Chapter 239: Blackmailing Tuoba Six Cultivators
After talking about business, it is natural to talk about private matters.
Wei Shuo figured out how to ask Liu Kun for Mo Han, and suddenly thought that Liu Kun's eldest son Liu Zun was still a guest in Dai County, and said in his heart: "Liu Gong, there is still a happy event I forgot to tell you." ”
"Oh? I don't know what's going on? ”
"Duke Liu's eldest son Zunben was a guest in Shengle, and when Xianbei was in civil strife, he was afraid of harming himself, so he left Shengle with Mo Han. Later, I met my Liaodong Army in Shanbei, and encountered rebellious soldiers on the way to Mo Han and the others, so I asked the two to live in Dai County temporarily. The eldest son of Duke Liu, will go south to Yanmen in the near future, and will return to Dingxiang with Duke Liu. ”
"Phew! Now I'm relieved! I was worried about Zun'er's safety before, but I didn't expect Zun'er to run to Master Wei! Thank you, Lord Wei, for your help. ”
Liu Kun was relieved to learn that his eldest son was safe and sound, although Liu Zun was only born as a concubine, and he was usually not valued by Liu Kun, but Liu Kun only had two sons in total, so he naturally didn't want anything to happen to his eldest son.
"Eh, it's just a gesture!" Wei Shuo waved his hand disappreciatively, and then he stopped talking: "This ...... This, Liu ...... Liu Gong ......"
"What? Is there anything else going on with Lord Wei? You might as well say it directly, Kun listens. ”
"Liu Gong, Mo Han, who is engaged in Xia and Bingzhou, hit it off at first sight, and wants him to come to Youzhou to help me do things. But Mo Han was originally an official of the state, and if Liu Gong didn't speak, Mo Han would not be able to make his own decisions. I had no choice but to be cheeky and ask Liu Gong for this person, hoping that Liu Gong could cut his love and let Mo Han go to Youzhou with me. ”
Seeing Wei Shuo's embarrassed look just now, Liu Kun thought it was a big deal, but he didn't want to ask Mo Han just for it. Although Liu Kun knew that Mo Han had some skills, it was difficult to reuse Mo Han due to secular concepts and pressure from local families, so Liu Kun generously agreed to Wei Shuo's request.
Then. Wei Shuo asked Mo Han to come in, and then took him by the hand and said, "Shirong, just now Liu Gong has agreed to the request of the next one, and from now on you will be my Liaodong official!" Please give Liu Gong a gift to thank Liu Gong for taking care of you over the years. ”
Mo Han listened to Wei Shuo's words and respectfully came to Liu Kun. Shen Shi saluted and said: "Thank you Liu Gong for your magnanimity, Mo Han is grateful!" ”
From Liu Kun to the civil and military staff, basically no one realizes the importance of Mo Han. In Liu Kun's shogunate, there were a large number of children of the family, and they had a natural hostile attitude towards Mo Han, who was born as a merchant. If it weren't for Mo Han's previous usefulness in seeking assistance from Tuoba Yilu, it is estimated that Mo Han would not even be qualified to enter Liu Kun's shogunate.
Now, with the outbreak of civil strife in the Tuoba tribe, Youzhou has entered the northern part of the province and Dai County, and the Tuoba tribe has lost its original role. As a result, Mo Han's status is not as good as in the past, even if Wei Shuo did not ask Liu Kun for Mo Han today. In the future, Mo Han's talent in the state will not be given any opportunity to display.
Even Liu Kun and others felt that letting Mo Han join Youzhou would have a huge role in promoting the connection between Youzhou, so Liu Kun looked at Mo Han and encouraged: "In the past, Bingzhou was surrounded by enemies, and the reason why it could exist between Hu and Qian was because of Tuoba Lu's help. Today's Youzhou is like the Tuoba tribe in the past, and you go to Youzhou to assist Lord Wei, which is related to whether the Youzhou Alliance can unite and defend the state in the future. Destroy the aliens and recover the Jin Kingdom! ”
……
Jin Sikong, the governor of Youji, and the military, holding the festival. Liu Kun, the assassin of Bingzhou, met with the Pingzhou assassin and the Pingbei general Wei Shuo at Yanmen Pass, rebuilt the Youhe Alliance, and Liu Kun served as the leader of the alliance.
When the news came out, Hu Lu was shocked!
The news was like wings, and it quickly reached the ears of the Tuoba Six Cultivators in Shengle City.
Tuoba Liuxiu sat in the big tent with a gloomy face. The alliance was a terrible thing for him, and it couldn't be worse. Originally, he also wanted to threaten Liu Kun with the matter of aiding and annexing the state, so that he could play Chang'an, and show him as the acting king and Tuoba Da Danyu! But now that the alliance is formed, it is natural that he will no longer be threatened by him.
