Chapter 123: Yongji's Strategy
Let's say that this Wanyan Yongji is the seventh son of Jin Shizong, this person was originally a mediocre and incompetent person, and he has no ability to govern the country, but this Wanyan Yongji has an advantage, that is, he is good at hiding his shortcomings.
Therefore, the superficial impression of this person to the magnates of the Jin Kingdom is that this person is very old-fashioned and has no interest in power.
In this case, the Jin Kingdom, from the emperor to the courtiers below, had a very good impression of this person.
Since the beginning of the Dading period, Wanyan Yongji was named King Xue, and later served as the secretary of the criminal department, and the palace was inspected, which was very valued by the emperor.
After the death of Jin Shizong, after Jin Zhangzong ascended the throne, he was also very relieved and cared for this Wanyan Yongji, and in the eighth year of Taihe, he was appointed as the captain of the Wangfu Mansion, specializing in the management of the kings of the clan, and at the same time concurrently served as the envoy of the Wuding Army, and held the military power.
In addition, Jin Zhangzong is seriously ill and has no heirs, so there have been rumors in Jin Guo that Jin Zhangzong wants to pass the throne to Wanyan Yongji.
In this case, there are many people who come to support Wanyan Yongji, such as Hu Shahu, Wanyan Kuang, Wanyan Dashan, etc.
Especially this Wanyan Mountain, because he controls the Imperial Forest Army, he is very valued by Wanyan Yongji on weekdays, and Wanyan Yongji often asks Wanyan Dashan to win over all kinds of characters for himself, in preparation for his own competition.
Since Wanyan Dashan saw Xin Ran, he felt that if this person could be used by them, it would definitely play a big role, so after seeing Xin Ran and his separation today, this Wanyan Dashan immediately rode to Wanyan Yongji's mansion.
Because he often comes to Wanyan Yongji's mansion, the people in Wanyan Yongji's mansion all know Wanyan Dashan, so no one stopped him, so he directly let Wanyan Dashan in.
Wanyan Dashan is very familiar with Wanyan Yongji's mansion, and knows that at this point in time, Wanyan Yongji must be fishing in the back garden of the palace, so he came directly to the back garden of the palace.
When I came to the back garden, I saw that Yan Yongji was really sitting by the pond in the back garden fishing, so he immediately walked to the side of Yan Yongji.
When Wanyan Yongji saw Wanyan Dashan coming, he asked, "Commander Wanyan, what happened to you coming to the king's mansion in a hurry?" ”
"Happy event, great happy event, today I met a person named Xin Ran at the Liantian Conference held in Shaolin Temple some time ago in the teahouse, this person is both wise and brave, if it can be used by the prince, it will definitely come in handy in the future." Wanyan Yongji to Wanyan Mountain Road.
Wanyan Yongji asked: "What is the origin of this Xin Ran, has this king heard of it?" ”
"This Xin Ran is the heir of Xin Qiji." Wanyan Dashan replied.
Wanyan Yongji said: "Xin Qiji, this Wang Shi knows that this person's ancestors were officials in my Dajin Kingdom, but this Xin Qiji went to the Song Dynasty when he was a teenager, and later became an official of the Song Dynasty, and this person is still a staunch anti-Jin faction, and has always been the enemy of my Jin Kingdom, but this person's words, this king is very appreciative, how can the descendants of such a person be used by us?" “
Wanyan Dashan said to Wanyan Yongji: "In front of the prince, I don't dare to talk nonsense, to be honest, I really don't have any certainty, because I have also been in contact with this person a few times." ”
"That's the case, so what are you going to do with this person?" Wan Yan Yongji asked.
Wanyan Dashan said to Wanyan Yongji: "That's the case, after meeting Xin Ran in the restaurant, I have already made an appointment with him, and I will go to the lowly mansion tonight to wash the dust for him." ”
Wanyan Yongji said to Wanyan Dashan: "Wanyan has done a good job in leading you, but today's banquet must be very grand, at least to cause a sensation in the capital, and then this king, Hu Shahu, Wanyan Kuang and others will attend this banquet." ”
"Lord Wang, you are too exalted of this kid Xin Ran, although this person has a bit of energy, but you are a prince, you are a person above one person, a person below ten thousand people, it seems that it is not necessary to meet this person in person." Wanyan Yongji to Wanyan Mountain Road.
Wanyan Yongji smiled at Wanyan Dashan, and then said: "Wanyan Commander, you still owe some fire, you still haven't seen the true intention of this king." ”
Wanyan Dashan seemed to be a little confused, so Wanyan Yongji said: "This humble and dull position is dull, but I want to ask the prince for advice." ”
Wanyan Yongji smiled mysteriously, and then said: "This king's move is to announce to the heroes of the world that my Dajin Kingdom loves and cherishes talents, and only capable people who come to my Dajin Kingdom will be valued by my Dajin Kingdom; Second, this Xin Ran's father Xin Qiji is a staunch anti-Jin faction, this king will make this banquet so big, there will inevitably be someone to transmit this news to the Southern Song Dynasty and the opposition, so that those people may think that this Xin Ran has taken refuge in our Dajin country, and these Song Dynasty anti-Jin faction once they think so, they will definitely be very hostile to Xin Ran, and even send people to clean up this Xin Ran, in this way, if Xin Ran has a country to return, I am afraid there is only one way to go, that is, to take refuge in our Dajin country. ”
"The prince kills two birds with one stone, he is really clever, and he admires his humble duties." Wanyan Dashan said to Wanyan Yongji.
Hearing this Wanyan Dashan flattering himself like this, Wanyan Yongji couldn't help but feel a little fluttering, and said: "Wanyan has a reputation, after all, the power of this king alone is limited, and I have to rely on you to help this king a lot, and this king can achieve great things." ”
"The prince is too modest." Wanyan Dashan said to Wanyan Yongji.
After saying this, Wanyan Dashan said again: "Lord Wang, there is a small suggestion for the humble position. ”
"What does Commander Wanyan suggest, though?" Wanyan Yongji to Wanyan Mountain Road.
Wanyan Dashan said: "According to our humble opinion, we can let us arrange for the secret agents in the Song Dynasty to spread the news of our hospitality to Xin Ran in the Song Dynasty, so that even the Song Dynasty officials who secretly defected to our Jin State report Xin Ran, in this way, it may be more effective." ”
Wanyan Yongji listened to Wanyan Dashan's words, and then said, and said with a smile: "Wanyan Commander, your trick is poisonous enough, you beware, in the future, after this Xin Ran took refuge in our Dajin Kingdom, he will know that you did this and hold a grudge against you!" ”
"For the sake of my Dajin Kingdom, for the sake of the prince, I am not afraid of broken bones, and naturally I am not afraid of Xin Ran, this kid will hold a grudge against me." Wanyan Dashan said to Wanyan Yongji.
After listening to Wanyan Dashan's words, Wanyan Yongji said happily: "Commander Wanyan is really loyal to my Dajin Kingdom and this king, you can rest assured, this king will not treat you badly." ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang." Wanyan Mountain Road.
Then, Wanyan Dashan said to Wanyan Yongji: "In order to welcome the prince and all the adults, as well as this Xinran, I have to go back to prepare for the humble position, if the prince has any instructions now, then the humble duty will be resigned and go back." ”
"This king has nothing to ask for here, you hurry back to the house to make arrangements, this king and your lords will arrive on time." Wanyan Yongji to Wanyan Mountain Road.
After hearing Yan Yongji say this, Yan Dashan immediately said goodbye and went back to his mansion to prepare for the dinner party in the evening.
