Everyone looked at An Changgui, only to see that An Changgui, who was sitting at the top, said nothing and never expressed his position.
"What does King Jianning mean? If the military resources are insufficient, we will raise them. Why do we need to do such a big thing!"
"Yes, yes, if it doesn't work, shall we admit defeat to King Jianning?"
Many clan chiefs whose land was counted said that they all expressed their intention to surrender to King Jianning.
An Changgui said nothing, while Wu Hao stood up with his hand on his sword and said: "What are you talking about!? Do you think that if you admit defeat now, King Jianning will spare you? You think that if you spit out a little grain,
Are you going to stop doing this big issue?"
Everyone lowered their heads, but someone whispered: "It's okay to spit it out."
Wu Hao said angrily: "Do you think this is a matter of spitting out some land? King Jianning wants us to sell our ancestral property!"
Everyone lowered their heads, but no one dared to answer Wu Hao's words.
An Changgui, who was sitting on the main seat, said: "It's too late today, let's discuss it tomorrow."
"Uncle Gui!" Yang Shizhong looked at An Changgui and said.
"We'll discuss it tomorrow!" An Changgui waved his long sleeves as a farewell gesture.
The powerful patriarchs who proposed to surrender showed relaxed expressions. They said goodbye to An Changgui and walked to the door of the An family mansion.
I saw only a dozen servants holding torches standing at the door of the An family's mansion. The bright firelight illuminated the door of the mansion like daylight.
The clan leaders were stunned for a moment, then turned to look at An Changgui who was seeing off the guests.
An Changgui forced a smile on his face and said: "It's difficult to walk in the dark, so let me, the servants of An Mansion, take the clan leaders back."
After saying that, An Changgui's butler opened the door, and the servants holding torches filed out, lighting up the entire street.
The expressions of several clan leaders changed, but when they saw the sabers on the waists of these servants, they swallowed the words they were about to say.
Amid everyone's uncertain expressions, An Changgui sent these guests away.
But when it was Yang Shizhong and Wu Hao's turn to go out, An Changgui ordered the housekeeper to close the door.
"Uncle Gui?" Wu Hao looked at An Changgui in confusion.
An Changgui flicked his sleeves and said: "There is no way to make plans! Let's continue the discussion!"
Yang Shizhong and Wu Hao returned to the lobby, and An Changgui said with a sullen face: "These guys are as weak as sheep, we only need to drive them, there is no need to discuss with them!"
Yang Shizhong nodded and said: "What your uncle said is absolutely true. These guys are not successful enough. As long as we take action, they will naturally follow!"
Wu Hao looked at the two of them in confusion, wondering what kind of medicine An Changgui was selling in his gourd.
Seeing Wu Hao's doubts, Yang Shizhong said: "Now the county prince and the governor's office must be watching us, and there must be the eyes and ears of King Jianning in front of your uncle's door."
Wu Hao's expression changed, and he immediately smiled: "I understand! So your uncle asked his servant Minghuo to send them back with great fanfare, just to let King Jianning see that they are in the same boat as us!"
An Changgui said harshly: "Now we are all grasshoppers on the same rope. If we are defeated, King Jianning will not let them go! These guys are smart people, and they will understand this truth by then.
.”
"With so many people discussing matters, how can we discuss important matters if you just say something to me?"
"These guys are already thinking of surrendering. We will wait for today's plot and tomorrow someone will go to the governor's office to claim credit and reward."
"They are unreliable. Only the three of us can work together to overcome this difficulty."
Yang Shizhong stroked his beard, and Wu Hao immediately said: "Uncle, the whole Wu family is at your service!"
An Changgui sighed and said, "If I hadn't been forced into this situation, I wouldn't have been willing to do this. However, King Jianning Huangkou's child is too much. How can we ruin our century-old family fortune in vain?"
An Changgui showed a fierce expression and said: "My son wrote from Lingwu. King Jianning was originally ordered to mobilize troops on Longyou Road, but he was ambushed by Uighur bandits outside Yumen Pass. Thousands of tooth soldiers were wiped out. Only
The remaining hundred or so riders rushed out."
Wu Hao is the director of Bingbei Dao. Bingbei Dao is the department responsible for detecting thefts in the governor's office, and he knows the security of Guazhou best.
He asked doubtfully: "Uighur bandits? King Jianning only arrived in Guazhou last month, right? How could there be Uighur bandits this month?"
An Changgui showed a meaningful expression and said: "Today, in order to quell the rebellion in Hebei, we borrowed 30,000 elite soldiers from the Uighurs. We also made the crown prince and the Uighur prince become opposite-sex brothers. King Jianning is the prince's younger brother and is in the army.
He has a reputation, why do you think he encountered the Uighur bandits?"
After saying this, Yang Shizhong and Wu Hao both took a deep breath.
An Changgui said: "This is a crisis, but it is also a fortune. Do you two understand what I mean?"
At this time, Yang Shizhong, who was calm just now, suddenly changed his expression. He looked at An Changgui with trembling lips and said, "Uncle Gui, if you get involved in such a big thing, you will destroy the nine tribes if you are not careful?"
Wu Hao said excitedly: "Uncle Gui, this is a huge fortune!"
An Changgui said coldly: "Shi Zhong, are you just like those stupid donkeys, thinking that as long as you surrender to King Jianning, you will let us go?"
"King Jianning is young and has strict laws. We are the head of a wealthy family in Guazhou, so there is no reason to let us go. Your family has been serving as the chief minister of household affairs for many years. There are so many omissions in the field register and the Ding register. How can you still
Can you escape the law of King Jianning?"
At this time, Yang Shizhong's face instantly turned pale, while Wu Hao grabbed his sword and said: "What your uncle said is absolutely true! This time is a crisis and an opportunity! If we get rid of King Jianning for the East Palace, it will be a disaster.
Heaven is so rich!"
An Changgui nodded and said: "The one in the East Palace is the marshal of the world's troops and has a stable position. King Jianning is just a deposed prince. After the attack, he didn't even dare to return to Lingwu. You can't tell which one is more serious.
clear?"
An Changgui Tu said in a confused tone: "If we can kill King Jianning for the East Palace! Our three families will not only be the richest people in Guazhou! We will definitely get the care of the East Palace and find a set of purple for our descendants.
Official robes!”
Officials of the third rank and above in the Tang Dynasty wore red and purple official robes. After An Changgui finished speaking, Wu Hao's eyes shone.
However, Yang Shizhong said cautiously: "Prince Jianning lives in the Moli Army camp and is heavily guarded. How can we accomplish this?"
An Changgui said with a smile: "Moli's army only has five hundred people, and King Jianning's army only has more than two hundred people, and more than a hundred people were sent out to go out to inspect the situation."
"The three of us have a private army of 800 people, plus more than 200 soldiers from the governor's office. These big families in the city can still gather a thousand private soldiers. After we start an incident, they will have to respond! Two thousand
Against six hundred, the advantage is mine!"
An Changgui added: "We first attacked the Governor's Mansion, kidnapped Prefect Zhang, and then issued an order with the bronze talisman of the Governor's Mansion, saying that the real King Jianning had been killed by the Uighur bandits and that this King Jianning was impersonated by thieves.
Send him to Lingwu to verify his identity!"
"At this time, we surrounded the Moli Army camp and used the governor's order to persuade the Moli Army to surrender! As long as the Moli Army wavers, a hundred tooth soldiers around King Jianning can break it with just a few clicks!"
