Chapter 933: The Covenant


Shen Mu was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "My Yin Sect does have a shallow foundation in the officialdom, but the major families are not, if you want to chase and fight, let me ask the major families will agree?"

Yang Fan said to Cui Lin's stall: "Boru, you see, the Yin Sect is obviously coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, forcing me to cast a mouse trap, forcing the major families to be used by him, are you willing to be used by the Yin Sect?"

Gu Zhuting pursed the corners of her mouth tightly, wanting to laugh.

Yang Fan seemed to be aware, and when he raised his eyes slightly, he saw two deep pools waiting there, with affection and aggressive eyes, and he couldn't help but be gentle.

Cui Lin said to Shen Mu with a bitter face: "What Brother Shen wants is inevitably a little unrealistic, I hope you both can show some sincerity."

The more powerful the person, the more you have to learn to compromise.

People who are too greedy are always short-lived" Cui Lin said this, and sighed secretly in his heart.

The Seven Great Families were unable to take strong measures against the farce of the Manifestation and Hidden Sects, because of the compromise of the Succession Hall and the unbalanced opinions within the Succession Hall.

The Hidden Sect was developed almost by Shen Mu's own strength, and his people were all low-level people who could not enter the core of the family, so these people were undoubtedly loyal to Shen Mu, and the family could do limited intervention.

The family's control over Xianzong is stronger, but it is difficult to completely stop their actions, not to mention that as long as the Yinzong does not stop, can they order Xianzong not to fight back, and let the Yinzong attack This is not in the interests of the major families.

What's more, although the Seven Great Families are dissatisfied with such a fierce battle between the two Hidden Sects, the Seven Great Families are not monolithic, and behind the Hidden Sect are Longxi Li and Xingyang Zheng, who hope that the Hidden Sect will have the upper hand.

Behind Xianzong are Bo Ling Cui and Zhao Jun Li.

Originally, there was also a Fan Yang Lu clan, and the Lu clan occupied a dominant position among the three, but because of Jiang Gongzi's repeated mistakes, the Yin Sect grew stronger and stronger under his nose, until he was on an equal footing with Xianzong, and even defeated him, as a result, Jiang Gongzi was ousted from power, and in the past two years, the influence of the Lu family in Xianzong has deteriorated.

The current situation is that behind Yinzong stands Longxi Li Xingyang Zheng, and behind Xianzong stands Boling Cui and Zhaojun Li.

King Taiyuan and Qinghe Cui are actively intervening, but they also know that they have secretly supported a sect by the two major families, and it is difficult for them to intervene in it, and even if they can enter, they can only attach to the tails of other families.

Therefore, their wishful thinking is to reconcile the two sects of Xianyin and strive to promote the two sides to reach a balance, only the two sects of Xianyin are evenly matched, and the four major families behind the two sects of Xianyin are evenly matched, which can highlight their role, no matter which faction wants to make a difference, they must win over their support, so that they can intervene in it.

As for the Fan Yang Lu family, Jiang Gongzi was kicked out of power by the other six great families, and the interests of the Fan Yang Lu family were greatly damaged, and the Fan Yang Lu family now does not trust the other six families, they have not made contact with any of them now, and have been watching from the sidelines, obviously waiting for an appropriate time, waiting until the battle situation is clear before coming out to stand in line, or waiting until both sides are defeated and then come out to pick peaches.

Just imagine, how could such a group of family groups with their own scheming intentions and plans form a strong control over the Succession Hall This time, it was only because the two sects of Xianyin went too far that they stood up to restrain them, in fact, they didn't want the two sects of Xianyin to be harmonious at all.

The family standing behind the two sects of Xianyin hopes that their side will win, and the family that intends to intervene in it hopes that the two sects will continue to fight viciously, and it is best not only that the two sects of Xianyin will lose the battle, but the four major families standing behind them will also be greatly injured, so they will naturally become the leader.

It's just that what they hope is that in the arena they have demarcated, the two Manifest and Hidden Sects will fight to the death as two gladiators who will decide the victory or defeat by them, and they will not harm the spectators sitting in the stands, in this case, the role they can play can be imagined.

Yang Fan and Shen Mu were kind to Cui Lin's words, and immediately compromised.

Shen Mu said very simply: "Okay, then our Yin Sect will be more generous, take a step back, and in the future, the two Yin Sects can sit on an equal footing."

However, the salt and water business that your sutras monopolize must be taken out and shared with us. ” Yang Fan smiled and said: "Since Bo Ru mediates from it, I can't help but give this face, I agree that the two sects of Xianyin will be on an equal footing in the future, and the Longyou trade route controlled by your Yinzong should be completely open to us."

Whoever has vested interests is willing to give it up, even if the two of them are willing, the people under them are unwilling, even if the people under their hands are willing, the four great families standing behind them are also unwilling.

Among them, there are not only the results of their many years of operation, the transportation and sales channels that have been formed, and the relationship network that has taken generations of manpower and material resources to build, but also the inconvenient transportation in this era, and the fields they control are all dependent on the advantages of the region and controlled in the place where they are based.

