Lin Jue smiled: "Don't dare to be, General Bai is polite." General Bai seems to be blind, he shouldn't have been an official in the capital, or is he clumsy? ”

Bai Qi said in a deep voice: "Lord Lin has good eyesight, he has been leading the army in the border town, and since joining the army, he has not left Yanyun for half a step in twenty years. Lord Lin naturally didn't know him. However, Lord Lin's fame, Bai had already heard of it when he was in the border town. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said: "I see, it turns out that General Bai led the army to fight against the barbarians in the border town, which is disrespectful and disrespectful. However, I haven't left the border town for twenty years, how did I come here this time? Oh, I see, it was Guo Xu who sent you back to help. Hehehe, our Luoyan Army has some face, Guo Xu is not confident in himself? Isn't he a self-proclaimed leading wizard? Why do you need to find a helper? ”

"Hahaha. He's just a piece of shit, a self-righteous piece of shit. ”

"Can he lead the army into battle? Old sows will go up trees. ”

The generals burst into laughter and ridiculed.

Bai Qi's face was ugly, and he said to Lin Jue in a deep voice: "Lord Lin, your words are too much, that is my Great Zhou Emperor, how can you be so insulted by foul language?" Even if it is hostile, it should not be. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "General Bai, can Guo Xu still be regarded as a human?" This person killed his father and brother, killed the women and children of the harem, and usurped the throne, which is not as good as a pig or a dog. This kind of person scolds him a few times, but it is still light. Yes, he is currently on the throne, but we don't agree with him as emperor. ”

Bai Qi said coldly: "Lord Lin is also a scholar, and he should know the ethics of kings and ministers. Let's not talk about whether what you say is true, even if it is true, the emperor is also the emperor, and whoever sits in the Guo family sits. Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty did not also usurp the throne, but after all, he became the first emperor of the ages. Our courtiers should not point fingers at the internal affairs of the imperial family, not to mention that it is even more unethical to rebel. ”

Lin Jue smiled and said, "I didn't expect General Bai's eloquence to be good. Li Shimin has moved out. Can Guo Xu compare with Li Shimin? Besides, is what Li Shimin has done right? Li Shimin is the one who opened the devil's box, and he set an extremely bad precedent. Fathers and sons kill each other, husbands and wives kill each other, and mothers, sons, mothers, daughters, and brothers kill each other endlessly. Yes, Li Shimin is indeed an eloquent emperor who created the prosperous atmosphere of Li Tang. However, later generations followed his example and killed each other, which was also an important reason for Li Tang's decline. It was a stain that he couldn't wash away no matter how hard he tried. Guo Xu wants to learn from Li Shimin? He learned Li Shimin's murderous set, but he did not have Li Shimin's eloquence. is so happy, ambitious and talented, and lost morality. How can such a person be the emperor of the Great Zhou? His becoming emperor is not the blessing of the Great Zhou, but the sign of the decline of the Great Zhou. Therefore, I followed the cavalry of King Liang's father and son to crusade against this unkind, unjust, disloyal and unfilial person, precisely to restore the order of my Great Zhou Dynasty and save the Great Zhou Society. Does General Bai understand this? ”

Bai Qi frowned and thought for a long time, then smacked his lips and said, "I can't say anything about you, Lord Lin, I have heard that your Lord Lin is talking about it, and today I realized that what I said is true." I'm not here to argue with you. As a courtier of the Great Zhou Dynasty and a leading general, he only knows how to be loyal to the country and obey orders. I don't care about other things, and I don't want to go into details. ”

Lin Jue nodded and said: "It is precisely because of you people that Da Zhou has ended up like this, regardless of right and wrong, regardless of the erosion of the world." If it sounds good, you are loyal, but if it is ugly, you are aiding and abetting. Seeing evil and not getting rid of it is the same as doing evil. What's more, those who indiscriminately become accomplices are evil slaves. ”

Bai Qi shouted angrily: "Lord Lin, I respect you for three points, but you insult me to my face." You are a scholar, how can you be more rude than me, a man from a military background? Teach me to look down on you a little. ”

Lin Jue couldn't help sneering, and Ma Bin scolded loudly: "Dog, do you want to go wild when you come here?" Believe it or not, Lao Tzu pulled off your head and used it as a urinal? ”

Bai Qi said coldly: "Since I dare to come here, I am not afraid of anything. I originally thought that Lord Lin was here, at least there would be some rules and etiquette in this Luoyan Valley, and it wouldn't really be like a mountain bandit nest like a place for some rough people to gather. Now it seems that I was wrong. It's a disappointment. If you want to kill, you have to kill casually, if someone is afraid of death, he will not come here. ”

"Then what if they kill you? Helping to be a torturer, killing one less one. Ma Bin Canglang pulled out his blade and scolded viciously.

Lin Jue waved his hand and said, "Brother Ma, you don't have to be like this. There is some truth in what General Bai said. The two armies are fighting without slashing, and it is a lack of etiquette for us to kill him. He can help and abuse, but we can't learn from them to be disloyal, unrighteous, ignorant, and ignorant. ”

Ma Bin retracted his blade and said: "What I said is that he is not a person, but we can't lack courtesy." If you want to kill someone, you will kill them on the battlefield, but you don't have to kill him at this moment. ”

Lin Jue smiled and nodded, turned his head to look at Bai Qi and said, "General Bai, why did you come here this time?" We are at war, and you have come to see me at this moment, are you here to surrender? ”

The crowd burst out laughing.

