Chapter 230: Multi-party Liaison and Stepping on Several Boats (2)

Zuo Youxian came to Ma Yi non-stop, or the same routine as before, paved the road with gold and silver, and first opened up the road to Song Jingang's mansion, but the difference is that Song Jingang is more intelligent than Cao Dan, which makes people feel that Song Jingang is more difficult to deal with than Cao Dan:

"Come, come, come! Lord Zuo, I've worked hard all the way, I think it's strange, why did we have a salt panic in the area of Taiyuan Mayi, it turned out to be that bastard bastard of Cao Dan of the Great Xia Kingdom. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Eating the food in his mouth, he only felt a little bit of salt, Zuo Youxian understood in his heart that this was still the salt that Song Jingang took out in order to entertain his distinguished guest, if it wasn't for the arrival of his distinguished guest, I am afraid that Song Jingang would not even add this little bit of salt.

"Hey! Generalissimo Song said seriously, and only after he came to Ma Yi did he hear that Dou Jiande even broke the salt road to Liu Wuzhou's prince, which was too much. It's also a step too late, but the generalissimo, please rest assured, after the next return, I will report to my lord Wu Wang Fu Gongtuo, and ask my lord to send capable personnel to deliver salt as soon as possible. Song Jingang replied with satisfaction:

"Thank you very much, but I don't know the price?" Zuo Youxian hurriedly said:

"What did the generalissimo say at this time, the folk brothers still have the saying of helping the needy, not to mention that if you and I can become allies, then what is the price of the first batch of support Yanba! We're all friends. ”

"Yes! Are you all friends? What kind of money do you talk about, does it hurt to talk about money! Song Jingang was also laughing on the side, and Zuo Youxian continued to ask Song Jingang:

"Generalissimo Song, I don't know when King Dingyang will see me." Song Jingang smiled and said:

"Oh! I have already reported to the king of Dingyang, and the king of Dingyang will see you in two days, and I have also asked the king of Dingyang about the things that your lord Zuo asked the king of Dingyang, but the prince did not speak, but according to the level of understanding of the prince, the prince has some considerations for forming an alliance, but the most important thing is to be careful. Song Jingang pointed to the north:

"Your Excellency, you're talking about the Turks." Song Jingang nodded:

"Lord Zuo, you also know that our King Dingyang was ordained by the Turkic Khan, and if there is no approval of the Turkic Khan, our King Dingyang will have to weigh what he wants to do. Therefore, you Lord Zuo still have to meet the prince of Dingyang, but whether you form an alliance or not depends on whether you can get the approval of the Turkic Khan. Zuo Youxian nodded:

"Thank you Generalissimo Song for your guidance, someone is coming!" Zuo Youxian slapped again, a very delicate wooden box was brought up from someone, the wooden box was decorated with red silk, Zuo Youxian opened the wooden box, and the bottom was made of yellow satin, and the top was carved into two jasper mandarin ducks with high-quality jasper jade, and there are differences between these two mandarin ducks, that is, the abdomen of the jasper mandarin duck has always been a hint of light blue, and the abdomen of the other jasper mandarin duck is a hint of white. And there seems to be a hint of coolness in the night.

"Generalissimo Song, these two mandarin ducks are made of the high-grade jade jade that was paid tribute to Yang Guang by the overseas Yi country, you are running around in front of the saddle for my business, it is really hard, this little thing is a little bit of heart." When Song Jingang just saw the pair of jasper carved mandarin ducks, his eyes straightened. Now when I heard that I was going to give it to him, I was even more overjoyed.

"Oops! Left-sama! Isn't this gift too expensive! Song Jingang pushed the box king Zuo Youxian on his face, but in fact, his eyes never left the pair of mandarin ducks, staring straight at it! How could Zuo Youxian not know that Song Jingang was pretending to shirk, so he put the wooden box on the wine table and stretched his waist again.

