Chapter 744 Wonderful Chess
Li Minggui was a gentry in Sichuan and Shu before, and there were definitely many former officials. His connections in the officialdom of Shu were beyond doubt. The most important thing was that he was still a peace-seeking faction.
This is also the reason why Lingguo came to him.
The conversation between the restaurant's private room made Li Minggui fear except for being shocked. He did not reject Wei Tu or directly agreed. Instead, he temporarily made a perfunctory excuse in a panic tone, and then hurriedly stood up to say goodbye.
Seeing him leave the private room, a Lingguo fine worker guarding outside immediately walked in: "Master Wei."
Understanding his meaning, Wei Tu raised his hand slightly, stopped talking in detail, and said coldly: "If you want to contact us, you must take this risk. Although we don't know what Li Minggui is thinking, he obviously did not refuse directly, which means he still needs time to consider it."
After hearing this carefully, he said tentatively: "Then... what if Li Minggui ordered the officers and soldiers to arrest us after he went back?"
"Don't panic, I have arranged the way out. Go back immediately and let the other brothers hide it. I have been exposed. If there is nothing to do, don't contact me soon." Wei Tu said calmly.
"Oh my sir, I have said a long time ago that this matter is dangerous and you shouldn't have come forward." Xiao Zuo said worriedly.
"It's important, don't say much, leave here first." As he said that, Wei Tu stood up and walked away quickly.
Yong'an Mansion.
Li Minggui didn't know how he came back, until now? His heart was still stormy.
The conditions offered by the Ling Kingdom are tempting. Not only does it promise to be fulfilled? Supporting him as the King of Shu also has countless other benefits.
But he knew very well what kind of person his monarch was, and he was a decisive and talented monarch.
He paced back and forth in the hall? After a while? He pointed at the servant who was sending tea in and said, "Hurry up! Please come over by Mr. Wang."
Mr. Wang, whom he mentioned, was his aide? Li Minggui also trusted him very much. Whenever there was something big that could not be decided, he would come to discuss it.
Under his instructions, not long after, the aide rushed over? After coming in? Naturally, he bowed and bowed: "Sir."
"Sir, don't be too polite? There is something big now? You have to discuss with the sir." Li Minggui said, and also made a clear idea. He directly explained the situation.
"What!?" After hearing him say it, the aide also widened his eyes in shock. After a while, he said in a trembling voice: "This? This?
"Oh sir, this is the case? I am so sir. I would like to ask sir to help me solve my problems." Li Minggui said anxiously.
"Sir, don't be anxious, please don't be anxious." The aide also became a little panicked? After carefully sorting out his thoughts, he said: "The conditions offered by the Spirit King? It is indeed very tempting, but now it seems that these are all empty. Just a Shanyuguan, the coalition forces will attack for April, not to mention that there are so many troops in our country."
"If we take a step back, even if the coalition forces break through Shanyuguan and our army is defeated, we will retreat to Tongguan, move the capital to Yizhou, and defend it with Shu."
"The king is not a mediocre master. He can be said to be a talented and stubborn person. Since the king dares to fight this battle, it means that the king has certain confidence. It is too early to say that Qin will be defeated."
"Those are all one-sided words written by the Ling Kingdom. If the adults rebelled in Yong'an at this time, they would probably die without a place to bury themselves."
"And Wei Qing and his family are in Ningyang, and Yong'an can be pacified in the blink of an eye."
After listening to his analysis, Li Minggui stuttered: "Then, the words you make in detail are not credible?"
The staff member pondered: "No matter whether what they said is true or false, I would like to suggest that adults should not be confused by the superficial weight of profits. If one move is wrong, it will involve the future and life."
Hearing this, Li Minggui nodded slowly at first, and then sighed slightly: "But I am still not optimistic about this war. You said, if Qin State is really destroyed, wouldn't I miss this opportunity?"
"This..." the aide also hesitated for a moment and said, "No matter what the war is in the end, the adults must not take any action now, otherwise they will destroy themselves."
"Well, sir means..."
"First stabilize the Lingguo's detailed work, observe the situation and wait for the time to move." The staff said.
Li Minggui rolled his eyes and nodded again: "Yeah, it's very much for me, so I'll do it."
He came into contact with Lingguo's fine works, but did not arrest him or report him as the county magistrate of Qin, but waited.
It is obvious that Li Minggui is the kind of person who will surrender if the country is in trouble.
But what he didn't know was that Ling State had detailed activities, and Qin State also had intelligence personnel responsible for this area to attack them.
Wei Tu's exposure gave intelligence personnel a certain opportunity. This matter would involve many people, and this secret news also reached Xiao Yuan as soon as possible.
The person in charge of intelligence work was naturally Lin Chu, and the Lingguo Council started from Shu to eliminate food and supplies. These were originally expected by Xiao Yuan.
In the study of the royal palace, Lin Chu was reporting on Yong'an.
After explaining the situation, he said: "King, as you expected, the fine works of Lingguo have been exposed in Shu. We can now close the Internet with Wei Tu and others at any time."
Xiao Yuan thought about it and did not immediately give the order, but asked again: "Did Li Minggui do anything?"
"Not yet." Lin Chu returned truthfully.
"Yeah..." Xiao Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, don't alert the snake first, put the thread again. I will wait for Li Minggui's memorial to see if he reports it."
Lin Chu understood what he meant and said tentatively: "Then, king, what if Li Minggui had the intention to cooperate with the Ling Kingdom, would he be executed secretly?"
"No, don't touch him now, wait for the war."
"promise!"
At the same time, the Ling Kingdom began to send envoys to Qin. Because it was fighting the envoys and fighting for the two countries, the Shanyuguan side did not make any embarrassment.
The Ling Envoy used the guise of meeting the King of Qin as a guise. In fact, he mainly met Sun Qi. Because he could not get to the military camp in a meticulous way, Lingguo thought of this trick.
After successfully passing Shanyuguan and entering Qin State, the envoy went directly to the Xinjun camp, straight to the point and informed the soldiers that he represented the Ling King and wanted to negotiate with the Lord.
This action, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, will definitely be passed to the Qin court.
In the eyes of King Ling, as long as Sun Qi meets the spiritual envoy privately, no matter what they talk about, King Qin will definitely be suspicious of him!
