Chapter Seventy-One: A Delaying Tactic
The so-called early is not as good as the coincidence. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhanbai's rebellion against Gongzi Jun is undoubtedly a coincidence.
Today is the last day for the feudal palace to solicit guests.
Six thousand guests gathered together for a banquet, which was the time when Gongzi Jun bought people's hearts.
For this banquet, the feudal palace even deliberately rearranged the original school field, although it was an open-air banquet, but the decoration was extraordinarily luxurious, and even the original bluestone floor was all covered with red carpets, and the servant girls who came and went were like butterflies wearing flowers, which made people overwhelmed.
For two people, a table was prepared for these new guests, and more than 3,000 food tables were prepared, which were covered with fruits, vegetables, meat, and wine.
At this time, Gongzi Jun had just given a glass of wine to all the guests with a cadre of civil and military officials from the Domain's Mansion, when he saw the housekeeper of the palace come up and whispered something in his ear.
"Is the gentleman out of the customs yet?" When Gongzi Jun heard the news, he felt a little apprehensive.
Because I hadn't heard the news of Zhanbai's exit before, I didn't send him an invitation to today's banquet, but unexpectedly......
I just hope that Mr. doesn't mind.
Gongzi Jun secretly thought to himself, and he couldn't care about the banquet, so he rushed out.
"Sir."
"Childe."
At the gatehouse of the vassal king's mansion, Zhanbai and Gongzi Jun saluted each other.
"The student is really damned, he didn't know that Mr. had already been released, and he forgot to send you a banquet post, and asked Mr. for forgiveness." Childe Jun hurriedly apologized at the beginning.
"Childe said and laughed, I also just got out of the customs, and I happened to hear that Childe was a guest at the banquet, so I cheekily came to ask for a glass of water and wine." The sedan chair was carried by everyone, and Zhanbai naturally didn't care about such a trivial matter, so he hurriedly went over, in fact, he was also on the way to hear the news.
"I heard that Gongzi has recently recruited a lot of heroes and heroes, and here, I want to say hello." Zhan Bai still said politely.
"The students are really ashamed, they are all whims that have been heard by Mr. for a few days, and they are really insignificant." Gongzijun's words are not modest.
Soliciting guests is not a ploy offered by Zhanbai, but it is inspired by him.
Now that it has been decided to fight for the position of the prince with all its might, and there is no room for recovery after the purge of Yingcheng, what it is natural to do now is to expand its own power as much as possible.
Before, Zhanbai's strategy was to start with the army and territory, but Gongzi Jun drew inferences from each other, and only then did he have the intention of recruiting guests.
Fortunately, this move is undoubtedly a success so far.
The name of the feudal king's mansion is too loud for the green forest rivers and lakes. Almost as soon as the recruitment order was issued, the threshold of the palace was trampled by countless green forest rangers, and after layers of screening, it was very successful to recruit 6,000 guests.
Don't underestimate these 6,000 disciples, although if they were to fight against the same number of troops, they might only be called a rabble, but in the future battle for the prince, they can provide an unimaginable effect.
"Sir, why don't you go to the banquet with the students and help the students see how these guests are doing?" Childe Jun made a gesture of invitation as he spoke.
Unexpectedly, Zhanbai politely refused.
"Forget it. After all, I'm just a strategist, so I can avoid this kind of thing. ”
Gongzi Jun thought about it carefully, but he thought it was true, so he stopped persuading.
"Why don't you go to the study with the students?" Childe Jun unconsciously changed his mind.
"Is that good? It won't ruin today's banquet, right? Zhan Bai hypocritically hesitated.
"Probably not. It's just some guests, and they shouldn't be accompanied by King Lone himself, besides, I've already drunk with them before. Childe Jun said as a matter of course.
Of course, this is not from the heart, after all, according to his original plan, today is undoubtedly the best time to buy people's hearts.
It's just that everything is important.
Compared to Zhanbai, the weight of the six thousand guests is obviously not enough.
In the end, Zhan Bai nodded in agreement.
"You go and tell Wen Buqi and the others, just say that King Gu has something important, and let them entertain those guests for me." Gongzi Jun first instructed the housekeeper, and then led the way first, leading Zhanbai and Qin Yin straight to the study of the inner house.
……
"Childe, now, Yingcheng is under control, and at the same time, five hundred border guards have been recruited, which has greatly expanded the six rates of the prince, although compared with the foundation of the entire Chu State, it is just a departure from the fireflies, but it is nothing less than a good start." When seated in the study, Zhan Bai will go straight to the point.
"I was about to ask sir, what are we going to do next? The so-called there is no impermeable wall in the world, and the changes in Yingcheng will be transmitted to Danyang sooner or later, and it will inevitably attract the attention ......of my two brothers.
"Yes, time is too precious for us, since this is the case, then let's make a fool of ourselves with the court and delay time as much as possible." Zhan Bai Zhengse said, "First of all, the communication with the Qin State cannot be severed, this is our backhand, and it is also a killer weapon, if something goes wrong, it can even become a way out." Secondly, it is...... completely muddy the water in the altar of the court, so that even if we have an incident, those people will not be able to share their energy. ”
"Oh?!" Hearing that Zhan Bai had a plan in his heart, Gongzi Jun's eyes couldn't help but light up, "I still hope that Mr. will give you advice, how to confuse the court?" ”
"Childe, dare to ask. Even if we have an incident, do you think in the eyes of outsiders, who among the three sons is most likely to inherit the great cause of the Chu State? Zhan Bai suddenly had a question.
"This ...... It should be the second brother Gongzitian. Gongzi Jun thought for a moment and replied.
Gongzi Tian was originally born in Danyang, and the power of the party camp in the court is quite strong, plus not long ago, he had the merit of saving the driver, and his reputation can be said to be unparalleled for a while, not to mention outsiders, even if Gongzi Jun himself, he does not have the slightest confidence to compete with him now, otherwise, there will be no worries today.
"And what next?" Zhan Bai continued to ask.
"This ...... I have to say that the pattern of Yingcheng is still too small, even if we have actually controlled this city, but our strength may not be able to enter the eyes of many ministers in the court. Therefore, in comparison, the eldest brother should be stronger than us. Although Gongzi Jun didn't want to admit it, his ugly face still showed his unwillingness.
God is unfair, they are also the sons of their fathers, why is there such a big difference in treatment.
"Then, ask Childe again. Do you think that whether it is Gongzixiao or Gongzitian, who will be regarded as the biggest opponent in their hearts at this time? Zhan Bai asked again.
"Huh?" Gongzi Jun was stunned for a moment, vaguely understanding the meaning of Zhanbai.
"Sir is saying...... Discord? ”
"Nope. There is no need to separate, the two sons are now as powerful as fire and water. Zhan Bai shook his head, "To put it mildly, even if you know that Gongzi occupies the land of Yingcheng, your two brothers may not be able to see it." The assassination of the king of Chu is at stake, and it is undoubtedly the most intense moment in the battle for the prince. The difficulty of Yingcheng, in the eyes of the court, is just a mustard problem, at least for now, no one will care. On the contrary, the two brothers are between each other, which will regard each other as a thorn in the side, and will not get rid of unhappiness. The two tigers compete, the winner is the king, and at that time, if you reflexively solve the trouble of Yingcheng, is it not enough to be caught? ”
"The student understands what Mr. means, what we need to do next is to balance the forces of my two brothers, so that they will be inseparable in a short period of time, and only when the throne is undecided, they will not have extra energy to deal with us." After Zhan Bai's reminder, Gongzi Jun immediately understood. (To be continued.) )
