Her face was slightly startled. Jin Wanyi knew that the other party would ask about this matter sooner or later. However, without this kind of relationship, if you want to win the other party's trust, even though you have a good personal relationship with the other party, you have to make the other party believe in yourself. Such matters are related to your life and fortune. Big things, I'm afraid they will be difficult.
There was a sad look in her eyes, and then she smiled again. Jin Wanyi simply smiled openly and said: "Sister, there is no need to hide it. My sister is living in the northwest and can only be rescued by the care of His Highness King Qin. It is also a blessing to be able to return to the imperial capital now." Blessings to His Highness the King of Qin."
She was a little embarrassed at first, but she saw that the other party did not show much pain. Instead, she saw the deep spring and dazzling look on the brows when the other party mentioned His Highness King Qin's name. The middle-aged woman thought about it and saw it. Come on, there is no year in this imperial capital where dozens or hundreds of officials are not imprisoned. Their wives, concubines, and children are either reduced to slaves or sent to the Jiaofang Department to become official prostitutes. Who cares how famous you are, I will call you immediately. Experience what it's like to be at the bottom of society. If you can meet one or two powerful people who like you, it is considered your blessing. Otherwise, you will spend your whole life hanging around in the Jiaofangsi until you grow old. If the other person can win the favor of His Highness King Qin, It was a blessing among the misfortunes, not to mention that with His Highness the King of Qin's current overwhelming power, everyone present would have to look up to the woman in front of them. Whether the original downfall was a disaster or a blessing, it seemed difficult to make a sudden conclusion.
"My sister is a lucky person. She has been blessed by God. She can be protected by His Highness the King of Qin, which is better than any other guarantee. Now His Highness the King of Qin is at the top of the empire. Even His Majesty the Emperor wants to give him three points. My sister heard what my family said that His Highness the King of Qin is currently marching south. During the Northern War, the prestige among the army was also rising day by day. Many people in the Imperial Guard hoped to follow His Highness the King of Qin in foreign expeditions and fight one or two big battles, which was better than staying in the imperial capital. Everyone was soaked in it. It’s getting moldy.” The middle-aged woman smacked her lips and sighed. She had stayed with her husband for a long time, and she had some understanding of her husband’s military affairs.
The Imperial Guards have been pampered all these years and have never left the capital to go to the battlefield. Although it has a long history, this army has never fought in a war. No matter how glorious your training and exercises are, it will never be considered elegant in the eyes of real soldiers. On the other hand, the city guards fought solidly with the original rebels and later the Kamans several times, especially in the confrontation with the Kamans. Although they suffered heavy losses, they also cost the Kamans a lot. At the cost of blood, he also won unanimous praise from the imperial side. As for the outcome, after all, the Kaman people are far stronger than the city guards in terms of overall strength, but it is no wonder that Yusuf.
Gently holding the other person's arm, Jin Wanyi affectionately pulled the other person slowly and walked out of the hall, while also thinking about what words to use to make the other person automatically take the bait.
"My sister is right. If an army is always at home and unable to go to the battlefield, its combat effectiveness will degrade sooner or later. Only an army that has been tempered countless times on the battlefield can become a real army. But now Although the empire is in chaos and there seems to be wars everywhere, if there is a civil war, it is better not to fight this kind of war, which will only bring harm to the people of the empire." Jin Wanyi deliberately guided the other party's thinking, "If you don't want to fight a civil war, , and I want to show off my skills on the battlefield, but now only His Highness King Qin has some opportunities."
The middle-aged woman's eyes lit up, and then she fell silent again. She seemed to be trying to figure out the meaning of the words of this woman who had an extraordinary relationship with His Highness King Qin, so that her husband could respect her. A middle-aged woman is not as simple as an ordinary woman. After years of living in the upper class, she has become a master. This kind of thing is not trivial. Even her own husband would not dare to express his opinion, let alone talk to her easily. Although His Highness the King of Qin has great power over the country, it is in Western Xinjiang, and this imperial capital is not the territory of His Highness the King of Qin. Whether it is the current Emperor, His Highness, or even His Highness the Sixth Highness, the power here is far stronger than that of the King of Qin, not to mention the throne. The news of changing people is also spreading in the imperial capital. What does His Highness the King of Qin think about it? Which side does he support? What does it mean to win over his husband at this time
"Haha, my sister is right. As a soldier, your duty is to expand the territory, defend the country and protect the people. If you get such an opportunity, I am afraid that every soldier is unwilling to give up. I think my husband is the same." Some vague answers seem to indicate something, but if you listen carefully, you can't hear anything else. However, Jin Wanyi knows that this has proved that her first step has been successful. The other party's vague response expresses this intention. She I firmly believe that with this good start, I will soon achieve my goal. Of course, this will require further efforts, but that doesn't matter, I have plenty of time.
