Chapter 482: Beauty is like duckweed in troubled times
Murong Lan shook her head and said seriously: "My Murong family is loyal to the Qin Dynasty and to the King of Heaven. The King of Heaven has been very kind to our Murong clan, so why should we do anything inappropriate?"
Mrs. Zhang sighed: "Miss Lan, even if you gave your body to the King of Heaven, you refused to keep it. Isn't this the best explanation? You are willing to give the most important thing to your daughter's family, not because you love the King of Heaven.
, but to ask the King of Heaven to trust the intelligence of your Murong family and then make a decisive judgment in this war. As a woman, I can see clearly."
Murong Lan looked at Madam Zhang motionless for a long time, and then sighed softly: "It is said that Madam Zhang is a woman who is not inferior to men, and has more knowledge than many ministers. When I meet her today, she is indeed well-deserved. Since you can see so accurately,
Why don't you tell the King of Heaven and let him take us down?"
Mrs. Zhang shook her head gently: "I have no evidence. Even Yang Pinggong's remonstrance to the King of Heaven was ineffective. How could the King of Heaven believe me when I speak as a woman? Because you and I are also forced to have our country destroyed and our family destroyed.
Serving a man who destroyed his own country, and what happened to your Murong family, I know very well and sympathize with you, and I can understand even if you have such thoughts."
Murong Lan frowned: "According to your opinion, our Murong family wants to seize the power of your men. In the world, is this understandable?"
Mrs. Zhang sighed faintly: "Who in the world will not sit down? As long as the people can be saved from war, that's it. From the beginning, I knew that the King of Heaven's southern expedition would not succeed, because even Wang Lugong knew that,
Now is far from the time for the unification of the world, so his failure this time is a destined result. What I hope is that you, the Murong family, don't think that the King of Heaven has failed, and your chance has come."
Murong Lan curled her lips: "Why not? If the King of Heaven loses the war this time, the people in the north will be unstable, and it is likely to fall into a long-term war. Mrs. Zhang is so smart, how could she not think of this? Don't talk about us Murong then.
The Tuoba family and the Zhang family in Liangzhou are not without the possibility of recovery."
Mrs. Zhang shook her head: "I have long been the wife of the King of Heaven. I have received his kindness, so I will naturally do my best for him. As for my natal family, whether it is alive or dead has nothing to do with me. If they can understand
In the overall situation, I have to protect my brother and his family's prosperity, but if they misjudge the situation and attempt to cause chaos again, then I can't save them."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Zhang's eyes flashed coldly: "I know that my brother is in private contact with Zhu Shangshu and the others, and seems to have some intention. I have already warned them, don't think that there will be any consequences if they really rebel against Qin.
Benefits. The Liang Kingdom has been destroyed for many years. Even under his rule, the people were in dire straits, which is why the country was destroyed. The King of Heaven has implemented benevolent policies in the north for many years, and the people's hearts are with him. Even if they lose in the front, they will at most return to the north.
Stabilize the internal affairs and will not give any chance to other careerists."
Murong Lan smiled slightly: "I didn't expect that Mrs. Zhang, as a woman, could see all these things so clearly. It's a pity that you are not a man, otherwise all these plans will be useless."
Mrs. Zhang shook her head: "If I were a man, I might not have the chance to get close to the King of Heaven. Miss Lan, I know very well what you are thinking and what you want to do, and I can't stop it, but I only hope that you can
Think of the common people in the world and do not initiate military disasters rashly. Once launched, the world will be in chaos and the north will be in chaos. The Eastern Jin Dynasty will take advantage of the opportunity to expedition to the north. At that time, whether it is your Murong family, Tuoba family, or our Zhang family, they will only end up doing things for others.
Got the wedding dress."
Murong Lan nodded: "Alan has written down Mrs. Zhang's criticism. It's just that we are all women. Such military and national affairs are decided by those who control the fate of our country. We can only listen to others and do what we should."
Something to do, something that must be done.”
Speaking of this, Murong Lan smiled slightly: "Just like Mrs. Zhang, you are now asserting that the King of Heaven will not succeed. But over the years, the King of Heaven has conquered east and west and destroyed countless countries. If you say that he can't win this time, I'm afraid those who believe it will
Not much. We, the Murong clan, have fought for him time and again in the past few years, destroyed cities and villages, and made countless great achievements. Now even you question our family's loyalty to our faces, so what else can I say?
, I can only speak with facts.”
Mrs. Zhang sighed softly: "Miss Lan, I regard you as my close sister, so I said this to you, but you are very wary of me. That's all. I know I can't convince you, so I can only tell you."
Buddha prayed, hoping that the king of heaven would have a better ending."
Having said this, she stood up gently, looked at Murong Lan, and said calmly: "The king has been busy with military matters these days, and his health is not very good. I hope Miss Lan can cooperate as much as possible tonight, and don't let the king go too far.
Tired, as for the future, let it go as it happens."
Murong Lan kowtowed to the ground expressionlessly: "Thank you, Mrs. Zhang, for your advice. I will take it upon myself to do so."
Mrs. Zhang moved lightly towards the outside of the tent. Her voice gradually faded away: "Come here, wait for Miss Murong to bathe and change clothes."
Murong Lan's face was buried on the ground for a long time, and her beautiful face was covered with tears. When in front of Mrs. Zhang, this strong girl forced a smile without leaking water. But now when she is alone, the sadness and indignation in her heart
Finally unable to contain herself, she murmured: "Liu Yu, will you think of me now?"
Half an hour later, Murong Lan was naked and wrapped in a felt blanket, lying in Fu Jian's sleeping tent. Every inch of her body had been carefully inspected by the maids and eunuchs just now.
Even the braid at that end was untied and scrutinized to prevent even an inch of sharp instrument from being stabbed.
As for bathing, the maids smeared various ointments on her body to prevent Fu Jian from being poisoned. Mrs. Zhang was so proficient in the stabbing and poisoning techniques used by security guards throughout the ages that Murong Lan even
They all secretly lamented that this woman had figured out all the assassination methods they could think of. It is no wonder that Fu Jian has never been assassinated in so many years.
The voices of the two female attendants sounded quietly at the tent door. Murong Lan's many years of training as a spy made her ears and eyes far different from ordinary people. Even if the two women murmured in a low voice, she could hear them clearly:
"Sister Honglian, why hasn't the King of Heaven come back today? He must have forgotten about this."
"How is it possible? The King of Heaven personally ordered Mrs. Zhang to be responsible for the examination of the Murong family. I heard that it was Duke Yangping who suggested that this woman might be an assassin."
