Pick it up yourself?

Hearing this, the five heads of the family changed color one after another, and their legs were weak in fright, especially the oldest head of the Guo family, after hearing this, one of them almost knelt on the ground, but the head of the Xie family next to him helped him and adjusted the crutches, which stabilized his figure.

It's not that Yang Mu's words are powerful, but it mainly shows an attitude, once Cangguo is not uncommon to cooperate with these people, it is still a question whether they can go back.

The head of the Gongsun family was the most calm and calm, bowed down, and said, "Your Majesty, think twice, our major families have come with sincerity precisely to discuss peace with Your Majesty. ”

"Oh? Peace? Yang Mu was slightly surprised, the identities of these people are not just the heads of the major families, as the family lords, the heads of the major families all hold important positions in the court, so many people are united, and they are indeed qualified to negotiate peace.

"A few days ago, we asked His Royal Highness to contact Cangguo, which shows our sincerity." The head of the Gongsun family said.

"Yes, we have never thought of starting a war with Cangguo, we have had business contacts for many years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that we are friends." The head of the Guo family hurriedly said.

Yang Mu nodded, there was not much conflict of interest between the nobles of the two countries, which was true, but he had never heard of Zheng Han sending someone to negotiate peace.

Zheng Han, do you really have the intention of making peace? Yang Mu couldn't help frowning.

The five heads of the family observed the words and knew that Yang Mu had misunderstood, so they glanced at each other, and at the same time gave the head of the Gongsun family a look.

"Ahem...... Your Majesty, this matter still needs to be explained below. The head of the Gongsun family bowed and said: "His Royal Highness was full of promises, but did not put into action, yesterday I heard that there was a fierce battle between the Eastern Camp and your army, and then I realized that he was just prevaricating us, so we came together to express our goodwill and discuss the matter of peace." ”

"So, he promised you on the go, but secretly he was sending troops?" Yang Mu was surprised, paper can't contain the fire, since Zheng Han agreed to the requirements of these family valves, then there will be a day to confess after all, so yang and yin, coupled with yesterday's transfer of Dongdaying, the deep meaning behind it is self-evident.

Zheng Han must be integrating the country's troops, planning to compete with the Cang army.

Because it is obvious that the more it drags on, the more unfavorable the situation will be for Zheng Guo's army, not only the common people will rebel, but even the nobles in the country are pulling back.

The sooner the decisive battle, the more beneficial it would be for Zheng Jun.

But can it succeed?

Yang Mu couldn't help but think secretly, and then said to a few family heads: "Since a few people keep saying that they want to make peace, I don't know what sincerity they have?" ”

"We are willing to persuade Emperor Dazheng to cede three cities to Cangguo, and at the same time offer a million taels of silver as a sign of friendship."

"Just cut the land, pay compensation?" Yang Mu pondered for a moment and said, "I am willing to consider the matter of peace, but in addition, there is also a condition. ”

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Cang, please speak, as long as we can do it, we will do our best!" Hearing this, the eyes of several heads of the family lit up.

Yang Mu touched his chin and said, "Zheng Han is sinister and cunning, he has calculated my Cangguo many times, and he even dared to meddle in the internal affairs of my Cangguo, which led to a palace change, so no matter what, I don't want him to sit on the throne." ”

Several family heads glanced at each other and said tentatively: "Then Your Majesty, what do you mean?" ”

Yang Mu said: "According to what I have seen, Zheng Kang, the third prince of your country, is very good, and it is precisely because of his sincerity that our army has not attacked Kangcheng so far to show friendship." ”

The head of the Liang family hesitated: "This ...... The position of the prince is appointed by His Majesty, and we have no right to intervene, and now the military power is in the hands of His Royal Highness, I am afraid that my Majesty Emperor Zheng Guo will not interfere. ”

"Our major families only have private soldiers, and it is okay to govern the country, but I am afraid it is far from enough to dominate the selection of the throne."

"Please also ask for your Majesty's understanding."

Everyone shook their heads, saying that they could not do anything.

"Everyone's misunderstood." Yang Mu laughed and said, "You are afraid of Zheng Han's military power, and I will fight him until he has no military power, how about it?" ”

The head of the Gongsun family said: "Forgive the foreign minister, Your Majesty is too arrogant, my Zheng army is tens of thousands, and it is not something that can be dealt with in a few words." ”

"You don't have to worry about that." Yang Mu waved his hand and said, "A battle with Zheng Han is inevitable, I just hope that you will support Zheng Kang and let him negotiate with my Cangguo...... Of course, the heads of the family can also continue to support Zheng Han, but when our Cang army breaks through the imperial city, it will inevitably lead to the destruction of the family and the end of the punishment. ”

Raiding the family and exterminating the clan, and the punishment will be added......

The five heads of the family suddenly had a chilling feeling, two months had passed, and the disposition after the coup d'état of Cangguo had already spread all over Zheng Guo, especially Ling Chi's punishment, when he thought of such a big punishment on himself......

"Next, I will talk to you about cooperation......" Yang Mu ignored the reactions of these family heads, and said to himself: "Zheng Han is a heinous person, if you want to support him, there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation between the two countries." However, if you can support Zheng Kang, I dare to guarantee that you will all be like the Gu family, the Gu family, and the Yang family, and no one will dare to touch a single hair of you. ”

Same as the Gu family, the Gu family, and the Hong family?

Several family heads are very moved, in fact, they are also very envious of the Gu, Gu, and Hong families, although they are only the second-rate families of Zheng Guo, but they have taken the chariot of the Cang army, these days Zheng Guo's cities have fallen one after another, and the industries of the three of them have not been affected, if their own family can also get such treatment, then even if Zheng Cheng is broken, or it is said to be a change of emperor, it doesn't matter much.

Yang Mu saw that several families took the initiative to shake it, and continued: "Those who are friendly with my Cangguo are the guests, and those who are enemies of my Cangguo are prisoners under the stairs...... You all used to support Zheng Han, and my Da Cang's palace change also has the shadow of any of your families, and these can all be opened. However, I want to tell you that my Da Cangxing division mobilized the Northern Expedition, and I never thought of going back in disgrace, to put it bluntly, as long as I write an edict, the people of your Zheng State will willingly join the Cang army, and my Da Cang army will have a steady stream of soldiers to replenish it, and it is a big deal to delay some time, and your Zheng State will die! Wait, you will be punished! ”

Hearing this, the five heads of the family were speechless one by one.

Those who are friendly with Cangguo are guests.

Those who are hostile to the Cangguo are prisoners.

Gu, Gu, and Yang are the best examples.

And to become a goodwill of Cangguo, you only need to support Zheng Kang, no matter who wins or loses in the war between the two countries, the major families will not suffer losses.

It's an irresistible temptation. ()
