"Did I do what happened that time?" The uncle and nephew arrived at the back room. The old servant was bringing tea and cakes, but Zhao Shi dismissed him. He looked at the door closed and there was no third party in the courtyard outside. The figure's expression changed, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Or did I add fuel to the flames?!"
Rong Suihe took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Not bad!"
"Why?!" Although Zhao Shi was standing in front of the urn dog, he had already made up his mind. When he heard this, he couldn't help but feel angry. He almost wanted to smash the tea bowl in front of him on the head. He took a deep breath and reluctantly Suppressing his anger, he asked in a low voice, "Not to mention how difficult it is for the Northern Xinjiang Army to save some wealth, let's just say that I made a mistake in letting Meng Boqin take the troops and baggage with Northern Xinjiang, Chang'an, and the entire Central Plains, and went to Ruru... What’s the benefit of making a mistake for us and me?”
"My uncle was angry and refused to let him go to Ruru. If he continued to stay in Damu, what would happen?" Rong Suihe said calmly, "Although Zheng Hou and others are gone, the Meng family has spent countless Ten years of hard work, thanks to Meng Boqin’s cultivation!”
"The 800,000 Northern Xinjiang troops are facing Meng Boqin, and they already account for the majority!"
"The Meng family suffered heavy casualties this time. The Northern Xinjiang army has no sympathy for Meng Boqin!"
"Even if Meng Boqin is not very talented, but with that foundation, he lingers in Northern Xinjiang and does not think he has any way to deal with him in a short time?"
Zhao Shi was silent. After a while, he said coldly: "He is indeed very talented and ignorant, otherwise he would not have been suppressed by Meng Boqin for so many years! However, as I said, due to the death of Zheng Hou and others, Meng Boqin in the army was quite embarrassed. pity!"
"So if Meng Boqin continues to refuse Nan Dong to avenge Zheng Hou and the others, his sympathy will at least turn into contempt and disdain!"
"As for the South East, a general like Meng Boqin, who is not very talented, is only entrenched in the northern border that the Meng family has helped him manage for many years. Even if he can barely cope with the expedition from the east, he will definitely be full of mistakes!"
"At that time, our chance will be denied!"
"Ruming, I allowed Meng Guiyu to instigate his cousin to turn the chaos in Northern Xinjiang upside down and leave... With Ruru as my backer, I must turn around and attack Jizhou immediately!"
"He asked me, what could I do to resist Northern Xinjiang at that time?!"
When he said the last sentence, Zhao Shi couldn't hold back the anger in his chest, and his voice rose up, almost roaring!
However, Rong Suihe was calm: "Resist? Meng Boqin has gone and joined Ruru, but he can't come to attack Northern Xinjiang, so why should he consider resisting?"
Zhao Shi was stunned for a moment and said, "What do you mean?"
"Because Ruru didn't know where he was at all. He was the one Ruru wanted to kill the most at that moment. When they wanted to attack Damu, their first choice was Xijiang!" Rong Suihe said lightly, "Uncle should I know that their new khan, Nafuzhen, was once his prisoner. Even after he became khan, he was once threatened by him. Well, it should be said that so far, he was wrong. He was afraid of him and wanted to kill him. quick!"
"As for Ru Ming, he had just sweated profusely. Even if the throne of Khan was passed to him personally by Chen Liyu, it would take a long time to consolidate his position. Moreover, his good friend Turuti was in his lap, which made him more or less afraid... Therefore, we don’t dare to attack Western Frontier immediately!”
Zhao Shiru frowned and said: "I told him about that when I first came to Northern Xinjiang. I asked Dengchen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson as a condition in exchange for Dengchen Liyu to help me with the plot before he died!" He gave up attacking Western Xinjiang and switched to Northern Xinjiang... He said at the time that the plan was very good. Why did I change it just a few days ago?"
"I'm used to such orders being changed day by day. Did I lie to him about the plan from the very beginning?! Or did I know that he would never agree to me luring Meng Boqin to join Ruru, so I deliberately told him something first? Will he accept the ploy as a cover?!"
Rong Suihe smiled, his smile was elusive, and he couldn't guess what he was thinking, so he said slowly: "Why is uncle so angry? He can tell you all the reasons!"
He said, "Uncle, first of all, let Meng Boqin do nothing without rest, and simply lead his troops to join Ruru, and before leaving, he would turn the outside of Jizhou City upside down, and try his best to leave you and the others in a mess! Such a vicious plan , has nothing to do with him at all, it’s all the fault of Marquis Chongxin of Chang’an!”
Zhao Shi didn't quite believe it: "Even if Meng Guiyu is the fourth brother of the Meng family, he has never been favored by the clan. Is he the cousin of Meng Boqin who has broken bones and connected tendons! In the past, there may have been a lot of knots, then Now Zheng Marquis and others are dead and wounded, and the Meng family is so big only supported by the two brothers, but instead of supporting each other, they come up with such bad ideas for the brothers, is that crazy?!"
He added, "What's more, Meng Guiyu took advantage of the changes in Chang'an to get the opportunity to take charge of the Forbidden Army. If Guo knew that his cousin's family had rebelled against the country, would his position as commander of the Forbidden Army be very secure?!"
The most important thing to ask for is, "The Forbidden Army has been divided! Even if there is no division, a total of 400,000 troops are in Meng Guiyu's legs. How can an army that has been stationed in the imperial garden for many years and has never seen what a serious battlefield looks like for many generations? Can the border army’s wrong leg?!”
"Meng Guiyu did not win over Meng Boqin's cousin, but instead coaxed him to go to the enemy's country. Is he so arrogant that he thought that as the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army, he could sweep across Tiandong with just a few men and horses in his legs? So he is completely unreasonable. Do you need Meng Boqin’s help?!”
