If you're not afraid to put forward conditions, you're afraid to keep silent.

Quan and Hui were inspired. Quan Taifeng immediately asked, "what premise?"

Niu Youdao: "what does it mean that the two sides have gathered heavy troops at the border for so long and haven't started a war yet?"

Where is this? Quan Taifeng still replied: "a full-scale war is related to the national luck. Naturally, it is not a uncertain war. As long as the internal chaos in Yan state reaches a certain level, it is the time to take advantage of the situation."

The situation is obvious. Niu Youdao used to think so. After seeing the high opinion, he realized that it was not the case at all. A group of secular rulers are making use of the overall situation to play a group of monks as monkeys. To put it bluntly, they are competing with the monks for the right to speak. If they can't win the monks, they can only come to Yin.

Of course, he also drew a shudder from the fire in the chaos and won't pierce it. "Brother said the key. When Yan's domestic chaos reached a certain level, but as far as I know, Yan's internal strength is not completely lacking."

Hui Qingping frowned. "Brother, what are you trying to say?"

Niu Youdao: "I don't want to be a wallflower, but there's no need to say that hypocritical words at this point. I can't gamble on the lives of so many people in Nanzhou. I have to see something beneficial to me before I can start the army, otherwise I can't convince the people below. After all, it's related to everyone's interests. There's a great Zen mountain staring at me in Nanzhou. Brother and sister , the insurgency within the state of Yan is not enough. I hope you can force out the counterattack potential within the state of Yan before I can send troops. "

Quan and Hui looked at each other. Quan Taifeng asked, "what do you mean, how to force?"

Niu Youdao: "Let the rebels go all out and attack one or two states, forcing the state of Yan to go all out. This is good for me in two ways. First, I can observe the potential of the state of Yan and whether we can send troops in Nanzhou, which is also related to whether I can convince Dachen mountain. Second, the rebels contain the absolute power within the state of Yan, so that the army of Nanzhou is as powerful as a bamboo. Only by doing so Only with this can I dare to take up the army, otherwise I can't gamble on such things. "

If they are thoughtful, they have to admit that it is considerate to stand on the other side's position.

Quan Taifeng: "brother, what potential does the state of Yan have? The princes' forces are obvious. You are too worried."

Niu Youdao said, "I don't think all the princes have the strength to destroy the rebels, but they can't work together, so it's not multi-minded, but safe. Brother and sister, just do this premise, and I'll send troops. It's useless to say anything else."

At this point, there was really no need to say anything more, so the matter was settled, and everything was based on the situation orientation.

In fact, this is also the safest way. It is common sense to turn to whichever side the situation is favorable. Otherwise, if such a big thing is involved, the promise of red mouth and white teeth is useless, but there should be visible interests.

Before they left, Niu Youdao mentioned the old story again, "the agreed ten million will only give me five million. It's a little strange for you to do things."

Quan Taifeng couldn't laugh or cry. Hui Qingping also sighed: "I said, brother, you can't make wild demands. Let's give it. It's not our money. We can't be the master. Five million has been a lot. How many monks haven't seen so much money in their life. You can be satisfied. You've got money and tens of thousands of carts of grain. What's not satisfactory? You can't be too greedy."

"Well, well, look at your unhappy face. You don't have to send it." Quan Taifeng raised his hand and stopped, so that Niu Youdao wouldn't send it.

Guan Fangyi took the initiative to see off the guests and sent them out of the villa.

When he returned to the villa, he found Niu Youdao standing on the high Pavilion, clutching his sword and looking at the vast sky, with an expressionless face.

She also went to the attic and saw his back alone in the wind, and the hem of his long clothes turned with the wind.

Although she has always been with Niu Youdao, she can't understand what happened just now. She feels that Niu Youdao seems a little different from before. She still has room to guess what Niu Youdao did before. Now, seeing that both sides have explained everything thoroughly, she still can't figure out what Niu Youdao wants to do.

As soon as the disputes among various countries appeared, the world turned upside down. I don't know how many people were killed and how many monks were in fear of being crushed to pieces by the general trend. In front of him, he seemed to be driving a small boat and carrying a group of people in the rough waves. He fought bravely with those huge ships in the huge waves and knew it was difficult to move forward.

Suddenly, there was a sound of mourning piano in the villa. The back in front of her made her feel inexplicably tragic.

Seemed to know that she was coming. When she came near, she asked, "Zhuang Hong is playing the piano again?"

Guan Fangyi: "right."

Niu Youdao shook his head slightly. "If you are not free, you will complain if you are free. This woman will never be satisfied." he sighed casually and handed out the five bank notes in his hand.

She likes this. As soon as she gets it, she points it and puts it in her sleeve.

Niu Youdao said, "go to the mansion in person and pick up Meng Shuai. Pay attention to confidentiality and remind the Lord not to let outsiders know."

Guan Fangyi immediately complained, "I keep saying that I am the first beauty in the world. What I say is better than singing. In fact, I use my mother as an errand runner."

