Hua Lanting said: "Brother, don't worry, let's pick the most important thing to sort out the matter first, analyze it, I'll talk about it first." ”

Yue Jia nodded with satisfaction: "Jingjing, you have grown up." That's right, brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are broken, and I just lost a little bit of an inch. ”

"My father often said that we should have calm in every major event, and those who are in the army are in battle, stretching out their heads is a knife, shrinking their heads is also a knife, and they must have the courage to face whatever happens. You say. ”

Hua Lanting thought for a while, and asked first: "You know about the matter of fighting the Hou Party, right?" ”

Yue Jia replied: "Yes, I know and agree." ”

"Because you didn't join the army and politics, and I have been following my father to the border, I didn't let you participate. ”

"At that time, the arrangement was to let the Dark Moon Guard send you out of the city, escort you to the Daqi Xiongnu King City to take out a treasure that your father found in his early years, one is to stay away from right and wrong, the second is to train you, and the third is also just in case, with you and the treasure here, even if the political battle is completely defeated, the Yue family can still continue to develop. ”

"Who knew that there was a spy in the Dark Moon Guard, according to the investigation afterwards, it should be the nail planted by the King of Xitai, so that you were hunted down, and later I knew that you were in great trouble, but many continued to search, but there was no trace of you. ”

Hua Lanting nodded: "I'm fine, and there are adventures that make martial arts great, I found the treasure, and then I went to Wenbin, don't ask the specific big brother, there are surprises, I will tell you slowly." ”

Yue Jia smiled: "Okay, brother doesn't ask." You kid has been a stubborn donkey since he was a child, he doesn't go, he doesn't move, he doesn't want to say what he doesn't want to say, he won't talk about you if he kills you, and you won't say anything if he doesn't kill you. ”

"I see that your kung fu has made great progress, and even my big tent will be entered, but when you are free, you have to come to my brother one by one. ”

Hua Lanting successfully fooled his advance, and then asked, "Big brother, why did you come to the capital?"

"The king of Beiyan received a secret report from the Jing Dynasty on the route of troop mobilization, and it coincided with the sudden rainfall and snow in the south. After the war, the southern border was safe for several years. ”

"With this great merit, I was worried about the situation on my father's side, so I dared to decide to leave the camp in violation of the law. ”

"I know that my father secretly transferred troops to the north, and he was about to start cleaning the Hou Party, and he rode lightly all the way to Jane from the speed, and this army arrived a day late due to the weather, I just caught up with them, and after taking over, I knew the change of Zhongping, and you came as soon as you set up camp. ”

"Fortunately, God bless me with dust, if these 5,000 elite soldiers are in place on time and are used, the situation will be even more unbearable. ”

Hua Lanting asked, "Can the eldest brother completely control these five thousand people?"

Yue Jia said: "These 5,000 people are all personal guards who have followed my father for many years, and they are also familiar with me, so I can ask myself." ”

"The chief general and the deputy who arrived in advance have not returned after entering the city, and the order left before the departure is to gather the rear team and assemble for standby. ”

Hua Lanting's face was worried: "It is an indisputable fact that there was a rebellion in Zhongping, and now the most popular thing is that my father took the opportunity of arresting the Hou Party to launch a mutiny, and now the saint is trapped in the palace. ”

"The priority is to find out what is going on, whether someone else is rioting in the name of my father, or is it ...... and the current situation in Zhongping, especially the safety of the saints. ”

Yue Jia also had a solemn expression: "I originally planned to send someone to sneak in at night to find out the news, and the camp of the army must be known to the city, and someone will definitely come to contact." ”

Hua Lanting's eyes flashed, and he said to Yue Jia: "Big brother, if there is someone else who is the mastermind of the rebellion, then the saint and his father are in danger. You have soldiers under you, I have a sword in my hand, you and my brother join forces to break the city and kill the enemy, save the father and save the father, it may not be impossible to do anything, the big deal is not successful, and it will become benevolent. ”

"But if the rumors are true, you, how are we going to deal with ourselves, how are we going to behave?

When Yue Jia heard this, he closed his eyes and was silent, showing that his heart was extremely painful and struggling.

After a long time, he said with difficulty: "I don't know, I really don't want to face this possibility, but we have to think about it in advance." ”

"Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, if this is the case, if this is the case......"

Hua Lanting said: "Anyway, I will enter the city first tonight, focusing on investigating the situation of Emperor Qingyun and the safety of my father, as well as the rebels and the mastermind. ”

"If there is another person, I will kill him, save the Holy God and my father, and then we will join forces to put down the rebellion. ”

"If not, I also want to ask what the reason and trouble are......"

