12. Shame on the children
"Yes, yes, what my fourth uncle said is extremely true." Wei Bo's merchants instantly understood the pros and cons, and hurriedly agreed.
"Remember, as long as raw silk and cloth are used, you will give us Huaiyang Haidong Merchants the amount of goods every year, and the copper and silver coins will enter your house's money cabinet like flowing water!" Wang Si's uncle offered an undeniable condition, and then took out the contract letter. Wei Bo's merchants could not resist the temptation and all pressed red fingerprints on it.
When the large ship of Huaiyang set sail and went south, Wei Bo left behind and Tian Ji'an sent a letter to Zhending Mansion with confidence. As the "Heshuo leader", he wanted to arbitrate the conflict between Chengde Army and Yiwu, Lulong and Henghai Towns.
Wang Wujun, who was surrounded by enemies, received a letter from Tian Ji'an, asking him to return Xingzhou to the court as soon as possible, otherwise I, Wei Bo, may join the sequel to the conquest at any time. As long as you can return to the territory and apologize to the court, I, Tian Ji'an, will still be willing to be a peacekeeper. After all, you Zhao still cannot live without me, Wei.
"Today, I was humiliated by the children!" Wang Wujun was so angry that he tore the letter to pieces, cursing Tian Ji'an, Liu Ji and others short-sighted.
But after Wu Wujun fell to the bed, he fell to him dejectedly and took a long time to call Wang Shizhen.
"Let your brother Wang Shiping go to the Daming Palace and the Secretary of the Central Secretariat to apologize and ask the court to pick up the snow." In the end, Wang Wujun ordered weakly.
Soon, Wang Shiping cried bitterly and leaned in front of the priest hall, saying that he was willing to accept the punishment of depriving all official titles. He hoped that the prime ministers could forgive my father's sins, and Xingzhou would immediately return it to the court.
In the end, Zheng Zhi walked out of the gate and helped Wang Shiping up. He comforted him, saying that Shiping was the son-in-law of the prince, and he had always been in accordance with the law. The court was about to use it, so how could he cut you off? However, after the priest's conscience was fully discussed, the following will be taken care of. I hope you will listen to it:
The Grand Marshal Wang Wujun must return to the court to attend the court within two years, and then he granted the first A house in Chang'an and dozens of elderly care;
However, Cheng De Army's flag remains in Zhending Mansion, and the current deputy envoy Wang Shizhen replaced him;
The six prefectures of Hengji, owned by the Chengde Army, remained their own taxes and policies remained unchanged.
"..." Wang Shiping received all of them and left.
After returning to Fanchuan Villa, Wang Shiping couldn't help but feel happy and said to his wife Princess Yiyang: "The old man is coming to Chang'an to attend the ceremony. In order to stabilize the morale of Qi, my brother will inevitably kill the generals of the German army to establish his authority. At that time, the situation of the vassal state is unstable. I report to the court inside and form a grand tutor outside, and then I can drive into Zhending Mansion and take over the flag." After that, Wang Shiping clenched his fists tightly, as if the Zhending Mansion was in his control.
Princess Yiyang now fully understands that the old Wang family is full of characters who are "kind, filial, filial, and brothers, and brothers, and brothers, and brothers, and brothers, and brothers, and she is worthy of being a Khitan. However, she can't take care of so many things. Anyway, the Li Tang family is similar. Now Yiyang vaguely feels that leaving Chang'an City as soon as possible is the right way, so he also expresses support for his husband.
In the end, only Li Shigu, the Lu army, was suddenly isolated.
In the city of Yunzhou, Li Shigu was restless. Liu Wu led most of the troops in Caozhou, pretending to be dead. To be honest, he wished he could hold the sword and cut Liu Wu into pieces with one sword to vent his anger at the time of escape. But he did not dare to kill Liu Wu rashly in the current situation, because once Liu Wu died, the loyalty of other generals would be shaken. If Gao Yue took the opportunity to attack, the Pinglu army would really be destroyed.
