Chapter 492 A wise minister is in trouble(1/2)
Dugu Xuda has been away from the north for a long time.
Many years ago, he left the north and fled to the south. However, he did not hide his identity and became a rich man as per his father's request. Instead, he publicly revealed his identity and obtained an official position in the Southern Dynasties.
Later, the friends in the south were familiar with the north, so they asked him as the leader to trade with the people in the north, which became one of the important links in the sale of warships.
At this moment, Dugu Xuda couldn't help laughing when he heard the words of the northerners in front of him.
"submission?"
Dugu Xuda shook his head, "If you come to trade, then we can talk more, but if you say surrender, then you should be exempted. I came from the north to the south, but now I want me to return from the south to the north? I am no longer strong and can't stand such bumps."
Listening to the other party's sarcastic words, the person who took the lead was not panicked at all.
He said calmly: "Don't rush to refuse first."
"If we dare to come and persuade Duke Duke Duke to surrender, we will naturally know Duke Duke Duke's current situation."
"We have also heard of all the things you have encountered since you came to the south."
"You almost exhausted the money you left to you by your father, and then you barely entered the eyes of those southerners, and were promoted by noble people to have this idle position now."
The leader raised his head and looked around.
"This house is good, not bad. I heard that you have exchanged the gold, silver and jewelry filled with four ships. Things in the south are really expensive. If you are in the north, you can just hold a pearl and buy a large house. Here you need jewelry for four ships...\n."
Dugu Xuda's face turned dark and his voice was deep, "Nothing is said."
"You know whether it's nonsense or not."
The leader changed into a look of beating, "As for what you said just now, it's not true, is it?"
"I heard that you often go hunting with the noble children in the south. You are the first to ride a horse, drive away the prey for them, and show them the ability to ride and shoot left and right. If they are happy,
I will also reward you with something...\n"
Dugu Xuda was furious. He jumped up suddenly, drew out his sword, and pointed it at the people in front of him.
"I will send you Northern spies out now!!"
"How should Dugu Gong tell the Chen court? You are a northerner who fled, and a few northerners appeared in the mansion? How should you tell the powerful people in the southerner? We have traded with them for a long time. If we are caught and discovered, who will die first?"
"I'll kill now...
"Dugu Gong!"
The man's face became stern, "Are you still obsessed with it?"
"Why did those southerners ask you to be responsible for trade? If you make money, you won't get much money. If something happens, it's your northerner who is an affair with the northern country, and the crimes are all yours!"
"What are the benefits you have received here?!"
"Who respects you? Those big clans drive you like hunting dogs! Let you perform riding and shooting for them and drive away prey?!"
"Showing Hu language for them at the banquet and singing Hu music?"
"It's a great humiliation!"
"If Dugu Yongye is still alive, he must kill you first!!
Dugu Xuda's hands holding the sword were trembling. He stared at the northern man in front of him angrily. His whole body was already red and hot. He gasped and wanted to cut it down, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and slashed, and the long sword hit the wooden case in front of him.
Looking at Dugu Xuda who was extremely angry, the leader continued, "General, I really feel worthless for you!"
"If you miss your nobles, how can you be a lackey here?"
"Besides, Chen State is weak and Han State is at its peak. The general is clear about the gap between the two countries. In less than two years, Chen State will definitely perish. At that time, how should the general handle himself?"
"Now is the best opportunity! Don't miss it, General!"
Dugu Xuda sat down slowly and looked at the three people in front of him coldly. He said, "I heard that when the Han Dynasty was in Bashu, some people surrendered to the road, but in the end, these people were all executed, without exception. Even if I surrender now, how can I survive?"
"No!"
"The incident in Bashu was caused by their own fault. In the name of helping the Han Dynasty, they plundered cities, warehouses, and the people, stationed their troops privately, and asked for food and weapons from the Han Dynasty, which meant to intimidate and threaten. How could such a traitor not be killed?"
"If the general doesn't have such an idea, then he doesn't have to worry about being questioned."
"In the Han Dynasty, I don't know how many people were surrendered generals and ministers, even among the three ministers, there were many people. They had never been questioned, so would the general be questioned?"
Hearing these words, Dugu Xuda's face became more and more complicated.
