On this day, the two monarchs and ministers sat down to discuss the law, all talked about each other very happily so that they forgot to sleep and eat, the Jin country has a master such as Lin Mu, and there are ministers such as drama Xin, and now the Jin country wants to change the law, and the form is very good.

A few days later, Lin Mu's henchmen Su Hao, Ying Zhan, Cao Yan, and Ju Xin were summoned to the palace mansion together.

In addition, Ning Yuan was also summoned.

In the palace, Lin Mu held a banquet, and at this moment, Su Hao and the other four were all there, but everyone was waiting for the same person.

"Your Majesty, Ning Yuan has arrived!" The palace attendant said.

"General Ning is here?" Lin Mu on the seat said with a smile, and finally fell on Su Hao and the others, these henchmen, especially Su Hao, understood in their hearts, and all the gentlemen looked at each other and smiled silently, or raised their glasses to drink, or greeted each other.

At this moment, Lin Mu is going to sing with Su Hao and others with a red and white face, and release the military power with a glass of wine!

After a while, Ning Yuan arrived.

"Greetings to the king!" Ning Yuan bowed and said, General Ning is not cautious today.

"Hahaha, General Ning, hurry up and excuse me." Lin Mu smiled kindly, and immediately stretched out his big hand and said loudly: "General, please take a seat!" ”

Lin Mu said with his big hand to the right, and there was an empty seat in the front row. During the Warring States Period, the right was respected, which meant that he should sit here. However, Ning Yuan was shocked and uncertain in his heart, and when he raised his eyes and looked around, Su Hao, Ying Zhan, Ju Xin, and Cao Yan were all Lin Mu's confidants and close ministers, and none of them sat in the upper right seat.

In this case, there is a taste of inviting you into the urn. Ning Yuan was worried in his heart, a few days ago, the Sun clan and the other six Qing were destroyed, and they were all involved in supporting Ji Huan, and the Ning clan was no exception, but only the Ning clan was not extinguished.

Today's Jin Kingdom, Lin Mu is already the real absolute master, in charge of the Jin State and centralized power, the current Jin State, even if all the old nobles want to resist, they are not the opponents of Lin Mu, who has absolute military power, so they dare not obey.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ning Yuan bowed again, and then sat down nervously, the feeling of isolation and helplessness at the moment made him sit like pins and needles, completely unaware of what the other party wanted, how not to panic in his heart?

At this moment, Lin Mu and the four confidants were all smiling, toasting each other, tasting wine and discussing food with each other, and the happy situation all showed that the monarch was inviting the big guy to eat and greet each other today, nothing happened, but Ning Yuan didn't believe it.

After a little time passed, Lin Mu seemed to be drunk when the wine was strong, and suddenly called off the attendant and began to say unabashedly "with the help of wine": "Today's widow knows that the first time he entered the Jin Kingdom, Lin Mu had no foundation at all, and he actually led the army to crusade against the Liang State. However, the position of the monarch is too difficult to do, and now the widow does not dare to lie down day and night! ”

Ning Yuan's heart was slightly paused, he had long known that he was not more fierce and less auspicious when he came to see him today, and when he heard that there was something in this "words of wine", Ning Yuan hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Why did the king say this?" Who in the world doesn't know that the king is the descendant of the Jin Kingdom, and now it is the destiny of heaven, who dares to have different intentions? ”

Lin Mu nodded noncommittally, but he was silent.

"Definitely!" At this time, Su Hao suddenly said leisurely: "Since ancient times, for more than 500 years, the dynasty has been chaotic and the society is sluggish. After that, he immediately sat upright, and then added: "According to Su Hao's foolish opinion, I think that because the Qing nobles have too much power, they have self-esteem because they monopolize the government and government, and outside, they hold heavy troops and respect themselves, so how can the country not shout nonsense?" ”

"What the gentleman said is very true." Cao Yan, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly echoed Su Hao's remarks, and then bowed to Lin Mu on the seat: "The king is tolerant, the minister thinks that the Qing clan has all the military and political power, and the power is too great, which is the key point of the sluggish Jin dynasty and the sluggish society. If the military and political power are concentrated in the hands of the monarch, the Jin country will have no worries! ”

