It's the last day of April, and the brethren will check the ticket folder to see if there are any missing monthly passes, which will be cleared tomorrow, so hurry up and vote for them "The husband can bend and stretch, don't care about the gains and losses of a city and a place, the current enemy of our army is Yuan Shao, you can satisfy Tao Qian's appetite first, and when Qingzhou is pacified, Tao Qian is the turtle in the urn, and you can capture it with one drum" After reading the letter, Wang Meng returned to the table, and gave his hand with a calm face.
Although Liu Wei couldn't swallow this breath, after thinking about it, he also felt that it was not a wise move to tear his face with Tao Qian in the current situation.
The city wall of Kaiyang, the seat of Langya's governance, is low, the mountains are undulating, the land is barren, and the whole county has no more than thirteen counties, with a population of about 300,000.
If it was because of such a poor rural area and Tao Qian's face, which affected the war with Yuan Shao for Qingzhou, it would be more than worth the loss And in Liu Wei's view, just with the wine bags and rice bags under Tao Qian, just with Cao Bao, Mi Fang and the like, as long as he frees his hands, he can send a general at will, and even commanders at the level of Xue Li and Yue Fei don't need to move, just send Chen Qingzhi, Chang Yuchun, Wei Yan, Tai Shici and the like, and allocate 50,000 horses, and the Tao Qian Group can be defeated within half a year.
As long as you want, you can get Langya back at any time "What Jing Luo said is reasonable" Liu Wen's head agreed with Wang Meng's opinion, and changed his words: "But it can't be so cheap Tao Qian, you must let him take out some money and grain in exchange" Wang Meng smiled and said: "Your Majesty can borrow grain from Tao Qian, just borrow it" Liu Wei understood in his heart, stroked his beard and smiled: "Yes, yes, yes or Jingluo is loyal, just borrow grain, not only borrow grain but also borrow money, I am planning to establish a port on the Jiaodong Peninsula, and Zheng Sen will form the Qingzhou Naval Division."
It's just that the treasury is tight, and since Tao Gongzu's envoy came, I happened to borrow a sum of food from him. ” After the discussion was completed, Liu Wei immediately took up the pen and wrote a letter to Tao Qian.
In the letter, he told Tao Qian that Langya could return it to him, but his own food was tight, and Xuzhou had been stable under his governance for so many years, and the treasury had been very full, so he wanted to borrow 200,000 stone grain and 20 million copper coins from him to support the war in Qingzhou and the post-war local reconstruction.
Come and go, just like the threatening words at the end of Tao Qian's letter to himself, Liu Wei also emphasized at the end: he is borrowing money and food, not blackmail or "exchange", and when he has enough money, he will definitely repay it in full After the letter was written, Liu Wei immediately sent Weijiang to summon Mi Zhu.
I said my meaning in person, and finally emphasized: "Langya is the bloody battle of the soldiers of the three armies, if it weren't for Mr.
Mi Zizhong's face, Tao Gongzu would have taken how much grain in exchange, I would not have given Gaozu Langya to Xuzhou, I can also give Langya to Qingzhou, and the land in the world to Yanzhou is my Liu family, could it be that he Tao Gongzu said that Langya is from Xuzhou, and it has been the land of Xuzhou for thousands of years."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your face, and keep it in mind" The Son of Heaven was able to look at himself like this, Mi Zhu was grateful in his heart, and thanked him repeatedly.
In order to win over Mi Zhu and separate his relationship with Tao Qian, Liu Wei ordered a banquet to be set up, and let Wang Meng, Xu Shu, and all the local officials of Beihai come to accompany him, giving Mi Zhu enough face.
Wang Meng guessed that Tao Qian would inevitably plant eyeliner in the county town, so he made a big deal of Mi Zhu's attendance at the banquet and made it known to the whole city, so that the scouts could send the news to Tao Qian's ears.
If this is the case, it would be best if there was a rift between Mi Zhu and Tao Qian, which would greatly weaken Tao Qian's strength.
At the banquet, all the officials took turns to toast, and Mi Zhu couldn't refuse, so he could only push the cups one by one.
At the end of the drink, Mi Zhu looked drunk, got up and said: "When Zhu saw the Son of Heaven today, he knew that the rumors were true, His Majesty was majestic and strategic, comparable to Gaozu Guangwu Xuzhou can have such a Son of Heaven as His Majesty, and the luck of all the people is that if Your Majesty can make you to Xuzhou one step earlier, I Mi Zhu will definitely spend all his family wealth to assist Your Majesty and reorganize the rivers and mountains."
During the banquet, someone took advantage of Mi Zhu's drunkenness and encouraged: "I heard that Mi Zizhong is the number one giant in Xuzhou, if you really have this intention, it is not too late to express your heart now."
"Well, since this lord has said it to this point, I Mi Zhu is not a miser, it is rare for Your Majesty to give face like this, I Mi Zhu is willing to donate 100,000 stones of private food, 5 million copper coins, to fund Your Majesty" Mi Zhu held the wine glass in his hand, looking drunk and hazy.
"Bang la la" When Mi Zhu's words fell, everyone in the audience applauded, and even Liu Wei couldn't help but applaud. 100,000 stone of grain is not a small amount, enough to support an army of 20,000 people for half a year, plus 5 million copper coins, which is far more than the financial income of an ordinary county in a year, such a donation can be called a large amount.
