Five years ago, in 285 A.D., in the northeast of Liao, black clouds overwhelmed the city.

Outside the city, on the hills, the lonely figure of a man was uninhibited in the bleak night wind. The man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and muscular, eight feet tall (about 1.92 meters in today's size), with a tall nose, fair skin, and clear eyes in his sunken eye sockets. Dressed in a linen-colored coarse cloth robe, it was difficult to hide the cold arrogance and luxury around him. Another gust of wind swept by, and the man couldn't help but take a deep breath, and his face, which was as delicate as a sharp weapon, suddenly came alive.

Suddenly, in the pitch-black sky, three rockets rose into the air, and in the blink of an eye, the fire in the city rose to the sky as if it were day. The man's calm eyes suddenly rippled!

He is Murong Diao.

It is the unique Murong Dian of the Murong family.

It is Murong Diao, who was amazed by Zhang Hua, the general of Anbei in the Western Jin Dynasty, as "the instrument of life, and the talent of Kuang is difficult to help".

The sound of fighting in the city came, and his breathing began to be rapid, and tears suddenly fell from his eyes. In the tears, on the night of the wind and snow more than two years ago, the bloody disaster that tore apart the family relationship resurfaced

Murong Diao knelt in front of his father's spirit, and he was just fifteen years old, and he suddenly faced a danger of life and death: his father Murong Shegui had just been buried, and his uncle Murong Nai openly declared at the clan meeting that his nephew was too young and that he should be in charge of the clan; The rest of the tribal leaders either echoed or remained silent, while his half-brother Murong Tuyuhun was also silent.

"Young master, go away! Murong Nai has already sent someone to arrest you! ”

The sound of horses' hooves accompanied by anxious shouts woke up Murong Diao, who was still praying in front of his father's spirit. is Uncle Mu Yu's subordinates, after his father's death, only Uncle Mu Yu, an elder of another branch, has been secretly protecting him. He hurriedly took the package from the person who came and rushed into the snowy night......

Fifteen-year-old Murong Diao wandered around and endured hardships until Xu Yu, a Han native of Liaodong County (present-day Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province), took him in. For more than two years, Murong Diao has lived in the Han region, quietly practicing kung fu and concentrating on the etiquette and law of the Han people.

In the following two years, the form of the Xianbei Murong tribe also reversed. After Murong Nai usurped power, he was unkind and unfair, and the people in various ministries complained. Seeing that the time was ripe, Uncle Mu Yu instigated the tribal leaders to make a move, and at the same time sent people to welcome Murong Diao back.

Today is Murong Nai's death!

A group of men and horses galloped to the front, and the first one turned over and dismounted, bowed his head, and said in a trembling voice: "Welcome the young master into the city!" "It's Uncle Muyu! Murong Diao picked him up and hugged him violently, tears flowing!

On this night, the sword light and sword shadow, the shout shook the sky. Blood sprayed on the snow-white curtain, like a flower blooming in the snow. And lying behind the curtain was the heinous Murong Nai.

This is the blood of the Murong family! Murong Diao closed his eyes, and his heart was instantly sad and old!

This night's coup d'état was like a storm that sneaked in the middle of the night, weird, neat, and quietly terrifying. The next day, when all the officials opened their eyes, they found that Xianbei Murong had changed to a new master.

Seventeen-year-old Murong Diao officially succeeded to the throne, and the Murong family began the most glorious era of revitalization in history.

A month later. The autumn breeze is rising.

Murong Diao sat in the big tent. The fair-skinned face looked unusually pale after the rage. An hour earlier, he had just received a reply from Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Western Jin Dynasty, that his request to attack the Xianbei Yuwen Department had been rejected. Murong Diao took the case: "Sending troops, I want to make their Han area in the Western Jin Dynasty and Liaoxi unpeaceful!" ”

A few days later, a squad of Xianbei cavalry in formal suit appeared in the Han residential area of Liaoxi County (present-day Lulong County, Hebei Province). Before people could blink their frightened eyes, the cries, screams, shouts, begs for mercy, and blood sprays resounded in the quiet wilderness of Liaoxi County. The resentment and pain that had been suppressed in Murong Diao's body for two years exploded in the thrill of conquest, and the domineering, bloodthirsty and ferocious in the bones of the Murong family erupted in an instant.

This was only the beginning of the Xianbei cavalry's harassment of the Han Chinese, and for the next few months, the Han people of Liaoxi County lived in unease and panic. As a result, helpless people began to support the old and the young, and left their homes

Luoyang, the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty, was placed in front of Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty for the twists and turns of Murong Diao's attack on the border. Emperor Wu was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

A month later, the elite troops of the Jin army defeated Murong Diao at Feiru (northeast of present-day Qian'an County, Hebei Province). The young Murong Diao was impulsively punished and fled back to his hometown in embarrassment.

Murong Diao sprinkled all his evil anger on the Buyeo country in the northeast, the small Buyeo country could not withstand the beating, the king committed suicide, the royal family fled, the capital of Buyeo (now Yushu City, Jilin Province) was flattened by Murong's army, Murong Diao captured more than 10,000 people and returned to the division victoriously, which was a long sigh of relief.

286 years, summer. Murong Diao was pondering his next target in the tent. The spies came to report: "The remnants of the remnants led by Yiluo, the prince of Buyeo, are being escorted back to their homeland by the Jin army, intending to return to the country. Murong Diao ordered the troops to intercept halfway and wipe out all the remnants of Buyeo and the Jin army.

This time, what Murong Diao heard was still not good news, but the news of the defeat of the army and the restoration of Fuyu.

