i became the villain

Chapter 257
It is impossible for Dong Tiancheng to refuse Brother Mengjiang's request of sworn brotherhood.

Rejection means distrust and contempt for the other party. In that case, the alliance that they had just negotiated before due to certain interests will be broken in an instant.

Cracks are secondary.

The most important thing is that it is possible to force the fierce brother to the opponent's side. In this case, it is a problem that one plus one is greater than two.

So no matter whether Dong Tiancheng is willing or not, he can't refuse the proposal of the fierce general brother.

This is also a kind of helplessness of the superiors. Sometimes, for certain things, they have to do things that they do not want to do or do not want to do.

Just like Dong Tiancheng, although he was a bit reluctant at this time, he still had to reluctantly agree to Brother Mengjiang's request for sworn brotherhood. He had a strange and emotional look on his face, a fake expression that I was honored, and held Brother Mengjiang's hand. With his hand, he took advantage of the situation and said: "Brother doesn't dislike it, how dare Tian Cheng disobey his orders? Brother, please be respected by younger brother."

Say it.

A loud knock on the ground.

Sworn worship has the appearance of sworn worship, even if the situation is urgent and the conditions are a bit crude, but there are still necessary steps, such as the step of kneeling and kowtowing to your elder brother, which cannot be reduced or waived.

The fierce general smiled and accepted Dong Tiancheng's worship, but his smile was not because he really had many brothers, but because Dong Tiancheng was particularly in line with the strong general's appetite, he was resolute in his handling of things, and his behavior was particularly capable. In any matter, one word can often tell the key point, and the success rate of actions is relatively high. This is one aspect.

On the other hand, it is Dong Tiancheng who has become a senior official of the second-rank General Huwei at such a young age. The emperor must think highly of him, otherwise he would not have given such an important official position as General Huwei to Dong Tiancheng, an insignificant Mao. head boy.

You know, General Huwei is a general with real power in his hands, much higher than other first-rank generals in front of the palace and first-rank Yanwu generals.

The so-called no one in the court should be an official.

Dong Tiancheng was deeply trusted by the emperor.

No matter how you calculate this deal, there is profit but no compensation. No matter how you calculate it, his fierce general brother is profitable.

of course.

There is also a prerequisite for this, that is, he can help Dong Tiancheng complete his errands, and he has certain abilities, otherwise, even if there are people in the court, it will not help.

Coax things for a while, but not for a lifetime.

Think of this.

Brother Meng hurriedly helped Dong Tiancheng up, and said with a smile: "My dear brother, as an imperial envoy, I can't afford to be so generous to you. My dear brother, please get up quickly, please get up quickly."

"In terms of age, the elder brother is older than the younger brother. In terms of achievements, the elder brother has more than the younger brother. In terms of experience, the elder brother has more than the younger brother. The younger brother should pay homage to the elder brother. There are no outsiders here, and the elder brother should not shirk." With a few words, he really put himself in the high position of the imperial envoy, and he did all the acting, kneeling and kowtowing, what are you afraid of?He took out a stack of silver bills, about 5 taels, handed it over, and said with a smile: "Brother, I came here in a hurry and didn't bring a gift. I hope you accept it."

money.

No one doesn't want it.

It's just that sometimes, it's not allowed, so Brother Meng hurriedly pushed his hand and refused, "My dear brother, this is impossible, impossible, impossible."

Dong Tiancheng's face sank, and he said unhappily: "Brother, do you look down on my younger brother? If you don't want these bank notes, then you don't have my brother Dong Tiancheng."

Having said that, if Brother Mengjiang doesn't want it any more, he just won't give Dong Tiancheng face. Besides, he will need money for his subsequent affairs, so he didn't refuse, and took the bank note from Dong Tiancheng with both hands, and stuffed it Putting it into his arms, he replied with a smile: "In this case, it is better to be respectful than to obey orders as a brother. I just use this money to buy some people.".

Stop talking.

The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, and they laughed at the same time, "Hahaha...hahaha...."

After laughing.

The two of them took their seats again. This time, there was a fundamental difference from the previous ones.The identities of the two people before, one is the imperial envoy of the emperor, and the other is the subordinate of the vassal king, some words and some things cannot be clearly stated.But this time, with the sworn brothers of the two, although the identities of the two parties have not changed, the internal capital of the identities has changed. The two are no longer enemies, but sworn brothers, and have common interests.

Since they share common interests, it is natural that Jin will use it in one place.

After adding a cup of tea, Dong Tiancheng thought about it, and said to Brother Meng: "Big brother, the current situation, the big brother also knows that the prince wants to seek stability, and I, as an imperial envoy, can do this. But some people don't necessarily Thinking about it this way, wealth and wealth are sought from danger, and the power of the dragon is greater than the sky. If someone encourages the prince to take the opportunity to revolt, the younger brother's head will be lost. For the current plan, we must stabilize the prince. As an imperial envoy , Some things are inconvenient to intervene, do you know what I mean?"

What Dong Tiancheng meant.

Very simple.

Just to ask brother fierce general, if there is any secret arrangement to follow Zhao Du's side.

Brother Meng thought for a while, looked at Dong Tiancheng, and said: "Brother, among the guards in front of the prince, there is a guard named Zhang San, who I arranged to go in. He is the person I saved on the battlefield back then. These years, Zhang San has been in contact with me, and the relationship between the two of us is unknown to outsiders."

Dong Tiancheng nodded, and said: "That's very good, big brother, tell that Zhang San, you must pay more attention to Zhao Du's every move these days, especially those who have met Zhao Du and conspired in the study. People, you must pay more attention."

Brother fierce general, "I will, my virtuous brother is worried that someone will deceive the prince and do something disrespectful?"

"My lord is in Zhennan City and has military power in his hands. Even if he doesn't rebel, the emperor is a little worried. What's more, the lord has gathered troops some time ago." Dong Tiancheng said: "After all, the lord is a member of the royal family and belongs to the emperor. Uncle, once something rebellious happens, it will become very troublesome whether the emperor will kill his uncle or not. If he doesn't kill his uncle, what about the crime of treason? If he kills it, it will mean that the emperor will bear the notoriety of brotherhood. Sound. In the end, who will the emperor burn the fire on? Naturally, it will be on our heads, so we can only make this matter trivial, and if we can make it clear, we will not talk about it."

After listening to Dong Tiancheng's analysis, Brother Meng couldn't help but praise: "Brother has such deep knowledge, no wonder the emperor values ​​it. Alright, as my brother said, I will go to see Zhang San and tell him to handle this errand well."

Dong Tiancheng raised his teacup, and invited Brother Mengjun: "Then celebrate the victory of the big brother and me, and the prosperity of the official career. Let's replace the wine with tea and drink this cup."

Brother Meng laughed, "By my brother's auspicious words, if I can become the commander of Xiangyang City in the future, I will never forget my brother."

The two laughed.
