Chapter 216: Old Lord Mo Didn't Die in Battle

Rong Xian looked at her with a smile and said the most vicious words, and the little persistence in his heart fell apart.

Yun Jinchu's words can be said to have hit the deepest secret in her heart.

She already had a grudge against Emperor Jing, and she also hated what Feng Liang had done to her in prison before, and she knew that it was difficult to live, so why did she keep a secret for him? She knew that she would definitely die if she said it today, but Emperor Jing couldn't escape, how could he spare the person who killed the old prince Mo back then with Mo Xuanchen's means?

Rong Xian let go of his hand, and his palms were full of bloodstains that had been pinched out: "If I say it, will you keep it secret and protect An Jin?" ”

Mo Xuanchen said indifferently: "I don't care about the national fortunes of the Murong royal family, it has nothing to do with me whether the royal ancestors or your son are buried in the imperial mausoleum, you tell me the truth about what happened back then, I can promise not to fall into the well towards the Xie family, and whether they are dead or alive depends on her own life." ”

"I want you to keep An Jin and Yan'er......"

"Huh."

Mo Xuanchen seemed to have heard something funny, raised his lips and sneered, and directly reached out and pulled Yun Jinchu to get up and leave.

"Mo Xuanchen!"

Rong Xian hurriedly called him: "You don't want to know how your grandfather died?!" ”

"The left is just Emperor Jing's hand." Mo Xuanchen looked back with an indifferent expression, "If you don't say it, naturally there are others who will say that I will let people send you back to the prison and strive to let the Xie family be buried with you." ”

He did not compromise at all, nor was he coerced by Rongxian at all.

Just like Yun Jinchu said just now, there are some things he already knows, it doesn't matter if she wants to say it or not.

Rong Xian climbed on the side of the bed and met him with a cold look in his eyes, and his face fell a little down.

She said it anyway.

When Mo Xuanchen and Yun Jinchu sat down opposite her again, Rong Xian looked at Mo Xuanchen and said, "You are really different from your grandfather and father. ”

The ancestors of the Mo family have been military generals for generations, and they are bright and upright, and they are never willing to use some ghostly methods, and the old prince Mo is even more disgusted with those intrigues and shady battles, but Mo Xuanchen is secretive, and his single-handed calculation is more shrewd than those old foxes in the court.

The Xie family planted it.

She planted it too.

Now it seems that even Emperor Jing will be planted in his hands sooner or later.

Rong Xian saw that Mo Xuanchen just looked at her with a cold face, and didn't pick her up at all, she took a deep breath and said, "You guessed right, your grandfather did not die in battle. ”

"In that war, Daye had the advantage, your grandfather captured the main general of Nanchu and led people to encircle and suppress the army of Nanchu, and fought directly all the way to the territory of Nanchu, Daye and Nanchu have been entangled for many years, and the border soldiers have been killed and injured countless times, your grandfather wants to completely subdue Nanchu and take advantage of the victory to pursue and take the three cities on the border of Nanchu."

"When the war report was transmitted back to the DPRK, the court celebrated, but who expected that the Northern Dragon Yuan Kingdom and the Northern Di Rong would suddenly go south, and the two countries would join forces to attack Yanshan Pass."

Mo Xuanchen frowned, Long Yuanguo and Beidi naturally refused to watch Daye capture the dominance of the Nanchu family, and it was reasonable for them to make a move, he said in a deep voice: "Emperor Jing wants to recall my grandfather? ”

Unexpectedly, Rong Xian shook his head: "No." ”

Mo Xuanchen was stunned.

Rong Xian chuckled: "You underestimate our majesty too much, he is not a mediocre person, how can he not know the benefits after defeating Nanchu?" ”

"At that time, Daye lived in the Three Kingdoms, besieged by Southern Chu, Beidi and Longyuanguo, the internal fighting consumed the national strength during the previous change of throne, and if you want to recover, how can it be done in just a few years, Nanchu is eyeing the tiger, Longyuanguo and Beidi are not dead, the three have already colluded secretly, if you can't break the situation, Daye will only decay day by day."

