Chapter 237
"What are you going to do?" A faint smile appeared in the corner of Zhan Feifei's eyes, and he looked at the calm and calm Wing King.
"Not how." Xi Chao replied without pressure, and there was no joy or anger in his voice.
Zhan Junfei's eyes were like torches, and he was about to see the clues from the deep pupils, but unfortunately it backfired, and the Wing King even had calm eyes.
"If Yan Guo joins forces with Wei Guo, it will be difficult for Mu Guo to have a chance of winning." The reason why Zhan Junfei said this was not to intend to scare the Wing King, but to affirm the national strength of the Yan Kingdom.
"Oh, how many layers are there to join forces?" Xi Chao was still unhurried, and there was no trace of anxiety.
"Five floors or more." For the emperor, who doesn't want to fight for the world, and is willing to play with profitable things, Zhan Feiqian consciously felt that it was impossible for the Yan royal family to refuse the delicious food sent to the door.
"How many troops are there, and who is the leader?" Xichao's voice has not changed at all, as before.
"I'm afraid I can't answer that." Zhan Jun Fei smiled, "After all, this is my hometown, and just as you can't tolerate traitors in your eyes, I won't confide in me about becoming an opponent for the sake of the covenant." โ
"Oh, yes." Xi Chao smiled and said, "It is clearly stated in the covenant that the news related to the defense of the country is unconditionally informed, and now Wei Yan is not divided between each other, it is still a matter of defending the country, and the price paid for unilaterally tearing up the covenant is also involved in the covenant, I am afraid it is not you alone or the person behind it to pay for it." โ
"You!" Zhan Junfei was shocked, and hurriedly took the covenant presented by Ah Wu, and studied it word by word, his face a little pale. I can't wait to slam the covenant in my hand into the face of the Winged King.
"Cunning and cunning, it is a trap set between the lines!" Zhan Junfei was put on the side by the Wing King, and he was unhappy in his heart. There is coldness in the eyes, it is a great shame!
"I reminded me at the beginning that I had to look carefully before signing, and I didn't force it in the slightest." You and I are willing, otherwise Xi Chao would not have the patience to play with Zhan Junfei.
"Good, good, good. It's because I'm not as good as others. Zhan Junfei gritted his teeth and said in an evil voice, "You are even more treacherous than expected!" "It's all to blame for being negligent in guarding against and letting the Winged King take advantage of the loophole.
"Aren't you afraid that I will spread the word about your cooperation?" Zhan Junfei didn't believe that the Winged King could be as stable as Mount Tai, once the news of the Winged King's collusion with other countries spread. The Winged King immediately fell from the invincible prince from high to the abyss and became the target of everyone.
"Your threat has been written down by this king." Xi Chao's voice was cold, and there was no panic in his expression, "Do you want to tear your face now?" "Glad to be there.
Zhan Xiaofei's face turned pale. The steaming anger shriveled down like a punctured bubble. His momentum was sharply reduced, and he leaned back in his chair, looking at the Wing King with blazing eyes.
"A gentleman is hard to chase after a gentleman." Although Zhan Junfei can't guess what the wing king has behind him is not afraid of being exposed, there is one thing he won't do, that is, treacherous Jianghu people pay attention to every word and must be practiced, as the old saying goes, sooner or later, it will be returned, although the days of licking blood from the knife edge are over, some rules can not be forgotten, and this is based on the unshakable at all.
"It's been a pleasure to work with." Xichao's words are not salty or light, and the meaning is enough to show off his face.
"The number of Yan troops is undecided. No more than 100,000. "After all, Yan Guo has traveled a long way to the border of Mu State, even if he uses the road to defend the country, he will still be tired. The upper limit of sending troops will be controlled to a certain range, which will preserve the national strength and show the sincerity of the alliance to the greatest extent, Zhan Junfei thought.