"Ahh Generalissimo Song, I won't tell you, I'm too tired from traveling on this auspicious day, so I won't bother you, I will go back to the post house to rest first, and I won't send it or not! As he spoke, he didn't take the wooden box away, but got up and left directly. Song Jingang got up to see him off, Zuo Youxian walked quickly as if he was avoiding him, and also turned around and said:

"Generalissimo Song, you don't have to get up to see each other!" After Song Jingang saw Zuo Youxian leaving, he took the two pieces of jasper jade mandarin ducks in his hands and observed them carefully. Two days later, Zuo Youxian finally met Liu Wuzhou, and as Song Jingang expected, Liu Wuzhou was not enthusiastic about forming an alliance to deal with Li Tang together:

"Zuo Xiangguo heard that there was a salt shortage in our country, took the initiative to come to our country, and offered to help, this king felt very happy after hearing it! Thank you so much. Zuo Youxian smiled and said:

"The prince is polite. When I heard that the people of your country suddenly ran off salt when I was in Jiangnan, I was very sad in my heart, and I said something that should not be said, I Zuo Youxian was also born in the poor people before, and when I heard that the people were suffering, my heart was naturally very sad! As he spoke, Zuo Youxian squeezed out a few tears from his eyes. Liu Wuzhou looked at Zuo Youxian, noncommittal on the surface, and after Zuo Youxian finished crying, Liu Wuzhou said: .

"Zuo Xiangguo! This king heard that your country is willing to give 1 million catties of salt to support our country for free, and I have thanked Zuo Xiangguo for his deep kindness and kindness on behalf of the poor people. "After speaking, Liu Wuzhou was preparing to kneel down to Zuo Youxian, and Zuo Youxian dared to accept Liu Wuzhou's kneeling!" Damn! If you do get on your knees, I'm afraid my head is going to move. Zuo Youxian thought so, and immediately went up to help Liu Wuzhou up.

"Oops! King Dingyang, what are you doing here? When you kneel like this, isn't this a torment for your subordinates? "Zuo Youxian scolded in his heart while supporting Liu Wuzhou: 'Collapse Liang, you are generous, I obviously only said 100,000 catties, but it will be ten times more in your mouth, but no, no matter how Yang, I must get the covenant back." Liu Wuzhou was originally pretending. Since Zuo Youxian is not subject to it, then Liu Wuzhou stands straight.

"King Dingyang! It is true that there are 1 million catties of salt, but the premise is that after your country and our country form a brotherly state, our country is supporting your country. Therefore, please don't change the concept of King Dingyang. Zuo Youxian replied to Liu Wuzhou:

"Humph! Oh, yes! It's a pity that I have just formed an alliance with that Li Tang, if I break the alliance and start a war against Li Tang, I am afraid that people in the world will say that I am a treacherous, how can I Liu Wuzhou gain a foothold in the world in the future? ”

"King Dingyang! Isn't this matter debatable? ”

"Hey! Don't hide it from Mr. Zuo! Now that the people's livelihood is withering, not only is there a shortage of salt, weapons, food, grass, clothing, and military salaries, but if we want to go to war, we have to buy horses from the Turks, and there are enough war horses to start a war! In addition, Li Tang and my country are both vassal states of the Turkic Khan, if it wasn't for the order of the Turkic Khan, let me Liu Wuzhou attack Li Tang in Guanzhong. I Liu Wuzhou really don't want to wade into this troubled water, so well! "Zuo Youxian heard it: 'Hmph! Song Jingang is not bad, at least he will do things after receiving money. All right! I'll work hard again and go to Mobei Wangting once. ’

"Since King Dingyang is not interested, he will take his leave." As he spoke, he was about to go outside, when Liu Wuzhou motioned to the guards to stop Zuo Youxian.

"Zuo Xiangguo, what did you say?"

