Chapter 96

According to the Northwest Military News, the Duke of Xiangguo proclaimed himself the King of Xiang, which was reversed.

Although Wan Liangao had only [-] soldiers under his command, he borrowed [-] troops from Chi Hu at this moment, and turned to attack Daliang eastward.When the military newspaper left from the northwest, Wan Liangao's Xiang army had captured a city in Liaozhou.

The Hall of Wenying was in chaos, and the soldiers who came to convey the military information had already been driven out.Emperor Yuan Hui was so anxious that he slumped on a chair with exhaustion. His servants had already gone to invite the imperial physician, and the rest of them held their breaths while waiting.Wu Neishi supported Emperor Yuan Hui, but his eyes glanced at the calm General Ji, trying to wink to make people leave quickly, but he couldn't find a chance.

General Ji didn't seem to care about anything, and he didn't fear the wrath of the emperor, so he just stood in the middle of the Wenying Hall.

Ji Bieyun was actually waiting for Emperor Yuan Hui to speak to him.

But the emperor was so frightened that half of his souls were scattered. He took the time to think about it, and he still underestimated the extent of Wan Liangao's brutality.For the sake of the throne and to usurp power, this person was able to collude with foreigners and borrow troops to attack Daliang.

To be able to borrow [-] troops from Chihu must have been negotiated with Chihu on a certain condition.After much deliberation, it is most likely that Wan Liangao promised to the other party that if he takes over the imperial city, he will cut off part of the land in Daliang and hand it over to Chi Hu, but Ji Bieyun does not yet know that this part of the land is one or two city, or five or six cities.But the quantity is not important anymore, what is important is that Wan Liangao, a bastard, actually betrayed his country for glory.

Chi Hu has been nomadic on the grassland for hundreds of thousands of years, and the wildness in his bones is hard to get rid of.When the Central Plains was in turmoil, the Chihu people took the opportunity to go south to burn, kill, and loot. They thought that the Central Plains people were not worthy of staying on the same land as them, but they were greedy for the richness of the Central Plains.Everywhere they went became empty cities and no man's land, and even the plowed fields were destroyed.

Wan Liangao is taking the lives of the people to realize his ambition.

The emperor finally said: "You are a low-ranking person... who has won the honor of my Ming family and won the title of my Ming family, but in the end wants to take away the power of my Ming family."

Ji Bieyun looked up and saw Emperor Yuan Hui's chest heaving violently, as if he was dying.

"I shouldn't have...sent this person to the northwest, I should have chopped off the dog's head in the Dunhua Palace..." Emperor Yuan Hui's eyeballs seemed to be spinning uncontrollably, and suddenly Seeing him, he paused, "Ji Yao...don't you hate Yushitai and Duan Wenfu? You can't get used to Wan Liangao's bastard, right? I'll give you a chance to kill him. Let Tang Pan or Shi Rui be your lieutenants, and you go and kill him together."

He stood still, "I have never been on the battlefield, and I have no experience. Your Majesty may have misjudged someone."

"Ji Yao! When is it time, are you still flirting with me!" Emperor Yuan Hui yelled angrily, pointing at him, "The situation is urgent, if we don't send troops now to stop the chaos, I'm afraid more people will follow Wan Liang's example and raise troops Rebellion, even defecting to him! As General Daliang, how can you stay out of it, do you have any shame?"

"Of course I don't dare to stay out of it." He said calmly, "It's just why does your majesty believe that I won't take refuge in Duke Xiang?"

Emperor Yuan Hui didn't answer immediately, but struggled to straighten up, stood up with the support of Wu's servant, and walked to him slowly.

"Even if all the generals rebel, you won't." Emperor Yuan Hui's voice sounded dark and sad, "Don't you hate evil as much as you love the people like a son? Have the heart to see the people of Daliang die under the sword of Duke Xiang?"

Ji Bieyun's weakness is too obvious, as long as he is a person who is not bound by moral conscience, he can use this to blackmail him.

But he didn't show timidity in front of Emperor Yuanhui, instead he smiled: "I am willing to help the Liang's stability, but I have another wish that I want to realize, so I will give up everything for this, and I hope His Majesty will make it come true."

"Abandon everything?" Emperor Yuan Hui laughed, shaking his figure.

At this moment, a servant led the imperial physician into the Hall of Wenying, and was about to speak when Emperor Yuan Hui scolded him, "Get lost".

The emperor was furious at the imperial doctor as if he had lost his mind: "Get out! I don't need you quack doctors to diagnose and treat me, so get out!"

When the imperial physician almost bowed his head to the ground and withdrew, Emperor Yuan Hui turned his head to look at Ji Bieyun, and said ruthlessly, "You think I don't know?"

He raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Yuan Hui, those eyes were bloodshot, and in an instant, he seemed to have guessed what the other party would say.

