Chapter 197

Goose feathers are snowing, and they are covered in silver.

The Prince of Jin and a group of advisors sat in the warm conservatory to discuss matters.

Although the Jin Wangfu announced the uprising, it did not make much progress. There were winners and losers in the battle with the court, and there were occasional frictions with the surrounding small groups of peasant rebels.

Moreover, there are not as many people who came to defect as expected, and those famous families are in the wait-and-see stage.

Everyone was in a hurry and morale was low.

Seeing that this would not work, the Prince of Jin suggested that he should first annex his ally Wei Wangfu.

Although they were allies, they stabbed them at a critical moment, which made him sick.

Everyone responded and thought it was okay.

Once all the fiefs of the Wei Palace are included in the territory, it will have the strength to compete with the court in the world.

How to do it? Everyone worked together and unanimously stated that they could not do it with open swords and guns, and could only engage in conspiracy secretly and disintegrate from the inside.

The discussion was in full swing, and Prince Jin gradually had an idea in his heart.

He knew a secret about Prince Wei's mansion, and he could make more use of it and operate it well, causing chaos in Prince Wei's mansion.

At this moment, a subordinate shouted anxiously outside, "Sir, it's not good."

Prince Jin's expression changed, "Let someone come in."

The genus stumbled in and rushed in, with a panicked expression on his face. "The prince is not good..."

The Prince of Jin looked at him coldly, and his subordinates were startled. Realizing that he had said something wrong, he hurriedly made corrections, "Prince, I just got the tip, and the Du family army is going to join forces with Wei Wangfu to attack us."

The place was silent and everyone was shocked.

Prince Jin's expression changed greatly, "What did you say? How is this possible? The Du family's army has just finished fighting and needs a period of rest."

The subordinate immediately sent a report, and the Prince of Jin quickly browsed it. After reading it, his face changed drastically, and he handed the report to the advisor beside him.

Everyone took turns to watch, and their faces were not good-looking.

"General Xiliang sold supplies to the Prince of Wei's mansion, are they crazy? This is considered an enemy! Aren't you afraid of the court's blaming?"

Instant noodles? It is said that this is the magic weapon of the Du family's army's repeated victories, and it has always been a hidden treasure.

This time, it was actually sold to Wei Wangfu, what did you think?

"The county magistrate of Qingping also sent someone to the Prince Wei's mansion to talk secretly. I don't know how to persuade the King of Wei to join forces to divide the fiefs of the Prince of Jin's mansion."

The advisors were furious, "She is a wolf's ambition, and she also wants to be independent. What a Qingping county magistrate, it was a waste of the emperor to trust her so much, breaking thousands of years of rules for her, and making her a female official, huh, this is what her return."

"A woman actually wants to be self-reliant? Isn't she mentally ill? Women are long-haired and short-sighted, and they only know how to daydream all day."

They were scolded, but the information revealed in it made them tremble with fear.

There is no other reason, Xiliang and Jin Wangfu are next to each other, and the Du family's army is famous for being able to fight.

If they join forces with the Wei Palace again, will they still have a way to survive?

No, you can't make them allies.

"Is it a mistake? How could the officials of Xiliang agree to such a ridiculous plan? No one will control her? Why doesn't Du Shuai suppress her?"

The Prince of Jin was not surprised. If Mu Wanqing followed the rules, she would not have reached the current high position.

She is an ambitious person who dares to think and do.

"Don't be nervous, everyone, I dare to assert that the Du family's army will not rashly go to war with our Jin Palace. They have been fighting for so long, and they are already exhausted and have no ability to fight again..."

Before the words were finished, a hurried voice came from outside, "Sir, the Du family army made a surprise attack on Xucheng, and Xucheng asked for reinforcements."

Xucheng is not far from Fufeng City. It is an important military base of Jinwangfu with iron ore!

Du Jiajun chose this city to attack because he saw the target and sealed his throat with one move.

Counselors:  …

I didn't expect the slap to come so quickly.

Prince Jin's face turned green, "Is Du Shaoxuan crazy?"

The Du family's army has been stationed at the Xiliang border gate for a hundred years.

But never a civil war!

Without the court's summons, any army is not allowed to transfer troops without authorization. How could the Du family's army dare to violate the law?

Some people couldn't help complaining, "Mu Wanqing didn't keep her promise, and she promised that there would not be another war. How could she just fight if she said hello? She didn't even say hello."

However, some people have a different opinion, "What does the Du family's elite dispatch have to do with Mu Wanqing? She can't be the master of the Mu family's army."

"Last time she also brought Du Jiajun."

"Different."

The counselors actually quarreled, "Why do you keep talking to Mu Wanqing?"

"I'm just telling the truth, forget it, it doesn't make sense to say it now."

This is not the most sassy operation, and more sassy will come soon.

"Sir, a letter from Coach Du."

Everyone looked at each other, what the hell?

It was Du Shaoxuan's letter. He wrote three lines of words in a simple and clear way. Do you want to go to war? Give me money if you don't want to! It's like opening up the army's military resources.

Anyway, just one meaning, you give the best, if you don't give it, you will grab it, anyway, there will be iron ore.

md, who told you to attack? The Prince of Jin couldn't help but swear.

"When did Du Shaoxuan become so shameless? It costs two million taels when he opens his mouth, why doesn't he grab it?"

He was so angry that he couldn't care about his image, and could not wait to tear Du Shaoxuan to pieces.

A subordinate said weakly, "This is Ming Robbery."

