Chapter 1380 Oath to Kill the Old Thief
To the southeast of Zimengchuan, there is a camp that is not too big. This is where Wen Fangzhi and the others were detained.

The envoys sent by Xingtai to Liaodong, besides Wen Fang, had more than [-] escorts, and the stronghold they set up in Ma Shijin, after several years of development, has also grown to a large scale. In addition to gathering nearly a thousand households in Liaodong, some merchants from the south sent personnel here to handle business matters.

Because of this, Ma Shijin has developed into a fortress with its own armed forces.Because this area was earlier in Murong Ren's sphere of influence, and Murong Ren's need for Xingtai's help was much stronger, so he did not exert more control over Wen Fangzhi's actions in Ma Shijin.

After Murong Hao broke out and killed Murong Ren, he didn't attack Ma Shijin directly, but only controlled Wen Fangzhi and others who were around Dathorn City to appease the exiles. A part of the money and food.

This camp is independent from Murong's camp. The innermost layer is naturally Wen Fangzhi, Liu Qun and others, and beside them are the hundreds of soldiers Murong Hao arranged to guard them, and the outermost is Murong. The soldiers led by Ping, Murongjiang and others.Such a tangled situation between the inner and outer rings also shows that the Murong Department itself is full of contradictions.

Although Wen Fangzhi and others were brought under control, they were not treated harshly. It was just that their freedom of movement was restricted, and food and other supplies were still sufficient.

In fact, even if Murong Ping and others did not come to protect him, Murong Hao did not intend to kill Wen Fangzhi and others, otherwise he would completely tear himself apart with Nan Guo and there would be no room for maneuver.Even before that, Shi Hu, the host of Jie, had repeatedly sent people to ask for Wen Fangzhi and others, regardless of life or death, Murong Hao did not let go of his promise.

When Yang Yu arrived here, he saw Liu Qun and others lighting a fire outside the camp, and they pulled out several black mud balls the size of human heads from the fire.

Liu Qun was sitting on the stone slab without manners, directing several younger generations to beat the clay balls, including Wen Hongzu, the envoy of the Southern Kingdom.Lu Chen and Cui Yue looked like old celebrities, sitting opposite each other and talking about playing chess, turning their heads occasionally to look at Liu Qun who was playing games with the juniors, with a somewhat dumbfounding expression on their faces.

Such a picture even makes people feel a little cheerful, without the slightest hint of the distress of being in prison.

Someone had already stepped forward to report Yang Wu's arrival, but there was no big reaction. Liu Qun stood up, patted the dust on his robes, waved his hands and said to several juniors: "Send the things to the dormitory quickly. The old man does not deserve to enjoy this delicacy in the world."

Yang Yu had already walked nearby, so he could hear Liu Qun's words clearly, but he didn't show any embarrassment.These Liao border exiles have been in chaos for a long time, and they pay more attention to practical interests, and they don't pay much attention to some politeness or contempt.

"Recently, I have been busy with business and have no time to come to visit. How is Mr. Liu?"

Yang Wu took a step forward and bowed to Liu Qun first. He had a high position in Yan Guocheng, but he didn't dare to ignore Liu Qun too much.Although his power has long since ceased to exist, he was able to instigate Duan Lan of Duan Bu to create such a big disturbance in western Liaoning with just some empty words.

"It's just that the thief who broke his promise was not angry to death, so he can barely survive."

Liu Qun did not deliberately ignore Yang Wu, turned around and replied, there was even a pleasant smile on his face, but his words were not very polite.

Yang Wu didn't take this as disobedience, but just sighed: "Grand Liu is too stubborn, the world in Liao border is like this, every time you act helplessly, those who are deeply trapped here don't know you and me!"

While speaking, he turned his head to look at Wen Fangzhi who was standing on the other side, and also saluted him slightly.

Wen Fangzhi's reaction was not as indifferent as Liu Qun's. After seeing this, he snorted coldly, then turned his back, and his tone became more aggressive: "The old thief Murong turned his back on his master and turned himself into a thief. A certain person is busy, I wonder if he is building a coffin for shelter?"

Being so offended by a young junior face to face, no matter how self-restraining Yang Wu is, a look of displeasure flashed across his face at this moment, and he also responded with a sneer: "I am old and short-sighted. I don't know what Wen Hongzu meant. But if your Excellency has such an urgent need, based on the old friendship with Wen Taizhen, I will be happy to help you."

