Chapter 617 The two generals return home
"Please come into the backyard and make tea."
Wu Nian raised his right hand and said to the soldiers with a smile.
"Yes." The soldier responded and hurriedly went down. After that, Wu Nian went back to the bedroom, changed into a set of formal clothes under the service of the maid, and then rushed to the main room in the backyard.
Wu Nian rarely met his subjects in the backyard, but this time he was really happy, so he made an exception.
Wu Nian didn't know much about Wang Youxiao's actions in Chu. However, Wang Youxiao spent several months traveling long distances to the Chu State. He also brought back Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu's family members from the Chu State.
Definitely a great achievement.
Wu Nian really liked this upright and strong Wang Gongcao.
After Wu Nian entered the main room, he immediately saw the dusty Wang Youxiao sitting on the Taishi chair. Before Wang Youxiao saluted, Wu Nian said first: "Youxiao. There is no need to be polite."
Wang Youxiao silently put down his hands and sat back. Wu young man nodded lightly, came to the main seat and sat down. He raised his head and said to Wang Youxiao: "Youxiao, it's a long journey this time. It's really hard on you."
"I have bought some property for your family and added some slaves. Please don't refuse."
Wang Youxiao opened his mouth. He knew the current financial situation of Fuhan General's Mansion. It was really poor. He didn't want any property.
Wu Nian waved his hand, indicating that he would just accept it.
Those who have made merit must be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes must be punished. Besides, given Wang Youxiao's merits, a mere industrial reward is not worth mentioning.
"Yu Xiao, are things going well this time? In addition, I have never been to Chudu. Although I have heard many rumors about Chudu, they are all false. Tell me, Chu State, Chudu
What is the situation?"
Wu Niansheng was afraid of Wang Youxiao's rejection, so he quickly changed the topic and showed curiosity.
"In general, it went smoothly. It's just that the Chu court wanted to trick the general, but I refused." Wang Youxiao thought of this trip to Chu, with a little smile on his face, and said that the Chu Dynasty wanted to confer Wu Nian as
The commander-in-chief of Liaodong, but told Wu Nian about letting Wu Min enter the court as a hostage.
When Wu Nian heard this, he immediately sneered and said: "How could my precious son be sent as a hostage to others? Besides, I was about to annex the Chu State, how could I give the Chu Dynasty a hostage and tie my own hands and feet?
Well done.”
"Yeah." Wang Youxiao nodded, then expanded the topic and told Wu Nian what he saw about the situation in Chu.
People are drunk and obsessed with money, the current situation is corrupt, etc.
"No country like this will perish." After hearing this, Wu Nian said with joy on his face.
"By the way. I'm afraid you don't know, Yu Xiao. Now Chu State has replaced Xiong Wuwo. He has been replaced by a man named Wang Zhongbi. I have asked Jia Gui to investigate him."
Immediately, Wu Nian smiled and said to Wang Youxiao.
"Congratulations, General." When Wang Youxiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he clasped his fists and said. Putting aside everything else, changing generals on the spot is definitely not a good thing.
"Yeah." Wu Nian also smiled and nodded lightly.
At this moment, the soldiers came in from outside, bent down and reported: "General Guan Jinhan, Huang Hu is outside asking for an audience."
Wu Nian and Wang Youxiao looked at each other and smiled together.
"Please come in." Wu Nian waved his hand and said.
"Yes." The soldier responded, turned around and went down.
Not long after, Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu walked in from the outside. Looking at Wu Nian sitting on the main seat, they immediately bowed and saluted: "Thank you, general."
"You're welcome. Sit down." Wu Nian waved his hand and asked them to sit down.
"Thank you, General." Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu clasped their fists and came to sit opposite Wang Youxiao. The two of them were still in a daze.
Unexpectedly, Wu Nian actually accomplished this thing. When they heard Wu Nian say that he wanted to bring their family members to Liaodong, they thought it was a fantasy.
This can also be said to be the best result.
If they surrender to Wu Nian, all the family members left in Chu will be killed.
If they don't surrender to Wu Nian, they will be beheaded by Wu Nian.
Even if Wu Nian showed mercy and let them go back, I'm afraid they would be killed because of the defeat, which would also affect their families.
It's fine now. They met their families in Liaodong, and they and their families are safe and sound. Not to mention, they don't reject Wu Nian.
Of course, it was different when they were rivals. The two had not forgotten their bet with each other, the Xinting Dao and the Osmanthus Brewing. At that time, they really wanted to take Wu Nian's head.
Now that they thought about it, they thought it was really ridiculous. There was no clear distinction between prey and hunter. When they wanted to kill Wu Nian, Wu Nian had already laid a dragnet and captured them alive.
"By the way, let me tell the two generals something first. Xiong Wuwo and Wu Jing have both been dismissed." Wu Nian said with a smile on his face.
Then he raised his head and looked at the two people's reactions.
Both of them had strong reactions, showing expressions such as "as expected", "sigh", "regret" and so on.
Obviously, the two of them were mentally prepared for the fate of Xiong Wuwo and Wu Jing. They both knew how much risk they had to take to be a general in Chu State.
Not only on the battlefield, you may be defeated and killed. The most terrifying thing is the hidden arrows from behind.
A victorious general may be beheaded for a certain crime, and his whole family may be implicated.
"It's a pity General Xiong. Although he fell into your trap, General, he is still a good general. With him in charge of Nanhai Prefecture and Shanhaiguan, with all due respect, it will be very difficult for the general to take over Nanhai Prefecture. As for Shanhaiguan, there is no way
Maybe." Huang Hu said bluntly with an upright temperament.
Guan Jinhan did not say that, but asked: "Dare I ask the general who will succeed General Xiong?"
When Wu Nian heard this, his heart moved, why had he forgotten these two people? It would be better to ask these two people directly if he sent someone to investigate Wang Zhongbi.
"Wang Zhongbi succeeded Xiong Wuwo."
"Qian can succeed Wu Jing."
"Two generals, are you familiar with these two people?" Wu Nian asked sincerely.
"..." Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu's expressions froze when they heard this. After looking at each other, they both smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
"Huh?" Wu Nian and Wang Youxiao frowned and looked at each other, their hearts sinking.
"Are these two powerful people?" Wu Nian asked in a deep voice. He couldn't help but feel nervous. He finally used a divorce plan to drive Xiong Wuwo away. If someone more powerful came, wouldn't it be possible to move him?
Smashing yourself in the foot?
Huang Hu didn't answer and looked up at Guan Jinhan. Wu Nian and Wang Youxiao also turned their heads and looked at Guan Jinhan.
