Chapter 314: Gambling (2nd Watch)
The few guards who escorted An Ba Lingwu over not only carefully explained the matter on Gu'an's side, but also presented a detailed copy written by Feng Sheng'a temporarily. Guo Xing'a read the detailed book by himself first, and then directly handed the white and black characters to Yi Guifei.
"On the first day of the first lunar month, Weng Tonggong only went to the fold to participate in me, but on November 30, my house let Shuntianfu burn down! Wronged! Wronged! Goxinga called out half-truthfully.
"It's not good to believe the words of the slaves at the bottom, it's hard to guarantee that there is no accident, and it's common to spread false rumors." Concubine Yi's heart is also turning over the river and the sea now, but she always wants to refute Guo Xing'a, otherwise Guo Xing'a will feel that he is taking advantage of it, and she may not know how to make trouble.
"Then let's take care of it. Everything else is an afterthought, but the reason for Gu'an's side is that my eldest nephew is lustful when he sees beauty, and he is not allowed to kill people because of adultery. Does Amba Lingwu have the ability to kill, let's talk about it, just one thing, does my eldest nephew know what Meise does? It's clear that the accusation is false! Goxinga began to reason with the facts.
"Shuntianfu didn't say that it was him, the eldest nephew was at the scene at the time, and Shuntianfu should ask him about it." Concubine Yi looked at the bean sprouts-like An Ba Lingwu and was also very puzzled, the person who was framed by this design was too careless.
"I can understand that Shuntianfu crossed Gu'an County and tossed blindly, but meddling in flag affairs is taboo, who gave them the courage to dare to cross the Dutong Yamen to arrest the flag people. Knowing that this is the bereaved family of its martyrs, it is the eldest young master of my Guoxing's family, and they dare to come hard, such a strong servant is really rare in my Qing Dynasty! "Guo Xing's heart is now happy, these people are not here to frame him, they are simply here to save him. With these people to help, Guo Xing'a's grievances and Guo Xing's compulsion have been vividly displayed.
"The righteous anger of the people below,...... " Concubine Yi thought of an explanation of the past that she had barely said, but she couldn't go on halfway through it, and it was really difficult to justify herself. The errands may have overstepped their authority on the spur of the moment, but the fact that hundreds of people besieging Guoxing's mansion was definitely not a matter of willfulness, and it was impossible to find so many people with will.
"What kind of delay tactics are there to go to the Yamen of Zuoling, besiege my mansion, set fire to and arrest people, this can be a matter of will! What a temperament! Moreover, three or five people are justifiable, there are more than 300 people who besiege my cold kiln, and they also mobilized Zhu Duoyou of Gu'an Zhi County, which can be done by just a few errands! "Guoxinga is reasonable, of course he refuses to spare people.
"It's a long way to go, and it's inevitable that there will be some misunderstandings!" Concubine Yi has already run out of words.
"Let's get it straight! In addition to these, what other arrangements does the emperor have! Although Guo Xing'a thought it was impossible, Xianfeng was still listed as the number one suspect by him, at least it was beneficial to Guo Xing'a.
"Fifth brother, don't think about it, how can these things be ordered by the emperor!" Yi Guifei wanted to slap her mouth a few times, as if she refuted Guo Xing'a's words, so that Guo Xing'a surrendered his suspicious gaze to Xianfeng.
"I can't see the truth! Now that it's like this, it's not appropriate for me to stay in Rehe anymore. Now that my family is in danger, please ask my sister to play the Ming Shengshang for me, and tomorrow I will release the Chunyou Department, and then immediately lead the Department back to Gu'an! Guo Xing'a felt that he had torn his face, even if he came back in front of Xianfeng, it was not safe, it was better to find an excuse to go back to the base camp. When he arrived in Gu'anke, it was his world, and if Xianfeng dared to find a posterior, he would immediately raise troops to occupy Tianjin, and then recruit troops to play the Romance of the Three Kingdoms with Xianfeng.
