When Qianmian walked into Dayue's Zuo Xiang's mansion under the leadership of Zhang Jian, he had already become a mature and steady middle-aged man, and when he stepped into Zhang Ning's study, Zhang Ning was buried in the thick pile of official documents, waving a book. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Father, the envoy of the Taiping Army has arrived." Zhang Jian whispered.

Zhang Ning didn't look up, just hummed, waved his hand, Zhang Jian asked Qianmian to sit down on one side, but he gently withdrew from the study, stood at the door of the study, covered the door, and acted as a doorman himself.

The current Taiping Army still hangs the flag of the Yue Kingdom, but everyone knows what is going on, at this juncture, Zhang Ning is unwilling to tell the truth, and chooses the dead of night, and quietly brings people into the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion by Zhang Jian. Because of Chen Ci's matter, the emperor has become suspicious now, in fact, even Zhang Ning himself doesn't dare to trust anyone easily, even Chen Ci is a foreshadowing laid by the Luo family, so in the entire Dayue Dynasty, how many Luo people have not been uprooted in the secret, no one can say.

After all, the Luo family is a thousand-year-old family handed down from the Tang Dynasty together with the royal Wu family, and its profound heritage is chilling.

From this point of view, there is nothing wrong with the emperor taking advantage of the invasion of Qi to kill the Luo family, and the Luo family deliberately buried a nail like Chen Ci many years ago, and his disobedience is already obvious.

Qianmian sat there, no one served tea, and there was no greeting, and Zhang Ning, who was behind the big case, seemed to treat him as air and didn't pay attention to him at all. Instead, they are still there to review official documents.

This kind of method of dealing with small people by big people, if it were changed before, Qianmian would really not know how to deal with it, but since the Taiping army began to win one after another, his status has also risen step by step, and he is already familiar with this set, because he has often dealt with his subordinates like this.

This kind of silent pressure can sometimes be more heavy than words.

However, in terms of the current situation of both sides, Zhang Ning's move seems a little ridiculous. In Qianmian's view, the Yue Ting is now full of holes, on the one hand, the Taiping Army is eyeing the enemy, on the other hand, the Luo Yishui army is pressing, and the Qin people who occupy Kaiping County are now staring at the big battle between Luo Yishui and Yue Ting with wide eyes, and it is really not an exaggeration to describe the current Yue Ting with crumbling.

A force that was on the rise, facing the declining aristocracy, Qian Mian was not only not knocked down by Zhang Ning's silent pressure, but looked at the new Zuo Xiang who assisted Emperor Yue in single-handedly destroying the powerful Luo family.

It looks like a white-faced scholar, a few strands of long beard are neatly trimmed, meticulous, dignified, and the wrinkles on the forehead are obvious, it seems that this left minister is not easy at all.

Of course, a guy like this, who doesn't seem to be harmless from the outside, is often the kind of devil who has the deepest city and kills without seeing blood. If you think about how Rock's was uprooted, you can understand the power of the person in front of you.

However, the higher the position, the heavier the responsibility, and now the first assistant of the Yue country is really not so easy to be. Zhang Ning, who took charge of the power as he wished, is now afraid that he is also in a mess, if he does not deal with it well, this left minister will probably become the last left minister of Dayue.

With a long breath, Zhang Ning put the pen on the pen stand, raised his head, rubbed his fingers, looked at Qianmian, as if he suddenly remembered that there was this person in front of him, and nodded slightly.

"What kind of position do you serve in the Taiping Army?" The tone was very low, and the speed of speech was extremely slow, as if it was popping out word by word.

"Lord Zhang, I didn't hold a public office in the Taiping Army, and this time, I only came on behalf of General Qin, and I can be regarded as General Qin's special envoy!" Qianmian smiled, and did not stand up and salute him as Zhang Ning imagined.

A trace of anger flashed between his eyebrows, but he was suppressed in an instant, seeing this scene, Qianmian sneered in his heart, the grasshopper after the autumn, why can't it be a few days away, and you still want to play majestic in front of me?

"I'm very short of time, there are a few ministers who want to come to see me next, so you don't have to waste time, what Qin Feng sent you to do, just say it!" Zhang Ning looked at Qianmian, and a trace of disgust flashed in his eyes.

Qianmian laughed: "Zhang Xiang, I think our conversation today will be very important, those officials who are going to come to visit, I don't think you need to meet them, because they can't solve the crisis you are facing now, they can't do anything except make trouble for you." ”

"Crisis? Alarmist! Da Yue is indeed a little difficult now, but whether it is Luo Yishui or others, it is just a disease of scabies, and it will be exterminated by the imperial court in a blink of an eye. Zhang Ning sneered.

