Liangshan Town.

The Chinese New Year is very lively, and people from a radius of 100 miles will come to Liangshan Town to see the lanterns and feel the joy of the next New Year's Festival.

And the long-rumored matter of recruiting peace is naturally a round of topics.

"What King Qi? Brother Sun Lei took us Liangshan and destroyed the Liao Kingdom! What the eight generations of the Zhao family have not been able to do, we have done it, how can we only be crowned kings! ”

"Yes, my son can be in the Liangshan army, if King Sun is only king, won't my son have nothing to do with a big soldier? It's better to be happy in Liangshanbo! ”

"This is right, Brother Sun Lei is also the king in Liangshan, why go to Tokyo to be the king? How jolly it is here! ”

The rumors on Liangshan's side soon reversed, many people have a close relationship with Liangshan, if according to the gossip from Tokyo, these ordinary people will not get anything, but will return to the oppressive life of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the past.

There are more and more voices of opposition, everyone has their own plans, even if it is just a common person who lives honestly under the rule of Liangshan, he will oppose Zhao'an because of his own interests.

The court did not control the rumors, and Liangshan did not control the rumors, and the rumors became the affairs of the people, and had nothing to do with the court and Liangshan.

"Strategist, isn't this a little slower?"

In the Broken Gold Pavilion, Sun Lei looked at the flying snow and said.

"Brother, too strong a reaction will only backfire, you have to deal with the rumors coldly, and then reverse from the very end, reversing black and white is this operation!"

Wen Huanzhang said with a smile.

Rumors stop at the wise, but rumors also begin with the wise, and the most influential rumors are ordinary people at the bottom.

It's easy to expose flaws when you go against smart people.

But the ordinary people at the bottom are different, the rumors have the greatest impact on them, the three of them become tigers, no one will investigate the truth or falsehood, anyway, they will come with their mouths open, and they will not suffer if they are wrong.

Cui Jing is the easiest to take advantage of the people at the bottom, so he came to this trick, but he didn't seem to think that no matter how much benefit he gave Liang Shan, the people under Liang Shan would not get anything.

And it is impossible to buy off all the people under Liangshan's rule, exacting taxes and exploiting the people, this is the foundation of the imperial court, and if you want the court with vested interests to give up these, isn't it the life of the hundred officials of the imperial court and Zhao Ji.

"How's it going?"

Sun Lei asked again.

"Brother, don't worry, I'll leave it to Wu Yong!"

Wen Huanzhang said with a smile, he is not good at ending this matter directly, he can coordinate the overall situation behind the scenes, as for "charging into battle", Wu Yong is a very suitable candidate.

"Haha, this guy is a good choice!"

Sun Lei said with a smile, Wu Yong is really an expert in doing this.

……

In a hotel in Liangshan Town, the snow is falling heavily, pedestrians and business travelers can't hurry, the hotel is full of diners, a table is boiling hot pot, hot wine, people from the south and north are smiling and sitting around the table, talking about interesting things on the road.

"I heard that King Sun Lei of Liangshanbo is going to recruit An!"

A man with an unfamiliar accent spoke.

"It's been spread all over the world a long time ago, I want to be crowned a king, and I want to marry a princess!"

The man at the table next to him spoke.

"If that's the case, we won't be able to come to Shandong in the future!"

The merchants who passed by sighed.

Because of the existence of Liangshanbo in Shandong, the public security has become excellent, and as long as the businessmen here pay the protection fee, they don't have to worry about any bandits and bandits, and they don't have to worry about encountering black shops even if they live in the hotel.

Moreover, there are many types of goods in Liangshan Town, and the price is fair, so there is no bullying for children, and there is no need to worry about the government's exploitation.

These are very attractive to businessmen who go south and north, and the favorite of ordinary businessmen is the way of Qingping, although there can be huge profits in chaos, but it is hard enough.

"Your news is out of date!"

A voice sounded from the corner, and Wu in a brown robe said with a smile.

"This brother has the latest news?"

Everyone is looking at Wu Yong, and now this messy news is flying all over the sky, and they don't know if that sentence is true and which sentence is false.

"Of course, one of my brothers was on an errand in the Liangshan army, and last year it was with King Sun who destroyed the Liao Kingdom in the north!"

Wu said with an oath.

"Disrespectful! Disrespectful! ”

As soon as everyone heard Wu Yong's words, they all hugged their fists and became polite, all the foreign merchants in this hotel knew not much about Liangshanbo, and they heard that Wu Yong knew Liangshan, where did they dare to slack off.

"King Sun didn't agree to Zhao'an at all, what are the princes of all districts? Isn't it the king of our Liangshan now? ”

Wu Yong said with a disdainful face.

"But I heard that I want to marry the princess to King Sun! I passed by Tokyo two years ago, and I heard that the princess was a national color and a fragrance! ”

Someone spoke again.

"Look at your little talent, what is a little princess? You don't know, the capital of the Liao Kingdom was served by Liangshan, and the princess and princess of the Liao Kingdom don't know how much they caught? It's just that you, who are uninformed, can't walk when you hear the word princess! Don't worry, the princess doesn't look down on you! ”

Wu glanced at the man who spoke with disdain.

"Haha!"

Everyone laughed, and when Wu said this, they suddenly became enlightened.

For ordinary people, the princess is an unattainable golden branch and jade leaf, but for Sun Lei, isn't the princess the daughter of an ordinary family, that is, the emperor wants to marry, so it depends on whether Sun Lei agrees, maybe he can't look down on it at all?

"Brother, since King Sun doesn't want to recruit An, why is it spreading everywhere!"

After laughing, everyone asked again, they all came to Liangshan Town to buy goods, and then went back to their hometown to sell, the situation in Liangshan determines whether they can continue to do business and make money in the future, which is very important to them.

"King Sun is not very satisfied with the prince, King Sun destroyed the Liao State, according to the rules, he should be the emperor of the Liao State now, and the Zhao official family should be a brother!"

Wu lowered his voice, as if to say confidential.

Those diners immediately pricked up their ears, and even the shopkeeper and the shopkeeper also came over.

"Yes, King Sun destroyed the Liao State, that is the emperor......"

Someone answered, but they didn't dare to answer halfway through.

There are no two days in the country, there are no two kings in the sky, how can one country have two emperors?

"That's going to start!"

Someone said, then there is only one way to fight.

"It's not that there is no way, King Sun doesn't want to kill his own people, so he thought of a compromise solution, just like the Tang Dynasty, the two saints are in the dynasty."

Wu Yong said.

"The two saints are husband and wife, ......"

Some Central Plains businessmen said that Tang Gaozong and Wu Zetian were husband and wife.

"You can't say that, Zhao Guan's family still calls the Liao lord brothers! Now that King Sun has destroyed the Liao Kingdom, hasn't he also become brothers with the Zhao official family? So much between brothers? ”

Someone retorted.

"If you don't have to go to war, that's great news!"

Many of them said that they were satisfied with their current life and did not want war to break out.