A few traces of sullenness flashed across Wen Fangzhi's face, and then he turned around and stared at Yang Wu's face, his tone became even more indifferent: "Mountains and rivers are everywhere, and loyal bones can be buried. It is a door that is willing to fall, and when the master Wang comes here , if there is no preparation in advance, the whole family may not be able to have Anzhong."

"In the old days, when dragons harassed the side, there were many idlers who made such disgusting noises. Let's see."

Yang Wu was already a little irritable, but being humiliated by Wen Fangzhi face to face one after another, he felt even more ashamed, and felt that these people from the southern country were arrogant and stubborn, and there was really no way out.

He ignored Wen Fangzhi, turned to Liu Qun, and said, "Would Mr. Liu be willing to talk about it?"

After Liu Qun pondered for a while, he waved his hand to signal Yang Yu to go with him to another camp, and said as he walked, "Is it true that Murong Wannian received Huili from the Jie Kingdom, but he was still not satisfied, so I sent you At this point, do you want to plan on both ends?"

Yang Wu was not surprised that Liu Qun directly revealed his intention for coming. Both of them had made a living in the Liao border for many years, and who would have less experience of all kinds of intrigues?
The two parties sat in separate seats, and Wen Fangzhi, who was still full of disdain for Yang Qun, walked in and didn't speak, just sat directly on the seat on the other side of Liu Qun, looking at Xiang Yang with a sneer in the corner of his mouth duck.

Yang Wu was quite uncomfortable being looked at by Wen Fangzhi's eyes. He simply pretended that the other party didn't exist, and said to Liu Qun: "Your Majesty has repeated actions like this. It's short-sighted or difficult to look forward to. Mr. Liu You don't know the reason? If the king is the only one to blame for this matter, it would be too harsh. The Southern Kingdom has always treated our border soldiers poorly, and their deeds are not in this way. If things go on like this, there will be more than two or three people who repeat the incident!"

This time, Wen Fangzhi didn't object to Yang Wu's words, but the words were still so unpleasant: "If everyone has the eyesight to see the small things and judge right from wrong, if you look at the north and south, how can there be so many left bones? Thousands of years He has a penchant for death, and there are many fools under his command to follow him, and mediocrity to help evil, indeed it cannot be said to be his fault alone."

"Wen Hongzu!"

Yang Duck's endurance was wiped out by Wen Fangzhi's teasing, and he immediately jumped up against the case, pointed at the other party and shouted angrily: "Your father was also a celebrity at one time, didn't he have good words to teach you? Not to mention that you are currently in prison waiting to die , General Shen of the Southern Kingdom entrusted you with the important task of caressing the border, but you are in danger, disregarding the important task, and showing off your tongue in vain. If it weren't for the arbitrariness and recklessness of the younger generation, why did the Liao incident come to this? Now the exiles in the Liao border have no way to return, and the people are disappointed , you don’t have one or two crimes?”

After Wen Fangzhi heard this, he was also taken aback for a moment, stood up from the seat after a while, saluted Yang Duck solemnly, sat down again after a while, sighed and said: "I am suffering from such a calamity. , Regret for being greedy for meritorious deeds, underestimate the ten thousand years of greed and violence, and play with it in the palm of your hand. After this, even if there is a day to return to the south, I am afraid that the general may not be of any favor to me."

Hearing Wen Fangzhi's frank confession of his mistakes and the annoyance in his heart, Yang Wu couldn't react for a while.He was also dazed for a moment, then sat back in the table, remained silent for a while, and then looked at Liu Qun again and said, "Although there is a good time to use this time, it is not impatient. Mr. Liu should also know what the king's temper is, so why bother?" , Why bother to act recklessly and offend..."

Murong Hao's repetition this time brought the situation in the Liao region into a subtle and unpredictable situation, and everyone who was in it would inevitably feel panic, and Yang Qu was no exception.He didn't have the courage to directly oppose Murong Hao, but he actually complained in his heart that Wen Fangzhi and Liu Qun were too aggressive and pushed Murong Hao's bottom line directly, because this kind of backlash was triggered.

Yang Yu was among them, but his position was actually quite embarrassing. He was a courtier of the Murong family and an old Chinese man. Although he had some ideas of helping Murong Hao achieve his great career before, it seemed that the hope was very slim now, so he naturally didn't want to. The relationship between Liaodong and the Southern Kingdom was so rigid that it had to be resolved by war.

