Lin Jue said quietly and firmly: "This just shows that Yang Jun's confession is problematic, just imagine, if Yang Jun really thinks that he is guilty, then he should be mentally prepared for the consequences." If you take such a crime, you will face severe punishment. If Yang Jun really has such psychological preparation, he will not make a big deal of nonsense in the court. You just said that he openly attacked the emperor's act of killing his brother and father in the court, which just shows that Yang Jun is not psychologically prepared for the consequences of the court's disposal. I think Guo Xu must have set up a bureau and promised Yang Jun something in advance, and the two sides reached some kind of agreement. Under such circumstances, Yang Juncai was willing to plead guilty and take responsibility. It is very likely that Guo Xu promised to open up to Yang Jun, and Yang Jun was willing to admit his guilt. For Yang Jun, he must also pass this level, and he can't shirk the responsibility for the defeat. If you can get the emperor's promise to save your official position and life, why not take all the responsibilities into one, although it will damage your reputation, it is nothing. ”

The fog in Zhang Hanqiu's heart had actually dissipated in Lin Jue's words, and he could almost conclude that Lin Jue's analysis was correct.

"No wonder...... No wonder...... Lord Yang said a few words in the court, saying that he had fallen for the emperor, that the emperor was despicable and shameless, and that he had made some promises when he went to his mansion the night before. It was chaotic and I didn't even pay attention to those words. After he said these words, the emperor rushed down from the dragon seat in a rage to gag him. Now it seems that the emperor may indeed have given Lord Yang some promise. And I personally went to his house and reached some kind of agreement with him. In the court, Yang Jun found out that he was tricked by the emperor, so he was annoyed and angry, and shook out the secret of Guo Xu's accession to the throne, and also tried to announce the incident the night before. The emperor was unwilling to let him say it, so he ...... There was a scene in the court that shouldn't have happened: an emperor actually killed the courtiers with a copper incense burner on the main hall with his own hands. This is not in a hurry to cover up something, to block Yang Jun's mouth, what else can it be? It's really incredible, if it weren't for Lord Lin to restore all this, we would all be in the dark. ”

Lin Jue sighed and nodded, "What you said is completely right, it is exactly what you said." The Liao people asked Guo Xu to kill Yang Jun in the terms of the peace negotiation, because Yang Jun was the most feared by the Liao people. In order to be able to destroy the Great Zhou in the future, the Liao people must get rid of Yang Jun. In order to reach a peace agreement, Guo Xu did not notice the conspiracy of the Liao. In addition, he himself was afraid of being criticized by the courtiers and the people after the defeat of the army, because the strategy of the northern expedition was what he insisted on doing. He feared that the throne was in jeopardy, so he urgently needed to reach an agreement with the Liao people and find someone to be the scapegoat. And Yang Jun is the most convincing scapegoat. In this case, killing Yang Jun can not only satisfy the Liao people, but also benefit Guo Xu. So Yang Jun had to die. ”

Zhang Hanqiu nodded heavily, Lin Jue's words were describing the ins and outs of the whole thing very clearly. The intentions of all parties are laid out in front of them, and the motives and actions are perfectly matched and almost irrefutable.

“…… However, killing Yang Jun directly could not convince the public, because the defeat of the army was indeed a big crime, but in addition to the responsibility of the defeat, the court should also investigate the responsibility of the court's decision-making. Second, Yang Jun has a very high prestige in the army, and he has cultivated many cronies and henchmen, and if he kills Yang Jun directly, he may cause a mutiny among the generals in the army, resulting in an uncontrollable result. So Guo

Xu hopes that Yang Jun will take the initiative to take the blame, so that those generals and henchmen will have no reason to make trouble. This can be seen from the fact that the imperial court promoted Yuan Zhenqian, the commander of the Northwest Army, to the post of privy deputy envoy. That Yuan Zhenqian is a subordinate of Yang Jun's family, and it can be said that he is a senior general who is completely subordinate to Yang Jun. The purpose of the imperial court was to appease Yuan Zhenqian and use the position of deputy privy envoy as a bargaining chip to stabilize Yuan Zhenqian. In order to achieve the goal of getting Yang Jun to take the initiative to confess, Guo Xu took the initiative to visit Yang Jun. It is conceivable that the night before Yang Jun's plea, the two must have gone through some bargaining, and in the end Yang Jun thought that he could not escape responsibility, so he agreed to play the guilty plea after getting some key promises from Guo Xu. You said that Guo Xu deliberately held an early morning court, that is, Guo Xu hopes that more officials will know about Yang Jun's confession and expand his influence. The confession was in hand, Guo Xu achieved his goal, and he planned to kill Yang Jun. When Yang Jun came to his senses, he found that he had fallen into Guo Xuyan, and he said those words in annoyance. Guo Xu was in a hurry, so he made the shocking move of killing Yang Jun with his own hands in front of hundreds of civil and military personnel. Master Zhang, I wonder if you have any doubts about my speculation? ”

