Chapter 508: Guilty Breaker

saw the disappointment that flashed in Jiang Wanli's eyes, and saw the helplessness on Jia Yidao's face. Shi Bin looked at Jia Ling on the side, and saw that Jia Ling gave him a soft look, as if he wanted him to comfort and comfort the two old men.

Although he couldn't accurately grasp the meaning in Jia Ling's eyes, Shi Bin didn't want the two old men who supported him to be too unhappy, so he spoke: "Please rest assured that father-in-law and Uncle Jiang, Shi Bin hereby guarantees that as long as the court does not have bad intentions for me and my brother, I will never betray the Song Dynasty, and I will not cede the land and claim the king, as for Touyuan, it is absolutely impossible." I will only be a Han person in my life, and I will not be a Yuan dog, not to mention that I am already incompatible with them. As long as there is still a possibility of mediation, I will still recognize the imperial court. As for this mediator, I am afraid that it must be someone who is capable enough. After speaking, Shi Bin looked at Jiang Wanli with a smile.

Understanding the meaning in Shi Bin's eyes, Jiang Wanli didn't want the Great Song Dynasty to split and start infighting, so he naturally agreed immediately, but just told Shi Bin to restrain himself, even if Song Ting started to have something wrong, he had to figure out the reason before deciding on countermeasures.

After listening to Jiang Wanli's words, Shi Bin immediately looked to the side, and sure enough, he found that Jia Ling was dissatisfied, so he gently pulled her sleeve and asked her to wait, while he lowered his head and thought about it.

The words were said by Jiang Wanli, an outsider who was willing to help them, and Jia Ling's anger immediately disappeared when Shi Bin pulled his sleeve, and he was replaced by the same bowed head and contemplation as Shi Bin, but it was just a little weird.

It didn't take long for Shi Bin to raise his head and say, "Okay, I can accept this condition and let Master Lu accept it, presumably it will be easier for him to accept." But the court can't test my patience, let alone be capricious. Today, I believe in Uncle Jiang's commitment to talents, and I hope you will not let us down. ”

Finally heard Shi Bin say these words, how could Jiang Wanli let him take it back? Naturally, he also promised to unite all the forces that could be united to support Shi Bin and Lu Wende against the Yuan, and never let the Song court do anything treacherous. Although he knew that this was just a good wish, with Jiang Wanli's clear statement, Shi Bin also felt a lot more comfortable.

After saying this, Shi Bin and Jia Ling found something abnormal, and Jia Yidao didn't seem to want to speak. So they all set their eyes on Jia Yidao and stared at him.

"You two are happy, what about Lu Wende? Master Jiang and I don't know his attitude yet. I don't believe you can get Lu Wende to listen to you completely. Still in doubt, Jia Rudao suddenly said.

It turned out that he was worried that Lu Wende was not of the same mind with them, and had his own plans. Shi Bin and Jia Ling understand very well why Jia Yidao is like this, after all, they have seen enough of being officials all year round, and it is normal to be cautious.

"Then ask my father-in-law to call Master Lu in and let him discuss with us. Anyway, we have reached a consensus, as long as everyone reaches a consensus, the situation of the Great Song Dynasty should be stabilized soon. Shi Bin said.

Of course, this proposal was right, Jia Rudao and Jiang Wanli also had this plan for a long time, so they immediately sent Er Zhuang to invite Lu Wende.

Although the two Zhuang people are simple, they are neat, but after a while, Lu Wende was taken to Jia Yidao's living room.

There were some surprises that Jiang Wanli was also here, so when Lu Wende entered the door, he was stunned for a moment, took an empty step, and almost fell. This little episode made the atmosphere in the hall a lot lighter, whether it was ridicule or ridicule, in short, it was a laugh. Lu Wende, a rough man, would not care about such a trivial matter, so he naturally laughed it off.

After entering the door, Lu Wende naturally sat next to Shi Bin. As soon as he sat down, he leaned over and talked to Shi Bin in a low voice. Lu Wende is not Shi Bin, and he can't be reprimanded at will, so Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli both turned a blind eye to this and let the two communicate. Just took advantage of this to convey the attitudes of Jia Nidao and Jiang Wanli to Lu Wende.

