Talkativeness is not a problem. People who talk a lot are not insidious and are easier to get along with. At most, they are a little annoying. What he worries about is that Fei Xuan is too angry and young. Such people are often very paranoid. If they get into trouble, it will be difficult to pull him back.
"I'm just talking and neglecting Brother Wu. I'll go get someone to serve tea." Fei Xuan stood up and walked out.
"Stop serving tea, let's serve food. I haven't eaten yet. By the way, I have a friend outside. I'll call him in." Wu Dongfang also stood up. Seeing that he couldn't leave tonight in this posture, We can't let the prince freeze outside.
"Okay, okay, I'll go with you to greet him." Fei Xuan went out with Wu Dongfang.
"This person is the incarnation of a different kind. He came to the door arbitrarily. Brother Fei, please don't blame me." Wu Dongfang said.
"How dare you. How dare you." Fei Xuan waved his hands repeatedly.
When he arrived at the door, Wu Dongfang looked around and raised his hand to wave to the prince who was sitting in the corner. The prince came over and Wu Dongfang introduced the two of them to each other.
Fei Xuan ordered his servants to prepare a banquet and accompanied the two of them back to the main hall.
Back in the main hall, Fei Xuan's words were all about the situation, and Wu Dongfang introduced him again, "Your Majesty is my life and death friend, and he is also my adviser and strategist. He is not an outsider."
When Fei Lu heard this, his worries disappeared. He stood up and greeted him again. After he was done, he asked the prince to talk about the matter. There were outsiders present. The prince behaved like Zhuge Liang. He spoke in a measured, elegant and polite manner. His conversation with Fei Xuan was very speculative. .
Soon the food was served. Since the prince had made a start, he had to continue to pretend. He had not eaten for two meals and was so hungry that he could not eat more. After taking a few bites, he put down his chopsticks and spoke to Fei Xuan who was waiting next to him. Continuing the conversation after the preface, Wu Dongfang guarded a table of food by himself, choosing what he liked to eat.
After dinner, he held a tea cup and listened to the two talking. Fei Xuan was very smart and analyzed the situation very well. He believed that if the Tu tribe destroyed the Shui tribe, it would be the Wood tribe's turn next. Instead of sitting back and waiting for death, it would be better to stand in line earlier and unite with the Fire tribe. He supported the Water Tribe against the Earth Tribe, but what made him depressed was that he encountered resistance from three aspects. One was that the Water Tribe had no intention of asking him for help, and the other was that the Fire Tribe seemed to have no intention of helping the Water Tribe. There is also pressure from within the clan.
The elders of the clan generally disapprove of aiding the Shui Tribe. In the opinion of these old coffin growers, taking the initiative to help the Shui Tribe will satisfy the population and give the Tu Tribe an excuse to use troops against the Mu Tribe. Fei Xuan, on the other hand, believed that taking the initiative was tantamount to a demonstration, and indirectly told the Tu tribe that the Mu tribe was not to be trifled with, and that he could also become allies with the Shui tribe through this matter, and unite to seek long-term peace and stability. To put it bluntly, the essence of the difference is that Fei Xuan wants to gain respect through fighting, while the elders of the Mu clan hope to gain stability by conquering people with virtue.
The time to take office was too short, and Fei Xuan could not force the elders to do anything. He clearly foreseeed the danger but could not do anything. This made him very helpless, angry and angry.
It is not difficult to see from Fei Xuan's words that he is very ambitious, but his ambition is different from the two people's ambitions. He wants to maintain the current situation of four tribes surrounding Kyushu, and do his best to help others while preserving himself. Si Shaokang rehabilitated the country. To put it simply, he was still very orthodox at heart, and sending troops must be based on helping Si Shaokang.
The prince did not show any objection to this. He was cunning and would not reveal his true thoughts to others casually.
