"Dong Weng, what the Ming army needs is not money, but fame and popular support. So they're going to fight anyway. ”
Wu Yu's words woke up Liao Lin.
Yongli wants to compete for the world, so the people's heart is very important to him.
So how do you win the hearts and minds of the people? Naturally, it is a constant battle and a constant victory, so that the people can see hope.
This alone declared Liao Lin's attempt frustrated.
He wanted to ride the wall, but now it seems that the Ming army will not give him this chance.
So Dong Weng's top priority is to quickly decide who to do things for. Is it the Ming army or the Qing army, is it Yongli or Shunzhi. ”
In fact, it's good to break the words and make it clear. Anyway, Wu Yu is not an outsider, and Liao Lin doesn't need to hide it.
"When the government heard that the general army of Xiangyang surrendered."
He paused deliberately, wanting Wu Yu to understand what he meant.
"Actually, it's not that the government can't surrender, so who can it do or not? Don't care if it's Yongli or Shunzhi, you have to be an official, right? ”
Then he sighed and said, "It's just that this matter is said by one person." I have to discuss it with Mr. Feng. ”
Wu Yu heard the sound of the strings and knew the elegant meaning, it turned out that Dong Weng wanted Feng Zongbing to take the blame.
In this way, it was spread that Feng Zongbing insisted on sacrificing the city, and Dong Weng was coerced, and the crime was much smaller on the side of the Qing court.
At least it won't affect the family.
Because the court also understands that Xiucai met soldiers, it is unreasonable.
Someone else puts a knife on your neck, and you have no chance to resist even if you want to.
Looking for a martial artist to take the blame, this is also a routine used by literati, and Dong Weng still has a hand.
"This is simple, Dong Weng might as well bring Feng Zongbing over, and there is no intention to mention this matter at the wine table. It is said that the general soldiers of Xiangyang received a series of rewards after the Ming Dynasty, and they were added to the rank of knight. ”
"Wonderful!"
Liao Lin's eyes narrowed, and he exclaimed: "This mansion will invite General Feng here!" ”
...
...
Inexplicably, he was invited by Liao Lin, the prefect of Jiangling, which made the chief soldier Feng Tang very suspicious.
The relationship between the two can only be regarded as passable, not very close.
Now Liao Lin has nothing to do, no matter how you look at it, it's not a good thing.
But after thinking about it, Feng Tang couldn't find a reason not to go, so he had to change into a plain robe to go to this Hongmen banquet.
Gangneung City is not too big, and the General Military Mansion is only one street away from the prefect's yamen.
Feng Tang did not ride a horse, but only brought a few personal soldiers to go.
He wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this Liao Governor's Mansion.
But he said that Feng Tang was not so particular, and strode to the backyard without waiting for someone to report.
Seeing that Liao Lin was enjoying the shade in the pavilion next to the rockery, Feng Tang stepped forward in a few steps and said with a smile: "Oh, Liao Fuzun is really good Yaxing!" ”
Liao Lin turned around when he heard this, and greeted him with a smile: "Look who is here." Mr. Feng came at the right time, let's have a meal. ”
Feng Tang sat down with his robe, coughed and said, "Liao Fuzun, let's not hide it." Tell me why you came to me. ”
Liao Lin stroked his chin and said leisurely: "It's nothing important, I just want to have a meal with Mr. Feng, chat about it, and enjoy the fish by the way." ”
Feng Tang sneered in his heart, and said in his heart that this is a reason for a ball.
Lao Tzu is not a three-year-old child, will he believe your nonsense? You're a bad old man, you're bad.
Maybe you don't want to say it now, I won't ask, the fox's tail will be exposed sooner or later, and I want to see the bad water in your stomach.
Soon the meals came one after another, and the main course was a dish of steamed sea bass.
Liao Lin took a piece of fish meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it lightly, and then exclaimed: "This fish is so delicious, Mr. Feng should try it." ”
Feng Tang said in his heart, it's just a fish, as for such a fuss. However, he still gave Liao Lin face and sandwiched a large piece.
"Well, it does taste good."
"Mr. Feng, what is the difference between the fish in this pond and the fish on the plate?"
Liao Lin's words are slow and logical, but the more so, the easier it is to make people feel that they mean something.
"The fish on the plate are dead, but the fish in the pond are alive."
Feng Tang quickly gave an answer.
"Haha, Mr. Feng is really a wonderful person."
Liao Lin slapped his hands and praised: "What Mr. Feng said is right, the fish in this pond are alive, and the fish on the plate are dead." Everything seems so insignificant compared to life and death, doesn't it? ”
"Although the fish in this pond only have such a large place to swim and the space is very limited, there is no need to worry about their lives when they have food and drink. The fish on this plate were fishermen from the river. It has a wide range of activities, but it can be life-threatening at any time. Is it better to fish in the pond or in the river? I'm afraid that many people will choose to make anchovy. But in my opinion, it is more comfortable to be a pond fish. ”
After a pause, Liao Lin continued: "And even if this garden changes owners, the life of the pond fish will not be affected." Literati and scholars love to raise fish, and it is not a fool not to raise ready-made fish. Feng Zongbing said yes or no? ”
Feng Tang is not stupid, after listening to Liao Lin's meaningful words for such a long time, he has basically guessed the other party's intentions.
"Liao Fuzun, you want to change the court, right?"
"Oh, Mr. Feng, this is what you said, not what I said. By the way, what do you mean by changing the court? ”
Seeing that the other party began to play a scoundrel, Feng Tang sneered and said, "Liao Fuzun, what's the point of you pretending to be stupid here?" Isn't that obvious? Besides, it's not an unsightly thing to descend to the light, are you so secretive? ”
In fact, Feng Tang is also seriously considering this issue.
The Ming army has been like a broken bamboo since it marched along the east of the river, and even the important towns such as Yiling, Yunyang, and Xiangyang were unstoppable.
In this case, Gangneung became the next target of the Ming army.
Although Feng Tang's name is very similar to that famous general in history, his strength is much worse.
He also didn't think that he could hold Gangneung, and it was natural to find a good way out at this time.
I never thought that Liao Lin would go with him.
"Oh, since General Feng said so, this mansion will also tell you clearly. In this way, the only way to survive is to live. There's no reason for us to bury Gangneung City. But could you suggest it? In this way, you can also save your reputation. ”
Feng Tang said in his heart that he was a shameless literati, and he could say this kind of thing. But why should you take advantage of all the good things?
As soon as he wanted to ask, Liao Lin continued: "Mr. Feng, please rest assured, as long as you are willing to agree, Liao will prepare a generous gift, and you will definitely not be disappointed!" ”
Feng Tang said in his heart, it turned out that he still had a back hand.
For the sake of money, he can really think about it.
"Liao Fuzun already has a comprehensive consideration?"
"Haha, a little planned."
Liao Lin said lightly.
