Chapter 538: The Son is a Hostage
The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study
Zuo Anmin was led in by Liang An, saluted and greeted, and only stood up after hearing the emperor shout for exemption.
Song Mo asked unceremoniously and directly, "What is Xie Zhan's opinion?" ”
Zuo Anmin silently sent a letter.
After Song Mo read the letter, he felt very uncomfortable. At the same time, there is a sense of frustration.
He finally made up his mind, prepared to cede interests, united with King Cheng of Jin, and planned to destroy Xie Zhan in the south first, then Lu Songli in Pingzhou, and finally deal with Xianbei. In the end, the three brothers fought a decisive battle.
Song Mo paced back and forth in the imperial study irritably. How wise and close to the demon! His methods were really expected by Xie Zhan, so he had the reminder just now.
Things are done in secret, and words are defeated.
Now that Xie Zhan has guessed his plan, if he insists on going his own way, it is possible that he will really lose his wife and lose his army.
"Your Majesty, what Lord Xie said in the letter is from the bottom of my heart." Zuo Anmin persuaded in a low voice.
Song Mo stopped and asked, "Why do I believe him?" ”
He trusted Xie Zhan so much at the beginning, and even planned to promote and reuse him, but he wanted to rebel?
Zuo Anmin saw that his eyes were full of anger, and he obviously hated the original incident.
Zuo Anmin took a deep breath and said, "Lord Xie has sent his only son and only child to Chang'an." ”
When Song Mo heard this, he looked at him fixedly.
"If the emperor doesn't believe it, you can send someone to the Weichen Mansion to confirm."
Of course, this Song Mo wanted to confirm, he looked at Liang An.
Liang An bowed and went out.
Not long after, Liang An came in, and he nodded at Song Mo.
Song Mo understood that Xie Zhan had really sent his only son to Chang'an.
The head of the family really endured the humiliation, and his son was sent to Chang'an as a hostage, so as to win the trust of the emperor, Zuo Anmin thought bitterly.
Liang An stood behind the emperor again, and he said in his heart, Xie Zhan is really ruthless as a father, the child is more than a year old, quite thin, he should have been fed medicine, and then sent to Chang'an day and night, and he was very sleepy.
In the end, Song Mo said to Zuo Anmin, "You retreat first, I need to think again." ”
Zuo Anmin responded, the letter has been delivered, and the head of the family said that as long as the emperor reads the letter and sees the little master, then there is a chance that it will come true.
Song Mo instructed Liang An, "You arrange for someone to send him out of the palace, pay attention to avoiding some people." ”
"Whoa!"
After going out, Liang An's attitude towards Zuo Anmin changed and became polite. First, Zuo Anmin may be about to turn over, and secondly, Zuo Anmin's arrival, the emperor is happy, and he should not take that medicine anymore.
After the two of them went out, only Song Mo was left in the entire imperial study.
Song Mo picked up Xie Zhan's letter again and read it.
The letter said: "...... The emperor was deceived by traitors, so that the Qin and Lu families in Pingzhou rebelled...... Wechen is really heartbroken...... Weichen has always been interested in Dali, and Qingjun's side is really a last resort...... Now that the traitorous minister has been ambushed, Weichen has always wanted to return to the court......"
After reading it, Song Mo sneered lightly.
But there was one thing in the letter that made him very concerned.
Xie Zhan said in the letter that he was willing to become a knife in his hand and sweep away all the disobedience in the United States for him.
At this time, Song Mo realized that he really needed such a knife, a smart knife.
Nandi, Xie Fu
"I don't know how Lin'er is doing at his grandfather's house?" Zhao Yutan asked worriedly while taking the hairpin hairpin on his head.
Xie Zhan replied absentmindedly.
Zhao Yutan remembered that a few days ago, a major event happened in the clan, and she needed to deal with it personally. At that time, the mother-in-law was recuperating in the Zhuangzi, and asked the personal grandmother to come back and say that she missed her grandson, and planned to take him to the Zhuangzi to live for a few days.
The child is still young, and after saying that he was three years old after speaking, he was actually just over a year old, and Zhao Yutan was not at ease.
But the child's grandmother wanted to have a child, and she happened to be busy with something, so she thought that it would be okay to send the child to the Zhuangzi to accompany his grandmother for a few days.
At that time, her husband was there, and he said that he could personally send the child to Zhuangzi, and he also went to see his mother-in-law by the way.
Zhao Yutan didn't think much about it, so she handed over the child to her husband.
Xie Zhan was immersed in his own thoughts.
I have to admit that the path taken by Lu Songli is not suitable for him, nor is it suitable for the Xie family.
Therefore, he re-planned a path for the family - to transfer flowers and trees, extract the nutrients of others, and strengthen himself.
When he raised things before, he deliberately used the name of 'Qingjun Side', firstly, to make his face look better, but also to leave a leeway for himself, and now this leeway is used.
In a letter to Song Mo, he sincerely said that what he wanted to oppose was never Song Mo, the emperor.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether Song Moxin believes it or not.
As long as Song Mo still has a trace of sanity, he will agree to his suggestions and suggestions.
Song Mo needs him, and he also needs Song Mo.
Both of them only need one step, and now that he has given this step, Song Mo will definitely borrow the slope to get off the donkey.
Removing King Jin and King Cheng, Yu Song Mo also has additional benefits, at least removing the two alternatives King Jin and King Cheng can eliminate the diversion of talents loyal to Dali.
Xie Zhan sighed, that is, at this time, Song Mo is anxious, he acts like this, I am afraid it will be difficult to have such an opportunity in the future.
And in the next situation, as long as Xianbei is not eliminated and Pingzhou is not destroyed, Xie Zhan believes that he will be safe.
At this time, Zhao Yutan had already finished freshening up and went to bed.
Xie Zhan came back to his senses, he looked at his wife, and slowly stretched out his hand towards her, after the son was sent away, the couple needed another child, the Xie family needed it, and the Zhao family also needed it.
Moreover, having a child, after Zhao learned the news, the arrival of the new child was able to comfort her and make her less sad.
……
As Xie Zhan expected, the imperial court soon made a move.
Two waves of angels led by Lin Ran and Xu Junfan set out from Chang'an with the holy decree and marched to the southwest and the East China Sea respectively.
East China Sea, Jin Wangfu
Wu Ren was in the Jin Palace, East China Sea at this time.
Today's Wu Ren, in addition to the head of the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce, also has another layer of identity - a pedestrian in Pingzhou.
The so-called pedestrian is responsible for the diplomacy of one country and one power, and his duty is to receive the envoys of various vassal states and forces, and is also responsible for going to each vassal state and each force to convey the will of the lord of his own power.
His first task after receiving the appointment and becoming a pedestrian of Pingzhou was to represent Pingzhou and go to the East China Sea to discuss the alliance with the King of Jin.
After reading the letter to him from his master, Wu Ren understood that this alliance would not be successful or not, and the most important thing was to express their attitude towards Pingzhou. At the same time, his master also pointed out the reason for his departure in the letter.
