Lin Shan looked at the woman in front of him, she really had the magnanimity of the lord of a state.

Looking at her, and then thinking about Xie Zhan who was in trouble in Lingnan, Lin Shan thought to himself that she and Xie Zhan, the former unmarried couple, were really powerful.

Lin Shan didn't dare to think about how Dali would be subverted if the two of them joined forces and there were no twists and turns in their marriage.

Lu Songli's words just now were enough to reassure him. Moreover, he observed along the way that there was indeed no chaos in Pingzhou, so their property could not be dealt with for now.

"Deputy Gang Leader Lin, I heard that water bandits are rampant on the sea recently?" Lu Songli suddenly asked Lin Shan a question.

Mentioning this, Lin Shan wanted to sigh.I don't know if those water bandits know that the imperial court is currently too busy to take care of themselves, but they have indeed been dispatched frequently recently.

Lu Songli pondered for a moment and said, "Deputy Gang Leader Lin, you know that we in Pingzhou have trained a navy army before. In order that your Cao Gang's business will not be affected, we in Pingzhou can send troops to escort your cargo ships. I Deputy Gang Leader Lin can consider this proposal carefully."

Lin Shan:? ? ?What does Lu Songli want to do?And why did the topic come to this?

Lu Songli ignored him and continued, "I sent them out to help you fight against the water bandits. You only need to take care of their food during the period. You don't need to pay wages."

Lin Shan: "Why is this so embarrassing?"

"It's okay. We in Pingzhou have always cooperated happily with your Cao Gang, and we have an old friendship with Deputy Gang Leader Lin. Your Cao Gang is encountering difficulties, and we in Pingzhou can't just sit idly by and ignore it." Lu Songli said solemnly, "I just hope It will always be good for both of us."

Lin Shan also began to seriously consider her suggestion, "How many people does Pingzhou intend to lend to us?"

"How much do you need?"

Lin Shan was also very confused. This was the first time such a thing had happened, and there was no precedent.

"How about we lend you an army of 200 men first?"

"Okay." Lin Shan thought of a question and hesitated, "The water bandits are all desperadoes, and this shipping is very dangerous..."

Lu Songli knew what he was worried about, "Don't worry, we are responsible for our own life and death. However, the command of this 200-man team cannot be handed over to your Cao Gang."

Lin Shan thought about it. After all, what if the person who takes the command does not take other people's lives as his life?

"But Deputy Gang Leader Lin, I have a question that I need to ask clearly."

"President Lu, please tell me."

"How many ships do you plan to use to accommodate 200 of us?"

Lin Shan made an estimate and gave a number, "I'll give you two small wheeled boats. Normally, the sailors can also enter our boats to rest."

Lu Songli shook his head, "Give us two sailboats and two wheeled boats."

Lin Shan was still about to speak, but Lu Songli said directly, "This boat should be rented by us in Pingzhou and your Cao Gang." For actual combat training, what can we do without a boat?

"Of course, if your Cao Gang is willing to sell it, we can also buy it."

Lin Shan: Rich in wealth, rich in tools, really rich in tools!

As a result, the two held friendly negotiations on the matter.

Changan

Prince Gong and his party returned to Chang'an.

As soon as he returned, Prince Gong, regardless of his illness, knelt unsteadily in front of the main hall to apologize.

Song Mo reprimanded him, put the blame for Pingzhou's rebellion on him, removed his title as punishment, and then asked him to go back and avoid his family to reflect on his past.

In the afternoon of that day, Song Mo woke up with a splitting headache. Recently, they were discussing where to use their troops first. Each of them really had their own reasons.

After he woke up, Liang An happily came in to serve him.

Song Mo frowned and heard what he was saying, "Your Majesty, do you know? Lieutenant Xiao and others have received the latest news that the first person in charge of Pingzhou is actually a woman."

Hearing this, Song Mo was surprised, "Not Lu Desheng?"

Damn it, it wasn’t him, why did he rebel so hard?Song Mo still resents Pingzhou's announcement of a campaign against him.

Liang An paused, "It's not him, it's his daughter, the second daughter Lu Songli."

Lu Songli?Song Mo didn't know why, but suddenly remembered something. At that time, at the critical moment of seizing the heir, Xue Huaimin had suggested to him that after everything settled, he should include Lu Songli in the harem, but he refused. .

At this moment, Song Mo couldn't explain what he felt in his heart.

Soon, Song Mo packed up and came to the imperial study room.

After a brief greeting, Xiao Qun was the first to say, "Your Majesty, Pingzhou's move shows that there must have been internal strife between Qin and Lu as they competed for the right to speak."

Ok?

Xiao Qun analyzed, "The promotion of a woman named Lu Songli to the top is just the result of the compromise between the Qin and Lu families."

"Your Majesty, Master Xiao's words are not unreasonable. At present, the Qin and Lu families, one civil and one military, are working together to conquer the world. However, there is only one master position. If the Lu family wants to sit, doesn't the Qin family not want it?" Shen Wan didn't believe it.

Xiao Qun continued, "If Lu Desheng sits on it, the Qin family will definitely not be convinced, and if Qin Heng sits on it, the Lu family will definitely disagree. The key to the connection is Qin Sheng and Lu Songli. The person in charge can only follow Choose between the two.”

Shen Wan answered, "Yes, with Lu Desheng's character, even if he chooses Qin Sheng as his son-in-law, he will still feel disadvantaged. Only by choosing Lu Songli can Lu Desheng agree and the Qin family can accept it."

Song Mo: "But I heard that this woman is different from ordinary women, she is quite capable and skillful."

"You must have some ability and skill, at least on the surface, you must be passable, so that you can sit on the throne of this state."

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen suggested not to use troops in Pingzhou for the time being." Sang Baiqing said at this time.

Song Mo pondered and did not express his position.

"Your Majesty, what Mr. Sang said is absolutely true. First Pingzhou was rebellious and betrayed Dali, and now he has chosen a female leader. He is like a bastard, ignoring the ordinary etiquette! He will not last long if he acts in such a perverse way. There is nothing to be afraid of."

They felt that Pingzhou must be in dire straits at this time.

"When a woman is in power, she will bring about her own destruction." Xiao Qun said this with a look of deep disgust on his face.

Song Mo thought for a moment and agreed with the words of the two ministers. How could a capable man in the world be willing to kneel down and condescend to a woman?

"If there are no external enemies in Pingzhou at this time, internal conflicts will inevitably intensify. If we send troops to attack Pingzhou at this time, the two families will definitely abandon their prejudices and unite with the outside world." This is the first minister who does not agree with the use of troops against Pingzhou. reason.

What's more, Pingzhou and Youzhou are located in the northeast. As long as they don't go west again, it's not intolerable. The same is true for Xianbei who is currently nestled in the north and Liangzhou.

"If you don't want to fight Pingzhou, let's fight Xie Zhan."

"Yes."

So, after several days of deliberations, the imperial court unanimously decided to use troops against Lingnan first.
