Chapter 295 Mu Yili and Ye Wuwei discuss cooperation
Mu Yili decided not to beat around the bush with Ye Wuwei. She straightened her expression:
"Commander, I'm here to discuss cooperation with you."
After saying that, Mu Yili glanced at Lei Dahong who was standing behind Ye Wuwei.
Ye Wuwei calmly instructed Lei Dahong: "Go make a pot of tea for the Princess."
When Lei Dahong heard Ye Wuwei say "make tea", he knew that Ye Wuwei had something very important to discuss with Mu Yili, and no one else was allowed to approach without Ye Wuwei's order.
Lei Dahong responded and went outside to guard against anyone approaching.
When there were only two of them in the room, Ye Wuwei asked, "How does the Princess want to cooperate?"
"The Commander doesn't seem surprised that I'm talking about cooperation?"
"Since the Princess is a straightforward person, I won't hide it from you. I have done some research on her family background.
If I'm not mistaken, the Princess wants to avenge your brother, right?
I just don't know what conditions the Princess of the County can offer."
"Since the commander investigated me, he must know that my uncle's clan is quite powerful in Nanling."
Ye Wuwei nodded.
"The commander should be familiar with the terrain of Nanling. If there is no internal support, it will not be easy to capture Nanling. Otherwise, the court would not be so tolerant of Nanling.
My bargaining chip is to persuade my uncle and his men to cooperate with the commander-in-chief to take over Nanling.
After this is done, I want Mu Yiyang and everyone involved to die."
"I want to ask you, why did you come to me to discuss cooperation? Why not go directly to His Majesty?"
“To be honest, I feel pressured when facing His Majesty and cannot have a dialogue with him on an equal footing.
As for why I’m looking for you?
You and I both know this: His Majesty will definitely agree to anything you ask for.
In that case, why don't I find you who is more talkative?"
Few people are unaffected by the oppressive feeling emanating from Qi Wushuang, so Mu Yili's reason for not approaching Qi Wushuang to discuss cooperation makes sense.
As for her reasons for finding herself...
Hearing the words "you and I both know it well", Ye Wuwei had some associations, but he did not ask further.
"I can hand Mu Yiyang over to you, but I don't know who else the Princess mentioned is involved in."
"I wonder whose life the commander wants to save?"
"I'm not trying to save anyone's life, but I don't like being implicated.
If it is later proved that Princess Yunshang and the wife of the Prince of Chu were not involved in the rebellion, then I also hope that the Princess of Chu will show mercy to them.
There are also some innocent soldiers and civilians, and I hope the Princess will show leniency to them."
The reason why Ye Wuwei said these words was because he thought it was not easy for Princess Yunshang to marry into Nanling for decades.
If Princess Yunshang had not been in cahoots with Mu Yiyang, Ye Wuwei wanted to save her life.
As for Mu Yimei, Ye Wuwei did it for Chu Fuchi's sake.
Mu Yili thought for a moment:
"Can.
But if they were involved in the rebellion, the commander cannot interfere with my killing them."
"That's natural."
At this point, Ye Wuwei asked, "I wonder how the Princess of the County can convince your uncle and the others?"
Mu Yili looked directly at Ye Wuwei and said, "I'm going back to Nanling myself. What does the commander think?"
Ye Wuwei thought for a moment and said, "Yes."
Mu Yili breathed a sigh of relief.
Her biggest worry was that Ye Wuwei would not let her return to Nanling.
"Commander, aren't you worried that I'll never come back after returning to Nanling?"
"It's not that I trust the Princess, but even if she never returns, it won't be a big loss for the court.
But if the Princess can successfully persuade your uncle and others, it will be of great benefit to the court.
But, if the Princess is sincere in her cooperation, shouldn't she show some sincerity?"
"I wonder what sincerity the commander means?"
"I will send someone to accompany the Princess to Nanling. To protect him, the Princess will have to take poison.
