Cangzhou Meng family
The four great gates of Dongqing were the Feng clan in Shangyang, the Wang clan in Langya, the Xie clan in Huanen and the Meng clan in Cangzhou.
Most of the Feng clan in Shangyang are Qingliu, and there are no more than three or four thousand family members. All-rounder in civil and military affairs, from the dignitaries of the Great Xia Dynasty to the present.
Only the Meng clan of Cangzhou, with a heavy army in hand, was trusted by the emperor.
The Marquis of Zhenbei was a high-status master, but was weakened by the Dongqing Emperor in various ways and seized military power. A few years ago, the Marquis of Zhenbei led troops to help Nansheng, but the supervisory army had a grudge against the Marquis of Zhenbei, causing the soldiers to die. The casualties were heavy, and the current Zhenbeihou Mansion has long since fallen into disrepair, and its people have withered.
In order to stabilize the frontier situation, the emperor reused the Cangzhou Meng clan, which made the already powerful Cangzhou Meng clan even more arrogant and invincible.
How arrogant are they
A few years ago, when the people in Cangzhou were in chaos, the emperor not only did not scold the Meng family, but condoned them to slaughter the mob and use violence to control violence.
It stands to reason that this Cangzhou Meng family should be the emperor's number one confidant, so why did he come here
King Changshou thought for a while with his only remaining brain, and his anger subsided a little. He adjusted his appearance and sat on the head.
"Hurry up and welcome the ambassador."
The middle-aged counselor responded flatteringly, and after a while, there was a sound of clothes rubbing from outside, and the pace was a little eager.
The door curtain was lifted, and a man walked in with an ordinary face, who could not be found when thrown into the crowd. He was wearing a cloth with many patches on it.
King Changshou pretended to be deep, and after holding the air for a while, he asked after a while, "Tell me, what is the purpose of your Meng family?"
As the saying goes, the Tao is different and the Tao is different. After the king of Changshou was pitted by Yang Si, he would no longer easily believe the literati's mouth.
Cangzhou Mengshi was the confidant of the Dongqing Emperor, and all the children of Dongqing knew about this.
Let King Changshou believe that Mengshi of Cangzhou suddenly turned against the water, will he believe it
Meng's emissary bowed respectfully and said in a hoarse voice, "Your Highness, as the saying goes, people who are wise don't speak secret words, and little ones don't deliberately betray their sons. My master wants to discuss the world's major affairs with the Lord, and I don't know if the Lord is interested, sit down. Let's talk more about it?"
King Changshou groaned in his heart, with a sarcastic look on his face.
How come there are always people in the world who trick him into being a fool
He said bitterly, "Who in this world doesn't know that your master is the loyal lackey of my second brother, who would believe you?"
Meng Shi's emissary's face changed dramatically, as if the bottom of the pot was ashes.
Now that the aristocratic family is powerful, even if the four great sects have retired one after another, the entire Dongqing political situation is still in the hands of the aristocratic family. Righteous indignation.
However, Meng's emissary came with a mission now, and naturally he would not easily tear his face.
He sank inwardly and said, "As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a wood to live in, and a worthy minister chooses a master. My master wants to discuss important matters with the prince, so naturally he is optimistic about you. The emperor is incompetent, and now there are northern borders outside. Eyeing the tiger, there are rogues and robbers in the people's livelihood, and instead of thinking about progress, they indulge in their voices, kill loyal ministers, worthy ministers, and good ministers indiscriminately, and connive with traitors to control the court.
King Changshou sat in the upper seat and listened, but at first he was a little careless, but as the secret envoy of the Meng family told him, he gradually became a little moved.
Could it be that the Meng clan of Cangzhou really intends to abandon the dark to the light and help him ascend to the throne
However, why did Mrs. Meng want to help herself
It must be because of his own profits that a family who is chasing fame and fortune takes the initiative to join them.
What King Changshou can give to the Meng family, can’t the Emperor Dongqing give it
No matter how the outside world curses the emperor for being incompetent, but he is an orthodox emperor after all, and King Changshou is a "chaotic thief" who intends to force the palace to rebel in the name of the Qing emperor... Or, the Meng clan in Cangzhou is not as good as before, and he wants to find a subordinate to the dragon. Success
King Changshou's eyes were dark and flickering, and there was a faint heartbeat.
"Ming people don't speak secretly, and your master is not someone who likes to suffer. What good can he do for helping the emperor?"
From Dragon Power
No matter how great the credit, can the Cangzhou Meng Clan go further
Meng Jing, the god of war of the white dragon among the people, is the ancestor of the Meng family. He paved the way for future generations and made the Meng family so prominent.
Where is the horse farm where war horses are raised
The most important weapon of the country, the emperor handed over the Dongqing Racecourse - Cangzhou to Meng's care.
What kind of trust is this
What glory
Even if the Meng family has the power of the dragon, they will not be able to advance, unless King Changshou surrenders the throne that is about to succeed.
Thinking of this, the little joy in King Changshou's heart vanished, and he responded with strong vigilance to Meng's emissary.
Meng's emissary said, "My master does not have any malicious intentions, it is just to help the prince get back what should belong to you. Of course, if the matter is completed, you are willing to give the master of Liu's family's head, the best thing is now…”
King Changshou was surprised, "The head of Liu's family?"
Cangzhou Meng Clan turned to him, and the ultimate goal was to destroy Liu Clan's whole family
No, is there any deep hatred between the Meng family and the Liu family
The emissary said proudly, "It's Hejian Liu's!"
King Changshou beat a drum in his heart and asked, "The Liu family in Hejian? You mean the Liu family where Mu Liushe of Chongzhou is located?"
The emissary asked back, "In addition to this Liu family, are there other branches in Hejian?"
It seemed that he was going for Liu She and others.
King Changshou was sure in his heart, and he asked in confusion, "Your master is willing to help Gu, but it's because of Liu She's whole family?"
What did the Liu family do to the Meng family in Cangzhou that everyone is angry with, and the two sides actually forged such a big hatred
"Naturally." The emissary continued to maintain his arrogance, "If the lord doesn't believe it, you will treat this discussion as never happened."
In order to defend Chenzhou, the Dongqing Emperor borrowed troops from the Meng clan in Cangzhou and issued nineteen edicts in a row.
Meng Zhan, the patriarch of the Meng clan, agreed to send troops and transfer military power, but he had conditions. After the King Changshou was repelled, the royal family needed to use the Liu family’s head as a reward. However, the emperor also had a very important concubine Huijun. The emperor tricked Meng's 20,000 soldiers and horses over, but his request to Meng was vague, so Meng Zhan sent a secret emissary to turn his head to talk to King Changshou. make a deal.
King Changshou felt that this was an opportunity for him to really get close to the throne.
However, he still wanted to know the hatred between the Meng family and the Liu family. Only by clarifying this point could he judge the sincerity of the Meng family.
It's a pity that the emissary refused to speak, like a gourd with a sawed mouth, and his mouth was very strict.
King Changshou could only agree on the surface, stabilize the emissary, and secretly dispatch his subordinates to investigate the grievances between the two races.
However, after investigation, there is nothing else except that the original match of the patriarch Meng became Liu She's step-wife, and the two were classmates and friends, and then cut off their robes and righteousness... This made King Changshou gossip and suspect Meng. The love-hate relationship between Zhan, Liu She and his wife, Gu Zhen.
