What frightened Sun Wanchun was not only the secret situation about the Northwest Army in Guo Xu's confession, but also the truth about Guo Xu's seizure of the throne that has been widely discussed.
After Guo Xu was kidnapped by the Luoyan Army, he still had illusions. He hoped to win Lin Jue's forgiveness and get the support of the Luoyan Army to make a comeback. Therefore, he showed an extremely frank attitude. This confession was
It was written by Guo Xu himself under this situation. Guo Xu wanted to use this confession as a letter of surrender to impress Lin Jue. He wrote down all the things that happened back then in this confession without any reservation.
Above. Guo Xu's idea was to deliberately use this confession as a handle to give to Lin Jue, thus dispelling Lin Jue's doubts and preventing Lin Jue from thinking that he was just a temporary compromise forced by the situation and would settle accounts in the future.
He handed his most secret information into Lin Jue's hands, so Lin Jue didn't have to worry about what might happen in the future.
Some people may think that Guo Xu was extremely naive in doing this. But in fact, when he fell into the hands of the Luoyan Army, he had no choice. Of course he realized that his situation was extremely dangerous. If nothing else, he
He knew that Guo Kun would definitely not let him go, because Guo Kun definitely wanted to kill him and replace him. So what he could do was win Lin Jue's support, which was also the only choice he could make in a desperate situation. As for Lin Jue, Guo Kun
Xu believed that although she had issues with him before, she did not cause substantial harm to him after all, and there was no substantial interest dispute between the two. Fang Dunru's death may be the reason why Lin Jue cannot forgive himself.
One, but he only played some role in Fang Dunru's death and was not the mastermind. Moreover, the relationship between Fang Dunru and Lin Jue was just that of teacher and student, not true blood relatives, so this layer of grudges should not be
As for being irreconcilable.
As for the death of Concubine Rong, Guo Xu didn't think that Lin Jue would be serious with him for her sake. Lu Wu and Concubine Rong had been separated for many years, and the relationship between mother and daughter had long been dull. Lin Jue and Concubine Rong had no relationship at all.
Are you still clinging to this matter?
It was out of this thought and with the last glimmer of hope that Guo Xu confessed many sensitive things in his confession, including what he did when he seized the throne. He killed the prince Guo Mian and forced his father, the emperor Guo Chong.
After giving up the throne, Guo Chong's illness worsened and he died, as well as the bloodbath in the harem. Of course, Guo Xu did not forget to attribute these actions to Lu Zhongtian's instigation and shift the responsibility to Lu Zhongtian. He also revealed a lot in his confession
Lu Zhongtian planned and designed the courtiers and secretly operated many conspiracies for himself to become the prince. This was naturally an attempt to alleviate his own crimes, and it was also revenge on Lu Zhongtian, allowing Lin Jue and the others to transfer their hatred to Lu Zhongtian.
The content of such a confession was now seen by Sun Wanchun from beginning to end. Apart from being shocked, many questions in his mind were solved. It turned out that the rumors that Guo Xu usurped the throne and killed the prince and bloodbathed the harem were all true. Originally, Northwest
There is a consensus among the military on this matter, that is, they all believe that these things are fabricated by Lin Jue and Guo Bing and his son to smear the emperor. Of course, they
The reason why they think so is because the Privy Councilor Yang Jun told them so. The Northwest Army is a direct descendant of Yang Jun. Yang Jun said that it was fabricated and smeared by others. In the minds of the generals of the Northwest Army, this is the truth.
Because of this, the generals of the Northwest Army could not accept the fact that Guo Kun killed Guo Xu, and they also had a prejudice against the Luoyan Army. Originally, the Luoyan Army was a rebel of the imperial court, and Guo Kun killed the emperor Guo Xu. The generals of the Northwest Army
How can you accept it? Therefore, even though the Luoyan Army has made it clear that it is the main force in fighting against foreign enemies, and the new emperor's accession to the throne is actually a matter of course, the generals of the Northwest Army still decided not to associate with the Luoyan Army.
But now, the truth is before our eyes, and everything is completely different.
Sun Wanchun read the confession in front of all the generals, and there was a sudden gasp in the hall. Everyone was so shocked that their jaws almost dropped, and their mouths were wide open and could not be closed for a long time. They never expected it.
, I was able to learn so many secret things today. It overturned many of their previous hearings and opinions, and their previous impressions of many people. For a while, I couldn't accept it emotionally.
"How is it possible? How is this possible? This confession must be a forgery. It must be a fake. It must be forged by your Luoyan Army to deceive us. We don't believe it." Someone shouted.
"Yes, yes, it must be a forgery. How could it be like this? Absolutely impossible." Someone echoed loudly.
Ma Bin stretched out his hand to take back the letter in Sun Wanchun's hand, and sneered: "You guys are hopeless. My Marshal Lin was afraid that you wouldn't believe the facts we told you, and that you didn't know who killed your Master Yuan, so he took it out
This confession serves as supporting evidence. This is a confession written by Guo Xu himself. You don’t even believe his words. What can I say? This matter is something that Guo Xu has personally experienced. If everything is fabricated, then what else can I say?
