The first nineteen nine chapters are tongue-in-cheek
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I don't dare to take it seriously. General Bai is too polite. General Bai looks out of place. He must have never served as an official in the capital, or is he just blind?"
Bai Qi said in a deep voice: "Master Lin has good eyesight. I have been leading the army in the border town. From joining the army to now, I have not left Yanyun for twenty years. Master Lin naturally does not know me. However, Master Lin is famous, and Bai is
I already heard about it when I was in the border town."
Lin Jue laughed and said: "I see, it turns out that General Bai led the army to fight against the barbarians in the border town, which is disrespectful and disrespectful. However, he has not left the border town for twenty years, so how did he come here this time? Oh, I know.
Yes, it was Guo Xu who asked you to come back to help. Hahaha, our Luoyan Army does have some respect. Doesn’t Guo Xu have no confidence in himself? Doesn’t he claim to be a leading wizard? Why are he still looking for help? "
"Hahaha. He is just a waste, a self-righteous waste."
"Can he lead an army in a war? An old sow can climb a tree."
All the generals laughed and jeered.
Bai Qi looked ugly and said to Lin Jue in a deep voice: "Sir Lin, your words are too much. That is me, the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty. How can I insult you with such obscene words? Even if it is hostility, it should not be like this."
Lin Jue laughed and said: "General Bai, can Guo Xu still be considered a human being? This person killed his father and brother, killed the women and children in the harem, and usurped the throne. He is not as good as a pig or a dog. It's easy to scold this kind of person. Yes,
He is indeed occupying the throne, but we do not agree with his status as emperor."
Bai Qi said coldly: "Master Lin is also a scholar, and you should know the relationship between the emperor and his ministers. Let alone whether what you said is true, even if it is true, the emperor is still the emperor, and whoever sits in the Guo family is the emperor. The Tang Dynasty
Not only did Li Shimin usurp the throne, but he eventually became the emperor for eternity. I and other ministers should not dictate the internal affairs of the royal family, let alone start an army to rebel, which is even more unbecoming of a minister."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "I didn't expect General Bai's eloquence to be quite good. Li Shimin has already moved out. Can Guo Xu compare with Li Shimin? Besides, is what Li Shimin did right? Li Shimin is the one who opened the devil's box. He
It set an extremely bad precedent. By the end of the Li and Tang dynasties, there were endless killings within the palace. Fathers and sons killed each other, husbands and wives killed each other, mothers, sons, daughters and brothers killed each other. Yes, Li Shimin was indeed a talented and strategic emperor, who created the Li Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty was prosperous. However, later generations followed his example and killed each other endlessly. This was also an important reason for Li Tang's decline. It was a stain that he could not wash away no matter how hard he tried. Guo Xu wanted to learn from Li Shimin? He actually learned Li Shimin's cruelty.
However, he does not have Li Shimin’s talent and strategy. He loves great achievements, has great ambitions and lacks talents, and is also immoral and unethical. How can such a person become the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty? His becoming the emperor is not a blessing to the Great Zhou Dynasty, but a sign of the decline of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Therefore, I
I followed Prince Liang and his son's cavalry to attack this unkind, unjust, loyal and unfilial man, precisely to restore the order of our Great Zhou Dynasty and save the country of Great Zhou Dynasty. Does General Bai understand this truth?"
Bai Qi frowned and thought for a long time, then smacked his lips and said: "I can't say anything to you, Mr. Lin. I have heard that you, Mr. Lin, are eloquent in arguments, but today I know that what you said is true. I am not here to argue with you. I am a big man in my lower body."
Zhou Chenzi is also a leading general. He only knows how to be loyal to the country and obey orders. I don't pay attention to other things, and I don't want to study them in detail."
Lin Jue nodded
Said: "It is because of people like you that the Great Zhou Dynasty has ended up in this situation today. You don't distinguish between right and wrong, and don't care about the corruption of the world. To put it nicely, you are loyal; to put it worst, you are aiding the evil. You don't care when you see evil.
To get rid of them is equivalent to committing evil. What's more, to become an accomplice indiscriminately is to be an evil slave."
Bai Qi shouted angrily: "Mr. Lin, I respect you three points, but you insult me in front of me. You are a scholar, how can you be less polite than me, a person from the military? You make me look down on you."
Lin Jue couldn't help but sneer, and Ma Bin shouted loudly: "You bitch, do you still want to run wild when you come here? Believe it or not, I will pull off your head and use it as a urinal?"
Bai Qi said coldly: "Since I dare to come here, I am not afraid of anything. I thought that with Mr. Lin here, at least Luoyan Valley would have some rules and etiquette, and it wouldn't be like a sea of bandits.
This is a place where rough people gather. Now it seems that I was wrong. It’s really disappointing. I feel free to kill or cut into pieces. If someone was afraid of death, he wouldn’t come here.”
"Then I'll kill you, so what can I do? If you help the tyrants to commit cruelty, I'll kill you one by one." Ma Bin Canglang drew out his weapon with a loud sound and cursed fiercely.
Lin Jue waved his hand and said: "Brother Ma, it doesn't have to be like this. What General Bai said makes some sense. If the two armies are fighting and don't kill the envoy, we will lack the etiquette to kill him. He can help the evil, but we can't follow their example.
A loyal and unjust person who is ignorant and ignorant.”
Ma Bin took back his weapon and said, "What I'm saying is that he is not a human being, but we cannot lack etiquette. If we want to kill people, we can kill them just like on the battlefield, but there is no need to kill him now."