He hesitated for a long time, and then whispered: "My father died at the hands of Han State after all..."
"When the old general Dugu was still alive, he had raised an army and caused chaos, but he always respected His Majesty.
You are now a lackey in the South. I think if he knows, he will definitely blame him. But if he defects to His Majesty, he will not care. He has always looked down on these southerners...
,
Dugu Xuda sat for a long time, then suddenly raised his head.
"If I surrender, can I save my life?"
"Don't say that it's saving your life. If the general can make a contribution, it's not impossible to restore the clan."
"I heard that the general's surname is Liu, and he is the same clan of the Han Dynasty. Why did he deal with the thief?"
Hearing this, Dugu Xuda finally stood up, "I have one thing. If the court can allow it, I will be willing to do my best!"
"Please tell me, General."
"I want to change my father's tombstone to the surname Liu!"
"This is not a big deal. I will report it to the court, and there will be no mistakes."
Dugu Xuda then invited a few people to sit down again, and he no longer concealed his hatred for these southerners nakedly.
"These dogs are really not something! They are too bullying!"
He revealed a lot of inside information to everyone.
In terms of trade and other aspects, there are other aspects,
Of course, these things are also important, and they were quickly recorded by these people.
Dugu Xuda gave out some useful information and asked, "What do I need to do?"
"It's very simple. You need to help win over more people who are willing to surrender. If you can win over one person, you can use the credit for capturing one general alive!"
"ah?!""
Dugu Xuda was shocked and convinced that even if he surrendered, he would be considered a general. Is it true or false? Who designated the rule? Why is it so weird?
The leader said confidently: "Don't be surprised, this is a secret order issued by the ancestor of the Han Dynasty himself.
If you can win over someone else, then both of them will be rewarded! And so on!”
Dugu Xuda was confused, and after thinking for a long time, he slowly said, "I understand. I will try my best to convince them, but I don't get the attention in the south..."
"No problem, just take it slowly. We will help you with the rest. We will not go back in the short term. There are still many important things to be done."
Dugu Xuda nodded quickly.
After these people left, Dugu Xuda sat alone in the house. Thinking of this matter, he began to calculate. If he persuaded one person to capture one general, then the persuasive person would convince two generals...::. He suddenly realized that if the court did not go back on his word, he seemed to be able to obtain great contributions by persuading surrender.
Just when Dugu Xuda was still busy doing math problems, these people changed positions again.
This time, they came to another place in Jiankang, which was also an extremely luxurious mansion. This mansion obviously left Dugu Xuda's mansion several levels away.
This mansion is called Confucius Mansion.
That's right, just from the name, you can tell the extraordinary here.
Many families fled from the north, including various large families. Even among those people, the Kong surname was considered extraordinary.
The young Chen official came out to greet everyone, Kong Fan, who was also the young disciple of this family who was actively moving towards the career of the government.
Kong Fan brought a few distinguished guests to a wing room in the west courtyard.
He held a banquet here, which was quite luxurious.
This Kong Fan had no other talent, he could write poetry. Well, not bad, especially good at writing court poetry.
With this special talent, he was valued by this senior, General Jiang, and was specially promoted from Wang Changshi to his side, serving in Taichang Mansion, responsible for etiquette and culture.
With his age, he will definitely be recommended to the crown prince in the future and become the mainstay of Chen State.
A very gentle smile on his face made several distinguished guests sit down. The servants were filled with all kinds of delicious food. At the same time, a dancer came out to dance for everyone. Of course, there were musicians, and they didn't feel the same as Dugu Suda.
Kong Fan was also quite polite. After all, he was descended from Confucius and passed on his family through etiquette.
But this etiquette looks a bit strange.
In front of the guests, the dancers began to take off some of their clothes, and some even put them on Kong Fan's body, making them full of joy.
These three Beihu were fucking shocked, and looked at each other, revealing some surprise in their eyes.
This morning they said that if Dugu Yongye was resurrected, Dugu Xuda would definitely be killed, but now they think,
If Confucius was resurrected, he might set fire to the house.
Kong Fan said with a smile: "Everyone is here, don't be restrained!"
"This is a rare thing in the Northland."
