Chapter 425: Rebellion in the enemy camp
Jiu Gongzi was born in a big family and received the most orthodox Confucian education, but he will not be intimidated by the mysterious aura on Cui Geng's body, let alone think that Cui Geng can be more clever than himself.
He chuckled lightly and said disdainfully: "Hmph, the dead duck has a hard mouth!" Killing people to pay for their lives, debts to pay back, what other solutions can there be besides paying for lives with lives? ”
Cui Geng ignored him, but beckoned to He Yongchang and said, "General He, you come here, this official can only tell you secretly." It's not very spiritual to say it in public. ”
He Yongchang was quite interested, and came over with his ear and said, "What is the method?" ”
"We're like this, we're ...... like this"
Cui Geng's voice was extremely low, and only the two of them could hear it.
Then, He Yongchang's face was wonderful.
He frowned at first, then his face softened slightly, and then he raised his eyebrows and his eyes sparkled...... In the end, he was smiling again.
The nine princes are stupid, could it be that Cui Geng really persuaded He Yongchang with his three-inch incorruptible tongue? How did he do it?
What made him even more dumbfounded was still to come.
He Yongchang bowed slightly, and smiled at Cui Gengyu: "Cui is a good book, then let's make a decision." ”
After a pause, he said, "There is no problem with the last general, but on the Qin family's side, this ...... This ......"
Cui Geng waved his hand and said, "Do it accordingly." ”
"That's a good dare, so that the last general can also have an explanation for his wife's family." He Yongchang was so excited that his hands frustrated.
Then, he beckoned Qin Meng over and whispered a few words, but people only vaguely heard the sentence "People can't be resurrected after death", and the others couldn't be heard clearly.
As for Qin Meng? Although he was not as excited as He Yongchang, his gaze at Cui Geng suddenly eased and said, "But it's up to my brother-in-law to decide." ”
The discussion has been decided, He Yongchang clenched his fists and arched his hands, and said: "I disturbed Cui's work today, and I will retire first, and visit Cui's work another day." ”
"General He, please!"
Seeing that the situation was going down, Jiu Gongzi couldn't hold it back, this was not just a matter of today's plan failure, but a problem of He Yongchang getting out of his control! What, just the "last general" came to the "last general", as if He Yongchang had become Cui Geng's subordinate, why didn't he respect himself or Sun Wanrong so much?
The Ninth Prince got up and stopped each other and said, "General He go slowly!" Didn't we say that we wanted Cui Shushu to announce the surrender of the Khitan in public? How did you change your mind? ”
He Yongchang was full of confidence since he got Cui Geng's conditions, and said: "That's right, He has changed his mind." Moreover, I'm not afraid to tell you that if anyone dares to let Cui Shu surrender in public, he will be an enemy of my surname He, or an enemy of the Falling Jin Department! ”
"I ......"
Jiu Gongzi was choked by him and rolled his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Why? ”
"Hehe, the secret of heaven must not be revealed!"
After speaking, He Yongchang Shi Ran greeted Qin Meng, and walked away like a proud rooster.
Okay, turn your hands into clouds, cover your hands for rain, solve the problem in just a few words, and deserve to be the world-famous Cui Qingtian!
Although Sun Wanrong didn't know how Cui Geng did it, it was good to make the ninth prince deflated. He said happily: "Qin Yong's matter has been satisfactorily resolved, I wonder if there is anything else in the Ninth Prince?" Or...... Have a light meal at Ben Khan's place? ”
"No...... No, I'm going to say goodbye. ”
The bitter masters of the family were gone, and the ninth prince had to leave with Fan Guanglie and Sun Yangao with a disgraced face.
Fan Guanglie deliberately behaved in front of the ninth prince, and before going out, he suddenly turned around and said: "Cui Geng, and let you be proud for a while, the days will be long in the future." I don't believe it, every time you can be in a hurry, and save the day. ”
Cui Geng said meaningfully: "The days are still long? Not necessarily. If there is any means, it is better for Fan to join the army as soon as possible, so as not to regret it for the rest of his life. ”
……
……
From that day on, the courtyard where Cui Geng was under house arrest became lively, and from time to time people brought heavy gifts, spoke kindly, and came to visit with a smile on their faces.
There are nobles from various Khitan departments here, as well as ordinary Khitan soldiers, but without exception, the gifts they bring are absolutely very valuable to themselves.
In this way, Cui Geng, a prisoner of the Khitan, became the richest man in the Khitan in less than a month, and the wealth he accumulated was enough to make Sun Wanrong smack his tongue.
What made him even more smacked was that when Cui Geng gave an order, no one asked him for instructions, and someone from the Fenwen Department handed over most of those belongings to Zhou Jun intact and transported them back to Luoyang for Cui Geng.
What's going on with this Nima? Is this Khitan listening to Ben Khan or Cui Geng?
Sun Wanrong carefully inquired about the ins and outs of the matter, so he didn't get his nose crooked, and hurriedly sent Li Kaigu to negotiate with Cui Geng.
