only a few allies should be contacted early.

After listening to Su Chen's analysis, Han Xizai felt it was very reasonable and became more and more impressed by his knowledge and views.

"Yixuan, next we will follow our plan and make arrangements, gradually suppress the Song Party in the court, strive for the new Party, carry out reforms, eliminate bad policies, and make the Tang Dynasty united and the people can be more prosperous. In military terms, carry out

The expansion of the army and training, but the officials will definitely be afraid and we need to constantly advise. Finally, it depends on the policies of the State of Song, how much time is reserved for us for the advancement of our Southern Tang."

Han Xizai explained these key points to him with great sincerity.

Su Chen hesitated for a moment and asked softly: "Uncle Han, do you think our Tang Dynasty monarch has the ability to protect Jiangnan?"

"Do your best and leave your destiny!"

Han Xizai had a fair view of Li Yu's ruling ability and perhaps had some literary talent, but he was much inferior to Liezu in terms of governing the country and courage.

Su Chen sighed softly, there was nothing he could do. After he traveled through time, he found that he lived in the Southern Tang Dynasty, not in the Northern Song Dynasty.

He is planning to do his part for the time being, and he is not sure about the outcome in the future!

Take one step at a time, if the Southern Tang really wants to perish in the end, he can only escape from the south of the Yangtze River, go to the islands overseas to take refuge, or go to the Northern Song Dynasty to settle down.

Survival and perish with the Southern Tang Dynasty is not Su Chen’s motto!

Su Chen and Han Xizai chatted for an hour, and when they left the room, it was almost dusk.

He walked out of the courtyard, but was stopped by someone.

"Brother Su, is it you? Oh, hey, I finally saw you!"

A young man rushed out.

Su Chen turned around and saw a little fat man running over in gorgeous clothes. It was Han Yunpeng.

"Han Xiaopang, you are here in Jinling!"

Han Xiaopang laughed and said, "Yes, since you went out, I came to Jinling with a boring momentum in Runzhou. I want to expand my business here. Haha, I opened Shuxuan here, you

I kept printing those legends and earned a lot of money.”

Su Chen smiled: "It's not bad, I'm getting more and more flexible in making money."

Han Yunpeng asked: "Brother Su, are you here in the Han Mansion? Are you here to see my father?"

Su Chen nodded: "Well, I've just talked about something and was about to leave the mansion."

Han Yunpeng was a little sad and angry: "My father didn't even leave you to have a meal at the house. He was too stingy. No, I'll arrange tonight that we'll go to the flower house for a drink. When I come back, I'll ask my father to report the bill."

Su Chen was a little funny and shook his head and said, "No need, I have to go back to my house to have dinner. I just arrived today and there are still many things at home."

Han Yunpeng was a little disappointed: "Oh, okay, let's not go to the Hualou today, we will go there another day. Brother Su, we will be gone for half a year. I'll go to your house to eat with you, and I can talk to you more

. ""

"Okay, let's go!" Su Chen had a good impression of this little brother.

Han Yunpeng is quite loyal and has a very good relationship with him. He is not like other yamen, and he has a simple personality and is suitable for making friends.

"Hehe, let's go. By the way, I still have a lot of venison and aquatic products at home. When I ask my servant to pack some fresh ones, we will take your house to cook and eat them."
