Liang Ren said: "Actually, what we ask Mr. Zhang to do is very simple. As long as Mr. Zhang asks the king to replace the head of Xishan County."
"Replace the head of Xishan County?" Zhang Rong was secretly surprised.
"That's right!" Liang Ren took two steps forward, approached Zhang Rong, and whispered: "As long as Mr. Zhang can do this, we will give you ten thousand taels of gold."
Zhang Rong rolled his eyes, then glanced at Liang Ren and Liu Yiyang, shook his head and said, "You are not horse traders."
Liang and Liu both laughed and said nothing. Zhang Rong carefully thought about their names. One was Liang Ren and the other was Liu Yuyang. Ren can be referred to as 'human', and Yang can also be referred to as 'sheep'. One person and one sheep together form a person.
Fake words, even the names reported by these two people should be fake.
Zhang Rong took a breath and asked in a solemn voice: "Who are you two?"
Liang Ren looked down at the tea cup on the table, stretched out his hand to drink the tea, then wrote the word "风" on the table, and said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter who we are, Mr. Zhang doesn't know
It’s better than knowing. The most important thing is that what we ask Mr. Zhang to do is not difficult. After the task is completed, there will be thousands of gold to collect, why not do it?"
It turned out to be from Feng Country! Zhang Rong's brows frowned unconsciously, and he quickly passed his palms on the table, erasing the word "Feng" written in the tea. He said: "I don't care who you are, but I want to know
Your purpose!"
Liang Ren shrugged and said with a smile: "This... I'm sorry to tell you." As he spoke, he took out a banknote from his arms, put it on the table, pushed it towards Zhang Rong, and said: "
This is one thousand taels of gold. The bill must come from the imperial court of the Mo Kingdom. It can be withdrawn from any bank in the Mo Kingdom. This is our deposit! As long as Mr. Zhang completes this matter, we will transfer the remaining
I will send you the nine thousand taels of gold together with me. Of course, Mr. Zhang, you don’t have to worry about us breaking our word, because there will be many opportunities for us to cooperate in the future. Besides, my master is not a stingy person."
Looking at the gold ticket in front of him, Zhang Rong was speechless for a long time. One thousand taels of gold was not much, but ten thousand taels of gold was too tempting. This was almost equivalent to his salary of more than ten years.
If Zhang Rong is not moved, that is definitely a lie.
Seeing that he neither accepted nor refused clearly, Liang Ren smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Zhang, we are waiting for your good news, so we will leave first." After saying this, he shook his head to Liu Yiyang and turned to leave.
.
At this time, Zhang Rong, who was in a daze, suddenly said expressionlessly: "Wait a minute."
Liang Ren and Liu Yiyang turned around and looked at him puzzledly. Zhang Rong picked up the golden ticket on the table and played with it back and forth. After a while, he raised the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said, "In the future, we will never
There will be opportunities for cooperation again.”
Hearing this, Liang Ren and Liu Yiyang's expressions changed, and they both took a breath. Zhang Rong put the golden ticket in his sleeves and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, you two. Although we will not cooperate again in the future, but
This time, I can help you." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Liu Yiyang and said, "He can leave!" Then he pointed at Liang Ren and said, "But you have to stay. After the matter is completed, I saw
With the remaining golden tickets, I will naturally let you go. However, this is just this once, if you two dare to come to me again in the future, I will definitely kill you!"
Liang Ren and Liu Yiyang looked at each other, and smiles appeared on their faces. Liang Ren cupped his hands and said, "Being respectful is worse than obeying orders. I'm afraid I'm going to bother Mr. Zhang during this period."
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" Zhang Rongpi said with a smile.
Zhang Rong already knew the identities of Liang Ren and Liu Yiyang, and also knew who the mastermind behind them was, but he believed that it was not difficult to change the head of Xishan County, and it would have no impact on the safety of Mo State. Besides,
This is what the king has always wanted to do. This time he pushed the situation and facilitated the matter. Not only did it solve the problem of the king, but he could also get ten thousand taels of gold. Why not do it when he got the best of both worlds? But Zhang Rong is not the same.
Silly melon, he is playing with fire by colluding with the spies of Feng State. If he is not careful, he will burn himself with fire. Therefore, he is only willing to do it this time. After finishing the matter, he will immediately break up with Feng State. As for leaving Liang behind
Ren, I just want to hold a hostage, so that when the time comes I can finish the job and have no money, so all my efforts will be in vain.
The reason why Fengguo spies were able to find Zhang Rong with unique insight was because they received a secret order from Tang Yin. The reason why Tang Yin could issue such a secret order was not because of how well he knew Zhang Rong. It was entirely because of his knowledge of Zhang Rong.
Cai Gui's plan to buy Zhang Rong was only part of Cai Gui's plan. To collect people's money and eliminate disasters for them. After Zhang Rong received the gold and silver from the spies of Feng Kingdom, he began to rack his brains to figure it out.
How could he propose the replacement of the head of Xishan County in front of Shao Fang? How could he make his proposal not too abrupt?
By coincidence, within two days, news came from Xishan County that Shao Yu had brought Shao Jun into Fengyang City, but he neither killed him nor captured him, and treated him like a distinguished guest. This
The news may be just a trivial matter to others, but Zhang Rong is keenly aware that the opportunity has come.
