I Heard I've Been Dead For Thousand Years

A short while later, Jile suddenly stopped, faced the officer, and said in a deep voice.

"We have come to the point where we have no hope for the future and can only plan a way out. Ji Ren has a grudge against us for being in the way, and if he is the victor, we will have no way out. Right now, we have no army to use as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Tianwai Tian, so there is only one choice, Long Huying!"

Ji Le turned around and went back to the house, dragged out a box of letters and placed it in front of the official.

"These are all the cards that I have been holding on to for many years, and they have all the leverage on the guards, such as today's Kai City, you go and print a copy and send someone to them."

After hearing this, the official's eyes skittered around and asked.

"Do you have something on Wang Zhen?"

"Wang Zhen? Huh?"

When the officer mentioned this person, Jile said after a grunt of discontent.

"He has never done anything bad, and now that he is in such a high position with such great power, he has even turned down all of Ji Ren's rewards on the grounds of the Da Yuan national disaster.

In closing, Gilead advised.

"The preparation for Ji Ren's enthronement ceremony is faster than I expected, and he will be enthroned tomorrow, and the three armies of the Heaven Beyond Heaven will also arrive tomorrow at the latest the day after tomorrow. You have to do it quickly at this time, and tomorrow I will take the heads of this Apocalypse City and Wang Zhen as a gift to Long Huying, in exchange for our lives."

"I'll do as I'm told!"

The official took a large box of letters and left.

The next day, Wang Zhen, dressed in military attire, inspected the defense lines of Tianqi City as usual and took charge of the battlefield, but he did not dare to go up to the city tower again for fear of Wang's archery skill.

On that day, Wang Zhen noticed that many city defense generals looked at him evasively as if they had a guilty conscience, and the atmosphere was very strange and subtle.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do this, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.

Wang Zhen asked, but no one answered, they all just took it as they always did.

Wang Zhen was puzzled, so he could only act as usual.

After a round of inspection, Wang Zhen came to Tianqi City, where Long Huying's army was attacking the main city, under the East Gate of Yongan, to check today's battle situation and the sand table, so that he could adjust his strategy in time.

As soon as Wang Zhen entered the discussion room and looked at the sand table, he was furious, pointing at the sand table in front of him and looking around at the generals.

"Why is there such a big gap in the front line! Where have all the first, third, fifth and sixth guards gone! Hurry up and get someone to take over!"

As the words fell, all the generals in the room bowed their heads and remained silent.

Wang Zhen's brows furrowed, wondering what had happened and why everyone was like this, but there was a bad feeling rising in his heart.

"Because they have all surrendered."

At this time a young man's cheerful and calm voice appeared from the doorway.

"Surrendered? What a joke!"

Wang Zhen angrily reprimanded and looked back, only to see a black fox fur coat, pale and handsome face, unusual temperament but some seem lazy youth in the crowd into the parliamentary room.

It was Long He-Ying, with Lin Meng and Zhou Yuan on his left and right.

Long Huyoung? Why is he here?

Wang Zhen was stunned, he had met Long Huyoung before, could not understand how the enemy's supreme commander could appear in his lair, and did not return to his senses for a long time.

Wang Zhen then realized that this was a collective surrender of their defenders, which directly overtook him, the commander-in-chief of the city's defense, and opened the gates wide to welcome Long Huying and his army in just now!

No wonder these people are in such a strange state today!

Wang Zhen was so furious that he drew his sword and was about to slash Long Huying.

The only thing that happened was that Long Huying didn't move or dodge, and no one from the crowd behind him made a move, so the indoor generals who were originally colleagues with Wang Zhen jumped forward and crushed Wang Zhen on his knees.

"You bastards!"

Wang Zhen gritted his teeth and roared, a fierce face of Jairus.

"You disloyal bastards,

One of the generals holding Wang Zhen down looked guilty at the news? Whispered to him.

"Lord Wang? Stop it! We also have a hard time talking about it!"

The grip that Ji Le had on his hands was enough for all of them to eat.

Sooner or later, Tianqi City was going to be destroyed, whether it was by Long Huying's hands or by Heaven Beyond Heaven's, every defending general including Wang Zhen knew this clearly.

If Long Huying were to break the city and win, the defending generals would either die in battle or live to see their future end.

And if Tianwai Tian were to break the city? If Ji Le and Tianwai Tian make peace, Ji Le will have enough leverage to make them lose their posts and even exile their heads.

Since last night, Ji Le sent these levers to the generals to threaten them, the generals agreed.

Since neither the left nor the right has a good ending, it is better to follow Ji Le and offer this Tianqi City to Long He-Ying, and maybe he will even get the honor of being a Dragon.

"Have a hard time saying it? What has this traitor got hold of you, that you can even abandon your loyalty, righteousness and honor!"

Wang Zhen struggled and roared, but it was useless, and he was pushed to the ground and killed.

"It wasn't him who held their grip, it was me!"

At that moment, another voice came from outside the door, and Ji Le, who was dressed in a plain and light robe, walked into the door, kneeling down and kowtowing to Long Huying.

"Join His Majesty!"

With Ji Le leading the way, the original city guards standing in the room also knelt down on one knee and shouted.

"See Your Majesty!"

Wang Zhen looked around and knew that the situation was over, and shook his head and laughed.

Long Huying bowed slightly to assist Ji Le.

"Please rise, all of you."

Ji Le did not get up, and neither did the generals.

Just when Long Huying was confused, Ji Le shouted loudly.

"I also ask Your Majesty to punish the traitor Wang Zhen with death! "

"Please, Your Majesty, punish Wang Zhen with death!"

All the generals agreed in unison, and Long Huyoung saw that this was a clear attempt to force him to kill Wang Zhen, and they would not rise until they agreed.

"Wang Zhen is a loyal minister of the country."

As Long Huying shook his head helplessly, Ji Le said again.

"Wang Zhen is loyal to Da Yuan, but not to His Majesty, guilty of His Majesty. Wang Zhen is not guilty, but I am guilty of death!"

"I am guilty of capital murder!"

All the generals were in agreement again.

Long Huying frowned at Wang Zhen and hesitated for a moment.

Wang Zhen's unyielding eyes stared straight at Long Huying, revealing endless disdain and ridicule.

If you don't kill Wang Zhen, it will be difficult to convince the people who surrendered to him, and you will not be able to establish a new dynasty.

But if he killed Wang Zhen, he would be ashamed of the righteousness of Long He-Ying's heart.

He was in a dilemma for a while.

Killing Wang Zhen was the way of the emperor, but not the righteous way of the world. Not killing Wang Zhen would be the way of the world, but not the way of the emperor.
