Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 955 Murong’s Wrath

After many of the Murong family children left reluctantly, Murong Xin stayed alone with several close brothers and nephews such as Murong Yun and Murong Huang.

Immediately afterwards, Murong Xin opened the letter sent by Chen Zhi, and after a cursory glance, his face changed suddenly, and then it appeared in front of others.

When everyone saw this, their expressions changed instantly. Even Murong Huang, who originally wanted to be a peacemaker and a middleman, couldn't help but frown.

"That's so arrogant!" One of Murong's disciples sneered. This person's name was Murong Zhi, and he was the second son of Murong Yun. He looked young, but his demeanor was very majestic. After this cold snort, there was immediately He had the ferocious aura of a general in command who was about to behead someone, "Let us hand over Murong Ren and punish him with punishment. What does this mean for our Murong family? He is a subordinate of the Chen family, and he doesn't even know what he is!"

"Yes, this kind of request is really astonishing." Murong Yun took the letter, read it, and shook his head gently, "General Chen is not very old after all. After winning the new victory over Wang Jun, he felt a little bit... He was so arrogant that he actually came to the gate of Jicheng and shouted. You see, although his words seemed humble, saying that Ren'er invaded the border, killed and wounded Han people, occupied the city, dispersed and coerced the small tribes who obeyed the imperial court, but it was nothing more than that. They are all excuses. The strong have always been respected on the grassland. There is no need for these things he said..."

As he spoke, Murong Yun glanced at Murong Huang intentionally or unintentionally, and continued: "We usually promote some Han systems in the tribes because this Han family etiquette has the distinction of superiority and inferiority, which can make the tribes' surnames feel comfortable surrendering, and it can also Gathering the Han people and letting them farm and cast is not to restrain ourselves, we are all very clear about this."

When Murong Huang heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly but said nothing.

Murong Zhuo, on the other hand, continued to sneer: "I don't believe it. Chen Zhi really dares to take action. Does he have the courage? Do you think that a mere few thousand people are more powerful than the four-party coalition forces? You are talking about killing Han people, and those Han people are just on the sidelines." How can a lowly soldier be compared with Murong Ren? Murong Ren's successive defeats are useless, but retaining Murong's bloodline is inherently noble. Using the lives of the untouchables on the frontier as an excuse to ask us to make friends, don't say this. Arrogant, it is ridiculous to even have such an idea, it is an insult to Murong's bloodline!"

Suddenly, the crowd became excited, and anger appeared on Murong Xin's face. Then, he stopped everyone's discussion and issued an order to summon He Jing.

He Jing was from the Han family, but he also had the idea of ​​becoming a vassal of the Murong family. In the past, he accompanied Murong Huang and others on their travels, and even stayed in Daijun for observation.

When the four-party coalition forces besieged Jicheng City, He Jing returned and brought with him Chen Zhi's top, middle and bottom strategies. With these suggestions, he helped Murong's tribe get new ideas during the siege.

In addition, when He Jing stayed in Daijun, he paid attention to the sowing and other matters at that time, and recorded the contents of a "Essential Art of Dividing the People". After bringing it over, he presented it to Murong and was immediately praised by Murong. Xian and others valued it, and then the task of advising farmers to teach students was also handed over to He Jing for his supervision and handling.

Don't underestimate this matter of persuading farmers. In this era, agriculture is the root. Whether it is settlement or migration, it is actually related to the acquisition of food, not to mention increasing the population, attracting refugees, and even raising and training the army.

By working as a farmer, He Jing gradually climbed up the power system of the Murong tribe. Although he was a member of the Han family, he gained considerable authority and had good connections in Jicheng.

He Jing was summoned at this time. As soon as he walked in and saw several people in the room, He Jing's heart skipped a beat. He immediately recognized that they were all close people to Shan Yu, and understood that the nature of this ceremony was probably not simple. But he remained calm on the surface. He walked over and bowed first, then lowered his hands and waited.Murong Xin didn't go around in circles and asked directly: "Mr. He, you were in Dai County before and had interactions with Chen Zhi. How do you know this man?"

Although He Jing was surprised, he had not received news about Chen Zhi's arrival outside the city, but he knew the rumors that Murong Ren was defeated again and again and was chased all over the place by Chen Zhi. He also knew that the son of Shan Yu had now been brought back. In the city, he finally called himself over and asked Chen Zhi what the reason was.

These thoughts flashed through his mind like lightning, and then He Jing answered naturally: "Chen Fujun is a man with great talents and great ambitions!"

"Oh? Are you saying that this person is ambitious and capable in the military?" Murong Xuan immediately became concerned, "Have you found out what kind of temper this person is?"

When He Jing heard this, he sighed and said: "When I was in Daijun, I actually met Lord Chen and even talked to him, but I never saw him leading troops, so I just said that he His conversation and knowledge, when contacting and communicating with such a person, you should not think about what he will be like on the battlefield, but treat him as you normally would."

The remonstrance implicit in the words immediately woke Murong Xin up. He took a deep breath, nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Chen Fu is outside the city now, with a team of people, and he also sent letters. I came here to ask a certain family to hand over their son. The words seemed polite, but it was too disrespectful to the certain family. After all, a certain family also has a title granted by the court. How do you think we should negotiate this matter?"

"What else is there to negotiate with?" Before He Jing could say anything, Murong Zhi started to shout, "Since this man is so conceited, let him see what will happen. Could it be that he thinks he is better than Wang Jun and is not afraid of me, Murong?" ? My Murong tribe is about to rise, and Wang Jun can't stop it, so what can he, Chen Zhi, do? He just took advantage and was lucky enough to capture Youzhou."

Murong Xi next to him was silent when he heard this, but He Jing secretly shook his head and thought to himself: I don't know how many people want to capture Youzhou, but which one can really succeed?Do you really think it was a moment of luck?
But these words cannot be said. Murong Zhi is a member of the Murong tribe, which is the national tribe, and has a very high status. Even if He Jing has some power at the moment, he cannot withstand the oppression of the national tribe.

Fortunately, Murong Yun immediately stopped and reprimanded his son: "Chanyu hasn't spoken yet. It's your turn to speak out. Just stay aside and be honest!"

On the other side, Murong Xuan looked at He Jing. The latter was not afraid of the stage. He pondered for a moment and then said: "Since Chen Fujun mentioned the canon of criminal law, he actually saw that my Murong tribe has been canonized by the imperial court. It is obvious that he wants to leave the Han court." Since the road is like this, Shanyu might as well send someone to negotiate with him. After all, the two families were on good terms, and after talking about the matter, it was resolved."

Seeing that all the Murongs were dissatisfied, he changed his mind and understood, so he added: "I think Mr. Chen also knows the power of our Murong tribe. It's just because of face that we can't retreat as soon as we arrive in front of the city. We can only It’s okay to give an explanation. There is no need to pay anything. After all, with my power, Murong, the four-party coalition forces are not afraid at all. How can they give in because of Chen Fujun’s men? On the contrary, such power will make Chen Fujun Know how to advance and retreat, and take the initiative to lower your body.”

Murong Yun also stroked his beard and smiled and said: "Yes, why not take the opportunity to shock this Chen family, so that they know how to respect me, the Murong clan!"
