"Did you hear anything just now?"
Mu Lin, who was sitting at the rear and was responsible for guarding against enemy raids, frowned and asked.
The guard beside him hurriedly raised his hands and responded: "Back to the general, I heard the sound of the city wall collapsing. I'm afraid it won't be long before Linchen City is captured by General Zhao Tuo."
"Yes, General, our artillery will be useless by then. It is a pity."
Another guard also smiled and said with a hand.
Mu Lin glanced at them, frowned and said, "That's not what I'm talking about, it's the mountain. Have you heard the sound coming from the mountain?"
"Mountain?"
The two guards were stunned for a moment, looking at each other in confusion.
At this time, one of the guards reacted and asked tentatively: "Is the general worried about Colonel Lu?"
"Why am I worried about him!"
Mu Lin rolled his eyes and said angrily: "He is Zhao Tuo's person, not mine!"
"Then the general is worried about His Majesty?"
"Um?"
Mu Lin was stunned for a moment, and suddenly thought of something, and said doubtfully: "Someone just reported to Zhao Tuo that Zhao Gao had sacrificed their wife to His Majesty. Zhao Tuo was furious, so he ordered people to attack the city with all their strength and sent Lu Jia to search. The whereabouts of Zhao Gao, is Zhao Gao in the back mountain?"
"Probably!"
One of the guards suddenly said with certainty: "If Zhao Gao's traces had not been discovered, Captain Lu would not have led his troops to attack the back mountain rashly!"
"In other words, His Majesty is also at the back?"
"Zhao Gao will do anything to please His Majesty, so naturally he is inseparable from His Majesty!"
"So Lu Jia is from South Vietnam?"
"Yes!"
"Oops!"
Mu Lin's expression changed greatly, and he slapped his thigh: "The South Vietnamese hate the Qin people more than we do. If Lu Jia does anything wrong to His Majesty, we will all die here!"
"ah?"
The guards' expressions were stunned and they seemed to have no reaction.
But I heard Mu Lin say in a deep voice: "Besides us, there are 200,000 Qin troops. Without His Majesty's orders, they are our enemies!"
"But, what we are doing now, isn't it to oppose His Majesty and the Qin Dynasty?"
"Confused! When did we say we were against His Majesty and against the Qin Dynasty? We are on the side of the Qing monarch, and we punish traitors and traitors!"
"this"
The guards were at a loss for words, wondering if there was any difference?
But Mu Lin seemed to have his own plan and decisively ordered: "Send someone immediately to notify General Zhao Tuo and ask him to recall Lu Jia to prevent the chaos from expanding!"
"promise!"
One of the guards retreated as promised.
The next moment, there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance, and a cavalry was seen running towards this side quickly.
Mu Lin frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Uu——"
The cavalryman stopped his horse about three feet away from Mulin and said with cupped hands: "General Qi, there is a small boat on the river with three people on it. After being captured by our army, he claimed to be from Fujian and Yue and asked to see him. General, please make a decision, General!"
From Fujian and Yue?
Ask to see me?
Could it be his father's person?
Thinking of this possibility, Mu Lin waved his hands calmly: "Bring them here, treat them with courtesy, and don't make any noise!"
"promise."
The cavalryman agreed and immediately rode back.
After a while, the cavalry led three people and slowly arrived at Mulin's military tent.
Mu Lin sat on the main seat and carefully looked at the three people in front of him. He found that they were all wearing cloaks, their heads hung down, and their faces could not be seen clearly.
But from their body shapes and the material of their cloaks, it is not difficult to see that they are indeed members of the Mu family in Fujian and Yue.
"Okay, leave them behind, and you all can go down!"
After confirming that the other party was from the Mu family, Mu Lin felt at ease and waved his hand expressionlessly to dismiss the guards in the tent.
Although the guards in the tent looked puzzled, Mu Lin's martial arts skills were enough to deal with two or three assassins, and it was impossible for these people to assassinate blatantly, so they wisely exited the tent.
When only Mu Lin and three members of the Mu family were left in the tent, Mu Lin asked in the dialect unique to the Minyue people: "What did my father say?"
"Alin."
Just as Mu Lin finished speaking, a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly came from the cloak.
Mu Lin trembled all over and couldn't help but widen his eyes with shock: "Ah Yin"
"it's me!"
As soon as these words came out, Mu Lin didn't have time to think about it. He got up from his seat at a loss, rushed forward in three steps, and lifted up the cloak of the person who spoke.
I saw a dreamy face suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, and my eyes suddenly turned red.
Once upon a time, he imagined more than once that Princess Yinhua might not be dead, but Mu Yang's sword did strike Princess Yinhua, and the blood really flowed out of Yinhua's body.
However, now that Princess Yinhua appeared in front of him alive, it made him doubt that this was not reality but a dream.
