Chapter 911: Negotiation
Qian Jing looked at Ye Yunyang with a strange gaze, and Elder Qian was the same.
Ye Yunyang expected this to be the result, so he behaved very calmly.
With the master's approval, Qian Jing tried his best to make his tone sound normal, but there was still a hint of contempt in it, and said, "Ye Gongzi, do you really not know, or are you pretending to be confused?"
Ye Yunyang was not angry at all, and said, "What does the Qian family master mean by this?"
Qian Jing straightened his body and said, "More than eighty percent of the forces in the Divine Realm are in the hands of Elder Zhao, you won't know about this matter, right?"
Ye Yunyang nodded, and said with a straight face: "Of course I know." β
Qian Jing raised his eyebrows and said, "Then you still let us carry out a coup d'Γ©tat, isn't this taking eggs to touch stones?"
Elder Qian was also waiting for his answer, and it was obvious that if he could not give a reasonable explanation, not only would the two of them not take his opinion, but they would also doubt his intentions.
"Two, you have been fighting with Elder Zhao for so long, but there has been no result, what is the reason?" Ye Yunyang did not give an answer, but asked the two of them rhetorically.
Qian Jing still couldn't help but show contempt, and said, "For the reason I mentioned just now, Elder Zhao not only controls the Council of Elders, but also controls more than eighty percent of the troops, so that Elder Qian, who is deeply loved by the people, can only fight against him, but cannot replace him. β
"Then why don't you go and enlist the support of the military?" he said, winking.
"It's not easy to talk about!" Elder Qian finally couldn't help it, and said: "The tree surnamed Zhao has deep roots, he has been operating in the position of the first elder for several years, and he has already installed all his cronies in the army hundreds of years ago and become the mainstay of the army, these people have a complicated relationship with Elder Zhao, they are for the community of interests, and they are extremely loyal to him, how can they switch to my disciples?"
After a pause, Elder Qian continued: "It's not that Elder Ben hasn't tried, and he finally got through a few generals, but he was preempted by the surnamed Li. In the final analysis, this path simply does not work, and the army cannot listen to me. β
Ye Yunyang was waiting for this sentence, he spread his hands and said, "That's why you should carry out a coup d'Γ©tat." β
Qian Jing's face became unkind, and he asked, "Ye Gongzi, what do you mean, let us take the initiative to send us to death?"
Ye Yunyang waved his hand and explained: "It is precisely because it is impossible for the army to submit to your Qian family, so it is necessary to kill the surnamed Zhao before raising troops to destroy you, and when the other party has no leader, Elder Qian is deeply loved by the people, under these two pressures, those who serve as soldiers can only choose to submit!"
Elder Qian's eyes tightened, obviously moved by this point of view.
Before, he had been suffering from not being able to do Elder Zhao, even if he became the popular favor of the people, because the surname Zhao held the military power, no matter what means he used, although he had the upper hand in the battle, it was difficult to get what he wanted.
Ye Yunyang continued: "You only need to kill one person surnamed Zhao, and you can become the control of the God Realm, why not do it? Our Terran will openly support you in power, and we will continue to carry out trade activities between the two sides, as long as the God Clan lives a good life, will they care if you have done anything to kill the Great Elder? The answer is no, they will support you." β
Qian Jing's eyes flashed with excitement, and he nodded at Elder Qian one after another.
Elder Qian frowned and said: "How difficult it is to kill the surnamed Zhao, he is a master himself, and there are so many people around him to protect him, if he misses, it will be me who is unlucky." β
Ye Yunyang shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is originally a risky thing, is it possible that Elder Qian thinks that there will be no danger if he fights with Elder Zhao with the current method?" As the saying goes, the first strike is the strongest, and the second attack suffers, the surnamed Zhao is now in a hurry, not only has to deal with the barbarians and our human race at the same time, but also always guards against you from behind the back, you say that among these three things, which one will he choose to deal with first?"
Cold sweat appeared on Elder Qian's forehead, and he remembered a sentence that often appeared in Elder Zhao's mouth: If you go outside, you must first settle inside.
Neither the barbarian nor the human race is an enemy that can be solved in a moment, compared to him, he is the easiest, whether it is out of strategic considerations, or simply the old lady eating persimmons and picking soft pinch, he will bear the brunt of being solved by Elder Zhao.
Qian Jing also woke up, and said with a worried face: "Great Elder, the surname Zhao has already sent someone to assassinate you last time, although it was not successful, but at least it shows that he wants to kill you, the current God Clan is worried about internal and external troubles, and the next time he does it again, he will definitely do his best." Ye Gongzi is right, the latter will suffer, we can't fall behind him. β
Elder Qian nodded slightly, and sighed: "Of course I want to kill the surnamed Zhao, and I also have the confidence and strength to do this, but when the time comes, if the army returns to Elder Li, won't it become a wedding dress for others?"
His worries are not unreasonable, Elder Li and Elder Zhao are in the same group, the surname Zhao is dead, and his team has no leader, in order to protect his own interests, he will definitely nominate Elder Li to power.
