255 Working hard for his own governor(1/2)
In the camp, Chang Kuo and General Xiao were both there.
Chang Kuo told Chang Sui Ning the general progress of tracing Li Yi's accomplices. Finally, he said: "But we haven't found anyone else's spy in the camp yet..."
This "other people" refers to Prince Rong's Mansion.
Chang Suining specifically reminded Guo Changkuo to pay attention to the informants placed in the army by Prince Rong's Palace.
From what Chang Suining heard, the fact that he hasn't discovered it yet doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It can only be said that it was indeed well hidden and very clever.
In front of Wei Shuyi and General Xiao, she just nodded, and the investigation would continue, and she would just keep going.
While Chang Kuo was talking to Wei Shuyi, Chang Suining was sitting there, thinking about Fan Ou on this matter.
From what Li Lu said before, we can know that Fan Ou had communicated with people in Li Yi's army, so Li Lu knew everything about the army... Then, Fan Ou must know who his informants are.
But this person has a very strict mouth, and it will take a lot of effort to get the words out of his mouth later.
Many interrogation methods flashed through Chang Sui Ning's mind, and she was thinking about which one would be most suitable for Fan Ou, or if he needed it, she could tailor it for him.
In short, this person's mouth is very valuable, and she must pry it open.
The girl held her chin up, as if she was distracted. A normal person would never imagine at a glance what kind of bloody, cruel, or treacherous and heart-wrenching interrogation methods she had in her mind right now.
It wasn't until a soldier brought food in and the smell of meat brought Chang Suining back to his mind.
Chang Kuo, Wei Shuyi and others were so busy that they didn't bother to eat.
Chang Sui Ningyu had already had dinner with A Dian an hour ago, but he didn't delay eating with Chang Kuo now. After all, it was already an hour ago and it was time for a midnight snack.
And this meal was surprisingly good. It was said that it was confiscated from Li Yi's private treasury.
During the meal, Chang Kuo served Wei Shuyi and General Xiao a glass of wine. Wei Shuyi remained calm and only held the glass lower, but General Xiao was so frightened that he almost lowered the glass to the ground.
Chang Kuo saw this and smiled and said: "Is General Xiao drinking with Chang or with the same landowner?"
Xiao Min suddenly laughed and looked embarrassed.
Chang Kuo said to him: "Since we are sitting here together, we are in the same robe, so there is no need to be so restrained!"
Xiao Min said "yes" and relaxed a little.
But this relaxation did not last long. After the meal, following Chang Kuo's move, he became frightened again.
Chang Kuo ordered the commander's seal and military talisman to be taken and asked him to accept them.
"This..." Xiao Min's expression changed, and he subconsciously looked at Wei Shuyi: "This matter may still be discussed."
Chang Kuohun didn't care: "The saint asked you to be the coach, just do it. Is there anything to discuss?"
"General Chang didn't know something... Xiao was ordered in the face of danger. At that time, the saint only regarded General Chang and the trip to the state was probably going to be misfortune..." Xiao Min looked frightened but also sincere, and bowed his hands to Chang Kuo and saluted: "
Xiao’s qualifications are still relatively low...Since General Chang is in front of me, I really don’t dare to accept the title of commander-in-chief.”
And he was not the one to quell Li Yi's rebellion this time. He really had no prestige at all.
He felt uneasy and ashamed to accept the handsome seal shamelessly.
"This is the holy decree. Does General Xiao want Chang to fail to resist the decree?" Chang Kuo waved his hand at him, "Just follow the rules. Don't worry, as long as you are not the second Li Yi, I will never make things difficult for you.
"
This is a straightforward statement that may sound presumptuous at first, but it is indeed reassuring.
Xiao Min laughed sarcastically: "General Chang's words are serious..."
The sage asked him to calm down the chaos. Although he was a big guy, he still had careful consideration. Of course, he would not become the second Li Yi, and he did not have the conditions to become one.
Looking at the bold and upright veteran, Wei Shuyi smiled and said: "What General Chang said is reasonable. Since this matter has been decided by the Holy Spirit, General Xiao will only take over the post temporarily. As for General Chang's contribution, I will wait until he returns to Beijing.
I will report it to the Holy One, and if the Holy One has better arrangements at that time, it will not be too late to adjust according to the situation in the future."
What he said was a compromise between advance and retreat, leaving plenty of leeway.
Xiao Min looked at the handsome seal, his expression still hesitant.
Chang Suining had been listening for a long time. When he saw this, he said: "General Xiao, feel free to take it. This handsome man will not bite his hand."
This double-entendre joke made Xiao Min no longer hesitate. He held the handsome seal with both hands and said: "Xiao has the audacity to temporarily take over the position of coach... In the future, if there are any deficiencies, I will look to General Chang."
Please remind me."
After saying that, he turned to the girl who was still sitting there leisurely and said sincerely: "This time, I am fortunate to have Mrs. Chang kill Li Yi. Although the girl is young and born as a daughter, her courage and courage are far better than Xiao Min. Xiao Min really admires her."
