Chapter 208
There is no eternal enemy or friend in the world. This is true between people and between countries.
Since ancient times, the enemies of the Central Plains have come from the north. The Khitans are now powerless to invade the south, but if they recover, they will still be as unreate of the Central Plains thieves as before, which is no better than the State of Jin.
So Song Qing wants to help them not be completely eliminated by Wu Qimai, so as to consume Wu Qimai's strength. At the same time, we can't make them too strong, which is the minimum way to protect themselves.
Zhu Wu and Cao Zheng were ordered to strengthen the monitoring of the State of Jin, and no wind and grass could be let go.
In addition, Xiao Rang was ordered to draft a piece of article and copy it to all parts of Shu. Zhao Huan has given himself the land of Shuzhong. Although he can't enter by force now, it is necessary to have a political offensive first.
The general idea of the article is that under the world, it is not the king's land, and the guest of the land is not the king's minister. Now the court has handed over the land of Shu to the jurisdiction of the King of Liang, hoping that the people will actively cooperate. In the future, those who abandon the secret and turn to the Ming Dynasty will not be blamed, and they will still follow Fang La's rebels to kill without forgiveness.
Fang La is very popular in Shu. What Song Qing wants to do now is to overwhelm him on justice first. As for buying people's hearts, Song Qing can do much better than Fang La. Fang La still steals many of his practices from Song Qing!
Fang La is now afraid and hate Song Qing. I believe that after this article arrives, it will be enough for him to have a headache.
Power is actually a seductive poison. Even if you know it is poisonous, you have to fight to drink it.
Wu Qimai's current mind is undoubtedly getting closer and closer to the idea of A Guda, that is, he must leave the throne to his descendants, rather than the vigorous tradition of virginity.
The current Hanbo was also under the oppression of the elders, so Wu Qimai had to stand up. However, because Wanyan's defeat in the Central Plains, he happened to give Wu Qi a reason to buy him. After cleaning up Wanyan Zong's brother, he will be completely dismissed and clear the way for his son's future accession to the throne.
Wu Qimai is attached to power, but why are others not like this? Wanyan Zonggan had a lesson, so he did it more secretly this time and contacted more people.
Wu Qimai is paying close attention to Wanyan Zonggan, and Wanyan Zonggan is also on guard against Wu Qimai. With Wanyan Yinshu suddenly leading troops into the city, Wanyan Zong knew that it would be impossible not to do it again. No emperor could tolerate the emperor's son threatening his throne. The last time he didn't kill himself because he took into account the reactions of the tribes, and this time it was going to come true.
The news has come from his brother Wanyan Zongwang that he will not be edicted to enter Beijing, and disobeying the emperor's order is equivalent to promising to help himself in disguise. It can be said that he has the strongest foreign aid.
Wanyan Zong has been leading troops for many years. Although he is idle at home now, the hundred-footed insect is dead and not stiff, and there are still many loyal subordinates to him.
So Wanyanzong ordered his men, a friend of Wanyan Yinshu, to cheat Wanyan Yinshu in the name of inviting him to drink, and then unexpectedly killed him and seized his military power.
After collecting people, Wanyan Zonggan publicly declared in Beijing that he would not accept the rule of Wu Qimai and asked Wu Qimai to abdicate to Wanyan according to the rules of the Jurchens.
At the same time, Wanyan Zongwang, who received the news, raised his army in Xijing to respond to his brother and asked Wu Qimai to abdicates.
For a while, the situation in Dajin has changed. Some people are loyal to the emperor Wu Qi bought it, and of course there are also those who support Wanyan.
However, the most surprising thing is that Wanyan, who is in Nanjing, the State of Jin, actually stopped very much, that is, he did not publicly support the Wanyan Zonggan brothers, nor did he stand on the side of Wu Qi's side, and his attitude was a little strange.
Wanyan Zong shouted to support Wanyan, but his mind was well known by Sima Zhao's heart and passers-by, so except for his brother Wanyan Zongwang, other noble elders were just thunderous without rain, and few were willing to really send troops.
Even so, the Wanyan Zonggan brothers gathered 300,000 troops all the way out of Beijing and went south, one route west to east, and the two roads surrounded the capital.
Since Wu Qimai already has the intention to deal with Wanyanzong's gan brothers, of course, he will not be unprepared at all, so when he receives two armies to advance into Zhongdu, he is not very nervous.
At the same time, he issued a decree to condemn the Wanyan brothers for committing chaos and calling on all the military and civilians to fight against them together. While mobilized people from all walks of life to return to the capital.
If you want to say that Wu Qimai can't rest assured now, it is the Liangshan army that is ready to move at the border gate. Shi Liai has disappeared, and now all the contact with Zhending has been cut off.
Wu Qimai knew that his love was probably more and less auspicious, and he couldn't help regretting it. Why did he agree to his plan when his head was hot at that time? There is no one to give advice around now.
Wu Qimai has many literary ministers and generals around him, but when it comes to playing tricks, he feels that the head of the Han people is enough. Because when the Wanyan brothers first started their army, at the suggestion of Gao Qing, he controlled all his relatives and friends associated with the rebels and asked them to write to their relatives and friends in the rebels, put down their weapons and return to the court, otherwise they would be killed.
