Chapter 1152 Meeting Changsun Wuji
Looking at Li Feng's leaving figure, Tsuruta said: "Your Highness, it seems that it will be difficult for us to find a breakthrough from Li Feng."
Orihime said: "I have no intention of letting him stop. If it were me, I wouldn't stop either. With such a good opportunity, as long as we defeat our 200,000-strong army, we can occupy the entire Fuso.
I really didn't expect that Li Feng's ambitions were so big. I would rather offend Emperor Tang and lose a lot of money than give Li Feng a city, even if that city is actually a shabby fishing village."
"Your Highness, there is no use regretting now. We should find a solution." Tsuruta said.
Oda said: "The enemy of your enemy is your friend. Go find Li Feng's enemy."
"His enemies are not just those aristocratic families, but there is now a rumor in Chang'an that Li Feng's Shengshi Company is about to open, with the purpose of cracking down on those aristocratic families who plagiarize Li Feng's industry," Tsuruta said.
"That's right. Those aristocratic families have a certain influence in the court, just like Fusang's aristocratic family. One or two may not feel it, but when there are more people, not even Li Shimin can resist them."
"Your Highness is wise," Tsuruta said, patting his horse.
Orihime continued: "You will give gifts to the major families now, and promise that as long as they stop Li Feng, the court will give them the greatest convenience when their merchants go to Fuso to do business."
"Yes. Princess. But wouldn't it be more appropriate for the princess to send it off in person?" Tsuruta said.
"I'm going to find another person to help."
"Who? Who else in the Tang Dynasty has greater power than the powerful families?" Tsuruta asked.
"The current queen's brother, Li Shimin's brother-in-law, Changsun Wuji."
"It's him!" Tsuruta was stunned for a moment.
…
Changsun Wuji was coming out of the palace at this time and was stopped on his way home.
Changsun Wuji, who was sitting in the carriage, felt the carriage stop and said, "What's going on?"
The coachman immediately responded respectfully: "Replying to the Master, someone stopped the carriage."
Changsun Wuji was confused. He opened the curtain and saw a woman wearing a kimono, so he asked: "Why are you blocking my carriage? Do you know my identity?"
The woman in the kimono was none other than Orihime. She showed a smile, like a hibiscus flower blooming instantly, which stunned the coachman. But who is Changsun Wuji? I have never seen such a beautiful woman like him. Orihime's.
The smile still couldn't shake him.
Orihime said respectfully: "Lord Changsun, the little girl is the envoy of Fuso, Orihime. I want to discuss something with Lord Changsun."
Changsun Wuji said: "Messenger Orihime, I wonder what you want from me? Why didn't you go to my house instead of stopping me halfway?"
Orihime said: "Because I don't want too many people to know that I have sought out Lord Changsun, especially His Majesty the Tang Emperor and Li Feng."
Changsun Wuji frowned slightly and said, "You don't want them to know? In other words, this is a big deal."
"That's right, it's a major matter concerning my Fusang's safety. Sir Changsun, please move on."
"No need to bother. Come to my carriage." Changsun Wuji said.
Orihime was stunned at first, and then she looked happy. This meant that Changsun Wuji was willing to talk to him, and if they talked on the carriage, they wouldn't have to worry about the ears between the walls.
She quickly boarded the carriage.
Changsun Wuji said to the coachman: "Don't go back home for the time being. Keep walking on the street."
"Yes, sir," the coachman said.
Then the coachman started to drive the carriage and started running. Because it was on the street, the speed was not very fast.
Changsun Wuji then asked: "I wonder what the reason why Orihime's envoy came to see me?"
Orihime smiled and said: "Lord Changsun speaks so freely. I hope that when I see His Majesty the Tang Emperor tomorrow, he can speak for me and ask Li Feng to give up his policy in Fuso, preferably the four cities in Fuso.
As long as he agrees, I am willing to give Lord Changsun a city."
Changsun Wuji smiled and said: "Exchanging one city for three cities is indeed a good deal."
"The city I gave to Lord Changsun is the first-level city of Fusang, which is equivalent to the size of Li Feng's three cities.
Moreover, the city I gave to Lord Changsun is not under the jurisdiction of the Fuso Imperial Court. Lord Changsun only needs to pay a certain amount of tax every year. Lord Changsun is responsible for the immediate military, political, commercial and agricultural affairs, etc." Orihime directly took out a huge temptation.
.
She had investigated Changsun Wuji, no, to be precise, she had already investigated the entire Tang Dynasty officials, and she knew everything about their preferences, personalities, etc.
He knows who can and cannot win over.
Therefore, Orihime knew that Changsun Wuji had a strong desire for power and had always wanted to become prime minister, control the government, and become a person inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Changsun Wuji was indeed attracted by Orihime's gift.
"Messenger Orihime, can you speak more clearly?"
Orihime nodded, told what happened, how she had just met Li Feng, and even said that Li Feng would never give up.
"Damn it. He is clearly the Lantian Marquis and Prince Consort of the Tang Dynasty, but he actually accepted the canonization of the Eastern King of Fusang Kingdom. Is he an official of the Tang Dynasty or your Eastern King of Fusang?
I will definitely deal with this kind of unfaithful and unfilial person." Changsun Wuji said solemnly.
There was deep jealousy in his eyes. He was very jealous of Li Feng's ability and current status.
Hearing this, Orihime quickly said: "Thank you for your support, Lord Changsun. As long as His Majesty the Tang Emperor can convict Li Feng and order him to return the four islands of Fuso Kingdom, I will immediately hand over the city to Lord Changsun."
Changsun Wuji waved his hand and said: "This matter can be discussed later, because His Majesty loves Li Feng very much, and I am definitely able to defeat him."
"I understand this. In fact, Lord Changsun can find allies. Recently I heard that Li Feng wants to open a company that will sell all his properties in order to take revenge on certain aristocratic families.
I think Lord Changsun can ask them to deal with Li Feng together." Orihime gave Changsun Wuji an idea.
Changsun Wuji thought for a while and said: "Did you go to them about this matter? But I can't. It's inconvenient for me. If Your Majesty knows that I am too close to the aristocratic family, I may lose more than I gain."
Orihime nodded and said, "Since it's inconvenient for you, let me make arrangements. In fact, I think you can make use of a group of common people.
If I know that the news about Li Feng accepting Fusang's canonization has been spread, I believe that Li Feng's reputation as being unfaithful and unjust will spread, and it will be easier to get involved in him."
Changsun Wuji's eyes lit up and he said: "It's a good idea, but you still have to do this."
"no problem."
