MTL - Martial Arts Master Travelled to Ancient Time and Farms-Chapter 288
Chapter 288
Time flies, and in a flash, the Wei State Mission led by Cheng Ling has stayed in Chendu for more than a month.
June has passed, and when July arrives, Chendu is even hotter.
The turmoil brought by the Wei State Mission in Chendu is just like this hot weather, rolling in the heat wave, maintaining a delicate and dangerous balance.
Because people in the mission always revealed in front of some people intentionally or unintentionally, top-notch colored glaze is not obtained by chance, in fact, there is a formula—
During this period of time, almost half of the top dignitaries in Wei State have set their sights on the colored glaze formula.
The most interesting thing is that this has become a secret that almost everyone knows, but those who know the "secret" all abide by the principle of "never tell others".
So this caused a very interesting phenomenon.
For example, Zhang Jingxian felt that he had obtained an exclusive secret from Cheng Ling, so he actively cooperated with Cheng Ling. He just thought that through this kind of cooperation, he would eventually get the top-level colored glaze formula from Cheng Ling.
He believed that Cheng Ling would never dare to let others know about such a major leak of the "National Treasure Formula", and would never contact other people at will, so he followed the rules with great care.
However, people, after all, all have a flaunting mentality of returning to their hometown after the golden clothes, so Zhang Jingxian, who is holding such a "secret" in his heart, has inevitably been a little drifting recently.
When he looked at his competitors who were almost on the same level as him, he would often unconsciously reveal a kind of secret joy, and even a kind of condescending complacency:
Hey! You mortals, do you know that Zhang and I are going to take off soon? Hmph, after all, you are not good enough for me...
It is precisely because of this subtle condescending psychology that Zhang Jingxian has become humble recently.
The more complacent he was, the more unwilling he was to start conflicts with others. He only waited for him to really get the glaze formula, and then blind everyone's eyes.
Who knows, there are quite a few people who have a similar mentality to him.
Everyone thinks that they will be the ultimate beneficiaries, and they all think that they will "blind others' eyes" at a certain moment, so there are quite a few more people like Zhang Jingxian who suddenly become very humble.
The result of this is that although Chen Du is extremely lively, it is extremely peaceful on the surface.
Isn’t it interesting?
Well, Cheng Ling thinks it's really interesting.
How else can reality be more absurd and interesting than the script?
More and more grains were secretly transported from Chen State to the battlefield between Wei State and Qi State.
Qi State, Yingchuan County.
The army led by Prince Xiaoman of the Wei State was like a huge sword that fell from the sky. It rushed to several counties within a month, piercing straight into the hinterland of Qi State like a broken bamboo.
Wang Yong, who had been struggling in Qidu due to various civil strife, was caught off guard. When he came back to his senses, Wei's army had already invaded Yingchuan County, leaving only a city away from Qidu!
In the puppet court of Qidu, Wang Yong's hair turned white overnight, and Wang Sanlang, who was originally proud and arrogant, also looked dry with anxiety, and his face seemed to have more traces of wind and frost.
Wang Qilang silently huddled in a corner of the hall, and he was still forced to stay outside the power center of the Wang family. Although he has a high status, but at the critical moment when discussing major issues, he can't get in the way.
He didn't really want to interrupt.
The conversations between the members of the royal family and their confidantes floated in my ears, and some "important ministers" in the puppet court tried their best to persuade them.
"Your Majesty, the Wei army is suppressing the city. No matter what, we should welcome the young emperor back. If there is the army of the Heavenly King to help, the Wei army is not irresistible!"
However, the so-called welcoming back the "young emperor" is nothing but a cliché. If it was possible to welcome back, wouldn't Wang Yong welcome the young emperor back sooner?
The problem is, Young Emperor refuses to answer, dare not answer!
Wang Yong couldn't rush to Cangtianwang's territory to grab it, and he couldn't grab it for the time being.
Someone said again: "My lord, instead of welcoming the young emperor back, we might as well issue an imperial decree to recognize the status of the king of Yue and recruit him!"
The so-called "King of Yue" is different from the Young Emperor and the King of Heaven.
Yue Wang Shi Lianhai is nothing more than a traitor who stands on his own, and the king of the mountain started his own business, which is criticized by many heroes in the world. If Wang Yong, who now owns the capital, can recognize him, or even canonize him, presumably Shi Lianhai will be happy to accept it.
Wang Yong's eyes moved slightly, and immediately said: "This plan is fine, you come to draw up an order, and then send envoys to Dongjun to borrow troops."
The courtier who was appreciated immediately showed joy on his face.
Proceedings continue.
Uniting the King of Yue is a good strategy, but it takes time to realize this good strategy.
The water in the distance cannot quench the near thirst, and the army of Wei State is about to attack. From the practical considerations, Wang Yong's troops are really hard to resist.
What to do?
Then someone suggested: "Your Majesty, the terrain of the Divine Capital has many flaws. It is open on three sides and there is no danger. When the late emperor was alive, he wanted to move the capital many times. This time, we might as well take advantage of this opportunity to move the capital. In this way, the last wish of the late emperor is fulfilled, and it also buys time for us to regroup."
As soon as this proposal came out, it attracted many responses.
Everyone said one after another: "That's right, God's capital is in an unfavorable position..."
What shit's bad terrain!
Wang Qilang in the corner curled his lips quietly, while he was mocking in his heart, but at the same time, there was a sense of sadness surging in his chest.
The catastrophe is approaching, but almost all of my uncle's subordinates run away deliberately. Almost no one had the courage to face the Wei army, even Guan Yuelin, who was once regarded as a hero in Wang Qilang's heart, was silent at the moment.
Wang Qilang thought that he would at least ask for a fight.
But although Guan Yuelin did not agree with the theory of moving the capital, he remained silent from beginning to end.
If you don't speak, you probably acquiesce.
Since this is the case, why did you rebel in the first place?
The capital is in the hands of their Wang family, and they haven't even covered it for a year. Are they going to flee in embarrassment?
What is the difference between such behavior and the young emperor and Queen Mother Xu who are ridiculed by the world?
Back then, the Wang clan was so powerful that it forced his friend Cheng Ling to flee Yunchuan County overnight...
Wang Qilang recalled Cheng Ling, he would never forget how Cheng Ling descended like a **** general and rescued him in the army of King Linhai.
I don’t know where Brother Cheng is now?
If he knew what happened today, would "he" laugh?
Wang Qilang lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth moved upwards strangely.
At this moment, Guan Yuelin suddenly heard something.
Guan Yuelin said: "Father, the terrain of Shendu City is indeed unfavorable. It is not as good as Chixia City based on the natural danger of Shenchuan. It is a good strategy to move. As for Shendu, I would like to ask you to stay behind!"
