Wu Meisheng responded: "Yes, proprietor, an acquaintance from my hometown came to Xiandu with the caravan. He found me and gave me a letter from my father. My father was seriously ill, but there was no one at home." I had extra money for medical treatment, so my father wanted me to bring some money back, so I brought some money and a letter back to my family."
He Tuizhi nodded, and then said: "Where is the letter your father gave you? Is it convenient for me to take a look?"
Wu Meisheng was stunned for a moment, then he nodded. Then he took out a letter from his arms and gave it to He Tuizhi. After He Tuizhi took the letter, he looked at it carefully, and then put the letter He gave it back to Wu Meisheng, and then said to Wu Meisheng: "Mr. Wu, you have been working for me for many years. Do you want me to send someone to your hometown to help your father see a doctor?"
Wu Meisheng was stunned for a moment, then he thought about it, and finally shook his head and said: "Proprietor, let's forget it. It has been some time since this letter was sent. I don't know how my father is doing now. Even if we are now Send the doctor back, I’m afraid it will be too late.”
He Tuizhi nodded. He was just looking for an excuse. In fact, when he saw the letter, he no longer doubted Wu Meisheng, because he could see that the letter was not written today. Okay, but it has been written for a while, which means Wu Meisheng did not lie.
In fact, he didn't know that the letter was prepared by the people of the Blood Killing Sect today. It was just a little old. This was not a difficult task for the disciples of the Blood Killing Sect.
He Tuizhi then said to Wu Meisheng: "Mr. Wu, please sit down." Wu Meisheng thanked him and then sat down. When Wu Meisheng sat down, He Tuizhi said to Wu Meisheng: "Mr. Wu, I think you also know what happened today, right? What do you think about my current situation?"
Wu Meisheng pondered for a moment, and then said: "Proprietor, the current situation can be said to be very unfavorable for the proprietor. And what happened this time, in my opinion, is that your Majesty is driving a wedge between the proprietor and Sima Lang. Because once there is a conflict between the proprietor and Sima Lang, it is impossible for you to unite to check and balance His Majesty. In your Majesty's competition, you will be at a disadvantage. So in my opinion Come on, proprietor, you'd better endure this for the sake of your funeral."
He Tuizhi frowned, and then he said in a deep voice: "Now my position as left prime minister has been taken away by Sima Lang? Do you still want me to endure this?"
When Wu Meisheng heard what He Tuizhi said, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He then said: "Proprietor, it is indeed true. I think you should endure it for a while? Now the proprietor must contact those people, and I will definitely treat you Loyal people? Steady their hearts, as long as those people are still on the side of the proprietor? Then proprietor, no matter whether you are the left prime minister or the right prime minister, no one dares to underestimate the proprietor."
Why retreat for a moment? Then he frowned? Then he said: "Do you think those people will betray me?"
Wu Meisheng said in a deep voice: "Proprietor? What happened at Yingpan Mountain this time is related to the safety of Xiandu. Once Yingpan Mountain really cannot be defended and we don't make the most suitable arrangement, The army of the Shadow Clan will march straight in, and it is very likely that they will arrive at the gate of Xiandu City. It is impossible for the troops of the Twelve Guards and the Four Guards City to stop the Shadow Clan's attack. Therefore, at this time, the proprietor We can't think about how to suppress His Majesty's power, but we must first focus on the safety of the Immortal City. After all, all the ministers and their families in the court are here in the Immortal City. If something happens, They are also the first to be unlucky, so at this time, they will definitely put the preservation of the Immortal Capital as their top priority, so if you, proprietor, are still thinking about suppressing His Majesty at this time, you will not get their support."
After hearing Wu Meisheng's words, He Tuizhi nodded and said: "That's true. This time, even the warrior heroes didn't stand on my side. It seems that they are really afraid. I really don't understand. They There is nothing to be afraid of. The territory at Yingpanshan is easy to defend and difficult to attack. The opponent only has 300,000 people. The number of defenders at Yingpanshan is probably not less than 60,000. Although the ratio of five to one is very high. , but it is not easy for the Shadow Tribe to capture Ying Pan Mountain. If we don’t take advantage of this opportunity to suppress His Majesty, it will be a waste of opportunity."
As soon as He Tuizhi finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from outside: "Master, there is an urgent military situation."
He Tuizhi frowned, but still said: "Come in." The person outside the door responded, then opened the door and walked in, handing a letter to He Tuizhi.
He Tuizhi picked up the letter and glanced at it, then gave it to Wu Meisheng and said, "Mr. Wu, please take a look." Wu Meisheng responded, then took the letter and looked at it carefully. After that, he couldn't help but frowned, and then said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that the first line of defense at Yingpan Mountain would be lost so quickly. In this way, the Shadow Clan people would have a A foothold was established, but the strange thing is that they did not attack the second line of defense, which is a bit weird." As he spoke, he put the letter on He Tuizhi's desk.
