Chapter 1052: The Murder List
Wu Chunlai continued in a low voice: "Your Highness, those who achieve great things are not informal, and some things should be decided, otherwise there will be endless troubles." His Royal Highness's original intention was not to be unfilial, and after His Royal Highness won the throne in the future, it would not be too late to fulfill his filial piety. Besides, this matter is not for His Majesty, and the pills will also control the dose, so that His Majesty will not be in danger. Afterwards, His Royal Highness went to detoxify, and the emperor will recover as before. His Highness doesn't have to blame himself for this, he just uses this matter to achieve his goals. Your Highness thinks about it, if you don't make up your mind and take extraordinary measures, how can the situation be reversed? Could it be that His Royal Highness wants to watch King Jin inherit the throne and watch Lin Jue and others celebrate with their crowns? And where will you go in the future, Your Highness? If King Jin ascends the throne, will His Royal Highness King Huai, do you still have a way to live? Lin Jue knew what His Royal Highness King Huai did to King Jin when he put down the rebellion, could King Jin not know? What will he do to you? Please think about it, Your Highness. Benevolence and filial piety are important, but they can't be a woman's kindness and sit and wait to die. ”
Wu Chunlai's words woke up Guo Xu like an enlightenment, especially the next few sentences, which hit the nail on the head and hit the weakness in Guo Xu's heart. At such a time, what are you hesitating about? But if there is anything that can turn the situation around, you should try it. If Guo Mian won the throne, the fact that he had tried to kill him with the power of the bandits would definitely be turned over and settled, would Guo Mian still let him live? Hesitation at this time is simply stupid.
"Grandfather, Lord Wu, you are right. Those who do great things should not be confined to small sections. Besides, I respect my father in my heart, not to be unfavorable to my father, do I have a clear conscience? Guo Xu said in a deep voice.
"Yes, yes, with a clear conscience, with a clear conscience." Wu Chunlai nodded and exclaimed.
I am afraid that the word "clear conscience" has been coined since it was coined, and it is the first time that it has been misinterpreted by others, and he does not hesitate to poison his father in order to achieve his goal.
"Guo Xu, have you made up your mind?" Lu Zhongtian asked.
Guo Xu nodded slowly and said, "I have made up my mind, so I will do it according to my grandfather's plan." We cannot sit idly by. ”
Lu Zhongtian nodded slowly, slowly stood up, and suddenly knelt on the ground in the direction of the northern palace, kowtowing to the ground. Wu Chunlai and Guo Xu didn't know what he meant, they looked at him in surprise, and before they could ask the reason, they listened to Lu Zhongtian speak slowly.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is guilty, and the old minister has no choice but to do it. The old minister is for the sake of the Great Zhou Dynasty, I can no longer let mediocre people take the throne, Guo Xu can be more than a hundred times stronger than the Great Prince. For the sake of the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the dawn of the society, the old minister can only be disloyal and unrighteous once. This matter is completely planned by the old minister, and if there is any punishment from heaven in the future, please surrender to the old man, and there will be no forgiveness with others. Your Majesty, you have to understand the heart of the old minister. ”
Guo Xu and Wu Chunlai looked at each other, and finally left their seats and knelt on the ground and kowtowed. Even if there are thousands of reasons to numb themselves, they all know in their hearts that this plan is a frame-up and a big rebellion. There is always some guilt in my heart, and I need to use repentance to resolve it. But guilt is guilt, and things still have to be done.
After Lu Zhongtian got up

Sitting back on their seats, the three of them began to discuss the details of the entire plan in detail. Such a plan must be flawless, and if any one of them goes wrong, a devastating disaster will befall them, and they will all die without a place to bury. Who would have thought that on such a cold winter night of the first lunar month, three important figures in the Great Zhou Dynasty gathered together and planned an earth-shattering conspiracy, a ruthless plan with no bottom line.
……
The serial murder case in the capital was planned by Lin Jue. After Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengsu were buried, Lin Jue made an appointment with the two righteous brothers to come to the secret discussion and showed them a list of deaths. There were fifteen names on the list, and each one's name was framed in black to indicate that they all had to die.
Ma Bin and Shen Tan were speechless in surprise when they saw this list. The names in the first row of the list are Lu Zhongtian, Wu Chunlai, Guo Xu, and Yang Jun. The leaders of the two core yamen and His Royal Highness the current King Huai are among the people Lin Jue wants to kill.
Ma Bin and Shen Tan were speechless, Lin Jue wanted to kill all the people related to the deaths of Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengsu in order to eliminate the hatred in his heart. When Shen Tan tentatively asked Lin Jue if he had any specific plans, Lin Jue shook his head speechlessly.
