Chapter 65, three countermeasures
There were two people at the front of the welcoming procession, a white-haired old man and a black-haired middle-aged man, who were none other than the old patriarch of the Feng clan and his nine brothers.
After everyone landed, the Nine Elders waved their hands, and many Feng Clan elders and leaders lined up on both sides, like a guard of honor, waiting for Mu Jinyun and the others to review.
There are also hundreds of colorful phoenixes, dancing in the air, singing praises, this posture, than welcoming the king of a country, there is no better.
Among the three distinguished guests, a woman is as beautiful as a flower, a little boy is well-behaved and cute, and a second stunned man in shorts, which one is Mu Jinyun at a glance.
After walking a few steps, the old patriarch of the Feng clan and the ninth elder came to Mu Jinyun's side, held his hand, and asked for warmth, the eldest son and the eldest son were short, without the posture of the elders, and the etiquette was quite thorough.
The eldest prince was furious by them, what do you mean, they came to me together, what is the reason for this, is it because of the love of the ancestors, no!
How many generations have passed, and even if there is still some affection, it should have faded a long time ago.
Immediately understood a few points, well, Bacheng is the same as that Liu Min, he wants to invest in Lao Tzu, what is this called, by the way, "From the dragon's work!"
If you figure it out, you will know how to deal with it, of course, people have a lot of courtesy, and he doesn't need to pretend to be arrogant, neither humble nor arrogant, polite, the three of them talk and laugh and get along with each other very happily.
Gong Shaoxue watched coldly from the sidelines, her eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, she didn't know which play the Feng clan was going to sing.
In fact, not only did she not understand, but many people in the Feng clan were also puzzled by this arrangement.
Everyone didn't understand why the old patriarch and the ninth elder took such a lot of trouble with a human race.
Everyone can see very clearly, this kid is just a mortal, and there is nothing special about it, do you need to be treated with such condescension?
After the three of them finished greetings, they walked forward hand in hand, and there was a phoenix chariot parked on the side of the road, which seemed to be prepared for guests, and Mu Jinyun couldn't help but be proud when he saw it.
In the past, when I was in the mortal world, the vehicle that the emperor Lao'er sat on was called a dragon car, but where did the real dragon pull the car, it was not bad if it was not pulled by a donkey.
Although Lao Tzu's car is not a dragon car, it is a real phoenix, and it is not bad compared with the dragon car.
Gong Shaoxue took the lead in boarding the car, and after checking it, she beckoned Mu Jinyun and the others to sit up.
After they all got into the car, the colorful phoenix pulling the car rose into the air and flew towards the center of Fengfu Mountain.
The interior of the car is very luxuriously decorated, with fresh fruit and wine, and a pair of pants, which is placed in a very conspicuous place.
It can be seen that the image of the distinguished guest's shorts is not phoenixy, and people also hope that the future king of Tianze will quickly change into normal clothes.
......
This walk, it was another half a day, just when Mu Jinyun was drowsy, Feng Yuan finally arrived at the place, Caifeng slowly landed, and the three of them walked down from the car.
What appeared in front of him was a large hall, magnificent and large-scale, and the two elders of the Feng clan rushed up from behind and invited Mu Jinyun and others to enter the hall to gather.
Mu Jinyun happily obeyed, and the guests and hosts were in a harmonious mood and walked to the conference hall together.
In the hall, the Feng clan feasted, the old patriarch of the Feng clan forced Mu Jinyun to sit on the main seat of the banquet, and he and the ninth brother accompanied each other.
After the banquet, Mu Jinyun and the others were arranged to rest in the pavilion, and the nine elders personally sent them off until they sent the guests into the room, and then they left.
Leaving the inn, the Nine Elders did not rush back, but went for a walk in the mountains, admiring the natural beauty while secretly thinking to themselves.
After a long time, the people of the clan rushed over, and when they saw him, they hurriedly bowed down and said, "Ninth Elder, where are you, the old patriarch invited you over, I have been looking for you for a long time." ”
The Ninth Elder nodded, followed the clansman back to the council hall, and found that the banquet had long been withdrawn, and the old patriarch was sitting alone on the main seat, slowly sipping tea.
