Chapter 962 Li Mu's Confusion and the Dai Army's Generals' Speculations! How Can Loyalty Be More Attractive than Profit?

Li Bo did not shout as clearly as Li Hong that father and son should go to Daqin together, nor did he make stupid moves to make Li Mu's situation more difficult.

Li Bo was just like a confused child, throwing the problems that troubled him to Li Mu, hoping that Li Mu could answer his questions.

However, Li Bo's questions hit Li Mu's heart like a heavy hammer, and Zhao Jiang's heart, which had finally been calmed down after a long time of comfort, returned to chaos.

Li Mu did not mind Dai Wangjia supporting new forces to check and balance Li Mu. On the contrary, Li Mu supported Dai Wangjia's support for new forces. In this way, no one would mistakenly think that Li Mu wanted to undermine the king like his ancestor Li Dui.

But Li Mu could not accept Dai Wangjia squeezing the essence of Daidi and hurting the people of Daidi!

After all, Li Mu was loyal to Zhao Wangdan and Zhao Wangyan, but the people of Daidi were loyal to him, Li Mu.

Li Mu needs to be loyal to Zhao Wang Dan and Zhao Wang Yan. Li Mu also needs to be responsible for the people of Daidi and should not be unworthy of their loyalty!

After a long time, Li Mu, who was sitting like a dried corpse, finally stood up slowly and walked to the table.

Dipping the brush in ink, Li Mu wrote with a handwriting that was obviously a little lighter than before:

[My son, I am glad to see your letter. ]

[My son's questions are all false. ]

[Your Majesty was a famous gentleman in the world when he was the crown prince. His heart is kind and his behavior is lenient. Although Your Majesty has not dealt with the difficulty of the earth dragon turning over this year, it is only because of the dangerous external war and internal exhaustion. Your Majesty really has no power to deal with the disaster. ]

[As a minister, you should not feel resentful because of this, but should ask yourself and reflect on yourself. You must not let Your Majesty face such a painful choice again. 】

【Next year, a severe drought will come. I think the king will make preparations early, raise food and grass, treat the drought, and save the people of Dai! 】

【As for whether the king will move the capital, this matter is very important. It should be decided according to the king's will. Whether the king moves the capital or not has nothing to do with precautions and suppression. My son, please don't worry too much. 】

【Although the king is the deposed prince...】

When writing to this point, Li Mu's pen tip is suspended on the bamboo slips, letting the ink drip from the pen tip and pollute the bamboo slips, but he has not continued to write for a long time.

What if the king really ignores the severe drought in Dai next year as Ying Chengjiao said, or even takes the opportunity to seize the essence of Dai and make the people of Dai miserable, then is the king really more worthy of support than the king of Zhao? Do I really have to continue to fight for the king?

After all, the king is just a deposed prince! Why should the people of Dai die for the king!

Complex thoughts filled Li Mu's mind, making it difficult for him to make a decision.

Li Mu had to take out a carving knife to scrape off the last few words and a large amount of ink, and then write again:

[The situation in the world is getting more chaotic, my son should be a good official in Qin. ]

[Qin Chang'an Jun is a great general, wise minister, and gentleman who has never appeared in the world. He has no other problems except being too foolish and kind. My son should not be dissatisfied with Qin Chang'an Jun because of your father's repeated fights with Qin Chang'an Jun. ]

[Your father cannot guide my son. If my son has any questions, he can ask Qin Chang'an Jun. If he needs anything, he can ask his uncle's family for help...]

I don't know whether it was because of his inner confusion or despair for the future. Li Mu rarely took off the mask of a strict father and showed Li Bo his gentle side. It was more like writing a will and carefully explaining everything.

After a long time, a family soldier finally walked into Li Mu's tent and ran to the west with three bamboo slips.

Not far away, under the night, Zhao Jiang stood alone, watching the backs of the family soldiers leaving, and sighed softly: "My king! You..."

"Alas~"

"The revival of Zhao should be a hundred benefits to me."

"But why do I only feel harm now, not benefits!"

