Chapter 39 Step by step

Wei Ziheng and Zhong Ren left the camp tent and rode back to the camp on fast horses.

Zhong Ren said with some confusion on the way: "I don't know how the prince knows that there is a camp at the foot of Langya Mountain." I have done things for King Yue, and I have never heard of them for so many years. ”

Wei Ziheng said: "It's very simple, everyone is greedy, as long as it is something that can take advantage, why doesn't Black Tiger do it?" If he just said that there was a vacant lot in that area, maybe he would think about it. I directly described it as a piece, a ready-made place for the Black Tiger Gang, so will he agree to the Black Tiger when you say it? ”

Zhong Ren suddenly became a little enlightened: "I see, Black Tiger is indeed greedy enough. When discussing money in the past, this black tiger also asked King Yue for an extra copy. ”

Wei Ziheng rode on the back of the horse very skillfully and said, "Zhong Daxia, in my opinion, there is no need to go back to King Yue now. When you brought me here earlier, I noticed that there is a general in your Yue Kingdom named Yu Renzhi, who seems to be a proud general under Hua Qiming, and I don't know if I can win him over. ”

"I'm afraid not. This time, he asked him to cooperate, which was nothing more than in the name of King Yue. He should still be working for Hua Qi's life. "Zhong Ren, very decisively denied.

Wei Ziheng shook his head and said: "I don't think necessarily, first of all, as a young courtier, he will not be as scheming and scheming as Hua Qiming, this kind of person is often more pure. If we convince him in the name of King Yue, it may be possible. ”

"This ......" Zhong Ren had a trace of hesitation and suspicion: "I don't know how sure Wei Gongzi is, if the matter of recruiting Yu Renzhi fails, I'm afraid the plan will be leaked." ”

"I understand, everything must be done to his liking, I don't know how much Yu Renzhi knows about him?" Wei Ziheng has already begun to prepare, the next action.

Zhong Ren thought for a while and said: "Yu Renzhi, I don't know much about him, but he is still quite stable in temperament, has strong ability to do things, and has his own opinions. I don't know much about the rest. ”

"In this way, Yu Renzhi's normal personality is similar to ordinary people."

"Yes."

"That's easy!" Wei Ziheng smiled slightly and said: "It is imperative that we plan the overall situation in the shortest possible time. Hua Qi ordered to send troops to the border, presumably it will take some time, and the seizure of power by the prime minister in the DPRK must be before Hua Qi's order returns to Vietnam. Otherwise, under the cooperation of the two huge powers of the military and the government, it will be difficult for the king of Yue to turn over again in the short term. ”

"I see. Let's go, Master Wei. At this time, Zhong Ren could only fully trust the young man in front of him who was still an enemy not long ago.

Next, the two of them rushed directly to Yu Renzhi, the military camp where Yu Renzhi was, Yu Renzhi's military camp was some distance away from the camp where King Yue was, looking at the actions of the Yue troops everywhere, it seemed that this military camp would be uprooted soon. It seems that the troops are ready to send troops.

As before, Zhong Ren showed the token of King Yue, and came directly to Yu Renzhi without any hindrance.

Yu Renzhi was a little surprised at first, he didn't know how the swordsman next to King Yue would frequently appear beside him, and the young man next to him seemed to have a lot of background. When he saw the young man's sword, he couldn't help but suddenly realize.

Yu Renzhi hurriedly stood up, bowed and clasped his fists and saluted, and said: "The envoy is here, and I hope you will forgive me for not being well entertained." ”

"No need to do that, General, please take a seat." Wei Ziheng waved his hand gently, and the temperament of the messenger was now quite refined by him, and the speed of learning was especially praised by Zhong Ren on the side.

