Two hundred and eleven: victory

Bai Shinian stood on the hillside, looking at the one-sided situation below, showing a happy smile. After the battle was over, he could go home.

The war was very cruel, and the Qing people resisted stubbornly to the end. However, under the might of red-clothed cannons and a hundred thousand troops, the Qing people finally fled to the deep-bellied land.

A general suggested that Bai Shinian take advantage of the situation to pursue, but Bai Shinian hesitated. The Qing people had no way out and retreated. He knew that the conditions there were extremely bad, several times worse than here. It was very dangerous to chase after it.

The war in the past two months has completely defeated the arrogance of the Qing people. The Qing people died and injured countless times, and there were not many adult men left. In less than thirty or fifty years, the Qing people would not want to restore their vitality. Bai Shinian believed that his goal had been achieved, so he would not take risks with his own life.

A general stood up and asked for his orders to pursue the deserters. Then several generals stood up and said they were willing to lead their troops to pursue them.

Bai Shinian thought about it and approved it. He asked them to order all their troops and headed towards the map, and asked them to chase in four directions. This way, it could form an encirclement. As for whether they could capture these leaders of the Qing people, it depends on luck.

The four generals were not very lucky. They didn't catch their big leader, but they caught several of the big leader's wives and children.

Bai Shinian ordered the prisoners to be taken back to the border town.

The emperor was very satisfied with this and took over the old nests of the Qing people, allowing the Qing people to escape to the deepest part of the grassland with their tails. His personal expedition has come to an end successfully.

The emperor rewarded everyone and announced that he would return to the court. The emperor summoned Bai Shinian and asked him who would stay in the border town.

Bai Shinian thought about it and recommended his subordinates, General Luo, the leader of the cavalry battalion. He was worried that the emperor would think too much. If the emperor wanted to take back all the military power, it would be unsuitable for him to use his own people. The border city lord was replaced, and his confidant generals were also replaced. After five or ten years, he would have no influence here (all the contributions to this battle were attributed to the emperor. Bai Shinian would not have the reputation of fighting Japanese pirates at the time).

When he returned to the capital, he did nothing and stayed at home to accompany his wife and children. On the one hand, he had to make up for his guilt, but on the other hand, he had to avoid the limelight. Their family's limelight was too high, too much was too bad.

The emperor nodded in admiration. Bai Shinian looked at the time and told the emperor that he had been injured in front of a group of generals in the tent that he had to recover from his injuries when he went back. Other things were not possible for the time being. He had to hand over the general's seal back.

The emperor was shirking his responsibilities. It was not that the emperor did not want to take back the seal of the general, but that he had just won the battle and quickly took back the seal of the general, which made the emperor look like he had no demeanor. Who would dare to work hard for you in the future?

But Bai Shinian was anxious, as if he would not kneel down if he didn't accept the handsome seal. Is the emperor the kind of person I'm afraid of threatening you? He even scolded Bai Shinian in court.

This matter soon spread. Zhang Yi and Bao Baogang came over to ask what was going on. Everyone thought it was the emperor who wanted to remove the donkey. Otherwise, why would he have to take away the seal before the man left? Even if he was eager to take back the seal, he would have to go back to Beijing before he could talk about it.

Bai Shinian must stand up to clear the emperor at this time. After hearing everyone's worry, he said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with the emperor. I want to hand over the seal of the commander. I promised the princess that when the war is over, I will only guard her and her children at home and live a good life together. So the seal of the commander has not been handed over now, and I have to hand over it after returning to the capital."

Ye Xun was very upset about Bai Shinian's hasty behavior: "General, aren't you trapping the emperor in unjustice?" Even if you return to the capital, it's not too late to hand over the general seal. What should the emperor think about it when handing over the general seal? Those who don't know think this is embarrassing him.

Bai Shinian actually regretted it, but he did not regret handing over it now, but regret handing over the seal of the commander when the emperor came, and there was no need to worry now: "Before returning to the capital, I must hand over the seal of the commander. Our family is too popular." Wen Wan is now supervising the country. He is still holding the seal of the commander. Can this make the emperor feel at ease?

Ye Xun also knew Bai Shinian’s concerns, but this matter was really too impatient.

Bai Shinian had no choice: "Now I handed over to the capital and handed over the Seal of the Shield, it was actually the same. As long as I speak, even the soldiers should know the emperor's attitude. No matter what happens, there will be nothing." As long as he took the initiative to hand over, and it was still using his oath. Anyway, the whole army knew that he was afraid of his inner self, and it had nothing to do with the emperor.

Poor Wenwan, under the publicity of Bai Shinian, her reputation became even more prominent. However, no one dared to make fun of Princess Wenwan who was in charge of the capital.

Bai Shinian once again expressed his loyalty. He also asked the emperor not to let him be a man who did not keep his promise. He was gentle and sincere. Everyone knows it in the world. If he did not keep his promise, he would suffer any consequences.

Bai Shinian had already made a tremendous momentum. The emperor followed Bai Shinian's wish and accepted the seal of the general. In fact, for the emperor, this seal of the general will be collected sooner or later. Since Bai Shinian was willing to defame his reputation and wanted to send the seal of the general, he would accept it as soon as possible. The emperor also knew that Bai Shinian was a taboo, after all, their family was too prominent.