"If the old prince Mo can't defeat Southern Chu, it's fine, but the battle situation at that time was very good, whether it was to capture Southern Chu or just occupy the border city to force the Southern Chu royal family to retreat, it was a great thing for Daye at that time, how could he order the old prince Mo to withdraw."

At that time, the war in the north was together, and the DPRK and China were indeed in a panic, and some people even slandered that the war in the south was going on and it was difficult for the DPRK and China to support, and they wanted to let the old prince Mo withdraw his troops and go north to support.

But Emperor Jing was unwilling, and he even issued a secret decree to let the old prince Mo continue to attack Southern Chu.

"Your Majesty wants your grandfather to destroy Southern Chu, even if the war in the north is unfavorable, he will not let your grandfather withdraw from the army, and your grandfather lived up to His Majesty's trust at that time, and successively won victories and invaded the hinterland of Southern Chu."

"Then why did you ...... then?"

Mo Xuanchen looked stunned.

Rong Xian smiled bitterly: "Your Majesty overestimated his control over the court. ”

"At that time, he had not long been on the throne, there were many factions in the court, and the courtiers of the lord and the lord were far more than the main station faction, and the first emperor was arrogant and lascivious during his reign, and he had already hollowed out the foundation of Daye, and His Majesty wanted to use the power of the country to support the war, and some people were naturally unwilling."

During the reign of the first emperor, there were too many moths, and the army, the court, and even those families were accustomed to living a rich and comfortable life, and it was their interests that were destroyed by the war.

Emperor Jing originally thought that he himself could deter these people, and he also felt that as long as he supported the Southern Chu War, he could break the deadlock between the DPRK and China, but later he realized that he thought too highly of himself.

When the court was in turmoil, the courtiers and eunuchs all defected, and even those families pounced on the hungry wolves who were robbed of their interests, and Emperor Jing, who had just ascended the throne, was difficult to deal with, and Emperor Jing was also a little tired when he seized the throne, he was caught in his shortcomings, and he couldn't cope with the situation in the court.

The throne was unstable, the court was in chaos, and Emperor Jing had to make a choice to protect himself.

Mo Xuanchen's voice was low: "So, he gave up my grandfather?" ”

Rong Xian licked his lips that were a little dry and cracked: "He originally just wanted your grandfather to withdraw the army, but at that time, the war was a big victory, and his secret order was just sent to the south not long after the soldiers were also imposing. ”

"He didn't want to damage his prestige, and he couldn't confront those people in the court, so he could only pretend not to know that those courtiers of the family were doing things on the military grass in the south."

"He secretly instructed Qin Fengyang to find a way to control the war, and to exchange a small loss for Old Prince Mo to take the initiative to withdraw from the army, but who knew that when Qin Fengyang and He Yaoguang started, Nan Chu didn't know why he learned the news, so he set up a pit and killed more than 20,000 people in the vanguard army under Old Lord Mo."

Those people were almost all the elite of the Mo family, and they were also the strongest arrows in the entire Southern Army, and they were even more invincible on the battlefield, but they died in a small battle that should not have been lost.

Old Prince Mo sensed that he was wrong and sent someone to investigate, and soon found Qin Fengyang.

Emperor Jing didn't think about moving the old prince Mo at first, and he also knew the importance of the Mo family to Daye, but he was in a really difficult situation at that time, and the throne was already shaky, and at this time, it was absolutely impossible to spread the news that he sent someone to kill the southern generals.

And he also knows the temperament of Old Prince Mo, once what he sent someone to do is found out, and even involves "collusion" with Nanchu, Old Prince Mo and those people in the south will definitely not tolerate him.

He was afraid that the Mo family would rebel.

So in the end, it can only be the old prince Mo who dies.
