Ba Ba Song said bitterly: "Master Cui (in this era, the Hu people used to call tribal leaders master, and they also called Cui Hong of the Han family in Hebei Province the same way, continuing the name of grassland). Do you want to use this time to eradicate the grassland?"
Can the wealthy families in Qinghe County benefit themselves?"
Cui Hong shook his head: "I have moved to Pingcheng since I pledged my allegiance to Your Majesty. Qinghe County has no property for a long time. If there were any, then this military expedition would also hurt my family. How could I say this? What happened earlier?
I have said that this matter is entirely out of public interest and nothing else!"
Tuoba Gui laughed, showing his white teeth: "Very good, he can not only answer orders, but also be able to intimidate Hebei. Send the order, quickly order 30,000 soldiers and horses, I will go in person, massacre Qinghe, and kill ten thousand people."
people!"
As his roar echoed in the hall, a burst of fire suddenly appeared in the brazier in front of him. The rising flames burned the air into billowing heat waves and rushed towards them, making everyone frown slightly. Tuoba Gui
He suddenly jumped up from the dragon chair, took out an iron sword that had been leaning on the edge of the throne, slashed in the air, and shouted: "You bastards, how dare you attack me, you Murong family thieves"
, go to hell, go to hell!"
Babasong's expression changed, and he quickly retreated, while Cui Hong also retreated. The black robe did not turn around, and just retreated calmly. The three of them retreated to a distance of more than 20 steps from Tuoba Gui, close to him.
He stopped at the palace door, and Babasong sighed softly: "Looking at it like this, Your Majesty seems to have some bad memories again."
Cui Hong curled up his lips: "The fire aroused his bad memories. I'm afraid it was the Yan army's night attack in the Battle of Baisi. He has been talking about the Murong family's dog thieves, which also proves this
point."
Babasong turned to look at Cui Hong and said coldly: "Master Cui, you can always make the right choice at critical moments. I remember that in the last battle of Baisi, both Helan Lu and Lu Pu betrayed
His Majesty, they rebelled and launched a sneak attack, but you were the only one who led the troops to rescue them in time. I have always been curious, why didn't you go with them?"
Cui Hong smiled slightly: "Although the Cui and Lu families are both from Hebei aristocratic families, it does not mean that their positions are completely the same. Lu Pu is just like the typical Han family in Hebei that Master Baba just mentioned. They have been independent for many years and only accept
The title of the Northern Dynasty is not controlled by it. In fact, it is just a separatist power to protect itself. However, our Cui family, at least our family, actively surrendered to His Majesty. We abandoned our ancestral home at home and came to the grassland with our family to serve as the Tuoba family.
From the day we pledged allegiance, we made a choice. The fate of our family will only be connected with the Wei Dynasty, sharing life and death, regardless of honor or disgrace!"
Ba Ba Song gritted his teeth and said coldly: "It seems that Mr. Cui is really different from other northern Han people. But I don't believe it now. You agreed to go to Qinghe and kill ten thousand people for the sake of the Wei Dynasty.
good!"
Cui Hong said calmly: "When Lord Wang Jian suggested killing 70,000 Yan army prisoners, didn't Lord Baba not oppose it to the end? In fact, you and I have done our best. You are a close relative of the Tuoba clan. You can
I have to remonstrate with you, but I, Cui Hong, am just a Han Chinese who came to surrender halfway. I cannot act against His Majesty's will. In recent years, the rebellion in Hebei has been unstable and has never been truly quelled. Your Majesty has long been interested in using thunderous means to establish your authority.
It’s just that there is no reason. This time there is a message from heaven, so what reason do we have to stop it? If I had opposed it just like you just now, I am afraid that I would become a sacrificial flag for this operation and hang my head."
Baba Song turned to look at the black robe and said coldly: "Great Wizard, since the Helan Witch lost her divine power, Your Majesty has obeyed your words, but I advise you to be kind. If anything happens to Da Wei, you will
You won’t do any good.”
The black robe said expressionlessly: "I'm just conveying the order from heaven. Those tortoise shells are sacred objects, and no one can do anything about them. Lord Baba, your majesty has already given the order. I think you should go and order it now."
All the troops and horses are assembled, ready to go out with the troops."
Baba Song stamped his feet bitterly, turned around and walked out of the palace. His voice came against the wind: "Great wizard, take good care of your majesty. If something goes wrong with him, you know the consequences!"
The palace door opened and closed. Cui Hong breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the black robe, and whispered: "What do you mean, are you crazy? Do you want to destroy my clan by Tu Qinghe?"
Heipao smiled slightly: "Then you were so loyal and loyal just now. Lao Cui, you are good at acting."
Cui Hong gritted his teeth and looked at Tuoba Gui, who was still slashing with his sword in the distance, looking like a madman, and sighed: "If you don't act, you will die. Cui Li just wants to preserve the dignity of the Han family and is unwilling to obey everything.
Tuoba Gui gave the order to kill him, but Zhang Gun only recommended Lu Pu. He almost lost his life for his contribution to the founding of the country, and was finally dismissed from office and died in depression. It was really hard to be accompanied by these moody Hu people.
You are accompanied by an evil tiger. If you are not careful, you will die."
Heipao smiled and said: "Then why didn't your father and son work together like Helan Lu and Lu Pu to kill this evil tiger? If you had counterattacked at that time, your chances of winning would have been great."
Cui Hong looked at the black robe and said bitterly: "Didn't you appear suddenly and persuade me not to rebel? At that time, you said that Murong Bao was a mediocre master and that even if you helped him, there would be no benefit. Now follow me
What are you talking about?"
The black robe nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that you have judged the situation correctly. You can get along under the mediocrity, but it is impossible to make achievements and gain power. At most, you can only be like those rich people who are still in Qinghe.
, to be a rural landowner. You must have had new ideas when you were catering to Tuoba Gui just now."
Cui Hong's expression changed and he smiled slightly: "I really can't hide anything from you. However, I am also hesitant. If I show my kindness to the people of Qinghe and tell them to run away, this person will talk too much and the news will inevitably leak.
If, on the other hand, I leave no traces and send people to secretly spread the news to let them escape, the benefits will not fall on me, so why do it? Isn't it too obvious if we only inform our Cui family to escape? "
The black robe shook his head: "If you are just a commoner in Qinghe, then you will die. It doesn't matter. Anyway, many of them are refugees from various places in troubled times, and they are resettled in Qinghe to share their fields. It's just the major families who have lived in Qinghe for a long time. You are still the best."
You can send someone to notify them secretly and let them run away. Remember, only with the support of the powerful families in Hebei can you be able to secure your position as a feudal lord for thousands of years!"