"Who might be the head coach of Yan Guo?" The speculation of the Xichao Dynasty in terms of numbers coincides with what Zhan Junfei said, the key lies in the commander, if the commander who leads the troops to fight is incapable, there are many people, and there is no need to worry about a group of rabble.
"It may be the second prince Yan Hongyi, this person has been in the army for many years, although he has not been on the battlefield upright, he is indeed a real doer, and some veterans who have been fighting in the wind, frost, snow and rain are quite important, and they are the best candidates for generals." As for the deputy general, the candidate can only be an experienced veteran, in order to make up for the lack of the coach's performance, with the intention of achieving a generation of famous generals, these Zhan Junfei deliberately avoided mentioning it, thinking that the wing king would not know.
"Young talent." Xi Chao narrowed his eyes and whispered, it's not easy to deal with.
"Who is the main and who is the secondary?" There is no commander in the Patriotic Army, and the Yan Army has a greater chance of going its own way, but it is still impossible to keep the Wei Guo having the trick of using Yan Guo as a touchstone, and it is very likely that one will turn against each other if it is not good, if it is so, it will be good to save yourself from doing it, if it is not for the Xi Dynasty not mind contributing to this situation.
"It has not yet been determined, if Wei Guo is sincere, he will hand over the initiative to Yan State, and Yan State will come first." It is not yet known whether there is evil intentions hidden under the seemingly friendly appearance, Zhan Junfei will not go anywhere in his own judgment to defend the country, and it is very likely to push Yan Guo to come out and pick up the cheap behind his back.
Xi Chao already knew about it, so he said: "If there is new news, remember to notify, and I will leave when the hour is not early." โ
"Why are you so calm!" Zhan Junfei really couldn't see where the Wing King got the confidence, and he didn't show the slightest urgency, and his doubts increased greatly, and he subconsciously asked.
"None of the words mentioned are definitive, and it is not worth putting too much effort into the possibility of ups and downs." Xi Chao has his own judgment, before things are formed, there are more means to reverse, and excess tension will only mess up.
"I don't like ambiguous answers." The Xi Dynasty is warning Zhan Xiaofei not to play tricks in the future.
Zhan Junfei looked helpless, didn't he just lose a little temper and beat him to death with a stick, how dare he now, the Wing King looked unfathomable, in case he stepped on the Wing King's minefield, it was estimated that he was not far from death.
Mu Guo, "Is that really the case?" There was a hint of uncertainty in his voice.
"It's true, this matter has a lot to do." His voice was full of excitement.
"Well, I'll bother you tomorrow morning." Suppress your excitement and be careful to tell you that your plan cannot be lost.
The next morning, the official stood up and played, "Your Majesty, please escort the Yiwang back to Beijing and dismiss him for investigation." โ
As soon as these words came out, the hall was full of horror, and some courtiers who didn't know why looked at the officials suspiciously, how could they be involved in the Wing King?
"Reason." Mu Jinming wants to see how the officials slander the Xi Dynasty.
"The Wing King went to the border to kill innocents indiscriminately, and in order to sit firmly on the position of the general, he did not hesitate to wash the generals' whole family in blood, just to eradicate dissidents. The viciousness of the behavior is outrageous. โ
"King Wing killed the courtiers without reporting, ignored the king's law and disregarded human life, and has not yet pleaded guilty. Deliberately deceived the Holy Hearing unscrupulously. "The officials are impassioned about the crimes of shaking off the Wing King, "Such a great rebel should be undertaken, and there is a clear state in the court and army." โ
The other courtiers listened to it and turned many corners in their hearts, and the officials of the Great Prince's faction couldn't sit still, and they wanted to borrow the Wing King's reason to find fault.
It's no wonder that this is the case. The Wing King has been going to the border for a long time, even if there should be an excerpt in the distance, so far the cabinet has not seen a letter from the border pass. Good and bad are completely dark, and only a few people who have close contacts with some people at the border pass can detect part of the news, and the Wing King has violated the law, and it is necessary for the enemy to report from time to time at the current border pass. As for the Wing King, why didn't he do it, I'm afraid only the person concerned knows.
