Hou Jingang looked around and asked, "You say, what the hell is Chu Huan trying to do?" ”

The other three looked at each other, Ming Ji had always been silent, so naturally he didn't say a word, Yao Wenyuan sneered: "No matter what the hell you do, what do we have to worry about?" After eating this meal, send us to the execution ground, then don't worry. ”

Gu Liangchen frowned and said: "I'm afraid it's not so simple, if you want to send it to the execution ground, why bother doing it?" ”

"It's just hypocrisy." Yao Wenyuan said lightly: "Just pretend to be open-minded." ”

Gu Liangchen was thoughtful, but at this moment, he heard footsteps from the courtyard outside, and the four of them thought it was Chu Huan coming, so they didn't get up, and suddenly heard a voice coming: "What do you want to do?" ”

When this voice came, the four people present all changed color slightly, and Hou Jingang had already taken the lead in saying: "It seems to be ...... Zhu Du's voice! ”

"Not bad." Yao Wenyuan also said: "It's Zhu Du's voice, there will be no mistake, so to speak...... Zhu Du also fell into their hands? ”

Gu Liangchen smiled bitterly: "The Northwest Army and the Xiguan Army are in cahoots, the entire Northwest is already their world, and there is nothing surprising that Zhu Du fell into their hands." But seeing that Hou Jingang had already gotten up, he walked quickly to the door, and did not open the door immediately, but looked out through the crack in the door, and saw several soldiers escorting Zhu Lingyue, who was in the courtyard.

Seeing this, Hou Jingang was about to open the door and go out, but his arm was grabbed, and he turned his head to look, but saw that Gu Liangchen had also come over.

"Do what?"

"If Zhu Du also came to the banquet, we will wait here, if not, what can we say when we go out to see us at this time?" Gu Liangchen smiled bitterly: "It's better not to see each other at this time." ”

Hou Jingang was stunned, and the hand that opened the door was finally withdrawn, but he did not retreat, looking out from the crack in the door, he saw several soldiers escorting Zhu Lingyue to the next door, frowned, and said, "Zhu Du is not here. ”

Soon, I heard a voice from the side: "Ganhou, you despicable villain, do you still have the face to see Bendu?" But it was Zhu Lingyue's voice coming from next door, and Zhu Lingyue's voice was not necessarily loud, but on this side, it could be heard clearly, Gu Liangchen and the others all frowned, thinking that Gan Hou was next door.

On the other side of the wall, Zhu Lingyue sneered at this time, and there was also a small boxy table in the room, with wine and food, and Gan Hou, who was dressed in armor, was sitting at the table at this time, raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Lingyue, and did not get up, but said lightly: "Success and defeat, each is its own master, you don't have to shout here." Soldiers are not tired of deceit, since you command tens of thousands of troops, you can't even understand this truth? ”

Zhu Lingyue smiled coldly, but straightened his clothes, stepped forward, glanced at Ganhou, sat down, stared at Ganhou and said, "In that case, why do you want to meet with this governor?" ”

"You can be regarded as a hero for a while, but it's a pity that you haven't the bearing to cover the world." Gan Hou leaned back on his chair and looked at Zhu Lingyue, "Zhu Lingyue, if you win this battle and dominate the northwest, what will happen next?" ”

Zhu Lingyue sneered: "This governor doesn't understand what you mean. ”

"You understand." Gan Hou said lightly: "Get rid of Chu Huan, of course the next step is me, you have always excluded dissidents, and you don't have the heart to tolerate the world, so naturally you won't tolerate me." You wooed me and formed an alliance with me, just because Chu Huan is still there, Chu Huan is gone, and you and I understand the truth that the birds are good and the bow is hidden. ”

Zhu Lingyue laughed and said, "Ganhou, you think you know everything about this governor? ”

"Don't you admit it?" Gan Hou said coldly: "Of course you know Huang Zhu, these people are escorted all the way from the battlefield and are loyal, but how do you treat them?" They don't have the heart to rebel, otherwise they wouldn't have escorted them along the way regardless of their lives, but when you met the people in the hoe and treacherous hall, you immediately had murderous intentions against them, and you killed people, Zhu Lingyue, such an ungrateful thing, you are so handy, it is really impressive. ”

Zhu Lingyue was angry in his heart, but this was a fact, no matter how thick-skinned he was, it was not easy to argue, so he could only sneer: "The amount is not a gentleman, no poison and no husband, but a few lowly people, why should this governor care about their lives?" They should have been ready to give their lives for the Governor at any time. ”

Gan Hou clapped his hands and smiled: "Well said, as soon as this sentence is said, it will have the feeling of being a hero for a while." ”

At this time, Gu Liangchen and the others next door couldn't help frowning when they heard what Zhu Lingyue said.

"Ganhou, what kind of medicine are you selling in the gourd?" Zhu Lingyue frowned, "If you become a king or lose a coward, this governor has nothing to say, if you want to kill or scrape, give this governor a happy word." ”

"Sure enough, it's like death." Gan Hou said with a smile: "If you Zhu Du can do the same on the battlefield, the Tianshan Army may not lose so badly." Escaping from the battle, regardless of the life and death of tens of thousands of soldiers under his command, Zhu Du, I would like to ask, what did you think at that time? Don't you know that if you stay on the battlefield and the Tianshan army fights desperately, it may not collapse instantly, and maybe there will be a turnaround, but if the battlefield changes slightly, you will be afraid and escape in a hurry, you say beautifully, but things are really not very good. ”

"Bang!"

