warring states careerist

Chapter 642

Although Tian Shan was indecisive, he was also a son who had received a complete noble education since he was a child, and he quickly understood the key to what the counselors said.

Now the coup in Linzi City is led by him.

However, his tone was too high and he used the word Ningmin, so that the people "really" because he wanted to Ningmin and benefit the people, so that the people actually organized and spontaneously captured several In what now appears to be an extremely critical location.

This made him a little restless.

If this continues, who will be the leader?
Is the people in Linzi spontaneous?Or him, the Tian family son?

At the stage when the people are really spontaneous, where will he, the son of the Tian family, be placed?At that time, if you really learn from the Shangqiu coup and come up with a law that can restrain the monarchy, then the gain will not be worth the loss.

Tian Yan also felt that what the counselors said was right, the problems between himself and his uncle were all about Tian Wu.Tian Wu is now "must die", so many things between him and his uncle can be resolved through discussion.The Linzi people who are now spontaneously organized are the serious troubles.

He pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind, and chose an eloquent man to enter the palace to have a talk with Tian He.

Talk about the current situation, talk about the future of the Tian family, and talk about how the Qi State in the ruins will go on after this great war.

…………

In the palace, when the eloquent scholar appeared in front of Tian He with a few nobles who fled from Yishui, Tian He angrily scolded: "How dare you come here, a rebellious thief?"

He reprimanded angrily, but his eyes were fixed on the few nobles who fled back from Yishui, he was shocked in his heart, and secretly said: "Could it be that Wu'er was captured by the Mo family?"

This is the possibility he fears the most, and the current situation is really beyond his expectations.

As the king of a country, the relationship between father and son can also be abandoned, but the premise is that he has other sons who can continue his blood.

Both he and Tian Shan belong to the Tian family, and Tian Shan's father and he are still brothers. They killed so many brothers together. However, when it comes to the power of the monarch, not to mention brothers, even parents Kill what you deserve.

Now Tian He is facing an ugly situation.

He is Qihou, but the prince is his elder brother's son.

He has a team, and his elder brother also left Tian Shan with a solid enough team.

Tian Wu is his most promising son, and the matriarchal clan is quite powerful. As long as he paves the way for his son, after his death, it is possible for his son to succeed in the coup d'état.

But if Tian Wu dies, then unless he completely defeats Tian Yan... not just defeating Tian Yan, but also completely eradicating the forces left by his elder brother, it is possible to let his young and useless sons sit on the throne. Stabilize the position of Marquis of Qi.

When he attacked Feidi last year, he asked Tian Wu to go out as the deputy commander, precisely for Tian Wu to gain enough seniority in the army.

Why is Wei Jian's position so stable?Why can Weiss let his younger brother be the prime minister and seal his youngest son to Zhongshan?Because Wei Jian went to war at the age of 16, both Xihe and Zhongshan made great military exploits, and the nobles in the army supported him, so Weiss didn't have to worry about his younger brother's rebellion, or his other sons learning "Quwo Daiyi".

Tian He's thinking is similar, but he never thought that this time-consuming change not only failed to make Tian Wu meritorious, but also formed a public enmity with the Mo family.

Now that the Pingyin Army and the Linzi Army have been destroyed, the two field armies in his hands are gone, and the political situation in the entire Qi State has been completely chaotic. road.

Tian Wu abandoned the Linzi Army and commanded [-] elite soldiers to break through Yishui, which Tian He actually appreciated.

Power can change fate, although he preached that the Yellow Emperor is the ancestor of the Tian clan, and that the Tian clan replaced Qi as the descendant of the Yellow Emperor who defeated Jiang Qi, the descendant of the Yan Emperor, but in fact he said that to the ignorant people, and he himself would not believe it.

At the moment when Yingyi and Father Liang were preempted by the Mohists, Tian Wu’s gilding trip was actually counterproductive. At this time, regardless of the infamy behind him, bringing troops back for a coup was the best and only choice.

He sticks to the palace by himself, which is something he didn't expect.

At this time, the peasants and the soldiers were united, but the peasants had no organization of soldiers, and they were in a state of disunity. The protagonists of the coup were still the private soldiers in their own hands.

The vassals of the vassals are not their own vassals, this is the essence of the feudal system, and it is also the reason why there are so many coups in the Spring and Autumn Period.The vassals of Han, Zhao and Wei were loyal to their patriarchs, but not to the Marquis of Jin. This is the same reason.

It’s just that Tian He used the way of thinking of the previous coup to consider this coup, but forgot to consider the power of the third-party Mohists, so that those scattered people were organized by the Mohists hidden in Linzi City, and He Tian Shan cooperated to control the city situation.

It is absolutely impossible to guard the palace and the city of three miles without Tian Wu's eight thousand elites.

Now many nobles are still waiting and watching, not sure which side they should stand on.

He attaches great importance to Tian Wu's news, not only the love between father and son, but also a huge factor in whether the nobles will continue to support it.

He cursed at the debaters sent by Tian Shan, but he had to worry about Tian Wu's survival in his heart.

The few nobles who fled back revealed the changes in Yishui in their eyes. They didn't know that Tian Wu wanted to go to North Korea with a group of cronies, they only knew that Tian Wu left behind eight thousand people and disappeared. .

These few nobles are all familiar, Tian He knows that these people are all followers of Tian Wu, since they said so, it is probably true in all likelihood.

