The disciples from Dazen Mountain outside heard the sound and rushed in. Several people took Yang Shuang's place and stopped in front of the case. One person said in a deep voice: "Niu Youdao, what do you want to do?"
Huh! The unsheathed sword in Niu Youdao's hand returned to its sheath, and he slowly returned it to his body. He said across a few people: "According to my wish, I should have killed him with one sword and cut off Shao Pingbo's reliance. However, Yongping County
When the king learned that I wanted to come to Beizhou to do business, he repeatedly told me that he would not care about the rest. He only had one request: Don't hurt Shao Dengyun!"
Shao Dengyun, who was sitting behind the case, was stunned, with a weak look on his face. He stared blankly at Niu Youdao behind the gap between the people, as if he was hesitant to speak, as if he wanted to ask something.
Niu Youdao continued: "Shao Dengyun is Shao Dengyun, Shao Pingbo is Shao Pingbo, Shao Dengyun is the former king's old tribe, and he and the late king share the same feelings of life and death on the bloody battlefield. If the late king were alive, Shao Dengyun would not rebel. The late king passed away suddenly, and the situation changed drastically.
Shao Dengyun's rebellion against Yan was forced by the situation, and there must be difficulties. If there is a mistake, it is not Shao Dengyun's fault, but that I have failed the brothers of the late king and wronged them. I would rather the Shao family betray me than I can. If I
Killing the brothers of the late king is unkind, unjust, unfaithful and unfilial, so how can I, the king, look up to the spirit of the late king in heaven?"
This statement seems to be the tone of Shang Chaozong, the prince of Yongping County.
Shao Dengyun's eyes widened, and he said, 'I would rather the Shao family betray me than I, the King,' made his eyes red instantly, his hands on the case clenched into fists, and his breathing became heavy.
Yang Shuang looked back at him.
Niu Youdao saw his reaction clearly and continued: "The prince is benevolent and righteous, but Niu doesn't think so. He deeply believes that this is the benevolence of a woman. Let him go now, but he will be a trouble in the future! He should have been killed, but I think of him in the future.
The prince begs for mercy again and again. If I insist on doing it, I may hurt the harmony between me and the prince, so I will spare your life!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked away, stopped at the door, turned his back and said something, "I invite you to go. I wanted to tell you these words alone, but I didn't know it was just a rat! What kind of princes, just got one
It's just the light of the dead. General Shao, I'd better burn two more sticks of incense to thank Ning Wang Shang Jianbo for his spirit in heaven!"
After finishing speaking, the hall fell into silence.
After the Dazenshan disciples who were looking at each other withdrew, Shao Dengyun, who was behind the case, was speechless and faced the sky. He raised his head and closed his eyes, his cheeks full of tears, and he let out a faint sob.
The Sheep Shuang on the side also had a sad face, lifting his sleeves to wipe away tears. He knew best what was brooding about him...
In the courtyard, Guan Fangyi looked back three times with each step, looking behind her from time to time, then quickly followed Niu Youdao, and asked in a low voice next to Niu Youdao: "You are babbling a lot, is this really the prince's explanation?"
Niu Youdao paced, tilted his head and whispered: "Send a message to the prince and ask him to surrender!"
Guan Fangyi was stunned: "Surrender? Who? Shao Dengyun?"
Niu Youdao gave some secret advice.
Guan Fangyi rolled her eyes when she heard this. After listening, she whispered: "You are too wicked. Even Beizhou doesn't want to give Tianyumen. Is this okay?"
"In the future, don't think I'm hiding something from you or that I can't explain it all. Just do what I ask you to do and don't be nagging."
Provoked a scolding...
In Fufang Garden, Dugujing quickly came to a small courtyard.
Walking to the entrance of the main hall, he knocked on the closed door and saw Yu Cang sitting quietly cross-legged on the futon in the empty hall.
Dugujing walked to the side and knelt down, holding a letter with both hands, "Master, this is Niu Youdao's letter."
