(There have been a lot of guests at home in the past few days, and we can't neglect the Chinese New Year, so the speed and quality of coding have been affected. I apologize to everyone. It should get better after the Lantern Festival, and I will adjust the state and speed up.
Apologize again!)
"Then it depends on why. For the throne of Zhou Dynasty, what is there that he wouldn't dare to do? Besides, on the surface, the cult bandits are fighting with us, and it has nothing to do with him. He doesn't have to take action personally, and he doesn't have to bear the reputation, so why not
Do? He is only thinking about competing with you for the crown prince position. He is at a disadvantage this time in countering the rebellion, and he is unwilling to accept it. What is a faster way than to take the opportunity to eliminate you. After you are eliminated, the future throne will belong to him.
King Jin, if you still refuse to believe it and still hold on to the benevolence of a woman and think that everyone is as affectionate and righteous as you, you will not know who is the real person who harmed you until your death. Today I have already
Even though I made my words clear, you still refuse to believe me and tell me that this is a stupid move."
Guo Kun had no respect for Guo Mian to begin with, and at this moment, he was not polite at all in his words, showing no distinction between superiority and inferiority. He was so excited that he had no choice in his words.
Guo Mian stood there blankly, frowning and still shaking his head: "I...I still can't believe what you said. No matter what, it won't come to this point. Guo Xu has never dared to do anything to me since he was a child.
No disrespect, I am his eldest brother, and my father once sternly warned the two of us not to criticize each other at any time, otherwise he would never obey. How could he be so bold? Unless I can provide evidence, I can't
letter."
Guo Kun was so angry that he was about to curse. He wanted to speak angrily, but Lin Jue, who had been silent, waved his hand. Lin Jue was worried that Guo Kun's irritable temper would arouse Guo Mian's resentment and give Guo Mian the feeling of being eager to frame him.
The feeling of blaming Guo Xu. If Guo Mian becomes suspicious, it will cost more words.
"His Royal Highness King Jin. I wonder if I can explain a few words to His Highness King Jin." Lin Jue said softly.
"Okay, okay, Lin Jue, tell me. Is Guo Kun a little confused? How could he come up with such a bizarre idea? We are all scholars. Although there are records of brothers fighting against each other in history books, how could it happen?
In my Zhou Dynasty, a land of etiquette and benevolence, how can I believe it if I just make random guesses without evidence?" Guo Mian nodded towards Lin Jue.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "What evidence does your highness want? Does it require King Huai to come to you and personally admit that he wants to kill people with a knife and use the hands of Qingjiao bandits to harm you, King Jin?"
Guo Mian frowned and said, "What do you mean by that? Am I such a confused person? But everything must be done with evidence. How can you just say something so important?"
Guo Kun shouted: "Prince Jin..."
Lin Jue waved his hand to stop him and said to Guo Mian: "What your Highness is saying is that this matter is serious and requires convincing evidence. In fact, there are many things that no longer need to be said. The dispute between His Highness the King of Jin and the King of Huai is related to the fight for the crown prince.
The discussion has been going on for a long time, and we don’t know the clues. Maybe we have misunderstood the relationship between His Highness the King of Jin and His Highness the Prince of Huai. Maybe His Highness the King of Jin and His Highness the Prince of Huai are brothers who respect and love each other.
There is no intention to compete for the position of prince at all, but to give up the position of prince to each other with humility. We outsiders are afraid that the heart of a villain is judging the heart of a gentleman."
Guo Mian shouted: "Lin Jue, you don't have to say ironic things to ridicule me. According to the ancestral system, only I am qualified to occupy the position of prince. It is absolutely impossible for King Huai to get involved. There is indeed some fighting between us, but
It won’t come to this.”
Lin Jue laughed and said: "Yes, the empire of the Zhou Dynasty cannot match the brotherhood in the heart of King Huai. After King Huai defeated Yingtian, he just stood still and rested. It was not that he did not send troops on purpose, right? It was not that he wanted Qing Qing to surrender.
Did the religious bandits get a chance to breathe? Is it just out of official business and selfless for Prime Minister Lu to visit Yingtian Mansion to deliver the imperial edict of commendation? After Yingtian Mansion increased its troops, it still did not go to exterminate the religious bandits but instead attacked surrounding remote cities. That's right
Is the most correct decision? Hai Dongqing is gathering the remnants of the religious bandits in Chengwu County. Now there are 40,000 to 50,000 people. They will not attack anyone, but just stay in Chengwu County and wait for the officers and soldiers to kill them all.
Is it an encirclement and suppression? His Highness the King of Jin and Marquis Du Yu jointly submitted a petition to the imperial court to send troops for reinforcements, but it was right that they were immediately rejected, because it was unreasonable, right? His Highness the King of Jin's previous private petition requesting to return to Beijing alone was also rejected, then
You are definitely not forcing King Jin to stay in this dangerous place, are you?"
Lin Jue asked a series of questions like a barrage, all of which were ironic and told the facts of what happened. Guo Mian frowned as he listened, grabbing the corner of the desk and breaking the wood hard, with well-maintained slender hair.
The fingers were deformed and the knuckles turned white from exertion.
Lin Jue's rhetorical questions continued: "Is it just a coincidence that the imperial court suddenly summoned me back to Beijing to award me an award today? How can I, Lin Jue, be so virtuous and capable? The award needs to be presented to the saint and announced by the emperor himself? In short, everything is in
It seems to King Jin that everything is normal, right? But what we want to tell King Jin is that these things seem to be abnormal to us. We don’t have any of the so-called conclusive evidence you want. All the evidence is hidden in the facts.
We have just inferred the conclusion from now on. Whether His Highness King Jin believes it or not, there is nothing we can do. Let me tell you something that King Jin does not like to hear. This matter is aimed at King Jin, so what does it have to do with us?
