"Come here, I'll give you the money for digging Buddhist caves and Buddha statues, you don't have to fight, you just stay in Wei State as a pledge..."
For a while, I don't know how many people wanted to say this to Juqu Muqian.
Juqu Mujian was the eldest of the surviving sons of Meng Xun, the lord of Northern Liang, and Bodhi was young. If he really intended to stay in the Northern Wei as a pledge, he would have given up the throne. A young child inheriting the throne is better than Ju. A young man like Qu Mujian who can literate and martial arts is better.
Speaking of Juqu Muqianneng ranking the longest, I have to thank Helianding. Juqu Mujian's eldest brother died ten years ago, and his second brother Juqu Xingguo was established as the heir of six years ago. He was captured by Xiqin when he attacked Xiqin at the beginning of this year. Beiliang wanted to redeem it, but Xiqin The lord refused.
The lord of the country is also interesting. He captured others, not only did he not kill him, but he also married him a princess, and made the second prince a concubine. Xiqin, rescued the prince, but Helianding took over Xiqin a few years earlier than in history and slaughtered the clan of Xiqin. Before the identity of the prince was revealed, Helianding beheaded him.
If Juqu Xingguo were there, Juqu Mujian would not be able to sit in that position no matter how wise and wise, because Juqu Zhengde and Juqu Xingguo were both descended by Empress Meng, and from their names it can be seen that Meng Xun was right. their expectations.
Juqu Mujian frequently showed his affection to Helian Pearl, and many people thought to themselves that there might be a reason why her brother killed Juqu Xingguo, the prince of Beiliang, a few months ago.
Helianding destroyed Western Qin and changed the political situation of several countries, among which Beiliang was the most volatile. The two sons that Meng Xun had worked so hard to cultivate all died of misfortune. The third prince did not grow up as a prince. Empress Meng's youngest son, Bodhi, was too young, but Meng Xun was already exhausted. The bloody storm of seizing reserves.
Kumoti was startled by Juqu Mujian's solemnity, and quickly began to think about the benefits of Juqu Mujian's staying as a hostage to Wei.
He is the eldest son. Apart from him, the remaining princes of Beiliang are either young or not well-known. Only Juqu Muqian, the prefect of Dunhuang, has some talents. Keeping him means that Beiliang will not be able to achieve success within ten years. what climate.
But on the other hand, if His Majesty wanted to destroy Bei Liang, even killing Juqu Mu Qian would be useless. What's scary about Beiliang is the wealth it has accumulated over the years in the Western Regions and its strong soldiers, rather than a capable monarch.
Not to mention that the Northern Wei Dynasty is now the suzerain state, and the Liang state has become a subsidiary vassal state. When Meng Xun dies, it may become "Liangzhou", and there is no need for hostages at all.
Even if Mu Jian was left as a hostage, after Bodhi came to power, would he still care about the life and death of this half-brother
If you stay, you will abandon your son. If you don't stay, maybe he will fight with other brothers when he returns to China, weakening the strength of the country. And if he stayed, Wei Guo might really support Juqu Mujian in order to keep Beiliang chaotic for a while, let him marry the princess, and support him to return to the country to seize the throne.
Whether he stayed or not, he was still undefeated.
The more Kumoti thought about it, the more he felt that this Juqu Muqian had a deep sense of government and far-sightedness, and was almost unfathomable among his peers.
To win the support of Wei State with himself as a hostage, and finally kill it back in a glorious way, and now he has obtained the support of Wei State and successfully ascended the throne and then obediently loyal to Wei State, two choices are placed in front of them, no matter which one they choose, Wei countries to support.
Su He Jun and many disciples from aristocratic families who were present thought deeply and guessed the key point, and were deeply jealous of this handsome and strong prince.
If this person was established as a prince from a young age and taught by Juqu Mengxun himself, it would be normal to have such insight and vision. The scary thing is that this prince was only known as a "Li Xian corporal" before, and he never showed political specialness, nor did he show a better appearance than the later prince Juqu Xingguo in leading the army to fight and personal force. .
Juqu Mujian was the prefect of Dunhuang, and he was supposed to lead the army to go out to the Western Qin Dynasty. However, because it was unanimously believed that he did not have the son Xingguo who was good at fighting and had rich experience, he sent Juqu Xingguo to Xingguo. Qin set up an ambush and captured him alive in one fell swoop, but he did not return to Beiliang until his death.
