Chapter 2146 1.35 The only way
Lobbyists have become a special profession at the latest in the Spring and Autumn Period. Among them, the best ones are called "parent and transcendents". "Personal and transcendents are used to attack the weak; paramounts are used to attack the weak by one thing."
Zhu Zhi of Zheng State resigned to the Qin army with his three inches of tongue (Note ①). Su Qin and Zhang Yi joined forces and left their names in history.
Jingchun said: "Gongsun Yan, isn't Zhang Yi sincere? He was angry and the princes were afraid, and the rest of the world was extinguished."
"Records of the Grand Historian" also says: "Li Sheng was always a lobbyist and sent vassals." Li Shiqi was ordered to go to Qi State, without spending a single army or a soldier, and persuaded King Tian Guang of Qi to surrender to King Liu Bang of Han to more than 70 cities.
During the Three Kingdoms period, lobbyists were also common. The most famous one was that Zhuge Liang lobbled Sun Quan and joined forces with Wu to fight against Cao. Only then did the Red Cliff fight against the Three Kingdoms in one battle. It was to continue the life of the Han Dynasty for fifty years.
It is undeniable that lobbyists are a high-risk profession. If they have disagreements, they will behead themselves at the least, and they will be killed at the worst. However, the profit is so great that some people are willing to take risks and die and be born. It is just because "wealth and honor are sought in danger."
Dong Chong removed Yongle's copper accumulation, but there was no soldier. So he was willing to be a jester and beautify the emperor. He was good at everything and waited for the price to sell. He became the most effective and the only way to do it.
Only when the snipe and clam fight can you benefit the fisherman. If Yuan Shu attacks Guangling, Tao Qian is frightened and died. Lu Bu is attacked by front and back, and Xuzhou changes his master. Wang Yun loses foreign aid. The Supreme Duke fights, and the Cao family wins. Unify the Zhendu court and the country. How can Dong Chong still be able to take the lee from the fire?
Therefore, he went against the rules and acted. He sent the chief secretary Zhang Xun to lobby Yuan Shu and attacked Jiangxia, but not Xu.
Yuan Shu smiled and said, "I have known all the requests from the two families."
Later, I will invite Wang Lang, a famous scholar in Xuzhou, to the mansion.
"If you attack Xu, what will Cao Gong give me?"
"I wish to serve the military investment of 100 million yuan." Wang Lang replied.
"The Military Prophecy says: 'There must be a hanging fish under the fragrant bait; there must be a brave man under the heavy reward'. I am willing to serve Cao Gong." Yuan Shu made a sound.
"General Yuan, Gao Yi." Wang Lang's trip was fortunate that he was not disgraced.
He sent Wang Lang away and invited Zhang Xun to the mansion.
"If you attack Jing, what will the cavalry give?"
"I wish to offer tens of millions of treasures," Zhang Xun replied.
"In this way, let's go back to Dong and Yuan, and I'm willing to be driven by it." Yuan Shu said happily. There are 10 million yuan in Glazed Treasures, which can be regarded as 100 million yuan.
"Thank you General Yuan." Zhang Xun did not humiliate his order.
After seeing off Zhang Xun, the chief clerk Yan Xiang asked secretly: "Ming Gong, what do you mean?"
"The troops from the two routes were divided, attacking Jing and attacking Xu." Yuan Shu was full of energy.
The so-called "get money and eliminate disasters with others." Yuan Gonglu's fourth generation and three masters could not get fat after being told.
"This..." The officials looked at each other in a glance. They said that they would not refuse the people, who would be the only one who would be left with Yuan Highway?
"Translator of King Chen to ask for food, grass and supplies. The emperor (Horse of Hefei) asked for supplies, food and supplies." Yuan Shu said again.
"Hey." The group of men accepted.
The two sides are good at everything, and the two sides are all good at it. Yuan Shu and the tiger are in the Yangtze River and Huai River, and they are united in the mountains and boundaries. I will take you and ask for you. How happy it is.
Xuzhou Guangling City, Zhou Mu Mansion.
"Meet the Duke of Ming." He left Mi Zhu and was ordered to enter the mansion.
"Zi Zhong is not etiquette." Tao Qian had just recovered from illness, so he opened the government to govern the government and did not dare to have a day's memorial.
When Mi Zhu got up and sat down, Tao Qian then entrusted his confidant with his confidant: "Zi Zhong went to Ji Kingdom and was familiar with his subordinates. He had two sons, the eldest son Shang and the second son Ying, both of whom were not the lords of troubled times. When the rivers and seas were thawed, Zi Zhong went north with his two sons and entered Ji Kingdom to study."
