The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 736

In Yuanpinghou's Mansion, the two headed family members sat in the study, looking very dignified.

"Who would have thought, who would have thought... the situation is so bad!" Xue Jingyan beat his chest and stamped his feet.

The Yong army won the battle of Jishui, and now the army has besieged the capital, and the situation of the court has deteriorated to the extreme.

From the perspective of the general trend, the fall of the capital is doomed, and the current imperial court is bound to be overthrown.

But the closer it is to this kind of juncture, the more dangerous their Xue family will be.

The Lin family and the Huang family were all imprisoned, and their Xue family, as the real Yue family of the rebels, could be used by the emperor to vent their anger almost at any time, even if they had broken with King Yong.

Xue Jingyu replied: "Yong's army is approaching the city, and there are more and more of them. The court can't last long!"

These are actually nonsense. The most important issue at the moment is how to protect the family.

I only heard Xue Jingyan say: "Second brother, you take the children of the clan, and then call all the family and servants, all go to the city wall to defend the city!"

"Brother, the imperial court is bound to be defeated, and we still want to be an enemy of King Yong?"

Xue Jingyan said angrily: "But the imperial court has not been defeated yet, it can crush our family at any time!"

"Go!"

At this moment, although Xue Jingyu felt that it was not appropriate, but under the threat of his elder brother, he could only carry out the order at this moment.

In fact, before leaving, Xue Jingyu really wanted to ask what his elder brother was doing.

After all, it is more appropriate for the Patriarch to do things like show his face!
But when he saw Xue Jingyan's extremely ugly face, Xue Jingyu could only hold back his words and act according to his elder brother's wishes.

Xue Jingyu didn't know that when he turned to leave, Xue Jingyan's eyes looking at his back had become extraordinarily cold.

"Second brother, the family wants to survive, and I want to live too, so I can only wrong you!" Xue Jingyan murmured.

In order for the family to survive, even at the last moment, the Xue family still had to cheer for the little emperor.

But seeing that the imperial court was about to collapse, and King Yong was about to add a dragon robe, Xue Jingyan had to think about the long-term.

So his idea is to extract himself from the matter of "surrendering" to the court, and let Xue Jingyu act as a facade at this last moment.

In this way, the Xue family can not only deal with the current little emperor, but also let Xue Jingyu take the blame for this matter after the change of dynasty.

As long as Xue Jingyan insisted that it was Xue Jingyu's idea to betray King Yong, Xue Jingyan thought it would not be a big problem to protect the family because his daughter was the concubine.

At that time, if Xue Jingyu is pushed out to take the blame, King Yong's anger will be appeased and the world will be given an explanation.

Xue's family is thinking long-term for survival, but Lin Guanhai is worried about the imperial court's defeat in the big prison of the supervisor.

At this moment, he was sitting in the cell, staring at the blue sky and white clouds outside through the small window on the wall.

At this moment, how much he hopes that he can get out of the prison and contribute his strength to defend the city.

Seeing that Lin Guanhai had been in a daze for nearly an hour, Huang Wanan couldn't help getting up from the bed, sighed and said, "Brother Lin, the number of days has changed, and the artifacts are easier, this is a natural reason!"

The Yong army had arrived at the capital, and they had already learned about it from the prison guards.

The imperial court's defeat was so fast that people were caught off guard, and it also changed the mood of the two people in the cell greatly.

Hearing Huang Wanan's words, Lin Guanhai woke up from his trance.

After staring at Huang Wan'an for a while, Lin Guanhai said, "Brother Huang is speaking for the rebels!"

"Brother Lin, I'm not speaking for the rebels. The winners and losers have always been the winners and losers. This is the truth known to everyone in the world!"

"So Brother Huang thinks that what the world knows is right?"

"Isn't it right?" Huang Wanan asked back.

I wanted to continue the debate, but Lin Guanhai also knew that the most difficult thing to change is people's thinking.

