Fu Jian looked at the surprised Murong Lan and smiled slightly: "I know that in my life, I killed my brother to seize the throne, destroyed the country, prostituted my daughter, and killed my nephew. If you look at it by ordinary people's standards, this is a serious crime." You are a great evil person. Does it make you feel contemptuous to say that you can convince others with virtue?"
Murong Lan shook her head: "No, because the King of Heaven governs the country with benevolence and righteousness, and treats everyone equally regardless of race in the country. Even the people of his own tribe have some opinions. Everyone in Daqin calls you the Holy King. Therefore, it is said that you can conquer the world with virtue." There’s no problem with that, people.”
Fu Jian sighed softly: "But I am worthy of the world, but I am sorry for you Murong. I took your country, killed your relatives, raped your daughter, and killed your eldest son. When I think of these, I can't sleep at night. I often I woke up from a nightmare.”
Murong Lan said coldly: "As long as the King of Heaven is ruthless and kills me, Murong Yi, there is no need to wake up."
Fu Jian shook his head: "No, you didn't act against me, so I can't do such a thing. Besides, killing important ministers for no reason will alienate all the ministers, and the country will be ruined. The grudges I have had with you, the Murong clan of Yan State, for so many years , Gu is the one who made more mistakes. I feel guilty for you, and it’s not too late to repay you, so how could you do it?”
Murong Lan nodded: "Why did the king tell this to my concubine? If you don't trust our Murong family, then what's the point of me proving my innocence like this?"
Fu Jian sighed: "Because this is the only way that I can really talk to you Murong family members about a few words from my heart. I probably can no longer talk openly about these words to your eldest brother. I can only talk to you." , I hope that when you have the opportunity, you can tell your elder brother Gu's true thoughts."
Murong Lan looked at Fu Jian and said calmly: "My concubine should convey the words of the King of Heaven to you. Just say it."
Fu Jian's eyes flashed coldly and he said: "I know that you have been undercover in the Jin Dynasty for several years, and it is not just as simple as inquiring about military intelligence. You, the Murong family, are also trying to connect with the Xie family of the Eastern Jin Dynasty in order to plot against our great Qin, right? .”
Murong Lan smiled slightly: "What the King of Heaven thinks is your business. You won't believe anything I say."
Fu Jian shook his head: "Gu has no evidence, but Gu has been sitting in this position for so many years. It is self-evident what you are going to do if you conceal your identity and infiltrate the Eastern Jin Dynasty. The reason why Gu has not been exposed is because the war is inevitable , no matter whether you do these things or not, you can't change it, so I am happy to see the results."
Murong Lan sighed: "Since everything is under your control, what else do you want to say to me? If you think that our Murong family has been plotting to seize your country, then get rid of us. , isn’t this what Wang Meng and Duke Yang Ping have been admonishing you for?”
Fu Jian smiled slightly: "Wang Meng and the others had their own considerations. They only saw the internal contradictions in Da Qin and the conflicts between the various ethnic groups hidden under the surface, but they did not see that the Hu people were afraid of power and were not moral. They could only give way to After they saw the military might of the Qin Dynasty, they obeyed obediently and did not dare to have any objections. Therefore, they listened to half of their words and discarded the other half. They agreed with their judgment on the domestic situation and the Murong family, but they did not agree with the solution. .”
A trace of surprise flashed in Murong Lan's eyes: "Since you agree with their judgment and think our family is a traitor, why not get rid of them?"
Fu Jian sighed: "You didn't act against me. If I kill you rashly, it's hard to win over the people of the world. It's not feasible to kill one person and deny the world's talents the opportunity to join. Murong Lan, your elder brother understands this truth, and you are now Still do not know."
Murong Lan nodded: "So Wang Meng must use the golden sword to frame me and force my eldest brother to rebel. Only then can he be justified, but why do you want to stop him?"
Fu Jian laughed: "Relying on this kind of frame-up method to kill an entire clan, no matter what the motive is, it is not the way of a sage to convince people with virtue. I will not use it. Unless you are truly rebelling, I will not be able to use it." He will be killed outright, otherwise, his actions will not be revealed, and he will not be able to practice the way of killing his heart."
Murong Lan looked at Fu Jian and shook her head: "King of Heaven, please forgive me for speaking frankly, you are too confident. One day, this will harm you."
Fu Jian shook his head: "Then let Gu wait for this day. At least Gu has been sitting in the world for more than twenty years, convincing people with virtue and treating the people with heart. As you said, everyone in the world regards Gu as a wise king. Even if someone has the ambition to rebel, no one will follow. This is the confidence of Gu Zi. The great world and the great rivers and mountains cannot be captured by some conspiracy and trickery."
Murong Lan sighed: "So, is this what the King of Heaven wants you to give to your eldest brother? I will convey it to him word for word."
Fu Jian smiled and waved his hand: "No, listen to what I have to say. What I just said is only half of what I said. I am not afraid of conspiracies and tricks. Whether it is your eldest brother or others, if they want to seduce external forces and launch a rebellion, they will It’s just self-destruction. However, apart from that, Gu also has half of what he has to say, that is, for those who sincerely help Gu bring peace to the world, Gu will definitely give him what he deserves."
Murong Lan frowned slightly: "What do you mean by this?"
Fu Jian put away his smile and said sternly: "Over the years, Gu has owed you a lot to your eldest brother, and you, the Murong clan, so when I destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty this time and unify the world, I will restore your Yan Kingdom."
Murong Lan opened her eyes wide: "What did you say? Restore our Yan Kingdom? King Tian, are you kidding me?"
Fu Jian shook his head: "Of course I'm not joking, you have no joke. This time after Gu destroyed Jin, the world was unified, and there was no enemy. Murong Chui contributed the most and made the most contribution in the process of Gu pacifying the world. He was named King of Yan." , and it should be right. Haven’t you Murong family admired Han family etiquette for a long time, and even your surnames were named after Han people’s clothes? That Gu will seal you in the land south of the Yangtze River where the Eastern Jin Dynasty was founded, and split the land and divide the territory. This is worthy of you. Bar."
Murong Lan gritted his teeth: "The King of Heaven is so kind, and the whole Murong clan will burst into tears of gratitude. But if you divide the enfeoffment like this, what will you Di clan do? I'm afraid Yang Pinggong will not be the first to agree!"
Fu Jian said seriously: "Gu is the king, and he is the minister. When Gu appointed Wang Meng as prime minister, the old nobles of Di Ren also disagreed, but Gu still made his own decision. The world belongs to the people of the world, and it is not my surname Fu. Everything is not owned by the Di people. If there is no reward for meritorious service and no punishment for guilty, that is not the way of a king. Even if you live a safe life, it will definitely bring disaster to your descendants."
Murong Lan said in a deep voice: "Aren't you afraid that after our Murong family regains the Yan Kingdom, future generations will become ambitious again and launch a rebellion?"
Fu Jian smiled and said: "The King of Wu of the former Han Dynasty was in the south of the Yangtze River. During the reign of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, the chaos in the Seven Kingdoms was once overwhelming. So what? How can rebellious ministers and traitors conquer the world? As long as we do not lose the hearts of the people and are benevolent and righteous to the people, If you convince people with virtue, who can conquer Gu's kingdom?"
