Chapter 1781 Wu Sangui's hesitation

"Rareless!" Wu Sangui finally spoke, and he shouted softly, "Have you forgotten the reason why arrogant soldiers will be defeated?"

The three people who were fighting bowed together, and Ma Sanbao said, "I know that I am wrong... Please punish me."

Wu Sangui waved his hand casually, "No guilt... Guozhu, the Prime Minister is right. What can I get when fighting with the 200,000 Northern Expedition Army?"

The Prime Minister of Xia responded with a smile, "What the prince said is very... The court said nothing, saying that the prince of Jin was the prince of Pingxi, but where did the west come from? Fujian, Guangdong, Huguang, and half of Sichuan and Shu are all under the control of the Daxi Army. Even if the prince really sent troops to help Prince Ying pacify Henan this time, how could the court reward the prince's contribution?"

Hu Guozhu said, "It's just... it's just that some people only see military merits under their noses... In fact, they missed the prince's plan but didn't know it!"

Ma Sanbao was furious and pointed at Hu Guozhu and said, "Don't let me secrete water to Ma... Ma is loyal to the prince, and the world can be seen!"

"Cough!" Wu Sangui coughed lightly, calming the entire field immediately.

"After all, it is the imperial decree... I still need to save it." Wu Sangui said leisurely, "But how to save it and to what extent it is, it requires careful consideration."

Xia Guo Prime Minister was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said, "What my father-in-law said is very true. Eighty thousand people are to save, and eight thousand people are to save. Even if there are eight hundred partial teachers in the sect, that is to save... As long as the people arrive, what is the result? That is God's will, what does it have to do with us?"

Unexpectedly, Wu Sangui suddenly frowned and said, "I'm so stupid for the court? You... I'm afraid that I can't even figure out how I lose my head when I die!"

This is a harsh statement, and it can be said that it has never happened before. Prime Minister Xia was scolded and silent for a while.

Guo Zhuangtu on the other side rescued the brother-in-law Xia Guo, saying: "What the prince said is reasonable. How many pairs of eyes are staring at us in the court... If we don't work hard, we may not be able to cover it up. Therefore, the son-in-law thought that at least ten thousand cavalry would have to be sent south. Although the son-in-law was not talented, he would also be a front pawn and serve the prince!"

This not only relieved the siege of Prime Minister Xia and also whitewashed his loyalty. In theory, it was a matter of favor between both sides.

Unfortunately, the flattery hit the ground. Wu Sangui's face darkened, and he pointed at Guo Zhuangtu and scolded: "You... are not as good as the prime minister!"

Guo Zhuangtu couldn't understand it for a while, but after thinking about it, Prime Minister Xia realized something.

Xia Guoxiang looked at the green stubble on Wu Sangui's forehead and asked, "My father-in-law is worried about it, is it the Jianxing Dynasty... King of Wu?"

Wu Sangui sighed slightly, "I don't know where such a person came out... In just six years, Duoduo was killed and Boluo was imprisoned. I'm afraid the rumor that the Regent was killed by him was also true."

Xia Guoqiu was guessed and hurriedly said, "If my father-in-law really intends to re-return...Return to Ming Dynasty, why not take advantage of this time to rush south to annihilate Prince Ying's troops in one fell swoop. Whether it is to capture or kill a prince, such great military achievements are enough to give my father-in-law a foothold in Jianxing Dynasty... My son-in-law has many old acquaintances in Yingtian Prefecture, and now he has some authority in the Jianxing Prefecture. If my father-in-law agrees that my son-in-law can go to Yingtian Prefecture to handle everything in person..."

Unfortunately, this is wrong.

Wu Sangui shook his head and said, "Jianxing Chao? It's just a puppet, and the authority is in the hands of that person... I have thought about Guiming, but..."

Speaking of this, Wu Sangui subconsciously raised his hand and touched the upper part of his forehead. His hair was already ripped out, and suddenly said hatefully: "I remember when the former lord gave him the title of Xibo, that little man was still in Jiading as a district sentry officer, but six years later, he transformed into the King of Wu, and he owned more than thirty palaces in the southeast... Gu originally thought that he would raise his hair and change his clothes and respect Emperor Jianxing as the common ruler of the world, but he sent people to test several times, but there was no news... It seems that the rumors are true. That person is not easy to meet. Emperor Jianxing is willing to accept the Lord, and he is afraid that he will compete with that person in the future!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood.

No wonder the prince started to keep his hair these days, and asked the guards around him to keep it. It turned out that he had already made Gui Ming's plan.

But the decision has not been made for a long time, and the reason lies with the King of Wu.

According to rumors, the King of Wu "robbed the rich and helped the poor" and severely punished the Qingming ministers. Even the prince was very afraid. It seemed that this was true.

Hu Guozhu said melancholy: "If this road is not clear, why don't my father-in-law choose another method... For example, continue to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty? With more than 100,000 tigers in the hands of the prince, and cooperate with Prince Ying to win this battle... I would not dare to treat my father-in-law badly!"

Unexpectedly, Wu Sangui looked at Hu Guozhu with disgust, "How much land and population does the Qing Dynasty have? Now that the Northern Expedition Army has occupied Xuzhou, it will continue to eat northward. This is equivalent to cutting off the connection between the king and the court. Where does the food and salary come from? Where does the equipment come from? And to the east, the court has lost the Andongwei, Qingzhou, and Tianjinwei. It is estimated that it will take not long before they will all change their surnames... The Qing Dynasty is coming soon!"

Hu Guozhu looked panicked, and Xia Guoqiu was flirting with each other, "Brother Guozhu, what the prince said is the most reasonable. Besides, Prince Ying Ajige is not a good person. Although Henan is large, once Prince Ying gains power, he is afraid he will not be able to tolerate the prince!"

These words made Wu Sangui glance at Prime Minister Xia, and Prime Minister Xia was delighted. It seemed that he had guessed the prince's thoughts again.

So he continued, "When Wu Zheng and Ajige compete for food, if you are not careful, you will be exhausted... Therefore, the son-in-law thought, why not sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight. When both sides are in trouble, the father-in-law will lead his troops to go south. At that time, everyone will have to pay a lot of money to win over the father-in-law... We can enjoy the fruits without spending one soldier, but I wonder what the father-in-law wants?"

Wu Sangui Xuexue glanced at Xia Guoxiang and said leisurely: "What else can you do... I can only do this first."

After saying that, he got up, "It's all gone."

The Ma Sanbao said anxiously: "Then... I dare to ask the prince, how will the last general explain the army that has already assembled?"

Wu Sangui frowned.

Prime Minister Xia hurriedly replied: "The general is going back and comforting him."

Ma Sanbao was indeed a rough man, and he asked, "Then... prince, are the soldiers still raising their hair?"

Wu Sangui suddenly turned around, pointed at Ma Sanbao and said, "The late emperor has great kindness to me... I have worked hard and have been serving the thief for eight years. I always think about the truth of the Fengming room... You, an ignorant and reckless man, dare to understand my intentions... The person who came, dragged him out to thirty sticks!"

Ma Sanbao was dragged out, and no one in the hall pleaded for him.

Amid the sound of scepter beating outside the hall, Wu Sangui shook his sleeves and shouted: "No matter what... how the King of Wu treats the Lord, I will regain my heart for the Ming Dynasty. Heaven and earth can be used to pass on the Order. I will raise my hair today. When the time is right, I will change my clothes and hats, support the royal family, and promote the Ming Dynasty!"

"We'll obey the order!"
