Jiang Ming led dozens of county soldiers upstairs, intending to meet this Young Master Luo and shut him up!
This guy's a businessman, and he knows so many powerful people from different countries...
If he keeps spouting nonsense everywhere, news of his presence in Yan will eventually reach the ears of the ruler of Jin!
However, when Jiang Ming entered Young Master Luo's private room, the man was already gone.
Ask the servant who runs the errand.
The servant replied that Young Master Luo had already left, but he didn't know exactly where he went.
To avoid alerting the enemy, Jiang Ming didn't say anything... He simply gave the servant five taels of silver and told him to keep Young Master Luo there if he came again... The envoy from Jin had a 'big deal' to discuss with him.
The servant was so happy his mouth almost stretched to his ears, and he nodded repeatedly.
Then, Jiang Ming secretly ordered fifty county soldiers to search for Young Master Luo's residence and whereabouts throughout Dukang County.
Once you find out, don't make a fuss; just follow them quietly.
Unless he wants to leave Dukang City, then stop him again and say that the great master of Jin has invited him!
After explaining everything, Jiang Ming went downstairs, preparing to take the Dong brothers to Chenjia Village and up the mountain...
......
In an inconspicuous little tavern in the eastern part of Dukang County.
The tavern owner had already closed for the day, but two distinguished guests were still conversing in a private room...
"What's going on? Did something go wrong with the wolf pelt? Weren't they supposed to arrive tonight?"
An old man with a seemingly kind demeanor but with a sinister and sharp gaze asked Young Master Luo.
"cough!"
Young Master Luo clapped his fan and sighed, "Those unruly people from Chenjia Village in Dukang castrated all the people from Dongshan... resisting the acquisition!"
"Hiss~!"
The old man gasped, "Is that so? The people of Chenjia Village...whose power are they relying on to be so audacious?"
"hehe......"
Young Master Luo smiled wryly and said, "It's hard to say! Doctor Tian, is it really necessary to have 1,000 wolf pelts? Didn't I have Dong Chuan get some before? There must be about sixty or seventy pelts handed over from various counties, right?"
"Cough! Not enough!"
Doctor Tian sighed: "You don't know this, but the King of Yan recently married a Queen from Ji, and he dotes on her immensely. That woman... loves wolf skins! Not only her clothes, but also her bedding, the things hanging on the walls, the things she walks on... all have to be covered in wolf skins! The King of Yan loves to see her barefoot on the ground... tsk tsk tsk!"
"Does that mean... the path to the Queen of Yan is blocked?"
"It's not that the road is impassable!"
Doctor Tian said, "Hasn't the Prince of Yan recently found a new favorite and stopped listening to her?"
"Hahaha!"
Young Master Luo laughed and said, "What big move is your Qi Kingdom planning this time? You even have to keep changing your pillow talk?"
Doctor Tian grinned slyly: "Young Master Luo is one of us, so it's fine to tell you! Didn't the Yan Kingdom suffer a loss at the Battle of Maiqiu? The King of Yan certainly won't admit defeat and is raising an army of 150,000 to challenge our Qi Kingdom again! To be honest, let alone 150,000... even if he sends 500,000 troops, our Qi Kingdom won't take him seriously. The main problem is... this time the King of Yan is going to use the famous Yan general Yue Yi again! This... this makes my king very worried!"
He paused, then continued, "Last time, our Qi state used a piece of Phoenix Blood Jade to influence the Queen of Yan's influence... leading the King of Yan to replace Yue Yi with a general on the eve of battle, which resulted in a great victory! This time, the King of Yan has learned his lesson and has reinstated Yue Yi as commander-in-chief to fight us again..."
"Hahaha!"
Young Master Luo laughed loudly: "Speaking of which... your Qi state is also a great power with a million armored soldiers, yet you are so afraid of General Yue?"
"cough!"
Doctor Tian sighed and said, "This man is a genius in warfare. He once defeated our army of 200,000 with only 30,000 men! He also slaughtered the Xianbei and Donghu barbarians, who fled in disarray and were completely routed!"
"oh......"
"So..." Doctor Tian said, "The Prince of Yan, after much painful reflection, regretted replacing Yue Yi and is determined to reinstate him this time. He even gave the Queen of Yan a severe scolding... Now, the Queen of Yan's connection is completely ruined!"
"Oh dear!"
Young Master Luo chuckled, "Just find a way to kill Yue Yi, right...?"
"Easier said than done."
Doctor Tian said, "That is Lord Anguo of Yan, who has his own fiefdom and soldiers... Right now, we can only try a different approach with the Queen Consort of Ji... But we don't know if it will be successful?"
"Hahaha! It'll definitely work!"
"Oh? How do you know, young master?"
"Oh......"
Young Master Luo sneered, "A leopard can't change its spots. Fools are called fools because they like to make the same mistakes on the same issues! That stupid pig, Prince Yan, will surely repeat the same error..."
"I don't think so!"
Dr. Tian said, "The crushing defeat last time has made him reflect deeply on his mistakes..."
"That depends on how you whisper in someone's ear. How do you do it?"
Young Master Luo took a sip of rice wine and said, "This Yue Yi was originally from my Zhongshan Kingdom. He committed a crime and fled to the Yan Kingdom. Later, he joined the army and made meritorious contributions, which led to his current success... His mother and ancestral graves are all in Zhongshan Kingdom..."
Young Master Luo, his hand lingering on his wine cup, pondered, "You could have the King of Qi contact the State of Zhongshan, offering them great rewards and empty promises to persuade them to send troops to assist in the attack on the State of Yan... The King of Zhongshan is the most greedy and short-sighted; he'll definitely help you. Then spread rumors that Le Yi's mother is seriously ill and misses him dearly. Combine this with the influence of the Queen Consort of the State of Ji, saying... Le Yi is, after all, a citizen of Zhongshan, with his mother and ancestral graves there. Now, facing the combined forces of Qi and Zhongshan, he might be hesitant to act rashly on the battlefield and certainly won't go all out..."