Regret also flashed across Liu Qun's face at the right time, and he looked at Yang Wu expectantly and said, "Since Mr. Yang can come to see each other, there must be room for redemption in this matter? Leaving aside the past, I'll just say one thing, Those of us old people are dispensable. If Murong Wannian detains the younger generation here, it would be too much to offend the prestige of the stage. Although he is cunning, he is ultimately weaker than others. So, I'm worried that he will do more evil things in a moment of errand. Let's not talk about anything else, can we send Hongzu back to Ma Shijin first?"

When Yang Wu heard this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face. He glanced at Wen Fang with resentment, but nodded slightly and said, "I will do my best in this matter, but I cannot guarantee success."

When Wen Fangzhi heard this, his expression gradually became agitated, and his attitude towards Yang Wu also changed greatly: "If I can be rescued, I will never forget this kindness. But, Mr. Liu and I..."

Yang Yu really didn't like Wen Fangzhi, a young man. Seeing him now, he couldn't help but feel even more disdainful. He knew that Liu Qun was mature and prudent, and he would never make any drastic moves like the one before. To appease the exiles from the Liao border must be driven by Wen Fangzhi.

This young man from the southern country also behaves in a distinct southern style, reckless, underestimating the current situation, arrogant and arrogant. If it weren't for Liu Qun and others, Yang Yu really couldn't figure out why the southern country sent such a guy to Liaodong.

Although he is not ashamed of him in his heart, the other party also represents Nanguo Xingtai to a certain extent. Seeing that his attitude has softened, Yang Wu does not want to be too hostile. After all, if he wants to achieve the state described by Murong Hao earlier, It is indispensable to deal with it.

"Your Majesty is actually in a dilemma at the moment. You have been instigating too much and disturbing people's sentiments in the territory before. It is really rude. It is difficult for Your Majesty to let go of it easily. The King of the South is victorious, and His Majesty does not know this. As long as there is room for tolerance, Your Majesty And I waited for Liao Bian to think about returning to exile, and I didn't want to offend Xingtai too much. If I want to be released, it's not enough to rely on my old man's advice..."

The implication is that if Wen Fangzhi wants to get rid of the current siege, he still needs to work hard on his own, especially not to use the previous style of acting.

It is true that Xingtai is strong, but as long as there is no large army approaching the border for a day, Murong Hao will still be the master of the Liao border.Being in the court of other people, but repeatedly offending the master, is this not courting death?What's more, Murong Hao himself is not a kind person, both of them want to be stronger, if no one side gives in first, they will inevitably collide and die.

Yang Wu was quite satisfied with Wen Fangzhi's cowardice, knowing that it was good to be afraid of death, so he could intimidate him.

However, after Wen Fangzhi heard these words, his face suddenly changed again: "Murong Wannian really dare to kill me? He, he is not afraid... Sigh, hateful, hateful, Murong Ren is too incompetent to bother to create for him. Chance, he can't..."

"Hongzu, be careful with your words!"

Liu Qun, who was sitting in the middle seat, suddenly changed his face when he heard this, and suddenly interrupted Wen Fangzhi's words with a stern voice.And Wen Fangzhi seemed to realize something, and closed his mouth hastily.

But who is Yang Wu? Wen Fangzhi's unintentional slip of the tongue and Liu Qun's fierce reaction have already made him guess a lot, and his expression also changed greatly: "You, you want to murder the king? You, you are really afraid The border of Liao is not chaotic, and we will only be willing to let blood flow into rivers here!"

Liu Qun looked embarrassed, and wanted to explain a few words, but he opened his mouth but couldn't say a word.Wen Fangzhi, on the other hand, was young and impulsive. After hearing the words, he simply spread his hands and said: "Murong Wannian forced me to come forward to invite Murong Ren to have a meeting. Killed. Since the plot failed, there is no fear of people knowing, I have been detained for ten thousand years, and there are even more evil signs of betrayal, I want to kill him, why not?"

"Since I have said this, I am not afraid to tell Duke Yang. Murong Hao is a treacherous and courageous thief. The general has a secret order to kill him as soon as he seizes the opportunity. If the Liao border is in the hands of such wolves, For a long time, it will be a serious problem. And the person who will take over the affairs of the Liao border, the general also has a favorite candidate, that is, Murong Ke, the son of the Murong Ministry. Murong Xuangong and my good friend are good friends. I will win the power here for him, and he will return to the palm in the future The tribe will work with me to stabilize the Liao territory."

