Chapter 189 A Man's Maybe
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the bright moon is in the sky, the clear light that blows thousands of miles shines through the window lattice into the Lingyun Tower, which is known as the first building in the capital.

The boss of Lingyun Tower stood by the corner smoking a pipe, watching the beautiful maidservants in silk and satin picking vegetables with their elegant fingers like chopping onions, but although the scene of the beauties working is eye-catching, it is not far away from them. A man who looks like a rich man has a deep and silly smile, which becomes very strange.

Today's Lingyun Building is quite different from the past.

Inside the building, hundreds of slaves are busy, but despite the large number of people, each movement is light and there is no unnecessary sound, just like a pantomime.Outside the building, dozens of men exuding a murderous aura stood with sharp weapons, their faces were cold, and they completely isolated the entire Lingyun Tower from the outside world without saying a word.

The street is full of colorful lights, but some people in ordinary clothes occupy the positions with excellent vision for a long time. They are the hidden piles responsible for the security work.

Jing Zhaoyin Liu Hui is a responsible person. Although his official position is precarious, he still sent all the troops he could dispatch, and sealed off the entire street to prevent any suspicious people from entering.

After all, the four people who are drinking in Lingyun Building at this moment are all big figures who decide the fate of Xie Kingdom!
……

……

Although it was on the first floor of the capital, compared to the magnificence of the guests, the banquet was shabby after all. Fortunately, the dishes were all top-grade, and there were many famous Confucian scholars to accompany the banquet, so the original unhappiness disappeared quickly.

The smug Xiao Zhicheng held up the luminous glass and drank the well-chilled wine.

When the first emperor was alive, he was a rare person in the royal family who didn't drink alcohol. It wasn't until he became the powerful prince that he became interested in and indulged in this fine wine that only belonged to the gods in the legend of the Western Regions under the strong recommendation of the emperor.

Compared with the slightly drunkenness he showed when he was tasting wine, Ye Chuan looked much more serious. He became more silent because of his involvement in the disappearance of the princess. Du Kang".

Today's topic must not be leaked at all.

The result of the Battle of Daxue Mountain flew back to the capital three days ago, and the news of the defeat was immediately tampered with by the important ministers. However, some unfavorable rumors began to grow wildly like weeds in the wasteland. The emperor is seriously ill... Various theories.

Some people even said convincingly that the Turks were preparing to curse the entire Central Plains!

The rumors came from the taverns in the streets, and the original source is no longer traceable.

Perhaps in order to get more drinks and rewards, the rumors were repeatedly exaggerated and absurd in the process of spreading. In the storyteller's description, the Turks even turned into eight-foot-tall monsters wearing animal skins. Believe in evil gods, drink human blood, and ride a wild wolf as tall as a horse!

But such absurd story is believed by some people, for no other reason. The most loyal audience of the storyteller are village women and fools who have never seen the world. They have never seen Turkic people, and they are ignorant and superstitious.

This is not a good signal.

There have always been voices of opposition to the Turkic war.But Emperor Xie insisted on going his own way, and the ministers could not stay. He had no choice but to carefully control the information since the war started, deliberately establish an image of invincibility in the hearts of the people, and finally successfully transferred the domestic opposition with his extremely inflated sense of national superiority. Complaints about the enormous burden of war.

However, for this excitement to continue, there must be a steady stream of victories.If the war does not end with a complete victory, the resentment bursting out of the people's sudden sobriety may even lead to an uprising!

In order to maintain this war of aggression, the Xie Dynasty was clenching its teeth, and the common people paid the price of hundreds of thousands of young and middle-aged people. Fortunately, victory, the omnipotent stimulant and anesthetic, made them forget the pain.However, if there is news of failure, they will suddenly wake up, and if someone takes the opportunity to climb up and shout——

All the people present were smart people who played politics, so they didn't know the crucial point, so during the banquet, they talked and laughed happily, but kept silent.

