Because he was afraid that Tang Yin would make public the wrong things about his throne, Shao Fang did not order to stop the retreating Feng army. However, he was still deeply affected by Tang Yin's wanton love and planted the seeds of revenge.
Shao Fang returned to modu Zhenjiang, and soon after, there was a bloodbath. The object he cleaned up was the Shao royal family. In order to let himself have the absolute orthodox status, in order to no one can threaten his throne, Shao Fang laid a hard hand on his clan relatives.
At the beginning, he also pretended to look for some "criminal evidence" to convict the clan. Later, Shao Fang was lazy even to plant booty and ordered to be killed directly. At this time, Shao Fang, the most cruel and cruel aspect of human nature, showed incisively and vividly.
At the beginning, when Shao Fanggang inherited the throne, he had cleaned up a large number of Shao clan relatives, including his younger brother Shao Bo. However, at that time, he was a new monarch, and he needed to eliminate dissidents to consolidate his throne. It is not unreasonable to do so. But now his throne is very stable, and it is unpopular to clean up the Shao clan.
Not only did the people of Mo state complain, but also most of the ministers expressed their opposition. After all, the most important thing for Shao Zong's supporters is not to persuade the royal family. No matter how saintly the monarch is, he also needs someone to help him. He kills his clan indiscriminately. In the end, he is left alone. It is too late to repent.
The Counsellors' advice is right, but also out of loyalty and kindness, but now Shao Fang can't listen to a word. More and more ministers have seen the letter. Shao Fang was so angry that he cut off three ministers who had written to advise him, and told the whole country that whoever dares to cover up the royal family members should be punished as fellow party members and killed nine ethnic groups.
Shao Fang's killing the admonished minister was undoubtedly a big taboo. In terms of the prevailing atmosphere at that time, no matter how different the opinions of the admonished ministers and the monarch were, the monarch could not execute the ministers hastily. Even if the admonishment was just a civilian, the monarch should treat him with courtesy, otherwise he would be labeled as a tyrant. Shao Fang obviously can't care so much. He has to get rid of the future trouble forever, or he will be in the hands of Tang Yin. His throne may be lost at any time. He doesn't want to live in fear in the future.
Even Dong Sheng, the right-wing prime minister who helped him to get the throne, had a lot of complaints about Shao Fang's crazy behavior. Unfortunately, Shao Fang is no longer the original Shao Fang, and there is no place to listen to him.
One by one, the Royal clans of Mo state were killed by Shao Fang for various reasons or no reason at all, which caused people to be in danger. Many clans began to flee from Mo state with their families, or went to settle down in the South or seek refuge in Fengguo in the north.
The escape of the royal clan gave Shao Fang an excuse to kill all of them. He made a public statement in the court that the royal clan was no longer the pillar of Mo state, nor the king's right arm, but the moth of Mo state, which must be eradicated.
At this time, no one dared to voice his advice, and people could only bear Shao Fang's cruelty in silence.
Mo's efforts to clean up the royal family, while the Fengguo side is calm. The feud between Tang Yin and Shao Fang, and the marriage with lingshuang did not bring much trouble to Fengguo. Instead, the imperial court made urgent consultations.
On the night of Tang Yin's return to Yancheng, the Fengguo ministers headed by Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji came to see him.
When they arrived, Tang Yinzheng and his four wives had dinner together. During the dinner, Wu Mei asked him about his marriage with lingshuang. Tang Yin laughed it off and didn't take the marriage into consideration. Seeing him so playful, Wu Mei no longer asked.
In the middle of the meal, I heard that Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji and other ministers were coming. Tang Yin sent a message and told them to wait in the study for a moment. It was only for half an hour that Tang Yin left for his study after dinner with his four wives.
Tang Yin's study is not small, but it is full of people at this time, which seems a little crowded. Seeing that Tang Yin arrived, everyone got up and saluted one after another, saying in unison: "king!"
Nodding his head, Tang Yin waved his hand, indicating that all the ministers would take their seats.
"King, I have heard of what happened at the border between Mo and Yu. Now that our country is facing a big enemy, we should not offend Mo any more and add another strong enemy!" Zhang Han, a bachelor, said in a hurry.
Tang Yin smiles, shrugs and says, "it's not my king who offends Mo, but Mo's trick of Yu. What can I do?"
Zhang Han said, "in this case, the king should send envoys to the state of Mo with heavy gifts to rebuild the friendship of the allies."
Tang Yin said with a smile: "why is it that the king sent envoys to send heavy gifts instead of Mo's initiative to repair them?"
Zhang Han said: "China is in urgent need of Mo's help to resist Sichuan Zhen and other powerful countries. On the contrary, China is not so important to Mo, so it's natural for China to show its favor on its own initiative"
without waiting for him to say something, Tang Yin interrupted: "Mr. Zhang is very good at speaking from the standpoint of Mo state!"
