Mu Ying did not mention any sensitive topics at the banquet. He talked about anecdotes from the world, talking about mountains and rivers, lakes and seas. He had extensive contacts and was eloquent, but the atmosphere at the scene was not.
Bring it up. (Provide the latest chapters to read>
The Li family of Ningxia and the Mongolians of Mobei are feuding. In order to compete for control of the Hetao area, the two families have fought for decades, resulting in thousands of casualties. How can this hatred be resolved with a banquet?
As for the deputy head of the Flying Eagle Hall, Mu Linfeng, his wrist was crushed by Yuan Feng during the day. The blood marks on his neck were not healed yet, so he had to sit together and have a drink and talk. Although he was a gangster and did not care about past grudges, Mu Linfeng
I couldn't be happy at all, and the smile on my face looked fake.
Mu Ying was the only one performing a one-man show, so the scene was a bit awkward, but Mu Ying didn't care and continued to talk and laugh happily.
While drinking, suddenly there was the sound of fighting outside. When everyone came out to see, it turned out that there was a big fight in the side hall. It was actually Yuan Feng's men and Li Mingying's men who teamed up to deal with the Mobei Mongols. They were all big and round men.
Han, if we fight, the flowers and plants will be in trouble. The side hall is already in a mess. Nanfeng is complaining endlessly. The boys in the humble garden are all young men with tender skin and tender flesh. They have never seen such a fierce fight. Every one of them is scared to death.
Okay, let alone trying to break up the fight, you can't even win if you run.
They are both hot-blooded young men, and they are feuding. It would be strange not to fight. When everyone came out, they all had different expressions. The little Mongolian prince Mandu Gule's eyebrows stood up and he was furious, but Yuan Feng and Li Mingying were.
Looking at each other and smiling, Mu Ying frowned, jumped into the battle group, and separated the two strongest men with a gentle move.
The man who was pushed aside was Zhuoligetu, the most powerful man under Yuan Feng. The sturdy Mongolian man was staggered by the fall. He subconsciously wanted to draw his sword, but saw that the person who took action was the host of the banquet.
, snorted and quit the battle group.
The rest of the group also stopped angrily. Mandugule's guards had been beaten to death, and some of their arms were still hanging at strange angles. It seemed that they had been interrupted, but these powerful Mongolians
He didn't even hum, and stared at his opponents with cold eyes.
The guards Li Mingying led were elite soldiers selected from the Iron Kites. They had all participated in the Battle of Xiliang. They happened to have fought side by side with Yuan Feng's men. They were all old acquaintances. Naturally, they would work side by side again. As for Zhuo Lige,
Tu, who is originally from Mongolia, has no cold feelings towards his fellow tribesmen in Mobei, so of course he would side with his own clan in a fight.
After a fierce fight, the banquet was finally ruined. Without a word, Mandu Gule led his men and walked away. Yuan Feng and Li Mingying also took advantage of the situation to say goodbye to Mu Ying, and everyone walked away.
After leaving the Humble Garden, Yuan Feng and Li Mingying looked at each other, "Brother, where are you going?"
"Find a place to continue drinking. The drink just now was really unpleasant."
In the humble garden, a group of boys were tidying up the smashed side hall. Nanfeng walked among the remains of various tables and chairs and broken porcelain pieces, picking up this and that from time to time and humming distressedly: "This is from the Song Dynasty.
This is a vase, this is a sandalwood chair, oh my god, these Qiu Ba are really willing to smash it."
Mu Ying smiled dryly at the side: "I'll pay, and it will all be charged to my account."
"Given your size, you even paid for the dinner on credit, and I made the cloak for you. How can you compensate me for that!"
…
The quality of a mutton restaurant on the street is hundreds of times worse than that of Humble Garden. The tables are all greasy, the tablecloth draped over the waiter's shoulders is also black, the heavy wooden tables and chairs, and the thick porcelain bowls,
The earthenware vegetable basin is as big as a basin. It contains roasted mutton, red chili oil, large pieces of mutton, blood intestines, sheep head, sheep tail oil, and enough shochu. It is open for eating and drinking.
Men from Liang and Xixia do not like the quiet and elegant atmosphere of Zhuoyuan, but this kind of place suits their taste.
We didn’t even eat or drink well just now, but now we can finally drink to our heart’s content. Brothers who haven’t seen each other for many years have reunited in a foreign country thousands of miles away from home, and they feel even more intimate. After three glasses of strong wine and a few sheep tripes, everyone’s chatterbox has become more intense.
All are opened.
Putting aside what happened after the separation, Yuan Feng first asked why Li Mingying became friends with Mu Ying and why he and Mandu Gule appeared at the same wine table.
If it were anyone else, that would be fine. Li Mingying was also a person who knew the depth and the shallowness, but it was different in front of Yuan Bao. He naturally poured beans out of a bamboo tube and knew everything and talked about everything.
It turns out that Taihu Water Village and the Li family in Ningxia have had contacts for a long time. It was initially a business deal, but later they got more in-depth and talked about some profound issues. As for what the profound issues were, Li Mingying explained it in one sentence.
"What else can we do, just rebel."
"So what if the Taihu water village rebels? Could it be that he still wants to take over the world?" Yuan Feng thought it was a bit unbelievable. These days, people are so weak that they swallow elephants, and water bandits also want to dominate the world. What a world.
"That's not necessarily true. There is someone behind Mu Ying. As for who it is, he hasn't spoken yet."
"Oh, what will be the benefits to you after that?"
"It's just a matter of splitting the earth and becoming a king."
"It's a joke, Ningxia is already yours, and you still have to cut it with him."
"Haha, of course not only, Shaanxi and Shanxi..."
Yuan Feng shook his head: "This is unrealistic."
