Text Volume 9: Yellow Sparrow in the After_ "Phantom Spear (9)" Chapter 55: The Holy Resolution
That night, Ma Bo was kidnapped by Zhao Pingguang and escorted out of the city, the road was unimpeded and mysterious, and no one knew where he would be sent. Yang Hu and Liu Gongzi asked him to bring the letter written by Ma Bo himself, and returned to the northern military camp to read it the next morning under his arrangement. Although the Northern Army was shocked by the whereabouts of General Ma and Deputy General Niu, but looking at the handwriting, it was from the hands of General Ma.
originally thought that everything would transition smoothly like this, but I didn't expect a veteran to stand up at this moment. That veteran was none other than Lao Wu, who had dealt with Lu Jianfei before. He had always had prestige in the army, but when he found it suspicious, he directly questioned: "Dare to ask Yang when he joined the army, where did General Ma and Adjutant General Niu go? Even if the initial battle was unfavorable, he would not be dismissed so hastily, right?"
"Hey, Old Wu, this is General Ma's handwriting, can't you see it?" Yang Hu's net worth was threatened at the moment, where did he dare to talk nonsense. And last night Liu Gongzi may have promised him glory and wealth, he thought that it was not as comfortable to follow Ma Bo to lead the northern army as it was to follow Liu Gongzi, so when he came to the barracks this morning, half of it was a threat, and half of it was willing.
"Haha, joke, what a joke. Yang Hu, how much benefit have you received from others to make you forget your roots so much?" asked Lao Wu.
Yang Huxin said: You, old Wu, are not obviously against General Ma's rebellion? Now you dare to speak wildly and pretend to be fake to whom!
At this moment, the imperial envoy sent by Liu Gongzi said with a smile: "Since you want an explanation, then I will give you a truth." As the saying goes, the state has national laws, the family has family rules, and the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people when he makes mistakes, not to mention the fact that yesterday's battle was unfavorable. The saint was extrajudicial and forgave General Ma for his capital crimes, and gave him a fief, so that he could enjoy the blessings of the rest of his life. As for Vice General Niu, insulting the saint should be sinned. At this moment, the guards around the emperor have been corrected on the spot, and the end is miserable. The emperor remembered that everyone is a loyal minister who has worked hard to help, and does not want to hold you responsible, but gives everyone a chance, as long as they repel the thieves and kill the thieves this time, everyone can return to the Central Plains, and there is no need to defend the extremely cold north. Such an emperor's grace is immense, you must know how to cherish it. ”
"Hmph, it's a bunch of nonsense, it's clearly your design, and you have harmed our General Ma and Deputy General Niu, don't be fooled. Lao Wu shouted loudly.
"If you really have the intention to harm you, then how can you persuade each other with good words, and even more reward? The envoy continued to speak in an orderly manner.
Lao Wu originally thought that all the brothers would unite as one, but at this moment, there was a lot of discussion behind the scenes, but none of them were willing to stand up and say a fair word, and he couldn't help but be disappointed. With a mournful voice, he said weakly: "You people, alas, you want me to say what is good for you. Today, they can kill General Ma and Adjutant Niu, and he will be able to deal with you in the same way in the future, why can't he figure this out. ”
"Lao Wu, those of us who joined the army lived a life of licking blood from the knife's edge, and no one could predict whether he would be alive tomorrow. Yesterday's battle was so tragic that you must remember it vividly. In that case, why bother with some things? Yang Hu reassured.
With a "poof", Lao Wu suddenly pulled out the saber on his waist and put it on his neck, he looked up to the sky and sighed: "I have been in the army for more than 40 years, and I have seen countless people who are cruel and vicious. This time, he killed himself, if nothing else, but to blame himself for failing to persuade General Ma to be loyal to the royal family, so that he was victimized by rebellious traitors. I'm also even more sorry for Lord Lu's high hopes for me at the beginning, now that the general trend has gone, and the brothers have made their own choices, then the old man should also return to heaven!"
This scene came too suddenly, surprising everyone present. Yang Hu glanced at the imperial envoy, only to see that he was calm and calm, and did not say a word, so he had to stand up and clean up the situation by himself.
The flowers bloom two and one branch each, and it is said that in the northern suburbs of the school, the emperor has prepared everything, just waiting for the arrival of General Zhennan and his party.
