My father did say this.
I remember that in order to gain the throne, King Ming did not hesitate to kill his own brothers and take away their wives and concubines.
Even his father said that if King Ming had been born a hundred years earlier, Western Fan and Jin would definitely not be in the same situation as they are now.
"Your father is an upright hero. If it weren't for our different positions, I think your father and I would definitely be sworn friends."
The military strength of the Western Fan was not just a little worse than that of the Jin Dynasty.
Although there have been constant conflicts between the two sides over the years, Dajin has won more and lost less.
But Lin Muzhi was still very afraid of King Ming. Although the two countries were allies, Xi Fan had long been disloyal.
However, Lin Mengya's face did not show it at all.
The pretty face has a sweet smile and rosy cheeks, which is very cute.
"My father said the same thing. In my heart, I admire you very much."
After the pleasantries were over, Prince Ming changed the topic and looked at Lin Mengya with a bit of sharp eyes.
"You're a girl that suits my taste, so as an uncle, I only want to ask you one question: Did you kill my son Hu Lunan?"
According to the rules of Xifan, blood debts must be repaid with blood.
Hu Lunan struck first, and Lin Mengya counterattacked later.
Being treated like this, one can only blame him for not being good at his studies.
However, killing someone is another matter.
Lin Mengya stood up from her seat and looked directly into King Ming's eyes, with a slightly solemn look on her face.
"I admit that I did injure Hu Lunan. But I did not kill him. If I wanted to kill someone, I would never leave him alive."
In such a situation, honesty is the most basic condition for negotiation.
Lin Mengya's cheerfulness was obviously appreciated by Prince Ming.
After thinking for a moment, King Ming said:
"You didn't kill the person, so everything is easy to explain. Tell me, what is the purpose of your coming today?"
The two of them opened the skylight and talked openly, so there was less twists and turns.
Lin Mengya smiled slightly, but did not directly mention her purpose.
"I want to know how much leverage the prince has given the prince so that you can help him at all costs."
Lin Mengya's words made Prince Ming slightly stunned.
A light flashed from his eyes, followed by a bit of caution.
"you mean-"
"Your Majesty, let's not speak secretly. Hu Lunan is not your biological son, so in fact, you didn't take his death to heart, did you?"
Lin Mengya's words instantly put a bit of surprise on Prince Ming's face.
Not many people knew about this matter, so how did this girl know about it
"My lord, you don't have to be surprised. As the saying goes, a dragon begets a dragon, and a phoenix begets a phoenix. How could your son be such a shameless person?"
In fact, Lin Mengya analyzed it from the perspective of genetics. No matter from which aspect, Hu Lunan and Ming Wang were completely different.
Moreover, both Prince Ming and Hu Tianbei deliberately indulged Hu Lunan.
What father would intentionally do this
What's more, Lin Mengya also discovered that from the incident until now, no one, whether it was Prince Ming or Hu Tianbei, was truly sad.
"Haha, you are really good at talking with your little mouth. Yes, Lunan is indeed not my child. To be precise, he is my eldest brother's posthumous son."
Most of the eldest brother's adult sons were secretly killed by him.
Only this guy escaped because he was in his mother's belly.
However, it has now turned into a cold corpse. It is ridiculous. Hu Lunan thought that he could take charge of Xifan until his death.
"Actually, I don't even know that the king knows it. The prince is not the best partner to work with. He is a capricious villain with no faith at all."
The prince's reputation is not good, and Prince Ming's vision is very vicious. It is absolutely clear that the prince is not the best collaborator.
"Little girl from the Lin family, you are very smart."
Prince Ming had a smile on his face again and looked at Lin Mengya with admiration.
Compared to the mediocre prince, the woman in front of him is indeed a more suitable candidate.
It's just a matter of seeing if she can come up with stronger conditions.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your reward. I only came here on the order of my Prince Yu. No matter how tempting the Prince's conditions are, I'm afraid he won't give up the country. Therefore, if the Prince wants to negotiate terms, we will be the best ones." Best choice.”
Lin Mengya's words aroused a slight wave of emotion in King Ming's heart.
Changing collaborators is not a big deal in his opinion. Anyway, it is right for him to choose wherever he can get the greatest benefit.
"What you girl said is correct, but I still have to consider this matter."
Lin Mengya had already anticipated this situation, so she just smiled and did not force him to make a decision now.
"This matter can be brought to an end now. I have one more thing to ask Prince Ming."
Lin Mengya put on her black cloak and already wanted to turn around and leave.