Yu Renzhi looked at Wei Ziheng's eyes, and suddenly felt that there were some important things to discuss, and then asked the unrelated people in the barracks to retreat: "I don't know, what does the envoy have to tell me?" ”

Wei Ziheng did not sit in the side seat in the barracks according to traditional etiquette, but walked around the barracks with great fanfare. This somewhat abnormal behavior aroused Yu Renzhi's suspicions, and he saw Wei Ziheng say this: "Yu Renzhi, are you guilty?" ”

Yu Ren was puzzled, this seemed to be out of nowhere, but because of the identity of the envoy of King Yue, he did not act disrespectfully at that time, I saw him say lightly: "I don't know the envoy, what my guilt is." ”

Wei Ziheng's eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his eyebrows twitched, he walked to Yu Renzhi's side, supported his hands on Yu Renzhi, and said imposingly on the table in front of him: "I was ordered by King Yue to come to punish you." It seems that you still don't know what sin you have committed. But in the eyes of King Yue, you are a sinner. ”

Yu Renzhi, as if he heard something, said: "The envoy doesn't need to point to Sang scolding Huai, what you said I am actually not guilty, but you have the heart to blame my head, and that proof may have something to do with me." I might as well get straight to the point, I'm different from those old guys in the court. ”

"What's the difference?" Wei Ziheng's rather reversed words successfully made Yu Renzhi show his attitude at the first time.

Yu Renzhi glanced at Zhong Ren slightly, and wanted to straighten his head and say to Wei Ziheng: "I know that the King of Yue is against sending troops this time, but the minister of the court thinks that he should take this opportunity to expand his territory to the west to redraw the border with the Chu State. It was originally the territory that was invaded by the state of Wu, and we, as the victorious power, should inherit all the lands of the state of Wu, including those that were seized by the state of Chu.

The Prime Minister tried his best to promote this matter, and the General Hua Qi ordered the general to carry it out. These two powers control the government, and I am not blind. ”

Wei Ziheng turned around and sat back in the lower seat that originally belonged to the guests, and said, "If that's the case, then I won't hide it anymore." This time I came to seek the help of Captain Yu, and King Yue needs you. ”

Yu Renzhi smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and then said a little strangely: "According to what you say, if I don't help King Yue, maybe I'll be guilty, right?" ”

Zhong Ren immediately pulled out a section of Yueshui, revealing a seeping cold light, and at the same time flashed Yu Renzhi's eyes, Zhong Ren stared at Yu Renzhi with an expressionless face.

Wei Ziheng tidied up his crown, and then said, "I don't think you should refuse, because maybe this is a great opportunity for you." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Shinobu began to prepare for the negotiation.

Wei Ziheng grasped an essential question and said: "General Yu Renzhi is talented, he was promoted to captain at a young age, and he also became Hua Qi's confidant general. With such an achievement, I am afraid that there is no one in the country of my country. But are you willing to stop there?

Hua Qi ordered this person to stay by his side for so long, I'm afraid you know him best! How much power do you think he will give you next? I am afraid that the duties of being a lieutenant were given to you at a young age, and I am afraid that this is also a way to cultivate a person who is loyal to him! You won't be unclear about that, will you? ”

"You go on." Yu Renzhi's expression gradually changed.

Wei Ziheng felt a little joy in his heart, and it seemed that his words had captured the essence of some problems: "King Yue will give you a chance now, and give you a chance to be on an equal footing with Hua Qi's life." Your ability is by no means limited to this, you haven't been in the court a few times, you should be eager to make decisions, right? Lord Yue admires you very much. You shouldn't just be buried under Hua Qiming's hands. It's a shortcut, a brilliant shortcut. You can think about it. ”

Yu Renzhi, after listening to it, actually smiled a little evilly: "What if I say that I am loyal to the general of Hua Qi's life." You must know that without him, I would not be where I am now. ”

Wei Ziheng, who laughed out loud, touched the table and said: "Similarly, if there is no Hua Qi Life, then it will be another Hua Qi Life that will promote you, after all, you are from behind the Jiangmen." Competence is the criterion for everything to be constant. Think about it. ”

Yu Renzhi suddenly stood up, walked to Wei Ziheng's side, sat down in front of the small table of guests beside her, and looked at Wei Ziheng face to face: "I don't know, what good is this for me?" I think I'm doing a good job now. Your terms are still not attractive enough. ”

Wei Ziheng brought a cup of tea from the table, put it between the two, and said, "This cup of tea was originally hot, but now it's cold, will you drink it?" ”

"No, it won't."