Since then, Murong Diao has disturbed the side again and again, and has been defeated again and again. In the confrontation with the Western Jin Dynasty, Murong Diao finally discovered a truth, only being able to bend and stretch is the way to preserve.

In 289, after another large-scale raid on the border, Murong Diao unexpectedly sent envoys to Luoyang to ask for surrender. Sima Yan had already mobilized people and horses to prepare to completely solve Murong Diao, but now seeing that Murong Diao took the initiative to show goodwill, he was in the middle of it, so he issued an edict appointing Murong Diao as the governor of Xianbei, but he didn't know that this was Murong Diao's trick.

People always have to learn to grow up, and Murong Diao learned to eat the weak in the sinister of the clan coup, and also learned to cultivate obscurity after the failure of blind expansion. The eldest husband can bend and stretch, but he can't beat the grandson first, which is another excellent gene of the Murong family in addition to being tall and handsome, brave and good at fighting.

Murong Diao pretended to be a grandson while recuperating. Seeing that Liaodong County was remote and remote, he moved the tribe to Qingshan (east of Yixian County, Liaoning Province) in Tuhe County (now Jinzhou City, Liaoning Province). At this time, the Murong Department was still nomadic as a business, coming and going, galloping uncertainly.

At that time, Yuwen and Duan's two departments were getting stronger, and their strength was much stronger than Murong's, so they would bully Murong from time to time and rob something. Murong Diao swallowed his anger and often gave some generous gifts to these two families.

At this time, Murong Diao went to visit Duan Jie, the chief of the Duan clan, with a generous gift, but saw a woman walking out of the tent. I saw that the woman's face was so white that it was almost transparent, a pair of bright eyes, a small pointed chin slightly upturned, and a delicate red lip like a cherry. When the woman suddenly saw Murong Diao, she was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a shallow smile, a flush flashed on her face, and she left quickly

After learning that this beautiful girl was Duan Jie's beloved daughter, Murong Diao worshiped Duan Jie, and the first thing he did when he returned to the ministry was to send someone to prepare a generous gift to Duan Bu to propose marriage. He decided that if he married this Duan family woman, not only would he be accompanied by beautiful women, but once the marriage between Murong and the Duan family was successful, he would have the strongest ally, which would be of great benefit to the future of his clan.

Duan Jie received the dowry and immediately laughed, this kid from the Murong family is not only handsome, has property but also is polite, and he likes it very much. When I asked my daughter again, Miss Duan had already fallen in love with Murong Diao at first sight and secretly promised her. So, Murong Diao married Miss Duan as he wished.

This Miss Duan later gave birth to three sons, Murong Hao, Murong Ren, and Murong Zhao, of which Murong Hao was the founding monarch of the former Yan Empire.

Since then, the Duan family and the Murong family have married from generation to generation, and among the several Yan regimes established by the Murong family, there have been several very famous Duan concubines. Even after the demise of the Duanbu, this in-law relationship was maintained.

During the period of pretending to be his grandson, Murong Diao asked the Han people who had moved to the northeast to teach the farming techniques of the clansmen, began an agricultural settlement life, and learned the system of the Jin Dynasty, and the legal system was exactly the same as that of the Western Jin Dynasty. At this time, seventy or eighty percent of the high- and middle-level civil officials in the Murong Department were Han Chinese, and Han nationality also accounted for three or four percent of the high- and middle-level military attachés. Murong Diao realized that if he wanted to be strong, he had to change his course, and it was useless to always play the wild road of wandering around and grabbing when he was gone.

In 291, Murong Diao heard that Da Thorn City (now northwest of Jinxian County, Liaoning Province) was the capital of one of the Five Emperors, so he moved the capital to Da Thorn City (it can be seen from this that Murong Diao was not small).

Murong Diao, who has gone through several trials and hardships, is no longer the newborn calf who is not afraid of death, he not only learned to cultivate obscurity, but also learned to "do great things with wisdom", not with strength. At the same time, Murong Diao also formulated a new foreign policy with Murong characteristics: grasp with two hands, one hand is soft, the other hand is hard, and if you don't eat the soft, you will come to the hard.

For the Duan clan, Murong Diao used soft tricks, while against the feud Yuwen clan, he used tough means.

Autumn. The Ministry of Yuwen sent troops to conquer the Great Thorn City. At this time, Murong Diao was familiar with the Han soldiers' books and trained soldiers in Tuntian, which was no longer what it used to be. He avoided the edge, personally led the army, and took the deputy commander of the Yuwen Department who had not yet gained a foothold by lightning and attacked Su Yan, the deputy commander of the Yuwen Department, and beat him to the ground.

In short, in the northeast, another powerful opponent of the Great Jin has risen quietly. And the Jin Dynasty family in Luoyang is still living a luxurious life of drunken dreams and death, drunk and drunk today, and the crown prince Sima Shu is trying to escape from the cage of Luoyang in order to compete for a glimmer of life.

Finally, after a long wait, with the help of Zhang Hua, Empress Jia agreed to the prince's departure from Beijing. Sima Shu had no way of knowing what happened in the middle, Zhang Hua just asked him to inform him that a month later, His Majesty would order the prince to leave the palace to pray for the first emperor.

"Congratulations to Your Highness, congratulations to Your Highness, your wish has finally been fulfilled!"

"It's not the time for the manager to be happy, as long as he doesn't leave Luoyang, the palace won't relax. In addition, from tomorrow, the governor will begin to recruit various craftsmen and purchase grain. Although this time, my father gave us a royal village, but with the surname of Empress Jia, how could she leave us good things, so some things must be prepared in advance! ”
