Chapter 1380: A Difficult Choice
Following Li Cheng's order, the senior generals of the North Korean New Army got up from their sleep one after another, hurried to Li Cheng's residence, and were surprised to see Kim Jong-rui with a cold expression in the living room.
Those high-ranking generals were very surprised by the appearance of Kim Zongrui, no one expected that Kim Zongrui would appear here, you must know that Kim Zongrui has now been removed from the post of deputy commander of the DPRK Metropolitan Division, the so-called not in his position does not seek his own government, it stands to reason that Kim Zongrui is not the kind of person who arbitrates power.
Besides, it was already midnight, which made Jin Zongrui's appearance a little out of place, and it seemed a little weird.
Because Jin Zongrui was very majestic in the army, Jin Zongrui didn't open his mouth, and those senior generals naturally didn't dare to ask casually, and sat in the living room one by one, secretly guessing Jin Zongrui's intention.
At the same time, Li Cheng's guards arrived from the barracks in full armor and poured into the living room to control the situation on the spot, which made the senior generals confused, looking at each other, not knowing what was happening.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this official is a person who has been dismissed, and he should not have appeared in the military camp, but now that King Daming Zhong is in danger and in danger, this official can't turn a blind eye, so he came here with a cheeky skin."
After the senior generals of the new Korean army arrived, Jin Zongrui glanced around at everyone with a serious expression, and said coldly, "I hope you can help this official to rescue Prince Zhong from danger!" ”
"Something happened to Lord Zhong!"
Hearing this, there was a "boom" in the living room, and the high-ranking generals at the scene were stunned one after another, and no one could have imagined that Li Yuntian would encounter danger in Seoul, where 20,000 Ming troops and 20,000 Korean new troops were stationed.
"Come on, arrest them to the official, and kill them if they resist!" Just when those generals were secretly speculating, Jin Zongrui stretched out his hand and pointed at the round-faced military attache and others standing aside, and shouted with a cold expression.
At this moment, the living room was quiet in an instant, and people looked at Jin Zongrui in amazement, and they didn't react for a while, not knowing why Jin Zongrui wanted to arrest his entourage.
"They are rebels who want to murder the loyal prince, coerce the official to come here, and still don't take them down!" Seeing that everyone at the scene was stunned, Jin Zongrui shouted again.
"Quick! Get them. Li Cheng finally reacted at this time, pointing at the round-faced military attache and others and shouting, no wonder it had been this strange round-faced military attache who had been speaking before, it turned out that Jin Zongrui was controlled, so he asked him to transfer the guards.
The guards in the living room rushed to the round-faced military attache and the others when they heard this, and in three or two clicks, the round-faced military attache and his party were pressed to the ground and firmly controlled.
"Lord Jin, don't you think about your wife and children?" The round-faced military attache who was pressed to the ground by everyone struggled desperately, and shouted angrily, "Lord Kim, it was you who buried North Korea, and it was you who asked for the lives of those relatives, you will definitely regret it!" ”
"This official has already thought about it, if giving up this official's family can save North Korea's family, then this official is willing to pay this price."
Jin Zongrui's face couldn't help but change a few times when he heard this, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes, and then he waited expressionlessly for the round-faced military attaché, "Your wishful thinking is wrong, this official admires the character of the loyal prince, how can he be in the same stream with you?" ”
"Lord Jin, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and you will definitely be spurned by future generations......" The round-faced military attaché's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his eyes looked a little strange when he looked at Jin Zongrui, and then shouted at Jin Zongrui.
As soon as the words fell, one of the guards in front of him punched the round-faced military attaché in the lower abdomen, and the round-faced military attaché's face suddenly showed a painful look, and his mouth was closed.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the people of the Inner Guards are opposite, they colluded with the Japanese Kou to attack the Martial Arts Hall Office at night, and the loyal prince is now in danger."
Jin Zongrui didn't pay attention to the round-faced military attaché's abuse, and coldly glanced at the stunned crowd at the scene and said in a deep voice:
"In order to prevent the reinforcements of the Ming army from going to the rescue office, they thought of this official and threatened this official with his family, and in the past two years, you must know that he is a good prince, and he must not have an accident in Seoul, otherwise we will become sinners in North Korea!"
"May I take the lead of the great man!" Hearing this, the generals at the scene glanced at each other, and then bowed to Jin Zongrui and said that only Jin Zongrui could make up his mind at this moment.
"This officer has decided that in order to avoid misunderstandings, all new troops are not allowed to leave the camp." Seeing this, Jin Zongrui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and gave an order in a deep voice, "In addition, quickly send someone to contact the Ming army in the city, and inform the Ming army commander of the internal guards and the people who are going to attack the division office, so that they can take precautions as soon as possible!" ”
"Remember, you must find the commander of the army!" Saying that, Jin Zongrui couldn't help but deliberately emphasize.
To be honest, he doesn't know the bottom of his heart now, God knows if Pu Liang and others have colluded with the forces in the Ming Dynasty and want to kill Li Yuntian's life.