"As long as you can give me an explanation for Lu Nan's matter, I will not pursue it any further."
In fact, it was the prince who had been clamoring for severe punishment and wanted to give Prince Ming a so-called explanation.
"Okay, I understand."
Now the situation is very clear, Hu Lunan is just a bargaining chip, how could King Ming give up all the benefits he got because of his death.
After hurriedly leaving Prince Ming's tent, Lin Mengya was not surprised to see Long Tianyu outside.
The slender figure is wrapped in black clothes. The wind blew up the corners of his clothes fiercely.
In the clear moonlight, the handsome face exudes endless cold brilliance.
With such a man, no woman in the world would be able to resist his charm.
Lin Mengya put on her hat and walked towards Long Tianyu step by step.
But she didn't expect that another figure would get in front of her.
Presumably he wanted to look sad in front of outsiders.
Princess Mingyue put on a long white dress, and her black hair was pulled into a simple bun on top of her head, with only a white velvet flower.
His eyes were as clear as water, and there was a bit of heartbreaking sadness on his beautiful face.
Lin Mengya suddenly stopped and stood behind the two people.
"It's so late, I didn't expect the prince to have rested yet."
The voice was gentle and melodious, and it was particularly attractive at this night.
Long Tianyu moved his eyes back, but did not fall on the beauty in front of him.
"Um."
Without any hesitation, Long Tianyu moved lightly and walked to Lin Mengya.
"Are you done talking?"
With a voice so soft that it seemed a bit unlike him, he pulled Lin Mengya's cloak and naturally put his arms around Lin Mengya's shoulders.
"We're done talking, let's go back."
Princess Mingyue's expression changed, and finally she forced a smile.
"It turns out that Her Royal Highness Princess Yu is also here. Mingyue is really far away."
In fact, Mingyue knew it from the moment they arrived at the camp.
The reason why he came out now is because Long Tianyu was in Hu Tianbei's tent just now.
After finally dressing up, he wanted to have a beautiful encounter with Long Tianyu, but he didn't expect that his eyes would only fall on Lin Mengya.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not a stingy person. It's just that it's not a good thing to covet something that doesn't belong to you."
This was said clearly to Mingyue.
No matter how charming Long Tianyu is, not everyone can stick to him.
Princess Mingyue's face instantly became a little ugly. With tears in his eyes, he looked at Long Tianyu with tears in his eyes.
But why, instead of being angry, Long Tianyu just walked past her without looking away
Didn't the eldest brother say that although Princess Yu is beautiful, she is too strong
As long as she pretends to be weak, will she be able to please King Yu
Why? Why didn't he even look at himself
Seeing the two people disappear into the darkness, Mingyue still stood there unwillingly.
"Don't think about it, he is not someone you can control."
A leisurely voice sounded, and Hu Tianbei emerged from his tent.
Seeing his sister standing there unwillingly, I felt a little regretful.
Mingyue's appearance and materials are of the highest quality, and no one in Xifan can match her.
It's a pity that Long Tianyu already has Lin Mengya who can outshine Mingyue in every aspect.
"Brother, I won't give in! I just won't give in!"
Next to Hu Tianbei, Mingyue was like a spoiled child.
Stomping her feet, she pulled Hu Tianbei's sleeves and kept shaking, just like when she was a child, she wanted Hu Tianbei's bay-red horse.
"If you are not willing to give in, just fight for it yourself. However, I warn you, don't offend Lin Mengya, or you may lose your life."
The royal family of Xifan is far inferior to that of Jin Dynasty, at least on the surface there is still warmth.
The harsh environment has created a strong public sentiment. Even royal children must be left outside overnight after birth.
If you can survive it, you will have the qualifications to survive.
If unfortunately he dies or is eaten by a wild animal, this is an uncontrollable fate.
"Xiao Ming? Do you think I am that good-for-nothing Hu Lunan?"
He also sneered at Hu Lunan. Besides, that loser had been harassing him continuously since three years ago.
If he hadn't been unlucky enough to be killed early, then she would have taken action sooner or later.
"Lu Nan is dead. It's true that he was unlucky. But he deserved it for being provoked by others."
Hu Tianbei looked at Ming Yue with bright eyes. His eyes that understood everything made Ming Yue feel a little guilty.
"What are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who has no brains?"
Turning around, Ming Yue's eyes revealed a cave of guilty emotions.
Hu Tianbei sighed and said quietly:
"Don't regard the prince as your real supporter."
