There are many people in the world's scholar class, big families, and Haoqiang who think that this time the movement to overthrow the emperor was originally planned by Qin Xianao to seize the throne for him, but today Qin Xianao published such an article in the newspaper.

"The meat is in your mouth, but you don't eat it?"

"If you gave up, why did you plan this movement in the first place?"

"Master, I can only say that I can't see through the actions of the master, is he buying people's hearts, but anyone in the world can buy them, but he doesn't need to buy people's hearts anymore, but it's really for the people...... The ...... who had planned to overthrow the emperor before"

Most of the scholars class, big families, big heroes, and martial arts circles have their own ideas, and the more such people are, the more influenced by the martial arts world, Cihang Jingzhai, and the Confucian Alliance, and they don't have much affection for Qin Xianao.

The common people praised Qin Xianao as the reincarnation of a saint, they were quite disappreciative in their hearts, and some of them saw that Qin Xianao was a hero, with unfathomable wisdom and vicious means, and he was a hero with many advantages such as Guo Jia, the poisoner Jia Xu, and Wolong Kong Ming in the Three Kingdoms.

Such a hero, like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, even if he thinks about the common people, he has another purpose, and it is impossible to be really kind-hearted and reincarnate like a saint.

But this time...... They were all stunned.

In "The Theory of the United Front", Qin Xianao did explain why he resigned from the throne, but these explanations were believed by the common people, and they would never believe it.

Of course, the ordinary scholars, ordinary families, and ordinary gentry in the scholar class are still close to the general thinking of the common people, so although they also have doubts about Qin Xianao's strange concession, they generally agree with Qin Xianao's explanation in "The Theory of the United Front", thinking that Qin Xianao gave in for the sake of the common people.

The influence of these scholars among the people was enormous, so that-

"O saint!"

"Qin Gongzi is a real moral man!

"Although Qin Gongzi has some shortcomings, he is also arrogant and selfish. But in major matters, we are not confused, and in major matters, we focus on the common people. ”

"The temptation to resign to be the founding monarch must be extraordinary, and Gongzi Qin is a true saint!"

"Such a person, not invited to be our son of heaven, is a great loss to the common people. It's a pity ......"

......

The movement that affected the entire Great Song Dynasty to overthrow the emperor has pushed Qin Xianao's fame to an unimaginable height, in this case, it is very difficult for Qin Xianao's favorability among the people to go further, and it is normal to decline slowly, but as soon as this article came out, everything changed.

"I have decided, from now on to become a member of the Xinhua Party!"

"I also joined the Xinhua Party!"

"Go to Lingnan, you must go to Lingnan, I want to help Qin Gongzi build Lingnan!"

......

I don't know how many people announced that they would join the Xinhua Party after reading this article. I don't know how many hot-blooded young people are clamoring to go to Lingnan to follow Qin Xianao, of course, more ordinary people are moving, they are also waiting, waiting for the reaction of the imperial court, waiting for the reaction of the family army, and the reaction of the army of the new dynasty.

In a large private house in Bianliang.

"It has been fully ascertained that the losses suffered by the newspaper are not exaggerated. Gao Tao's cold gaze swept over the ministers below, "And the army is in extreme difficulty right now. There was a shortage of food in the army, and the morale of the army was shattered. If it weren't for the fact that he was extremely good at controlling the army, there would have been few people left, but the 180,000 army is now only 50,000. ”

"Fifty thousand?"

Sima Guang, Lu Gong, Wen Yanbo, Han Zhongyan...... The ministers all had calm faces, and the atmosphere in the entire hall was extremely depressing.

When the army was dispatched, everyone was very excited. thought he was saved, after all, he was a famous general who was often victorious and undefeated, and even the court was afraid of him, so he knew that he was messing around again and again, and he turned a blind eye.

Plantation sent troops. What is the hastily formed anti-king soldiers and horses, and they are not defeated by the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.

But the undefeated seed man met Qin Xianao, and this matter was ......

"If a general fails, there are ten defeats. Sima Guang said in a deep voice, "First, the chaotic people are all over the world, Qin Xian is proud to report the bewitchment, and the heart of the seed army is unstable, but it is forcibly suppressed by the seed family; Second, the seed army is good at fighting with the Western Xia, and has never attacked the city hard, and it is not good at siege warfare, but this time it has to attack the city again and again, and because of the long-distance attack, its intention is not to capture a city or a place, so there is no good siege equipment, but in order to seize grain and grass, it must attack the city, so it has suffered heavy losses. 3. The opponent encountered was not a regular soldier, but an ordinary person, so the momentum of the attack was weakened by three points......"

"Prime Minister. Gao Tao interrupted, "At this time, it is useless to discuss the reasons for the defeat of Chongge, but it is that Chongge and others have led the Western Xia and Liao into our territory, and this matter is extremely dangerous. ”

Silent!

One by one, they bowed their heads and were silent, it was easy to invite God and difficult to send God, not to mention that Western Xia and Liao would come to rob the tiger and wolf themselves if they were not invited?

"This battle is either Qin Xian's victory, or the victory of Western Xia and Liao, there can be no other exceptions. A voice sounded slowly.

