Chapter 2748: No retreat
Wu Yan’s defeat shocked the entire Great Lu Dynasty. Although it cannot be said that the army led by Wu Yan is all of the Great Lu Dynasty, it is also the majority of the Great Lu Dynasty’s army, and there are many elites among them. Existence, however, is such a powerful and numerous army that even the insurgents can't even beat the insurgents, and it will end in a disastrous defeat, which no one expected.
On the court side, the emperor was naturally furious and asked Wu Yan to go back to Beijing to make a statement in person. In fact, he wanted to ask the crime, and Wu Yan himself knew this well. Although he was old, and, in the past, he was very senior. The imperial court also has merits. In addition, there is also Wu Guifei in the palace. His own life should not be in any danger. However, the position of Shangshu in the Ministry of War is definitely not preserved, and even his position as Shangshu of the Ministry of Civil Affairs is possible. affected.
However, it is impossible not to go back like this. Since the emperor has ordered him to go back, if he does not go back, he will resist the decree and be decapitated, and his family members are also there. As for the imperial capital, if he doesn't go back, those family members will definitely be affected.
Therefore, even though he was unwilling in his heart, Wu Yan still bit his head and headed to the imperial capital. He was already prepared to lose his position as the Shangshu of the Ministry of War. However, he was prepared to try his best to keep his position as the Shangshu of the Ministry of War. With his connections and methods, coupled with the pillow style of Concubine Wu, he is still a little sure about this.
However, just as Wu Shangshu rushed to the periphery of the imperial capital and was about to enter the city, there was news from those who remained in the imperial capital, saying that his majesty knew that he had been in close contact with Feng Jueguo's envoys before, and even secretly calmed down. A matter of collusion between the messengers of the country.
Wu Yan immediately felt that the big event was not good.
He did have close contacts with Feng Jueguo’s messengers before, but they were all for negotiation. He believed that His Majesty the Emperor must have known this situation before. Although he would be a little unhappy in his heart, he should be able to understand it.
However, Wu Yan did not agree to the harsh conditions of Feng Jueguo’s messenger before. All he wanted was to maintain a good relationship with Feng Jueguo's messenger. This would help him control more initiative in the future, even if it was him. There is any idea of colluding, and it has not been implemented. Therefore, now that His Majesty the Emperor knows that he and Feng Jueguo’s messenger are in collusion with each other, it must be false. It must be someone who said that he was in front of the Emperor while he was defeated. He said that on purpose.
More importantly, Wu Yan has always known that His Majesty the Emperor has always been very guilty about marrying Princess Qi to Feng Jueguo. Now, if he knows that he has tried his best to facilitate this marriage, he will even take the initiative. If this idea was given to the envoy of Feng Jueguo, then he would definitely blame himself. At that time, even if he had done meritorious service to the court before, His Majesty the Emperor trusted him very much before. In such an angry situation, he It will definitely be dangerous. If a few more people jump out at this time to attack themselves and take control of their own black materials, then they will not be as simple as losing the War Department Shangshu. The official Department Shangshu has a great position. It may not be able to keep it, and even his own life is in danger!
Wu Yan, who has been in the officialdom for many years, realized the danger of his situation for the first time. He immediately stopped and did not continue to return to the imperial capital. Instead, he asked those who remained in the imperial capital to carefully inquire about the news. In addition, He also asked Concubine Wu to inquire about the emperor's thoughts from the side.
After all, Wu Yan had worked as an official secretary for many years, and he still had some contacts. Coupled with the hard work of Concubine Wu, he soon received more useful news.
His Majesty the Emperor did know that before he proposed marriage to Feng Jueguo’s messenger. This was the thing that angered His Majesty the most. After all, it was his most beloved sister who was married. Moreover, it was one thing to marry away and marry. This is a very embarrassing thing. His Majesty the Emperor has always regarded it as a shame and shame. Now he knows that this incident was actually proposed by Wu Yan, not the envoy of Feng Jueguo. How can this not make him angry? anger?
And at this time, someone went to the emperor to report on him, saying that during the time when the envoy of Feng Jueguo was in the imperial capital, Wu Yan and the envoy of Feng Jueguo had come too much, and they had secretly reached some conclusions with them. The agreement leaked the bottom line of the negotiations between the Dalu dynasty, and this allowed the envoys of Feng Jueguo to have full confidence in the negotiation process and gain their advantage.
After the emperor knew this situation, he was naturally even more angry. If someone hadn’t said Wu Yan’s words in front of him before, he might not have believed it, or would not believe it at all, because he had always been very I trust Wu Yan, but now he is in a rage, and he already knows of Wu Yan's betrayal. At this time, when he heard the news, he naturally believed it.
With these things, His Majesty’s anger towards Wu Yan is not just that he lost the battle. Of course, the defeat is also a big factor. The addition of these factors makes him very disappointed with Wu Yan. Even hated, then, waiting for Wu Yan to return to the imperial capital, waiting for him, there will be no good fruit to eat.
After learning of these news, Wu Yan was shocked, but also extremely frightened. Now he is no longer considering losing the position of the Ministry of Warcraft. This is an ironclad thing. Now he needs to worry more. It is him. His life, under the current circumstances, it is very difficult for him to save his life.
Should this be done?
Wu Yan anxiously jumped on the spot. Now the facts are obvious. Going back is looking for death, but if he doesn’t go back, it’s no good. His Majesty will still make an order to arrest him. If he goes back, he will die. Wu Yan felt that he was desperate.
In desperation, Wu Yan thought of a way, that is to kill His Majesty the Emperor!
In this case, he can be safe only if the emperor is dead. After all, he is still the official secretary of the Ministry of War. Once His Majesty dies, he will be the most powerful one in the entire Da Lu Dynasty. Who can decide himself? Sin?
If it were in the past, Wu Yan would not dare to have such an idea. Although he has a strong desire for power, he also knows that this kind of thing is a matter of decapitation, and you can’t think about it. Moreover, he has been deeply loved by the emperor. Trust, there is no need to have such thoughts.
However, it is different now. Now he is in a desperate situation, and there is no way out.
