"Brothers Gongsun keep talking about the future, but they don't know what the future looks like in your minds?" Gongsun Su did not hide his contempt for Meng Guiyu in his tone. Meng Guihan couldn't help but glare at him, but Meng Guiyu Calmly, he waved his hand to stop his younger brother's attempt to stand up for him, and said slowly, "Is it to be granted a title of marquis, to be prime minister, to be rewarded with millions of dollars, or to be given great power?"
Gongsun Su said expressionlessly: "These three are all human beings, but I don't know what confidence you have to give any of them to us?"
Meng Guiyu stared at his face, and after a moment, he laughed triumphantly and pointed in the direction of the palace behind him: "First, as we all know, my sister once gave birth to a son and a daughter for Prince Guangling. The little prince is still here. , something went wrong when the little prince was brought into the palace on the day he landed, and he died young."
"However, the child who died at that time was not actually the little prince, he was just swaddled by the little prince."
"As for the reason, this is not important. Anyway, the real little prince can prove his royal status through the blood of His Majesty, that's all!"
"I am going to adopt this child to the Shu sisters, and they will raise it personally and make it the East Palace!"
"Secondly, the Shu sisters were very frightened by last night's incident. They summoned me alone just now. They just want the people who participated in the rescue last night to preside over the imperial army and avoid the situation of rebellion like the commander-in-chief!"
"The Crown Prince's biological uncle is indeed a step forward." Gongsun Su said lightly, "But... how can you guarantee that your nephew will live to succeed to the throne? Shu Zhaoyi's promise? A generation of women, it is all thanks to His Majesty that he is where he is today. That's all. Now that the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army has rebelled, the entire Forbidden Army is in chaos, and the border troops cannot catch up in a short time. Even if you nominally take the position of the Commander-in-Chief of the Forbidden Army, not to mention whether these hundreds of thousands of troops are willing to obey you. People who are a mess in riding and shooting, don't forget what you just said, the reason why we are doing so smoothly tonight is not due to our own management these days, but... that person's intention!"
"To put it bluntly, Mr. Marquis, you are in a state of distress right now, not to mention that you are not able to protect yourself, right?"
"Right now, I'm still thinking about recruiting these reckless people like us... I'm very curious, what exactly does the Marquis want us to do?"
He narrowed his eyes, "You know, with my relationship with Mi Zhen, even if he doesn't do anything next, as long as he becomes successful in the end, even for the sake of face, my benefits will be indispensable!"
"It is also possible that in order to completely cover up the truth of the old Sea Lord's death and give the Sea Lord honor?" Meng Guiyu sneered and said, "As for why I want to recruit several Sea Lords, and whether they are from rough backgrounds, it's It doesn’t matter. It’s just a matter of fancying a few people’s talents!”
"After all, Shu Zhaoyi asked me to draw up an application form. In this case, I must be promoted. For the position of commander of the Chunbo Lake Navy, it seems that there are more suitable ones, both in terms of ability and familiarity with me. Can you choose?"
He said slowly, "I won't say anything secretly in front of Mingren. I intend to give the position of General Zuo Weiwei to Hai Zhu. But... to put it bluntly, my relationship with Hai Zhu doesn't seem to be deep enough to give. The Lord of the Sea is so prosperous and wealthy without asking for anything in return, right?"
Gongsun Su said tit for tat: "If it were before last night, it would be natural for the Marquis to say this. But now, don't you feel guilty for mentioning this? The commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army was instigated by the Gaomi King to rebel against him. That Prince is now Even if we retreat to Chang'an City, we can come back at any time!"
"There are no soldiers and horses in the vicinity of Chang'an that can suppress them. When the border troops come to Qinwang, I'm afraid the day lilies will be cold!"
"In this situation, if we remain as unknown as we are now, I will look back and see that the situation is not right, so I will just get a few mounts and leave!"
"If you are promoted by the Marquis, firstly, in the eyes of the world, you will be deeply favored by the emperor. Secondly, it will also attract the attention of King Gaomi, which may be extremely detrimental to our family members in Chang'an City!"
