Chapter 648 Lin Shuai's Kindness

"There have been rumors recently, saying that a change in the palace not long ago, Your Majesty had murderous intentions towards Your Highness and dispatched an imperial guard to siege and kill Your Highness. The Majesty was very shocked when he heard the news, but it was difficult to tell whether it was true or false. This time we entered the capital, the Majesty ordered us to visit Your Highness. I wonder if such horrible rumors are true or false. Did the Palace really kill your Highness?"

The only two of them were left in the hall. Mo Bai was straight to the point, and Chu Ruocai didn't hide it anymore and went straight to the point.

Mo Bai's expression was calm, his eyes fell on Chu Ruocai's face, and he was still thinking about his purpose for this. He did not answer, but asked back: "Ship Lin hopes that this matter is true or false?"

Chu Ruocai's face turned solemn and immediately said, "The General of the Communist Party of China certainly does not want this to happen. From the overall perspective, our top priority at present is to fight against the Flag Barbarians. Flag Barbarians are coming in a fierce manner. At this time, we must try our best to unite all forces and resist the invasion together. How can we kill each other?"

Mo Bai smiled when he heard this, and said without comment, "Ship Lin really thinks so?"

"Of course, our Southern Army has always advocated that all forces should temporarily put aside their grudges and fight against the flag barbarians together. For this reason, it took the initiative to propose and actively promoted the joint anti-barbarians." Chu Ruocai looked righteous and said loudly.

Mo Bai glanced at him, his face calmly said, "Since that's the case, what explanation should be given to the Southern Army sending troops to occupy the six cities of Xijiang Province when the previous emperor was in great destruction?"

It can be seen that Chu Ruocai was well prepared and opened his mouth and said, "Our Southern Army sent troops to the six cities of Xijiang Province, which is not forcibly occupying the city of the State Council. Instead, we are helping the State Council suppress the rebellion, waiting for the State Council to maintain stability, and having the ability to ensure that there is no problem in Xijiang Province and not affecting the joint anti-barbarism, we will naturally withdraw our troops."

"So that's the case. That's because I misunderstood. Now the new king is about to ascend the throne, and the order of the state dynasty has been restored. He has the ability to ensure the stability of Xijiang Province. When will the Southern Army retreat?" Mo Bai did not refute and followed his words.

"Your Highness doesn't know that the situation in Xijiang is very complicated. We also want to withdraw our troops as soon as possible, but it may not be possible for the time being." Chu Ruocai shook his head.

As he said that, he looked at Mo Bai, and said solemnly: "After investigation, the rebellion of the six cities in Xijiang Province was not accidental, but some generals were bribed by Qiman in the six cities. The rebellion of these six cities was the work of Qiman. The situation is very difficult now, and we have reason to suspect that there are probably more people hiding in the dark. If we retreat rashly now, if Xijiang Province is in chaos, Qiman will definitely be prepared to be prepared for our Southern Army. If we want to help the National Dynasty suppress it, we may not be able to catch it."

"You can't mention the matter of sending troops before. But now the state has maintained stability, and the matters in Xijiang Province should be handled by the state itself. Even if there is really a rebellion, it is still the matter of the state." Mo Bai was not angry, and his tone was still calm.

"Your Highness, the Xijiang River is no better than other provinces. Our Nanyue and Xijiang River are bordered by each other. Once there is a problem with the Xijiang River, the first thing that affects our Nanjun, which can be said to be life and death, and it is all in it. Especially this time, we destroyed the conspiracy of the flag barbarians, and they will inevitably retaliate against us. If the state cannot ensure that there is no problem with the Xijiang Province, we really dare not withdraw our troops." Chu Ruocai smiled bitterly.

After saying that, we brought out the banner of joint anti-barbarians: "Our Southern Army own life and death is small, but the purpose of the Banners disrupting the hinterland of our country's dynasty is clear at a glance. They are to make the country's dynasty unstable and restrain our full efforts to resist the barbarians. At this time, our Southern Army has no choice. Even if we endure some rumors, in order to fight against the barbarians, we can only temporarily guard the Xijiang River."

This is the public reason given by the Southern Army to occupy the six cities of Xijiang.

It was not that they did not retreat, but that they asked the state to ensure that there would be no chaos in Xijiang before they retreated. But with their Lin clan in the Southern Army, how could Xijiang not suffer any chaos in Xijiang?

Even under their arrangement, the local people in the six cities burned, killed and looted very much during the rebellion. The Southern Army entered the city to suppress the rebellion, so their favor for the Southern Army was far greater than that of the National Dynasty.

At that time, the State Administration asked the Southern Army to return the city, but the people even petitioned together and took the initiative to ask the Southern Army to stay.

Chu Ruo saw Mo Bai silent and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The Six Cities South Army had already obtained the hand and it would never be possible to return it.

Before, they were always on guard against the Ming King's rise to the country. Although they were not afraid, they were always on guard. But from beginning to end, the Ming King did not interfere in this matter.

Now that he looked at the expression of King Ming, Chu Ruo felt relieved. It seemed that King Ming knew that no matter what, he would not return to the six cities.

Mo Bai did not say more, but nodded and said, "What you said is not unreasonable. Whether it is for the sake of anti-barbarism or for your own safety, you should be cautious."

When Chu Ruocai heard this, he was stunned. He didn't expect Mo Bai to suddenly say this.