After seeing the nine brothers, the old patriarch asked with a smile: "Old nine, where have you been, you can't find it everywhere, come, tell the old brother, what is your idea?"
The Ninth Elder smiled, and arched his hand towards the old patriarch and said, "Big brother, it is precisely because of this matter that the younger brother deliberately went to the mountains to meditate, and this time he was about to explain it to the eldest brother. ”
"Okay, tell me about it!"
"Big brother, when it comes to Mu Jinyun, the younger brother has figured out three countermeasures for the eldest brother to choose, as for which one to choose, the eldest brother needs to decide personally!" the Ninth Elder muttered.
When the old patriarch heard this, he stepped down from his seat, dragged two chairs on the side, took the hands of the nine brothers, and the two brothers sat down facing each other.
"Lao Jiu, you kid has the most ideas, what are the best ideas, tell the old brother quickly!"
"Big brother, the three countermeasures of the younger brother are the prudent strategy, the mediocre strategy and the risky strategy, I don't know which one the eldest brother wants to listen to first?"
The old patriarch glared at him, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Old Jiu, don't sell it, let's talk about all three countermeasures!"
"Big brother, forgive me, I'm used to talking like this!" the ninth elder smiled apologetically, "Then the little brother will make it clear, let's talk about the prudent policy first, this policy is only the friendship of the landlord, and there will be no contact with each other in the future, neither will suffer a loss, nor will it take advantage." ”
"Let's talk about mediocre strategies, not only to be polite to him, but also to try to make friends with him, but never mention the matter of helping him to resume business, compared with the former, it is just more familiar. ”
"In the end, it's a risky strategy, we not only have to be polite, but also do our best to help him recover, and bet the fate of the Feng clan on him, both glory and humiliation!"
Speaking of this, the Nine Elders stared at the old patriarch: "The three countermeasures of the junior brother are all presented here, how does the eldest brother plan to choose?"
The old patriarch of the Feng clan was silent, and he was not in a hurry to express his position, and after thinking about it again, he said slowly.
"Lao Jiu, you were brought up by me and your sister-in-law, our husband and wife usually love you the most, and trust you the most, the eldest brother is not as wise as you, don't let the eldest brother be embarrassed, talk about your judgment, the eldest brother is really unable to make decisions!"
Elder Nine got up from his seat, pulled his clothes and knelt down on his knees, and the old patriarch hurriedly got up and said: "Old Nine, what are you doing, get up and talk, get up and talk!"
Elder Nine grabbed the eldest brother's hand and said in a choked voice: "Although the eldest brother and sister-in-law are my brother and sister-in-law, they are really my parents, the nurturing grace of my brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Jiu is unforgettable, since the eldest brother asked so, then Xiao Jiu will also speak bluntly." ”
"Okay, brother, brother, I'll listen to you!"
"Big brother, at this time, safe and mediocre strategies are not available, if you want the Feng clan to prosper, the only way to take risks is to go all the way!"
The old patriarch smiled and nodded: "I'll guess your thoughts, you kid, you still want to go around in circles with the old brother, tell me, what's in it?"
The Ninth Elder smiled apologetically, and then said seriously: "Big brother, after my clan chose to escape from the world, so many years have passed, the clan is content with the status quo and does not want to forge ahead, and the younger brother is worried that if we continue to be comfortable like this, our clan will eventually lose all its sharpness, this is one of them." ”
"The ancestors of our clan and the ancestors of Mu Jinyun are close friends, they have fought bloodily for the country of Tianze, and have never flinched after several generations, and then because of the rebellion of Chen Haotian, our clan despises its character, so it chose to escape the world, such as the return of the old lord of Ze today, our clan should continue to take over the former alliance, this is the second. ”
"I look at Mu Jinyun, his courage and intelligence are far better than in his previous life, such a hero can not be found, this may be the opportunity for our Feng clan to prosper, this is also the third. ”
The Ninth Elder looked at the old patriarch and said sincerely: "Big brother, what the little brother thinks has been fully explained, as for how to decide, please make a decision for the eldest brother!"
