Chapter 539 Song Mo Is Crazy
Some of the officials under King Jin were quite dissatisfied with the fact that Wu Ren came to discuss the alliance on behalf of Pingzhou.
"Pingzhou sent a smooth-talking boy to talk to us about the alliance. He has no sincerity at all!"
Some people hold different opinions, "Wu Ren's status is not low. Since he is Lu Songli's apprentice, he is fully qualified to be sent as an envoy to the East China Sea."
Moreover, the principals and senior officials of Pingzhou are all young, such as Lu Songli, Qin Sheng and his wife, Qin Heng and other brothers, as well as their subordinates...
It can be said that heroes emerge from youth.
If people outside look down upon them because of their young age, they will definitely suffer.
Some people also saw that Wu Ren had business talents and suggested that King Jin recruit him.
After King Jin agreed, the person in charge of entertaining Wu Ren even hinted to him that if he agreed to stay in the East China Sea and serve King Jin, King Jin could accept him as his adopted son.
Isn't the identity of the adopted son of Prince Jin more noble than that of the apprentice of Governor Pingzhou?
Regarding these, Wu Renxu and Wei Snake.
At this time, King Jin planned to launch troops against Dali.
King Jin is willing to form an alliance. But because the focus was elsewhere, there was not much substantial progress in this matter.
King Jin didn't care about the alliance, and Wu Ren didn't care much about it.
To put it bluntly, Pingzhou is stronger than Donghai. Wu Ren, who is confident, does not only eat and drink, but also walks around every day.
Everywhere he went, he habitually inspected the investment environment. Occasionally, he would help the poor prostitute girl in the flower house, and then support the owner of the teahouse who was about to close down...
When Xu Junfan and his group of angels arrived at the East China Sea, they were in great momentum.
This scene happened to be seen by Wu Ren, who came to the teahouse near the city gate for entertainment every day.
The two sides looked at each other from a distance. At this moment, Wu Ren knew that it was time for him to leave.
Shortly after Wu Ren left, news came out from the Jin Palace that the imperial court was coming to recruit people, and this time the imperial court offered generous recruitment conditions.
It was difficult for him to fight against the four punches with both hands. In order to break the deadlock, Song Mo decided against all opinions and decided to cede two states to his two brothers and agreed to allow the two brothers to occupy the two states for autonomy.
But there is one condition, that is, you can no longer rebel against the imperial court.
If you accept the benefits from him but violate the agreement, then he will send troops to destroy them regardless of the cost or consequences!
To show sincerity, one person was given to two counties first. After the three parties worked together to encircle Xie Zhan, he and the King of Jin divided the southern land.
Such generous recruitment conditions directly surprised King Jin, King Cheng and others.
Southwest, Prince Cheng’s Mansion
After receiving the imperial edict, King Cheng couldn't believe it, "Is Song Mo so generous?"
Dong Jichuan: "It's not surprising that Song Mo wants to break the situation."
Song Mo wanted to unite the two princes and eliminate the weakest Xie Zhan first, and then deal with Pingzhou...
"Mr. Dong, should we respond to Song Mo's recruitment order or not?" King Cheng asked. To be honest, he was a little moved.
Dong Jichuan: "The prince might as well agree first. If the King of Jin agrees, but the prince does not agree, then the prince will definitely become a thorn in the side of the court..."
Hearing this, King Cheng made some calculations. Even if this was just a plot by the court, the benefits were actually obtained.
"Okay, then promise him!" King Cheng completely forgot that he had agreed to form an alliance with Xie Zhan before.
At the same time, King Jin also felt that he could agree to the emperor's conditions. After all, the benefits were at his fingertips, and those who didn't agree would be a fool. As for the future, let’s talk about it later.
The news that Emperor Dali recruited King Jin and King Cheng spread quickly.
At this time, Pingzhou's senior officials were also discussing this matter.
"Song Mo is crazy. His behavior directly divided Dali." Lu Desheng couldn't believe that Song Mo would make such a decision.
There are thirteen states in the world, and Xianbei and Pingzhou originally occupied two of them. Now that King Cheng is allowed to advance to the two states, eight will go to them. Even if Xie Zhan is destroyed later and Lingnan is taken back, Song Mo will only have five states left.
Xue Xu sighed, "Song Mo obviously spent a lot of money to prevent King Cheng and King Jin from causing trouble to the court and holding back."
Guo Chong smiled and said, "Song Mo has the determination of a strong man to choke his opponent."
"This idea is correct." Lu Songli said. She had said before that Song Mo was not far from going crazy.
Lu Songli was not too surprised that he would use this method.
At least this can break the deadlock.
Song Mo previously wanted to wipe out all the forces that opposed him from all four sides at once, but that was impossible. The result was that no one could be eliminated.
The current impasse is the result.
Song Mo's only way to resolve the deadlock was to fight consecutively and then defeat them one by one.
"Can these three brothers of the Song family be considered 'brothers who hate each other and defend themselves against their insults'?" Guo Chunsheng joked.
Even if the people inside are beaten to a pulp, when external enemies come, everyone will put aside their hatred, pick up the enemies, and export them to the outside world together.
"Doesn't this mean that in order to deal with the outside world, one must first settle the domestic situation?" Lu Songli interpreted it from another perspective.
When a foreign enemy comes, kill an ally first to calm down the enemy.
After all, if Song Mo had a good view of the overall situation and faced Xianbei's invasion, he would bet on everything and ignore the internal situation, then the subjects of Dali would not let him lose.
Sometimes, it's really hard to tell between gains and losses.
At this time, Xie Zhan was also making preparations.
He calculated the time in his mind. Mr. Jiang has arrived in Pingzhou now, right?
If possible, he would like to go and meet Lu Songli in person.
After we said goodbye that year, they hadn't seen each other for three whole years.
Pingzhou
Jiang Boya landed at the Jinxian dock and sat in a carriage to Changli County, the seat of Pingzhou. He looked outside from time to time.
Although this was his first time in Pingzhou, he had learned about what Pingzhou was like before from his friends' letters. Border towns are really not as rich as the Central Plains.
But Pingzhou is different. It can be seen that the whole Pingzhou is relatively rich.
Moreover, along the way, he received a lot of care from ordinary people in Pingzhou, or a bowl of hot water, or some minor help.
It can be said that the hospitality of the people in Pingzhou was completely beyond his expectations.
Once, Jiang Boya couldn't help asking them why they were so friendly to outsiders.
These ordinary people in Pingzhou smiled and told him, "People in the government often tell us that you are here to improve our lives and help us live a good life."
"In the past two years, many outsiders have moved to Pingzhou to live. Everyone can get along in a friendly manner."
Jiang Boya thought that Pingzhou was big enough, with a large area and sparse population, and the conflict of interests between them was not great.
After Jiang Boya arrived in Changli, he went to the governor's office and handed in a visiting card, asking to see the governor, Lü Songli.
The governor's office received his visiting card and summoned him the next day.
Jiang Boya arrived at the governor's office on time, waiting for Lü Songli's summons.
When the time came, the waiter came to lead the way.
Jiang Boya straightened his clothes and then climbed the stairs.
There is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts. As a counselor, who doesn't want to use his wisdom to pacify the world?
