Going out of the city to fight back against Guo Peng was something Yuan Shu had always wanted to do, but was later stopped by Lu Mian, Yuan Shu himself thought about it and felt that doing so was indeed looking for death, so he dispelled this idea.

As a result, along with the rumors, a large number of officials went to the table to participate in Lu Mian and announce personal vendettas, so Yuan Shu began to be suspicious of Lu Mian, and he was very suspicious.

Of course, it's not that no one speaks for Lu Mian.

Shang Shu ordered Han Yin to personally visit Yuan Shu, and made a message to Yuan Shu, persuading Yuan Shu not to believe those rumors, Lu Mian is the safety of Shouchun City, and the army's heart must not be shaken at this critical moment.

"At present, the enemy is the first task is to retreat from the enemy, not to change the commander, although the minister does not understand the art of war, but also knows that changing the commander in battle is a taboo for soldiers, since ancient times, there is no one who has not failed, not to mention that it is not wise to change the commander for things that have no real evidence."

Han Yin persuaded Yuan Shu bitterly.

Yuan Shu's face hesitated.

"What Han Qing said, it's not that Lone doesn't know, but now there is a lot of rumors about this matter outside, if there is no source, how can this matter spread so widely, and there are so many officials on the table, let Lone guard against Lu Mian?"

Han Yin opened his mouth and said: "In order to defend Shouchun City, General Lu forcibly conscripted the troops and family members of the big families in the city to join the army, and asked them to donate money, and also robbed their houses, dismantled them into stones and timber to defend the city, and the methods were rude.

In this way, General Lu Da offended many people, and there were almost no officials in the DPRK and China who were not offended by him, but in the end, he did this for His Majesty, for the sake of Chen Guo, not for himself, if he was against it, how could he offend the officials on such a large scale? ”

Although Yuan Shu felt that what Han Yin said made sense, he was still not at ease.

"Lu Mian has the military power of the whole city, if he wants to open the city and surrender to Guo Thief, wouldn't it be easy? If it's a little bit bad, isn't it the most dangerous thing to be alone? ”

Han Yin shook his head anxiously.

"Your Majesty, there is no doubt in employing people, no suspicion is needed, Your Majesty appointed General Lu to be fully responsible for defending the city, you should not suspect General Lu, but should resolutely support General Lu at this time, and when you get through the difficulties, all problems will be solved, and there will be no current situation."

Han Yin's bitter persuasion seemed to make Yuan Shu dispel his suspicions, and Han Yin took his leave and left.

As a result, as soon as Han Yin left, another group of officials asked to see Yuan Shu, and said that Lu Mian was plotting against him.

What did their family say when they heard Lu Mian personally say that this battle could not be fought and that they had to find a way to end it, and the words revealed that they did not have any confidence in this battle, and they did not have any confidence in His Majesty the Emperor Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu's heart began to beat violently again.

"Lu Qing is a lonely minister, you can't suspect Lu Qing like this!"

The words were said so, but Yuan Shu's expression didn't seem to be expressed like this.

They wanted to continue to say something, but Yuan Shu didn't let them continue, so he drove them away.

This group of officials went to Yuan Yao again and told Yuan Yao about this matter, Yuan Yao was naturally worried, but he felt that Yuan Shu's decision was the final decision, and it was useless for him to worry.

"His Royal Highness is the heir of His Majesty's country, if His Majesty's inheritance is not guaranteed, how should His Highness inherit the throne?"

Yuan Yao suddenly felt that what they said was very reasonable.

But he didn't know how to talk to Yuan Shu about it, because Yuan Shu didn't seem to want to discuss it.

"Your Majesty doesn't say it, it's because of your worries that Your Majesty needs someone to share his worries, this person has to be His Royal Highness the Prince, so His Royal Highness can make a statement to His Majesty."

"What do you say?"

Yuan Yao hurriedly asked.

"What Your Majesty is worried about is nothing more than that Lu Mian wants to commit treason to the enemy, so it is very simple, you can let Lu Mian lead his troops out of the city to challenge Guo Thief, as long as Lu Mian agrees, the battle against Guo Thief, whether he wins or loses, is enough to prove Lu Mian's loyalty.

