The first thousand three hundred and eighty-six chapters of the lost dog
Li Qi said it very tactfully, so tactfully that everyone knew what he wanted to do?
That is to eliminate the Li regime and re-incorporate Jiaozhi into the territory of the Song Dynasty.
And the concept he proposed that the emperor is the servant of the people, although it is a bit outrageous at the moment, is a real truth. Water can carry a boat and it can also capsize it. The emperor has been changing, but the people are still like that.
A group of common people, the emperor cannot live without the common people, but the common people cannot live without the emperor. The earth cannot revolve around one person, and it is clear at a glance which one is more important.
And this also poses a big problem for Liu Qingtan. If he agrees, not to mention that he does not have the power, even if he does, if he says this, it will be disloyal to the emperor. But if he does not agree,
Not to mention the distant situation, the battle in Shenglong Mansion is inevitable, and the people in Shenglong Mansion will face another catastrophe.
Now, the question has become very clear. Do you want to be the servants of the people or the masters?
Fortunately, Liu Qingtan did not have the power to decide all this, which made him feel more relaxed. He asked tentatively: "What if we don't agree?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "I don't like to blame others, because I know that people are selfish. Everything everyone does is considered from their own perspective. For me, it is correct.
So no matter how much you blame, you can't erase a person's selfishness. This is human nature. I have always felt that blaming is actually a waste of time, so I usually skip the blaming part and choose to punish.
It is also a selfish decision.
So I can understand whether you agree or not, but I also have my own plans, and I hope you can understand. But I must remind you. Your selfishness will not only harm you, but many others will be harmed by it.
, of course, if both of us regard the people as our interests, then we have a common purpose and we have enough reasons to pursue a win-win situation."
The words are full of threats both inside and outside.
Liu Qingtan snorted softly and said: "What you said sounds nice. But you also said that people are selfish. Who is willing to stick out his head and let others kill him?"
Li Qidao: "Except for Xian Ping, no one will die. If you accept our conditions, then you will be my people of the Song Dynasty, and all the past will disappear. As for your royal family, I can guarantee that not only will it not happen,
Hurt them, but also give them glory and wealth.
Of course, this must be exchanged for their power. This world is very fair and very realistic. Moreover, if they are willing to surrender, why should we kill them? Wouldn't it be better to let them go to Bianliang to enjoy life?
As for you, I have always believed in the ability of those who can live here. As long as you have the ability, you will be able to give full play to it. I will leave some people here to manage this area, because you officials who have lived here for a long time must be very
Understanding the local people's sentiments is what we need. As long as it is for the benefit of the people, I will do it. This is our bottom line. Above this, everything can be discussed.
Otherwise, there is no need to talk. I really want to tell you all the plans in my heart, but I think it is too early to talk about it now. We will talk in detail after you agree to our most basic conditions."
These words were very direct. There was no room left for Liu Qingtan. The only thing he could do was to go back and recover. His mission this time had been completed. He already knew the bottom line of the Song Dynasty. It was just whether they could use this bottom line.
If you accept it, it's still unclear.
........
"Privy Councilor, how do they still have the qualifications to bargain with us now? You don't have to tell them so much. Whether you want to surrender or fight, just give them these four words."
Standing in front of the camp gate, looking at Liu Qingtan's car as they drove away, Niu Gao said carelessly.
Zhao Jingyan smiled and said: "General Niu, the Privy Councilor said so much, just to tell them a reason to convince themselves and others."
"A reason to convince yourself?"
Niu Gao scratched his head, with an expression that seemed to understand.
Li Qi said seriously: "As I said before, I like to convince people with virtue."
I have known you for so long, and I have never seen you convince others with your virtue, but I have seen you lie to others a lot. Zhao Jingyan smiled softly and suddenly asked: "Then do you think they will agree?"
Li Qi smiled and said: "Didn't I say it a long time ago? They have no choice. Maybe they won't agree now, but it won't be long before they will definitely agree."
Zhao Jingyan asked curiously: "What do you mean?"
"Gao's family."
"Gao's family?"
Zhao Jingyan blinked her eyes, suddenly let out a sound, and said happily: "I understand."
Li Qi rolled his eyes and said, "I understand it so quickly. I'm still going to show off in front of you."
Yue Fei asked curiously: "Privy envoy, military advisor, what does this have to do with the Gao family?"
Li Qi said to Zhao Jingyan, "You better tell me."
Zhao Jingyan smiled and said: "The Gao family will definitely surrender to us first in Jiaozhi."
"ah?"
Yue Fei was shocked and said: "Will the Gao family come to surrender?"
Zhao Jingyan said: "Compared to the Jiaozhi royal family, the Gao family no longer has any choice or room for resistance. Whether they seek refuge in Jiaozhi or us, it actually makes no difference to them.
They are now homeless dogs. They will surrender to whoever can save their lives. Now Jiaozhi cannot protect itself. If they enter Shenglong City, they will still become our prisoners when we break through Shenglong City.
In this case, why bother taking so many detours? Why not just come to us directly? You may get more, and the Duan family behind will definitely eradicate them. No one in this world can save their lives except our Song Dynasty.
.”