Therefore, the best choice now is to stand still, and inform the generals of the Ming army, it is obvious that the generals who lead the Ming army must be Li Yuntian's descendants, so as to win his trust, lest mistakes in the chaos make some people with ill intentions take the opportunity to make trouble, in that case it will be bad.
"If you don't do what Lord Jin tells you to do, you must find the commander of the Ming army!" Hearing this, Li Cheng also reacted, knowing that Jin Zongrui was acting safely, so he hurriedly yelled at the guards on the side.
"Quick, go to Lord Jin's house quickly, and be sure to rescue your family!" Then, Li Cheng thought of something, and once again hurriedly ordered, you must know that Jin Zongrui's family is still being controlled by gangsters.
"No need, Lord Kim's family is very safe." At this moment, the guards who could not be on the side answered, and a crisp voice came from outside the door.
Jin Zongrui and Li Cheng were stunned when they heard this, their eyes showed a look of surprise, the two of them were too familiar with this strange sounding voice, its owner was Yun Na's adjutant next to Li Yuntian, could it be that Yun Na came here?
But how is this possible? There is still a long distance between the Ming Dynasty and the Seoul Division of the Wutang and the headquarters of the North Korean New Army, and even if someone in the New Army sends a message to Li Yuntian, it is impossible for Yunna to come so quickly.
Unless...... Unless Yun Na has been in the barracks of the new army for a long time, it's just that Li Cheng and the others don't know, you must know that the dormitories of those instructors of the Ming Army's military attache regiment are together, and it is very easy to hide a few people.
Under the surprised gaze of Jin Zongrui and others, Yun Na entered the living room surrounded by a group of Ming army instructors, which made Jin Zongrui and Li Cheng shocked and hurriedly led the generals on the scene to greet each other.
"I wonder what happened to the adjutant?" After arching his hand to Yun Na, Jin Zongrui suppressed the shock in his heart and asked.
"Lord Jin, the prince has already known about the internal guards, so it has already been arranged, and the adult's family has been successfully rescued, so don't worry about it." Yun Na bowed slightly to Jin Zongrui, smiled and said, "Your Excellency can put righteousness first in a critical moment, and this official admires it very much, and will definitely tell the truth to the prince." ”
"Wang ...... The prince already knew? Jin Zongrui was taken aback when he heard this, and looked at Yun Na with a stunned expression, never expecting that Li Yuntian would already know about it.
"The prince has long received a private conspiracy from Pu Liang and others, vainly trying to obstruct the annexation of North Korea to the Ming Dynasty, so he has been on guard for a long time."
Yun Na nodded, and explained to Jin Zongrui in an orderly manner, "Every move of Pu Liang and the others has been transmitted to the prince, and the prince has already controlled enough evidence to arrest him and put him in prison, but the prince has always loved talents, and thinks that Pu Liang and others are the future pillars of North Korea, although there are mistakes, as long as they can be changed, it is very good." ”
"It's a pity that Pu Liang and others lived up to the expectations of the prince, not only hijacked the adults but also colluded with the Japanese and wanted to kill the prince's life, which is really suffocating." As she spoke, Yun Na turned around and shook her head regretfully.
Jin Zongrui's face immediately turned a little pale, and he felt uneasy in his heart, he was sure that Li Yuntian must have known about Pu Liang's visit to see him, maybe even the list of things, and he might be regarded as Pu Liang's accomplice if he pressed the list and did not report it.
"Lord Jin, the prince said, if you are enough of the city gate officials, come back and work in the Dusi Yamen with peace of mind, and everything in the past will be written off!" Seeing that Jin Zongrui's face was not good, Yun Na knew that he must have thought too much, so she said with a smile, deliberately accentuating the pronunciation on the "one-stroke write-off".
"A write-off?" Sure enough, Jin Zongrui heard the meaning of Yun Na's words, and after hearing that he could return to the Dusi Yamen, his eyes lit up for a moment, and then he looked at Yun Na with some confusion, not knowing why Li Yuntian did this.
"Lord Jin, the prince said that the lord has been reborn after experiencing tonight's incident, and I hope that I can abandon the distractions in my heart and serve the court wholeheartedly for the benefit of the people." Yun Na knew that Jin Zongrui couldn't accept the facts in front of him for a while, so she explained quietly.
"Reborn from the ashes!" Jin Zongrui understood what Yun Na meant, and the look on his face couldn't help but become a little embarrassed and lonely.
The meaning of Li Yuntian's words is very obvious, using "a write-off" and "rebirth from the ashes" to make Jin Zongrui break off the entanglement with the Korean royal family and serve the Ming Dynasty wholeheartedly.
Jin Zongrui never imagined that Li Yuntian would use him again, and he felt a trace of excitement in his heart, followed by endless bitterness, he was completely defeated by Li Yuntian this time, and he had no room to refuse the olive branch extended by Li Yuntian, but he didn't want to be a city gate official for the rest of his life.
"It turns out that everything is under the control of Lord Zhong!" Thinking that he had been nervous for most of the night, a wry smile flashed at the corner of Jin Zongrui's mouth, he found that Li Yuntian was much more powerful than he thought, he was not Li Yuntian's opponent at all, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.
