When a wave of domestic peace is about to rise, it is undoubtedly the way to kill to provoke a national war.

Liu Qi still couldn't hold back in the end and said: "Since the general knows this, why don't you go up to persuade Your Majesty?" ”

Cai still glanced at Liu Qi and said: "Before we sent out the army, Lord Deng Xunwu dragged his elderly body to the court to analyze the unfavorable situation of the Great Song Dynasty to His Majesty, and then cried and begged His Majesty to give up the dream of recovering Yanyun. ”

Cai still said: "Not long ago, Zheng Zhongju Zheng heard that the Jin envoy was visiting, and said to His Majesty, don't have the idea of recovering Yanjing anymore, keep the ancestors' Sheji rivers and mountains, worthy of the sky, worthy of the people, enough, at present, the situation in the southeast is turbulent, the elite of the army has all gone to the southeast, once the Liao army takes the opportunity to go south, how can we resist?" Therefore, it is not a smart move to destroy Liao with Lianjin. ”

Cai still said again: "More than ten days ago, Empress Zheng saw that Her Majesty was in a good mood, so she persuaded: "Official, just keep the ancestor's country and govern the world well, don't always think about expanding outward, now is the era of peace, once the war breaks out, who wants to go to the front line to work hard?" Don't listen to the one-sided words of some ministers. He said: "I heard that the Jurchens are very barbaric and not easy to get along with, so if they don't come, forget it, so why should we provoke them?" If there is a cause of right and wrong, won't the gain outweigh the loss? ””

Zhendinglu appeased Hong Zhongfu to His Majesty and said: "The scholars and wealthy clans in the land of Yanyun actually have no intention of belonging, and the so-called pot pulp is groundless. Looking at today's Great Song Dynasty, the political style is corrupt, the money and food are insufficient, the army lacks combat effectiveness, and the commanders and ministers of all roads do not know the soldiers, if they rashly go out to the Northern Expedition, they will be defeated. Today, after a long period of peace, the soldiers will be lazy, and once the war starts, the army will be defeated. What is the difference between attacking another country with undisciplined arrogance and seeking fish? Failure is inevitable. If you send troops, you will bring shame on yourself and leave you in trouble......"

Zhang Yu, the general judge of Baozhou, said in a letter: "Although the power of the Liao people has been frustrated by the Jurchens, they have not rebelled, and their country is still standing. The border ministers cater to it, write it as an incident, and listen to it by mistake, and it must not be overlooked. ”

When the border general Liu Yanshou passed by Taiyuan Mansion, Xue Sichang asked him about the operation of Yanyun, and he said: "You can't keep it, you can't keep it for a long time, and your ancestors swear that once you lose it, you may have unforeseen changes." Xue Sichang then truthfully shared Liu Yanshou's words with His Majesty.

Speaking of this, Cai still looked at Liu Qi, and the corner of his eye looked at Zhao Ding, and said, "Doesn't anyone see the danger in this?" Is there no one who is directly subordinate to prevent His Majesty from recovering Yanyun? Is there still a lack of me? ”

Cai still said again: "Do you know what happened to these people who persuaded His Majesty to give up recovering Yanyun? ”

Without waiting for Liu Qi and Zhao Ding to speak, Cai still asked and replied to himself: "Lord Deng was not taken seriously by His Majesty because of his crying, and he died of depression at the beginning of this year. ”

"Lord Zheng was kicked out of the palace by His Majesty and fined for one year because of his heavy words when persuading His Majesty."

After Empress Zheng persuaded His Majesty, His Majesty said, "Do you know what the situation of Liao is now? is falling apart, this is an opportunity for Da Song, I want to seize this opportunity, do you understand? Opportunities are fleeting, and I want to get the most out of the minimum price. Don't worry about it, just wait and see. "After saying that, His Majesty left in a hurry, and he didn't see Empress Zheng again in the past month."

"Lord Hong Zhongfu of the three dynasties, not long after receiving that impassioned recital, His Majesty issued an order to let him be treated as a doctor and a doctor in Longtuge."

"Zhang Yu, Liu Yanshou, and Xue Sichang have all been removed from their posts now."

Speaking of this, Cai still said leisurely: "I'm too obsessed with this person and have a lot of interests, so I can't do this kind of thing to repay grievances with virtue." ”

Cai still analyzed himself so bluntly that Zhao Ding, who wanted to kidnap Cai Ying with morality, couldn't open his mouth at all.

After a long time, Zhao Dingcai said: "Even if you can't repay your grievances with virtue, you can't repay virtue with grievances." ”

Cai was still finally silent.

To be fair, Zhao Ji still treats Cai well.

Moreover, no matter what the process is, at least in terms of results, Cai still slept with Zhao Ji's three daughters, and Zhao Ji's three daughters were pregnant with Cai Ji's children, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhao Ji is Cai Ji's father-in-law.

Therefore, Cai is still anti-Zhao Ji, which is unreasonable and morally untenable.

Although Cai still doesn't want to face these things, he can't keep running away.

The key is, let's not talk about reasonableness and morality, if Cai is still anti-Song in this situation, not only will he leave a huge stain on his life, but he will also be blocked everywhere on the way to replace Zhao Song because of the loss of righteousness.

Therefore, Cai was still silent for a while, no, it should be said that he has been thinking about it for a long time (it is really a long time, since Cai still had the ability to rebel, Cai still has begun to think about this matter), and then said: "If Zhao Song does not lose his deer, how can I risk the world's disapproval to chase him?" ”

Zhao Ding, who was already in despair, suddenly lit up his eyes after hearing Cai Ying's words!

Over there, Liu Qi also breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing Cai Ying's words!