Yu Cang slowly opened his eyes, took the letter, and frowned after reading it, "Asking for Shao Pingbo, does Shao Pingbo's departure from Beizhou have anything to do with him? Is there any news about the situation in Beizhou?"
Dugujing: "I don't know yet. I should spend some time to find out."
Yu Cang pondered: "What does it mean that Shao Pingbo came to Qi with an entourage?"
He was a little confused about the situation. He received a message from Shao Pingbo, saying that he was escorting someone related to the situation in Qijing. Unexpectedly, after receiving the message, he discovered that the escort was actually Shao Pingbo himself.
Dugujing: "We are almost here, and we will know when the messenger arrives. It's just that Niu Youdao wants to ask for Shao Pingbo, how do you reply? The letter said that we can negotiate on any conditions, do you want to negotiate?"
Yu Cang shook his head: "He is still a dabbler in Nanzhou, but Shao Pingbo has the whole of Beizhou behind him. Give him Shao Pingbo? Is he kidding? Well... don't refuse in a hurry. Just reply to the letter and ask him what he can give us. First,
Please put off your reply and see what happens."
"Okay!" Dugujing agreed.
…
In the Yingwu Hall of Nanzhou Governor's Office, Shang Chaozong was pushing a wheelchair and standing in front of a map. Meng Shanming was sitting there, and several generals were gathered around, pointing at the map to discuss something.
Lan Ruoting came in from the outside, looked at the situation inside the house, "cough" and coughed with fists clenched.
Everyone turned around and saw that Meng Shanming knew that he had something to do and said: "You go out and discuss it first, and we'll talk about it later."
"Yes!" Several generals surrendered together.
After a few people left, Lan Ruoting took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Shang Chaozong, "Your Majesty, the Taoist Master has sent a message, asking us to recruit Shao Dengyun!"
"How can we tolerate this treasonous traitor!" Shang Chaozong replied angrily, grabbed the letter, and immediately lowered his head to see what was going on.
Meng Shanming was suspicious, "Recruit Shao Dengyun?"
Lan Ruoting nodded, "The letter didn't give any details. It just said that Shao Pingbo had abandoned Beizhou and fled. Beizhou is about to undergo a big change. We can take advantage of the situation and let's try to recruit Shao Dengyun using old feelings."
Meng Shanming was confused, "The south and the north are so far apart that we can't take care of the beginning and the end. To say the least, surrendering at this time is asking for trouble. How can the imperial court just sit back and watch?"
After reading the letter, Shang Chaozong handed it to Meng Shanming, his mood calmed down a lot, and he frowned, "The letter said that Shao Dengyun misses his father's old love and can recruit the old love. It is not that Shao Dengyun surrenders openly, but secretly.
Return to your heart and look forward to the future!"
Meng Shanming looked at the letter and muttered, "Shao did not rebel against Yan, but endured the humiliation to repay King Ning... If you can be persuaded by this reason and are willing to clear his name of treason, then the matter of recruiting him to surrender will be very promising!"
The three of them looked at each other and understood what Niu Youdao meant. As long as Shao Dengyun was willing to submit, they would say that Shao Dengyun did not betray the Yan Kingdom, but to help King Ning preserve his strength.
To put it bluntly, it was to persuade Shao Dengyun to surrender in the name of clearing him of treason.
The Yingwu Hall was quiet for a while. After a while, Meng Shanming, who was a little confused, asked doubtfully: "How could Shao Pingbo abandon Beizhou and run away?"
Lan Ruoting: "You can guess that Mr. Dao and Mr. Shao are sworn enemies, and the two of them are most likely to have sex again. These two are going to kill each other when they come and go. Between the two
He will not stop until he continues to cause trouble to the death, and Shao Pingbo will definitely not abandon Beizhou and flee for no reason, it must be a good thing done by Mr. Dao."
Shang Chaozong said to himself: "With the protection of Dachan Mountain and the secular power of Beizhou still in the hands of the Shao family, how can we force Shao Pingbo to flee?"
