Chapter 496: Surprise Attack on Shengjing
While speaking, Xu Yingwei had already entered the line.
I saw that a table of extension seats had been prepared in the line.
The banquet is not sumptuous, but it is not simple, the wine is a clear wine, and the dishes include fish and shrimp caught by themselves, venison, wild boar, bear meat, and most rarely, a pair of bear paws.
If Chongzhen is here, he will definitely feel emotional.
It's really hard to stop ushering in, eating, drinking, and drinking.
Zhu Cijiong has been by Chongzhen's side for a long time, and has developed a hard and simple style, and when he saw this, he frowned.
"Xu Zhizhi, I'm afraid this table of Yanxi will cost a lot of money, right?" Zhu Cijiong pointed to the wine and food on the table and asked, "You don't have enough for this meal for a month, right?" ”
"King Ding, you are wrong about this."
Xu Yingwei waved his hand and said, "This table didn't cost the Internal Affairs Office a penny." ”
"Didn't spend a penny?" Zhu Cijiong didn't have a good breath and said, "Xu gave advice, Lone doesn't read much, but don't want to deceive Lone, just this pair of bear paws will cost more than a dozen yuan." ”
Xu Yingwei laughed and said: "If this pair of bear paws is sold in Nanjing, it will be at least a dozen yuan, but we don't need to spend any money in Gaizhouwei, because I made it myself." ”
"You hit it?" Zhu Cijiong suddenly came to his senses when he heard this, "Is there a blind bear around here?" ”
Xu Yingwei said: "King Ding, there are not only bears near Gaizhou, but even big insects, last time we met one, but unfortunately let it run away, missing a tiger skin." ”
"Great." Zhu Cijiong was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Xu advised, let's go hunting after eating."
Xu Yingwei said: "Dingwang, let's wait until we finish our business." ”
"Yes, it's important to get down to business." Zhu Cijiong said helplessly.
"It's important to get down to business, but the most important thing right now is to eat."
As he spoke, Xu Yingwei opened a jar of wine for Zhu Cijiong, and then used a fast son to sandwich a bear's paw that had been stewed to the point of deboning and put it on Zhu Cijiong's plate.
Zhu Cijiong did not continue to refuse.
After taking a sip of wine, Zhu Cijiong asked again: "Xu Zhizhi, what should I do next?" ”
Before leaving, Chongzhen specially told Zhu Cijiong to obey Xu Yingwei's arrangement after he arrived in Liaodong.
As for the reason, it is not only because Chongzhen believes in Xu Yingwei's ability, but also because Xu Yingwei has been stationed in Gaizhou for nearly a year and is familiar with the situation in Liaodong.
When Zhu Cijiong first arrived, the most taboo was to dominate the guests.
For this, Xu Yingwei has also learned in advance from Chongzhen's letters.
At that moment, Xu Yingwei said: "Let's see what Park Dongxi says first, if he is willing to cooperate, it will be great, if he is unwilling to cooperate, then he can only find someone else, in the end, the North Korean clan is not only Li Liang." ”
Zhu Cijiong said: "I'm afraid of this coward, I don't dare to have the ambition to be the king of Joseon." ”
"That won't be." Xu Yingwei waved his hand and said, "This guy is still quite ambitious." ”
……
On the other side, Lee? has already called Park Dong-hee and Kim Jae-woo to him.
"Maharaja, are you telling the truth? Daming really wants to send troops to help us get rid of the slavery of Jiannu in North Korea? "Listen to Lee? Briefly explaining the situation, Park Dong-hee and Kim Jae-woo are both pleasantly surprised.
Kim Jae-woo continued: "Dajun, this is a good thing, hurry up." ”
"A good thing?" Plum? But he frowned and said faintly, "Huainanzi has clouds, blessings and misfortunes lurk, Daming is willing to send troops to help us get rid of Jiannu in North Korea, this is of course a great thing, but have you two thought about it, in case this matter does not work out, what should you do if you invite Jiannu to retaliate?" ”
"This ......," Park Dong-hee and Kim Jae-yu were speechless.
Plum? He continued: "The Dingmao and Bingzi chaos have greatly damaged the vitality of the DPRK, and we really can't afford to endure the third chaos. ”
After a long time, Park Dongxi continued: "Lord Linping, doing anything is like doing business, there are two possibilities of making money or losing money, borrowing troops from the Ming Dynasty to stir up chaos may fail anyway, but it is also possible to succeed, and I don't know if you have considered it, who should inherit the vacant throne?" ”
Plum? Hearing this, his face suddenly changed, and Park Dong-hee's words hit him to the point.
In a word, from the standpoint of North Korea, whether to borrow troops from the Ming Dynasty to set things right, the risks and benefits are five or five, but from him Li? If you don't borrow troops from the Ming Dynasty, then there will be no wins or losses.
Because his current identity is a prisoner of the Ming Dynasty, if he refuses to cooperate, the Ming Dynasty will definitely leave him and find another clan disciple to seek cooperation, in the end, there are many clan children in North Korea, and there are nearly 100 descendants under the knee of Xuanzu alone, and these are all qualified to inherit the Korean throne.
Therefore, he only had the choice of cooperating with the Ming army.
If he refuses to cooperate, he will lose the possibility of succession forever, and he may be executed by the Ming army.
Kim Jae-woo continued: "Maharaja, the Korean state can be reluctant, but only you are not qualified to be reluctant, and our Kim family and the Park family are not qualified to be reluctant. ”
"I'm right." Park Dong-hee echoed.
"This is the last chance for the Maharaja and our Park Kim family to turn around."