Afraid that Cai would still regret it, Zhao Ding hurriedly asked: "The general is saying that if the Great Song Dynasty does not die, you will not oppose Zhao Song?" ”

Seeing that Zhao Ji was already so mediocre and tossed, and there were people like Zhao Ding and Liu Qi defending Zhao Song, Cai still said in his heart: "Zhao Song has not yet died." ”

In addition, Cai still didn't want to compete with Zhao Song and the sandpiper to be profited by the fisherman.

Cai still said: "Zhao Song will not die, become prosperous, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, so I will return here and be the owner of an island and govern the people of an island, how about it?" ”

When Zhao Ding heard this, he bowed to the ground and said: "Zhao Ding thank you for the Song family and the people of the world!" ”

"For the common people of the world?" Cai still pouted and smiled, and then said: "One day, you will find that handing over the world to Zhao Song is the real harm to the people of the world." ”

Zhao Ding took a deep breath and said: "I believe that the Great Song Dynasty will definitely get better, even if the current Majesty is a little unsatisfactory, the future Majesty will definitely work hard to make the world peaceful." ”

Cai still wanted to laugh, "Zhao Ding actually pinned his hopes on Zhao Huan, the most wasteful emperor in history, it's so funny...... If Zhao Ji does not abdicate to Zhao Huan, Zhao Song may be able to save a little and abdicate to Zhao Huan, then Zhao Song is the real mortal. ”

But Cai is still talking to Zhao Ding about this, it doesn't make sense at all, and time will prove to Zhao Ding how outrageous he was wrong.

Cai still said: "You know, talking counts can be said to be one of my few advantages. ”

In the eyes of Zhao Ding and Liu Qi, Cai is still modest - in their hearts, Cai is still really a civil and military all-rounder, and his vision, vision and resourcefulness are peerless.

In addition, talking counts is indeed one of Cai Ying's many advantages.

Therefore, Zhao Ding and Liu Qi believed in Cai's promise.

Cai still said: "I can promise you that Zhao Song will not die, become prosperous, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, I will return here, be the lord of an island, and govern the people of an island, but you also have to make some promises." ”

Zhao Dingxin said: "Here, Cai Ziyin is really like what he said, never doing loss-making business." ”

Liu Qi showed a wry smile, he had already vaguely guessed what Cai was still going to say.

Really!

Cai still then said: "I'm covered in iron, how many nails can I twist?" If I don't fight for Zhao Song's territory, I have to manage my own territory, and this is absolutely impossible for me to do on my own, so you and those of us who have similar thoughts to you must stay by my side and help me in this life. ”

Afraid that Zhao Ding and Liu Qi would not agree, Cai still said: "You can also understand this as an exchange, or even as a sacrifice." ”

Zhao Ding took a deep breath and said, "As long as the general does not dislike Zhao Ding's low ability, Zhao Ding is willing to run this island for the general, and he will try his best to persuade others to devote themselves to building this island." ”

Liu Qi clenched his fists and said, "Liu Qi is also willing to run this island for the general, and he will try his best to persuade others to work for the general." ”

Cai still nodded, and said: "You are gentlemen, I am not, and I can't risk the lives of these nearly a million people, so I can't just believe your promises." ”

Zhao Ding and Liu Qi also knew that at Cai Ying's current height, they couldn't make impulsive decisions just by patting their heads.

Therefore, seeing that Cai still said it bluntly, Zhao Ding also asked bluntly: "I don't know what the general wants us to take as a guarantee?" ”

Cai still looked at Zhao Ding, and asked instead of answering: "Thirty-six Niang is almost fifteen, right?" ”

When Zhao Ding heard this, he immediately understood what Cai still had in mind.

After being silent for a while, Zhao Ding said: "I will be fifteen years old in two months." ”

Cai still said: "Let Thirty-six Niang be a concubine for me, don't worry, I will treat her well." ”

Zhao Thirty-six Niang is the only daughter of Zhao Ding, and her appearance is not a national beauty, she can only be said to be beautiful, generous and decent.

Therefore, Cai still wants to accept Zhao Thirty-six Niang as a concubine, of course, not because he likes her.

The reason why Cai still wants to accept Zhao Thirty-six Niang as a concubine is because, as long as Zhao Ding agrees, then Cai Ying and Zhao Ding are two grasshoppers tied to a rope, if one day in the future, Zhao Ji wants to copy Cai Zhen's house and ask Cai Zhen's family, Zhao Ding's family will never be able to escape.

This is Wu Yong's trick to Cai Ying, to ensure that people like Zhao Ding and Liu Qi must follow Cai Yi to the dark no matter whether they want to or not.

Although this plan is a bit despicable, it is very effective in this era of attaching great importance to relatives, because once Zhao Ding chooses to betray Cai Zhen, then he will betray his relatives and become a lonely family, and that's it, the problem is that even if he falls into such a field, it is very likely that he will not be trusted by Zhao Song.

Zhao Ding understood that as long as he agreed to Cai Ying's conditions, then he would be completely tied to Cai Zhen.

Zhao Ding was silent for a while, and said: "In this way, I will take advantage of the general, go back and write a letter to me, and the general will take my handwritten letter and go to my house to take the thirty-six away." ”

Cai still said: "Not only Thirty-six Niang, I will bring all Zhao Changshi's family members to reunite with you." ”

Zhao Ding secretly sighed that Cai was still not leaking, and then bowed to the ground and said, "In this way, it will trouble the general." ”

Cai still looked at Liu Qi again.

Liu Qi obviously had already prepared in his heart, and when he saw Cai Ying, he said: "The younger sister is fourteen years old, and her appearance and figure are still considered to be selected, if the general does not dislike it, he will also give it to the general......
