Chapter 15: The Green King
No one can judge the emperor.
But what if Champion Hou is still alive?
Can he?
This is indeed a question worth digging into.
Stopped everyone directly.
But soon, the British Duke reacted.
He opened the door and shook his head, "No ifs." ”
Then he left the room.
"yes, there are no ifs."
"The marshal is alive, and there may still be hope, but unfortunately, the marshal is no longer there."
"Old Song, you have to face reality."
In twos and threes, half of the meritorious veterans of the vertical arch war were gone.
Half of it remains.
Looking at the half of the people who stayed, Song Hui's father was a little surprised.
More people stayed than he expected.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Song Huifu asked.
"Old Song, do you know something?"
"The marshal's body was not found, although it is more likely that there are no bones, but ......"
"The marshal is still alive?"
Father Song Hui looked at their excited expressions and didn't know whether to tell the truth or not.
Because he wasn't sure if these people were acting out or really wishing the marshal was still alive.
Ten years is enough time to change so many things.
Despite this, he actually revealed a lot of information, intentionally or unintentionally: "What can the marshal do if he is alive? ”
"If the marshal lives, then of course he will follow the marshal."
"My old Cheng must also follow the marshal, and the days of galloping on the field under the marshal are the most enjoyable times for me."
"If the marshal has the final say in this world, the world will be much better."
Champion Hou's support is obviously still there.
Although I don't know whether it's true or not, Song Hui's father actually has a feeling of relief for Muzhi.
He asked a realistic question: "If the marshal is alive, it means that we have to choose between the marshal and His Majesty, are you really ready for this?" ”
There was silence in the room.
After a while, several firm voices rang out: "My life belongs to the marshal, and the marshal's words can be taken at any time." ”
"As long as the marshal speaks his mouth, I will risk my life and follow him."
"Old Song, is the marshal really alive?"
Song Hui's father did not answer.
He didn't dare to say.
Because he didn't know if he did confirm it, it would lead to unpredictable consequences.
But Makiyuki said it for him.
"I'm still alive."
An unfamiliar voice rang out in the room.
The crowd was shocked, stunned, and then lost their temper.
It wasn't until this moment that they realized that there were two other people in the room.
And they didn't realize it all the time.
In other words, all their discussions just now, these two people heard them all.
After seeing the appearance of these two people, the faces of the people present changed suddenly.
There was a stranger they didn't know.
But the people who stood next to that stranger, they were all familiar.
"Plum blossoms."
"When did you come?"
"Old Song, this won't be a game set up by you and Your Majesty, right?"
Everyone panicked.
Because they saw plum blossoms.
The plum blossom of the plum blossom inner guard.
The second plum blossom in the world.
The Plum Blossom Inner Guard is formed by the Plum Blossom himself, which is a great cultivator who breaks through the Nine Realms.
Although they are all battle-hardened, none of them are confident that they can escape in front of Meihua.
What's more, Meihua is responsible for keeping the Empress safe and is one of the Empress's most trusted people.
She appeared here and heard those words, which means that the empress heard those words.
Song Hui's father was also shocked.
Looking at Mu Zhi who was standing with the plum blossoms, Song Hui's father was first shocked, then speechless, and finally turned into worship and a wry smile.
"It turns out that even Commander Mei is also the marshal's person."
"What?"
"Marshal?"
"He's a marshal?"
"Impossible, how could the marshal look like this?"
Except for Song Huifu and Meihua, the rest of the people couldn't believe it.
Then it was pierced by Makiyuki.
"Boss Cheng, it doesn't matter if they don't believe it, we already passed the letter a year ago, you pretend to be a fart."
Song Hui's father looked at Cheng Da in shock.
Cheng Da scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly: "I only know that you are still alive, Marshal, and your appearance has changed greatly, and I don't know that you have become what you are now." ”
"It's not too late to know, it's not a pleasant experience, so I won't go into detail with you. In short, I didn't die. ”
Song Hui's father confirmed Muzhi's identity, and Cheng Da also said that he did have a correspondence with Muzhi, as for Meihua, her appearance itself represents her own position and the authenticity of Muzhi's identity.
In the whole world, in addition to the champion Hou and the empress, who can let the plum blossoms accompany him.
"Marshal, is your cultivation really all gone?" Although Cheng Da already knew about it in the letter, after seeing it with his own eyes, he still had very mixed emotions.
