King Xian was undecided, and asked Gao Xun first:

"Gao Qing, how about Fan Xiang's discussion?"

"Since the king has decided not to make an alliance, he should continue to hold his own opinion, and should not go back on his word because of petty gains. Moreover, the Jin people have always been untrustworthy, and it is so easy to return Jiangdong Dongjun, there must be fraud in it. ”

When Fan Tao heard this, he immediately refuted it:

"Lord Changshi is so bloody, don't you feel shameless and ridiculous! If my Jin country has no faith, how can I send 300,000 troops to defend the territory of Xianguo, it is our Jin country that has the faith and righteousness to garrison Xianguo, so as to protect the current situation of Xianguo, if there is no help from my Jin country, Xianguo may have already disappeared of course.

Now my Jin State is returning Jiangdong Dongjun as a condition, in exchange for the Xian State to send troops to the alliance, this is also a word of no faith, that the Xian State is afraid of the head and tail, only knows how to steal a corner of peace, I don't know for the people of the world to eliminate violence and peace, what face of the Xian State stands among the princes, it is simply unreasonable! ”

From the perspective of profit-seeking, the Jin State and the Black Turban Rebellion had neither a sea connection nor a land border, and there was neither economic interest nor land harvest in sending troops to attack the Black Turban Army.

Speaking of which, the Jin army has garrisoned Xianguo for more than ten years, and without the Jin army blocking it, Xianguo has been wiped out ten times and eight times by the Black Turban Army.

Of course, it can be refuted, in fact, the Black Turban Army never believed that the Jin Army would take the initiative to help the Xian State, so the Black Turban Army has always been fearless in front of the Jin Army, and even the Jin Army has tacitly cooperated with the military operations of the Black Turban Army many times, wantonly releasing water to harm the Xian Army.

But politics is politics, and in reality it cannot be refuted that the Jin army's garrison in Xianguo did not play any substantive role, from a military and political point of view, this idea is ridiculous and naïve, even if the Jin army is clearly releasing water, he is now under the guise of "justice", you can't say anything, so you can't talk about things on the table at all, let alone take it seriously.

Therefore, Gao Xun's refutation is insignificant, and he is pale and powerless in front of the righteous act of the Jin State's "selfless justice and awe-inspiring".

What is even more sad is that some people in the court still believe in this view, and some people know it, but they tend to be inflammatory.

King Xian was a little anxious at first, of course he knew that there was fraud in it, but Jiangdong Dongjun was different from any land, it was a land that was lost in his hands, a land that was ceded during his lifetime, and a shame that was intertwined with defeat and hatred.

In the face of great temptation, it is often easy to let impulse prevail over reason, especially in a monarchy, where the will of the monarch is above all else, and all life and death are tied to the hands of one person. King Xian is a good hand at hedonism, but he is not a sophisticated politician, and his political determination is limited.

At the critical moment, Bai Liyan stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say."

Baili Yan made a sound, and King Xian's heart was relieved when he heard the news, and his hurry and helplessness were suddenly empty, so he immediately answered and asked:

"What do you think about Da Si Nong?"

"The minister thinks that the issue of the recovery of Jiangdong Dongjun can be discussed, but the alliance can also not go."

As soon as the words came out, whether they went or not, they all exploded, and Fan Tao asked:

"It turned out to be Gongzi Yan, I haven't seen him for many years, Yan Gongzi is really impressive."

Bai Liyan sneered:

"Hehe, the shamelessness of the Jin Kingdom is also impressive."

"Humph!" Fan Tao didn't give a positive answer, but turned to him: "Yan Gongzi escaped from the Jin Kingdom without permission back then, what do you say about this!" ”

"Of course, it is to help the King of Jin swallow the kingdom of Qi."

"You!" Where did Fan Tao think that Baili Yan had no lower limit and said wildly: "Gongzi Yan, as a Qi person, don't you feel ashamed to slander your mother country so much." If there is no Jin country without me, the country will be destroyed early, and there will be no country today. ”

"But the King of Jin and Uncle Kuo back then, didn't they say so to this son, such as helping this son to return to the country to kill Baililu, and then seize the throne, and then promise the princess, Xu Tuqi throne, etc., why, the old prime minister of the uncle did not secretly explain to Fan Xiangguo? Or is it that this son was confined in the Xiangguo Mansion back then? ”

"Bunch of gibberish!"

