Han Chuo sighed: "But, Princess Lan was imprisoned by His Majesty because she wavered in the military's morale and opposed the Southern Expedition. Without His Majesty's edict of pardon, who would dare to let her out? Besides, she was only responsible before. He is involved in intelligence matters and does not hold any important military or political positions. Even if he is released, how can he be able to negotiate peace matters on his behalf?"
Han Fan said with a smile: "We don't need to worry about this. Your Majesty's whereabouts are unknown now, and people in the city are panicking. Let's wait and see for one more day. If Your Majesty has not come back, we will ask Empress Dowager Duan to temporarily appoint a new regent, Dayan. It's not like this happened in the past. The late Emperor Murong De also temporarily led his troops to stand on their own after the Emperor of Later Yan, Murong Bao, lost news. Afterwards, after Murong Bao fled to Liaodong, he also conferred the title of King of Nan Yan on the late Emperor Murong De, and Governor Qing. , the military of Ji and other states, and the former and later Emperor Murong Chui of Yan also once established himself in Guandong as the King of Wu. When the country is in danger, extraordinary things must be done. It is impossible for a group of dragons to be without a leader. "
Han Chuo gritted his teeth: "But the military power is in the hands of He Lanmin, and even our own family members have been expelled. How can we support the Murong clan? Empress Dowager Duan herself is under house arrest in the palace, and has always been left to those who The Su Guards are guarding the city. Now the Su Guards are driving people throughout the city. They have obviously been controlled by He Lanmin. We are just afraid that if these suggestions are mentioned, He Lanmin will be charged with rebellion!"
Han Fan sneered: "It is precisely because the person holding the token now is He Lanmin that we have a chance, do you understand?"
Feng He blurted out: "What does this mean?"
Han Fan said sternly: "Because the generals of the Murong clan cannot really be convinced by He Lanmin. Many of the old Xianbei generals in the city are veterans who followed the late emperor to conquer the world, or their children and grandchildren. These people are very interested in Murong." Chao was not convinced, let alone others. Otherwise, there would not have been so many rebellions against Murong Chao when he came to power. Therefore, since Murong Chao came to the throne, he has alienated these old generals and ministers, and instead reused Gongsun Wu. Lou, of course, and that mysterious black robe.”
"And this He Lanmin is not even as qualified as Gongsun Wulou. At any rate, Gongsun Wulou and Murong Chao shared adversity together when they were young. They also helped him put down rebellions and maintain stability, and they have made some contributions. However, He Lanmin is just a black-robed man. A disciple who stayed in the Northern Wei Dynasty and prepared to cause rebellion failed, and his son and party members were all killed. Only she was left to escape. It was we who protected her, and we did not hesitate to further offend the Northern Wei Dynasty. Such a person can only He is just a chess piece of Black Robe. It is impossible to convince everyone just by taking a token!"
Gao Gai said with a smile: "That's true. I think it's impossible for those Xianbei soldiers to really obey this woman. Now they just rely on the Feitianma order to act. The reason why these Xianbei people are willing to carry out the order to expel the Han people is He has always been envious of our property and wanted to take this opportunity to grab it again."
Han Fan nodded: "That's right, but if we say that we have a strong defense or decide to defend in battle, that's another matter. If Your Majesty does not return, we will have to temporarily establish a new regent in order to save the country. The late emperor has no children, so His Majesty This nephew was able to ascend the throne, which means that no matter how distant the Murong clan is, it will cause more chaos. Now in this city, there is only one person in the Murong clan who can convince everyone..."
Feng He blurted out: "It's Princess Lan, but, she is a woman after all, and..."
Han Fan said solemnly: "It's just because she is a woman that this is easy to handle. Because as a woman, even if she is temporarily regent, she has room. Even if Murong Chao comes back, she can abdicate at any time and give up power. But if she is a man, I am afraid that she will not stop fighting. . Moreover, she and Liu Yu are husband and wife, which is an unchangeable fact. If she is asked to order peace talks, I am afraid that Liu Yu will also give him face. The most important thing is..."
At this point, Han Fan curled up his lips: "We can ask her to negotiate peace in person at that time. Maybe we can nominally surrender to Liu Yu and let her follow Liu Yu back to the army in the name of a hostage. They are a couple, so they can't go back. It’s nothing. We, Dayan, didn’t suffer any losses, but we were able to overcome this biggest crisis. Let’s take a long-term view on the following matters. If Murong Lan can settle this matter, then Murong Chao’s prestige will be ruined, and the black robe will be even worse. It is impossible to stay in Dayan. We, the Han people, will have an opportunity to control the power here in the future!"
Han Chuo frowned: "It's not that easy. What if Liu Yu insists on not retreating and even asks Nan Yan to disband the army or leave an army to guard Guanggu?"
Han Fan said calmly: "Then it depends on how Princess Lan talks. He Lanmin is a smart person and will not do things to perfection. Although Heipao is her master, at this time, she will not be stupid enough to put her own Her life was bound to the defeated Hei Pao, not to mention Hei Pao himself's whereabouts were unknown. Rather than die with Hei Pao, she might as well have turned to Murong Lan early and found a new backer for herself. It had been He Lanmin a while ago. Guard Murong Lan, now we all know that they are both disciples of Heipao, but Murong Lan has betrayed Heipao, and He Lanmin, whose family was ruined by Heipao, cannot be very loyal to Heipao. "
Gao Gai said with a smile: "Then Prime Minister Han wants us to find He Lanmin and ask her to release Murong Lan because of our interests?"
Han Fan nodded: "I will handle this matter personally. I will not mention the expulsion of the Han people in the city. I only said that the city needs someone to take charge now. Since there is no leader, the person holding the Flying Horse Order will take charge of the overall situation and arrange the city defense." Let’s see if she dares to take up this burden herself.”
Feng He laughed: "This woman doesn't understand military affairs at all. It's okay to ask her to provide intelligence. If she prepares the army for war, she will probably run away first."
Han Fan nodded with satisfaction: "This Nanyan is the Nanyan of the Murong clan. The Helan tribe is just protecting them. If those Xianbei generals feel that the Helan clan wants to take advantage of the chaos, it will be like the empress dowager." Just like Yan's Nalan Khan, I'm afraid that their Helan clan will be wiped out like Lan Khan. It's for her own good that the burden of Yan is given to Murong Lan. Even if the black robe comes back, there's nothing he can say What not? After all, he is the big sinner who caused the war and lost the war. Murong Lan took charge of the country when Murong Chao was away, and no one can object. As long as Murong Lan is in power, he will definitely make peace with Liu Yu. We Han people will be reused and we can act according to our own will."