In the court, he impeached Shao Yu on this matter. "Your Majesty, Shao Yu is so bold that he openly sheltered imperial prisoners. His intentions have been revealed. Your Majesty should punish this thief severely!"
Shao Yu was originally a thorn in Shao Fang's eyes and a thorn in his flesh, and he was unhappy. Now that he heard that he had taken Shao Jun in, he felt even more uncomfortable. When Zhang Rong finished speaking, his face was gloomy and he did not express his stance immediately, but looked around.
, asked: "What does it mean to be listed as your beloved?"
Guo Hui, the left prime minister, frowned and said: "Shao Yu deserves to die, but... it's not time to punish him yet. Our country is currently fighting on two fronts. We need to eliminate the trouble first before we can solve the internal troubles!"
Shao Fang sat on the king's chair, his face even more gloomy and ugly. General Li Jin also said: "General, I think what Prime Minister Guo said is reasonable. It is not wise to touch Shao Yu now!"
Dong Sheng, who was also in the court, nodded secretly. Although Guo Hui and Li Jin were both good at flattery, at least their minds were not as simple as Zhang Rong's.
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Rong cupped his hands and said, "Now Shao Yu is no longer a domestic trouble, but a foreign trouble for our country."
"How do you say this?" Shao Fang leaned forward and asked without blinking.
Zhang Rong said: "Shao Jun has settled in Fengyang, and at this time, the Feng army just gave up attacking Xishan County, turned its spearhead, and continued to advance south, completely ignoring Xishan County's worries. Isn't this too unreasonable?"
Huh? After hearing what he said, everyone present was startled. Yes, Feng Jun's behavior was indeed a bit abnormal. Li Jin murmured while thinking: "What Mr. Zhang said makes sense. Feng Jun's style has always been
Those who have a grudge must be avenged. This time they attacked Fengyang. I heard that they lost tens of thousands of troops in just one battle. The Feng Army retreated hastily without making a second attack and continued southward. It is really unbelievable and not the style of the Feng Army.
.”
"Hmph!" Zhang Rong snorted and said, "Actually, it's easy to understand. That is, Shao Yu has defected to Feng State, and he has become a traitor to our Mo State. If not, how could he do it so grandly?
After receiving Shao Jun, how could Feng Jun continue to go south with such confidence? As the saying goes, there can be no wave without wind. Sirs and generals should go to the people and listen. Shao Yu's surrender to Feng Guo is no longer a secret.
We are the only ones who are still in the dark!”
Snapped!
Shao Fang stood up and yelled: "Is this happening?"
All the civil and military ministers in the dynasty were trembling with fright. Li Jin did not dare to hide it and stammered: "There are indeed rumors among the people that Shao Yu surrendered to Feng State. It's just that rumors are rumors after all and may not be credible. Therefore, minister
I haven’t dared to report it to the king yet…”
Before he could finish his words, Shao Fang was so angry that he shouted: "Are you going to wait until Shao Yu leads the Feng Army to fight under my nose before you come and report to me?"
Plop! All the civil and military ministers in the court fell to their knees and said repeatedly: "I don't dare, your Majesty, calm down, I don't dare!"
"Don't you dare? If Master Zhang hadn't mentioned it today, I wouldn't have known about it until now!"
"However, the imperial court has indeed not received any reports of defection from Xishan County!"
"The reason why Xishan County did not blatantly promote defection and surrender to Feng State is because Shao Yu was afraid." Zhang Rong said with a sneer: "God help me, let Han Zhong and Yuan Tian lead our army of fifteen
The crowd was the first to station in Fengyang. Shao Yu must have been worried about Master Han and Master Yuan, and was afraid of a civil war in the city, so he suppressed the surrender and did not dare to announce it immediately. I thought, wait until the Feng army pacified the surrounding counties of Xishan County
, will definitely turn the spearhead, join forces with Shao Yu inside and outside, and encircle and suppress Master Han and Master Yuan. Therefore, Your Majesty, we cannot wait any longer. We must strike first to gain strength. We must immediately remove Shao Yu from his official position and eliminate future troubles forever.
.”
These words were said to Shao Fang's heart. The latter nodded repeatedly while listening. When Zhang Rong finished speaking, he said to his left and right: "This is the good advice that I want to hear. You should also learn more from Master Zhang."
learned."
All the civil servants and generals were so embarrassed by Shao Fang's remarks that they all shook their heads and did not dare to breathe.
Others did not dare to speak, but Dong Sheng did. Now the only person in the Mo court who dared to contradict Shao Fang was Dong Sheng. The old man took a step forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, does Shao Yu have any direction?
The surrender of the Feng Kingdom is not yet known, so how can we hastily dismiss Shao Yu from his official post? If Shao Yu has not surrendered, the king's dismissal will be tantamount to *Shao Yu's defection to the Feng Kingdom. Please think twice!"
"The matter has become so obvious, and you are still speaking for him, Dong Sheng, what are your intentions?" Shao Fang's face turned red with anger, he pressed his hands on the table and shouted almost roaringly.
"Your Majesty, I am loyal and loyal. I don't want to watch Da Mo's country be destroyed in one day..."
"Bold!" With Shao Fang's support, Zhang Rong pointed angrily at Dong Sheng and yelled: "Dong Sheng, you are so brave, how dare you accuse the king of being a foolish king in public?!
