The king behind the empress

Chapter 255 Yuan Shi's Choice
Just when Mo Zizai was preparing food and starting to go on an expedition, Bai Changqiu, who was far away in South County, also received the news that Mo Zizai was going to go on an expedition in person, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"This is not comfortable, I am really looking for a dead end."

Bai Changqiu's mood was a little excited. He originally thought that he could eat ten thousand Yulin soldiers and then muddy the water in Dazhou, but he didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains.

"The young master said so."

The strong man behind Bai Changqiu is called Baita, and he is Bai Changqiu's guard. Hearing Bai Changqiu's words now, he also showed a smile on his face, "It seems that Mo Zizi really regards us as a mob. Dare to go out with the army."

"If we can capture him, we will definitely get a lot of benefits from the court."

"Catch..."

Although they haven't fought yet, the confident Bai Changqiu has already regarded Mo Zizai as something in his pocket, and is already thinking about how to deal with Mo Zizai in his heart.

He hesitated for a long time in his heart, a little uncertain whether he should kill Mo Zizai, or use Mo Zizai to exchange some resources from the court.

Needless to say, the option of exchanging resources, although the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty has declined, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. As Mo Zizai, the resources exchanged can still make his power grow a lot.

And if it wasn't for not changing and choosing to kill Mo Zizai directly, the power of the Great Zhou would drop to the bottom in an instant, and the situation would immediately become what they were most looking forward to.

But there is a downside to this, that is, after killing Mo Zizai, the Great Zhou court will definitely focus on them. If the Great Zhou court recklessly attacks their own side, the loss will be too great.

It was too important at this time, so Bai Changqiu hesitated for a long time, but was unable to make a decision.

"Forget it, don't think about him for now."

Bai Changqiu simply put this question aside, "We'd better ask the teacher for his opinion after we catch this matter."

He put Mo Zizai's question aside first, and then asked Baita, "Jiang Xiu, how is it now?"

"Much more honest."

Baita replied: "Qi Xiu killed four of the seven heavenly kings of the White Lotus Sect, and Jiang Xiu has been frightened out of his wits."

"In addition to the fact that Qi Xiu broke the city last time, if the young master happened to be there, I'm afraid even he would have to be accounted for in Qi Xiu's hands, so now he basically won't disobey the young master's wishes."

"Oh, the Seven Heavenly Kings..."

Bai Changqiu sneered, obviously disdainful of the so-called seven heavenly kings, but he didn't say much, just said indifferently: "Now there are only three leaders left in the White Lotus Sect, Zhu Cheng is ours, Jiang Xiu I was scared out of my wits, and there was only Meng Xiong left, who would not dare to disobey my will. "

"In this way, the White Lotus Sect can be regarded as falling into my control."

Baita asked with a puzzled expression, "Young Master, why didn't you directly control the White Lotus Sect?"

From Baita's point of view, with his young master's skill and strength, he only needs to use a little trick to send someone to directly replace Jiang Xiu and Meng Xiong, so why go around such a big circle.

"It's not necessary."

Bai Changqiu shook his head, with a look of contempt for the White Lotus Sect, "For me, the White Lotus Sect is just a bait."

"All I need is for them to bring the Habayashi Army over. In this regard, what they do is no different from manipulating the White Lotus Sect. As long as they listen to me in the general direction, then I don't need to bother to control it." them."

"And the most important point is that the teacher once told me a word, that is to plan this kind of thing, the more you do it, the more accidents are likely to happen, so as long as you can achieve your goal, there is no need to control everything in your hands. "

"Although I don't understand, since the master said this, there must be nothing wrong."

Hearing Bai Changqiu mention his teacher, Baita's face showed a trace of fanaticism, obviously he respected Bai Changqiu's teacher very much.

Seeing the reverence on Baita's face, Bai Changqiu smiled and said nothing. People like his teacher, let alone Baita, even he couldn't help admiring him sometimes.

However, thinking of what Baita said before about Qi Xiu breaking the city, the smile on his face subsided again, "This Qi Xiu has good abilities and is a general. After defeating the Habayashi Army, you can consider persuading him to surrender."

Even he hadn't expected Qi Xiu's cheating of the city before. If he hadn't happened to be in the city at that time, and Qi Xiu didn't know his existence, he didn't have much defense against him, and he was beaten by his iron guards. I was caught off guard, I am afraid that Jiang Xiu would have been taken down by him long ago.

"This Qi Xiu is really powerful."

The White Tower nodded approvingly. At that time, there were more than 2000 iron guards in the city, a large number of people, and their individual strength was stronger than those under Qi Xiu's command, and they still attacked secretly, but even in this situation, Qi Xiu Xiu was able to lead people to successfully break through, and he paid the price of more than 200 people. This command ability can be seen.

Just thinking that Qi Xiu is still in the city now, Baita asked hesitantly: "Young master, the people under Qi Xiu's command did not suffer much, what if they suddenly come out while we are fighting with the Habayashi army?"

"Don't worry, Qi Xiu will naturally be dealt with."

Bai Changqiu looked in the direction of Nanjun County City, and said calmly: "You will send someone to spread the news to the city later, and tell Yuan Lianghan that Mo Zizai is coming with the Habayashi Army, and he will know what to do."

"Yuan Lianghan?"

Baita had a faint understanding in his heart, and he didn't ask any more questions, and directly arranged for someone to deliver the news.

……

In the county town, Yuan Lianghan fell silent after reading the secret letter sent by Bai Changqiu.

Although Bai Changqiu's information only said that Mo Zizai was coming, he still saw what Bai Changqiu meant. He wanted the Yuan family to take action. City troops, don't let them have a chance to go out.

At this time, in Yuan Lianghan's study, besides Yuan Lianghan, there were three elders of the Yuan family.

After they read the secret letter, they were silent for a moment, and then one of the clan elders said with some concern: "Patriarch, if we do this, we will really be treason!"

"From the moment we sent out the food and grass, we have already conspired against us."

Another clan elder took over the conversation and said flatly: "He specifically emphasized that Mo Zizai is here just to tell us that we have no choice."

"We really don't have a choice."

Hearing the argument between the two, Yuan Lianghan said in a deep voice: "You should also know the strength of that kid from the Bai family."

"With that army, he is already invincible, so I chose to give them food and grass."

"Now, they are about to start a decisive battle with the imperial court. We can only choose to stand on one side. As for which side to stand on, don't I need to say more?"

The three clan elders were silent for a moment. The food and grass were their votes for that boy of the Bai family. Now that the court had offended them, they had only one way to go to hell.

"In that case, the Patriarch will let it go."

　I mean what I say, update on time.