Mu Zhi nodded: "In that kind of situation at the beginning, it was already a fluke to survive, and it was inevitable to pay the price of cultivating and losing." Just now, thanks to the plum blossom blocking my qi by my side, otherwise you would have discovered me a long time ago. ”
"Commander May, when did you hook up with the marshal?" Cheng Da asked everyone's thoughts.
Plum Blossom, a super genius who rose in the Vertical Arch War, has an unparalleled talent in martial arts, second only to the champion Hou.
Because of the relationship between women, Meihua had a particularly good relationship with Princess Changping at that time.
After Princess Changping ascended the throne and became emperor, Meihua also gained the trust of the empress, and the plum blossom internal guard formed by her was the sharpest knife in the hands of the empress.
If there is anyone in the world who is least likely to betray the empress, it is likely to be plum blossoms.
But plum blossoms appeared beside Makiyuki at this moment.
The position speaks for itself.
Nodding to everyone, Meihua explained simply: "I was originally sent by the marshal to protect Princess Changping. ”
"Then ......"
"By the time I knew it, everything had already happened. I thought about killing the Empress and avenging the marshal, but before I could do it, I received a letter from the marshal. ”
Meihua looked at Makiyuki: "If it weren't for that letter, it's likely that I would be a dead man by now." ”
Regardless of whether she succeeds in killing the empress or not, just killing the emperor will definitely end her up with death.
Mu Zhi shook the hand of the plum blossom: "It's just to kill an emperor, and it's not worth taking your life." ”
"So, Commander Mei led you to form the Plum Blossom Internal Guard, and stayed in Ouchi to protect His Majesty's safety, all at the behest of the marshal?"
"Yes."
The people present suddenly looked at Muzhi with the eyes of Gao Shan.
A marshal is a marshal.
Even the Empress's personal bodyguards have long since rebelled.
From the very beginning of this war, the scales have been tilted in favor of Makiyuki.
Meihua looked at Song Hui's father: "Although Wu Ying is my deputy, she is directly under the management of Princess Changping. In the words of Princess Changping, I am her friend, and friends can't be used to do dirty things, so many things Changping will explain to Wu Ying to do, and I won't ask.
I expected her to kill you, and I informed the marshal in advance, but I don't know exactly when she will do it. ”
In fact, there is no need for her to explain, Song Hui's father also believes that she is not involved.
Father Song Hui smiled bitterly: "If Commander Mei wants to kill me, I won't be able to escape even if I have nine lives." And I don't have anything worth being designed, Commander Mei rest assured, there is a debtor and a debtor, I won't be too careful. ”
"It's good that you can understand, there are only a few old people left, and the marshal doesn't want everyone to deviate from morality, and I don't want to."
The words of plum blossoms made everyone else complex.
"Marshal, the British Duke ......"
Cheng Da didn't know what to say anymore.
Makiyuki was calm: "Everyone has their own choice, and there is no need to force it. ”
Cheng Da smiled bitterly: "I'm not forcing it, I'm worried that you will kill them." ”
"They have no grievances against me, what do I want their lives for? Unless they're on my side. ”
Makiyuki does not underestimate the feelings of these people for him, but he also does not underestimate the influence of the original owner.
"They all now prefer to believe that I am dead, so they follow the empress with all their hearts. If I had shown my true identity, these people would not have come out against me. ”
"What if they insist on being your enemy?"
"Then you must have the consciousness that you are my enemy."
Makiyuki is not a murderer, and he is not a virgin.
Don't trouble him, he doesn't bother to take the initiative to stir up trouble.
But knowing his existence and continuing to be his enemy, there is nothing to say.
On the battlefield back then, they owed the original owner the grace of saving their lives, and it was not the original owner who owed them.
Cheng Da also wanted to plead for his comrades-in-arms, but was stopped by Meihua: "Boss Cheng, the premise of generosity is to become the winner first, and we haven't won yet." ”
Cheng Da was stunned, and then blushed a little.
