Chapter 5 Knowing the Righteousness
He grieved in his heart, and shouted angrily towards the gloomy sky, and the sound was more than thunder, and the sound was broken by the wind and rain.
I repay the Son of Heaven with my heart, and I surrender my loyalty to my ministers with suspicion.
In deep grief, Murong Chui suddenly made up his mind, he pushed Qi Feng away and walked out the door.
Qi Feng hurriedly rushed forward and hugged Murong Chui again before he went out.
"Lord Wang, even if you enter the palace now and see the saint, he won't listen to your words or two, the princess is a stolen person!" Qi Feng tried his best to persuade Murong Chui, hoping that he would think carefully and focus on the overall situation.
Now Murong Chui was in turmoil, as long as he thought that his wife was suffering all kinds of cruel punishments in a dark, clammy and cold cell, his heart was like a knife.
The torture instruments in the cell, he had seen, were all left over from the Ran Wei period, and each of them could make life worse than death, even a seven-foot man with iron and iron could not survive a few passes.
He really can't imagine, dare not imagine, the situation of his beloved woman being tortured!
"If the saint doesn't know the truth, I should admonish him to death!"
The lightning roared for no reason, as if even the sky was shouting, and the torrential rain hit him in the face fiercely, obscuring his path.
Wind and rain cannot be in the same boat, life and death will be together.
Seeing that Murong Chui had made up his mind, Qi Feng hugged his legs, and the whole person lay in the water, no matter how Murong Chui struggled, he refused to let go.
"Lord Wang, think about the two sons! They're still young! ”
"The emperor has already determined that the princess is guilty, even if you say that the sky is broken, the emperor will not believe you! What you have to do now is to make a clear relationship with the princess and get yourself out of the witch Gu matter, so as to keep the Wu Mansion safe!" ”
Qi Feng's voice was terrible, except for loudly persuading Murong Chui, he really didn't know what else he could do, to prevent the prince from going to the palace to die.
The prince has a deep affection for the princess, even if he knows that going to the palace will not help, he will not do nothing, and watch the princess suffer.
The emperor has always regarded witchcraft as a taboo, once King Wu is involved, I am afraid that the entire palace will be copied and beheaded! He has followed Murong Chui for many years, and he has never left many times in times of crisis, and now he has already seen life and death, but the two sons are still young, and they can't let Wu Wangfu break their roots!
The wind and rain are cold, but the heart of the courtiers is cold.
Murong froze in place, he slowly turned around and looked at the room of his two sons, and his indomitable heart suddenly wavered.
"Lord Wang, the two sons can't live without you! Only if you save them can you protect them! ”
Murong Chui's heart seemed to have been split in half by thunder and lightning in the heavy rain, on one side was his beloved wife who was being tortured, and on the other side were his two young sons, he didn't understand how God could be so cruel and insisted on letting him choose between two beloved.
He closed his eyes in pain, but all he could think about was the picture of Zhao'er being tortured, and that feeling was as if there was a sharp blade cutting at his heart again and again, and he really, really couldn't stand it!
"Qi Feng, you take Ling'er and Bao'er out of the city tonight, the king of Taiyuan at the checkpoint will take care of it for you, and don't come back when you go to Qianqin!"
"My two sons are entrusted to you!" He slowly squatted down, holding Qi Feng's shoulders tightly, and paying for the last concern of his life.
If God still has the slightest mercy, please protect his two children!
"Lord Wang......" Qi Feng couldn't cry anymore, he knew that King Wu had already made a decision, and it was a decision that he couldn't change.
"Qi Feng, this is my decision, I can't abandon Zhao'er for my own safety, I can't do it!"
Don't think about life and death, and don't regret your original intention.
Looking at Murong Chui's determined eyes, Qi Feng was already desperate, but at this time, a mighty figure came in the heavy rain.
When he saw the person coming, Murong Chui could no longer hide the grief in his heart, and all the grief turned into a choked sentence in an instant, "Fourth brother." ”
The man held Murong Chui's shoulder heavily, extremely sad, with his son, without saying a word, and hurting in his heart. He was half the width of his palm higher than the tall Murong Trai, he didn't say anything, he just stood opposite Murong Trai, just every look, every movement, gave this younger brother protection like a mountain.
The heavy rain rushed on the two brothers, but it could not take away their grief and despair for the country.
"The queen personally interrogated, from beginning to end, there was only one question." Murong Ke finally opened his mouth, he knew that he was the only one who could stop Murong Ke from doing stupid things at this time.
Murong Ke paused and didn't continue, he thought that with Murong Chui's intelligence, he should be able to understand what he meant.
Murong drooped his shoulders trembling, extremely sad and angry, looking up to the sky and sighing, but only saw a darkness above his head.
