Søren suddenly sighed: "The King's Abrupt Change, an invincible hero, a pity that he has no heir."
Gui Xingfu hesitated for a moment, then a strange smile appeared on his face: "Do you know how many people the King offended when he ascended the throne? How many people did he kill? Do you know how helpless the King was to promote the elites of the commoners? Do you know how much the nobles and dukes miss the dead Prince Lan? "
But, if they could have killed him, they would have done it already. Why wait until today?
Ling Ao was really a lucky guy! Gui Qinshao marrying Ling Ao was, in a sense, a three-way marriage between the royal family, the commoners, and the dukes.
Søren was very calm, he had already expected this.
Gui Xingfu continued: "If Gui Qinshao marries you, it means that she has chosen to be enemies with Prince Zhi Li and the entire noble class. I cannot afford this price, so in order to prevent this from happening, I can pay any price and do anything. "
Søren walked to the weapon rack in the corner and kicked it. The sword was kicked in front of Gui Xingfu, the blade was as sharp as water.
"You will know after the wedding tonight." Gui Xingfu said.
Søren said: "Smearing my name, ruining my reputation, and completely subverting the Suo Clan's position in Tianshui City."
"Why? Am I not worthy of Gui Qinshao? "Søren said.
"Thirty thousand gold coins and three thousand soldiers, in exchange for the annulment of your engagement, and then leave Linhai Town, the further the better." Gui Xingfu said resolutely and decisively, "If you go and harm others, I don't welcome you here."
Gui Xingfu said: "Either take the thirty thousand gold coins and leave, or force me to use the most extreme means. My reputation may be tarnished, but for the sake of my family's legacy, I will not hesitate to use my most ruthless methods. "
Søren opened his eyes and said, "You really don't dare. If you dare, you would have killed me long ago. Why wait until now?"
"My Tianshui City has fallen, but I can take it back," Søren said.
Gui Xingfu's words were completely devastating.
Taking a deep breath, Gui Xingfu said, "Nephew, let's not beat around the bush. Gui Qinshao cannot marry you."
"Hahahaha …" Gui Xingfu mocked directly, "Is that even possible? Do you know how many soldiers there are in Tianshui City? Nurdan's army, Sókhan's army, and the royal family's army numbered more than thirty to forty thousand. Do you have an army of more than a hundred men? Do you know what's going on in Tianshui City? "
Therefore, even though the dukes of the kingdom did not have a high rank and did not seem to have a high status in the capital. But in reality, the nobles of the kingdom were envious and jealous.
That's right, Gui Xingfu really did not dare. And this did not dare, not because he cherished his reputation, but because of another terrible reason.
"Of course I know." Gui Xingfu said, "But Søren, that little thief, would rather give up his life to vent his anger and fight for face."
Then, Gui Xingfu's face softened, "Nephew, whether it is talent or wisdom, you are outstanding. Why do you have to go against the royal family? Take a step back, as long as you compromise a little, you can become the husband of Princess Zhi Ning, you can become the future cabinet prime minister, why are you so obsessed? "
… …
Once this buffer was destroyed, the only result would be that the entire aristocracy and the king would be completely opposed, and the contradiction would be completely open.
As soon as these words came out, Gui Xingfu's face suddenly changed. He said so much, even revealing the highest secrets of the kingdom, just to make Søren recognize the current situation and give up the fantasy of marrying Gui Qinshao.
However, his sword did not come down for a long time.
"What exactly do you want from me?" Gui Xingfu said, "This marriage, you can't marry, even if you die, you won't marry."
And after Gui Qinshao heard her father's decision, she was completely shocked, her voice trembling: "Father, you, you really want me to marry that scum?"
After saying this, Gui Xingfu sighed, "Nephew, there is no justice in this world, only strength is true justice. Just wait and see, in the next few months, the royal family will desperately raise Suo Hanyi's status, even if he is just a shameless traitor. But in the hearts of the people of Tianshui City, he will become the brightest, the most righteous, and the most loyal person in the world. Him becoming the acting governor is simply what everyone expects. "
This last sentence was an undisguised threat.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, the groom, Søren, appeared in front of everyone, dressed in red.
Who would have thought that he would be so stubborn.
Gui Xingfu said coldly, "Therefore, Gui Qinshao will definitely marry Ling Ao, this is not decided by their feelings, but by the overall situation of the kingdom."
Half an hour later, the entire Linhai City Governor's residence was filled with bright lights.
Søren said word by word, "Either let Gui Qinshao marry me, or kill me."
Although Zhi Li also claimed to value the elites of the common people, the only thing he did was to go against the majority's opinion and choose Ling Ao as his attendant.
Gui Xingfu's words revealed the truth.
