When Di Wei and Liang Feng led the special mixed fleet to cut through the waves on the sea, Yuzhou, Henan Province reversed the tranquility of the previous few days and was caught in the whirlpool.

With the cooperation of the Military Information Department, Yang Yiren secretly entered Yuzhou City. After careful arrangements, he met Xiong Wencan and chatted with Xiong Wencan for two days before leaving Yuzhou City.

As the military governor of six provinces, Xiong Wencan naturally hoped that Lin Chunhong would do his best to completely wipe out Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai and restore a bright world to the six provinces.

Ideals are ideals after all, and the pragmatic Xiong Wencan naturally knows that this matter does not determine him or Li Shaoyi. The only one who can determine the fate of Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai is only Lin Chunhong.

When Yang Yiren bluntly proposed that Xiong Wencan would surrender Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai's plan, Xiong Wencan was indeed moved. He thought that if Lin Chunhong really did put the bandits in one go, both the court and the scholars knew that the contribution was all on Lin Chunhong and he would never give him great contributions. In this way, the bandits in Henan, Huguang and Nanzhili were pacified, and he would do whatever he should do. Whatever he went further into the court was the flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water.

However, if Xiong Wencan came forward to surrender Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai, then his contribution to suppressing the bandits would definitely be his. With such a wonderful skill, he would probably be in charge of the court. Even if he entered the cabinet, it would not be impossible.

There is no free lunch in the world, Xiong Wencan still understands this truth. He knows that Lin Chunhong gave him this wonderful achievement for no reason and must pay a certain price.

Xiong Wencan was suspicious and kept testing Yang Yiren, hoping to get out of Lin Chunhong's bottom line. However, Yang Yiren said only one sentence after saying that: "I hope that after entering the dynasty, he can understand the difficulties of the governor, the governor's loyalty and loyalty to the country, and devote himself to the dynasty."

I want me to say good things about Jingzhou Group? Xiong Wencan almost cursed, and finally suppressed his urge to swear, and his face turned pale.

Xiong Wencan could only curse Lin Chunhong in his stomach: Damn, don’t look in the mirror to see what kind of virtue he has. All the civil and military officials in the court, including the emperor, hate you to the core and wish you could slash your skin and suck your tendons? If I want me to say good things, wouldn’t I be scolded by the people of the world?

Xiong Wencan was very clear-headed. Yang Yiren said something nice and he only wanted a few good words. However, the extremely simple and beautiful words in the court represent political factions. Yang Yiren's conditions simply require him to be the spokesperson of the Jingzhou Group in the court. In fact, to put it nicely, he is the spokesperson, to put it badly, he is the puppet!

Xiong Wencan was thinking a lot. He wanted to reject Yang Yiren and was reluctant to leave the temptation of becoming the center of the Ming Dynasty, and it was difficult to make a decision for a while. After thinking about it, Xiong Wencan finally decided that it would be better to agree to Yang Yiren's conditions first. When Lin Chunhong enters the court in the future, what ability does Lin Chunhong have to control him?

After figuring this out, Xiong Wencan's mood improved significantly. The words of praise for Lin Chunhong and Yang Yiren gushed out, and Yang Yiren got goosebumps all over his body.

However, the good times did not last long, and Yang Yiren's next conditions almost made Xiong Wencan vomit blood.

Yang Yiren said: "Since General Lin Chunyi led his army westward, he fought with the bandits in Xuncun and Miaotou, not only rescued Deputy General Ma from the siege, but also severely damaged the bandits. According to the war report, the remaining bandits were only 90,000, and they were fleeing to Luoning and Lu's line."

"However, after a series of battles, the soldiers were exhausted, and the food and supplies were insufficient, so they could not continue to pursue the bandits. Moreover, the remaining bandits were all habitual bandits and should not be underestimated."

"Precisely because the bandit suppression army faces many difficulties, if the Governor can successfully surrender the bandits, it will show the great achievements of the Lord. The only thing that can be worryed about is that if the Lord suddenly surrenders, the bandits will not trust them and may be in vain. Therefore, we must express twelve sincerity to Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai."

"I have an opinion on this. Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai are not in desperate situation and will not be willing to disband their crowds. It is better to be prepared to agree to their conditions, choose a city and properly resettle the bandits."

"As for whether the bandits will surrender, there is no need to worry about this. Although the Jingzhou Army is currently unable to fight, it is competent to monitor the bandits and prevent them from rebelling again."

Yang Yiren's words directly shattered Xiong Wencan's dream of first leveraging his extraordinary skills to become the throne, and then breaking his promise. Xiong Wencan was powerless and angry, but just cursed in his heart: You are cruel, I have pinched my balls. As long as I still want to stay in the Ming Dynasty, I can't help but not listen to you!

Xiong Wencan has been in the officialdom for half his life, but how could he not see Lin Chunhong's purpose: it is nothing more than to limit Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai. Once Xiong Wencan breaks his promise in the court, he only needs to provoke a little and relax his surveillance. Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai will undoubtedly rebel. At that time, could Xiong Wencan still hold his position? If he doesn't lose his head, it will be blue smoke coming from the ancestral grave.

Should I be content with mediocrity or enter the court? At the critical moment of facing a turning point in my destiny, Xiong Wencan completely calmed down. He made the excuse that it was too late, and then continued to talk tomorrow and placed Yang Yiren in the mansion. However, he thought about it at night, constantly deducing various possibilities and thinking about solutions.

Being Lin Chunhong's puppet will not only be scolded by people all over the world, but will also become a lonely person in the court, but will also be disliked by the emperor. Although the emperor will be afraid of him and will not drive him away from the court, nor will he vent his anger on his head, he will most likely make some minor stutters or publicly humiliate him.

However, seeing that Lin Chunhong's strength is getting stronger and stronger, and in the predictable future, its strength will only become stronger and stronger. Now, Jingzhou Group can compete with the court. Who can tell what it will develop in the future? Moreover, Yang Sichang is now quite trusted by the emperor. Yang Sichang is a man with a long-term vision and pragmatic work, and he should leave room for improvement and will not force Lin Chunhong too much. Based on this, Yang Sichang will also leave him a little bit of thin air and will not bully him too much.

After thinking about it, Xiong Wencan gradually tended to obey Lin Chunhong's opinions and came forward to surrender Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai. However, when he thought that Lin Chunhong would treat Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai as bargaining chips to control him, he felt creepy and restless.

I must find a way to remove Lin Chunhong's chips, at least I should try my best to reduce the weight of the chips!