"I originally had at least one place to live, but now the revival of Zhao has not helped me add another place, but even the place of Dai is quite dangerous!"

Zhao Jiang pretended that he didn't hear anything in Li Mu's tent.

Zhao Jiang knew very well that Dai had few capable generals. If there was really a rift between Dai Wangjia and Li Mu, Dai would soon perish!

So Zhao Jiang had to give Dai Wangjia a white lie to help Dai keep Li Mu, the great general.

But Zhao Jiang didn't really hear anything.

'Qin Chang'an Jun wants to kill Nai Weng, do you, the rebellious son, also want to take Nai Weng's life'?

Under what circumstances would a general like Li Mu, who would only slightly change color when faced with a landslide, exclaim in such an out-of-control manner?

And under what circumstances would a general as calm and rational as Li Mu be so dissatisfied with his son?

Combining the current situation and the key words in Li Mu's mouth, Zhao Jiang effortlessly extracted a piece of information.

Li Mu's son has already turned his heart to Qin!

Combined with Li Mu's shock, this child is definitely not Li Bo who has already surrendered to Qin, but one of Li Hong and Li Xian. This child may even have secretly submitted a letter of surrender to Qin.

Li Mu has been put in an extremely embarrassing and dangerous situation by his son!

Two kings coexist, Dai and Zhao coexist, the King of Dai is unkind, the King of Zhao is unjust, loyalty has no one to trust, the situation is dangerous, the powerful country asks for help, the heirs change their hearts, and the heart is confused.

Zhao Jiang feels suffocated for Li Mu!

This is just thinking from Li Mu's own perspective.

In Zhao Jiang's opinion, Dai Wangjia's suppression of Li Mu is obvious, and Dai Wangjia should also understand where Li Mu's loyalty comes from. In the future, Dai Wangjia may restrain his suppression of Li Mu, but his vigilance against Li Mu will definitely increase day by day.

Li Mu's defection to Zhao State was also not good. The fact that King Qian of Zhao wanted to kill Li Mu was an undeniable chasm! It was also an undeniable fact that Li Mu gave up the land of Dai and supported King Jia of Dai to establish a country! No matter how Li Mu viewed King Qian of Zhao, King Qian of Zhao would be on guard against Li Mu in his heart.

The only option that could benefit Li Mu was to flee to Qin!

But if Li Mu fled to Qin, who else in Dai and Zhao could resist the Qin Chang'an Jun's troops?

Did he have to rely on Zhao Jiang?

Don't be funny, he was the only one left in his lineage, so he would not be an enemy of Ying Chengjiao again!

If both Dai and Zhao were destroyed, what would Zhao Jiang, a member of the Zhao royal family, do? !

After standing in silence for a long time, Zhao Jiang finally looked at Li Mu's tent with complicated eyes and whispered softly: "If Wu'an Jun wants to surrender to Qin, don't forget to take me with you!"

Turning around, Zhao Jiang found several golden lights flashing not far away.

Looking closely, it was the light reflected by the heavy armor of the generals under the light of the fire!

Which general doesn't have a few relatives, old friends, and old subordinates in Jicheng?

When the family letters of the three brothers Li Bo were delivered to Li Mu's tent, the letters of other generals' families had also been delivered to their tents, and the conditions offered by Ying Chengjiao and Li Hong's promise to give sheep as a gift were also heard by the generals one by one.

They didn't dare to ask Li Mu about his thoughts, but how could they sleep peacefully when they were confused about the future and hesitant about their future?

When their eyes met, Sun Yi took the initiative to walk in front of Zhao Jiang, bowed and asked in a low voice: "Captain Zhao, I think you came here because of the matter in Jicheng?"

"May I ask Captain Zhao, what is Wu'an Jun's attitude towards this?"

Looking at the comrades who gathered quietly, Zhao Jiang made a decision in an instant and whispered: "This is not a place to talk."

"Comrades, please come to my tent and talk!"

Li Mu is willing to die for loyalty.

But for the generals under Li Mu, Li Mu's loyalty is not their loyalty.

What they really value is interest!
