Chapter 183: Meng Ji's Influence
What's the best thing about life?
Endless money, daily delicacies from the mountains and seas, delicious food and wine, and no need to work, you can have a group of people holding you at the wine table all day long, and there are countless beauties in the room serving you, is this wonderful?
At least in Meng Wei's opinion, Chongying Biao's good days have finally come, he can live a good life in advance that others can not dream of, this is the blessing he has cultivated for several lifetimes, the only bad thing is that he often has to eat supplements, ginseng and deer antlers, Ganoderma lucidum Tai Sui, if you don't eat it for a day, the whole person will be like being hollowed out.
This is a good day that Meng Wei can't even think of, and even an unknown street author is envious to death!!
Bao Ping was still walking up and down, constantly checking the relationship, wanting to gather a group of princes to stand up and denounce the domineering of this Meng Jibo.
"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone is a noble man who has been inherited since ancient times, and has gone through countless years and accumulation to sit in the current position, but that Meng taste, but a child from a muddy background, it is a blessing to be able to become an earl, and now the king's king is on the way, with the degree to which he is favored in front of the king, the situation is very unfavorable to us."
The princes gathered in Chongying Biao's mansion all looked at each other, they actually wanted to support Chongying Biao, as Bao Ping said, some people looked up to that Meng Jibo, and some people didn't like this Meng Jibo like an upstart from the bottom of their hearts, and they didn't like Meng Jiguo, who could override them now.
But as long as Chongying Biao gives a little bit of strength himself, even if it is just the posture of a mediocre master, they can go out and follow the bloodline of Chonghou all the way to the end, but Chongying Biao does not, and his performance is extremely clumsy, how can such a stubborn master be compared with Meng Jibo, who has a rapid upward momentum?
Not to mention, at this time, this eldest prince can still be in Chongcheng, the place where he was born, and was placed under house arrest by Meng Wei, and even talking and moving around have to rely on Baoping, a person from the Zhou Kingdom.
A native of Zhou, one of the greatest sufferers of the major princes of Northern Xinjiang.
One Bomber immediately questioned: "Are you helping us in the northern frontier?" Can a Zhou person be so kind? I see, you are just thinking about your Zhou Kingdom, and you are replaced by foolishness... The innocent prince, you can better control the northern frontier and slowly invade us. ”
"I'm from Zhou Guo, I must think about Zhou Guo, isn't this a normal thing? On the contrary, everyone, why do you want to resist my Zhou Kingdom? Look at Hexi, even if our Zhou State occupies the land, but it has no offense against the local princes and Bang Boqiu, join the arms of the Zhou State, you are still Bang Bo, you are already the lord of the country, just change to a suzerain, and follow the stronger lord of the country, you don't have to live so aggrieved anymore, don't you? ”
"From the perspective of etiquette, support the eldest prince to inherit the lord, this is a legal thing, in the future, I Zhou Kingdom will come or not, this is the king and the future Chonghou should consider things, what does it have to do with you, the sky is still blue, the color of spring is still gorgeous, our Zhou Kingdom will not change the law, let Er and others be no different from Qianshou."
The Bang Bo people below talked a lot, and their hearts were quite moved, and even more, looking at the broken ship that was about to sink in the northern Xinjiang, their minds were floating, and their hearts were moving, it seemed that it would be more convenient to go directly to Zhou Guo?
The matter in Hexi has not yet been completely spread, and they are also half-understood, judging from the current trend, it seems that it really has little to do with them.
A banquet divided the princes into three factions, and Bang Bo anxiously sweated on his forehead near the Inner and Outer Daizong Mountain Range, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to refute it.
"I heard a story in Chaoge that if you throw a frog directly into boiling water, the frog will hurt, it will struggle, it will splash people, if you throw a frog into normal water and heat it slowly, then the frog will not react until it is cooked."
There was a voice outside the door, and everyone looked at it, it was Meng Jibo, who was invited over after being reported and exposed by Uncle Tai.
In private discussions, everyone can speak freely, but when the main lord arrives, everyone seems to have lost the ability to speak, silently looking at the wine and meat on the table, silent.
"Two hundred years ago, when the Zhou State had not moved its capital to Xiqi, it was just a small land, two hundred years of vicissitudes, after the destruction of more than 20 countries, it developed into the largest Xibohou in the western territory today, everyone, this is not like the story of General Baoping boiling frogs in warm water? The western region of the past, like the northern frontier of today, as he said? ”
To tell the truth, the prosperity of a country, if there is no expansion, is only a flash in the pan after all, whether it is Baoping or Meng Wei, it is a matter of position, and it has nothing to do with right or wrong.
