Lu Manxi suppressed the situation with a few words. Everything was revealed in one stroke. Judging from his posture, he wanted to cover up the matter. Everyone could understand this situation, but no one said anything. This Lu Manxi was Lu Yuanxi's eldest brother, or his biological brother. The eldest prince of the royal family is the one who will inherit the throne in the future, and his status is second only to the current emperor.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the brothers Lu Yuanxi and Lu Manxi are not very harmonious. Lu Yuanxi pointed his finger at the journey, obviously trying to force him to find out something, but Lu Manxi suppressed everything as soon as he appeared.
Avoid the important and take the light, and bear all the responsibilities on one person. He made it clear that he wanted to use his status to suppress others, so that even though everyone had something on their mind, they couldn't say it. Especially Lu Yuanxi, he had too much to say on this occasion. He wanted to take advantage of this situation, which was of great benefit to him, to gain a more advantageous position.
But the appearance of his eldest brother disrupted his arrangements and plans. He looked at his elder brother slightly coldly. This elder brother of his was strange and had a weird temperament. Although he has been like a big brother to him since he was a child, he has always felt bad about him, especially when he is so close to him. This is something Lu Yuanxi cannot accept, but he still has to have a certain amount of respect for his elder brother.
Although today I did not achieve my ideal goal, it also allowed everyone to see clearly what happened today. I believe that everyone must have their own understanding in their hearts. Although this is not the most ideal result, it is enough. So he didn't speak and gave the leadership here to his elder brother.
Yuan Yufeng and his party also listened to Lu Manxi's words and hurriedly retreated. It is the common wish of everyone to leave this place full of blood as soon as possible. They would be very lucky if it were not for the arrival of the eldest prince Lu Manxi at the critical moment. Judging from Lu Yuanxi's attitude, even Uncle Wang would not give him any face. Everyone has the possibility of being buried here. Fighting against these murderous warriors is no different from seeking death. It would be great to leave early. The army retreated, but it looked like they were fleeing in confusion.
Under the auspices of Lu Manxi, he ordered people to clean the square and held a feast here to reward the soldiers who had returned from victory.
Most of the soldiers didn't know the significance of today's incident. I don’t even know what Lu Lu did during the beast crisis in the Eastern Region. When he saw the eldest prince, he scolded Yuan Yufeng and shunned Yuan Yufeng and his party.
I have a very good impression of this eldest prince in my heart, especially since this eldest prince always has a smile on his face, a bright smile. Moreover, Lu Manxi also talked and laughed with everyone, regardless of their superiority or inferiority. Almost all the soldiers felt that the eldest prince was just like Lu Yuanxi, polite, virtuous and approachable.
But insiders, powerful people, all saw the differences between the two brothers. Lu Yuanxi also always smiled, but he was different from Lu Manxi. Lu Yuanxi's smile makes people feel cordial and sincere. Although he sometimes resorts to Machiavellian tactics, he never does things in a way that hurts everyone. And the road is far away and the mind is broad. Especially when it comes to dealing with military matters, his heart can be said to be as broad as the ocean. He gave up the entire Eastern Region to Wu Zhan in order to make Wu Zhan believe in him and believe that his Lu family was not the executioner who killed Zhan's family.
Not everyone can do this. You know, the Eastern Region is one-fifth of the entire empire. Moreover, the Eastern Region is also the military base of the empire, and it is the lifeblood of the empire's continuation. He said he would give it to Wu Zhan.
You know, Wu Zhan is the successor to the Wu family, which controlled more than 90% of the empire's military power twenty years ago. Although the Wu family no longer exists, it is hard to count what kind of foundation the savings of seven generations will have.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Wu Zhan raises his arms and gives a shout. At least half of the military force will be gathered under Wu Zhan. In an instant, you will have the capital to challenge the entire empire.
How could a shrewd person like Lu Yuanxi not know the stakes involved? But he gave up the Eastern Territory to Wu Zhan, just to win Wu Zhan's revenge, and to give him time to use his own strength to clear the Wu family's innocence and the Lu family's innocence. My heart is so big that the ocean cannot compare with it.
The image of Lu Yuanxi is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so he has a very high status and high prestige in the hearts of the Eastern Territory Army. The lawless guy Li Tian obeyed Lu Yuanxi's advice, which is a good example.
On the other hand, Lu Manxi is as amiable as Lu Yuanxi. But it always gives people a strange, elusive taste. There seemed to be an evil color flickering in his handsome eyes.
All the events today were excused by him with not very clever reasons. This way of doing things is not on the same level as Lu Yuanxi. Although the road is far away, he is good at tactics, but he is also open and aboveboard.
If people can think carefully about the reasons given by Lu Manxi, it will not be difficult to find their clumsiness. It is also easy to find that today's strange events are most likely a direct product of the fight between the two brothers. There were many fights in the imperial family, and since ancient times, the royal family has had no family ties. When I saw him today, it turned out to be true.
