Chapter 312 The Great Victory
Hearing Murong Li's words, there was a flash of sadness in the deputy general's eyes, but he quickly covered it up, and only lowered his head and said respectfully: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this subordinate will give orders."

Murong Li's mind was full of thoughts on how to win more favorable conditions for her in the upcoming negotiations, so she didn't notice the strangeness of her subordinates, so she just said indifferently: "Go down."

"Yes, this subordinate will leave." The lieutenant bowed his hands respectfully and exited the door.

The lieutenant, who was not in front of Murong Li and didn't need to deliberately control his expression, looked even more solemn, and this seriousness lasted until he returned to his room. As soon as he entered the room, the two muscular men who had been waiting there in advance stood up hastily, "General Wang, what's the matter?"

Looking carefully, the distressed expressions on the faces of these two people were even worse than that of Lieutenant General Wang. It wasn't that they were afraid to stand in front of the battle, but that they knew very well that the situation in the army was very bad these days.

'Very bad' is a more polite way of saying it. If it is true, it would be 'very bad'. In the past half month, although Murong Li tried his best to suppress and even publicly executed several soldiers who tried to escape, such a thunderstorm For example, although it played the role of killing chickens and monkeys in a short period of time, and also curbed the spread of bad speech in the army, but these are all superficial phenomena. In fact, people's hearts are freezing like the weather in the twelfth lunar month.

Leng Yuanxun had already planted many cronies in Murong Li's army, and the reason why he has been standing still is to wait for a suitable opportunity, a time when grievances are deepening and people's hearts are against him.

Today, apparently.

Based on the information they have acquired over the past few days, in the name of Leng Yuanxun, they quickly brought under their command those soldiers and officers who were most dissatisfied with Murong Li. He didn't hesitate to take the risk, even the people close to Murong Li had their ideas.

In fact, it’s not a risk. Most people are always closely linked by the word “profit”. Sometimes it’s not so much loyalty as it is determined by the fate of “all prosperity, one loss”. Right now Murong Li is trapped in the situation, so it is inevitable that he cannot see the situation clearly. However, the bystanders around him are very clear that the possibility of Leng Yuanxun accepting the condition of planning the river to govern is almost very slim, not to mention that they are originally from the north. Not to mention that family members are being coerced in the capital, even they themselves don't want to leave their hometown to adapt to the hot and humid environment in the south of the Yangtze River. The reason why they follow Murong Li closely is that there is no way out. The order told them that as long as they are willing to rein in the precipice, they will never pursue the past, let alone implicate their family members. The balance of "going all out" in their hearts will naturally slowly tip.

After all, no one's life is as important as your own. Instead of losing your life in vain and being accused of being a traitor and thief for thousands of years, it is better to wake up at the right time. Just kill these "heroes" of them.

Of course, although everyone thought so, no one dared to take this step first. Based on the sum of three and two, the three lieutenants got together and discussed openly and honestly. .

"What can I do? It's still not the same." Deputy General Wang raised his hand to signal the two of them to sit down, and he found a chair to sit over, before he said worriedly: "Your Highness is only immersed in his own imagination, and he doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with it." No, if this continues, I'm afraid we will end up in the same fate as Chen Xiucheng in the future."

"Who says it's not? Even though we have those supplies, we can't last long in this cold weather. Now that the imperial army has won a great victory, the emperor hasn't spared his hands. Otherwise, how can we brothers have a chance to sit on the table?" Talk here."

Hearing this, the other lieutenant nodded in agreement, and tentatively said: "What do those two brothers mean..."

Since they were able to get together, it meant that several people had a heart of betrayal towards Chen Xiucheng. However, in such a risky matter, instead of being the first bird alone, it would be better to stick together with each other. At any rate, there would be a little more chance of winning.

"What can we mean? Zuo is just loyal to the imperial court." Vice General Wang glanced at the two men, his eyes were full of meaning, the two men understood, and said with a smile: "Big brother said that we eat the royal salary , so, that is as it should be.”

The so-called building will be pushed by everyone, or it can be said that "the one who knows the current affairs is a hero", in short, Murong Li never expected that the lieutenants who she relied on the most as her confidantes would turn against each other without hesitation at a critical moment. Or he should have thought of it a long time ago, but he didn't even want to believe it, preferring to live in the spring and autumn dream of being able to ascend the throne.

