As soon as Chu Tianya's words were finished, Ma Kuo, who was at the head of the group, stood up and shouted excitedly: "Wang Du Rong Ma has been loyal to the country all his life, and in the end he ended up like this!" The court and the government are weak and compromise externally, and fool the people internally to suppress loyalty, and sooner or later the world will be chaotic! Ma thought that our Qingyun Fort could take this opportunity to develop and grow again - Ma built yì, and Xu Hanmi did not mourn to cover up the news of Wang Yu's death; Then, our Qingyun Castle will come to mourn and mourn the king! ”

"What Second Brother Ma thinks coincides with me." Chu Tianya said, "After the Battle of Taiyuan, Wang Dutong has become a national hero in the eyes of all Han people in Hedong. Not to mention anything else, just the tens of thousands of Taiyuan soldiers and civilians who survived after the war dared to go to the soup for the royal capital. Xu Hanmi's refusal to mourn also shows that he is afraid that the death of Wang Dutong will cause a mutiny among the soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan. Regardless of whether Wang Dutong's death was related to his persecution and assassination, a national hero who should have been respected and praised was imprisoned and reduced to a prisoner. Because Wang Dutong is my mentor, then I can mourn for him in the name of my students, and denounce Xu Han's heinous crime of cruelty to Zhongliang! -- As long as this news spreads in the Hedong area, Xu Hanke will completely stand on the opposite side of the people's will and morality. In addition, whether it is the Shengjie Army or the Taiyuan Military Patrol that was once under my control, it will not be peaceful after hearing about this, and even if there is a mutiny, it is possible. For Xu Han, this is a blow to the bottom of the kettle. At the same time, Qingyun Castle will surely attract countless loyal people to join us. For the teacher's funeral, righteousness; One eliminates the other, big profit! ”

"Good! After listening to the high arguments of the two brothers, Meng was extremely teachable and suddenly opened! Meng De was already enthusiastic, and his hands slapped heavily on the seat and stood up, "Such a righteous act, we Qingyun Castle are duty-bound!" Immediately mourn for the horses, and everyone in the castle will hang filial piety and pay tribute! ”

"Yes! ――”

Just do it, this is Meng De's style, and it is also the style of the entire Qingyunbao now.

As soon as the meeting was dismissed, the order was swiftly issued to every soldier and every household in the fort. Although it has been rebuilt, the "concerted efforts" and "generosity" that belonged to the former Qingyun Fort have been completely preserved. Everyone threw themselves into this act of mourning and mourning. It's just one day, the mourning hall in Qingyun Fort sacrifices all the hanging filial piety, the soul flags on Tianlong Mountain are lined with mourning, almost all the tall trees are hung with white filial piety, and when you look at it from a few miles away, it is a flying white!

Chu Tianya wore linen and filial piety for the king, and personally presided over the memorial. A tearful, enthusiastic and generous sacrificial text was plagiarized in thousands of copies, and was sent by Qingyun Fort to distribute it widely throughout Hedong. Of course, there will be no shortage of hundreds of copies thrown into Taiyuan City, and some people in the garrison outside the city have begun to spread the word of mouth.

"Bang!"

A tremor came from the study of the Taiyuan prefect's yamen. This was followed by the screeching sound of cups shattering.

"Chu thief, what does he want!!" Xu Han was really angry at this time, and slapped his palm on the sacrificial document on the table, and his hands were swollen.

Under his seat, several generals Yao Gu and seed masters who went out this time were all listed, and there were more than a dozen people in the hall, all of whom were silent.

Originally, for what happened to Wang Yu, a former comrade, these generals had a little bit of sadness and sadness about the death of rabbits and foxes. Now that things have come to this, they seem to know that the court division that now controls Taiyuan has unconsciously stood on the back side of the people's will and morality. On the contrary, it was occupied by the group of bandits in Qingyun Castle that occupied the highest point of morality.

It's a wonderful irony that has never been seen before.

I have to say that this is a heavy mistake by the imperial court and Xu Han in the implementation of policies!

Xu Han's anger, on the one hand, was of course because of Chu Tianya's cunning that penetrated every gap, and on the other hand, there were also many accusations and complaints against the court and officials. After all, he was just a puppet who acted on orders, and now he was forced to bear these mean and reactionary infamy for the officials and the imperial court. For a Confucian who is strong and loyal by nature, this is like the shame of being dressed naked in public!

At this moment, Xu Han seems to have deeply experienced the feelings of the former king. The officials and the imperial court sat in the temple and looked at the world with their noses, and only knew the blind command of the arrogant and arrogant people, so they ignored the complex forms of the people and the local government and the difficulties of doing things. A few days ago, if he hadn't threatened him with his resignation, the officials would not have reluctantly retracted their wrong decision to hunt and kill Guan Shan.

However, from the first day of Xu Han's departure, the official family and the imperial court had already begun to make mistakes. This mistake could never be remedied, until today, it finally exploded.

At this moment, no one can understand the resentment, helplessness and remorse in Xu Han's heart. In Taiyuan, he was the representative of the official family and the imperial court. He will be held responsible for any mistakes, and all the targets of hatred will be directed at him.

This time, Xu Han not only wanted to pick on his son again, but also had the heart to seek death.

After a fire, he sat down in public, put his hands on his forehead and said weakly: "Generals, what is the best plan?" ”

The generals looked at each other for a while, but no one stepped forward to speak.

This is a situation that is caused by the mistakes of the high-level decision-making of the official family and the imperial court, and no one dares to talk about it casually. Everyone present has been in the officialdom for half their lives, and this basic "code of conduct" is still understood.

