Chapter Seventy-Three: The Three States Join the Alliance, and Knock on the Bamboo Pole
The lord of Huangzhou, Bei Minghao, refused to join the Dangkou Alliance proposed by the King of Eastern Qin, but the news of the Thief Extermination Alliance he formed spread far and wide, and Dongzhou was in an uproar.
As the person in charge, Bei Minghao didn't seem to know anything about this matter, and still went his own way, practiced martial arts on time every day, and still ate well and slept warmly.
"Zi Zhen, do you have some news about the alliance? I heard that the eldest grandson Wuji returned to the embassy that day and immediately left to return to Qinzhou, that face, blue and purple, it was like a dead father, hahaha, happy, really happy! ”
Bei Minghao slowly walked and went shopping in the city, and Jia Xu, Jing Xiang and Baili Xi and others followed behind, following suit, at this moment Bei Minghao was in a comfortable mood, sweeping away the haze since the Taiping Uprising.
"Yes, my lord, you openly rejected the invitation of the King of Eastern Qin on the top of the main hall, and formed the Thief Extermination Alliance by yourself, which has dealt a big blow to the prestige of the King of Eastern Qin, and even the prestige of the Dangkou Alliance, can this not make the eldest grandson Wuji annoyed? Hehe! ”
Jia Xu also felt quite happy, before the king of Eastern Qin, he formed the Five Continents Alliance, and besieged Huangzhou together, although in the end it was to steal chickens and rice, and he lost his wife and soldiers, but after all, it was a very unpleasant thing, and Huangzhou was particularly resentful of this matter, and who would not feel happy if he had this opportunity.
"Oh, by the way, Wenhe, Qianzhou, Sizhou and Yuzhou and other three states, how have you discussed the matter of compensation? This time, you have to make a good stroke, don't let these grandsons have a good time, since they can change their orders day and night, and they don't believe in their words, I don't mind being a villain who falls into the well, hum! ”
Suddenly, Bei Minghao's voice changed, and he mentioned the matter of the three states to negotiate and compensate, speaking of this, everyone was angry, the three states had a conflict with Huangzhou before, and finally came to seek peace, Bei Minghao did not do much to make it difficult, and happily agreed.
Who would have thought that these grandsons would not repent, but instead changed Gali and besieged again, this uncle can bear it, but aunt can't bear it.
"Lord, I will definitely slaughter Sanzhou and make them pay the price they deserve, please rest assured that the lord will do this!" When Jia Xu heard this, he hurriedly said.
"The king, Liu Muzhi, the minister of Qianzhou outside the palace, Fan Zeng, the minister of Yuzhou, and Du Pre, the minister of Sizhou, came together to ask to see the king, and I have been waiting outside the palace for a long time..."
"Liu Muzhi? Fan Zeng? Du pre? What are they here for? Is it because of the reparations? Didn't Lone already say that the matter of negotiation and compensation would be handled by Jia Xu with full authority? When Bei Minghao heard this, he said with great confusion, and at the same time there was a trace of interest in his heart.
"Okay, go back to the palace and meet with the three envoys of the three states to see what the hell they want to do?" Unexpectedly, Bei Minghao didn't want to, and planned to go back directly and ask in person.
……
As soon as he returned to the palace, he had three men brought to him.
"The three of them are the ministers of Yu Siqian and the three states? I don't know why I came to see the lonely king today? Bei Minghao looked down at the three of them, said indifferently like water, and began to look at the attributes of the three people at the same time.
Liu Muzhi [Wen Xuangong]

At a glance, the attributes of the three of them are extremely powerful, and the three of them are all extremely brilliant strategists, which can be seen from the data alone, especially the sub-father Fan Zeng, who turned out to be a god-level strategist, which is not beyond Bei Minghao's expectations.
At this time, when the three of them heard this, they looked at each other, and saw one person in the center step forward and bow.
"In Xia Liu Muzhi, to meet the king, I came here this time only for three things, first, that is, my King Qianzhou is willing to join the Thief Extermination Alliance, and at the same time will do his best to support the king to assume the position of the leader of the alliance; The second thing is that in the next personal private affairs, there is a younger brother named Liu Daogui, who was captured by Bai Qi, a general under the king some time ago, and hopes that the king will hand him over to me, of course, he is willing to pay a certain price; As for the third matter, it is about the peace and compensation between Qianzhou and Huangzhou, and my king has already agreed to the conditions for compensation..."
"Oh, since the King of Qianzhou is willing to join the Thieves Extermination Alliance, the Lone King welcomes it with both hands, but if I knew that Qian Sun was stabbing people in the back, then the Lone King would definitely do his best to be a member of Huangzhou and set foot in Qianzhou! The Lone King does what he says! ”
Speaking of this, Bei Minghao suddenly stood up, and said with a sinister face, a strong murderous aura gushed out from his body, and the breath of the few people below was suddenly stunned, his face was pale, and his mouth trembled and looked at Bei Minghao, his eyes were full of horror and fear.