"Lu Xiang......" The face of the hall is gray, Lu Gong is not easy to export, but an exit is often the closest to the right, Gao Tao looked at Sima Guang, Sima Guang sighed lowly: "Lure the wolf into the room, can the sheep still live well?" Xixia and Liao are all wolves, these two wolves can't be stopped by the imperial court, they can only rely on Qin Xianao...... Huh?" Sima Guang looked at the door, and everyone also looked over, and there was a person standing at the door.

"Come in!"

"Yes!" Immediately, the middle-aged man dressed as an ordinary businessman trotted in.

"In the newspaper, Qin Xian Ao Dengwen said that he did not sit on the dragon chair. The middle-aged man thought about the news with irrepressible excitement in his eyes, and his face was flushed with red light, and he was full of joy.

Everyone frowned, but they were all big people, so it was naturally impossible to deal with this kind of small person who delivered the news, not to mention that it was the high-ranking imperial guards who delivered the news.

"Queen Mother, the latest newspaper published an article by Qin Xianao. The middle-aged man's voice was full of excitement.

Gao Tao's face was slightly gloomy, and everyone in the entire hall stopped breathing slightly, Qin Xianao posted articles in the newspaper, every time it was a nightmare for them.

"Present it. Gao gushed deeply.

"Yes!" Immediately, a eunuch stepped forward to take the paper and was about to present it to Gao Taotao, who waved his hand, "Let everyone take a look." ”

"Yes!" the eunuch unfolded the paper and hung it on the wall.

"The theory of the united front?"

"What other fronts are being united? ”

pinched their noses and looked at them one by one, and the more they looked at it, the more disgusting they became, especially when they saw Qin Xianao's text saying, 'I have tears in my eyes, I know, our country is saved!'

The article goes on to say that some people are wrong and confused, and some people are wrong and incorrigible, and it is necessary to unite all forces and drive out the aggressor. When it comes to ruling the country, we must not mess around, we must lower our stature, and proceed from practice. When it comes to economic and political reform, we must be cautious and resolute, and we must pay attention to methods.

......

Until-

"If the Song court is willing to agree to the following requests, I, Qin Xianao, am willing to give up being the father of the country and go to the barren land of Lingnan......"

Rumble!

Sima Guang was stunned!

"What, are you still willing to go to Lingnan?" Lu Gongzhu rushed up a few steps, as if to read the words clearly.

"He said he was willing to take a step back?" Gao Tao's lips trembled slightly.

"Qin Xianao said that he wanted to take a step back and go to Lingnan ......"

They were all excited, their eyes were shining with crystal light, and the sound of breathing in the entire lobby was extremely clear to their ears.

The article on the wall, how disgusting and uncomfortable everyone looked at it before, at this moment, the eyes seemed to be glued to the paper, and even after reading it, I read the article again, especially the part that was willing to back down.

"Queen Mother, congratulations!"

Lu Gong spoke.

"Queen Mother, great joy, great joy!"

"Ancestors bless, heaven bless!"

"Queen Mother, Qin Xianao proposed to divide the world into three parts, although there are losses, but the situation is like this, this is already very good, after all, the name of Song does not need to be changed. Now that the Western Xia and Liao have invaded, if they don't stop the enemy's footsteps in time, the Great Song Dynasty will die, which is already the best. ”

One by one, even the excited mouths, some ministers even feared Gao Taotao's opposition, and began to persuade: "My imperial army can't count on it, and I can't even clean up a few chaotic people, can we still count on it?" So in the end, it must be the Western Xia, the Liao State and the chaotic people who are fighting, in this way, either the Western Xia and the Liao State will carve up my Great Song Dynasty, or our Great Song Dynasty will win a miserable victory, but the chaotic people will win a tragic victory, and we will not get this world." ”

"Yes, in a world where the people are struggling to make a living, we get it, and it is difficult to keep it for a long time. ”

"The opportunity must not be lost, the time will not come again, the first few times Qin Xianao wanted to make peace, it was because our hearts were too big, and the opportunity was wasted, if it was wasted this time, then it would really be impossible to have such a good opportunity again. ”

......

Gao Tao squinted, her face was flushed, she quietly listened to everyone's opinions, and finally looked at Sima Guang: "Prime Minister, tell me, what should I do?"

Sima Guang's face retreated a lot of excitement at this time.

"Queen Mother, if this letter is true, it is really a great thing, but ......" Sima Guang said in a deep voice, "In this letter, Qin Xianao is going to Lingnan, which is a little wrong." Qin Xianao has such a powerful intelligence agency as a newspaper, it is impossible for him not to know what has become of chaos in Lingnan now, why do he still want to go to Lingnan?"

"What is the chaos in Lingnan?"

Excited people seem to have been poured a basin of cold water, even if Qin Xianao returns the whole world to them now, they will have a headache, this headache is mainly two parts, one is how to hold the remaining cities in the north, not to be broken by the Western Xia and Liao, and the other is the south, since the people have fallen to the queen, although the people in other parts of the Great Song Dynasty have rioted and paraded, the government has been completely paralyzed, compared with Lingnan, it is a small thing.

The turmoil in Lingnan was not only aimed at the smashing of the government, but also spread like a fire to the mountains, all the landlords, the gentry, the rich -- they were engaged in the division of land and the local tyrants! )