"Fifth brother, don't be temperamental! The matter is already clear, someone must have framed you, you can follow me into the palace to see the emperor! We will make things clear in front of the emperor, and the emperor will definitely redress your grievances! ”
Even if the dragon called, Concubine Yi couldn't let Guoxing'a return to Gu'an. Now Guo Xing's attitude towards Yixin has become ambiguous, if he is allowed to run back to Gu'an again, Yixin only needs to pull it again, and it is definitely only a matter of time before the two of them are in the same stream. Now that all the Rehe garrisons have been seen by Guoxing'a, it is easy for him to kill Xianfeng, and if he wants to leave, who can stop him, so he must bring Guoxingala back as soon as possible. Now Guo Xing'a just has an opinion on Xianfeng, and he has not yet firmly betrayed his mind, and when he arrives in the palace, there is a Sushun help, as long as Xianfeng gives Guo Xing'a decent step, Guo Xing'a will definitely borrow the slope to get off the donkey. Guo Xing'a has gone too far this time and has challenged the imperial power, but the situation is stronger than people, and he can only be allowed once. How to reduce and dispose of him in the future is a matter for later, and the top priority at the moment is to never let Guoxinga stand on the opposite side of Xianfeng.
"I entered the palace, the emperor is shining with candles, what should I do if I do it first? I can't trust him now, and everything in Gu'an may have been his mastermind. I'm a great master, but I can't die like this! As soon as Guo Xing'a heard that he entered the palace, he shook his head like a rattle.
"Fifth brother, sister, I swear in the name of my ancestors, even if I give up my life and don't want it, I will definitely keep you safe!" Concubine Yi began to swear by the heavens and the earth.
"I don't believe it, if the emperor loses his temper and kills the two of us together, you will have no choice." Guo Xinga said that he would not believe anything, and Guo Xinga, who was familiar with political science, would certainly not believe the oath of a politician.
"Then how can you believe it, you can't let the emperor come out of the palace to see you, and even if the emperor leaves the palace, the situation is still the same!" Concubine Yi found that Guo Xing'a actually had the intention of entering the palace, but she was worried about her own safety.
"I'm going to bring troops into the palace, and I won't bring more, just keep me safe!" Guo Xinga insisted that there were soldiers by his side and guns in his hands.
"How is this possible, how different is it from bringing troops into the palace to rebel!" Of course, Concubine Yi couldn't agree to Guo Xing's unreasonable demands. Guo Xing'a did this, self-protection and killing the monarch were just a thought in his mind, and Xianfeng couldn't afford to take this risk.
"Junmen, it is indeed inappropriate to bring troops into the palace, and there is no hurry to return to Gu'an, it is better to let the concubine Niangniang rest for a while, and then the two of you will discuss!" Guo Xing'a and Concubine Yi fell into a dead loop, and it was pointless to argue any longer, so Pi Runmin took the initiative to break the deadlock. It's not too tiring to sit and talk, the so-called rest for a while is just a small circle meeting in Guoxing'a, and Concubine Yi also thinks about it carefully.
Guo Xing'a and Yi Guifei also said that they were choked anyway, and when they heard Pi Runmin say it, they immediately nodded again and again. Guo Xing'a arranged a separate room for Concubine Yi to rest, and then discussed it with his advisers again. Zou Degui and others all felt that it was inappropriate to enter the palace, although there was a large army outside, but the emperor's temper was not allowed to go. Guo Xinga almost forced the emperor into a corner, and it was difficult to guarantee that the emperor would not recklessly avenge himself. As long as Guo Xing'a enters the palace, he is a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, which is equivalent to giving his life to Xianfeng.
Pi Runmin is a minority again, he feels that the army has controlled the situation, and Xianfeng will definitely not dare to move Guoxing A unless he wants to die with Guoxing'a. Returning to Gu'an seems to be good, you can get rid of the dilemma of supporting and self-reliance, but it is only a temporary solution, you can only delay but not solve the problem, the best way at the moment is to reconcile with Xianfeng. Although I don't know who is behind the chaos in Gu'an, it is extremely beneficial to Guoxinga. Guo Xing'a can continue to pretend to be a good baby in front of Xianfeng, and put all the blame on this mastermind behind the scenes, just say that he was forced by traitors. The situation of the Xianfeng Dynasty is now extremely complicated, and there is such an undercurrent, Xianfeng's main energy must be to calm the situation, not to clean up Guoxing'a, a domineering general.
