Many members of the family have also targeted Meng Jizu and Lei Wanche.
The two of them are powerful figures in the Jizhou army, and they are also noble aristocratic forces with high status. It is actually very feasible to be led by them to form a huge political alliance and invest in siding with the prince to seize the throne.<
/p>
It can definitely play the role of one plus one plus countless, equal to infinity.
Since ancient times, the alliance of regional forces has been an unavoidable problem.
For example, all those in Jizhou whose power is based in Jizhou can be counted as the Jizhou faction in the Great Yong dynasty. There may be various internal frictions, conflicts, and even life-and-death conflicts, but in general, staying together to keep warm is far better than each other.
The camp has a better future.
If it can be said that the Jizhou faction invests in siding with Beitang and succeeds in the end, then the return must be extremely amazing. In the future, the number of high-ranking officials from Jizhou in the court may increase rapidly. This is the return on investment.
However, it is obvious that neither Meng Jizu nor Lei Wanche will get involved in this kind of thing.
It is easy to understand that the family power they are currently in is already very large. As long as they manage and develop step by step, they can always continue to grow step by step. After all, they are only a first-class power, not the top. They are far away from the Nine Surnames and Ten
Three, there is still quite a distance.
Therefore, participating in such a high-risk matter as seizing the heir is really not worth the gain for such a large family.
Because no one can guarantee that the person they bet on will eventually defeat other competitors and reach Dabao. History has told countless speculators that no one will know what the outcome will be until the last moment.<
/p>
It was out of consideration for the family that Meng Jizu described these things in detail to Meng Zhao in his letter, so as to prevent him from being deceived and exploited because he was unaware of the sinister nature of people's hearts.
, dragging the entire Meng family down.
Another reason why Meng Jizu and Lei Wanche did not participate in this matter is that the two families were really at odds with each other. During the invasion of foreign tribes, they kept making small moves. You can imagine that if the two of them jointly took charge of the Jizhou faction, more intense conflicts would definitely break out.
and contradiction.
Neither the Lei family nor the Meng family will tolerate the other party becoming powerful. They will not interfere and maintain the status quo. Both families can accept it. Once someone gets involved, the conflicts that were originally in the dark will be brought into the light.
,Then the real decisive battle will break out.
Through these, Meng Zhao once again broadened his horizons, and even vaguely understood an important reason for the disharmony between the Lei family and the Meng family.
Interests, interests, fucking interests, this is very likely to involve matters related to the summit.
The nine surnames and thirteen families are officially recognized as the top powers in Dayong. Each of them is a dominating existence. For example, the Beitang royal family is the nominal master of the world.
However, Jizhou did not have the birth of nine surnames and thirteen families, which is rare in the entire Dayong region.
After all, according to the arrangement of the forces of the nine surnames and thirteen families, and the division of land among the fourteen states of Dayong, there may be more than one family that has set up its base camp in some state boundaries.
This is really a weird thing.
However, if combined with the information Meng Zhao understands and detects, he can also make some deductions.
The first reason is the positioning of Jizhou.
The northern edge of Jizhou is a land of barbarians. It is a frontier battlefield. It is always faced with invasion and threats from aliens, which is not conducive to the entry and development of super-large forces.
If we are unable to withstand the invasion of aliens, it is not impossible for a thousand-year-old family to be wiped out.
Secondly, Jizhou is positioned as the center of the four northern states and the first of the four states. The movements of Jizhou are often related to the dynamics of the four states. If there is a super power in charge, they can directly take advantage of Jizhou’s invisible resources and geographical convenience.
, reaching into the other three states to create a transcendent power spanning four states, which is something that the Beitang royal family and even the top wealthy sects cannot tolerate.
Of course, there are other factors, but from a macro perspective, these two points are the most important.
However, facts are facts, and external factors cannot affect the ambitions of various families in Jizhou.
They are already located in Jizhou, the largest state in the north, so they are naturally ambitious and want to go one step further and become a behemoth comparable to the Nine Surnames.
Among them, the Meng family, the Lei family and other families that have the foundation and strength and are more likely to reach the top are the most popular.
There is a saying that a soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier. Similarly, a family that doesn’t want to be a nine-surname is definitely not a family with potential and a future.
The Meng family and the Lei family may have various grievances, but the fundamental difference and contradiction is that Jizhou can only accommodate one big family with nine surnames, not two. In this way, the two families want to
It is impossible to shake hands and make peace, because that means giving up the opportunity to reach the top, and there may not be such an opportunity again in the future.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that both companies appear to be both radical and conservative.
The radical thing is that in Jizhou, they spare no effort to suppress hostile families. For example, the Meng family plotted against the Lei family, and the Lei family immediately sent out the Seven Monsters of Minshan to retaliate.
Conservatively, they are unwilling to put their family in an extremely dangerous situation, especially in a fierce struggle to seize the rightful son.
Therefore, they would rather give up their so-called leadership position of the Jizhou faction and just seek stability. Only by winning steadily can they finally stand out.
These are the information sent by Meng Jizu, as well as Meng Zhao's own analysis and deduction, and there are many things that can be learned from it.
The most direct thing is that when he leaves the government in the future, he wants to find a foundation, and it is best to have a structure like Jizhou, without a super-large force suppressing everything.
Otherwise, it is almost impossible to establish a foundation and develop and grow under the nose of a force such as Nine Surnames and Thirteen Families in a backwater-like environment, which will directly hinder his ambition and development.
Meng Zhao even directly eliminated several of the areas he had selected previously, and only waited for Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao brothers to return home before he told his plan and asked for opinions.
The second good news comes from Yunwu Mountain.
According to the person who delivered the news, after a long period of wrangling, buck-passing, and nagging, everything has finally settled. Those forces from different states and counties have begun to return to the family sect one after another
In probably a few days, Meng Hongdao will lead his masters back from Yunwu Mountain.
The Fire Dragon Cave that Meng Zhao was most worried about had nothing to gain this time. Even if he was dissatisfied, there was nothing he could do about it, because apparently other forces, large and small, also returned empty-handed, so they could not vent all their dissatisfaction and unwillingness to the Meng family. It can only be said that this investment in Jiaolong was a failure.
The safe departure of a Thirteen Family member is the second best news that Meng Zhao has heard during this period.
The Meng family, or rather him, is the one with the biggest vested interests in the entire Yunwushan incident.
