Chapter 326
Hearing the words, Dong Sheng looked for the sound, and saw that the person who spoke was a young man who came with Shao Fang, in his twenties, with fair skin, sword eyebrows, a high nose, and a handsome appearance, even if he was dressed in ordinary people's clothes, he still showed a unique temperament, just now he was surprised about the identity of this young man, but he was embarrassed to ask, and now he just found the conversation and asked: "This is ......?"
Tang Yin just arched his hand slightly, and said, "In the Tianyuan County of the Lower Wind Country, Tang Yin!"
"Huh?" Dong Sheng, who was so calm and old, couldn't help but change his face after listening to Tang Yin's self-report, his eyes were shocked, and he said suspiciously: "You ...... You are the commander of the Tianyuan Army, Tang Yin?"
"It's down there!" Tang Yin said with a smile as he put his hands behind his back.
After receiving Tang Yin's confirmation, Dong Sheng felt that it was incredible, Tang Yin was not in the Wind Country, how could he be in the Mo Country? Why was he with His Royal Highness Shao Fang again? What was going on? Now even a shrewd person like Dong Sheng was confused, and he couldn't figure out what was going on.
Shao Fang now regarded Dong Sheng as his own, and he said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, Brother Tang and I have made a bloody alliance!" As he spoke, he told Dong Sheng about Tang Yin's intention to infiltrate the Mozambican Kingdom and the various things he had discussed with him.
After Dong Sheng heard this, it suddenly dawned on him that Tang Yin was here to win over Mozambique and join forces with him to fight against Ning. Thinking about it, he couldn't help but gasp. With such a close relationship between the two countries, Tang Yin dared to sneak into the country of Mozambique in person and go directly to Shao Fang, who was the second prince, and this courage and courage alone were far beyond comparison.
Without waiting for Dong Sheng to answer, Tang Yin stepped forward and said quietly: "Ning Guo is very ambitious, and the national strength is also very strong, once Zhong Tian is allowed to sit firmly on the throne of King Peng, it will be like the entire Wind Country being swallowed by Ning Guo, and there are eggs under the nest? ”
Dong Sheng stared at Tang Yin while silently pondering his words. What Tang Yin said was exactly what he was worried about, but he also understood that Tang Yin did not venture to come to Mozambique not to help himself, but for himself, and only by winning over and stabilizing Mozambique could the Tianyuan Army under Tang Yin defeat Zhong Tian and take the country of Feng.
Judging from the current form, the independent Wind Country is more beneficial to the Mo State than the Wind Country being annexed by the Ning State, and assisting Tang Yin's Tianyuan Army is equivalent to saving itself. Thinking of this, Dong Sheng had completely calmed down from his surprise, pondered for a moment, he smiled leisurely, and said to Tang Yin: "It turned out to be Lord Tang, disrespectful, disrespectful!"
Tang Yin also smiled politely: "Dong Xiang is polite!"
"You have made a bloody alliance with Your Highness?"
"Yes!"
"Your alliance with Your Highness is beneficial to you!" Dong Sheng said with a smile. Supporting Tang Yin is beneficial to Mozambique, and he will naturally support it, but that doesn't mean that he doesn't want to squeeze benefits from Tang Yin.
Tang Yin was an extremely smart person, and as soon as he heard Dong Sheng's words, he immediately realized that this old man had bad intentions. He smiled and said: "Your Highness's alliance with me is not only beneficial to my side, but beneficial to both sides, after all, it is much better to have my Feng Country to contain Ning Guo than your country to face Ning Guo alone, Dong Xiang, what do you say?"
Without waiting for Dong Sheng to answer, Tang Yin said again: "And in order to show sincerity and put His Royal Highness on the throne of King Mo, I have promised to give His Highness a lot of money for the purpose of winning over the ministers of the court!"
"That's not enough, isn't it?!" Dong Sheng is a competent minister, and he is not thinking about himself, but about the entire Mozambican country. He said with a smile: "Even if His Highness can't get the heavy money from Lord Tang, I have a way to make His Highness the prince until he becomes King Mo." ”
When Shao Fang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, while Tang Yin and Zong Yuan frowned secretly, muttering in their hearts that Dong Sheng was difficult.
Tang Yin smiled and asked, "Then in Dong Xiang's opinion, how can it be enough?"
Dong Sheng said: "If you can really defeat Zhong Tian, I will do my best to prevent the king from sending troops to the wind and assist Lord Tang to completely annihilate Zhong Tian's forces, in return, I hope that Lord Tang will give up the hegemony to me after winning the title of King Feng!"
Baguan is the southern gateway of the Wind Country, and its importance is almost the same as Tongmen, but there has been no war between the two countries for a long time, and Baguan is not so important. If the Baguan is occupied by Mozambique, the Wind Country will be equivalent to giving up the southern gateway to Mozambique, just like his own little tail in the hands of Mozambique, and he will be restrained by Mozambique in the future.
Tang Yin secretly clenched his fists and said: "Baguan has been the territory of my Feng Country since ancient times, Dong Xiang is so forceful to take it, I'm afraid it is not the work of his allies, right?" As he spoke, Tang Yin turned his eyes to Shao Fang, in a way, Shao Fang was much better at talking than Dong Sheng.