In the army, there were always undercurrents and complaints, but now even a few lieutenants were dissatisfied, and the result was naturally as Leng Yuanxun expected, and Murong Li's nearly [-] soldiers were recruited without a single soldier. As for Murong Li herself, someone secretly drugged her, and when she woke up again, her whole body was tied up and brought in front of Leng Yuanxun.

Although such a result was originally expected by Leng Yuanxun, even he himself did not expect it to come true so smoothly. It can be seen that Murong Li's vigilance is really low, and he didn't notice anything unusual when it happened.

At that time, Leng Yuanxun's emotions had gradually withdrawn from Chen Xiucheng's death, and when he saw Murongli, he just smiled indifferently, "His Royal Highness, please come and be safe."

"Leng Yuanxun, don't put on airs here. I used to think that you were a gentleman. I didn't expect that after a few days, you have learned to play dirty tricks." From the moment she woke up, Murong Li knew that she was doomed. There is often only one chance for things. If he loses his only chance, he loses everything. He just doesn't know how Leng Yuanxun will deal with himself.

Although on the surface, Murongli is far from being as vicious as Chen Xiucheng, and even made great contributions in the last battle of defending the city, saving many people from being slaughtered, but only half a year ago he did it for Leng Yuanxun will never let him go when he fights for power with Murong Jing, sending people to cut down the dams of the Jiangling River and displacing countless people from their homes.

Treating human life like nothing is not worthy of being a human being.

"In terms of the ability to play tricks, who can compare with His Royal Highness Shangling King?" Leng Yuanxun was not angry at Murongli's disrespectful words, but just looked up at him expressionlessly, "You have been doing this all these years." What I have done, I am very clear in my heart, do I still need to tell you one by one?"

Based on Leng Yuanxun's understanding of Murong Li, the other party did not have the courage to kill himself like Chen Xiucheng, and given his current disadvantageous situation where he was completely powerless to fight back, he completely lost the chance to die with him. Because of this, Leng Yuanxun He didn't want to execute him silently by lynching, but wanted him to confess his guilt in person and hand it over to the Ministry of Punishment for handling according to law.

The only thing that can execute him is the law of the state.

'If you don't follow the rules, you can't make a circle', so fair and just can convince everyone.

"What did I do?" Murong Li stared at Leng Yuanxun with eyes full of sparks, as if she wanted to eat him alive, "You take advantage of the opportunity that the king is not in the capital, and lead troops into the palace to control the father. In the end, instead, yes, the winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. There is nothing to say about our father and son being in your hands, but you... In essence, you are just the same person as us, so what is there to say? Proud of it?"

In Murong Li's long-term knowledge, the only obstacle to his ascension to the throne was Murong Jing, so after hearing the news that Murong Jing was executed for rebellion, he believed that he had already walked in front of the supreme throne. Going up is only a step away, but he never expected that Leng Yuanxun would come out halfway and cut off his hopes for so many years. It is reasonable to feel dissatisfied and resentful.

"You're right, I, like you, have been planning for the supreme throne for many years, but I'm different from you, because I'm not like you, I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goal!" Leng Yuanxun's tone It was very calm, without much fluctuation, "Not to mention anything else, the plague in the capital city, the embankment of the Jiangling River, these two things have solid evidence, it is not I who slandered you."

Over the years, Murong Li and Murong Jing have fought openly and secretly, and he may not even be able to count the number of immoral things he has done, but those are all within the scope of party struggles, and the people involved voted for their masters for their own glory and wealth, and finally ended up as cannon fodder There is nothing worthy of pity for her fate, but Murong Li should never have dragged innocent people into it for her own self-interest.

Hearing the words 'Beijing plague', Murong Li's face couldn't help but change color slightly. The Jiangling River burst its embankment. At that time, Leng Yuanxun was the imperial envoy to relieve the disaster. It's not unusual for him to find out the truth, but he It never occurred to him that the other party even knew about such a secret plague in the capital.

Although Murong Li's expression was not too exaggerated, it already explained everything. Leng Yuanxun didn't wait for him to answer, he just smiled and said: "You think you have done a perfect job, and when the time comes, not only will you be able to make many different people unaware Even I will be grateful to you because of Xu Maolin's life-saving grace, and then willingly use it for you, but it's a pity that you never thought that Xu'er would be killed halfway, not only taking all your credit, And mess up all your plans."

Without Qu Lingxu, the strength of Murongli's faction would have greatly increased. If he wanted to seize the throne, it would probably take him a while. It can only be said that there is God's will in the dark.