If he can't be canonized by the Jin family, what will Tuoba Liuxiu use to occupy the righteous name. In the future, once Tuoba Pugen played the banner of revenge for Tuoba Yilu. He will be politically passive across the board. At that time, those within the tribe who sympathized with Tuoba Yilu and Tuoba Biyan were likely to defect.
After thinking about it repeatedly, Tuoba Liuxiu decided to secretly go to Yanmen Pass to seek an alliance with Youhe.
When Tuoba Liuxiu rushed to Yanmen Pass, it attracted the attention of Liu Kun and Wei Shuo.
I heard that Tuoba Liuxiu intended to re-establish an alliance with Youhe, when recovering Jinyang, Liu Kun had fought side by side with Tuoba Liuxiu, and had some friendship with the other party.
Only Wei Shuo had a faint disdain at the corner of his mouth, and asked unhurriedly: "I heard that in order to ask the Tuoba tribe for help, Liu Gong gave all the Daijun and the north of Yanmen Pass to the Tuoba tribe as a thank you gift. Now the Right Xian King wants to use the power of Liu Gong to compete for the position of Da Shan Yu, but he doesn't know what Da Shan Yu plans to reward us after the matter is completed? ”
"Huh?" In the face of Wei Shuo's questioning, the unprepared Tuoba Six Cultivators were speechless and didn't know how to react.
Even Liu Kun didn't expect Wei Shuo to ask for benefits in front of Tuoba Liuxiu in front of everyone, seeing Tuoba Liuxiu at a loss, and then remembering the scene when the two had fought side by side, he was soft-hearted for a while, and wanted to say something good to help him, but he didn't think that he had time to speak, but he was stopped by Wen Qiao beside him.
I saw Wen Qiao gently shaking his head at Liu Kun and signaling Liu Kun not to intervene. Although Liu Kun didn't quite understand why Wen Qiao did this, out of trust in Wen Qiao, Liu Kun had no choice but to force his desire to come out.
Seeing that Tuoba Liuxiu was silent, Wei Shuo couldn't help but sneer: "What? Does the Right Virtuous King think that after a few empty words, I will have to agree to an alliance with you as if I had to go on a pole? ”
"Let's tell you the truth, if you want to let Duke Liu re-align with your ministry, unless you come up with a benefit that you can't refuse, you can only express your proposal, hehe!"
Listening to Wei Shuo's naked request for benefits, Tuoba Liuxiu felt extremely angry. In the past, if Liu Kun dared to speak to the Tuoba tribe in this tone, he didn't need the Huns to send troops, and his Tuoba tribe would immediately destroy Liu Kun. But now in the face of Wei Shuo's unscrupulous ridicule, Tuoba Liuxiu could only remain silent.
Tuoba Liuxiu really wanted to leave, but he was worried that he would fall to Tuoba Pugen, which would be a disaster for Tuoba Liuxiu.
"If Lord Wei has any requirements, you may as well say it directly, as long as this order is within the scope of your ability, you will definitely be satisfied!"
"Hahaha, King Youxian is really refreshing! In order to show the sincerity of King Youxian, please send 6,000 war horses to Yanmen first, and then we will talk about the alliance. ”
"What?! Six thousand horses?! Sincerity?! ”
Tuoba Liuxiu was almost so angry by Wei Shuo that he turned his back on him, six thousand war horses is not a small number. Even for the powerful Tuoba tribe, it is almost half of the annual pasture yield. The most infuriating thing is that this is just to obtain the qualification for the Tuoba tribe to negotiate, and whether or not the alliance can be formed in the end depends on the next negotiations.
"What? King Youxian thinks the price is a bit high? It's okay, you can leave Yanmen Pass now, when I don't say anything. However, I have to remind Youxian King that maybe someone is willing to accept this price. ”
Hearing this, Tuoba Liuxiu glared angrily at Wei Shuo, and he tried to stand a few times and wanted to leave the table, but in the end he didn't make up his mind. He was very afraid of Youhe and fell to Tuoba Pugen, that Tuoba Pugen had commanded the middle of Tuoba for many years, and the internal iron plate was one, and his strength was not much weaker than him, if he was supported by Youhe, then how could his big single position be stable?
"Good! Isn't it just 6,000 horses? I'll give! If you have any other conditions, you might as well say them all! ”
"King Youxian is really refreshing, and I will thank King Youxian for the gift of Gong Liu! Liu Gong, after the war horse is delivered in the future, you and I will divide it equally. ”
Seeing Wei Shuo bargaining with the Hu people like a businessman, many children of the Bingzhou family showed a trace of disdain for him. Only Han Shou, Lu Chang, Wen Qiao, and Mo Han knew Wei Shuo's hard work, and he was tired, so he must seize every opportunity to expand his strength. (To be continued.) )
