Chapter 1157 Take a Gamble

"But what if I alone could quell the flames of war and save thousands of innocent lives? You said An Junwang, would he kill me by a thousand knives? Especially, Jingshijing you After a disaster, so many ministers and soldiers were killed and injured. When the new emperor of Anjun ascends the throne, he must do his best to appease all the courtiers. At that time, he will be even less likely to attack me, a meritorious minister," Zhou You'an said. With a smile on his lips, he leaned closer again, and said quietly to Zhong Mingzheng's thin and pale face, "So, I still have to thank you, if it weren't for your misbehavior for more than a month, if it wasn't for your head, I really can't save this life!"

"You!" Zhong Mingzheng felt the sword turn, and the sharp blade was already aimed at his neck. Zhong Mingzheng held his breath, and the sound of teeth knocking echoed in the empty imperial study room, which was surprisingly ear-piercing, "You...you Die badly!"

"Perhaps," Zhou Youan said indifferently, while suddenly swiping the sword, a bloody human head rolled down, Zhou Youan wiped the blood from the sword, and said to the human head that rolled to his feet, " Whether it's wealth and glory or a bad death, who will know if you don't take a gamble?"

...

August 15th in the thirty-fourth year of Jiasheng.

mid-autumn festival.

Outside the capital city, the camp of King Anjun.

"Master! Something big happened!"

When Zhong Mingwei, Meiya and Zhong Zhiling were talking in the big tent while eating dumplings, they saw two people running in one after the other and standing in front of them panting. It was none other than Kong Wenmin and Chen Qing Xuan.

"What's the matter?" Zhong Mingwei was so busy that he put down his chopsticks, and Meiya also looked nervous. What big event could happen at this time and place to make Kong Wenmin and Chen Qingxuan so nervous?

"Reporting to Madam Qi," Kong Wenmin bowed hurriedly, "The soldiers who were on duty at the front just now reported that the gate of the city was suddenly opened wide!"

"The city gate is wide open?" Zhong Mingwei, Meiya, and the others were startled for a while, and Zhong Zhiling frowned, "Have you sent someone to check?"

"Wen Jie has already led the vanguard team to check, and he will come back to report soon," Kong Wenmin said hastily, "I am worried, so I will report to Master and Madam first."

"Come on, let's go out and have a look." Zhong Mingwei said, taking the handkerchief from Meiya and wiping his mouth, then got up and led a group of people out of the big tent.

"Master, you also know?" Chi Chongyuan and Cheng Xiangyang hurried over to report after hearing the news, saw Zhong Mingwei and his party head-on, and immediately asked, "Why did the city gate suddenly open wide? Is it Prince Rong?" Did you order an attack?"

"Who knows?" Zhong Mingwei shook his head, his face darkened, "Today is Mid-Autumn Festival night, if the two sides fight in the middle of the night, it will definitely make the people in the city worry and fear, I really don't want to start a war today. "

"That's something that can't be helped," Chi Chongyuan said with a nonchalant expression, "Master's heart is soft, in fact, according to my subordinates, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the morale of our army is high, so we should take advantage of the victory to pursue and attack Huanglong, why do we need to take care of all this? If we really did it early in the morning, we should all have the Mid-Autumn Festival feast in the palace by now."

"If you really do something, the capital will be bleeding all over the city at this time, and the corpses will be piled up like a mountain." Meiya looked at Chi Zhongyuan and said slowly, "From now on, every time the Mid-Autumn Festival comes, the people in the capital will think of This tragic scene, no matter how much benevolent government we implement in the future, I am afraid that it will not be able to wash away the blood that was shed this day. This is the capital, and it is a place where you have to think carefully before doing anything. .”
