In the evening, after Shangguan Changgong went out to see him off in person, Yang Chongqing reluctantly got on the carriage home... ··
After burning the incense, Yang Chongqing returned to his house. As soon as he entered the house, the housekeeper Yang Qi whispered:
"Master, he is already here!"
As soon as these words came out, Yang Chongqing's eyes flashed with a strange color, he nodded imperceptibly, and immediately walked towards the study.
After a while, Yang Chongqing walked into the study. When he saw a handsome young man coming back, he bowed to him and said:
"Murong Fan, a common man, has met Commander Yang!"
Yang Chongqing said nothing after hearing this, looked at Murong Fan carefully, and then sat on the main seat in the study.
Seeing that Yang Chongqing didn't answer, Murong Fan didn't take it seriously, and then turned his attention to the box that Yang Chongqing brought back and said with a smile:
"Master Yang, do you think this box contains the seal and ribbon of the Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses?"
"I will change my name to Marshal Yang from now on!" After saying this, Murong Fan pretended to bow to Yang Chongqing again.
Listening to Murong Fan's words, Yang Chongqing closed his eyes, his heart full of complicated emotions.
To be honest, if I hadn't met Murong Fan three days ago and learned the message Murong Lun gave me from his mouth, I would have burst into tears today and fought to the death for Shangguan Changgong. But unfortunately, there is no if in this world... ·························
Although Shangguan Changgong only gave himself the seal and ribbon of the Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses and told him the news today, Murong Lun had brought the news to him three days ago. ,
In addition to telling him that he would be promoted to the Grand Marshal of the World's Armed Forces, Murong Lun also told him that Shangguan Changgong would definitely try his best to be kind to him and use his affection to influence him. Murong Lun guessed all of this today. He thought Here Yang Chongqing's expression became even more complicated.
According to Murong Lun, all this was a plot arranged by Shangguan Hongyuan before his death. Shangguan Hongyuan deliberately let the descendants of the Shangguan family marry the descendants of Tang Peng and Ma Chongyang. Shangguan Hongyuan knew that doing so would definitely make the court He appeared in the hall and used Tang Peng and Ma Chongyang to check and balance his voice.
And he will also feel the pain of not being trusted, as well as uneasiness and helplessness because of these voices, and this is exactly what Shangguan Hongyuan wants.
After completing this step, Shangguan Changgong will find himself and tell his heart to himself, saying that his father Shangguan Hongyuan does not completely trust you, but he completely trusts you, and also gave himself the position of Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses, nominally in charge of Luoyang. All the soldiers and horses of the An court.
The actions of Shangguan father and son have only one purpose!
That is to let Shangguan Changgong show kindness to me, and use this strong sense of contrast to make myself cry and be grateful to Shangguan Changgong!
After closing his eyes and meditating for about a cup of tea, Yang Chongqing slowly opened his eyes, looked at Murong Fan in front of him and said in a deep voice:
"What is Murong Lun's plan..."
Hearing what Yang Chongqing said, Murong Fan did not answer immediately, but asked:
"Master Yang, before I came here today, I specifically asked me to ask you, do you believe what he said now?"
As soon as these words came out, Yang Chongqing fell into thinking again. Murong Fan conveyed a lot of content that day, but there was only one core!
Change source app]
That was because Murong Lun wanted to tell him that Shangguan Hongyuan was dead! Shangguan Changgong is secretly not mourning!
To be honest, before today, Yang Chongqing would never believe Murong Lun's words!
Who is Shangguan Hongyuan?
He was the chief minister of the Zhou Dynasty, a tycoon who held the emperor in power and commanded the princes. How could he die so quietly?
However, Yang Chongqing, who had just returned from Shangguan's house, understood that Murong Lun, the old fox, might have guessed correctly!
If Shangguan Hongyuan was still alive, even if he was lying on the hospital bed so sick that he couldn't move, the Shangguan family would not worry that he had second thoughts!