According to Gao Qing's words, this move is called pulling out of the pot, and you may not see anything for the time being, but as long as the army of the king of Qin gradually gathers, there will definitely be many soldiers from thieves to abandon the secret.
Wu Qimai is convinced of this, because he always believes that he is the royal orthodoxy of Dajin and is invincible. It was also because of this that he invisibly looked up to Gao Qing.
On this day, after convening the ministers to discuss how to deal with the affairs of Wanyanzong's gan brothers, Wu Qimai left Gao Qing alone. He has received a report that Han Shizhong's department in Bazhou and Yue Fei's department in Daizhou all show signs of mobilization.
Liang Shan's soldiers are strong and his horse is strong, and his firearms are sharp, so he has to guard against it. If there is no civil strife at home, I won't be afraid of him, but I can't do it now.
Gao Qing knew what the emperor was worried about, but he didn't have any good advice. Now the State of Jin is fighting in the nest. If Liangshan's army really wants to take the opportunity to invade, it is almost impossible to block Liangshan's army.
But of course, he can't say that he has no idea, otherwise will the emperor trust him? After pondering for a moment, he suddenly had an idea and took the initiative to say, "Your Majesty, I forgive you. I don't think Song Qing will send troops at this moment."
"Oh! Why is this?
Wu Qimai's most reassuring thing is Song Qing. Gao Qing actually said that he would not send troops, and there was no reason for his spirit.
"Please talk about this matter from Song Qing's perspective. He may think that if he sent troops while taking advantage of the internal chaos of Dajin, will the originally divided Dajin army be re-integrated to resist foreign enemies together? The answer is obvious. No matter how much the Wanyan brothers make trouble, it's all about our family. If there are outsiders, this nature can change."
"In addition, I also feel that if Song Qing sent troops, it may not be a bad thing. Your Majesty can take this opportunity to call on all the soldiers and civilians to abandon their former suspicions and fight against foreign enemies, so as to regain control of people and horses. If Liang Shan's people and horses can attack my big golden hinterland, I don't believe that they have this ability."
What Gao Qing said is not unreasonable, but Wu Qimai feels that things are not that simple. While thinking about it, I suddenly heard the report of the waiter, and Shi Li Ai came back.
How can Shi Liai come back alive? Wu Qimai was happy first, and then a doubt came to his mind. How did Shi Liai escape from the tiger-like Liangshan prison?
Gao Qing's eyes turned around and lost no time to say, "Can't you see that an adult literati with no chicken power can escape from the heavily guarded Liangshan Mountain? You must have suffered a lot!"
These two guys have been fighting in secret for a long time. How can Wu Qimai not know? However, playing the art of balance has always been a pleasure for every emperor.
At present, he quietly ordered people to invite Shi Liai in, but he wanted to see how Shi Liai explained to himself.
At this time, he is indeed brave. According to reason, he has betrayed Jin Guo's secrets and should run as far as possible. But once he comes, he is reluctant to be rich, and there is really no way out. Because he had defected to Jinren in his early years, his family was all in Jinguo. If he ran away, what would his family do?
So in despertration, he had no choice but to come back. However, he also prepared a lot of words to make the emperor trust him again.
As soon as he entered the hall, Shi Liai knelt down and cried like a lot of hard work to find the organization. A handful of snot and a handful of tears, that's a tragedy.
His cry made Wu Qimai unable to ask, and turned his face to wince at Gao Qingyi.
Gao Qingyi nodded his head, quickly stepped forward to help Shi Liai, and comforted him, "Lord Shi, what's wrong with you? If you have any grievances, just say it. Your Majesty will be in charge of you. I heard that you were arrested by Liang Shan?
You bastard, it seems that you are afraid that Your Majesty will not know that I will be arrested? Do you need a reminder? Your wife deserves to cuckold you.
Shi Liai broke away from Gao Qing's descendants, stretched out his hand and pulled off his clothes, and said sadly, "Your Majesty, please look, Weichen really almost can't see your majesty."
I only saw Shi Liai's snow-white skin, which is as white as a woman, crisscrossed and covered with scars, which is shocking.
Wu Qimai couldn't bear to see this. As soon as he wanted to comfort him, he heard Gao Qingyi speak first.
"Tut, tut, Lord Shi can be said to be well-intentioned!"
If the emperor said so, Shi Liai would be scared and paralyzed, and there would be no need to be so polite to Gao Qing.
"What do you mean by Gao? Do you want to slander me in front of your majesty? I was severely punished by the Liangshan thief, but I have always been loyal to your majesty. If I don't get out of it, how can I bring back the important information I know?
Hearing that the two are going to quarrel again, Wu Qimai is furious. When is it? Why are you two dogs still in the mood to fight?
He suddenly patted the bookcase and said in a low voice, " Shut up, Shi Qing, what do you think, how did you escape back and bring back any important information?"
Shi Liai knelt down again and touched his head and said, "Your Majesty, I will tell you carefully."
At that time, Li Ai first told the details of how to be captured. As for not revealing the secret after being tortured, he said that he deliberately let Liang Shan know.
Because the rebellion of the Wanyan brothers has been known all over the world, it is no secret now. That's why he dared to say that.
In the end, Li Ai said, "Weichen pretended to promise to surrender them and said a lot of things that should not be said to deceive their trust, but it was also because of this that he discovered a big secret of Liangshan."
