Since the palace change, the Praetorian Guards have become the target of public criticism.

The repeated checks and self-proof have made the guards panic and turmoil inside.

It is also thanks to Mo Beichuan who has been in charge of the Praetorian Guard for many years, and he has accumulated a lot of power, so he can barely control the situation and there is no big chaos.

But now that the news of Mo Beichuan's dismissal suddenly came, the Praetorian Guards were in an uproar.

The generals were all panicked, worried that if the backer fell, they would end miserably.

Frightened, they all interconnected, inquired about the news, and discussed countermeasures.

Some people were not angry, and complained about Mo Beichuan, and proposed to go to the imperial study together to face the saint and intercede for Mo Beichuan.

As soon as this proposal came out, the confidants who were originally promoted by Mo Beichuan immediately responded.

And the non-descendant generals who were not valued by Mo Beichuan did not hesitate to oppose it, saying that this move was like forcing the palace and the way to death.

Soon, the arguments for and against became a mess, you scolded me for bad intentions, and I scolded you for being stupid.

Some people who can't make up their minds, and want to not offend both sides, are in the middle and mud, but they don't please both sides, and they are scolded as both ends.

There are also people who are always silent, coldly watching the chaos of the Praetorian Guard generals, and they don't know what they are calculating in their hearts.

The generals were in a panic, and the soldiers under them were also panicked, and the generals attacked each other, and the soldiers under them also cheered.

The powder keg, which was originally just barely suppressed by Mo Beichuan, completely exploded due to the sudden fall of Mo Beichuan.

……

At this time, Mo Beichuan had already taken off his general uniform and sat in the public room in civilian clothes.

In front of him, Liu Gongqun and Xu Shimao, two henchmen, had sad faces and dead faces.

Mo Beichuan himself was not much depressed, and said to the two with a calm face: "There is no need for this, just dismissal and going home, and never asking for guilt, is already very good." ”

When the two of them heard this, they were even more indignant in their hearts, and Xu Shimao stomped his feet fiercely, and said with grief and indignation: "The general has been in charge of the Praetorian Guard for many years, and he has been relegated to the post of general on only a trumped-up charge, how unfair is this, Your Majesty doesn't remember the old feelings at all?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" When Mo Beichuan heard this, he immediately shouted.

Liu Gongqun on the side also hurriedly grabbed Xu Shimao: "You dare to say this, don't die?" ”

"The general has been dismissed, and the two of us will get out sooner or later, we have come to this point, what are you afraid of?" Xu Shimao said with a stiff neck.

As soon as these words came out, Liu Gongqun's expression became more and more gloomy, and he opened his mouth, but in the end, he only smiled bitterly.

Mo Beichuan saw the expressions of the two, and he was still relieved in his heart.

These two people knew that they had fallen, but they did not centrifuge, but they did not cultivate him in vain.

After a slight sigh, Mo Beichuan spoke: "Although I have been dismissed, it is not that Your Majesty does not remember the old feelings, which is specific, and it is not one or two sentences that can be explained clearly." In short, you should remember one thing, Your Majesty did not fail me, and you have to be disrespectful to Your Majesty. ”

The two of them were slightly stunned when they heard this, and the general's words obviously had a deep meaning.

The eyes of the two of them, which were already disheartened, had a light again at this time, and Liu Gongqun asked tentatively: "General......"

Mo Beichuan directly raised his hand to interrupt: "Don't ask!" ”

Although the two of them were curious, they didn't dare to say any more, so they arched their hands and said, "The last general will obey the order!" ”

Mo Beichuan nodded, and then said: "I have something to tell you, the position of the general of the Praetorian Guard has always been held by the royal family of the clan, I left the post suddenly, the new general has not yet been decided, and for the time being, one of the generals will be selected to temporarily replace me, Your Majesty asked my opinion......"

The two of them had just recovered from their grief and indignation, and when they suddenly heard this, their hearts immediately jumped.

The two glanced at each other thoughtfully, and quickly moved away, both bowing their heads and saying nothing.

Seeing this, Mo Beichuan couldn't help but laugh.

He knew that these two people were thinking, although they were only temporarily acting as generals, but this opportunity was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for them.

In the first army, there are many adjutant generals, but there is only one general.

If you can lead the general for a period of time, and then transfer out of the forbidden army in the future, you will have the qualifications to directly compete for the position of the chief general of the first army.

Such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, how could Xu Shimao and Liu Gongqun not be moved.

"It's a pity!" Mo Beichuan sighed slightly in his heart, and said slowly: "I recommended Zhang Wu!" ”

When Xu Shimao and Liu Gongqun heard this, Huo Ran raised his head, but they couldn't control their emotions, they all changed color, and their feelings of loss were overflowing.

Liu Gongqun didn't say anything, but Xu Shimao didn't hold back, and spoke directly: "General, he is a rough man, and he doesn't dare to expect the qualifications of this temporary general." But if it is said that Zhang Wu is qualified, it is difficult to be convinced. Regardless of character and martial arts, it is not enough. Not to mention martial arts, just about character, today the general is dismissed, if this person is loyal, he should come to see the general immediately......"

"You blame him for this, I didn't let him come." Mo Beichuan waved his hand and clarified for Zhang Wu.

"Even so, I still refuse to accept my humble position." Xu Shimao is still uneasy.

"What about you?" Mo Beichuan smiled, ignored him, and turned to look at Liu Gongqun.

Liu Gongqun was not as anxious as Xu Shimao, and when he heard this, he was silent, and said: "Since the general is so determined, he must have his own deep meaning, and he obeys his orders. ”

"The co-authors of the bad guys are all my old Xu Dang, just your old Liu will be a good person, right?" Xu Shimao was furious when he heard this.

