Chapter 972: Leaving Aside The Facts
The virtuous king said: "No! This king must not just watch that dog emperor treat General Long like this! This king must find a way!"
King Ming shrugged his shoulders and said, "His martial arts and wisdom are almost the same as yours, and you understand him as well. If he doesn't cooperate with you, what can you do?"
King Xian said: "Didn't General Long's daughter happen to have friendship with Xu Qing?! Just ask Xu Qing to marry the Long family. This king doesn't believe it. With the state of Chu, your dog emperor dares to intervene!"
King Ming was surprised and said, "What is the relationship between General Long and you? Even your son-in-law can be sacrificed?"
The virtuous king hummed: "General Long is my good general in the Central Plains, how can he suffer such injustice!"
King Ming: "You are righteous."
The virtuous king: "No need to praise!"
King Ming continued, "Isn't this a fact that General Long is guilty? Marrying a princess is called marriage, and what is it called to marry the daughter of a leading general to another country? You don't know, do you?"
The virtuous king: "What does this king call him? It's fine if he's alive."
King Ming said: "You are speaking lightly, and the reputation of the Long family will be ruined! The original innocence has also become treason. Besides, what can I say without reading the information? Secretly used tricks, can your son-in-law marry the daughters of these people? Or can you ensure that they all have daughters to marry? Guess this is what Long Wu wants to see?"
Xian Wang: "Could it be that this king just watched Long Wu fall into a place of eternal doom?"
King Ming looked at King Xian and asked, "Impatient, short of breath, unable to speak out of his head, this is not like King Xian of Chu, why do you care so much about General Long? Have you met each other before? Do you know what he looks like?"
King Xian: "..."

Zhao Guo
After General Long arrived in the capital, he ordered his personal guards not to accompany them, and walked to the palace alone.
But he didn't want to, Long Wu was about to enter the palace but was stopped in front of the palace gate by someone led by Qin Xiang.
Looking at Qin Xiang and the forbidden army behind Qin Xiang, Long Wu asked, "Why did Qin Xiang prevent this general from entering the palace to face the saint?"
Qin Xiang said: "The supervisory censor found that the general had behaved improperly, so he specially reported it to His Majesty, recalled the general, and asked the general to cooperate with the imperial court's supervision."
Long Martial Dao; "The general's behavior is correct, but Qin Xiang said that the general's behavior is wrong? Is there any evidence?"
Qin Xiangdao: "Naturally, we will find an opportunity to show the evidence to the general, but right now, the general is invited to go to Dali Temple together."
Long Wu asked: "Going to Dali Temple without evidence? Is this against the law?"
Qin Xiang said: "Today the general will go if he is afraid, and he will go if he does not."
As soon as Prime Minister Qin finished speaking, the forbidden army behind him came out with their swords in hand, and surrounded Long Wu.
Seeing this scene, the two guards in the distance couldn't help clenching their fists.
"No! The general was taken away by them! I want to save the general!"
A guard said so.
Another personal guard stopped him: "Do you think these few people can stop the general if the general doesn't want to go with them?"
The former said; "Then we just watch like this?"
The latter said: "According to the general's order, go back to the Zhenxi Army first, Captain Long is still in the Zhenxi Army!"
...
Among the Forbidden Army
Many generals who were transferred here from the Zhenxi Army were also aggrieved.
Gathered one after another, even if it is a prison robbery, they will do it.
And the few forbidden soldiers who arrested General Long and went to Dali Temple were held in the toilet and almost disabled.
Although these people also acted according to orders, obviously no one cared whether they followed orders or not.
Just when several generals were discussing about preparing to attack, they were stopped by one of General Long's personal guards.
General Long brought them back because he himself knew what the people who came out of his hands would do if he didn't control them.
It is also very simple for General Long to let these personal guards communicate.
Since the rebellion of King Ming and the suffering of Shezhao, the people have only been stable for two years, and it can be said that they have just recovered from the flames of war.
What would happen if he was rescued by means of prison robbery at this time?
If the Zhenxi Army does not rebel, it will be forced to rebel!
Who will suffer then?
Is it not the people of the world who are suffering?
This is what Long Wu doesn't want to see.
The reason why Long Wu was as close as brothers to the generals was not because he didn't understand the emperor's suspicion, or because he didn't understand that it would make the emperor suspect that he would form a party and support his own soldiers, but for the best cooperation in defense against edicts and even counterattacks.
In fact, General Long understands everything in his heart, but his bottom line and his pattern are higher than ordinary people, much higher.
In his eyes, Zhao Guo's interests are above all else, and the first thing he thinks of is Zhao Guo, instead of trying to figure out the emperor's mind.
Most of the flatterers who try to figure out what to do when they have nothing to do are treacherous and sycophants.
General Long doesn't even think about the emperor, let alone himself.
Perhaps his only selfishness is to arrange the future of his daughter and wife.
Dali Temple
Qin Xiang looked at the group of officials below, gritted his teeth and said, "I asked you to find the evidence of Long Wu's crime, did you find it?!"
The group of officials shook their heads one by one, not daring to speak.
Qin Xiang frowned and said, "You mean you didn't find it at all?"
Subordinate officials continued to remain silent.
Qin Xiang gritted his teeth and said: "You all! Don't you always look for the wind and shadow?! Isn't it possible to find out the crime even if you are not guilty? Why can't you even find out the crime for mere Longwu?! The truth wants you What's the use?!"
The doctor Yushi said aggrievedly: "Report to Prime Minister Qin, I really can't find it! General Long has fought against Shezhao for many years, with more victories than the few, and the weak defeated the strong. Even the two generals in the frontier states quickly let him recover. Minsheng, even before he came back, he had properly arranged all the affairs of the Zhenxi Army. This...how is this a crime? General Long has not committed any crimes above the law! Even if he catches the wind, he can't catch it. "
Qin Xiang couldn't help but slammed the table in front of him heavily when he heard what the doctor Yu Shi said.
According to the calculation of Doctor Yu Shi, General Long can calculate a lot of merit, let alone a crime, and it is still a lot of great merit!
It was the first time he felt such a sense of powerlessness.
At this moment, a voice came from outside: "Eunuch Bai is here!"
Bai Fu walked in, looked at Prime Minister Qin and saluted and said, "Prime Minister Qin."
Qin Xiang also returned the courtesy: "Eunuch Bai."
Bai Fu asked: "Is there any result about Long Wu's matter?"
Qin Xiang sighed and shook his head: "Long Wu has not touched any crimes in the law..."
At this time, Bai Fu smiled and said: "Does it have to be a crime according to the law? Can there be no punishment if there is no crime?"
Qin Xiang was startled, and asked, "What does Eunuch Bai mean?"
Bai Fu said: "Leave aside the facts, since His Majesty can be suspicious, is it true that Long Wu is not at fault at all?"