Bai Qi said in a deep voice: "Lord Lin, Bai didn't come up the mountain to quarrel with you. At the behest of the emperor, I came to talk to Lord Lin about something. There are some things that need to be clarified. ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Well, since you are here, we can't be without courtesy." Someone came, go and invite the little prince to come here, and said that Guo Xu sent someone to negotiate and asked the little prince to talk to General Bai face to face. ”

Sun Dayong agreed and walked outside to ask Guo Kun to come, but Bai Qi shouted: "No need, the emperor said that he only talked to Lord Lin, not King Liang and Little Wangye." ”

Lin Jue frowned and said: "This is strange, my lord of the Luoyan Army is the king of Bianliang, you don't talk to him but come to talk to me, what does this mean?" ”

Bai Qi said: "This is the emperor's will. Besides, whose soldiers and horses are the Luoyan Army, why does Lord Lin pretend to be a gesture? It's better to talk to him than to talk to Lord Lin. ”

Lin Jue reprimanded: "Are you provoking the relationship between me and King Bianliang in person?" Ill-intentioned. Damn it! ”

Bai Qi said: "Lord Lin thinks too much, Bai has no such intention. ”

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "Originally, there was no need for negotiation between us, and the best negotiation was on the battlefield. But I don't think it's good for either side to see each other, and it's not good for Da Zhou. Then we'll talk. Say whatever you want. ”

Bai Qi turned his head to look at the people around him, and muttered, "Bai wants to talk to Lord Lin alone." ”

Lin Jue smiled: "These are my brothers in life and death, what can't you say in front of them?" Why are you doing so sneaky? ”

Bai Qi said: "Bai Mou doesn't mean anything else, it's just that there are many people, Bai Mou is not here to quarrel, but to talk about things." Besides, there are some things that really can't be said in front of everyone, and Lord Lin should understand this. ”

Of course, Lin Jue understood that in fact, Bai Qi's intention was to come Lin Jue already had some guesses in his heart. After a big battle, Bai Qi came to negotiate, apparently with some purpose. Among them, there may be some conditions and exchanges of interests that cannot be seen by people, and many people are present, so it is inconvenient to say a lot of things.

Lin Jue thought for a while and said, "Okay, just do what you want." Please come with me to the side hall. ”

Lin Jue stood up and walked to the side hall, and Bai Qi stepped to follow. Ma Bin leaned sideways to block him and shouted, "Slow down, the guys on the mountain don't stay." ”

Bai Qi sneered: "Master Ma is also a little careful, he is worthy of being a person from the Imperial City Division." ”

Ma Bin shouted: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't believe in you people at all." If you don't take the initiative to leave the blade, I'm going to do it. ”

Bai Qi sneered, reached out and untied the sword at his waist, and took out a dagger from his boots and threw it on the ground. Only then did Ma Bin put down his horizontal arm and let him follow Lin Jue away.

In the small hall of the west head, Lin Jue asked Bai Qi to sit down, ordered someone to close the door, and hung up the curtain. Turned around and sat opposite Bai Qi, and said with a smile: "General Bai can say anything he wants." ”

Bai Qi nodded and said, "Lord Lin, I won't go around the bend anymore." I came to see Lord Lin at the behest of the emperor, and I brought the emperor's sincerity. The emperor said that there may be some misunderstandings between him and you, and there were some festivals in the capital at the beginning, but those have passed. He has always admired Lord Lin. Once upon a time, he also personally visited Lord Lin, hoping to conspire with Lord Lin on state affairs. ”

Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "There is indeed such a thing, but the Tao is not the same, Guo Xu and I are not all the way." There was more to me than just a holiday with him. For private reasons, he kidnapped my wife, Princess Green Dance, with the intention of persecuting me. The deaths of my teachers Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengsu were also caused by the persecution of him, Lu Zhongtian and others. As far as the public is concerned, he killed the emperor and the queen mother, made a beast that people and gods are angry about, and usurped the throne of my Great Zhou. In public and private, it is not a small feud between me and him. It is by no means a matter of words. ”

Bai Qi nodded and said: "Since Lord Lin claims to be the minister of the Great Zhou, it shows that Lord Lin still has the intention of belonging to the Great Zhou in his heart, and with this, we can talk about anything." ”

Lin Jue smiled faintly: "What is attached?" I am the minister of the Great Zhou, and my Luoyan Army uprising is not a rebellion against the Great Zhou, but a rebellion against Guo Xu. You have to figure this out. Our Luoyan Army is not a mountain bandit and a grass bandit, we are soldiers and horses under Guo Kun, the king of Bianliang, who wants to avenge the emperor and eradicate Guo Xu, a traitor who usurped the throne. We hold the Great Zhou State Seal entrusted by the emperor, and we are the teachers of justice. If you don't even understand this, what else do we have to talk about? ”

Bai Qi was stunned and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, it's the fault of the next." What Lord Lin said is true. However, Bai asked Lord Lin, what did you bring to Da Zhou by raising the flag like this? Who suffers in the end? And who is the one who is harmed? ”