"Good, marry, marry …" Gui Xingfu said angrily, "I hope you can live to enjoy your real wedding!"
Søren said, "Don't do to others what you do not want to be done to you, Governor Gui, you all know that a prime minister and a princess are not enough to exchange for the position of a duke. Why are you persuading me to compromise? "
How big is this territory? It is equivalent to one-fifth of a province, and one-seventy of the entire kingdom's territory.
This is a signal to the common people that he will continue to use them. But in fact, this is just a strategic deception. Ling Ao is just a bone that can be bought with a thousand gold coins, and the only bone.
This, this is really going to be a wedding?
"After I marry Gui Qinshao, I will naturally tell you." Søren said, then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Gui Xingfu, saying, "This marriage must be done, I must let everyone see, those who have humiliated me, must pay the price."
This is already a huge foundation, no matter how glorious the other nobles are, they only have a few decades of time, at most they only have a few dozen miles of land.
Of course, if the king has a son, then he will still be the final winner.
To recapture Tianshui City, he needs at least one hundred and fifty thousand gold coins, twenty thousand troops. And this amount of money, this number of troops, Gui Xingfu can't even come up with it.
As soon as Gui Xingfu said this, Søren instantly understood.
And Zhi Li, in fact, has become the buffer between the king and the nobles.
"Offending a person like Lord Gui is not a big deal." Søren said lightly, "You are so rational and smart, so self-interested."
Gui Xingfu looked at her and walked inside, saying, "Daughter, come here, I have something to say to you."
But, he has no son, and can't give birth to a son.
Gui Xingfu said, "When the kingdom's army enters the wild plains, they will build a new city, and then Tianshui City will be returned to the Suo clan. But, it is not your Suo clan, but the Suo clan of Suo Hanyi. You look smart, but in fact, you are stupid and don't understand the situation. "
Of course, it is Suo Hanyi. The army of Tianshui City was brought up by him, and every soldier only knows Suo Hanyi, not Søren.
After a while, the bride, Gui Qinshao, leisurely walked into the hall, her beautiful face showed an incomparably intoxicating smile, as if there is no dissatisfaction with this wedding.
"No, no, I will not marry even if I die." Gui Qinshao screamed.
When Gui Xingfu saw the thing handed over by Søren, his face suddenly changed, the muscles on his face twitched, and he roared, "Søren, do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"
Søren suddenly remembered in the palace, when he was conferred the title of nobility, Prince Zhi Li was incomparably respectful and didn't say a word. But the entire cabinet, the entire command, spoke up for him.
Everyone was shocked, the Gui clan is really going to fulfill the agreement.
And the feudal vassals have hundreds of miles of territory, hundreds of thousands of people, tens of thousands of troops, and live as long as the country.
In one sentence, it is the most dangerous and terrible situation of the Raging Wave Kingdom.
Søren said, "After the wedding ceremony, you will know what I want."
Zhi Ning said, when she could kill before, she didn't kill Søren. Now, she can't kill him.
Søren is still expressionless.
His strategy is to rely on the aristocracy, win over the feudal vassals, and deceive the civilian elite. All three forces are at his disposal.
Gui Xingfu said, "In less than three months, you will be notorious in Tianshui City. Then Suo Hanyi will negotiate with the rebels, and Nu Er Dan will surrender again and be loyal to Suo Hanyi. Then, Suo Hanyi will become the acting City Lord of Tianshui City. Then, the royal army will enter Tianshui City. "
Søren continued, "Prince Zhi Li forcibly seized my Tianshui City, don't you feudal vassals feel the danger? He can take away my territory today, can he take away your territory tomorrow? "
Gui Xingfu said word by word, "Søren, no one in the whole world can save you now, even if the King changes his mind. So, don't have any illusions. "
This sentence was the greatest blow to the heart. Not only was it aimed at Sauron's heart, but it was also aimed at the King's change of heart.
"More than discrediting?" Gui Xingfu said, "There are already rumors that you and Suo Ningbing have an affair, and that you forged Sauron's will, ready to let Suo Hanyi take over as City Lord."
Gui Xingfu said coldly, "Do you know, although you have vented the anger in your heart by doing this, you have also completely offended me."
Søren suddenly said, "Then, what about His Majesty's will?"
Half an hour later, Søren and Gui Qinshao's wedding banquet officially began.
"What do you mean?" Turings asked.
Not only can he not kill Søren, he can't even let him die in his Waterfront City territory, he can't bear the consequences.
"What do you know," Gui Xingfu said angrily, "If I could kill him, Søren would have died a hundred times already, do you think it's my turn to kill him?"