But some people have other thoughts.

For example, King Yan.

Because of the disappearance of the concubine, his words in the past few days were all laced with guns and sticks. After some pleasantries, he said directly to Ye Chuan: "Young Marquis has become more and more silent recently, but you feel that the burden on your shoulders is heavy and you can't hold it?"

"Eating the king's salary, worrying about the king's worries, the law and order in the capital is not stable, so I naturally have no peace day and night."

Ye Chuan said calmly, he knew that King Yan had the heart of disobedience, and he deliberately provoked him at this moment, but he didn't tear his face, so he still had to act respectful.

"It's really not peaceful... Even the guards of the Hou's Mansion were killed with one blow. This capital...there is no safety at all."

King Yan said with a blank face, causing the accompanying guests to say that although they had the same worries in their hearts, but seeing Shaohou's gloomy face, they were too frightened to speak up.

It was the King of Wei who stood up and said respectfully: "Uncle Huang's words are wrong. Those Xiaoxiao people have planned for a long time and used despicable methods. The guards of the Ye family will inevitably be defeated if they are attacked one-on-one on the battlefield. Now, who else is as elite as the Ye family?"

Even the king of Liang stopped his rosary and said, "Yes, there are many doubts in this matter, and it is too much to blindly blame your son-in-law."

It's just that although King Liang's tone was modest and gentle, when he uttered the word "son-in-law", most of the people in the hall felt a chill creeping up their spines.

Ye Chuan is indeed King Liang's son-in-law, but this daughter is a righteous daughter, who forced him to send his own flesh and blood to the Taoist temple.If there is no complaint, it is impossible.

Ye Chuan also knew that King Liang's "son-in-law" had no good intentions, but the situation forced him to bear it, and he forced a fake smile on his face and said, "Your Highness is absolutely right. After that day, Zhuo Jing and I have also discussed several times, and we are sure that the robbers may have other plans, so they should not hurt the princess."

"But these are all your speculations. So far, there is no news of the two princesses. How can you teach me to feel at ease?"

Yan Wang was talking aggressively, and was about to attack, but suddenly there was an unnatural twitch at the corner of his mouth, and it stopped!
"Forget it, everyone has disappeared, and it's superfluous to argue whose responsibility it is. Let's get back to business."

"Brother Huang is able to think about it, it's really rare." Liang Wang said not without praise, he has devoted himself to cultivating Taoism these years, and he has become more and more immortal.

"Based on the current intelligence, the defeat of Daxue Mountain did not harm the overall situation of the Northern Expedition, but was deliberately played by people with intentions to undermine the morale of the army and the people."

"Oh?" Ye Chuan glanced at King Liang in surprise, and asked curiously, "Could it be that Your Highness has some other news?"

"There is no news, but I accidentally know a little more than you. I heard that His Majesty intends to use the Turkic royal city to be buried with His Highness the Queen."

Ye Chuan's face suddenly darkened, and King Wei and King Yan also had their own flashes.The accompanying guests couldn't help whispering!

That ridiculous battle report is actually true!
The battle of conquering the royal city was a disastrous loss. His Majesty used the bones of hundreds of thousands of soldiers to build a ladder as high as the city wall, and only then did he conquer the city of the Turkic people's thousand-year belief.Even the craziest and most radical supporters of the Northern Expedition, when they saw the battle report, they thought of His Majesty, is he crazy?The fall of Wangcheng will happen sooner or later, there is no need to attack by force at a price of [-].

But at this moment, knowing the reason for His Majesty's crazy move, they were unable to utter a single word.

　Don’t think I’m bloody, the historical archetypes of Xiao Zhiqian and Ye Wurong are even crazier than what I wrote, getting close to the world is only for you, I don’t need to live even if you die (MS is drinking hard and taking antidepressant herbal medicine to drug poisoning, In a sense, it can be classified as slow suicide), novels will never be as bloody as history
