I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 57 The little fox is too young, the old fox is old
Zhiyao's news here is a bit delayed.

The Zhi family had already started contacting the Wei family a month ago. After some exchanges and discussions, the two parties officially entered the final stage of alliance negotiations.

The reason why it is called a negotiation is that some interests need to be clarified first, including the delineation of the sphere of influence after the end of the civil war, and the handling of the "inheritance" of the Fan family and the Zhongxing family, and even the replacement of fiefdoms.

Only after talking about the above things, do we need to talk about whether the Zhi family or the Wei family is the main player in the alliance.

Now the progress of the alliance is stuck on Zhizhu Yaobao Zhongxing.

In other words, Zhixuan hoped that Wei Lu would maintain the same position as Zhishi, strive to pull Zhongxingshi out of the list of rebels, and try his best to ensure that Zhongxingshi would not lose his fiefdom.

Zhishi wants to keep Zhongxingshi?Leaving aside the question of whether the Zhonghang clan can be removed from the list of rebels, how could the Wei clan give up the meat that fell to his mouth, and let the Zhongxing clan become Zhi clan's loyal follower.

In such a state, the alliance between the Wei family and the Zhi family, even if the Zhi family is the eldest brother, and the Wei family and the Zhongxing family are the younger brothers, and there are Zhi and Zhongxing families in the alliance, wouldn't the Wei family be crushed to death? ?

In that case, the alliance would not be reliable at all. To put it bluntly, the Wei family could not trust the Zhi family with the help of the Zhongxing family, and the Wei family would have nothing to fight for some conflicting interests!
Therefore, Wei Lu didn't want to keep the Zhongxing clan, at least he didn't want to keep the Zhongxing clan who still had a complete fiefdom, and decided that it would be impossible to play happily with the Zhi clan.

"Your Majesty also doesn't want the Zhongxing family to survive." Zhibi felt that it was really too difficult for him.

However, Zhiyao knew that Zhibi was not so determined to keep the Zhongxing family, it was just that she couldn't get rid of her face.

In fact, the same is true. No matter how much the Zhi family comes from the Xun family with the Zhongxing family, no matter how fake Zhixuan pretends to be, he must show an attitude of protecting the Zhongxing family and avoid too many rumors about the Zhi family. .

"Zu..., Your Majesty, Zhong Jun Zuo, Shang Jun Zuo, and Xia Jun Zuo are all opposed." Zhiyao was talking nonsense, but then said again: "Zhong Jun Zuo, Shang Jun Zuo, Xia Jun Zuo The generals will not allow it, but the king may allow it."

This kind of self-contradictory statement is a bit confusing, isn't it?
What the monarch wants most now is definitely to restore the pattern of twelve ministers, and he doesn't want to see only four ministers left.

With fewer ministers, there will only be two legions left in the country, which is undoubtedly very detrimental to Jin.

The monarch hopes that there will be more positions, mainly because there are too many "Qings" to divide and win over, so that once the four "Qings" reach a consensus, they will immediately change the state of Jin.

It makes sense!The fewer people there are, the fewer differences there will be, and the more people there will be more differences.

In the same way, as a "Yuan Rong", Zhixuan definitely does not want to have only four positions left, otherwise Zhao, Wei and Han will unite, even if he is a "Yuan Rong", he will not be able to continue playing.

But Zhixuan shook his head and said, "Your Majesty will not allow Fan and Zhongxing to survive again."

So, apart from Zhi, Zhao, Wei, and Han, is there any family in Jin that is strong enough to become a high-ranking family?
Zhiyao thought about it, no matter whether it is the lord of the public clan or the rest of the middle nobles, none of them are qualified to be "Qing".

"Your Majesty wants to call the Fox family back." Zhixuan said.

Fox?Is it the family that couldn't get along in the state of Jin and turned into a Di person?A certain generation of their patriarchs did indeed have the position of "Qing" in the Jin Kingdom, but later failed in the internal struggle and fled, and they have been away from the country for too long.

