Chapter 1566: Standing Golden Dao Gongsun Shu

The next day, the envoy of the Qin army, Li Hongzhang, arrived in Liaodu, and Gongsun Xuanyuan's attitude towards him was the same as that of the envoy of the Northern Han Dynasty, that is, the two words 'neutrality', and what Li Hongzhang wanted was that the Liao State would not help each other, so it was easy to complete the mission of the envoy.

"General Gongsun, between the Han Dynasty in the north and the south, no matter how they fought before, it was only their own brothers who were fighting for family property, but now there are people conspiring with foreigners to assassinate their own brothers in such a dirty way."

Li Hongzhang looked at Gongsun Xuanyuan with burning eyes, he believed that Gongsun Xuanyuan would definitely understand the meaning of his words, and then continued: "My Qin army is inseparable from all foreign races, and it is definitely not to cooperate with any foreign race. ”

As soon as he heard this, Gongsun Xuanyuan's face couldn't help but become ugly, Li Hongzhang so happily showed that the Qin army must have nothing to do with the Manchus, is this unclear to say that Liu Che secretly colluded with the Manchus?

Although Gongsun Xuanyuan is also doubting this, after all, Liu Che sent the main force of his family, and wanted to let himself also lead the army south to help the war, as if he was not worried that the Manchus would go south, and this is obviously not in line with common sense, the only explanation is that he had contact with the Manchus in advance.

Of course, this is just speculation, and there is no conclusive evidence.

Now Li Hongzhang has brought the filth under the negotiation table directly to the negotiation table, in order to force Gongsun Xuanyuan, who hates foreign races, to completely draw a line with the Northern Han who may collude with foreign races.

Although Gongsun Xuanyuan expressed his neutral position, which was obviously more beneficial to the Qin army, Li Hongzhang still wanted to try to win over the Liao State, after all, only after Gongsun Xuanyuan officially stood in line could he really trust him.

Gongsun Xuanyuan naturally thought of this, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he said a little bluntly: "Whether it is meritorious or not is judged by future generations." ”

As soon as Li Hongzhang heard this, he also understood that he was a little anxious, and he wanted Gongsun Xuanyuan to express his stance so quickly, but he must know that if he wants to hurry, he will not be able to reach it.

"Retire below."

Looking at the back of Li Hongzhang leaving, Ye Qingmei smiled lightly: "Brother did the right thing, whether it is Qin Hao or Liu Che, at this time, we Liao State should not fall to either side." ”

"But if such a neutral team continues, I'm afraid it will be unpleasing to both ends." Gongsun Xuanyuan said worriedly.

"How can one of them be neutral?"

Ye Qingmei's eyes flashed, and he said confidently: "Nearly a million troops have gathered in Jizhou, just a person eating horses can eat a hill every day, even the Qin army, which is rich in the world, cannot afford such a burden."

Therefore, within a month or two at the latest, Bai Qi and Han Xin will definitely break out into a more fierce battle, and whoever occupies the top will help us, otherwise it won't be good at both ends. ”

Gongsun Xuanyuan's eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation: "Let's talk about it then." ”

Gongsun Xuanyuan is naturally ambitious, but the strength of the Liao State is too weak, coupled with the awkward geographical location, it is in the gap between the major powers, and there is no possibility of development at all, so it is too difficult to realize the ambition.

Not long after Li Hongzhang walked on his front foot, Gongsun Xuanyuan's brother, Gongsun Shu, who was supported by a standing golden knife, also ran over to find Gongsun Xuanyuan.

"Brother, I heard that the envoy of the Qin army is also here? What kind of chips did Qin Hao offer to win us over? Gongsun Shu asked with a smile.

Gongsun Xuanyuan's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Although Qin Hao's conditions are rich, they are not as good as Liu Che, and he is not crowned king. ”

"So what are you waiting for? Send troops to help Liu resist Qin. ”

"Both families rejected for their brothers."

"What?"

Gongsun Shu's eyes widened, and he said with a puzzled expression: "That's the king, brother, what a glorious ancestor this is, why do you refuse." ”

"Liu's king with a different surname, how many good deaths do you have? Not a single one. ”

Gongsun Xuanyuan smiled coldly: "Don't look at Liu Che now giving Yuan Shao and Han Xin the king, but sooner or later he will definitely not be able to tolerate these two people, if it really comes to the day when they repel Qin Hao, it must be the time for them to turn their faces."

Our Liao army guards the northern frontier and resists foreign races, and cannot be moved lightly, and neutrality is the best way. ”

"But ......"

"Enough, the general has made up his mind, and he will not be involved in the Jizhou War."

"This, okay, little brother retires."

Although Gongsun Shu was unwilling, he had no choice but to leave.

However, before leaving, Gongsun Shu also glanced at Ye Qingmei beside Gongsun Xuanyuan affectionately, but this move made Ye Qingmei roll his eyes.

Looking at the one that Gongsun Shu left, Gongsun Xuanyuan couldn't help sighing, and whispered to himself: "None of them are fuel-efficient lamps." ”

Gongsun Xuanyuan turned his head to look at it, and found that Ye Qingmei was still speechless, and couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Mei'er, you hate Brother Shu so much?" ”

"Big brother, Gongsun Shu has a bad heart and is ambitious, you must be careful."

It is impossible for Ye Qingmei to tell Gongsun Xuanyuan that Gongsun Shu, the golden knife in the last years of Wang Mang, was the emperor of Yizhou who reigned for 12 years, and your brother is very likely to be that Gongsun Shu, so he can only knock on the side in this way.

"It's okay, as long as my brother is still there, no one in this Liao country will be able to make waves." Gongsun Xuanyuan said proudly.

Gongsun Xuanyuan's wisdom and vision, how could he not see that Gongsun Shu was ambitious, and there were many small actions in private.

It's just that for the sake of the same clan, and he is the only person who has practiced the martial arts of the Gongsun family to the end of the world, he does have a good strength, and Gongsun Shu is a place where there are few Gongsun families who support him, so Gongsun Xuanyuan turned a blind eye to him.

Gongsun Xuanyuan is the same as Gongsun Zhan, the identity of the concubine makes his position in the Gongsun family more embarrassing, if it is not for Gongsun Chan to designate him to succeed him, Gongsun Xuanyuan may not be able to inherit Gongsun Zhan's position.

The Gongsun family has a large group of sons-in-law who are high-eyed and low-handed, and they don't like Gongsun Xuanyuan, not only do they not give support but want to seize power, and Gongsun Shu is one of the few people who stand on Gongsun Xuanyuan's side.

It was precisely because he thought that this was the case, and although Gongsun Shu was ambitious, he had not been disloyal, so Gongsun Xuanyuan would be extremely tolerant of him.

Seeing Gongsun Xuanyuan's expression, Ye Qingmei knew that he definitely didn't listen, she didn't have confidence in her brother's imperial method, the key was that the talent lineup under his command really made her unable to complain.

The ambitious Gongsun Shu, the faint monarch Zhao Ji, Gao Yu Cai Jing and other six thieves, these crooked melons and cracked dates all gathered around Gongsun Xuanyuan.

Although these people are very honest at present, and they are all good ministers, and even Ye Qingmei can't find fault, but when he thinks of the deeds in the original history of these people, Ye Qingmei can't rest assured.

By the way, there are also a large number of traitors such as Wu Sangui, who once gathered around Gongsun Chan, and directly led to the death of Gongsun Chan.

"Why are the people of the Gongsun family so attractive to traitors?" Ye Qingmei looked puzzled.
