254 The Beginning of the Exotic Tang Dynasty (12)
For a few days, he concealed the hands of the people planted by Baicao Garden, and Guangzhi secretly consulted with his cronies, and sometimes invited Zu Nuo to be present to clarify his views on behalf of the ancestral family. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Everyone was already in a state of panic, and each had his own opinion.
Those who are loyal to their ancestral family do not agree to surrender without a fight, and at least need to bargain with Yun Fan.
There are those who are afraid of the Hundred Herb Garden, and they are worried that the dragon will incur the revenge of the Hundred Herb Garden, and they hope to wait until the two sides will fight each other before making a decision.
Those who are afraid of the military strength of the Dragon Kingdom advocate accepting Yun Fan's arrangement, anyway, it is the will of King Qian, brought by the prince.
No matter what kind of proposition, no one has the intention of fighting to the death for the ancestral family. Guangzhi was as sad as death, scattered his subordinates, and returned to the backyard gloomily.
In the back hall, Guang's wife and children were waiting, and Guangyuan was impressively listed. This was ordered by Hiroyuki when he went to court this morning.
When Guangyuan returned from the Dragon Kingdom, he thought that his meritorious service was outstanding and he would be praised. Who knew that Yue Dong didn't want to see him first, detained Zhang Lan, and then sent them out of the country as quickly as possible, as if to say that you disaster stars, hurry up and stay away from me.
Then in the middle of the road, he met the envoy who came from Wuzhou to greet them, and the envoy was full of praise for their gains, but he never mentioned the word reward, and almost escorted the people back to Wuzhou.
As for Wuzhou, it was neither the King of Qian, nor the person in charge of Baicao Garden who received them, but Fan Bo. Fan Bo praised a few words, and let them arrange for them to rest. Guangyuan found that he had lost his freedom, not only could he not see Zu Cheng and Zhang Xun, but he didn't even have the right to go out. If it weren't for my father's personal letter asking for it, I still don't know where I am under house arrest. So far, there is still no news of Zu Cheng and Zhang Xun.
Guangyuan was indignant and asked his father for advice.
Hiroshi sneered: "You are clever and have gone too far. Before leaving, how do I explain it? It's just for you to win over Guizhou officials and seek benefits for the Guizhou State in front of Yun Fan.
It's good for you to directly pry into the foundation of the Dragon Kingdom and violate Yun Fan's bottom line. The things that were stolen back, whether it was Qianguo or Baicao Garden, were indeed like treasures. But no one wants to take the consequences.
Yun Fan was furious, and the two countries fought. If you win, you may be the heroes of the Qianguo, and if you lose, you will be the scapegoats and the bargaining chips handed over to Yun Fan to sue for peace. Got it? ”
Today, the worst outcome has appeared, there is no time to even seek peace, Yun Fan wants to directly destroy the Kingdom of Qian.
The Guang family, their children and relatives, crowded a house full of sorrow. Guangyuan's second son and youngest daughter were only three or four years old, and they didn't understand the adult's sorrow, so they jumped up and took Guangzhi's hand, "Grandpa, grandpa, why are there so many firewood and grass piled up outside the hall?" ”
Guangzhi raised his head and didn't answer, and old tears almost welled up in his eyes.
He could restrain it, but Guang's wife couldn't restrain herself, and sobbed, "Master, you have to apologize for your sins, but Meng Tong is ignorant, what kind of crime is there, can't you leave a little incense?" ”
Guangyuan fell to his knees and grabbed the ground with his head, but he was speechless. Guangyuan's wife, Zu Hong, jumped up and hugged the two children, crying. Suddenly, the room was filled with the sound of crying.
Guangzhi sighed: "If one of me goes, they are just other people's fish and meat, so what's the benefit of staying?" With a ruthless heart, he shouted outward, "Ignition!" ”
In a moment, the beep of burning firewood and grass sounded on all sides.
