Liu Yu laughed: "Is this the balance you want? Murong Lan, do you think we are three-year-old children and lie to you like this? This was the condition of your original alliance. So far, we have never
I have done something sorry for your Murong family, but it was you who betrayed the alliance twice, and now you come here to talk about balance, can you please save some face?"
Murong Lan said calmly: "Our Murong family has suffered all the humiliation in order to restore the country. What shame can we say? Now we don't believe in any promises. We only believe that strength is the prerequisite for negotiation. You Jin people,
The reason why we cooperated with us was just to overthrow the powerful Qin State at that time. Now that the Qin State is in chaos, its demise is inevitable. Even you, Liu Yu, think about regaining all the lost territory all day long, so how can you tolerate it?
The existence of our Murong clan and the Yan Kingdom? Therefore, we must ensure that your Jin army cannot reach the Yellow River."
Liu Yu said coldly: "This is our Jin Dynasty's matter, I can't make the decision. Moreover, if the Yellow River really drinks, if you can regain Hebei at that time, we will not be able to go further. What's more, you said
What does it have to do with Yuxi?"
Murong Lan said seriously: "My proposal is that I help you obtain the jade seal and bring it back to the Jin State. With this thing, you can legally accept the inheritance of the Qin State. Compared with recovering the Central Plains, this emperor's rightful
Status is even more important. Back then, when the Xie family was able to conquer Hebei, they could ignore the occupied land and return it with the seal, becoming a top family from then on. If I can help you get this thing from Guanzhong today, the Xie family will be even more important.
You will be overjoyed. Moreover, with the current relationship between the monarchs and ministers of your Jin country, if the Xie family's Northern Expedition achieves such a great achievement, even if it does not take Guanzhong and Hebei, it will be considered a great achievement."
Liu Yu laughed: "What do you think Mr. Xie is? He has the ability to conquer the world, how could he give up because of a stone?"
Murong Lan shook his head: "Liu Yu, Liu Yu, you have never really been to the north, especially Guanzhong and Hebei. How do you know that the people there will be towards the Jin Dynasty?"
Liu Yu was at a loss for words. He once heard Liu Muzhi say that Han and Qiang people had been living together in Guanzhong for more than a hundred years. Even since the Yongjia Rebellion, the number of Han people had begun to be less than that of the Hu people. During the previous great chaos in the north, there were more Han and Qiang people in the Qilu area of Hebei Province.
There were refugees going south, but few people left Guanzhong. It is true that people's hearts did not favor the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This was the fundamental reason why Huan Wen failed to achieve full success when he reached Guanzhong during his last Northern Expedition.
Murong Lan saw Liu Yu was silent and sneered: "Just like when the Qin army went south, Han people like Yanzhi would rather abandon their homes and businesses than be ruled by the Qin army. In places like Guanzhong and Hebei, the Hu people are worse than the Han people."
If there are too many, it is impossible for them to accept the rule of your Han people all at once. Even if they conquer it temporarily, they will be difficult to govern. From the perspective of the Xie family, it is enough to regain the Central Plains, Qilu, and all the land in Henan, and get another jade seal.
His achievements are unparalleled and his name has gone down in history. We have almost reached the point where we can withdraw our troops. Otherwise, why do you think they agreed to draw a river as the boundary last time?"
Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I don't want to talk to you about these things. I am a soldier of the Jin Dynasty, so I will naturally follow orders. But, even if we want the jade seal, we can get it ourselves, why should we?"
Cooperate with you? You Murong clan only care about your own interests and have always betrayed your allies. We have been fooled twice before. Why should I take this risk again this time? Give me a reason first."
Murong Lan smiled slightly, flipped her hair, and a fragrance suddenly filled the air, making people drunk: "The reason is very simple, because we Xianbei people have lived in Guanzhong for many years, and we know the situation in Guanzhong and Chang'an very well.
, and our Murong family is well aware of the secret information in Fu Jian's palace and secretly accessed the secret room. This time, instead of leading troops to attack Chang'an and directly snatching the jade seal, you can only take advantage of the chaos to sneak into Chang'an and wait for an opportunity to steal it. Liu
Yu, ask yourself, if you were left to go alone without our help, would you be able to do it?"
Liu Yu was speechless. At this time, he considered the issue carefully. Indeed, he knew nothing about Chang'an. With his current level of nonsense, he was afraid that the secret would be exposed when he got to Guanzhong. It was impossible for one person to control it.
With your sword, just cut down the millions of barbarians in Guanzhong, and then rush into Chang'an to get the jade seal.
Seeing Liu Yu like this, Murong Lan smiled slightly and took a step forward. The faint fragrance was even more refreshing: "Liu Yu, actually you also know that our Murong family has many dead warriors and assassins, many of whom are highly skilled in martial arts.
The terrain of the Qin Palace is well understood, and it is not too difficult to obtain the jade seal. To say the least, it makes no difference whether you are with us or not. The reason why I came to Jin Dynasty to propose this matter to Mr. Xie is to express my sincerity. The Xie family and you
You think differently. You want to regain the entire Western Dynasty and restore the territory of the Han Dynasty at once, but you have never considered that there are tens of millions of barbarians in the Central Plains, and their number is no less than that of you Han people. You can drive them all out.
Since we can’t kill them all or expel them all, we can only slowly assimilate and integrate them. When there is no obvious difference between the Han and the barbarians and they all engage in the same farming work, then this troubled times will end.”
Liu Yu looked at Murong Lan with a glint in his eyes: "Why should I believe you? In theory, you can make ridiculous claims, but your eldest brother can instruct you to betray me at any time. You can't even resist yourself. Really?
Now that the jade seal is in hand, you Murong family can take it and give orders to Hebei, what can I do?"
Murong Lan shook his head and said sternly: "Liu Yu, don't worry, our Murong family is Hu people, Xianbei people, this is a national jade seal, you Han people recognize it, we Hu people don't think it is so important. We started from
Hebei does not enter Guanzhong from the west. If we say we can get this jade seal, I am afraid no one will believe it. We Hu people only regard the strong as the king, and only those who calm the world in troubled times can win the followers of everyone. Therefore, this
The jade seal is our gift to you, and it can also be regarded as a small apology for betraying the alliance twice before."
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Is it that simple? I'm about to be persuaded by you, but I still feel something is wrong. You, the Murong family, have no profit and can't afford it early. There is no need to take such risks in order to have a good relationship with our Dajin.
, I don’t believe you can do this kind of thing of making wedding clothes for others. So, you still can’t deceive me!”
Murong Lan looked into Liu Yu's eyes and remained motionless for a long time before sighing: "Okay, you win, Liu Yu, I really can't hide anything from you. Xie Xianggong already persuaded me to do so.
Unexpectedly, you are still unmoved. Liu Yu, although my eldest brother forbids me to say it, I still tell you that the real purpose of taking the jade seal and giving it to you is not to make a good relationship with the Jin Kingdom, but to never let Yao Chang's
Qiang people, get this!"