Fan Tao scolded angrily, and Bailiyan sneered:

"Since Fan Xiang said that this son is nonsense, isn't it nonsense that King Jin promised to return Jiangdong Dongjun today. I knew that I would pay it back today, so why did I take it in the first place. Ben Hou suspected that Prime Minister Fan Tao failed to comprehend the deep meaning of King Jin and conveyed it wrongly. ”

"It is not wrong for me to come to the throne on behalf of my king to take full counsel on this matter. The premise for the return of Jiangdong Dongjun is that Xianguo must go to the Changsun National Alliance, otherwise everything will not be discussed. ”

"Huh!" Bai Liyan sneered, and continued: "My king will not go to the alliance, but we can talk about when Jiangdong Dongjun will be returned now." ”

"No way!" Fan Tao sternly refused.

"Then, how about Ben Hou lead 200,000 elite soldiers and wipe out your Zhenbei army!"

"You dare! During the alliance, the princes boycotted the army, and whoever raised an army to attack secretly was punished by everyone. ”

"Prime Minister Fan hasn't forgotten, Xianguo has not decided to go to the alliance, so how can he say that he will join the alliance."

"Xianguo is a subordinate state of our country, and the upper state will be an alliance, and you and other lower states must obey it and regard it as an ally. Now the Xian State has decided to abandon the alliance without the consent of our Jin State, which is really a treacherous act, and it really makes the people of the world laugh. ”

"Oh...... Ben Hou understood that Prime Minister Fan Cheng was not here to discuss any alliance today, nor did he return Jiangdong Dongjun, but he came to Xingshi to ask for guilt. ”

"Ridiculous!" Fan Tao scoffed: "My king sincerely returned to Jiangdong Dongjun and persuaded Xianguo to send troops to the alliance, how could he come to Xingshi to ask for guilt." ”

"Then please ask Prime Minister Fan Cheng to tell me the king and tell the hundred officials of our country what is the relationship between returning Jiangdong Dongjun to the Huimeng. If the alliance is to suppress the Black Turban rebellion, even if the Xian State does not go to the Alliance, it will naturally send troops to besiege the Black Turban thieves and recover the lost territory of our Xian State.

And the Jin State took Jiangdong Dongjun as a condition to lure our king to go to the alliance, do you say that after the Xianguo Alliance, there is no need to send troops to attack the black turban thieves, and the Jin State can also return Jiangdong Dongjun. ”

"This prime minister has never said it, but it is the words of your Baili Yan!"

"That is to say, the return of Jiangdong Dongjun has nothing to do with the alliance, but it is so."

"Of course there is a relationship, and the return of Jiangdong Dongjun is a condition of the alliance, how can there be no involvement."

"What is that alliance?"

Bai Liyan asked repeatedly, and Fan Tao was really annoyed:

"Bailiyan, the alliance is the alliance, why bother repeatedly pestering and making difficulties."

"Humph! The alliance is to attack the black scarf, and the alliance will not ally our Xianguo to attack the black scarf, and the alliance will return Jiangdong Dongjun to our Xianguo, and if it will not be united, it will not be returned, and they will both besiege the black scarf, what is the reason! ”

"The alliance is a famous teacher, and it is a move to obey the heavens, and only the blood is the alliance is the teacher of justice, which is the justice of heaven."

"According to Prime Minister Fan's words, only the alliance is famous for being a teacher in response to the order, then before that, the disaster of the black turban swept the Central Plains, and the people who died in the battle of my Xianguo defended the land and sacrificed their lives.

"You ......"

Fan Tao was angry and did not allow him to speak, Bai Liyan reprimanded sharply:

"Shut up! The so-called alliance is just a strong bully to divide the interests of other countries, your Jin country is not separated by water, and the two are not adjacent, but now you want to give up Jiangdong Dongjun as the name, deceive my Wang Huimeng, try to ask the world is not profitable to lose the land, how can there be!