"This is a completely harmful thing without any benefit... The Marquis wants to take it as a benefit. Is it possible that he is deliberately entertaining us?!"
Meng Guiyu said with a smile but not a smile: "Haizhu, you also said that the reason why we were able to arrive at Hehuan Palace in time last night to prevent King Gaomi from forcing the palace was ultimately because of that person's intention! In this case, even if King Gaomi is now Retreating to Chang'an and still thinking of resisting, who do you think will give him this chance?!"
"This person's defeat is only a matter of time. Now Zhaoyi's promise is a once-in-a-lifetime promotion opportunity. It's not an exaggeration, right?!"
Gongsun Suhe said: "Then why did you want King Gaomi to be defeated? Just now you said that you were shallow and could not figure out the emperor's master's thoughts. However, although I am a rough man, I have some ideas, that is, the emperor's master is loyal to Mi Zhen. However, King Gaomi prefers the crown prince, so the emperor’s master wants to prevent King Gaomi from harming Mi Zhen if he succeeds in forcing the palace, so of course he must be stopped!"
"In this case, why should I give up Mi Zhen and choose you?! What you can give today will not be worth mentioning in the hands of Mi Zhen tomorrow!"
"If the Emperor's Master really helps the prince wholeheartedly, I will naturally be willing to accept the defeat!" Meng Guiyu said without giving up, "The question is, does the Emperor's Master really care about Mi Zhen?! Not to mention that the Emperor's Master has not even publicly disclosed his master and apprentice until now. There is no meaning of relationship, just say that since the Imperial Master has the background as last night in the Forbidden Army, why does Mi Zhen need to arrange for you to work under me?!"
Gongsun Suyi frowned. Because he was not very familiar with Huan Guanlan, and was repeatedly told by Gongsun Tu not to ask Rong Suihe about Huan Guanlan when he was still alive, he had no idea what the imperial master did when he was hiding on Tortoiseshell Island. not very clear.
Lian Jishan bandits only found out about Meng Jiaqian after the news of his ambush and defeat reached Chang'an.
Huan Guanlan's layout among the Forbidden Army is even more unclear.
But Meng Guiyu is right. If Huan Guanlan had considerable say in the Forbidden Army and it was given to Rong Suihe, Rong Suihe would not have had to place people like Gongsun Su into the Chunbo Lake Navy at all!
And others don't know it, but Gongsun Su understands that Rong Suihe doesn't want them to join the Forbidden Army as a pretense, but because he really hopes that they can achieve something!
"Perhaps the Imperial Master is here to hone his secrets." Gongsun Su frowned and said something that he didn't even believe. "It is said that jade cannot be polished until it becomes a weapon. How can someone like the Imperial Master pamper and pamper his disciples? He must be acting as if he is alone. To cultivate.”
Meng Guiyu immediately retorted: "Isn't Prince Mi Zhen's experience in Western Xinjiang enough training? Why bother? The Imperial Master should know that going too far is not enough!"
He added, "What's more, even if we take ten thousand steps back, the emperor's master is loyal to Mi Zhen. Mi Zhen is now thousands of miles away. Since ancient times, a country cannot be without a king for a day!"
Hearing this, Gongsun Su and Shao Yan's expressions changed!
Luan Yusi blurted out: "King Gaomi didn't attack Hehuan Palace last night. Isn't your Majesty still fine?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he had woken up and his expression suddenly froze: Meng Guiyu had just mentioned that his nephew, the little prince born to Concubine Meng and King Guangling was still alive, implying that he could use his uncle. As a regent, if you say "a country cannot live without a king" now, what does it mean
He wanted to kill Emperor Xuan Jing and make his direct nephew the new king! ! !
According to Meng Guiyu's strength, this kind of thing would have been impossible.
The problem is that King Gaomi happened to be rebelling at this moment. Even if he retreated at this moment, if something happened to Emperor Xuanjing, he might not be able to be blamed!
And the Meng family, who had been in intrigues with the King of Gaomi and divided the court equally for many years, last night destroyed three pillar-level elders such as Zheng Hou, Wu Anbo, and Cheng Yangbo in one fell swoop. Even the mainstays such as Meng Boxen, Meng Bomei, and Meng Jiayan died. Seven, seven, eight, eight!