Liu Gongqun's face turned red, he smiled embarrassedly and bitterly, and said in his heart: "The generals have already been decided, and you have already expressed your dissatisfaction, what's the use of Lao Tzu continuing to complain?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Mo Beichuan glanced at Xu Shimao dissatisfied, and he could see it.

Although Xu Shimao is a little impulsive, he is not so impulsive on weekdays, but he is so out of shape at this time, which shows that the temptation of this temporary general is really too great.

Mo Beichuan's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "In the forbidden army, you two and I are like brothers, if there is really a good opportunity, how can I not consider you first?" ”

When the two of them heard this, they felt better, and immediately clasped their fists together: "General Xie is trustworthy!" ”

Mo Beichuan raised his hand to signal for exemption, and then said: "I didn't choose you, but Zhang Wu, I made the decision after thinking about it again and again, although this opportunity to go further is rare, but it is not without risk, this position is easy to sit on, you may not be able to sit well, sit firmly, then I am afraid it will have to be said." ”

When the two of them heard this, their faces were full of expressions and thoughtfulness.

Mo Beichuan continued: "After the change in the palace, in addition to external pressure, there is also an undercurrent surging within our forbidden army, even me, and I am just trying my best to suppress it. Now that I have fallen suddenly, the generals have lost their hearts and are panicking. Or have different thoughts, and engage in wind and rain. There will even be some demons and monsters hidden in the shadows, jumping out to fan the flames and try to fish in troubled waters. ”

"Now that I am suddenly gone, a great chaos within the forbidden army is inevitable, no matter who temporarily takes the position of general, the first priority is to calm the situation, I ask you, if you are allowed to go, you may suppress the generals and quell the chaos? The opportunity to take the position is rare, but if you can clean up the chaos, it will be a great achievement. But if you can't clean up ......"

"It's a humble power, please forgive the general!" Xu Shimao and Liu Gongqun glanced at each other, and immediately bowed down to plead guilty.

There is no need for Mo Beichuan to continue, the two of them are already sweating on their backs, and they said silently in their hearts: "If you can't clean it up, then you will become a black pot." ”

Seeing that they no longer had any grievances, Mo Beichuan raised his hand to let them get up, and said, "Okay, this is one of the reasons why I didn't recommend the two of you, it's good that you two can understand the danger." ”

"But Zhang Wu ......" Xu Shimao glanced at Mo Beichuan, who was dissatisfied with Zhang Wu before, he was a little hesitant in his heart at this moment, and still said: "General, since this matter is a blessing or a curse, then why not choose another person, although Zhang Wu has no ability, but after all, he has served under the general's account for many years." ”

When Liu Gongqun heard this, he immediately secretly scolded Xu Shimao for being troublesome, didn't it make everyone embarrassed to ask this?

Although they work under the same general, they are always close and different, and the general does not hand over this mess to Zhang Wu, but always has to hand it over to the other one of them.

Mo Beichuan was calm, and only said in a deep voice: "Zhang Wu has also been a general in the forbidden army for many years, and I will not harm him." Again, this matter is risky, but if it is done well, it is a great achievement. Zhang Wu is older than the two of you, and there are not many opportunities for him to go further, this opportunity is rare after all, of course, if he is unwilling to take this position temporarily, then Your Majesty and I will not force him to go. ”

"What the general said is very true." Liu Gongqun said.

Xu Shimao also nodded when he heard this, but in his heart, Zhang Wu was afraid that even if he knew the difficulties, he would not refuse.

After all, if this step is taken well, it can be described as a step to the sky.

"I don't let you get on the throne, in addition to the fact that this position is not easy to sit in, but also because there are more important things entrusted to you." Mo Beichuan's expression was obviously correct, his eyes were burning and his eyes were staring at the two, and his voice was solemn.

"Please command, General!" The two of them shook their bodies and hugged their fists in unison.

Mo Beichuan nodded, and said in a deep voice: "I was dismissed, and the forbidden army is chaotic, but the two of you must not be chaotic, and the matter of explaining your affairs in the afternoon will still continue." ”

The two didn't dare to slack off, and said in a loud voice: "Don't worry, general, we will follow the order." ”

"Okay, if this matter is done, then you don't need to think about the temporary general, as long as this matter is done, the real general's position is waiting for you." Mo Beichuan said in a deep voice.

The two of them were overjoyed, and knelt down on one knee at the same time: "The last general dares not to die!" ”

"Go ahead!" Mo Beichuan nodded: "Be careful, don't let anyone know that you have been here." ”

The two left.

Mo Beichuan sat alone in the public room, muttered for a long time, and whispered softly at the corner of his mouth: "I hope you will be fine!" ”

After a while, there were suddenly footsteps again.

Mo Beichuan looked up, only to see a forbidden soldier dressed as a soldier walking in and saluting Mo Beichuan.

Mo Beichuan nodded and said softly: "Xu Shimao and Liu Gongquan must have been exposed, although it is very likely that it will not work tomorrow, but it can also be used to attract the attention of King Ming." You are not my descendant in the forbidden army, and King Ming should not suspect you. You must be careful in this matter, before the king enters the palace tomorrow, he must not reorganize the army to prevent leakage. ”

"The general can rest assured, the last general will live up to the general's trust!" This soldier hugged his fists.

"Go ahead!" Mo Beichuan said softly.

The soldier didn't say much, and turned to leave.

"It's messy, the forbidden army is not chaotic, how can King Ming really rest assured?" Mo Beichuan stood up, muttered softly at the corner of his mouth, turned around and walked out of the public room, ready to leave the palace.
