Wu Li got angry, he said angrily, "Don't you just ignore it and let the conspiracy behind the scenes succeed? If the king's hegemony stops here, you are sinners through the ages, who can bear the responsibility? Since you are loyal to the king, shouldn't you? Considering the king?"
As he spoke, his heart trembled, and his whole face turned blue with anger.
Allowing these traitorous officials to hold back, can the king fulfill his grand ambition to enter the Central Plains
The political enemy's expression turned solemn, and his eyes were filled with cold air. He laughed grimly, and said loudly, "Chengchengcheng - only you are the most loyal to the king, and we are all traitors. But ah In the eyes of this old man, you are also a wicked minister. Wu Liba, you don't care about the current situation, you are stubborn, and you force the king to act according to your wishes... Is it you who has the final say or the king in this northern border? Even if you What if he is a wise man, doesn't the king have the ability to judge by himself?"
If Wu Liba did not propose to cooperate with the Cangzhou Meng clan and buy mares at a high price, the imperial court's finances would not be so tight.
now what
The Northern Xinjiang Imperial Court was already stretched thin, and couldn't get the extra money to do other things at all.
In other words, Beijiang has been locked up by horses acquired at high prices, and it will take at least a year or two to see benefits.
The older Wu Liba is, the more ignorant he is, can't he see the current predicament of the Northern Border Imperial Court
"You don't have to provoke me, Wu Liba is loyal to the king and never has a second heart." Wu Liba said, "It's you, don't you really see the danger of herdsmen raising a lot of rabbits and sheep? If you see it Keep silent, and tell me, who in the end has two hearts?"
What else the political opponent wanted to say, the King of Northern Xinjiang gave a violent shout, stopping the two of them from arguing.
"Everyone shut up and retreat!"
The King of Northern Xinjiang stared at Wu Liba with a livid face.
How much he liked this wise man before, how much he hates him now.
In order to stabilize his power, the King of Northern Xinjiang suppressed several adult sons. He deliberately ignored Wuliba and tried to marginalize Wuliba.
how so
Who asked the herdsmen to deify the wise, and who thought Wulipa was on whose side was the real king of the grasslands
If it were him when he was young, he wouldn't care about these rumors, because he was confident to let Wu Liba use it for himself.
Now that he is getting old, his body is not as good as before, but his children are in their prime. Hearing similar rumors again, the King of Northern Xinjiang only felt harsh. Even if he gradually weakened Wulipa, several sons were still rushing to curry favor with each other. Which one in the upper ranks could hold back
After retreating from the dynasty, the King of Northern Xinjiang privately summoned his confidant, Wu Liba's political enemy, who had just fought against Wu Liba.
"Meet the king."
Wulipa's political opponent is also an important official in northern Xinjiang, named Harencha.
"Halenza, do you think Wulipa's words... are they alarmist, or are they true?"
The King of Northern Xinjiang was still hesitant. He understood Wu Liba's character. If it wasn't really important, the other party wouldn't insist on it so much.
Harencha's eyes flashed with cold light, and he looked confident.
"I'd rather believe what it has than do not trust it. Naturally, one or two rabbits and sheep can't make a big deal, but what about tens of thousands or even millions? It's like the locusts in the Central Plains, one or two can't jump up, but they can cover up. The locusts that cover the sun can gnaw people into bones in an instant and destroy thousands of miles of fertile fields. The king is determined to be in the Central Plains, and naturally he knows what the situation will be after the locust plague in the Central Plains... "
Halencha has not read a few books. He is a standard northern Xinjiang man, advocating force and contempt for writing, especially the Confucian culture in the Central Plains. In his opinion, Northern Xinjiang is a lion, and those sour Confucian words are the poison that corrupts the lion's will, so he hates Wuliba particularly.
Who asked Wuli to study the culture of the Central Plains in a small school, and after entering the political center of Northern Xinjiang, he also proposed several times to promote the culture of the Central Plains.
Therefore, Ulipa was hated by Harencha like this.
However, the King of Northern Xinjiang is an ambitious person, and he knows that it is in his best interest to reuse.
Whenever Wulipa and Haruncha were on the bar, the king of Northern Xinjiang chose to favor the former.
Harenza has been oppressed by Wulipa and has been unable to lift his head for decades.
Now that the feng shui is turning, Harencha thinks about his pain and recruits his staff to make suggestions for himself, and he has the stance of replacing Wu Liba.
"You're right." The King of Northern Xinjiang shivered at the thought of the locust plague, and immediately showed a wry smile, "But..."
But what
But they have no money now!
If the merchants with ulterior motives are driven away, what will happen to the rabbits and sheep in the hands of the northern herdsmen
The herdsmen don't want to explode in situ
Harenza sighed, "If that's the case, why doesn't the king do the opposite?"
The King of Northern Xinjiang lit up and asked, "Why do you do the opposite?"
"No matter who was behind those caravans, the king pretended not to know," Harenza said.
"Pretend you don't know?"
The King of Northern Xinjiang was stunned for a moment, unable to understand.
Harenza was secretly refreshed, and it felt good to hang on the appetites of others, no wonder that sour Confucian Wuliba liked to put on a show.
"Yes, pretend not to know." Halenza continued to pretend under the urging eyes of the King of Northern Xinjiang, he said, "Your Majesty, how can rabbits and hares be treated in the same way? Rabbits are lazy and stupid, their meat is too fat, and their coats are colored. Not bright. Hare is alert and intelligent, running on the grassland all the year round, avoiding the enemy, the meat is fresh and tender. The price of the latter is naturally higher than that of the former! Usually those merchants are allowed to pass the border, but this year is not allowed. The king sent someone to suggest that the merchants should let They raise the purchase price of hares, so that the herdsmen will catch the hares spontaneously. The herdsmen can earn a lot of money, and the king does not have to spend extra manpower to remove the hares from the grasslands."
The King of Beijiang's eyes lit up, he really didn't think of this method.
"Is this possible?"
Harenza said, "Naturally it is feasible. Not only does the king need to pay for the removal of the extra hares, but the herdsmen can be grateful to you."
The King of Northern Xinjiang was overjoyed, "This plan is very good!"
Harenza couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth and said a few words of modesty.
"You don't need to be humble." The King of Northern Xinjiang sighed, raised his hand and patted the other's shoulder, he said, "Compared to Wu Liba, who caused trouble for this king all day, you are the truly loyal person. Not only offered a panacea, but also made suggestions for the king."
Harenza said, "This is all the minister should do."
The King of Northern Xinjiang felt tired, and he asked the slave girl to bring her medicine.
After half an hour—
The King of Northern Xinjiang felt refreshed, his complexion was ruddy, and his eyes were bright.
"As expected of the secret recipe of the Great Xia Imperial Court, a good thing for the emperor to enjoy, it really works wonders."
He breathed a sigh of relief, his expression dreamy.
Because of his age, his body is not as good as before, and he can't even satisfy the women in his backyard.
This is an unbearable humiliation for a proud northern Xinjiang man.
Thanks to Halenza's loyalty, he offered him a magic formula that only the emperor was qualified to use.
After taking it every time, he felt refreshed and full of energy, and even more vigorous in sexual affairs.
It is said that long-term use can also prolong life.
This is a fatal temptation for the King of Northern Xinjiang.
