Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 328 Shangguan Ce's Justification (continued)

Ye San's face darkened, and he couldn't find anything to refute for a while.

Shangguan Ce was unreasonable, and continued to emphasize: "You said just now that Xiao Hong did not agree to the general's proposal, and this may be the reason why the general took the most wrong step. He agreed to have a discussion with He Hongwei in private. Martial arts contest! Although it is said to be private, it is not as secretive as the previous meeting with Xiao Hong. It looks like a fair martial arts contest based on the rules of the martial arts. But in fact, it is impossible for a general who is familiar with political affairs not to know that He Hongwei, as the royal family of the former dynasty, is also the core figure of the rebellion of the previous dynasty. How much impact the general will have if he meets him at a special moment of turmoil in the court!
What's more, it was rumored that he and He Hongwei had a tie, and the two were chatting and laughing happily... This news reached Chen Xuting's ears. If he was just a little doubtful about the general he had always trusted before, now he is probably only angry! -"

"Master just...just wanted to—" Ye San couldn't help retorting, but he stuttered.

"I just want to blackmail Chen Xuting with this, and want to tell him that if you don't agree to my request for the Northern Expedition, I can still find someone else to cooperate, right?" Shangguan Ce took over Ye San's job, and the more he spoke, the more angry his face became , He put the water glass heavily on the broken wooden table: "If it is said that the general was only obsessed with the Northern Expedition before, then he who dared to do this has gone completely crazy! As a minister of the Great Zhou, You should be loyal to the imperial court and the emperor, how can you offend and threaten the emperor! The general is so domineering and has no eyes on the emperor, it is completely the style of a powerful minister. How can Chen Xuting not suspect that the general has the intention of treason! Fan Yanghou, you too As a well-educated person, you should know how ridiculous the general's actions are, and you were the only one who could stop him at that time, why didn't you stop him!"

Ye San didn't respond, he raised his head, looked at the beams of the pavilion, and said quietly after a while: "Because of this, Chen Xuting conspired with you to murder the master?"

"You must be wondering why the court was so calm after this incident, as if nothing had happened. That's because Chen Xuting kept all the memorials to impeach the general. But since then the general can no longer enter the palace directly. With the general's intelligence, he would not be unaware of the danger, but he did not take any action to improve the relationship with Chen Xuting. Evidence of confrontation?"

Shangguan Ce tapped the wooden table with his hand, and said in a deep voice: "So after you left Kyoto and went to Kunlun, Chen Xuting came to my mansion in disguise to meet me, and the first thing he said when we met was, 'Fu Changbo or my Da Zhou? Is it a subject?" This sentence is heartbreaking, it can be seen that what the general did made Chen Xuting suspicious of the iron-blooded Changhemen!
I was also born in a family of officials and eunuchs, and since I was a child, I have been well aware that the ruler of heaven and earth is the parent and teacher, and the ruler is the guide for the minister. There is nothing wrong with it, but the general is pressing every step of the way—"

Ye San said angrily: "Well, there is nothing wrong with that one! Back then, Chen Xuting held the master's hand personally, and made a public pact as a brother, and promised to hand over all the matters of attacking the northern barbarians to the master, and he will do his best to protect it... Those words turned out to be fucking fart!"

"Time changes and things change, state affairs are difficult, and thousands of threads are far from being understood by people like you and me who only focus on military affairs." Shangguan Ce just made a simple excuse, and then said: "Mr. Chen Xuting Talked to me about my worries about General Ye and Iron-Blooded Changhe Gate, and I assured him again and again that the General and Iron-Blooded Changhe Gate had no intention of rebelling against the imperial court—”

Ye San snorted coldly.

"Then Chen Xuting said that all the officials in the court were excited and strongly requested to revoke Ye Wenbo's appointment as the general of the Peking University. He could no longer hold back and had to approve it. However, he was worried that this move would arouse strong resistance from the general and even lead to civil strife. , leading to the destruction of the excellent situation created by more than ten years of hard work... As far as I know the state of the general at that time, this thing is really possible—"

"Shangguan Ce, how much do you know about your master? Just base your judgment on it!" Ye San pierced Shangguan Ce's eyes like knives, and let out a low growl from his throat: "Just based on this, you are plotting with Chen Xuting. When the master visits the grave again, he will plan to assassinate him!"

Ye San's eyes were shining brightly. As an ordinary person, Shangguan Ce couldn't resist, but he didn't dodge. Instead, he closed his eyes and said, "At that time, I was thinking about the general going to the grave. With his current anxiety, It is very likely that I will sneak into the enemy's territory to go to the grave again, so it is indeed me... who suggested to Chen Xuting to secretly disclose the news to the northern barbarians while the general was going to the grave, so that they could send troops to ambush the general.

