With Dongfang's ever-victorious personality, if there wasn't room for change, he wouldn't have done anything unnecessary. Everyone knew this, but Zhuo Mufeng still found it incredible.
"Dongfang Qianxue is his only granddaughter and a rare martial arts genius in the world. How could Dongfang Changsheng be willing to marry her to me?" Zhuo Mufeng shook his head repeatedly.
Lou Linxuan's expression became solemn: "This can only mean that this alliance is of great significance to him, surpassing the importance of Dongfang Qianxue to the Dongfang family. Either he is determined to resolve the grudge with his uncle at any cost. Or,
It’s because his plans are so great that he can sacrifice anything!”
Zhuo Mufeng looked horrified, stood up from the stone bench, and said in a deep voice: "I don't believe that old guy can be so generous. Besides, his nature is hard to change. He didn't trust me before, so how could he do it now?"
The two looked at each other, and they both saw a strong look of surprise in each other's eyes. If it was the second possibility, what was Dongfang Changsheng trying to do?
Lou Linxuan: "There are only a few targets, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, my uncle, and Fang Zhaonan. Since he has formed an alliance with my uncle, he will naturally not deal with him in the short term. Fang Zhaonan is far in the north, and he is colluding with the Northern Qi army. There is a possibility that the Dongfang family will provoke him.
Not big. After all, there is only the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Zhuo Mufeng was a little confused at first, but soon understood: "Uncle Lou, you mean Mu Cunyi?"
Lou Linxuan nodded: "The Eastern Zhou Dynasty seems to have come back to life, and its power ranks first among all parties. In fact, it is only Mu Cunyi who supports the external power and the internal power. As long as you control Mu Cunyi, you control the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. But Lou
I have no idea how Dongfang Changsheng would attack Mu Cunyi?"
After saying that, he frowned and thought hard, shaking the feather fan unconsciously with his hand. However, after a long time, his brows were still unresolved, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "The East is always victorious and the world's outstanding people have unpredictable thoughts. Lou Mou cannot deduce it at the moment. But it is certain.
He will never wait decades.
If the time drags on for too long, not to mention the long nights and many dreams, and Dongfang Changsheng does it, if he really marries Dongfang Qianxue, there is no guarantee that Dongfang Qianxue will not betray him and turn around to help his uncle wholeheartedly.
Wouldn't victory mean losing your wife and losing your troops?
Following this logic, he must have taken action in the past few years, but Mu Cunyi's side was heavily guarded. Not to mention the Dongfang Family, it was difficult for even us to successfully assassinate him. If it weren't for assassination, Lou really couldn't have thought of it.
,What method can be used to make Mu Cunyi surrender..."
Zhuo Mufeng waved his hand. It was remarkable that Lou Linxuan was able to push to this level despite a lot of unclear information. He said: "Old Dongfang wants to trick me again. I know it's a trap, so I'm a fool if I jump.
Let him eat the northwest wind in three days!"
Unexpectedly, when he heard this, Lou Linxuan had a strange look on his face. He looked at Zhuo Mufeng, remained silent for a moment and said, "Uncle, I'm afraid the current situation means you can't go."
Zhuo Mufeng suspected that he had heard wrongly and looked back at Lou Linxuan blankly. What do you mean by not going?
Lou Linxuan said helplessly: "Brother, think about it, you made it clear on the ship that the other party must marry Dongfang Qianxue if he wants to marry you. Now that the other party has agreed, but you have changed your mind, what will people think?"
Zhuo Mufeng spread his hands and said, "No, Uncle Lou, I was just trying to avoid it at that time."
Lou Linxuan sighed: "It's true, but Dongfang Changsheng doesn't know! In the eyes of the other party, you clearly have Dongfang Qianxue in mind to ensure the stability of the marriage to the greatest extent. Who doesn't know now?
Are we in dire straits and unable to recover?
Under such circumstances, a more rational person would not marry anyone other than Dongfang Qianxue, or they would have quickly agreed to marry Dongfang Xiaying when they heard about it. Fortunately, my uncle raised the bar at the time and rationalized marrying Dongfang Qianxue.
There was no suspicion from the other party.
But in this case, if you still go back on your promise, with Dongfang Changsheng’s paranoia, 90% of the time you will suspect that we have another way out!”
Zhuo Mufeng was dumbfounded. According to what Lou Linxuan meant, what if he didn't agree? He thought for a while and refused: "Now that the time is approaching, the plan has reached a critical step, so what if Dongfang Changsheng is doubtful?"
?”
Shaking his head, Lou Linxuan said in a deep voice: "We want to counterattack the Dongfang Family's territory, and making the other party relax their vigilance is the key. Once something unexpected happens and the resistance of the Dongfang Family becomes fierce, do you know what the consequences will be? Success or failure on the battlefield,
Often in just a few moments, if the opportunity to fight is delayed even slightly, the situation may be catastrophic. We cannot afford to gamble!"
Zhuo Mufeng insisted: "Dongfang Changsheng may not want to get this level."
Lou Linxuan's tone was solemn: "Do you want to take a gamble? If it works, it will work. If there is a slight mistake, not only will the plan fail, but Jianhai Palace will be completely exposed. By then, our territory in Eastern Zhou and Southern Wu will be completely lost.
, everything will return.asxs., even most of the power of the Demon Sect cannot be saved!"
Zhuo Mufeng's expression changed every time he heard another sentence. By the end, he was completely speechless and no longer had the determination he had before.
