Chapter 395: Hard Refusal

Because this is now in Murong Lin's courtyard, the little eunuch is comfortable and proud, and he has neglected the investigation of the city, and it must be impossible to find out here for a while.

Therefore, Murong Yu was also a little relieved in his heart, and he was not nervous to ask Murong Lin and them to talk in the room, which also saved his son and daughter-in-law from being nervous.

"Lin'er, you don't have to be nervous, although the court has been oppressing us, but after all, it is just a eunuch who is responsible for passing the word, and he doesn't have the ability to climb to the head of this king."

Murong Yu said a word to persuade Murong Lin to put his mind at ease, and watched Feng Xiaoyue obediently bring a cup of tea from Xiao Yu's hand to serve herself, and felt a little comforted in her heart.

"Xiaoyue, you also sit down here. This king has come today to discuss other things with you, and you don't have to be in a hurry to entertain you, this king will sit down and say a few words before leaving. ”

Feng Xiaoyue nodded, sat down hand in hand with Murong Lin, and then asked directly. "The prince came here today, but it was for the holy decree sent by the palace."

Hearing this, Murong Yu bowed his head, although he didn't speak, but looking at his appearance, he also guessed eight or nine. Next to him, Xiao Yu and Xiao Yun brought two cups of freshly brewed flower tea from behind, so as not to be thirsty when they chatted.

Murong Lin stretched out his hand and brought the cup in front of him a little farther away, and then propped it on the table with one hand, "What is written on it, it is worth such fanfare from these people, haven't we already sent the things that the emperor wanted?" ”

"It is because of this batch of grain that His Majesty is jealous and wants to deal with us." Murong Yu said in a deep voice, the temperament of the whole person is still much calmer than that of Murong Lin.

"Or should it be said that this batch of grain is just a fuse, Your Majesty has long been in charge of our affairs here, and will do everything possible to push us into a desperate situation."

Murong Yu's words were vague and ambiguous, and if people who didn't know heard it, it was really hard to understand what it meant. Murong Lin knew one of them: Murong Si would definitely regard Li Wangfu as a thorn in his side, and Feng Xiaoyue saw another aspect.

"This year's income of the domain depends on the saplings and vines that grow near the water, His Majesty suspects the harvest of the domain, but there is no evidence, and he doesn't have much to say, but now that the holy decree has been sent, I am afraid that the existence of these things has already been known."

"That's right," Murong Yu looked up at the sky, the sky outside had gradually darkened, and there were many stars hanging up in the night early. He saw that it was not too early at this moment, so it was not good to be wordy.

"Your Majesty wants us to hand over the 'Sacred Tree', otherwise we will be punished, but looking at what the Holy Decree says, they only know the existence of these things, but they don't understand what they do.

"Now that everyone has chased to the door, no matter what he means, just say Lord Wang, do you have any countermeasures?" Feng Xiaoyue's body is more afraid of cold, and unlike the physique of the two big men at the same table, she must rely on hot tea to get some warmth. She took a sip of fragrant tea, holding the cup in both hands, looking at it lightly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Murong Yu sat up straight, glanced at his son and daughter-in-law opposite, and then said tentatively, "This king thinks that more things are better than less, cut down this tree and send it to forget it, and the court of the province will take advantage of this matter to go online, which is not good for the people in the city." ”

This is just one of the points that Murong Yu meant, the reason why he thinks like this, on the one hand, is for the sake of the people in the city, and on the other hand, he is not used to the posture of the little eunuch, but he did not finish speaking, what kind of reaction did the two of them have to Xiang Qiao Qiao.

Sure enough, Murong Lin was the first to come out to object. "How can this be, we have already paid the food for the imperial court. And before, there was a shortage of water in our city, and we didn't see any assistance from the imperial court, so we got the benefits, and I wanted to come and grab them one by one. ”

"Not to mention the role of this tree, it is not so miraculous, even if it is really handed over, then Your Majesty doesn't think that we are responsive to our requests and give whatever we want, then it will only be more oppressive in the future."

What Murong Lin said was reasonable, but it was only a superficial phenomenon, and he did not propose a substantive solution, Murong Yu listened quietly, and then looked at Feng Xiaoyue, who had not yet spoken.

Feng Xiaoyue lowered her eyes, and with one hand she pushed away the nuts on the table, and after noticing Murong Yu's gaze, she thought that he didn't agree with Murong Lin's words very much, and wanted to hear what she meant, so she couldn't help laughing.

"Lord Wang, I also agree with Murong Lin's words."