But if Lu Mian is unwilling to fight Guo Thief head-on, it means that Lu Mian has a ghost in his heart, secretly colluding with Guo Thief, and is unwilling to fight Guo Thief, for fear of offending Guo Thief! None of us can communicate with the outside of the city, only Lu Mian, who is in charge of the defense of the whole city, can easily do this! ”

The official's words cleared Yuan Yao's doubts.

Yuan Yao finally understood what he had not been able to figure out.

Lu Mian, there is really a problem!

So Yuan Yao hurriedly went to find Yuan Shu and put forward his own suggestions to Yuan Shu.

"If he is willing, no matter whether he wins or loses, he is loyal, and his father can rest assured that he can appoint him, if he is unwilling, he has a problem, and his father should take Lu Mian immediately!"

Yuan Shu was hesitating, full of anxiety, and suddenly heard Yuan Yao's words, and suddenly felt that what Yuan Yao said made sense.

If Lu Mian is not disloyal, then Lu Mian will definitely listen to the order, if Lu Mian has a ghost in his heart, then take it on the spot!

It's kind of to give him a choice, to test him, right?

Yuan Shu took a deep breath and praised Yuan Yao fiercely, making Yuan Yao very happy.

So Yuan Shu sent someone to invite Lu Mian over, and said that Yuan Shu was going to set up a banquet to entertain Lu Mian and appease Lu Mian.

Lu Mian learned that Yuan Shu had summoned him and wanted to set up a banquet to entertain him, so he didn't think much about it, although the military affairs were busy at the moment, but for some reason Guo Peng suddenly slowed down the frequency of attacks and reduced the intensity of attacks, which made Lu Mian a little strange.

But no matter how it is, there will be no time to eat a meal, the emperor's banquet still has to give face, for this, Lu Mian is still very good.

Yuan Shu met Lu Mian very affectionately, although his body was still relatively weak and could not stand for a long time, but Yuan Shu still went out of the palace to greet Lu Mian, and personally took Lu Mian to walk, which made Lu Mian very moved, and felt that his trust was not given to the wrong person, and Yuan Shu really would not doubt himself.

As long as Yuan Shu believed him, then he had many ways to make Guo Peng unable to enter Shouchun City, so he could only obediently withdraw from the army.

He believed that Yuan Shu would make the right choice, and now Yuan Shu had indeed made the right choice.

At the banquet, Yuan Shu toasted Lu Mian, beckoned Lu Mian to drink less and eat more, and he prepared for Lu Mian what Lu Mian liked to eat.

Seeing that Yuan Shu still remembered what he liked to eat, Lu Mian was even more moved, so he took a big bite and devoured it, wanting to eat all the food that Yuan Shu had given him.

On the one hand, he is hungry, and on the other hand, he is the rule that the Son of Heaven must eat all the food and not leave any left.

Lu Mian, who adhered to the way of the minister, seemed to be very satisfied with Yuan Shu, and Lu Mian was also very satisfied with himself, so when Yuan Shu suddenly asked that question, Lu Mian thought that Yuan Shu was joking.

"Guo thieves have besieged the city for a long time, there is no traffic inside and outside Shouchun City, people outside can't get in, people inside can't get out, it's not a way for us to be trapped in a lonely city, can Lu Qing personally lead a group of soldiers and horses to defeat Guo thieves and lift the siege of Shouchun?"

Yuan Shu's sudden questioning made Lu Mian stunned and stunned on the spot.

"Your Majesty's words...... Why? ”

After a while, Lu Mian asked such a question with difficulty.

"Didn't Lone make it clear? Lonely means that Shouchun City has been besieged for a long time, and it is not a way for us to be trapped in the lonely city, Guo thieves have besieged the city for a long time, and the soldiers must have been tired of war, and their morale should be greatly reduced. ”

Yuan Shu had a confident smile on his face, which once made Lu Mian wonder if Yuan Shu had drunk too much and was confused.

But it doesn't seem like that.

Yuan Shu didn't drink too much and looked sober.

Since he is sober, how can he say such a thing?

Guo Peng has been besieging the city for less than a month, is this called "besieging the city for a long time"?
