Wei Rui lowered his head slightly.

He whispered a few words to one of the attendants behind him.

The attendant's face did not change in the slightest, but a look of deep shock appeared in his eyes.

He quietly left Wei Rui's side.

When Wei Rui had spoken to the people who had greeted him, and shortly after entering the station, the attendant led the little girl into the station and came to Wei Rui's side.

The officials and the rest of the staff at the post station were all invited out, these people had great respect for Wei Rui, and naturally they would not feel unhappy, and they knew very well that a character like Wei Rui was the real pillar of the Southern Dynasty, and in such a person, no matter how small a thing is, it is a big thing.

This is a little girl who is described as a little haggard.

She didn't have any weapons on her body, and her demeanor was very quiet, but even this attendant had a hunch of danger when he looked at this girl, so he didn't even leave after bringing this girl, but just sat down behind Wei Rui.

"Let's eat together. ”

Wei Rui ordered some steaming wine and food on the table, looked at the girl, and said calmly: "It's a guest from afar, Luoyang is far from here, and it's not easy for you to come here." ”

"You've already guessed who I am?" Yuan Yan's eyes also flashed with awe, she could be sure that Wei Rui definitely didn't know her whereabouts before, but he could guess who he was at a glance.

"People who are far away from home tend to have the air of people who are far away from home, and people like you, who are burdened with their home country, are even more different. ”

Wei Rui looked at Yuan Yan, stretched out his chopsticks to help her pick up some vegetables, and watched her eat slowly, before he asked while drinking the meat soup: "It's just that I thought you would go to Lin Yi." ”

Yuan Yan smiled, there was loneliness in her smile, but more pride, "You should understand that a person like me can't do it by his own temperament." ”

"That's nature. ”

Wei Rui said: "It's more about responsibility and burden, or sacrifice. ”

"I left the Northern Wei Dynasty by accident, but soon after I realized that it was inevitable. ”

Yuan Yan ate the dishes seriously, and said seriously at the same time: "In fact, even if the subordinates of the Demon Sect don't find out about the relationship between me and Lin Yi, the Demon Sect will betray the Southern Dynasty sooner or later, if he wants to eat meat, it must be the biggest piece, and he has been waiting for the opportunity to eat the Queen Mother of the Southern Dynasty." So when he rebelled back to the Southern Dynasty, I should also come to the Southern Dynasty. ”

At this, she paused.

Her chopsticks paused, and then she also took a piece of meat for Wei Rui, and then said slowly: "I know Lin Yi, according to what I think, if you have to ask someone in the Southern Dynasty for help, you will naturally look for him, but there is no reconciliation between him and the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty, my imperial brother wants to join forces with the Emperor of the Southern Dynasty to deal with the Demon Sect, and only you are the best person to match it." ”

"It's amazing. Wei Rui said with heartfelt emotion.

"It's not me, it's my royal brother. Yuan Yan looked at Wei Rui and said, "It's just that he knows the Demon Sect better than anyone else, and he knows that the Demon Sect will definitely be in turmoil in the Southern Dynasty, but even he didn't expect that the Demon Sect would be able to kill all the people who are the only saints in the world." ”

"I didn't expect that either. After Wei Rui took off his armor, he looked more like an ordinary old man, and he didn't need to hide any of his emotions now, so when he was depressed, he seemed even more lonely.

"Our emperor didn't expect that according to his thoughts, if He Xiu's disciple was successfully killed, the next thing to be eliminated was the Demon Sect, so that the biggest instability would only be Lin Yi, if Lin Yi sent troops to fight, he would become a real traitor, and if Lin Yi was to divide the party, the direct threat to the Southern Dynasty would be less than the previous Northern Wei Dynasty. Next, he can use thunderous means to defeat the Northern Wei Dynasty in one fell swoop, and then slowly solve the party's affairs. ”

Wei Rui smiled bitterly, "Even if I looked at it before, there is no particularly serious problem with this plan, invincibility is invincibility, and the Queen Mother alone is enough to decide the outcome of the battle." If she is a personal conquest, not only can the Northern Wei Dynasty be peaceful, but also can quickly regain the hearts of the people. Any opinion is nothing in the face of the true unification of the North and the South. However, who would have thought that the invincible man died. ”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Yuan Yan's mouth.

She naturally had no good feelings for the emperor and the empress dowager of the Southern Dynasty, but for the Northern Wei Dynasty, she had to abandon her personal likes and dislikes.

"After the Demon Sect rebelled to the Southern Dynasty, my Northern Wei Dynasty was naturally in danger, but in my opinion, after your Empress Dowager was killed by the Demon Sect, Xiao Yan's throne was even more precarious. She looked at Wei Rui seriously and said, "I was entrusted by my imperial brother to come to see you because I know that you don't care about your personal gains and losses, but about the safety of the Southern Dynasty and the stability of these people, so in my opinion, you and I have two choices." One is to talk to Xiao Yan, my imperial brother is actually very willing to talk to him now, he is willing to join forces with Xiao Yan to deal with the Demon Sect, after killing the Demon Sect, we will all stop the sword soldiers. Another option is to put aside him and talk directly to the Chen family, and we will join forces with the Chen family to deal with the Demon Sect, and at the same time let him give up the throne. ”

Wei Rui nodded, he didn't make a statement first, just signaled that Yuan Yan could continue.

Yuan Yan said: "It's just that my imperial brother joins forces with anyone, and it is naturally based on the survival of the Northern Wei Dynasty... So this is just his assumption, and the last thing he wants to find is just the person who is willing to stop fighting with the Northern Wei Dynasty. ”

Wei Rui laughed with emotion, "So the final choice is Lin Yi, presumably for you, Lin Yi should be the one who is willing to stop the sword soldiers with the Northern Wei Dynasty, he shouldn't necessarily think about the confluence of the north and the south and destroy the Northern Wei Dynasty." ”

"If I only represent myself, I will only talk to Lin Yi because I trust him. Yuan Yan nodded, she said unabashedly: "It's just that putting him last, it's not fair to him, and I'm afraid that there is no reconciliation between him and Xiao Yan, I actually don't want my imperial brother to become his enemy in the end." ”

"But for your royal brother, it seems that the situation is also compelling. ”

Wei Rui said calmly, "After all, he is in the party, too far away, and now the people who can affect the survival of the Northern Wei Dynasty the most are Xiao Yan and the Chen family." ”

"Whether you are in cultivation or on the battlefield, you are a true senior, and you should now understand what my imperial brother and I mean. My preferences and those of my imperial brother are not worth mentioning for the life and death of the entire Northern Wei Dynasty. Yuan Yan stopped, she bowed to Wei Rui seriously, and said, "So I want to know your attitude towards this world, I want to hear your opinion." ”

Wei Rui smiled bitterly.

He looked up slightly.

The morning sun was soft, but at this time, it was inexplicably dazzling for him.

He is just an old man, but the funny thing is that the fate of this empire suddenly fell into his hands again.

One choice he made today would completely determine the future of this empire.
