Chapter Seventy-Two: The Alliance Fails
"It is now that the Ming Dynasty is an important minister of Yu Qian." Lu Yunzhi replied, and then briefly explained the existence of a word and the hatred between Yu Qian and Zhongzheng, everyone in the Murong family looked at each other but was not surprised, which made Lu Yunzhi feel very strange. As soon as Lu Yunzhi finished speaking, Murong Chengcheng stood up and said, "Then aren't you cheating on us?" Since Yu Qian is now in power, then we can't start a war with the Ming Dynasty. Fighting a war is not a joke, not to mention the loss of labor and money for the time being, because these can be supplied by Fang Qingze, but with the current situation, overthrowing Yu Qian and overthrowing Daming are no different. The danger is too great, in case of failure, we will not only be with Yu Qian, but even with Da Ming. If we fail, then you can be defeated and flee, and we will also be ruined and exiled? ”
Murong Longteng looked at Murong Cheng appreciatively, but scolded in his mouth: "Cheng'er is not allowed to be rude. After speaking, Murong Longteng squinted his eyes and asked, "Senior Nephew Lu, your request is really a little difficult. "It's okay, then you don't have to march, just camp at the border pass, and the Ming Dynasty will reply to the capital under the watchful eye, saying that the border pass is urgent." In this way, the border towns will also strengthen their defenses, which will not allow Timur to have casualties but also play a role in involving the Ming army, I think this is not a difficult thing for the Murong family's power in Timur. Brother Murong Cheng's doubts about the war can also be solved, even if we fail, you can still call yourself a military exercise to Daming, and you will not provoke yourself. Lu Yunzhi replied lightly.
An old man with gray hair but still very handsome looked took a sip of tea and said, "Naturally, it is not difficult, but you can ensure that there will be no friction during the confrontation between the two sides, which will lead to a real war." Or can you make sure that no one is deliberately stirring up friction for ulterior purposes? "What do you mean!" Fang Qingze saw the old man talking to Lu Yunzhi insinuatingly, and he slapped the table on the table angrily for a while and shouted.
Lu Yunzhi stretched out his hand to stop Fang Qingze, the old man laughed proudly, but Murong Longteng said loudly: "Since ancient times, if you have interests, you can talk about everything, come on, Senior Nephew Lu, tell us about the benefits you can bring us." Lu Yunzhi smiled slightly and said: "Originally, the Zhongzheng family and the Murong family are good friends, and after helping us, the Zhongzheng family will not forget the kindness of the Murong family, and it will also provide supreme convenience for the future exchange of techniques of the Murong family and the study in the Central Plains." Secondly, we are willing to open all the classics in our Zhongzheng lineage to the Murong family for your study. Benevolence and righteousness are always more reliable than all promises, just like the last time we came to Timur for the first time, when your Murong family was in trouble, although we came and didn't have time to help, Uncle Murong rushed back to settle those ghosts and witches, but we also came thousands of miles to help, this is benevolence and righteousness. I hope that the Murong family can also be worthy of our intentions and be more benevolent to us. ”
Murong Longteng and everyone in the Murong family nodded one after another, although the first time Lu Yunzhi and others came was because Timur declared war on the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty sent a mission, but Mr. Shi led the Zhongzheng family to come because he was worried about the situation of the Murong family. In the end, it was indeed as Lu Yunzhi said, Murong Longteng himself settled everything, but the kindness of Zhongzheng was forever engraved in the hearts of everyone in the Murong family.
Murong Longteng was silent for a moment and said, "That's true. It stands to reason that we should help the Zhongzheng lineage, if we let the Murong family help all of us as you did, I, Murong Longteng, can agree for the whole clan now, and we will not hesitate. But if Timur is allowed to send troops, the price will be a bit great. As for the conditions proposed by Master Lu's nephew, it is indeed very exciting, although we have communicated with each other in recent years, but we still have reservations, which is also human nature. ”
"The conditions are very good, but the bad thing is that someone is one step ahead of you." Murong Longteng said. Lu Yun's heart was cold and asked, "What person?" Murong Longteng didn't answer, just waved his hand, and the six family members walked up with a few large wooden boxes, and after the wooden boxes were placed in the hall, Murong Longteng said, "Senior Nephew Lu stepped forward to see what these are." ”
Lu Yunzhi and Fang Qingze walked forward quickly and opened the wooden box, which was full of brand-new books, which seemed to be classics that had just been copied. Lu Yunzhi picked up a book and opened it to read, but he was shocked, threw down the one and picked up another one. When Lu Yunzhi saw the tenth book, he closed the box heavily and asked, "These are all manuscripts of Zhongzheng Yixing classics, who sent them?" ”
Murong Longteng didn't answer and looked at Lu Yunzhi silently, Lu Yunzhi sighed and said, "Yu Qian beat me once." Murong Longteng nodded and said: "Yes, although I haven't seen this Yu Qian, he is indeed not a mortal, he clearly understands what we want most, and they also offer better conditions, he said that he wants to annihilate other heaven and earth people in the Ming Dynasty." If we can catch you who come to ask for help, the classics of those branches will also belong to us, you know that the Murong family likes to collect secrets from all over the world, maybe we are a little paranoid about it, but it is really tempting. Murong Longteng said, and Murong Cheng actually stood up, as if he was going to do it immediately.
Fang Qingze sneered and said, "Do you want to do it with your skills?" Murong Longteng smiled and replied: "Zhongzheng Yimai has been friends with the Murong family for generations, and I have a very good personal relationship with Mr. Shi, where can I help others." I can only endure the pain and cut my love, ignoring the temptation of other branch classics, and as for sending troops to help you take revenge, it is not for me to make a decision alone. The other leaders of the clan don't quite agree, and we have already accepted Yu Qian's gift, so we can't help you, Uncle Shi is here to make amends for you. As for helping Yu Qian catch you, I will never do it, and whoever mentions this matter again will be an enemy of our Murong family. ”
Murong Cheng didn't sit down, but just looked at Lu Yunzhi and Fang Qingze angrily, and suddenly shouted: "Where is Murong Yunfei, you and Qu Xiangtian are sworn brothers, and this matter is not over." It's okay not to help Yu Qian, but you should give us an explanation for Murong Yunfei's affairs. Saying that, everyone from the Murong family actually surrounded them, and the white clothes they were wearing were slightly agitated, and it seemed that there were ghosts and spirits or other hidden weapons.
"Stop, what are you doing here! There are wronged debtors and owners, we will find Qu Xiangtian to ask for clarification in this matter, it is not their business, even if they are caught, it will not help. Murong Longteng shouted.
Everyone stopped and retreated, but their eyes were full of hostility. Lu Yunyi hugged his fists and bowed in a square and said, "In this case, my two brothers will leave." Saying that, he and Fang Qingze were about to turn around and leave, but Murong Longteng hurriedly followed behind and said, "Two nephews, let me send you off." Lu Yunzhi nodded, he knew that Murong Longteng must have something to say.