"So Muying also invited Mandu Gule to tell me that if our Li family doesn't do this, someone else will do it."
"So, that's why you invited me here."
Mu Ying did not plan to have a good meal or drink at this banquet. It was just a bidding party. The more intense the fight and the louder the fuss, the happier he would be. No matter how hard it is, it is not as good as God's. Mu Ying did not expect that
Yuan Feng and Li Mingying are sworn brothers, at least these two families will not be fooled by him.
His subordinates were acquainted with Yuan Feng's guards. Li Mingying thought quickly and immediately knew that the force behind Yuan Feng should be Xiliang. He chuckled and said: "Brother, in fact, if this business is done well, let's raise troops to commit crimes."
On the other side, we will go around and talk about it, but we won’t actually start a war. We just need to attract the Zhou army. After this is done, we will get northern Shaanxi and you will get Gansu. It won’t cost a penny. How great.

…
After returning to his apartment, Yuan Feng lay in bed and couldn't sleep for a long time. Although he drank a lot of wine, his mind was still clear. As a former prince of the Han Dynasty, it was a lie to say that he did not want to recover the country and seek revenge, but he only had determination.
It is far from enough. Through the war with the Turks, Yuan Feng understood one thing. Fighting depends on the right time, place and people, both of which are indispensable. At present, the political situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty is basically peaceful. Huguang and Jiangnan are rich places, with population, food and salt.
The iron output is far greater than that of Xiliang, and the imperial court of the Zhou Dynasty has not become corrupt enough for the people to rise up. To win the hearts and minds of the people, there are two things that must be done if you want the Central Plains. One is to show your strength, and the other is to weaken the opponent.
.
The best way to weaken the rule of the Zhou Dynasty is to provoke civil strife. Someone happened to help do this. If you guessed correctly, the master who was willing to spend money should be the third prince Zhang Chengtai who had just been named the Prince of Anguo County.
.
The eldest prince is the crown prince, the second prince is guarding Yanjing, and the fourth prince is guarding Chang'an. They have soldiers and food in their hands. Only the third prince is poor and has no money. He relies on a few antiques, calligraphy and painting shops to make some money. Compared with the other brothers, this kind of little fun is simply ridiculous.
He is not even as good as a child playing house. He even recruited several martial arts masters, but they were wiped out by the Jin Yiwei. He has no money and no one, and the only thing he can sell is his future.
I don't feel bad buying my father's land. As long as I can become the emperor, I will make money. It doesn't matter if I cede some land. The third prince is quite courageous. I don't know what conditions he promised Mu Ying. After all, he can be named a marquis and a general.
It is inevitable, but the third prince is too treacherous. After gaining power, he will inevitably stage a tragedy where the rabbit dies and the dog dies. Of course, this is not what Yuan Feng needs to consider now.
Heroes emerge in troubled times, and the initiator often does not get the last grape. Who will win depends on the future.
…
Two days later, the imperial court reported an edict that attracted Yuan Feng's attention. The emperor sent the prince of Anguo County to recruit Taihu water bandits.
This is a bit interesting. It must be that the third prince has been very well-behaved these days, or the father feels that he has wronged his third son and wants to find something to compensate him. In short, the third prince took this job.
It’s not like the imperial court had never thought of recruiting people. The water bandits in Taihu Lake are endlessly annihilated. The eight hundred miles of vast lake, hundreds of large and small islands, and all kinds of people are countless, and the water bandits have no face.
Carving words, throwing away the weapons, there are fishermen, and running towards the shore, there are farmers. On the surface, the sea is calm, but when the officers and soldiers step forward, the water bandits emerge from behind. It is really a wildfire that cannot be burned out, and the lake wind blows and creates another fire.
.
At first, the county's quick team went to suppress it, then the state army was used, and then the Yangtze River Navy moved in, and the imperial court sent imperial envoys to try their best to suppress it. However, they got twice the result with half the effort and only lost money and food. The land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River could not withstand the fire of swords and soldiers.
They were more harmful to the people than water bandits, so the imperial court changed the name of suppression to pacification. They had been talking about it for some time, but nothing came of it.
This time, His Royal Highness was sent to recruit people. It was obviously to show the importance of the imperial court. In fact, the emperor gave the third son a chance to make meritorious service. After the matter was completed, Zhang Chengtai also had the qualifications to join the Zhongshu Province to assist in government affairs.
Something like that must be the next step.
These things were not analyzed by Yuan Feng. He had just arrived and needed to make up a lot of lessons. Liu Ying'er told him this after reading the Di newspaper. After Liu Songpo became the right minister, his official duties became even busier. He went to court every morning at four o'clock.
, I don’t go home until sunset, and I have to stay up late at night to review official documents. I get very little sleep every day, which can be described as exhausting myself to death.
…
At Sanshan Noodle House, it was not meal time, there were no customers in the shop, the waiter was taking a nap in the kitchen, and Yuan Feng and Liu Ying'er were sitting behind the counter. This place had become an information exchange point for them.
A piece of paper was handed to Yuan Feng's hand.
"This is the list of generals of the Taihu Navy."
Yuan Feng took it and looked at it. There were a lot of names written on it. The one at the front was Mu Ying, the admiral of the Taihu Navy, who was rewarded with three thousand taels of silver. The following were generals at all levels. Yuan Feng didn't recognize most of the names.
At the end, an acquaintance appears, Mu Lin Feng Shui Master Bai Zong, who rewards fifty taels of silver.
Oh my God, the Third Highness has not even left yet, but he has already obtained the reward and the official title for recruiting people from the imperial court. This Liu Ying'er must be too powerful.
"This...where did you get it?"
"Hee hee, I secretly obtained one of the keys to your study, Mr. Right Prime Minister."
Silently, with this little spy here, what secrets will the Zhou Dynasty have to keep from him in the future?