The courtiers guessed. It is estimated that it is because she has not stood firm in the army, originally, it is an exception for a girl to have the courage to kill, and there is really no hope for anything else.
When it comes to killing the general's family, what he did was a bit excessive, because the emperor didn't mention a word, and the courtiers didn't dare to raise it rashly even if they knew. This is not a realistic version of the blinded Sacred Hearing, and there is no other way than to pretend not to know about the decisions made repeatedly by those who have a brain.
Whether the emperor knew it or not, the courtiers did not dare to guess. It stands to reason that the emperor knows all about things and learned from the newspaper that not a single letter has been delivered at the border pass for so long, not to mention that even the soldiers who sent the military information have not arrived, which cannot but cause many questions, suspecting that something happened at the border pass, and the wing king, who is the commander-in-chief, is not allowed to report it.
"How can there be a careless disregard for human life?" Mu Jin didn't know what to do and continued to ask.
"The generals led by He Min were innocently killed, and even harmed the old and young in the family, this kind of extermination of humanity is really arrogant, in order to prevent the Wing King from killing innocents again and shaking the morale of the army, I implore the emperor to escort him back to Beijing and punish him severely." The words were sonorous and powerful, pointing to the unforgivable sin of the Winged King, and just listening to it made people shudder.
"The Wing King invited himself to go to the border pass and wore the sword given by the emperor, and he can exercise the right to cut first and then play, even if I am not allowed to interfere too much." Mu Jin clearly showed a look of distress and intended to confuse the courtiers, feeling that he had been wary of the prestige of the Wing King, and he was not allowed to act because of the previous emperor's gift.
Slightly inducing words are heard in the ears of the courtiers is another layer of meaning, the officials of the great prince's faction are even more happy to descend from the sky, the emperor does not trust the wing king is more in line with his intentions, and the Ouyang family will definitely have a dislike for the emperor if he loses his wings, and provokes a stirring up to make the emperor and the prime minister's mansion easily break the emperor's reliance, without the support of the prime minister's mansion, the emperor who has nothing will become a fish and meat on the chopping board to be slaughtered, and the eldest prince can regain his own throne, and a good fortune will be on their side.
"The sword given by the emperor is to punish the traitorous ministers, the king of the wings is abusing his power this time, please take back the imperial sword, and no longer let the sword be stained with the blood of innocent people, heaven is intolerable!" The official's affectionate words are called a true feeling, and he can't wait to die for the emperor's liver and brain.
"It's hard to convince the public with one-sided words." Mu Jinming showed that he couldn't bear it, "The fold presented by the Wing King may be on the way." โ
"Your Majesty, this matter must not be delayed any longer, otherwise the courtiers who are loyal to the Lord will die without turning a blind eye!" The official knelt down and grabbed the ground with his head, "I beg the emperor to order the king to return to Beijing immediately for trial." โ
"We're at war right now, so I'm afraid there's something wrong with that." Mu Jinming saw clearly the purpose of the eldest prince's faction, and repeatedly wanted to pull the Xi Dynasty off the horse, and did not hesitate to point to the deer as a horse's clever tongue and play a good show.
"The Wing King's cruelty to Zhongliang is already a great crime, how can he take on a heavy responsibility." The official did not relent, "Please ask the emperor to give priority to the society of the country and severely punish those who despise the king's law, so as to set an example." โ
Oh, Mu Jinming sneered, if he didn't grasp the Wing King, he didn't care about the Jiangshan Sheji, what a deep trap, and dared to even calculate himself as the emperor, which meant that he was an incompetent faint monarch who didn't care about the life and death of loyal ministers and good generals, okay, very good!
Mu Jinming's face instantly turned cold and he was angry, "You are insinuating me!" "If such a traitor kills one by one according to the words of the Xi Dynasty, he will not tolerate it.