"The king, I am willing to swear with my net worth, this time my lord will abide by the covenant and never do anything harmful to the interests of the allies, please rest assured..."Liu Muzhi said very seriously.
"Hehe, he didn't dare to do this, as for the third article, since Qian Sun is willing to pay the price, then I am not a person who cares quietly, I won't hold on to his pigtails, but as for letting go of your brother, it's a little difficult, your brother Liu Daogui, I also know a little, everywhere I killed many athletes in Huangzhou, causing many old people to lose their children, Mrs. to lose their husbands, and children to lose their fathers, so you have to compensate these people in full..."
Speaking of Liu Daogui's matter, Bei Minghao showed an extremely embarrassed expression, it seemed that this matter was very difficult to do, and sure enough, when Liu Mu heard it, he fell into contemplation and began to sympathize with heaven and man.
"The king, I am willing to pay a thousand taels of gold..."
"Our army suffered heavy losses, and the soldiers were full of righteous indignation, and this move was not enough to eliminate the indignation of the soldiers..."
"I'm willing to pay two thousand taels of gold..."
"Those dead wives are young..."
"Three thousand taels of gold!"
"There is no one to take care of the elderly..."
"Five thousand taels of gold!"
"Okay, I will take care of the old and young, and the soldiers will be pacified by me, and if you bring gold, you can bring Liu Daogui back..."
As soon as it came to five thousand taels of gold, Bei Minghao immediately changed his words, and said directly and righteously, it looks really powerful, of course, he is talking about his face.
At this moment, even Liu Muzhi, a person who is usually as indifferent as water, wants to burst into fire in his eyes at this moment, and everyone else looks at Bei Minghao blankly.
Jing Xiang and the others all looked at Bei Minghao in great surprise and admiration, Bei Minghao was too strong, and he taught them a deep lesson.
"It turns out that it can be like this...", Jia Xu sighed and said, and after hearing this, the others rolled their eyes, and they admired Bei Minghao's toughness.
"Okay, the king, please be patient, after you go back, you will definitely let someone come with gold to exchange for my brother Liu Daogui..."
"Since Mr. Liu is gone, why did the two of you come?" Bei Minghao chuckled and watched Liu Muzhi leave, looking at the other two, his eyes were particularly strange, as if he had seen a peerless treasure.
In fact, I don't blame Bei Minghao, now that more and more displaced people have entered Huangzhou, Bei Minghao must open the hidden granary, that is, the money exchange out of his own pocket, where does the money come from? Of course, it is taken from the people and used for the people, so these princes must be extorted before they can be gathered.
As the saying goes, there is a way to make money, and the wealth will roll in, so you don't have to be so painful all the time.
"Returning to the king, the two of us have asked our lords, and the compensation conditions proposed by the king, we and our lords accept them unconditionally, and at the same time, we are also willing to join the alliance of thieves and be the head of the king..."
"Hey, why did these three old foxes agree so happily? Could it be that my request is too small? Bei Minghao said in a puzzled "whisper".
Jing Xiang, who was standing not far from Bei Minghan, heard Bei Minghao's doubts, and suddenly burst into tears, is this still called small? 10,000 taels of gold, 10,000 catties of iron, 10,000 catties of cold iron, 100,000 catties of black iron, and 1,000 war horses, these are worth four million silver, and they are still less?
"Okay, since that's the case, then I won't pursue the matter of your lord violating my border for no reason, as long as I don't come to tease my beard in the future, I will turn a blind eye to some things, hahaha!"
At this moment, Bei Minghao was extremely happy, there was nothing more painful than today, and after speaking, he issued an eviction order and let Fan Zeng and the others leave.
Seeing the two leave, Jing Xiang stepped forward and said, "Lord, the minister has something unclear, can you ask the lord for advice?" ”
"Oh, what's wrong with Zizhen? But it doesn't hurt to say it! When Bei Minghao heard this, he said with a little interest.
"My lord, do you want to know that the establishment of the Thief Extermination Alliance was planned by the king in advance? Or did you listen to the words of the eldest grandson Wuji and have a whim? Jing Xiang looked at Bei Minghao and asked very seriously.
"Baili, Wenhe, what do you think?" Bei Minghao didn't answer, but asked Jia Xu and Baili Xi.
"My lord, the minister thinks that the king came up with a whim and thought of it temporarily!" Baili Xi thought for a moment and said.
"Huh, this, it's not good to judge!" Jia Xu, as a poisoner and an old fox, cleverly avoided the past.
"Zizhen, what do you think?" Bei Minghao smiled and said nothing, and asked Jingxiang again.
"Lord, the minister thought that the lord should have had a manuscript before, not something that suddenly came to mind in the main hall? Lord, is what the minister said right? Jing Xiang said with a light smile.
"Hehe, none of this is important, what matters is what benefits this alliance can bring to Huangzhou? What height will I take Huangzhou..."
Bei Minghao didn't answer, and went back to the study directly, and Bei Minghao's voice came from afar.
When the three of them heard this, they all looked thoughtful...