"Really?" Qianmian shrugged his shoulders, "In that case, I would like to ask, let's not talk about Luo Yishui, if you have this attitude towards our Taiping army, then if we are now marching towards Zhengyang County, I don't know how Zhang Xiang will respond?" Now that the imperial court can get its hands on it, there are probably only 50,000 tiger troops left, right? How many people are you going to send to Zhengyang County? Ten thousand or twenty thousand? ”

With a bang, Zhang Ning slapped the table: "A group of bandits, dare to speak in front of me?" ”

Qianmian narrowed his eyes and leaned back slightly, "Zhang Xiang, in front of us, you don't have to bluff, what is the situation in Yue Ting now, you know, Luo Yishui knows, we also know, if it weren't for that, I'm afraid you wouldn't see me, right?" If you're always in this way, then there's really nothing to talk about between us! To give you a suggestion, I don't know if Zhang Xiang wants to hear it? ”

"Tell me about it!" was forced by a thousand faces, and Zhang Ning's attitude softened unconsciously.

"Zhang Xiang, if you don't regard our Taiping Army as an equal negotiation partner, I'm afraid our dialogue will not be able to continue, we have a choice, and you, the emperor who embraced you, have no choice, now our army is stationed in the Mengshan camp, where to go, but it depends on our conversation today, I think you also know it in your heart, otherwise you won't see me." But it would be ridiculous for you to try to overwhelm me with something inexplicable. The Taiping Army has today, but it was not won by bluffing, but fought with a knife and a gun. Thousand Faces said coldly.

After staring at him for a long time, Zhang Ning nodded slowly, "Okay, good, a guy with an unknown surname has such a bearing, no wonder the Taiping Army can have today's situation." Say, what does Qin Feng want to do? ”

"It's very simple, our Taiping Army is ready to contribute a little strength to the imperial court to assist you in dealing with Luo Yishui." A thousand faces.

Zhang Ning basked slightly, "Luo Yishui stayed in your Taiping Army for several years, and then left calmly, you can't trust me when you say this." ”

"When Luo Yishui was in the Taiping Army, he was still a fool, in our opinion, he was just a good thug, but now that he has recovered his memory, it is completely different."

"I don't see any reason for you to help us and not help Luo Yishui, now in terms of momentum, Luo Yishui has completely overshadowed the imperial court." Zhang Ning sat down slowly and asked rhetorically.

"This is very simple, in our opinion, Luo Yishui has no future at all, trading with him, in the end, it will be empty, and we won't get anything, our Taiping Army has a thin foundation, but we can't stand the toss, we move once, we must get the reward we want." Thousand Faces laughed.

"You're not optimistic about Luo Yishui? Think the court can win? Zhang Ning's eyes lit up, this was the first time he had heard a positive evaluation of the imperial court from the outside.

"Not necessarily. But we haven't forgotten behind Luo Yishui, the people of the Qin State are still gearing up! At that time, the Qin people will definitely come to fight the autumn wind, if the Qin people finally gain a big profit, it will not be any good for our Taiping army, because in comparison, we are still more willing to deal with you! Qianmian laughed unscrupulously, and the meaning of these words was full of disrespect for Yue Ting and Zhang Ning. It sounds like he is afraid of the Qin people, and he doesn't care about Yue Ting.

Zhang Ning's face turned a little blue. Take a deep breath so that you don't have a seizure.

"How is Qin Feng going to help us?"

"We are ready to march into Yeongpyeong-gun. If our Taiping army did not miscalculate, the imperial court will choose to fight to the death with Luo Yishui in Zhongping County, and after we enter Yongping County, we will attack Luo Yishui from the flank, cooperate with the imperial court tiger army, and strive to defeat Luo Yishui at the lowest cost and the fastest speed. "And I can tell Zhang Xiang that at this time, our army has been mobilized." ”

"You want to occupy Yongping County?" Zhang Ning's eyes were on fire, and he said angrily.

"Zhang Xiang, we don't attack Zhengyang County, but go to Yongping County, which is poorer, which has already shown the greatest sincerity. If we attack Zhengyang County at this time, there is nothing you can do. Yes, the reward we want is Yongping County, Zhang Xiang, you have to see the form clearly, even if we defeat Luo Yishui, I am afraid that we will lose a lot, and when the time comes, in the face of the Qin people, we must both watch and help each other, and support each other in order to keep the Qin army out of Zhongping County, so that they dare not take a step forward. Therefore, our cooperation will still be very long-term, because neither of us is the opponent of the Qin people now. A thousand faces analyzed. What's more, our Taiping Army has also hung the banner of Dayue so far, and the angels of the imperial court have come to our territory, and we have also received them warmly. At least on the surface, Da Yue will still be a whole, right? ”

"And what about after that?" Zhang Ning raised his voice.

"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?" Qianmian laughed: "Zhang Xiang, doesn't it seem a little naïve for you to ask me this question?" (To be continued.) )
