Tranquility

No matter how Xie Baisheng yelled, struggled, and rolled all over his body in a mess, and finally was crushed to the ground unwillingly, it still couldn't change his mother's tragedy.

Xie Baisheng put his face on the ground, but his eyes widened upwards, but he could only see the haughty neck of the horse and the haughty voice from above.

"My brother Chongzhong, hum, this letter is for you." Chongzhong is the word that King Zhennan personally gave to Xie Baisheng, and Xie Baiyun was relieved because of it.

Xie Baisheng felt his heart skip a beat.

"Brother will start trouble soon, I hope brother will not forget the foreword, choose a day to lead the army to respond, and help brother, brother is very kind, brother will never forget each other, and the future will be rewarding!" Xie Baiyun used his internal strength to recite his words spread to the ears of everyone present.

"Hmph, who is this brother? I didn't write this letter. Brother Sheng, what other brothers do you have? You all watched Brother Sheng grow up. Do you know? What is said in this letter is to lead the army to respond. What is the response, do you know if you know?" After a series of questions, Xie Baiyun unceremoniously asked the faces of the hundred generals.

Of the 100 people, some lowered their heads, some looked at the letter in Xie Baiyun's hand in shock, some stared at Xie Baisheng thoughtfully, and of course some looked at Xie Baiyun warily.

Xie Baiyun swept across everyone's faces, and said to himself: "Everyone should have received the news from Yongzhou. King Zhong rebelled half a month ago and assembled an army of [-]. He has controlled all the states and counties near Yongzhou, and is heading north all the way. It’s pretty close, should we be in the south of the Yangtze River now?”

The world is about to be disrupted, and this matter is no small matter. I am in the center of the situation, and I am facing Yongzhou in the east of Kunnan. How can the king sleep soundly?So it should be here, if my expectation is correct, this letter should be sent by Prince Zhong's son, right?It took so long for the incident to happen, I could hear the news on the road, the imperial court should also respond, is there any report from the imperial court? "

Xie Baiyun didn't say this to anyone specifically, but at this time, a staff member with a clear mind answered, "No, His Royal Highness, to tell you the truth, we haven't received the report from the imperial residence for some days. Wang Dajun went north and cut off the communication of news."

Xie Baiyun's already serious face became even more gloomy and cold, "Stupid, for such a big matter, the neighboring provinces have rebelled, the news is not clear, and the father died at this juncture. From my point of view, Xie Baisheng must have killed his father." Hufu, don't you idiots think anything is wrong? Or do you all want to rebel like Xie Baisheng!"

"You're talking nonsense! I didn't!" Xie Baisheng never expected that Xie Baiyun would slander him so much, and was extremely angry. Unfortunately, Xie Baiyun thought he was noisy and ordered someone to gag him.

Everyone was speechless when questioned. Those soldiers were firmly controlled by the King of Zhennan. Without his tokens, they could not move at all. They were trapped in the camp without any information. Even if they knew, a group of big men would not be able to play politics. That set.

But among the staff, there were keen people who sensed that the situation was not good, but they were not in harmony. The intrigue among the staff was no worse than that of the courtiers. After the death of Zhennan King, no one persuaded them. , or pack up their burdens and go home for the elderly, or support other bastards, and even some young ones plan to go to scientific research.People are scattered, even if there are loyal aides who want to plan one or two for Kunnan, but Xie Baisheng can't support the wall. Those who don't know that Kunnan is on a pirate ship are anxious by the side, and those who know one or two inside things will either put all their eggs in one basket or get out early.

All in all, Kunnan at this time is a mess, Xie Baisheng has no ability to integrate, what Xie Baiyun received is a mess, and he has no time to clean it up.

This question alone stunned everyone. They suddenly realized that Kunnan was in a precarious situation. Under the overturned nest, there would be no eggs. Kunnan followed Yongzhou to rebel. end.What made them even more unbearable was that they were dragged into the pirate ship by Xie Baisheng without knowing it. Xie Baisheng didn't give them a chance to choose at all. Very upset.

"Three generations of the founding of Dazhao, the government has long been stable, the world is peaceful, and it is quite tolerant to my Kunnan family. The weather has been smooth in the past few years, and even this year's catastrophe has not yet reached the point where starvation is everywhere and children are eaten. There are many old generals and newcomers. It is not in accordance with the will of heaven to seek rebellion against the king. The right time, place and people do not take advantage of it. In Kunnan, the family is in Kunnan, if you don't want to be uprooted, you must act decisively and besiege Yongzhou!"

Xie Baiyun rode back and forth on horseback and shouted: "Everyone, there is an abyss behind us, and there is no way to retreat. If you want to save your loved ones and Kunnan, you should stand up and follow this son! Enter Yongzhou!"

Xie Baiyun's words really inspired many people, and his colleagues in Yongzhou responded immediately: "Kill!", "I'm fighting!", "Your Majesty is right!"