?You don’t believe it. Anyway, I will return to the capital soon to receive the reward. Marquis Du Yu also plans to report to the court and return to the capital to rest for a few days. We can leave, but you, the general, cannot leave. Just take the lead.
The brothers are preparing to fight to the death with the bandits. You can personally verify whether King Huai will send troops to rescue you at the critical moment. Maybe then, King Jin will understand the truth that many things do not require evidence. It is unnecessary.
That’s the evidence.”
Guo Mian was in a daze. Although Lin Jue's sarcasm and questioning were a bit mean and rude, it made the sensitive Guo Mian listen and start thinking about it. The whole matter had actually been solved by Lin Jue with facts.
After connecting them in series, you only need to think for a moment to find the connection and unusual things between them. What's more, Lin Jue had already pointed out these unusual things. Especially what Lin Jue said at the end made Guo
Mian was greatly frightened. Lin Jue was about to return to the capital, and Guo Kun was also going back to the capital. He was left alone here? Didn't he have to die on his own? Once the bandits attacked, how could he command the battle?
"You want to leave? How can you abandon me? Guo Kun, you are the deputy commander-in-chief of the army. I have entrusted you with all the affairs, big and small. How can you just walk away? Since you know there is danger, you still want to abandon me.
?Isn't this just adding insult to injury? Are you so heartless?" Guo Mian spread his hands and shouted at the two of them.
Lin Jue smacked his lips and said: "His Royal Highness, Prince Jin, I can't bear your words. What do you mean by being heartless? Mr. Zhu just went to rest, and the imperial court just issued a decree asking me to return to Beijing immediately to receive the reward. This is not me.
I have to leave, but I have to leave. Didn’t His Highness Prince Jin just now think that I had to stay another night, and wished that I would follow Zhu Zhirong back to the capital immediately? I cannot afford to say such a thing at this time."
Guo Mian blushed and was speechless. He turned to Guo Kun and said, "What about you? The imperial court has not allowed you to return to Beijing. How can you leave behind military affairs?"
Guo Kun sneered and said: "Prince Jin, Prince Jin, haven't you understood yet? Everything was done deliberately by someone, forcing us step by step to a desperate situation. We asked for people but they didn't give them, and we asked for supplies and food.
Damn it, now even Lin Jue, who I rely on most, has to recall the capital at a critical moment. Doesn’t this mean that he wants us to die? I don’t want to die here. Lin Jue is right, this matter is aimed at His Highness the King of Jin.
.Since His Highness doesn’t care, why bother dragging us to die together? I only tell His Highness: With Lin Jue here, we may still be able to fight. Once Lin Jue leaves, no one can cope with the situation in front of us. I can’t, you
Not to mention, who else in the army can have a good idea? We have been set up from the beginning to the end. King Jin, wake up, it’s time to wake up. The noose has been put around your neck, and you don’t know it yet.
What?"
Guo Mian finally woke up completely. No matter how stupid he was, for this reason, he could see the situation clearly. Guo Xu and some people in the court were blocking all his escape routes step by step, leaving him no choice but to
If you are not forced to fight with the bandits, without Lin Jue and Guo Kun, what can you do to fight them? With only a few troops at hand, the bandits may have to gather several times more troops than you. Others can make plans with less
Shengduo, why can I do it on my own?
"This...is he really so bold? He actually wants to use this opportunity to get rid of me? His intentions are so vicious, it's outrageous. No wonder you want to march into Wanting County. I was still a little confused before. Five counties
It's already peaceful, so why go east to Wanting to gather? It seems that both of you have noticed this and have some plans, right?" Guo Mian asked, his face turned pale and he licked his dry lips.
"That's right. We didn't tell the King of Jin about this matter because we didn't have the so-called real evidence from the King of Jin.
The flag of the horse did not inform everyone of the true purpose. But now, we have to clarify this matter with you. They want to recall Lin Jue to the capital. This is my final bottom line. So, I can only tell you
The truth." Guo Kun said solemnly.
Guo Mian frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly took a breath and said: "It is the father who wants to summon Lin Jue back to the capital. Doesn't that mean... the father... he..."
Guo Mian was so frightened that he could not speak, and beads of sweat appeared on his head. He thought that this was his father's connivance to Guo Xu, so he cooperated with Guo Xu's actions. If that was the case, wouldn't it mean that he had been raped by his father?
The emperor hates and gives up. In that case, he can only die. In that case, there is no point in struggling.
"Your Highness King Jin, this matter has nothing to do with the Holy Emperor. Didn't you listen to what Zhu Zhirong said? This matter was Lu Zhongtian's suggestion. The Emperor just didn't know his intention. Lu Zhongtian went to Yingtian Mansion to commend Guo Xu. They must have reached a tacit understanding.
Lu Zhongtian used all his strength in the court, not allowing us to increase our troops, not replenishing our supplies, and recalling me to the capital. These series of actions paved the way for Guo Xu. Did the emperor know their intentions? Don't blame me wrongly.
The Emperor. You are the Emperor's son, how could the Emperor do this? This kind of speculation is absolutely unacceptable." Lin Jue said softly.
Guo Mian stretched out his sleeves to wipe the sweat, nodded repeatedly and said: "That's right, that's right, I'm overthinking it. How could your father do this? Guo Xu and Lu Zhongtian were in cahoots with each other. In order to harm me, they carried out this vicious plan and deceived the emperor.
No, no, I want to expose them, I want to make their conspiracy public, I want to report to my father, and punish them severely. I will never let them succeed. Don’t you think so?"
Guo Mian looked at Lin Jue and Guo Kun excitedly, and suddenly realized that the two men were looking at him as if they were looking at an idiot. He said in surprise: "What? Am I right?"
