Qingshan Nu nodded heavily: "That's right, envoy, you don't have to do anything."
Guo Ning's heart was moved, but he still frowned and put on a blank expression: "Angels know that Yang An'er occupies most of Shandong. In recent months, all the ministries under his command have forged armored soldiers and practiced martial arts. The military strength has become increasingly powerful like the sea. The generals
They are eager to invade and expand, and they are all ready to move."
He stood up and clapped his hands, and then a follower came forward from the mountain path and took out two wooden boxes.
"Angel please look."
As soon as Qingshan Nu opened the box, he felt a stench steaming up to his face. The smell was ten times more disgusting than rotten sea fish, and what emitted the stench was a ferocious face.
In the past few months, Zhongdu City has been besieged by the Mongols in hundreds of ways. How could there be a day without hundreds of people dying on and off the city? As a close associate of the emperor, Qingshan Nu often patrolled around, and his severed heads were rolling all over the ground.
, he has seen a lot.
But at this moment, he really didn't expect Guo Ning to suddenly show his head.
Qingshan Nu slammed the lid of the box shut: "Xuanshi, what is this?"
"This is the head of Yang An'er's general Ji Qi. I guess you have heard of this person's name, right?"
The Internal Affairs Bureau is the emperor's eyes and ears, and has a comprehensive view of daily military reports. Qingshan Slave is not an incompetent person to be the emperor's confidant. He has a really good memory. He nodded immediately: "I heard that this Ji Qi and another
A bandit named Ji Xian led 10,000 troops to attack Binzhou, and then joined forces with Yin Changli Yingwai, the commander of the army, to break the city."
Guo Ning motioned him to look at another box: "In that box is Ji Xian's head. Do angels want to see it too?"
Qingshan Nu's face changed color slightly: "Commander Jie is already fighting with the Red Coat Army?"
"Yes!" Guo Ning said calmly: "Ten days ago, the second general led his troops to Mizhou and immediately launched an attack on our army. There were many fierce battles on both sides, and both sides suffered damage. Our army used a considerable amount of troops, and then we won.
At this moment, our army, Wang Shixian's headquarters, is confronting the Red Coat Army's Mizhou Dutongguo Jie'er... The Red Coat Army has a large number of troops. I plan to send another 10,000 troops to stabilize the Mizhou area first, and then wait for an opportunity to go south.
, threatening Yang An'er's hometown Juzhou..."
Before he finished speaking, Qingshan Nu suddenly stood up, raised his voice and shouted: "No! Hurry up and withdraw your troops!"
After all, in the past few months, the slaves in Qingshan have moved their Qi and raised their bodies, and have become accustomed to being arrogant in Zhongdu City, and that kind of mentality is brought out from time to time to cause trouble.
He was indeed anxious, so this roar seemed to be roaring in front of the overwhelming number of governors and households in Zhongdu City, and it was actually a bit loud.
Guo Ning's guards were scattered around at this time. They all respected Guo Ning extremely, but they had never seen anyone dare to yell at Guo Ning like this. In an instant, dozens of looks were cast at him, and every one of them was evil.
And Guo Ning picked his ears: "What did you say? Huh? It was windy at the seaside, so I didn't hear clearly."
Qingshan Nu clenched his fists, and when he was about to repeat it loudly, he opened his mouth, but did not make a sound.
Before he came to Shandong, the emperor had specifically told him that Guo Ning, the admiral of the Ding Dynasty, was a rebellious man who was raised from the wilderness by Shan Yi. He completely ignored the authority of the court, acted unscrupulously, and frequently fell out of favor.
When Dajin was strong and powerful, if such a madman dared to show his face in front of the emperor, the emperor would personally kill him with a knife, chop him into pieces, and then chop him into pieces and feed them to the dogs.
But Dajin is no longer the original Dajin, and the emperor is not the brave ancestors in his early years.
If anyone in Zhongdu City dared to be so rude to Qingshan Nu, Qingshan Nu would have already called out the armed guards or the defending warriors to capture him and beat him up.
But now we are not in Zhongdu, but in Laizhou, where Guo Ning has tens of thousands of troops. And the Wuwei army in Zhongdu, or the Weijie army in Zhongdu, was killed by Guo Ning's men in Zhongdu a few months ago. Everyone's head is rolling.
Qingshannu hesitated for a moment and slowly returned to his original position.
Previously, Tu Shanyi relied on Guo Ning's force to intimidate him, turning his hands into clouds and rain in Zhongdu, and dominated the political situation from the third year of Da'an to the second year of Zhenyou.
Now that Tu Danyi is dead, what decision will Guo Ning, who was once driven by him, make next?