Hearing Wen Fangzhi's initiative to reveal this plan, Yang Wu couldn't help taking a deep breath. He didn't expect that Nanguo Xingtai had such a far-reaching plan for the Liao border affairs, and even Murong Hao was already on the Xingtai. list!
Although Wen Fangzhi's methods were clumsy and he lacked much in the way of the city, the attitude revealed in this made Yang Wu realize that the situation he wanted was impossible to achieve.Xingtai was so on guard against Murong Hao, how could he allow them to behave in the Liao border, to achieve that kind of dual situation of internal and external.

Wen Fangzhi still took it for granted: "Since Yongjia, every time the country has suffered misfortune, although Murong Hao and his like are only barbarians at the frontier, what kind of nobleman was Shi Shilong in the old days? Such thieves, Treacherous and cunning, now the next ten thousand years of rebellion and return to Jietai, observing his mind, is nothing more than intending to imitate Shilong's past, waiting for the opportunity to devour the master and enrich himself. How can such a person be calm and calm, and must be eradicated from the weak! "

Hearing this, Yang Wu jumped up from the table in shock, and his sense of Wen Fangzhi changed again.At first, he thought that the other party was just a dandy who relied on his own family background, but he could say such a thing and explain Murong Hao's plan in one sentence, how could he be vulgar!

Moreover, in his words, he even compared Murong Hao to Shi Shilong, which undoubtedly further clarified his determination to kill him.

For a moment, a strong impulse surged in Yang Wu's heart, and he wanted to fly away and report to Murong Hao, asking him to kill Wen and release him quickly.But this thought was only fleeting, and soon Yang Wu felt that there seemed to be a heavy burden in the dark, making him unable to move at all.

First of all, if it is as Wen Fangzhi said, Nanguo Xingtai has a strong idea of ​​killing Murong Hao, and has even prepared a backup.Then, even if Wen Fangzhi is killed in this situation, it will not hinder anything, but it will make the Southern Kingdom retaliate more violently.

Secondly, if he asked Murong Hao to kill Wen Fangzhi, he would be loyal to Murong Hao, but he would be irresponsible to his entire clan.From then on, his family will always be tied to the broken ship of the Murong Ministry, and there is no possibility of finding another way out, at least the Southern Kingdom will not accept them again.

Moreover, in the private conversation between Murong Hao and him before, although he could not fully understand Murong Hao's intentions, he also faintly smelled a hint of danger.It is indeed too dangerous to follow such a scheming and cunning protagonist.From Yang Wu's point of view, Nan Guo's attitude that Murong Hao must be eliminated is indeed very wise.

However, if Murong Hao is no longer the target of Nanguo's dialogue, then where will the Yang family go?

Originally, Yang Duck came here full of worries, but after hearing Wen Fangzhi's statement, his irritability increased several times, so that his breathing became cloudy, and his face became pale and uncertain.

In such a state of mind, there is nothing else to talk about.Yang Wu staggered to his feet, saluted hastily, and left without mentioning anything about his coming.He has experienced turmoil, but he has never encountered such an anxious and tangled situation in his life, and he has completely lost his mind for a while.

After watching Yang Yu leave the camp, Wen Fangzhi looked at the direction in which his car was driving away, and said worriedly: "Once this time I go, my life will be involuntary..."

Liu Qun stood on the other side and said firmly: "Don't worry, those who can live in the Liao Dynasty are the most shrewd. He told Murong Wannian about this matter, which is really harmful and not beneficial to him. Of course, don't be too optimistic, Murong Wannian said that Haoliao has been around for a long time, and it is not easy to kill."

"These old family sects really have a reason to die. Don't hold back, there are many private schemes. Once encountering troubles, how can you expect them to work together. The revitalization of the king's industry depends entirely on the general's ability. As a result, there was still rebellion in Jiangdong in the old year, and he was looking for his own death!"

Hearing what Wen Fangzhi said, Liu Qun chuckled: "Wang Yezhenxing? It's just that I don't know who is in Zhenxing."

