At the end of the trestle, Sun Dayong saw Lin Jue walking back to the shore from the trestle. He came forward to greet him nervously, his eyes flickering, as if he had deep meaning.
"Commander, it's getting late, we have to go back home quickly." Sun Dayong said.
Lin Jue nodded without saying anything. Sun Dayong waved his hand, and more than a dozen accompanying guards surrounded Lin Jue without saying a word and hurriedly left from the back garden. Huang Jiang, the commander of the guards, wanted to come forward to say hello to Lin Jue, but Sun Dayong was stopped by him.
He stood in front of him and was not allowed to get close, so he had to bow and salute and watch Lin Jue and others leave.
Everyone quickly left the gate of the old palace, mounted their horses and left at full speed. After running two streets, they saw a group of Luoyan Army cavalry patrolling the market. Sun Dayong immediately stopped them and ordered them to escort Lin Jue. The group of cavalry recognized him.
When Lin Jue arrived, he was as surprised as if he had met an idol. He did not expect to have the honor of escorting the commander back to his home, and they were all so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.
On the long street, the people of the capital set off colorful fireworks in celebration, illuminating the street as bright as day. There were cheers and cheers everywhere, and many people went out of their homes to enjoy the fireworks.
They did not realize it later, but starting from the afternoon, Yang Xiu began to transport food and posted notices, telling the people that from now on, they would collect food by head at 30 streets and alleys in the city. The time was tentatively set for a
During this month, the people in the city need to be fully prepared to make a living. The court will announce the opening of markets and sailing in a few days, and all order in the city will be gradually restored. To put it bluntly, this time food distribution
The supplies are to give the people a one-month buffer period so that they can resume their normal lives during this month. Businesses are opened, workshops are started, docks are opened to navigation, and those who work hard have to find work. In short, the purpose is to provide the people with no need.
Return to normal life without any worries.
This news was of course reassuring. When the people saw hope, they were naturally overjoyed and spontaneously set off fireworks and firecrackers to celebrate the new life.
The streets were full of excitement, but Lin Jue and others had no time to stop and watch. Sun Dayong even urged to speed up, and soon returned to Lin Jue's mansion.
As soon as he entered the hall and before he could stand still, Sun Dayong said to Lin Jue in a deep voice: "Commander, do you know that you just escaped death?"
Lin Jue was not as surprised as he expected. Instead, he sat on a chair and loudly ordered: "Come here, make some tea. I'm very thirsty."
Sun Dayong said in a deep voice: "Commander, did you hear what I said?"
Lin Jue turned his head, looked at Sun Dayong and said with a smile: "You heard it, escaped from death, right? I understand, no need to make a fuss."
Sun Dayong said in shock: "What is all this fuss about? Does the commander know that under the trestle just now..."
"Is there hidden human hands? I saw it." Lin Jue interrupted lightly.
The boss, Sun Dayong, opened his mouth and said in shock: "It turns out that the commander has already discovered it."
Lin Jue said coldly: "Not only are there people hiding under the trestle, there are also people hiding beside the stone barriers around the waterside pavilion. Just when I was talking to my uncle, there were
This guy accidentally exposed his sword. He may not know that there is no moon in the sky tonight, and the waves on the lake cannot reflect that bright light. The tip of the guy's sword reflected the light of the waterside pavilion's lantern, but it was caught by me
Then I discovered at least seven people hiding there in the shadows. I only discovered the people hiding under the trestle when I left. The palace tested the lights, and the light suddenly became bright. They suffered under the trestle.
I was frightened because there was too much movement while hiding from the light. I was already alert and naturally discovered them."
Sun Dayong suddenly realized and said softly: "Beizi also discovered them when the lights came on. They were hiding behind the wooden pillars in the water. Although Beizi carefully checked the surroundings, he found nothing strange. Beizi is negligent and incompetent. Please call the commander in chief.
Punishment.”
Lin Jue shook his head and said: "What does it have to do with you? I'm afraid you didn't expect that he actually ambushed people with the intention of harming me. It's excusable for any omissions."
Sun Dayong said solemnly: "Commander, forgive me, I really never expected it to be like this. After I found out, I wanted to warn you, but it was the commander coming to the shore, and those guys didn't take action. I was worried
Once it was exposed, it would force them to take action. So they didn't dare to say anything. Fortunately, they didn't take action, otherwise if the commander-in-chief had any shortcomings, he would have died in his humble position."
Lin Jue said: "You did the right thing. They didn't take action. Once you took action, they knew that after you were exposed, they had no choice but to take action. In that case, I was really in danger. You did nothing wrong."
Sun Dayong bowed and said: "Yes, that's what Beizhi thinks. But... Beizhi asked more, Commander, what's going on? Why does Your Majesty...he actually ambush people to do you harm?"
