Yueshou sighed and said: "I will truthfully inform the Imperial Preceptor of the situation here. Please don't worry, Your Majesty. This is not your fault. I will definitely give you a lot of good words."
Having said this, he saluted Murong Zhen, turned around and left. The knights in blue armor, who were less than two thousand, followed closely behind him and ran towards the city. For a moment, smoke and dust were everywhere, and soon, a mixture of green and blue
, the large group of cavalry outside the city, like an ocean, gradually became only a kind of blue.
Murong Zhen turned to look at Murong Ping and said: "Yue Shou is gone. Now we can talk directly. We retreat to the inner city to defend, and we must still be ready to attack at any time."
Murong Ping asked in surprise: "Do you want to abandon the entire outer city and just return to the inner city?"
Murong Zhen sighed: "After the fight was like this, the black robe didn't send any soldiers to rescue us. Obviously, we are just his pawns to lure the enemy. I'm afraid he is no longer commanding on the city wall now, but personally
Attacked."
Murong Ping murmured to himself: "Attack in person? Where can he attack? Is he really going to attack Liu Yu? This is too crazy."
Murong Zhen said in a deep voice: "Liu Yu sent a lot of soldiers and horses to rescue Tan Shao in the West City. Not only in the North City, all the chariot troops specially dispatched to deal with the cavalry, but even in the direction of the Nancheng, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were dispatched to rescue.
, and I am afraid that Nancheng has not been broken now, but there is a big gap here in Xicheng. Maybe Liu Yu himself will move the command camp. Coming here, you and I both know that this kind of temporary mobile command camp is the most fragile.
The black robes have been holding back, they must be trying to launch the most critical blow, I'm afraid, they are already taking action now!"
Murong Ping's eyes flashed with joy: "Then why don't we go help Hei Pao and defeat Liu Yu in one fell swoop? This way we can clear away the charge of our incompetent actions this time."
Murong Zhen sneered: "Ping'er, you have to know that what you can't get on the battlefield can't be obtained even if you beg in front of the black robe. He is eager to find excuses to get rid of us, at least to remove our military power.
, if he personally attacks Liu Yu in this battle, he will be a hero if he wins. Regardless of whether we help him or not, and whether he wins or loses, we will not have a good result. Because, even if he loses, he can
Take the opportunity to break out of the encirclement. Anyway, he has no relatives and is alone. There is also the monster Mingyue Flying Gu. He can leave at any time, can we?"
Murong Ping asked doubtfully: "Uncle, what do you mean, what should we do now?"
Murong Zhen turned around and looked around. The nearest guard had retreated thirty steps away. People outside were shouting and neighing, and the sound of iron hooves rolling made it impossible for people in the distance to hear the conversation between the two.
, he lowered his voice and said: "I sent Yueshou back first to explore the way, to see if Heipao is there. If Heipao is not there, then we have to do it ourselves. Our target is no longer the Jin army, but
Emperor, do you understand?"
Murong Ping took a breath of air: "Are you trying to force the palace to rebel? Uncle, how could this be possible?!"
Murong Zhen gritted his teeth: "The emperor must be controlled by the black robe. If we really want to say that it is not us who are rebellious, it is this traitor. Think about it, in this time of national crisis, how long have we not seen the emperor? All of them
All the orders come from the mouth of Heipao, and we generals don’t even know whether the emperor is dead or alive.”
Murong Ping sighed: "But even so, as soldiers at this time, we do not kill the enemy to serve the country, but instead kidnap the emperor. This cannot be justified in any case. Uncle, you have always had a reputation for loyalty in Dayan, but this step is
Think twice."
Murong Zhen sneered: "In this troubled world, what use is loyalty and righteousness?! I was Murong Hong's subordinate at first. If I were loyal and righteous, I would have been hacked to death with him long ago. Ah Ping, remember, in this world,
We have to try our best to survive. If the Great Yan Dynasty is peaceful, we naturally don't need to do this. But now that we have failed to take the initiative to attack, no matter how the war goes in the future, we will almost certainly die. Even if the Jin army wins
We may still have a glimmer of hope, but if Black Robe wins, we will definitely die. Do you think Black Robe will be loyal to us?"
Murong Ping gritted his teeth: "But that's the problem. If the emperor is kidnapped, will the Jin army give up the siege? If the black robe defeats Liu Yu, how can we survive even if we have the emperor in our hands? This is given to us.
He has no reason to kill us."
Murong Zhen shook his head confidently: "Don't forget, Heipao is not the emperor. He just uses the emperor to command the princes. All his orders are carried out in the name of the emperor. If the emperor is in our hands,
Then we can issue an edict to relieve him of his military power. At that time, we can do to him what he did to us. Of course, this is based on his defeating the Jin army and relieving the crisis.
.I believe that in his hands the emperor will live a life worse than death, and may even be dead."
Murong Ping opened his eyes wide: "He dares to kill the king?"
Murong Zhen sneered: "What can't the black robe do? Isn't it like this in Xiyan back then? No one knew about the death of the interim emperor for ten days and a half. The soldiers and civilians below only followed the orders of their superiors until they left.
The news of his death will not be announced until he has traveled hundreds of thousands of miles to a new location. This time the fighting was so fierce that Murong Chao didn't even show his face. I think he is probably dead. But it doesn't matter. Murong Chao is dead.
Even better, as long as the Empress Dowager Gongsun is still there, she can still announce that a certain clan will take over the throne. At that time..."
A trace of excitement flashed across Murong Ping's face: "The clan has ascended the throne? Is there anyone more suitable than you, uncle? Murong Chao has no heirs. In terms of prestige and merit, who among the clan in this city can compare to exposing the black robe conspiracy?"
, where are you, my uncle who has been the pillar of the country for many years?!"
Murong Zhen nodded with satisfaction: "However, we have to expose the black robe's conspiracy first. Moreover, to take this step, we must try our best to win the support of Princess Lan. Among the people in the country and the army, the one with the highest prestige is Princess Lan.
It’s not me, it’s Murong Lan!”
Murong Ping said in surprise: "She is a disciple in black robe. Will she help us?"
Murong Zhen smiled and said: "Although she is Heipao's disciple, she has long been dissatisfied with Heipao's actions. Last time Heipao and Gongsun Wulou wanted to rob the Eastern Jin Dynasty, she opposed it more fiercely than me.
As the eldest princess, she is also in prison, so she is someone we can fight for."
"If she is willing to stand with us and Dayan, then we may even have a chance to make peace with Liu Yu. These Eastern Jin enemies on the battlefield may become our allies."
