Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3780 The aftermath is not easy
He Lanyan's face was ashen and defeated, he hesitated to speak, his displeasure finally turned into a long sigh.

The situation is pressing, what can he do?If he dared to openly oppose Changsun Wuji's decision at this time, the Helan family would inevitably be suppressed by the rest of the Guanlong clan. Maybe all the scapegoats would fall on the Helan family's head, and the whole family would not be able to afford it... …

It's just unavoidable resentment in my heart.

You were the one who called for the uprising at the beginning, and you made a big cake for the big guys, saying that the great achievements of the future are all in the present, but after the uprising, you suffered heavy losses. The above interests are on the verge of extinction.

Then you want to shirk your responsibility and put us, the weak clans who depend on you, on top to bear the wrath of the Eastern Palace?

……

In fact, although Changsun Wuji had already planned to distribute as much as possible to the weak among the Guanlongmen Clan no matter how much loss he suffered, in order to preserve his own strength as much as possible, but when the current situation is critical, he still has to rely on These weak clans worked together to tide over the difficulties, and did not dare to go too far.

If He Lanyan had a tough attitude and was determined not to succumb to Changsun Wuji, then Changsun Wuji would probably still want to appease him and make a promise.

But He Lanyan's full of resentment and anger turned into a long sigh, Changsun Wuji naturally felt at ease...

Yuwen Shiji nodded and said: "Don't worry about the auxiliary machine. As soon as the sun breaks, I will go to the Neizhong Gate to see the East Palace and finalize this matter as soon as possible. After all, even though the East Palace has the upper hand at this time, Li Ji on the Tongguan side is still a serious threat. The East Palace may not dare to guarantee that Li Ji will completely fall over, the survival of the reserve and the life and death of the East Palace are at stake, no one dares to be careless."

Li Ji's garrison at Tongguan is like a knife hanging above Chang'an. Not only Guan Long is afraid of his wife like a tiger, but the East Palace is also like a stick in his throat. He is afraid that Li Ji will enter the pass regardless of his troops and "replace him with a big man"...

In the face of Guan Long's great concessions, Donggong can basically agree to finalize the peace talks, and then remove Li Ji's threat.

Unless Li Ji really dared to risk the displeasure of the world, raise troops to cause chaos, and seek to usurp the throne...

Changsun Wuji nodded, then looked at Linghu Defen: "And this is exactly what I want to ask Brother Defen."

Linghu Defen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "If there is a place where Brother Yu can serve, the auxiliary machine can just order. Although we sometimes have disagreements and even have occasional disputes, but now that Guanlong is facing a crisis, no one can be alone, and we should be sincere. Unity, regardless of each other."

Changsun Wuji nodded with relief on his face, but complained wildly in his heart: Mother!If you had known the importance of solidarity and solidarity, and understood that everyone has no distinction between each other, how could you have come to this situation recently?

Naturally, the longest can't say that, otherwise it will only push the Guanlong alliance, which is already full of holes, to collapse, and said gently: "Please go to Tongguan to meet Li Ji, and implore him to let go of Tongguan pass, and allow the private army of the gates in the pass to withdraw Tongguan, each return to their hometown. Otherwise, if the war resumes, those private troops will no longer be controlled by Guanlong, and they will inevitably poison Guanzhong, causing people to die, and the empire will also be severely damaged and its foundations will be damaged. They are all from the state capitals inside and outside the pass The youth of the county!"

Young and strong represent productivity, food and everything.

Of course, what Changsun Wuji was worried about was not whether the lives would be ruined or whether the foundation of the empire would be damaged. Otherwise, he would not have raised his troops for the self-interest of the family and caused chaos in Guanzhong and killed tens of thousands of soldiers.

What he cares about is the attitude of the outsiders.

Even if Guan Long is defeated this time, the background is still there, and the crown prince can't plow the court and sweep the caves and kill them all with cruel methods. The sky is in the sky when Li Chengqian is in power, rest and recuperate, and when the dynasty changes, he will take advantage of the situation to rise .

For decades, the dormancy of two generations is nothing to a family with a long history. The tide goes up and down, the moon is full and the moon is short, and there has never been a long-lasting existence in the world. The aristocratic family fought bloody battles but failed to achieve the expected results, so they hibernated and waited for the future.

