0642 Driving Brother Away from Brother
"This, this...... How fortunate are dogs? can actually engage in the world's heroic stream! ”
Wang Seng was slightly stunned when he heard Li Tai's request, but after a while, he immediately replied with a surprised face: "There are indeed a few clumsy disciples in the household, or they have no talent to be called, but they are pure in temperament, diligent and studious, and if they are taught and appointed by the general, they will be able to serve wholeheartedly!" ”
Things have developed to this point, which is really unexpected by Wang Sengbian, and at this time, in addition to being full of surprise, it is a surprise that cannot be suppressed. It's not that he has the heart to take refuge in the Northern Dynasty, but Li Tai's appreciation and forgiveness for him is no different from a ray of bright sunshine in the gray sky, which makes his confused and depressed mood greatly improved.
Although Wang Shengbi was born in the Northern Dynasty, he followed his father to Nantou since he was a teenager, and then served as a subordinate official of the Xiangdong royal family for decades.
However, the king of Xiangdong has a mean personality and likes to be suspicious, and few people can be trusted by him. Wang Seng has been in the palace for many years, and once his words and deeds are slightly out of his mind, he will still inevitably be severely reprimanded and punished.
After many years of engagement, if some of the meanness of the King of Xiangdong has made Wang Seng Debate accustomed to it, then what really goes beyond his principles of life is that after the Hou Jing Rebellion, the King of Xiangdong is not in a hurry to settle the chaos but is keen to raise a civil war and eradicate dissidents.
Of course, there is no problem with this approach from the perspective of the king of Xiangdong, Xiao Yu, the king of Hedong, has his own way of death, and he does not feel much regret for the death of his person, but he does not want to become the executioner of the murderous clan in the civil war, especially if the lord is such a person as the king of Xiangdong, which makes Wang Shengbi not only tarnished in his reputation, but also has been in political danger.
The king of Xiangdong loves fame, on the surface, he is a corporal and a humble man, but in fact, he is jealous and jealous, ruthless and vicious. Now that he needs to rely on Wang Sangbi to eradicate dissidents in the clan, it is very likely that he will completely pin the guilt on Wang Sangbi's head in the coming year to maintain his good reputation.
Even a few years later, just for now, the king of Xiangdong is already doing this. In order to respond to the accountability of the Western Wei Dynasty and appease the anger of the other party, he directly forced Wang Seng to come to the north to plead guilty.
As far as Wang Sengbi knows, apart from their team, Jiangling has not made any other personnel arrangements, in other words, after their team enters the north of the city, whether they live or die is completely involuntary, but must listen to the other party's mood.
Although Wang Shengbi had just led his troops to win a victory, conquering Changsha and capturing Xiangzhou, he was still ruthlessly pushed out by the king of Xiangdong to top the black pot.
Although the king of Xiangdong was mean and unkind, Wang Shengbi could only bear it silently. He has spent half of his life in the Xiangdong Palace, and he is a general of the palace at best, but in fact he is just a slave under the Xiangdong Palace. After leaving the Xiangdong Palace, he did not have any prestige and strength to make a situation by himself, but would bear the notoriety of an old thief and run into walls everywhere.
Li Tai's appreciation and praise have given Wang Seng Debate great encouragement, and even he himself does not dare to boast that he is a person who came into being and can quell the thieves, and the conditions put forward by him have given Wang Seng Debate a new choice in the predicament.
Wang Shengbi naturally did not have the idea of betraying the king of Xiangdong, even if he did not talk about his loyalty to the king of Xiangdong and the Liang state, the current Jingfu seemed to be the largest town in the Liang country and the only force with hope and ability to quell the rebellion of Hou Jing. Wang Seng has been the king of Xiangdong for decades, and now he can be called the number one general in the palace, so he is naturally reluctant to give up such a great achievement.
However, the suspicion of the king of Xiangdong and the contradictions between the clans, as well as the still menacing military momentum of Hou Jing's rebels, also made Wang Seng not dare to be too optimistic about this. He is all involved in this, but he doesn't want his wife and children to be trapped here, if he has a choice, of course, he also hopes that his son can have other choices.
Today's Li Tai seems to be a famous general of the Western Dynasty, and the Jingzhou Governor's Mansion under his control, Wang Shengbi has carefully observed all the way, and he also feels the prosperity of development.
It's just that since the last time he was angry with the king of Xiangdong because he refused to fight in Xiangzhou for the first time, he was even stabbed by the angry king of Xiangdong with a sword, relying on his mother's crying request, and the war in Xiangzhou was unfavorable before he was entrusted with military affairs by the king of Xiangdong, but since then his family has been controlled by the king of Xiangdong as a hostage. Before he wanted his eldest son, who was already an adult, to join the army, he was rejected by the king of Xiangdong, and he was given an official position and stayed in the palace.
Wang Seng Debate was unwilling to give up this opportunity, so he hurriedly said: "Monk Debate has his own will to die, and he has this body, and he is also subject to General Li's sanctions. Today, I am fortunate to have General Li's mercy and forgiveness and no punishment, but my lord Xiao Dawang is deeply concerned about the past, and I am afraid that it is still difficult to let go, so I implore the general to give him a piece of paper to confess the misunderstanding and rebuild the alliance. But to achieve such a good wish, what a pity for the monks! ”
Of course, Li Tai could hear the implication of Wang Sengbi's words, it was obvious that Wang Sengbi's family had lost their freedom, if he didn't open his mouth to the one-eyed dragon, even if Wang Sengbi wanted to send his son, he wouldn't be able to do it.