How can it be so precise? If you think carefully about the details after the Northwest Army arrived in the capital, and then recall Mr. Yuan's words and deeds, and see if you can get the number right, don't you know the truth? If you insist on hiding your ears, insist on just
If you believe what you want to believe, then there is nothing I can do about it. Mr. Yuan is the commander of your Northwest Army. As their subordinates, you who have been favored and cultivated by him have turned a deaf ear to the fact that he was framed. We outsiders still
Can I force you to believe it? In one sentence, if you believe it, you can believe it. If you don’t believe it, I won’t waste my breath.”
The generals swallowed their saliva and looked at each other. One general suddenly said in a deep voice: "This matter... I remembered it. When Lord Yuan came to Beijing to face the saint that day, General Zhao, the commander of the bodyguard, accompanied him to protect him. That day
They left the city and returned to the camp in the middle of the night. I was on night duty in the front army that night, and it was I who escorted them back to the camp. I heard that General Zhao said that Mr. Yuan met with the emperor, and was later invited by Lu Zhongtian to talk for a long time.
In terms of time, General Zhao said that Mr. Yuan seemed to have some thoughts after he came out of Lu Zhongtian's mansion, and asked us not to talk too much and make Mr. Yuan troubled."
A general asked: "What does that mean?"
Another general said: "I remember that Mr. Yuan was summoned by the emperor's imperial decree.
He entered the palace to meet the Holy Spirit. Lord Yuan had no intention of giving Lu Zhongtian a good face before he came to Beijing. After all, because of Privy Yang's incident, Lord Yuan had a grudge against Lu Zhongtian. Later, when he met Lu Zhongtian again, it was indeed a bit strange."
"What's even more strange is that the original decision was to have soldiers and horses enter the capital to defend the city the next day, but suddenly the order was changed to attack the city, and the order was changed after returning from the city. It is really strange." Another person said.
"It's a pity that General Zhao died in the battle. All the personal guards who followed Mr. Yuan died in the battle. Now we can't know the specific things that happened that day. There is no way to verify it." Someone said softly.
While the generals were discussing, Sun Wanchun frowned and thought. Then he suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "You don't need to guess. This confession is absolutely true. I believe it is true. Lord Yuan gave the order that day.
When Tianming attacked the Jurchens, he did say that the imperial imperial army would go out of the city to outflank and attack the Jurchens. I was present at that time, along with Commander Zhao and Deputy Commander Liu. We also helped Mr. Yuan in the war.
Based on deductions, I thought this battle would be won. Before, I thought it was because our Northwest Army cavalry was defeated so quickly that the Imperial Guards in the city were defeated before they even had time to dispatch, so I didn’t suspect that this was a trick. But now that I think about it, they totally had it.
Opportunity to send troops. And... the Iron Buddha cavalry suddenly appeared, catching us off guard. Mr. Yuan did not mention the Iron Buddha at all before. This heavy cavalry was not included in the deduction. This is definitely not Mr. Yuan's negligence, but
Lord Yuan didn't know the existence of this enemy heavy cavalry at all. Since Lu Zhongtian wanted to attack the Jurchens at the same time as Lord Yuan, why didn't he tell Lord Yuan this information? As for Tiefu Tu, who showed up when he went south, Lu Zhongtian didn't
Maybe he didn’t know that the Jurchens had such heavy cavalry, so why didn’t he tell Mr. Yuan? Various signs indicate that it was Lu Zhongtian’s deliberate concealment, which was the key to our Northwest Army’s tragic defeat. This is the truth, there is nothing
Questioned."
The generals were sweating all over and their hearts were beating wildly. There was also a naive general who asked himself: "But why did Lu Zhongtian do this?"
"General Wang, are you stupid? Lu Zhongtian wants to control the emperor and take advantage of the chaos to steal the country. He doesn't want Mr. Yuan to enter the capital. Then he will be unable to control the emperor and achieve his ambitions. The emperor wrote this in his confession
, I’ve read it too, but you still don’t understand?” Sun Wanchun sighed.
"This dog thief, Lu Zhongtian, this dog thief, damn it, it turns out that he is causing trouble in everything. We... Mr. Yuan and more than 100,000 soldiers, it turns out that they were all tricked by this old thief. This old thief,
Afterwards, they pretended to send people to express condolences and asked us to station in the capital."
"Yes, this old dog has long been thinking of colluding with the Jurchens to steal my empire. This old thief... this old thief should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts."
"It's pity Master Yuan and so many brothers. They died in the tricks of one of our own people. I'm afraid they won't be able to rest in peace. Oh, oh, oh, oh, you are so damn useless."
The generals of the Northwest Army gnashed their teeth and cursed, and some burst into tears and burst into tears.
