Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 176 All women in the house can be taken away
The guard serving in the pavilion filled up the glasses for both of them. Before the jug fell to the ground, Luo Chengxian picked up the wine glass first and said respectfully: "I am a guest from afar, so naturally I have to drink to Brother Rong first."

It stands to reason that King Chen is the host, and when two people have equal status, the host should respect the guest first.

By doing this, Prince Nan Zhao obviously placed himself in a lower position than Murong Chen.

Murong Chen laughed and didn't refuse. He picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Luo Chengxian also drank with him.

Putting down the wine glass, he praised: "After drinking so much wine, Yunchun wine from Yan State is the most powerful. Just like the temperament of Yan people, they are open-minded and bold, slightly spicy and then sweet."

Murong Chen smiled: "So the emperor's brother and his wife knew that you were not going to Yunzhou City this time, so they sent someone to send you several carts of good wine to take back."

The guard filled up both of their wine glasses again.

Luo Chengxian raised his glass again: "Brother Murong, please thank the Emperor and Queen on my behalf."

Murong Chen also picked up his wine glass and drank it all.

The guard wanted to come over to pour more wine, so Murong Chen waved his hand and filled it for the two of them himself.

"This time I want to give you a toast. If my aunt and my brother hadn't made the decision, I really don't know where to borrow those 300 million kilograms of grain."

He raised his glass and joked: "Brother Xian is now my biggest creditor."

"No, no, Brother Murong is too polite."

Although Luo Chengxian had little contact with Murong Chen, he had heard many legends about him in the past two years.

Knowing that he was domineering and cruel, the Yan army he led went on expeditions and slaughters, with almost no defeats.

Luo Chengxian was a little afraid of him.

Especially this time in the attack on Nanchu, a large army came to the city and broke the city in less than an hour. He did not want to offend such a strong general.Luo Chengxian drank the wine he proposed and deliberately drew closer: "There is an old saying among our people in Nanzhao, 'cousins ​​are the closest, the bones are broken and the tendons are connected.' You and I are the closest cousins." , I am honored to be able to help Brother Murong."

Murong Chen's heart moved.

It was clearly written in the original documents between the two countries that the principal should be repaid with interest within three years.

And there is also an additional clause: if Nanzhao State is invaded, Yan State will send troops to support it free of charge.

Why do you think this kid doesn't even have to pay it back?
No matter how he is, he is still the prince of a country. Even if he speaks politely, it is not for this reason.

Murong Chen took a careful look at Luo Chengxian and saw that his face was full of flattery. He thought to himself, does he really mean this?
If so, that would be great!

Even if the war is over within three years, Yan and Chu must have experienced huge losses, and I am afraid that they will not be able to produce this much food for a while.

Chu State does have countless gold and silver, but Nanzhao is also quite rich. If people only want food, it will be really difficult.

However, he will definitely not give the food and grass to himself in vain. Since he can say such things, he may have other plans.

Murong Chen thought for a while, while pouring the wine, he pretended to be unintentional and said: "My dear brother, these words are touching enough. As for food, it is the foundation of people's livelihood, and it must be repaid. Otherwise, my dear brother will help you so much this time." What can I, Murong Chen, do to thank you?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Chengxian felt that he had a clue.

He didn't know that King Chen intended to give him a chance to raise new conditions. He thought he had just waited for the best opportunity, and hurriedly held the wine glass with a serious expression.

"To tell you the truth, Brother Murong, our Nanzhao Kingdom has a full treasury, rich products, loyal ministers and good generals, long rivers and natural dangers outside, and relatives like the Yan Kingdom with strong military forces that no one dares to offend. Logically speaking, I should be very satisfied. .”

He sighed: "But for me, power and wealth are just that. What I really want is a pleasant person who can accompany me in this life."
