Chapter Seventy-Nine: A wave of unsettled waves rises again
Harem, side hall.
Air, frozen and silent.
Zhang Yi maintained a saluting posture, even if he was on the cusp of the storm, his face still did not change.
"Zhang Yi!" Ye Gucheng must admit one thing, his killing heart has changed a lot, if it was in the past, at this moment, Zhang Yi would definitely die. "You should rejoice that you are faithful enough and have worked hard for the Kingdom!"
"This is the duty of a minister. β
"But don't think too highly of yourself, who gave your dog the guts to make such a suggestion?" Ye Gucheng slapped the table heavily and roared, "Do you really think I won't kill you?"
Outside the hall, several palace guards trembled at the sudden roar, and immediately, they looked at each other and glanced at the closed door of the hall with palpitations.
Zhang Yi's expression did not change, and he gritted his teeth and said: "The minister knows that the commander is reluctant to give upγγγγγγ β
"You know a fart, you think you know, but it's not, Zhang Yi, you don't know anything. Ye Gucheng blushed, gritted his teeth and continued: "Zhang Yi, let me ask you, in your life, are there any people who are extremely ashamed? Your savior, in order to save you, lost everything, including the most precious youth, even so, still has no regrets, such a person, will you let her bear the blame for the trumped-up crime?"
"Zhang Yihui!" Zhang Yi raised his head suddenly, calmly faced Ye Gucheng's anger, and said in a deep voice: "The kingdom is the foundation of everything, if there is a need, Zhang Yi can even kill his wife and son to protect the stability of the kingdom, besides, the subjects protect the monarch, it is justified, not to mention the grace of saving lives." β
Ye Gucheng was stunned, he knew that Zhang Yi was serious! I don't know why, his heart trembled for no reason, he didn't dare to imagine how cruel people in this era were, if it were him, he would definitely not be able to do it, he would rather lose the kingdom than lose his family.
"Commander! The kingdom has really reached a critical moment! The prosperity of the kingdom, the life of General Xuanyuan, and the life of Li Yue'er, if you can only choose one of the three, you can only choose Li Yue'er, who has the least effect on the kingdom, as long as the commander orders Li Yue'er to be killed, the rumors of the evil and the country will be self-defeating, the subjects will be at ease, and the kingdom will be prosperous, Commander!" Zhang Yi insisted like this for the first time, even if he would lose his life in the next moment, he did not hesitate, because he knew better than anyone how much Li Yue'er's matter had caused waves in the kingdom.
"Zhang Yi, you should tell me clearly, the rise and fall of the kingdom, Xuanyuan Xue's life, why is it involved with Yue'er, I can't say it clearly today, don't be the right minister. Ye Gucheng was completely furious.
Zhang Yi was not afraid at all, and said in a deep voice: "The commander lives in the palace of the king, and during this time, he has worked hard because of General Xuanyuan's affairs, so he doesn't know that the kingdom has already been in turmoil. Miss Yue'er was already pressed by the temple as a demon girl, under the wrath of the gods, the earth trembled, the mountains and rivers collapsed, countless deaths and injuries, the commander was attacked and life and death were uncertain, and the whole country was panicked. β
Ye Gucheng hated himself very much, if he hadn't handed over Li Yue'er to the temple with a thought, Li Yue'er would not have been accused of being a demon girl in the open.
"The minister grew up in the western capital since he was a child, and experienced the rule of the Western Regions, but the minister dared to swear to the gods that the people of the Huaxia Kingdom had changed! They were not numb to the crowd, they also knew how to defend the kingdom! Like the ministers, they deeply loved the Huaxia Kingdom under the rule of the commander, because only in the Huaxia Kingdom, the ministers, and Zhang Yi felt that they were like individuals, and they could live with dignity and dignity, rather than an insignificant and despicable poor person in the Western Regions. Zhang Yi's eyes began to redden.
It was the first time Ye Gucheng saw Zhang Yi lose his temper like this, and for some reason, the anger in his heart subsided a lot.
Because of the fear of the kingdom's decline, many soldiers and civilians in the city unanimously denounced Li Yue'er, and the reports requesting the commander to kill Li Yue'er were about to fill the minister's mansion. Now, in order to defend General Xuanyuan, the commander not only broke the law, but also put the two newly promoted ministers into the prison, and in the eyes of the ministers, he thought that the commander had been bewitched by demons! The ministers are still like this, let alone the common people!"
"Strong words, as the commander of the three armies and the monarch of the kingdom, what does it have to do with Yue'er to pardon Xuanyuan Xue? Is it difficult to do it, this marshal can't make an exception to pardon the meritorious soldiers who protect the country and defend the country?" Ye Gucheng's anger that had just calmed down soared upwards again.
"If it's usual, it's normal, even if the ministers are angry, they don't dare to say anything, but now the time is not right! Commander, Li Yue'er is already on the cusp, and the ministers naturally blame all this on Li Yue'er's demagogy, intending to mess up our kingdom. β
"Fart!" Ye Gucheng roared, and slapped his palm on the table again.
Outside the hall, the body of the palace guard shook unconsciously, for the second time! They began to worry about Zhang Yi.
Of course, this time they were accompanied by Li Yueli.
Li Yueli originally wanted to find Ye Gucheng to dine, but she didn't want to, she couldn't have imagined that Li Yue'er, who had no quarrel with the world, would become a victim of the kingdom in this way.