He Tuizhi said in a deep voice: "Do they no longer have the ability to attack?"
Wu Meisheng shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Judging from this information, the people sent by the Shadow Clan this time should be their elites. When they attacked the first line of defense in Yingpan Mountain, they did not use It's very long, so the casualties probably weren't very large. In addition, the Shadow Tribe people have always been brave and fearless of death, so their attack probably didn't take much effort. In other words, they still have a chance to attack. Under normal circumstances, they would continue to attack in the hope that they can achieve greater results, but they have not done so now, which is a bit strange."
He Tuizhi nodded, Wu Meisheng also frowned, thought for a moment, and then he suddenly said: "Master, I suspect that the Shadow Clan's attack on Yingpan Mountain is probably a feint attack, and their real target is , possibly other defense zones.”
He Tuizhi was stunned. He didn't understand why Wu Meisheng suddenly said that. This made him a little puzzled, so he looked at Wu Meisheng and said, "Why did you say that, sir?"
Wu Meisheng said solemnly: "Master, Yingpan Mountain is the nearest way to attack the Immortal City. We know that, and the Shadow Clan people also know that they know very well that if they really want to attack the Immortal City from Yingpan Mountain , then they must fight quickly and use the fastest speed to capture Yingpan Mountain. Then the army rushes forward, rushes to the gate of Xiandu City at the fastest speed, and attacks Xiandu. Only then can they possibly break through Xiandu City. All of this requires a quick word."
Having said this, Wu Meisheng paused for a moment, and then said: "But the proprietor, look at it now. When the Shadow Tribe people still had some strength left, they suddenly stopped. They did not attack Yingpan Mountain's second line of defense. , why? Because they have never thought about taking Yingpan Mountain as quickly as possible. They should be very clear about how much we attach great importance to Yingpan Mountain. If they can't take Yingpan Mountain before we can react, , then we will definitely send troops to reinforce Yingpan Mountain, and at the same time, set up defense lines between Yingpan Mountain and Xiandu, making it very difficult for them to take every step forward. In this case, they still stop Down, there is no attack, which is very telling. This shows that they do not really want to attack Yingpanshan. Attacking Yingpanshan is just their way to attract our attention. Their real target should be somewhere else. Which defense zone it is, we don’t know.”
He Tuizhi suddenly stood up, then he looked at Wu Meisheng and said: "It doesn't matter which defense area the Shadow Clan wants to attack. It's not an easy task for them to take over the Immortal Realm. What I'm concerned about now is, How should I use this matter to fight back and let those guys in the court get to know me again."
Wu Meisheng was stunned for a moment, then he thought for a while, and then said: "Proprietor, I think your majesty will still invite the proprietor to come to discuss the matter. The proprietor can directly discuss this in front of everyone. After telling the story, I also suggested that the local armies be prepared to meet the enemy, so that whether they listen to the proprietor or not, the proprietor can move back to the city. They listened to the proprietor, and this is your proprietor. Credit, they don’t listen to you, proprietor. If something like this happens in the future, they will remember your words, proprietor, and this will make them look at you proprietor in a new light.”
He Tuizhi was stunned for a moment, then he nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes, that's exactly it." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a servant outside the door saying: "Sir, your Majesty has summoned you to discuss matters. .”
He Tuizhi's eyes lit up, and then he said, "Okay, I understand." After that, he turned to Wu Meisheng and said, "Sir, please go back and rest first. I have to go to the palace to discuss matters." Wu Meisheng agreed. He shouted, then saluted He Tuizhi, then turned around and left the study.
After Wu Meisheng left, He Tuizhi tidied up his clothes, walked out of the study, and walked out the door. When he reached the door of his mansion, the carriage was ready. Sure enough, there was a chamberlain standing in front of him. As soon as the chamberlain saw He Tuizhi, he immediately saluted He Tuizhi and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please come to discuss matters."
He Tuizhi nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "Let's go." After saying that, he got on the carriage, and the chamberlain could only run beside him. The carriage soon arrived at the Immortal Palace on the ground, and then He Tuizhi He followed the chamberlain and flew directly to the Immortal Palace in the sky, and then went directly to the Immortal Emperor's study.
When He Tuizhi entered the Immortal Emperor's study, everyone else had already arrived, but the study was a bit chaotic now. Everyone was talking quietly, and the Immortal Emperor was sitting behind the desk with an ugly expression. When he saw him After he came in, the Immortal Emperor said: "Right Prime Minister, I heard that you are not feeling well. Are you feeling well now?" When he said this, the Immortal Emperor looked at him with cold eyes. It was obvious that the Immortal Emperor meant what he said. Satirized him.
He Tuizhi was not unusually thick-skinned. He said, "I almost went crazy before because I was worried about the war, but now I am much better."