Suddenly, a cry of shattering despair and a murmur outside, "Ignorance! If you set your family on fire, will you be able to save the country? Without the Dragon Kingdom, Baicao Garden would also subvert the ancestral family, and now it is just a change of master. Tang Wang once said that how much ability you have, how much power you can covet. The ancestral strength is weak, and it is the ancestor to be able to retain the prince, and the Tang king is benevolent. Zu Li can still accept it safely, why is it difficult to solve your broad heart knot? This is not your family. Moreover, it is easy for you to die, have you ever thought about Guangwei, who has become the concubine of the Tang Dynasty? If you die, Guangwei will complain, King Tang is angry, and no one has good fruit to eat. If you don't die, you can still rely on your identity to seek some benefits for your loyal ancestors. If you are confused, there are few in the world. ”
Hearing this, Guangzhi sat on the ground, stunned. A large family looked at Hiroyuki with anticipation.
Outside, as if a heavy rain was approaching, Liu Yong took the water from the pond on one side and poured out the flames. He can't let Guangzhi die like this, otherwise Yun Fan will complain.
As soon as the words fell, another sudden shout sounded, "Report! Report! The Pu Garden Lord is urgent. Baicao Garden ordered the disciples to break into the inner courtyard in a hurry, ignoring the guards who guarded them, and directly smashed open the door of the inner hall, shouting: "Guangzhi takes the order!" ”
Guangzhidu is already a person who is ready to commit suicide, where will he still respect the Baicao Garden, sitting on the ground and looking at the arrogant herald with cold eyes, "Take it to me." ”
The man in Baicao Garden was furious, but he suppressed it in an instant, and threw the letter in his hand to Guangzhi, "You'd better act according to the order quickly, otherwise you will annoy the owner of the garden, oh, annoy the son of heaven, and you can't afford to spoil the owner of the garden." ”
Hiroyuki opened his eyes and exclaimed, "What? Pu Xing has descended! ”
A large family was dumbfounded, "It's falling, who is falling?" ”
Guangzhi casually threw the so-called immortal decree to Guangyuan, got up and asked, "Is this true?" Pu Xing isn't crazy, is he? ”
The man was furious, "Bold, is your name the owner of the garden?" ”
Hiroshi snorted coldly, "You're bold." Pu Xing said that Yun Fan is the son of heaven and a servant of Yun Fan. What kind of thing are you, dare to be so rude to Yun Fan's father-in-law? ”
The man was taken aback, "Yun ······, the old man of the Tang King?" ”
Guangyuan, who had been aggrieved for a long time, finally raised his eyebrows and interjected: "My sister Guangwei is the concubine of King Tang, didn't Pu Xing tell you?" ”
The man was shocked, shook himself to the ground, and said with great humility, "The villain has seen the prince." The decree of the owner of the garden is true, and there is no half-falseness. ”
"Why?" Hiroyuki really didn't understand why Kamagata's change was so sudden.
The man replied cautiously: "The villain doesn't dare to talk nonsense, you old man will ask King Tang when he arrives." ”
"Tang Wang?" From the weakness of the heart to the sudden change of the situation, Guangzhi instantly felt that there was still a chance, "I won't descend him, see what he dares to do to me?" ”
The Guang family smiled, with Guang Wei here, I thought that Yun Fan would not do anything to the Guang family.
The person who came was stunned, "You ······, you ······." ”
Hiroyuki said: "There is one of them that I will still do. Just you, pass on my order, quickly release the merchants of the Dragon Kingdom, return the property, apologize, make proper arrangements, and wait for the envoy of the Dragon Kingdom to contact the follow-up matters. ”
The person who came was depressed but did not dare to disobey, and hurriedly went out to give orders.
Before long, the entire Beifeng knew the news of Pu Xing's surrender, and public opinion was in an uproar. Then, the folk rumors spread rapidly, spreading farther afield.
Yun Fan inspected the Heigang Oilfield and went on the road satisfied.
With gasoline and diesel, batteries and circuits produced by Yunhui, the internal combustion engine has been put into use. From the oil field to the Li River wharf, on the newly built track, the train pulled by the diesel locomotive rumbles by. Seeing such a scene, it seems to have returned to Earth.
