The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 719 The court is in chaos
Outside the gate of Jinshan Academy, no one on both sides gave way, and the situation froze for a moment.

At this moment, a young man behind the middle-aged scribe asked, "Who are you trying to arrest?"

Although he was very upset, but because he didn't want to make extra troubles, the man could only disclose the case in advance.

"Lin Guanhai!"

Hearing this, the guards present were at a loss, and most of them didn't know who Lin Guanhai was, even though everyone came for Lin Guanhai.

But that can only be a scribe, but he was surprised at the moment.

The editorial supervisor acted under the emperor's order, and Lin Guanhai also acted under the emperor's order. Why did the emperor send someone to arrest Lin Guanhai?
Could it be because of King Yong?
The reason why smart people are smart is because they can see the subtleties.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged scribe stepped out of the way, allowing the supervisor to enter smoothly.

At the moment in the academy, Lin Guanhai was citing extensively, and there were people responding from time to time.

Although most of the people on the scene could not be persuaded, there were always some people who were persuaded, which made Lin Guanhai's efforts pay off.

It was at this time that a team of editorial supervisors broke in, passed the people in the courtyard, and came to Lin Guanhai's desk.

"Who are these people?"

"Could it be from that yamen? Why are you so rude!"

While everyone was discussing, the editor supervisor took out a document, walked up the steps and put it on the desk.

"Master Lin, follow the order, please come back with us!"

Lin Guanhai picked up the document and only read the first few sentences, he almost fainted.

He thought he had escaped the matter of King Yong's "father-in-law", but who knew that the supervisor of editors actually took him for this matter.

Before leaving, the emperor repeatedly stated that he believed in his loyalty to the court... Thinking of it now, Lin Guanhai felt very sympathetic.

After all, the king's heart is unpredictable, and his wishful loyalty is so ridiculous now.

"Okay... I'll go with you!" Lin Guanhai replied calmly.

It's useless to justify at this time, and it's not good to make a big fuss, so Lin Guanhai chose to obey the holy will.

Although the emperor owed him, Lin Guanhai remained loyal and fulfilled his duty as a minister.

On the side, Wei Zhenzhang couldn't help but said: "Sir, there must be a misunderstanding..."

This sentence aroused the curiosity of the surrounding people even more.

Why did Lin Guanhai want to go with these people? What kind of misunderstanding is there?
Lin Guanhai looked at Wei Zhenzhang, and said very solemnly: "You and I are both imperial envoys, and now I'm going back to Beijing, you have to worry about the overall situation in the southeast!"

Seeing that the teacher is still caring about these things, Wei Zhenzhang feels very distressed while admiring him.

"Remember, there is no such thing as a monarch in the world, and the emperor will make a clear decision!"

"Yes!" Wei Zhenzhang lowered his head, he couldn't bear to look at his teacher anymore.

Lin Guanhai smiled slightly, and then said to everyone at the scene: "Everyone, the emperor called urgently, I can only talk about this today, if there is a chance in the future, I will come to Jinshan Academy again, and sit and discuss with you!"

After talking about the scene, Lin Guanhai said to the editorial supervisor: "Let's go!"

"Sir, please!"

Lin Guanhai was so loyal to the king's affairs, which made the editors and supervisors feel admiration, so they treated him with courtesy.

"Don't send me, just here!"

After admonishing Wei Zhenzhang with the last sentence, Lin Guanhai left with the supervisor and left alone, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Although the reason was not explained, the smart people present could roughly guess what was going on.

Ever since the news of King Yong's rebellion came out, the court has been purging King Yong's "partners", and many officials have been implicated.

What made everyone on the scene curious was that Lin Guanhai was in the capital at that time but was not affected, and even took the emperor's order to come to the southeast to preach such important tasks, which clearly showed the emperor's trust.

Why is Lin Guanhai "summoned" back now.

Presumably there was a major change, and the change either came from the court or came from outside the court.

While everyone was discussing, they had thoroughly analyzed the matter and finally came to a unified conclusion.

The court is in chaos!

Knowing this, everyone now has a new view on what Lin Guanhai promised for the court.

"Prepare yourself, and use the same to deal with all changes!"

"That's right...the current troubled season, the imperial court may not be able to hold on!"

"It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on anyone. Instead of sending money and food to the north, it's better to give it to our local son!"

Now the guards of the southern capitals are able to maintain their operations, but they have benefited a lot from these big households.

When everyone was discussing, they directly put Wei Zhenzhang aside, making him angry but feeling helpless.

"Everyone, everybody...the court has difficulties, you should be more considerate!"

"Master Lin just said well, only when the world is peaceful can we all have a good life!"

The discussion on the scene continued until someone said goodbye.

One person offered to leave, and immediately there was a second and a third, and then more and more people left.

"Farewell, I have something to do at home!"

Listening to these perfunctory farewell words, Wei Zhenzhang's face was particularly gloomy, and he sent the last gentry away.

At this moment, a voice came from Wei Zhenzhang's ear: "They are all villains who don't know loyalty and general principles!"

The person who spoke was a student of Jinshan Academy, he was seventeen or eighteen years old, and his eyes were particularly bright and energetic.

"Master Wei, a bunch of short-sighted people, don't worry about their departure!"

Hearing this, Wei Zhenzhang showed a bitter smile.

When he was not an official, he also despised treachery and evil as nothing, but now that he is an official, he understands that the world is not black and white.

The gentry who left just now, although they were obedient to the imperial court, actually supported the great Jin Dynasty, and they had to be wooed.

"Do you have a heart of loyalty?" Wei Zhenzhang asked.

"Of course!"

Wei Zhenzhang went on to say: "Then read more, be sensible, and be a capable minister of the court in the future!"

He said this to all the students present.

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhenzhang walked down the steps and strode out of the academy.

He still has a lot of things to do next, staying in the academy will only waste time.

Besides, Lin Guanhai, who was taken away, had already learned about the defeat of the imperial court in the Battle of Hanshui from the mouth of the supervisor.

Now he finally understood why he was arrested, obviously because of this incident.

Before he had time to care about himself, Lin Guanhai in the carriage continued to ask: "Does the imperial court have any countermeasures?"

"The imperial court has dispatched forbidden troops from all over the country, plus the guards stationed in Gyeonggi, a total of 20 troops, and deployed defenses along the Jishui River!"

Hearing this, Lin Guanhai asked in a deep voice: "20 troops? The court doesn't guard against the south and southwest, and doesn't even want the northern line of defense?"

"Tell me honestly, what's going on?"

"You can't hide anything from your lord. The court claims that there are 20 troops, but in fact there are only [-] forbidden troops, plus [-] guard troops!"

Hearing this, Lin Guanhai said worriedly: "If these [-] forbidden troops are mobilized from various places, they were compiled and trained by Xinjin for two years. Can they really stop the Yong army?"

The editors and supervisors did not dare to answer indiscriminately, although they already had a judgment in their hearts.

"How many troops does the Yong Army have? Are they really that strong? Can they defeat the Western Front Army overnight?" Lin Guanhai couldn't help asking.

The editors and supervisors are well aware of things like intelligence and can answer Lin Guanhai's doubts.

"Yong's army has [-] soldiers and horses, all of them are tigers and wolves!"

"In the Hanshui War, they only mobilized [-] soldiers and horses, and defeated the official army..."

Lin Guanhai felt desperate at first, but he was even more desperate when he heard these words.

Could it be that the imperial court can only go to perish?
