Dongfang Xiujie held the jade pendant high so that everyone could see it clearly.

"This is the jade pendant of the lord of the city, and it was specially given to me as a token of proof. Now, you should believe it. ”

There was silence.

After a long time, he was still the original general, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said with difficulty: "This Cold Star Jade Pendant, it can't be fake, right?" ”

This partial general is a general loyal to Li Yongchang, although many confidential things have not been known, but he also has his own judgment in his heart. According to what Dongfang Xiujie said, not to mention the troops he brought out, the appointment arrangement of General Jia is equivalent to the army

It's all entrusted to him. This person is not Li Yongchang's confidant, and he is not usually very important, and if he is promoted so high all of a sudden, if he has a different heart, the consequences will be unimaginable.

There are not a few fools who can be promoted to the middle level and above of the army, and there are few fools present, and the vast majority of them are biased towards the city lord, and they quickly think of the crux of the problem like the partial general, and they have questioned it.

"That's right, this may just be a jade pendant with a similar appearance."

"That's it!"

"Although you keep saying that it is an order from the city lord, this order does not sound like a decision made by the lord."

“……”

"If I'm not mistaken, General Dongfang should have been sent by the city lord to a foreign place to carry out a mission, but the lord is going to the Guan Mansion today, how could you encounter it?"

Another general raised a new suspicion, and people with the same knowledge woke up one after another.

yes, it's a bit unusual for this guy to appear here.

Dongfang Xiujie's mental ability is really not very good, seeing the surging emotions of the group, the composure he made could not be supported for a long time, and he was flustered and at a loss.

When the young man beside him saw it, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This Dongfang Xiujie usually talks rhetorically, as if there is nothing in the world that he can't do. How do you know that when things are coming, the performance is so unbearable, and when people ask for it, you immediately panicked.

He couldn't say it, he could only stand up.

"Generals, please be quiet. Whether the matter is true or false, it must be laid out and explained clearly before it can be distinguished. Such a noisy and noisy will not only not help solve the problem and damage the reputation of everyone, but if it is finally confirmed that the situation is not false, it will delay the military situation and miss the major affairs of the city lord. ”

His voice was clear, and the generals present couldn't help but slowly quiet down when they heard it.

One sentence stabilized the scene, and the young people were quite satisfied with the effect. glanced at Dongfang Xiujie on the side, and the latter cast a look of admiration and admiration at him.

"As for why the Dongfang Biao General appeared here, this is very simple, because he received a secret order from the city lord, so he turned back. What I have just said is only part of the order. ”

Someone asked, "What is the order?" ”

The young man said calmly, "I'm sorry, but this is secret military information and cannot be disclosed to everyone. ”

The generals were speechless.

The other party was holding Li Yongchang's Hanxing jade pendant as a token in his hand, and whether it was the order of the city lord or not was not all up to them. Want to ask for the details of the command to find fault loopholes. But a simple "secret mission" from the other party is enough to block all doubts back.

Although many generals suspected that there was something wrong with it and wanted to debunk it, they couldn't find evidence.

Suddenly, a Lang general stretched out his hand and pointed at the young man and exclaimed.

"Liu Yanghui, you are Liu Yanghui! You are the son of the head of the Liu family, how did you appear here? How could the city lord's secret order be known to you? ”

The young man had a collar raised high, and he wore a hat on purpose. Although in order to avoid suspicion, the face is not completely covered, but if it is not a familiar person, it may not be recognized at once.

Seeing that he was recognized, Liu Yanghui simply stopped hiding, took off his hat, and revealed his true face.

"That's right, I'm Liu Yanghui. However, I don't understand the general's words. My father and the city lord are life and death brothers who fight the country together, and when they encounter an emergency military situation, my Liu family participates in it, and fights side by side with the city lord as before, what is there to be strange about? ”

"Uh......" Nalang will be speechless and unable to refute.

Liu Yanghui looked secretly proud, this is a fatal loophole for Li Yongchang.

The four major families in Gaozhou City are not in harmony with each other, which is not a secret to people with a little bit of energy. Li Yongchang has always been lucky, hoping to peacefully resolve the dispute with Liu Yulong and others, and does not want each other to end up on the battlefield.

This illusion of peace has been maintained for many years, and the generals in the army understand Li Yongchang's thoughts, and naturally they are not willing to upset the fragile balance.