In the end, Fei Xuan expressed his thoughts. He hoped that the two of them could act as intermediaries to persuade the Shui Tribe to ask for help from the Wood Tribe. Only when the Shui Tribe officially asked for help would he have an excuse to reopen the meeting. If the Shui Tribe didn't speak up, he would have no reason to refute the conservatives. In his words, he is a teacher who has no name. To put it bluntly, he doesn't want to stick to someone's face and cool his butt.
The prince did not tell him that Wu Dongfang had gone to the Shui Tribe, and was disappointed. Instead, he happily agreed. Wu Dongfang understood why the prince did this. He did this in the hope of earning favors from the two of them and also letting them go. Find a reasonable excuse to watch the battle on the battlefield.
Fei Xuan's grasp of speed was quite accurate. He did not put Wu Dongfang aside while talking. In fact, he had always wanted to talk to Wu Dongfang. It was Wu Dongfang who deliberately transferred the right to speak to the prince. It was easier to listen than to talk. Some.
Fei Xuan was talking about talking all night long, and he actually had a long talk all night long until dawn.
While Fei Xuan went out to arrange breakfast, Wu Dongfang tilted his head and said to the prince, "What do you think of this man?"
"If you can tolerate his criticism, you can use it." The prince said.
"Talk like a human being." Wu Dongfang cursed. The reason why he didn't want to talk to Fei Xuan was largely due to Fei Xuan's pretentious talk. After talking to Fei Xuan all night, the prince was also affected.
The prince coughed twice, "This person is good, but he is very stubborn and will accept death. If you ask him to do something, he will probably ask why and won't go if he doesn't like it. He will definitely make you angry in the future. "
"It's normal, capable people have weird tempers." Wu Dongfang said.
At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and the prince whispered, "Wait until I try him again."
After Fei Xuan came back, he continued to chat with the prince. The prince went in circles, first talking about Fei Mu, then Fei Lu, and finally the Minghong Dao.
Fei Xuan hesitated for a moment, "The Minghong Sword is at my house."
"Have you found Fei Lu?" the prince asked.
"No," Fei Xuan shook his head, "The night before I took over the throne, someone sent back the Minghong Sword."
Wu Dongfang suddenly realized that no wonder Fei Xuan didn't pursue Fei Lu after taking the throne for so long. It turned out that Fei Lu took the initiative to send back the Mu Clan's magic weapon. In modern terms, this was a return of stolen goods and had the nature of surrendering. Fei Xuan was probably a big deal. A wave of leniency was given.
Fei Lu is undoubtedly a bad person, but bad people are not all fools as the world thinks. Bad people are smart but have bad moral character. Those who are bad and stupid are garbage.
"He is old and old..."
"Can I borrow the Minghong Sword for a look?" The prince cleverly interrupted Fei Xuan. What Fei Xuan wanted to say was undoubtedly the reasons and reasons for letting Fei Lu go, but the two of them were outsiders and knew that these were obviously inappropriate.
"Why not take a look." Fei Xuan readily agreed, stood up and walked out, "Wait a moment, you two."
After Fei Xuan left, Wu Dongfang and the prince looked at each other. Fei Xuan undoubtedly passed the test. He did not just regard the two as friends verbally, but Fei Xuan was also very smart. He blocked the escape route first. What's wrong? The implication is that it's okay to check it out, but not borrow it.
Fei Xuan came back soon, holding a stone box in his hand. After entering, he closed the palace door.
Fei Xuan placed the stone box on the wooden table between Wu Dongfang and the prince's seats, opened the lid and said, "Please."
The prince may have seen this thing before. He took a glance and picked up the tea cup. Wu Dongfang lowered his head and looked at the stone box. He saw that inside the box was a strange piece of dark red metal, about one meter long and one foot wide.
This thing was very crudely polished, and it might not have been polished in the first place. It was only in the shape of a three-quarter knife. I knew it was a knife, but I didn't know that it was scrap iron solidified by the remaining molten iron in the steel-making furnace.
Wu Dongfang looked back at Fei Xuan, who nodded.