After carefully inquiring about several details, Tian He was sure that the turmoil in Tian He's heart could not be expressed on his face, so he forced himself to be calm.

Seeing this, the debater suddenly said: "It is rumored that Young Master Wu has entered the palace and hid in the garden. Young Master Shan is doing justice for Ning people this time. The people are determined and don't want to fight again. Why don't you hand over Young Master Wu, thinking that Sheji?"

Tian He was startled, he knew that Tian Wu hadn't come back at all.

And if Tian Wu really escaped back, how could Tian Yan send someone to talk?Things have come to this point, even if he surrenders "Tian Wu", how can he continue to be the Marquis of Qi?
With Tian Yan's winning ticket in hand, could it be that it was really for "Ning Min" and just to kill Tian Wu?No one is a fool, they are all aristocrats, and this truth in the coup is still understandable.

However, after being startled for a while, Tian He immediately understood what the opposite party meant.

Tian Wu was not in the palace, he knew it, and Tian Shan knew it, but the people didn't know it, and the Mohists didn't know it.

Tian Wu is still young, but Tian He is the one who had been involved in the coup for a long time. How could he not know the current situation? The only way for Tian Wu to survive is to bring his troops back from Yishui?The rest of the road is a dead end.

But the road is a dead end, but people do not necessarily have to die.

Tian Wu, the son of Qihou and the deputy commander of Wucheng Tucheng, had died at the moment he escaped in Yishui.

But as Tian He's son, Tian Wu, a real person, still has the possibility to survive.

The beloved son of the parents has a far-reaching plan for it, and it is precisely because of the far-reaching plan that Tian Wu was asked to levy land as the deputy commander.

Now, a word from the debater on the other side made Tian He, Qihou who started his career in a coup d'état, once again touch the soft part of his heart as a father's love.

Tian He was noncommittal, and asked carefully what happened to those nobles who had fled back to Yishui. After confirming that Tian Wu had indeed fled, he said, "Is there anything wrong with a father loving his son? Has the words of no father really made the world without virtue and love?"

Seeing Tian He's words, the debater secretly rejoiced, knowing that Tian He had grasped the key point, so he didn't say anything.

After Tian He said a few more words, he retreated the crowd, leaving only a few confidant guards, and invited the debater into the secret room for a talk.

When everyone retreated, Tian Hecai said: "I was wrong. This time, the advance and retreat are well-founded, and the offense and defense are measured, which is beyond my expectation."

The debater immediately said: "Your Majesty's words are absurd. I have made suggestions for you, but the people took down some important points spontaneously. At that time, you and I didn't know what was important. We only realized those points after we used them. Important. This is why the young master sent me to talk with the king."

Needless to say, the words were too clear, Tian He was surprised when he heard the words, and was overjoyed again.

The happy thing is that my vision of seeing people is correct, Tian Yan's ability is within my calculations, and several important places in the city were not planned by Tian Yan's side.

Surprisingly, the debater revealed too much content in this sentence.The nobles are still watching, but the people who are scattered like sand have been organized?Who organized it?Whose eyes saw the key points of the coup in the city?Who actually wants the snipe and the clam to fight for the fisherman's benefit?
After a little thought, Tian He raised his head and sighed, half-closed his eyes and said: "The ambition of the Mo family is so great that the princes don't know and can't guard against... Back then, Qi and Mo joined forces to fight against Yue, and Hu Feizi entered Linzi in a snowstorm. Who would have thought that in just a few years, the city of Linzi The Mo family has already taken root?"

"Those who work with their minds govern others, and those who work with their hands rule with others. If those who work with their hands want to work with their hearts to govern the country, the world will be in chaos."

The debater said: "That's why the son sent me here. My lord, Yingyi is only a hundred miles away from Linzi... Even if the son is not your son, isn't he a descendant of the Tian family?"

"If you are not of my race, their hearts must be different. Jiang Qizong Temple, would you go to sacrifice? But nephews can sacrifice to uncles."

"Once the mob revolts, the army of Yingyi will arrive in an instant, and there will be 'righteousness' imposed on them. When the mob riots, with the Mohism's righteousness of having no king and no father, Tian's sacrifices will probably be cut off."

Hearing this, Tian He snorted and said, "Jiang Qi's ancestral temple has not been extinct. The ancestors had no virtue. I put them on the island and made them eat a city to worship Jiang Qi. Shang Zhou lost his morality, and the people of Yin had Songs." With North Korea, this is benevolence, I, Tianhe, have not lost my virtue, and Jiang Qi has not stopped offering sacrifices, so don't talk nonsense."

When the debater heard this, he also understood that Tian He had let go, or that he was already negotiating terms.

Tian He said that he did not lose his morals, and seemed to attach great importance to "etiquette", but in fact he wanted to talk about benefits.

It's not that it's impossible for a nephew to sacrifice to his uncle, but after all, it's not as good as a son's sacrifice to his father.

Besides, Jiang Qi still has a feudal city. If your coup succeeds, I, Tianhe, will definitely be under house arrest just like how Shun Fangyao was back then. It is also common for those exiled monarchs to eventually return to their country. You don’t want to kill me. It's also impossible to let me move around, I admit it, who made me lose?
But... my sons, you can't kill them all, can you?Speaking of being for the Tian clan, his own son is also the Tian clan.