It is precisely because Shangguan Hongyuan died and the sky of Shangguan family collapsed. The father and son of Shangguan family were worried that Shangguan Hongyuan would have second thoughts after his death, so they deliberately staged such a big drama for themselves to make Shangguan Chang Gong respectful. Be kind to yourself to win your loyalty·····························
Based on Yang Chongqing's understanding of Shangguan's father and son, he knew that this must be Shangguan Hongyuan's plan. Shangguan Changgong, a humble gentleman, would definitely not be able to think of such a plan!
Although he didn't want to admit it, Yang Chongqing had to admit that Shangguan Hongyuan's strategy was very clever. Even though Murong Lun had informed him in advance, when the official said those words respectfully, he handed over the seal and ribbon of the Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses to him. At that moment, his heart was really moved, and he had the urge to die for his bosom friend!
But after that moment, he felt as much disgust as his impulse!
The sincere brotherhood mentioned by Shangguan Changgong has completely turned into use and deception!
Now the Luo'an court is in danger under the fierce offensive of the Fengwu Army. Shangguan Hongyuan, the pinnacle of the Luoan court, has also left, so he has become the last straw for Shangguan Changgong!
Shangguan Changgong wanted to use himself to deal with the Fengwu Army, deal with Ye Mingsheng, and protect his Shangguan family's empire, but he was worried that he would seize his family's empire with his own intentions, so he made so many troubles!
He gave himself a name as the general marshal of the world's soldiers and horses, but in fact the Xuanwu Army was still commanded by Ma Chongyang, and the Hujie Forbidden Army was still commanded by Tang Peng.
As the general of the world's soldiers and horses, he can only mobilize the people of the Shenwu Army. However, under the arrangements of Shangguan Hongyuan in recent years, almost one-third of the generals of the Shenwu Army are either Shangguan or in-laws of the Shangguan family. The last one Two-thirds of them were also from Shangguan Hongyuan Zhaowu Camp and were loyal to the Shangguan family...
Therefore, if I have any second thoughts, I will be caught by Shangguan Changgong and killed directly by Kacha!
Thinking of this, Yang Chongqing's heart could be said to be full of bitterness. He didn't know what he had done wrong to make the Shangguan family guard against him like a thief.
In those years, Shangguan Hongyuan was able to secure the position of chief assistant. At least half of them were caused by his sword and gun. He also saved Shangguan Changgong's life. With all these things, why can't he let himself win the Shangguan family? What about trust?
After thinking for a moment, Yang Chongqing put down his emotions, nodded towards Murong Fan and said in a deep voice:
"Your uncle is indeed as wise as a demon. I believe what he said!"
Murong Fan heard this and said again:
"Master Yang, you are the number one general in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so my uncle also wants me to ask you, if you go out to command the entire army and the court fully supports you, how confident do you think you will be able to resist the Fengwu Army?"
This question was expected by Yang Chongqing. He considered his words and said:
"Although I have never fought against the Fengwu Army, I met Ye Mingsheng ten years ago. I didn't think there was anything special about him at that time. His ability was very mediocre and he was already a top commander. I really don't understand why. He can stir up such a big stir··························"
"However, judging from the current situation, the situation of the Fengwu Army is much better than that of the imperial court. However, the battlefield is unpredictable. The Fengwu Army is not a descendant of heavenly soldiers and generals, and is not that invincible!"
"If the imperial court can fully support me, I dare not say that I can defeat the Fengwu Army, but I am still very confident in rejecting the Fengwu Army outside Guanzhong!" At the end of Yang Chongqing's words, a sense of confidence emerged. born!
After listening to Yang Chongqing's words, Murong Fan thought for a while, then looked at Yang Chongqing and continued.
"Master Yang, can you lend me the four treasures of your study? My uncle has a small gift for you!"
Yang Chongqing also became interested when he heard this. Although he didn't know what kind of tricks Murong Lun was playing, he still nodded towards Murong Fan.
After getting Yang Chongqing's permission, Murong Fan began to write on the white paper. Looking at what Murong Fan wrote, Yang Chongqing became more and more frightened. After half a cup of tea, Murong Fan put down the pen and paper and wrote. The content he wrote was handed to Yang Chongqing.
Looking at the seven names on the white paper, Yang Chongqing's eyes narrowed slightly, but he still pretended not to know and asked:
"Murong Fan, what do you mean?"
