C45 Squirrel rebellion

Wei Yutian was unconscious. Although he had consumed too much energy, his life wasn't in danger. However, after he regained consciousness this time, the energy in his body would definitely be able to suck him dry and thin.

The end of the war, be it for the citizens or the warriors of the two nations, was a matter to be congratulated on. No matter what, the death due to bloodshed was not the best solution to the conflict and desire.

After all, Qin Yong could not sign the agreement for the An Wan Country, so he and Nan Jifu could only reach an oral consensus.

There were many things that he needed to report to Nan Jifu in order for him to truly repent. The matter that caught his attention the most was naturally the crime of framing General Sun Linhu.

"Uncle, nephew is guilty, please punish me!"

"You have indeed committed many crimes. Let's talk about it after we return to Jinnan City!"

"No, while General Qin Yong is here, I have to return General Sun Linhu's innocence first."

Lin Jingquan knelt on the ground. He was sincerely repenting, even if it meant death.

Nan Jifu did not speak. He also felt guilty towards Sun Linhu, he had never truly trusted him back then either. However, the other party had always been loyal to him.

Soon after, Lin Jingquan and Qin Yong completely explained the entire sequence of events, and finally restored Sun Linhu's innocence. They also decided to recuperate at General Sun's tomb and properly nurture his descendants.

After everything was over, Qin Yong first returned to the Huyue City, and a few days later, he directly led the remaining fifty thousand odd soldiers back there. However, Qin Yong also knew that if he went back this time, he would be in trouble. Not only did he not take down a city, he had even lost over forty thousand soldiers' lives.

Nan Jifu very quickly reassembled himself and went back to the Jinnan City. After that, he announced that he would study the Xiang Mu Country and the Chuan He Country, and remain neutral in this chaotic world, believing that the people would benefit the entire nation. There were no martial generals within the city, so there were naturally no objections.

As for Wei Yutian, he was in a coma for a long time. During this time, he had also arranged for a maid to take good care of him.

Wei Yutian who had gone mad with Daoist Cha had already been taken care of by someone, and then quietly disappeared. However, in reality, he was secretly observing the other party's situation. He hoped that the other party would be treated well in the future and recover his consciousness. At that time, he would truly be able to follow them.

The next ten days were peaceful and peaceful until Jin Nan Country led his troops back to their country. Then, everything changed.

Your Majesty, this subject is truly puzzled, why did you give up on the West Qin Country that we painstakingly captured with our own blood?

Hu Xiong was originally an extremely loyal general who wasn't ambitious at all. After entering the Great General's position, he didn't even need to be renowned for a thousand years, and he was completely in the state of being wherever Nan Jifu pointed at.

That was why when he heard that Nan Jifu wanted to give up the Western Qin Empire, he did not have a good control over his fiery personality and actually spoke out against the Jin Nan's Emperor, Nan Jifu.

Although Nan Jifu's personality had changed, he still knew about the majesty of the imperial power. However, in the end, he did not pursue Hu Xiong's disrespect.

Even so, in the end, it was to contradict and doubt the Emperor, causing those courtier who were already dissatisfied with Hu Xiong to privately ask Nan Jifu for advice, wanting Nan Jifu to take away his military power. Otherwise, if Hu Xiong were to continue doing so, he would definitely become a threat to Nan Jifu.

However, many of these advice were heard by Hu Xiong.

"Great General, all these years we have fought for His Majesty and fought for him. We did not expect that His Majesty would want to strip us of your military power. This really makes our hearts tremble!"

Tao Yong, who was one of the deputy general, was an old man who had been through many battles with Hu Xiong, and was also Hu Xiong's trusted aide and trusted general. Although he had unparalleled intelligence on the battlefield, he did not understand the politics of the imperial court.

"General Tao is an honest and straightforward general, but he doesn't understand politics at all. His Majesty's actions were not unreasonable. To give up the war and remain neutral meant that he had to ensure the balance of power between the imperial court and the imperial court. And with three hundred thousand soldiers from the Great General, not only will it make those people who have ulterior motives in the dynasty uneasy, it will also make His Majesty uneasy. "

The one who spoke was Hu Xiong, the first person to join the army, he had his own understanding of the situation in the imperial court and the battlefield.

Hu Xiong was a little annoyed by their conversation, and said: "This is just a rumor. I have been following behind His Majesty for many years, so His Majesty probably won't do such a thing. Furthermore, even if we are to remain neutral, we must prevent other countries from invading us.

It would be weird if Hu Xiong wasn't worried. After all, other than managing the army, he didn't know anything else.

"The Great General has to be on guard, I wonder which side His Majesty is singing, he has always been ambitious and wants to rule the Central Plains. But now, my nature has changed. If I were to say that there is no conspiracy behind this, I wouldn't believe it anyway. " Duan Zhi said.

These words had actually connived with the other soldiers, causing some of the full-time officers to nod in agreement.