Cao Yan said nothing, but saw Lin Mu inviting the cup to point at Cao Yan and nodded again and again in appreciation: "Cao Qing's words are deeply important. Good! ”

At this moment, Ning Yuan still can't see that Lin Mu and these people are singing a red-faced and black-faced drama, and they are also living their age to the dog, this situation is Chi Guoguo's little military power to get rid of him, and if he doesn't get it, he will cause death, but he doesn't dare to agree with Su Hao Cao Yan's words head-on, otherwise wouldn't it be equivalent to admitting that he was the chaotic minister and thief?

Without waiting for Ning Yuan to speak, Lin Mu suddenly said with a smile: "Mr. Why should you point to Sang and scold Huai, I heard that in the ears of the widow, I am not saying bad things about General Ning, this time Sun Gu and other Liuqing rebellions were quelled by the widow by thunderous means, although the general was deeply implicated, the widow also knew that the general was really involuntarily, (Ning Yuan) The general was loyal to me, and he couldn't help himself during the felling of Liang, how shallow the words of such villains!" ”

Su Hao bowed his head again and again and admitted his mistake: "What the king said is very true, Su Hao is indeed vulgar, I believe that General Ning has no other intentions for my lord, and will not be like the Sun family and other Liuqing, but according to Su Hao's opinion, the Ning clan has been the secretary of the Jin Kingdom for three hundred years, even if General Ning is loyal to my lord, but one day if the Ning clan is dissatisfied and makes trouble, I am afraid that General Ning is also the same as the Liuqing now, and he can't help himself!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Ning Yuan's heart trembled, he was restless in horror, he could no longer be calm, his face was anxious as if he was crying, and he got up in a panic and came out to bow to Lin Mu, and said with a big salute: "Back to the king, the minister implores the king to show Ning Yuan a way to live!" ”

"General, hurry up and excuse me!" Lin Mu hurriedly said, as if he had sobered up in an instant, and the wine was completely gone, but he said with emotion: "Life has been in the world for decades, but it is as short as the white horse passing through the gap, and the thoughts and desires are just to hope to get rich and seek to be expensive, which is nothing more than gathering more money and benefiting future generations to avoid poverty (liǎo). Since the general asked the widow for a way to survive, the widow did have a plan...... If the general releases the military power in his hand, he will return to his hometown to retire with success. Then go to the place to buy more good land and beautiful houses, set up an eternal inheritance for the children and grandchildren, and benefit the future generations. In addition, buy more singers and dancers, beautiful wives and concubines often accompany them, drunk and lying on the knees of beautiful women, drinking and enjoying each other day and night, singing and making music every night......

…… How fast, isn't it beautiful? ”

Lin Mushu, who was eloquent, looked at Ning Yuan, who bowed his head, and replied with a smile, involuntarily opening his arms.

has said it so clearly, and there is even no place to maneuver, now Lin Mu has already firmly grasped the Jin Kingdom, and the little soldiers in his hands must not compete with today's Lin Mu, this time I am afraid that I don't want to do anything to make the Jin Kingdom bleed in vain, and try to preserve the national strength of the Jin Kingdom as much as possible.

With a bitter sigh in his heart, Ning Yuan knew that it would be impossible for the Ning family to gain power in the Jin Kingdom from now on, and obeying his orders could either give up wealth and nobility and because of his meritorious service in the Jin Kingdom, he could protect the family from the scourge of annihilation.

I saw Ning Yuan bow his head and obey the order, and said, "Thank you for the king's kindness!" ”。

"Come!" Lin Mu suddenly invited the cup and said with a loud smile: "Today, I will wait for the monarch and the ministers to be drunk and not return!" ”

The next day, Ning Yuan on the main hall said to Lin Mu that he was sick and was not conducive to being in charge of the army, and asked to remove him from all military and political affairs such as military power.
