Under this situation, the situation will surely be stabilized soon, and the scattered people's hearts will be reunited again. The Wu family will still be the same iron-barrel Wu family. How can they be shaken by them alone?
There is no need to fight this battle anymore, it is already destined to be defeated!
In this case, is it necessary to continue flapping?
Everyone saw the situation very clearly, and some even knelt down and begged for mercy and admitted their mistakes, claiming that they did not know that the master of the family was still alive, and that everything was deceived by the second master.
What is even more daring to say is that Dao was threatened.
The better people have even taken the initiative to help the soldiers seize the arms of their companions: "Don't even think about running away!"
The companions who were being held captive were dumbfounded: "...?!"
He didn't want to run away either!
How dare you do this?
Was it because he was slow to react and didn’t have time to get on the boat?!
Under this situation, Gao Yin's men hardly spent a single soldier, and the situation was quickly brought under control.
But Wu Jingling knew very well that the defeat in front of him was only a small part.
Since the father appears here, it means that everything is a game...
Then, everything he has done and everything he has painstakingly deployed is within this game!
Just like the chess pieces on the chessboard, they think they can turn the clouds and make rain, kill all directions, and conquer the city... but in fact, they are all under the control of the chess player.
Such chess pieces will never be able to fight back when the chess player ends the game.
At this moment, he didn't know whether to feel resentful or laugh at himself.
Thousands of emotions were surging inside, and he was just standing there in a daze at this moment, watching and listening to all this, feeling all the situations reversed, just in an instant.
However, in a short period of time, all the so-called general trends created by illusions had completely left him.
"……grandfather!"
Accompanied by several soldiers, a boy's figure flew out of the courtyard.
"Father!" The boy rushed to Wu Jingming and hugged his father.
"Okay, it's okay." Wu Jingming patted the boy's back and comforted him: "Father is back, don't be afraid."
Wu Ran wiped away his tears, looked at the young man aside, grinned like he was crying and said with a smile: "Second brother! I knew it would be fine with you here!"
Wu Chao smiled and patted his head, with a look of approval in his eyes.
Little A Zhang has also grown up.
But looking at the boy's tears streaming down his face, he added to his mind with a little disgust - it would be better if he didn't cry so much, and he had to learn from Mingshi.
"By the way, where is mother?" The boy looked around.
Wu Jingming said: "Don't worry, your mother went to your grandmother's place."
Wu Ran was completely relieved.
Great, my mother is fine, and everyone is fine.
Thinking of this, the boy turned around, glanced at Wu Jinling, who seemed to have not reacted yet, and was still standing in the same place, and asked in a low voice: "Second brother...is the incident at Long Qishan really done by my second uncle?"
He would rather believe that there was no assassination at all and that it was all set up by his grandfather from beginning to end, rather than half-truths and half-truths, and that his second uncle really committed such an unforgivable mistake.
Wu Chao did not answer his words for the time being, but looked at Wu Jinling.
"Second uncle——"
Hearing the boy's familiar shout, which he thought he would never hear again in this life, Wu Jinling raised his eyes and looked over in a daze.
The uncle and nephew met each other's eyes, and the young man said calmly: "Let's talk."
King Dingnan, who had not said a word since his appearance, glanced at his second son and stepped forward.
Wu Jingming, Wu Chao, and Wu Ran followed him into Songqingyuan.
Wu Jingling stood for a moment longer, until he slowly exhaled a shaky breath from his chest, then moved his steps with difficulty, turned around and slowly followed in.
Mr. Zhen also wanted to follow, but was held back by Manager Yin——
Mr. Zhen glared at Manager Yin, but in the end he turned around and walked away.
Anyway, to put it mildly, these are the prince's family affairs.
Over the years, he may have asked too many questions...
Flashing before his eyes was the boy's young face from many years ago, with a pair of eyes showing dissatisfaction even when he was being trained and punished. Mr. Zhen's heart was hard to distinguish.
After all these years, he still remembers those eyes.
It was true that he had been wrong all these years to believe that a child with such eyes would actually change his temper after just kneeling for a night...
Compared with the straightforward rebuttal with a dissatisfied face at first, it is the most dangerous thing for that child to hide all his thoughts in his heart and only show others with false appearances...
Perhaps it was because he overcorrected in the first place...did it backfire?
Mr. Zhen's feet sank slightly. For what happened today, more than one person is responsible.