King Wu is the mastermind behind the witch Gu thing?
There must be no doubt about that.
Although he had expected this process for a long time, it was from Murong Ke's mouth that he really faced this cruel reality.
If you want to add sin, why should you do it?
"The princess is indeed ambitious, and she will never give up." Murong Ke looked at Murong Chui and sighed deeply.
The couple is deeply affectionate, and the punishment is difficult to shake in the slightest, moving the world and the world, but it is difficult to change the king's will.
He told Murong Chui all the news he had found, intending to dissuade him, and the princess sacrificed her life to take righteousness, hoping that the king would put the overall situation first.
Hearing this, Murong was like a knife, his eyes were scarlet, and the tears that were more painful than bloodshed swelled in his eyes, tearing him apart from his fearless heart.
She would rather suffer the torture alone than affect him a point, and if he has a wife like this, he has no regrets in this life. Now that the Holy Lord has made a decision, it is in vain for him to enter the palace. When you do what you want, save your wife from trouble.
"Fourth brother, can you help me once?"
"Say it."
****
"Life will be a death, how can it be so poisonous! Don't be convinced! ”
He was not afraid of the Holy Lord's condemnation, but he was afraid that she would suffer in prison.
Fortune and misfortune go hand in hand, life and death depend on each other, and they are not in vain as a husband and wife.
He asked Murong Ke to secretly send someone to bring her a message, "Zhao'er, people will always die, why do you have to suffer like this?" Confess your sins, and let me suffer in your place. ”
Zhao'er, recruit it, don't let yourself suffer anymore!
"How do I love the dead! If you accuse yourself of being wicked and disobedient, insulting your ancestors, and burdening the king, you will not do anything. ”
She would rather die than implicate him in the slightest!
When she was in that damp and cold cell, suffering from flesh and skin, suffering in all kinds of ways, before dying, she could wait for a word from her husband, a vow to exchange life for life, she knew that there was nothing wrong with love and no wrong marriage in this life!
Lord Wang, I'd rather die than let others dirty our Wu Wangfu!
In 358 A.D., the former Yan Empress Kezu Hun falsely accused the Wu princess Duan with the case of witch Gu. King Wu was not implicated and was exempted from responsibility.
Emotional world, Zhishengsheng, Yecheng year, three days of heavy rain, Murong Chui's lifelong tears were dried in those three days.
Eleven years have passed, her voice and smile are still in front of her, his deep grief is still at the tip of his heart, she is the beauty of his life, but also the pain of his life.
Don't say that only ten years is a lifetime, and he can't forget her.
And the blood feud between Wu Wangfu and Kezuhun is endless!
Only now, it's not time for revenge.
Every inch of Dayan's land was built little by little by him and his fourth brother Murong Ke for decades, which carried not only the blood and lives of hundreds of thousands of Xianbei soldiers, but also the hope of the entire country and the people.
When the national crisis is at the head, he should put on armor and go into battle, dare to be the first, save the people from fire and water, and save the country from ups and downs.
If the country is not a country, then the family will not be a family, and even if he avenges his personal vendetta, he cannot be truly liberated.
After thinking about it, he let out a deep sigh.
This extremely weak and calm sigh, the sadness that could not be concealed was hidden behind the sadness, Murong lowered his eyes tightly, and then, his gaze was firm, and said, "Son, I am Yan Chen, now that Da Yan is in danger, how can I stand idly by?" ”
"If you can't let go of your mother's affairs, your father won't force it. You have to protect your younger brothers in Yecheng, if your father is defeated, you don't move the capital to Longcheng with the Queen Mother, and immediately take your younger brothers to Qin State. Qin Heavenly King Fu Jian has admired your ability for many years, and you and your younger brothers will be treated with courtesy when they go to Qin State. You can't go away for the Father, but you can. ”
Murong Ling looked at his father with firm eyes, he knew that his father had already made a decision! Although he sighed in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration, the heroic general in his eyes when he was a child has not changed until now. Although he was unwilling to protect the country for the Kezuhun clan, he was even more unwilling, seeing the country ruined and the city destroyed, he did nothing.
At critical moments, righteousness always prevails over personal enmity.
In the end, there is Xianbei blood flowing in his body, and what he is stepping on is the land of Dayan, and it is the belief of every ordinary soldier to swear to defend his home and country.
He was born as the eldest son, how could he see his father fighting on the battlefield, but he stole another country.
He, Murong Ling, is not such a person, and he can't do such a thing!
"The father has made a decision, and the son should be with him on the battlefield!" The boy held his head high, and he was sure to speak.
Murong looked down at his proud son, and felt relieved in his heart. He is his eldest son, the son of Wu Wangfu, and his invincible vanguard on the battlefield.
