Situ You said with a smile that almost never changed: "The general's analysis is reasonable and reasonable. I believe that anyone who hears this analysis will believe that the royal family is the culprit of persecuting the Wu family."
"The reason why the royal family persecuted the Wu family is that the strength and influence of the Wu family have completely surpassed the royal family. The royal family will never allow such a huge danger to exist around them."
"So the royal family has been planning for a long time. It first gave power to the military family, and then all the plans mentioned by the general happened. The royal family's plan can be said to be flawless and impeccable."
"The general's analysis is also reasonable. But has the general ever thought about other possibilities?"
"If the royal family really designed it like this, their hearts would be completely impenetrable. It's chilling and scary to think about it."
Wu Zhan replied calmly: "It's not that I haven't thought about other possibilities. But the existence of the Wu family has not affected any family, except the royal family."
"And throughout history, in all dynasties and generations, there are many incidents where the birds are gone and the dogs are cooked. I really can't think of any reason to convince myself and deny my judgment."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Xunfan never interrupted.
He is already in his thirties this year, and he has taken on the responsibilities of an adult at the age of fifteen. He has seen a lot of intrigues and experienced a lot.
But that was just a fight between people, or between small groups. In a fight between a huge family like the Wu family, Xunfan really had no say.
This kind of fight is not something Xunfan's class can come into contact with. Although he had some thoughts about the process described in Wu Zhan, he did not say it out loud.
Situ You continued: "The whole incident seems very reasonable, but it is often too reasonable, which is the biggest unreasonableness."
"Because how could such a big plan be implemented without any flaws? Of course, we cannot rule out that the royal family is the mastermind behind it. The royal family is still the biggest suspect."
"The general has experienced the entire incident and has understood the cause and effect of the incident. Seeing is believing. But there are two suspicious aspects in this incident. I wonder if the general has thought about it?"
"Sir, please clarify." Wu Zhan said.
"First of all, which department the abnormally mobilized troops belong to, that is, who they are."
"Secondly, whether the emperor is truly unconscious. These two points are very important. I wonder if the general has determined it yet." Situ You said.
Wu Zhan was stunned for a moment and stared at Situ You blankly for ten breaths.
He slowly leaned back on the chair, looked at the ceiling coldly, and fell into deep thought. It seems that he has not thought about the two points mentioned by Situ You.
Xunfan was also shocked by Situ You's words. Situ You hit the nail on the head and pointed out the key to the incident.
It made Xunfan feel inferior. Of course, Xunfan had other ideas in his mind. To be able to say such things is either extremely intelligent or has rich life experience.
But in terms of intelligence, Xunfan claimed that he was not mediocre, but he did not expect this.
But if he has rich experience, he should be not an ordinary person, but he doesn't know Wu Zhan's identity before practicing. What kind of person is this guy?
Xunfan's feeling of mystery towards Situ You became even stronger, and he also felt a faint sense of fear.
A heavy and long exhale interrupted Xunfan's thoughts. He withdrew his mind and saw that Wu Zhan had sat up straight. His eyes were no longer sharp and full of anger, and were very dim.
"Preconceived obsessions have affected my thinking and my judgment. Thank you sir for your guidance." After saying that, he solemnly raised his fists and saluted Situ You.
A seven-year-old child bears the injustice of 342 lives and suffered for more than 20 years. This is a child from the super family of the Wu family, with a background that no one else has. Anyone else would have been driven crazy.
Even an outstanding figure like Wu Zhan cannot be completely able to think about problems in the most rational way. Because this is related to the injustice, reputation, and blood feud of the entire Wu family.
"There, the general is being polite. I am just a bystander. If I were in the general's perspective, I would probably think so."
"And when I thought about this, I should say it. Because I don't want the general to be in a regretful and uncontrollable situation in the future."
"Ugh, what do you say?" This time it was Xunfan who asked.
"Stop pretending. You obviously have extraordinary abilities, but you always disguise yourself. Play low-key and pretend to be mysterious." Situ You stimulated Xunfan.
"Pretending to be mysterious? I'm as good as you! You are the dragon who sees the beginning but never the end." Xunfan shot back.
The words of both of them had a hint. Xunfan didn't know Situ You's identity, especially the kind of person who almost nothing could make him panic, as if he had already understood the cause and effect of all events. It must have an extraordinary identity.
Situ You was referring to Xunfan's technique that astonished him. That technique gave him such a strong sense of familiarity that he wanted to ask Xunfan several times.
"Hey, don't be idle, let's talk." Situ You still had a teasing look on his face.
"You started the topic, how do I know its meaning?" Xunfan responded with a cold look.
"Pretend, keep pretending. Hypocritical, insincere." Situ You curled his lips and said.