This lesson must be learned seriously.
Afterwards, we should have a good talk with the prince...
King Dingnan and his party entered Songqingyuan. After a few followers followed them in, the door of Songqingyuan was closed from the outside.
Looking at the handsome man guarding the courtyard gate, Manager Yin found it particularly strange. Although this man looked like a man and a woman, he had a murderous demeanor around him, so he must not be an ordinary person——
And because he came back with the prince, he had the merit of protecting the Lord. As a steward, he naturally had to ask: "I wonder what your surname is? Which camp are you from?"
He looks like a military man.
The other party looked straight at him and said, "Xu Jiajun, Yun Liu."
Manager Yin was greatly surprised when he heard this.
Xu Jiajun?
A man who is the ruler of the country!
The Duke of Zhenguo actually sent someone to escort the prince?
The prince actually accepted it!
This... you really can see all kinds of rare things if you live long enough.
Over the years, the two families have become accustomed to cold faces from top to bottom. When we met in the past, we would invisiblely compete with each other to see whose face was colder. If you were like someone who had the coldest face, I would be like someone who just walked through the snow.
Fished out of the ice cellar——
But now that he was looking at the opponent without even looking at him, the contest seemed to have been set up, and Manager Yin didn't know whether he should accept the move or not...
After all, he is a guest.
And he was escorting the prince back.
Thinking like this, Manager Yin smiled very generously, with a smile that seemed to erase all grudges, and saluted: "It turns out he is the garrison master under General Xu. It's really disrespectful."
Yun Liuyin adhered to what his general secretly confessed before leaving, "I will hold my ground when I get to the Wu family, but I can't let those people take it lightly." He only nodded slightly and didn't say much - the general's
Explain...how to put it, although he understood the meaning, he always felt as if he was worried that the newly married bride would be bullied and looked down upon by her husband's family if she was too weak...
Manager Yin asked him again if he was tired or if he needed to take a rest.
With that said, he asked someone to prepare the guest room.
Feeling the enthusiasm of her husband's family, the bride Yunliu always remained reserved and aloof, maintaining a noble attitude.
In the study, Wu Jingming helped King Dingnan sit down in the chair.
Under his palm, he could notice that the old man's arms were too thin.
These days, although everything is still under control, they have never really been in danger since they left Ningyang and separated into real and fake armies... but their father is still ill.
It was the night when the news of the accident in Longqishan came.
That was also the night when father and A Yuan's suspicions were truly confirmed.
Thinking of the news he had received in recent days, Wu Jingming looked at Wu Jingling standing there and asked, "Don't you have anything to say, second brother?"
Even at this moment, he still couldn't imagine that the person who wanted to kill him, his father, and A Yuan would actually be his second brother who grew up with him and talked about everything...
The same knife penetrates the flesh and blood. Whether the person holding the knife is a bystander or a family member, the lethality is completely different and cannot be compared.
"Brother, what do you want to hear from me?" Wu Jinling's shoulders drooped, as if he didn't care about anything, and his tone was very scornful: "Do you kowtow to your father and admit your mistakes and beg for mercy? If I say that I have made a mistake and regretted it, do you dare to believe it?
?”
"If it's true, why don't you believe it?" The young man standing beside the old man looked at him: "Remorse may not be useful, but everyone has the right to regret."
"Regret..." Wu Jingling smiled: "I cheated even if I cheated, killed even if I killed, lost even if I lost... The truth is already in front of you, so why bother with falsehoods."
As he spoke, he looked at the jade-like young man and asked: "I was told in a secret letter that in order to avoid the court's eyes and ears, I chose another route back to Ningyang... This situation must be A Yuan's idea, right? It turns out that
A Yuan has already suspected the second uncle."
"Yes." Wu Chao looked at him and said: "Second uncle has been patiently hiding this for many years, but this time he is still too impatient - second uncle has clearly noticed the possibility of setting up a trap, but still takes the risk to get involved.
Is it a matter of luck?"
After the news about the fake death spread, the second uncle was still secretly investigating their whereabouts, which showed that he had doubts about the authenticity of the corpses.
And they immediately changed the guards outside the city, thinking that even if they were alive, they would never be allowed to enter the city alive, and wanted to turn the lie into the truth.
But these are all afterthoughts.
