Chapter 49: Temptation
Chen Mu's sudden praise immediately won Lin Moyu's favor.
Although he was tall and burly, Lin Moyu's personality was extremely quiet and easy-going, and he slowly bowed his hand at the moment: "What a sentence of the son, the world is unique, go down later, write out the topic, and hang it in the study."
After a while, Chen Mu slowly sat down, and then began to talk about business.
"Last time, there was a great change in the palace, if it wasn't for the old man who came to the rescue in time, I'm afraid Tokyo would have been in chaos a long time ago."
Beigong Gu poured a cup of tea for Chen Mu with his own hands, and said with a smile: "After all, the old man is different from the other feudal kings, he had a bond with your father and queen mother when he was young, and now you are in need of help, how can the old man stand by and watch?"
"However, the younger generation has always had a doubt, it happened suddenly, Tokyo is a month's journey away from Xiliangzu, how did you know the news in advance?"
As soon as he heard this, he saw the father and son smile mysteriously.
"This thing...... I can't say it, but don't worry, Your Royal Highness the Prince, you will know in a few days. ”
"Huh?"
Chen Mu was a little confused by the two of them, Chen Mu has always been curious about this matter, he thought that he could solve the doubts in his heart today, but he didn't want to, but this old man played mysterious.
Chen Mu didn't ask much, and continued: "What's more, now the center of the Dragon Dynasty has been covered by the Liu family, speaking of which...... Although the younger generation is even a prince, but in the end it is very weak, and the courtiers at the bottom do not obey discipline and act recklessly, so the younger generation ......"
Chen Mu's posture is extremely humble, if it is not an exaggeration to beg, but there is no way, to put it bluntly, he is just a prince who has been stripped of power, and now he needs a backer very much!
Putting down dignity now is for others to better pick up dignity in the future!
But without waiting for the last word to be spoken, Lin Moyu hurriedly picked up the teacup and said to Chen Mujing: "Your Highness, as the future prince, we and other courtiers should be at the disposal of the marquis, right, father?"
Lin Moyu smiled kindly, Chen Mu was stunned, and he also threw a touch of gratitude at the moment.
Lin Moyu's interjection left himself with dignity.
"That's right, now Your Majesty has let His Highness supervise the country, and we, as well as the 120,000 Xiliang army under his command, will be the most solid backing behind His Highness, even if His Highness doesn't mention it, the old man will fully support His Highness."
Regardless of the relationship with the old emperor, when it comes to the righteousness of the country, it is also incumbent on him to help the prince stabilize the government in the north palace, and now the dragon dynasty is full of vassal kings, all of them are ambitious, and there are foreign races looking around, if the court is chaotic again, the day when the dragon dynasty will fall apart is not far away.
His ambition was small, and even if there was an opportunity to support the puppet emperor right now, he didn't dare to do it.
His ambition is also very big, he dares to gamble everything to save the country from danger, and the building will collapse!
"The junior has thanked Uncle here!"
Hearing the word uncle, Beigong Gu, who provoked him, laughed, glanced at the figure hiding behind the curtain and eavesdropping, and after thinking about it, he teased: "But...... The old man has a request, and I hope His Royal Highness will agree. ”
Chen Mu's face froze, and then he arched his hand and said, "Uncle, please speak."
"The old man has a daughter, and now he is also at the age of leaving the cabinet, the old man wants to marry you, so kiss and kiss, what do you think?"
As soon as these words came out, the father and son both held back a smile, and Beigong Lin Xue behind the curtain couldn't help complaining when she heard it, this old guy really has nothing to do!
Chen Mu was a little surprised after hearing this: "The younger generation didn't listen to outsiders, her uncle's daughter ...... her"
"Haha, that's all folk rumors, what do you think of the old man's proposal?"
Although Beigong Gu was joking, he was actually testing Chen Mu, although he didn't say it directly, but the implication was that he was making his daughter the crown princess, so as an exchange of power.
It can be seen that Xue'er has endured all the hardships and has been with this prince for ten years, let's see if he will abolish Xue'er's crown princess for power.
This is a test of human nature, of course, even if the prince is not emotional, he will choose to help consolidate the court, but how to help next? Whether to do your best, or to be careful, one of them said.
At this time, Chen Mu also knew the meaning of Beigong Gu, in his heart, Xue'er had always been a candidate for the crown princess, since the queen mother was deposed, she was by his side for such a hard time.
But now that his situation is gradually improving, do you want to treat her as an outcast for the sake of power?
No way! She can be ruthless and unrighteous to anyone, but she really can't do it.
After a statement in his heart, Chen Mu arched his hand and said, "Uncle, this matter ...... I'm afraid it won't work. ”
As soon as the word "no" came out, the father and son once again got to know this prince, and it seems that he is not a ruthless and unrighteous person.
But at the moment, he still pretended to be unhappy and said: "What, does the prince think that the old man's daughter is not worthy of you?"
Looking at Beigong Gu's suddenly gloomy expression, Chen Mu, who was already begging for others, suddenly felt that the atmosphere of the scene was solemn.
But at the moment, he still said: "Junior...... is already a princess, if you only let your uncle take a thousand gold as a concubine, I am afraid that you will fall behind. ”
"Oh? Not long after the crown prince ascended the throne, he made the crown princess? ”
Chen Mu paused and said very calmly: "There is no concubine, but ...... The crown princess can only be her. ”
Looking at this prince so emotional, Lin Moyu also secretly admired in his heart, being at the peak of the power struggle, it is really not easy to do this step, this prince is a person who can be trusted!
After thinking about it, Lin Moyu asked, "I don't know, which family in the capital is the young lady who makes His Royal Highness behave like this?"
"Speaking of which, she ...... From a small portal, but a girl with a background, the queen mother bought it back to take care of me, I had a hard time for ten years, whether it was a eunuch or a concubine in the court, they all insulted me and bullied me, but this woman has never left me, so ......"
"The younger generation really can't live up to her, so ...... If you want to kiss and kiss, you can't be with your uncle's daughter, but you can't with Brother Mo Yu. ”
When he heard that there was actually his own play, Lin Moyu was shocked!
"I'm talking about getting married to brothers with different surnames, isn't that okay?"
When he heard this, Lin Moyu eased up, but when he heard that he was becoming a brother, his heart really throbbed slightly.
Beigong Gu listened to this proposal, and nodded at the moment, this prince is affectionate, Mo Yu will inherit his position sooner or later, rather than marrying and uniting with himself, it is better to be tied to Mo Yu.
"Mo Yu, what do you think?"
Lin Moyu got up and smiled chicly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very affectionate, when I came to meet the Prince, I only felt that it was like old friends at first sight, and it was better to become brothers with different surnames!"
After that, Lin Moyu took a glass of wine, and the blood between his fingers dripped into the wine with a knife.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, although the custom of Xiliang is a different surname, but once we drink this cup of wine, we are brothers of the same bloodline, come on, it's your turn!"
Chen Mu took the knife, and there was no ambiguity at the moment, as the two bloodlines were intertwined, the two of them drank it all in one cup, and Chen Mu was also successfully transformed.
At this point, the 120,000 Xiliang Army officially stood behind him, and finally had the confidence!