If this person is not afraid of the strength of the two brothers since childhood, or if there is an expert behind him, no matter which point, Kumoti is full of fear.
"These three princes are so powerful..." Su Hejun let out a sigh when he heard his lucky head. "Such a headshot made King Yingchuan dare not fight."
Once you volunteer as a hostage, you will suddenly have unprecedented popularity and respect in the country. Before Juqu Mujian, he was just a little prince, the prefect of Dunhuang. His son Xingguo died at the hands of Helianding. He had no money in the country. If he can be allowed to return to the country, or if something happened to the domestic Bodhisattva who died, Bei Liang will invite him back to be the king of Bei Liang even if he asks.
"Is it because it's not appropriate to be a hostage?"
Although He Mulan did not have strong political literacy, she was good at reasoning. The hostage issue is related to the relationship between the two countries, and it is normal for Kumoti to dare not make his own decisions.
She only saw the fur, but with her background and experience, she could see that the fur was much better than many aristocratic children who were shouting "The lord keeps him!" and "Fight quickly".
At least if it was her, her choice was the same as Kumoti.
I saw this light/bare upper body King Yingchuan clenched his eyebrows tightly, and said with a displeased face: "This king does not know what Prince Mujian means. My great Wei has never asked other countries to keep hostages, and neither do we You will use this to control the internal affairs of other countries. You use this as a lottery, even if I win, Your Majesty will not agree, isn't this fooling me?"
With a light-hearted word, he was unwilling to let Juqu Mujian stay as a hostage, and said that he was the demeanor of a great country in the state of Wei.
And since such a lottery is not established, naturally it cannot be used as a bet for a battle.
Juqu Muqian originally thought that he would use this reason, whether Kumoti agreed or not, it would be difficult to ride a tiger. If he wins the competition, he can add countless Buddha statues to Dunhuang and gain further support from Buddhism; if he loses, Tuoba Tao probably won't leave him, and he's not afraid of leaving him. .
Who knew that this young prince looked two years younger than him, and he was already so good at this kind of thing, he blocked his straight punches lightly, and now he can't step down.
"I didn't expect King Yingchuan to look down on him..."
Juqu Mu Qian shook his head.
"Since the lord thinks that I am not qualified to compete with you, why don't you make fun of my sincerity?"
"It's about national affairs, how can you easily make a bet? Prince Mujian made such a hasty decision, does Prince Beiliang know that you are willing to shake the national system for the sake of a hundred Buddha statues? You and I are generally clan children, and every move represents our own. The country and the clan should think twice about everything."
Kumoti asked his attendant to bring his clothes.
"I originally thought that you were a hero, and you have repeatedly defeated many good sons and daughters of my big Wei. You have an itchy skill, so I want to go out and compete with you, in order to test your martial arts. Today is a grand event in Meiyuan, and so many good sons and daughters gathered together. The purpose of the meeting is to find the other half of my body and mind, not to discuss state affairs..."
He looked disappointed.
"I originally thought that you should not be the kind of person who is utilitarian, but now it seems that it is indeed my fault that you simply want to compete with you."
Kumoti sneered.
"I treat you with sincerity, but you treat me with calculation. Now this king really feels that you are not worthy of my end and you."
Cornering is a game of the Hu people to express intimacy and respect. In the old days of the Huns, if several tribes had disputes and did not want to hurt each other's harmony, they often used the warriors' horns in the tribe to decide the winner and decide the final result.
Jiao Dian will not fight for life and death like a "martial arts competition". Hu people compete with their upper bodies to show that they have no weapons and no long things, and they all rely on their own ability to compete.
Therefore, judging is actually a game of "friendship" among the Hu people. If you are willing to fight with each other, it is to express your goodwill that you want to be friends with others. No matter whether you win or lose, you can get the respect of the other party in the end.
Cuomoti said the words "you are not worth my end", which is simply a slap in the face.
Kumoti has always shown people with a calm and steady face. He has been mature since childhood, so this prince never expected him to be so sarcastic, especially the sentence "King Beiliang knows that you are willing to shake the national system for the sake of a hundred Buddha statues", Just hit the nail on the head.
If this reputation spreads back, it is hoped that there will be no more, and I am afraid it will arouse his father's disgust.
Juqu Mujian's face became more and more ugly, but Kumoti's expression became more and more contemptuous. Everyone could see the tension between the two and the strange atmosphere, and there was silence for a while.
Some clever people, such as several Langtou and other disciples of other great clans, began to recall the ins and outs, and after careful scrutiny, they were able to guess what Juqu Muqian thought.