"Then when you lose your use value, will Hua Qiming still trust you like now? I'm afraid you've forgotten what you learned. Wei Ziheng picked up the cup of cold tea and shook it in front of Yu Renzhi.

"A lesson from the past? The one you're talking about......... Hahahaha......" Yu Renzhi took the cup of cold tea from Wei Ziheng's hand and drank it all: "Although the tea is cold, it is still tea." ”

"As a general, he was controlled by power, and he did not turn around and be loyal to King Yue. Do you think this is right or wrong? Wei Ziheng finally directly clarified the essence of the matter, for the generals who hold military power, they cannot be tempted by interests like the Black Tiger Gang, but must be frank about the political status quo of the country.

Yu Renzhi put down the teacup, gently slammed it on the table and said, "Say, what do you want me to do?" ”

Wei Ziheng smiled slightly, raised his head and said, "In the border battle, you have to delay time. Wait until we eradicate Luo Su's eyesight in the middle of the court and come back to clean up Hua Qi's life! Please be sure to help us during this time. In the future, someone from us will pass on a message to you, so be sure to use your cronies to connect with you. ”

"I don't know the envoy, can there be a master on the side of King Yue to help? In the past year, King Yue was young and vigorous, and he didn't care about the government, and he was afraid that there would be no powerful people around him when he was afraid of major events. Yu Renzhi said with some concern.

Wei Ziheng stood up and waved his sleeves: "Aren't I just here to seek a competent person like you?" Looking at other veterans of the DPRK and China, they are definitely not as arrogant and unreasonable as Hua Qi's life. As a young general, you should behave like a general of the country. ”

"Okay, I got it." Yu Renzhi nodded silently, as if accepting such a request.

Wei Ziheng didn't want to say any more, stood up and said, "Then I won't bother General Yu Renzhi anymore." I wish you all the best in the battle for the border, farewell. ”

Yu Renzhi stretched out a hand and said: "Wait a while, bring a word to the king of Yue for me, go to the soup and go to the fire, if the king has a life, come thousands of miles." ”

"Good! General, I'm going to go back to Langya in the next place, Luo Su is not so good, I just hope that Hua Qi will be able to hold it off. See you at a later date. Wei Ziheng said very boldly.

Zhong Ren also stepped up to the front sword and hugged his fist and said, "Then, General Yu, take your leave!" ”

Wei Ziheng has been smiling from the beginning of entering the door, including when he left, his smile has not diminished. Yu Renzhi's face at this time was a little anxious and complicated, and in addition to the contradictions, he was a little suddenly enlightened.

After Wei Ziheng left the barracks, he breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Zhong Ren: "It's okay, it's okay, it seems that some of the methods written in the ancient books are really useful." ”

Zhong Ren smiled a little sophisticatedly on the side: "You really have a set of methods for fooling." Yu Renzhi's guy must have mistakenly thought that the number of people supporting King Yue in the country had become large, otherwise with his cautious style, I am afraid he would not easily agree. He's the kind of guy who tends to do both. ”

"I can see that otherwise he wouldn't have talked to me in a roundabout way. Alright, let's go back! You have to get back to Langya as soon as possible. "Wei Ziheng must make a decision now, otherwise any hesitation will miss the best opportunity to seize power.

While doing things for King Yue wholeheartedly, not only did he sigh that Wu Meng, who had been with him for only ten days, but he also did not expect that his position would change so much.