Yue Jia interrupted Hua Lanting's words: "It's really the worst situation, you must ask if you ask." ”

"But whatever the cause and affliction, it should not be a reason to rebel and rebel. The world is in chaos, and the unlucky people are still the common people, how will future generations view our Yue family?"

Hua Lanting said tentatively: "The court is tilted, the dynasty changes, and it has been the same since ancient times. In the long run, it is difficult to say who is in charge of the situation and who is better for the people. ”

Yue Jia glared at Hua Lanting fiercely, and said sharply: "What you are talking about is the chaos and chaos of the government at the end of the dynasty, the people are not able to make a living, and the natural replacement after living in dire straits. ”

"Now that I have been in the court for several generations, the saint has worked hard to govern the country, and the surrounding areas have not been subdued, it is the time for my generation to make meritorious contributions and calm the world, how can we generalize!

"My father's teaching to us has always been to respect our ancestors, to be loyal to the king, to serve the country and the people, and to extend the name of loyalty and righteousness to the whole of my family. ”

"If you have such thoughts, don't blame me for not recognizing your brother!"

Hua Lanting sneered: "Big brother is angry, I just want to hear your true inner thoughts." In today's situation, if it drags on for a long time, it will be chaotic, where to go, big brother, your decision is crucial, and you must make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. My brother is the only one who looks to me. ”

Yue Jia's complexion softened, and he pondered for a long time, his eyes gradually became clear and firm, and he let out a long breath of turbidity, and said to Hua Lanting: "If you continue to interrupt, you will suffer from it." I've already figured it out. ”

"Hopefully things aren't what we thought they we'd like. ”

"If the worst happens, I will persuade my father to turn back and try to prevent the situation from getting worse. ”

"If my father insists on not complying, he will not hesitate to break up and use force, and he will also put an end to the chaos. ”

"At that point, I can only hope that I can save my father's life with the two immortal achievements of Pingnan's victory and rebellion rescue, even if the Yue family is incognito and disarmed and returned to the field from now on. ”

"I know it's idealistic, even naïve, it's hard to implement, and there's a lot of variables, but it's the only option I can think of. ”

"Justice, reasonableness and morality in the world, together with the laws of the monarch and the minister, the fate of the family, and the affection of father and son, are intertwined, and this situation is really incomprehensible. ”

"After doing the specifics, you and my brother can adapt to the situation, but ask for peace of mind, and the rest can only be left to fate. ”

Speaking of this, Yue Jia turned his head to look at Hua Lanting: "Little brother, you have always been simple and kind, but also cynical and aloof, since you said that you are successful in martial arts, promise me that if you can't do anything, you will leave and keep a bloodline for my Yue family." ”

Hua Lanting rolled his eyes: "Come less, I don't." Don't you still have a young son? It's really desperate, I will protect my nephew, and you and your father will get out together. ”

Yue Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Okay, whatever you want, let's take one step at a time." I wanted to persuade you to leave now, but it seems that you won't listen, so you and my brother will advance and retreat together. ”

"You don't have to go into the city first, I guess there will be people in the city soon, and everything will be clear by then. ”

"In addition, I am worried that the surrounding Heng Dynasty, Wen Hui and Daqi will take advantage of the chaos to attack, how the situation in Zhongping will evolve, I am afraid that they will have to face an unprecedented crisis in the future. ”

Hua Lanting hesitated, but still told Yue Jia concisely about the situation of the Daqi Four Clans and Wen Dongying.

Yue Jia raised his head and laughed when he heard this, and said: "Okay, good, go out of the door, junior brother, you are worthy of being the unicorn of my Yue family, and the foolish brother is not as good as you." ”

"In this case, I must do my best for my brother, no matter what, I must also seek the best result for my father-in-law's family. ”

At this time, the soldiers outside the tent knocked on the door: "Little Marquis, General Fang has come back from the city, and he knows that you are here, so he asks to see him outside the door." ”

"Let him sign up. ”

The curtain was lifted, and a man walked in.

"The last general, Fang Huai, see Lord Dutong. ”

Hua Lanting had already hidden in the dark corner of the tent at this time.

Yue Jia held the table with his hand, stared at the visitor tightly and shouted: "Fang Huai, you are so bold, such a big event, it is not my temporary intention to come in person, when do you want to hide it from me?"

