Raid

Chapter 323 Persuade to surrender
"Sir, please tell me." Gu Lingxu couldn't help but look serious.

Zhan Qirui didn't give a shit, and immediately said: "Guhou is only separated by a river from Nanjin, so we know that the eldest princess of Nanjin came to the frontier in person, and Nanjin also began to dispatch troops and generals, sharpening their swords."

Gu Lingxu's eyes trembled, but he didn't know.These days, he has to entangle with Xirong outside and fight with the imperial court inside, but he forgets that there are fierce tigers in the south, watching them.

Seeing him like this, Zhan Qirui also knew that he didn't know what was going on. He sighed softly, and continued: "Emperor Hongxing of the Southern Jin Dynasty is a great man with great talent and ambition, and everyone knows his ambition. Princess Jinning is also a rare woman in the world. With such an arrangement, Lord Hou also understands their intentions."

Gu Lingxu nodded. When his father was around, he told him that sooner or later the Southern Jin Dynasty would become a serious problem for the Northern Qi confidants. Suddenly, he understood Zhan Qirui's intentions, "You asked me to seek help from foreign enemies? My Gu family is full of loyalty. , You told me to defect to the enemy and treason."

Zhan Qirui: "..."

Qin Qinghong scoffed slightly when he heard the words, and then laughed.

Gu Lingxu's face darkened, "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Qinghong shook his head, seeing an outsider here, it was not easy to mock him openly, so he sat down and whispered beside him: "Why don't you let this one be a loyal minister after all the rebels are turned into traitors?"

Gu Lingxu's ears tickled, and he pushed the person away. Qin Qinghong, who is exquisite in figure, knew that this person would do this, so he dodged and dodged.

Zhan Qirui: "... Gu Hou."

"Huh?" Gu Lingxu withdrew his gaze from Qin Qinghong, and later realized that it was not serious to do so, thinking that scholars dislike such behavior the most, so he quickly gave Qin Qinghong a look, and said sternly : "Gu is rude, please forgive Zhan Langjun."

Zhan Qirui couldn't talk about him at this time, and continued to persuade: "The Southern Jin Dynasty now sends Jinning Princess to take charge of the military affairs. Although this princess has been hiding from the world for many years, she only rejoined the Southern Jin Dynasty half a year ago. But she has always had Xianming, the state capital she governs is also Qingming Yanran. It can be seen that she loves the people like a son. Besides, she can call the southwestern princes for her own use, and let Emperor Hongxing give her prince a favor. It must be quite good wrist.

If you ask her for help.First of all, her subordinates are all capable soldiers, and she has dealt with Xi Rong more, so she will definitely be able to repel Xi Rong.Second, the coach is wise, so don't worry about her harming the people. "

"But she is also eyeing, ambitious, and wants to devour wolves and drive tigers away, for fear of attracting wolves into the house." Gu Lingxu looked hesitant.

"Master Hou is confused." Zhan Qirui interrupted Gu Lingxu. He naturally knew Gu Lingxu's ambitions, but as Gu Lingxu's former counselor, he also knew clearly that Gu Lingxu was a general, but Absolutely not the Lord of England.

If he is the crown prince and has a reputation for righteousness, that would be fine, maybe he can achieve a great cause.But as a warlord, his personality is greatly inappropriate.

Of course, it was impossible for him to make the words so clear, "Now Gu Hou is in trouble, and he is powerless to recover by himself. Gu Hou Gaoyi is willing to sacrifice his life for the people of Xichang to Wangjing. Dao, the eunuchs are in chaos, the political parties in the court are fighting each other, attacking each other, the border is full of sorrow, and the people are in dire straits. Isn't Gu Hou dissatisfied with the court for a long time? Since they are all ministers, why not seek the real master?"

Gu Lingxu was slightly taken aback, but his heart was already shaken a little.

I also heard Zhan Qirui say: "My country is unstable, and uprisings are frequent, and the people are struggling to live. However, the Southern Jin Dynasty has been in peace for a long time. For the world, and for Gu Hou himself, going to the Southern Jin Dynasty is better than submitting to the court? If Gu Hou Touxiao, one can use the soldiers of the Southern Jin Dynasty to expel Xi Rong and preserve Xichang. Second, he can use the wealth of the Southern Jin Dynasty to nourish the people. Third, he can avoid wars in the future and the loss of life. Isn't it beautiful?"

Gu Lingxu pursed his lips and remained silent. He refused to vote because he couldn't pass the test in his heart. His Gu family has always been a courtier of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but now he wants to be a courtier of the Southern Jin Dynasty. How could he be willing.

Even though he had a self-reliance and confidant in the past, it is different after all, but what Zhan Qirui said is really reasonable.

He still had to think about it carefully. Thinking of this, he didn't give a formal response, but changed the subject and said, "Even if this Marquis has such a heart, it might not be easy. The Southern Jin Dynasty is waiting for death. I'm afraid Qiren is also on guard. If it's a time of peace , if she wants to go north, she will definitely avoid Xichang first. But the situation in Xichang is serious now, and Princess Jinning may not want to come to share a piece of the pie."

Princess Jinning is indeed famous, but she is an enemy army and a politician.Her virtue corresponds to her own people.If it was in a different place, he would definitely not let it go so kindly, and would definitely find a way to get a share of the action.This has nothing to do with fame.

"What kind of a piece of soup is more attractive than the three states in Gu Hou's hands, and the [-] soldiers and horses in Xichang?" Zhan Qirui retorted.

Gu Lingxu was dumbfounded for a moment, but he forgot.

Seeing that Gu Ling was speechless, Zhan Qirui continued: "As for how to connect with him, Gu Hou may not know, there is a long history beside Princess Jinning."

"So what?" Gu Lingxu was puzzled.

"This person's name is Rong Zhi." Zhan Qirui said slowly.

Gu Lingxu's expression moved slightly, "He's not dead?"

After Mrs. Ning and Rong Zhi went to Xiaqiu, the two disappeared. Later, the Hong Mansion tunnel collapsed, and the two disappeared. He sent people to search for a long time, but they couldn't find anyone.And the Hong Mansion was in Xiaqiu again - that was the stronghold of the Zhou family, and he couldn't get in with his hands.And Zhou Shi refused to tell the news, so he was firm that Rong Zhi died in Xiaqiu.

I feel very sorry.

"good."

"How did you know?" Gu Lingxu was puzzled.

"A few days ago, he wrote a book to me and informed him of his current identity. I think it is for today." The letter written after Xichang fell into trouble, it seems that Rong Zhi was sure that the court would definitely treat him at this time. Seeing Gu Lingxu open his mouth like a lion, he wrote the letter just to give hints and ask him to persuade Gu Lingxu.

"Rong Lang is really talented." Gu Lingxu said regretfully.

Since Rong Zhi chose to join the princess of the Southern Dynasty, that Princess of the Southern Dynasty is also worthy of entrustment.If he chooses to serve, whether it is for Xichang or himself, it is better than surrendering to the court.

If he works, he must have no worries. The only question is whether he is willing or not.

Gu Lingxu was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Sir, let's go back first, this is a big matter, Gu has to think about it again, and I will definitely give you a reply in a day. "

"I hope Gu Hou will think it through soon."

Zhan Qirui nodded solemnly, knowing that this matter should not be rushed, he left Xiangcheng Hou's mansion.