Li Kaigu stared at Cui Geng's eyes and said in a deep voice: "Sun Yangao is dead. Just last night, he was beheaded by a gang of horse thieves, and none of his family was spared. ”
"Oh? Is it? Cui Geng was not surprised by this result, and muttered: "Good is rewarded with good and evil is rewarded with evil, it's not that it is not reported, the time has not come." He Mingyuan's spirit in the sky can also be blinded. ”
Seeing that Cui Geng did not deny it, Li Kaigu simply went straight to the point and said: "It is worthy of Cui Qingtian, who is famous all over the world, in a few words, he turned bad things into good things, why did Mingyuan take revenge." ”
Cui Geng smiled and said, "Oh? Could it be that General Li heard something? ”
"Nonsense, it's not a secret at all now, how could General Ben not have heard of it? To tell you the truth, I came today, one for private matters and the other for official business. The official matter is that the Khan asks you Cui Shuxingshi for his guilt. ”
Cui Geng didn't care about the "Khan's questioning", and said unhurriedly: "What about private matters? ”
Li Kaigu's face softened, and he smiled and said, "Cui Shushu, you are not kind." Although I captured you, it was a battle between two countries, and they did everything they could. Think about it, how will I treat you along the way? Now that there is such a good thing, how can you forget about me? ”
"So, General Lee wants something like that, too? Well said, well said. ”
As he spoke, Cui Geng picked up the wolf pen on a few cases, wrote a few lines of big characters crookedly, and stamped his big seal of "The Prince's Left Prison Gate Leads the Deputy of the Mansion", handed it to Li Kaigu and said: "General Li take a look, are you still satisfied?" ”
Li Kaigu took this thing, looked at it carefully, and suddenly felt extremely relaxed in his heart, sighed, and said: "Now it can be regarded as attacking and retreating, but it's just ...... Some of them can't stand the Khan. ”
What did Cui Geng give to Li Kaigu? It is a letter of appointment from the Urban Management Bureau of the Prince's Left Prison Gate.
What is written above is that on a certain day in a certain year, a certain month, someone was inspired by Cui Geng and decided to abandon the darkness and surrender to the light, return to Da Zhou, and become a small temporary worker under the Urban Management Bureau.
Now the Khitan is a big problem for the Great Zhou, so this person was ordered by Cui Geng not to return to Luoyang to take office, but to lurk in the Khitan army, probing the reality of the enemy army, and ready to fight anyway at any time.
In fact, from He Yongchang to ordinary Khitan soldiers, Cui Gengfa has such a letter of appointment.
Of course, the price of this letter of appointment is also different depending on the status.
For ordinary Khitan soldiers, it was enough to hand over some belongings. As for the Khitan nobles, they have to do something for Cui Geng, such as transporting these belongings back to Cui Geng, such as making it convenient, arranging for Cui Geng to meet with the people of the wall dragon, and even ...... Kill Sun Yangao.
Fan Guanglie was the liaison between the Tang Army and the Khitan Army, and the involvement was too big, and no one dared to do it. Sun Yangao's status is not high, so he doesn't have so many scruples.
The reason why Cui Geng's letter of appointment is so easy to sell is that his family knows his own affairs, and the people of insight among the Khitan people have long been aware of the predicament of their own clan and have begun to think about the way back.
Besides, just a letter of appointment doesn't mean that you have really betrayed your clan, just be prepared. So, they buy the letter of appointment without any pressure.
He Yongchang, the chief of the Falling Pound Department, is one of these "people of insight".
Cui Geng used five blank letters of appointment in exchange for him not pursuing Qin Yong's death.
As for He Yongchang's own letter of appointment, I'm sorry, his status is too high, so he can only exchange Sun Yangao's head.
After a little consideration, He Yongchang felt that this business was done, and Sun Yangao had no friendship with him, and if he died, he would die.
The Khitan won, and this letter of appointment is a piece of waste paper.
If the Khitan is defeated, he can use this letter of appointment to get away with the crime, and even try to win the position of Khitan Khan - Wu Zetian can't kill nearly a million Khitans, right? In the end, it is necessary to implement the rule of restraint. He has a high status, and he abandoned the dark and bright people early to become the khan, who else deserves this position?
It's just not a matter of publicity, and it's not very confidential. Although He Yongchang didn't take the initiative to spread it, he couldn't stop his family from telling his relatives and friends. One to ten, ten to hundred, in the end, Cui Geng made a big business.
Sun Wanrong knew the drawbacks of this matter, the national strength of the Khitan was far inferior to that of the Great Zhou, and if there was a way out, who would be willing to fight to the death? In addition, didn't you say before that Cui Geng wanted to help him deal with the falling catty? Why did he sell the letter of appointment again in the blink of an eye, does he want to destroy the pendant? And the most important thing is that this letter of appointment is available to everyone, but he Sun Wanrong can't!
That's why Li Kaigu came to Xingshi to ask for guilt.
Li Kaigu got the letter of appointment, and felt that he was much closer to Cui Geng, and said: "For these three questions of the Khan, I don't know how Cui Shushu is going to reply?" ”