When the words landed, the atmosphere of the entire garden also calmed down a lot, and the four books came back, and Xiaoyun Xiaoyu and the others each occupied a corner, vigilantly looking at the surrounding situation, so as not to have ears on the wall.

Murong Yu didn't say much about this, nor did he remind them, since these little guys want to do their part, then let them go.

He only calmly lifted the tea on the table, opened the lid, and sniffed the fragrance inside, but he didn't drink a sip. "It smells good in the tea, but I don't know if it tastes as good as the outside. If you have said this, I wonder if you have anything that can convince the king? ”

"The prince hasn't tasted it, how do you know if it's good or not, these things can be seen from the essence of not just appearance." Feng Xiaoyue said, and Murong Lin next to him pinched two pecans with his bare hands for some reason, and the flesh then split in half, and fell on the table and staggered.

"As Murong Lin said, my reasons are actually the same as his. And from other aspects, we know that this sacred tree does not have any special effects, but His Majesty does not know,"

"If this tree is sent up, and Your Majesty doesn't see any effect, won't he be even more furious, and when the time comes, the crime of bullying the king will be even more ugly than the current situation."

Hearing this, Murong Yu smiled silently, he knew that Feng Xiaoyue's remarks were exaggerated, but he couldn't find any other reason to refute it, after all, this unknown possibility would rather be believed than not.

"Then in that case, do you have any excellent countermeasures, can make this eunuch go back willingly to restore his life, and will not ask the emperor to surrender."

"The prince's words are inevitably too exalted to me, and I am not a god, how can I be swayed, Your Majesty's meaning." Feng Xiaoyue shook her head lightly and laughed twice, her tone was floating and melancholy, but there was a faint meaninglessness.

"There is no solution to this matter."

When the words landed, Murong Lin couldn't help but reach out and gently pat him on the back twice, and Murong Yu felt very fresh when he heard this answer. Although his status is not high, he has rarely heard anyone dare to speak like this, so he can't help but be interested.

"If you have this idea to advise the king, you must think of a perfect solution, otherwise it would be too irresponsible to say only half of the words without reckless consequences. Although you are the daughter-in-law of this king, if you make such an inappropriate joke, this king will definitely not tolerate it. ”

"Father," Murong Lin twisted his eyebrows slightly, not understanding why he suddenly pointed the finger at his own people? But she still has the same calm posture, as if the sky is falling apart in front of her, and it will not make her feel moved.

"There is really no solution to this matter, all the methods we think of are based on the situation that we can persuade to change with the power of the future, but if the people above are completely unreasonable, even if we have a three-inch tongue, it is impossible to deal with such a situation perfectly."

This is not Feng Xiaoyue's nonsense, when Murong Si became the emperor, he was worried that someone would be unfavorable to him, so he would definitely be more cautious.

But now that the country has gradually stabilized, Murong Si has become interested, indulging in drunkenness and gold all day long, and has not dealt with political affairs much, but he is still wary of the vassal kings in various places.

Maybe it's because Murong Si himself relied on this method to get to today's position, so he is so jealous.

Murong Yu listened, and he didn't know whether to laugh in his heart, admiring Feng Xiaoyue's situation clearly, or being helpless, and falling into such a stalemate.

"As you said, we can only use the least impactful way to deal with it, and refuse to hand it over to the Divine Tree, but after His Majesty surrendered, do you probably want to get a countermeasure?"

Feng Xiaoyue held her hands on the cup again, and the nuts she peeled off were placed on the small plate in front of her, but because Murong Si was present, she must be embarrassed, and it was not good for him to taste it, so she could only be so deadlocked.

"It's not that it hasn't happened yet, how can I know that the prince is really a strong man."

"What if it happens? What can I do about it. Murong Yu saw that Feng Xiaoyue meant that he didn't want to be too sharp, leaving more room for himself and Murong Lin to play.

But because of this, he could guess what Murong Lin would say, so he wanted to ask what kind of way to deal with it from her Feng Xiaoyue's point of view.

Feng Xiaoyue pursed her lips and refused to answer, and Murong Lin next to her crushed two walnuts in her hands, as if she already had an idea in her heart, with a light smile on her face, she naturally spoke on her behalf.

"Then the only way to respond to all changes is to see how Your Majesty handles it, and then we can adapt to the situation. The so-called praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, and those who can settle down and wait will be the final winner. ”

"Although Your Majesty is the lord of the world, it is impossible not to be afraid of public opinion, you still have to follow the laws of the imperial court, otherwise how should you rule the world."

After Murong Lin finished speaking, Feng Xiaoyue also raised a smile. Murong Yu saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but close his eyes and nodded.
