"Uncle!"
Zhuiyue looked at the empty door with an ugly expression on his face.
She spent the most time with Lin Bai and knew the most about Lin Bai, because Lin Bai never hid anything from her.
But in the past it was just suspicion.
But now, what the Red Lotus Saint said just now, although she did not say anything clearly.
But in fact, many problems have been proved.
Lin Bai couldn't help but frown.
This is fucked up!
The identity of his predecessor has always been something he was unwilling to face, but now it seems that it is most likely true, although he does not feel that it has anything to do with him at all, and it is all the fault of his predecessor.
But will the officials in the court believe it? Will Lao Zhu believe it?
Even if Lao Zhu really believed it, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to tolerate it. His identity has determined everything.
Two options!
If you choose the former one, you will have to face the upcoming major chieftains in the southwest. It is unclear whether you can convince them by then.
Even if they can be persuaded, even if the southwest crisis is solved, this matter will not be escaped in the future.
Finish your errands here early? Go back and become the Seventh Princess's wife, then resign and go far away? Go to Wu Dynasty to find Lao Wu?
It seems like a choice.
Choose the second option and rebel with the Yang family now? There are so many southwestern chieftains, and the Red Lotus Sect is fanning the flames everywhere. If the fourth brother can still support him, there seems to be a glimmer of hope in activating the fifth brother's relationship in the Wu Dynasty.
No!
To be honest, the hope is quite high.
Because of that, the entire Li Dynasty will inevitably be in chaos. There is also Zhu Kang, the second son in Jiangnan, who will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble. The northern grasslands, Wu Dynasty, etc., let alone conquering the world, it seems that it should not be difficult to settle down in a corner.
But if this is true, how many people will die in the entire Li Dynasty?
The great talents feel that one is bigger than the other two.
He just wants to eat a soft meal in peace and contentment, so we go to such trouble.
After glancing at Zhuiyue, Lin Bai couldn't help but ask, "Zhuiyue, what if Your Majesty wants my uncle's life?"
Zhuiyue's eyes were determined, "Then resist!"
Good guy!
So wild?
Lin Bai looked at her and finally shook his head, "No! The matter has not reached that point yet. Even if it does happen one day, I will ensure the safety of the eldest lady and the others."
Zhuiyue was startled for a moment, "Didn't she just say that she could guarantee the safety of the eldest lady?"
Lin Bai said: "Do you believe her?"
Zhuiyue didn't know how to answer for a while. The other party rebelled together, so there shouldn't be any problem, right?
Lin Bai said: "Maybe she is worthy of belief, but..."
He did not continue talking. When he was in Aurous Hill, he realized that something was wrong. The Red Lotus Sect obviously wanted to use that opportunity to expose the identity of his predecessor.
It was the Red Lotus Saint who finally appeared and stopped this.
This is enough to show that the Red Lotus Sect is not monolithic.
This so-called Red Lotus Saint is most likely the cousin of her predecessor, and may be trustworthy, but what about the others?
Lin Bai would not entrust the safety of Su Mingyue and others to others.
so……
No one knew how fucked up the talented man was inside, and everyone was extremely curious about the so-called top priority he said.
time flies.
Two days passed quickly.
On this day, it was still just dawn, and many people poured into the streets.
Admiral Yamen.
Jiang Hailiu stayed up all night because he had received news last night that the armies of the major chieftains had marched towards Guiling, coming from all directions. The situation was extremely critical.
He was also panicked inside.
At this time, a follower quickly came to report, "Sir, two chieftain armies have arrived ten miles outside Guiling City."
"Come so fast!"
Jiang Hailiu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately asked, "Did they encounter any resistance on the way?"
The attendant said: "No!"
Jiang Hailiu asked again: "What about Zhao Qianjun? Did he have any reaction?"
The attendant said: "So far, there has been no response."
Jiang Hailiu snorted, "This Lin Qingfeng is really brave. Does he really want to face the army of southwestern chieftains alone?"
Xu Yihong also frowned. Obviously, neither of them knew where Lin Bai's confidence came from.
That was an army of countless southwestern chieftains, and they were already approaching the city.
But the person on the other side didn't react at all.
Isn't this boring?
He was not the only one who didn't understand. Lu Zhendong, the governor of the Yamen, also had a serious look on his face.
Chen Ping and other officials were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. "Master Lu, we should not listen to Lin Qingfeng. We should stop the major chieftain armies from entering Guiling. That way there is still some hope. If we wait until they are here Meeting outside Guiling City is already impossible."
"That's right! Mr. Lu, you are the governor of a province. At the critical moment, you should make a decision. Once the chieftain army enters Guiling, then..."
The faces of all the officials became extremely ugly.
There is no way, this is a rebellion, no joke.
The most important point is that Guiling did not make any response to this. There were only a small number of city guards. Once the chieftain army poured into Guiling, they had little ability to resist. There was only one way waiting for them, and that was death. .
How could they not panic in such a situation?
Lu Zhendong looked quite calm and said: "Master Lin is the imperial envoy. Since he said so, he naturally has his own ideas."
"My lord, it's already this time, do you still believe him? If the imperial court wants to change its position, those chieftains will never agree! Now that the troops have been sent out, there is no turning back. This matter is irreversible no matter what. "
"That's right! In another hour, the entire Guiling will be surrounded, why not take advantage of now, we, we...
Obviously, many officials wanted to retreat.
It's still too late to leave now, but if it's later, it'll be hard to say.
Lu Zhendong glanced at everyone and scolded: "What nonsense are you talking about and sending troops? This has never happened. Remember, they all came to Guiling to discuss important matters at the invitation of Master Lin."
"Also, prepare immediately. Master Lin and the chief chieftains will be arriving soon."
All the officials are in trouble.
Just follow orders.
Lu Zhendong looked outside the door, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
At the same time, outside a certain attic not far from the governor's office, the Red Lotus Saint was looking over here, with an indescribable look on her face, nervous? Worried?
A rich middle-aged man's voice came from the attic behind her.
"Have you already told him?"
The Red Lotus Saint was startled for a moment, and then said: "If father is worried, you can go there in person again."
The voice sighed: "My father doesn't disbelieve you, I just want you to understand that this is your cousin's own decision. Maybe you think he is living a good life now, but all this is just a mirror, and one day his My identity will be exposed, what should I do then?”
The Red Lotus Saint's expression froze, with a sad look on her face, "But this is too difficult for my cousin. How should he make a decision?"