Qiu Zhen and Shangguan Yuanji haven't spoken for a long time. Their main purpose is to see Tang Yin's attitude. Through his conversation with Zhang Han, we can see that Tang Yin has no intention of remedying the collapse of the Fengmo alliance, which indirectly shows that Tang Yin agrees with the rupture of the alliance.After listening to Tang Yin's tone, Qiu Zhen was afraid that Zhang Han, a nerd, would continue to speak against Tang Yin's will. He said bluntly, "is it your Majesty's intention to fight against Mo?"
When Tang Yin heard the speech, he did not reply directly. Instead, he asked, "in recent years, has the national strength of the strong wind become stronger or weaker?"
Although the national treasury of Fengguo is empty now, it is obvious to all that its national strength has become stronger. Not to mention other things, the annexation of eight counties in northern Ningxia has made the strength of Fengguo rise in quality. In the past, Fengguo was a big country short of food. Because of the problem of food and grass, it was unable to support a large number of troops. Now the annexation of eight counties in northern Ningxia has made the Fengguo have a stable source of food. Both the central army and the local army have doubled in number.
The ministers looked at each other and said with one voice, "China's national strength has been greatly improved than before."
Tang Yin nodded and asked, "why is there promotion?" Without waiting for an answer, he continued, "because of the war! Only by war can we plunder the rich land, plunder the wealth of other countries, plunder the population, resources and technology. Without war, the wind country will only decline. Only continuous war will make the wind country stronger and stronger. " With these words, Tang Yin stood up, went to the wall and waved off the curtain curtain hanging on the wall. Behind the curtain was a map of the whole Haotian Empire and the surrounding countries. He pointed to the top of the map and said, "look at it, everyone. Now, where can we fight with Fengguo? To the East is the sea, to the west is TIA, and to the north is besa and duki, which is about to be annexed by besa. China has no way to expand except mo
People subconsciously went to the map. After a close look at it, they found that there were many traces of outlines on the map, and most of them were concentrated between Feng and Mo. obviously, Tang Yin's plan for Mo's military use was not one day or two.
Qiu Zhen said: "it turns out that the king has already been ready to fight against Mo!"
"I can't talk about preparation. I didn't expect to fall out with Shao Fang so soon, but since I've already turned over, I don't need to be polite." After a pause, Tang Yin turned back and said, "Qiu Zhen, immediately send a message to the third water army of TIA, and the whole army will immediately withdraw to the country for repair."
"Yes! King On the issue of foreign expansion, Qiu Zhen fully agreed with Tang Yin's decision. He and he thought that annexation was the only way out for a powerful country.
However, Zhang Han immediately stood up to express his opposition. He said in a quick voice, "king, you can never compare Mo with Ning. When fighting Ningguo, we had the strong support of Mo, and we could fight with mo. we did not have any reinforcements. On the contrary, we had to risk fighting with Chuanzhen and other countries at the same time. The king must not act impulsively and send troops hastily! "
Tang Yin frowned. How could Zhang Han always be afraid of the wolf before and the tiger after? How could he become a great man? At this time, Shangguan Yuanji finally said: "in fact, it is not as difficult to break the state of Mo as you imagine."
"Oh?" The spirit of all the people present was very excited, and they looked to Shangguan Yuanji one after another.
Tang Yin asked, "what does Yuanji say?"
Shangguan Yuanji said: "after all, Shao Fang's throne has not come from a good way. Our country can first send spies to hide in the state of Mo and spread rumors among the people to expose Shao Fang's assassination of his father in order to win the throne. In this way, the loyalty of the people of Mo to Shao Fang will be greatly reduced. At the same time, the king can also support other royal families in the state of Mo, and let them unite to impeach Shao Fang. As long as the chaos can be created and the civil strife in the state of Mo can be achieved, it will be greatly beneficial to our country, and the dispatch of troops will achieve twice the result with half the effort. "
Bang! Tang Yin nodded, looked up and laughed, and even praised, "Yuanji's idea is wonderful, so do it!"
Hearing this, Zhang Han was in a hurry again and said, "you can't do it! Although the king had some friction with the king of Mo, the agreement between Feng and Mo is still there. There is no proper reason for the king to send troops to Mo
Both Tang Yin and Shao Fang are small minded people, but in terms of tolerance, Tang Yin is much better than Shao Fang. Zhang Han repeatedly stood up against Tang Yin's intentions, but Tang Yin could not help it. Because of this, his ministers dared to express their true ideas in front of him again and again.
"Lord Zhang, before long, we will have a reason to send troops." Tang Yin laughs and believes in himself.
"Ah?" Zhang Han looks at Tang Yin in a daze.
Tang Yin said: "Shao Fangzhi and lingshuang married, will think that I have the intention of annexing the jade kingdom. He will never tolerate our Fengguo annexing the jade state, because in this way, it is tantamount to forming an encirclement to the state of mo. he will certainly use military force in a short period of time, either against the jade state or against the wind country. However, the southern part of China has a natural danger, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. You know, I'm married to lingshuang. If the state of Mo attacks the state of jade, it's reasonable for me not to go to rescue. It's natural for Mo to send troops. "