However, Lu Wende was obviously not interested in these, because what Shi Bin said was all he already knew, and the only thing he was interested in was that Jiang Wanli clearly expressed his support for the two of them to resist the Yuan. But Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli didn't say how to support it or how much.

In addition, Jia Ling also complained from time to time that Shi Bin was scolded because of this, which made Lu Wende even more unhappy.

Seeing that Lu Wende's face gradually became gloomy, Shi Bin felt that he might have said a little too much, so he closed his mouth, stopped Jia Ling's complaints, and motioned to Lu Wende to listen to what Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli had to say. Looking at the appearance of the person in front of him, Lu Wende knew that Shi Bin didn't want to say more, and Lu Wende didn't want to just listen to Shi Bin and Jia Ling, so he set his eyes on Jia Nidao and Jiang Wanli.

"Lord Jia, Lord Jiang, I heard Brother Shi say that you are very dissatisfied with our actions this time, but as long as we insist on resisting the Yuan and not opposing the imperial court, you will still support us?" Lu Wende asked. Because he is at the same level as Jia Yidao, Lu Wende is one level higher than Jiang Wanli, so Lu Wende's tone is not very polite.

can understand why Lu Wende is so unhappy, because he is here to win the support of Jia Yidao, but he didn't expect that he has been hung for more than two hours from the time he entered the door to now, which is a great disrespect for a feudal official. Even if Lu Wende was a despised general, he was very dissatisfied with it. In addition, Shi Bin suffered a lot of reproaches before him, and Lu Wende, a righteous person, was even more unhappy.

"Yes, and it's best to remove the garrison near Lin'an City." Jiang Wanli said.

"No way!" Lu Wende said very firmly and quickly, with some anger in his tone. At this time, Shi Bin coughed lightly and motioned for Lu Wende to speak softer. Perhaps because he felt that since he was discussing the issue, he shouldn't be in tension, so after hearing Shi Bin's cough, Lu Wende said softly: "Lord Jiang, why am Brother Shi and I stationed there, I believe that Brother Shi has already told you." This is just to give us additional insurance, and I believe you also know that 3,000 centaurs can't actually do anything, it's just a deterrent to the rats in the city. ”

Seeing that Lu Wende was also so firm, and gave another reasonable reason, Jiang Wanli and Jia Yidao were no longer entangled in this.

"Then Lord Lu has not thought about how to calm the emperor's anger?" Jiang Wanli said with a little smile.

"Quelling the Emperor's wrath?" If before, Lu Wende would probably think about this, but now that things have become so big, he doesn't bother to think about it. Anyway, the barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, and he doesn't mind 'leading the army to serve the king'. So after hearing Jiang Wanli's words, Lu Wende showed disdain rather than fear.

It's not that Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli have never seen this kind of hob meat, but it is the first time they have seen it from Lu Wende, so they feel a little strange, after all, he Lu Wende is also a feudal official, not a gangster, so he shouldn't be so unruly.

"What are you?" As if he suddenly didn't know Lu Wende, Jiang Wanli asked suspiciously, "Lord Lu, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Master Jiang, Brother Shi and I thank you for your support to us, I will remember your affection. But I don't want to appease the emperor's anger, I still want the emperor to appease my anger. Lu Wende snorted coldly and said.

I thought that Lu Wende's attitude would be much better after listening to Shi Bin's words, but he didn't expect that it was not much better, but he was not as irritable as before.

These words made the atmosphere in the hall become depressed, and what made Jiang Wanli feel most incredible was that the sentence 'I still want the emperor to calm my anger' actually came out of Lu Wende's mouth.

"It's really close to Zhu and red, close to ink and black!" Jia Rudao scolded angrily, and then slapped the handle of a chair fiercely.

"Master Jia, you civil officials just move their mouths. Our generals fought hard outside to protect their families and defend the country, and in the end they still had to worry about being killed by the imperial court, do you think we will not be angry? If you feel that I am talking nonsense, please lead your troops out once, win a battle, see the corpses strewn all over the field, and be wronged again. Lu Wende said coldly.

