The defeat of Guanlong led to a sudden change in the situation in Chang'an. The East Palace, which was originally in danger, completely gained a foothold, but Guanlong, who had the advantage, fell into passivity. Especially after successive defeats, the main army suffered serious losses, and it seems that the strength of the army is still suppressed.
East Palace, but the quality of the soldiers is very different.
If you are not careful, the Guanlongmen valve will be destroyed.
Under such circumstances, it is not just for the Red Queen and White Teeth to say "I will be responsible". It involves hundreds of years of inheritance of the Longmen clan and countless lives of the whole family. How can you take this responsibility?
?
Changsun Wuji faced the scorching eyes, chuckled, and said slowly: "If we really get to that point, I will commit suicide to thank the world and ensure that everyone can sleep peacefully."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone in the hall fell silent.
Changsun Wuji has always given people the impression that he is "scheming" and "profound". He knows how to avoid the most important and the least, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and refuses to step into dangerous places easily. Now he can say such ruthless words as "kill himself to thank the world"
It can be seen that the current situation has dealt a very serious blow to his xinxing.
Of course, if the situation really comes to that point, even if his eldest son Wuji wants to be wise and protect himself, he cannot. This mutiny caused half of Chang'an City to be reduced to rubble, the imperial city was covered with rubble, most of the Taiji Palace was destroyed, and there were countless casualties.
.Once the army is defeated, the mutiny must be classified as a "treason and rebellion." Even if the prince will not be deeply implicated in the situation of everything being done, the primary "rebel" must be severely punished.
Among the Guanlong clan, who could bear the responsibility of being the "chief rebel", other than Changsun Wuji?
So on that day, life and death are no longer under Changsun Wuji's control. He can only bear the responsibility for this crime...
However, each Guanlong family just wants a promise. Since Changsun Wuji can express his position generously, it has stabilized the minds of each family. There are already responsible people, so naturally what should be done next, and the worst result will be
It was Changsun Wuji who committed suicide to take responsibility.
If we can win, everyone will be happy.
Yu Wenshiji exclaimed: "What did Auxiliary Machine say? It's not like this, it's not like this. Guanlong is connected with the branches, and they are all integrated into one body. They are both prosperous and harmonious. Even though Auxiliary Machinery, you have benevolence and righteousness in your heart, you should be responsible for all your actions."
Therefore, how can we sit back and ignore it and feel at ease? We should work together and deal with it together."
He Lanyan nodded and agreed: "What Duke Ying said is reasonable. We will share the blessings and suffer the hardships together. If Zhao Guogong wants to be the hero of Guanlong, we will not agree."
"Ah……"
Changsun Wuji sneered, not feeling the slightest bit moved in his heart.
Listen, is this human language?
Each and every one of them affirmed that it was me who "has a benevolent heart and is responsible for all my actions" and who had the courage to take responsibility in order to be a "hero of Guanlong". If one day I end up on a dead end, it will be me who is willing to betray my trust and betrayal like you.
, selfish people have nothing to do with it...
Think good things.
His sneer was like a whip hitting the faces of everyone in the hall. Although he had long been trained to be as thick-skinned as a city wall, in the final analysis, Changsun Wuji was not preparing for the rebellion for the sake of his family. If it happened, the benefits would be
The entire Guanlong clan is unwilling to take the chance to push Changsun Wuji out to pay for his crime.
Yu Wenshiji coughed dryly and said: "The current situation is not good. With Fang Jun's temperament, it is very likely that he will take advantage of the victory to pursue the victory and raise a large number of troops to invade. At this time, the peace talks should be restarted as soon as possible. Even if nothing can be negotiated for a while, it can be delayed.
Fang Fangjun's footsteps will give us ample time to stabilize the morale of the military and reorganize the army."
Dugu Lan said: "Fang Jun's mallet is so reckless that the civil servants in the East Palace are still unable to control him. Even if peace talks are started, it will be difficult to restrain the Youtun Guards. We should gather the troops as soon as possible and reorganize them, whether for war or not."
Only through peace can we take the initiative in the battle."
While the peace talks were going on, the news suddenly broke out in the East Neiyuan that Guan Long attacked the Youtunwei camp, and then Fang Jun started a war brazenly, causing the peace talks to be terminated. Afterwards, Guan Long's entire army conducted a thorough investigation, and the result was naturally nothing.
There was no army sneak attack on Dongneiyuan that day.
The guy himself acted out a "bitter trick" and didn't pay attention to the ongoing peace talks at all. The civil servants in the East Palace, such as Xiao Yu, Cen Wenwen and other big officials, could not suppress him, not to mention the people in the East Palace who are currently hosting the peace talks.
Is it Liu Jie, the servant?
In the past, Liu Ji was nominally an ally with Fang Jun, but in fact he was dependent on Fang Jun. It was impossible to expect him to restrain Fang Jun...