In my opinion, the martial arts of the great general are unparalleled in the world, and Ye Zhengbei's martial arts are also very strong. Although the Beiman also recruited some martial arts people, at that time, apart from the Penglai sect, there were no other famous sects to join, and there was no one with very strong martial arts. Good players, no matter how many soldiers there are, it is absolutely difficult to keep the two who returned with all their strength.

However, under the careful preparations of the northern barbarians, it may be difficult for the general to retreat... At that time, Chen Xuting can use the excuse of the general's injury to force him to return to the court to recuperate, thus successfully regaining his military power.And the general can also calm himself down during the healing period and restore his previous wisdom... I made this suggestion at the time, and Chen Xuting readily agreed... But I never imagined that what I was waiting for in the end was—"

Shangguan Ce intentionally paused for a moment, but Ye San did not answer. Shangguan Ce hesitated for a moment, did not open his eyes hastily, and could only continue to say: "When the news of the death of the general and his son came, the iron-blooded Changhemen were shocked. North The barbarians even hung their heads on the top of the Daming Mansion, which angered the general's soldiers. The generals headed by Luo Dahammer clamored to avenge the general and take back their heads for burial...

You should have heard about the situation at that time. Most of the generals were clamoring to avenge the general, especially Li Mingzhe. He was the number one general under the general and had a high prestige among the soldiers. Agitation, I have exhausted my strength for two days, and at this moment Chen Xuting sent someone to give me this handbook—”

As Shangguan Ce said, he took out a well-folded piece of yellowed old paper that was covered with mildew from his pocket, and handed it over.

Ye San took it, opened it, and saw that there were only four words written on the huge piece of paper: follow the trend.

Ye San looked at it carefully, and said coldly: "This is not Chen Xuting's handwriting, and there is no seal."

"Chen Xuting is cautious in doing things, how can he give someone a handle." Shangguan Ce said with a wry smile: "At that time, Cao Zhong gave me this handwriting with his own hands. This handwriting should have been written by Liu Lingying, the imperial concubine at the time and now the empress dowager...

After seeing this letter, I realized that Chen Xuting's restraint and worries before were all a disguise. He played a good game of chess, but at that time I couldn't get rid of it, so I could only let Li Mingzhe and others gather troops to cross the Yellow River and attack the Daming Mansion.At that time, I knew that this battle was bound to be defeated, and I couldn't clear up the guilt of the death of the general and the defeat of the army, so I decided to feign death and survive, but I didn't expect—"

"Didn't you think I would come back early?!" Ye San's tone was as cold as frost: "As you said, if you want others to know, unless you do nothing about it, the private meeting between you and Chen Xuting has already been noticed by Xiao Zhou. She told the master about it, do you know what the master said?——He said, "They are all brothers, don't worry." He trusted you, and he didn't take any measures against you after that, you should be very clear about that. "

Shangguan Ce was a little surprised, he lowered his head and picked up the water glass.

"But Xiao Zhou was a little uneasy after all. Besides her master, she was the most trustworthy person in me, so she left the barracks in the name of vacation, performed lightness kung fu all the way westward, and found me at the Kunlun faction... Unfortunately... Waiting for me to rush back Luoyang, the master is dead, and the news of the army's defeat at the Daming Mansion's city has also come..."

Ye San beat his legs and sighed deeply, with deep regret on his face, and then his tone suddenly turned cold: "I had Xiao Zhou's reminder in advance, and besides, the master was killed by an enemy while going to the grave, it must have something to do with you." Although everyone said that you died in the chaos, how could I believe that a person who was as cunning as a fox and did such evil things in advance would die so easily, not to mention the fact that no one was alive and no corpse was dead , but at the time when Iron Blood Changhe Gate was already in critical condition, I didn't have time to search for you, so I asked Xiao Zhou to sneak into your mansion, took Yi'er away, and sent him to a farmer's house near Chang'an Mansion overnight Feed him for a while, until we left Luoyang and went to Qingluo, then we quietly picked him up...

At that time, I thought, if you really die in battle, we will raise this child well, and if you fake your death and come back to life, although I can't avenge my master for the time being, I can still make you suffer from the separation of your flesh and blood! "

"It's a mistake, I regret it!... These years, I have lived a life that is not like a human being and a ghost. I am suffering every day, and life is worse than death!..." Shangguan Ce's skinny fingers tightly grabbed the pale man. His hair was distorted in pain, and gradually became a little hideous: "All this is the general's fault. If he hadn't insisted on going his own way, things would have never been like this! Everything should be perfect!"

"Shut up!" Ye San glared, like an angry lion: "Shangguan Ce, you can tell how innocent and wronged you are, but you can't change the fact that Master's death was caused by you." The deaths of countless soldiers of the entire Northern Expedition Army and countless brothers of the Jagged Changhe Sect are all because of you!—”
