Chapter 15 Behind the Scenes Dealings

"I really admire Duke Mu's brilliant plan." Wu Yuanheng said, holding a wine cup with both hands. In the north of Maling City, there is a gentle slope against the city wall. On the slope, there are many tall acacia trees, a stream, and a large number of pavilions and pavilions. In the middle

There is also a square fortress building, which is the residence of Maling Gong Mu Sheng.

Mu Sheng knelt and sat across from him. He had snow-white beard and hair, a big beard, a big belly, and a face full of flesh.

"What a clever plan, it's just a plan to put people together." Mu Sheng did not raise his glass, "Wu boy, this time we can work together does not mean that our grudges are settled. If your daughter marries my grandson,

We can interact more in the future.

If you want to blame it, just blame him because he only knows how to fight."

Wu Yuanheng held up the wine cup in embarrassment and then took it back. The corners of his mouth twitched to suppress the anger in his heart. He took a sip without leaving a trace and nodded.

"That piece of land was originally picked up by the Wang family. They have enjoyed it for so many years and it's time to return it." Wu Yuanheng said.

"I don't know if he picked it up. I only know that Wang Lie is difficult to deal with. His son is a waste. As long as he sends a good hand, he can easily solve it." Mu Sheng said: "The key is that the king is also in the city, so he must be clean.

, that Wang Jian can remain silent, but Marquis Duyang is not that easy to deal with, do you have anyone over there?"

"I have ten howling knights, but if Ma Linggong forgives me, they can't take action." Wu Yuanheng refused.

"Hmph, now that things have happened, you still want to stand on the shore and escape unscathed?

Am I the one who betrayed his trust?" Mu Sheng's eyes were fixed on him like a knife blade, which made Wu Yuanheng break into cold sweat on his forehead, and his hands were shaking a little. After thinking twice, he still shook his head.

Seeing this, Mu Sheng had a sarcastic smile on his lips, "Then I will send my elite swordsman Li Sheng to let him die in the house without any proof, that useless son of Marquis Duyang. This step is the least difficult.

As for Wang Lie

Tomorrow everyone is going to accompany the monarch on a hunt. Someone will tamper with his drink, and then he will be killed by a wild beast. With the monarch present, our two families must insist on this matter. The two ministers and the monarch spoke together.

, no one dares to doubt this."

"Ma Linggong is brilliant!" Wu Yuanheng said excitedly, the joy in his expression could no longer be controlled.

"Hahahaha." Mu Sheng laughed, and then looked at Wu Yuanheng opposite with some disdain and took a sip: "Brilliant? It's just courage. I advise you to do less big things in the future.

I don't like your father, but you are so different from him." After saying that, he didn't care about the other party's ugly face, and stood up and left the table.

Wu Yuanheng had a dark face and bulging veins on his forehead, trying to maintain restraint.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is a young master, born with a noble status and a high position of power.

But it was not like that at home. From a young age, he had always heard others telling him how brave and heroic his father and his father's right-hand man, Du Yanghou, were.

He had overheard people comparing him to his father many times, and then came to conclusions such as "one generation is inferior to the other" and "a far cry from Li Shi", just like Mu Sheng insulted him just now!

He has listened to those words for almost half his life, and there has never been any praise, only disparagement shrouded in the shadow of his father!

I feel more and more uncomfortable day by day, depressed, and want to prove myself.

He has wanted to prove his abilities countless times and show that he can surpass his father in at least some aspects. He has never stopped since he was a child and wants to seize every opportunity.

But no one has ever cared about his efforts and achievements. They are still praising his father and Duyang Hou's merits and achievements, but they are still saying that he is still far behind!

This time Du Yanghou sent a request, and his father was ill in bed and unable to handle the affairs. He was the agent for everything. He finally saw a real opportunity!

Ever since he received the news, he understood that this was a dispute over military power and a tiger talisman, which was related to the competition for the next ruling minister. That's why the Mu family was so concerned about it, and the monarch would personally make the decision.

He was not prepared to handle this matter according to conventional rules, and simply stood up for Marquis Duyang.

From the day he got the news, he stayed up all night, thinking about how to win by surprise and how to do something big to gain recognition from his father and let the world know about his ability.

If we still follow the agreed rules, in the end, under the mediation of the monarch, either Duyang Marquis will obtain the Tiger Talisman military power, or Mu Shenggong will obtain the Tiger Talisman military power. Of course, they will have to make some concessions to the other party, and the Wu family will gain

It’s hard to say whether a reputation is good or bad. It depends on whose side you are on to understand it.

He doesn't want to do that, because then he won't be able to make a splash, then he won't be able to surpass his father and gain people's recognition!

That night, he remembered that his father once told him that the Wu family actually coveted the fertile Heyang Territory. He often dreamed of the sweet and juicy peaches in Heyang, the precious and fine peach wood, honey, fine wine, and corn.

, wheat flour, a land rich in oil.

Many years ago, the original mastermind of Heyang was executed instead, leaving a vacancy in Heyang. However, for that fertile land, the six ministers all formed a tacit understanding and balance. No one dared to take the lead in reaching out to Heyang and become the leader of Heyang.

The target of public criticism.

In the end, they had no choice but to adopt a compromise plan and let the Wang family who had made great achievements in war take over Heyang. Behind this, there was also the encouragement of the Wu family of Lishi, because Wang Lie was a subordinate of Lishi Gong in the army.

But in essence, the Wu family really wanted to get the Heyang leader directly. Letting Wang Lie take the position was a helpless compromise. At least it would be slightly better for the Wu family.

After thinking about this, he felt that he was a genius at that time. With the idea of ​​​​proving to his father and proving himself to the world, Wu Yuanheng also had a bold plan in mind.

Maybe he can use the Mu family and trade benefits with them to achieve the goal of taking back Heyang.

If the Mu family wants military power, give it to him, and if they want to compete for the minister of power, then help him. Anyway, my father is in the northwest border of Zhao country all year round, so the chance of being able to serve as the minister of power is not great, but all this cannot be given in vain.

He wanted to use this support in exchange for the help of the Mu family to eradicate the unsuspecting Wang Lie and his son, and then use the support of the Mu family to obtain the sacred land of Heyang that his father longed for, and fulfill his father's unfulfilled wish. In this way, his father would praise him and the world would be proud of him.

People will be impressed!

He brought his daughter with him because he wanted to marry her to a young man from the Mu family and stabilize the relationship between the two families through marriage to ensure that the two families could stand together in the future. Once something happened to Wang Lie and his heirs, they would not

If you are a closely related clan, your territory will need to be redistributed.

He also thought about the possibility that his daughter would have a difficult life after marrying her former enemy family, but he felt that it was worth sacrificing his daughter for the benefit of the family.

Thinking about his flawless plan, he couldn't help laughing. He also thought about how Wang Lie had been confiding in him during the past few days. He couldn't help but feel a sense of superiority. So what if others praised his heroic deeds? He was brave.

So what if he is good at fighting? Those great heroes who are praised by the ignorant people every day are still easily manipulated by him! Let him die badly!

As for Wang Lie’s good-for-nothing son, that fool can’t afford to make any trouble!