He didn't even believe this statement himself. The Ming King seemed to be really touched by his words?

After a moment of pause, a strange flashed in Chu Ruocai's eyes, and he smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your understanding!"

Mo Bai still did not refute his words, but said seriously: "I am not an unreasonable person, and I am never vague about the issue of resisting barbarians. As long as I am truly resisting barbarians, no matter whether they are enemies or friends, I have always opened the door to convenience."

Chu Ruochu quickly stood up to thank him, his eyes even more strange.

Mo Bai waved his hand and signaled him to sit down.

Instead of talking immediately, he lowered his head and thought about something.

Chu Ruocai didn't know what he was thinking and didn't dare to ask. He was thinking about Mo Bai's strange attitude today. After all, he didn't think Mo Bai really believed his words.

Could it be that after King Ming and the palace had a falling out, they realized their situation, so they deliberately showed goodwill to their Southern Army in order to get the support of the Southern Army?

Chu Ruocai thought about it over and over again, and only this possibility can explain the attitude of Ming Wang today.

Thinking of this, Chu Ruo's eyes lit up. If this is the case, then his trip today will be much smoother.

Chu Ruo coughed lightly, spoke again, and pulled the topic back to the previous one, saying: "The General and His Highness both have the same opinions on the fight against the barbarians. Therefore, after hearing about the palace change, the General was very angry at that time and immediately prepared to rush to help His Highness. However, when he received the news, his Highness had already come out of the palace safely, but the General was still concerned about this matter and ordered us to come to Beijing to see His Highness this time to find out the truth or falsehood of the rumors."

Mo Bai knew that Lin's main topic was coming, so he replied positively: "The rumors are true and false, but the matter about the attack on me in the palace is true. The imperial guards were sent to siege and kill them that day." Mo Bai nodded and said lightly.

"What happened?" Chu Ruocai was "shocked": "What happened? Why did Your Majesty ignore the overall situation and attack Your Highness?"

"Is the reason important?" Mo Bai glanced at him and asked.

Chu Ruo suddenly realized that Mo Bai didn't want to tell the reason, and thought to himself, could it be really related to the love and hatred between the Empress Dowager and Concubine Lan? Therefore, even the Ming King had to be taboo and could not say it.

"Of course, no matter what the reason is, at the critical moment of foreign enemies invading and the state of the country, Your Majesty should not have murderous intentions at Your Highness." Chu Ruo's face suddenly turned solemn and he hurriedly expressed his attitude.

Mo Bai said directly: "Stop going around the corner, just say it, your general asked you to meet me, what's wrong?"

"The main purpose is to confirm the authenticity of this matter. The Grandmaster told him that if the matter is taken seriously, even if His Highness escapes this disaster, his situation will become worse and worse. Since the palace has taken action regardless of everything, if it fails once, there will be a second time. The Grandmaster reminds His Highness to be careful."

Mo Bai just said, "That's all?"

Seeing that he was not interested, Chu Ruochi had to cough again and said, "Mr. General Secretary, I will tell His Highness that for the sake of the overall situation, our Southern Army will not sit idly by. After the rumors of the Palace Break came out, the Marshal took the initiative to contact the other generals and wanted to join forces with other parties to put pressure on the new king. We must not let the new king be so unscrupulous. We must not let the new king dare not to commit murderous intentions."

This time Mo Bai's expression changed slightly, but he stared at Chu Ruocai, with obvious disbelief in his eyes: "This is a strange thing. The Southern Army cares so much about my life?"

"It's not just for Your Highness, but also for the barbarians..." Chu Ruocai said solemnly again.

But before he finished speaking, Mo Bai was impatient: "You Chu Ruo can only be famous all over the world, so you shouldn't be so superficial. I will save face for your Southern Army. If you really think that I can't tell the difference between the crow and the phoenix? Don't always talk about the anti-barbarians. If I was so easy to bully, I would be my turn to come to play with you. I'm afraid I've been dead for many years. Don't make up for these things anymore. If you want to talk about things, you should show your attitude."

Chu Ruo's face suddenly froze. He didn't say anything for a while. Finally, he had to smile bitterly and apologize: "Your Highness is wise, how dare you offend me?"

"Talk the serious matter!" Mo Bai looked out the door, obviously very impatient.

"Of course, we cannot deny that the reason for supporting Your Highness is not only for the anti-barbarism considerations, but also for the strategic position of the Southern Army. In addition, in terms of the personal feelings of the Grand Marshal, the Grand Marshal does not want His Highness to really have an accident. The Princess has always been the pearl in the hands of the Grand Marshal. If something happens to His Highness, the Princess will probably not be spared. Therefore, please believe that the Grand Marshal is sincere in his consideration of His Highness's safety and sincerely wants to help His Highness."

Chu Ruocai didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. After saying that, seeing that Mo Bai finally didn't interrupt him, he continued: "The Grand Marshal has contacted several other men to persuade them to put pressure on the new king together, but the other men..."

As he said that, Chu Ruocai looked at Mo Bai with some embarrassment, as if he had something to say.

"Just what?" Mo Bai knew the good show was coming, and asked in a quiet voice.

Chu Ruocai pretended to be hesitant and said, "The other generals said that it is okay to put pressure on Your Majesty, but Your Highness wants to agree to allocate some of the Taoist power to..."
