Chapter One Hundred and Thirteen National War Thirteen
Cheng Kai broke away from Zhou Baoyu, whose expression was a bit unspeakable, and stared at Liu Mingzhi closely.
"Just say it!"
"Didn't you say that you are evil-hearted and thick-skinned? Since you are evil-hearted and thick-skinned, what will happen if you say once that this is a divorce plan from the Kingdom of Jin? If you don't admit that Luoyue is your daughter, the civil and military officials of the whole court will be suspicious, but no one will
I dare not say anything, I can only agree that this is a divorce plan by the Kingdom of Jin."
"And this matter will be regarded as a rumor and a plan to alienate the Kingdom of Jin, and it will be ignored in the end."
"Why do you want to admit this? Do you know what the consequences will be if this matter reaches His Majesty's ears?"
"Don't forget, you are not an ordinary citizen. You are the Duke of Dingguo of Dalong and one of the five auxiliary ministers. Your position is destined to set a benchmark for the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty and for the people of the world!
"
"It is true that the late emperor deposed torture, but for treason and surrendering to the enemy, no one can stop your family from incriminating the nine tribes."
"The dignified Duke Ding and the little princess of Jin are in a father-daughter relationship. Once word gets out, the court's face, His Majesty's face, and you, Liu Mingzhi, will all be ridiculed and scorned by others."
"The Duke of Dingguo, the auxiliary ministers, civil and military officials, and the role models of the people in the world have committed treason and surrendered to the enemy."
"All dignity will be gone."
"You said you did not treason and surrender to the enemy. We believe you. Will His Majesty believe you? Will all civil and military officials believe you? Will the people of the world believe you?"
"You will be criticized verbally and writtenly by those imperial censors!"
"You will be seized by those political opponents who have been eager to unseat you, kill you, and destroy your Liu family."
"At this point, what if you are His Majesty's brother-in-law? What if you are His Majesty's trusted minister? What if you are the prince-consort of the court?"
"Your Majesty won't do it unless I kill you."
"Not only will you die, but you will also be punished for implicating the third princess."
"Even if the third princess cannot die, Your Majesty will still be forced to demote her to a commoner under pressure."
"This world is His Majesty's alone, but it is not His Majesty's alone."
"As the king of a country, His Majesty must always give an explanation to the people and officials."
"Not killing you is not enough to make the people angry, not killing you is not enough to silence the world."
"As the auxiliary minister, you will not understand this. In this case, what can you do if you have a dark heart?"
"So what if it is said that this is a divorce plan by the Kingdom of Jin?"
"Why do you admit it?"
Cheng Kai's roar finally stopped. Liu Mingzhi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head at Cheng Kai.
"I can not do it."
"Yue'er is my daughter, and I am Yue'er's father."
"I, Liu Mingzhi, am not even afraid to admit that I am my biological daughter!"
"Then have you ever thought about it, brothers, you are Luoyue's niece's father, but you are still the leader of three hundred thousand brothers."
"Three hundred thousand, three hundred thousand!"
"The wealth and life of three hundred thousand brothers are all tied to you."
"As long as you don't admit it, Lao Zhou and I won't believe it, but we won't say anything!"
"You are our commander-in-chief, you are our brother, why do you have to admit it frankly."
"At such a critical moment, the father-daughter relationship between niece Luoyue and you has been revealed to the world. You will not be unclear about what it represents and what it means."
"You know it better than anyone else, you understand it better than anyone else."
"You know clearly that this is Queen Jin's plan to alienate you. She just wants to make the 300,000 brothers in the center leaderless. She wants to drive a wedge between you and His Majesty. She wants to cause civil strife in our great dragon."
"You know everything, why do you still admit it?"
"So what if you lied to us once?"
"Brothers, we know you are lying to us but we are still willing to believe you. Why can't you betray your conscience for the sake of the brothers?"
"Liu Mingzhi, have you forgotten what you promised your brothers in the Western Regions?"
"Although their bones are buried under the stone monument, their heroic spirits are watching you with wide eyes in the sky."
"Looking at you!"
Cheng Kai gasped and stared at Liu Mingzhi, hunched over and sitting weakly on the steps beside him.