"The minister doesn't dare, the minister's loyalty can be seen in the sun and the moon." The official was so frightened that he was too excited to say the wrong thing just now, and hurriedly said that he had no such intention.
"And where did you learn about this?" Mu Jinming directly uncovered the loopholes in the officials' words.
"What the Winged King did could not be concealed from everyone, and the caravans coming and going to the border pass heard about it and spread it." The officials who had already planned to deal with it replied without impatience.
"Why is this the Winged King. Make yourself the target of public criticism. Mu Jin clearly expressed his disbelief, "Why does the Wing Throne Gao Jizun want to ruin his reputation, don't you know the development of the situation?" "It's like Xi Chao has no brains.
"Perhaps the Winged King thinks that the Emperor of the Sky High can do whatever he wants. How do you know that there is no impermeable wall in the world, and when the news spreads, the Wing King is afraid that he will not dare to fold it. "Officials fabricate facts with their own incorruptible tongues.
"It is a fact that the Wing King has not given advice for a long time, and this reason alone cannot be left unchecked and recreate the danger in the army." was about to return the Yiwang to Beijing, and the officials grabbed a little bit and held on.
"You know that the Wing King didn't send a message?" Mu Jinming asked rhetorically, hating those who betray the Lord and seek glory.
"The cabinet has not seen any setbacks." The official replied very smoothly.
"How is it that I don't know that you know more than I know?" Mu Jinming has been repeatedly made by officials.
The official couldn't help but be stunned, and he screamed in his heart. His complexion suddenly changed color, cold sweat soaked out of his forehead, and he repeatedly told himself to be calm. Perhaps the emperor did it on purpose, deliberately bluffing, and he must not show cowardice at this time, otherwise he will fall short.
The officials of the Great Prince's faction didn't hear it well. Secretly frowned. Recalling what he said before, he really never heard the emperor say that he had never received the music from the Wing King, could it be that there was something greasy in this, which they ignored? Don't be what you think.
All kinds of prayers unfolded, and seeing that the official could not answer, dragging it was not a solution, and someone stood up to relieve the siege.
"The emperor knows that the winged king has an excerpt, so why don't he discuss with the ministers. The war is urgent and should not be delayed. "This is a test to see if the emperor is secretly communicating with the Wing King. Deliberately avoid the ministers.
"Consultation?" Mu Jinming sneered as if he had heard an extremely funny joke, "I remember that not long after the war started, I had a good idea to ask you to come up with a charter, but in the end? โ
Mu Jinming sneered, and his voice set off a monstrous anger, "Then the coach has repeatedly failed, and I am waiting to discuss who is willing to share worries for me and the country, and in the end, no one dares to stand up and provoke the heavy responsibility of the border pass." It was the Winged King, only the Winged King stood up and pleaded to go to the border to serve the country and would rather die in battle, and you, my good courtier, Hao Aiqing, how did you reply to me. โ
"It's either peace talks or shrinking, and he only cares about protecting his own life." Mu Jinming's cold eyes swept out like a blade, "How old is the Wing King, just now, a weak woman stood up bravely, not for merit or profit, on the other hand, how dare you stand on the side of the palace with the face to stand on the palace of diligence." โ
"The ministers are guilty." The emperor was furious, the courtiers knelt down to admit their mistakes, and the officials of the prince's faction were as white as paper, shaking their mouths and couldn't spit out half a word, they couldn't refute it, shameful!
It seems that the emperor really had a private correspondence with the Wing King, and the courtiers only guessed the answer they wanted based on a few angry words from the emperor.
"Since I am incompetent and inactive, what is the use of waiting for me, just be honest and make an ornament, try to confuse the public with partial generalizations, and do not distinguish between right and wrong, what should I be guilty of." A light and shallow sentence made the ministers present tremble, repeatedly provoking the emperor's bottom line, how not to be angry, as for the consequences, it is unpredictable.