Of course, if you talk about it like this, it will definitely collapse, so Shi Bin immediately signaled Jia Ling, the wife with a bright tongue, to open her mouth to solve the siege.

"Father, what Lord Lu means is actually that he thinks it's unfair, it's not that he doesn't have the emperor in his eyes, and he just talks angrily for a while. But what he said is right, if the emperor is so indistinguishable from wrong, I am afraid that no one will be willing to die for his Zhao family at that time. Jia Ling said very calmly.

"Niece, you didn't come here to discuss these rights and wrongs with me and your father." Jiang Wanli said with a smile.

Seeing Jiang Wanli's strange smile, Shi Bin and Jia Ling immediately felt that things were going to be troublesome, and although Lu Wende was not so smart, he also realized what Jiang Wanli was going to say about something important. So all three looked at him together.

"Of course, it was intentional to hang you there before, but we are also doing the right thing, discussing how to help you consolidate your foundation and ensure that you will not be harmed by the juniors of the DPRK." Jiang Wanli said seriously.

"I believe it." Lu Wende said with certainty.

"But some things are troublesome. Now you are strong, but it is difficult to be smooth all the time. As long as the Yuan people invade the south, you will become weak, and you will start to rely on the logistics of the Great Song Dynasty. Lord Lu still remembers the days when he was besieged in Zhengzhou City before, it was uncomfortable, and it should not be an exaggeration to say that he couldn't sleep at night. Once the imperial court deliberately makes a fuss about reinforcements and grain and grass, what can you do? They can send reinforcements and food less or more slowly, so that you don't break the agreement and you will suffer enough. When the time comes, it will be difficult for us to speak for you. Jiang Wanli said calmly. Although the words were calm, the waves stirred up in Lu Wende's heart were not small.

"What then?" As if a basin of cold water was poured on his head, Lu Wende said immediately after being excited.

"What can I do? Naturally, he tried to calm the emperor's anger, and found a reason for himself to do this, and did not give anyone a handle. Jia said stiffly.

After taking a closer look at Jia Nidao and Jiang Wanli, Shi Bin understood that they already had a countermeasure in their hearts, and they were only willing to lend a helping hand only if they were soft-hearted by themselves and Lu Wende. Now Lu Wende was obviously a little anxious and not suitable to talk about it anymore, so Shi Bin spoke.

"Uncle Jiang, you and my father-in-law must have already made up their minds, please tell me. As long as it's not too much, we'll say yes. ”

After listening to Shi Bin's words, Jia Rudao and Jiang Wanli nodded with some satisfaction, and Jia Ling and Lu Wende also nodded in agreement.

"The solution is very simple, I'm really afraid that you can't accept it, and you need to suffer some grievances." Jiang Wanli said with a smile.

Grievance? Now Lu Wende and Shi Bin were unhappy when they heard the word 'grievance', their faces immediately became gloomy, and Jia Ling even glared angrily.

"How can there be a return if you don't pay? Even if it is for your own selfish interests, what is wrong with being wronged? Jiang Wanli said coldly, and then said with a sly smile: "Isn't it good to lose some face and get the inside?" If you like to slap your swollen face and become fat, then I won't talk about this method, it's up to you! ”

seems to be right, after Shi Bin, Jia Ling and Lu Wende looked at each other, they finally expressed their willingness to hear what this grievance was.

"Simple, Shi Bin, you and Lu Wende went to the guilty plea together, saying that this time you were too willful, did not follow the holy decree, and criticized yourself more. But don't admit that this is a mistake, you have to emphasize that this is a last resort, and the rest can only be done according to the agreement. Because once you admit your mistakes, you will tell the truth. This invitation just made the emperor feel more comfortable, so that he could save some face in front of the hundred officials. Jiang Wanli said very seriously.

Sure enough, he is cunning! Shi Bin sneered. actually criticized himself but didn't admit his mistake. But I have to admit that this is an extremely clever approach. Therefore, Shi Bin agreed at the first time, Lu Wende hesitated for a while, and after seeing Shi Bin's promise, he also agreed.
