When Jiang Jie, Lin Yu and the others heard the news, they felt terrible.
"public trial?!"
A public trial? This is a murder case involving a lord! There are so many dark things in it, how can it be brought out in the open for a public trial?
Do you still want to save Gu’s reputation?
Not only the Gu family, but other lord families were also implicated!
After this case, do the people of the Gu Principality still have awe for their lord?
Yes, this may be what Jinmao wants!
Now we have a parliamentary system with a nominal monarch, so what he does will only bring benefits and no harm.
Moreover, it is a good opportunity to vent the people's gratitude to the Gu family.
After allowing people to talk about the dark side of the Gu family, any kindness the Gu family had left was also used up.
This is really like cutting off the fuel from the fire!
This will cut off the possibility of the Gu family's restoration in one step!
"My lord, this matter is a little beyond our expectations! Should we still proceed as planned?" Lin Yu asked anxiously.
Yes, they originally thought that the meeting and trial would be held in the conference hall at most, but they didn't expect that the public trial would be held at the city gate.
Now, many of the original plans are no longer feasible. All arrangements need to be readjusted.
Moreover, the current situation was completely beyond their expectations, making them very uncertain about whether their subsequent plans would go smoothly.
Jiang Jie felt that coming to the Gu Principality was not smooth at all. There were unexpected things everywhere, which made him exhausted.
Jiang Jie was also struggling to cope with such a gang change. He waved his hand and said, "Go and discuss countermeasures with Gu Xing again."
Originally, they planned to protest in the parliament, but if they pushed the city gate, there would be too many ordinary people.
All noble and feudal families have an unwritten rule that political struggles and armed conflicts will not affect ordinary people.
If we take action during a public trial, I'm afraid ordinary people will be hurt!
If this happens, they will be unable to move freely. They are already at a disadvantage, and if they still cannot move freely, their chances of success will be even lower.
This is also Jinmao’s advantage.
Not only has he won the hearts of the people, but he has also eliminated the remaining power of the Gu family, and he can also use ordinary people as shields to protect himself!
It really kills three birds with one stone!
But we are not from the Gu Principality!
Why should we protect the people in your territory?
Thinking that this place wasn't the Jiang Principality after all, his eyes flashed with anger, "If you really want to take action and hurt innocent people, don't blame us."
Lin Yu paused, understanding the meaning of this sentence and what the consequences would be.
He frowned and said, "My Lord, such words are morally inappropriate."
Jiang Jie waved his hands irritably and said, "Armed conflict is our last resort. We won't resort to it unless it's absolutely necessary. Go discuss the plan with Gu Xing again."
After Lin Yu left, Jiang Jie was still very depressed about what he did to Jin Mao.
"Jin Mao, who can peacefully usurp power and be praised by everyone, is truly a powerful character!"
This action immediately made his plan several times more difficult, reduced the success rate a lot, and turned an unfavorable situation into one that was favorable to him.
That’s amazing!
…
Gu Xing was also stunned when he heard the news.
All members of the secret guard team rushed back after receiving the news to discuss countermeasures.
"Captain, if that's the case, our original plan is useless. Moreover, in front of so many people, we..."
After all, the Gu family has been the lord for thousands of years. The most basic rule for the Gu family is that they must not harm the people under their rule. They are aware of this customary rule.
And specifically said. This is a restricted area!
"Jin Mao is too shameless, isn't he? Is he going to use the leadership position as a hostage?"
There are a large number of subjects here, how can they use force?
Unlike Jiang Jie, they did not believe that they could defeat Jin Mao and Wu Zheng by using political tricks.
They had long been thinking about using force to suppress the rebellion.
They also have a trump card that can guarantee victory once it is played, but the cost of using the trump card is too high.
This trump card only has one chance to be used. Once it is used, the family will have no trump cards left!
Such an opportunity is so precious.
If you don’t succeed, you will die!
Success and failure are two different things!
Gu Xing was the captain of the secret guards, a ruthless man. He made the decision after only a moment's hesitation.
"The arrow is on the string, we have to shoot! Redeploy, we must kill with one strike! Restore the glory of our Gu family!"
The Gu family cannot fall into decline in his hands!
Gu Xing had no choice but to launch this struggle!
The family's trump card has a time limit. If the time is almost up and it cannot be used, it may be wasted.
He also discovered this secret not long ago when he was sorting out his lord's belongings.
The lord knows it, Gu Qing may also know it, but Gu Yan definitely doesn’t know it!
Gu Yan didn’t know, and Wu Zheng couldn’t possibly know either.
Even he, who had always been by his lord's side, didn't know, and it was even more impossible for Jin Mao, who had left his lord long ago, to know.
After Gu Xing's words came out, although some people disagreed, no one expressed any different opinions.
A guard came to see him and reported, "Master, Master Lin Yu is here to see you."
Humph, plans cannot keep up with the changes, the previous plan is invalid, and naturally we have to come here again to discuss countermeasures.
However, this time's plan really couldn't do without them. Even though Gu Xing hated Jiang Jie and his group of outsiders, he had no choice but to form an alliance with them and conspire to do something big!
They don't care too much about the people in the Gu family's territory!
Unlike these people, I don't feel the pain deeply.
Lin Yulai should be here to persuade them to carry out the plan.
Gu Xing sneered and said, "You're welcome!"
…
Wu Zheng laughed heartily after hearing this announcement, "That's really Brother Jin's style. He's really using this opportunity to his full potential!"
It was originally a bad thing, but he could always find a way in, gain the upper hand, and clear away all obstacles with the trend of the times.
Wu Hong looked at Wu Zheng worriedly and said, "Brother, we are deeply involved in the Gu Qing case! This time, I'm afraid that everything will be exposed. How can we win the support of the people and how can we hold power in the future?"
Wu Hong is really getting smarter now. When it comes to the interests of the Wu brothers, he can actually think so far ahead.
Wu Zheng said with relief, "Yes, you've improved a lot recently! You've hit the nail on the head. We're deeply involved, so it might not be easy to completely remove ourselves. However, we've always been behind the scenes, and Gu Yan has always been the one in the front."
"Now, Gu Yan is dead, and there's no evidence. What does it have to do with us?! Even if we are involved, it's a mess. Each has his own reasons. It's not a big deal."