"Ah Yin, pinch me quickly, pinch me quickly! Are you really still alive?"
Princess Yinhua raised a smile on her lips, stretched out her white and thin jade hands, gently touched Mu Lin's cheek, and said softly: "Alin, I'm still alive, and I will never leave you again."
Feeling the familiar temperature, Mu Lin's lips trembled and she was too excited to speak.
At this time, the two cloaked men who were watching them silently slowly put down their cloaks.
But I heard the cloaked man standing in front say in a deep voice: "Young Master Mu Lin, my master has a few words to tell you."
"What words?"
When Mu Lin heard this, he subconsciously turned his head, with tears still in the corners of his eyes.
"The master needs your help, Princess Yinhua is sincere!"
"Hmph! Ah Yin is mine, why should I help him? Besides, if it weren't for him, would Ah Yin be killed by Mu Yang?"
"But, Young Master Muyang is dead."
"So what? When I escaped from the Mu family, I was no longer a member of the Mu family!"
Hearing this, the two cloaked men looked at each other, shaking their heads and sighing.
At this moment, the cloaked man standing next to Princess Yinhua said: "Young master, you might as well look at Princess Yinhua's palms."
"Um?"
Mu Lin was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Princess Yinhua.
Princess Yinhua smiled bitterly, slowly opened her palms, and murmured: "Before I came, Doctor Mu had someone plant this Gu."
"This" Mu Lin was stunned: "This is the heart-eating Gu?"
"Um."
Princess Yinhua nodded without saying anything, because the Heart-Eating Gu was the most terrifying poison in Fujian and Yue, and it was impossible for Mu Lin not to know about it.
However, even though Mu Lin was full of anger, in order not to part ways with Princess Yinhua, he still suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a deep voice: "What does he want to do?"
“Surrender to Qin’s Young Master Hao!”
"Ah!"
Mu Lin laughed angrily: "He actually wants to surrender to his murderer?"
"What does Young Master Mu Lin mean?"
"What if I don't agree?"
The leading man in cloak said expressionlessly: "I may never see Princess Yinhua again!"
"Are you threatening me?" Mu Lin narrowed his eyes.
"I dare not, but what I said is the truth. You should know the master's methods."
"snort!"
Mu Lin snorted coldly and said no more.
He naturally knew his father's methods. He was a bastard who would give up anyone for himself.
He clearly knew that Mu Yang was having an affair with his concubine, but he turned a deaf ear to it because Mu Yang was the general of Fujian and Yue.
Mu Lin naturally didn't expect such a person to talk about the love between father and son.
Soon, Mu Lin made up his mind: "Go back and tell him that I will cooperate with him, but please also tell him that I am not Mu Yang!"
"good."
The leader of the cloaked man responded cheerfully, and then led the other cloaked man out of the big tent.
At this time, Princess Yinhua nestled in Mu Lin's arms and burst into tears: "Alin, it's all my fault for harming you."
"I don't blame you, it's all of my own free will." Mu Lin stroked Princess Yinhua's hair and comforted her softly.
At this moment, a report came from outside the door: "General Qi, Lieutenant Lu has led his troops to fight on the back mountain!"
"What!?"
Mu Lin's pupils shrank suddenly and he rushed out of the tent.
at the same time.
The top of the mountain behind the shogunate.
Ying Zheng held a sword and stood behind the Iron Eagle Guard, staring coldly at the rebels in front of him.
At this time, Lu Jia strode forward and said righteously: "Your Majesty is surrounded by villains who are bringing trouble to the world. Please punish the villains and uphold the law of the country!"
"Who is the villain you are talking about? Tell me and I will listen!"
Ying Zheng said expressionlessly.
Lu Jia was not afraid and said Zhao Gao's name, not forgetting to add: "The general is willing to kill the villain for your majesty to punish the rest!"
Gao Yao, who was disguised as Zhao Gao, trembled all over and broke into a cold sweat.
At this time, Tang Sui stepped forward angrily and scolded: "What crime should you commit if you do this?"
"I can swim underground from Long Feng and Bigan, that's enough!"
Lu Jia is also a rare talent among Yue people.
Because he followed a caravan northward when he was a child, he fell in love with the culture of the Central Plains.
Bu Jin obtained relevant books to study, and even became able to speak fluent Daqin dialect.
Therefore, he compared himself to Long Feng and Bigan because he wanted to show his loyalty to the First Emperor as a loyal minister in the Central Plains.
But when the First Emperor heard his words, his face darkened.
This guy compared himself to Long Feng and Bi Gan, wouldn't he have become King Zhou of Shang?
Damn it, do you know how to use metaphors? If not, just don’t use metaphors!