Liu Yulong's father and son made good use of this loophole, under the premise that the generals in the army could not contact Li Yongchang, even if they were openly and openly, as long as they did not do anything obviously unfavorable to Li Yongchang, they were still one of the four major families in Gaozhou City, and the generals not only could not stop it, but also maintained a minimum of respect.

By the time they find out something is wrong, it's too late to stop it.

Na Lang was dumbfounded, and Liu Yanghui decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue.

"As for whether this jade pendant is real, it is not difficult to verify it. Find a few generals who everyone can trust and are familiar with the cold star jade pendant to take a closer look, isn't everything clear? ”

This is reasonable, and I can't fault anything.

Soon, several generals were elected to verify the authenticity of the jade pendant.

Liu Yanghui is calm and full of confidence. Other links may still be found faulty, the only thing that is cold star jade pendant is fake, it really can't be true, and it is definitely not afraid of others picking on it.

This is exactly the case, one of the generals who has always been steady put the jade pendant back into Dongfang Xiujie's hands, turned around and reluctantly announced in public: "The jade pendant is real, it is indeed the cold star jade pendant of adults." ”

The generals looked at each other, and they all saw helplessness and panic in the eyes of their companions.

What the hell is going on, many people don't understand.

The general who opposed it the most fiercely was still unconvinced.

"The jade pendant is just a dead thing, it doesn't speak to explain. God knows how you managed to get your hands on the castle lord's jade pendant......"

"Enough!"

A loud shout rang out from the crowd, interrupting the general's words that were just right. But General Jia, who has always been calm and calm, and obviously occupies an important role in this matter.

"You question this and that, you don't want to carry out the orders of the group leader anyway, do you?"

The general stalks his neck, and does not retreat because the other party's position is higher than his own.

"Whether it was the order of the city lord or not, it is still two words."

General Jia sneered: "But you don't have any evidence to prove that this is not an order from the city lord, right?" ”

The partial generals were silent, and the rest of the generals loyal to Li Yongchang were also silent.

"After all, the Dongfang general is still holding the city lord's portable jade pendant as a token, which is enough to win people's trust. And you are just relying on your own unwarranted speculation to resist and disobey orders. Isn't it obvious which side of the truth is? If you want to question Brother Dongfang, I would like to ask, what is your intention in obstructing and delaying the emergency military situation like this! ”

The general's face turned red and he was speechless.

He has an upright temperament, does what he sees right, and has never been afraid of offending people. In terms of military rank, he is not as good as General Jia, but he is not afraid of him at all. Although Dongfang Xiujie was holding a jade pendant, the orders conveyed were full of doubts, and he was also not afraid to question them. But these two

combined, he felt a little unbearable.

It's not that he doesn't have the guts, it's just that he lacks a reason to object, and in the face of double pressure, if he continues to resist, he seems to be unreasonable.

The general who announced the true and steady nature of the jade pendant sighed and shook his head. When my friends saw it, they couldn't help complaining.

"It's all you, if you say that the jade pendant is fake, isn't there nothing?"

"Am I the kind of person who reverses black and white?" The steady general glared at him, and then his tone softened.

"To be honest, I can't figure out if it's really an adult's order. If he really gave the order, I said that this lie would have lost my personal reputation, and it would be a small matter to delay the military situation of the adult, and it would be impossible to redeem death. ”

His friend sighed and said no more.

Most of the people present who were loyal to Li Yongchang remained silent, but in fact, they also had the same mentality. Although the order is full of doubts, no one can be sure that it must be false. In this case, how dare you stand up and fight with General Jia.

In the final analysis, it is because of the absence of the middle and high-ranking members of the army, there is one less person who understands the inside situation, accurately judges the situation, and firmly leads everyone to resist.

Seeing that there was no more opposition, General Jia was about to burn the three fires of his new official at the moment, and the power among the generals was firmly in his own hands.

"Everybody......

The draft had already been typed, and the passionate speech had just begun, when it was interrupted by an unexpected uninvited guest.

"Wait a minute."

The voice was not loud, nor was it serious or majestic, but among the generals who were loyal to the city lord's lineage, it was almost equivalent to the sound of heaven.

"It's General Yang! General Yang is back! ”

You don't have to look back, listen to the familiar voice, everyone knows that it is General Yang, the third person in the army who is only ranked after General Zhao.

It's so timely!

At this moment, the generals of Li Yongchang's family all had the same idea in their hearts.