Linghu Defen nodded: "This is very true, but you have overlooked one thing. Last time Fang Jun raided our army outside Tonghua Gate, and Fang Jun has repeatedly resisted the peace talks, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been
He has not reprimanded or punished... Is His Highness the Crown Prince willing to negotiate for peace?"
He raised this issue for the first time within Guanlong. In the past, this was indeed ignored by everyone, and was only regarded as the crown prince's favor and indulgence of Fang Junzhi. But now that he thinks about it carefully, I am afraid it is not that simple.
Changsun Wuji, who was in an extremely unhappy mood, was also attracted. He frowned and pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said: "Logically speaking, the prince must support the peace talks. After all, until now, we still have the advantage, and with the help of all the powerful people in the world, our strength is still overwhelming.
Overwhelm the East Palace army. If this battle continues, the East Palace's chance of winning is less than 30%. It would be unwise to gamble with the 30% on the prince's position and the life and death of the East Palace. Don't forget, there is another Li Ji over at Tongguan who has an unclear position and is eyeing him...
...Only by promoting peace talks as soon as possible and eliminating this war, can the crown prince's position be as stable as Mount Tai. Otherwise, if the throne is not guaranteed and the East Palace is overturned, wouldn't it be asking for death?"
He could not think of any reason why the prince would not want to negotiate peace.
Indeed, if the peace talks are reached, it will greatly damage the prince's prestige, but the emperor Zhengshuo will have to compromise with the "rebels" and sign an alliance under the city. It is inevitable that people all over the world will talk about it, and he will become a laughing stock in the history of history.
However, prestige is important, but you have to ensure that people survive, right?
But even he couldn't convince himself of what he said. After all, even if the prince favored Fang Jun and obeyed his words, he couldn't still condone Fang Jun's wanton behavior in such a matter of life and death, right?
But if the prince himself does not agree with the peace talks, it is illogical...
Yu Wenshiji rubbed his forehead and said: "Regardless of what the prince thinks, the first priority is to promote the peace talks as soon as possible. After all, no matter what the prince says, the officials of the East Palace strongly support the peace talks."
Since the military remonstrance, the Sixth Commander of the East Palace and the Youtun Guards have shone brightly in the audience with their outstanding achievements, which have overshadowed all the East Palace civil servants. This has damaged the vital interests of the East Palace civil servants. How can they endure it? So the Youtun Guards fought harder and harder.
The more ruthless and obedient the civil servants are, the more they want to promote peace talks as soon as possible in order to check and balance the status and merit of the Youtun Guards and the Sixth Commander of the East Palace.
Even if the prince doesn't want peace talks, he can no longer stop the civil servants of the East Palace, unless he only relies on the army to live...
"Then I'll excuse you, my dear friend. Please do everything."
Changsun Wuji spoke sincerely. After this battle, the ambition and longing in his heart were completely defeated. He no longer dared to think about deposing the East Palace and establishing a new prince. He only wanted to put an end to the military revolt as soon as possible and restore the court to its original state.
Then plan slowly.
After all, the current direction of the situation is already unpredictable, and the lives of the entire clan and the Guanlong clan cannot be pushed into the abyss of the unknown...
Yu Wenshiji said with emotion: "Don't worry, auxiliary. I have been hanging around in the court for many years. I can't do anything in literature or military. Fortunately, you have taken care of me. I feel ashamed. I can still contribute to such things as mediation.
Naturally, we will spare no effort, even if our bodies are broken into pieces, we must try our best to promote it.”
Changsun Wuji waved his hand with a warm expression: "Why do you say such things, my dear brother? We, the Guanlong clan, are in the same boat. We have united with each other and forged ahead hand in hand since our ancestors. We have never hidden any selfish thoughts. Only then can we
This is the reason why we are so glorious today. You and I are all descendants of Guanlong, and we are blessed by the shadow of our ancestors. All we need to do is have a clear conscience."
Linghu Defen, Dugulan and others also nodded repeatedly and all said they were good.
Not long ago, they were blaming each other and wanted to stab each other in the back. In the blink of an eye, they were sympathetic and sincere. The most difficult thing is that everyone's transition was extremely natural, and there was no trace of rigidity in their movements.
, as pure as nature, as wonderful as the pinnacle...
Everyone sat around and had a detailed discussion on how to restart the peace talks, and how to test the bottom line of the East Palace. Of course, the peace talks are destined to be a complicated and long process, and the first priority is how to restrain the Youtun Guards.
This will prevent them from ignoring the progress of the peace talks and brazenly sending troops to attack.
At this moment, a clerk from outside quickly came in and reported: "Inform Duke Zhao that the British Duke has sent someone to come and say that they have something to ask for."
The hall fell silent for a moment, and you could hear a pin drop.
Even Changsun Wuji, who has always been a sober man in the city, couldn't help but take a deep breath: Is this going to be a final showdown?