Niu Youdao said, "you're not the kind of person who only knows beauty but doesn't have a brain. Those who can do more work. In addition, three of these five gold tickets are for the Lord."

Guan Fangyi was not happy at once. "Three? My money. Why? Didn't you give him so much food and grass?"

Niu Youdao said, "soon, the prince will have a lot of money. He has 3 million gold coins in hand, which can solve many problems for him and make things go smoothly."

Guan Fangyi realized that there was a big change from this, so she only muttered and left quickly

When Mengshan rang, it was night and landed directly in niuyoudao's yard.

When starting from Nanzhou Fucheng, it was quite secret. First, he quietly sent Mengshan out of the city with a carriage, and then he took it away from outside the city.

Niu Youdao, who had been waiting for a long time, came forward politely, "it's a sin to let Meng Shuai run back and forth."

Today's Nanzhou, for him, mengshanming is a strategic existence, which deserves his sincere courtesy and respect.

Meng Shanming hurriedly and humbly said, "I'm ashamed to say so."

Without too much affectation and politeness, Niu Youdao invited him into his room and motioned Guan Fangyi, who pushed the wheelchair, to pour a cup of tea for Meng Shanming.

Niu Youdao sat across the table opposite mengshanming and asked, "have you collected all the grain from the Lord?"

The grain truck broke down all the way, and the grain naturally fell all the way and needed to be collected.

"The things to fill his stomach are too big to be wrong. They are all collected." Meng Shanming confirmed to reassure him, and then asked: "is Taoist master not going to return the grain to the imperial court?"

Niu Youdao said with a smile: "we are not rebels, but also part of the imperial court. It's better to be in our hands than in the hands of outsiders."

Meng Shanming smiled bitterly, "can the three factions be spared easily?"

"At least I don't dare to do anything about me now. As long as it is proved afterwards that we are right, we will naturally pass away when we meet. Niu Youdao also gave him a word of relief, and then came to the point," in the daytime, people from Han and song came to me again. "

Meng Shanming's face was slightly frozen and asked tentatively, "advise the Taoist master to start the army?"

Niu Youdao nodded and smiled.

Mengshan Ming's heart strings were slightly tight. "What do you think?"

Niu Youdao didn't hide it from him and told him the details of the negotiation with Quan and Hui.

Meng Shanming's cheeks tensed. "Does Taoist priest really want Nanzhou to betray the enemy?"

Niu Youdao shook his head: "the king is the royal family of Dayan, and Meng Shuai is the Minister of Dayan's shares. Do you have any reason against yourself? It's only an expedient to promise them. The purpose is to let the rebels force the court... How can the court beg us, and how can the king's name be honest and obey the orders to suppress the rebel army?"

Meng Shanming nodded thoughtfully, then frowned and shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not easy for the imperial court to let go. Once the situation is critical, the three factions should do everything to gather the princes' forces to encircle and suppress. It's impossible to hand over the power to suppress the rebellion to us unless they have to. However, even if the princes' forces are gathered, they are selfish. Whoever is commanded is worried that they will suffer losses. It's difficult to fight this war, and the strength of the state of Yan will be lost Step, our strength is greatly damaged. We will get the command of the disabled and defeated general again... Alas! "He can only sigh.

Niu Youdao clenched his fist and knocked on the table. "Meng Shuai's words are reasonable, so we can't give the princes the opportunity to quarrel with each other. This is also the purpose of inviting Meng Shuai."

"Oh!" Meng Shanming cast his eyes, "I'd like to hear your advice."

Niu Youdao: "five route reinforcements, including Xu Jingyue, the governor of Gongzhou, an Xianzhao, the governor of tuzhou, Su Qitong, the governor of Haozhou, Xin Mao, the governor of Fuzhou, and Zhang Hu, the governor of Changzhou. These five people are the old headquarters of Meng Shuai. Niu wants to ask Meng Shuai to write five letters, and I will arrange someone to send them to them as soon as possible."

Meng Shanming wondered, "do you want me to persuade them to work together? There is too much behind them now. I'm afraid they can't help themselves. I can't play any role in writing letters."

Niu Youdao smiled, "it depends on what Meng Shuai wrote."

Meng Shanming didn't understand, "what does the Taoist priest want me to write?"

Niu Youdao's mouth was full of guile: "Meng Shuai wrote in his letter that he was willing to lead the people and horses of Nanzhou to go to war and to calm the rebellion for Dayan at any cost. It's enough to write this down."

Meng Shanming was still a little confused. "Is this useful?"

Niu Youdao: "Meng Shuai said that there are too many people behind them. In the final analysis, the top leaders of the three factions want to keep their power. The five of them will let the people behind them know when they receive this letter. Meng Shuai just imagine that the people behind them are suffering from helplessness. If Nanzhou is willing to pay a price to calm the chaos, I'm afraid it's overjoyed. If someone is willing to calm the chaos for the dead, they can expect them to pay Is there a price to pay? It must be to avoid war and make the imperial court lose again and again! "