Søren's eyes narrowed, "Lord Gui, originally I can not marry Gui Qinshao, after I get what I want, I can take the initiative to break off the engagement, but you people are too dirty, you actually let Ling Ao destroy the veins in my arm. I can take the initiative to call off the engagement, but you guys are too dirty. You actually let Ling Ao destroy the tendons in my arm. Prince Zhi Li's real foundation of power is the support of the entire noble class.
The King's reform, promoting the commoner elites, brought great damage to the interests of the noble class.
Although all the nobles are still very respectful, in their hearts, they have already regarded the King as a mortal enemy. Although all the nobles are still very respectful, in their hearts, they have already regarded the King as a mortal enemy.
Søren said, "Then what about my Suo clan's great kindness to you? That once sacred contract, are you going to ignore it? "
Søren said coldly, "Since you don't dare to kill me, then prepare for the wedding, the sooner the better."
Either kill him, or bow to heaven and earth to get married.
Turings said coldly, "Husband, you should know what it means once your daughter marries Søren. It means that we are the enemy of the entire noble class, and the enemy of Prince Zhi Li. "
Hearing this sentence, Gui Xingfu's arm suddenly trembled, he really had the impulse to strike out with his palm.
Thirty thousand gold coins, three thousand soldiers, Gui Xingfu really went all out.
Waterfront City, Tianshui City, are one of the kingdom's major feudal lords, about five hundred li of territory.
Therefore, Ling Ao, the lucky one, has become the most important chess piece.
Gui Xingfu said, "Prince Zhi Li's strategy cannot be stopped by anyone, and you are the stone in the way of this strategy, the only result is to be crushed. Prince Zhi Li's strength is beyond your imagination. "
Gui Xingfu's face trembled, "Of course not. The Prime Minister of the cabinet looks mighty, but he can only hold power for ten years at most. But a few hundred li of territory, hundreds of thousands of people, can be passed down from generation to generation. No matter how mighty the kingdom's nobles are, how can they compare to us feudal lords? Even Turing Tuo, a dignified duke, a great god of the royal family, is at best a retainer of the royal family. And we feudal lords, are indeed partners of the kingdom. "
Søren smiled.
Gui Xingfu said, "Why do you ask when you already know the answer? Right now, you are like a jinx, no one can get close to you, and no one can have any relations with you. You have become the royal family's enemy, once we unite by marriage, my Gui family is not far away. "
Søren said, "Then Mayor Gui, if you were to marry the king's changed sister, and directly become the Prime Minister of the cabinet, and the price is that you hand over a few hundred li of territory in Linhai, would you be willing?"
Gui Xingfu nodded, "That's right, we must get married tonight."
However, this was not what Søren wanted.
This great show in Waterfront City was truly too, too wonderful.
Even Zhi Li and Zhi Ning could not be killed, how could he, Gui Xingfu?
"Do you know what Ling Ao means? How important he is? "Gui Xingfu continued to ask.
"A man without an heir means he has nothing," Gui Xingfu said coldly, "Søren, do you want your family to have no heir?"
"What do you want from me?" Gui Xingfu's expression changed several times, "What do you want from me?"
Gui Qinshao suddenly pulled out her sword and placed it on her neck, "I would rather die than marry you, unless I die."
Gui Xingfu said, "What is more important than the survival of a family? If you want to die, you can, but don't drag others into it, especially not my Gui family. "
Søren only now realized how powerful the power behind Zhi Li was.
…
Then, Gui Xingfu shouted angrily towards the outside, "Go and get ready. We will get married tonight!"
"Of course not, that's why I must marry Gui Qinshao," Søren laughed.
Now, the whole kingdom's nobles and dukes were waiting for the king to die, waiting for Prince Zhi Li to inherit the throne.
Tu Lingsi said, "This little bastard is too much, why don't you just kill him? Right now, he is like a stray dog, no one will care if he is killed. "
All the guests received a piece of breaking news, Søren and Gui Qinshao's wedding would be held tonight.
Therefore, Søren did not have any hope for the soldiers of Tianshui City from the beginning. Only what he fought with his own hands truly belonged to him.
Moreover, Ling Ao, the only backbone, would become the son-in-law of Linhai City's Castellan, a bridge between Zhi Li and the dukes.
Gui Xingfu said, "As for the army of Tianshui City, do you think they will support you? Or support Suo Hanyi? "
Prince Zhi Li becoming the heir apparent was, in fact, a sign of the king's compromise with the nobles.
Gui Xingfu said, "Because you are facing a life and death crisis, your Tianshui City has fallen, you have nothing, no choice."
Gui Xingfu's body trembled, he suddenly picked up the sword on the ground, raised it, and was about to cut Søren in half.
Ling Ao was an elite commoner, Zhi Li chose him as his attendant, and made him one of the future military commanders of the kingdom.
