"That's right. I'm too tired and out of shape. Otherwise, Master Lu and Wu Erlang can drink from me?"
Sun Lei sat up and drank the bowl of hangover soup in one gulp. His head felt much better instantly.
"I'll sleep a little longer!"
Sun Lei finished drinking the hangover soup, hugged his son and daughter and got into bed. He didn't want to move at all now.
"Don't fall asleep, Military Advisor Wen and the others have been waiting outside for a long time!"
Hua Chan said.
“It’s the first day of the Lunar New Year and I don’t want anyone to get more sleep!”
Sun Lei said helplessly, but he still got up. Wen Huanzhang must have something important to come in such a hurry.
"Commander Wen, what's so urgent?"
Sun Lei came to the front hall and looked at Wen Huanzhang and asked. There were many people coming with him.
"Brother, the situation is happening again in Tokyo!"
Wen Huanzhang took out a piece of information and handed it to Sun Lei.
"What? Give me a title? King of Liang? King of Qi? King of Yan? You really have some ideas! They are already discussing the title... What? You want to marry me a princess?"
Sun Lei read the information and laughed. In the end, it actually said that someone suggested that Princess Yanqing be married to him as his princess, so that they could become a real family.
"These people are capable of talking nonsense!"
Sun Lei looked at Wen Huanzhang and said, a lot of the news above is discussed among the people.
"Brother, it's actually not bad. I heard that Princess Yanqing is very beautiful. She is the most beautiful among Zhao Ji's daughters. She is known as Maode Diji. She is in her 28th year this year..."
Shi Qian said with a smile.
"I think you are tempted!"
Sun Lei glanced at Shi Qian angrily.
"Brother, how dare you, little brother!"
However, Shi Qian saw Hua Chan and Li Shishi coming over with tea trays, and immediately realized that what he said was not the right time, so he sneered and hid behind Wen Huanzhang.
"Brother, this is a conspiracy! That Cui Jing is not simple!"
"Brothers Le He and Ma Lin sent back the news. Cui Jing threatened that if my brother is not satisfied with the title of king, he can increase the number. Not only will he be granted the title of king, he will also be granted the title of me and even the soldiers!"
Wen Huanzhang ignored those joking remarks and looked at Sun Lei and said seriously.
Such a high-profile discussion about awarding awards to everyone in Liangshan is very likely to shake the current united Liangshan.
No one has thought about the days of licking blood from the edge of a knife. Prosperity and wealth are what everyone wants. If the court directly gives them glory and wealth, then why bother licking blood from the edge of a knife?
"It's not simple. I underestimated this person!"
Sun Lei nodded, this move was extremely cruel.
"But Zhao Ji really dares to grant such a title? It's okay to make my brother king. We have so many brothers in Liangshan and they all have high officials. Doesn't that mean that all the people in the court are from Liangshan?"
Zhu Gui said, "Liangshan now has more than a hundred leaders. Sun Lei has been granted the title of king. Everyone is from the first rank to the sixth rank. There are thousands of leaders and officers below, from the sixth rank to the ninth rank. Even the court is not full."
"That's not the way it is calculated. He may not necessarily give substantive official positions. He can just give them to some civil and military officials. They have no substantive rights at all!"
"But when you have this idea, you have already fallen into the enemy's trap, because you already want to accept the recruitment. Even if you don't obey, your determination to fight against the imperial court will be much weaker in the future!"
"Our rebellion is taking a path that cannot be turned back. We must go to the end with one heart. Once we waver and turn back, we will be torn into pieces!"
Wen Huanzhang looked at everyone and said solemnly, most of Liangshan is a wasteland, and the city is not deep. The one thing that is there is brotherly loyalty and a sense of justice, and he does not understand the horror of these conspiracies and tricks in the court.
Seeing Wen Huanzhang's seriousness, everyone stopped laughing. Everyone knew that one's worth and life were at stake, and everyone knew not to joke.
"This move is indeed powerful. In fact, my Liangshan brothers are of the same mind. We all have the same loyalty and will live through life and death together. No one can betray us."
"But the court's sudden surrender can easily sap the fighting spirit of the brothers and make them think that surrender is also a retreat."
Sun Lei nodded and said, Cui Jing's move was indeed vicious. He couldn't even parry it. If he really wanted to force it, it would be counterproductive.
"Brother, I have absolutely nothing to do with you!"
Lu Fang, Guo Sheng and others immediately knelt down, and the others also realized that their laughter just now was extremely inappropriate.
"Brother, damn it, little brother! Damn it!"
Shi Qian kowtows repeatedly.
"Get up, I don't mean to blame you. This is human nature. If you don't want to, how can those soldiers not? As long as people are alive, selfishness is inevitable!"
"Brother, I have one too! You said that Princess Yanqing is so beautiful, brother, I am also tempted! So it doesn't have to be like this!"
Sun Lei helped Shi Qian up and spoke, completely ignoring Master Li's cannibalistic look from behind.
"It seems that Cui Jing had planned this for a long time. He knew very well that the Song Dynasty could not defeat me in terms of force, but I also have weaknesses. After all, Liangshan had just risen. Even if he captured Yanyun and destroyed the Liao Kingdom, he still had a strong foundation. It is thin and cannot be as deeply rooted in people's hearts as Zhao Song."
"If Zhao Song promised to be a high-ranking official, rich in salary, rich and beautiful, it would be really hard for people not to care about him."
After sitting down, Sun Lei said helplessly that Cui Jing had grasped this point, so he had to offer conditions without a bottom line.
"Fortunately, hundreds of officials in Tokyo are opposed to it. Those people don't want Liangshan to be recruited, and they don't want their power to be dispersed."
Jiang Jing said with lingering fear, if he was really promised to be given a fourth or fifth grade household official, it would be really hard for him not to think too hard.
"Brother, we must be careful! If Zhao Ji agrees, the eyes of the world will be focused on us in Liangshan. If Zhao Ji offers extremely generous conditions and we don't agree, I'm afraid we will be accused of being greedy!"
Wen Huanzhang said, now Xiao Jiasui is in charge of Daming Mansion, Xu Guanzhong and Li Zhu are in charge of Yanyun, and he and Zhu Wu have returned to Liangshanbo. As a military advisor, he must make these things clear.
People say it's scary, but these four words also apply to Liangshan, especially now that Liangshan has regained Yanyun and destroyed the Liao Kingdom, and is famous all over the world.
"It's okay if we don't deal with it, right?"
Sun Lei asked.
"If we allow rumors to spread, I'm afraid it will be even more detrimental to us!"
Wen Huanzhang said.
"In this case, why don't we also spread rumors? What do you think of the Second Saint's arrival?"
Sun Lei said.
"The Second Saint is coming!"
When Wen Huanzhang thought about it, he naturally knew what these four words meant. Wu Zetian was equal to Tang Gaozong, and later became the first female emperor in history.
"Zhao Ji wants to make conditions, so we must bargain. The price is too low! I am the Monkey King, and I should be on par with Zhao Ji!"
Sun Lei said with a smile.
"My little brother understands, let's make arrangements now!"
Wen Huanzhang was overjoyed. Sun Lei's words inspired him a lot, so he started with the nickname Monkey King. Equaling the sky, it naturally has to be level with the sky and on an equal footing with Zhao Ji. Wang Jue is not enough. , starting from here, it is very natural and will not give the world the impression that the lion is greedy.
"Has my brother already thought of this level?"
Wen Huanzhang suddenly had an idea. Could it be that these four words, Monkey King, were prepared for this moment?
