Regarding this idea of the Nine Emperor Princes, Shangguan Yuanzhi did not accept it all, but shook his head and said.

"Your Highness the Nine, I'm afraid Yue Lingjun is not so easy to coax, but I do have some strategies here, forcing people to surrender their names will only push people out, if Your Highness the Ninth is willing, it is better to listen to my advice, I think so."

Shangguan Yuanzhi paused for a moment before speaking.

"But all people will have weaknesses, and Yue Lingjun is no exception, it's just that we haven't discovered it yet, but as long as we pay attention to it, we can always detect one or two."

"Yue Lingjun has a proud personality, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling, money, power, fame, he doesn't want it, what does he want? I think you should understand, it's nothing more than loyalty to Great Xia, and you want to protect every inch of Great Xia, I don't know if I'm right? ”

Hearing these analyses, the Nine Emperor Princes did not object, because Yue Lingjun in his impression did pursue this, which seemed to be benevolent and righteous, but it was also a little annoying!

In the entire Great Xia, only Yue Lingjun has the world in mind and cares about the people, and everyone else is a hypocritical villain!

It was precisely because of these distracting thoughts in his heart that the Nine Emperor Princes could not let go of Yue Lingjun's hostility.

Now Shangguan Yuanzhi's words can be regarded as hooking out the truest thoughts in his heart.

The Nine Emperors didn't think that his uncle was on Yue Lingjun's side, he was just very strange, why did his uncle say these words, it looked like he was speaking for Yue Lingjun.

So he also asked: "Uncle, I know very well what kind of virtue Yue Lingjun is, but why are you telling me this?" ”

Shangguan Yuanzhi explained with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Nine, if you want to become the emperor, then you know that people are good at making good use of them, and now those people you have gathered around you, each of them has a handle that you hold in your hands, you don't necessarily have to treat them all as marionettes, but loyalty is a must." ”

"Yue Lingjun is only loyal to Da Xia, and he doesn't even care who is the emperor, since this is the case, then we might as well take advantage of the trend, Yue Lingjun's stinky temper can't be changed, then we might as well accommodate him."

The Nine Emperors all laughed happily.

"Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you want me to be a dignified Nine Emperor Prince to accommodate a little general? What are you kidding, even if Yue Lingjun is powerful, he is just a courtier, I will be the emperor in the future, you let me, the emperor, accommodate a courtier? It's ridiculous! Amusing! ”

Shangguan Yuanzhi said seriously.

"Your Royal Highness the Nine, I said this, but it's all for your good, you are better than the crown prince left and right, Yue Lingjun is a smart person, he knows who he should choose, even if he doesn't say it on the surface, as long as he supports you in his heart, it will be enough."

"As long as you satisfy what Yue Lingjun wants, you will naturally gain something, you think so, Yue Lingjun came to you first, isn't it a certain degree of recognition of you?"

"You worked hard to meet Yue Lingjun's requirements, but the prince didn't even know that Yue Lingjun wanted to participate in the party struggle, so in this comparison, is the prince much behind you? Wait until one day you cover Yue Lingjun's piece of ice with heat, and that will be the time to make the prince dumbfounded! ”

Thinking of the scene depicted by Shangguan Yuanzhi, the Nine Emperor Princes couldn't help but feel a little moved.

Yes, Yue Lingjun is indeed a piece of ice, but if he can cover the heat, he will definitely be able to stimulate the prince fiercely, does that waste know what it means to recruit talents?

In addition to the crown prince, the current heir to the throne is only himself, as long as he does better than the prince in all aspects, why didn't Yue Lingjun choose himself? Why not be loyal to yourself?

Besides, as long as he becomes the emperor, even if Yue Lingjun is unwilling to be loyal, he has to pinch his nose and admit it.

After analyzing it, Shangguan Yuanzhi made a conclusion.

"All in all, whether it is from personal talent, or from net worth background, or temperament, as long as Yue Lingjun is not a fool, he knows who to choose, and he has already made a hint, or an explicit."

"Your Highness the Nine, you just received a very beautiful recruitment, we only need to work hard to achieve Yue Lingjun's wish, send him to the frontier, he will definitely remember it, the time has come, even if you don't have to say anything from His Highness the Nine, I believe that Yue Lingjun will not be ungrateful."

Shangguan Yuanzhi's analysis is reasonable, the Nine Emperor Princes have nothing to say now, originally he had an idea in his heart, he wanted to take Yue Lingjun under his command, he was originally a little worried, but he was persuaded by his uncle like this, and it was gone.

Anyway, his uncle would not harm him, and the Nine Emperor Princes could be sure of this, so he agreed.

The two uncles and nephews here discussed well, and on the other hand, when Yue Lingjun returned to the General's Mansion, he looked at Lu Xuanqing with curiosity.

Yue Lingjun just glanced at it lightly, and then went directly into the study, picked up a military book and read it, looking at it like this, it seemed that he didn't want to communicate with Lu Xuanqing.

Lu Xuanqing laughed: "General, what do you mean by this?" I've been waiting for you here for a long time, and I haven't been back for the night, so don't you have anything to tell me? When you said you were going to take refuge in the Nine Emperors, what was their reaction? ”

Yue Lingjun turned the page without changing his face and said lightly.

