Chapter 679: Analysis of Strengths and Weaknesses
"Since your speculation is so powerful, then why are there no Yin Clan disciples in the White Lotus Sect?" Cui Shaonian heard Shen Yan's speculation, his eyes were surprised, although Shen Yan's speculation was very bold, but it was strikingly similar to the facts, his face couldn't help but flash a look of seriousness, he glanced at Shen Yan intently, and said slowly.
"Although the Yin clan is the mother family of the three princes, it has very superior advantages, however, the Yin clan also has two shortcomings." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, he knew Cui Shaonian's intentions very well, and glanced at Cui Shaonian with a hint of confidence.
"I want to hear about it." Cui Shaonian seemed to be shocked by Shen Yan's words, although he was ordered to join the White Lotus Sect, he had also thought about the advantages and disadvantages of each family, and he had also thought about why the three princes did not let the people of the Yin clan join the White Lotus Sect.
"You are the Wen Xiang of the White Lotus Sect, and you have always been very smart, you must have thought about this problem." Shen Yan looked at Cui Shaonian's expression, and suddenly understood in his heart that Cui Shaonian had also thought about this, but he didn't think of the answer, or he thought of the answer, but he didn't know if this answer was close to the truth.
"I did think about this issue, however, I have always prided myself on being smart, but I have never found the right answer in this aspect, and I lost to you today, not only in the military aspect, but also in terms of resourcefulness, and Lord Shen has a confident demeanor, I think Lord Shen's answer is closer to the truth than mine, so I listen to it." Cui Shaonian understood the meaning behind Shen Yan's words, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly.
"First, although the Yin Clan has a certain strength in the military, it has not produced outstanding talents in government affairs, and those who join the White Lotus Sect must have attainments or talents in military and political deployment, otherwise, walking on one leg will only make people take advantage of the opportunity, and they will not even be able to sit on an equal footing with the Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect." Shen Yan knew Cui Shaonian's intentions, but he didn't care, Cui Shaonian had already become a prisoner, even if he was a son of the Cui family, once it came to rebellion, even if the emperor wanted to take care of the Cui family's face, Cui Shaonian would not have a way to live.
"Second, in terms of intimacy, everyone in the world knows that the Yin clan is the mother family of the three princes, if the Yin clan joins the White Lotus Sect, they will definitely not be able to escape the surveillance of the Jinyi School, of course, the Jinyi School in Huaibei County has reached some kind of strategic alliance with the White Lotus Sect, so the Jinyi School has lost its supervisory role for the White Lotus Sect. However, there is no unventilated wall in the world, once the Yin clan joins the White Lotus Sect, even if the Yin clan and the three princes come forward to clarify this matter and they have no light, however, the impression of the three princes will definitely plummet. This is not the result that the three princes wanted. ”
"Wonderful." Hearing Shen Yan's words, Cui Shaonian's eyes flashed with a look of surprise, he had also thought about the answer in this regard, but he was denied by himself, Cui Shaonian thought that the three princes didn't want the Yin family to sit big, but wanted to include the Cui family, the Wang family and the Yang family into their chariots, but the court couldn't give a suitable position, so he asked Cui Wang and the Yang family to get a vote.
Of course, it was also the people of the Cui Wang and Yang families who pressed the treasure on the bodies of the three princes, otherwise, the Cui Wang and Yang families would not have sent their children to join the White Lotus Sect. Even so, Cui Wang Yang still pursues the philosophy that he will not put all his eggs in one basket, so except for the Wang family who sent his descendant Wang Tianzuo, the Cui family and the Yang family are both sent out of the concubines.
In this way, once the news is announced, the three families of Cui Wang and Yang can find a suitable reason to get rid of being attacked by others. As for the influence of Shilin, the Cui Wang and Yang families don't seem to attach much importance to it, believing that as long as they have enough power and troops in their hands, Shilin will only become a vassal, not a clear stream of confrontation.
Shen Yan, who Cui Shaonian didn't expect, actually thought of this aspect, and was very sure that this was the Yin Clan's shortcomings, if you look at it from this aspect alone, there is not much difference between his wisdom and Shen Yan, but the time he spent thinking about this aspect was far longer than Shen Yan.
"Since Lord Shen has speculated on the shortcomings of the Yin family, why did the three princes use the three families of Cui Wang and Yang instead of finding other families? For example, the Song family, the son of the world, is a die-hard supporter of the three princes. A faint smile appeared on the corner of Cui Shaonian's mouth, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes, mixed with a hint of playfulness, and said slowly.
"Although the strength of the Song family is only stronger than that of the Yin family, it is not weak, but the Song family also has two shortcomings." Shen Yan saw through Cui Shaonian's intentions at a glance, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said heartily.
"First, as you just said, everyone in the world knows that the Song family is a hardcore supporter of the Three Princes, so those competitors of the Three Princes will definitely focus on the Song family, as long as the Song family has any arrangements, these competitors will definitely get the most accurate information as soon as possible, in this way, the people of the Cui family are really suitable to join the White Lotus Sect and take on the heavy responsibility of the three princes who want to beat the shortcut."
"Second, the Cui family has made great achievements in government affairs, but it has no influence in the military, and the cultivation of a generation of children is not achieved overnight, so the Song family also gave up this aspect of training, and joined the White Lotus Sect, which not only involves government affairs, but also military affairs, but this aspect has become a fatal shortcoming of the Song family."
"Lord Shen's speculation is really exquisite, so I don't know if I can also talk about the advantages and shortcomings of the Cui Wang and Yang families." Cui Shaonian's eyes had to show a look of admiration, Shen Yan did not participate in it, nor did he collect any information in this regard, although Cui Shaonian did not have conclusive evidence, but by feeling, Cui Shaonian could be sure that Shen Yan had not done enough homework in advance, everything Shen Yan said was a temporary speculation, and this resourcefulness was indeed better than himself.
"The Yang family is the first family in the world, so there are many pairs of eyes staring, therefore, the Yang family will not easily show its position in the princes' succession. According to the Yang family's previous purpose, it should not send any of their children to join the White Lotus Sect, however, with the changes in the world, the Yang family's position has also undergone some subtle changes, and there are also some differences within the Yang family on this matter, so someone will secretly send Yang Xiuchen to join. The corners of Shen Yan's mouth smiled slightly, revealing a hint of indifference, as if all this was under Shen Yan's control.
"The children of the Yang family have good attainments in both government affairs and military affairs, which is the foundation of the first family in the world, not only the Yang family, but also the Wang family and your Cui family, these old families, also have an extraordinary heritage, both in government affairs and military affairs, there have been outstanding talents, and at the same time, the wisdom of the same generation is also outstanding. The text is like this, although the generalissimo and the sect leader have not met, I think the same is true. ”
"You children of old families always think that the education and knowledge you have received are the best, so you look down on the children of the poor in your bones. However, don't you think it's ridiculous and ironic that you people need to implement whatever strategy you formulate? ”
