Chapter 970: Sitting and Reaping Profits (2)

"Emperor... this must be a misunderstanding! A child will never be so rude!" Old Muyang Hou said anxiously. He knew Mu Yang's character and would never act so impulsively. Moreover, he was still in the Chu army camp. Even if Mu Yang was afraid of the rat, he would never rashly kill the person sent by the emperor to pass the order.

The eunuch kneeling beside him moved in his heart and said sharply: "Mr. Mu, what do you mean is our family deceiving the emperor? Is it possible to frame the Marquis of Muyang?! The emperor, I am wronged, so I ask the emperor to send my confidants to investigate again, so as not to suffer this unjust injustice. The Marquis of Muyang killed the guards sent by the Emperor, which were seen by thousands of soldiers in the army with their own eyes. I don't believe that Marquis of Muyang can block so many people's mouths. Moreover, although the general from the West arrived later, the Prince of Zhennan was present from beginning to end. Please observe clearly!"

Seeing the eunuch's expression of grief and anger, Mo Jingli believed it even more. Moreover, he already suspected Muyang Marquis' Mansion, and the people below were just a little fueling.

With a sneer, Mo Jingli said, "Of course I will investigate! Gao Ming! Take my imperial edict and tell the Western General Zhao Lian to take Mu Yang to see me. If you disobey, execute me on the spot!" A general below took off and bowed, "The General of the Third General obeys the order. The General of the State Council will definitely bring Mu Yang back to apologize to the Emperor!" Mo Jingli snorted lightly. He was not interested in whether Mu Yang would ask for apologies. He was only worried that Mu Yang would bring his tens of thousands of troops to take breakfast with him. After all, the Mu family is still quite influential in the Great Chu army. After thinking about it, Mo Jingli said, "I will give you another 50,000 elite troops to help the General of the Western General defend Lu Jinxian's army!"

"Yes, thank you, the emperor." Gao Ming thanked him loudly. Of course he understood what Mo Jingli meant. These 50,000 elite soldiers were not really defending him against Lu Jinxian, but if Mu Yang had any abnormal movement, he would join forces with the general of the West Road to suppress him.

Old Muyang Hou looked at Gao Ming, who was tall and tall in front of him, and felt a little desperate. No one could have only friends but no enemies. It happened that Gao Ming and the Mu family had always been inconsistent with each other. The Mu family was a descendant. Gao Ming and Mu Yang were similar in age, but Mu Yang's family background was far from comparable to a grassroots background like Gao Ming. Therefore, even though Gao Ming followed Mo Jingli when Mo Jingli was still a prince without real power, after Mo Jingli ascended the throne, his status was still far inferior to Mu Yang. The disagreement between the two can be said to be something that the entire Chu army knew. Mo Jingli took him to go, although he might be worried that others would be in love with Mu Yang and showed mercy. However, sending Gao Ming to the house was almost the same as Mu Yang's life.

Old Muyang Hou fell to the ground dejectedly, but Mo Jingli was too lazy to even look at him and left with a look.

The eunuch who had been kneeling beside him quickly got up and asked someone to take the old Muyang Marquis back to the prison to guard closely. The old Muyang Marquis stared at the eunuch fiercely and his eyes were so bitter that he felt that there must be something wrong with it. However, he was imprisoned by Mo Jingli at this time, and he could not do anything to investigate the truth. The eunuch glanced at the surroundings and suddenly approached the old Muyang Marquis and smiled softly, lowered his voice and said, "Old Marquis, don't blame our family. Who made you offend someone you shouldn't offend?"

"It's you!" Old Muyang Hou cursed sternly.

"Why are you still standing there? You haven't taken the person down and guarded him well. If the Ding Prince's Mansion is asked to rescue the person, no one of us will live." The eunuch waved his hand and said sharply. Old Marquis of Muyang was dragged out without any resistance.

A day later, the news came to everyone was very helpless.

"Report to the general, the emperor ordered General Gao Ming to lead 50,000 elite troops to help the general." The tent suddenly became heavy, and the generals of the Marquis of Muyang's mansion looked extremely ugly.

Mu Yang sneered, "Fifty thousand elite soldiers come to help General Zhao?" One of the mockery was beyond words. Everyone present understood that if you say help, what is the difference between 50,000 people? Now there are more than 100,000 Western Army soldiers in the camp, 100,000 Mu Yang's hands, and more than 100,000 Lei Tengfeng's people. The total force is more than 400,000, and his own strength is twice that of Lu Jinxian. Now these 50,000 people are probably not used to deal with Lu Jinxian, but to guard against Mu Yang.

Zhao Lian sighed and asked, "Where has General Gao been?"

The soldiers reported: "General Gao's army is already thirty miles away. In addition... General Gao sent someone to pass the order... Marquis Muyang intends to rebel, and ask the general to take him down immediately. After General Gao arrives, he will escort him back to the camp and be sent to the emperor." As soon as these words came out, the generals of Marquis Muyang's mansion present stood up one after another and stared at everyone with a bad expression.

Just when Zhao Lian was in a dilemma, the noise of war drums came from outside the camp. Zhao Lian was shocked and quickly made a decision. He said in a deep voice: "The Mo family army is calling for the battle, and the generals follow the general out of the camp to fight!"

After saying that, he ignored Mu Yang and others and walked out directly. Lei Tengfeng stood up, looked at Mu Yang who was standing aside, sighed and shook his head and followed him out. In the big tent, the general of the Mu Yang Marquis' Mansion who stayed behind asked in a low voice: "Marty, we..."

Mu Yang closed his eyes and said resolutely: "Those who are willing to stay and go out to fight with General Zhao, and those who are willing to go with me, let's go now!" A few of the people present silently withdrew and followed Zhao Lian out. The rest were willing to follow Mu Yang. Although the choices were different, no one had the heart to despise anyone at this time. Following Mu Yang this path is not easy. Mu Yang's Marquis Mansion is not as powerful as the Ding Prince's Mansion. It is not that you can be the king if you take the army all the way. These people who are willing to follow Mu Yang can be said to be the confidant of the Marquis Mansion, or the Marquis Mansion of Mu Yang has the grace of life with him.

Mu Yang glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Thank you Mu Yang, thank you all. Go back and bring your own troops, and we will leave immediately."

So, outside the camp, two soldiers and horses ran to different places. When Mu Yang came, he brought 100,000 soldiers, but only 30,000 to 40,000 people were actually following him. Looking at the direction where Mu Yang led his troops away, Zhao Lian sighed slightly, with regret in his eyes. Mu Yang's future path was probably not far away. Originally, if he was given time, Mu Yang would have become a general who was not inferior to his father. But now, with only 30,000 to 40,000 people, there was neither food nor support, Mu Yang's future path was destined.

Lei Tengfeng stood beside Zhao Lian and asked lightly: "Don't you regret letting him go?" Zhao Lian sighed: "I have tried my best, it's better than the army's mutiny." Lei Tengfeng nodded in agreement, asking Mu Yang to take away 30,000 to 40,000 people and horses without much hindering the army. However, if Mu Yang is really captured or killed, I am afraid that the generals who were originally in love with Mu Yang's Marquis' Mansion will inevitably feel sad. When the time comes, if someone is instigated, I am afraid that the 30,000 to 40,000 people will be lost.