In the middle of the river, ironclad ships shuttle back and forth, and the waves splash. Because of the war, the refined oil was still piled up in the dock warehouse and not shipped, but the newly built big ship has been hired by merchants from all over the country to engage in commercial transportation on the Li River. Because Heigang County has now been assigned to Huo Guo, Huo Guo's commerce and trade have benefited a lot. What was once a deserted ferry port is now a thriving new city.
Yun Fan sat on Yun Fan's back, overlooking the river. The people accompanying him, except for the history of riding the cloud shadow and the Ming Feng riding the cloud spot, were all high-ranking officials of the Huo State, and Zhu Wei, the lord of the Huo State, was impressively listed.
Zhu Wei accompanied Yun Fan to point out the country and talk about the world, "King Tang, this is going to Wuzhou, I should ······ it." ”
The voice was interrupted by an urgent announcement, "Report! "Report!" Their subordinates invariably sent urgent reports.
Yun Fan and Zhu Wei glanced at each other, and they were both surprised, the two families received an emergency report at the same time, and they couldn't wait to send it to the dock, it seemed that this emergency was related to both families.
They all took it and watched, but their expressions were very different. Zhu Wei was shocked, but Yun Fan was full of doubts. The eagle letter is brief and does not contain much, all of which say that Pu Xing suddenly announced his surrender.
The official express is faster than the folk news, but for the sake of speed, only the key points are written, but the specific reasons are not explained.
The two looked up at each other again, and then each asked his men to gather specific information.
Zhu Wei was already in a weak position, and with the fall of Pu Xing, the Dragon Kingdom General was far from being able to match Huo Guo not only in terms of geography, strength, prestige, number of monks, etc. Speaking involuntarily with caution, "Congratulations to King Tang, from now on you and I are neighbors, and I hope King Tang will take care of me." ”
Yun Fan didn't notice Zhu Wei's changes, and still thought about the reason for Pu Xing's sudden change, and said to himself: "Why? ”
Zhu Wei broke out in a cold sweat, thinking that Yun Fan was talking about why he should take care of Huo Guo. Legend has it that Yun Fan's real purpose in attacking Qianguo was to open up a land passage from Heigang to Qinglong Mountain. Now there is no problem with the passage, but the black oil is on the ground in Huo Country. For the sake of black oil, will Yun Fan directly destroy Huo Guo? His mind turned sharply, and he said in a trembling heart: "King Tang, I have an idea, do you think it will work?" ”
Yun Fan was shocked, came back to his senses, and looked at Zhu Wei suspiciously, "What did you say?" ”
Zhu Wei bowed his head, "I want to dedicate Heigang County to the Tang King." ”
Yun Fan scratched his head, why is everyone so abnormal today, "For no reason, what do you mean by this?" ”
Zhu Wei said respectfully: "Heigang is not owned by me, but replaced by Huaiguo. The ability of contemptible people is limited, and it is exhausting to manage a Huo City well, and it is really impossible to manage too many areas. Moreover, black oil is of no benefit to me, but it is of great use to the king of Tang. Dedicating Heigang to the Tang King can be said to complement each other. ”
Yun Fan looked at the humble Zhu Wei scrutinically, naturally it was impossible to believe the reason he gave, "Are you afraid?" Is it because of Pu Xing's surrender? ”
Zhu Wei was so frightened that he almost fell off the horse, and said in a panic: "No, no, I'm not afraid." Tang Wang's benevolence and righteousness cover the sky, how can I be afraid. I mean, the black gang is for you, isn't it more convenient for you to take the black oil? ”
Yun Fan finally understood, "Are you worried that I will capture Heigang next?" Hehe, where do you want to go. Approached Zhu Wei and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, relax, am I such an unreasonable person?" But I'm very impressed by your proposal. In this way, I won't ask you for nothing, you can make a request, spears, cannons, chariot dolls, or elevated roads, etc., you can buy it, even if I buy it, I will definitely not let you suffer. How about you go back and discuss? ”
"Okay, okay." Zhu Wei confessed and left, the border changed drastically, and he needed to go back immediately to discuss countermeasures with a group of important ministers.