Although there are still some outstanding disciples of the Meng family who are not in Chang'an, such as Meng Boqin's family, they are all far away and cannot quench their thirst.
At this moment, Meng Guiyu is probably the most outstanding disciple inside and outside Chang'an City.
Even if everyone knows that he has a bad relationship with the third-bedroom man, as long as he doesn't clearly show that he is not of the same mind as the third-bedroom man, and as a descendant of the Meng family, he can gather his party members, or to be frank, There is no problem in taking advantage of the situation.
Now that we have the power, the border troops cannot interfere with Chang'an for the time being. In the land of Gyeonggi, whoever controls the imperial army has the final say!
So even if Meng Guiyu's control over the Forbidden Army is neither as good as that of King Gaomi, nor as good as that of Huan Guanlan, whose life and death is a mystery, as long as Huan Guanlan does not want King Gaomi to succeed in usurping the throne, he will have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation to kill King Gaomi and support his nephew Cheng Bit!
Don't even look for opportunities. Judging from the situation where King Gaomi fell short at the critical moment last night, if Huan Guanlan...if this imperial master was really still alive, he might not be willing to choose King Gaomi!
So, Meng Guiyu's nephew is not even a full year old yet. Isn't becoming an emperor just a title
By then, wouldn't it mean that everything would be decided by him, and he would repeat the same path as Zheng Hou and lose all power? !
Luan Yusi's face turned pale and he looked at Meng Guiyu in horror.
However, Meng Guiyu ignored his intention and only stared at Gongsun Su: "Master of the Sea, I seek wealth and honor in danger, and I will be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister right before my eyes. Let's see if you dare!"
Gongsun Su also looked at him. After a moment, he exhaled and smiled bitterly: "Master Hou, what else can you say now? You have already said this, do we still have room to refuse?!"
Seeing Meng Guiyu smile slightly, he suddenly changed his stern tone, "But if the Marquis thinks that by playing such a trick, he can take our lives and kill us and do nothing but sacrifice his life... That is a wrong idea!!!"
"We, the Gongsun family, worked so hard to get ashore just to live a peaceful life, not to continue begging for food!"
"How could it be?" Meng Guiyu achieved his goal, felt relieved, and said with a smile, "Actually, I just hope that you can cover up something for me in front of the prince!"
Gongsun Su breathed a sigh of relief, but Meng Guiyu continued, "Of course, this is a serious matter. Although I trust you, will you also give me a certificate?"
Is this about applying for a certificate of honor
Gongsun Su suddenly narrowed his eyes: "What is the certificate that the Marquis wants?"
"There are relatives of Prince Mi Zhen who are still in Chang'an, but these old masters are already in their old age, so I don't dare to disturb them!" Meng Guiyu said, "As for Ning Weihou and his son, they belong to Hai Zhu. Of course I also hope that my in-laws and son-in-law are safe! There is a person, if the Lord of the Sea is willing to lend his head, then you and I will be like full brothers!"
Gongsun Su exchanged glances with Shao Yan and others, and said, "Please give me a clear explanation from the Marquis!"
"Shengxi!" Meng Guiyu narrowed his eyes, "The origin of this person, it is said that he was originally a slave on Tortoiseshell Island? He is an old servant of the Sea Lord. Even if he was later given to Mi Zhen County Prince as a book boy, he became the County King's confidant ... As the old master, it is natural for Sea Lord to deal with him, right?!"
"No!" Gongsun Su denied it and said expressionlessly, "Master Marquis, please don't joke. Since you know everything about Tortoiseshell Island as if you have personally experienced it, don't you know that Sheng Xi is the number one under Mi Zhen?" A master, especially good at concealed assassinations! If he is to be used as a surrender, who knows if we will send him to his door to test the knife?!"
Meng Guiyu smiled and said: "Why should Sea Lord worry? Now that I have said this, how can I not consider this person's martial arts skills? As long as Sea Lord is willing to take action, I will give Sea Lord the chance!"