His son, who was not only brave and skillful, but also very strategic, was the most outstanding of all his children, and was his most important successor.
His ambitions and ambitions for the rest of his life are pinned on this eldest son. Murong Ling's support, like his sharpest spear, was enough to dominate the field.
"You are the right-hand man of your father, and you will go out with you, Huan Wen will rest!"
The man changed into a long-lost court dress, tied a brocade belt around his waist, and tied his hair with a mink crown, but he still couldn't hide the silver threads between his sideburns. I only sigh that the years are in a hurry, plugging the Great Wall into the empty promise, and the temples in the mirror have been spotted. He looked at his son, Murong Ling immediately handed him a firm look, Murong Ling no longer hesitated, patted his son's shoulder, and strode towards the palace.
"Your Majesty, King Wu asks to see you." Murong Wei was discouraged by the move of the capital, and when he heard that the personal eunuch came to report to Murong Chui asking to see him, he was stunned at first, and then his heart was happy.
King Wu has not entered the court for a long time, and now when he hears the will of moving the capital, he must have come to ask for war.
"Quick!"
"No."
"See Your Majesty." The man knelt in his robe and bowed his head.
When Murong Wei saw King Wu, it was as if he saw Yecheng's last hope, he stood up from the dragon chair and personally came down to help Murong Chui.
"King Wu, please get up."
Murong Chui didn't expect to be treated so politely, and immediately looked a little frightened.
"Your Majesty's great gift, the minister can't afford it."
Although Murong Trai shirked it, Murong Wei still helped him up, and he said to Murong Trai as if he were a family member, "Uncle Huang, we are all a family, what do you mean when you enter the palace this time, you might as well speak up." ”
Murong Chui glanced at Murong Wei and secretly speculated about the holy will, it seemed that Murong Wei already knew his intention. From his words, Murong Trai felt that it seemed that Emperor Yan did not support the relocation of the capital.
He no longer hesitated, kowtowed again, and said heavily, "Your Majesty, when the minister heard the holy will, he wanted to move the capital to Longcheng, but after thinking about it, he thought it was inappropriate. ”
As soon as he heard this, the corners of Murong Wei's mouth secretly pulled out a satisfied smile, and he was reluctant.
It's just that he still pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What does Uncle Huang think is wrong?" ”
"Forgive the minister, Yecheng is the capital of Dayan, the foundation of the ancestors, if we retreat without a fight, the capital will be handed over, the morale of the army will be greatly damaged, and the people's will be greatly lost."
Second, Yecheng is an important military town in the north, Cao Yun runs north and south, west into Shanxi, south to the Central Plains, and is the gateway to the dangerous Hangu Pass, Yecheng is a place where soldiers must fight since ancient times. If you abandon Yecheng, Hangu Pass will be lost, the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River will be difficult to protect, and if you want to advance into the Central Plains, I am afraid that it is hopeless. ”
"Third, although our army has been defeated, the main force still exists, and the cavalry is several times more than the Jin army. Huanwen's 50,000 troops are mostly foot cavalry, and the northern field is invincible to our Dayan Iron Cavalry, and they have traveled thousands of miles, and they have long been tired of soldiers and horses, and our Dayan Iron Cavalry is ready to go. ”
"Fourth, although the Jin army has advanced all the way, it is now in the midst of a major drought in the north, Huan Wen Cao Yun has been exhausted, and there is no shortage of grain and grass, which is the time when the Jin army is at a loss for water and food. The current fighter is conducive to our Dayan, not the Eastern Jin Dynasty. If we retreat without a fight at this time, and are in the middle of Huan's warm arms, he will be able to take the benefits of the city without spending troops and horses; If we hold on to the Jin army at this time, within two months, the Jin army will run out of food and will retreat. ”
"Your Majesty, please go to war and break the Jin army!"
Murong Chui was impassioned and went to the battlefield wholeheartedly, and even Murong Wei couldn't help but be infected by him.
From Murong Chui's words, Murong Wei faintly felt that King Wu must have a strategy to break the enemy, so he would be so confident.
Murong Trai's ability, he often heard the first emperor mention it when he was a child, "King Wu is gifted and heroic, and after a little overtime, he can use others without dying, and he can only use it in times of crisis." ”
And now, it is a time of crisis for the survival of the country!
"Uncle Huang is loyal, and he is very moved." Murong Wei wanted to help Murong Trai again, but this time Murong Trai insisted on kneeling and asking for his life.
Although Murong Wei also had the intention of fighting the main battle, there was still a faint worry in his heart.
Since he ascended the throne, the Queen Mother has always warned him, "King Wu has the heart of a tiger and a wolf, and he has a very high prestige, and he does not discharge his military power, and the emperor is worried." ”