Hu Xiong was a suspicious person to begin with, upon hearing Duan Zhi's words, his heart also fluctuated, a nameless flame rising within him.

"The conspiracy is being used by those bastards in the imperial court to make use of His Majesty." The conspiracy is being used by those bastards in the imperial court to make use of His Majesty. Hu Xiong said fiercely.

"Why don't we send someone to find out what is going on with His Majesty, and also find out who are the courtier trying to sow discord between us?" Duan Zhi looked to be extremely cautious, but it was also necessary for him to be on guard.

Hu Xiong nodded his head, although he had a harmless heart, he had to prevent himself from getting hurt by others.

A few days later, a shocking piece of information came from the person who sent out the investigation. Some of the people in the imperial court said that Hu Xiong was dissatisfied with Nan Jifu's decision and wanted to conspire against him.

When Hu Xiong heard this news, he was immediately infuriated. When he found out who said this, he was immediately stunned.

So it was actually Nan Jifu's older sister, Grand Princess who harmed Hu Xiong in such a malicious manner. I just do not know what was Grand Princess's motive for heavily injuring Hu Xiong and there have never been any grudges between them.

Nan Jifu had always listened to Grand Princess's words and he was helpless against such a strong opponent.

After some confirmation, those courtier who attacked Hu Xiong were also his trusted aides.

Ever since Lin Jingquan changed his mind, there were no movements at all. He was completely unaware of his mother's actions. Furthermore, he and Hu Xiong did not have any huge conflicts back then, so even if Grand Princess wanted to cause trouble for Lin Jingquan, it would be because he had nothing better to do.

After thinking about it, there was really no one who could understand the purpose of Grand Princess. But since he knew who the mastermind was, he could not just sit there and wait for death. To be slaughtered by others was not Hu Xiong's character.

But just at this moment, the Eunuch beside Nan Jifu came to the camp and called Hu Xiong over to receive his orders.

"Great General, this is His Majesty's secret decree."

"This official accepts the decree!"

After the Eunuch left, Hu Xiong hurriedly finished looking at the secret decree and couldn't help but turn pale from fright. The secret decree said that the Grand Princess was going to rebel and seize the throne for his son Lin Jingquan.

This aroused Hu Xiong's suspicions, the Grand Princess framed him as a rebel, but Nan Jifu told him that the Grand Princess was going to rebel. In order to thoroughly understand what was going on, Hu Xiong decided to personally ask Nan Jifu in the palace what was going on.

"Is Great General going to the palace?"

Duan Zhi blocked Hu Xiong's path, so it was clear that he had something to say.

Hu Xiong was puzzled. Duan Zhi had never seen the secret decree before, so how could he know where he went? However, the two had been friends for more than ten years, so they still trusted each other very much.

"What's the matter with joining the army?" Hu Xiong asked, but since the matter of the secret decree and the Grand Princess's rebellion was involved, he could not directly speak of the fact that he was going to the palace.

"Just now, I received a secret report saying that the Imperial guards had defected to the Grand Princess and placed His Majesty under house arrest. I felt that this matter was too big, so I reported it to you for your decision." Duan Zhi said worriedly.

"What did you say? His Majesty is under house arrest?"

Hearing Duan Zhi's words, Hu Xiong was extremely convinced of the content of the secret decree, and decided to bring five thousand elite soldiers to the palace to rescue his Majesty, who had been loyal to him for over twenty years.

Hu Xiong was very clear about the relationship between the Grand Princess and Nan Jifu, but he was even more clear about the ambition and prestige that the Grand Princess possessed. It must be known that Nan Jifu was brought up by the Grand Princess, but now that Nan Jifu changed his mind, it was hard to say how the Grand Princess would choose to personally destroy his little brother just so the Jin Nan Country could rule the world.

Very quickly, Hu Xiong brought five thousand elite soldiers and rushed to the palace. He was impatient, no matter who stopped him, he would immediately kill them.

"Report!" Your Majesty, Great General Hu Xiong rebelled, he brought two thousand elite soldiers, and rushed to the outside of the imperial palace. " Imperial guards who had always been guarding outside the palace, immediately reported in front of Nan Jifu when they saw this situation.

"What, Hu Xiong really rebelled?"

Nan Jifu was completely unable to believe how much trust he had in Hu Xiong. Even if Hu Xiong had clashed against him and questioned him, even if so many courtier s held Hu Xiong's authority in high regard, he had never thought that he would really remove Hu Xiong's military power.

But now it seemed that Nan Jifu had no choice but to believe in the fact that Hu Xiong wanted to rebel.

"Men, spread my order, stop Hu Xiong at all costs." Nan Jifu roared.

He had originally thought that he would finally reflect on it, and would properly become a good emperor for the common people, but didn't expect that he would encounter the Great General's rebellion right after announcing the peaceful national policy. This caused Nan Jifu to feel that Hu Xiong's ambitions were probably not as simple as just seizing the Jin Nan Country s.
