Yao Xing's brows gradually relaxed: "Hasn't the Mafia been eliminated yet? Or do you, Mr. Tao, intend to reorganize the Mafia organization? This time my spies reported that they commanded Nan Yan during the Battle of Linqu.
The leader of the army is a man named Heipao, who is also Nanyan's national advisor. This man's identity is mysterious. There seems to be a secret organization called Tiandao League behind him. It has manipulated and controlled the mafia for many years. What do you think about this Tiandao League?
How much do you know?"
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "It was only this time that I learned about the existence of such an organization. I had always wondered why the mafia was finished so quickly, and Huan Xuan was almost blamed for it. You know, I didn't take care of the other guards.
He was betrayed to Huan Xuan. Now that I think about it, I am afraid that the Tiandao Alliance took the initiative to throw out the mafia in order to support Huan Xuan."
Yao Xing softly said "Oh": "This Tiandao Alliance can also control the powerful Nanyan and mobilize the Xianbei cavalry for his own use. Since you hate Liu Yu so much, why don't you cooperate with this Tiandao Alliance instead of coming to find him?"
What about me? Doesn’t this mean that I’m looking for something far away?”
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Because the Black Robe of the Tiandao League has been defeated miserably, and there is almost only Guanggu City left in the entire Nanyan. If I go to Guanggu City at this time, am I not throwing myself into a trap? If the city is destroyed, I will even run away."
No matter what, Heipao has no choice but to fight to the death with Liu Yu. My best choice is to come to His Majesty and ask you to help Heipao save Nan Yan and defeat Liu Yu at the same time.
Only by working together can we have a bright future."
Yao Xing shook his head: "Liu Yu and I don't have a life-and-death hatred. As long as I don't accept Liu Yu's enemies and don't help the enemy countries he wants to destroy, then at least in the past few years, I can live in peace with Liu Yu and the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Yes, your identity is not exposed now. I can just send Sima Guofan back as a favor to Liu Yu. Or if you are afraid that he will betray you, I might as well kill Sima Guofan directly and pass on Liu Yu to show my sincerity.
, the strategy you proposed to me through the imperial master to defeat Liu Bobo sounds good. I can try it. If it is as you said, I will eliminate Liu Bobo, pacify Liangzhou, and then consider fighting with Liu Bobo when the rear is free from worries.
Liu Yu competes with each other."
Tao Yuanming smiled and waved his hand: "Your Majesty can hand over Sima Guofan, but can your Majesty hand over Huan Qian? Can you hand over Qiao Zong?"
Yao Xing frowned: "Jingzhou Huan family has always had a good relationship with my Yao family, and Huan Qian came to seek refuge in trouble. How can I just sit back and ignore it? If I refuse people who come to seek refuge with me in this troubled world, what will happen in the future?"
Maybe more people will come to defect?"
Tao Yuanming said sternly: "Isn't it the same for Sima Guofan? If everyone in the world knew that His Majesty was afraid of Liu Yu, he did not even dare to accept the Sima clan. In the future, whether it is the aristocratic family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty or the northern tribe
, no one will take the initiative to join him. Where has your majesty gone when he dared to take Liu Bobo in and did not hesitate to offend the powerful Northern Wei Dynasty?"
Yao Xing gritted his teeth: "Don't mention Liu Bobo. What I regret most in my life is accepting this white-eyed wolf. Now I may even ask the Northern Wei Dynasty to send troops and join us to destroy this thief. For this, I will lose the Loop."
I can only accept the grassland."
Tao Yuanming sighed: "Liu Bobo, His Majesty just lost his sight for a moment and couldn't control it. But because of His Majesty's virtue, didn't all the countries in Liangzhou also submit to him one after another? Including the dignitaries who have fled from various countries in the past few years, most of them are
If I come to you, I won't even go to the Northern Wei Dynasty. This is what people want. If Your Majesty wants to achieve hegemony, if you lose the heart of the nobles, then I am afraid that even people like me will not come to join you in the future.
"
Yao Xing said coldly: "You haven't come to join me now, you are doing it for yourself. Now between you and me, just like Liu Yu and I back then, we are just temporarily cooperating in the face of a common enemy.
, once you really overthrow Liu Yu, you will take power in the Jin Kingdom. By then, will you still be my friend?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Everything is done step by step. Who can predict the future, but at least I am not like Liu Yu, who needs the achievements of the Northern Expedition to realize his unrealistic ideals. Our noble families and noble families in the Eastern Jin Dynasty,
It has always been that we just want to stay in the south. We have been isolated from the lost land in the north for hundreds of years, and there is no relationship. In order to gain the support of those untouchables, Liu Yu wants to share the interests of our nobles, such as fields, to these people. This is what we
The fundamental reason why we are at odds with him!"
Yao Xing sneered and said: "Sir, you have finally told the truth. What you are really unwilling to give up is not the thousand-year tradition and inheritance, but the practical benefits. But I am very surprised. Although your Tao family has also been a member of the Eastern Jin Dynasty
The founding governor of Jingzhou, but his family has been in decline for many years. You, Mr. Tao, also lived in poverty and only worked as a minor official such as teaching oracles. Is the survival of this noble family really so important to you?
With your ability, it is not difficult to become a high-ranking official under Liu Yu, right?"
Tao Yuanming gritted his teeth: "We, the gentry, even if our family fortunes are temporarily in decline, are still among the gentry. We still have various benefits. The biggest one is the collection of family books, which ensures that we are culturally better than the untouchables.
I have a huge advantage. Although I didn't have enough to eat when I was young, I can learn and become rich. As long as I have the ability, I can soar into the sky whenever the opportunity comes. But the vast majority of farmers can only farm their whole life, except when they are working.
There is no way to rise except through meritorious service."
"And Liu Yu's coming like this is equivalent to making everyone in the world literate. Then it will be difficult for our descendants to get ahead again. No matter how poor and miserable I, Tao Yuanming, at least everyone knows about my grandfather Tao Yuanming."
Gong Tao Kan was the governor of Jingzhou during the founding of the Jin Dynasty, and his name will go down in history. If Liu Yu were to do this, I am afraid that no one in my Tao family would let anyone know about the glory of our ancestors a hundred years later."
Yao Xing looked at Tao Yuanming motionless: "But even if I intend to help you, I can't bring out the army to help Nan Yan at this time. Let me tell you the truth, Nan Yan's envoy Zhang Gang arrived two days earlier than you.
Here, I also want to ask for help from me. They even promised to send me 30,000 pieces of armor for both armor and cavalry as a thank you. They were also willing to cede the south of Daxian Mountain to me. I didn’t even consider such conditions, because,
It’s really not worth it for me to allocate the troops I used to deal with Liu Bobo to save Nanyan, which has only one isolated city left.”
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "But your Majesty can achieve the purpose of rescuing Nan Yan without sending a single soldier. If this is the case, will your Majesty still refuse?"
