Ji Zeyu didn't say a word, just stood silently with his hands behind his back, looking down at the person kneeling not far away.
Chen An looked at Ji Zeyu uneasily, and seeing that his expression did not change, nor did he look like he was furious, he continued to say: "Ding Guogong, you are a hero, and your reputation cannot be ruined because of temporary anger. If you insist on helping the rebels, don’t you become a rebel yourself? How will the history books record you in the future?”
Ji Zeyu still didn't speak, only slowly paced a few more steps.
Although Chen An is a spy who has been with Li Qitian all the year round, he also understands the power of the emperor, but Ji Zeyu is a man who fights bloody on the battlefield all the year round, and now Ji Zeyu has just returned from the battlefield of the Tartars, full of murderous aura, even Even more frightening than Li Qitian's imperial might.
Chen An swallowed a mouthful of saliva, carefully looked at Ji Zeyu's expression, and saw that he still showed no signs of anger, so he was relieved.
"Ding Guogong is a smart person, and he must see how much sincerity I have brought the emperor to come here. I also ask Dingguo Gong to think twice. One is the matter of loyalty to the king, and the other is the most important thing for the stability of the world. Yes, Duke Ding also cares about his reputation. What's more, Princess Anyang was killed by the Qin family. If Duke Ding insisted on helping Pang Xiao, I don't know how many people will hate you and insult you behind your back. Are you willing?"
At this time, Ji Zeyu had already walked up to Chen An.
He is tall and has a peerless appearance. When he looks at people with no expression, he has a sense of superiority. In addition, he is full of murderous aura, so cold sweat broke out on Chen An's back.
Ji Zeyu's voice was calm, "So, you always called Pang Zhixi a rebel when you were outside? How could you spread rumors to slander him in the capital?"
As soon as he heard this, Chen An immediately felt that something was not right.
"Prince Dingguo... why are you helping the rebels?"
"Dare you say it?"
Ji Zeyu bent down, like picking a flower, leisurely grabbed Chen An's neck with one hand, and lifted the person up effortlessly.
Chen An's eyes were wide open, looking at Ji Zeyu in disbelief, a gasping sound of "hehe" came out of his throat.
Ji Zeyu smiled, approached Chen An and whispered, "Do you know what is the most unbearable thing for me?"
Without giving Chen An a chance to speak, Ji Zeyu said: "The most unbearable thing for me are those people who are obviously dirty and whose soul is more disgusting than the mud in the pigsty. Blinds and fools come to fool them, but they don't know that the stench all over my body can't be covered by that layer of skin that looks like a human!"
Chen An opened his mouth wide, kicked with both feet, and grabbed Ji Zeyu's hand with both hands, but it didn't work at all.
"Your master is such a thing. Jealousy, ungrateful, treacherous, shameful and ridiculous!"
Chen An was unable to say a word, and seemed to have no response to Ji Zeyu's abuse. Because he was so suffocated that he could barely hear.
When Ji Zeyu saw the other party like this, he suddenly exerted force on his hand. He only heard a "click" in Chen An's throat.
Ji Zeyu disgustedly took out a white handkerchief from his sleeve, wiped his hands, and threw it on Chen An's body. He took the whip to the camp, and called his cronies to come: "Go, deal with it. Send people to protect the tents where the family members of the princes live near the main tent, and send more people to endure and strengthen patrols, so that no one can take advantage of the loopholes."
"Yes!" The cronies were a little surprised that Ji Zeyu said so many words in one breath, but he didn't dare to neglect at all, and immediately went down to give orders.
Back by the bonfire, Pang Xiao had finished wrestling and was drinking a bowl of wine with a set of bowls. Seeing Ji Zeyu coming back, he asked with a smile, "Alan, are you coming too?"
Ji Zeyu smiled and said, "Forget it, it's okay to make trouble. Now is not the time for us to relax, so don't drink anymore."
Pang Xiao nodded with a smile, walked around the crowd, patted Ji Zeyu's shoulder with one hand, and tied his messy hair casually.
"It's okay, I'm just happy that the family can be reunited."
The two walked side by side in the direction of the main tent, Pang Xiao raised his arms and tied his hair while walking, and Ji Zeyu followed slowly.
Ji Zeyu could see that Pang Xiao was completely defenseless against him. In fact, if he wanted to harm Pang Xiao, it was the easiest way to do it. No wonder Li Qitian chose him to lobby.
But he had no such idea at all.
Remembering what Chen An said just now, Ji Zeyu couldn't help but sneer.
Li Qitian made a good calculus and wanted him to kill Pang Xiao, if he couldn't kill him alive. Who does he take him to be? Although Ji Lan is not a decent gentleman, he also knows that there is something to be done and something not to be done.
Pang Xiao never did anything against morality, nor did he do anything against the oath they made when they rose up against the tyranny of Northern Hebei. On the contrary, Li Qitian, who ascended the throne, broke his promise, was selfish, disregarded the suffering of the people, and sacrificed the lives of innocent people for his own sake.