Lin Jue smiled and nodded, turned to look at Bai Qi and said, "General Bai, why are you here this time? We are at war. If you come to see me now, are you here to surrender?"
Everyone laughed loudly.
Bai Qi said in a deep voice: "Mr. Lin, Mr. Bai didn't come up to the mountain to quarrel with you and act violently. I am here to talk to Mr. Lin about some things according to the emperor's order. Some things need to be explained clearly."
Lin Jue nodded and said: "Well, since you are here, we cannot lack the courtesy. Come and invite the young prince here. Just tell Guo Xu to send someone to negotiate and ask the young prince to speak to General Bai face to face."
Sun Dayong accepted his promise and went out to ask Guo Kun to come, but Bai Qi shouted: "No need, the emperor said, only talk to Mr. Lin, there is no need to talk to Prince Liang and the young prince."
Lin Jue frowned and said: "This is strange. The leader of my Luoyan Army is King Bianliang. You don't talk to him but you come to talk to me. What does that mean?"
Bai Qi said: "This is the emperor's order. Besides, whose troops are the Luoyan Army? Why does Mr. Lin need to pretend? It's better to talk to him than to talk to Mr. Lin."
Lin Jue scolded: "Are you trying to instigate a relationship between me and King Bianliang in person? You have ulterior motives. Damn it!"
Bai Qi said sternly: "Mr. Lin, you are overthinking. Bai has absolutely no such intention."
Lin Jue thought for a while and said: "Originally, there is no need for negotiation between us. The best negotiation is on the battlefield. But I think that a sword fight will not be of any benefit to both parties, nor will it be of any benefit to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
.Then let’s talk. If you have anything to say, just say it.”
Bai Qi turned around and looked at the people around him, and said in deep thought: "Bai wants to talk to Mr. Lin alone."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "These are my brothers of life and death. Is there anything I can't say in front of them? Why are you so sneaky?"
Bai Qi said: "Bai didn't mean anything else. It's just that there are many people talking. Bai is not here to quarrel, but to talk about things. Besides, some things cannot be said in front of everyone. Mr. Lin should understand at this point."
Of course, Lin Jue understood. In fact, Lin Jue had some guesses about Bai Qi's purpose. After a big battle, Bai Qi came to negotiate. It was obvious that he came with some purpose. There may be some conditions that he could not meet people. In the exchange of interests, everyone was present, so it was inconvenient to say a lot of things.
Lin Jue thought for a while and said: "That's fine, it's as you wish. Please come to the side hall with me."
Lin Jue stood up and walked towards the small hall on the side. Bai Qi followed up. Ma Bin leaned sideways to block him and shouted: "Wait a minute, the guy on the mountain is even here."
Bai Qi sneered and said, "Master Ma is too careful. He is worthy of being from the Imperial City Department."
Ma Bin shouted: "Stop talking nonsense, I don't believe you people at all. If you don't take the initiative to leave your weapons, I will take action."
Bai Qi sneered repeatedly, reached out to take off the sword from his waist, took out a dagger from his boot and threw it on the ground. Then Ma Bin put down his horizontal arm and asked him to follow Lin Jue away.
In the small hall at the west end, Lin Jue asked Bai Qi to sit down and ordered someone to close the door and hang the curtain. He turned around and sat opposite Bai Qi and said with a smile: "General Bai, just tell me what you want."
Bai Qi nodded and said: "Mr. Lin, I won't beat around the bush anymore. I came to see Mr. Lin on the emperor's order, and I brought some sincerity from the emperor. The emperor said that there may be some misunderstanding between him and you. At the beginning, I There are also some festivals in the capital, but those have passed. He has always admired Mr. Lin. Once upon a time, he even visited Mr. Lin personally, hoping to discuss state affairs with him. "
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "This is indeed the case, but we are not conspiring against each other. Guo Xu and I are not the same people. The relationship between me and him is not just a holiday. In private, he kidnapped my wife Lu Wu. Princess, you intend to persecute me. The deaths of my teachers Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengshen were also caused by persecution by him and Lu Zhongtian and others. As far as the Duke is concerned, he killed the emperor and the prince, the queen, the queen, and committed an act of a beast that was outraged by both humans and gods. He usurped I, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and as a minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, how can I allow thieves to run rampant. Whether it is public or private, there is no small dispute between me and him. It cannot be resolved with a few words."
Bai Qi nodded and said: "Since Mr. Lin claims to be a minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it shows that Mr. Lin still has the intention of surrendering to the Great Zhou Dynasty. With this in mind, it will be easy for us to talk about anything."
Lin Jue smiled faintly and said: "What affiliation? I am a minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The rebellion of our Luoyan Army is not to rebel against the Great Zhou Dynasty, but to rebel against Guo Xu. You have to understand this. I, the Luoyan Army, are not bandits. Grass bandits, we are soldiers and horses under Guo Kun, King of Bianliang. We want to avenge the late emperor and eradicate Guo Xu, the traitor who usurped the throne. We hold the seal of the Great Zhou Dynasty entrusted by the late emperor, and we are the army of justice. If you are even like this I have no idea at all, what else can we talk about?"
Bai Qi was stunned and said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, it's my fault. What Mr. Lin said is true. But Bai asked Mr. Lin, what did you bring to the Great Zhou Dynasty by raising your flag and rebelling like this? Who suffers in the end? Who is harmed?"
