"The third situation is neutrality. This is the attitude held by most of the Hehuang and Fan tribes. Most of the people they sent were concubines, nephews and ordinary young men. These people followed His Highness the King of Qin back to the headquarters, as Jiahu, Baihu, etc.
Separately take charge of various accounts of the headquarters, and actually control the real power of the headquarters..."
"What about the tribal leader and his legitimate son?" Li Qingchen asked in shock.
"I heard that some of them were moved to Guanzhong, but most of them are still the same." Li Jian answered vaguely.
But everyone here is a veteran of high and low officialdom. How come they don’t understand these routines? Those tribal leaders, legitimate sons and other cronies may still have the same status on the surface, but in fact they are completely different.
The hundreds of Jiahu who came back followed the imperial court and the King of Qin, defeated the Xia army, made great military achievements, and gained prestige that convinced the public. Behind them were tens of thousands of comrades who had been through life and death and the tyrannical Suzaku Banner as their backers.
Most of the Tibetan tribes are uncivilized, fearing power but not virtue, and only respect the strong. Naturally, they are convinced by these households.
In this way, the people and real power of the tribe will slowly be controlled by those households of Jia and Baihu. Moreover, the thousands of households in each wing of the Suzaku Banner must have received the secret order and will secretly help these Jia and Baihu to take power. When the time comes, they will naturally be able to take over their hands.
Tribal leaders and their cronies, and then crowd them out.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Li Jian knew that he had to add some more information.
"...If those tribal leaders want to regain the real power of the tribe, they can only follow the army and make military exploits in the conquest. Some tribal leaders, seeing that the situation is not good, take the initiative to move to the states and counties in Guanzhong with their legitimate sons and relatives. Compared with these people
Those who moved in front were treated favorably..."
"How can this be done? Such chaos, where are the common etiquette!" Li Qingchen stood up in a hurry, his beard trembling in the air with anger. "The King of Qin did this act of having no king and no father, with ulterior motives!"
It can be seen that he hates Zhao Si even more.
"What are the rules of etiquette? What rules of etiquette do you tell those tribes? Are they literate?" Zhang Dun asked bluntly.
"If they don't know the rules of etiquette, it's even more important to educate them with the teachings of sages!" Li Qingchen retorted, "As long as you uphold benevolence, those tribes will naturally be influenced. But His Highness the King of Qin went against the trend and acted like a beast that violated the rules of etiquette.
Lift!"
Li Qingchen almost yelled out the last sentence.
"Absurd! Those Tibetan tribes are vulgar and barbaric, no different from wild beasts. How can you inspire them with kindness? Prime Minister Li, do you want to imitate Buddha and serve the tiger with your body? You must first use a knife to make them surrender and obey, and then educate them. Mr. Kong
When the teacher traveled to various countries, in addition to books, he also carried a sword with him!"
Li Qingchen's face was filled with anger, and he finally said sternly, "I won't associate with animals!" and walked away.
Looking at his back, Zhang Dun didn't say anything to persuade him to stay, but just smiled coldly, "We have different ways and we don't want to conspire against each other. Sanlang, Shilang, come in and exchange the tea for you gentlemen!"
Professor Zhang and Zhang Yuan came in from the side door and exchanged tea for everyone.
Looking at the busy figures of the two people, everyone understood that the precarious relationship between Zhang and Li finally broke down today, and the two stubborn parties finally broke up.
No one else showed any unusual expressions, but Huang Fu, a loyal follower of Zhang Dun, felt very anxious.
Zhang Dun had always had a bad relationship with the King of Qin, and the two even had a fistfight in the Chui Gong Hall. This is known to everyone. Now he has fallen out with Li Qingchen, the representative of Qingliu, which means that he has also parted ways with the mainstream of Shilin.
Zhang Xiang, you are going to be a lonely minister! When the official family leaves and King Qin succeeds to the throne, what should you do?
You said it yourself, King Zhao Shisan of Qin, was not a soft-hearted person like the late emperor and the officials. Did he have to make his family ruined before he would give up?
Huang Fu also knew that this was not the time to talk about this. He needed to wait for the right time and place to persuade Zhang Dun.
"Li Fifteenth Lang, continue talking." Zhang Dun waited for the two sons to change the tea, then spoke again.
Li Jian lowered his head and responded.
"Yes! Prime Minister Zhang, gentlemen, I will now say that the fourth type of the Hehuang Fan tribe is to follow the Xia Kingdom wholeheartedly and become the enemy of the Song Dynasty. There are many such Fan tribes. His Highness the King of Qin led the victorious army and directly destroyed it.
They killed the leader and divided the tribes. This is called removing the tail."
Hearing this, Huang Fu felt even more anxious.
When the King of Qin succeeds to the throne, and he brings a group of ministers who follow the dragon, will he also cut off Zhang Xiang and himself?
Li Jian's voice continued.
"Xiang Zhang, gentlemen, these are just random guesses based on the information I have obtained. I can only get a little glimpse of how His Highness King Qin operates. There are many mysteries in it that I don't know."
"I only know that His Highness the King of Qin was able to recruit tens of thousands of Tibetan cavalry in a short period of time, and then he was able to take advantage of the situation and organize two hundred thousand Tibetan tribes into the Seven Wings of the Suzaku Banner and submit them to Wang Hua. In addition to all his efforts, he must also have used it.
Many means..."
After Li Jian finished speaking, Zhang Dun nodded and praised, "Li Fifteen Lang can guess the big picture from the small. This vision and thought are amazing. You are indeed a talent."
"Thank you Zhang Xiang Miao Zan."
