Chapter 411: Secret Conversation Under the Moon
Mu Junhe was somewhat hesitant about Mu Xiayan's solicitation.
At first, he and Mu Junhe thought that the grassland army's attack on Jinling City was just Emperor Shengheng's push along the river.
Therefore, at the beginning, they were more inclined to go to Jinling City to cooperate with the defenders of Jinling City to defend.
But when they figured out that the real leader of the crisis in Jinling City was Emperor Shengheng, and the grassland army was just a knife in the hands of Emperor Shengheng, they had already put out the idea of participating in it.
After all, this is no longer just a question of whether or not you can stop the steppe army.
But now, after Mu Xiayan told the affairs of the Yin Clan and the Qingjia Army, Mu Junhe began to feel that there might be something to be done in this matter.
Maybe they may be able to turn the tide and save the people in the future.
"Uncle Xia Yan, I still need to think about this!"
Although Mu Junhe knew that the grassland army might soon attack the city, he still needed Li Yi to negotiate first.
He knew very well that although he was strong in martial arts and had the courage to be a man and a man, he didn't know anything about commanding the army to fight back then.
Relatively speaking, his junior brother Li Yi is quite talented in this aspect.
And he is often clever when directing battles.
Not to mention the example of his surprise attack on the grassland army and capturing Hai Yin alive, just saying that he escaped the pursuit of hundreds of Vietnamese troops with more than 20 people on Huaishui.
And he also played the famous marshal Nan Ye of the Yue country around.
Therefore, although Mu Junhe is a senior brother, every time they fight on a large scale with others, he will choose to obey Li Yi's orders.
"Do you think that Junhe is not good at the combat strength of our Qingjia Army?"
Mu Xia Yan couldn't help frowning when he heard this.
In his opinion, he had already told Mu Junhe everything he could say.
According to reason, this is frank enough, but Mu Junhe's reaction is obviously hesitant.
"It's not, it's just that Uncle Xia Yan, you don't know that although my personal martial arts are not bad, I still have some shortcomings in commanding the army."
Mu Junhe did not hide it and directly said his shortcomings.
However, after listening to it, Mu Xiayan said with a disapproving smile.
"At this point, you can rest assured that our Qingjia Army has its own military advisers, and they will give you a plan!"
Mu Junhe frowned at this time.
"In this way, it doesn't matter whether the Qingjia Army has someone to command or not, after all, the military advisor and staff will arrange a battle plan for the Qingjia Army below, and everyone will just need to implement the plan when the time comes."
Mu Junhe thought about it and said.
At this time, he had already heard from Mu Xiayan's words that in fact, the Yin Clan's Qingjia Army did not need such a commander as him at all.
Mu Xiayan said this, maybe it was just a bait to win him over.
When Mu Xiayan heard Mu Junhe's words, he immediately realized that what he said seemed to be a little too straightforward, which made Mu Junhe feel his true thoughts.
So he immediately remedied.
"No, no, no, in fact, the most important job of the commander of an army is not to make his own suggestions, but to be able to synthesize the most reasonable plan according to everyone's opinions, and then organize the following army to implement, after all, one person is short and everyone is long!"
Although Mu Xiayan's statement is very reasonable, Mu Junhe has already felt that Mu Xiayan's move is not to sincerely let himself lead this Qingjia army at all.
So he said with a smile.
"Uncle Xia Yan, my master once told me that people live in the world, and their troubles come from themselves, especially those who don't know it."
Mu Junhe continued after putting the teacup in his hand back on the table.
"And I think so, so I often reflect on myself on weekdays, so I know that I am not the commander of the army, and I am afraid that this move will disappoint Uncle Xia Yan's expectations, and I am afraid that it will affect the people of Jinling City."
Although Mu Junhe's words were gentle, they were extremely firm.
"This ...... Junhe, you don't understand what I mean, I mean that the Qingjia Army needs a strong man like you to subdue the different voices in the army so that they can be firmly united. ”
Mu Xiayan's indifference at this time had disappeared, and he began to be a little anxious.
"Uncle Xia Yan, this matter is not appropriate, even if I become the leader of the Qingjia Army, I can suppress all kinds of contradictions in the Qingjia Army, but it is just suppression, the contradictions still exist, but they are artificially hidden, once the battle is frustrated, these contradictions will break out again, and then the entire Qingjia Army will fall apart."
Mu Junhe immediately explained to him seriously.
"This ......"
Although Mu Xiayan is the head of Zongzheng Temple, he doesn't know much about leading troops to fight.
Therefore, he didn't know how to persuade Mu Junhe for a while.
"Junhe, it's better to take you to meet someone like this!"