No one knows.
But one thing was clear to the emperor:
As long as Tu Shanyi was alive, he used his means and prestige to control the situation in Daikin, so that all parties with interests competed under the same framework and maintained a common goal. But now that Tu Shanyi is dead, the situation in Daikin will inevitably change. chaos.
Precisely because an increasingly chaotic situation was bound to come, the emperor made a ruthless decision to decentralize power and use important ministers and powerful officials to pacify various places, in order to bring order to the chaos, reaffirm the authority of the imperial court, and wipe out the consequences of Tu Shanyi's wanton actions.
During this process, if the Zhongdu court can control the evil tiger Guo Ning... Guo Ning does not need to do anything. As long as he does nothing, the court can watch the Red Coat Army send troops to Nanjing and fight with the people in Kaifeng Mansion. Then the king got rid of the dog's brain.
Is there anything better in the world than two great enemies killing each other and wasting their lives?
Who wouldn’t want to be the oriole watching the mantis stalk the cicada?
And thinking about it on the other hand, if this evil tiger joins forces with that traitor... Not to mention that the territory of Dajin is divided into two, the water transportation to Zhongdu, Hebei and other places is cut off, and there is no more food from Shandong sea route, within a few months, The imperial court cannot survive!
What a hell, when Guo Ning was seeking the position of naval governor, the emperor never expected such a situation!
Therefore, the emperor very solemnly ordered Qingshan Nu:
Don't offend Guo Ning. Press your identity and get the matter done for me first!
Qingshan Nu lowered his head, gritted his teeth, and when he raised his head again, he was already smiling. He even hugged the guards around him and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm anxious. Brothers, don't take it to heart." .”
After all the courtesy, he turned around and said softly: "Envoy, the Red Coat Army is preparing to attack Nanjing. This is exactly what Your Majesty wants to see! You are dragging the power of the Red Coat Army at this time, and it is in vain to make Kaifeng Mansion What benefit does it bring to you?"
"Of course there are benefits. If I defeat Guo Jiao'er, I can take Mizhou; if I defeat Yang An'er, I will have a larger territory and more soldiers. Isn't this a benefit? What's more..."
Guo Ning smiled and looked at Qingshan Nu: "What's more, your majesty's heroic and promising child came to Kaifeng Mansion under the control of Ding Haijun. I think King Sui treats me quite a bit. With good intentions, we should help each other!"
Qingshan Nu suppressed his emotions and said in a deep voice: "In terms of goodwill, isn't it possible that there is no goodwill between His Majesty and Ambassador Guo? Your Majesty also entered Zhongdu under the guidance of Ambassador Guo! Is it possible that the goodwill of the Emperor of Jin was Isn’t it more valuable than King Sui’s kindness?”
Guo Ning burst out laughing, laughing so hard that he couldn't help but laugh.
After a while, he slowly said: "What the emperor thinks, how the emperor views Prime Minister Tu Shan, and even how the emperor views me cannot be hidden from anyone. Therefore, the emperor should not count on it.
Give me a few tiger talismans, fish talismans, and a few empty official positions, and you can tell me what to do and what not to do."
These words were too straightforward and too aggressive. Qingshan Nu had prepared a lot of rhetoric in advance, but Guo Ning overturned the table like a fool, so that there was no use for any rhetoric.
"Propaganda!" Qingshan slave shouted.
Guo Ning waved his hand: "I told you, those things are of no use to me."
Qingshan Nu was dumbfounded and said: "How could it be useless? You want territory and soldiers and horses, but if you don't have the name of the court, how can you control them? If there is no institutional restraint...how can you be crowned like a monkey for a long time?"
"
Guo Ning stood up and said: "I'm afraid it will take a few years to see who is the crown prince. If the emperor can't come up with something new now, you can go back. I am doing a good job as a governor.
The subordinates suddenly changed their names, and it didn't sound so good to me."
New things? Qingshannu could only smile bitterly. It was precisely because the imperial court in Zhongdu was so exhausted that he had to give out these official positions and titles. And the so-called new things... God, how can the imperial court give out anything new?
"Envoy, you might as well tell me exactly what you need."
Guo Ning said with a smile: "It is not difficult at all to make Shandong peaceful and safe. But I have tens of thousands of tigers and beniars under my command in the navy. They are all eager to perform meritorious services. They must have a destination. In addition, my maritime transactions with the Song Dynasty people in the Southern Dynasties
, we can’t keep using real gold and silver to exchange for food and supplies, we also have to give out some special products of big gold to balance the income and expenditure. So, can the imperial court give me a name to meet the Liaodong Xuanfu envoy?