Ye Yunyang smiled and said with deep meaning: "It seems that Elder Qian's information is not well-informed, and he actually thinks that Elder Li and Elder Zhao have the same heart. β
Elder Qian raised his eyebrows and asked, "Please make Ye Gongzi clearer." β
"In fact, Elder Zhao didn't trust Elder Li at all. Ye Yunyang explained in detail, saying: "The surname Zhao is very suspicious, he suspects that Elder Li is secretly colluding with the barbarians, and even has an unclear relationship with our human race, which is really ridiculous. He had wanted to move Elder Li for a long time, if it weren't for the fact that Elder Li had the support of some generals in the army, it was estimated that he would have encountered a black hand long ago. β
On the one hand, Elder Qian was excited, and on the other hand, he was suspicious, and said, "Is what Young Master Ye said true?"
Ye Yunyang said with a straight face: "If you don't believe it, you can go to Elder Li in person to ask for verification, he regarded you as an enemy when he just defected to Elder Zhao, but now he will definitely welcome your arrival and treat you as a guest." β
Elder Qian took a deep breath and said, "If we can get Elder Li's support, launching a coup d'Γ©tat is equivalent to half the success. β
Ye Yunyang smiled faintly and said, "It seems that Elder Qian thinks that my plan is feasible, and this trip has not been in vain! There is one more thing, please answer Elder Qian truthfully, did you send someone to kill me in the first place, when I realized the Tao in the Holy Land." β
Elder Qian said solemnly: "It's not me! Elder Ben sent someone to investigate this matter carefully, and it was Elder Zhao who wanted to kill you, he bribed a person named Qian Duo, this person is the son of my Qian family, and using him to kill you is nothing more than trying to frame me for blame, and we are both thorns in his side and flesh." β
"I see, I'll just say, how could Elder Qian send someone to kill me. Ye Yunyang stood up with a smile and said, "It's not early, the Divine Realm is really not safe for me, I have to hurry back to my own side." Before leaving, I wish Elder Qian success in his operation, and hope that the next time we meet, you will be the new master of the Presbyterian Church, and we will be able to talk about cooperation and trade by then. β
Elder Qian also stood up and said solemnly: "Thank you Gongzi Ye for your support, Elder Ben will definitely not let you down, goodbye!"
A few minutes later, Ye Yunyang's shuttle disappeared into the dark night.
Qian Jing was a little uncertain in his heart, and asked, "Great Elder, are we really going to launch a coup d'Γ©tat?"
Elder Qian snorted and said, "It depends on Elder Li's choice, if he is willing to stand on our side, a big thing can be done! You immediately go to the Li family, test the other party's tone, and prove that what Ye Yunyang said is true, and then Elder Ben will come forward in person." β
"Yes!"
The Terran fleet began to retract its formation, Ye Yunyang returned to the flagship command cabin, Yin Zishi and Wu Junyan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, they were worried for a long time, for fear that he would have some accidents, and they would not be able to explain to everyone after they went back.
Ye Yunyang gave an order, and the fleet returned.
At noon on the third day, a mysterious carriage drove into the Li family's mansion through the back door and headed straight for Elder Li's residence.
A moment later, the carriage stopped in a small courtyard, and from it came a man in a black cloak, the brim of which was pressed so low that it was impossible to see his face.
The man in black walked into the main hall and immediately closed the door with his backhand.
Elder Li sat upright, his eyes looking directly at the man in black.
The man in black took off his hat, revealing a face that he was not unfamiliar with.
That's right, the man in black is none other than Elder Qian, he said with a smile on his face, and said in a tone of apology: "I'm really sorry, and I ask Elder Li not to be surprised, after the assassination last time, Elder Ben had to be careful." β
Elder Li showed great generosity and said, "There is nothing wrong with being careful, Elder Qian has a noble status, it is right to do this, please take a seat." β
"Thank you. Elder Qian sat down and said straight to the point: "Elder Li, I intend to bring down Elder Zhao, what choice do you make?"
Elder Li didn't sell it, and said bluntly: "I believe that Elder Qian already knows my situation, the surname Zhao doesn't trust me, it stands to reason that I should deal with him with you, but you also know that I have never been interested in power, rather than getting involved in this fight, it is better to be alone and help each other." β
Elder Qian frowned and said, "Please also ask Elder Li to speak more clearly." β
Elder Li didn't hide it either, and said, "If you can bring down the surnamed Zhao, I will publicly express my support for you, and then resign from the position of Great Elder, become a Tian Shelang, and spend the rest of your days in peace." β
"What if the one surnamed Zhao wins?" Elder Qian asked rhetorically.
Elder Li made a very helpless expression and said, "If he wins, with my understanding of him, he will definitely not let me go, I believe that it won't be long before you and I will meet again in hell." β
Elder Qian had a bottom in his heart, in his opinion, whether Elder Li contributed or not would not have any influence on the coup d'Γ©tat, as long as he did not continue to stand on Elder Zhao's side, he could weaken the strength of the Zhao Party.
Moreover, Elder Li was indeed not keen on power, and he was a man of arrogant character, and if he showed a willingness to change his court, it would make people doubt his motives.
In fact, this is also the result that Elder Qian wants to see the most, including Elder Li's remarks that he is willing to serve Tian Shelang, which is secretly in line with his heart, so he doesn't want one more person to share the fruits of victory.
"Okay, since Elder Li said so, I believe you. Elder Qian stood up and said.
Elder Li also stood up and said, "You and I have worked together for many years, and what I have said will not change, you can rest assured of this. β