Since Mu Xiayan felt that he couldn't convince Mu Junhe, he thought of taking Mu Junhe to Mu Chunsheng's side.
After all, it was Mu Chunsheng who ordered him to protect Mu Junhe.
At the same time, Mu Chunsheng wanted Mu Junhe to take over the Qingjia Army.
"Oh! Who is it? ”
Mu Junhe was very curious, this Mu Xiayan was obviously preparing to find someone else to persuade him.
But he, Mu Xiayan, as the head of Zongzheng Temple, failed to convince himself, so who has the ability?
"Just come with me!"
Immediately, without waiting for Mu Junhe to hesitate, Mu Xiayan got up, and then his servants prepared the carriage.
Then he took Mu Jun and closed the carriage.
After a while, they came to the door of Mu Chunsheng's mansion.
At this time, when the servant at the door saw that it was Mu Xiayan who got down from the carriage, he immediately stepped forward and saluted.
"Uncle Chunsheng is sleeping?"
Mu Xiayan didn't care about the other party's salute, he asked directly.
"The head of the family is meditating in the courtyard and has not rested!"
The servant replied immediately.
"Good!"
Mu Xiayan just said a good word and walked into the mansion with Mu Junhe.
Mu Junhe was a little surprised at this time.
He saw that Mu Xiayan had reached the age of sixties, but just now he asked the servant in front of the door, Uncle Chunsheng, if he had slept.
In this way, the person Mu Xiayan brought him to meet should be Mu Xiayan's elder.
Then this person is probably much older than Mu Xiayan.
Of course, it is also possible that the Chunsheng uncle in Mu Xiayan's mouth is just a seniority.
But no matter what, Mu Xiayan, the temple of Zongzheng Temple, is in front of this Uncle Chunsheng, and he has to perform the junior ceremony.
Soon he was dragged into the middle of the courtyard of the mansion by Mu Xiayan.
Although it was night at this time, the moon in the sky was like water, and the whole courtyard was very bright.
Mu Jun entered the courtyard and saw a very huge ginkgo tree.
At this time, there are not a few leaves left on the tree because of the winter.
But under the tree were yellow leaves that had fallen to the ground.
These yellow leaves glow silver in the moonlight.
It's like a silvery blanket in the middle of the yard.
And not far from the tall ginkgo tree, there is a pavilion standing there.
The vermilion pavilion also showed a dark purple color in the moonlight.
As a result, the contrast between silver and dark purple is strong, but the overall appearance is very harmonious.
This feeling of strong contrast and harmony made Mu Jun lose his mind when he was united.
It took him a moment before he came to his senses.
Only then did he realize that an old man was sitting cross-legged on the stone bench of this pavilion.
The old man's white hair also reflected silver light in the moonlight, like the spiritual light above the head of an immortal.
Mu Xiayan pulled Mu Junhe and walked quickly to the pavilion.
Then he saluted.
"Uncle Chunsheng, I brought Mu Junhe!"
Seeing Mu Xiayan saluting so solemnly, Mu Junhe could only bow down.
"The younger generation Mu Junhe sees the seniors."
Because he didn't know Mu Chunsheng's specific identity, Mu Junhe could only be commensurate with his predecessors.
"Haha, you're here, little gentleman! Come over here and let me have a good look! ”
Mu Chunsheng immediately opened his eyes, got up, and said with a smile.
Mu Junhe was stunned at first when he heard this.
He didn't expect Mu Chunsheng to be so kind to him.
"Uncle Chunsheng is the great elder of our Mu clan's Yin clan, and he is also the current controller of the Qingjia Army, and it was Uncle Chunsheng who asked me to come forward to protect you."
Mu Xiayan immediately introduced Mu Chunsheng to Mu Junhe.
After hearing Mu Chunsheng's identity, Mu Xiayan realized that the inconspicuous old man in front of him had such an identity.
"Junior Mu Junhe greets his uncle!"
Immediately, Mu Junhe saluted again.
This time, however, he saluted more respectfully than the previous one.
He was so solemn not because of the other party's status as the Great Elder of the Yin Clan or the controller of the Qingjia Army, but because the old man in front of him was his real life-saving benefactor.
Originally, he always thought that it was his own decision for Mu Xiayan to save him.
But now he knew that the person who really ordered him to save himself was the old man in front of him.
"Okay, little Junhe, you don't have to be like this, we are all a family, so we don't need to see each other like this."
Mu Chunsheng patted Mu Junhe's shoulder again, and then motioned for him to take a walk with him.
"Oh, by the way, Xia Yan, I have something to talk to Xiao Junhe about alone, if you have something, go back first!"
Mu Xiayan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Mu Chunsheng to leave in advance.
