"According to my guess, it should be Wanyan Zongcheng." Shen Haolin poured a bowl of soup for Shen Cha, "Actually, it was a huge mistake for him to get rid of Wanyan and Wen. The disappearance of Wanyan and Wen has not weakened the The resistance of some nobles with big surnames in the Jin Kingdom will be stronger and greater."
"Wanyan Zongcheng's original intention was to kill chickens to scare monkeys. Unfortunately, it backfired. His relationship with other nobles and even his own clan became increasingly alienated. From his sister Wanyan Yun's statement, it can be seen that even close relatives People don't approve of his actions." Xue Ruitian felt full after taking two bites. He put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and said, "I have never quite understood whether those nobles really opposed his disaster relief, or whether they were simply To oppose him just to go against him?"
"I was simply going against him." Shen Cha took a sip of the soup, "Actually, those nobles secretly helped the victims. Otherwise, this year would not be able to survive at all, and the victims would have rioted long ago. Of course. , the person that the victims are most grateful to is not Wanyan Zongcheng, the nobles distributed money, food and other materials in their own names."
"Wanyan Zongcheng no longer cares about this, as long as he can spend this new year peacefully."
"Is this the purpose of killing chickens to scare monkeys?" Xia Jiu looked at a few people curiously, "Isn't that right?"
"Of course not." Shen Haolin shook his head, "He thought that the people around Wanyan and Wen were just a bunch of rabble, and they were all in disarray, so there was no need to worry too much. As long as Wanyan and Wen were killed, the rabble would be gone. It will be automatically disbanded. But this is not the case. Although Wanyan and Wen are dead, there are many people who oppose him."
"Moreover, this kind of opposition has gone from the surface to the underground. Wanyan Zongcheng can't find it even if he wants to, unless he also has a power like Erhutang or Shadow. Unfortunately, since he became the Golden King, he has been in trouble He continued, finally taking back the military power and preparing for a big fight, but another flood happened, and he had no ability to investigate what the princes and nobles were doing in private." Shen Cha finished the soup and ate all the food. The steamed fish also put down his chopsticks, "Because of the deaths of Wanyan and Wen, the nobles with big surnames in the Kingdom of Jin were very scared. They were worried about only one thing. If Wanyan Zongcheng and Wanyan Ping were not eliminated, Disaster, they will most likely be the next to die."
"I don't quite understand." Xia Jiu shook his head, brought his brother and cousin's mutton in front of him, and said while eating, "What brother Haolin said, Wanyan Zongcheng would take action before Wanyanxi, and again What do you mean? Will he catch all these nobles in one fell swoop?"
"If he takes action against these nobles, the victims who have been rescued by the nobles will be the first to resist, and the riots he least expects will happen." Shen Haolin shook his head, "Today, the resentment in the Jin Kingdom is too heavy. Both the people and the nobles are very dissatisfied with him. If he doesn't do something to save it, he will not be able to keep his throne after the New Year."
"If you want to change the status quo, the first thing you have to do is to shift the attention focused on yourself to other places." Shen Cha sighed softly, "Even if you don't start a war, you still have to fight with the surrounding countries. There are some disputes and conflicts. When there are powerful foreign enemies around, everyone in the Jin Kingdom will share the same hatred and temporarily put aside domestic conflicts."
"This powerful foreign enemy, apart from our Daxia, is the Liao Dynasty, right? However, with Wanyan Zongcheng's current strength, he will definitely lose. Moreover, once he starts a war with us, he will play into our hands. So, this method It can only accelerate his demise, but it won't bring him any benefits, right?" Song Qiyun wiped the mouth of his brother who was full of oil, "After what happened in Wuma Town, he should have realized that he has already killed us all. Offended, otherwise, he would not choose to close the Wuma Town Post House, close the pass connecting Wuma Town, and completely evacuate Wuma Town, right?"
"You're right. He won't target us. He won't target us anymore. It's very likely..." Shen Cha picked up the tea cup and said, "This target is Wan Yanxi."
"This... is not even possible?" Song Qiyun frowned slightly, "This is not the external focus at all, but the Jin Kingdom... and even the internal conflicts of their Wanyan family will still cause more dissatisfaction. "
"Little fool, Wanyanxi's current identity is the special envoy of the Liao Kingdom, a status that can make a big fuss." Jin Jing finished his meal slowly, wiped her mouth and said, "Wanyan Zongcheng doesn't have to target the Liao Kingdom, but he can He lied that the special envoy of the Liao Kingdom named Yanxie was a traitor wanted by the Jin Kingdom, and asked the Liao Kingdom to hand him over. Yelvertu would definitely not hand him over. It would be useful for him to keep Wan Yanxi until the time came. We can secretly help Wanyanxi fight back to the Kingdom of Jin. At that time, the opportunity our two countries have been waiting for will come."
"In other words, Wanyan Zongcheng knows very well that Yelvertu will never make friends with anyone. The longer the negotiation takes, the more attention it will attract." Shen Haolin chuckled, "Those nobles with the surname who oppose Wanyan Zongcheng will once Knowing Wanyanxi's true identity, they will have hope, and they will also look forward to Wanyanxi coming back to take charge of the overall situation. In the process of this back and forth stalemate, Wanyan Zongcheng got a rest , buffer time, he can use this time to restore his image in the hearts of the people." He looked at Shen Cha, "At least this year, he has been working hard to do something, right?"
"Yeah!" Shen Cha nodded, "He is very good at winning people's hearts by sending food and other things to the victims of the disaster in Yiqing Prefecture. But after the spring begins, he must find a way to resettle these victims and provide them with a solution." They will rebuild a house that is sturdier than the current temporary residence, which is a lot of money! Wanyan Zongcheng will never be able to get it by himself, and he will definitely blackmail other nobles."
"Wanyanxi is the best excuse for blackmail." Shen Haolin added, "Whoever is unwilling to give money has a relationship with the traitor and can legitimately confiscate his home. In order to preserve their own strength, those nobles, In order to wait for Wanyanxi to truly return to the Kingdom of Jin and lead them to kill Wanyan Zongcheng, they will definitely use their money to buy Ping An, and will not really confront Wanyan Zongcheng with open swords and guns. In any case, Wanyan Ping holds the They have no military power. However, after giving the money, only they will know whether they will interfere in other places." He looked at Shen Cha, "By the way, the one you talked about last time What's the situation like now after Yeluling returned?"
"I'm at home." Shen Cha sighed, "I can't quite understand Yeluling's direction now. He has a good relationship with King Xiao Liao and is very respectful to Yelvertu. Then, he has a close relationship with Yelunan. There's a lot of flirting. Which side will he choose..." She shook her head, "I can't guess at all."
"He is not a simple person." Jin Jing sneered, "On the surface, he is innocent and harmless, but in fact he is full of evil. If you want to travel between the three parties, you must have this ability, otherwise, sooner or later, he will be killed by himself. Play to death!"
"That's right!" Shen Cha nodded, "Except for King Xiao Liao, Yelvertu and Yelunan are not easy people to get along with. To plot against them is to seek the skin of a tiger."
"This is the kind of guy who is extremely self-righteous, but this kind of guy usually shoots himself in the foot and never ends well!"
"The county prince is right!"