He smiled wryly and said: "It's hard for you to read the words of sages and sages, but you are the same as those mediocre people from the background of a second-class Jinshi!"

"You and I are just mortals!" Huang Wanan replied.

The two remained silent, and it was pointless to continue arguing and arguing, because they knew they couldn't convince each other.

In a certain square in the city, a small official stood on a high place, announcing the government's order aloud.

After reading the official document, the little official put away the document, and then shouted: "The rebels kill innocent people indiscriminately, rape and plunder all kinds of crimes. If you don't want your family members to be killed and your property to be taken away, you must obey the emperor's will. Go out and defend the city!"

"The emperor said that as long as he defeats the bandit army this time, there will be a big reward!"

"For military exploits, the small ones will be rewarded with silver and land, and the big ones will be promoted to ranks!"

"I can tell you that a great future is ahead, don't miss it!"

The cake was beautifully painted, but no one responded at the scene. The quiet environment made this little official look like a clown.

"Have you heard? Go back to prepare today, and the government will come to clean up the people tomorrow morning. If anyone doesn't obey the emperor's order, they will be severely punished!"

After saying these words, the petty official left with his servants, leaving a crowd of common people looking at each other in blank dismay.

Although the little official said it nicely, but these people at the scene are not fools, they know that the so-called military merits are not so good.

But they have no choice, even if they don't want to make meritorious service, they will be forcibly driven to the city wall by the government.

In a certain study room, ten luxuriously dressed men were looking sad at the moment.

"Yong's army is approaching the city, do you think the city can be defended?"

"There are 1 guards on the left and right guards, and there are 3 soldiers from the Guards Army and City Patrol Division. With only [-] soldiers, it may be difficult to defend the city!"

In the two wars of Hanshui and Jishui, the imperial court lost hundreds of thousands of troops. These 3 people are really insignificant.

So the answer is already obvious, even if the imperial court has recruited young men in the city, it will not change the general situation.

Being able to judge the situation clearly, there is no doubt that these people are officials, so they can know the affairs of the DPRK and China.

After a few breaths of silence in the room, someone said: "Everyone, the current situation has changed dramatically and chaos is approaching. I have to wait and make plans early!"

These officials, their wives and children are all in the capital. If they don't take "countermeasures" early, they may end up with ruined families.

At this time, a person from the east said: "King Yong raised his troops, and the famous saying is to punish the rebels, and Jingguo is in trouble!"

"As long as I'm not a so-called traitor, what is there to worry about?"

Seeing that everyone was looking over, Chen Ji'an went on to say: "I don't need to tell you, all the adults understand that the rebels are the cabinet ministers, and only the six ministers have a role!"

Of course, the head of the rebels is the current emperor, and Chen Ji'an tactfully didn't mention it.

"The imperial court always needs people to govern. We people are useful to King Yong. As long as we are willing to abandon the dark and turn to the bright, we may be able to make it to the top!"

When Chen Ji'an finished speaking, someone answered immediately: "Brother Chen is worthy of being the number one scholar handpicked by the late emperor. He really has deep knowledge and insight, and he can analyze the current situation so thoroughly!"

Chen Ji'an was the champion of Tai'an for 22 years, but he has not been reused.

In fact, these people in the room have almost the same experience, and there is no hope of getting ahead in the current imperial court.

Then someone said: "In this way, the calamity of the court is our blessing!"

"I don't dare to think about making it to the sky, I only hope that the whole family will be safe!"

"Yes!"

When everyone expressed their attitude, someone asked: "Then, what should we do?"

All eyes were on Chen Ji'an at this moment.

Chen Ji'an enjoyed this moment very much. For him, as long as he can lead this group of people and help build momentum when King Yong enters the city, he will definitely be reused.

I saw Chen Ji'an calmly said: "Everyone, don't panic, this matter needs a long-term plan!"

To be honest, these people are really courageous, and dare to gather a crowd to talk about such a "big rebellion".

Once the news leaked out, under Zhao Weilong's wrath, they would surely die without a whole body.