Seeing Yang Chongqing pretending not to know, Murong Fan said directly:
"Mr. Yang, you are pretending to be ignorant. If you don't understand what this means, how come you have been pretending to be ill in the past few years... ··············”
As soon as these words came out, Yang Chongqing's eyes flashed coldly and he looked at Murong Fan coldly. Murong Fan was not afraid of this, and the smile on his handsome face did not diminish at all.
After looking at Yang Chongqing for a few seconds, Murong Fan took the lead to look away and bowed:
"It's been a long time since I left the mansion. My family and relatives will be anxious if I don't go back. Murong Fan will say goodbye and leave now!"
After speaking, Murong Fan bowed with all manners and walked out. Looking at Murong Fan's leaving figure, Yang Chongqing couldn't help but shook his head and said to himself:
"With such a powerful young man, it's no wonder that the Murong family has not fallen from grace for hundreds of years!"
"Murong Lun, you old fox, what on earth are you thinking about writing..."
·································
·································
Murong Fan returned to Murong Mansion half an hour later. Because of Murong Lun's instructions, he went directly to Murong Lun's study after returning home.
At this time, Murong Lun was leaning on the Taishi chair and taking a nap. Although he didn't know if Murong Lun was resting, seeing Murong Lun's eyes closed, Murong Fan did not dare to disturb him easily. He stood aside respectfully, waiting for Murong Lun. Ren wakes up on his own.
After a while, Murong Lun was still asleep, but he spoke:
"What did Yang Chongqing say?"
After hearing this, Murong Fan immediately said:
"Yang Chongqing said that he believed what you said and was sure to keep the Fengwu Army out of Guanzhong!"
After hearing what Murong Fan said, Murong Lun slowly opened his eyes, his eyes full of complexity and sadness.
To be honest, although through some clues and judgments about the current actions of the court, Murong Lun came to the conclusion that Shangguan Hongyuan was dead and that Shangguan Changgong was secretly mourning, but to be honest, Murong Lun himself could not be 100% sure about this judgment. affim!
So Murong Lun arranged for his nephew Murong Fan to go to Yang Chongqing secretly and tell Yang Chongqing his judgment. On the one hand, this was to win over Yang Chongqing, and on the other hand, he also wanted Yang Chongqing to be a pawn to test the water for him!
Judging from Yang Chongqing's current reaction, he might have guessed correctly that Shangguan Hongyuan had died of illness. In order to avoid the turmoil in the court and confusion caused by Shangguan Hongyuan's death, Shangguan Changgong chose not to announce the funeral secretly.
When thinking of Shangguan Hongyuan's death, Murong Lun felt relieved, but also felt sad in his heart... ·
Although Shangguan Hongyuan made a lot of preparations for Shangguan Changgong before his death and left a lot of backup plans, no matter how many backup preparations he made, they were not enough to make up for the impact of Shangguan Hongyuan's death!
During this period of time, Murong Lun lived like a year, worried and worried. He was worried that the soldiers of the Forbidden Army, armed with swords and axes, would rush into Murong's house and chop off his head that day. But now that it was confirmed that Shangguan Hongyuan was dead, he was completely relieved!
After relaxing, he was also very sad. From the beginning of his official career, he had witnessed the struggle for power between Shangguan Hongyuan and Lin Shize. In the struggle between the two, he climbed to a high position step by step, leading As the Murong family gradually grows and grows!
And now that Shangguan Hongyuan and Lin Shize have passed away, Murong Lun feels a little bit different about things and people!
After melancholy for a while, Murong Lun also shifted his thoughts to Yang Chongqing. Ever since Shangguan Hongyuan's fate was decided that day, Murong Lun secretly decided in his heart that he must have influence in the army and ensure that Never let yourself be slaughtered like that again!
In order to achieve this goal, Murong Lun also chose a target, and this target was Yang Chongqing!
Others don't know, but Murong Lun knows that although Yang Chongqing was seriously injured that year and was shot in the abdomen by an arrow from the Kipchaks, his life was in danger. Although he was rescued, the root cause of his disease was also left behind. But after these years of treatment, the root cause of his disease has become He is under good control and does not need to relapse as often as he has shown. He needs to recuperate at home...