What the second uncle didn't know was that what was stated in the secret letter sent back to Ningyang was that not only was the journey back to the city false, but the person returning to the city was also false, and even the time of return to the city was also false.
Long before the Longqishan Incident, they had already entered Ningyang City.
He suddenly raised his hand and pointed at King Dingnan: "I shouldn't have let my father go to the capital. After walking around in the capital, my father suddenly changed his mind! He agreed to the proposal of King Yan and Xu Jiajun!"
He caught his father's mentality of being too concerned about the rise and fall of the Wu family and wanting to achieve things at the minimum cost, so that his father made up his mind to stand up after the chaos. He also made all the follow-up preparations for this, but because of this, his father
Entering Beijing, all his plans were disrupted!
My sister, brother and sister-in-law openly defected from Beijing. The Wu family can no longer stay afloat!
If this continues, everything will be out of his control, and in order to cut off all ties between the Wu family and King Yan, he can only make this move!
After many attempts to persuade him failed, in order to cut off his father's determination to support King Yan to succeed, he tried to do this once, but unfortunately he failed that time...
This time on the way back to Ningyang, it was his only chance to completely eliminate his father and A Yuan!
He had no choice, so how could he not be impatient?
A Yuan is right, he is just gambling——
It's a pity that God never cares for him, even once!
"So, if I change my mind, it is equivalent to messing up your plan." King Dingnan looked at his second son and finally said: "You have long advised me to be wise and protect myself, and do not want the Wu family to participate in the emperor's struggle. See what I want
Having decided, he instead persuaded me to stand on the outside and wait until
It's not too late to take action to bring the world into chaos - in your private heart, you actually don't want me to help King Yan gain power too early. You don't want the emperor to win, nor do you want King Yan to win. You want everyone to fight and the world to be in chaos...and
Until then, the strength that the Wu family has preserved will be the knife in your hand."
He had always thought that his second son was a casual person, and those who were greedy for the mortal world were often greedy for life. People who were greedy for life advised him to be cautious, but he never noticed anything wrong——
Now it seems that he is blind and has not seen the truth clearly!
"Father finally understood, yes, that's exactly what happened. This country was snatched by the Xie family during the chaos. Moreover, they were immoral and incompetent, and they were unable to govern the country well. As a result, the people all over the world were in dire straits. Everything they heard was lamentation, and everything they saw was...
It's unfair! Shouldn't I do this?" Wu Jinling's eyes were full of unwillingness.
Looking at the complete stranger, Wu Jingming slowly shook his head.
The Wu family's secret actions to fuel the flames were left in the hands of the second brother by his father, but was the second brother really just fueling the flames?
"It is the current emperor who is at fault, not the entire Xie family!" He looked at Wu Jinling and said: "Second brother, if you really care about the people of the world, you should know that supporting King Yan is the best choice - and
You clearly know A Yuan’s true identity. You have watched A Yuan grow up. If you know his moral character and ability, why do you have to be so paranoid? "
He didn't even understand where his second brother's resentment towards the entire Xie family came from.
"No, you are all the same. King Yan is the same, and so is A Yuan!" Wu Jinling's eyes were full of sarcasm: "A Yuan... he has been aloof since he was a child, so what if he is righteous and good? He has never experienced it, so how can he know
What is unfair? Only I, only I can help all people in the world to escape from the sea of suffering, and only I can truly do things to rectify the injustice in the world!"
Wu Chao looked at the man who was gradually showing an extreme expression and said: "So, what the second uncle wanted from the beginning was not the position of head of the Wu family -"
The Wu family has always hidden a person who has the ambition to "rectify injustice" and wants to conquer the world.
"Of course, I don't even bother to ask for what my father refuses to give." Wu Jinling's eyes fell on King Dingnan: "I have what I deserve, and this world should be mine... What do you think, father?
?”
Wu Yu's eyebrows moved slightly - should it?
King Dingnan clenched his fingers silently and looked at him: "What on earth are you talking about-"
"Nonsense?" Wu Jingling laughed: "Father wants to ask when I learned about it, right?"
"Let me think about it... It was around the time when I was eleven years old, right? Or twelve years old?" He put his hands behind his back, raised his chin slightly, and looked thoughtful, recalling the old things seriously: "
It happened more than 20 years ago... At that time, Daqing was not yet established and the world was still in turmoil. I once accompanied my brother to give porridge outside Ningyang City and led people to resettle the refugees from the south..."