"Commander, brothers don't know the truth of this matter yet, I will keep it a secret!"
"Lao Zhou, what do you mean?"
Zhou Baoyu smiled bitterly and sat between Cheng Kai and Liu Mingzhi.
"The military rolls of three hundred thousand brothers are all under the name of the commander-in-chief."
"The tiger talisman seals of the three hundred thousand brothers are all in the hands of the commander-in-chief."
"The commander-in-chief is a traitor, and our 300,000 brothers are rebels. We cannot be cleansed!"
"Even if the commander is willing to kill him, none of us can escape."
Cheng Kai silently looked at Zhou Baoyu with a complex expression and sighed: "To be honest, I have never seen your Majesty, what does your Majesty look like?"
Zhou Baoyu was startled, his fists clenched, and he turned to look at Liu Mingzhi: "Commander, don't admit it, at least you can't let the news reach the court and leave."
"If you say this is a rumor, then it is a rumor, and it is a plan to alienate the Golden Queen."
"You have to think about the three hundred thousand brothers. We are willing to follow you through life and death and put our lives in your hands. You can't let the brothers down!"
"Lao Zhou is right. Niece Luoyue is your daughter. Just understand it in your heart. Brothers, just understand it in your heart. When the time comes, our brothers will save Niece Luoyue's life."
"As long as you bite the bullet and refuse to admit it, he will be nothing more than a rumor to spread rumors."
"The purpose is to see my dragon in civil strife!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Cheng Kai and Zhou Baoyu blankly: "Brothers, you guys?"
"Commander, we don't want to be rebels! We want to be heroes returning victoriously. My wife, children, and children at home don't want our brothers to be known as traitors."
"Otherwise, future generations will not be able to hold their heads high!"
"I agree with Lao Cheng. If the imperial edict to withdraw the commander is not in your hands for a day, you will be the commander of three hundred thousand brothers, and the military commander of the army in the middle of the Northern Expedition."
Liu Mingzhi drank all the wine in the altar: "Reply to General Nangong Ye, this is a rumor!"
"Got the order!"
"Got the order!"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Cheng Kai and Zhou Baoyu quietly: "Instruct the three armies to leave five thousand soldiers and horses of the wounded to garrison in Liaozhou. The rest of the brothers rushed to Jinzhou. I am waiting for you at the east city gate!"
"Got the order!"
Looking at Liu Mingzhi's back, Zhou Baoyu pushed Cheng Kai's shoulder.
"Lao Cheng, are you sure it's okay to do this?"
Cheng Kai smiled bitterly: "This is a road with no turning back. The moment we set off for the expedition, the military register will be in the name of the commander-in-chief."
"If the commander dies, we will all fall too. If the commander dies, none of us will survive!"
"In the final analysis, we are also helping ourselves."
"But what about the brothers? You saw their expressions just now!"
Cheng Kai looked around and muttered next to Zhou Baoyu.
"After the death of the late Emperor, neither you nor I have seen His Majesty, not to mention that the three hundred thousand brothers are all new soldiers."
"Only if the 300,000-strong army listens to the commander-in-chief can we all continue to live and our families be safe and sound!"
"What if Your Majesty orders the commander to be dismissed?"
"Confused, is there an imperial edict to remove the commander?"
"To be disrespectful, the food, grass, salary and money come from the national treasury, but it is the commander-in-chief who hands over the brothers' cell phones."
"As long as the commander-in-chief doesn't hand over the Tiger Talisman Commander's Seal, let alone the imperial edict, it may not work even if His Majesty comes in person."
"The commander-in-chief has said that all the armed forces will immediately remove their armor and no one will dare to disobey. Your majesty has given you three imperial edicts, and even the brothers may not dare to take off their helmets."
"The border troops only recognize the Tiger Talisman Commander Seal!"
ps: Second update, I said in the group that I went out to sign an important contract and left in a hurry. Most of the manuscripts were saved on the computer. There are only a few chapters on my mobile phone. I will make up for it as soon as I get back tomorrow.
Please understand, I have to support my family, so I can't keep updating the code!
