Chapter 378 Believe me(1/2)
Tianze can use his brain, and Luo Yan is very pleased.
But when Tianze told the matter, Luo Yan was a little helpless. Obviously, Tianze had not changed much from before. He was still the wilderness man who couldn't read a word. He could know something like this in his heart. He could even complain to others and make small moves behind his back, but when he said it in front of Luo Yan, he really didn't know how to evaluate him.
Isn’t Tianze afraid of changing his own personal support?
Once the person is replaced, what's the use of Tianze keeping it? This is completely a way to die.
Well, Tianze has always been like this. He would rather die than surrender. He is a typical person who is soft and not hard, and does not know what tactfulness is. As for scheming, let alone. If he is a little scheming and has enough brains, he will not be imprisoned in the dungeon by Bai Yifei for more than ten years.
Thinking so in my heart, it is another matter on the surface.
Luo Yan shook his head, sighed softly, and began to show his misery: "Tell me the truth, today is different from the past. I didn't have this idea when I sent you to Baiyue. At least I really didn't have it at that time, but now, the situation is different. Qin is about to unify the world. Once the world returns to one another, the land of Baiyue will inevitably border the territory of Qin. Qin's attitude towards Baiyue will naturally change.
Although I am an important official of Qin, I have no choice but to make decisions about many things.
After all, I am just a minister, not the King of Qin.
What's more, there are ministers in Qin who are not in harmony with me, so I won't talk about Changping Jun in the past, and the current Prime Minister Li Si also has a dispute with me.
He proposed the policy on the Land of Baiyue. Qin did not need a bad neighbor, so his attitude towards the Land of Baiyue was very obvious. Qin would inevitably send troops to Baiyue in the future. This is an established fact.
This matter cannot be done by me or you.
Major events are unstoppable, you can only go with the flow, do you understand?"
At the end of his speech, Luo Yan was already sincere and almost squeezed out two tears to express his feelings.
"Li Si? Isn't he yours?"
Tianze's eyes flashed for a moment, he stared at Luo Yan suspiciously, and asked back.
You really believe it... Luo Yan just said it casually, but he never expected Tianze to really believe it. He said these words to others in Zhongyuan. I guess no one believes Luo Yan. As long as he has some understanding of Luo Yan, Luo Yan is also happy to see such a "simple" Tianze.
I was immediately immersed in the play.
"Sometimes the one who hurts you the most is always the people around you. The position of the prime minister of Qin is below one person and above ten thousand people. Who can ignore it? The person who covet this position is unknown, alas~"
Luo Yan sighed and said slowly:
"This position should be mine, but I missed the chess and was taken away by the people around me."
Tianze and the corpse-expressing demon were silent. Looking at the sad Luo Yan, he didn't know what to say for a moment, and he didn't have too much doubt about Luo Yan's words. After all, in their minds, the people of the Central Plains always seemed to be like this, and they liked to fight for power and profit.
Mo Ya, who was standing aside, looked at the two Baiyue "honest people" opposite, sighed in his heart, and felt a little sympathetic to Tianze. One thing to say, Tianze can't even play Bai Yifei, how could he play Luo Yan? I don't know that people who play politics are hearts?
What's more, a bad guy like Luo Yan should not be too skilled in trumping the blame and fooling people, but he pretends to be honest and innocent.
Well, Tianze and the corpse-expressing demon were all in Baiyue during this period. They had not met Luo Yan for several years, so naturally they didn't know what Luo Yan did behind his back.
Tianze pondered for a moment, his ferocious expression eased a little, and gave him his advice: "You can choose to kill him. The best way to solve the problem is to solve the person who created the problem."
Kill him, who will work for me? Rely on you?
Luo Yan complained in his heart, but there was a wry smile on his lips and said, "Murder? Do you think killing can solve the problem? Things have happened. My killing him will only make the King of Qin afraid and distrust me even more. No king likes uncontrollable subjects, let alone the King of Qin is still an ambitious monarch today.
If I do this, he doesn't need evidence and will inevitably attack me next. In recent years, I have been shackled by all sides and my power is not as good as before.
Do you think I have lived a happy life in Qin?
If it is really good, why should I come to see you in person this time? I'll just send someone to inform you.
Alas, I'm very idle now. Do you understand what this sentence means?
The dignified Marquis of Liyang, the Grand Tutor of Qin, was idle in the process of Qin destroying the six kingdoms, and even had the leisure to visit Baiyue, haha~”
Luo Yan couldn't help but smiled self-deprecatingly, for a while.
Mo Ya couldn't help but glance at Luo Yan, the immediate boss. If he hadn't known the truth, he would have almost believed it.
This... is indeed unreasonable.
Tianze's heart sank, looked at Luo Yan who was "depressed", frowned and comforted: "Why do you need this? If you have the chance, you will fight back."
"It's not that easy. Power struggle is not about fighting with others, it's all about invisible knives. This round I was betrayed by my own people, and many secret things were stabbed to the King of Qin, including funding you. I have invested continuously over the years. This amount is not a small number. I personally don't have so much money. I also misappropriated the Qin treasury.
My original intention is to wait for you to be self-sufficient, and then take advantage of the advantages of Baiyue Land to make up for this account. In the future, you will become the king of Baiyue. Maybe you can consolidate my power. But you are a bottomless pit on your side. You are not good at managing and managing, so you can only provide uninterrupted subsidies..."