Can he gamble? Does he dare to gamble? What Lou Linxuan said is not alarmist. This plan is not 100% sure. If he exposes his flaws because of his refusal to marry, or exposes himself to the vicious Dongfang Changsheng, no one can
The consequences cannot be predicted.
It has been a journey of ups and downs until today, and I finally have the qualifications and opportunity to play chess in the world. If all my previous efforts are wasted because of this incident, let alone I cannot forgive myself, I am afraid that the people who follow me will also feel hatred, right?
This is a game that you can’t afford to bet on, and you can’t bet on it!
Zhuo Mufeng rubbed the corners of his eyes, suddenly thought of something, and exhaled: "The key to this matter is to paralyze the Dongfang family. Even if they form an alliance with them, they can choose another way without having to marry. Or, they can delay time.
, let’s wait until the plan is successful.”
Hearing this, Lou Linxuan coughed and shook his head: "I'm afraid not."
Ignoring Zhuo Mufeng's extremely strange expression, he continued: "Dongfang Changsheng took the initiative to propose a marriage, obviously in order to maximize the peace of my uncle's heart. Now my uncle is taking the initiative to push it out. What's the reason? Given our current situation, as soon as I heard about it,
Dongfang Changsheng agreed to marry Dongfang Qianxue, so it is a normal reaction to agree immediately, otherwise, it will definitely arouse suspicion."
In fact, Lou Linxuan himself felt too tired after saying these words.
Although he is Zhuo Mufeng's adviser, he is also Wu Yuanyuan's uncle. As a result, he is now resorting to persuading Zhuo Mufeng to marry a younger wife. If Miao Qingcheng and Wu Yuanyuan find out, they will probably pounce on him and bite him to death!
The most irritating thing is that Zhuo Mufeng still looks reluctant. You are not asking you to marry a sow, but you are marrying a peerless woman who is as famous as the most beautiful in the world. Even in terms of family background, martial arts talent,
It is far better than the best in the world, but it looks like it is aggrieved and trying to catch a duck, as if it has suffered a big loss.
It’s really irritating to think about it. Ordinary people will never see a perfect woman in their lifetime. This guy is good. I have three of them hidden at home. I just went out for a while and I saw that I was about to get another one. It was forced by the enemy of life and death.
, is the gap between people so big?
When Lou Linxuan was speechless, Master Zhuo said in an extremely reluctant tone: "Is it really necessary to get married?"
Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Lou Linxuan looked up to the sky with a long sigh and replied: "If we can get the Dongfang family to come forward to drive back all the troops and protect the Jinghua Three Paths through marriage, this is of course the best strategy."
In the end, counterattacking the Dongfang Family is a last resort, and the success rate is not very high. It will also expose the soldiers and horses of Southern Wu, and the gain outweighs the loss."
"This..." Zhuo Mufeng muttered.
Lou Linxuan couldn't stand it any longer, so he said: "Of course, if you don't force me, I'll just forget it if I really don't want to."
Zhuo Mufeng was silent for a long time, and finally said dejectedly: "Uncle Lou has made it clear the pros and cons, how can I insist on having my own way? But in this way, wouldn't I become Dongfang Changsheng's grandson-in-law? Damn it, and Yuan Yatou's side
,well……"
Observing his expression, Lou Linxuan suddenly realized that maybe his uncle was not being pretentious before, and the above two reasons alone were indeed enough for him to resist the marriage.
Lou Linxuan then advised: "The situation has developed to this day. My uncle's marriage is no longer my uncle's business alone. It is related to the wealth and lives of thousands of people. Lou believes that Yuan Yatou will understand."
Zhuo Mufeng waved his hands with a wry smile, obviously not having any hope.
Lou Linxuan also secretly had a headache when he thought of Wu Yuanyuan's temper. However, it was Zhuo Mufeng's business to appease him, and he couldn't control it as an outsider. Seeing that Zhuo Mufeng's mood was waning, he quickly said: "Since we are ready to agree to Dongfang Changsheng, then immediately
The counterattack plan has to be suspended, my uncle, Mr. Lou needs to be notified immediately, there is no delay!"
Knowing that the matter was of great importance, Zhuo Mufeng did not hold him back. After Lou Linxuan left in a hurry, he sat down on the stone bench.
Thinking that Wu Yuanyuan didn't even accept Su Zhilan, and now she had to add Dongfang Qianxue, who knew what kind of trouble it would cause, Zhuo Mufeng felt that his head was as big as a bucket and he was extremely irritable.
In the midst of the chaos, the look in Dongfang Qianxue's eyes after he was stabbed by him that night in the wind and snow suddenly appeared before his eyes, and Zhuo Mufeng felt heartbroken.
Zhuo Mufeng didn't know how to describe his feelings when he thought that this peerless woman who was like an iceberg and a snow lotus, who was both his teacher and friend, was actually going to marry him.
But he can be sure that Wu Yuanyuan cannot know about this matter for the time being. How long can it be hidden? Alas...
Three days later, it was still the same awning boat floating in the center of Qingyun Lake.
Dongfang Changsheng watched Zhuo Mufeng leave with extremely complicated expressions on his old face, which seemed like sadness, joy, and helplessness.
Dongfang Tao on the side was also quite speechless.
It is said that life is like a play, and this statement should be applied to the great elder and Zhuo Mufeng. It is really appropriate. Two enemies who fought against each other ended up becoming the father-in-law in the end. This would be unbelievable to anyone.
Especially for Dongfang Changsheng, one can imagine how he feels about his most beloved granddaughter.