"Ah, I understand, Du Jiajun has wiped out his family property and has no money in his pocket, so he came to fight the autumn wind."

This explanation is very reasonable. Although they are all from Daqi, you are in trouble. There is nothing wrong with the Du family looking for a traitor to fight the autumn wind.

Everyone looked at each other, especially speechless.

"md, how did the Du Jiajun learn the way of the barbarians?"

The barbarians came out to plunder without food, and ran away when they robbed them.

The Prince of Jin's heart was full of powerlessness. He and Du Shaoxuan were indeed natural enemies.

"What should we do now?"

A counselor said cautiously, "Let's give money to avoid disaster."

The Prince of Jin's face was not good-looking, and someone couldn't help shouting angrily, "What? How can this be possible?"

"Two million will definitely not work, give one or two hundred thousand away." A hint of ill will flashed in the counselor's eyes, "Also, let Xiliang sign an agreement that will never infringe on the fiefs of Jin Wangfu."

Others thought for a while, "I think it's feasible, just use the money to send the beggars, by the way, we can use the materials we don't want to pay for it."

"The agreement is in hand, and the handle is in our hands. Are we afraid that they will fail?"

The opinions of everyone are quite consistent, and they all tend to give, and the details should be discussed in detail.

The Prince of Jin's heart is full of mixed feelings, and he said it so nicely. In fact, they are all afraid of the Du family army, and dare not directly confront the elite of the Du family army, right?

"Aren't you afraid that Xiliang will tear up the agreement?"

The subordinate chuckled, "Sir, we can transfer the agreement to the capital and use the hands of civil and military officials to kill them."

Others echoed excitedly, "I think it's feasible."

The matter was settled like this, the Prince of Jin personally wrote a reply letter, and invited Du Shaoxuan to go there in person and have something to say.

He knew Du Shaoxuan's character well and felt that he could have the upper hand in the negotiation.

Soon after, he received an echo, "What? Mu Wanqing is here to negotiate? The location is set in Xucheng?"

His reaction was too great, and his subordinates were a little strange, "Is there something wrong?"

Can the Crown Prince of Jin say that he is a little embarrassed by Mu Wanqing? Mu Wanqing's behavior is too arrogant, she must not.

He wants a face!

Backyard, Jin Court

Mu Jinyao was dressed in fancy clothes, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, as graceful and luxurious as a blooming peony.

The prince and concubine were put on hold, and the prince and concubine were not there. She was the first person in the backyard and was in charge of the housework of the palace.

She took care of the Prince Jin's mansion in an orderly manner, showed strong management skills, and was gentle and appropriate, winning the heart of the Prince of Jin.

"You asked me to negotiate on your behalf? Negotiate with Xiliang? I must have misheard."

"That's right, Xiliang sent Mu Wanqing, and it's fair to send a woman here." The Prince of Jin did not go around in circles with her, but made a straightforward request.

"Of course, the negotiation is a pretense. You are just putting on a name. Your most important task is to find a way to convince Mu Wanqing to make her an alliance with me."

This time, don't talk about digging corners, just about forming alliances.

For such an important matter of negotiation, it is natural that the cronies should be fully responsible, but Mu Jinyao cannot.

Mu Jinyao was stunned again, "Alliance?"

He didn't succeed in digging people last time, the bamboo basket was empty, and Mu Wanqing slammed it. Has he forgotten all about it?

Ambitioners are usually thick-skinned, dark-hearted, and shameless.

As long as the goal can be achieved, what about the means?

The Prince of Jin looked very complicated, "I have to admit that she is smarter than the average woman, Xiliang did not cause any trouble in her hands, and the logistics of the army did not go wrong, she is a powerful character, I want to befriend her. , mutual benefit and mutual benefit.”

In fact, he kept staring at Xiliang's movements.

He suffered a big loss last time. He wanted to make a comeback, but Xiliang was like a monolith, and he had no way to start.

He saw Mu Wanqing's powerful ruling ability and unparalleled means.

However, Mu Wanqing also has weaknesses. She wants to be independent, and this is where he can start.

Weaknesses can be exploited.

Mu Jinyao pursed her lips, this dog man was lying to her.

Talking about making good friends, in fact, she just wanted to pit Mu Wanqing. She didn't know the specific plan, but she pushed her out and rushed in front, this man.

The problem is, Mu Wanqing is not an ordinary person, who can play who, don't know yet.

She knows Mu Wanqing's methods well. At the age of fourteen, she could kill countless people under the horse. Now that she is older, she must be even more powerful.

"It's very difficult. Mu Wanqing is arrogant in her bones, and she doesn't like you or me."

The Prince of Jin had no confidence at first, but after discovering Mu Wanqing's weakness, he felt that it was okay again.

"There is nothing difficult in the world, I'm just afraid that someone with a heart will let her make an offer. There are no permanent friends, only permanent interests." Prince Jin pondered for a while and made a promise. "If you do this, I will consecrate you as the queen."

Mu Jin was silent for a long time, thinking too far, not even a single glance, and was already thinking about the choice of the queen.

Do men love brain supplements so much? Or is this dog thing more daring to dream?

She looked at him affectionately, as if looking at her own beliefs, her eyes were full of affection, "Yes, for your great cause, I will do my best, even if I sacrifice my life, I will help you do it."

The Prince of Jin was very satisfied with her, smart but not revealing, capable but not flamboyant, gentle and considerate, and deeply in love with him, willing to die for him.

This is the woman he wants!

What kind of woman is Mu Wanqing? No man could stand her, not one.

Hey, why do you think of her again?