Shen Tan and Ma Bin had to remind Lin Jue that the first four people were not easy to succeed, and Lu Zhongtian was surrounded by masters like clouds, and over the years, he had gathered many masters of the rivers and lakes as guards in the palace, coming and going, hugging each other, guarding tightly, and there was no chance of success. Yang Jun is not to mention, Yang Jun has a guard battalion by his side, all of which are selected by him, high-headed horses, coming and going like the wind, not to mention assassination, even if he takes soldiers and horses to besiege and kill, he may not be able to succeed. Huai Wang Guo Xu is the prince, and there are thousands of guards in the house, and there is no possibility of success. Wu Chunlai is a deputy prime minister, and there are many nursing homes around him, so it is not easy to get his hands on it. Both of them believed that it would be an impossible idea to assassinate these four people.
Of course, Lin Jue knew the difficulty of this, and he told Ma Bin and Shen Tan that this was his goal, and no matter what means he used, he would kill them to avenge Fang Dunru and Yan Zhengsu. He is not carried away by anger, he will never make rash impulsive actions, he will look for opportunities. The purpose of inviting them is actually for the people at the bottom of the list. The following list is more than a dozen officials in the Regulation Department, including Liu Xiding. Needless to say, Liu Xiding didn't need to say, the rest of the officials were also thieves who framed Yan Fang's two adults, and Lin Jue wanted to attack them first.
With Lin Jue's own strength, it was actually very simple and easy to kill them, but Lin Jue didn't want to show his flaws. Therefore, Ma Bin and Shen Tan were invited to come because Ma Bin wanted Ma Bin to find out for him the whereabouts and daily behavior of these people. When Shen Tan was invited, he handed him two portraits of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru, and asked him to make more than a dozen masks that looked similar to the two adults within three days.
Lin Jue has never been a person who acts blindly, although he is sometimes a little impatient and rash, but in this matter, he is not carried away by anger and sadness. His purpose in doing so was to create a scene where the ghost was claiming his life in order to confuse the public. Of course, Lin Jue is not so stupid as to think that everyone will believe in ghosts

He knew that as long as these people died, he would be the first suspect and would be stared at. But doing so will at least cause them panic and confusion, confusion and fear. It made all the court officials who had participated in the slander of Yan Fang's two lords frightened and worried. Although most of them were not on Lin Jue's death list, Lin Jue would not let them have a good time, and he would make them panic all day long, not daring to walk in dark places, and not sleeping peacefully at night.
To put it simply, Lin Jue wanted to kill people, not only to avenge Mr. Fang and Yan Zhengsu, but also to create chaos. He wanted to attract the attention of Lu Zhongtian and the others to himself, so that they had no time to take care of anything else. And he can find a way to search for some evidence and completely convince Guo Chong that when the Qingjiao rebellion, Lu Zhongtian, Yang Jun, Guo Xu and others behaved so rebelliously and shamelessly. As long as Guo Chong believes this, once Guo Mian is established as the crown prince, Lu Zhongtian, Yang Jun, Guo Xu and others will be completely defeated.
Of course, Ma Bin and Shen Tan couldn't refuse Lin Jue's request, in fact, they took the initiative to ask to help Lin Jue solve these people. But Lin Jue didn't promise them, and he didn't want to pull Ma Bin and Shen Tan into the water. What he needed was the help of intelligence, and he had to do the rest himself.
It took Ma Bin three days to find out the residences of more than a dozen officials of the Ordinance Department on the list. Liu Xiding's killing that night was actually not in the plan, Lin Jue originally wanted to act at the same time and kill Liu Xiding and the others on the same night. But according to Liu Xiding's activities in the first two days of the New Year, he has been haunting the Prime Minister's Mansion and Wu Chunlai's Mansion and does not go home, if he is still like this in the next few days, Lin Jue can't wait any longer.
Therefore, when Liu Xiding went to Xichun Tower that day, when the news was delivered to Lin Jue, Lin Jue decisively decided to do it and slaughtered this shameless informant first. That night, Lin Jue and Bai Bing sneaked into the room from the back of the building, although the back wall of the two-story building was smooth, it was not too difficult for Bai Bing. Bai Bing stood on the windowsill and pulled Lin Jue up with a rope, and the two entered the room through the window, beheading Liu Xiding, who was distracted and merry. The girl in the house happened to be a witness, otherwise Lin Jue would have to find a way to leave evidence that the ghosts of Yan Zhengsu and Fang Dunru had come to ask for their lives.
Of course, killing Liu Xiding first will startle the snake, it will make other people vigilant, and it will also make Lu Zhongtian and Wu Chunlai their eyes fall on themselves. In fact, Lin Jue did not personally participate in the operation the next night, but Sun Dayong took the nursing home to do it. In order to confuse the public, Lin Jue had to take his wives and concubines to the street to watch the lanterns appear, exposing himself to the eyes of Wu Chunlai and others who were sent to monitor. Of course, Lin Jue would not think that such alibi evidence would make Wu Chunlai believe that the deceased that night was not his own, and he just used it to cover the smooth progress of the operation.
In fact, killing Liu Xiding first did hinder the operation. Of the eleven people who were supposed to be killed, three of them slipped through the net. The brothers who went to kill came up empty, and the three shrewd officials decisively chose to move out of hiding after learning that Liu Xiding had been asked for his life, and were able to escape with their lives. The remaining eight were beheaded in the same way as kneeling and apologetic.
