Chapter 281 The real murderer
"Has Xu Mu been assassinated?"
Emperor Yuhui looked annoyed and angry, and beat the dragon chair and said, "Which foolish ghost did this!"
The emperor's uncle Li Xiu was on the side and looked at Yu Jingde. The latter stepped forward and bent down and said, "Your Majesty, could it be done by the navy himself?"
When Emperor Yuhui thought about it, he suddenly realized that it made sense. When the navy did this, he had enough reason to continue to attack the court.
"It's probably because of these rebel ministers." Emperor Yuhui lamented, "In order to prevent the Qi people from going south, they delegated power to these thieves too much, and now it's hard to control them. I never thought that one day they would bully the royal family of the Tang Dynasty."
As Emperor Yuhui talked, he actually started to cry. The palace maids and eunuchs in the hall, and Li Xiu, knelt down in a hurry.
The lord is worried about the humiliation of his ministers, and the lord is killed by his ministers. The dignified emperor was forced to cry by his subordinates, which is simply sensational.
Li Xiu felt in his heart that it was inappropriate. This was simply a sign of destruction of the country. Those who have been forced to this point in the past dynasties were all the kings of destruction of the country.
But the current situation does not have to be like this. Although the navy in the court has great power, they cannot reach their hands in the vast inland, and there is still a way to do a good job.
The emperor in front of him is still too weak.
"Your Majesty, don't be shocked. Although the navy is unruly and difficult, it is far from being uncontrollable. I suggest summoning Sichuan soldiers, wolf soldiers, and Hunan soldiers to Beijing to protect Your Majesty and shock the navy."
Although Emperor Yuhui was interested in state affairs and was greedy for pleasure, he also knew that there were no strong enemies in the west and south. Although these places were remote, their troops and horses had a high combat power, so he happily agreed: "It depends on the emperor's report."
Yu Jingde's expression changed. He glanced at Li Xiu, turned his eyes and went forward and said, "Your Majesty, there are too many soldiers and horses in these three places, and they all come to Beijing. I'm afraid there are either hundreds of thousands. Even if there are food and grass, there will be no supply. The old slave suggested sending the Imperial Guard to go, selecting 20,000 capable people each, joining the Imperial Guard, and becoming the Emperor's personal soldiers."
"It's still the thoughtful thought of the fish partner."
Li Xiu laughed and said, "Master Yu, he is indeed loyal."
"Uncle Emperor, you are polite. I will be willing to smash my bones to pieces for the sake of the royal family."
"hehe."

"Has Xu Mu been assassinated?"
Zhenjiang, the Navy Governor's Office. Yuchi Xin laughed and said, "This is God's help to me."
Zhou Baiqing coughed lightly and glared at him dissatisfiedly. Only then did Yuchi Xin remember that there were still many naval generals during the meal.
Xu Mu was from a poor family in the navy. Because of his good flattery, he passed the exam and was helped up by himself and sent to the court to become a minister.
He was so happy as soon as he died, wouldn't the others feel so heartbroken?
Zhou Baiqing said in a deep voice: "The court dared to act like this, it is obvious that we didn't take us seriously. Today they dared to assassinate Xu Mu, tomorrow they dared to assassinate you, and the day after tomorrow they would kill me."
"General, you must not sit still and wait for death!"
"Yes, you can't sit still and wait for death!"
"It's better to go to Beijing and kill the rioters to clear the king's side."
......
Someone has drawn his sword in his hand and wishes he could start the war right away.
Zhou Baiqing slapped the table, and the lobby suddenly became quiet. He looked around and said loudly: "If the truth of the matter is not found out, how can you guess randomly? I dare not mention leading troops into the capital. Clearing the lord? That is called rebellion. If you have a few heads, you dare to enter the capital!"
When he said this, everyone stopped talking and quietly waited for Zhou Baiqing to give the order.
"But Xu Mu cannot die in vain. Someone must find out the real murderer and give him justice. I will send someone to the capital immediately and say that we will bring people to the capital to investigate the case ourselves. I hope Your Majesty will agree. Otherwise, I am afraid that Zhou Baiqing, the soldiers of the Navy, will not be able to suppress the anger."
He is worthy of being a general, and he speaks with great skills. It is obviously a matter of things. He always leads troops into the capital, and what he says is heroic and a bit tragic.
Zhou Baiqing stood up, raised his wine glass and shouted: "We will toast Xu Mu together for this glass of wine!"
Everyone stood up, sprinkled half of the wine in the glass, and then raised their heads and drank it all.
After drinking, Yuchi Xin clapped his hands and groups of singers and dancers came in one after another.
They were wearing gauze, and the fragrance was blowing, and the flesh was hidden.
I quickly remembered the cheerful sound of punching and shouting, and it was very lively.

Xu Mu's body has been here for a long time. The people from Dali Temple are watching tightly and not allowing anyone to get close.
He died under an arm crossbow. This thing shot from a distance with extremely poor accuracy and low power, but the advantage is that it has a fast firing speed and a large enough power at close range.
Moreover, the murderer was very decisive. All the crossbow arrows they used were covered with blood troughs. If they were not treated in time, they would be dead if they were pulled out.
"It doesn't matter who the real murderer is. What's important is who your Majesty wants the murderer." Yu Jingde said sinisterly: "You must never take advantage of the issue."
The officials present were submissive. The eunuch had extraordinary power and no one dared to offend him.
Yu Jingde slowly walked towards the wooden board with the body. He covered his nose with a handkerchief, and the turbid light in his eyes focused on Xu Mu's face.
This person used to be the most annoying thing in the court, but at this moment, everyone was upset about his death.
No wonder the emperor said that the navy killed him himself. Who would have thought of killing Xu Mu? He is just a microphone and a real puppet. What's the use of killing him?
Is it to vent my anger?
Yu Jingde shook his head. If this happened, the navy would definitely install a puppet in. He would be more hostile to the court and more difficult to deal with.
"The murderer knew the whereabouts of the court ministers, and then he withdrew without knowing it. It was probably because he had planned it." Yu Jingde bent over and said, "Would it be...what others did it?"
"Other people?" the Minister of Justice asked in confusion: "What do others mean?"
"It's okay, let's talk about it casually."
......
Li Xiu's face suddenly appeared in Yu Jingde's heart. In the hall, he actually asked His Majesty to summon barbarians into the capital, which was very contrary to the ancestor's teachings.
Although the barbarians can fight, they don’t know their loyalty. If they are controlled by someone with ulterior motives, it is equivalent to putting a sharp blade in front of His Majesty’s neck.
At the same time, in a Taoist temple in Hangzhou City, several Taoist priests were sitting on the cushion, muttering words.
Their figures are exactly the same as ordinary Taoist priests, and they will never see anything unusual.
If you look at it from a distance, you only think that they are reciting scriptures, but you will know that this is not the case when you are close.
"The latest order from Commander Gao is coming. Don't let both sides take a step back and negotiate. It is important to let the internal struggle between Nan Tang continue."
"Kill Xu Mu, but they didn't expect that they were still calm. What should we do?"
"We killed Xu Mu, which seemed to have killed the navy, but in fact we did a great help to them. Next, we should help our Yuhui Emperor."
