After all, a merchant is a businessman, and when it comes to the intrigues and military affairs of the court, Chen Xinjia obviously knows much more than the Jin merchants.

Therefore, when he heard these Jin merchants patting his ass, he was still very proud in his heart. No matter what, it's worth it after all to take so much of your money!

All of a sudden, the atmosphere at the banquet suddenly became warm again.

But at some point, the door of the living room was suddenly pushed open, and suddenly, a cold wind poured in, making the lively scene inside quiet.

No one is allowed to enter the drawing room without being commanded. But at this time, someone came in, and everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look over.

Among them, Chen Xinjia was even more unhappy in his heart, because he was the master, and if he came in without his consent, wouldn't he slap the master in the face?

But when he turned his head to look and saw that it was his butler, he was in a slightly better mood. Because he understands that the housekeeper is a measured person, and unimportant things will not bother him. What's more, the housekeeper knows about those things between him and Jin Shang.

At this time, what is important to him most concerned about? Seeing that the housekeeper's face was a little grim, he felt a little bad in his heart, which shouldn't be a good thing.

Sure enough, he saw the housekeeper walking quickly to his side and whispered in a low voice: "Master, Jingshi Yang Gebu has replied." ”

After finishing speaking, he respectfully presented a letter in both hands to his master.

When Chen Xinjia saw it, he didn't care about being polite with Jin merchants, so he immediately took the letter, checked the lower seal, and then opened it and took out the letter to read it.

Fan Yongdou and the other eight Jin merchants all looked at Chen Xinjia, not knowing where the letter was, which made the housekeeper so cautious.

They stared at Chen Xinjia and obviously noticed that Chen Xinjia's face slowly became ugly as he read the letter. Obviously, the contents of the letter should be something that upsets him.

After reading it, Chen Xinjia handed the letter to Fan Yongdou beside him, frowned and said to the others: "It's a letter from the Yang Pavilion, saying that the emperor doesn't know what's wrong, he had a dream, he dreamed of Taizu, and then it's like a different person, and he is resolutely fighting against the Qing Dynasty." And Lu Xiangsheng happens to be a firm main battle faction, so the emperor trusts Lu Xiangsheng very much, and even issued gold medals before urging the director to rescue Lu Xiangsheng. Therefore, Yang Gebu believes that the current emperor will not listen to his advice and will not put pressure on Lu Xiangsheng, and he completely believes in Lu Xiangsheng! ”

As soon as he finished saying this, all of a sudden, these Jin businessmen present couldn't help but look at each other. Just now, he was still happy, and he felt that the governor had the foresight, and he had already contacted Yang Gebu in advance, saying that the emperor would put pressure on Lu Xiangsheng and urge him to fight in a hurry. In this way, Lu Xiangsheng will be defeated, and the Qing army will be able to plunder more wealth, which can go into their pockets with a turn of their heads, naturally the more the better!

Unexpectedly, it had only been a while, and as soon as this letter arrived, the dream was shattered.

At this time, Fan Yongdou also finished reading Yang Sichang's letter, handed it to Wang Dengku beside him, and then looked at Chen Xinjia, and asked with a serious face: "Lord Governor, what should I do now?" ”

"That's right, the affairs of the court still have to be thought of by the Governor." Guest Liang also immediately chimed in, "If you want to use money, no problem, let's come out, we must bring down this Lu Xiangsheng!" ”

The others also echoed one after another, but when they saw Chen Xinjia frowning and thinking, they quieted down again and stared at Chen Xinjia with an expectant face.

In the living room, there was a sudden silence.

After I don't know how long, Chen Xinjia suddenly raised his head, looked at these Jin merchants, and said in a cold voice: "If the Qing army can take the initiative to win some battles, it doesn't have to defeat Lu Xiangsheng, such as conquering other cities. In this way, spending some more money and uniting some more people to impeach Lu Xiangsheng should also be able to shake the emperor's trust in Lu Xiangsheng! ”

Speaking of this, after a pause, he said in a cold voice: "The greater the victory of the Qing army, the greater the responsibility of Lu Xiangsheng, who commanded all the Qinwang army, and the better the effect of impeachment!" ”

Hearing this, the eight major Jin merchants all nodded their heads and agreed with this statement.

Among them, Fan Yongdou also thought about it seriously for a while, and suddenly asked Chen Xinjia: "What do you think the emperor cares about?" ”

Chen Xinjia was a little puzzled when he heard this, and his brows furrowed slightly when he looked at him when he heard the sound.

When Fan Yongdou saw it, he hurriedly explained further: "What kind of city is the Qing army going to conquer that will make the emperor angry?" My lord, think about it, if the city that the emperor cares about very much is knocked down by the Qing army, and the emperor is furious, the impeachment chapter is handed up, and Lu Xiangsheng is trusted by the emperor again? Surely the punishment will be punished! ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Fan is so reasonable!" When Wang Dengku heard this, he clapped his hands and said happily, "If you choose such a city to fight down, then Lu Xiangsheng will definitely be unlucky!" ”

Liang Guest also nodded again and again, and even gave a thumbs up and said: "Brother Fan is on the point, the defeat is not painful, and he may not be able to help Lu Xiangsheng, but if the city that the emperor cares about is beaten down, under the emperor's anger, Lu Xiangsheng will definitely be in trouble!" ”

The other Jin merchants also clapped their hands and praised one after another, and for a while, everyone's eyes turned to Chen Xinjia again, expecting him to come out with a qualified goal.

Chen Xinjia also felt that it was very reasonable, and he immediately turned his head and instructed the housekeeper standing on the side: "Go to the study and get the map." ”

The butler listened to the whole thing, knew that it was very important, and hurriedly agreed, so he hurried to get the map.

Immediately, these people left the banquet and gathered in a corner on the side, the map was hung, and then Chen Xinjia stared at the map. The eight Jin merchants gathered around him, and they also looked at this military map in a good way.

Looking at it, suddenly, Chen Xinjia's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he stepped forward, pointed to a place with his finger, turned his head to look at the eight Jin merchants, and said a little excitedly: "If the Qing army can take this place, then Lu Xiangsheng's head will definitely be difficult to protect!" “

As soon as he heard that the effect was so good, all of a sudden, the eight major Jin merchants all stared at the place where Chen Xinjia touched the ground with his finger. However, although they recognized the word, they couldn't see why the emperor attached so much importance to this place, it was really important that losing this place could make Lu Xiangsheng's head go to ruin?

Seeing the puzzled look on their faces, Chen Xinjia regained his complacent attitude just now and explained to them.

Seeing that they were all happy, he himself immediately frowned and said, "But there is also a question, how can the Qing army take this city?" ”

yes, that seems to be a problem too! Happy right now, it seems a little too happy!

When these eight Jin merchants heard this, they began to bow their heads and think about it again.

Suddenly, Fan Yongdou clapped his hands, made a "snap" sound, and then said excitedly: "There are several of our industries there, and there are many people who can use them." Under the combination of inside and outside, you can always win it, right? ”
