Chapter 873: Two Lobbyists in Front of the Door
The first meeting between the young people belonging to the two countries did not meet their expectations, and although Shao Dianzhi lowered his posture, Shao Dianyong did not give him the right to cede territory, and Ji Man's request was rejected by him on the spot.
This time, his country's execution was not very pleasant, but Shao Dianzhi was not depressed.
"Of course I can't agree to Ji Man's request, I believe that the descendants of the fourth grandfather will not agree, at least I can be sure that my country will not openly support the people of Zhenjing City. He said to his subordinates.
Before he went out, he had a wise mind to offer advice, and the purpose of this trip was not necessarily to gain the support of his own country, but the key was to lure his own country to intervene in the struggle for the throne of Shaodian State. With a behemoth to contain the central government, the weak Prince of Yinsha has the opportunity to slowly grow his power.
Ding Kui arrived in Zhenjing with the eldest princess, only to find that the Shaodian Kingdom was in chaos, and even if he was full of history books, he couldn't find a suitable dynasty to compare the status quo.
Ochre Kui suddenly appeared in Haishan Prefecture, used the coercion of the Eighteenth Army Corps, controlled the Nineteenth Army Corps, waved his army to the state city, and echoed Yang Chao, the former commander of the Military Command Department, in a high-profile manner.
Mu Shaodian of Xihai Prefecture claimed to support Prince Yinsha's accession to the throne, and ordered the Fifth and Sixth Army Corps stationed in the state to obey Yang Chao's command, but the two corps behaved very differently, the Fifth Army Corps was rapidly moving towards the border of Wang Zhou, and the Sixth Army Corps gathered its troops in place, obviously with different ideas.
Due to the Xuanyuan family's open neutrality, the local legions of Linhai Prefecture did not attack the large camp of the Western Sea Theater, but moved towards the eastern border, and the 7th and 11th legions assembled in the large camp were completely controlled by Yang Chao, and the commanders of the corps, Shi Shi and Zhai Yu, pledged their allegiance to Shaodianyong.
The situation in Hailin Prefecture was a little more complicated, the 16th Army swore allegiance to the capital city government, and was ordered to return to the state city and divide the troops to meet the nobles who supported the capital government, and fought with the 12th Army Corps.
The four western coastal states were roughly divided into two factions, one supporting the Prince of Yinsha and the other supporting the capital government, all of which were trying to find ways to lean into the camp of the same faction and resolutely resist the invasion of the enemy camp, igniting hundreds of fires of war large and small.
The attitude of the two eastern states was clear, and they unanimously obeyed the rule of Zhenjing City and severely crusaded against Prince Yinsha and his party, but there was an accident in the Yangyuan Prefecture War Zone. The 10th Army Corps, which had not yet withdrawn from the Cao State, was ambushed, and the Cao Army sent its elite to besiege it, and the 10th Army Corps alone could not support most of the casualties, and if it were not for the timely rescue of the 22nd Army Corps, it was very likely that the whole army would be annihilated.
Zhongwangzhou was the most chaotic, although only the Yang family rebelled among the five major princes, but the four counties of Changyi County, Shiqiao County, Jixi County and Nanguo County openly surrendered to the Yang family, plus Yongfeng County and Dongjin County, which were originally attached to the Yang family, a total of seven counties rebelled against the capital government.
Coincidentally, these seven counties were able to connect together and connect to Linhai Prefecture, and also held control of a local legion, Shao Dianjian did not dare to act rashly and did not immediately put down the rebellion.
The capital city with a guardian is not as calm as it seems on the surface, the first to attack is Wei Guogong, Gongsun Da thinks that Shaodian Yong is also a candidate for the throne, since the three princes of the first king are too young, why can't they consider letting Prince Yinsha inherit the throne. His statement was agreed by some courtiers, who were all descendants of King Bear, and whoever had the ability was eligible to inherit the throne. However, under the suppression of the bigwigs of the two governments and the two courts, the mainstream voice is still discussing which little prince to enthrone.
Speaking of princes, we have to mention their biological mother and their mother's family.
The three imprisoned concubines could not be contacted, and there were still people in the Tang family, the Tangtai family and the Nangong family in the capital, and they ran around to win over the ministers who were influential in the court, and tried every means to persuade the ministers to support their princes.
Before Ding Kui entered his door, he was stopped in front of two groups of people.
"How did you know that I was back today?"
"I've seen the horses, and I'm courteous. ”
The leaders of the two groups were Tan Tai Jin and Nangong Ping.
Tan Tai Jin glanced at the carriage behind Ding Kui, and hurriedly said: "I haven't seen the princess's cousin for many days, and I miss it very much in my heart, I wonder if I can talk to the princess's cousin?"
Oh, this is here to play the family card, a princess cousin, but it also makes sense, Luan'er is the only adult child of the first king, and no one can ignore her existence, let alone a person who is related by blood.
"Nangong Gongzi wait a minute. Ding Kui pressed Nangong Ping, who wanted to speak, and turned back to ask his wife in the carriage, "Madam, what do you think?"
"Let my cousin go to the backyard with the main palace. After Shaodianluan finished speaking, he knocked on the window of the car and motioned for the carriage to drive into the Protectorate Mansion.
Taijin looked happy and followed closely behind the carriage.
"It's my surprise that you can come here, it should have taken a lot of effort, right?" Ding Kui patted Nangong Ping's shoulder. He had a crush on the young man.
Nangong Ping smiled bitterly: "The family is doing their best, and the younger brother is forced to come." He knew very well that he was burdened with an impossible task, no matter from which angle he looked at, it was impossible for Ding Kui to abandon the Shaodian seal and support Nangong Ru's son.
"Go in and talk. Ding Kui smiled slightly to show understanding.
He arranged for Nangong to be hired to the side hall to talk, and the representative of Nangong's family officially came to visit, so he had to receive him according to the number of courtesies, and the result of the negotiation was another matter.
"The strength of the Nangong family is not as good as the Shantai family, the little prince can also treat the princess as a sister, as long as you support the Nangong family now, we can give no less than the Shantai family." "Nangong Ping did not forget the mission he carried, and he still worked hard.
"I don't believe you when you say that, the problem is that the Ding family has an ancestral precept that doesn't allow me to interfere! I don't care what the princess will do. She must defend her brother, and I can't stop it, so it can't be measured by interests. If my father is here, I may want to see Prince Yinsha succeed to the throne. The matter of erecting a new king is too deep, and to be honest, I don't want to be involved. "Ding Kui's Tai Chi is playing steadily, but he refuses to reveal his wishes.
The water of Shaodian Country was stirred up too much, it was even more chaotic than the dispute between the eldest prince and the fourth prince back then, the past did not forget the teacher of the future, he did not forget what happened to his grandfather, and he was extremely cautious in the face of the current situation.
"The princess knows a little bit about her temperament, and it is probably impossible to support other princes, which my father can understand. Hey, the younger brother is a member of the Nangong family, you should do your best for the family, if you have any presumptuousness, I hope you understand. "Disappointed, Nangong did not forget to get close to Ding Kui.
"Hahaha, what's the presumptuousness! A man must be responsible, no need to be ambiguous in what position he stands on, no need to be ambiguous! Even if he turns against each other in the future, I respect you as a man!" Ding Kui's eyes showed appreciation.
"That's it, even if you go back and be scolded, the junior brother will tell you about the Tang family's conspiracy. Nangong seems to have made a lot of determination.