After the two sides reconciled, Xianfeng would definitely split up Guoxing'a's forces, and Guoxing'a could also seek a base through this. It is the usual method of the imperial court to split and transfer all the subordinates of Goxinga one by one, but the Gu'an army is different from other troops, as long as Goxinga strangles the two parts of military quartermaster and troop training, these troops will always be Goxinga's people. Even if some officers like Bi Yuntao had different intentions after leaving Guoxing'a, and they had the foundation of the army and the means of the miscellaneous affairs department, they still couldn't make any waves, but gave Guoxing'a more opportunity to expand. If you can do this, Guoxinga can get a base area peacefully, without the need for a full-scale war with Xianfeng, although it is a little risky, but the cost is low and the benefits are large.
Guo Xing'a thought for a while, and began to lean towards Pi Runmin's opinion. As long as you master the training of officers and troops, and have a powerful brainwashing offensive and miscellaneous affairs to follow, you will be your own people who will train as many troops. And now is the era of industrial warfare, as long as you hold a unique arsenal in your hands, no one wants to make waves. controlled the supply of the arsenal, no matter how powerful the troops were, they had to obediently obey orders, otherwise they could only fight with people with bayonets.
But for his own safety, Guo Xing'a is still a little bottomless in his heart, he doesn't have the courage to gamble his life on Xianfeng and dare not touch him. Xianfeng is not the kind of saint in history who can endure what others can't bear, his temperament is very impatient, and he is a little bit of a reason to admit death, in case he short-circuits, he will definitely finish playing. In broad daylight, the reconnaissance battalion and miscellaneous affairs department also had no stealth skills, so they could only lurk near the summer resort, and they could not enter the palace at all. If Xianfeng really wants to kill himself, he will not be able to quench his thirst, after all, it is enough for dozens of seconds to smash the cup.
"If the military gate becomes a big thing, how can there be no risk, if you only want to protect the leader, disarm and return to the field!" Pi Runmin also lost his temper.
"Don't give me the agitation! I'm all on this, and the people who are disarmed and return to the field are not at ease, the so-called unsuccessful will become benevolent, but it is just difficult to ride a tiger! Guo Xing'a shook his head and sighed for a while, and finally made up his mind, it is not okay to take no risk at all. His current position is called a knife to stretch his head and shrink his head is also a knife, and he has no choice.
After retrieving Yi Guifei, who was already about to have white hair, Guo Xing'a agreed to enter the palace, but asked Yi Guifei to go into the palace to explain the situation, Xianfeng agreed to ensure that Guo Xing'a was safe, and Guo Xing'a was willing to enter the palace. Guo Xing'a was also worried that Xianfeng didn't know the situation at all, so he cut it when he saw him. As long as she could reconcile, of course Concubine Yi didn't care about running more errands, and immediately agreed to Guo Xing's request. However, when the two sides got up to enter the palace, Guo Xinga had a new request.
"In addition to bringing Amba Lingwu to explain the situation, I will also bring a servant and a counselor into the palace. A servant gave me a poison test, so that there would be traitors in the palace who would take the opportunity to poison me, so as to disturb the world. One of the strategists met with me and explained to the emperor how these strategists had been framed by the unconscious officials. When Guo Xing'a said about the servant, he pointed to Han Ying, who was hiding behind the curtain, and the strategist pointed to Zou Degui.
"Good!" A weak scholar and a shrunken servant, Concubine Yi was not worried about what they would do. And when she looked at Zou Degui, Concubine Yi's heart couldn't help but flutter, she really couldn't imagine that there would be such a beautiful man in time.
After the agreement, Concubine Yi and Guo Xing'a and their party left the camp of the Gu'an Army and slowly walked to the summer resort. But when he was leaving, Guo Xing'a gave another order from Pi Runmin.
"Bury all the Ouchi guards who have sent orders to the ministries! We've never met these people, and I don't want to see them again! ”
