If you are not afraid to mention conditions, you are afraid to be silent.

Quan and Hui were in high spirits, and Quan Taifeng immediately asked: "What is the premise?"

Niu Youdao: "The two sides have gathered heavy troops on the border to confront each other for so long, what does it mean to delay the war?"

Quan Taifeng still replied: "An all-out war is related to the fortunes of the country, so naturally we will not fight a war that we are not sure of, and we will only wait for the internal turmoil of the Yan Kingdom to reach a certain point, and it will be the time to take advantage of the situation to attack." ”

The situation is clear, Niu Youdao used to think so, after seeing Gao Jiancheng, he realized that it was not the case at all, a group of secular people in power are using the overall situation to build momentum, and a group of monks are playing monkeys, to put it bluntly, they are competing with the monks for the right to speak, and they can't win the monks, they can only come to the yin.

Of course, he is also in the chaos and will not break it, "Brother said the key, when the internal turmoil of the Yan Kingdom reaches a certain point, but as far as I know, the Yan Kingdom is not completely without the strength to counterbalance the rebellion." ”

Hui Qingping frowned, "Brother, what do you want to say?"

Niu Youdao: "I don't want to be a wall grass, but at this point, there is no need to say that hypocrisy, I can't gamble with the lives of so many people in Nanzhou, I must see a little sign of favor before I can raise troops, otherwise it will be difficult for me to convince the people below, after all, it is a matter of everyone's interests, there is still a big Zen mountain in Nanzhou staring at me." Brother, eldest sister, the strength of the rebels within the Yan Kingdom is not enough, I hope you can force out the counterattack potential within the Yan Kingdom, so that I can send troops. ”

Quan and Hui glanced at each other, and Quan Taifeng asked, "What do you mean, what kind of force?"

Niu Youdao: "Let the rebels go all out, and then capture one or two more states, forcing Yan Guo to go all out." This has two benefits for me. First, I can observe how much potential Yan Guo has, and whether I can send troops in Nanzhou is also related to whether I can convince Dachan Mountain. Second, the rebels contained the absolute power within the Yan State, which made it easier for our Nanzhou army to break through. Only when I have done this will I dare to raise troops, otherwise I would not have been able to gamble on such a thing. ”

The two were thoughtful and had to admit that standing in each other's position was a very thoughtful thing.

Quan Taifeng: "Brother, how can Yan Kingdom have any potential, the princes' forces are all obvious, you have too much heart." ”

Niu Youdao: "I don't think the princes of all walks of life may not have the strength to exterminate the rebels, but they can't work together, so this is not a lot of heart, but a safe one." Brother, eldest sister, as long as this premise is achieved, I will send troops, and it is useless to say anything else. ”

At this point, there is really no need to say anything more, so the matter is settled, and everything is premised on the situation orientation.

In fact, this is also the safest way, which side of the situation is favorable, it is common sense to fall to which side, otherwise it is useless to make a promise of red lips and white teeth when it comes to such a big matter, and there are still visible benefits.

Before the two left, Niu Youdao brought up the old matter again, "If you say 10 million, only give me 5 million, you may not be a little unauthentic in what you do." ”

Quan Taifeng couldn't cry or laugh, and Hui Qingping also sighed: "I said brother, we can't just give it if you make a price all over the sky, this is not our money, and we can't be the master, five million is already a lot, how many monks have never seen so much money in their lives, you can be content." You also got money, tens of thousands of truckloads of grain, and what are you not satisfied with, you can't be too greedy. ”

"Okay, okay, look at your unhappy face, you don't need to send it. Quan Taifeng raised his hand to stop, not letting the cow have a way to send it.

Guan Fangyi took the initiative to send off the guests on behalf of the guests and sent the two out of the villa.

When he returned to the villa, he found Niu Youdao standing on the high pavilion, and the pestle sword looked at the sky with an expressionless face.

She also went up to the attic, and saw his back alone in the wind, the hem of his robe fluttering in the wind.

The things in front of her, the things just now, although she has been by Niu Youdao's side, but she is becoming more and more incomprehensible, I feel that Niu Youdao seems to be a little different from before, she still has room for guessing what Niu Youdao did before, and now seeing that the two sides have explained it thoroughly, she still can't figure out what Niu Youdao wants to do.

As soon as the strife and wrestling of the countries appeared, the world was turned upside down, and I don't know how many families were ruined, and I don't know how many monks were panicked, afraid that they would be crushed by this general trend. And the person in front of him seems to be driving a small boat carrying a group of people in the stormy waves, and those huge ships are side by side in the huge waves, fighting bravely and moving forward despite difficulties.

There was a mournful sound in the villa, and the back in front of her made her inexplicably feel a sense of tragedy from nowhere.

seemed to know that she was coming, and when she got closer, she asked, "Zhuang Hong is playing the piano again?"

Guan Fangyi: "Yes." ”

Niu Youdao shook his head slightly, "Complain when you are not free, and complain when you are free, this woman will never be satisfied." He sighed casually, and handed over the five money bank bills in his hand.

She liked this, so she tucked it into her sleeve as soon as she got it.