With Fei Xuan's consent, Wu Dongfang picked up the Minghong Sword. What he didn't expect was that although the Minghong Sword was only about one meter, it was extremely heavy, weighing thirty or forty kilograms.
Seeing Wu Dongfang's doubts, the prince said from the side, "Minghong Dao and Xuanyuan Sword were made from the same furnace, and they are made of Nine Heavens Black Iron like Sunset Bow, Cloud Chasing Whip, and Black Ice Halberd. This thing has a strong aura of violence and is not a piece of wood." People who are benevolent to the clan are not enough to control the restraints.”
"Ashamed, ashamed." Fei Xuan hurriedly humbled himself.
Seeing that Fei Xuan was very nervous, Wu Dongfang didn't hold it, looked at it flatly and put it back. He opened the wooden box, took out the sunset bow and handed it to Fei Xuan, "This is the sunset bow of the Jin clan. Please Fei Xuan." Brother has seen it."
At this moment, the Minghong Sword made a slight buzzing sound, and the Sunset Bow made the same buzzing sound. They were both made of metal, and the sound they made was caused by vibration.
After a brief buzz, the two weapons calmed down. The two buzzes were not hostile. They didn't sound like a demonstration, but more like two fellow villagers meeting and saying hello.
He has never seen other kinds of magic weapons, but the color of the Minghong Dao is very similar to that of the Sunset Bow. These kinds of magic weapons are likely to come from the same place.
Fei Xuan had never seen a sunset bow before, so he curiously took it and looked at it, but he did not try to shoot it. After seeing it, he returned it to Wu Dongfang. This was the opponent's pet peeve, and he was frightened to hold it.
After viewing it, Fei Xuan immediately sent the Minghong Dao back. When he came back, he came back with the handyman who delivered the meal. After breakfast, Wu Dongfang stood up and left.
Fei Xuan tried his best to persuade her to stay. The two of them promised to rush to the Shui Tribe as soon as possible. Fei Xuan then let him go and escorted him out of the house personally. He refused to go back after he was escorted out of the mansion and insisted on sending him out of the city.
Fei Xuan is the Qinglong Celestial Master. He kneels down wherever he goes. The common people are not stupid and can guess the identity of him and the prince based on the rumors. In this way, everyone knows that the Qinglong Celestial Master and the White Tiger Celestial Master have a good relationship, and this may also be the case. It was exactly what Fei Xuan wanted. Fei Xuan had not yet succeeded to the throne and had insufficient prestige. However, although he suffered a defeat, he made a name for himself. Being with him would help improve Fei Xuan's own prestige. The most important thing is that he could show his support to Fei Xuan. The people of the Mu tribe want to convey a message: I am also a hardliner, not someone who is afraid of trouble.
After seeing through Fei Xuan's intentions, Wu Dongfang walked out of the city with him and said goodbye reluctantly when they arrived outside the city.
The prince used teleportation, Wu Dongfang used earth escape, and returned to his base, which is the northwest border.
"I just winked at you, why didn't you let me give him the Qi-tonifying elixir?" Wu Dongfang asked. At this time, the two of them no longer needed to wink and wink. A seemingly casual look could communicate secretly.
"The time has not come." The prince shook his head and said.
"He only has the cultivation level of Taichu." Wu Dongfang took off his shoes and got on the kang. Ming Yue was not in the room, and the basin was gone. He should have gone to wash clothes.
"It has nothing to do with cultivation. This person is very smart and has his own ideas, which is difficult to control." The prince also jumped on the kang. No one could bear to sit there all night.
"We are looking for like-minded friends, not slaves who want to flatter others." Wu Dongfang said. He was in a good mood. Overall, the trip to the Mu Clan was very successful.
"We'll talk about it later. Just those three melons and two dates, don't rush to give them away," the prince yawned, "I'm so sleepy, I'll take a nap first."
"I'm sleepy too," Wu Dongfang pulled the quilt, "It's much colder here than the Wood Clan."
"Don't pull, give me some."
