Chapter 1956 Darkness Before Dawn (2)
Speaking of this, Mo Chenbo patted the armrest of the chair, "Sir, it sounds nice. This is loyalty to the Ming Dynasty, but it is not nice. This is a coup... This is a rebellion... I am sorry for many people anymore... How can I not worry too much?!"
Zhang Guowei's face was gloomy, and he let out a sigh of relief, "Young Master, please be careful not to be impatient... What basis do you have? It is said that the prince has noticed this matter... As far as Zhang knows, the prince has issued the order to supervise the country at this time. All the troops in Jiangnan, including the imperial army, are advancing north... If the prince really notices, he should keep his troops and then quickly rush back to Hangzhou Prefecture to deal with it... That is, there will be no unstable rear, and he will still be directed north."
Xiong Rulin nodded, agreeing with Zhang Guowei's analysis, and said, "President Zhang's words are reasonable... The coup in the Great Princess failed to enter Beijing, and His Majesty's death has eliminated the prince's suspicion about the royal family. Fang Guoan's rebellion has further relieved the prince's doubts about the previous Grand Princess' departure from Hangzhou Prefecture... What reason or speculation does he have to suspect that we are going to do something? Besides, there are Song An and Changlin Wei in Hangzhou Prefecture... At least so far, the soldiers of the palace have not discovered that Changlin Wei is in the city... Well, even if Changlin Wei already knows, it just hides and does not send... Then, when King Lu ascends the throne, everything will be settled... The prince knows, what's the matter?"
Mo Chenbo couldn't sit still anymore. He became excited and stood up and pointed at Xiong Rulin and shouted: "Don't forget... He has two hundred thousand tiger and wolf troops in his hand!"
A trace of contempt flashed in Xiong Rulin's eyes, and he looked down on Mo Chenbo in front of him.
In Xiong Rulin's opinion, this is a shameless villain.
The Mo family is just a family of merchants. If it weren't for sending their daughter to the royal palace and relying on the protection of the King of Wu, how could they roar and point fingers in front of his government envoy?
What's more, the prince is not bad to the Mo family. For the sake of his family property, he didn't know... he betrayed the prince, bah...!
Xiong Rulin spat in his heart.
Zhang Guowei from the side advised: "Young Master, don't worry... Although we did...ah, it is no different from treason, but our original intention is also for the sake of the people in the world... For the long-term stability of the world, peace for all ages... It is a truth that is not right, but what the prince imagines is not the right way... The sages have indeed said that the people are the most important, the country is the next, and the king is the least, but that is an attitude... It is not really necessary to provide for the people... Then what will happen? How can the government let the herders...?"
Mo Chenbo interrupted without hesitation: "Mr. Zhang doesn't have to tell me this... I just want to know that if the prince is prepared, you can have a solution to it... I don't want to die, and I die in the sound of curses!"
Xiong Rulin frowned and said, "Then tell me...where do you think your doubts come from?"
Mo Chenbo slowly sat back, "...Today, I went to see my father and revealed to my father that the King of Lu had arrived ashore..."
"You!" Xiong Rulin stood up suddenly, pointed at Mo Chenbo angrily, and cursed, "The priest is not enough to make a plan... can he tell Mr. Mo about this?"
Zhang Guowei was also shocked, but he did not get angry, but asked anxiously: "What did Mr. Mo... say?"
Mo Chenbo was stunned by Xiong Rulin's expression, and he said, "I'm thinking... King Lu has already arrived ashore, only one step away from ascending the throne... First, we will explore my father's words, and second, we will also want to bring my father in... to help us!"
"Bastard!" Xiong Rulin roared angrily, "How can Mr. Mo be as shameless as you!"
This was so cruel that Mo Chenbo rolled up his sleeves and cursed back angrily: "I am shameless... Is it shameful for you, Lord Xiong?... The prince has given you great support for you over the years and entrusts you with heavy responsibilities... But what about you, are you also treasoning behind your back... Xiong Rulin, you are fifty steps laughing and hundreds of steps!"
OK, the hall is in chaos now.
"Pa" Zhang Guowei struggled to break the teacup beside him, and the crisp sound made all the sounds quiet.
Zhang Guowei slowly stood up and walked to Xiong Rulin, "You and I plan together, not for the sake of their own selfish interests, but for the welfare of the people of the world... Supporting King Lu is to follow the beautiful things of the way of heaven. If you and I have different bodies and heads, there will be no regrets!"
Xiong Rulin took a deep breath, lowered his head and slowly retreated to sit down.
Zhang Guowei turned to Mo Chenbo and looked at him coldly.
Mo Chenbo was a little scared, his body was trembling.
"If you are afraid, it is not too late to withdraw at this time... Go back and confess everything to Mr. Mo, and then Mr. Mo pleads with the prince for you. With the prince's nature, he will not kill you..."
Mo Chenbo did hesitate at this time, and his father also said that he could save his life by doing nothing.
But Mo Chenbo is unwilling to accept it. It’s okay for my father to be here, but why is my father old? If one day he let go, the huge industry will be handed over to others... No! People die for money, birds die for food, so we should fight for it!
Mo Chenbo's eyes became firm and bowed to Zhang Guowei: "President Zhang forgives his crime... Xiaomin is just in a hurry, I hope he won't blame him!"
Then he turned to Xiong Rulin and bowed to the courtesy, "The common people are rude and offend the adults... I also ask the adults to punish them!"
Seeing that Mo Chenbo was surrendering, Zhang Guowei signaled to Xiong Rulin.
Xiong Rulin snorted, his face gradually cleared.
"Let me tell you...How did Mr. Mo react?" Zhang Guowei urged.
"... My father didn't seem surprised at all when he heard this... In his words, he revealed that as long as I don't do anything next, I can save my life!"
Mo Chenbo still took some care of it and did not say the second half of Mo Obsessed.
Zhang Guowei's face changed a few times. He turned his head and looked at Xiong Rulin, and nodded slightly.
Back at the seat, Zhang Guowei thought for a while, then looked up and said, "The eldest young master of the Mo family is right... There is indeed something wrong with this matter. Perhaps... the prince really predicts that we will do something!"
As soon as these words came out, the faces of more than ten people in the hall changed suddenly.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Xiong...what should I do?" The speaker is one of the top ten shareholders of Jiangnan businessmen. "If the prince rushes his troops to return to the south... I'm afraid it will be burned!"
There was chaos in the hall.
Xiong Rulin slapped the table and shouted: "What are you panic... I die for the country and the ancestral temple, what I want!"
"Mr. Xiong... you got what you want, but we are different... I don't want to die yet!"
Xiong Rulin's eyes were spitting fire.
Zhang Guowei shouted: "Now I'm just guessing... Don't mess up your own situation first... In this way, you can go back first, and make a decision tomorrow after I discuss with you all!"
The people in the hall were silent. Look at me and I look at you.
Then, with a "coaxing" sound, he snatched the door and left.
Looking at this situation, Xiong Rulin smiled bitterly, "Brother Yu Xie, you and I are now planning a business with such people..."
Zhang Guowei shook his head and smiled bitterly, "The prince is amazing... In just a few years, people's hearts have become like this... Looking around, I'm afraid that no one will be willing to serve the Ming Dynasty except you and me, Brother Xisheng and more than a dozen others...!"
Mo Chenbo kept huddling behind. After hearing what Zhang Guowei said, he was not convinced, so he walked out slowly and said hesitantly: "...Isn't this? I still have me..."
Xiong Rulin and Zhang Guowei looked at each other, shook their heads and were speechless.