"Oh! Repair a letter immediately and ask my lord Wu to send it over as soon as possible. Liu Wuzhou smiled silently:

"Zuo Xiangguo, since you're here, I'll stay for a few more days, as for the letter! The Lone King will send someone to the King of Wu. After seeing that Zuo Youxian was taken hostage by Liu Wuzhou and extorted a letter of one million catties of salt, Wu Wangfu was furious and directly tore the letter apart:

"Soul light! Liu Wuzhou, you are really a shameless robber, this is a clear robbery, come on! The guard who was waiting for Fu Gongtuo stepped forward:

"What does the king command?"

"Hurry up and 。。。。。。" Fu Gong Tuo just wanted to say to the guards: 'Go and cut off the messenger to this king, send the head to this king to Ma Yi, and give it to Liu Wuzhou, that rascal, the soul is light!' But he swallowed the words that followed. "No, Zuo Youxian is my confidant, if this king abandons Zuo Youxian and ignores it, those who follow this king will be very cold." ’

"You go and pass on the edict of King Gu, tell the pavilion of the post house, let the pavilion entertain the envoy of the king of Dingyang, and tell the household department to prepare a million catties of salt quickly, transport it to Ma Yi quickly, exchange it for Xiangguo, go quickly."

"Yes!" The guards took the order and left. Wu Wang Fu Gongtuo picked up the brush on the table again and wrote a letter,

"Someone! Quickly send an envoy to the Turkic royal court, and after seeing the Turkic Khan, he said that the king has sent an envoy to the royal court, I don't know if it has arrived, remember, take a detour, don't go to Mayi! After the one million catties of salt from Wu Wangfu were sent to Mayi, Liu Wuzhou set up a banquet to entertain Zuo Youxian, and at the banquet, Liu Wuzhou raised his wine glass:

"Zuo Xiangguo! These days, this king is busy with official business, and he has snubbed you, Lord Xiangguo, and this king will drink wine once and apologize to Lord Xiangguo! Zuo Youxian was jealous and reluctant in his heart, but for the sake of face, he didn't dare to have the slightest disobedience, and directly touched a glass with Liu Wuzhou. Song Jingang also saw that Zuo Youxian was unhappy. Hurriedly stood up and toasted Zuo Youxian:

"Lord Zuo, you are the savior of my Mayi Taiyuan, this glass of wine, this handsome respects you!" When Zuo Youxian saw Song Jingang, he was even more angry: "Hmph! Where the fuck did you go while labor and management were suffering! But forget it, it seems that Lao Tzu didn't suffer anything! Zuo Youxian also touched a glass with Song Jingang. Liu Wuzhou spoke again:

"Zuo Xiangguo, won't you stay a few more days? After the last time the king talked with Zuo Xiangguo, he felt that his mind was open, and he wanted to ask Zuo Xiangguo to stay for a few more days and teach him how to govern the country. When Zuo Youxian heard this, he secretly scolded in his heart: 'Hmph! Whoever wants to ask me for advice on how to govern the country is actually asking me to be a hostage here, right? Hum! What you think is beautiful! I'm still going to work hard to marry my Mobei Turkic royal court, and stay away from you. After thinking about it, Zuo Youxian smiled at Liu Wuzhou and said:

"Lord Dingyang! I'm really sorry, I'm busy with official business, and I won't tell you anything, even if I go out on this official business, my King Wu has set up time. Now that I've eaten and drunk enough, I won't bother, ah! Don't send it, don't send it! As he spoke, he ran desperately to the door with the servants, but he didn't notice the threshold, fell down, and after being helped up, he said to Liu Wuzhou and Song Jingang:

"Don't send it, don't be too polite, don't send it!" Looking at Zuo Youxian's back. Song Jingang secretly Liu Wuzhou said:

"King! Did we go too far by placing Zuo Youxian under house arrest at the beginning? Liu Wuzhou said:

"Humph! It's been done too much, what do you want! Do you still want this king to apologize to him? "Liu Wuzhou said to himself in his heart: 'Originally, I wanted to make more benefits, but who knew that the Turkic royal court sent someone here, hum! Fu Gongtuo, it seems that you are also a difficult old fox to deal with! ’
