Chapter 59: A Tree that Stands Out in the Forest Will Be Destroyed by the Wind

After Mu Changtian finished his greetings, he said with a little embarrassment: "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that you would be the one who saved the Mu Mansion in the end.

On the way to Beijun, Mu Changtian and his companions had thought that the mysterious prince Liang Zong and his companions were talking about was the Beiwang, after all, Beijun was the Beiwang's fiefdom.

But the thought that "the mysterious prince was the Beiwang" only flashed through their minds, and they quickly denied it in their hearts.

However, the person who stood in front of them in the end was the Beiwang himself.

This shocked them immensely.

They really couldn't believe that the rumored Beiwang, who was ignorant and licentious, was hiding so deeply!

Just from the fact that the Beiwang could take out the Dahuandan and had such a huge force in his hands, if he participated in the fight for the throne, it would be a big deal. The prince is definitely not his opponent.

At this time, Mu Changtian and his sons had a question in their hearts at the same time. Why did the Northern King hide his power when he had such a huge force?

If he participated in the fight for the throne, with the power in his hands and the support of the Jiangnan family, then the position in the capital city would most likely be his.

Now that the Northern King has been driven to Beijun, if he still wants the position in the capital city, he can only raise an army in the end.

But Mu Changtian and others also saw the conditions of Beijun. It would be difficult to defeat the elite soldiers of Daxia if they raised an army in Beijun.

Even if they won, Daxia would be devastated, and the Northern King would be left with another mess.

At this time, Lu Chen said: "You all sit down, don't stand."

At this point, Lu Chen entered the private room, and the brocade guards at the door then closed the door.

After Lu Chen entered the private room, Mu Changtian asked directly: "Prince, you have such a huge force in your hands, why did you hide your power in the capital city? "

Lu Chen said calmly: "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind."

"My father is now in his prime. If he knew that I have such a huge force in my hands, what do you think he would do, father-in-law?"

Hearing this, Mu Changtian and the other two reacted instantly.

As a prince, the King of the North has such a huge force in his hands, and he has his own people in the army. If Emperor Xia knew about it, he would definitely be suspicious of him.

You are a prince, and when your father is still in his prime, you are vigorously cultivating your own power and winning over the soldiers of the army. What do you want to do?

However, Mu Changtian still didn't understand. Even if the King of the North has a huge force in his hands, he doesn't need to pretend to be a waste. He just needs to not reveal his trump card.

Although he was confused, Mu Changtian I don't plan to ask any more.

After knowing that the King of the North is a man with deep scheming, Mu Changtian no longer regards the King of the North as a political novice. He now only thinks that the King of the North must have thought carefully before doing this.

The King of the North must have a bigger plan!

Although the King of the North is also the blood of Emperor Xia, because the King of the North saved the Mu Mansion, and Mu Zixuan is the Queen of the King of the North, Mu Changtian has no psychological grudge against Lu Chen.

Mu Changtian said at this time: "The King of the North saved our Mu Mansion. If the King of the North needs me in the future, I, Mu Changtian, will definitely die for him!"

Mu Changtian's words are equivalent to directly declaring his loyalty to Lu Chen. Hearing what Mu Changtian said, Mu Xingping and Mu Jingwu also saluted and said: "We will also follow the King of the North until death!"

Lu Chen smiled and said: "We are all family, so don't say such things. "

Speaking of this, Lu Chen looked at Mu Changtian and asked: "Father-in-law, there is actually a question that has always confused me, but I can't find anyone to ask. Just in time for you to come, I want to ask you for advice."

When Lu Chen talks to his own people, he will not call himself "this king". Using "I" can bring people closer.

However, Mu Changtian is a relatively conservative person. Although Lu Chen is his son-in-law, he is still a prince. In Mu Changtian's eyes, Lu Chen's status as a prince is greater than that of a son-in-law. Mu Changtian still said respectfully: "Prince, please speak."

Lu Chen then asked: "It stands to reason that if my father wants to get rid of the family, he must need a sharp sword. There is no doubt that you, father-in-law, are the most suitable, but why..."

Lu Chen did not continue to speak, after all, this involves Mu Changtian's sad things.

Mu Changtian instantly understood the question that Lu Chen wanted to ask. He sighed and replied: "Prince, His Majesty has never trusted me, or in his eyes, I am not that sharp sword. Even if it is a sharp sword, it can only be the sharp sword of the family. "

Mu Changtian originally wanted to call the Emperor Xia by his name, but thinking that the King of the North was the son of the Emperor Xia, it was not good to call the Emperor Xia by his name in front of him, so he finally called the Emperor Xia "Your Majesty".

At this time, Mu Changtian thought of something, so he continued: "And I suspect that Your Majesty already has a sharper sword in his hand."

After hearing what Mu Changtian said, Lu Chen fell into deep thought.

After a while, Lu Chen said: "The Mu Mansion is gone. I have prepared a new house for you, but you may need to change your surname in the future."

Mu Changtian immediately said: "Thank you, King of the North."

It's good to be able to survive. As for changing the surname, Mu Changtian doesn't care so much. As long as they wait for the death of the Emperor Xia, their surnames can be changed back.

At this time, Mu Changtian tentatively asked: "Prince, what are your plans after you come to Beijun?"

In Mu Changtian's view, the King of the North has such a powerful force in his hands, it is impossible for him to be willing to be an idle prince in Beijun. Mu Changtian wants to seize this opportunity.

As long as the Northern King ascends the throne and becomes the new Xia Emperor, the Mu Mansion will still be able to achieve its former glory.

Although the Mu family fell to this state because of Emperor Xia, Mu Changtian did not have much hatred for Lu Chen, the son of Emperor Xia, because this was a political struggle and the interests of his son and father were different.

In most dynasties, old emperors exiled their old ministers, and then the new emperor reused the exile of the old ministers. This was an opportunity for the new emperor to show kindness. Most of the exiled old ministers would not hate the new emperor after returning to the court, but would instead be grateful to the new emperor. emperor.

Hearing Mu Changtian's question, Lu Chen's lips raised slightly, revealing a smile.

"I don't have any plans yet."

this……

Mu Changtian was stunned.

He didn't believe what Lu Chen said.

King Bei has been hiding in the capital for so many years, and has accumulated such a powerful force in his hands. If he says that King Bei has no plan at all, no one will believe him.

Lu Chen knew that Mu Changtian didn't believe it, so he continued: "The time has not come yet, no matter how busy you are, it will be in vain."

Mu Changtian realized instantly that King Bei was waiting for a suitable opportunity!

He said, how could such a scheming person as Bei Wang settle down in a corner?

Mu Changtian immediately said: "Your Majesty, if there is ever a need for me in the future, I, Mu Changtian, will definitely fight to the death!"

Lu Chen said: "Not later, I need my father-in-law to do me a favor now."

Mu Changtian immediately said: "Your Majesty, please speak."

Lu Chen said: "I plan to train a cavalry force in Beijun, but there are no suitable generals. I wonder if you have any ideas, father-in-law?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Mu Changtian felt a little excited. He didn't expect that he would be able to play a role just after coming to Beijun. He quickly stood up and saluted Lu Chen and said: "I will train this cavalry as soon as possible. Live up to the prince’s expectations!”

Lu Chen nodded, then stood up and said, "Okay, let's come here today. I will ask the princess to visit you in your new home later."

Having said this, Lu Chen walked towards the door.

Mu Changtian and his son saluted again and said: "Best farewell to the prince!"