"Uncle, if Meng Guiyu wanted to sweep across Tiandong, why did he rely on the few men and horses in his legs?" Rong Suihe heard this, shook his head and said, "Don't forget that the three major frontier armies and the coastal navy were very powerful at that time. Stand still!"
"If he has a weak foundation and cannot move; if the Southern Xinjiang Army is unsure of what to do in the future, it will not dare to act rashly; if the Northern Xinjiang Army cannot be restrained by you and Meng Boqin! As for the Coastal Navy, due to the lack of care of the imperial court in those years, it has been with the Western Xinjiang Army It's the same as before, it's been losing ground, and all the navy's abilities are in the water. In Chang'an's situation, the three major frontier armies haven't moved, and they don't want to take the risk of getting involved."
"So Meng Guiyu doesn't need to think about doing too much with the few soldiers and horses in his legs. He can just kill the Gaomi King!"
"Once King Gaomi dies, Bidong can return to Chang'an and personally refute the words of 'substitute'!"
"No matter how stupid Dong is, he will not be the rightful master of that day!"
"So far, there are no decent reinforcements in Linyuan. Is it because the Tiandong people are not sure whether he is still alive and are afraid of becoming an accomplice of a treacherous person, so they are holding back!"
"Once we know that Bidong is here, everything is no longer the nonsense of King Gaomi... Do you think those waiting states and counties will continue to hesitate? Will they definitely follow the King!"
When Rong Suihe said this, he smiled lightly, "Then, Meng Guiyu, who has done a great job in rescuing the driver and is the nephew of the Empress Dowager, can take advantage of this situation to attack him!"
"After all, no matter how bad the relationship between him and King Gaomi is, he is still his biological father and son, right?"
Zhao Shi's expression changed and he murmured: "If Meng Guiyu had no such idea... then he really doesn't need to care too much about Meng Boqin!"
Because I just want the emperor to be on my side and hold on to my righteousness, even if I can't defend Chang'an, I will fight and retreat in the worst case, and let Emperor Xuanjing and the Queen Mother move to the rear and plan for it slowly.
Unless Rong Sleeping Crane is able to sweep across Tiandong by then, if he spends so much time in the east, the port will be defeated sooner or later!
After all, although Rong Suihe was not the emperor's nephew, nor was he recognized as talented, the Shu sisters had once asked him to be adopted by Emperor Xuanjing as the crown prince, but due to various reasons, that was not done.
Therefore, he did not deny the heirs of King Gaomi.
Then when Meng Guiyu persuades Emperor Xuanjing to choose another junior from the clan to adopt him as his heir, and allows Suihe to raise an army, it will mean rebellion, rebellion, or parricide!
It’s an unjust act of Ding Ding!
In this way, all his excellence can be summed up in one sentence: How can you be a thief when you are a beautiful woman
And since Meng Guiyu planned to wrong Rong Suihe in this way, Meng Boqin's existence, even if not counting the grievances between the cousins, was aimed at Meng Boqin's military power and became a thorn in the side of his cousin!
After all, Meng Guiyu coerced the emperor to order the princes and called on Tiandong to jointly attack Rong Suihe. The ready reason was whether the king of Gaomi rebelled against the traitors, rebelled against the king, and intended to kill the king. Such a crime would implicate his family, especially whether he would hold his legs. The biological son of military power, is it a matter of course!
But what about Meng Boqin
But Meng Guiyu's cousin couldn't use the same method to make the wrong payment.
The most important thing is that Empress Dowager Meng is here.
Among the Meng family members, Queen Mother Meng was the most ruthless towards the big family.
Meng Boqin was originally one of the most beloved nephews of the Queen Mother. At that time, when Zheng Hou and others were all killed, it was almost obvious how protective the Queen Mother would be towards Meng Boqin!
Even if Meng Guiyu worked hard to protect the Queen Mother and Emperor Xuan Jing, once Meng Boqin led his army to join the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother would most likely forget Meng Guiyu's contribution, but she would try her best to help Meng Boqin in front of Emperor Xuan Jing. Seek benefits!
By then, Meng Guiyu will be nothing more than a stepping stone for his cousin!
Even if the Queen Mother is killed, even if Meng Guiyu's plan goes well, there are many things that will inevitably require the Queen Mother's help. After all, his foundation is shallower than Rong Suihe's, and his reputation is far less famous than Rong Suihe's, but not No matter what the occasion, he can hold the scene!
Secondly, Meng Boqin holds the military power, making him the most powerful Northern Xinjiang army in Damu. Even if the Queen Mother doesn't intervene, once they enter the capital, it's hard to say who has the final say between the two cousins.
Could it be that Meng Guiyu simply tried to persuade his cousin to defect to Ruru!
In this way, even if a future trouble is eliminated in advance, he will need to wholeheartedly deal with the Gaomi King and his son when he comes to Donglai!
Zhao Shi thought for a long time and said dejectedly: "But how can Meng Guiyu solve the problem that affects him because of Meng Boqin's rebellion?"
"Rebuked Meng Boqin, took over the position of the head of the Meng family, opened an ancestral hall, and ousted Meng Boqin's family." Rong Suihe said lightly, "Even under the banner of cleaning up the family, he offered a reward for his head... Anyway, he has been jealous of Meng Boqin for a long time, so he can be cruel. Come. Oh, what was the Queen Mother thinking in Buli's mind at that time? She is in his lap, so I must cooperate."
After a pause, he said, "By the way, don't worry, I will take over the Meng family's legacy throughout Damu!"
Zhao Shi took a deep look at him: "I don't seem to be surprised? Could it be that when I first came into contact with him, I could tell whether he was that kind of person? Then I dare to use him? His Ruming's power and position... has surpassed mine Are you under control? Don’t I feel regretful?”