Just these few points are enough to make them secretly guard against this prince.
Those who are not of our race must have different hearts, and this is true everywhere.
Juqu Muqian is not a person to be dismissed easily, Kumoti showed contempt, but he smiled gently.
"My lord has a high position and is also the head coach of a party. I'm just a little prince in a cool place, and I'm really not qualified. I just don't know, who does the lord think is qualified to fight me on your behalf?"
He still wanted to embarrass Kumoti, never mentioning "not fighting", but saying "fight for you and me", that is, he boasted that his force was amazing and could win again.
While putting on his clothes slowly, Kumoti looked in the direction of Su Hejun, his eyes met He Mulan, and his eyes were full of inquiries.
He Mulan received Kumoti's meaning, and then thought of the losses Helian Mingzhu had suffered before, so many Xianbei sons were either injured or defeated, and the prince faintly regarded the meeting in the plum garden as an opportunity to gain fame. Give birth to a trace of pride.
No matter what conspiracy he is conspiracy, she really doesn't know!
But in this era, even if the conspiracy is powerful, in the end it still depends on whose army is stronger, whose national strength is stronger, whose hero is more ruthless, and whose fist is bigger!
Nothing to say, just beat it!
Kumoti's martial arts skills are not as good as her, so what is she afraid of!
Thinking of this, He Mulan nodded to Kumoti.
There was a smile on the corner of Kumoti's mouth, as if he was satisfied with her decision. He put on his belt in the disappointed eyes of the ladies, pointed to Juqu Muqian and pointed to He Mulan in the distance.
"This person is my former personal soldier. Although he has risen up now, according to the rules of the Xianbei people, I can still be regarded as half of his master. Since you still want to compete with me, I will order him to end for me. It's just that He has already gone out of the house, what kind of luck do you want, talk to him, don't do more calculations."
Juqu Muqian looked at the direction his finger was pointing, and was even more surprised when he saw that it was the famous Hua Mulan.
This Hua Mulan was once a subordinate of Kumoti? Isn't that someone from the lineage of King Yingchuan
Everyone in the world said that Tuoba Tao and Tuoba Ti are not biological brothers, but they are better than biological brothers, and it is true!
Where in the world is there a person with an older brother who is willing to let his younger brother use it as a confidant!
Shouldn't a fierce general like Hua Mulan be kept by himself? There is something wrong with this Kumoti!
He Mulan heard that Kumoti was in command, walked out from Su Hejun's side without being humble or arrogant, and walked all the way to Kumoti to salute.
She bowed and said with a smile, "I would like to serve General Ying Yang."
Kumoti's general title is "Ying Yang", just like her general flag title is "Tiger Power". Now that he is the Great General of Montenegro, He Mulan salutes with his military title, naturally admitting that he used to be his personal soldier.
Juqu Mu Qian once again felt the surging strength in his body, knowing that the strength he had spent before had finally recovered, but he only felt that there was no one in the world that he couldn't fall, and suddenly laughed arrogantly.
"Okay okay, Huwei General Hua Mulan is now famous all over the world. It is my honor to be able to fight with you. Since that's the case..."
He looked at Helian Pearl again.
From the moment He Mulan stepped out to prepare to end, Helian Mingzhu regained her previously reserved and noble expression, and she was no longer nervous when facing his gaze, but instead nodded politely to him.
"Princess Pearl, what King Yingchuan said is right, if I take national affairs as the lucky draw, I will offend the kindness of the merciful His Majesty to hold the Meiyuan Meeting. I fell in love with you at first sight. If I win this time, can I get A strand of your hair as a souvenir?"
He Mulan touched her nose uncomfortably, feeling as if she had become the kind of villain who hinders men from pursuing women.
How much respect does Helian Pearl show to He Mulan? Even though He Mulan said that she treated her like a younger sister, she couldn't have any hatred in her heart, but instead resented that she was not pure in her thoughts towards him, thinking about Tuoba Tao and Hua Mulan, feeling guilty.
Now that Juqu Muqian is aggressive, she is not angry but laughing.
"Prince Mujian really has a deep affection for me. If I don't agree, you will probably continue to compete like this today. Well, if you really win, I will give you all your hair. …”
It was the first time she said such resolute words, as if she would rather be a nun than accept his love.
After saying this, she sneered again amid the amazed expressions of many girls and men.
"But I don't think you can get my hair."
In his words, he actually trusted He Mulan so much!
