Nine Hundred and Sixty One: The Calm Before the Storm (3)

Feng Jue sighed, and although Cheng Jing frowned, he didn't say anything.

Expected result.

Huang Song's wife is also a resourceful woman, she is different from ordinary women in boudoir.

The lord of their family will not shy away from this lady at all when discussing matters, and sometimes he will listen to the other party's suggestions, which shows that he loves and values ​​them.

Cheng Jing said, "Since this is the case, we have to find another way. The head of the Meng family is as cunning as a fox, full of ambitions, and will use any means to achieve his goals. He is not an easy person to deal with. Instead of being wary of the other party's schemes in the future, it is better not to fight against him from the beginning." Be with him."

Huang Song frowned, and said, "If you don't agree, then you are fighting against the Meng family?"

The Meng family in Cangzhou is really not easy to mess with.

Huang Song is getting more and more wings now, but compared with the big men like the Cangzhou Meng family, he is still a little young.

If the two parties form an alliance, Huang Song needs to bear certain risks, but there are definitely many benefits.

If they refused the alliance, it would be equivalent to pushing the Meng family to the opposite position and making an enemy for nothing.

Now I can only listen to what the two confidants have to say.

Cheng Jing said, "My lord, have you ever thought about why the Meng family suddenly wants to form an alliance with us at this juncture?"

Huang Song shook his head. The Meng family in Cangzhou was hard to guess, and he hadn't researched it.

Cheng Jing said firmly, "I'm afraid that drunkards don't want to drink. They formed an alliance with us because they were worried that we would help Liu Xi. They even hoped to use our troops to contain Liu Xi's main force... If so, Meng's Insufficiency and conspiracy."

Huang Song was stunned for a moment, and this matter has something to do with Lanting's money?

"The Meng family wants to destroy Liu Xi." Feng Jue reminded.

The Meng family wants to kill Jiang Pengji, when is the best opportunity?

Of course, it was when she was stuck in a stalemate with the Northern Xinjiang War and had no extra energy to take care of the rear!

Huang Song raised his eyebrows and said angrily, "Dare Meng to do this? Don't you become a traitor who betrayed the righteousness of the nation?"

Cheng Jing said coolly, "Meng sold mares to Beijiang in private. He even did this kind of thing, so he is afraid of being charged with crimes?"

Huang Song thought about it, took a deep breath, and made a cruel decision.

"If that's the case, there's no need to think about Meng's alliance."

He had a premonition that the friendship between him and Jiang Pengji would not last long, and sooner or later they would fight each other.

Wars belong to wars, and righteousness belongs to righteousness.

He can't do things that help the tyrant.

Feng Jue smiled and said, "Although we can't form an alliance with the Meng family, we can form an alliance with Liu Xi to fight against the Meng family."

Huang Song said with a bitter face, "Lanting can't take care of herself, and the northern border alone has made her burn out."

Cheng Jing had a plan in mind, "Jing and Huaijie mean that we help Liu Xi delay the Meng family, and wait for her to solve the northern border before destroying the Meng family."

Huang Song was speechless.

Why is the friend who spends time and wine with him so embarrassing in the mouths of the two counselors?

That's northern Xinjiang, not radish and cabbage, so it can be chopped if it is said to be chopped?

With a wry smile on Feng Jue's face, he took out a secret report from his sleeve and handed it to Huang Song, "My lord will know after reading it."

Huang Song took it over and looked at it again, his eyes widened.

what did he see

The situation in northern Xinjiang is so chaotic?

The imperial court was divided, the escaped princes developed their own tribes, and the princes who had not yet left became cross-eyed.

Separation is the most taboo within the forces, let alone nomads like the three tribes in northern Xinjiang.

The Northern Xinjiang regime used the imperial court as a link to connect the forces of various tribes, twisting countless ropes into one strand, and only then did they converge into a frightening fighting force. If the various tribes are separated, the combat power will be weakened by a few percent——

"It's a bad year in northern Xinjiang—"

First there was horse plague and then there was civil strife, how can he beat Liu Xi who has been fighting hard for several years?

