Chapter 171: It's finally time for the showdown
Zhang looked at Fu Jian, his eyebrows full of sadness.
Fu Jian saw that Zhang's wanted to speak and stopped, and couldn't help but say softly: "What's the matter?" Aifei, between you and me, what can't be said clearly? ”
Zhang glanced at Fu Jian gratefully, and then said: "Your Majesty, it's not that the concubines hesitate, but that this matter is purely hearsay, and the harem is not allowed to interfere in political affairs. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it, as soon as you say it, I listen to it, I don't blame you!" Fu Jian also knew that what Zhang said was probably something more sensitive, and this kind of thing naturally had to be faced cautiously, even if it was a husband and wife, it had to be clearly explained in advance, so as not to be embarrassed in the future.
Zhang hesitated again, and then said: "Your Majesty, you know that almost none of the relatives of the concubines have entered the court as officials, but they have also heard a lot of rumors in the local area, these rumors. Although it may not be used as evidence, the stakes are very high, and the concubines dare not say it! ”
Seeing that Fu Jian listened carefully, Zhang's courage was a little greater, and he said: "Your Majesty, they have seen it many times in recent days, flying horses passing through Luoyang and heading to Yecheng!" ”
Zhang's words were not loud, but in Fu Jian's ears, they were like thunder.
Flying cavalry is not a general reference, in Fu Jian's case, it is a special reference, a special reference to the secret intelligence personnel under Wei Bin.
And from Luoyang to Yecheng, there is too much information revealed in it.
Fu Jian immediately asked: "Who saw it, when is it?" ”
Zhang said carefully: "They said that it was the first day of the twelfth month, and the two cousins of the concubines saw it, and they were willing to swear, they saw it with their own eyes!" ”
Fu Jian was silent.
This news is really not very good, if you want to say that the relationship between Wei Bin and himself, it must not be said, if there is no trust between the two, there are few people worthy of trust.
Moreover, he gave Wei Bin a lot of special tasks, secret things, let him do it, speaking of which Wei Bin also has a lot of his own secrets, in case he betrays, the consequences are really impossible for him to bear, fortunately, for many years, between the monarch and the minister, mutual trust is good, very tacit understanding.
He trusts him, in addition to Wei Bin's ability to withstand the test for many years, there is actually a very important reason, that is, Wei Bin is a eunuch after all, with no children and no relatives, so that his desire will be much less, the so-called desirelessness is rigid, and it is much more difficult for a person like him to buy than those who have children and a large number of people in the family.
However, Zhang's words undoubtedly made the original perfect trust in Fu Jian's heart appear a little crack.
Wei Bin is trustworthy, but Zhang's is also trustworthy, the two are husband and wife who have shared the same bed for 20 years, and each other, every move, smile and cheek, they are already familiar and can no longer be familiar, Fu Jian must also trust Zhang.
Zhang's son Fu Shu is his favorite son, her family, and she tries her best to take care of it, but she herself refuses, speaking of which, Zhang's has no reason to betray herself, let alone lie and frame Wei Bin.
As for the two cousins that Zhang said, Fu Jian also knew that if these two people had words to describe them, then they were honest, and they had never seen such an honest person.
If these two people make up a lie that is so accurate in time, place and person, Fu Jian doesn't believe it anyway.
Zhang's face was cloudy and uncertain, and she also regretted it a little, in fact, she could not say this news at all, she also knew that Fu Jian and Wei Bin had a deep relationship, but now, the country is in danger of survival, if it is true, and she didn't say it, what consequences have been caused, so she will regret it for the rest of her life.
In any case, the Zhang family loves Fu Jian deeply and loves this country deeply, and even if it turns out to be wrong later, the Zhang family has a clear conscience.
The more Fu Jian thought about it, the more he felt that his heart was very chaotic, if this news was said by someone else, Fu Jian would not laugh, but on the contrary, this was what Zhang said.
Compared with Wei Bin, Zhang has no reason to betray herself, and there is no reason to frame Wei Bin, since she said it so solemnly, Fu Jian also had to pay attention to it.
What to do.
No matter what Fu Jian thinks, he feels that there is no good way, trust as usual, it is difficult, and it is even more difficult to turn a blind eye, but now he rashly investigates, Wei Bin himself is in charge of intelligence, he must be able to know in advance, in this way, if he is wronged, what should he do.
Thinking about it, Fu Jian even felt that he had not been so sad after the Battle of Weishui, but now, Fu Jian really didn't know what to do, because time was too short.
What he needs now is maybe just to calm down, think carefully, and calculate the pros and cons.
Therefore, he waved his hand lightly and said, "You go out first!" ”
"Yes!" Zhang saluted silently and slowly retreated.
And Fu Jian was still alone, circling around the room.
At the same time, Gu Zangcheng's myth about Fu Luo has reached a peak, and the things that Duan Ye has been planning so hard have finally come to execute.
I've been waiting for so long, and this is the moment I've been waiting for.
On this day, Lü Guang personally led the army and launched a tidal attack on Li Tongbu stationed in Hongchiling, because Lü Guang personally went into battle, Jiang Fei, Du Jin and others all went out, Lü Su and Lü You also led the army to charge, such a fierce attack, and finally made a breakthrough.
In fact, Lu Guangxuan launched a general attack at this time, and it was really a last resort, because the sky was no longer cloudless, but cloudy, and everyone with a little common sense knew that after holding back for most of the winter, the Hexi Corridor was finally going to snow.
Once it snows and the mountains are covered with heavy snow, this battle will not be fought, and Lu Guang's plan to take Liangzhou before the New Year will be completely ruined, and in that case, it is not good to say whether they can take Liangzhou or not.
Therefore, it is necessary to take advantage of the present to completely defeat the Hongchiling Division, in this way, if you go to Guzang, you will also be a horse and Pingchuan, and the victorious army will be like a bamboo, and no one can stop it, so Liangzhou is in hand.
Although Li Tong resisted desperately and personally stood on the front line to boost morale, the gap in strength between the two sides was huge and could not be reversed by relying on spiritual strength. Although the three armies were killed, several major highlands were lost.
The morale-boosting Western Expeditionary Army took the opportunity to step up the attack, and in desperation, Li Tong could only announce that he would retreat to the main peak and report to Guzang.
Almost at the same moment, the urgent news reached Fu Luo and Duan Ye.
Duan Ye received the news, looked at it carefully, and after repeatedly confirming that it was correct, Duan Ye said to Zhang Meng, Duan Ping and Chu Yunshen, who were looking forward to it: "The time has come, just now, let's do it!" ”
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison, and they had waited too long for this day.
