Chapter 329 I want to ask the Supreme Emperor to make the decision
Vice General Xue regarded His Royal Highness Prince Yun as a god in his heart. If the prince hadn't been so perceptive, able to predict events like a god, and so wise and powerful, they would have been blown up to the sky if they foolishly got into someone's 'pocket'.
Si Haochen asked Vice Generals Xue and Chen to lead their soldiers to station in Hutou City and repair the bombed city gates and walls as soon as possible. He also left a few secret guards to survey the situation in the city, focusing on surveying cellars, secret passages and the like to guard against hidden spies.
In the city.
After everything was arranged, he took the secret guards and retreated to the previous camp - to pick up his wife.
Vice General Xue and Vice General Chen stood at the gate of the city, watching Prince Yun ride away.
"Shouldn't the Generalissimo be here to take charge while we go back to lead the troops?" Vice General Xue scratched the back of his head.
"You can do whatever the Generalissimo asks you to do. Are you the only one with the brains to control the Generalissimo's heart?" Vice General Chen turned around and walked back, intending to personally supervise the repair work everywhere.
"That's right." Xue Gang put his arm around Chen Ran's shoulders, "I'll keep an eye on the city gates and walls. You go keep an eye on the people and clean up the city lord's mansion until the generalissimo comes back."
"You want to pin me to work in the city lord's palace, and you can fish everywhere by yourself." Chen Ran waved Xue Gang's hand away.
"It's really not the case this time. You know I can't handle fine things. If something goes wrong where the Generalissimo lives, you'll have to follow me to get rid of it." Xue Gang accompanied him with a smile, "I promise to do my best.
Work hard and make this city gate and wall stronger than before!"
"Huh." Chen Ran snorted coldly and walked towards the city lord's mansion.
Si Haochen returned to the main camp at sunset, rode his horse to the big tent, turned over and dismounted. When he walked into the big tent, he saw the little princess sitting at the table, dressed in fancy clothes, with her hair tied high. On the table
He kept a huge medicine box, ready to rush to the front line to treat wounded soldiers at any time.
"Ruo'er." Si Haochen walked to Mingruo in a few steps.
"You're back." Mingruo stood up and looked Si Haochen up and down. He looked uninjured, just a little dusty, "You're not injured, are you?"
"No." Si Haochen, wearing armor, only hugged Mingruo gently and let go. "Before the fight started, the Beichi people had already run away when the army arrived at the city."
"He ran away..." Mingruo was surprised, why did he run away without fighting... She was worried for a whole day, fearing that the casualties would be too heavy to be treated.
As he spoke, Si Haochen took off his armor and put it aside. Then he took the shocked little girl into his arms: "Thanks to my beloved concubine, not only did she develop an explosive pack that can blow open the city gate, but she also
Thinking that they would use fire mines to defend themselves..."
"I'm such a clever little guy." Mingruo said without any modesty.
"Yes." Si Haochen kissed the little clever ghost on the forehead, "I'll clean it up in a while. We'll break camp tomorrow and camp at Hutou City."
"Then what?" Mingruo looked forward to the follow-up.
"Waiting for an opportunity to capture Lone Wolf City." Si Haochen pulled Mingruo to sit down, "Thirty miles further north of Lone Wolf City is the Hulan River, which is a natural obstacle to Beichi. It is not yet time to capture Beichi King.
When we go to court, it will be enough to capture Lone Wolf City."
"Oh." Mingruo nodded.
The two were talking when Chu Er said outside the tent: "Master."
Mingruo patted Si Haochen's arm and signaled him to let go of him. Si Haochen put Mingruo on the chair next to him: "Come in."
The second day of junior high school strode in: "Master, princess."
"What's the matter?" Si Haochen's tone was not very good.
"The military advisor wants to see you." The second grade of junior high school didn't want to disturb the master and the princess at this time, but the old man was so annoying that he wanted to silence him directly.
"Yeah." Even for the sake of the Supreme Emperor, I should go see the old guy.
On the second day of the new year, Si Haochen left the tent first and straightened his clothes: "I'll be back as soon as I go."
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare some hot water for you to take a bath." Although there was no fighting today, he still had to run around all day. My boyfriend needs a bath and a good rest.
"Yes." Si Haochen hugged Mingruo again before walking out of the tent.
Si Haochen had just come back, and he went to work again without even taking a sip of tea. It was really hard. Mingruo decided to cook some lily and mung bean porridge for her boyfriend to relieve the heat during dinner.
Si Haochen walked into the dungeon and saw that the old military advisor had been thrown into the "iron cabinet" for transporting felons, but the lid had not been completely closed. He was half lying and half sitting, as if he had stolen a corpse from a coffin.
When the old military advisor saw Si Haochen coming in, he immediately explained his difficulties: "Your Majesty, I am guilty, but... I can't do anything about it... The Beichi people captured my grandson, and the number of heirs in my family is very few..."
"Your grandson's life is life, but the lives of the soldiers under my command are not life. Should they die for your useless grandson?" Si Haochen looked solemn, "Besides, your grandson was killed by someone.
Was he captured? As far as I know, he was seduced by a beauty, and he is still happy to miss Shu."
The old military advisor looked astonished. He didn't expect that Prince Yun would investigate all these matters. It seems that the road of betrayal is not feasible.
"Since you keep saying that you want to ask the Supreme Emperor to make the decision, I will send you back to the imperial capital and hand you over to the Supreme Emperor." Si Haochen was not willing to get involved in this mess.
"His Royal Highness Prince Yun...this old man...this old man has no face to see the Supreme Emperor...you should just execute this old man!" Although the old military advisor clamored to see the Supreme Emperor, in fact, what he feared most was to see the Supreme Emperor.
Others may not know it, but he is very aware of the ruthless methods of his master. Other emperors rarely implicate the nine clans for the sake of reputation, but the Supreme Emperor is ruthless. He has done everything to implicate the twelve clans!
"Are you too shameless or too courageous?" Si Haochen sneered, "The military advisor is getting old after all. What he said just now, he immediately doesn't admit it. I don't have time to accompany you for what you have said.
You are joking."
"Here comes someone."
"Master." Chu Er immediately responded.
"Send the military advisor back to the imperial capital at full speed."
"Well... I'm afraid the military advisor won't cooperate." The second grade of junior high school is most afraid of dealing with such old slickers who have spent half their lives in the army. They are not even afraid of death and are very difficult to handle.
"That doesn't matter, anyway, a monk who can escape can't escape from the temple." Si Haochen's implication is very clear - you have sought relief by seeking death and survival on your own, and if the emperor doesn't vent his anger on you, it will bring harm to your family. You want your own good.
Whether you die or live happily with your family depends entirely on your wishes.
Before Si Haochen left, he glanced at the iron box in the corner: "The wise king is so quiet, is he still alive?"
The iron box made two ding-dong sounds, probably to express that there was a living person inside.
Si Haochen raised his eyebrows slightly, when did this man become so obedient?
The second day of junior high school immediately understood why the master raised his eyebrows, and immediately clarified: "Since Dr. Ming gave some advice to the wise king on the road, he has grown a lot now."