Li Qi added: "Don't forget, there are still 20,000 Jiaozhi soldiers beside the Gao family. If we can take them down, the morale of Shenglong City will definitely fall to the bottom. I think they will definitely be among the ten soldiers in the west.
Surrender out of the city before Wan Dali's army arrives, so they can have a little more bargaining space."
Niu Gao said excitedly: "Yes. Why did I forget about Wu Jie and the others? It seems that everything is under the control of the Privy Council."
Li Qidao: "Every detail of the whole thing has been filtered through my mind thousands of times. I have spent so much effort, and I deserve all of this. Although it is said that people make plans and God makes things happen, but if you make ten
If you are successful, you will have a 90% chance of winning, which is actually very fair, and God will only favor those who work hard."
"Privy Councilor Jin Yu's kind words. We must keep them in mind."
"What good advice? I just want you to stop being lazy."
.........
.........
To the west of Shenglong Prefecture, there is a place called Zhanzuo County. At this time, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are stationed here. This soldier and horse are none other than the Gaojiao Alliance Army who escaped from Dali.
"call---!"
I saw an old man in rich clothes squatting by the creek and washing his face. He looked at his reflection in the water, his eyes filled with sadness. In just over a month, he seemed to have aged dozens of years.
This man was none other than Gao Mingshun, the former prime minister of Dali. A year ago he was still able to control the situation in Dali, but who would have thought that a year later, he would become a bereaved dog.
Things are unpredictable!
Thanks to Duan Zhengyan's failure in the first pursuit and Wu Jie's obstruction, they were given enough time to escape. Otherwise, they would have transported so much gold and silver jewelry. Whether they could escape from Dali was still a question.
.
"Report---!"
A flying horse came galloping here. Before the horse could stop, the guard jumped off the horse, walked quickly to Gao Mingshun, and said: "Inform the Prime Minister, the Song Army has surrounded Shenglong Mansion."
"What?"
Gao Mingshun's body swayed and he almost fell down. Fortunately, a follower next to him quickly caught him with quick eyesight and hands. But he couldn't care about his own body, so he took a step forward and said unwillingly: "What did you say?"
The sentinel said in a trembling voice: "Song---the Song army has surrounded Shenglong Mansion."
"Heaven is going to kill me!"
Gao Mingshun screamed sadly, his eyes darkened, and he fainted immediately.
This Jiaozhi place had placed all his hopes on it, but at this moment, he was completely desperate. He simply couldn't bear this kind of blow.
After nearly half an hour, Gao Mingshun came to his senses under the treatment of the imperial doctor. At this time, all the members of the Gao Group were standing in front of the bed. He glanced at everyone and lamented: "You all know it."
Many people were silent, and many people nodded slightly.
One person suddenly shouted in panic: "Xiangguo, what should we do now?"
The screams were so panicked that tears flowed down.
Gao Mingshun closed his eyes gently, shook his head and said, "I never imagined that the world is so big that there is no place for my Gao family."
Some people covered their faces and cried.
They have reached the edge of the cliff and there is no way to retreat, but they are very afraid of death and dare not fight to the death with the enemy.
At this time, a person suddenly stood up and said: "Uncle, there is no end to the road. Maybe we still have a way to survive."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the big tent was shocked and hurriedly looked for fame. The person who spoke was a young man named Gao Jie. He was the one who sent the bird's nests to Bianliang in the first place.
Gao Mingshun asked hurriedly: "Jie'er, you---do you have any idea?"
Gao Jie said: "There is only one person in this world who can save our family."
"who."
"Jie'er, who is that person?"
"Gao Jie, tell me quickly!"
Gao Jie hesitated for a while and said: "Uncles, if my nephew is wrong, please don't blame me."
"If anything is more difficult than now, please tell me quickly." Gao Mingshun said eagerly.
Gao Jie said: "This man is the Golden Knife Chef of the Song Dynasty."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
Gao Jie continued: "Although we have sworn hatred with the Duan family, we have no grudges with the Golden Knife Chef King, or with the Song Dynasty. They helped the Duan family to deal with us just because the Duan family was facing them.
, and we are on good terms with Jiaozhi, why don’t we take the initiative to seek refuge with the Song Dynasty? In this way, we can at least save our lives, which is consistent with our original intention of seeking refuge with Jiaozhi.”
Upon hearing this, Gao Mingshun felt that this statement made sense, and then frowned and said: "A few months ago, we might have been able to do this, but now we have been forced into a desperate situation. If we go to the Song Dynasty at this time, they will
Do you agree to protect our lives? Moreover, the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Duan family has always been very good."
Gao Jie said: "The Golden Knife Chef King has the final say here. My nephew once had a relationship with the Golden Knife Chef King. His actions are often unexpected. If we are willing to offer the money and the 20,000 Cochin soldiers,
I think he will promise to save our lives."
Gao Mingshun pondered for a while, then asked the others: "What do you think?"
"I think what Jier said is very reasonable. Only the Golden Knife Chef King can save us now."
"Yeah, why don't we try it."
...
The rest of the people agreed. They just wanted to save the lives of their entire family, and they really didn't dare to dream about the rest.
Gao Mingshun nodded and said: "Okay, Jie'er, I'll leave this matter to you."
"Uncle, please rest assured that my nephew will fulfill his mission." (To be continued...)