Lying next to the couch, they can not allow others to sleep soundly, they can expand into new areas, but it is impossible to give up the interests that are already completely in their own hands.

So, Yang Fan and Shen Mu only acted as humble gentlemen for a moment, and then they became tense again.

Shen Mu sneered and threw out his trump card: "Erlang is sick and can't come out, presumably some things are not clear, and now the saint has already intended to move the capital, you should understand what it will mean for the capital of a country to move to Chang'an."

For the time being, you have the upper hand, but then."

Yang Fan shook his head and said disapprerovingly: "Brother Shen is not in the temple, and he doesn't know about the temple.

Even if the emperor made a decision right away and really wanted to take action, it would not be possible to make the trip without a year's effort.

And one year is enough time for us to beat you up."

Just under Cui Lin's nose, the dignified and hidden masters of the two sects seem to have become two small businessmen who must compete with each other, spitting and arguing over the gains and losses of every penny, or becoming envoys sent by two countries, fighting for every inch of territory.

But in Gu Zhuting's eyes, her man is very generous, only that Shen Mu is a child.

You see, Ah Lang said that he could use his influence as much as possible to prevent the imperial court from carrying out a more thorough purge of the Guannai Dao officialdom, how generous this was, and the price he asked for was only to let Shen Mu open up the Western Regions Trade Road.

Although Ah Lang also said that this matter has been troubled in the court, and it has attracted the attention of all forces in the court, so it is difficult to guarantee how much his efforts can play in the end and whether he can prevent the emperor from continuing to investigate, but doesn't this just show that Ah Lang is above board, otherwise why would Ah Lang say ugly things in his head, but Shen Mu has a small belly and chicken intestines, but he just refuses to agree.

In addition, Ah Lang said that as long as the Hidden Sect gave up attacking the forces of Hyeonjong all over Yancao, he would mobilize the officialdom power at his disposal and urge the imperial court to open the Maji River by dredging the Hebei Province.

This proposal was promoted by the family behind the scenes, and there had been an official report from the Ministry of Industry and the imperial court for a long time, but because of the depression after the war in Hebei Province and the huge cost of digging the river, the relevant ministries and departments have been prevaricating, and it seems that there is no hope of passing it at present.

Once opened, this river will go directly to the Bohai Sea, and will become an important river for drought irrigation and flood drainage, which will play a significant role in the large areas of fertile land along the river controlled by the Shandong family.

And after it is opened, the imperial court may also use it to transfer sea cao, and Ah Lang has said to a great extent that Xianzong will never interfere in the operation of this river.

But Shen Mu insisted on taking a share of the salt water controlled by Xianzong, which was obviously unreasonable.

Shen Mu and Yang Fan went toe-for-tat with each other, not giving an inch, like a pair of technical masters fighting to the death.

If you make a claim for interest in this area, I will immediately propose compensation measures on the other side; If you ask me for any restrictions, I will immediately have a motion to counter it.

Cui Lin, who was dizzy when he heard this, was completely desperate, he thought that it was impossible for the two sides to reach a settlement, and the matter could only be reported to the lords and asked them to come forward to mediate in person, otherwise But right here, the peaks and loops turned, and the two sides actually reached an agreement: The two sides have decided to put aside all controversial issues and stop all mutual attacks, because the current crisis has reached the point where it is out of control, and if it is allowed to develop, it will be detrimental to both sides.

Therefore, the two sides should work together to minimize the impact of the imperial court's thorough investigation of the Yanzhou corruption case on the power of the family in the Guanzhong officialdom.

Because Xianzong currently occupies the initiative in this matter and will play a greater role, so Yinzong must make some concessions, so as to appease the people on Xianzong's side, Yinzong promised Xianzong that he could return to Chang'an, and Yinzong must not use the huge power they have in Guanzhong officialdom and the people to set up any obstacles to the return of Xianzong's forces.

Of course, Yang Fan also reciprocated, saying that in the matter of opening the Maji River, he would mobilize the power of the Xianzong to drum up momentum for the Yinzong and promote the passage of this proposal by the imperial court.

However, this matter was originally the most beneficial to the Shandong family and the people of Hebei Province, and it actually had nothing to do with the Yin Sect.

In this regard, the ancient girl who helps her relatives and does not help thinks that this is because their family Ah Lang is very smart.

Shelving the dispute means that there will be another dispute one day, but at least the fire that is about to get out of control will be controlled, Cui Gongzi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and after the two sides finally established an agreement, Cui Lin left with Shen Mu very satisfied.

"Xiaoting, help me up" Yang Fan didn't send off the guests, and waited for the guests to leave before saying a word to Gu Zhuting.

Gu Zhuting heard him scream, her heart was sweet, this poor and cute little woman finally got the love she thought was pure luxury, and she longed to become a puppy who could wag her tail, as long as she liked her master.

The sentence "Xiaoting" made her feel like drinking a jar of honey.