The old patriarch was noncommittal, raised his hand and slapped it lightly on the head of the nine brothers.
"Stinky Xiaojiu, there is still something to hide, the first two reasons are quite pertinent, and the last one is nonsense, it's just a meal together, how do you know that Mu Jinyun is a person who can be trusted, and he won't tell me the truth!"
The Ninth Elder smiled awkwardly, leaned forward in his chair, and whispered in the old patriarch's ear: "I can't hide anything from the eldest brother, the last reason is indeed that the brother is talking nonsense, whether he is a hero or not, where do I know." ”
"Stinky boy, if you don't know, you dare to bet the fate of a clan on him, in case a non-human, wouldn't it bring disaster to the whole clan!"
The Ninth Elder shook his head, "Big brother, my brother is gambling, but it's not a bad bet, and the reason why I plan to do so makes sense." ”
"What's the reason?" asked the old patriarch.
"It's very simple, looking at Mu Jinyun today, he behaves generously during the banquet, answers correctly, and is quite heroic in his words, even if this person is useless, it is not too bad. ”
"Well, that's a reason. The old patriarch nodded in response.
The Ninth Elder smiled slightly, and said with a thief's eyebrows: "The two people beside him, has the eldest brother forgotten?"
The old patriarch was stunned for a moment, then reacted and looked at him with inquiring eyes.
The latter nodded vigorously, "Jade Immortal Sect, Tianwei Country, tsk, the young sect master of the Jade Immortal Sect has a soft spot for Mu Jinyun, and a fool can see it, and the little master of Tianwei has a brother-in-law, the background of our old friend, it's big!"
"Even so, if Mu Jinyun has no intention of resuming business, wouldn't it be humiliating for us to express our stance so easily. ”
The Ninth Elder laughed: "Big brother, you are too worried, as the saying goes, the arrow has to be sent on the string, Mu Jinyun has been the arrow since he returned, and if he can't send it, he doesn't count!"
"Oh, are you so sure?" asked the old patriarch curiously.
"I'm very sure, big brother, I've been paying attention to the situation in Tianze, among the old ministers of the previous dynasty, there are still many people who care about the old master, and now that the old master has returned, how can they continue to hibernate?"
"In addition, Chen Haotian will never allow his existence, there are old ministers persecuted in the front, and there are mortal enemies chasing and killing in the back, he wants to live a comfortable life, is it possible?"
The old patriarch of the Feng clan stood up and paced back and forth in the main hall with his hands behind his back, and the ninth elder was not in a hurry, sitting on the side and watching him quietly.
After a long time, the old patriarch finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, stepped over, and pulled the nine brothers up from their chairs.
"Let's go, Lao Jiu, let's go to the ancestral temple now and offer incense to the ancestors!" Elder Nine didn't know why, and followed the eldest brother to the ancestral temple.
After the brothers entered the house, they each took a stick of incense and knelt in front of the ancestor's tablet.
"All the ancestors and ancestors, not the descendants of Fengming Mountain to the ancestors of the ancestors, now, it is related to the prosperity of my Feng clan, I am willing to raise the clan to press on it, if there is a mistake, Fengming Mountain is willing to accept all the blame, please ancestors, protect my Feng clan Daxing!"
The Ninth Elder was shocked: "Big brother, who are you?"
The old patriarch waved his hand at him: "Old Jiu, give incense to the ancestors!"
After the nine elders finished the incense, the old patriarch took his brother's hand and walked out of the ancestral temple together.
The two brothers sat down on the stone steps outside the door, and the old patriarch patted the ninth brother on the shoulder.
"Lao Jiu, the eldest brother believes you, you just tell me what to do, if there is anything missing, the eldest brother will bear it!"
The Ninth Elder nodded solemnly, and then whispered in the ear of the old brother, and the old patriarch couldn't stop nodding.