Zhang Dun waved his hand and continued, "Li Fifteenth Lang is right. His Highness the King of Qin can recruit the Tibetan cavalry and then integrate them for our use in the Song Dynasty. Mind, means, and courage are all indispensable."
Having said this, Zhang Dun glanced at the people present and said meaningfully: "Everyone here is my colleague. Follow me to introduce the ancestors and restore Xining's method. I am telling you this tonight because I want to
Let me tell you, the situation is now decided, you should make plans early and don’t be dragged down by me.”
Everyone's expressions were swaying, and their hearts were ups and downs, especially Huang Fu, who was about to burst into tears.
"Xiang Zhang, why do you say this? Now that Su Gui is in charge, doesn't His Highness the King of Qin still have a difficulty?" Zhang Shangying asked hesitantly.
Zhang Dun laughed heartily, glanced back and forth between Liu Kui and Cai Jing twice, and finally pointed at Cai Jing and said, "Yuan Chang, please tell everyone."
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Cai Jing.
After waiting for a while, Cai Jing said slowly: "A few days ago, Yuan Du wrote a letter, telling me that when making friends with the King of Qin, you must be frank and never hide anything."
After hearing this, several people here were confused. What did Cai Jing mean by this?
"Yuandu also said later that the King of Qin was talented and intelligent, and the city was extremely deep. He was best at making plans and following the trend." Cai Jing finally got to the point.
"The key to Su Gui's success lies in whether the officials believe it or not. If the officials broke out on the spot in the palace, the King of Qin might still be in trouble. But the officials gave the King of Qin a chance to identify himself and let him find out the truth. In this way
Come, not only will the King of Qin not be in trouble, but he may have an opportunity to eliminate his dissidents."
"A chance to eliminate dissidents?" Huang Fu looked horrified.
Cai Jing glanced at him and continued calmly: "Yes. Didn't Su Gui first say that there was a secret behind the prince's death? His Highness the King of Qin could have found out a hidden secret. It's just the mastermind behind this..."
Everyone understands, but they feel very uncomfortable.
"But what is the truth?" Huang Fu murmured.
"The truth? At this moment, who cares about the truth?" Cai Jing said calmly.
Zhang Dun saw the atmosphere in the room and turned to ask Li Jian, "Li Fifteenth Lang, I heard that His Highness the King of Qin is the most vigilant. There was an investigation before the trip and the Queen behind. You have been following His Highness for a long time, haven't you been discovered?"
Li Jian smiled sheepishly, "I was discovered not long after I left Kaifeng City. The guards of the King of Qin felt that there was no threat to me, so they just waited and watched. After leaving Jingzhao Mansion, the guards of the King of Qin couldn't bear it anymore and captured the next line on the spot.
.I will tell you my name. His Highness the King of Qin learned that I am a member of Prime Minister Li’s clan and working for Prime Minister Zhang, so he stopped pursuing me and gave me a few good horses."
Everyone laughed.
Zhang Dun asked again: "Li Fifteenth Lang, you have made great achievements, where do you want to serve?"
"In reply to Prime Minister Zhang, I would like to guard Ma Junsi."
Zhang Dun's triangular eyes flashed, and he made up his mind. He stroked his beard and said: "The Sanya Privy Council is now the territory of His Highness King Qin, but by arranging a commander, I can still have this face."
When everyone heard this, their expressions changed slightly, especially Cai Jing's beautiful eyes, which moved faster.
After everyone left, only Zhang Dun, Zhang Shuo, Zhang Yuan and his son were left in the study.
"What people want is what they want. Even Li Fifteen Lang knows how to follow the King of Qin..."
Professor Zhang was stunned and couldn't help but interject and asked, "Sir, Li Jian has defected to the King of Qin?"
"yes."
"How do you know, sir?"
"Sanlang, you have to be aware of it! Li Fifteenth said tonight, can ordinary people know the information mentioned? If he hadn't been with King Qin, how could he know it so clearly? King Qin is such a vigilant and cautious person, how can he let people know it so clearly?
Ordinary people are following you? Also, Li Fifteen Lang can't go anywhere but to the Guards Infantry Division. The King of Qin is reorganizing, so there are plenty of opportunities."
"Now that I think about it, it should be the northwest group. Li Fifteen Lang has been impressed by the King of Qin and follows him wholeheartedly. What a trend! Not only the Western Army, but also the Gyeonggi and the Imperial Guards all over the world. Who doesn't regard the King of Qin as a star? Who doesn't want the King of Qin to lead them to make achievements?
, granting the title of wife and son? The morale of the army has been won by the King of Qin."
Professor Zhang and Zhang Yuan admired their father's observations and conclusions very much. Zhang Dun waved his hand and continued.
"Tomorrow evening, Da Su will host a banquet for King Qin, San Lang, and Si Lang at Liulou. You two will go and attend."
Zhang Shuo and Zhang Yuan looked at each other, and Zhang Shuo asked hesitantly.
"Sir, do you have any instructions for asking the children to attend the banquet?"
"Da Su is my old friend. Although we have different political opinions, we have parted ways. But as juniors, it is also right for you to support me and greet your elders."
Zhang Dun said slowly, "Da Su has always been admired by the King of Qin, and it is well known that the two have had a close friendship for a long time. Da Su has been surrounded by people with ulterior motives in Kaifeng City these days. His character,
I know it. I can guess what he is thinking now and what he will say at the banquet."
Having said this, he stared at his two sons and confessed earnestly: "After you go, watch more, listen more and talk less. When you come back, explain everything to your father in detail. I want to see the measure of King Qin."
Zhang Professor and Zhang Yuan looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, but they bowed their hands honestly, "My son, I will remember it." This chapter has been completed!