Zhang Hanqiu looked at Lin Jue silently for a long time, and said in a deep voice: "I can only say that Lord Lin's analysis is not leaky. Even if there is a discrepancy, I'm afraid there is not much discrepancy. I don't want to believe that this is the case, but I have to believe that it is the case. Hey, who would have thought that such a thing would happen to me in Da Zhou, the king is not a king, and the minister is not a minister. The status of the monarch is not right, and he is mediocre and tyrannical. Those who are ministers are selfish, disloyal and unjust. The Great Zhou Dynasty has come to this point, and the emperors of the past dynasties have known it, and they are afraid that they will die of grief. ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "Da Zhou has reached this step today, and many people are to blame. Didn't the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty have any responsibility? How much money was spent in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the treasury was originally full of soldiers and horses, but in the hands of the emperor, it was already stretched thin and struggling. At the beginning, Mr. Yan and my teacher, Mr. Fang, hoped to implement the new law, change the situation, and achieve the goal of enriching the country and strengthening the army. But there have been so many obstructions and false accusations. Yang Jun himself was not very anxious to attack them, just because the two adults hoped to reform the military system, which touched his interests. Isn't his death today a form of retribution? If he can support the reform of the army, after two years of careful polishing, the soldiers and horses of my Great Zhou will eliminate the old and weak soldiers who are mixed in the army, and use the saved military expenses to enhance the treatment of equipment and horses, then how can the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou be what they are now? Now there are still 400,000 soldiers and horses on the front line of Bazhou, why would the imperial court agree to peace? Don't have the courage to fight again? That's actually because everyone understands that the 400,000 soldiers and horses have no combat effectiveness, and they are all waste. The bitter wine brewed by the imperial court itself had to be swallowed today. Killing Yang Jun is self-destroying the Great Wall, but in fact, the imperial court has been self-destroying the Great Wall for a long time. After Lord Congfang and Lord Yan died, the Great Wall of the Imperial Court had already fallen. ”

Zhang Hanqiu nodded and sighed: "That's right, that's right." At the beginning, you and I were in the Ordinance Division, and the new law was vigorous and effective. The weather in the imperial court is changing with each passing day. However, these losers, Lord Yan and Lord Fang, who are harmed by these petty people, can't move an inch. This group of bastards forced two adults to death, and now the clowns who are jumping off the beam in the Manchurian Dynasty, today's situation, if it is really made by themselves, is completely self-inflicted. ”

Lin Jue sneered: "It's too late to understand these now, the current situation of Da Zhou is basically intractable and terminally ill." ”

Zhang Hanqiu stared at Lin Jue and said, "Lord Lin, don't you want to save Da Zhou?" You are also the minister of the Great Zhou. The reason why I came to you is that I hope to follow you to do something, whether I can turn the tide and help the building to fall. Looking at the world, I'm afraid that only you can do it. After thinking about it, I decided to risk the world's condemnation to come to you, just hoping to do something. ”

Lin Jue laughed and said, "Master Zhang, you still think that we are rebels in your bones, and you still think that we are dishonorable, right?" Otherwise, how can you have the words of 'risking the world's disapproval'? ”

Zhang Hanqiu hurriedly said: "No, no, I didn't use the right words, I really think that the imperial court is no longer the imperial court that I want to be loyal to." I thought about it, I can forgive Guo Xu for usurping the throne, after all, he is also the son of the former emperor. Li Tang and Li Shimin are not also ......"

Lin Jue sneered: "Don't make such a comparison, can he compare with Li Shimin?" He didn't deserve to lift Li Shimin's shoes. ”

Zhang Hanqiu hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, I mean, even if he usurps the throne, he is actually the blood of the first emperor." There is only so much we can do as courtiers. If he were a good emperor, I would admit it. But as it turned out, he was a dumb man, so I had to make another choice. Lord Lin is now raising the flag against King Liang's father and son, but it is my Great Zhou Sheji who is blessed, and this is naturally my destination. ”

Lin Jue said: "Those who know the times are Junjie, I'm glad that you can think so." You can come, I welcome you with both hands, what we lack most now is people like you, you have a lot to do. ”

Zhang Hanqiu said: "I will do my best, I don't want Da Zhou to fall like this, I want to contribute." ”

Lin Jue nodded and said: "Then we will go in the same direction, just as the so-called colleagues can conspire, I don't want Da Zhou to fall." Master Zhang, it's right for you to leave the capital, otherwise according to your temperament, I am afraid that you will not be tolerated by them. Guo Xu, the emperor, is afraid that he won't be able to do it for long, this guy is stupid and bad, but he probably hasn't realized it until now, he has actually become a puppet. ”

Zhang Hanqiu was stunned and said, "How do you say this?" ”

Lin Jue squinted at Zhang Hanqiu and said, "Needless to say?" Lu Zhongtian is now the commander of the military and political power, and his son Lu Tianci is the third envoy, and the military and political and financial power of the imperial court are concentrated in this old thief, and he can already do whatever he wants. In the face of national disaster, this old thief grabbed all the power. Guo Xu is afraid that he is still in a dream at the moment. I wondered, what the hell is this old thief trying to do? At the beginning of the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the system of two governments and three divisions was established, which was to separate the three powers and coerce each other to supervise each other, so as to prevent the big power from monopolizing one family. He is good now, completely ignoring the ancestral system of the Great Zhou. What exactly does he want to do? I'm wondering if this design for Yang Jun is from him, and with Guo Xu's IQ, I don't think he can think of doing it. I even further boldly speculated whether the agreement of the Liao people to kill Yang Jun was promoted by Lu Zhongtian, and whether there was any tacit understanding between him Lu Zhongtian and the Liao people. Does the old thief have some ulterior and shocking plans? Who's to say it's impossible? ”

Zhang Hanqiu almost fell off the chair, his heart was pounding, and cold sweat broke out on his body.
