Chapter 1420: I want you to be in a dilemma
Wei Chenglong was originally worshipped by the Royal Family of the Great Chu. He and Sun Zelong were the confidants of Min Ruoying who were extremely trusted. For most of the time earlier, he served as Min Ruoying's personal bodyguard and was free to leave the palace. Although he was not famous, he had great power. The execution of Min Ruoying's eldest brother Min Ruocheng was carried out specifically by these two people.
Now both of them were released by Min Ruoying and served as generals in the Emperor's personal army, Fire Phoenix Army. The Fire Phoenix Army did not have a commander, but was personally led by the Emperor. The two generals on the left and right are now Wei Chenglong and Sun Zelong.
The Fire Phoenix Army is divided into two larger parts. One is stationed in the military camp outside the city and is responsible for the defense of the outside of the capital. This part has as many as 40,000 people, led by Sun Zelong, and the other part is stationed in the city to protect the safety of the inner city. This team is led by Wei Chenglong.
The Lei Wei made a lot of noise tonight, especially at the last moment, countless inner guards galloped in the capital without any concealment, which naturally alarmed Wei Chenglong. When he learned that Lei Wei had actually captured Guo Jiuling, he was shocked.
No matter how rich his imagination was, he never expected such a thing to happen. Did the Mingren be so arrogant now?
It was already three o'clock, and the palace had already closed down. Most people, including Lei Wei, could not enter and exit the palace, but Wei Chenglong was different. After receiving the news and confirming on the spot that it was Guo Jiuling, he immediately left a team of elite soldiers to help Lei Wei guard Guo Jiuling, and he went straight to the palace with his horse.
Wei Chenglong was close to the emperor and knew many inside stories that others did not know. A long time ago, Guo Jiuling supported Min Ruoying. As the deputy commander of the inner guard who was a soldier, Guo Jiuling even recognized Min Ruoying's enterprising national policy and tried to unify the world. At that time, Guo Jiuling clearly supported Min Ruoying. But in fact, Guo Jiuling was just a useful chess piece in Min Ruoying's hand. In that incident, he became a chess piece that attracted everyone's attention, and another deputy commander, Yang Yi, was the key to success or failure.
In the end, Min Ruoying successfully overthrew the prince Min Ruocheng and replaced him, but Yang Yi, the two deputy commanders of the inner guard, disappeared, and Guo Jiuling's martial arts cultivation was almost all abandoned.
After Min Ruoying ascended the throne, he still placed Guo Jiuling among the inner guards as a deputy commander of the shorts, and let Yang Qing command the inner guards. Just after everyone thought that Guo Jiuling would die in obscurity, Min Ruoying's plan was finally exposed. Although not many people knew, no one knew them was ordinary.
It was at this time that Guo Jiuling disappeared.
At that time, Min Ruoying didn't care much about this matter. From his perspective, it was worthy of him to put Guo Jiuling, who had supported him, in the position of deputy commander of the inner guard. In that incident, the whole world was his pawn, so Guo Jiuling was naturally not surprised.
The only thing he was wrong was that Guo Jiuling was a soldier and had been in the army for a long time. Zuo Lixing, An Ruhai, and Guo Jiuling were all old comrades-in-arms who had a very strong friendship during the Min Wei period. The demise of the Western Army made Guo Jiuling feel heartbroken and blamed himself.
Time passed like this, when Guo Jiuling's name appeared in front of Min Ruoying again, he was already the leader of the Eagle Nest. Under his leadership, the Eagle Nest began to emerge.
It was from that time that Guo Jiuling became the person Min Ruoying hated very much.
Later, the forces of the Eagle Nest expanded their power like snowballs. Not to mention the inner guards of the Great Chu, even the ghost of Qi was forced to breathe by this emerging spy agency, and Min Ruoying's hatred for Guo Jiuling increased day by day.
Wei Chenglong knew very clearly that Guo Jiuling was one of the top three people on Min Ruoying's list of must-killers.
In Min Ruoying's heart, Guo Jiuling is a shameful betrayer.
Min Ruoying cannot be regarded as a foolish monarch. On the contrary, even if his diligence is placed on the history of the Great Chu, he is sure. When he heard that Wei Chenglong had something urgent to ask for him, he had just lie down and stepped up and got up. He knew what kind of person Wei Longlong was. Now, he, who is responsible for the internal defense of the entire Shangjing City, said that it was something urgent, so there would definitely be no moisture.
"Your Majesty, Guo Jiuling is arrested." Wei Chenglong said in a hurry before he even had time to salute Min Ruoying.
"What did you say?" Min Ruoying fell into dullness for a short moment, but then she quickly reacted, rushed to Wei Chenglong like a wind, grabbed his shoulder, and her face flushed in an instant. "Who did you think was arrested?"