The day after Bai Shinian handed over his handsome seal, he received Wen Wan's handwritten letter. Bai Shinian felt a little guilty because he made Wen Wan glory in front of hundreds of thousands of troops again. He didn't dare to read the letter. Gao Qin beside him smiled and said, "General, this letter must have been sent more than a month ago." It means that the thing you did only happened a few days ago, and the princess didn't get the news so early. It was definitely not a letter that the princess scolded people.

Bai Shinian nodded and then opened the letter. The letter did not say too much, but just asked Bai Shinian to pay attention to safety and come back safely. She was waiting for the family to reunite.

Although Bai Shinian had made sure that his two sons were fine, he was sure that there was no news from Wen Wan to relieve him! Thinking that the family would be reunited soon, the smile on his face could not be stopped.

The third prince confirmed that Bai Shinian had handed over the seal of the handsome seal, and his face was not worried or happy. The staff around him were a little worried: "Prince, the situation in the capital is not good for us." Princess Wenwan was in power and was impartial and could be considered a central one. But the problem was that Princess Wenwan carried a small tail that gave them a headache when she was in charge of the government. It didn't matter if this little tail was Wenwan's own son. Anyway, it was not the royal bloodline and it had nothing to do with the prince. But this little tail was Ling Xi. Seeing that the prince was about to fall, Ling Xi was pushed out by Wen Wan.

The third prince was also in a dark heart. He didn't know what Wen Wan was thinking. Ling Xi is only ten years old now and her hair is not even grown, so why should she compete with him? Not to mention the military merits he has accumulated. It would be fine if someone else lifted Ling Xi out, but this person was Wen Wan. Wen Wan was different from others. After this incident, Wen Wan's prestige in the court was not even comparable to him. Wen Wan's methods were unfathomable and she had a very good grasp of her father's thoughts. Bai Shinian was also a general and had a great prestige in the army. If Wen Wan supported Ling Xi strongly, he was really not sure that she could win the little hairy child Ling Xi.

Qi Mu had thought about pulling Wenwan down. But after thinking for a long time, he finally gave up. It is not impossible to pull Wenwan down. As long as the father becomes suspicious of Wenwan and no longer trusts so much, he will naturally be able to pull it down. But the problem is that no one knows Wenwan's trump card. He doesn't know how to provoke the relationship between Wenwan and his father. You must know that if you don't do any of this matter well, you will have to accompany him in.

Another confidant aide disagreed: "No matter how the princess is polite, she is a ten-year-old child. It is still unknown whether she can grow up."

The third prince didn't say anything. Wen Wan didn't think about it. Ling Ling was a ten-year-old child no matter what. But he didn't know what his father thought. If the father had the same idea, it would be necessary to kill him when he really reached that point.

The third prince shook his head and sighed slightly that the Crown Princess was too powerful. He had too deep a plan. Wen Wan had already treated Ling Xi as a son. Otherwise, Wen Wan would not have planned for Ling Xi so much. Without Ling Xi, the prince's branch would have been completely abandoned.

As for the queen, Qi Mu didn't want to ask too much. The queen dared to kill the fifth prince. No matter what, as the legitimate mother, she actually killed her children, and her father would definitely be reluctant to go back. So on this point, Qi Mu admired Wen Wan very much. Whether it was the queen or the other princes, Wen Wan did not move. They all came under house arrest.

Qi Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly. With Wen Wan's keen and cautiousness, it was probably more difficult to provoke her relationship with her father than killing Ling Ling. Without any chance, he really didn't want to be an enemy of Wen Wan. That woman was so terrible.

The emperor knew that Wen Wan was carrying Ling Ling when she was in power before Qi Mu. Because he had expectations for Ling Ling, he did not think much about Wen Wan's actions. Learning these things more would also be beneficial to Ling Ling.

The following person wrote to the emperor: "Emperor, this is the news from the capital." The capital is thousands of miles apart from the border city. Many news is lagging behind and it will take more than half a month to know in the evening. Unless it is urgent, there will be a pigeon.

The emperor looked at the news coming from the capital and looked bad. What did Tianlong do? Fortunately, the people around Wenwan were hiding it from Wenwan, otherwise with Wenwan's temperament, I still didn't know what would happen.

Wen Wan attaches great importance to her two children and is dedicated to her life. This is an advantage and a weakness. The emperor is angry, but he is also aware of Tianlong's ability. With Tianlong, Xia Yao and Wu Xing, there are many masters around her, and the two children will be fine.

Looking at the memorials sent to him by the ministers, there were not many memorials, only a dozen. However, each memorial accused Wen Wan of acting recklessly, not only sent Lord Han Han to the Heavenly Prison, but also three censors, and the other censors were punished by all kinds of punishments. Now Princess Wen Wan is the only one who can do anything against her. She is not good at speaking: "It's really a mess." The censors in the capital have been suppressed by Wen Wan so that no one dares to speak. This cannot leave a reputation for doing things in history.

The emperor sighed in his heart, and fortunately he would go back soon. Otherwise, if Wen Wan would be so irresponsible, she would not know what the hell would be like.

Bai Shinian handed over the seal of handsomeness under the pretext of agreeing to Wen Wan, and spread it. He couldn't help but sigh at Princess Wen Wan's strength.

ps: The emperor returned to Beijing and entered the countdown.