Meng Shanming handed the letter back to Lan Ruoting and sighed: "Our Taoist master has always done things in a hazy way. He doesn't take things seriously in order to leave room for improvisation. The process can be seen.
You are so dazzled that no one can figure out what he wants to do until the end. Stop guessing and wait until the end to see the result."
Shang Chaozong tried to ask: "Then do as the Taoist said?"
Meng Shanming smiled and asked, "What does the prince want to do?"
Shang Chaozong suddenly had a dry smile on his face, "It's better to do as the Taoist said. You won't lose anything. It's not a bad thing anyway. I will edit a book and send it to someone."
"Inappropriate!" Lan Ruoting waved his hand, "This letter should not be written by the prince. It is most appropriate for Meng Shuai to write a handwritten letter on behalf of the prince to surrender. If Meng Shuai promises to be a guarantee, Shao Dengyun will not have any doubts and will definitely believe it!"
Shang Chaozong nodded when he heard the words and understood what he meant. He had no prestige in front of Shao Dengyun. When he was on the battlefield, he was still a baby, but Meng Shanming was different. His words had weight with Shao Dengyun.
Meng Shanming thought for a moment and nodded slowly, "Okay, I will write this letter."
Lan Ruoting said again: "Don't just be gentle, you might as well add a hint of reprimand between the lines!"
Meng Shanming glanced at him and said, "Well, Xiaolan is gradually starting to look a little like Luo Shaofu, and she's about to leave."
"Uh..." It was Lan Ruoting's turn to laugh.
"Haha!" Shang Chaozong laughed.
Mengshan Ming also smiled.
…
The towering city walls stand tall and tall. At the city gate, vendors and footmen come and go, and the number of well-dressed people is unparalleled in other places.
Dozens of pioneers arrived outside the city and reined up their horses. Tang Yi, who was dusty with travel, raised his head and looked up at the towering towers, and finally arrived at the most prosperous and prosperous capital of the Wei Kingdom among the seven kingdoms.
The guards came forward and asked who they were. They reported that they were the Empress of the Shangqing Dynasty. The guards immediately ran back to report.
After a while, a woman came down from the tower, walked to Tang Yi, took out a piece of paper and showed it.
Tang Yi immediately jumped off the horse, took out a piece of paper, and compared it with the other party's.
A survey and comparison showed a perfect match, and a complete Chinese character "Tang" appeared on the paper.
After confirming that it was correct, the woman immediately let go and said with a smile: "Master Tang has worked hard all the way. Your Majesty ordered me to wait here. Please come with me."
Hearing that Prime Minister Wei personally sent someone to greet him, Tang Yi couldn't bear it. Tang Yi quickly raised his hands and said, "Thank you!"
The woman beckoned for a horse, climbed up, and personally led Tang Yi and others into the city.
With this woman opening the way, no one on guard dared to check.
On the hills outside the city, a man in slovenly clothes with a wine gourd hanging from his waist stood under a tree and watched from a distance. It was Zhao Xiongge.
Along the way, Zhao Xiongge was secretly escorting them. When he saw the group entering the city safely, he heaved a sigh of relief and came out.
The most prosperous place in the Seven Kingdoms, not to mention its prosperity.
Shangqingzong and his entourage arrived outside a heavily guarded mansion with green tiles and high walls. On the lintel of the high steps was a plaque with the word "Tianwei" written by the last emperor of Weiguo. Here is the chief minister of Weiguo.
The residence of Princess Xuanwei is also the official residence of the female Prime Minister who acts as Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Wei.
No one was allowed in, only Tang Yi was allowed to bring one person with him, and Tang Susu accompanied him.
The woman led the way, avoiding the strict confines of the mansion, and turning into the depths of the magnificent pavilions. On the way, she occasionally encountered female concubines in palace attire.
Arriving at a pavilion and waterside pavilion, the woman asked the two of them to wait and left to report.
