Murong Lan said expressionlessly: "Brother Huang should be worried about the country of Dayan, not whether your nephew or adopted son can convince the public."
Murong Beide's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he sighed: "You are the only one who dares to talk to me like this now."
Murong Lan sighed softly: "I am only interested in protecting the country of my Murong family, Dayan, so there is nothing I dare not say with you. Little brother, you have gone too far this time, Murong Zhen Murong They are all old troops who have been with you for many years, and you have forced them all to rebel, why don’t you think about who will defend the country in the future?"
Murong Beide gritted his teeth: "Are you really a little brother who is too confused and doesn't know right from wrong? It's because they have followed me for many years, have made great achievements in battle, and hold heavy troops to guard one side, that's why they have become the most powerful warlord in the feudal town. I am alive When they were staring at my place after my death, how could Ah Chao restrain them after my death? Rather than waiting until I die to recreate the tragedy that happened after my brother's death, why not be a villain now and clear up all these things!"
Murong Lan said sadly: "Is A Chao really worthy of your support? Do you really think he is as filial and respectful as he is in front of you?"
Murong Beide shook his head: "How could I not know what he and his friends did? But, he is my only nephew. All my sons are dead, and there is no one around me to rely on except you. . If you are a man, then why should I place my hope on him?"
Murong Lan gritted his teeth: "Since you also know that Ah Chao is not trustworthy, it is better to submit to the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Liu Yu will protect our Murong clan and the lives of my Xianbei clan. I have mentioned this to you before."
Murong Beide raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Alan, don't say any more. You and I can never reach a consensus on this point. God bless my Murong family lineage so that our imperial bloodline will not be cut off. Let me Murong Being virtuous can save Dayan. This responsibility lies on my shoulders, and I will never leave it to others. Liu Yu may be nice to you, but he is the mortal enemy of our Murong family. How can I save the country and the country? The lives of thousands of people are entrusted to his hands?!"
Murong Lan shook his head: "Now that Asheng has successfully reestablished his country in his hometown, the Murong family can be regarded as having successors. You don't need to be responsible for the whole family. After all, he is the son of the legitimate emperor Murong Bao. His clan That's right, when we brought tens of thousands of clansmen south, it was to save their lives, not to get the throne. Little brother, was what you told me back then a lie?"
The muscles on Murong Beide's face twitched: "At this moment, at that moment, Alan, do you know why I have to add the word "bei" to my name? It's because I imagine that like Liu Bei, although he is not a direct heir, he can still be a clan member. Reviving Dayan and reborn from adversity will live up to the great care that big brother gave to you and me back then."
Murong Lan sighed: "You have already done this, little brother. Over the years, you have established Nanyan, repelled the pursuit of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and settled down in this Qilu land. It can be said that hundreds of thousands of Murong families have The Xianbei people are all alive because of you. But now, the situation has changed. The Northern Wei Dynasty has established a foothold in Hebei, which may not be defeated by our strength. The situation in the Eastern Jin Dynasty has changed dramatically. Liu Yu defeated Huan Xuan. In the future, we will What we are facing will be an unprecedentedly powerful enemy. To protect one person’s imperial title, we have to risk the lives of hundreds of thousands of clan members. Is this really good?”
Murong Beide said sternly: "No matter how good Liu Yu is, he is not one of our clansmen. We, the Murong clan, have fought for hundreds of years and finally gained independence. We are not going to surrender to others again. Alan, you are Liu Yu's Wife, but you are the princess of my Dayan, so you don’t think about our Murong family, are you so anxious to take our Dayan as your dowry?"
Murong Lan shook her head: "Brother, how can you look at me like this? When you were in power, I tried my best to help you, even leaving my husband and abandoning my daughter. Isn't it because I haven't forgotten that I am As a member of the Murong clan, do you have the blood of your ancestors flowing in your body?"
Murong Beide's expression softened slightly: "Then why are you mentioning this matter again and again? Could it be that Ah Chao can't afford the future of Dayan? With you as my aunt, as long as you are willing to come forward, Liu Yu will at least They won't attack us either. What you should be thinking about is how to find a way to get Liu Yu to help us drive out the Northern Wei Dynasty and fight back to Hebei. When the time comes, you will return the land of Qilu to the Jin Dynasty as a thank you. No. But if our whole clan wants to surrender to him and become his vassal, then we can’t even think about it!”
Murong Lan gritted her teeth: "I said, if you were in charge, I would do this, but you are already over seventy years old and your body is like this. Do you really want Nan Yan to do it?" Is your future bet on Ah Chao? Are he and the people around him worthy of your support? How did we see Ah Bao destroy Dayan's empire back then, do you want to do it again? "
Murong Beide gritted his teeth tightly: "No, Ah Chao is not Murong Bao. He is not that kind of idiot, including Gongsun Wulou whom you despise. I have also tested him. This man is very talented. It can be said that he is He is full of knowledge and understands military matters, I don’t know why you hate him so much!”
Murong Lan said coldly: "Because this person has talent but no virtue, he is even more dangerous. He followed Ah Chao to escape. Once he got rich, he did not want to serve the country, but sold his official position and title. Soon, I Many officials and titles below the rank of Shangshulang in Dayan have become clear price tags. We Xianbei people are simple in nature, how can we have so many tricks. Gongsun Wulou's tricks not only ruined the customs of our people, but also ruined the many blood-soaked people. The officers and titles that the desperate soldiers could not win were sold to the Han people for nothing. If they are allowed to struggle like this for a few more years, I am afraid that Nanyan will no longer be the country of my Xianbei clan."
A trace of surprise flashed across Murong Beide's face: "That's not the case. Aren't the Han people he recommended are knowledgeable and talented people? I have also taken the exam on the spot, and they are all very capable."
Murong Lan sighed: "The land of Qilu itself is the hometown of Saint Kong. Most of the Han people here are somewhat literate, especially the scholars. But these people are literate, but they don't want to serve the country, just like the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Those children of aristocratic families only know how to be romantic, occupy land and slaves, and do not repay the country. The more such people there are, the faster the country will collapse. We do not want to learn from the Han people's good deeds, but we must learn from their decadent and degenerate ways. Come on, isn't it putting the cart before the horse? Gongsun Wulou recommends these worms, not to promote virtuous people for the country, but to line their own pockets. The money they spend to buy official positions will be taken back from the people tenfold and a hundredfold. On that day, Xiao I’m afraid, little brother, you have neither useful people nor soldiers to fight with!”
