Murong Lan immediately took over the conversation: "Yes, you have admitted it, right? When the late emperor was here, I, Dayan, negotiated a peace alliance with the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and also signed a non-aggression treaty. All the officers and soldiers in the army, the whole country, The people of Yan all know it, and no one can deny it. And since the peace treaty is established, the two sides are not hostile. As a general, don’t you even know this?"
Yuwen Hailanhu was stunned and opened his mouth wide, but could not speak.
Murong Lan said in a deep voice: "At that time, the late emperor once broke an arrow and swore an oath in front of hundreds of thousands of soldiers. If anyone in our country, Yan, violates this agreement and takes the initiative to go to war with the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he will be a person who breaks his promise and the people of Yan, We can attack together, Yuwen Hailan shouted, you must have heard it at that time."
Yuwen Hailan gritted his teeth: "Yes, the late emperor issued such an order, but at this time, after Liu Yu luckily sued for peace, he immigrated to the north of the Yangtze River on a large scale, stocked up grain and organized the army, and put on a show of He looks like he is going to attack. If he wants to break the contract, he should break the contract first!" Even though he said this, it was obvious that he no longer had any confidence and was not as confident as he was just now.
Murong Lan said calmly: "The peace treaty made by the late Emperor is clear. Whoever takes the initiative to send troops to attack will breach the contract. Liu Yu immigrated to Jiangbei and did not attack our territory of Dayan. Some people use their own judgment to say that others have breached the contract, but it is just Just to find a reason for myself to send troops and break the contract."
Murong Lin said in a deep voice: "Princess Lan, I'm afraid what you said is not complete, right? Liu Yu was able to organize an army to go north so quickly this time, which shows that he was well prepared. Even if we don't send troops, he will definitely provoke an attack." of!"
Murong Lan shook his head: "If he comes to invade, it will be his breach of contract, then we will naturally have the reputation to send troops. But after all, he has not taken the initiative to attack, but we are the first to send troops. Let me ask if Liu Yu is really ready to send troops. Prepare, how can we go deep into the Suyu area and rob thousands of people? The six counties of Jiangbei are the territory of the Eastern Jin Dynasty recognized by the late emperor. They do things on their own territory and do not violate the peace agreement. Probably our Xianbei It has become a habit to attack and rob others, thinking that this is a matter of course, so we can even deny the peace treaty signed by the late emperor with others. But everyone should ask themselves, we Xianbei people have always been the most loyal and keep our word. In this matter , is it really Jin who broke the treaty first?"
Yuwen Hailan said with hatred: "Anyway, things are already like this. These people are captured by us, they are prisoners. According to our Xianbei traditional rules, whichever tribe we fight with, we must kill that tribe first." The captives exchanged their fresh meat for the blessing of their ancestors. Princess Lan, I know Liu Yu is your husband, and it is understandable that you are caught in the middle and say something to the Jin State, but today, do not challenge us Xianbei people. Out of anger, we will kill these Han people!"
Murong Lan was neither humble nor arrogant, but she took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Yuwen Hailanhu, in your opinion, are these people in the ditch your enemies or one of your own?"
Yuwen Hailanhu said without hesitation: "They are Han people, so of course they are enemies!"
Murong Lan sneered and said, "Really? If the Han people are the enemy, then are the high-ranking officials in the city such as the Prime Minister of Han, Gao Shangshu, and Feng Shangshu the enemies?"
The corner of Yuwen Hailanhu's mouth twitched: "Of course, this is not the case. Although they are Han people, they are my people of Dayan and have served Dayan for many years, so..."
Murong Lan said solemnly: "Very good, since although they are Han people, our people of Dayan are our own people, not our enemies. So what is the difference between these Han musicians in the ditch? Although they were kidnapped, they are not enemies. Your Majesty has long issued a decree for them to learn rituals and music in Taixue, and then join the royal band to play for Dayan. General Yuwen, I want to ask you, will your Majesty allow Dayan's enemies to enter the band to perform sacrifices? Ancestor of Dayan?"
Cold sweat broke out on Yuwen Hailan's head, and his mouth opened and closed, but no words came out.
Murong Lan's beautiful eyes glanced at the Xianbei people who were whispering and nodding secretly, and said: "People, people, our Dayan is not the Dayan of the Murong family, but tens of thousands of tribes and tribes. Tribesmen, Dayan of the Han people in each village, many of you have ancestors who were enemies of my Murong family. For example, the Yuwen tribe of General Yuwen was once the mortal enemy of the Murong family when they were in Liaodong, but now we are also a family. , people of the same country are as close as brothers. If we only have hatred and killing in our minds, how could we be here today? If we only rely on fighting and killing, in the end we will either kill no other tribes, or we will be killed by others until the country is exterminated. , only the cruel Jiehu would do this kind of thing, but we, the Murong clan, would never do it!"
There was a burst of cheers from the crowd. Murong Lan continued: "These Han people in the ditch are not soldiers, they are just ordinary people like you. Because they were born in this troubled times, they unfortunately became prisoners and were taken away to other places to work as cattle and horses. They are already very pitiful. , the war between the two countries was never caused by these common people, but the emperor's ambition and desire for power. Today you can kill them all in this ditch. If the war in Yan goes unfavorably in the future, you will fall into the hands of the Jin army. , will there be a good ending? If you want revenge, you should find those enemy soldiers on the battlefield. How can you be a hero by spreading your anger on innocent people? "
Yuwen Hailan shouted loudly: "If we don't kill the enemy's prisoners, our ancestors will be angry and won't protect us!"
Murong Lan said coldly: "I have said before, when they were enrolled in the Imperial Academy to study rituals and music, they became the people of Dayan and were no longer enemies. What's more, they were not enemies in the first place, but just people of neighboring countries. That's it, the way of heaven is clear, and retribution is not good. I, Murong, took control of the Central Plains not only by strong soldiers and horses, but also by the kindness and righteousness accumulated by sheltering tens of millions of Han people in the troubled times of the late Jin Dynasty. Later, after entering the Central Plains, we killed too many people. , and other kings seized the throne, and their talents gradually declined, leading to the destruction of the country and the family. If the former emperor had not protected the country and the people after entering Qilu, and showed benevolence and righteousness, how could there have been peace in these years? "
"Yuwen Hailanhu, if you really want to kill the enemy and sacrifice the flag, then please lead your tribe into the city now, then register to join the army, follow me to attack personally, capture some prisoners of the Jin army's sentries, come back and kill them, That’s what you really have to do!”
Han Fan's voice sounded from the direction of the city gate: "That's so good, Princess Lan, you are really a hero among women, you are not inferior to men, I only have one big word of admiration for you!"
