Chapter 185: The First Emperor's Face, What Is That?
In the past, although Pyeongchang was a military city in the south of the Great Jin Dynasty, it was not a historical city after all, let alone a place of economic prosperity.
So on weekdays, although there are tourists passing by here, they can barely say that they are still a little angry, and it is far from prosperous to say that they are prosperous. However, since the first emperor's southern tour, Pyeongchang suddenly became lively. I don't know how many big families have led the team, and I don't know how many people in the rivers and lakes are lurking in secret.
Of course, after the Pegasus Ranch, today's people in the rivers and lakes are afraid of the First Emperor like a tiger. Although a large number of people came this time, most of them just came to see the excitement. If you want to let them mix in it, most people don't have that guts.
In addition, there are also secret agents from various countries.
After all, if the Great Jin Dynasty fell into civil strife because of this, it would be a great joy for the major vassal states in the world to set off fireworks and firecrackers to celebrate.
Pyeongchang, Wang's family.
Although the Wang family's clan is not in Pyeongchang City, it also has a rather luxurious and huge garden here. This gathering of the big families was led by the Cao and Wang families, so after some of the big families came to Pyeongchang, most of them were placed in the guest rooms of the Wang family.
As Mo Chen entered the Pyeongchang realm, the Wang family's mansion became more and more lively.
In the living room, more than a dozen people gathered.
Wang Shangwen, the head of the Wang family, took a breath of dark blue wide-sleeved robes, and sat at the top with a solemn face. The two sides below are full of people, the youngest of whom are in their thirties, all dressed gorgeously, and their momentum is extraordinary.
"The First Emperor has entered the Pyeongchang Territory, and it is expected to arrive in Pyeongchang City by noon at the latest." A middle-aged man with an elegant face and a white robe said indifferently.
"The details have been arranged, and there will be no mistakes then. However, the First Emperor should have heard the movement in Pyeongchang, but he didn't even say anything, which was really unsettling. An old man with a white beard frowned, his face revealing uneasiness and worry.
The others did not speak, but most of them frowned, their faces were heavy, and their mood was obviously a little low. The more silent Mo Chen was, the more angry he was in his heart, and the stronger the offensive he and the others would face in the future.
"Xiao Lao can rest assured, now half of the family is gathered in Pyeongchang, and it is most normal for the First Emperor to have no movement. If he made a rash move, it would seem a little abnormal. Even if the First Emperor wanted to make a move, he would not recklessly kill, otherwise the world would be in chaos.
However, we still have to be careful, if the First Emperor makes a move, he will definitely choose to divide our alliance or win over those small families. Wang Shangwen looked indifferent and said slowly.
The others bowed their heads after hearing this, and their expressions were relatively relaxed.
In their minds, in the face of a huge alliance, unless the First Emperor wanted to die together, he would definitely not use violent means in the first place. And divisiveness, decomposing the strength of the alliance, is the best choice of the First Emperor, and it is also the only choice.
"Those small families are indeed an unstable factor, but it is not so easy for the First Emperor to bypass us and win them over. They are not fools, and they understand that since they have come to Pyeongchang, they are also on the same front as us. Even if the First Emperor wanted to win them over, they still had to worry about whether they would be settled by the First Emperor. Xiao Lao stroked his beard and smiled.
When the others heard this, they burst out laughing.
The First Emperor was too prestigious, even if he gave some guarantees to those small families, how could they dare to believe it, and how could they dare to plot with it?
"It's better to be careful in everything, Duke Cao is about to arrive in Pyeongchang, and Ben Hou has to deal with the matter of welcoming the First Emperor. You have sent people to keep an eye on those small families, and you must not let them have too deep contact with the First Emperor. Wang Shangwen said that in the back, his expression was cold and terrifying, and his voice was a little more fierce.
"Whoa." The faces of the crowd were solemn and they answered.
Although this battle is not a sword fight, it is more dangerous than the battlefield, and the slightest carelessness will be the destruction of the whole clan, so no one dares to be careless. If there are really people who don't know each other, they don't mind letting those little families see what it means to be a traitor.
Just when the great family headed by the Cao Wang family was discussing countermeasures, another place in Pyeongchang City was also in full swing.
The huge courtyard is full of people, and the spacious square of the outer courtyard is filled with hundreds of carriages of all kinds, which is like a grand carriage exhibition. In the garden of the inner courtyard, there were more than 100 people in a circle.
"Haha, I haven't seen you for a long time, Brother Fang's treasure knife is not old."
"Brother Liu praised, praised."
"Who am I saying, it turns out that you are a fool of Liu Er. Why, you old boy dare to get involved in this matter, so you are not afraid of losing everything. ”
"Brother Xiang, we have been friends for decades, so we can't save some face for my brother. Besides, this event is not something that my brother can not participate in if he wants to. Liu Nuo shook his head with a helpless face.
His voice fell, and the neighborhood couldn't help but be silent. Everyone was silent, and their faces were a little delicate.
This time, it is the Cao Wang family that responds to each other, and the families in the world have echoed, but in fact, they know that they are suffering. Those big families who control the government have sent soldiers and horses masters to invite them, which small family dares to be indifferent?
If it weren't for the huge momentum this time, nearly half of the world's families would have come, and some small families would have already dispersed. However, as more and more people came, the gathering of forces became bigger and bigger, and some small families who were originally forced to come no longer had resentment, but were a little more strange.
If they were a little nervous at first, now they have the confidence to challenge the First Emperor.
"Have you heard, the First Emperor's Luan arrived ten miles away from Pingchang City at noon, and the guard of honor to welcome the First Emperor has been arranged." The crowd was silent for a moment, and someone spoke to break the dead silence.
"Hmm, why haven't we heard about it?"
"It's normal that you haven't heard of it, but if it weren't for my cousin being from the Wang family, I wouldn't know about it. I'm afraid you can't imagine who they arranged to greet the First Emperor. The man's face was full of mystery, but he deliberately hung their appetite and did not say anything. Everyone became more and more curious, and their eyes were full of gossip, eager to tear the man's mouth open.
They understood that when the First Emperor came to Pyeongchang City, the war between the family and the imperial family had begun, and welcoming the First Emperor was the prelude to this war!
If this battle is won, the Saga Alliance will inevitably gain momentum. If this battle is broken, it will be difficult to move forward, and it may even be destroyed by the First Emperor. How can everyone not be curious about how those great families make moves.
After all, this is about the attitude of the Great Family towards this matter and the determination to confront the First Emperor.
The most important question is that if everyone knows how they start, they can also figure out the next arrangements of the first and second great families, and strive to seek the greatest interests for their own families. One by one, they came to the alliance at the risk of raiding their families and exterminating their clans, and naturally they would not be stupid enough to simply make a strong stand for the great family.
Dozens of miles away from Pyeongchang City, Mo Chen's Luan was driving.
"Bang!"
The purple girl threw the letterhead in her hand on the low case, her face was extremely ugly, her charming eyes were full of terrible murderous intent, and she hated: "Bastards, they only sent a few Pyeongchang city guards to greet the holy driver, they can't help but want to rebel!" ”
Wan Wan's face was stunned, a little incredulous.
Those families are crazy, even if they want to confront the First Emperor, they won't tear their faces at the beginning. Not to mention how many families there are in Pyeongchang City, at least there is a prince and several marquis, but these people only sent a small city guard to greet them.
What does this mean, this is Chiguoguo's slap in the face, telling the world that your first emperor is not worthy of us to greet him!
If this matter spreads, what face does Mo Chen have to govern the Great Jin, and what face does he have to reign in the world. After all, even the courtiers and princes don't give you face, so why should you govern them?