Extremely."
Although these words may sound like flattery to save one's life, they are also his sincere words.
This is the reason why he doesn't dare to take over the handsome mantle rashly. Not to mention comparing with his father, he can't even compare with his daughter. If he sits down as the head coach... can he not feel his butt hurt?
Xiao Min is only in his early thirties, his background and qualifications can only be described as average, and his skills are barely above average, but he is extremely self-aware.
Chang Kuo's idea is also very simple. This matter has nothing to do with humility. The imperial edict is here, and he has no intention of rebelling at this time. What is there to compete with for the position of the head coach?
Besides, it's just a commander's seal. With Li Yi's unlucky example, the will of the people in the army is destined to have more weight than the commander's seal and military talisman.
Chang Suining and Xiao Min nodded: "From now on, I hope the army will work together to eliminate the rebels as soon as possible and restore peace to the people in Jiangnan."
What kind of person Xiao Min is, we need to take a closer look later, but if we want to work together, we should also show kindness.
Hearing the girl's words, Xiao Min felt a little more at ease, but also a little agitated inexplicably, as if there was a resonance.
Before he came, or on the way here, he might have felt that the situation ahead was not good, and all he wanted to do was to make this errand as successful as possible. But at this moment, facing such a father and daughter, he suddenly felt that the road ahead was open, and in his heart
The direction also became clear.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Eliminate the rebels and restore peace to the people.
Yes, this is what a general should do.
A few people sat down to drink tea and discuss matters again, and the atmosphere was much more relaxed and comfortable than when they were eating.
…
The night gets deeper, the stars slowly disappear, and the sky becomes brighter.
…
As dusk approached the next day, the rear army arrived, and as expected Yuanxiang and Changji were among them.
In addition to these two familiar faces, Chang Suining also met Captain Bai.
At first, she had exchanged a "kettle" with Captain Bai for a fast horse.
The other party also recognized her, or in other words, based on the rumors about Chang family girls these days, he had already guessed the identity of the young soldier who left the team in exchange for a horse with him that day.
Chang Suining thanked him: "...if it hadn't been for Colonel Bai's help, I wouldn't have been able to successfully catch up with my father."
Lieutenant Bai cupped his fists at her, bowed his head and said, "This is a matter of humble duty."
"I heard from Wei Shilang that Colonel Bai also helped him a lot this time. Yu Zaifu executed him, and Colonel Bai's contribution is indispensable." Chang Suining said with a smile: "If you talk about merit and rewards after the fact, you can no longer be called a captain. You have to be called a captain."
General."
Captain Bai also smiled when he heard this: "I accept Madam Chang's good wishes."
But speaking of it, Mrs. Chang should be rewarded.
But, what kind of reward should be given to a girl?
There are few precedents for this kind of thing to refer to. The specifics can only be determined by what the adults in the capital and the Holy One think.
"Ms. Chang!"
At this time, Yuan Xiang walked quickly with a smile on his face and saluted Chang Suining.
Facing that bright and endearing smiling face, Chang Sui Ning also raised his lips: "Long time no see, Yuan Xiang."
Upon seeing this, Lieutenant Bai retired in due time, but his pace was a bit slow when he retreated, and he subconsciously raised his ears to listen.
Because of Cui Jing, he and Yuan Xiang already knew each other, but were not familiar with each other, but this did not prevent Yuan Xiang from secretly revealing to him on the way that he was ordered by the Grand Governor to come to help Mrs. Chang.
Therefore, the fact that Governor Cui admired and proposed to marry Mrs. Chang was not a rumor at all!
Lieutenant Bai wished he could turn into a fly and land on Yuan Xiang and explore the gossip at close range, but it was a pity that he couldn't transform.
At this time, Yuanxiang had explained what happened to Chang Sui Ning: "...At first, when the governor heard that General Chang was trapped in Hezhou, he guessed that Mrs. Chang must be there, so he ordered his subordinates to bring people to Jiangnan to try to transfer him.
The troops and horses help each other, firstly to resolve the crisis in Hezhou, and secondly, to help Li Yi conspire against him..."
But before others arrived, they heard the news that Hezhou was out of danger.
It was at this time that he met Wei Shuyi, who came as an imperial envoy.
Yuanxiang learned the key to the current situation from Wei Shuyi. After discussion, he decided to hand over the token of his governor to Wei Shuyi and escort him all the way to conquer the troops outside Yangzhou City.
These were not part of the plans confessed by the Governor, but Yuan Xiang knew that since the Governor had given him the responsibility for this matter, he would have to adapt accordingly according to the situation.
Yuan Xiang also knew that although his Grand Governor and Wei Shilang seemed not to be on the same page, they were not really hostile. On the contrary, Wei Shilang was trusted by the Grand Governor most of the time.
Yuan Xiang thinks he still has some brains.
But the above phenomena definitely do not apply to him and Wei Changji!
At the end, Yuan Xiang said with a sincere smile: "My subordinates were traveling with Wei Shilang on the way. Madam Chang, please don't blame me if I didn't come directly."
