Chapter 471: On the Thief Ship (2)
Seeing that Crepe Longan's face changed constantly at what he said, Mo Linglan said in a deep voice,
"Lord Crepe, the rumors outside seem to be about Su Xuanmin and Marquis Xie, but in fact, they are directly pointing to the inhumanity of the royal family, and Your Majesty is mediocre and tyrannical."
"I'm worried...... If this continues, if something happens to the prince, someone will take the opportunity to rebel. ”
The millions of silver taels earned by the Bo family, and even those things that were misappropriated from the military department, as well as the military supplies that have been continuously sent over the years, are enough to build an army of more than 100,000 people.
Once the people behind the scenes take the opportunity to raise troops, and there are people in Beijing to respond, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Xuan Longan didn't know about the affairs in Beijing, let alone that the inside story of the Bo family was so complicated.
He listened to Mo Linglan talk about the stakes, and he only felt that his heart was beating like thunder, and there was a feeling that what Mo Linglan told him was simply pulling him into the pit.
Xuan Longan lowered his eyes and said: "Is Lord Mo too serious, the matter between the Bo family and the second prince has already been decided, this time I am afraid that someone just wants to take the opportunity to murder the prince, how can it be so easy to raise troops......
"Do you think that you are far away in Jingnan, even if the sky changes in Beijing, it has nothing to do with you?"
Mo Linglan saw through Crepe Longan's evasive thoughts at a glance, and directly pierced it.
Looking at the uncomfortable on the face of Xuan Longan, he couldn't help but sneer,
"Don't say that under the nest, Ann has finished his eggs, just say why they chose to do it in Jingnan, and even messed up Jingzhou City first, don't you understand in your heart?"
"Do you believe it or not, you are lucky to stand by today, once there is a change in Beijing, in order to make Your Majesty's mediocre name more victorious, the armies of the cities in the south will not be able to serve the king, and they will even join forces with the Southern Wei to attack Jingnan again, so as to contain the troops in the south."
"Sima Yu is dead, and Jingzhou now doesn't even have a garrison general."
"Could it be that Lord Crepe should also learn from Lord Su, and when the Southern Wei soldiers come to the city, he will personally go to the city wall with the body and blood of a civil official, fight the Southern Wei Dynasty, and protect the safety of the people in this city?"
Crepe Longan's face changed: "Master Mo, you are too alarmist, joining forces with Southern Wei will undoubtedly conspire with the tiger, even if someone really wants to rebel, it will not be to such a point......"
"Joke!"
Mo Linglan sneered at his words, "They have already rebelled, and the people in the world who do not hesitate to make trouble in order to seize the imperial power are not happy, do you still think that they can have a bottom line and even care about the lives of the people?" ”
"They just wanted to take the lives of Qi Wenfu and Su Ruan, so they could bury gunpowder on the dock, ignoring how many innocent people there were on the dock, you, Sima Yu, and the officers and soldiers who were buried in it and the people of Jingnan."
"Did they take care of it when they blew up the docks?"
Mo Linglan looked up at Crepe Longan, his eyes were full of coldness,
"You also said that you are seeking skin with the tiger, everything can be given up under the imperial power, haven't you heard of the plan to lure the wolf and drive the tiger?"
"As long as you can contain the troops of Nandi and let them successfully seize the imperial power, not to mention the people of this city, even if Jingzhou and even the entire Jingnan are given to the Southern Wei Dynasty, what can you do, if he has the ambition to lead the troops to recapture it, even if he is incompetent, this Jingnan is lost in the hands of you Crepe Longan, and the name left in the history books will only be you and Your Majesty, what does it have to do with the new emperor?"
"Lord Crepe, you underestimate human nature under ambition and greed."
Listening to Mo Linglan's words, he wanted to say that he was alarmist, he wanted to say that he was exaggerating, and he wanted to say that he was just thinking about everything in the direction of the impossible for the sake of speculation.
But Mo Linglan's every word and sentence was like a magic spell constantly recalling in his ears, and even drilling into his head, even if he wanted to listen or believe it, he couldn't stop it.
He remembered the explosion on the docks, the hundreds of people who had died inside, the rumors outside, and the desperation of struggling to survive in the water for the past few days.
I couldn't say a word of rebuttal when it came to my lips.
Seeing his embarrassed expression, Mo Linglan tightened his face a little, and said slowly: "Take 10,000 steps back, Lord Crepe, have you ever thought about how many people will die once the war breaks out?" How many people will be separated from their wives and their families will be ruined? ”
"The change of imperial power is not so easy, it is piled up with the bones of countless people."
"Those people once ignored your life and death, and almost turned you into a person in the sea of corpses and blood, don't you hate it at all?"
"Or do you want to watch Jingnan, which you have worked so hard to restore prosperity, fall into the desperate situation of countless corpses and injuries again?"
"A hundred years from now, when everyone mentions you, they will say the last sentence, look, he is the minister who lost the gate of the Great Chen Kingdom and gave up the entire Jingnan of the Great Chen Territory to the Southern Wei Dynasty?"
"Enough!"
Crepe Longan was tightly grasped in the palm of his hand by Mo Linglan's words.
Hate?
Of course he hates!
Although he was not rich and wealthy in the first half of his life, he went all the way, and the most difficult thing he encountered in his life was that he was inexplicably sent to Jingnan and became the governor of Jingnan.
How much effort did he spend, smuggling with people with his head, and even doing some things that shouldn't be done to revitalize this Jingnan and restore the previous prosperity of seven or eighty percent, but he hadn't lived a good life for a few days, enjoying the glory brought by this Zhizhou, and trouble followed.
Why did those people choose Jingnan if they wanted to make trouble?
He was almost killed.
Thinking of Sima Yu who died on the dock, as well as those officers and soldiers and innocent people, and the words Mo Linglan said.
After being silent for a long time, Xuan Longan pursed his lips and raised his head to Mo Linglan and said:
"What can I do?"
……
Mo Linglan and Crepe Longan have been talking for a long time, and no one knows what they said inside.
It's just that when Xiao Mian's wound was cleaned up, when the people below came to pass the word, they saw that Xuan Longan's face was stiff, and when he looked at Mo Linglan, he looked like a madman.
Crepe Longan really felt that Mo Linglan was crazy.
He always thought that people like Mo Linglan and Qi Wenfu were all from famous families, and they were serious people with upright roots.
But who knew that this guy was so evil.
Thinking of what Mo Linglan had just said to him, Xuan Longan only felt a chill on his back, grinded his teeth and said: "You want me to die, if someone finds out, I won't have enough to cut off ten heads!" ”
After Mo Linglan talked to Crepe Longan, he regained a little bit of the wanton attitude he had in Beijing in the past, and when he heard this, he turned his head slightly sideways and said to Crepe Longan:
"What are you afraid of, it's not the first time for you."
