Chapter 780 The lion speaks

"My son thinks that human affection is important, but Jinyiwei's affection is unusual. The longer this friendship lasts, the easier it is for the two to hate each other. You must know that we are from a family of Jianghu after all, and we are incompatible with the imperial court and officialdom."

Yu Wenyu said solemnly: "Therefore, we should quickly turn this friendship into tangible benefits. The connection with the East Palace must be severed, but we can show that we can do it with ease. We must let Jin Yiwei know that we still have a way out. Would love to make a deal."

After the words were finished, Yu Wenzhao rarely had a thin smile on his stern face. He glanced at the outside of the courtyard and said: "Just now your fourth brother also suggested that Wei father cut off the connection with the East Palace, but he But you said you want to tell Jin Yiwei about this and show sincerity, what do you think?"

Yu Wenyu said solemnly: "No, it is not wise to break the way before the agreement is made. The words of the fourth brother are too extreme. If Jin Yiwei chooses to manipulate us because of this, it will easily make us fall into a passive position."

Yu Wenzhao didn't say a word, but Yu Wenyu gritted his teeth and said, "Father, even though Jin Yiwei did not take advantage of this opportunity to take advantage of the overall situation, but the father has thought about how Jin Yiwei should repay this kind of favor, and the son still said the same thing. , Jin Yiwei's favor is not easy to get."

"You agree with the deal with Jin Yiwei, but you are opposed to selling them a favor at this time, so what do you think we should ask for?" Yu Wenzhao asked rhetorically.

Yu Wenyu was silent for a long time, his eyes narrowed, and he said word by word: "Official body."

As soon as these two words came out, the air in the study immediately became quiet. After a long while, Yu Wenzhao said, "Why?"

"The Yuwen family doesn't lack money, martial arts, influence or friends. The only thing we lack is power."

Yu Wenyu said coldly: "Above the rivers and lakes, even if martial arts are world-class, they are just wooden houses, which will collapse when the wind blows. Only power is the real fortress, and this can only be given by the imperial court."

Yu Wenzhao looked at his second son, and asked in the same cold voice: "You really have a big tone, official—hehe, do you think Jin Yiwei will agree?"

"Maybe, maybe not."

Yu Wenyu said calmly: "If they refuse, it will just show that we don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, and the matter will be left alone, but if they agree, it will be equivalent to Jin Yiwei asking us a higher price. In this way, Jin Yiwei will not owe us anything Our love, in turn, is what we owe him."

"It's interesting what you said," Yu Wenzhao's eyes moved slightly, and he said with a half-smile: "I don't want to sell Jinyiwei's favor, but I owe them their favor. What's the reason for that?"

Yu Wenyu bowed his head and bowed to the end, he firmly said: "Father, Jin Yiwei is a hungry wolf, and if they get their love, they will feel an eyesore after a long time. This is the way to bring disaster, but if we owe their love, so, they On the contrary, you can trust us.”

After the voice fell, the air was silent for a long time, and Yu Wenzhao finally said: "After you go down, get ready. In the past two days, Jin Yiwei's envoy will come to the door. You come with me to receive it."

Yu Wenyu was shocked when he heard the words, with an uncontrollable joy on his face, he quickly replied: "Yes, father!"

The Yuwen family did not change its previous strategy in the end. After Jinyiwei sent Yan Feng, one of the thousands of households, as an envoy to the door, the two sides quickly skipped the process of expressing their opinions and entered the stage of interest negotiation.

The Yuwen family's appetite was frighteningly large, and as soon as they opened their mouths, Jin Yiwei wanted to take over the official status of 37 people including Yu Wenzhao's three surviving sons, nephews and nephews of the main branch.

At first, Yan Feng was also intimidated by the other party's big mouth, but after thinking about it, he immediately understood that the other party was expressing his position, and he was also trying to find out about Jin Yiwei.

So he took his time and started a few days of negotiations with the other party. Before coming, Lu Hanjiang had already given the bottom line for handling, just three words, all can be discussed.

With Jin Yiwei's influence in the imperial court, winning 37 seats is nothing at all, but by doing so, the Yuwen family is tantamount to exhausting all the affection they have saved in Jin Yiwei at once.

In the long run, this is definitely unwise, but Yan Feng seems to have vaguely guessed the intention of Yuwen's family to do so.

Looking at Yu Wenzhao, who is as stable as Mount Tai, and his second son Yu Wenyu, who is neither humble nor overbearing, Yan Feng can't help sighing in his heart.

Lu Hanjiang's reaction to the Yuwen family's surrender this time was to accept, and indeed, as the other party expected, the conditions offered were very generous.

Master Lu's thoughts are not difficult to guess, the Yuwen family joined the imperial court, this will be the best business card he will use to show to the various factions in the world in the future.

As one of the two existing aristocratic families, Yuwen, their surrender is of extraordinary significance, which will greatly hit the natural resistance of all factions in the rivers and lakes when they face the imperial court.

To put it bluntly, this is digging the foundation of the rivers and lakes. Yuwen is an ancient family that existed a hundred years ago, and it is also an existence second only to Shaolin Wudang in power.

It can even be said that if the inextricable relationship behind Taoism and Buddhism is removed, the Yuwen family may not be weaker than Shaolin Wudang in terms of force alone.

Such people serve the imperial court, and the effect it brings to the people of Jianghu is tantamount to a bolt from the blue.

This is different from the big cats and kittens who joined Jinyiwei before. The defection of the Yuwen family is enough to make most of the knights in the rivers and lakes feel doubts, murmurs, or even a question——

Even the Yuwen family, which has been making trouble for Jinyiwei every day and has been fighting openly and secretly for decades, can surrender, so can I?
A few days later, Jin Yiwei and Yuwen's father and son finally reached an agreement, and Jin Yiwei immediately sent a letter to the capital, and at the same time sent a note to the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Military Affairs, starting to reward the nephew of the Yuwen family.

And the Yuwen family also immediately issued a statement, so far they knew their way back and returned to the imperial court. At the same time, they sent family experts to stop the actions of the Gongsun family.

As soon as the news spread, the entire Jianghu lost their voices. The reputation of Jinyiwei Commander Lu Hanjiang reached its peak at this moment, because he had accomplished a great feat that none of the previous commanders could do, and took over the Yuwen Family, one of the forces in the Jianghu. subordinate.

And as the central figure swept by this big wave, the Gongsun family was also shocked.

However, at this moment, Gongsun Huan, the patriarch of the Gongsun family, was not as anxious as outsiders imagined.

Facing a group of family elders who looked distressed, Gongsun Huan said in a calm and unhurried manner: "You don't have to worry, Yuwen has been cut off from the rivers and lakes. If you come forward to block my Gongsun family this time, even Wudang may not accept his love. What's the matter?" fear."

The eldest son, Sun Wang, said worriedly: "Patriarch, there are many masters in the Yuwen family. I'm afraid they will face us this time."

Gongsun Huan said indifferently: "It's okay, my Gongsun family is not a soft persimmon, I can stop as many people as he comes, besides, this time I only want to muddy the water, as for the victory or defeat, that's the second priority."

Gongsun Wang took a deep look at Gongsun Huan, and said seriously: "Originally, the owner of the family has made up his mind, so I shouldn't talk too much, but this matter has a lot to do with it. Family considerations?"

Gongsun Huan slowly got up from his seat, looked at the silent gazes below, he opened his arms and clenched his fists, with a domineering look in his eyes, he said with a smile: "In the future, my Gongsun family will become the number one in the world. It is also the only family, are the elders satisfied with this answer?"