"Yes! The nephew retired. ”
After a short period of stunned, Mu Xiayan immediately bowed down and retreated.
It wasn't until Mu Xiayan's figure disappeared at the door that Mu Chunsheng looked at Mu Junhe with a smile again.
"Little Junhe, aren't you very strange, why did I want to break him up first, right?"
"The nephew is indeed a little strange."
Mu Junhe didn't hide his doubts and said casually.
"I think that kid Xia Yan must have told you all about our Yin Clan just now!"
"Yes, Uncle Xia Yan has indeed told me something about the Yin Clan and the Qingjia Army."
Mu Junhe nodded and admitted.
"And how do you feel?"
Mu Chunsheng asked with a smile.
"The existence of the Yin Clan is a hidden danger for the Dayu Dynasty, but it is a guarantee for our Mu clan."
Mu Junhe thought about it and said without hesitation.
"Hahaha! What a hidden danger of the Dayu Dynasty, the protection of the Mu family! ”
Mu Chunsheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
"This is the true opinion of my nephew, and I hope my uncle will not be angry."
Mu Junhe saw Mu Chunsheng laughing so loudly, and he didn't know if he was really laughing or laughing angrily.
So he was very worried that Mu Chunsheng, the old man, would be angry with himself again.
"No, no, no! I'm not angry at all, on the contrary, I'm happy! ”
Mu Chunsheng said to Mu Junhe with a smile while stepping on the ginkgo biloba leaves in the yard.
"You're not mad at what I said?"
Mu Junhe didn't expect that the old man in front of him was not angry.
"You're telling the truth, why should I be angry? I'm not Xia Yan's kid. ”
Mu Chunsheng blinked his left eye and put on a naughty look.
"By the way, don't blame Uncle Zu for not reminding you of this, don't say this to Xia Yan in front of that kid in the future, otherwise he will really be angry."
Mu Chunsheng then added jokingly.
"Remember, boy!"
Mu Junhe didn't expect that the great elder of the Yin clan in front of him would be so open-minded and cheerful.
"Okay, since that kid Xia Yan has already told you some secrets of the Yin Clan, I won't repeat them, now I have to tell you some of the real secrets of the Yin Clan."
"The real secret? Uncle, I don't understand why you are telling me all these things? ”
Although Mu Junhe's mouth asked why Mu Chunsheng wanted to tell him the secret of the Yin Clan, what he wanted to ask in his heart was why he wanted to save himself.
"It's simple, because you're the one who can protect some of the Mu people."
Mu Chunsheng walked under the ginkgo tree, then picked up a ginkgo fruit from the fallen leaves on the ground, and then he handed the ginkgo fruit to Mu Junhe's hand.
"Why does Uncle think this person is me? Nowadays, although the Dayu Dynasty is declining, the strength of many vassal kings in the world is far from being comparable to me, and it should be them who can protect some of the Mu family, right? ”
Mu Junhe couldn't understand why Mu Chunsheng would identify himself.
"Huh! They were all the ones who led Muhammad to their demise, including the big fool Mu Shayan. ”
Although Mu Chunsheng said the survival of the Mu family, his tone was very flat.
Even Mu Junhe's words sounded a kind of calmness.
"Why does Uncle Zu have such an opinion?"
Mu Junhe was very surprised why a person like Mu Chunsheng, who held great power in the Mu clan, had such a sober view.
It stands to reason that he, as the elder of the Mu clan, is a vested interest in the Dayu Dynasty.
As vested interests, they should jump out of their own preconceived notions.
But Mu Chunsheng could clearly see the situation of the Dayu Dynasty.
And he can even arrange to save himself in advance, so that he can save some of the Muhammad people.
It's simply incredible.
And Mu Chunsheng's face once again showed a kind smile.
"Actually, old man, the reason why I have such thoughts is entirely because a hairy boy told me these things many years ago."
"Who would have the ability to predict the current situation years ago?"
Mu Junhe was taken aback.
He couldn't believe that there really was anyone in this world who could predict what would happen many years later.
"You know that hairy boy, too!"
Speaking of this, Mu Chunsheng once again showed a playful smile on his face.
"Oh? Do I know? ”
Mu Junhe recalled it carefully, but in his impression, he didn't seem to match the person Mu Chunsheng said.
"Hahaha! Xiao Junhe didn't expect it here? ”
Mu Chunsheng saw Mu Junhe frowning, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't expect that person, so he couldn't help laughing.
"In that case, I'll tell you directly!"
Mu Chunsheng saw that Mu Junhe really couldn't guess, so he spoke directly.
"That person's name is Liu Yan!"
Hearing this name, Mu Junhe was stunned at first, and then his face changed greatly.