In the future, when the new emperor ascends the throne, it is very likely that he will not care about the blow Li Chengqian received at the hands of the Guanlongmen clan today.

But those outside the door valve may not be.

This time the sect outside the pass sent private troops into the pass through the coercion and temptation of Changsun Wuji. Many people may not be willing to do so, but due to the situation, they have to obey Changsun Wuji.If they win in the end, that's all right, everyone will share the benefits, and the shortest way to eat people is, and if they get the benefits, they won't be dragging Changsun Wuji to coerce and lure them.But now that they are defeated, all the efforts of the clans outside the pass have been in vain, and Li Chengqian will hold them in his heart if there is no benefit in the slightest. feud.

When the new emperor ascends the throne, the grievances of the former emperor may not be willing to pay attention to them; but the inheritance of the clan, the enemies of the past, can be remembered from generation to generation. Whenever there is a chance for revenge, he will never let it go easily...

It is conceivable that when Li Chengqian becomes emperor, although he will not kill all the Guanlongmen faction, it is inevitable to suppress them with all his strength.At that time, it will be very difficult for Guan Long to protect himself, but he will have to face countless outsiders who are waiting for an opportunity to retaliate and make trouble. It will be a devastating blow.

So now we must try our best to show our kindness to the outsiders. Although it is impossible to dissipate their grievances, at least they should not let go of their mortal enemies...

Linghu Defen looked solemn and nodded deeply.

The reason why he has been in the core of Guanlong is not because he is so concerned about this mutiny, but just as a symbol of the Linghu family.But at this moment, he understood Changsun Wuji's concerns and took it very seriously, so he decided to go all out and dare not slack off in the slightest.

Guan Long is united in spirit, when someone takes revenge, no matter if you are the eldest grandson's family or Linghu's family, you will be able to do everything with one stick...

If you can beg Li Ji to let go of a way out now and allow these private soldiers to return to their original places, you can still leave a little bit of love with the powerful people in various places. After all, you have joined hands for a grand goal and went through life and death. Connecting, taking care of each other, and jointly resisting the suppression of the East Palace, Guan Long may not have no chance of making a comeback.

After all, compared to land, prestige, and wealth, private armies are the foundation of a family's inheritance for generations.

Without a private army in hand, even a magistrate of a county can destroy a family that has been passed on for hundreds of generations. The life and death of a family are all decided by the king and the court. It is no different to want to have privileges beyond the law Yu idiots talk about dreams.

And without those privileges, how can the clan pass it on from generation to generation?

I'm afraid that if he is rich for only three generations, he will disappear from everyone...

Thinking of this, Linghu Defen was terrified—although everyone in the world believed that peace talks were the only way to go, the crown prince and Fang Jun repeatedly contradicted the peace talks, intending to fight to the death and vow not to compromise. The powerful private army dragged in Guanzhong, even if they paid a huge price, they must be completely wiped out, completely clearing away the biggest stumbling block on the road to the centralization of imperial power?
As soon as this idea came up, a bone-chilling chill rose from the tailbone and spread across the whole body in an instant, making him stiff as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

But then he felt something was wrong, how dare the prince use his own life and death as a bait to use the Guanlongmen Clan to mobilize the private army of the world's powerful clans into Guanzhong?It should be known that since the beginning of the Guanlong incident, the Tai Chi Palace had been infinitely close to being captured several times, and even if one of them was successful, the prince had already been deposed and imprisoned, and even turned into a corpse...

No matter how crazy the prince is, how dare he feed the tiger with his body?

It would be fine if His Majesty Li Er was in those days. After all, that one had the courage to swallow mountains and rivers, and the power to open up the world. As for Li Chengqian... he had neither such foresight nor such magnanimity.

So, today's situation is purely a coincidence?
……

When everything was properly distributed and everyone dispersed, Changsun Wuji called his most loyal old servant in front of him, took out his private seal from under the pillow, handed it to the old servant, and said in a low voice: "You leave immediately, Go to Tongguan in disguise, don't let anyone know, let alone alarm anyone, set off alone, hold my private seal to meet Zhu Suiliang in secret..."

What Linghu Defen can think of and doubt, how can he not think of it and not doubt it?

So he sent his loyal old servant to Tongguan to meet with Zhu Suiliang, and he wanted to confirm that there was no problem with the most critical link.

otherwise……

Just thinking about it makes him shiver violently, and a deep fear hits his whole body.
