Chapter 981

Old Man Fan immediately began to analyze the situation.

"We can support the Prince of Wei as Emperor, issue a manifesto to the world, denounce Li Er's inaction on state affairs, and his sycophancy toward Great Qin!

As long as we block Shaoguan with heavy troops and secede in Lingnan, no matter how many troops he has, don't even think about coming in.

At that time, it will be a situation of dividing the world into three! '757'"

Old Man Fan's analysis made many people's hearts move.

The mentality of rebels is mostly not seeking success, but seeking to live.

Blocking Shaoguan and seceding in Lingnan was something Zhao Tuo, the King of Nanyue, had done in the past. Even with the strength of Qin Shi Huang and Han Gaozu, they could do nothing about him.

It was indeed a brilliant plan.

The most fatal thing was that even Zhangsun Wuji was tempted.

But, in just the time of a single breath, he denied this strategy.

This was not his greatest interest.

Zhangsun Wuji was still fine for now; he was still the most trusted by the Emperor.

He could completely strive for a larger world; there was no need to play the game of isolationism with these few old men.

"Do not rebel!"

Zhangsun Wuji's one sentence attracted the gazes of the four great aristocratic families and Li Tai.

Li Tai asked urgently.

"Uncle, why can't we rebel? The Imperial Father is old and muddled, and is destroying the Great Tang world bit by bit!

We are acting out of justice to replace him; what is wrong with that?"

Li Tai had just heard that the four great aristocratic families wanted to support him in ascending the throne, and his heart was ecstatic.

The goal he had pursued for so long was about to be realized.

But at this very moment, it was denied by Zhangsun Wuji in one word.

His urgency can be imagined.

Zhangsun Wuji looked coldly at his nephew and pointed his finger to the south.

"You forgot, there is still a Zheng Chenggong over there!

You can block Shaoguan and stop the Great Tang army. But can you stop the Great Qin navy?

Don't tell me that your relationship with Great Qin is good and you can win Great Qin's support!"

Zhangsun Wuji's last sentence was sarcastic.

Everyone knew that what the Great Qin Emperor hated most was these aristocratic families.

To say that the aristocratic families could talk about cooperation with Great Qin, even a fool wouldn't believe it.

Li Tai finally quieted down.

He also knew that Zheng Chenggong had fifty thousand regular Great Qin Nanyang naval troops and was still constantly recruiting for the Siam Legion.

Colliding with Zheng Chenggong was no different from throwing an egg against a rock!

The other elders of the four great aristocratic families also quieted down.

Everyone believed that talking about cooperation with Great Qin was impossible.

Only Old Man Fan still put forward a different opinion.

"Everyone, our gaze should not always stay in the past.

Isn't the Great Qin nation also profit-seeking? When there are benefits, don't they also start cooperating with the Great Tang imperial court? As long as we can provide enough benefits, I believe that even forming an alliance with Zheng Chenggong is not impossible!" Old Man Fan's words brought hope back to Wang Jing.

He was now the one who most wanted to rebel!

If he didn't rebel, he would lose everything. On the contrary, if he rebelled, he could still use his past reputation to scrape back some things.

In a word, he had nothing left to lose!

Except for this old life!

Zhangsun Wuji slapped the desk in front of him hard, suppressing the restless people.

"Don't be too naive!

Based on my understanding of Qin Mu, no matter who he cooperates with, it is impossible for him to cooperate with us aristocratic families!

That kid holds a grudge!"

Zhangsun Wuji's words made the people of the four great aristocratic families hesitate again.

Currently, the biggest uncertain factor was Great Qin's Nanyang navy!

Success and failure both depended on a single thought of the Nanyang navy.

Their fate was held in the hands of Great Qin; there was really no way.

Li Tai, watching the opportunity to ascend the throne placed in front of him.

Giving it up just like that, his heart was very unwilling.

"Uncle, can't we do it without relying on Great Qin?

Think again, maybe we can pull in other help?"

Other help?

The people of the four great aristocratic families were also unwilling to give up this opportunity.

Seceding in Lingnan!

If they didn't consider Great Qin's interference, this was definitely their excellent opportunity.

After all, the Emperor had already bared his fangs at the aristocratic families...

No one was willing to wait for death like this!

Wang Jing thought of the reason his clan was convicted and had a sudden inspiration.

"How about we also find a feng shui master to create a dragon vein for Lingnan?

Or, we could also try to destroy Great Qin's dragon vein?"

This was too mysterious; others were unwilling to pin their hopes on something as ethereal as feng shui.

Old Man Cui directly started to mock.

"If the dragon vein is so important, why don't Great Qin and Great Tang value this thing?

Now it's just to convict your Wang clan that they pulled out such a reason!"

Wang Jing was so angry his face turned red.

But in the current situation, his family had already been destroyed, and he had to rely on the people present to have a chance to make a comeback.

He could no longer be as unscrupulous as before.

Several aristocratic old men, as well as Li Tai, all cast their gazes at Old Man Fan.

Hoping he could think of another good method.

The suggestions he just made were all quite good and successfully ignited hope for everyone.

Under the gaze of everyone, Old Man Fan spoke again.

"Our Great Tang, under Li Er's leadership, has lost all its support.

Nowadays, the only way is to persuade Zheng Chenggong to form an alliance with us.

I have always believed that we can try; perhaps there is something that can move his heart?" The other three of the four great aristocratic families were all silent.

The success or failure of the matter would ultimately depend on Zheng Chenggong.

This hope was simply as small as it could be.

It could almost be called despair!

Zhangsun Wuji, seeing this scene, made the final arrangement.

"Wang Jing, you hide for now. I happen to have a fleet going to Xilandao.

You hide in the fleet, and I assume that Yuchi Gong won't be able to catch you.

We will hurry to test Zheng Chenggong's intentions and see if there is any possibility of cooperation."

Zhangsun Wuji's words were still quite balanced.

He neither gave up on Wang Jing nor completely cut off everyone's hope.

Old Man Lu's family power was now ranked first.

He finally concluded.

"Let's follow what Lord Zhangsun said and try it first.

Perhaps Great Qin hopes that Great Tang can be divided into two?

We still have a glimmer of hope!"