"The country treats the British Lord with virtue. If those old clans were really loyal and unparalleled, why would the king's career drift to the left of the river? It's nothing more than talent and power. They dare not fight for the first, only dare to be chaotic. They have already humiliated the ancestors of the family. It's just a joke to live in the world."

Hearing what Wen Fangzhi said, Liu Qun rolled his eyes, and after getting along with him for a long time, he became familiar with him. He raised his hand and patted Wen Fang on the back, and scolded with a smile: "I always feel that you kid is mocking me!"

Wen Fangzhi laughed: "My cousin is willing to stay here with me, and use his life to make up for the past mistakes. Even if it is inevitable to die, he is still a man of integrity. Who dares to laugh!"

The two of them received Yang Wu just now, although their words were pretentious, but one sentence was true.That's the big change in the situation in the Liao border this time. Murong Hao, a rebellious boy, suddenly turned to the Jie country, which was indeed beyond Wen Fang's expectations.

Previously, in order to be able to accomplish things in western Liaoning, he had promised to help resolve the division of Murong's Ministry, and it was precisely because of Wen Fangzhi's guarantee that Murong Ren relaxed his vigilance, and was easily killed by Murong Hao.

The balance that Liaodong had carefully maintained was broken. Even himself and others were detained by the capricious Murong Hao, which made Wen Fangzhi very depressed. Such a strategy hopes to reverse the situation again.

For them, the biggest advantage is the platform behind them.Although the Xingtai cannot provide them with direct and practical benefits at the moment, the general trend of the situation also makes these people in Liaobian not dare to underestimate them.Under the situation of being cautious, they are given room to plan.

This time Yang Wu's visit, Wen Fang mainly sent him a clear signal, that is, Xingtai completely gave up negotiating with Murong Hao, and even listed him as a must-eliminate target.In other words, it would be a dream for these exile leaders to rely on a channel like Murong Hao to obtain any benefits or promises in the industry.

If they don't want to lose the opportunity to have a dialogue with Xingtai and stick to the Murong Ministry in Liaodong, they must choose a new spokesperson.

The reason why Yang Wu was chosen to provoke them, rather than Murong Ping and others who were closer to them on the surface, was because of the suggestion of Liu Qun and others.At present, the Murong family seems to be the main force in the Liao border, but the influence of these exiles is indeed not small.Moreover, Yang Wu has been in charge of the secrets of Liaodong for a long time, and he is scheming. Once he makes a move, the chance of success is much higher than that of Murong Ping and other mediocre families.

Moreover, Liu Qun and the others were like reading the palm prints of these old Chinese and Korean sects' establishment strategies, and they knew better how to incite them.

As for letting Murong Ke return to take charge of the tribe, it was just a pretense played by Wen Fangzhi casually, to show that the Xingtai had already been filed.If these people don't want to have no room for discussion in the future, they must make plans before Xingtai has actual actions.

Once Murong Ke was sent back to his hometown, as a leading party to help Master Wang crusade against his father, the role these exiled sects could play in it would be very limited.

"If I don't kill this old boy, it's hard to get rid of my anger! Fortunately, before heading north, the blood of the heirs was left in the family, otherwise he would die in this town later, it would be shameless to see the old father."

Wen Fangzhi also knew that this matter had little chance of success, so when formulating this strategy, he also gambled with his life.Of course, old people like Liu Qun, who are well aware of human affairs in the Liao border, are also needed to pick up the omissions and perfect the details. Otherwise, even if Wen Fangzhi has an idea, it will be difficult to implement it.

"Xianda or die suddenly, I will sigh when I am here. I only hope that those boys can leave a few lotus leaf chickens for me to eat."

Liu Qun stroked his belly and strode towards the house.

Wen Fangzhi sighed repeatedly in the back. He had tasted this method of roasting meat wrapped in lotus leaves and covered with mud at the family banquet of the General's Mansion. Liu Qun, a group of poor relatives who have never seen the market, are very happy with it, and they can't get tired of eating it every day.

Thinking about him, Lao Tzu was an extremely respected minister in Jiangdong, and he was considered pampered, but he rarely lived a long life.Guys like Liu Qun lived in remote areas and had a difficult life, but their ability to survive to this day is probably related to this kind of heartless open-mindedness.

With emotion, he has gradually overtaken Liu Qun, only to hear Liu Qun yelling after him: "The kid doesn't know how to respect the elderly, and his bad behavior is even worse for his father!"