"Why don't I know what you are for?" Emperor Yuan Hui held back his anger, "Isn't he the son of the captain of Lingzhou? The only one who survived from Shugu City is a child of the Liu family."

Ji Bieyun had already expected the result, but he remained calm, looking straight at the other party.All the pretense of etiquette and status disappeared, and he looked like a madman at the entrance of the village.

"I am the emperor of Daliang. Is there any king in the world? You can't hide it from me. It's just that your true identity is too insignificant to Daliang and to me. A son of a captain?" Emperor Yuan Hui sneered With a voice, "If you hadn't shown up at the Dengque meeting, I wouldn't have looked at you at all. What do you want in Chenjing? Justice? Fairness? Innocence?"

The emperor seemed to have heard a big joke, and stared at him as the emperor, as if he was looking at an earthworm on the side of the road.

Ji Bieyun covered the fluctuations in his eyes, and smiled softly, "Does Your Majesty not care about these things? Does Your Majesty not care about justice and fairness in the world, and the innocence of everyone in the world?"

Seeing that Emperor Yuan Hui couldn't answer for a while, he continued: "But I care. Even if I'm just the son of a criminal, a person who can be wiped out by the powerful at any time, I still feel that the justice of the world is tied to everyone, no matter whether it is Tian Huang The nobles are still traffickers. The joys and worries of the people are not just a few general records in the history books. The joy, anger, sorrow and joy of each of them is the foundation of the beam. If it is not upside down, black and white are confused, and the ruler is the minister Everyone is responsible."

He said something, but the emperor still looked at him like that, opened his mouth and almost couldn't make a sound.

After a while, he said: "You think you are more suitable to be the emperor than me, don't you?"

"Not everyone desires power, Your Majesty." Ji Bieyun's tone was neither sad nor happy, but firm, "I also think that I am just an ordinary person, and I am not qualified to do anything for Daliang. I only want to do one thing when I come to Chenjing." Matter—rehabilitating the Liu family. Since His Majesty did not take this minister seriously, it is naturally just a trivial matter to order the Liu family case to be reopened."

Before he came to Chenjing, he really had only this purpose, but later he was pushed to his current position by accident, and those responsibilities must be borne by him.Killed Wan Liangao?Of course, he can't wait to take the life of that dog thief now, but there is still a negotiation between him and Emperor Yuan Hui.

Ji Bieyun was a little emotional, it turned out that this was the feeling of tearing face off with the emperor.

The Son of Heaven that he had been afraid of since he could remember was only a title, an official title that would be taken over by someone who came later.The person in front of him is just an ordinary person, with ordinary human emotions, but has more power than ordinary people.

Ji Bieyun only had peace and tranquility in his heart.He knew that Emperor Yuanhui was worried about many things, such as the betrayal of his courtiers, the pen of the historian, and the seemingly stable Jiangshan Sheji that would not belong to the Ming family forever.Therefore, he also understood that with the deep suspicion of Emperor Yuanhui, he would inevitably agree to his conditions.

"Your Majesty asked the ministers to go, and he also wanted the veteran generals with great military exploits to be the minister's lieutenants. Didn't he just want the ministers to suppress them so that they would not betray His Majesty?" He looked at the shaken emperor and made up his mind with words, " Who else can His Majesty rest assured? Duke Xiangguo was almost invincible when he followed the late emperor, and he was quite prestigious among generals, who else would have no intention of relying on him like this minister?"

After hearing this, Emperor Yuanhui turned around and walked behind the table holding Wu's servant's arm, but his back was much tired.

"It's ridiculous..." Yuan Huidi murmured in a low voice, "I have only been on the throne for half a year, and I have not made any serious mistakes. In the hearts of all officials, I am no more than an old minister who wields power."

In the end, the emperor didn't sit down, but kept silent for a long time with his back to Ji Bieyun.

It was so long that Ji Bieyun's body was standing stiff, and the air in the hall was almost stagnant. Only then did Emperor Yuanhui say in a deep voice, "I promise you."

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and chased after the victory: "I hope that before I leave Beijing, Your Majesty can decree to reopen the case of the Liu family, but please discuss the specific matters of redress after I return."

"Are you afraid that I will close the case at will and fool you?" The emperor laughed at himself.

He replied with silence.

Emperor Yuan Hui waved his back to him, and said wearily: "Let's go, go, go back and wait for the imperial edict."

Ji Bieyun took one last look at the other person's figure, and felt pity in his heart for only a moment, then turned and left.However, he was stopped after taking two steps. He looked back, and Emperor Yuan Hui also turned to look at him.

"I heard that the late emperor mentioned Liu Hongji, saying that he is a rare general who can keep the border peaceful for decades... I hope that his son will be like his father, and he will never let him down."

Ji Bieyun bowed his head and saluted, "I must do my best."
