Chapter 694: Persuading Marquis Wu'an
"Asshole, if I had known you were so heartless, I shouldn't have saved you!"
Pang Rong roared angrily and coughed violently a few times.
His current mood was like a farmer saving a poisonous snake.
Pang Qingping didn't move and let him scold him.
The servant immediately retreated in fear, not wanting to get involved in the war between father and son.
Pang Rong had been a soldier all his life and had many hidden injuries on his body. Although he was not very old, his health was not as good as before. After scolding a few times, he couldn't continue and stopped talking.
Pang Qingping knelt down heavily.
There were porcelain pieces on the ground, but he didn't care and just knelt on them. A trace of blood immediately appeared on his knees.
"Father, you are right to scold me. I am an unfilial son."
He kowtowed heavily, sincerely.
A few days ago, his father suddenly asked him to invite back his old subordinates, and he began to doubt.
I'm afraid my father has already noticed it.
In addition, my father actually went to Qinghe Town secretly, but fortunately he was discovered by his people.
In a rage, he took his father back home and placed him under house arrest.
There were actually not many of those old subordinates, but they came to find my father after hearing some rumors.
He didn't let them meet, and those people disobeyed and wanted to fight him hand to hand.
Helplessly, he could only control those people and even killed one of them as a warning to others.
Those people seemed to have become a little more honest, but he knew that they were still unwilling to accept the result in their hearts.
He couldn't kill them all.
After all, most of the military forces in Pingnan County are still in the hands of his old subordinates, and many of them are loyal to them, so it is difficult for him to instigate rebellion.
In the past few days, he also tried to bribe some young generals, but food was suddenly in short supply recently, and most of his money was spent on purchasing food from those merchants.
Speaking of this, the merchants were unmoved. Of course, some donated grain, but not many.
Fortunately, some merchants were willing to sell at the lowest price, so he had no choice but to use military silver and even asked the county magistrate to use the government treasury.
He couldn't offer a better price to bribe those young players now, which was really troublesome.
"Get lost! I don't want a son like you! Get lost!"
Wu Anhou pointed at his nose and shouted, but Pang Qingping still did not move, and more blood flowed from under his knees.
"Father, you scold me, I deserve it, but I also have my own difficulties. Father, please listen to me, the dog emperor and the Duke of Zhenguo must know what we did in the past. Do you think they will let us go if you withdraw now?
We have come to this point, why don't we fight to the death? Are we going to deliver ourselves to their mouths and wait for them to slaughter us? We have already boarded this ship, and if we get off halfway, we will also die.
My father taught me this since I was young. I think you know this better than me. Father, we have been planning for this for our whole lives. We just need this final push. I don’t believe that you will just give up like this!”
Pang Qingping spoke eloquently and sincerely.
Pang Rong's chest rose and fell violently, but then calmed down again.
In a sense, Pang Qingping is right.
Once you get on a pirate ship, it's not easy to get off.
Moreover, he had long suspected that His Majesty and the Duke of Zhenguo already knew that the previous events were related to him.
Can he really get away with it?
Obviously it can't.
Pang Qingping saw that his father seemed to have calmed down a little, and immediately continued:
"Father, I have arranged everything now. The troops of Qinghe Town have already set out. I have also discovered the secret of Shen Yuan from Daliushu Village. He is not the real Shen Yuan, but an imposter. As long as this news is leaked to the capital, the Duke of Zhenguo and His Majesty will be very angry and will shift their focus to Shen Yuan.
They won't trust each other as much as before. This is our best opportunity. Father, I am only doing this for you. If we fail, you can just put all the blame on me. I won't complain!"
Pang Qingping kowtowed again, his voice choked with sobs, and was very earnest, as if he really was a good son who cared about his father.
Pang Rong didn't say anything, but his mind was full of thoughts.
He was still thinking about how to get out of this unscathed.
Especially how to let Yun Xian escape safely.
Yun Xian has been disguising himself very well, and I believe no one knows his true identity, let alone knows that he is pretending to be stupid.
He could disregard his own life, but he could not disregard his son's life.
If he quit, Yun Xian could still live well and pretend that nothing had happened, but it would be difficult for him to keep pretending to be stupid.
If he doesn't quit and succeeds, would Yun Xian really be willing to be the emperor?
If you fail...
Pang Rong glanced at Pang Qingping.
This is the son he raised with his own hands. He once trusted him very much, but now, he dare not believe him.
Qingping knew that they had joined forces with Yunxian, but he didn't know that he and Yunxian were father and son.
The only thing I’m afraid of is that he’ll eventually give Yun Xian away, and then everything will be over.
"Father, believe me, I have recently discovered that many spies want to enter our Pingnan County, which means they must be alert. Who knows what evidence they have. We can't get off the boat anymore. Even if you stop, you will end up with a false accusation.
Since we can't get out of this unscathed, why can't we fight to the death? If we succeed, you can give the position to whoever you want, father. Now you can agree or not, but I have already put the arrow on the string and have to shoot it. "
Pang Qingping said a few more words, causing Pang Rong to close his eyes tightly.
It's over. It's too late.
He has already started to act. Who would believe him if he said it had nothing to do with him, Marquis Wu'an?
He had long been tied to him, and if he suffered, they would suffer together.
Whether he agrees or disagrees, supports or not, he can't explain it clearly now. Who can believe that Pang Qingping's rebellion has nothing to do with him?
After all, he is the one in charge of all the military forces in Pingnan County.
"Where are you at now? Tell me about your plan."
When Pang Qingping heard this, a light shone in his eyes and he was overjoyed.
"There is a problem with food, so I will send the military rations here to Qinghe Town and set off together. However, the food here has been collected almost.
This return to the capital is the best opportunity. We can bring most of the troops from Pingnan County, and some can follow quietly. In the northern border, our people have already instigated several generals to rebel, and they are willing to avenge the Huo family..."
He spoke very carefully. After all, experience always counts, and he wanted to hear his father's opinion.
"The soldiers in Qinghe Town have already moved away. The soldiers in Pingnan County should stay. The noise is too loud and it will easily alert the enemy. After all, there are also movements in the northern border. When we return to the capital, we will only bring the 200 people within the regulations. This is enough."
A capital city is not enough to waste so many troops.
Pang Qingping nodded: "Father is still very thoughtful."