Niu Youdao gave a sentence, "You go to Fucheng in person, pick up Meng Shuai, pay attention to confidentiality, and remind the prince not to let outsiders know." ”

Guan Fangyi immediately complained, "I keep saying that the old lady is the first beauty in the world, and what she says is better than what she sings, but in fact, she treats the old lady as an errand runner." ”

Niu Youdao: "You are not the kind of person who only knows how to be beautiful and not have a brain, and those who can work hard." In addition, three of these five golden tickets were given to the prince. ”

Guan Fangyi was suddenly unhappy, "Three sheets, my money, why, didn't you give him so much grain and grass?"

Niu Youdao: "Soon, the prince will have a lot of money, and he has three million gold coins in hand, which can solve a lot of troubles for him, and can also make things a lot smoother." ”

Guan Fangyi realized from these words that there was a big change, so she only muttered, and then left quickly......

When Meng Shan Ming arrived, it was already night, and he landed directly in Niu Youdao's yard.

When he set out from Nanzhou City, he also did it quite secretively, first quietly sent Meng Shanming out of the city in a carriage, and then took it away from outside the city.

Niu Youdao, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward politely and saluted, "It's really a sin to let Meng Shuai run back and forth." ”

Today's Nanzhou, for him, Meng Shanming is a strategic existence, worthy of his sincere courtesy and respect.

Meng Shanming hurriedly said humbly: "Dao Ye said this, which made the old man embarrassed. ”

didn't be too pretentious, Niu Youdao invited him into his room again, and motioned to Guan Fangyi, who was pushing a wheelchair, to pour a cup of tea for Meng Shanming.

Niu Youdao sat across the table opposite Meng Shanming and asked, "All those grains have been collected by the prince, right?"

The grain cart is broken all the way, and the grain naturally falls all the way and needs to be collected.

"The things that fill the stomach are bigger than the sky, there will be no mistakes, they are all collected. Meng Shanming confirmed that he was reassured, and then asked, "Does Dao Ye not plan to return the grain to the imperial court?"

Niu Youdao said with a smile: "We are not rebels, we are also part of the imperial court, it is better in our hands than in the hands of outsiders." ”

Meng Shanming smiled bitterly, "Can the three major factions be easily spared?"

"At least don't dare to do anything to me now, as long as we are proven right afterwards, we will naturally pass when we meet and laugh and enmity. Niu Youdao also gave him a reassuring word, and then went to the point, "During the day, people from Han Song came to me again. ”

Meng Shanming's face was slightly condensed, and he asked tentatively, "Persuade Dao Ye to raise troops?"

Niu Youdao nodded slightly and smiled.

Meng Shanming's heartstrings tightened slightly, "What does Dao Ye want?"

Niu Youdao didn't hide it from him, and told him in detail about the negotiations with Quan and Hui.

Meng Shanming's cheeks tightened when he heard this, "Could it be that Dao Ye really wants to make Nanzhou rebel?"

Niu Youdao shook his head: "The prince is the royal family of Dayan, and Meng Shuai is the minister of the humerus of Dayan, how can he have his own reason to oppose himself, and it is only an expedient measure to promise them, the purpose is to let the rebels persecute the court... If you don't let the court be helpless, how can you come to beg us to wait, and how can you let the prince justifiably order the rebel army?"

Meng Shanming bowed his head slightly thoughtfully, and suddenly frowned and shook his head, "I'm afraid that the imperial court will not be so easy to relax, once the situation is critical, the three major factions should gather the power of the princes at all costs to encircle and suppress, and it is impossible to hand over the power of counterinsurgency to us until they are forced to do so." It's just that even if the power of the princes is gathered, but each has selfish intentions, whoever is commanded is worried that he will suffer, this battle is difficult to fight, and the loss is the strength of the Yan State. Alas!" He could only sigh.

Niu Youdao clenched his fists and knocked on the table, "Meng Shuai is reasonable, so I can't give the princes a chance to friction with each other, which is also the purpose of my invitation to Meng Shuai." ”

"Oh!" Meng Shanming's gaze came, "I would like to listen to the Taoist master." ”

Niu Youdao: "Five-way reinforcements, Xu Jingyue, the assassin of Gongzhou, An Xianzhao of Tuzhou, Su Qitong of Haozhou, Xin Mao, and Zhang Hu, the assassin of Changzhou, these five people are all the old department of Mengshuai. Niu wants to ask Meng Shuai to write five letters, and I will arrange for someone to deliver them to the five of them as soon as possible. ”

Meng Shanming was puzzled: "Does Dao Ye want me to persuade them to work together?" Behind them, there are too many things mixed up now, but I am afraid that they themselves are also involuntarily, and my letter should not play a role." ”

Niu Youdao smiled, "It depends on what Meng Shuai writes." ”

Meng Shanming was puzzled, "What does Dao Ye want me to write?"

The corners of Niu Youdao's mouth carried a touch of treachery: "Meng Shuai wrote in the letter that he is willing to lead the people of Nanzhou to go on the expedition, and he is willing to quell the rebellion for Dayan at any cost, and it is enough to write this." ”

Meng Shanming was still a little confused, "Is this useful?"

Niu Youdao: "Meng Shuai said that there are too many dopings behind them, and in the final analysis, it is those high-level people within the three major factions who want to keep the power in their hands." When the five of them received this letter, they would surely let the people behind it know. Meng Shuai thought about it, the people behind them were suffering helplessly, if there was a Nanzhou willing to pay the price to quell the chaos, I am afraid that they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and some people were willing to do it for the dead ghosts to calm the chaos, can they still be expected to gather their strength to pay the price? It must be to avoid the war, so that the court will be defeated again and again!"