"Your Majesty, your minister, your minister......" The official retreated in fright, and his words to defend himself were so pale and powerless, he didn't even believe in himself, let alone others.
"The death of He Min and others can be described as innocent." Mu Jin's clear and pleasant voice was full of frost, "Disrespect to the Wing King, disrespect to the Emperor of the Emperor's Imperial Sword, and disrespect for the Wing King to draw his sword against each other, I will not repeat it here." โ
"Li Desheng took the charges presented by the Wing King and asked the ministers to keep their eyes open and distinguish what is loyal and what is treacherous." Mu Jinming restrained the killing intent that poured out of his heart, "In addition, He Min and the others wolf bรจi for treachery and embezzled military salaries, causing all the soldiers to have no silver to use, and the food is worse than that of beggars. โ
The evidence is in front of him, a qiฤ argument insistence has become a big laughing stock, there are too many flaws and nowhere to hide, looking at the pages of crimes, the courtiers shrank their necks one by one, the emperor is right, just pick out a serious crime that can harm the nine clans, what the wing king did is extremely reasonable, the door is far from the nine clans, and the difference between the door and the nine clans is thousands of miles, I have to praise the wing king's kindness and kindness.
Mu Jinming didn't give the eldest prince a chance to breathe, and he didn't let go of the snake for seven inches, "I mentioned the border pass before, it seems that you know better than me, the emperor. โ
The courtiers were tense and stiff when they heard this, the emperor was planning to settle accounts after the autumn! It seems that if someone is unlucky, I don't know if it will involve others, and many officials secretly pray to God and Buddha, hoping that they will be safe and sound.
"Minister, minister just heard." The official stumbled and said indistinctly, "It's a caravan." "There is already a sense of foreboding.
"I don't know about it, but I use it to target the Wing King, it seems that I am not worthy of sitting on this dragon chair, and you dare to deceive and conceal it, and turn things upside down in a vain attempt to quibble." Mu Jinming's voice was lower again and again, and his anger was full of majesty.
But no, how can any courtier hide the news and keep the emperor in the dark, and try to coerce the emperor to comply, this is a big taboo, it is comparable to covering the sky with one hand, who dares to take risks regardless of the law and discipline.
"The minister doesn't dare, the minister doesn't dare." The official was so frightened that he kowtowed, and the muffled sound of his head slamming on the stone bricks resounded through the hall, and the panic in his voice was revealed.
"I see that you dare to wait for you, spy on the military situation first, deceive me later, play a good show, try to play with me between applause, good, good, this is the courtier I trust." Mu Jinming's face was clouded.
The courtiers are like dark clouds, lest the thunder gather and split, and the whole person will turn into a handful of scorched earth, and his heart is like a drum, and he almost jumps to his throat.
"It is a capital crime to spy on military planes and disturb the army's morale, and it is not enough to succeed with the meager strength of Er, so it is determined that colluding with the border officers and soldiers to secretly communicate with the plan is today, if it is more than the evil and other evil." Mu Jinming's eyes were like knives harvesting the taut flesh of the courtiers.
"The two people who came took them down and put them in the Criminal Department for interrogation, and strictly investigated the rebels at the border and did not let any of them go." Mu Jinming's ruthless hands are one and two are two, "If there is a person who would rather die than give in, you should think about it for the whole family, whether it is a disaster for the whole family or a crime for the whole family, how to cooperate, if there is a false person, the crime will be added to the first degree, and the crime will be punished according to the criminal law is unforgivable." โ
As soon as this remark came out, the whole person of the courtiers seemed to be swept by the cold wind and was cold from the bones, the emperor was going to kill on a large scale, and even threatened such a non-flow method did not hesitate to use it here, it seems that there are more things to worry about this time, and the officials who are afraid of being bitten out are even more honestly afraid, and the officials of the prince's faction are scolded to the bottom, and they will harm others and themselves. (To be continued......)
