"And King Yan also cares about this younger brother. Even if he wants to provoke, it will be to provoke the relationship between King Yan and King Wu." Liu Ji said with a smile: "Before that, you might as well try to lean in to King Wu."
Yang Xian was stunned, and then he understood what Liu Ji meant, "You want me to increase King Wu's power. If one day King Wu shakes his arms and everyone in the civil and military dynasty agrees, then King Wu will He will become a thorn in the side of everyone.”
"Yes, at that time, your Majesty will naturally find a way to disintegrate King Wu's power without you taking any action.
In His Majesty's eyes, the Prince is the only one, do you understand? "Liu Ji stroked the short beard on his chin.
"Listening to Brother Chengyi's words is better than ten years of studying!" Yang Xian stood up in a hurry and bowed respectfully: "If everyone becomes a member of King Wu's party, I can still fish in troubled waters and attack the Huaixi lineage.
Or, use the name of King Wu to suppress the Huaixi lineage! "
"Not bad." Liu Ji nodded.
Yang Xian was also smiling at this time and no longer looked sad as before.
He thought to himself, if Hu Guoyong knew that he was attached to King Wu, he would probably be shocked, right?
At that time, he can naturally influence Hu Guoyong through King Wu.
...
At this time, the news of the great victory had spread throughout the capital. When the people heard it, they were all happy and excited. What's more, they celebrated by beating gongs, drums, and hats.
The people spontaneously went out of their homes to celebrate this moment of great victory. Especially in a few days, King Wu would personally escort the prisoners of war back to Beijing and stage a prisoner sacrifice. Everyone was extremely excited.
Some elderly and oppressed people even knelt down and cried bitterly, "The dark clouds weighing on our people have finally been blown away!"
As for the Yingtian Chamber of Commerce, Shen Dabao called over all the people who borrowed the boat, "You all know the news. This time His Highness won a great victory. Those who borrowed the boat will not only get the boat rental, but also a certain amount of dividends.
Although His Highness's letter did not say how much it was, it would certainly not be less.
Secondly, some ships were damaged during this battle, and we will compensate you at a premium.
Finally, Mr. Shen thanked everyone for your contribution on behalf of Prince Wu’s Mansion! "
Everyone's face was bright red, "His Royal Highness King Wu kept it secret from us. We didn't expect to borrow the boat to fight against the Meng Yuan people.
If I had known this earlier, I would have supported it even if I tried to sell it! "
"Yes, it is my duty to expel Meng Yuan. I don't know what others think, but my ship does not require dividends or rent, and there is no need to compensate for damage!"
As soon as these words came out, many people echoed, "I don't want mine either!"
"We, the merchants, should be loyal to our country. We will take this kind of money, but we will have no seeds for having a son!"
Shen Dabao looked at the excited people below and felt very emotional in his heart. Who said that merchants have no loyalty?
If anyone dares to say such things again in the future, he will slap him in the face.
“Prince Wu’s Mansion appreciates everyone’s kindness, but it’s worth it, and you’ll have to give what’s due.
Moreover, there will be no shortage of places for you to open the sea.
Let’s all wait for the good news! Shen Dabao cupped his hands and said, "Shen still has a lot of things to deal with, so I'll excuse you!" "
When he left, everyone immediately started talking.
Everyone said that King Wu was righteous, which was quite interesting.
There are boat rentals, dividends, quotas, and compensation for damaged boats according to the price. Where can I find such a good thing?
To put it bluntly, for the sake of quota, it doesn't matter even if all the ships are destroyed.
Besides, going to sea is inherently risky, and this is something everyone agrees on.
"Everyone, the King of Wu has expanded his territory thousands of miles and defeated Yingchang. Should we express our gratitude?"
"What does it mean?"
"Let's hire a lion dance troupe, and then a few opera troupes, and hold it for three days and three nights, so that all the people can enjoy themselves."
"This is good, I'll pay you a hundred taels!"
"I'll pay two hundred taels!"
After a while, several thousand taels of silver were collected, and everyone happily went to invite people.
Then there were lion dance troupes and opera troupes on the streets, and the sadness of moving the capital was blown away.
...
"Brother, something happened, something big happened!" Zhang De hurried into the palace.
Zhang Cheng frowned, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong on the front line?"
"Brother, it's broken, that one is broken..."
"What broke? Did your wife's water break?"
"No, no, Yingchang, the city of Yingchang has been destroyed!" Zhang De gritted his teeth and said: "Our spies said that Yingchang has been captured by Daye, and everyone in the city has been captured, including Polo Timur. , the little emperor, and two queen mothers!"
"What did you say?" Zhang Cheng's eyes were full of disbelief, and he grabbed his collar, "Is the news accurate?"
"This is an urgent report from the scout." Zhang De handed over the urgent report in his hand.
Zhang Cheng looked at the urgent report and was extremely dissatisfied. Why was the urgent report not sent to him as the emperor as soon as possible, but to Zhang De?
What if Zhang De deliberately concealed it?
He suppressed his dissatisfaction and kept this matter in mind. Now was not the time to care about it.
He took out the urgent report from the letter and after reading it, he became furious and slapped Zhang De on the face.
Snapped!
Zhang De covered his face and said in confusion: "Brother, why did you hit me?"
"Aiyu Shili Dala was assassinated more than ten days ago. Why did we only receive the news now?"
"Brother, there is a great cause in the middle, so it is difficult to transmit messages..."
"This is not an excuse, I give a lot of money to the spies every year." Zhang Cheng was furious, "For more than ten days, how many fighter planes will be wasted by this.
If I had known that Aiyu Shilida was dead, it would not have been as simple as harassment. I would have attacked aggressively.
But it's too late to say anything now.
Aiyushi Ridara was killed, and even his body was dug out and dried.
The young emperor of Meng Yuan, the queen mothers of the two palaces, and the civil and military ministers were all captured.
Don't you know what this means?
Whoever can destroy Meng Yuan first will have destiny and will be able to occupy the great righteousness!
The great cause is about to move the capital, and autumn is about to begin, and students from all over the world will gather in Fengyang.
Now that Yingchang has been defeated again, what do you want me to do?
What do you think of the world? "
Zhang De covered his face and hesitated: "Yes, but this is not my fault!"
"It's not your fault, is it my fault?" Zhang Cheng wished he could kill this fool now. If he hadn't been his own brother, he would have done it long ago.
Once again suppressing the urge to kill him, Zhang Cheng said coldly: "The most important thing now is to find a way to remedy it!"
"Brother, we are sending 50,000 people to attack..."
"Are you filled with paste in your head? Now that the dust has settled, how do you want others to see us if you sneak attack on others at this time?" Zhang Cheng could no longer suppress his anger and shined another look at Zhang De's face. Slap, "Although we say that the winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, we are no longer a grassroots team. Do you want me to be ridiculed by the whole world?"
