Chapter 122: The Eldest Lady's Scheme

He showed him everything that should have been seen by Tang Mingyi in one go, and then it was nothing more than to repeat the news he had already obtained a few more times, so that he could speculate and judge how capable this aunt was.

These things are just done by themselves, and they don't need her to bother.

When he was in Liangzhou, the purpose of reviewing the past was very simple, since he couldn't hold Liangzhou City, he had to hold the Liangzhou army and let these 6,000 soldiers and horses live with him.

And entering Tongcheng did not really accomplish this purpose, after she took the step of stealing beams and changing pillars, although she did not have to face Beiyu's army for the time being, but in other aspects, the situation of the Liangzhou army was still difficult.

The reason why it is safe at this time is because Nanchu's energy is still on the succession of the court and the war with Beiyu.

If the Beiyu army penetrates Anping and Guangyang, and then attacks southward, at least some pressure on Lianzhou that is almost under the city, no matter who the new monarch of Southern Chu is, he must arrange for the Dingyi army to go southeast to defend Lianzhou.

At that time, the Liangzhou army can take Tongcheng as the foundation, take advantage of the chaos to take Yongzhou to the west, and then find an opportunity to recapture Liangzhou, then in the gap between the two countries, it may be able to fight for some vitality.

But now, it seems that although Nanchu has been accumulating disadvantages for a long time, it is not in a hopeless state, and it can at least compete with Beiyu for a while.

The danger of the mountains on the south side of Anping Quang Duong is not so easy to pass.

If the war is stable or the new monarch ascends the throne, the Southern Chu court will have empty hands, and once they want to come to investigate Tongcheng, they can't help but ask in detail.

Moreover, if Tang Mingyi loses to Tang Xianyao, Chuyang Pass will definitely attack north, I am afraid it is no different from his own plan.

The last time Chuyang Pass lost, it was only because he didn't know the real situation in Tongcheng, and he only learned of Tang Mingyi's death after he set off.

If he was to be prepared to send troops again, the situation of the Liangzhou army would not be easier than when he was in Liangzhou.

Therefore, if you want to survive, it is not enough to just favor Antong City.

Nanchu and Beiyu went to fight by themselves, and although she didn't care who lost or won, she was never willing to help Beiyu.

It happened that Tang Mingyi came to Lianzhou at this time, and his current situation was generally clear, the heirs of Tang Chengjing, the emperor of Southern Chu, were too simple, and Tang Xianyao was a few years older, although he was guarded by his father, he inevitably had private contact with the commanders of the county guards prematurely.

Tang Mingyi was born a few years late, and was "cared for" by his brother for a few years, and his connections were also delayed. Only the Chu family, who is not very embarrassed by the eldest prince, and Chu Yangguan, the chief general of the Dingyi army, are supported.

And what role Ling Guangjun will play in this period is not yet known.

But overall, Tang Mingyi is at a disadvantage.

Judging from these few brief contacts, this second prince of Southern Chu is not a mediocre person, and since he is at a disadvantage, he must concentrate all his forces as much as possible to fight for the position he wants.

The desperate Liangzhou Army and the helpless only daughter of General Wen are not one of the best helpers?

As long as the Liangzhou army is accepted by Tang Mingyi, the situation in Southern Chu will no longer be so difficult.

Now, then, there is a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

Due to their own arrangement, their group of people are really doing well in Tongcheng, so good that they have nothing to do with the words "desperate" and "helpless".

Tang Mingyi thought about it carefully, and he could see that there was a review, at least he had the intention of taking Tongcheng to stand on his own.

In this way, between the two of them, there is no suspicion and suspicion, right?

So what you have to do is to get closer to those eight words.

Now, the chessboard has been drawn, and it is only necessary to lead Tang Mingyi to make a move.

On the second day, Tang Mingyi and the guards still acted separately according to the errands assigned to them. The Second Highness of Da Chu still condescended to chat with the aunt who was too guarded in this small border town, and everything in the city was as usual, even if he did not lose the center.

But a small incident happened on Master Sun's side.

It was not only the impoverished homeless people who came to Tongcheng from Guangyang, Anping, but also some sons of big clans like "Tang Mingming", who fled to the city with many belongings in order to avoid the military disaster.

These people, whether they have an entourage or not, have some money in their hands, so they don't bother to make a living.

Seeing that the city was comfortable, after living steadily for a few days, he resumed his usual style of a noble son.

Since they don't have their previous connections here, and at the same time, they have to hide their net worth properly, so they will only find it boring in places like wine shops and teahouses. But there is always some pastime, so they all converge in the chess hall gambling house opened by the Sun family.

These sons who have no foundation, of course, have become fat sheep in the mouth of Master Sun.

The silver taels on the body, the deeds of the slaves, the ancestral treasures, and even the wives and concubines and children, as long as they are willing to mortgage, Master Sun will accept them all.

And today, there is a son surnamed Lu, who has no way to resist, lost the last two taels of silver in the Sun family's gambling house, and carried a debt of more than 100 taels.

Originally, the money owed to the Sun family was nothing, Master Sun was merciful, and he did not cut off their way of life, and he could also sell himself into the Sun family to be a slave.

But this Lu Gongzi really didn't know what to do, and he actually shouted in public that the Sun family's gambling house was out of a thousand and this kind of bad reputation of Master Sun.

If you make a disrespectful statement, you naturally want to beg for a beating, but after a while, this Lu Gongzi, who has not experienced the hardships of the world, begged for mercy, only said that he could pay it back, and then picked up and took out his clothes, boots, belts, and a pile of messy debris.

The owner of the gambling house looked at it briefly, but it was not worth five taels of silver, and when he was about to arrest him and take him to the small room at the back of the gambling house, and then give him the knowledge of the rise, he disguised himself as an account room, but the person in charge of some of the news channels of the Sun family saw something different from it.

"Wait."

As soon as the bookkeeper spoke, the owner of the cabinet was silent, only to see him sort the pile of miscellaneous items, and then asked in a harmonious voice: "Young Master Lu, let me ask, are these things carried by yourself?" ”

The blue-nosed and swollen Lu Gongzi replied timidly: "I won't steal and rob, it's all my own." ”

"Lu Gongzi refuses to tell the truth." The bookkeeper laughed expressionlessly, "I still have to let him work harder." ”

The second half of the account room was said to the owner of the cabinet, and the owner of the cabinet was even more nonsense, and came up and stretched out his hand to mention the collar of Lu Gongzi.

Lu Gongzi hurriedly dodged and said hurriedly: "Don't don't, don't, which one do you want to ask?" I'll tell you all. ”

When the bookkeeper heard this, he picked up a water bladder from the sundries: "I'll ask where this thing comes from." ”