"These guys, don't you really take the Son of Heaven in your eyes?" Lu Jianfei said angrily.
"The generals are not subject to military orders abroad, and these people are used to being loose and free. Bao Guocai said.
"Lord Bao, but now that the Zhennan Talisman is in the hands of the emperor, are you still worried that they will not be able to rebel. Lu Jianfei said coldly.
"Lord Lu, I am afraid it is still unknown whose command this army is under in the end, otherwise the emperor would not have frowned, and Liu Shichen's traitor would not have let us go so far. ”
"Those who eat the king's fortune bear the king's worries, and the ungrateful will never get a good reward. If the emperor is willing to lead it, the official will go to his tent and cut off his head, which can be described as easy. Lu Jianfei's pride in the rivers and lakes surged up at this moment.
"Forget it, Lord Lu, there are some things that you and I know in our hearts. What's more, the army of Zhenxi General Luan Shixiao and Zhendong General Ning Tiexin's army still don't know where it is now, and now they have a falling out with Zhang Poyan, which will only be detrimental to the emperor. Bao Guocai could only persuade like this.
As soon as the words fell, a soldier came to report, saying that Zhang Poyan had set up a banquet in the Zhennan Army and respectfully invited the emperor to go to the banquet.
"Bold, it's just bold, how is this kind of behavior different from a thief? There is no need to report to the emperor again, the official will personally go to meet this Zhang Poyan for a while. ”
"Lord Lu, you have always been calm and calm, why are you so impulsive at this moment? How can such a major event not be reported to itself?" Bao Guocai said.
"What Lord Bao said is extremely true, that official will go to face the saint now. After speaking, Lu Jianfei walked towards the Chinese military tent with one arrow step.
Bao Guocai looked at Lu Jianfei's back as he disappeared like the wind, and shook his head slightly. Although there was a victory yesterday, the Imperial Forest Army in the northern suburbs was consumed too much, and the situation became more and more tense, suppressing everyone, and even a city government like Lu Jianfei couldn't hold his breath.
After Lu Jianfei finished reporting to the emperor, the emperor unexpectedly readily agreed. Lu Jianfei was taken aback and admonished: "Your Majesty, this time I went to the Zhennan military camp, I am afraid that it will be a Hongmen banquet." ”
"Jian Fei, do you think I don't know? But even if it's a Hongmen banquet, I have to learn from Han Gaozu, he is not even afraid of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, is I still afraid of a small Zhennan general Zhang Poyan?"
"Your Majesty, this time is different from the past, Zhang Poyan has the initiative in the army, and we don't have Xiang Bo's assistance here, so don't be careless. You are the true son of the dragon, and your life is related to the safety of the country's society. ”
"That's why I'm going to take you with me. The emperor interrupted Lu Jianfei's words behind his hands.
Lu Jianfei didn't know how to pick up the stubble, if he said that he was not sure, he could throw into the face of the position of the commander of the imperial guard; if he was sure, but in the face of the siege of thousands of troops and horses, was he really sure that he could take the emperor out of the camp safely?
Seeing that Lu Jianfei didn't speak, the emperor said with a smile: "The more times like this, the more you can't panic yourself." I don't take a soldier with me, I only take you alone. ”
"How can you be so big?"
"Jian Fei has followed me for many years, how can I not guess my thoughts? Although I have the Zhennan Talisman in my hand, I know what the army wants. I know that this visit will be in danger, but I also want the soldiers in the south to see that the current emperor, whom they have never seen, is not a coward, but a majestic and majestic ruler of the world. "The emperor is full of domineering when he says this.
When Lu Jianfei heard that the emperor had such an arrangement, he was silent for an instant, not knowing what to say.
"Jian Fei, everything is accompanied by risks. Liu Shichen dared to defy the condemnation of the world and rebelled against him, why didn't I dare to go to this small military camp in Zhennan? Could it be that in your heart, I am not as good as his traitor Liu Shichen?"
"Weichen doesn't dare!" Lu Jianfei hurriedly knelt down.
"So decide, you go and prepare, I will leave with you immediately. ”
"Okay, since the emperor ordered it like this, how dare Weichen not agree. Even if Wechen is broken, he will definitely escort you back to camp safely. ”
"Okay, good, Jian Fei is really my right-hand man!" the emperor smiled and stroked the dragon's beard, and the thoughts in his heart had drifted to the southern military camp......