Juqu Mujian hopes that Helian Mingzhu will show trust and friendship with Mulan! The deeper the better!
He was ecstatic in his heart, but had a sad look on his face.
"Is the princess actually interested in General Hua? Yes, I am..."
"Prince doesn't have to use words to guess me and General Hua. My elder brother Pingyuan's family was slaughtered and beheaded all over the house. General Hua helped my whole family to take care of the funeral. Such a great favor is worth repaying with my life, not to mention the hair!"
Helian Mingzhu tried his best to imitate Tuoba Tao's aura when he faced the ministers. With a flick of the sleeves of his Chinese clothes, he straightened his spine, and his face showed Tuoba Tao's unique arrogance. He clasped his hands in front of him.
"Prince Hugh wants to talk more, let's hurry up and try!"
Just now, there were many women who looked down on her and thought she was hypocritical and cowardly, and they suddenly had a good impression of this woman who reciprocates her kindness, and even felt that Helian Mingzhu's expression was very majestic, just like...
It's just like…
It's like Juqu Mujian is already a defeated general of the enemy country, and sooner or later, he will end up in a terrible end!
Juqu Mujian was so beautiful in the past, but now he has been rubbed and beaten by such a group of people, and he has fallen from the sky into the mud. In addition, He Mulan's debt is "if you fight or not, fight quickly" With a beating expression, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and stood in the circle, letting anger hit his limbs and bones, feeling the surging power filling his body again...
He is undefeated!
He has the help of the Buddha!
Seeing that this man was finally about to fight, He Mulan couldn't help shaking her head.
"Prince Mujian, you just talked about your lucky head, I haven't said mine yet."
Juqu Muqian would never have made such a mistake at first, but now he was starting to get upset, so he ignored such a thing. When He Mulan mentioned it, his already arched back suddenly stiffened. , the sound of laughter all around also penetrated into his ears, making his temples aching.
"What do you want? A good horse? A beauty?"
Juqu Mu Qian straightened up again, gritted his teeth and asked.
"Ah, I don't dare. I'm a layman, and I came from a cold family, and my family is not very wealthy. Now I see that I want to be an official in Pingcheng, but I don't even have a place to stay. You are a prince. If I win, I don't want to. Otherwise, you can just buy me a house in Pingcheng."
He Mulan smiled, bent down, and saw several people in the crowd leaning towards the first row, she couldn't help but smile.
Juqu Muqian thought her smile was mocking him, but he was quite shrewd, he laughed when he heard such a request, and continued to provoke: "I have heard that Wei has no salary, and some people are incompetent, and even have stomachs. I can’t fill it up, I thought it was a joke, but it turned out to be true. The general is a hero, the princess is a peerless beauty, and I changed my hair from the house, so I’m still making money! That’s all!”
Immediately, he shook his chest muscles and regained his strength.
He Mulan also bent down, but Juqu Muqian showed his anger for the first time: "You don't even take off half of your clothes?"
In order to show that there is no weapon, the ancient ritual of Jiaoda itself is to take off his clothes.
What? Still undressing
Several people were so frightened that they rushed to the front and shouted.
"When did our fire chief take off his clothes? There has never been a warrior who could make our fire chief take off his clothes and fight!"
"Where's the kid from!"
"This Mulan is crazy!"
"Good spirit!"
People who didn't know what to do thought that someone was going to boost Mulan's morale and destroy Prince Mujian's majesty. They also cheered and cheered for He Mulan.
He Mulan originally wanted to use the reason of "I have diarrhea as soon as I show my stomach", but she saw that several people were already shouting nervously, and she used such a reason to offend people, she couldn't help crying and laughing. .
She seems to have seen that Juqu Muqian on the opposite side is full of anger and is about to make a big move!
"Okay... there is no such warrior is there..."
Juqu Mu Qian gritted his teeth, bent down again, and made a preparation for the horns.
'No one can take off your clothes, so let me tear your clothes off in public! I see if you dare to be so arrogant next time! '
Juqu Mujian's divine power became more and more full, and the anger and the sudden majestic power made his heart even more tyrannical. If he didn't know that he couldn't hurt people here, I'm afraid he would have torn up He Mulan's body. , not her clothes anymore.
For He Mulan, Juqu Mujian's anger was not as strong as the murderous aura she felt on the battlefield. She also stretched out her hands immediately. After the gong sounded, she quickly reached out and twisted his arm. !