This situation is just a microcosm of Jin Wanyi's daily activities. She was ordered to come to the imperial capital with no other purpose than to use her former father-in-law's influence in the imperial capital and her own network of connections in the upper class society of the empire as well as her current The special identity of the relationship with His Highness the King of Qin re-organized a group pro-His Royal Highness the King of Qin in the imperial system.
Of course, this cannot be achieved overnight, but now the situation of the battle for the throne between Situ Lang, Situ Tai and even Situ Biao is very chaotic. Many people are a little tired of the Situ family who is obsessed with internal fighting, especially the military. The generals of the Qin Dynasty saw that the generals of His Highness the King of Qin conquered India in the west, conquered Tengger in the north, attacked the Taiping Religion and the Kaman people in the east, invaded Tiannan and Burma in the south, and now unexpectedly annexed the Peninsula Alliance again. Such great military achievements. It also led to the emergence of a large number of famous generals. Guys who were previously unknown, such as Liang Chongxin, Cui Wenxiu, Mulige, and Hu Yanqiu, suddenly became frequent visitors in major media pages in the imperial capital. Even Bayinzhuo, Jin Zecheng, Shanyao, etc. Things that were not worth mentioning in the past also appear in the discussions of the people of the imperial capital from time to time.
On the other hand, looking at the armies within the empire, except for Yusuf's City Guard Corps, which performed well in the battle against the Kamans, the other major legions gathered in the imperial capital, including the Imperial Guard Corps, performed mediocrely and neither dared to take the initiative. Going to war against the Kamans and having no other chance to show off made the people of the empire have a worse and worse view of these hundreds of thousands of troops. Many civilian gentry have already criticized the empire for raising a bunch of waste that only consumes money and food. But it did not bring any benefit to the empire.
Facing the increasing criticism from the people, the imperial generals were also in an unspeakable embarrassing situation. The Third and Fourth Army Corps had not experienced major battles since their formation, while the Eighth and Ninth Army Corps had even greater combat effectiveness. It's not worth mentioning that the Imperial Guards have not left the capital for many years and are huddled in the imperial capital, arrogant and arrogant, but only God knows what is going on inside. The military generals are also looking for an opportunity to train. They also hope to have an opportunity to fight abroad to prove and train their troops. Even if they lose, it is better than huddled here like this.
Jin Wanyi wanted to take advantage of the psychology of the middle and upper echelons of the military to choose some targets who already had a negative attitude toward the Situ family. She used this mentality of the generals to be more helpless and helpless in this period of chaos to recruit or bribe Wu Feng. , win over, in short, use various means to get a group of help for Wu Feng. As Wu Feng said before Jin Wanyi left, no matter what method is adopted, as long as you can get a help, it will be a gain, and Jin Wanyi's actions are also There will be no risk. In this case, even if Jin Wanyi's actions are exposed, no one will really hold her accountable for her actions. After all, she is just a lobbyist, not to mention the great backer of His Highness King Qin. .
Of course, Jin Wanyi's actions are not unnoticed. Although she mostly adopts the method of private and secret contact to set targets for real objects, after all, to screen out these targets, it is necessary to cast a wide range of nets and wires. With Xijiang intelligence With the help of the system, Jin Wanyi was active at tea parties, cocktail parties and dances in the imperial capital's upper class society almost every afternoon and evening, which also attracted the attention of some interested people.
Seeing the young woman who was dancing and laughing among the crowd like a fluttering butterfly, the two beauties with somewhat similar looks who had been in the center of the other side were looking coldly at the similar person who had stolen the limelight of all the upper-class women in the imperial capital in recent days. When they saw their eldest sister Her eyes were filled with an indescribable feeling of hostility. The beauty who had been standing aside and looked like her younger sister couldn't help laughing out loud and said: "Sister, this bitch dared to rob your sister." The limelight is tolerable, but who can't be tolerated? Why don't we join in the fun, make a fuss, and ruin her interest."
Shaking her head slightly, she withdrew her gaze. The older Fengyun woman crossed her arms and snorted from her nose: "Hmph, if you fight with her, wouldn't it mean that you and my sisters are also on the same level as her? I didn't expect that. She has been trampled under her feet and can still turn over. It seems that Li Wufeng's bed is really useful. Quietly, are these people surrounding her going for her body or Li Wufeng's background? , I can’t even tell the difference.”
"Hehe, eldest sister, who told you not to seize the opportunity when Li Wufeng returned to Beijing last time? I don't believe that any man would not be interested in you after meeting eldest sister. The women of our Shi family have no history of losing to anyone. ." A look of confidence appeared on the face of the younger Huaxin woman, but then she changed the subject, "But to be honest, Li Wufeng's power is indeed increasing day by day. Aren't the newspapers writing about Xijiang again these days? Has the army fully entered the Peninsula Alliance area in the south? I heard that the main force of the Principality of Medan has been defeated, and the Principality of Medan is ready to surrender. It seems that the Peninsula Alliance will fall into the hands of Li Wufeng sooner or later. Now Li Wufeng has truly become There is another emperor in the empire."
