Chapter 3868: Abandoning old feelings and talking about family and country
Liu Yu's voice was so powerful, his expression so resolute, and an inviolable aura echoed around him. No one would doubt his will and belief in fighting anymore. Wang Miaoyin and Liu Muzhi faced off against each other.
After taking a look at each other, they all said seriously: "Jinu (Brother Yu), we are willing to walk this road with you."
Liu Yu glanced at them and nodded: "I am very grateful that you are willing to accompany me to the end. Now, I have to do what I have to do. You can handle other things."
Wang Miaoyin suddenly said: "Brother Yu, wait a minute, I have something to discuss with you."
Liu Yu had already turned around to leave. When he heard this, he stopped and turned to look at Wang Miaoyin: "Is there anything else important? Is it Alan's aftermath?"
Wang Miaoyin shook her head: "You can say that half of it is her funeral, and the other half is your future family affairs. Since you have decided to take the road of emperor, then your family affairs are state affairs, and wives, concubines, and heirs are all politics.
"
Liu Yu frowned: "Can we wait until I return to Jiankang to discuss this matter? Alan's body is still cold. Now you have to discuss He Lanmin's matter. Isn't it a bit..."
Wang Miaoyin sighed: "Some things will be too late to discuss in Jiankang. I just made it clear that your family affairs will become state affairs from now on. If your wives, concubines, and heirs are not prepared in advance, there will be big troubles. You see
Just look at the Murong family and you will know how serious the consequences will be."
Liu Yu's heart moved and he turned around: "You want to say, Yizhen?"
Wang Miaoyin looked serious and nodded: "Yes, the biggest problem now is not whether you accept to marry He Lanmin, who changed his name to Hu Daoan, or how many more wives you want to marry, but that you already have your first son.
Liu Yizhen, Liu Yizhen's identity has not been made public yet. With Murong Lan's death, I'm afraid it will become a secret. This is her misfortune, but your luck. To be honest, if you really succeed in marrying Murong Lan, you will be married immediately.
Liu Yizhen is the crown prince, so I’m afraid it will be difficult to follow this imperial path.”
Liu Yu gritted his teeth: "Why, just because I married the Princess of Yan, will these Jiankang families firmly oppose me? Because I did not marry them and accept a woman from their family? Miaoyin, is this your personal idea or not?
From your family?!"
A trace of displeasure flashed across Wang Miaoyin's face: "Liu Yu, Murong Lan is not the only one who has sacrificed for you. Over the years, I have also sacrificed a lot for you. She is dead, but she will always live in your heart.
, and I am alive, but I have no fate with you in this life. Now I am worrying about your marriage and children. If you marry another woman and have many sons, what does it have to do with me? Do I owe you anything?"
At the end of Wang Miaoyin's words, her eyes were red, with tears flashing faintly. Liu Yu's heart softened and he quickly said: "I'm sorry, Miaoyin, that's not what I meant. I just wanted to say..."
Wang Miaoyin waved her hand, turned her head, and when she turned back again, the tears in her eyes had disappeared. She said calmly: "Okay, Liu Yu, what I am discussing with you is not a private matter or love. I have already said it before.
However, for the sake of the great cause, we all have to make sacrifices and concessions. Before you ascend the throne, I will continue to help you guard this world as the Queen of the Jin Dynasty until the day you ascend the throne. The family previously opposed your marriage to Murong Lan.
, I have always opposed it, but with your insistence, I still agreed to what you did, even if it cost me to give up my position, I did it, Liu Yu, have I done so much and sacrificed so much?
,Don’t you still believe me?”
Liu Yu lowered his head: "I'm sorry, it's just my wild thoughts. Maybe, maybe it's because of Alan today..."
A plain hand gently put on Liu Yu's arm, and Wang Miaoyin's gentle voice came to his ears: "Okay, Brother Yu, you can't be sad or sad at this time. One day in the future, I will follow you."
Even if Alan is killed, you can't be sad or depressed. At this time, any weakness or depression on your part will only make your enemies laugh. What they want is what you are like now."
Liu Yu raised his head, and the look in his eyes became determined and brave: "You are right, Miaoyin, I should listen to you. Tell me what I want to do!" Wang Miaoyin looked at Liu Muzhi, who had been silent all this time: "Muzhi, please tell me about this matter. It may not be appropriate for me to tell Liu Yu this in my capacity."
Liu Muzhi sighed and said: "Jinu, do you know why these big families are so determined to oppose you and Murong Lan? This is definitely not because of the jealousy of a woman named Miaoyin."
Liu Yu nodded: "We have discussed this before, because at that time they were afraid that the entire Murong tribe would become a new big family, and a mother is more valuable than a son. The Yizhen born to Murong Lan and I would become my eldest son.
If you follow the path of the emperor, it means that the Murong family will be superior to the Wang family and the Xie family. This is like the family of relatives in the Han Dynasty. When one person becomes enlightened, the whole family ascends to heaven, just like He Jin in the late Han Dynasty, or Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
The Wei, Huo, and Li families of that time, right?"
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, and the Murong family is different from other aristocratic families like them. They became an aristocratic family from the submission of barbarians. Most of the children in the family are good at riding and military. If you are
Under this system of military merit and official title, people will quickly gain titles through meritorious service, occupy many official positions, and have power in their hands, which will quickly be converted into interests such as land and population. In this way, just like the guards
Just as military families such as the Huo family and the Huo family quickly replaced the Liehou family in the early Han Dynasty, the power in this world will probably transfer from the hands of the Wang Xie family to the Murong family in just a few decades."
Liu Yu frowned: "They are overthinking. Even if Murong Lan marries me, she will change her surname to Zang and become a Han woman. Our son will also be surnamed Liu, not Murong. It is impossible to sway them so quickly.
interests."
Liu Muzhi shook his head: "But in line with your rule of winning titles based on military merit, and the fact that the Murong family can conquer noble battles, there will definitely be children of the Murong family who will perform meritorious service. In fact, the Jin Dynasty lacks cavalry.
If Murong surrenders and suddenly has tens of thousands of cavalry, he will have great achievements like Wei Qing and Huo Qubing. Even if you can control the situation, by the time Yizhen ascends the throne, the power of this natal family will not be lost. The Liang family and Dou in the Later Han Dynasty
The issue of family monopoly may reoccur, and the worries of these big families who are accustomed to reading history books and aware of the rise and fall of the family are not groundless!"