"Isn't Prime Minister Lu smart? This proposal is still made by you, I think, I don't need to say, you should guess what the reaction of the Nine Emperor Princes is. ”

Lu Xuanqing chuckled.

"The general is angry? I know, I should have told you my plan earlier, but I'm worried that you won't be able to act, you've always been an upright character. ”

"What if I told you early in the morning that you were confident and others would see it? I'm also doing this for your good, for the good of Great Xia, and for the good of the soldiers on the frontier. ”

Yue Lingjun finally raised his eyes from the book, his eyes were full of disapproval, threw the military book on the table, and walked in front of Lu Xuanqing in a few steps.

"Lu Xuanqing, I don't care what you think, but since you choose to help me, then you should tell me your plan, in some aspects, I am indeed inferior to you, but in this kind of thing, I will definitely not have a problem."

Yue Lingjun's face was confident, Lu Xuanqing looked at Yue Lingjun's face quietly, the two looked at each other for a while, no one flinched, Lu Xuanqing was defeated first, and raised his hand helplessly.

"That's it, this time I did something wrong, I promise that if there is anything in the future, I will tell you as soon as possible, this is okay, right?"

Yue Lingjun's eyes narrowed a little, his cold mood disappeared, and he turned into calm, and returned to the table to drink tea.

"I'm glad you can say that, but I hope you can actually do it." After saying that, he picked up the book again and read it.

Seeing him like this, Lu Xuanqing laughed angrily.

"General, I have already promised you, do you want to talk about the attitude of the Nine Emperors?"

Yue Lingjun: "Aren't you smart?" Guess for yourself. ”

Lu Xuanqing looked surprised, and then laughed.

"I didn't expect you to have such a naïve side, General, it's okay, then guess, according to me, the Nine Emperors have no choice, they must have agreed, but they may not be so happy, or they didn't say it to death."

"But I promise you, he will definitely help you, after all, you are such a big general's mansion, such a big power, who doesn't look greedy, even if the Nine Emperor Prince is suspicious, he can't withstand this temptation, you are fragrant and sweet, he will definitely eat it, but he may have to wronged you next."

Yue Lingjun raised his eyes and frowned, "What do you mean?" Didn't I already do what you said? What else do I need to do next? ”

Lu Xuanqing shrugged his shoulders, walked to the chair and sat down, then tidied up the hem of his clothes, and said helplessly.

"I have already promised you that I will tell you if there is anything, then I will remind you now, although the Nine Emperors promised to help you, they only promised to go to the emperor to intercede and let you go to the frontier quickly, but for anything else, it still depends on you to fight for it again."

"What's the saying? The three armies have not moved, the grain and grass go first, the frontier has been fighting for so long, I am afraid that this grain and grass has already been eaten, if you are going, and then bring a wave of support, then you will definitely have to eat more grain and grass, so before you set off, you have to go to the Nine Emperors to run a few more times, for the soldiers of the frontier to ask for more grain and grass. ”

Yue Lingjun asked with a frown.

"What you say, let me ask the Nine Emperor Princes for ...... Could it be that the Nine Emperor Princes were to pay out of their own pockets? Now that the treasury is empty, the emperor is definitely unwilling to give out this grain and grass, and even if he does, he may negotiate with me about conditions, so do you want the Nine Emperors to fill this hole? How could he possibly say yes? ”

Lu Xuanqing smiled and took a sip of tea, and then sighed in surprise.

"When did the general lose confidence in himself? Aren't you still sure that you will be able to get things done? Don't worry, as long as you come forward, even if the Nine Emperors feel pain, they will definitely agree to you. ”

"After all, he has already regarded the throne of Great Xia as his own, so the country of Great Xia is naturally his, what's wrong with making some blood for his own country? When you go to see him, you will hint a little in and out of your words, and say that you will definitely do your best to assist Ming Jun in the future, and with the self-righteous character of the Nine Emperor Princes, you still think you are praising him. ”

Lu Xuanqing's tone was full of mockery.

"In the past few years that you have been in the capital, the Nine Emperor Princes have looted a lot of silver, and there have been natural disasters in several places in Great Xia, such as floods, droughts, locust plagues, and the earth dragon turned over, and the Nine Emperor Princes have robbed several errands."

"He has been greedy for all the disaster relief money allocated by the treasury, and now let him spit out the money, which can be regarded as reluctantly taking from the people and using it for the people, which is what he should pay."

Yue Lingjun's face darkened.

"Prime Minister Lu, have you forgotten your duties? You are the prime minister of Great Xia, and the Nine Emperor Princes have swallowed so much disaster relief silver, don't you care? The people have to endure the pain caused by natural disasters, and now they have to bear the humiliation of man-made disasters. ”

The smile on Lu Xuanqing's face instantly converged, and he snorted coldly.

"The general really doesn't have a backache when you stand and talk, when you left the capital in a fit of anger, why didn't you think of those people? Yes, that's right, I'm the prime minister of Great Xia, but no matter how powerful I am, I'm just a mortal, I'm not a Daluo Immortal. ”

"My ability is limited, if our good emperor takes a fancy to these people, I, as a courtier, can naturally exert some strength, but our emperor only cares about fighting with his two sons, and only cares about maintaining the balance of the court, where does he care about the life and death of the people?"

Lu Xuanqing's smile was bitter and sad.

"The only thing I can do is to try to squeeze out a little bit of the silver from the treasury for the people, and I really can't get the rest.