If he could share wealth with such a person, wouldn't he also become a scumbag
No matter what, Ji Lan can still tell what is right and what is wrong.
The two chatted for a while before going back to rest.
The next day, the camp was pulled out, and after a day of rapid marching, the city wall of the capital could already be seen at the front of the team.
Pang Xiao did not allow anyone to move rashly, and only ordered to set up camp after arriving one after another.
And the defenders on the city gate, seeing the mighty crowd coming, were already frightened and pale, ran down the city wall in a panic, and shouted: "Close the door, close the city gate! The rebels are coming!"
The clear sky was clear and cloudless, and even the cool breeze brought by the occasional good wind could not dispel the panic in people's hearts.
Mixed by such a flustered voice, the entire city gate was in chaos.
The people who were going in and out of the city gate are now running into the city like crazy, the road is full of dust, and even the city gate is closed with a "bang", and there are still shoes on the ground outside the city. Picked up baggage and carts etc.
That's how everyone reacted when the Tatars called.
Seeing that the city gate was closed, the Hu Ben Army and the Peaceful South Army did not care, and only listened to the orders to set up camp. The soldiers and horses that arrived one after another all followed the formation, starting from outside the north gate of the capital, and marching towards both sides of the capital in an embracing trend. Obviously, they wanted to surround the entire capital, and the thirty soldiers brought by Pang Xiao. Ten thousand horses do have this ability.
The defenders will quickly go to the palace to inform the situation.
The city immediately became chaotic.
Everywhere in the streets and alleys, there are people who gather to discuss this matter, and no one wants to die, and when the real army is under the city, no one can pat his chest and say that Prince Zhongshun will definitely not kill people.
It's just that compared to those defending the city soldiers and court officials, the people's mood is indeed lighter than them. After all, Pang Xiao has never killed innocent people indiscriminately, and everyone is worried about the disaster of Chiyu.
"Holy, please tell me quickly, what should we do now?"
All the ministers in the court who were smarter and more strategic were called to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
Li Qitian paced on the ground with a pale face, "You came to ask me? Did I raise you all for nothing? Ask me at the critical moment, what is the use of you?"
Li Qitian was sweating anxiously.
The courtiers also have no rules in their hearts, and they are all over the place.
When they really saw Pang Xiaobing approaching the city, they realized the horror of that kind of army crushing the realm. It is a sense of hopelessness that is irreversible for ordinary people when a mountain torrent and tsunami hits.
"Sir, for today's plan, we must never start a war! Once the war starts, and the army directly enters, how can we still win? At that time, life must be ruined!"
"Yes, sage, you must find a way to stabilize Pang Xiao, and you must not start a war!"
Li Qitian frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean, do you want me to seek peace immediately? Let Pang Xiao stop the handsome army from coming in, so as to save your dog's life?"
"Sir, it's not a pity for my ministers to wait for death. It is the people in the court who are distressed by the ministers! Besides, where is the time to hit a stone with an egg? The sooner we start the war, the faster the demise of Dazhou will be accelerated!"
"presumptuous!"
Li Qitian turned around very quickly and glared at the old minister who was talking. Only then did he realize that the few people who spoke just now were the old people from Northern Hebei.
"Yu Ziqiu! Could it be that this is your way of being a minister, and your loyalty is to slander the country and the emperor indefinitely!"
"The sage should calm down, but this minister has no intention of doing so. It's just that now that the army is in the city, if you want to protect the sage, the royal family, and the people, you can only find a way not to go to war."
"Yes, my lord!"
"The sage forgives the undocumented sins of the ministers. To say something unpleasant, more than ten years ago, when Pang Xiao and Ji Lan led their troops to attack the capital, it was a tragic situation! It's better, but I was frightened, but how many burning, killing and looting happened in this palace wall, don't you remember the holy experience?"
"Songquan! You are presumptuous! You were only able to mention it back then?" Li Qitian was brought up with the experience of destroying the Northern Hebei Province, and couldn't help but glared and pointed at the speaker.
This is also an old man from Northern Hebei. He doesn't look like a mountain or dew on weekdays, but now his words are sharp and straight to the heart!
However, Song Quan ignored it and said directly: "The sage did not forget it? Back then, the sage issued a decree, so almost no one in the palace wall was spared. Now if there is a real war, and Pang Xiao and Ji Lan attack, it is inevitable that they will not repeat the same mistakes. In those days, Sheng Shang, Pang and Ji defeated Beiji with an overwhelming advantage, and now the two of them are still an alliance, but Sheng Shang is on the opposite side!"
Li Qitian felt as if someone had poured a ladle of cold water over his head, and his whole body was jolted.
Make peace? How to ask? Just put your face away like this, say a soft word, and hand over Jiangshan to others? Then he was like Yuchiyan, a king of a subjugated country, he might be left alive, but he lived his whole life without dignity
