Traveling through Tianlong: Starting from the Zhenlong chess game

Chapter 144 Help you thrive, everyone gets what they need

Zhao Mu looked at Murong Fu's slightly suspicious eyes, and he was not surprised either.

After all, no normal person would easily believe such a huge benefit for no reason. He knew that Murong Fu was waiting for a reason to convince him.

Zhao Mu then said: "Mr. Murong, there is no need to be suspicious. I am willing to share this wealth with you equally for three reasons. The first is for A'Zhu." After saying this, Zhao Mu looked at A'Zhu behind him affectionately. He then continued, "Although A'Zhu is just a maid of the Murong family, she was indeed raised by the Murong family, and the Murong family treated her well. Since I want her to be by my side, then I will not wear red lips or white lips. Ya Lai relies on his face to ask for it. I promise to hire Mr. Murong ten thousand gold, I think it should be enough."

Mu Wanqing threw the leftover apple core into the lake, and then she said: "Then you are really generous."

When Wang Yuyan heard this, she also felt that the price Zhao Mu had paid was too high. Although she was not a woman who loved money, she stayed with Murong Fu and knew what so much money could do. Giving so much money in exchange for a maid made her not sure whether she was jealous or envious.

Listening to Mu Wanqing's strange words, Zhao Mu looked at Mu Wanqing and said with a smile: "Haha, I'm generous to A'Zhu, so naturally I won't treat you Wan'er badly." Zhao Mu looked at Murong Fu and continued to explain, "And the second The first reason is that I also want a sum of money to hire Wan'er. Although the money is not difficult to obtain, I alone cannot convert it into cash. If I call on the Jianghu people, I will also I can’t bear to silence them all afterwards, and I have a special status and it’s inconvenient to find someone from the government. Therefore, I need a reliable partner who can transport the money back and secretly convert it into cash.”

Zhao Mu's eyes were on Murong Fu at this time, and he then said: "After much thought, the only people who can do this without leaking the news are my eldest brother Qiao Feng, the leader of the Beggar Clan, and Mr. Murong, who belongs to a century-old family in the south of the Yangtze River, is lost. Because of A'Zhu's relationship, I chose you, Mr. Murong, to be my partner."

After listening to Zhao Mu's words, Murong Fu also nodded silently. Zhao Mu's reasons could convince him.

But that's not what impressed him the most.

Zhao Mu then talked about the third reason. He said: "As for this third reason, it is that this money is related to the third thing about our cooperation."

At this time, Murong Fu raised his hands and said, "Since Master Zhao trusts Murong Fu, then Murong Fu will definitely fulfill Master Zhao's mission."

Hearing that Murong Fu agreed, Zhao Mu smiled and said: "Very good! It's very simple to seize that wealth. We will talk about it later. Now let's talk about the third thing. That is Mr. Murong's The wish of your heart.”

Murong Fu heard this and looked at A'Zhu subconsciously.

Faced with Murong Fu's eyes, Zhao Mu also looked back at A'Zhu, but then said: "Mr. Murong is overly concerned. Although A'Zhu is with me, he has not taken the initiative to mention what Mr. Murong's heart is. What, if you want to say who leaked the news, let’s look around you.”

Murong Fu heard this and looked at Wang Yuyan beside him. When Wang Yuyan saw Murong Fu's eyes, she couldn't help but think of what happened at the water mill that day. She blushed and apologized to Murong Fu: "I'm sorry, cousin, I was also careless."

Zhao Mu smiled and said, "Actually, you can't blame Miss Wang. She really just mentioned it. Later, A'Zhu mentioned to me the matter of Mr. Murong being extorted from five hundred thousand taels of silver by Mr. Hua. I'm not a fool, I recall After thinking about what Miss Wang said before, I realized that Mr. Murong seemed to have a very big intention. After I revealed my willingness to cooperate with Mr. Murong, A'Zhu told me everything."

Looking at Zhao Mu in front of him, Murong Fu felt a little guilty. He swallowed unconsciously, and then said: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhao to have known about this matter for a long time. It's just that Mr. Zhao noticed Murong Fu's plan, why didn't he Instead of punishing me, why are you here to cooperate with me? In other words, Mr. Zhao also has great ambitions and wants to ask Murong Fu for help?" Murong Fu could not understand Zhao Mu more and more now. The two of them were at Water Mill that day. During the fight, Murong Fu also persuaded Zhao Mu to go further. But Zhao Mu flatly refused.

Now Zhao Mu came to cooperate with him again. Apart from Zhao Mu also wanting to reach a higher level, he really couldn't think of any reason for him to take such a risk to cooperate with him.

Zhao Mu shook his head when he heard this and said: "This Young Master Murong has thought too much. Not to mention that today's emperor is wise and intelligent, very incomparable. I, Zhao Mu, am just a warrior who likes money and women. In troubled times, I can be like Taizu. Clean up the world, but when it comes to running the country and ensuring that the people have enough food and clothing, I am far inferior to the saints I am today. Zhao Mu has no talent as a ruler, so naturally he does not dare to enjoy the blessings of that person."

Murong Fu also asked straight to the point: "Since Mr. Zhao has no intention of being in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, what is your intention in helping Murong Fu recover Dayan?"

Seeing Murong Fu show off his cards directly, Zhao Mu stopped beating around the bush. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After moistening his throat, he put down the tea cup and said lightly: "Yanyun Sixteen States!"

Upon hearing these words, everyone present was stunned, especially Murong Fu.

Murong Fu naturally knew what the Sixteen Yanyun Prefectures represented, but it had been more than a hundred years since the Sixteenth Yanyun Prefectures had been stolen by the Liao Kingdom. He, Murong Fu, was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, so how could he hand over the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun to Zhao Mu?

Facing Murong Fu's confused look, Zhao Mu continued to explain: "Haha, Mr. Murong's wish in his heart is just to regain the Xianbei Yan Kingdom during the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms period. And if Mr. Murong wants to restore the country, there is no need to do so. Stealing our territory of the Song Dynasty. This world is so big that there is a place for Mr. Murong to live."

"And the Liao Kingdom covers a vast area of ​​thousands of miles, and it belongs to the Liao Kingdom from the east to the west. It is not difficult to cut off a piece of land from the Liao Kingdom and give it to Master Murong to restore the country. The traitor Shi Jingtang of the Five Dynasties can sell out the Han territory He gave it to the Khitans and became the emperor of the Later Jin Dynasty with the help of the Khitans' troops."

"And Mr. Murong might as well follow the example of Shi Jingtang, submit to the Song Dynasty, and use the strength of the Song Dynasty to restore the Yan Kingdom. When the time comes, Mr. Murong will separate Liaodong and Korea and become his own Emperor of Yan. In return for our cooperation, Mr. Murong will conquer Yan. The Sixteen Prefectures of Yun, together with the land south of the Great Wall of Western Liaoning, will be returned to our Song Dynasty. Our Song Dynasty Taizu and Taizong have not recovered the ancestral land of the Han people, and Mr. Murong has successfully recovered Dayan. You and I each take what we need. This is why I The reason why I would choose to help Mr. Murong you."

After hearing Zhao Mu's plan, Murong Fu fell silent.

Although Murong Fu remained silent, Zhao Mu's plan really touched his heart. For Murong Fu, as long as Dayan can be recovered, the last wish of his ancestors can be fulfilled in his hands. It doesn't matter where he is the emperor, or even the size of his territory. As long as he is allowed to proclaim himself emperor and offer sacrifices to the Dayan Ancestral Temple again. He can take either Han territory or Liao territory.

However, Murong Fu still had a doubt in his heart, so he did not rush to agree to Zhao Mu.