Speaking of this.
Tianze and the Demon of the Corpse Exorcism were also a little embarrassed. Although they didn't want to admit it, they had indeed reached out to Luo Yan for money and food over the years, and were then taken over by Chu State.
Speaking of it carefully, they are indeed a little sorry for Luo Yan's unconditional funding.
Luo Yan has never asked them to do anything over the years. They have always been stocking them and have never been restrained. As for the materials, money and food they sponsor, they have never been harsh. By counting this, they are a little sorry for Luo Yan.
The main reason is that they have always felt that Luo Yan has other thoughts, so they have never faced this problem.
Now that Luo Yan is guided a little, it feels different.
It seems they are really incompetent.
"Forget it, let's not talk about these things for now. If you hadn't lost tens of thousands of troops this time, this matter was even more exposed to the King of Qin. How could I come to talk to you about these things? Tianze, you can't be more angry. Can you give me some results? "
Luo Yan looked at Tianze with a helpless look on his face, and his tone changed and he scolded in a deep voice.
Tianze's face turned pale. He was not good at speaking, so he could only express his emotions with a black face, which looked like a slut. However, Luo Yan's tone of speaking made him helpless.
What people say is facts, and Tianze is not an unreasonable person.
If Luo Yan directly threatened and used the situation, Tianze would not be vain. But Luo Yan was justified by reason with him, who would be able to withstand this?
The corpse-exorcist demon couldn't help it and stood aside and defended: "We were careless about this matter, but it was also due to insufficient intelligence. You did not remind us of the strength of the Chu army!"
"Do you want me to feed me when you eat step by step?"
Luo Yan couldn't help laughing and asked back.
Tianze clenched his fists and said coldly: "Don't say it, I admit that this time the mistake was my fault. It was because I underestimated the speed of the cavalry on the plains, which led to the annihilation of this time."
The main reason is that Tianze stays in Baiyue for many years and has never really seen what a cavalry fighting looks like. In the past, there are only hundreds of cavalry people who have seen the most. The feeling is that they can fight one or two. But this time, I suddenly saw 20,000 elite cavalry coming from the front, and I won’t talk about it anymore.
They were all taken away by someone, so what else can I talk about?
I have seen the world, but the price is a bit high, and the accumulated wealth is gone.
"I don't mean to blame you. My original intention is to knock you and let you see the scene of Qin and Chu's confrontation. In this way, you also know that the strength of the Central Plains army is not comparable to that of the Baiyue Land. If it were not for the obstruction of the terrain of Baiyue Land, the Baiyue Land would have been destroyed long ago, so how could we talk about today?
In the past, when the seven countries had disputes, none of them had the intention to focus on the Baiyue land, so they could be different later.
Tianze, you should understand what I mean.
I can still support you to become the king of Baiyue, but in the end, whether this king surrenders to Qin or chooses to be the enemy of Qin, you can think clearly about it yourself."
Luo Yan continued.
This is half true, because he has never trusted Tianze at all. He can support Tianze to become king, and naturally he can support other tribes to become kings, and not destroy the Baiyue Land. If the seeds of hatred are planted, how can Qin be a good person?
It is better to become Chinese people than to be a group of foreign races who do not know how to farm and let them understand what warmth is.
"What if I choose to be the enemy of Qin?"
Tianze looked at Luo Yan and said quietly.
You don’t have a chance... Luo Yan said calmly: “A friend, I will not participate in this matter, and my support for you will continue. But I will not be responsible for you in the future. Even if you destroy yourself, it will be your business. I just don’t want to make Yan Lingji sad, that’s all.
After all, I value my family very much.”
The most true sentence is that Luo Yan came to this world alone and helplessly. He finally had a home, and he cherished it more than anyone else.
Paused.
Luo Yan continued: "I hope I won't spread what I said to you today. Even if it spreads, I won't admit it. You understand what I mean."
He didn't want Yan Lingji to know that he was fooling Tianze and pretending to be a fool. If so, his face would be really torn apart.
Yan Lingji may be crying again.
Luo Yan was most disgusted by a woman crying, let alone a woman like Yan Lingji.
He will feel distressed.
"I see."
Tianze nodded and said in a low voice: "I want to know what you need me to do next."
"Continue to develop. Within five years, Qin State should not have time and energy to deal with Baiyue. You can continue to develop. I can help you cover up the defeat of Chu State. This is only once. As for the future, let's talk about it later."
Luo Yan said softly, as if he was not very concerned about these things.
Tianze frowned and said in a deep voice: "I need sharp weapons such as armor, bows and crossbows. This time I lose my troops and generals, I need to make up for the losses from other tribes."
He learned without guidance without me. He was excellent... Luo Yan pondered for a moment and said, "It's a bit difficult, I'll try my best."
Tianze nodded, then stood up and said goodbye. Obviously he did not want to stay in Huoyu Villa for a long time. There were a lot of things in his tribe waiting for him to go back.
"Go and meet Yan Lingji, you are also from her parents' home."
Luo Yan reminded him.
Tianze paused, nodded, and then walked out of the house.
Moyao followed.
After Tianze and others left, Luo Yan was the only one left in the study. He walked to the windowsill with a teacup, looked at the wind and rain outside the house, raised his glass and took a sip, and a faint helplessness flashed in his eyes. After all, he was not the man who once wanted to play with women, and now he also needed to consider the overall situation.
To be continued...