Xie Baiyun nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Anyone who sincerely follows this prince, this prince will not treat you badly, if you kill the enemy fifty hundred households, two hundred thousand households, if you can get the head of the loyal king or the loyal king's son, this prince will give you your best wishes." It is just around the corner for the imperial court to show his merits, and he will be granted the title of marquis and worship, and he will be rewarded with 1000 taels of gold from his own pocket, which is absolutely unambiguous in terms of merit and deed."

When Xie Baiyun was talking about this, Wang Qing sent someone to speak out outside the Zhennan Prince's Mansion to encourage the low-level soldiers outside.

"Now, whoever can kill Xie Baisheng to sacrifice the flag, I will immediately reward him with 200 taels of gold, and he will be promoted to three levels in a row."

Hearing these words, the people who had been overwhelmed by Xie Baiyun's great reward felt as if they were being poured with cold water. They immediately cooled down, and everyone who was originally noisy fell silent.

That's Xie Baisheng, the invisible prince who has been domineering in Kunnan for decades, the old Zhennan Wang Jiwei is still there, and everyone is dissatisfied with him, so they only want him as the future master. If it is replaced by an irrelevant person, who It doesn't matter if you can hold it against the wall or not.

Everyone knew that this was the first test Xie Baiyun gave them, it was an opportunity, and it was also a testimonial. If Xie Baisheng was killed, they would be firmly tied to Xie Baiyun's boat.But no one has the courage to take action, even if they don't recognize Xie Baisheng as the master, he is the most beloved son of the old Zhennan King, and he is Xie Baiyun's brother. Speaking of which, this is his family's business. We all know that behind closed doors, my brothers can fight whatever they want, but it's not okay for outsiders to bully my family. Who knows if Xie Baiyun will have a grudge.

At this moment, the boy in plain clothes who had been kneeling calmly stood up, and said to the soldier who was watching him, "Give me a knife."

The soldier glanced at Xie Baiyun, Xie Baiyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the boy, as if he didn't expect him to be the first to stand up, but he still nodded, and the soldier handed the boy his big knife.

The young man was slender, and he didn't need much effort to hold the big knife, which was not much shorter than him. He dragged the big knife, walked firmly to Xie Baisheng step by step, and was waiting to gather his strength to raise the big knife. Finally someone couldn't help it.

"Wait a minute!"

The man stretched out his hand, with a big beard on his face, he couldn't see his face clearly, and even his eyes were blurred, "Does the son want to mutilate his siblings? Even if the second young master is wrong in every way, he is also your real brother. There is nothing wrong with him." Just teach me a lesson, there is no family feud that cannot be resolved."

Xie Baiyun snorted coldly and said, "He Xie Baisheng didn't regard me as his elder brother. Since he was thinking about treason, I don't know if he thought about the Xie family members at all. I suspect that the death of my father is inseparable from him, so why keep him now? Wait for the news to leak out, let the imperial court send troops to destroy us? Do it!"

The bearded man got anxious and shouted, "No way!"

Unexpectedly, before he finished his sentence, someone pierced his chest from behind. He turned his head and saw that the person who killed him was actually his most trusted adjutant, and his eyes widened in disbelief. Said a sentence: "You..." and fell to the ground.

And the signal flare that he had been holding tightly in his hand also rolled out, and the deputy general immediately picked up the signal flare and threw it into the rain puddle next to him.

It happened too fast, and before everyone could react, there were several screams almost at the same time, all of them were attacked by someone, and all the people who were killed were senior generals in the army, and they all had signal flares on their bodies. Someone even opened the fire folder, and almost ignited the signal flare.

Following these screams, the gathered generals immediately dispersed, staring at the people around them vigilantly, while the person who had just sneaked up held a knife dripping with blood, walked out of line expressionlessly and half-kneeled to thank Bai Yun in front of.

One of them said: "His Royal Highness, the rebels are all dead."

Only then did everyone realize that the people who were killed were all generals who supported Xie Baisheng either openly or secretly. Some of the murderers were actually their most trusted subordinates.

This change caused great dissatisfaction among the others, and they were even more panicked, staring vigilantly at the people around them, especially the subordinates they usually trusted, for fear that they would be the next one to be chopped off.

Regardless of their emotions, Xie Baiyun said to himself: "Now, who else wants to speak for Xie Baisheng, Xie Baisheng colluded with the King Zhong, intending to rebel, and the evidence is solid, such rebels, I will kill my relatives righteously, and I will definitely kill you. To protect thousands of people in Kunnan!"

However, no matter what Xie Baiyun said, the assassination just now really stimulated many people. Xie Baiyun's move undoubtedly drove Xie Baisheng's people to a dead end. Xie Baisheng is dead, and they are still doing shit. With Qingshan's plan, this will not help, the only way to ensure that Xie Baisheng survives is to escape first.