Zhu Lingyue got up, slapped the table, and said sharply: "Ganhou, although the governor was defeated, he can't allow you to mock the governor here." ”

Gan Hou smiled: "A person who wants to achieve the cause of the emperor can't even stand these few words? Zhu Lingyue, I always thought that you were a scholar, and your bearing was different from that of us rough warriors, but I didn't expect that after a defeat, you would reveal your temperament, and said politely, your defeat today is completely self-inflicted, with your temperament and ability, how can you plan for the world? ”

Zhu Lingyue sat down slowly, not angry, but laughing, "You are a martial artist, you can also say this, but it makes the governor impressed, it seems that after so many years, the governor still doesn't know enough about you." ”

"I don't read much, I don't know any big truths, but I have clear grievances." Gan Hou said lightly: "When the Xiliang people entered the pass, you were in the name of resisting foreign enemies, but what you did was unseemly. You came to Xiguan with the Tianshan Army, it seems to be menacing, the officials and people of Xiguan thought that you were leading the troops to resist the enemy, and our Northwest Army also misregarded you as a person at that time, and really thought that you were a hero who stood up, so he was willing to be driven by you, countless soldiers of the Northwest Army were used by you as a human wall and meat shield to resist the front line, but your Tianshan soldiers and horses were doing robber things in the rear, not only in the name of mobilizing strategic materials, robbing materials and horses everywhere in Xiguan, and transporting them to Tianshan, but also the materials allocated by the imperial court, filling their own pockets and taking them for themselves...... As a soldier, the horse leather shroud is returned, and he sacrifices himself to killing the enemy on the front line, which is nothing to say, but countless Northwest soldiers are dying of hunger and cold because of hunger and cold, and their hatred must be repaid on their behalf. ”

"I see." Zhu Lingyue sighed, "Ganhou, are you defecting to the battle, is it for those northwest soldiers?" At the beginning of the Governor's gathering of materials, it was not to fill his own pockets, but at that time, the Xiliang people were invincible, and your Northwest Army could not stop it at all, but the Governor wanted to transfer the materials and hoard the Tianshan Mountains, even if the Xiliang people occupied Xiguan, the Governor could still rely on the danger of the Tianshan Mountains to fight the Xiliang people to the end. ”

Gan Hou laughed and said: "So far, you can say these words to yourself." ”

"That's fine." Zhu Lingyue picked up the wine glass on the table, which was empty, picked up the wine jug, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all, "So far, this governor is not willing to spend more time with you." Since you want to seek justice for those northwestern soldiers, is this the reason why you betrayed the governor, the governor does not want to think about it, you can kill the governor with one knife now. He threw the wine glass in his hand on the table and said lightly: "Do it yourself or do it for others?" ”

Gan Hou gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Zhu Lingyue, it seems that you still have some backbone. But now you are still the local governor, the feudal official of Great Qin, the imperial court has not issued an order, and it is not easy for the general to kill you. ”

"Oh?" When Zhu Lingyue heard this, he burst out laughing, "Is this your words, or Chu Huan's words?" It's all at this point, and it's ridiculous that there is still the Great Qin Imperial Court. ”

"Just because you don't have Great Qin in your eyes doesn't mean that everyone has no Great Qin in their eyes." Gan Hou said slowly: "The general wanted to cut you with a knife, but Chu Du had some scruples, so he had this wine." ”

Zhu Lingyue frowned, groaned slightly, and then asked, "What the hell does Chu Huan want to do?" ”

"Chu Du just wants you to make a choice." Gan Hou picked up the wine glass and drank it all, "You have been defeated in the horse farm, and you can't pose a threat to Chu Huan, Chu Du didn't want to kill you, and your people are now in Chu Du's hands, so ...... If you want to live with your people, it's not that you can't, but there are two conditions. ”

"Conditions?" Zhu Lingyue couldn't help but ask, "What conditions?" ”

"First, you and your family must leave the northwest from now on, and you must not set foot in the northwest three steps again." Gan Hou said slowly: "To put it more bluntly, within the specified time limit, all of your Zhu Lingyue's clansmen must leave, otherwise there is only one way to die." ”

Zhu Lingyue frowned, he didn't expect Chu Huan to let him go, the ants were still stealing life, if there was a chance to escape death, Zhu Lingyue would naturally not be able to ask for it, but he still looked very calm and asked, "What about the second one?" ”

"To let you go, of course you need an excuse." Ganhou said solemnly: "You raise an army to rebel, although the court has no will, but the world knows it, if Chu Du lets you go lightly, the court will investigate it, I am afraid that there will be a lot of trouble, so there is always an excuse...... Do you see what I mean? ”

"Traitor?" Zhu Lingyue smiled indifferently and didn't argue, "What do you mean by the excuse?" ”

"You're a man of letters." Gan Hou stared at Zhu Lingyue's eyes, "For many people, literati are full of poetry and books, and they will not rebel lightly, but they are rough and martial arts, impulsive, and gather troops, so ...... The rebellion of the soldiers and horses of the Tianshan Mountains, whose heart came from, of course, can be said. If it were you, Zhu Lingyue, would be bent on rebelling, no one would be able to save you, but ...... If there were other people, after all, you, Governor Zhu, had also made military exploits, and you could not avoid a ...... death! ”
