Chapter 349: Lian Po defends the city, the Yan army arrives
With Lian Po's words, the officials of Jin State seemed to be energized.
Gradually I gained some confidence.
But there are also some people who know it very well.
The State of Jin was destroyed, and even if the Golden Immortal came down to earth, it would be useless.
But no matter what, having Lian Po guarding the city can at least give Ji Chong'er some sense of security.
After the court was dismissed.
Han Feizi, Shen Buhai and others gathered together to discuss the current situation.
"I'm afraid the Jin Kingdom is really going to be lost. In the next two days, I plan to leave Shangjing and go to Dafeng to find an errand."
"My home is here. My ancestors have been here for generations. My roots are too deep to leave."
"Where's Brother Han? Where are you going?"
“…”
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Han Fei.
Then, he said, "I plan to go to Qin State."
Go to Qin?
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone showed an incredible expression.
After a while, they began to accuse Han Fei.
"If the Great Jin is destroyed, it will be because of Qin. How can Brother Han go there?"
"To put it bluntly, what's the difference between this and recognizing a thief as your father?"
"Brother Han, if you go to Qin, I'm afraid your reputation will be ruined!"
“…”
Hearing this, Han Fei just smiled faintly and did not explain anything.
After everyone dispersed.
Shen Buhai then approached him and asked, "How confident are you in going to Qin this time?"
Han Fei smiled bitterly and said, "How can I be sure? Let's try as much as possible. I hope that Shangjing City can hold out until I return."
Shen Buhai asked curiously, "Once you really go there, do you think you can come back?"
Han Fei shook his head and said, "I don't know either. If I can't come back, it means my plan has failed."
After a pause, he asked again: "What about you? Where are you planning to go?"
Shen Buhai said sadly, "Let's go to Qi and stay at the Jixia Academy for a while."
Han Fei nodded and said, "That's fine. I have a junior fellow student who happens to be at the Jixia Academy as well."
"But I heard that he is planning to go to Qin State recently. I wonder if you can still run into him."
"I've never heard that you have a junior brother." Shen Buhai said with a smile.
Han Fei said, "His name is Li Si. Our relationship is neither good nor bad, so I haven't mentioned him to you."
"When do you plan to leave for Qi?"
Shen Buhai said bluntly, "We must leave tonight. If we leave it a few days later, I'm afraid we won't even be able to leave the city."
Although they were ministers of the Jin Dynasty.
However, unlike Ji Chong'er, they could only stay in Jin and wait for death.
Because he was the emperor of Jin.
As for them, they could just go somewhere else and make a living on their own when the Jin Dynasty was about to perish.
This is also why many ministers did not panic when they saw that the Jin Dynasty was about to perish.
Only those who were born and raised in Jin would think of dying for this land.
Late that night, Shen Buhai and many of his ministers left Shangjing City.
It can be predicted that tomorrow's court will be empty.
Lian Po stood on the top of the city wall for a whole day.
Looking at the nobles who were constantly leaving the city, he wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he shook his head and remained silent.
Zu Ti stood behind him and asked, "General, you watched them leave the city with your own eyes and remained unmoved?"
Lian Po said, "Those who want to leave cannot be stopped, and those who don't want to leave don't need to be stopped."
Zu Ti asked again, "General, aren't you afraid that their departure will affect the morale of the army?"
Lian Po said, "Rather than disrupting the morale of the army, I believe that their departure from the court will be of greater help to me and the army."
Zu Ti was stunned, and instantly thought of many things. He said admiringly: "General, this is a wise idea."
Lian Po seemed to be thinking to himself, "Actually, I have always hated political struggles."
"Back then, I couldn't defeat Lin Xiangru in the court, so I had to apologize by carrying a thorny stick on my back."
"Since then, the court has been a matter of less trouble for me."
Zu Ti nodded and kept these words in mind.
The next day, early in the morning.
Han Fei also left.
When Lian Po bumped into Han Fei who was about to leave the city, he was slightly taken aback. "You want to leave too?"
Hearing this, the latter responded: "We are going to Qin State."
Lian Po felt relieved and nodded thoughtfully, "Will His Majesty agree?"
Han Fei said, "If His Majesty knew, he would definitely not let me go. What if I really defected to the Qin State?"
"Keep it a secret for now. Wait until I come back."
Lian Po nodded slightly and ordered his soldiers to open the city gate.
Han Fei took two steps toward the city gate, turned back and said to Lian Po:
"If I can't come back, the state of Jin will be in your hands, General."
Lian Po said nothing, just nodded and watched Han Fei leave.
The future of Dajin seems to be entrusted to this old man and this young man.
In the palace.
Ji Chong'er became furious when he saw that there were only a dozen ministers standing there.
He actually thought that many people would leave recently.
But what was unexpected was that Shen Buhai and Han Fei also left.
This was a little hard for him to accept.
I instantly felt what it means when people leave and the tea gets cold, when rabbits die and foxes grieve...
"If the Great Jin can survive this ordeal, I will kill all these treacherous dogs!"
Ji Chong'er roared.
He also swore secretly.
One day when I have power, I will kill all the dogs that have betrayed me!
As long as the Great Jin survives, he will still be the emperor and will still have power!