Those people are not stupid. They understand that there must be traitors on their side, and there are quite a few. Xie Baiyun has not been in Kunnan for a long time, but he knows all about the factions in the army. The person who just shot has been in the army for more than ten years. Who can doubt them, so they can easily wipe out Xie Baisheng's left and right arms, and these are all chess pieces laid by Xie Baiyun. Xie Baiyun started playing this game of chess more than ten years ago or even earlier, and it is not until today that he is in the city. He is so deep, his methods are vicious, and he is terrifying.

Those who are not so loyal, weighing the situation, immediately knelt down and offered to surrender.

Xie Baiyun didn't talk nonsense, just said: "If you want me to let you go, you have to pay the crime and make meritorious service."

Those people were not stupid, they racked their brains to pour out everything they knew, and even bit each other in the middle, and bit out a lot of people who were Xie Baisheng.

Xie Baiyun said: "Everyone is from my own family, and I'm not that unreasonable. As long as you are willing to follow my son, kill Xie Baisheng, and seek rebels together, I will not hold you accountable, and I will treat you as soldiers of my Zhennan Palace! "

So those who were bitten out, whether they were complaining or surrendering, were relieved.

"Then, it's not too late, so why don't you hurry up!" Xie Baiyun said to the boy.

The boy's eyes were like cold stars, he nodded vigorously to Xie Baiyun with a cold face, and chopped off Xie Baisheng without hesitation.

Xie Baisheng struggled to death, tears streaming down his face, but with a rag stuffed in his mouth, it was too late to beg for mercy.

At this moment, someone suddenly jumped up, threw a dart and bounced off the machete, and at the same time, someone else lit a signal flare, and there was an explosion in the dark sky, and Xie Baiyun's face changed accordingly.The signal flare is a secret signal that Xie Baisheng and his family have agreed upon. As long as he thinks about it, their soldiers will rush in. He thought that the signal flare had already been found, but he didn't expect that there were still fish that slipped through the net. He deserves to be in the military for decades. , even if it is an idiot, it can't be underestimated.

The soldiers outside immediately mutinied, and the situation was out of control at this time. The violent man had already jumped in front of the young man, and was about to grab the knife to save him. Who would have thought that the weak and thin young man was actually quite strong, and he seemed to have practiced After a few moments, he actually passed several tricks with the violent person.With just a few moves, it was enough time for the princess guard next to him to react and throw Xie Baisheng to block the approaching people.

Xie Baisheng was out of restraint, and he got up rolling and crawling, the will to survive inspired his full potential, he didn't care about it, and ran towards the respondent with both legs.

Xie Baiyun frowned slightly, reached out to take the arrow on Wang Qing's back, pulled it away, and aimed.

He never thought that in the chaos, the boy in plain clothes stood between him and Xie Baisheng, and he was not slow, he caught up with him in three or two steps, swung his machete and slashed at Xie Baisheng, and with a scream, Xie Baisheng's head fell to the ground.

When Xie Baisheng's loyalists saw that their master was dead, they were so stimulated that they went crazy, and without any scruples, they slashed towards Xie Baiyun.

Xie Baiyun didn't care about that at all, just stared at the young man, watching him pick up Xie Baisheng's head, without any expression of fear or excitement on his face, just walking towards Xie Baiyun in a daze.Those people who lost their master saw that he had hacked Xie Baisheng to death and went mad to seek revenge on him, but he didn't care. Fortunately, the soldiers next to him stopped him and let him get under Xie Baiyun's horse with all his beard and tail.

"I killed Xie Baisheng." He said to Xie Baiyun.

"You are very good, thank you." Xie Baiyun praised.

"I don't want money, and I don't want to be an official, I just want his head."

Xie Baiyun was not surprised, and said with affirmative tone: "You are the twelfth man, the twelfth younger brother of this son."

Xie Baiyun knew about this younger brother because of his mother.Originally, his mother was not favored, and Twelve Lang didn't even have a name. The mother and son were transparent people in the Zhennan Palace. Even though life was very difficult, life was stable.Unexpectedly, Xie Baisheng met Shi Shilang's mother by chance, and raped his mother while drinking. After Xie Baisheng's biological mother found out about this, she gave his mother a glass of poisoned wine as a matter of course.

At that time, Twelve Lang was still young, and Xie Baisheng's biological mother did not dare to blatantly kill Zhennan King's heir, thinking that Twelve Lang was still young and didn't know anything, but unexpectedly, Twelve Lang watched everything, but he pretended to know everything. I don't know, I endured it silently.

After Xie Baiyun found out, he ordered someone to take care of him, and even taught him some basic skills. At that time, he just wanted to see where this young man would go. He didn't expect this young man to give him such a huge shock today.

"As long as you help me wipe out the rest of the party, I will allow you to take his body away." Xie Baiyun didn't have time to talk to him now, so he dropped these words and took the lead, beheading the person who rushed over.

"Generals, your chance to make meritorious service has come. If you fight against the outside world, you must first secure the inside. Take your soldiers and follow this son, kill!"

Soon, the entire Zhennan Prince's Mansion was full of killing sounds and blood flowed like rivers, which kicked off the prelude for Xie Baiyun to lead Kunnan.