Although the combat effectiveness of the cavalry in northern Xinjiang is beyond the charts, the combat effectiveness of the elite infantry may not be inferior to the disintegrated cavalry.

Cheng Jing said firmly, "It's not that the year is unlucky, it should be that someone is secretly obstructing. As for who is obstructing, it is clear at a glance."

After hearing this, Huang Song bit his tongue in shock.

"Is the civil strife in northern Xinjiang the result of someone's calculations?"

Cheng Jing nodded,

As for who is the person who stirred up the wind and rain in northern Xinjiang, he hasn't caught it yet.

It's no wonder that Cheng Jing couldn't catch him. Sun Wen was a slave in Beijiang, and later became Harencha's secret confidant, so he wouldn't show up easily. He advises the fourth and ninth princes carefully, so who can doubt him?

Some people in northern Xinjiang also found that the atmosphere was not right recently, but Sun Wen was too cautious in doing things, and they couldn't catch his fox's tail.

Huang Song sighed, "If there is someone there, it must be someone from Lanting."

Jiang Pengji was the one who benefited the most from the tossing around Northern Xinjiang at this juncture.

"I'm also relieved to form an alliance with Lanting."

Compared to Meng Shi, Jiang Pengji reassured Huang Song more.

Although Jiang Pengji was cheating a bit, she was also a moral person, and would not casually and secretly stab her allies with knives.

Even if you poke, you will be notified before you poke.

"Oh——finally I can have an explanation with my wife—"

After talking about the business, Huang Song heaved a sigh of relief and couldn't help complaining to the counselor.

"This woman is really not to be messed with."

After this turmoil, even if Huang Song was given ten more courage, he would not dare to mention the word "accepting a concubine".

He added, "Especially women who know martial arts!"

Feng Jue couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile, "My lord, let's go back and comfort the lady."

The grape trellis at home fell down, why don't you help it up quickly? Huang Song walked briskly to coax his wife, threw out all kinds of love and good words for free, and begged his wife for mercy with the two babies in his arms, only then saved Madam Qi's heart and made her smile through tears again.

On the other side, the two counselors were also surprised by the temper of the mistress.

Feng Jue turned her head and said to her wife, "If the lord takes a concubine, the mansion will be overturned by the mistress."

This wife was not appointed by Feng Shi, but Huang Song's wife set up a bridge for him, and the two got along well after marriage.

"It's not surprising that Chao Lan has always had such a strong temper."

Mrs. Fengjue's face is not outstanding, but her temperament is extremely gentle, which can be said to be synonymous with gentleness and virtuousness.

"I'm lucky to have Liu Xi. If Liu Xi didn't exist, my lord would be laughed at."

It's not a good reputation for men to be fearful of themselves.

"Even if there is no such person, Chao Lan will still quarrel, and in the end, it is probably a situation of reconciliation."

Too many men use ambition as an excuse to fail women, some women will bear it, and some women would rather be broken than whole.

Qi Chaolan is the latter.

It's not that she's stupid, on the contrary, Mrs. Qi is too smart.

If you take a concubine once, there will be a second time. If you take a concubine once, you will make trouble and compromise once. Sooner or later, the sweetness between husband and wife will be polished and they will eventually become resentful couples.

She will not give Huang Song a second chance to disappoint her.

Huang Song dared to take a concubine, she said that if she reconciles with her, she will definitely reconcile her.

If it's a reconciliation, Huang Song will miss her for the rest of his life, and eventually become obsessed, and will always have her place in his heart.

Let Yingying Yanyan shuttle by Huang Song's side, no one can take her place.

Feng Jue took her hand and made a joke with a smile, "Madam knows Da Furen so well? What if you want to take a concubine for your husband?"

Mrs. Fengjue glared at him, slowly pulled out her hand, smiled lightly and crushed the teacup on the table.

"Husband, give it a try?"

Feng Jue: "..."