Fang Huai got up after giving the salute, he and Yue Jia were also very familiar, and said with a wry smile: "The last general doesn't dare, everything is the order of the Hou Ye." ”

Yue Jia's whole body trembled slightly, took a deep breath, and asked, "So, the rumors are true?

Fang Huai is the confidant of the Marquis of Qingyuan, and he is one of the very few people who knows the inside story of the mutiny, and he also knows that Yue Jia does not know, but he is cautious and shrewd and tactful, and he is surprised that Yue Jia came unexpectedly, and now there are extraneous branches, he does not dare to speculate about the matter of the father and son, it seems that he will not be able to take the troops away immediately, so he gritted his teeth and replied ambiguously:

"The little marquis forgives the sin, the last general has not received a military order, so he doesn't dare to talk nonsense. Hou Ye knows that you will be happy when you come, and when the last general will return immediately, everything will wait for Hou Ye's orders, or you and the last general will enter the city together, and naturally everything will be clear. ”

Although Fang Huai didn't say it explicitly, how could Yue Jia not understand at this time. His heart was bitter, and a mouthful of blood was about to gush up his throat, but he forcibly pressed it down, and pretended to be nothing, and said:

"Good, good. Old Fang, I don't embarrass you, you go back immediately to show your father, and say that in half an hour, I will meet with his old man on the tower of Yongding Gate in the south of the city and explain the matter. ”

After Fang Huai left, Yue Jia and Hua Lanting looked at each other speechlessly, and they both saw deep helplessness, heaviness, pain, and confusion in each other's eyes.

Of course, Hua Lanting recovered faster than Yue Jia, he gave Yue Jia a true qi, and after helping him stabilize his qi and blood fluctuations, he said softly: "I'll go with you, the father and son will talk about the matter and find a way to solve it together." ”

"I'm afraid that if we can't reach a consensus, Daddy won't do anything to us, but the old man is likely to detain you, but what can we do to him?"

Yue Jia coughed lightly twice, and said expressionlessly: "Seeing is always the time to see, otherwise whether it is obedience or confrontation, you and I will not be at ease." Alas, in fact, I am afraid that no matter what happens, there will be no more peaceful days in the future...... But we always have to ask why, don't we?"

"In fact, knowing a son is better than a father, and knowing a father is better than a son. Although I don't understand why my father chose this path of no return, he never told me, and I can more or less guess what he thinks. ”

"As for the countermeasures, let's talk about them first. If it doesn't work, or his old man catches the two of us, we will accept our fate. Otherwise, we will restrain my father, and then raise troops to quell the rebellion and rescue the driver, and strive to make up for the mistakes. This is the best policy. ”

"Judging from Fang Huai's move out of the city, the Holy Lord should not have fallen into the hands of the rebels, and the matter has not yet developed to a situation where there is no return. ”

"Or, let's get out of it ourselves, and we all do our own thing. Either my father will capture the palace before we break the city, or we will defeat the rebels and save the saint. This is the middle point. ”

"So I chose to stay at the city gate, if I entered the city, it would be even more difficult to get out. Time is precious now, and my father should not be entangled in the place. ”

Hua Lanting said: "In fact, it is very risky to meet, and the first half of your two strategies still rely on personal force to a large extent. In that case, why don't I sneak into the city and capture my father alive, and the problem will be solved. ”

Yue Jia said: "There are a lot of masters and dead soldiers around my father, and they are also equipped with various hidden weapons and advanced firearms, you don't know the power of firearms, I don't want you to have any mistakes." Only by turning the tiger away from the mountain, the three of us have a secret conversation, and others don't know that you have made great progress in martial arts, so that you can have a chance. ”

Hua Lanting was silent, and was ready to capture Yue Ye alive and shock the rebels.

He then asked, "With the best policy and the middle policy, what is the next policy?"

Yue Jia shook his head: "In this situation, where is there any strategy, can we kill our father, or will my father kill us?" ”

Hua Lanting was silent.

Yue Jia said: "You rest and prepare first, I need to immediately purge the troops, check and isolate the cronies and dissidents of my father who may know about it, dispel their doubts, boost morale, calm the morale of the army, and ensure that these people are forbidden and can be ready to fight at any time when we return." ”

Before the night was completely dark, the guards of the Marquis of Qingyuan checked the official signing room of the commander of the Yongding Gate City Tower under the jurisdiction of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division several times, inside and out.

Just as they withdrew to the periphery, a black shadow avoided everyone's ears and eyes, and curled up into the dark shadow at the corner of the eaves outside the room, silent.