Everyone looked at each other, and they didn't know if they had listened to Meng Jibo's story, some people buried their heads in the meat and chewed, as if they didn't hear anything, and most of them still drank Juemei wine, bowed their hands to Baoping and left the banquet.
"Why did Meng Jibo pick this head? Do you have the heart to dominate? Want to be the new master of Northern Xinjiang? ”
Meng Ji has a playful expression, he is not the little armor who can easily be prevaricated with words and dilemma in the past, Meng Ji plays a pivotal role in the entire northern Xinjiang, in terms of strength, the whale swallows the entire northern Xinjiang may not be able to do it, but it is not a big problem to win these broken princes Bangbo, that is, logistics and talents cannot keep up, and there is no way to effectively occupy it if he wins, and he will inevitably enter the exhaustion of repeated counterinsurgency.
Meng Wei is unwilling to have too many verbal battles with this person, debate can't convince anyone, and all the results depend on strength and swords and guns after all.
"Wei Hu, send him out of Chongcheng, let him go back and forth from where."
"Uncle Meng Ji, I am the guest of honor of the eldest prince, and I am the general of the town hall of the Zhou State, dare to insult me?"
Meng Wei ignored Bao Ping's roar, looked sideways at Yutai Yu, and asked gently, "How many armor soldiers did Brother Yu bring over this time?" ”
"It's not too much, three thousand armor soldiers are with you."
"Well, it's good, it's basically enough. Do you think that our own people in northern Xinjiang are deliberating, and there is always an outsider who is noisy here, is it a little inappropriate? ”
Taiyu stroked his beard and smiled, looking quite moved, and said lightly: "I'm not afraid that others are afraid of him, Zhou Guo is in the westernmost place, and my Lantai Port is a port close to the North Sea, Zhou Guo wants to retaliate against me, so it can't be the most thing that spans the whole world?" If the flies themselves are not interested and want to fish in troubled waters, the favorite thing of the armor of the Lantai family is to support justice! ”
"It's good, then please trouble Uncle Tai to stab me with a sword, stab it accurately, and just go up to the arm."
“???”
The princes and uncles were stunned, and they all looked at the earl in front of them in disbelief who pulled out the sword of the Taiyu and didn't understand his crazy words.
"Assassinate me, I won't blame you, after the assassination, we will kill Baoping and sacrifice to the sky, and then send the warriors of the Zhou Kingdom he brought to Liaodong to plant bitter vegetables, we can also hold Xibohou accountable by the way, why do you want to send assassins to poison first, and then assassinate, to embarrass with Benbo."
Bao Ping's face flushed, and he pointed at Meng Wei angrily and shouted: "Why are you so vicious, when have I poisoned and assassinated you?" ”
"Didn't you? Don't pretend, the eldest prince has been recruited, what's the use of you still talking about this here, besides, isn't your eldest son, Bo Yi, not dead? I admit that what Biao did was a little wrong, but it was also your Hou Ye who personally sent Biao back, and now it is your Hou Ye who has to get an inch, what? If you can use the same means, I can't use it? ”
"Don't think that the repeated wars in Northern Xinjiang are really afraid of your Zhou Kingdom!"
After that, Meng Wei pushed open the door, and it was the black armor elite of Chongcheng standing outside the door, as well as the princes who were close to and close to Meng Ji, Meng Wei pointed to the armor outside the house and asked loudly.
"Zhou Guo deceived people too much, taking advantage of the loss of the male lord in my northern Xinjiang, again and again, stirring up the wind and rain, messing up the unity of my northern Xinjiang, all warriors, dare to step on the west of the river with me, recapture our homeland, and then Chen Bing Xiqi, ask Xibohou, why do you want to bully my northern Xinjiang and take advantage of the danger of others?"
"Ladies and gentlemen, how many can each city-state produce?"
The crowd in the audience was boiling, only to hear Mei Wu take the lead in the queue and shouted: "Chongguo can raise the power of the country, and wear 150,000 people." ”
"The platform can produce 50,000!"
"Order the branch country to pay 30,000!"
"The country of Tao is out of 10,000!"
“……”
Bao Ping felt a chill in his heart, he didn't understand why such a person from a clay leg would get the support of so many nobles, but he probably understood something from what Taiyu said.
Zhou Guo is far away and can't give these people any benefits, but Meng Jiguo is in the northern Xinjiang, just in the hinterland, if anyone dares to disobey him, he can use this as an excuse to find trouble the next day.