Shao Fang also felt that Dong Sheng was a bit too much to ask Tang Yin for Baguan at this time, from the bottom of his heart, he only cared about whether he could become the prince and whether he could become the king of Mozambique, as for Baguan, it was just a fortress, it didn't matter if it was in his own hands or not, in addition, he was also very grateful to Tang Yin. The reason why he was able to pull Dong Sheng to his side at this time was completely due to Tang Yin, if Tang Yin didn't let himself come to visit Dong Sheng in person, if Zong Yuan didn't hold him just now, he didn't know what Dong Sheng was thinking until now!
Seeing Tang Yin looking at him, he laughed dryly, and whispered to Dong Sheng: "Dong Xiang, Brother Tang and I are already allies in the bloody alliance. He didn't say much, just re-emphasized the relationship between himself and Tang Yin.
Dong Sheng sighed secretly, how can major national affairs and the interests between countries be mixed with personal feelings? However, Shao Fang was willing to speak for Tang Yin, so that Dong Sheng could see the other side of Shao Fang again, he was not a person who was repeatedly gratuitous and cold-blooded. He said in a low voice: "Your Highness can see the ambition of the Ning Kingdom, isn't he afraid that the Wind Country will become another Ning Kingdom in the future?"
Shao Fang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Dong Sheng with a frown.
Tang Yin was present, and Dong Sheng couldn't say it too directly. He hadn't seen Tang Yin before, he didn't think this person was like that, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he immediately became vigilant, Tang Yin was by no means an ordinary person, not to mention his courage to sneak into the country of Mozambique alone, just because he took precautions, his mind was far from being comparable to others, if Tang Yin became the king of the wind, would it also pose a threat to the country of Mozambique? These have to be considered. If you can get the hegemony, the Mozambican country can attack the wind country, retreat can defend, even if the wind country has the intention of plotting against the enemy, you have to be afraid of your own side.
After Shao Fang understood the meaning of Dong Sheng's words, he looked at Tang Yin, then at Dong Sheng, laughed, and said, "Let's discuss this matter in the future!"
Tang Yin has no opinion on this, as long as he doesn't dominate the pass now, the further back he goes, the better, and it is best to wait until his side completely eliminates Zhong Tian's forces before discussing it.
Dong Sheng nodded helplessly, now in front of Tang Yin, there are many words that are difficult to understand.
The two sides have their own ghosts and have their own concerns, but fortunately, there is one thing that the purpose of the two sides is the same, that is, to find a way to push Shao Fang to the position of the prince of Mozambique first.
In Dong Sheng's words, in addition to gaining the support of the ministers, it is inevitable to use some shady means and tricks to compete for the crown prince.
Shao Fang didn't understand what the means and tricks he was talking about, and asked suspiciously: "What does Dong Xiang mean......"
"Close and far, dense and sparse!" Dong Sheng said with a smile: "If you want to change the decision that your majesty has already thought of, you must first alienate the relationship between your majesty and His Royal Highness Shao Bo, and even make your majesty suspicious of His Royal Highness Shao Bo!"
"Oh?" Shao Fang inhaled, rolled his eyes, and muttered, "How can this be done?"
Dong Sheng smiled and asked rhetorically: "Your Highness thinks that what is the prince most afraid of between the princes?"
Shao Fang shook his head and said respectfully: "Please give advice to Prime Minister Dong!"
Dong Sheng said: "What the king is most afraid of is that the princes will form a party for personal gain, kill each other, and even plot to kill the king and seize the throne!"
Shao Fang was puzzled, what does this have to do with Shao Bo, although he doesn't know much about his brother, he also knows a thing or two, Shao Bo is as timid as a needle nose, and he is benevolent, even if he kills him, he will not dare to kill the king, and he will not kill other princes.
Dong Sheng saw Shao Fang's thoughts and said, "Then what does Your Highness think is the biggest obstacle for His Royal Highness Shao Bo to become the crown prince now?"
Shao Fang shook his head.
Dong Sheng said: "It is in order! According to the order, His Royal Highness is better than His Royal Highness Shao Bo, and it is a taboo to abolish the elder and establish the young, which is also the concern of the monarch who has not established the prince for a long time." If Your Highness is unlucky...... The old minister just assumed that if His Royal Highness unfortunately had an accident, then it would be natural for His Royal Highness Shao Bo to become the crown prince, so if His Royal Highness had an accident, His Royal Highness Shao Bo would be the most suspicious, even if he could not find real evidence, His Royal Highness would suspect His Royal Highness Shao Bo, and there would be suspicion and alienation in recent years!"
When Shao Fang heard this, he suddenly felt that the hut was wide open, and Tang Yin and Zong Yuan on the side were secretly frightened.
"What a clever plan!" Shao Fang stood up excitedly and paced back and forth in the room, admiring again and again.
Dong Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "It's just that if you want to use this trick, Your Highness will inevitably suffer from its flesh and skin!"
Shao Fang waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as I can't die, I can be injured multiple times." After a pause, he asked again: "When does Dong Xiang think it is better to act according to the plan?"
Dong Sheng said: "Late will change, the sooner the better." ”
"It's up to Prime Minister Dong!"
Shao Fang listened to Tang Yin's words and came to visit Dong Sheng, which can be described as a great success, not only successfully drawing Dong Sheng to his side, but also the latter also came up with a plan for him to divide the relationship between King Mo and Shao Bo.
On the way home, Shao Fang sincerely thanked Tang Yin and said: "Thanks to Brother Tang for persuading me this time, otherwise, I would have missed out on Dong Xiang." ”
Tang Yin couldn't cry or laugh at this time, he knew that Dong Sheng was such a powerful and difficult character, so he would not persuade Shao Fang to come and win over this person.