?Of course, this is not a question that I should ask. I just really can’t figure it out. What is the purpose of this?"
Lin Jue sneered and said: "What else could be the reason? My brother-in-law thinks that I want to usurp the throne and become the emperor, and he is worried about me. He wants to kill me once and for all. It's really tight. Yesterday Lu Zhongtian used it
Knowing the plan to provoke the enemy, he took action immediately. Okay, very good, he felt a bit ruthless and desperate. It's a pity... Hehe, he is still the same as before, he wants to do something, but he doesn't dare to do it to the end.
When the time comes, I'm very scared. After all, you will achieve great things because of others, but you will never be able to achieve great things by yourself."
Sun Dayong was stunned for a long time, with cold sweat breaking out all over his body. He was a man who knew nothing about killing people, and he was never afraid of countless enemies on the battlefield, but the situation tonight really made him scared. He never expected that Luo Yan
The army had just captured the capital and everything was moving in the right direction. The relationship between the emperor and Marshal Lin had already reached this point. He had been ordered by Shen Tan to work undercover next to Lin Jue to inquire about information. He understood Guo to some extent.
Kun was worried and suspicious of Lin Jue. But he never expected that the matter was serious enough to resort to such methods, so why didn't he become frightened and frightened?
"The commander-in-chief is saying that he wanted to take action, but he backed down when the situation came to pass? He didn't dare, right?" Sun Dayong said.
"That depends.
Judging from the outcome of tonight's conversation, he must have made up his mind, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. But of course he has to consider the consequences. If he kills me, my brothers in the Luoyan Army will cut him into pieces. So.
He had a huge quarrel with me tonight, and finally he forced me to swear an oath that I would never usurp his throne. I agreed to him. Since he got my promise, he naturally didn't need to take risks. If I tonight
If he refuses to swear, he will think that I want to usurp the throne, and he will give orders without hesitation. Because he knows that he has no ability to resist me and can only die with me. Maybe after killing me, the situation will be reversed.
It's unknown." Lin Jue said coldly.
Sun Dayong frowned and said: "The commander-in-chief discovered the manpower he hid, so he deliberately followed his will and swore an oath, right? If he hadn't discovered the manpower hidden in the ambush, the commander-in-chief might not be willing to swear the oath according to the emperor's wishes. Then
It’s really dangerous.”
Lin Jue shook his head and said: "You are wrong. Do you think I really want to usurp the throne? I have no intention of usurping his throne, and the oath I swore was my original intention. It's because he doesn't trust me and he doesn't understand me at all.
What kind of person is he? If I have the intention to usurp the throne, can he stop me with just a few oaths? That's too ridiculous. He treats me like a villain, and that's why he behaves like this."
Sun Dayong said in a deep voice: "Then what should we do now? Since he has treated you like this, the commander-in-chief is afraid that he will take action even if he doesn't want to seize the throne. He wants to kill the commander-in-chief, how can we allow him? Commander-in-chief, you give the order, as long as
You give the order and I will ensure that he will not survive tonight. Just do nothing and let the commander-in-chief become the emperor."
Lin Jue yelled angrily: "What did you say? I protected him as the emperor, so how can I take away his throne? If I want to be the emperor, why do I have to go through all this trouble? My Luoyan Army is invincible in the world, and I can sweep across the world.
Isn’t it possible that I can’t win a kingdom? But that’s not my original intention. I used to call others traitors and traitors, and then I will become a traitor and traitors again?”
Sun Dayong said hurriedly: "Being humble doesn't mean that. Being humble means that now that the commander-in-chief knows his evil intentions, can he still be tolerated? How can we get along with him in the future if he has murderous intentions? Who knows when he will
Did you harm the commander?"
Lin Jue slowly shook his head and said: "I have my own opinion on this matter, so you don't have to worry about it too much. I know you are loyal to me, but this matter is far from as simple as you think. It's just for Caiwei's sake.
Go ahead, I have to tolerate him this time, not to mention that the overall situation has been decided, and it is not suitable for civil strife, so as not to upset the hearts of the people in the world and cause more troubles. Don't tell anyone about this matter, so as not to spread rumors.
.If any of the brothers who are going tonight know about it, you must also strictly shut them up, do you understand?"
Sun Dayong bowed and said: "As long as you are humble and obey your orders."
Lin Jue pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "That Huang Jiang... must have been involved in this matter. Now that I think about it, his expression was wrong when he entered the door. You... um... maybe you should ask him
...This...but you have to be careful. That...you should understand what I mean."
Of course Sun Dayong understood, he bowed and whispered: "Don't worry, Commander, I will handle my humble duty properly."
