Chapter 453: Lu Zhaogong returned with a full load
Jin Zhaogong is a dying man, so! Some of the words are true. Outcome! Lu Zhaogong believed in him even more.
Seeing that Lu Zhaogong was so real, Jin Zhaogong also met some of his requirements. Before leaving, he gave him jade and other treasures. Moreover! Send palace guards to escort him all the way to the Yellow River. Moreover! also sent someone to escort him to the Lu Palace.
Originally! Ji Pingzi and the others were dissatisfied when they saw that Lu Zhaogong insisted on going to the Jin Kingdom to find a backer. They discussed killing him in the form of robbers when he left the Jin Kingdom and arrived at the border of the Lu Kingdom.
Outcome! Very disappointed!
After the Jin State sent troops to escort Lu Zhaogong to the Yellow River, they sent special personnel to escort him back to the Lu Palace. Seeing that it was a special combat member of the Jin Kingdom, none of the people who pretended to be robbers and assassinated did not dare to do anything. Because! They didn't dare to kill the people of the Jin Kingdom.
No one dared to offend the Jin Kingdom, not even the ordinary people of the Jin Kingdom.
Because! The army of the Jin Kingdom just can't find a reason to destroy your country.
If the men of your country kill our people, we will settle accounts with your king, and if we cannot hand them over, it will be the order of your king. All right! Let's go to war!
Don't dare to go to war with a big country casually, and starting a war with a small country is like pulling a gun out of your crotch, just come casually.
Once the army is overwhelmed, if you don't dare to fight, you will have to spend money to eliminate the disaster.
If you lose money, you will be prevented from disaster.
Just like the Qing Dynasty back then, foreign enemies can abuse you as much as they want, lose money or cut land, whatever.
So! The people sent by Ji Pingzi and the others did not dare to kill Lu Zhaogong and the escorts of the Jin Kingdom.
Lu Zhaogong was in a great disaster, and he was a little arrogant when he returned to Lu Palace.
Because! He thought he had found a backer.
And also! The formation when he came back was also very awesome, which could give Ji Pingzi and others a deterrent effect.
With the backer of the Jin Kingdom, Lu Zhaogong after returning had a much tougher attitude when he presided over the state affairs. There are many things that he approved without the consent of Ji Pingzi and others. Other than that! Ignoring the opposition of Ji Pingzi and others, he transferred his own army to the national army.
The result of this is! His private army eats the food of the state and is no longer an army that he feeds himself. Other than that! In order to replenish the number of private troops, he was able to openly expand the army.
In fact! All this is nothing more than an expansion of the number of its own army.
In this troubled world, you are the master with an army in your hand.
With enough troops, you can compete with the three major families such as Ji Pingzi.
Lu Zhaogong's actions naturally angered Ji Pingzi and the others even more. But they didn't have Lu Zhaogong's way. On the surface! Everything Lu Zhaogong did was because of the backer of the Jin Kingdom.
Knowing that Lu Zhaogong was a little excessive, Fang Jishi became even more anxious.
Because he knows! Jin Zhaogong's backer is unreliable. If you expect Jin Zhaogong to "restore the country" for you, you may be disappointed immediately. As soon as Jin Zhaogong dies, not only will he not be able to protect you, but he will not be able to protect himself, and the Jin Kingdom may be in chaos for a while.
After being persuaded several times, Lu Zhaogong just didn't listen. There was no way, Fang Jishi had to break everyone up, and said in a low voice: "Do you know why Duke Jin treats you like this? ”
"This?"
"He's not looking at my face! No! Don't be mistaken! ”
"That?" Lu Zhaogong asked: "Isn't it for the sake of us being brothers?" Isn't it? ”
Fang Jishi shook his head and said, "No! ”
"That?" Lu Zhaogong asked puzzledly, "Why is this?" ”
"Because! Jin Gong has a terminal illness! ”
"Terminally ill?"
"Terminally ill!"
"How is that possible?"
"It's true! I didn't lie to you, he said it to me personally! ……”
"That? That? That? Then why did he treat me so well? He? I'm the king of a small country, and I'm a puppet king, me? Why is he? ……”
"If he treats you like this, it is very likely that you are a person, and similar to him, the two of you are very close. And one more! A man is about to die, and his words are good! He understands you deeply, so he is willing to do his best and help as much as he can. So! ……”
"Oh?" Lu Zhaogong collapsed, supporting his body with one hand, and looked at Fang Jishi helplessly.
"In order for his power to be smoothly transferred, the Duke of Jin made friends with the surrounding princes and states! You didn't inquire about it? He has shown goodwill to the countries around him, not just to us. He just wanted that after his death, the surrounding countries would not make things difficult for the Jin Kingdom, and for his sake, not to embarrass his son, the newly enthroned King of the Jin Kingdom......"
With Lu Zhaogong's cleverness, Fang Jishi said that he could naturally understand. Even if Fang Jishi didn't explain, he could understand it after learning the reason.
"In that case! I? I? After thinking for a moment, Lu Zhaogong said: "I took the opportunity to expand the number of troops, and I was right!" No matter what happens in the future, when my army is numerous, my confidence will be hardened......"
"But they?"
"I'm not afraid! I know what to do next! ”
"This is the secret of the Jin Kingdom! Don't reveal it! Otherwise! You and I will pit Jin Gong! Fang Jishi reminded.
"I know this! Duke Jin treats me like a brother, where can I pit him? Furthermore! Being close to the Jin Kingdom will only be good for me, not bad! So! I'm not going to reveal it! I know how to do it! Thank you! Great God! Brothers! Thank you! ”
Lu Zhaogong said, sat up straight, and his demeanor returned to natural.
After so many years of puppet career, Lu Zhaogong has been able to face any emergencies calmly.
After that, Lu Zhaogong was still as strong on the surface. But! In some things, he was still weak and compromised with Ji Pingzi and others.
On the whole, Lu Zhaogong is still relatively wise.
When it's time for the fox to fake the tiger, it is still necessary to fake the tiger. With the help of Jin Guo to suppress Ji Pingzi and others, it can also receive a certain effect.
After learning what happened, Lu Zhaogong remembered: Fang Jishi did not interfere in the matter between him and the Jin Kingdom. Only then did he understand why Fang Jishi didn't intervene, didn't dissuade him, and didn't remind him. It was only when he continued to move down the wrong path that he told the truth of the matter.
Visible! The Great God Fang Jishi still believed in him, and believed that he would not tell the physical condition of Jin Gong.
Seeing that Lu Zhaogong had reined in a lot, Fang Jishi was relieved. This Lu Gong is not a faint monarch, but he still has some brains.
In order to maintain a distance from Lu Zhaogong and not offend Ji Pingzi and others, Fang Jishi basically moved out of the Lu Palace and lived in the village of Confucius's family. On the surface! He indulged in the love of children. In fact, he is closely following the movements of the Lu State.
Ji Pingzi and the others saw that the distance between Fang Jishi and Lu Zhaogong was a little estranged, and they often sent people to send gifts to show their goodwill.
