Riding the Pheonix Chapter 458: Jump into the pit


Crazy! So **** crazy!

Guo Xu shouted in his heart.

What kind of drama is this? Does Zong Xu not want his life?

——No, this is more terrifying than risking your life.

He is destroying his own job and destroying the foundation of the clan!

"General Zong, do you know what you are doing?"

Zong Xu didn’t even blink: “I know.”

"Do you know that after doing this, the Zong family will never be able to return to its original position?"

Zong Xu twitched the corner of his mouth, with a mixture of mockery and sadness: "How did the Zong family ever have any position? After all, the only word is trust. If you are willing to trust us, the Zong family will naturally stand firm. If you don't want to trust, No matter how well you do it, everything will disappear in a blink of an eye."

"Zong Xu!"

Guo Xu thought to himself that he was really crazy for daring to say such things.

What’s even more outrageous is that I have to force myself to go crazy together!

Zong Xu said nothing, only looked at him faintly. He kept his hand on the sword and showed no intention of moving away.

The threat was so clear that Guo Xu had to seriously consider the consequences of not following him.

This is the northwest army camp, and Zong Xu’s men are everywhere from inside to outside. If he really wanted to kill himself, there was really no way he could do it.

Guo Xu told himself to calm down and first figure out what Zong Xu wanted to do.

"How are you going to protect him?" he asked, "Rumors are already spreading, do you want to make the superiors more suspicious of him?"

Zong Xu said lightly: "If it has reached a fatal point, what's the point of being jealous or not?"

Guo Xuhe and others suddenly understood the information revealed in the words and gasped.

"You, you mean..." He pointed at Zong Xu with a trembling hand. He spoke thousands of words, and finally turned into one sentence, "You are crazy!"..

It has reached a critical point, that is to say, they are sure that the emperor has murderous intentions.

Guo Xu was present at the assassination that day. At this time, it is not difficult to think of the person behind it.

That’s it!

No wonder after that day, when I asked Yang San about that matter, this kid always talked about him.

Since Zong Xu knew that the emperor had murderous intentions, he still wanted to protect him, which meant going against the emperor. As a general in charge of the army, what good consequences could come from opposing the emperor? Unless there is a different emperor...

Guo Xu was frightened by his imagination.

"Zong Xu, General Zong, old Zong!" Guo Xu said with a sincere expression, "Calm down, it has not been easy for the Zong family for so many years, and this matter will affect the whole family. You have guarded the border for decades, Aren't you risking the lives of so many sons just to become a traitor?"

Zong Xu looked at him strangely: "What kind of rebellious ministers and traitors are you?"

Guo Xu was stunned for a moment: "Aren't you going to rebel?"

Zong Xu frowned: "What kind of rebellion is this? My clan has been protecting our family and country for generations, and you are falsely accusing me?"

Guo Xu was confused by him: "Then you..."

Seeing that there was a communication problem between the two of them, Zong Xu’s confidant joined the army and said with a smile: "Master Guo, you misunderstood. What the general meant was to credit Young Master Yang with the great achievements of this battle and ensure that he passed this level. ."

"Uh..."

Guo Xu's mind just turned around.

Oh, that’s what it means! He was scared to death, thinking that Zong Xu was going to support this kid...

It’s okay, okay, I just want credit!

Frightened by the more terrifying consequences, Guo Xu now felt that it was okay not to take this military exploit. He has always been flexible and flexible, but when he saw that he was about to suffer a loss, he simply shrank and became a grandson. Anyway, ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge.

Then he heard Zong Xu say: "Master Guo, you should write this battle report!"

Join Jun pushed the pen and ink in front of Guo Xu, smiled and stretched out his hand: "Please."

"..." Guo Xu realized something was wrong again, "Old Zong, you are asking me to jump into a trap! Once I write this battle report, I will become his guarantor, right?"

Zong Xu said calmly: "Master Guo, the story that Nasu brought people to arrest you a few days ago, but was rescued by Yang San, must have spread throughout the world through the storyteller's mouth."

! ! !

Guo Xu's eyes widened: "Zong Xu!"

Gangqing has been plotting against him for a long time!

With the grace of saving his life, coupled with this battle report, Zong Xu completely shied away his own responsibilities, but it was he who completely offended the emperor!

So insidious!

More sinister than him!

Zong Xu’s hand rested on his sword without moving, his eyes were darker than before, and his tone was full of threats: "Master Guo, are you going to write or not?"

"...Write!"

Full of grief and indignation, Guo Xu started writing a battle report.

How can he choose? If he refused to write, Zong Xu would kill him in the blink of an eye.

And since such a big matter has been revealed, it is impossible for me to stay out of it.

He has to jump into this trap even if he doesn’t want to.

Even if he returns to the capital, the emperor will think that he is the one who wants to protect Yang Shu.

Guo Xu knew better than them that the emperor was not as good as before. After the autumn hunting that year, the emperor's headache became more and more serious, and his temper became unstable.

In the past eighteen years, he has indeed been a benevolent king, but the emperor is the emperor, and he is far more suspicious than ordinary people.

It made him suspicious, and he couldn't get rid of it.

I can only help Yang Shu and convince the emperor that he is not harmful and there is no need to take action. Otherwise, Yang Shu would be deemed worthy of death and he would have to be buried with him.

Guo Xu finished writing in one breath and threw it over: "Do you think this will work?"

After Zong Xu read it, he discussed it carefully with Joining the Army and asked him to make a few changes.

When he was finally satisfied, he asked Guo Xu to copy it again, and then the two of them used the seal together. ~IndoMTL.com~ Guo Xu was dejected: "Can I go back now?"

Zong Xu cupped his fists: "Thank you, Mr. Guo, for your help."

Guo Xu twitched the corner of his mouth, turned around and left.

He doesn’t want to say a word to this old liar now!

Zong Rui came in: "Dad, did he write it?"

"I can't tolerate him not writing." Zong Xu gave him the battle report, "Eight hundred miles urgent, send as fast as possible."

The urgent battle report will be sent to the political hall as soon as possible and will be reviewed by the prime ministers. The emperor cannot have the final say alone.

Such a great battle and such military exploits cannot be suppressed as long as they have passed the clear path.

When the time comes, the emperor still wants to kill him, but it won’t be that simple anymore.

Watching it from beginning to end, Yang Shu couldn't help but understand Zong Xu's intentions.

These days, it's not that he's not troubled, it's just that no matter how troubled he is, he can only wait until the battle is over.

Unexpectedly, just after the victory, Zong Xu solved this problem with thunderous momentum.

"Teacher..." He didn't know what to say.

On the surface, there was nothing wrong with what Zong Xu did, but if he violated the emperor's wishes, he would inevitably lose his grace. It is self-evident how important this is to the Zong family.

This kindness and love cannot be repaid.

Zong Xu breathed a sigh of relief and murmured: "That's fine, there's no need to go against your will..."

Six days later, the urgent battle report came to Beijing.

At this time, the Chengzhou rebellion had been put down. However, the rumors are getting worse and have no intention of dying down.

The report from the Imperial City Department has long been placed on the imperial court, confirming that this group of rebels are the remnants of Liuyang County Prince, and they want to disgust the emperor and kill people with a borrowed knife.

But the emperor was already disgusted, and he wanted to sharpen the knife in his hand even though he knew he was borrowing a knife to kill someone.