Mi Zhu understood: "I am humble and dare not obey orders."
Tao Qian also reminded: "Where will the two sons go? Let's listen to the order of King Ji. Do not force it." Tao Qian's subtitle was not to refer to the two sons entering school, but to suggest his life after his death. Whether the father could die and the son succeeded him, and to elect the two sons as the governor of Xuzhou. They were all in the thought of King Ji. In other words, this was a entrusting an orphan.
Mi Zhu bowed again: "My Duke's words are kept in mind."
It is no wonder that Tao Qian secretly instructed that Mi Zhu and Cao Bao had a favor with King Ji. He paved the way for his two sons. As Tao Qian said, although Tao merchants and Tao Ying were not enough to manage chaos, they could be calm. As long as King Ji was his backer, they could be safe for a lifetime.
The so-called "no reward is not received without merit." If you ask others for something, you will have something to give. Tao Qian uses himself to judge others and presents his heart to Xuzhou to King Ji, which is obvious at this time.
"The world is divided into three parts, and the three marquises are full of strength. However, when I look at it, my uncle and nephew are not the lords of Zhongxing." Tao Qian expressed his thoughts: "Just like the children's songs in the north, 'A old in the South Pole, one zhang green; the father of the East King, the three marquis of Han'. The Han Dynasty must be obtained by King Ji."
Mi Zhu Su Rong bowed: "What Ming Gong said is very true."
"Xuzhou is connected to mountains and seas, and is a place where four battles have not been war for a long time. The rice is abundant and the people are rich. They are attracted by all the heroes. There are Lu Bu in the north and Yuan Shao in the south. Yuan Shu in the west and the sea in the east. Four countries and one county, sixty-two towns, 470,000 households (476,117), and 2.80 million (2791,683). They cannot be guarded if they are not wise masters."
After a brief breath, Tao Qian continued to say, "Since the King's Grand Tutor is easy to seize the country, Xuzhou is willing to be used by Zhendu, and it is wrapped up in the dispute between Shanggong. Wars are everywhere, and Xuzhou is difficult to save. I have already been with the former Langya prime minister, Liu Kui, the former East China Sea prime minister, Ji Lian, the former Pei prime minister, Yuan Zhong, the former Beihai prime minister, Kong Rong, the Lu prime minister, Song Qi, etc., dozens of famous scholars in the country were planned to report to persuade King Ji. Ascend the throne and become emperor, and the Han Dynasty three times."
"This..." Mi Zhu was shocked.
"Although King Ji does not want to be arbitrage, he has a secret relationship with us," Tao Qian hits the words.
Throughout history, following the dragon and advocating advance are all great achievements.
Tao Qian knew that there was not much time. He said that the following statement was to protect his descendants at the time of death.
Hearing that "the former Langye prime minister was Yinde, the former Donghai prime minister Liu Kui, the former Pengcheng prime minister Ji Lian, and the former Pei prime minister Yuan Zhong" were all prime ministers of Huai and Si countries. Mi Zhu asked in surprise: "Do you dare to ask Ming Gong, is this the intention of the King of Huai and Si sect?"
"That's right." Tao Qian was shocked.
"The kings of Huai and Si have always been the leader of King Chen, and the horse is the leader." It is related to the 2.8 million people in Xuzhou, and their lives. How could Mi Zhu not investigate the reason in detail: "Previously, King Chen sent an envoy north to carry out the ceremony of three persuasions and three resignations. King Ji had already sent an edict to the world and did not want to be emperor. I thought that King Chen would make his own decision. Now, Duke Ming also said that the kings of Huai and Si were looking for King Ji. How could he explain it?"
"Zi Zhong doesn't know, are you meeting the world?" Tao Qian asked with a smile.
"So that's it." How could Mi Zhu not wake up from his generation of wealthy merchants? Except for Kong Rong, the prime minister of Beihai and Song Qi, the people who jointly persuaded him to advance were all former prime ministers.
Even if he persuaded him to express his conspiracy to the world, King Chen would face him, and the kings of all the kings could argue: because he was easily seized by the king's grandfather, everyone took revenge on his own. It had nothing to do with the orphan king.
If King Ji sends out a letter to the world and attacks King Chen and defeats him.
There were also former prime ministers who advised King Ji for the king of the country. What's more, if the Supreme Duke fights, Wang Yun will be defeated. The army of Ji State crosses the river and sweeps down Guandong. The kings of all countries will order the prime ministers to regain their position. They will be persuaded by the kings to give instructing them.
In this way, no matter how the situation changes, the kings of Huai and Si can be invincible.
It is also like Tao Qian's statement on his deathbed.
In troubled times, those who can be the master of others should not be underestimated.