However, at this moment, Li Shigu also understood that he could not fight the court anymore. Wei Shuai Tian Ji'an turned to the court because of his dissatisfaction with him. Zhao Shuai Wang Wujun retracted back to Hengji, which was difficult for him to protect himself. It is said that he might have to pack his luggage and settle down in Chang'an soon. He was really isolated and had internal and external troubles.
"It's better to just surrender. What's the family temple? What's the ancestral property? I, Pinglu Li, came from Goryeo, and became a military governor of the twelve states. It's worth it. However, Fu Yin is usually killed for five generations, so this is absolutely not wrong. Therefore, I cannot make a mistake in one step, destroy all my descendants. Now I surrender to the court and return the twelve states of the East Henan Province. I will have the best merits. In order to win people's hearts, the court will definitely treat me and my teacher with preferential treatment. In the future, I will not be able to end up with a high official of the first and second ranks, but it is also a good idea."
After figuring it out, Li Shigu returned to his house and privately called Li Shidao and explained to him:
"I'm going to return the twelve states to the public."
When Li Shidao heard this, he slapped his mouth and tears were about to fall.
"Why are you crying? Your brothers and I, together with you, brought your two sons, into the court to attend the court for the surrender."
At this time, Li Shidao immediately did not cry, and he had a faint expression of joy.
Li Shigu sighed, "You have been rich and rich since childhood and lacked experience. If I continue to fight against the court, even if I can delay for three or five years by chance, after you take over the family business in the future, the group of generals under your command, who are like wolves and tigers, will each wish you will be able to divide your flesh and blood and eat. I understand that no matter how innovative our Pinglu army is, we will not be able to reach the level of Gao Yue Dingwu Army and Wu Yi Army. What's the use of being like a figure or a spirit? Why not be as good as the submission now while my brothers still have the capital to surrender, and you will be able to enjoy wealth and honor between the two capitals. Your two sons, Hongfang, will Ming'an be protected in the future and have no worries about food and clothing."
"Since my brother has made up his mind, what else do you have to say?" Li Shidao said to follow his brother.
"But now that the generals and main forces of the Pinglu army are all in Caozhou, they all know that the military commander Liu Wu is shaking again. I said that he would surrender. Liu Wu is likely to incite the army to harm my brothers. It is better for us to announce the cessation of war with the court and ask Liu Wu to return to the military mansion, and then take the opportunity to kill him. Once Liu Wu dies, the military power is in your hands. Then we will be safe with the Pinglu army and the twelve states to the court."
"Kill Liu Wu?" Li Shidao's face looked a little panicked.
"You must kill Liu Wu! This plan is only known by you and I, God and Earth, and you cannot reveal it to outsiders!" Li Shigu repeated affirmatively.
As a result, when Li Shidao returned to the bedroom, his unusual expression floated on his face. His wife Wei and his concubine Yuan, Pu felt strange, so he raised the candle to ask what happened. Li Shidao did not say anything, but his wife and concubines were curious but became even more intense. Finally, Li Shidao, who was impatient, scolded and said, "What do you women know? I may leave Yunzhou soon."
"Do you want to go back to Mizhou?" Wei asked.
"If you don't go back to Mizhou, you will sell my family's fields in various places. You will also go with me immediately, that's it." Li Shidao just said that.
Who would have thought that as soon as Li Shidao was bedtime, Wei and two concubines gathered in the outdoor room to discuss secretly.
"My husband said this, would you leave Ziqing?"
"Are you going to Chang'an to be a hostage?" The concubines were very scared.
"If you go to Chang'an, you won't be able to sell your land. Maybe, Jieshuai wants to surrender to the court with my husband and brothers..." Wei said earnestly.
Ten days later, Li Shigu took Liu Yanping as a secret envoy to Caozhou's unjust Jupinglu Army Camp and said to Liu Wu: "Wei Bo and Hengji stopped fighting with the court in turn. Our Ziqing has also contacted Gaogong Shi and Hunfuguo. Both sides are willing to stop the battle. Bianzhou City is returned to the court to deal with it. Our Ziqing does not cede the land. Jieshuai asked the military envoy to lead the army to return to Yuncheng to show our sincerity in calming the military revolution."
