Seven hundred and fortieth eight chapters resignation
Luo Tianbao nodded after hearing this. He still believed what the senior brother said, and immediately said: "Don't worry, senior brother, I will be even more careful."
Xiahou Suiliang seemed to have remembered something at this time, and asked: "Tianbao, now that I am asking you something, you must answer it honestly."
"You feel free to ask, as long as it does not involve court secrets, I will answer all your questions."
"Why are you doing this this time? If Master succeeds in his great cause, you will inherit all this in the future. Why do you want to extrapolate the wealth you have obtained? I have been thinking about this for several days and still can't figure it out."
Luo Tianbao couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "I guessed that you would think so, senior brother. How should I put it... First of all, I don't think your and dad's plan can succeed. Of course it is a good thing to sit back and enjoy the results, but if you steal
If you don't eat the chicken, you won't get the rice. Let's talk about the situation. We martial arts practitioners are focused on being chivalrous and righteous, punishing the evil and promoting the good. In the end, we end up putting all the people in dire straits for our own selfish desires. This is unreasonable.
, at least I can’t bear it on my own conscience, little brother.”
"But do you think that if the current imperial court continues to be in charge, the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment?"
Luo Tianbao heard this and turned to look at the door. After making sure that Xin Meng and others were not paying attention to him, he approached Xiahou Suiliang and whispered: "Senior Brother, there are no outsiders here. Our own senior brothers said privately that I don't think the current imperial court will continue."
If you take charge of your family, the world will be peaceful, and there is no guarantee that no one will take your place in the future, but it will definitely not be our family. In this case, why should we commit evil for something we know we are going to lose?"
Xiahou Suiliang looked at Luo Tianbao and couldn't help but shook his head: "Hey, sometimes I really don't know what to say about you. Call you smart because you do stupid things, but call you stupid. Master and I both fell into your trap.
In my hands, it’s really hard to figure out.”
Luo Tianbao smiled upon hearing this: "Whether you're smart or stupid, brother, I just want to be a good person."
"But good people in this world may not end well."
"As long as you have a clear conscience, success or failure can be left to fate."
When Xiahou Suiliang heard this, he smiled bitterly and stopped talking. In this way, Luo Tianbao achieved his goal. When he left, he specifically asked Changsun Qingqing and Xin Meng to take good care of Lin Yunfei's master and apprentice, and the two agreed.
After handling the affairs of Yang'an in this way, Luo Tianbao and Li Guozhong led a group of people to the capital, and then Luo Tianbao led people from there to Hezhou, Dongzhou and other places to appease them.
Li Guozhong kept trying to get close to Luo Tianbao on the way. It was obvious that he had not given up his efforts to draw Luo Tianbao into his camp. In fact, during this period, Luo Tianbao also heard about the increasingly fierce struggle between the two parties in the court, Queen Zhang and the Crown Prince.
The situation became more and more intense, especially when the prince put down the rebellion and made great achievements, and his prestige in the government and the public was increasing day by day. This made Empress Zhang feel threatened even more, and she wanted to get rid of the prince so that her son could inherit the throne.
Li Guozhong's situation inside was very delicate. On the one hand, he had a close relationship with Empress Zhang. It was he and Empress Zhang who forced the Crown Prince to abdicate and established the current emperor. But on the other hand, Li Guozhong felt that the prince was kind and easy to get along with, so
He also hopes that he can inherit the throne in the future, so he now maintains an aloof relationship with both parties. Of course, through long-term contact with Luo Tianbao, he knows that Li Guozhong's true allegiance is only to himself, no matter who he joins with, or even what his starting point is.
There is only one thing for them, which is to ensure their own interests. To be fair, Luo Tianbao doesn't like people like him. However, ironically, the more people like him, the more likely they are to be successful in the officialdom, so Luo Tianbao has no choice but to treat him like a snake.
Soon the army arrived at the capital. When Luo Tianbao entered the city, he saw that the scorched earth had now regained its vitality. Although it could not be compared with the original heyday, it now looked like a big city. The faces of pedestrians on the street
Most of them are filled with longing and hope for the future. Seeing these Luo Tianbao feels a little better. In fact, he also feels a certain amount of guilt for betraying his father and senior brother. But now seeing these Luo Tianbao feels
Everything he has done seems to be worth it, and the smiles on people's faces are what he hopes to protect.
After the army was settled, Luo Tianbao and others met with Shen Hexi, who was staying in the capital. From her, everyone got a general understanding of the court's latest announcement, the reaction of the rebel forces and the various departments of the Dongzhou Army.
Most soldiers and civilians have suffered enough from the war and are unwilling to fight anymore, so most of them are willing to accept the court's arrangements. However, there are always people who don't think so. First of all, just as Xiahou Suiliang expected, the Dongzhou Army will definitely not do it, because Xiahou Suiliang
Both masters and disciples were captured, and the Dongzhou Army was leaderless for a while, so some civil and military officials appointed Xiahou Honglie, a nephew of Xiahou Suiliang's family, to temporarily handle military and political affairs. In the name of rescuing Xiahou Suiliang, they actively expanded outwards and at the same time contacted to fight against rebellion.
The generals in the army who were dissatisfied with the imperial court acted together. Now the more troublesome ones are Li Congyun who stayed in Linzhou and Ji Baida who stayed in Jizhou.
Li Congyun was born in the rebel army. He had already criticized the Lin family and his son for joining the imperial court. He was worried that the imperial court would find fault and deal with him in the future. Moreover, the power to rebel against the rebel army was mainly in the hands of the Jindoubao group. Li Congyun felt that he had always been
Being excluded, he was dissatisfied. He had no chance to show off before, but now he felt that he had found a high-sounding excuse, so he raised troops to respond to the Dongzhou Army in the name of rescuing Lin Yunfei. The rebel army in Linzhou did not know the truth, and out of hatred for Lin Yunfei
His loyalty supported his actions.
Ji Baida's situation in Jizhou was even more complicated. He had no intention of betraying the imperial court, but as a disciple, he must have been dissatisfied with his master Lin Yunfei being put in such a situation. Therefore, facing the Dongzhou Army and Li Congyun's attempts to win over Ji Baida, he was a little shaken.
However, because Zhuge Ying, one of the four guardians, rushed back in time to dissuade him, Ji Baida has not yet made the final decision, but the situation may still change at any time.
After hearing this, Luo Tianbao felt confident. In fact, the current situation was better than he expected. In these few states alone, the army could win them even if they attacked directly. However, Luo Tianbao certainly didn't want to see his former comrades die tragically.
Therefore, he proposed to Li Guozhong that he could lead part of the army to Hezhou and negotiate with Xiahou Honglie, Li Congyun and others. If a peaceful solution could be achieved, it would be best, otherwise it would not be too late for the army to encircle the situation again.
Li Guozhong first wanted to win over Luo Tianbao and was unwilling to refute his face. Secondly, it would take time for several armies to complete the encirclement, so he agreed. In the end, Luo Tianbao rested in the capital for a day, and then took the heroes and other
His direct lineage quickly rushed to Heyang.
Originally, Hezhou was bordering the Dongzhou Army's territory. Luo Tianbao's biggest worry was that Hezhou would fall before he could reach it. In that case, the officers and soldiers would be in a very passive situation. However, Gao Ning, who stayed behind in Hezhou, performed well.
, actually withstood the Dongzhou Army's attack. When Luo Tianbao arrived in Heyang, nearly half of Hezhou's territory was still under the control of the official army.
