Chapter 778 Divide the spoils and kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys (1)
Wei Wuji glanced at Murong Zhao indifferently, and said, "The Eighth Prince's current attitude is just to ask Mu Xiangxing for convenience?"

If it was normal, Murong Zhao would definitely get angry.But now, he clearly understands his situation.His attitude can be regarded as an offense to Mu Qingyi, even if Mu Qingyi behaves generously and doesn't care about him, this kind of thing can never be done again.Murong Zhao took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Murong Qi who was sitting next to him got up quickly, cupped his hands and said, "Eighth brother is still young, please don't blame Mu Xiang if he is not sensible."

Mu Qingyi smiled lightly, in terms of youth, Murong Zhao might be two years older than him.But since Murong Qi had already said that, Mu Qingyi naturally couldn't argue with him anymore.He smiled lightly and said, "It's okay, the eighth prince is in a bad mood, and the truth is understandable." It's heartless to be able to feel better even after the country has perished.

Murong Qi heaved a sigh of relief, and continued: "Thank you Mu Xiang, we really want to see Second Brother and Father Emperor again, please be kind to Mu Xiang."

"Please Mu Xiangrong!" In the hall, all the Huaguo clan stood up and said.

Mu Qingyi narrowed her eyes slightly, but her face became more gentle, and she said with a faint smile, "If that's the case... well, come, please come and invite Mr. Murong over here." After hearing Mu Qingyi's order, the guard at the door said respectfully In response, he flew away.

After a while, Murong Xi followed Shi Shiran, the guard who summoned him, and walked in.Glancing at everyone present, she frowned slightly, "Qingyi, what's the matter?" Mu Qingyi smiled slightly and said, "Cousin, these people said they have something to discuss, so I troubled my cousin to go. I don't know... whether Need to evade the truth?" The last question was naturally asked by Murong Qi, Murong Zhao and others.Murong Qi hurriedly said: "No, no, this matter...in fact, it has something to do with Mu Xiang."

"Oh?" Mu Qingyi raised her eyebrows and said with a faint smile, "In that case, please sit down, cousin."

Murong Xi sat down under Mu Qingyi, glanced at Murong Qi and Murong Zhao calmly, and said indifferently: "I am no longer a member of the royal family of the Hua Kingdom. I wonder if there is anything you two need to discuss with me?" Murong Qi smiled helplessly, looked at Murong Xi and said, "Second brother, it was indeed the father's fault that happened back then, but...it's been so long now, don't you really think we are brothers?" Murong Xi smiled lightly and said nothing, looking at Murong Qi with a faint mockery.Now Murong Qi will say that what happened back then was wrong with the father?I'm afraid that his brothers didn't know how happy they were when his father ordered his crown prince to be abolished and the order was copied.It's not that Murong Qi didn't do the things that made him fall into trouble at the beginning.The thing had already happened, so he just regarded himself as a failure in life, but now why bother to set up any friendship with him?Did Murong Qi think that the current him could influence the decision of the Xiyue Emperor?
"Don't dare to climb high, the third prince has something to say directly." Murong Xi said flatly.

Murong Zhao glared at Murong Xi with some resentment, and said impatiently: "Third brother, what are you talking about with him? You can tell at a glance that he remembers what happened back then, so why would he recognize brotherhood? Just say it straight .”

Murong Qi sighed helplessly, looked at Murong Xi and said, "Second brother should have also heard about the fact that the father hid the treasury and the wealth of the Chinese royal family for hundreds of years?"

Murong Xi nodded disapprovingly.Murong Qi was overjoyed, he hesitated for a moment, looked at Mu Qingyi who was sitting in the seat, and said: "Since this is the case, the money in Hua Guo's treasury is naturally owned by Xiyue now. I hope that Prime Minister Mu can exchange Hua Guo's royal property for us. "Murong Qi's words are reasonable, and this request seems to be not too much.Just like those Chinese merchants who surrendered to Xiyue, most of them will return the property stolen by Huahuang after they find it.After all, in the future, this country will still rely on these people to run business.But Murong Qi obviously confused a point of view on purpose.Members of the royal family are different from ordinary people. After ordinary people surrender to Xiyue, they become citizens of Xiyue, but even if members of the royal family surrender, they are still defeated and prisoners.Xiyue was kind to them, not because he wanted to be nice to them, but to buy people's hearts, so that the people of the original Hua Kingdom could feel the generosity and benevolence of the Xiyue emperor.If they thought they could rely on this to negotiate terms with Mu Qingyi, they would be thinking too highly of themselves.

Mu Qingyi sat leaning on the chair, looked a little lazily at the upright Murong Qi in front of her, and lowered her eyes slightly.

Wei Wuji smirked, shook the folding fan in his hand and said calmly: "Third princes, have you made any mistakes? Whether it is the treasury of Huaguo or the private property of Huaguo royal family, since Xiyue took over Jian'an City, they all belong to the West Vietnam."

Murong Qi's complexion changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Young Master Wei, what did you say? The private property of the royal family belongs to my Murong family. Why should it be owned by Xiyue? Could it be that...all the families who submit to Xiyue, Mu Xiangdu intends to rob the house?"

Mu Qingyi raised her eyes, looked at Murong Qi lightly, and said, "The third prince wants to know why? It's very simple, because...you were defeated and Xiyue won. This is our rightful trophy. What's wrong?" Seeing the changing faces of the people below, Mu Qingyi changed the subject and said, "However... what the third prince said is not unreasonable. Huahuang's private property... the truth is not necessary. But..."

"But what?" Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that Mu Qingyi's words had turned around.These royal family members naturally didn't have to worry about money.But now that the Hua Kingdom is destroyed, their original fiefs, salaries, and some land are naturally gone, and how long can the wealth stored in the original mansion last for them?Naturally, they valued this huge wealth very much.

Mu Qingyi said: "Huahuang has no way, so that the people's livelihood withered and the people were displaced. You can only take half of the royal property, and the other half must be used to help the people. You must donate half of your wealth in the name of Huahuang's forgiveness. Disaster relief."

"This..." Murong Zhao's face was a little ugly, "Is half too much?" The royal family of Huaguo has saved hundreds of years of wealth, no one knows how much.But definitely enough to shock everyone.But now that he has to take out half of it abruptly, how can it make people feel uncomfortable.Mu Qingyi raised her eyes, and said lightly: "There is a saying that the Eighth Prince should have heard, take it from the people, and use it for the people. Didn't the Murong family's wealth originally come from the people of Huaguo? What's more, the entire Huaguo The common people only use half of it, and the remaining half belongs to the people who are doing it, so it is enough for you to live in luxury for several lifetimes, right?"

"This..." Everyone hesitated.Murong Qi frowned and said, "Master Mu, can the name of the relief be changed?" If they say it's for the father's forgiveness, it's tantamount to admitting what Mu Qingyi said before, "Huahuang has no way, and even the people's livelihood Withering, and the people displaced", it is tantamount to putting all the fault of this war and the demise of Hua on Huahuang.As a result, the Murong family's reputation was almost ruined.A country's king is fatuous and unreasonable, leading to the destruction of the country. What is there to be loyal, sympathetic to, and concerned about such a royal family?