Faced with his subordinates' pretending to be dead and inaction, Xu Han was even more annoyed in his heart, and simply began to order, "Among the planters, you speak first!" ”

The planter's face was bitter, and he reluctantly stepped forward and hugged his fist hesitantly, and said, "The top priority is to stabilize the army first." The former Shengjie Army and Taiyuan Military Patrol are likely to fluctuate because of this. If someone maliciously instigates it, at worst, it may mutiny! ”

"Then what are you waiting for, go and put an end to this!" Xu Han shouted with the smell of gunpowder.

"Yes......" The planter frowned and responded with resentment, but said in his heart: How to put an end to it? Can't you kill them all?

Xu Hanqiang sat up straight, "Yao Gu, how is Guanshan over there?" ”

"It's been agreed, and I will come down the mountain tomorrow." Yao Gu replied cautiously.

"There is no room for error in this matter, you must prevent things from happening!" Xu Han didn't instruct what to do, and followed the example of the official family to come to a "blind command" and said, "Go and do it!" ”

"Ugh! …… Be! Yao Gu's face cramped, and he agreed in a daze.

"By the way, keep an eye on Wang Xun!"

"Yes!"

Xu Han stood up, his eyes were red as if he was breathing fire, "Close the city, and go all out to hunt down the Xishan spies who have infiltrated the city; No matter who it is, as long as he is discussing and spreading the news of Xishan, he will be arrested! If there is resistance, kill him! ”

"Yes!"

The seed master couldn't help but ask: "Enfu, there have been many desertion incidents in the army in recent days, and they are basically Sergeant Shengjie and Taiyuan military patrols. With such a fuss in Xishan this time, there will definitely be more deserters. The last general wants to ask, how to deal with these deserters? ”

Xu Han's expression was distorted on the spot, and he glared straight at the planter, and he almost scolded on the spot-If the official throws the pick to me like this, can't I throw it to you? If you don't know the current affairs, you have to ask in public to understand, and you don't dare to take a little responsibility?

The seed master was stared at like this, and he was a little hairy and annoyed. simply stubbornly refused to back down, and refused to give up until he had to ask for the right word. Otherwise, this charge of "massacring his sergeants" is simply a stain on his life for a professional soldier who was born in a general's family!

"Do whatever you want! As long as you don't mutiny, it's fine! "Xu Han is a bit of a trick.

The planter wanted to jump up and choke his neck on the spot, but several colleagues next to him hurriedly stopped him with their eyes, so he endured it.

"Xishan, those who come are not good; From now on, all of you have to cheer up! Xu Han clenched his teeth to the bone, "Just wait for the disintegration of Qixing Village, we will definitely sweep the West Mountain and kill all the traitors!" ”

"Yes!"

Xu Han let out a long breath and said in a compromised and helpless tone, "Start preparing immediately, and officially become the king...... Mourn and mourn! ”

To make amends, Xu Han hopes that it is not too late.

At this moment, in the Tianshu Military Machine Hall of Qixing Village, Bai Xu held a piece of paper in both hands and looked at it carefully, his expression was very solemn.

Next to him, Xue Yu stood against the wall with his hands crossed on his chest, looking at him quietly.

After exhaling lightly, Bai Xu folded the paper and put it down, took out a fan and shook it gently, and said, "Third brother, the eldest brother must know about this?" ”

"Yes." Xue Yu nodded, "In the morning, when I helped my eldest brother straighten out the soldiers and horses at Tianqian Pass, I received these sacrificial messages from Xishan together. ”

"What does Big Brother say?"

"The arrow is on the bow, and it has to be sent."

"Hey......" Bai Xu sighed softly, stood up, and paced with a worried face.

"Why don't you persuade the eldest brother?" Xue Yu said that this was also his intention to come to Bai Xu.

"I can't persuade you." Bai Xu's eyebrows furrowed, "Big brother this time, he is determined to take this step." If he retreats at this time, then he is the 'No. 1 hero in Hedong'. ”

Xue Yu was speechless and could only be silent. There was a rare grim look on his handsome face.

"Chu Tianya went to Xishan, just like a fish and a dragon entering the sea, like a tiger with wings. Earlier, if I could have brought him under the tent of Qixingzhai, I think it would be more prosperous today than Xishan. Bai Xu shook his head with a wry smile, "That's it, this person is definitely not a thing in the pool, and he will not be willing to live under people for a long time." I already have two big masters in Qixingzhai, where did he come from? ”

Xue Yu's expression couldn't help but change, "Why did the military advisor say this?" ”

Bai Xu was slightly stunned, smiled and said, "The third brother is not an outsider, and Xiaosheng doesn't have to hide anything from you." Don't you think so? ”

Xue Yu sighed softly and nodded.

"Now Xishan is famous and thriving, but my Qixingzhai is panicking and falling apart." Bai Xu shook his head helplessly, "Third brother, now Xiaosheng has finally understood that if you want to survive and make a difference in this troubled world, it is far from enough to have deep righteousness and fierce force. More importantly, we need a correct direction for progress and a firm way of thinking. Meng De and Ma Kuo, the two pillars of the West Mountain, are not above you and me in terms of literary and military talents, let alone the eldest brother and second brother. But they have the guidance of a core figure like Chu Tianya who is sober-minded and has firm beliefs, and they obey him, so they are all like fish in water. ”

Xue Yu said lightly: "What does the military advisor mean is that our Qixingzhai is lacking a figure like Chu Tianya to lead us?" ”

Bai Xu shook his fan and walked to the window, looked at the misty sea of clouds outside the window, and fell into a long silence.
