Reborn General's Concubine: The First Poisonous Concubine

869. Chapter 869 Consolidation of soldiers 8

Chen Rui was stunned for a moment. Even though the King of Luoyang did not say it clearly, he also vaguely understood something from the King of Luoyang's words. Wei Zijin supported the King of Luoyang to do this!

Of course he knew that Wei Zijin was not a woman raised in the boudoir, otherwise she would not have chosen to leave him, and later went to the battlefield in person...

But he still didn't expect that she had such ambition!

Seeing Chen Rui stunned for a moment, Xiao Jingyao knew that he was indeed shocked, patted his shoulder, and smiled and advised: "Brother Chen, I know that you are a loyal minister, but this emperor is worth it. It is not worth your loyalty to this. I believe that you have your own decision... Brother Chen, you are a rare talent. The people of Dayin need you, and I also need you. I hope you can think carefully!”

Having said that, Xiao Jingyao didn't have to say anything more, so he turned around and left.

Just as Xiao Jingyao opened the door, Chen Rui's voice came from behind again, still so firm and stubborn.

"Mr. Chen thanks the prince for his respect and for helping him twice. However, even if Chen dies, he cannot be blamed for his crime of deceiving the king and conspiring with the traitors. Please ask the prince to take back those words!"

Xiao Jingyao seemed to have known that Chen Rui was not easily persuaded by him. He was not angry at all when he heard the four words "rebellious ministers and thieves". He shook his head and smiled faintly, and said quietly: "I am not in a hurry, I believe that Brother Chen will one day. , will change your mind..."

After Xiao Jingyao said that, he pushed the door and his figure gradually disappeared from Shen Rui's sight.

The guards guarding outside the house still did not leave. The maid who had retreated before was worried that Chen Rui would catch a cold, so she quickly closed the door and also blocked Chen Rui's gaze from looking outside the house.

Chen Rui sat back on the soft collapse and sighed heavily. Even the maid called him down a few times without realizing it. His mind was already in chaos.

This is definitely not the result he wants...

He and his ministers wrote a memorial to the emperor, asking the emperor to kill the treacherous ministers to ask the king to withdraw his troops. He never expected that the King of Luoyang had already been dissatisfied with the emperor and would not withdraw his troops just because the treacherous ministers were killed?!

What the King of Luoyang said is reasonable, and the King of Luoyang chose to do this because the emperor had long been determined to kill, but as long as the emperor was still on the throne for one day, the King of Luoyang would be rebelling...

But he was already disappointed with the emperor in his heart, but he never thought of betraying the king!

On one hand, it is loyal to the monarch and the lord and righteousness that has not been repaid, so it is difficult to achieve both!

If I had known that I was facing such a dilemma, I might have been better off dying in prison!

Chen Rui couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, slowly closing his eyes, hoping that this was a dream...

However, the sound of the trumpet in the city woke him from his dream. Chen Rui rose from the soft couch, almost pulled the maid who served him, and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong? Why do you have to do this in five Is the horn sounding in the evening?”

The sky was still not bright, and the maid lit the candlelight, put on a warm cloak for Chen Rui, and then explained in a low voice: "This is the soldiers under the prince's command ready to break through Qiaocheng!"

Chen Rui frowned slightly: "Who is standing by Qiaocheng?"

"Wu Bing, who was named the general of the rebellion by the emperor!"

When Chen Rui heard this, he fell into silence again.

The young Wu Bing did not have much experience. It was just a coincidence that he defeated King Xiao Ji, the King of Yiyang without fighting, and Xiao Ji underestimated the enemy...
