Chapter 195: Two Paths

The three-day deadline was approaching, and the people of Sanshan Walled City sat in a room with the Taishou and County Guards of Jiezhou, and everyone looked solemn and did not dare to breathe.

In the past, officials in Jiezhou would not be so afraid of the Mu family leaving, but now it is different. They are already ants on a hot pan and risk being fried if they are not careful.

Taishou Gao Ning frowned and was silent for a long time. The others looked at him, waiting for him to speak.

"The imperial court is sending someone to negotiate." Gao Ning's words relieved everyone's hearts.

Being able to negotiate is a good sign, but what I'm afraid of is that there is no room for maneuver, and I must click some people.

Gao Ning continued: "After tonight, the three-day deadline is up, have you thought of a countermeasure? ”

Lu Zhichang, the county guard of Sitongcheng County, said: "No." ”

Cheng Yun, the official of the first rank, said: "The people of the imperial court are too slow, the three-day deadline has passed, and the Mu family has left, in case our negotiations with the imperial court fail, what should we do then?" ”

Wen Mao stood aside, he didn't have the right to speak, he could only open his mouth if others asked him to speak.

Gao Ning glanced at everyone and said, "What about the county guards of the three cities of Nanpi, Yangshan, and Xinye?" ”

Cheng Yun smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid that the people's hearts are scattered, they are afraid, the team is not easy to lead!" ”

Lu Zhichang hurriedly said: "I saw them yesterday. ”

Danxi County Shouganmeng said: "They didn't abscond in fear of crime. ”

Gao Ning turned his head and said to Cheng Yun: "I remember that you sent someone to guard it?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shocked, and no one present knew about it. Gao Ning asked Cheng Yun to guard the county guards of the three cities of Nanpi, Yangshan, and Xinye, they are also county guards, and I am afraid that spies have also been planted near their homes.

When Gao Ning said this, he had the meaning of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger. As Cheng Yun said, if you are afraid, people's hearts will be scattered.

"I've sent people, and there's no news at the moment." Cheng Yun said calmly.

He then turned his face to face everyone, with a smile on his face, "Everyone is a grasshopper on a rope, and we want to be finished together, and we want to be prosperous and rich together." You say...... Isn't it? ”

The crowd shuddered.

Gan Meng said: "This is true, we can escape the first day of junior high school, and we can't escape the fifteenth, but the problem is that we have no countermeasures, and the attitude of the imperial court is unclear." Whether you like it or not, let me tell you my opinion, the court is likely to kill people. ”

Lu Zhichang sighed: "Maybe it's not one or two, but many, many, maybe they'll kill us all." ”

Cheng Yun slapped his thigh and laughed loudly, "All strokes, the emperor doesn't have such courage!" ”

Gao Ning said: "You have also seen the extent to which the news has spread these days, the imperial court is bound to kill people, otherwise there is no way to explain." If we use the knife, I'm afraid we will all die. ”

The atmosphere in the room gradually became dull, and it returned to the atmosphere when everyone first gathered.

Gao Ning leaned on his chair, he really couldn't think of a way. No matter what is behind this, who wants to harm him, now, he can't get out.

Corruption is a fact, tens of millions of taels of spars have disappeared over the years, even if they are relatives of the emperor, they have to fall to the ground!

The news spread vigorously, and no matter how the emperor dealt with it, there was almost no possibility of letting them go.

If you don't kill the national thief, you can't give an explanation to the people of the world, and you can't give an explanation to the ancestors and ancestors of the Zhao family!

Cheng Yun wanted to say a few words of inspiration, but instead of being encouraged, people's hearts became more and more depressed.

Wen Mao looked at the scene in front of him and knew that it was going to be over. The umbrella has fallen, and the Sanshan Walled City has to be finished.

He stepped forward and said, "My lords, there are only two ways for us to survive now. ”

Gao Ning glanced at it and motioned for Wen Mao to continue.

Wen Mao said: "The Mu family has a big business, but the profit of the armor transaction is large, it is not that they will give up if they give up, they will definitely be in pain if they want to leave." As long as we meet the conditions put forward by the lord and find out the traitor, we may be able to get the protection of the Mu family. ”

Gao Ning said in a dark voice: "Do you know what this means? ”

"Yes." Wen Mao said helplessly.

sought refuge from the Mu family, but the Mu family and the court had torn their faces. These officials have already committed serious crimes, and standing on the side of the Mu family this time is tantamount to openly opposing the court, betraying the court, and taking refuge in the Mu family.

Gao Ning pondered for a moment, looked up at the roof, and said abruptly: "Even if we want to do this, it's useless!" The mole could not be found. ”

The people who knew the accounts were all core members, and after the East Window incident, everyone couldn't get out. Who wouldn't be able to think about it, unless someone with a problem with his head would spread the accounts.

Gao Ning once thought of some possibility, maybe the Mu family got the current accounts, and then spread the accounts.

The reason why the Mu family is suspicious is because the Mu family can profit from it.

Some time ago, the Mu family united with the imperial court, but was betrayed by the imperial court and lost a lot of manpower.

The corruption case came out, and the imperial court was in a dilemma, and now it has developed to the point where the officials of Jiezhou have nowhere to borrow, and may have to take refuge in the Mu family.

Once Gao Ning led the city and county guards and the main generals to join the Mu family, Jiezhou was out of the control of the imperial court. The ownership of the three northwestern states was undecided, and Jiezhou was split first. Can the imperial court stand it?

But there is one thing that Gao Ning can't figure out, the Mu family has no reason to get corrupt accounts.

It is true that the Mu family operates an underground armor trade, but they know the most about the contacts of the officials in Jiezhou. The information that is being disseminated today is too sophisticated, accurate and outrageous, and the occasional evidence is even more frightening, and it is impossible for a core member to know this.

Gao Ning can't figure it out!

Take 10,000 steps back, if the news is really spread by the Mu family, and things have developed to this point, what is the way to break the situation?

Whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, Gao Ning can't break the situation, and he has no choice but to ......

Wen Mao saw that Gao Taishou was deep in thought, so he stopped, and waited for Gao Ning to come back to his senses before continuing: "Either we will rebel directly!" ”

When these words came out, the people were not surprised. Also, they have thought of various ways out, and rebellion is indeed one of them.

From the first day of the East Window incident, everyone present thought about this issue, but no one raised it, Wen Mao was the one who raised it, and that's it.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one continued to extend downward.

Cheng Yun sighed lightly and said: "Rebellion is not something that is said casually, either you don't do it or you don't do it. ”

A hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, if he was determined to rebel, whoever dared to withdraw when he made a statement would be killed immediately.

Gao Taishou waved his hand, "Don't mention the rebellion again, I won't rebel." ”

There is no chance of winning a rebellion, and it is impossible for a state to win.

Lu Zhichang sighed: "In this way, we still have no choice. ”

Gao Ning said: "Although the matter is urgent, but it is not in a hurry to the point of a dead man, everyone first stabilize, listen to what the people of the Mu family say tomorrow, and then make a decision." ”

He paused, and then said to Cheng Yun: "Those few county guards who didn't come, arrest them first, don't kill them." ”