Prime Minister Fan, can you tell Ben Hou that you will be good in this battle of the Jin Kingdom? ”

"It is my king's duty to be righteous and righteous for the world, not like you and other treacherous and untrustworthy people who talk about benefits in vain, so how different from a villain of interests. Yan Gongzi's words are really not humane to the world, and he disdains to argue with you. ”

Fan Tao no longer paid attention to Baili Yan, and rushed to the front of the palace at the next moment, and challenged King Xian:

"Whether Jiangdong Dongjun is returned or not, it is only in the thought of King Xian, I hope King Xian will cherish it!"

"Widow ......"

King Xian was undecided, and at this time Gao Xun said:

"The king, the words of the Marquis of Yongxing, the Jin people claim to be righteous and unprofitable, but in fact they are hidden, and there must be ulterior motives behind the return of Jiangdong East County, and the king cannot be trusted!"

"Lord Changshi!" Fan Tao roared: "You keep saying that my Jin Kingdom is profitable, may I ask Lord Changshi, what is the profit of my Jin Kingdom, Lord Changshi will say it." ”

Gao Xun was speechless, of course he knew that the Jin people were here to plot Yongxing City, and the return of Jiangdong Dongjun must also be related to the plot Yongxing City.

But at this moment, it can't be noisy, Bailiyan has already made a clever plan, but Fan Tao doesn't know, now it's noisy, not to mention that Fan Tao will not admit it, all the preparations made before will be in vain, and the Jin people will find another way to try Yongxing again, and the situation will be even more unfavorable at that time.

King Xian hesitated, so he had to ask Bailiyan again

"Yongxing Hou, what can I do about this matter?"

"The king, the minister has also figured it out, the alliance can go, and the east county of Jiangdong can also be wanted, but the Jin people have to pay the profits of Jiangdong for nearly 20 years, so you can talk about the profits before the alliance, and the profits should be counted from the time when our country died in the war, and the losses of these years should be borne by the Jin State, and the ministers think that only in this way can the alliance be met."

Fan Tao was annoyed and angry when he heard the news:

"Bailiyan, don't get an inch!"

"Prime Minister Fan, the Jin State occupies my Jiangdong East County and now returns it, so it is enough to show that the Jin State borrowed this land from our country, so it should pay the income tax and its due profits in the past two decades, as well as the Xian soldiers and people who have been killed by the Jin people over the years, so I ask Prime Minister Fan Cheng to forward this matter to the King of Jin.

In addition, Ben Hou advised Prime Minister Fan that the 300,000 Jin army is more than the 800,000 Jin Xuedi elite! ”

"You threaten who you are."

"How dare Ben Hou threaten the King of Jin who takes the rise and fall of the world as his own responsibility, Ben Hou just wants to tell Prime Minister Fan Cheng that General Ben only used only 300,000 weak brigades to play 800,000 Jin Xuedi elite as his own applause, and today there are 300,000 people in the Jin Military Region, Ben Hou only needs 100,000 elites, and he can be wiped out in half a year.

I advise Prime Minister Fan Cheng, Jin Xuedi is now in the east of Chenling City, Lord Fan can ask in person, if you still want face and acquaintance, you want to go quickly, don't wait for Benhou to use the word roll! ”

"You are presumptuous, rude!"

"Hmph, come and don't be rude, for shameless people, Ben Hou is too lazy to pay attention." After finishing speaking, Bailiyan turned to King Xian and said: "Great King, the minister thinks that he can meet the alliance, but the Jin State must pay compensation and losses first, please ask the king to know the truth." ”

"Well, what Yongxing Hou said is very much in line with the hearts of the widows, uh... Prime Minister Fan, since the King of Jin wants to pay it back, it is borrowed, since it is borrowed, the principal and interest must be returned together, please ask Prime Minister Fan Cheng to transfer it to the King of Jin, and the widow of the alliance can consider it. ”

"Shameless!" Fan Tao scolded, his face darkened with anger: "I have never seen you waiting for such a shameless monarch, hum!" ”

Fan Tao was so angry that he brushed his sleeves away, and in the end, he didn't even leave the old cold ginseng, and took it away.