"The commander doesn't like it, and the minister has to talk about it!" Zhang Yi also let go, suddenly knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said: "I implore the commander to remember that it is not easy to build a country, and to fear the panic of the people for the sake of the ministers, and to tell the world that Li Yue'er will be killed, and the danger of the kingdom will be solved." β
"Get out!" If it weren't for the desk, Ye Gucheng would have kicked it over.
If Li Yue'er does not deal with it as soon as possible, the ministers are afraid that the kingdom will riot again, and at that time, all the people will gather in the royal capital, and the rebels will take advantage of the chaos to start an incident, and the kingdom will be truly doomed. β
"Whoever dares to mess around, I will kill whomever I want. Ye Gucheng pointed at Zhang Yi angrily and said: "Zhang Yi, I will tell you clearly, for the sake of Yue'er, if necessary, I will not hesitate to kill every opponent, even if the kingdom collapses, I, Ye Gucheng, will not hesitate." β
Even though Zhang Yi knew that Ye Gucheng was unreasonable many times, he couldn't imagine that his attitude was so resolute, how confused he was to destroy a country for one person! Suddenly he exclaimed sadly: "Commander, you don't hesitate to kill the people and destroy the country for the sake of Miss Yue'er, but have you ever thought about it, the subjects of Huaxia Kingdom, which one is not generous and righteous to defend the kingdom! The commander is not wrong, and the subjects are not wrong! Please think twice! Don't act impulsively. β
"Get out!"
"Commander-in-chiefγγγγγγ β
"Get out! Zhang Yi, I told you to get out, didn't you hear? Someone, where are you dying? Get out of here. β
With a roar, several palace guards rushed in.
"Drag it out, drag me out, without my order, Zhang Yi is not allowed to step into the harem for another half step. Ye Gucheng's body trembled because of extreme anger.
"Commander, Commander, think twice! Zhang Yi continued to cry out under the pull of the palace guards until it subsided.
Ye Gucheng's face was blue, and he suddenly overturned the desk, and the sundries were scattered all over the ground.
Li Yueli stepped into the hall, bent down and picked it up silently, picking it up, picking it up, tears falling silently.
When Ye Gucheng saw this scene, his heart was even more sad, the monarch of a country, the commander of the three armies, the scenery in front of the people is infinite, but what is the use! In the end, he is not controlled by others everywhere!
Li Yueli put the desk in place, put the messy clutter in place, and grinned. "Husband, let's go eat!"
Ye Gucheng looked at his beloved woman who forced him to laugh, and he felt extremely guilty in his heart, he knew that Li Yueli must have heard something, but he didn't say it, he didn't say it, it was to not embarrass him.
On the corridor, two figures walked side by side, their pace was gentle, and the atmosphere was depressing.
"Yueli... β
"Hmm!"
"What if... I mean, if, if I want to return to the mountains and forests, are you willing to accompany me?"
Ye Gucheng didn't know why he suddenly remembered Xuanyuan Xiu, but when he said this, Xuanyuan Xiu's smiling face appeared in his mind, he had always forgotten the other party's face, and it was not until this moment that he knew that his memory was still fresh, and then, his heart began to hurt again.
Li Yueli's pace stopped suddenly, and after a long time, she said bitterly: "Husband, we have no way to retreat! If you are no longer the commander of Huaxia Kingdom, without the protection of the army, the temple and those who hold a grudge against you will definitely not let us live in peace and stability." β
Ye Gucheng didn't know that he was just a simple extravagant hope, and he couldn't imagine that even this extravagant hope was gone!
No matter how difficult it is in the future, how difficult the road is, Yueli will always accompany her husband to go down, if this road is destined to be bumpy, we will move away from the boulder and step on the mountain road together, no matter what decision the husband makes, Yueli will continue to support, including Yue'er!"
Ye Gucheng looked at the beautiful side face blankly, his heart felt as if he had been hit by something, it was very painful, but it was extremely warm.
In his life, the killing is too heavy, and it is not an exaggeration to divide the body of five horses into a mustard for crimes!
But he was lucky, every girl he met was exceptionally beautiful!
Ye Gucheng slowly stretched out his right hand and took the warm palm that was as white as jade, softly, like a treasure!
"Let's go!Yue'er should be in a hurry!" Ye Gucheng's eyes were extremely firm in his calm tone, he had already decided to protect the life he had now at all costs!
Li Yueli smiled lightly and took a brisk step together.
Public opinion is the strongest leavening agent, no matter in any era, it is always an indisputable fact that three people become tigers.
The commander suffered from the possession of demons and lost his mind, protected the generals, punished the good ministers, and abolished the law.
This rumor is like a locust passing through the country, and wherever it passes, people are boiling and the whole country is shocked.
The slogan of punishing demons and evil, protecting the law began to sound among the people, but the difference is that this time, it is more violent than before.
As Zhang Yi expected, countless subjects gathered in the royal capital from all over the country.
The common people of the royal capital also rarely burst out with unparalleled strength, one by one without fear of life and death to flock to the palace, if it weren't for Zhang Yi's early vigilance, he urgently deployed troops to strengthen the defense, but he was afraid that he would really break through the defense and pour into the harem to pull Li Yue'er out, and at that time, with Ye Gucheng's temperament, there must be a river of blood.
Even so, Zhang Yi still felt deeply powerless, he knew that the people would only lose control because they were afraid of losing their current lives.
It's a pity that the kingdom that is in a mess doesn't know that on the distant border, a big war related to the death is about to break out.