He forcibly argued: "With the marshal here, how can we lose?" ”
"That's true in theory, but I've already lost once, and the woman who beat me was the one who beat me. So don't be superstitious about me, I'll lose too. ”
Mu Zhi looked at Cheng Da: "Boss Cheng, you are in charge of the garrisons in the capital, can you control them all?" ”
Cheng Da hammered his chest with his fist and swore solemnly: "Don't worry, marshal, leave it to me." ”
Mu Zhi nodded: "Very good, there are you in the garrison in the capital, and there are plum blossoms in the palace, if we want to attack, at least the capital is under our control." ”
Meihua reminded: "But the power of the army stationed outside the capital is in the hands of the British duke. ”
Mu Zhi sighed faintly: "Plum blossom, with your understanding of the old general, if we do it, will he lead the army to serve the king?" ”
"It's hard to say, the British Duke is a very practical person, if Princess Changping is still alive, he should be the king of Qin. But if Princess Changping had died by then, he should have surrendered with the character of a British duke. ”
"Marshal, you can't raise troops." Song Hui's father couldn't listen anymore: "Once the anti-flag is erected, the world will immediately be full of smoke, and there will be many careerists who will set themselves up as kings in the name of you or Your Majesty, and divide one side, and the world is likely to return to the war years, and hundreds of people will die innocently." ”
It was because of this concern that he was at the beginning, so even though he was very unhappy with Muzhi in his heart, he still didn't want to stand on Muzhi's side.
Once Pandora's box is opened, there will really be endless consequences.
Mu Zhi waved his hand: "As long as the empress does not resist, of course I will not pull the flag and rebel, force is the last choice." ”
Song Hui's father: "...... How could His Majesty not resist? ”
"Then she won't be able to resist."
"Your Majesty has always been a character who would rather be broken than broken."
"That's when she didn't encounter a real jade shatter."
Mu Zhi said in a deep voice: "As long as seventy percent of the civil and military ministers are on my side, what jade will the empress take?" ”
"Marshal, you can now control seventy percent of the civil and military ministers?"
"Not yet, but with your help, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Makinoki looked at the crowd.
"Do you want to do something for me?"
Only Song Hui's father hesitated for a moment.
The others agreed without hesitation.
"Everything is at the command of the marshal."
"Marshal, where you point out, we will fight."
"What are we going to do, what do we command?"
Song Hui's father looked left and right, and found that he didn't have to waste his feelings.
He has been dismissed.
Even if you want to do something, you can't do it.
Mu Zhi was not polite, and directly ordered: "With your qualifications and prestige, there are small groups close to you around you, control all these people, and let them stand on my side, is there a problem?" ”
"No problem."
Mu Zhi nodded: "If you have a problem, go to the natural residence to ask me for help, ask for money to give money, ask people to give people, and make sure that nothing goes wrong." ”
Song Hui's father raised an objection: "Marshal, if we often go back and forth to the natural residence, it is easy to expose your existence and be discovered by the empress in advance. ”
Makiyuki smiled: "Do you think I'll worry about this?" ”
Song Hui's father: "......"
"The Empress must not want to see me, but on the contrary, I am looking forward to seeing her soon. If it's really discovered, then it's discovered, and it's just launched in advance. In fact, even if I do it now, I am 60% sure that I can succeed in revenge. ”
"Marshal, do you want to inform King Qing?"
Hearing the name Qingwang, Muzhi's expression changed slightly.
The others looked at each other as well.
Qingwang, in the Vertical Arch War, he was the only clan in the royal family that could be compared to Princess Changping.
Originally, there were more people who were optimistic about Qingwang's accession to the throne because he was a man.
But in the end, Princess Changping defeated King Qing and ascended to the throne.
Qingwang's transformation from a gentleman to an iron-blooded commander is all under the command of the champion Hou, and the friendship between the two is also known to the world.
At the beginning, the Qingwang went deep behind the enemy and was surrounded by the demon army, and it was the champion Hou who fought for 3,000 miles and rescued the dying Qingwang.
Later, in the last battle of the champion Hou, Qingwang was thousands of miles away, but when he heard the bad news, he did not hesitate to lose the origin and turned into thousands of miles overnight, just to see the last side of the champion Hou.
But he still didn't see it.
He was on the battlefield and knelt for a whole month.
A month later, Princess Changping ascended the throne.
King Qing was demoted to Qingzhou by an edict of the previous emperor, and he could not return to Beijing without an edict.
If anyone is the most unacceptable to the death of the champion Hou, it is the Qingwang.
And the reason why Muzhi's expression also changed slightly was because Qingwang was originally the second male lead in the book "Seeking Saints".
What the original owner originally wanted to do was to assist King Qing to ascend to the throne.
As for now......