The First Emperor was speechless for a while, but he still showed no emotion or anger. He asked calmly: "If I don't kill Zhao Gao, will you implement military remonstrance?"
Lu Jia drew out his sword and said seriously:
"Your Majesty favors treacherous ministers and harms loyal ministers. Although we have no intention of offending, our swords have no eyes. I hope your Majesty will understand!"
After saying that, he will lead the rebels behind him to kill Zhao Gao.
At this moment, Ying Zheng slowly walked out of the Iron Eagle Guard's protective circle.
Zhao Hao, who was hiding in the dense forest, was very excited and secretly thought that the show was about to begin.
This Lu Jia is worthy of being the high-ranking Prime Minister of South Vietnam in the future. He does what he says without any ambiguity.
In fact, Lu Jia is also considered a legendary figure in history.
As a native of South Vietnam, he won the trust of South Vietnam King Zhao Tuo.
Not only has he held the position of prime minister for decades, but he has also been married to the royal family for generations.
It's just that this person had big plans. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to include the Nanyue Kingdom in his territory, the royal family agreed, but he did not.
Not only did they rebel and kill all the South Vietnamese royal family, they also blocked the roads and prepared to fight the Han Dynasty.
Then
Then there is no more.
The South Vietnam Kingdom disappeared from the map, and his whole family was gone.
However, Zhao Hao was not very interested in this Lu Jia, but he was full of expectations for Ying Zheng's next performance.
He originally thought that Ying Zheng would scold Lu Jia, but he didn't expect that Ying Zheng would just look at everyone calmly and talk eloquently:
“I think back then, our Qin State attacked the Chu State and lost more than 100,000 troops, and returned with a great defeat;
The next year, I sent 600,000 troops. Even though I was as stubborn as the Chu State, I still fell to the front of our Qin State! "
"You say that I favor treacherous ministers and harm loyal ministers, but you don't know that in China's three thousand years, I have not killed meritorious ministers!"
"What about Li Xin? What about Fan Li and Wen Zhong?"
"Failure is not terrible, the terrible thing is accepting failure!"
"And I will never give up!"
"Three hundred is not enough, then three thousand, thirty thousand, three hundred thousand!"
Having said this, he paused and said with an indifferent expression: "Who do you think the person behind you is?"
"They are our soldiers of Great Qin, my Great Wall that protects our country!"
"They are my Da Qin's people in life, and they are my Da Qin's ghosts in death!"
"In the world, I am the only one who can control them. Who do you think you are?"
After finishing his words, he glanced coldly at the rebels behind Lu Jia, and said in a deep voice: "I, the First Emperor of Qin, do I give you permission to use swords without permission?"
"this"
Hearing this, some of the rebel soldiers behind Lu Jia couldn't help but tremble and subconsciously put down their weapons.
but.
Ying Zheng hasn't finished speaking yet.
But I heard him say solemnly:
"In my empire, there are only the Qin soldiers who dedicated themselves to the empire and died. There are no such people as rebels!"
"I am standing in front of you now!"
"As a citizen of Great Qin, as my most loyal old Qin citizen, I will attack your emperor!"
Wow!
The whole place was in an uproar.
Some people cried bitterly and burst into tears.
Some people fell to their knees and let themselves be dealt with.
Do they dare to attack the First Emperor?
It is clear!
They don't dare!
Because the coercion of the First Emperor had long been engraved into their bones and flowed into their blood, like a soul talisman, making them unable to resist at all.
No one in the old Qin Dynasty was convinced, except the First Emperor.
Perhaps in later dynasties, some soldiers would ignore the emperor or even kill him for the sake of profit.
But in the Qin Dynasty, almost no soldiers dared to rebel in front of the First Emperor.
Although Lu Jia understood the culture of the Central Plains, he did not understand the status of the First Emperor in the hearts of the old Qin people, so he was shocked by the First Emperor's remarks.
However, unlike the old Qin people, he was swayed by the First Emperor's words, rather than agreeing with the First Emperor in his bones, so he quickly reacted and shouted unwillingly:
"Have you forgotten the crimes you have committed? Your Majesty is strict and will never forgive you!"
"snort!"
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, and Li didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Jia. He shouted loudly: "Are you my army? Why don't you answer me!"
Buzz——
A feeling of boiling blood rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Without any time to hesitate, the rebels behind Lu Jia put down their weapons and knelt down on one knee.
Chanting:
"Long live my emperor, may the Qin Dynasty live forever!"
"Long live my emperor, may the Qin Dynasty live forever!"
"Long live my emperor, may the Qin Dynasty live forever!"
Waves of fierce shouts suddenly spread across the top of the mountain and resounded throughout the sky, as if the whole world was at Ying Zheng's feet.
Damn it!
Father is awesome!
Zhao Hao was stunned and shocked.