The monarch recalled the Fox family who became part of Di Ren?Considering that the Fox family is a descendant of Tang Shuyu, there seems to be some reason.

Who is Tang Shuyu?He was the first king of the state of Jin, and he was granted the title of "Tang".And "Tang" is actually the predecessor of Jin, which was changed to "Jin" after Tang Shuyu's son Xie came to the throne.

"It's so absurd..." Zhiyao had a look of disbelief.

Seven or eighty years earlier, the Fox family was still considered a member of Zhu Xia, but after fleeing, they were repeatedly turned into aliens, and now they are completely alien, the difference is that they have not been expelled from Zhu Xia's "household registration".

The monarch is completely insane for thinking of this trick!
Don't forget that for any alien race in the current era, their combat effectiveness is really inferior to that of the Xia kingdoms, and the degree of collapse should not be too shocking.

To put it bluntly, a "brigade" of the Jin State can easily defeat more than [-] aliens, and an "army" of the Jin State can defeat the coalition forces of all the surrounding aliens without logistical problems.

Therefore, even if the Fox family is willing to return to the Jin state, the Fox family, which has basically been completely transformed into a Hu family, can pull out an "army" of troops. It may not be difficult to form an army, but how much actual combat power can it have?
Zhiyao asked his retainers and servants to retreat.

Considering that Zhibi had already stated that Zhiyao's orders were his orders at home, the retainers and servants did not forget this, and all retreated according to orders.

"Zuguo wants to protect the Zhongxing family?" Zhiyao asked.

Seeing that Zhiyao made people retreat, Zhixuan knew what to ask, and replied: "You can protect it, but if you don't protect it, you can't let the city of Zhonghang clan fall into the hands of others."

Well, it's realistic enough, and it seems extremely greedy.

It's just, who told Zhibi to be Zhiyao's grandfather, Zhiyao must support Zhibi's decision 100%.

"The Wei family has no such thoughts, and is deeply afraid of the Xun family's reappearance." Zhi Li was talking about the alliance between the Zhi family and the Zhongxing family.

Zhiyao thought to herself: "If you're not afraid, you'll be weird. Anyone else would be afraid. So, my grandfather is using this to test Wei's bottom line, so that he can clearly distinguish what kind of game he should play with Wei."

Zhixuan said: "If the Chinese army Zuo Ke'mo, I will find another general to discuss, and no longer try to ensure the survival of the Zhongxing clan. I will allege with the Wei clan and send troops to attack the guards together. After victory, I will attack Zheng."

Just say it!
The thing is that after Zhiyao started to show off, Zhixuan seemed to be old and had a bad IQ and didn't care about things. In fact, it was just to give Zhiyao a chance to show off, and she had already figured out what to do.

Zhiyao knew that she must attack the Wei State, and took the opportunity to fight for the Song State.

The reason why after defeating Wei State was to fight Zheng State instead of marching into Qi State, there is a high probability that Lu State will learn a big lesson first, and then it is more beneficial for Zhishi to attack Zheng State.

To put it bluntly, a wise man wants to use power for personal gain.

Seeing that Zhiyao wanted to speak, Zhixuan asked first, "Yao lived in 'Xintian' for a long time or went to 'Father Huang'."

What do you mean?
It means that Zhiyao's performance is already impressive enough, and it's time to "cool down" and reduce the sense of presence.

Next is the time for Zhiyao's performance. He still hopes that Zhiyao can watch more and learn more, and don't develop a mentality that can act recklessly just because he thinks he is smart.

And the reason why Zhiyao gave Zhiyao two options is because "Father Huang" made Zhiyao a lot of new things, otherwise Zhiyao would just stay in "Xintian" honestly.

After figuring out the situation, Zhiyao didn't feel any sense of loss, and decided to go to "Father Huang" to stay first, and return to "Xintian" to participate in activities if necessary.