It seems that the Mi family's family background is really strong and tight, otherwise how could this Mi Zhu spit out such an astronomical amount with a casual mouth Someone else clamored: "I heard that Mr.
Zizhong's family still has a sister in the boudoir, why not dedicate it to Your Majesty In this way, Mr.
Zizhong and Your Majesty are a family, and you don't have to feel sorry when you donate money and food."
Mi Zhu said with a drunken smile: "This adult said that he laughed, there is indeed a sister in the Zhu family, whose name is true, she is twenty-eight years old, she is not boasting about it, and she can be regarded as one of the few in Xiapi, but Your Majesty is a dragon among people, and he does not dare to climb high."
"Haha, good things come in pairs, since Mr.
Zizhong has donated money and food generously, it is better for His Majesty to simply include Mr.
Zizhong's sister in the harem."
Driven by Mi Zhu, the officials and officials in the room seemed to be a little drunk, and they all turned their spearheads to encourage Liu Wei.
In this joyful atmosphere, it doesn't hurt to say a few jokes, not to mention that persuading the Son of Heaven to take a concubine is a good intention, and it shouldn't be punished for no reason Of course, Liu Wei will not be so stingy, pursed his lips and smiled: "What I say after drinking should not be true, even if I intend to admit Miss Mi family into the palace, I have to agree with the lady of the Mi family, how can I force people to discuss this matter in the future, and discuss it in the future."
The wine feast did not disperse until midnight, and the drunken Mi Zhu was personally sent back to the post house by Wang Meng, and the extra guards were sent to guard it at night, so he left with confidence.
Mi Zhu finished washing under the service of his personal entourage, and then lay on the bed unsatisfied.
"The head of the family, when you woke up, you drank a lot of money tonight, and donated 100,000 stone of grain and 5 million copper coins in one go, if you let the second master know, you will definitely be distressed and can't sleep for several days."
Seeing Mi Zhu lying on the bed without sleep, the henchman named Mi Qing next to him tentatively reminded the master.
Mi Zhu sat up suddenly, walked to the door and peeked outside for a while, and only after making sure that there was no one was relieved, he returned to sit next to the table and ordered: "I will get some tea for the head of the house to sober up, if I hadn't prepared for it, I would have really drunk too much of the head of the house today."
Mi Qing was stunned: "It turns out that the head of the family is pretending to be drunk."
Mi Zhu glanced at him fiercely, with a confident look: "What do you know about Xuzhou at a young age, Tao Qian will be destroyed sooner or later, for the great cause of my Mi family, I can't help but climb the high branches, it's a pity, the Son of Heaven couldn't agree to this marriage tonight, otherwise if we can send Zhen'er to the palace, our Mi family's status in Xuzhou will be unshakable."
"There are a lot of people who go to the banquet today, in addition to the minister of Beihai, the state minister, and the lord Bo, there are some small writers, several people are from Xuzhou, in case the words of the head of the family reach the ears of Tao Yuanjun, how is it good?"
Mi Qing expressed concern while boiling tea for the owner.
Mi Zhu sneered: "My Mi family has more than 12,000 guests, and your second master still has nearly 10,000 soldiers in his hands, I don't believe that Tao Qian's father and son dare to move me Besides, this trip to Beihai is not what I want, but Chen Qi and the pottery merchant tried their best to pry Tao Qian, and I sent me an envoy to say that I lost my words after drinking, and he Tao Qian can give me a banquet from the Son of Heaven, how can I refuse."
Three days later, Mi Zhu returned to Xiapi with the envoy and handed over Liu Bian's letter to Tao Qian.
Tao Qian's face was even more gloomy than the cloudy sky, and after reading the letter sent back by Mi Zhu, he brushed his sleeves and said: "This son of heaven is really greedy, he actually asked the old man for 200,000 stone grain and 20 million copper coins, which is obviously knocking on the old man's bar."
Mi Zhu coughed and said: "The Son of Heaven once promised Zhu, saying that it was not an exchange, but a loan, and when Qingzhou was pacified in the future, he would definitely repay it in full."
Tao Qian stroked his gray beard and said: "Zizhong, you are really a real person, it's really a bit scary, you also believe that this kind of borrowing must be a weasel borrowing a chicken, and there is no repayment of the loan."
Shaking his head and sighing: "Although the old man has not helped the Eastern Han Dynasty Emperor all these years, at least he has not caused him any trouble, and let the three million people of Xuzhou live and work in peace and contentment, which can be regarded as meritorious, this Langya was originally under the jurisdiction of our Xuzhou, and I also sent troops, none of Cao Bao's 8,000 people came back, the old man also made a lot of money, why did he refuse to return Langya, I actually used it as a reason to borrow it, and the character of this character is too bad compared to the Son of Heaven of the Western Han Dynasty."
"Zhu has done his best, and the words have been delivered, everything is just up to the king to be the master, at the beginning, Zhu said that I couldn't do this errand, it was the eldest prince and Chen Hanyu who insisted on letting me go to Beihai, if the king didn't obey, I would find another way."
Mi Zhu bowed his hand, looking like I had done my best, and you could do whatever you liked.

Tao Qian held back his anger and waved his hand: "Zizhong is tired all the way, go back and rest."
After Mi Zhu left, Tao Qian's eldest son Tao Shang, his second son Tao Ying, as well as Chen Qi and Chen Deng's father and son all turned out from behind the screen.
The potter scolded angrily: "Why doesn't my father expose this villain who eats inside and out?"