Under such internal and external troubles, the relationship between the one-eyed dragon and the generals under his command is so poor, which is really eye-opening.
After a little muttering, he nodded again and said, "Since the ice has released the previous suspicions, of course, it needs to be repaired." Wang Lingjun donated a son to help the two sides resolve the conflict, and naturally it must be recorded in the book, so that this loyalty and good wish cannot be buried! ”
He didn't have any idea of recruiting Wang Sengbi, and he didn't have any intention of resisting just seeing that Wang Sengbi was so engaged by the one-eyed dragon, and it was estimated that even if he solicited, it would only be boring for himself.
However, if one of Wang Shengbian's sons is included in the discipleship, it can leave a channel for future dialogue and negotiation between them. Although the current Wang Sheng's debate is not of much value, when Hou Jing's rebellion is calmed down, his importance will be highlighted.
Especially if you want to capture Gangneung in the coming year, because your influence may not be able to rush to the front before all reinforcements arrive as you have in history, it is very important to be able to communicate with Wang Sengbi.
When the time comes, he can send his son to Wang Seng to send a soul torture question: Why are you in such a hurry to return to Jiangling? Do you want the one-eyed dragon to poke a few more blood holes in you? Isn't it good to honestly squat in Jiankang and wait to support Shaojun and form a hegemon?
Wang Seng naturally does not know that his future self can also be mixed into a powerful person who can affect the general trend of the world in a single thought, and he was overjoyed after hearing Li Tai's statement, and he was sincerely grateful to Li Tai in his heart, and thanked him again and again, and he couldn't wait to return to Jiangling now and arrange for his son to enter the north of the country.
But Li Tai hasn't finished his work here, so naturally he can't let them go. The matter of Xiao Yu, the king of Hedong, can be regarded as a revelation for the time being.
After all, the king of Xiangdong is willing to send his generals to admit his mistakes, and his posture can be said to be extremely low, if Li Tai still refuses to forgive, then the next development of the situation will inevitably be to intervene by force. But it is obviously not a good time to start a war against Gangneung now, and it is enough to get by on the face.
But in addition to this one thing, there is another thing, that is, Xiao Lun, the king of Shaoling, who entered Jiangxia.
"The king of Shaoling of your country is advancing according to Jiangxia, and he has written to my dynasty that he has the intention of plotting for me in Handong. When you return to the town, ask the king of Xiangdong for me if you know about this? I don't want any misunderstanding between the two sides because of this, so I'll be patient for the time being. If the king of Xiangdong can't control it, I will raise troops to the south and ask the king of Shaoling if he thinks I am weak and can be bullied? ”
Li Tai looked at the two envoys from Jiangling and said in a deep voice: "I know that your Liang family is flourishing, but the ownership of Handong has long been agreed with the king of Xiangdong. I am not a belligerent, but whoever dares to provoke him will be dealt a blow to him! If you lose faith in others, you will suffer yourself, and the king should check himself. This kind of incident cannot be repeated, the king cannot prohibit it, and I will destroy it! ”
When the two Jiangling envoys heard Li Tai's aggressive tone, their mood also became nervous, and they hurriedly lowered their heads and defended: "Please General Li calm down and don't be impatient, the king of Shaoling will enter Yingzhou, and the king of my family will not know in advance." Now they are also communicating with each other, but the king of Shaoling is proud of his teeth and refuses to obey the orders of Jingfu, and the king of my family is also in great difficulty? ”
"The king of Xiangdong dominates the town of Jiangzhong, which is a matter that was determined when the ancestor of your country was alive, and now in the midst of thieves and chaos in the country, the king's life is difficult to do, and those who have wisdom and courage should go bravely. I have also heard the name of King Shaoling, but the governor's army is incapable of setting the chaos, and the name of the clan is really a national thief. The king of Xiangdong sits on the brave people of Jiangling, but he can't control it? ”
When Li Tai heard this, he sneered, and then said: "If the Jiangling armor soldiers are difficult to win this use, I can send troops to help in the battle, and the personnel in the middle reaches of the river are all in charge, and I have the people in charge to discuss the dishes, how can I allow outsiders to flow into this place to disturb the situation!" ”
The people in Jiangling were a little dumbfounded when they heard this, you were still righteously and sternly scolding our king for torturing and killing his nephew, why are you now encouraging the king to murder his siblings? What's more, why did you Xiqiang thieves become your own people with us?
Although these people had a lot of miscellaneous thoughts and slander in their hearts, they didn't dare to reason with Li Tai, so they could only nod their heads again and again and said that they would definitely convey this intention to the king after returning, and give a satisfactory answer as soon as possible.
Li Tai doesn't think that his behavior has a double standard, Xiao Yu is my beloved relatives and friends, and Xiao Lun is a thorn in the foot, so can it be the same? What's more, everything is born once and twice matured, and the expulsion of the sixth child should be handed over to the seventh child.