"Since Mr. Xun also understands the truth, you might as well tell him sincerely. It also allows me to judge the beginning and end of the incident from different angles, so that I can make the right decision." Wu Zhan really wanted to know Xunfan's inner thoughts, so he Enrich your own perceptions. At the same time, his words also played a neutralizing role.
"Well, since the general has spoken, I will not be respectful." Xunfan expressed his opinion.
"The general targets the royal family for revenge, so he is bound to raise his troops to fight. Regardless of success or failure, it goes against the ancestral precepts of the Wu family."
"The ancestral motto of the Wu family: to protect the royal family, everything will be prosperous, and the people will be happy from generation to generation. As a subject, attacking the royal family is considered disloyal, and violating the ancestral precepts is considered unfilial. Such disloyalty and unfilial piety will inevitably lead to unknown results, and it will be disadvantageous to the general from the starting point. "
"The ancestral motto of protecting the royal family for everlasting prosperity has no meaning now if the enemy of the general is the royal family. Besides, if the royal family is really a guarantable person, it is natural and obligatory to protect him. Otherwise, what is the point of protecting him?"
"It can ensure the peace and happiness of the people for generations. It is always correct. Once the general raises his troops, war will break out and the people will live in dire straits. This is definitely not what the ancestors of the Wu family would like to see."
"This matter is important. I hope the general will think twice before acting. If, in the end, he discovers that there is another enemy of the Wu family, then, as Situ said, the general will be in a regretful and irreparable situation."
"At that time, there will be no family and no country. It is very likely that not only will the name of the Wu family not be vindicated, but it is also very likely that the Wu family will truly bear the name of treason. It will even make the enemies happy and the relatives painful!"
As a former member of the lower class of society, Xunfan only saw the most practical problems. He had experienced too much suffering of the people.
Moreover, Xunfan has lived in the myth of the Wu family since he was a child. After the Wu family suddenly appeared, he really cared about martial arts from the bottom of his heart.
Xunfan's words silenced Wu Zhan for a while. "Thank you, gentlemen, for being vigilant. Your words are really like enlightenment, awakening the lost people." As he said this, he stood up and bowed to the ground.
After the ceremony, Wu Zhan said solemnly: "I really want to make a new plan and make a move that has the best of both worlds. It will not violate the ancestral precepts of the Wu family, but will not lose my true intention. Wu Zhan thanks me here. No matter whether the royal family is He is not my enemy, but what happened back then must have something to do with the royal family. When I raise my troops in the future, I will not put the royal family aside."
The three of them sat down again and continued drinking.
"Has the general raised his troops for revenge for a long time?" Situ You asked.
"Indeed, I had this plan three years ago, before I started practicing."
"If the general acted at that time, what were the chances of winning?" This time Xunfan asked.
"If I had raised my troops at that time, I would have had an 80% chance of winning." Wu Zhan said firmly.
"Eighty percent?" Xunfan said in surprise. How is this possible? In a battle with the royal family, there is an 80% chance of winning. What kind of power has Wu Zhan accumulated? Xunfan was shocked.
"I have just told you two gentlemen how much military power I have in the Eastern Region. It accounts for more than half of the military strength in the Eastern Region."
"Furthermore, my father had many close friends back then. Except for a few who were disheartened and resigned due to my father's death, most of them are now in their positions and control the empire's elite military forces."
"I have contacted them many years ago. They know that there are still descendants of the Wu family, and they have clearly expressed their support for my actions."
"If I had raised my troops to take revenge, I would have at least an 80% chance of winning."
"Then why didn't the general take action?" Xunfan continued to ask.
"Just when I was about to raise an army, I got a secret book of cultivation by chance. At that time, I thought it was God's blessing that gave me this opportunity to help me avenge my family. So I decided to practice again after I succeeded. Raise troops."
"But when I became successful in cultivation, the beast crisis suddenly struck. How could I abandon the people of the Eastern Region and decide to wait until the beast crisis passed before making a decision. If the beast crisis cannot be resolved, there will be no way to talk about family feuds."
"General, you are indeed righteous." Xunfan praised sincerely.
"I wonder what the general should do now when he raises his troops?"
"The emergence of cultivators has changed the pattern of military power. It has subverted the conventions of military power. But I have a lot of cultivators in my hands, and there are also a large number of cultivators in the military forces I can use in other domains. Even now, Soldier, I am also 50% sure."
Fifty percent, this is more shocking than the 80% just now. You know, the current military. It is different from the original. The strength of military power must be measured by the number of practitioners and combat power.
Under this situation, there is still a 50% certainty, which means that Wu Zhan has half of today's practitioners in his hands. What a terrifying number that would be!
No wonder someone wants to take action against the Wu family. The prestige and savings of the seven generations of the Wu family since the establishment of the empire cannot be offset by just twenty years of disappearing. Xunfan ignored this.