"General Baoping, I, Meng Jiguo, can also raise an army of 150,000, I can represent Meng Ji and Chongguo, what about you? Can you take the war book for your Xibohou? Chaoge has a bumper harvest this year, and I will be shy to ask the king to borrow some grain and grass, can I send this nearly 400,000 army to Xiqi City? ”
"Do you know how Dongyi lost?"
Bao Ping opened his mouth wide, but he didn't know how to speak, so he had to show a hint of a sneer: "It's funny, I'm just a passer-by, since Gongzi Biao has been sent to Chongcheng safely, and the mission in Xia has been successfully completed, I'll go back to Xiqi, don't disturb you to talk about things, and say goodbye!" ”
Seeing that the princes around him who had decided to take refuge were intent on staying, Bao Ping immediately quickened his pace, and kept shouting as he walked: "Oh, the wife at home is about to give birth, don't keep it, don't keep it, I have to go back to Xiqi quickly." ”
Looking at Bao Ping who fled in the wilderness, Meng Wei sneered in his heart, he was a reasonable person, if it wasn't for others who were unreasonable, he wouldn't have played Laipi's tricks, and then Meng Wei bowed down and thanked the princes who were pulled over to help the war.
It's just a scare and a scare, can it really be beaten? His base camp is in Daizong, and he ran over to fight with Zhou Guo, so he couldn't help but accumulate four years of old foundation, I am afraid that he will not be wiped out directly, and he will continue to owe foreign debts, and he will not be able to eat the territory he has beaten down.
Just like Zhou Guo will not fight Taiwan Port, an enclave, no matter how delicious it is, is chicken ribs, and reckless use of troops will only interrupt the rhythm of recuperation.
Without the interference of outsiders, Meng Wei also began to prepare for the funeral, preparing to send Chonghou on his last journey.
Just when the princes were preparing to raise their spirits to bury Chonghou, the king who had been hurrying all the way finally arrived in Chongcheng, which he had not been in for a long time.
When Meng Wei saw the lord of the great merchant again, the burly and tall man looked tired and tired, and the whole person was indescribably depressed, as if he had just suffered a defeat and had cederated the land, and his whole body exuded an aura of not being approached.
Di Xin didn't pay attention to the princes of Northern Xinjiang who came forward to greet him, nor did he look at Meng Wei more, but took heavy steps and slowly walked to Chonghou Hu's coffin.
Smelling the faint rotten smell on the tip of his nose, there was a fire in Di Xin's eyes, but he didn't know who to be angry at with this resentment, so he could only kick on the beam, shaking the whole room with dust and a little smoky.
"Where did Ying Biao go?"
At this time, Meng Wei stepped forward and told Di Xin what happened to him when he came to Chongchenghou.
Di Xin frowned, looked at Meng Wei with some gloom, and asked in a low voice, "Are you sure you just want to keep Chonghou's bloodline, and not take the opportunity to envelop the northern frontier and find a rank for yourself?" ”
"Why did the king say this? Chonghou treats me like a parent, Meng Wei only has admiration for Chonghou, I really want to kill this bastard with a knife, but Chongying Biao is carrying the blood of Chong's family, it is the blood of Chonghou, I would rather endure the nausea in my heart, let him keep giving birth to children, and never want to hurt him for Chonghou's inheritance. If I want to get involved in Chongguo, why bother, as long as I kill Chongying Biao, Chongguo will naturally collapse like gravel, and the northern Xinjiang will be in chaos, wouldn't it be better for me to fish in troubled waters? ”
Di Xin nodded, and then asked, "Since you have no intention, why do you want to mobilize the princes of Northern Xinjiang without authorization and stir up relations between them and the Zhou State?" ”
Meng Wei took a deep breath and looked at the princes behind him, feeling low in his heart.
It is not surprising that the king can know this, but he doesn't know which brother is so eager to make a small report and give him eye medicine.
"King, there are many people here, it's not a place to talk about your heart, let's bury Chonghou first, and wait for this matter, Meng Weizi will personally give you a reasonable explanation!"
Speaking of this, Di Xin didn't say much, he had enough trust in Meng Wei, and the many inquiries were just someone chewing the root of his tongue, and he naturally had his own cognition in his heart about the distance of the relationship.
Di Xin looked at his good brother who was lying in the coffin calmly, he couldn't calm down for a long time with his eyes closed, the king was silent, and the others naturally didn't say much.
After a long time, Di Xin seemed to be a little annoyed and impatient, and waved his hand irritably, signaling to the spirit.
"You go and send it, I won't go, I'll just sit here for a while."
"King!!"
"Go, don't worry about Lone, Lone is afraid that he won't be able to control the anger in his heart, so he can't help but drag the tiger out and whip him out, let Lone be quiet, just be quiet."