There was a big banquet, and the soldiers rarely had the pleasure of drinking from large bowls and eating meat with large mouthfuls of meat during battle. Now you can eat and drink to your heart's content. For a while, cups of dendrobium are mixed with each other, and heroic shouts come one after another.
But Lu Manxi was toasting everywhere, expressing his respect for these heroes who shed their lives and blood. Everyone respects and loves this eldest prince even more. Noble status, but approachable. The two brothers of the Lu family are both respected figures. This is everyone's consensus.
After walking around, Lu Manxi walked up to Wu Zhan.
Holding the wine glass in his hand, he looked at the black-faced man in front of him. The tiny expression on his face calmed down.
"Xiao Zhan, you have changed so much since you were a child. You are not the same person at all. But I believe that you are Wu Zhan. That stubborn little guy. Do you still remember me?"
Wu Zhan stood up and looked at the bald man in front of him.
"Brother, aren't you different from when you were a child? When you were a child, you were very careful about your hair. But now you are bald. People will always change, right?"
There is a profound meaning in Wu Zhan's words. It is not only the appearance of a person that will change, but also the heart of the person. This eldest brother was so outstanding when he was a child. Extremely chic, especially with her thick dark hair. He was always smiling, but now he was bald. Although he was still smiling, he gave people a strange feeling.
This is also the main reason why Wu Zhan knew that this person was his eldest brother when he was a child, but did not take the initiative to talk. Lu Manxi now feels like he is no longer the same person as he was before.
"Yes, people are the most changeable. But some things will never change, should not be changed, and cannot be changed." Lu Manxi seemed to be thinking, or mumbling to himself. .
The two people were so mysterious that the people around them were puzzled. The conversation between them must have a meaning, but no one knows it. Maybe only they themselves know what the other person is saying? Maybe they don't even know.
Lu Manyi didn't say much to Wu Zhan and came to Xunfan. He sat next to Xunfan.
"Xunfan, right? You are a legend. I have always been aware of your name. I am lucky to see you today." He resumed his smiling expression.
Xunfan also felt mysterious about this eldest prince. He seems very kind, but he feels hypocritical. So she didn't answer his words and just smiled at him.
Lu Manxi didn't care about Xunfan's indifference, but still said with a smile: "You killed Shen Yu with one sword, without any hesitation. You fought against everyone, and you were decisive and powerful. Especially when you fought Qian Xunyu and solved the empire. Thank you very much for the first contribution. Come on, let me toast you!"
Xunfan was shocked by Lu Manxi's words. He should have been there when he killed Shen Yu, but with such a strong sense of perception, he failed to notice it. This road is not easy. Let go of your own perception, but you can't sense his specific level of strength.
This shocked Xunfan. When facing anyone, Xunfan could clearly perceive the other person's state, but he could not detect Lu Manxi's strength. Could it be that Lu Manxi has advanced to the divine realm?
Xunfan was thinking about something and didn't answer for a while.
Lu Manxi didn't show any displeasure, "Sir, I respect you." He toasted again.
Xunfan was awakened and quickly toasted in return. The two of them drank their glasses full of wine, and Lu Manxi also went somewhere else. Xunfan looked at Lu Manxi's back and found it hard to calm down.
"What kind of state is this Lu Manxi in?" When he couldn't get the answer, he couldn't help feeling afraid of this person. “This person is extremely extraordinary.
Lu Manxi was chatting and laughing and mingling with everyone. This is very similar to Lu Yuanxi, both have strong communication skills.
Lu Manxi's behavior attracted everyone's attention, and he seemed to do it intentionally. Everywhere they go, they are chatting and asking for help. It seems like he is deliberately trying to win everyone's favor.
But the well-known generals under Lu Yuanxi were mediocre. This person can't help but look weird, his actions are also elusive, and his whole body is weird.
And what puzzles everyone the most is. Lu Yuanxi seems not to be on good terms with this eldest brother. During this period, Lu Manxi always wanted to find some topics to talk to Lu Yuanxi, but Lu Yuanxi always gave reasons to avoid them. It seems that he is deliberately trying to establish a relationship with this big brother.
But Lu Manxi didn't seem to care about his brother's cold reception. There was never any displeasure on his face. No matter how Lu Yuanxi treated him, he always wanted to get close to Lu Yuanxi.
Blood brothers, but they have such a strange relationship.
Everyone can't help but speculate. The royal family is the place where the struggle for power is fiercest. Since ancient times, emperors have had no family ties. Which prince doesn't want to ascend the throne, which is the highest position in the world. Who can be unmoved.
But look at Lu Yuanxi's approach to Wu Zhan. Lu Yuanxi dared to give up half of the country, so he probably wouldn't care too much about his position as emperor.
And Lu Manxi deliberately got close to his little brother, and it didn't seem like they were competing for the throne. But the relationship between them was at odds. Everyone could see that Lu Yuanxi was not very willing to get close to this eldest brother.
Weird brotherly relationship.