The Park family and the Kim family were the backbone of the Westerner Party, which in turn was the top elite when Gwanghae-jun was in power.
After the fall of Gwanghae-jun, the top elites of the Western-Japanese Party suffered an unprecedented and tragic purge, and the Park family and the Kim family were originally to be purged, but it was Li Ju who survived out of considerations of checks and balances.
Although the Park and Kim families saved their lives, their power was greatly weakened.
So the heads of the two families bet on Li? 's body, gambling on Lee one day? Coming to power, the Park and Kim families were able to regain their former power.
In a word, the party struggle in North Korea is even better than that of the Ming Dynasty.
This is the so-called temple little demon wind, the pool shallow king eight more, heh.
Kim Jae-woo continued: "And the Maharaja, you must return to North Korea as soon as possible." ”
"Oh yes, we need to go back as soon as possible." Park Dongxi woke up like a dream, "After Jiannu learned that the prince was captured by the Ming army, it is very likely that the prince of Fenglin will be released back in advance, and once the prince of Fenglin returns to Pyongyang, the prince will have no chance to win the throne of the prince, so we will lose." ”
Kim Jae-yu finally persuaded: "Dajun, make a decision early!" ”
Hear this, Lee? I finally made up my mind: "Okay, then borrow troops and go back to Pyongyang!" ”
See Lee? Finally made a decision, Park Dong-hee and Kim Jae-woo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Plum? Then he stood up again: "I'll go to King Ding's Ming Dynasty to borrow troops now." ”
……
Xu Yingwei accompanied Zhu Cijiong and Xia Wanchun, and the banquet was just halfway through when Xu Wuniu came in to report: "My lord, Park Dongxi asks to see you." ”
Xu Yingwei smiled and said to Zhu Cijiong: "King Ding, it seems that Li? The decision has been made. ”
"Was a decision made so quickly? Lone really underestimated him before. Zhu Cijiong said.
Xu Yingwei immediately said to Xu Wuniu: "Wuniu, bring Park Dongxi in." ”
"Yes." Xu Wuniu shook his head, turned around and walked out.
Soon, Lee? and was taken away.
Plum? They gave Zhu Cijiong and Xu Yingwei a long look.
Zhu Cijiong replied, but Xu Yingwei asked with a smile: "Li?, have you finally figured it out?" ”
"Huh?" Plum? He lost his voice and said, "Lord Xu has long known that I am Li??" How do you know? ”
"Isn't that obvious?" Xu Yingwei said abruptly, "The king of Joseon, Li Liang, has a total of five sons, of which the fourth and fifth sons are not yet minors, the eldest son Zhao Xian Shizi has been released back to Pyongyang by Jiannu at the beginning of the year, and died of illness a month ago, the second son Fenglin Dajun Lin Hao is in Beijing, and the third son Linping Dajun Li? As a hostage in Shengjing. ”
Zhu Cijiong continued: "So you can only be Lin Yao." ”
Plum? This time, he didn't hide it anymore, but officially bowed to the two of them: "The prince of Linping of the Korean state, Li, knock to see His Royal Highness the King of Damingding, and see Lord Xu Zhiji." ”
"Flat." Zhu Cijiong shook his hand.
Xu Yingwei replied with a long bow.
Plum? He also said: "Daming is willing to help North Korea set things right and get rid of the slavery of Jiannu, and the monarchs and ministers of North Korea are grateful, but there is still a difficulty here." ”
Zhu Cijiong said: "Are you worried that there will be opposition in North Korea? ”
"Yes, after the rebellion, Jiannu has cultivated a large number of henchmen in our Korean state, and these henchmen have stolen a large number of important positions." Plum? He said solemnly, "If you can't purge the henchmen cultivated by Jiannu, even if the Korean State is anyway with the help of the Great Ming Army, the situation will collapse again as soon as the Ming army leaves." ”
Xu Yingwei smiled and asked, "So what is the opinion of the Lord of Linping?" ”
Plum? This time, he didn't hide it, and said with a serious face: "It is necessary to carry out a thorough purge of the officials of the Korean state to ensure that the henchmen cultivated by Jiannu withdraw from the power center of the Korean state." ”
Hearing this, Zhu Cijiong couldn't help but smile and glanced at Xu Yingwei, you really guessed it.
This Lee? is really ambitious, he not only wants to be the son of the world, but also wants to use the force of the Ming army to overthrow Li Kun and grasp the real power of North Korea!
Seeing that Zhu Cijiong and Xu Yingwei were just laughing, Li? I was a little apprehensive.
Pause, Lee? He asked in a low voice, "I don't know what His Royal Highness King Ding and Lord Xu will think?" ”
"Yes." Zhu Cijiong patted him and said, "It's not a problem, as long as you want to, Da Ming can even directly force your father Li Liang to abdicate." ”
"No, no, that's not what Your Majesty meant."
Plum? A heart is pounding, and this proposition is indeed very tempting.
But Lee? I also know that the direct succession is a bit too hasty, and there will be sequelae.
"Anyway, it's up to you." Xu Yingwei said, "It's just that before returning to North Korea, there is one more thing, I'm afraid you will have to work hard for you to make a trip to Linping Maharaja, of course, it's just a trivial matter." ”
Plum? Said: "The minister listened to Xu's instructions to Lord Xu. ”
Xu Yingwei said with a smile: "Please assist us in the surprise attack on Shengjing City." ”
"Huh?" Plum? Suddenly his color changed, "Surprise attack on Shengjing City? ”
Surprise attack on Shengjing, this is Li? I never thought of it.
