Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Knife on the Desk (7)
Ji Ru hasn't spoken yet, but as long as she is here, she already has absolute pressure, which can make the generals around her have a subtle jealousy mentality, although that jealousy is not very strong.
Guan Kuo looked at the veteran and said in a calm voice: "So, what does that mean, general?" ”
"We suspect that you did something heinous to General Zhenwei, and then stole Qin Kill and No Trace." The veteran slowly stood up, and the whole person released an awe-inspiring momentum.
This crime is too big, although many people want to impose it on Guan Kuo, but they know very well that it is unlikely, and they don't have so much courage, but they didn't expect this veteran to smash it so strongly, it's really a bit appalling.
The surroundings were shocked, and even Wang Du, who had always had no hesitation, felt very surprised.
Li Xianyue frowned, even he felt that the veteran had gone too far this time.
The martyrdom of General Zhenwei is a tragic and sad thing, but at the same time it makes people feel awe-inspiring, but in this way, some dark things are imposed, and it instantly adds such an unglorious color, which is not allowed by their Northern Tang Army.
He wanted to open his mouth to rebuke something, but Guan Kuo spoke first:
"I'm sorry, you said that I have no evidence and witnesses to prove that Qin Kill and Wuji were passed down to me by General Zhenwei, so, you question me so much, what about your evidence, how do you prove that your nonsense is true and valid, and how can you prove that my loyalty to Datang is false?"
"You just suspect, I can also suspect that you are disloyal to the Tang Dynasty, and want to stir up some turmoil on the banquet, sow discord, and let the Northern Tang Army, which should have been united, collapse by itself."
His series of words were like whips struck the veteran's body one after another, it was a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, so it was very painful.
Ji said that she would support Guan Kuo, but she didn't speak for a long time, until now, she laughed a little excitedly.
"Guan Kuo is right, although Her Royal Highness the Princess is from the Great Wu, not from your Northern Tang Dynasty, but even Her Royal Highness the Princess can't look at it, this old general, what are your intentions in sowing discord so much?"
The veteran glanced at Ji Ru with an ugly face, but because of the identity of the other party, it was difficult for him to attack at all, and finally spread his anger on Guan Kuo's body, and scolded: "Guan Kuo, you don't want to spew blood!" ”
"Then why aren't you a bloody spurt!?" Guan Kuo took Qin Kill on the desk in his hand, left his seat, and took a step forward.
"Brush—"
If the matter is big, it will be very difficult to clean up, and all the people, including Bai Congyun Wang Du and many other generals, stood up and took a step forward, no one knew whether they were going to make a move against Guan Kuo or preparing to stop the action that some people might launch.
A battle, or some bad conflict, is about to break out, and the moment in the field is silent, but at the same time fiery.
The red armor was dazzling in the firelight, and the veins on it smelled of iron and blood.
Xue Zhao stood up calmly, his eyes were level, his figure was tall, he was more or less crowded, and finally came to the middle of the crowd.
It's just a few simple actions, and he naturally becomes the center of everyone.
Guan Kuo once said that compared with Jin An, goods have to be thrown away, and people have to die compared to people, and he is very reluctant to admit that he is also like this compared to Xue Zhao.
"Qin Kill is General Zhenwei's weapon, and now Guan Kuo says that it is his," when he said this, he didn't look at Guan Kuo at all, "There is no evidence." ”
Guan Kuo glanced at his well-proportioned back, squinted his eyes, and then didn't say anything.
The veteran nodded and said, "General Zhenwei was martyred, and his saber appeared on Guan Kuo's body for no reason, which is very incredible, I think there is no one here who will not suspect the secrets that may be hidden there." ”
"What's more......" the veteran said again, "A treasure knife should be matched with someone worthy of it, such as you, Xue Zhao, young Junyan, I think, there is no more suitable candidate than you in the entire Northern Tang Dynasty, as for Guan Kuo, it is really ridiculous." ”
Xue Zhao waved his hand and said: "No merit is not a matter of success, although Qin is good, but it has nothing to do with me Xue Zhao, what I just want to say is that you also can't explain any evidence that Guan Kuo is unfavorable to General Zhenwei, and now that the Tuwu people have been defeated, it is a day for the whole country to celebrate, so it's not good." ”
Guan Kuo actually didn't understand why Xue Zhao would stand up, but of course he wouldn't think that it was Xue Zhao who wanted to speak for himself, Xue Zhao might just be for the overall interests of the Northern Tang Dynasty, for this banquet, as for Guan Kuo, it had nothing to do with him at all.
It's like Xue Zhao didn't even look at him.
"Xue Zhao, young man, you have a point, but it's impossible for us to let some evil people take possession of General Zhenwei's legacy just because of this, right? At the banquet, we can not worry about Guan Kuo, but he must hand over Qin Kill first, and then there will be no trace. The veteran said.
The comparison between Guan Kuo and Xue Zhao is really unfair, Xue Zhao stood in the center of everyone, facing the eyes of many people, and that gaze made his entire body seem to exude a kind of brilliance, making him like Li Xiyun, the princess of Guangle, the pride of the Northern Tang Dynasty.
And Guan Kuo can only stand on one side, and on the other side, there are almost all the Northern Tang people in the big tent, which is persecution, anger, and the belief that wants to kill him.
Xue Zhao didn't seem to know all this, and he didn't care about the different attitudes of other people towards him and Guan Kuo, his voice was calm, and he suddenly turned his head, looked at Li Xianyue, who had a solemn expression, and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I think, what decision should you make, right?" ”
Li Xianyue nodded.
"Go back to your seats, today is a banquet, not a place to fight, if you want to fight, there will be opportunities in the future."
Xue Zhao turned around without squinting and walked back to his seat without any hesitation.
Li Xianyue's order, they would have carried it out, but because of what happened today, their execution may be a little unwilling, but Xue Zhao's behavior has a unique effect.
With his departure, all the surrounding generals returned to their places more sincerely.
Guan Kuo turned around and straightened his chest, he was the last.