After the matter is accomplished, I will give the antidote to the Princess."
Ye Wuwei's request was actually within Mu Yili's consideration, so she did not hesitate, but said:
"Then I have one more condition."
"Please say."
"After this is accomplished, I will become the chieftain of Nanling."
Ye Wuwei only thought about it briefly:
"If it was you who facilitated this internal and external collaboration, I will make sure you become the chieftain of Nanling after it is recovered.
Of course, if you hadn't instigated this collusion, I wouldn't have had to agree to anything."
Ye Wuwei agreed so readily that Mu Yili was stunned.
"Don't you think it's wishful thinking for a woman like me to want to be a toast?"
“Why should I think so?
If you can really facilitate the court and Nanling to cooperate with each other, it will be enough to prove your ability. I believe you can handle the position of chieftain.
As for your identity as a woman, I personally don't think that this is a reason why you can't be a chieftain, and I don't think you are wishful thinking.
Of course, it's also because your father no longer has a son.
If your father still had sons, it wouldn't be so easy for you to become a chieftain."
Hearing Ye Wuwei say this, Mu Yili felt like she had found a close friend.
In Nanling, there are fewer restrictions on women than in Chamdo, and the status of women is higher than that of women in Chamdo, but it is still shocking for a woman to be a chieftain.
Although Mu Yili was confident that she could secure the position of chieftain, she thought Ye Wuwei would not agree.
At least not so readily.
Unexpectedly, Ye Wuwei did not think that she was wishful thinking at all, but instead thought that it was reasonable for her to make such a request.
And Mu Yili could feel:
Ye Wuwei said this not to perfunctorily answer her, but from the bottom of his heart.
This was enough to move the ambitious Mu Yili.
Ye Wuwei didn't say these words out of thin air.
In history, there were many female chieftains under the chieftain system of a certain dynasty.
Although those female chieftains usually ascended to the position by inheriting their husbands' positions, they held office for a long time, demonstrating their extraordinary wisdom and governance capabilities.
The status of women in the Qi Dynasty was higher than in many dynasties in history, and the status of women in Nanling was even higher, no less than those in areas under the chieftain system.
Mu Yili herself was the daughter of a former chieftain, and her uncle's family was a prominent family in Nanling. It was not a fantasy for her to become a chieftain with the support of the imperial court.
And from Ye Wuwei's theory of original mind:
He hopes to do his best to give more equal opportunities to people with ambition, ability and perseverance, regardless of gender.
Mu Yili solemnly assured Ye Wuwei:
"Commander, I will do my best to facilitate internal and external cooperation between the imperial court and Nanling."
"Have you figured out how to get to Nanling?"
"Tomorrow I will pretend to be sick, and then move to Zhuangzi under the pretext of being infected with the epidemic, and then secretly set off from Zhuangzi to Nanling.
I am very familiar with the terrain of Nanling. I will return to Nanling through a secret path and will not attract Mu Yiyang's attention."
Ye Wuwei took out a pill from his pocket:
“This medicine will not affect people for three months, after which an antidote must be taken.
If you regret it now, it’s not too late. I will just pretend I have never seen you today.”
Mu Yili took the medicine without hesitation and said, "I trust the commander."
Ye Wuwei said nothing more, only said:
"When you arrive at Zhuangzi, the people I sent to Nanling will come to Zhuangzi to look for you."
"Okay, I'm leaving."
Looking at Mu Yili's straight back, Ye Wuwei felt some emotion in his heart:
There is no shortage of outstanding and determined women in any dynasty!
Among the famous female generals in history alone are Fu Hao, Hua Mulan, Mu Guiying, Fan Lihua, Liang Hongyu, and so on.
These are just very famous celebrities, and there are countless ordinary and strong women.
It was Qi Chao, whose biological mother Ye Hongxia was also a female general with outstanding military achievements.
Among the ordinary people around us, Ye Lingling and Xiao He have both suffered hardships, but they are living strong and getting better and better!