"Guo Jiuling. Commander of the Eagle Nest of Ming Kingdom, Guo Jiuling." Wei Chenglong said affirmatively: "Lei Wei, the deputy commander of the inner guard, was ordered by His Majesty to sweep away the Ming Kingdom spies in the capital. He found Guo Jiuling's traces in a secret stronghold. After a fierce battle, Guo Jiuling was captured alive. The last general has already confirmed it, and it is indeed Guo Jiuling himself."
Min Ruoying laughed to the sky, "God has eyes, God has eyes, hahaha, finally let you fall into my hands. Wei Chenglong, immediately bring people to me. I want to see with my own eyes what this betrayer looks like now. I want him to live, die, and regret that he has gone to this world."
He walked around the house excitedly: "Come on, bring me someone."
"Your Majesty, Lei Wei seriously injured him during the fierce battle with him. His condition is not very good now." Wei Chenglong reminded.
"Doctor Xuan is coming to the palace to wait for his orders. How can he let him die? I will definitely not let him die so easily." Min Ruoying laughed and ordered the eunuch who was serving him.
"Your Majesty, do you want to notify the Prime Minister?" Wei Chenglong hesitated for a moment and then asked.
Guo Jiuling is not an ordinary person. He is a minister that Qin Feng trusts very much and one of the core figures of the Ming Dynasty. However, he is not just a betrayer from Min Ruoying's mouth. If such a person falls into the hands of Chu in this form, the matter behind it is absolutely not simple. If one does not do it well, a war between the two sides will be immediately launched.
Min Ruoying took a long breath and tried hard to suppress the ecstasy in her heart. Wei Chenglong's reminder made him react. He thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, you send someone to inform all the ministers to enter the palace."
Guo Jiuling was carried into the palace.
Following the familiar road, he once again entered the palace where he had served for almost most of his life in this way, which made him feel deeply moved.
In this, he left behind sweat, laughter, and countless pains.
Now, at the last moment of his life, he has returned here again.
In the empty hall, the stretcher was placed in the center. Min Ruoying carried her hands on her back and looked down at Guo Jiuling lying on the stretcher.
Wei Chenglong, who personally sent the person in, saw this, waved his hand and quietly retreated with Lei Wei and others.
Guo Jiuling looked at him with a smile: "Your Highness, how can you be safe?"
"I am the Emperor of Great Chu." Min Ruoying said coldly.
"I don't admit it!" Guo Jiuling said word by word. "Treading the blood of tens of thousands of brothers in the Western Army, Min Ruoying, dreaming of it at midnight, have those soldiers who died in vain come to ask for your life?"
"My destiny depends on the heaven, and I am the destiny of heaven. How could I be afraid of these ghosts and ghosts?" Min Ruoying said: "If they dare to come to me, I will kill them again."
"What a destiny to be born." Guo Jiuling laughed: "You open your eyes and see what the Great Chu is like now? During the reign of the Emperor, the Great Chu was so powerful, with many soldiers and generals, civil and military people returning to their hearts, and the people were rich. The people sighed. What is it now? What is it like now? Far from defeat abroad, wars are everywhere in China, people are living in poverty, and the Chu State is in danger, and the collapse is imminent. Min Ruoying, the Emperor spent decades of hard work, and countless wise men have worked hard to create a rich Chu State. In your hands, it has been ruined to such an extent in just ten years. Do you have the attitude to see the Emperor after death?"
"You traitors who have no face to see the former emperor are you traitors." Min Ruoying was angry and embarrassed. "It is you traitors who have made the Great Chu difficult now, but everything will change. Guo Jiuling, look, aren't you just falling into my hands now? This is the decree given to me by God. The revival of the Great Chu is just around the corner."
"The dream of Huang Liang has not yet woken up." Guo Jiuling sneered. "It won't take long to become the king of the fallen country of Great Chu."
"I will let you see how my Great Chu revived." Min Ruoying smiled ferociously: "Guo Jiuling, you are determined to anger me because you want to die quickly, hehehe, it's not so easy. I will let the best doctor treat you and make you feel good. Then cut off a few pieces of your flesh every day. I will cut you into pieces and kill you for five or ten years."
"Let's wait and see." Guo Jiuling was unmoved: "But I think it's certain that you can't do it."
"If you fall into my hands, you can't die even if you want to die." Min Ruoying laughed. "If you want to live, you can't live even if you want to live. Is the Imperial Doctor, has the Imperial Doctor come?"
Outside the palace, the imperial physician who rushed over quickly shouted: "Your Majesty, I am here to wait for the order."
Min Ruoying walked out of the hall and said, "I want him to live that person in the hall."
"Yes, he will definitely be alive." The imperial physician nodded repeatedly, carried the medicine box, and quickly walked into the hall.
Min Ruoying looked at Lei Wei, "You did a good job in this matter. From now on, you will be the leader of the inner guard. Lei Wei, don't let my expectations for you, rectify the inner guard, and show your strength again. I want the Ming spies in the territory of Great Chu, and there is nowhere to hide."