As soon as He Mulan approached Juqu Mujian, one of the followers brought by Juqu Mujian, a man from the Western Regions wearing a fur hat, let out a "Huh", then his expression changed greatly, and he exclaimed, "Not good. !"
I saw that He Mulan stretched out his hand and just put it on Juqu Mujian's arm, the latter showed a very painful look. He Mulan knew that the other party was strong and used a lot of strength. He originally thought that Juqu Mujian would also want to They used all their strength to fight against her, the two of them had to be deadlocked for a while, but the result...
Juqu Muqian, whose arm was pinched and was about to fall over his shoulder, was like a broken doll. He Mulan threw him out of the field with a great force and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
Contrary to Juqu Mu Qian's easy defeat, He Mulan felt the warmth that suddenly filled her whole body from above her arms, and a sense of happiness that filled her whole body after she had regained it, made her almost cry.
She didn't know why she felt complete, but she only felt that something must have happened when she fought Juqu Muqian just now, which brought her great benefits.
This is a kind of premonition, like a gift from God that has always been cautious and humble to her, given to her in an unexpected way.
Juqu Muqian's greatness was seen by everyone before, whether it was the simple surrender of a few wolf heads or the embarrassment of Lu Pi's efforts to deal with it for a quarter of an hour but could not break it, all of them showed that Juqu Muqian A terrifying warrior with amazing strength.
But now...
But now...
Just a trick! Hua Mulan threw him out in a parabola!
Those who had fought against him before, those who knew that his strength was terrifying, suddenly gave Hua Mulan an inexplicable look of horror. Many Xianbei nobles screamed on the spot!
He Mulan was still indulging in the satisfaction of his body's soaring strength, but suddenly someone grabbed his hands and feet. He just wanted to shake his hands to shake people away, but found that it was Dugu Nuo and a few wolves, and immediately spoke inexplicably. : "You want to... ah!"
A group of Xianbei men shouted and lifted He Mulan up and threw it into the sky!
"General Hua is mighty!"
"Great Wei is invincible!"
"My Xianbei man is number one in the world!"
"Yo!"
The North Park went crazy in an instant, and everyone in the North Park went crazy! How powerful Juqu Mujian was before, how can he make He Mulan a wedding dress now!
The entire Beiyuan fell into the "Mulan time", and the joyful laughter and thunderous laughter made all Beiliang people bow their heads in shame. When the envoys of other countries saw this scene, they couldn't help looking at each other in a frenzy, as if they didn't know how to resist this powerful country with such a powerful general.
Everyone went crazy, only the middle-aged man from the Western Regions brought by Prince Mujian gently moved to Juqu Mujian's side, helped him up from the ground, and pushed him to revitalize the palace.
Being shaken away by such a great force, and at the moment when the forces converged, Juqu Muqian was slapped back and thrown with great force, and already suffered a serious internal injury.
"The Great Mantra Tan Wu Prophecy... cough... why... why... you said that as long as it doesn't exceed half an hour, there will be no mistakes..."
Juqu Muqian reluctantly grabbed the old man's hand, coughing up blood and asking in a sad voice.
"Amitabha. There is no divine power in this world that is obtained out of thin air, it must be lost from other places, and it can only be borrowed from you here. What I use for you is the Buddhist supernatural power 'the power of the king', which is to cut off the wandering between heaven and man. The power that came out, originally thought that it would be good to borrow a little to make you win, but who would have thought that such a great power could not have come out of thin air..."
Juqu Mujian did not understand.
"I don't understand... Since it's all borrowed, why is it suddenly gone! Does Hua Mulan know any magic? He's powerful, isn't he magic?"
The old man shook his head.
"Hey, if there is a cause, there will be an effect. This is God's will. This power was originally a thing without a master, but when I approached Hua Mulan, it suddenly skyrocketed. I just opened my eyes and saw that this borrowed power was actually lost by the flower benefactor. things. You borrowed things from others, and when the two of them touch each other, it is like a hundred rivers meeting the sea, and after all, they still flow to him…”
Every time the old man said a word, Juqu Mu Qian's face became paler.
"I went against the will of God to help you. If you see it, you can accept it. Maybe it will pass. But if you are not greedy enough, the Buddha will punish you with a reward. This thing has already drifted away. Hua Mulan It can’t be found, but it returns to the original body at this time, and it is impossible to separate it out. You are attacked by the 'power of the king', and within three years, you will become a state of powerlessness..."
"puff!"
Juqu Mu Qian gushed blood from his chest and fainted.
