Chapter 346 The Princess is a Smart Person

Wu Jun suddenly felt ashamed, apologized and walked over to sit down.

Just as his butt was about to touch the bench, he heard Song Yanxi's faint reminder: "Mr. Wu, be careful."

Wu Jun's body suddenly stiffened. Just as he was about to stand up, he heard her say again, "The stool is old, Mr. Wu, you'd better be careful."

He smiled dryly, pressed the edge of the bench with his hand and then sat down.

He looked cautious, as if he was afraid that Song Yanxi would do something.

His intuition told him that the Princess of Yong'an must be hoping that the talks would not go through so that she could take the opportunity to break his legs to vent her anger for the fact that Prince Jin had short legs.

After realizing this, Wu Jun suddenly felt uneasy.

Instead of being on high alert and not even daring to drink a sip of water, it is better to turn passivity into initiative.

Wu Jun got straight to the point, "The battle where our former master was defeated by your country's General Lin half a year ago was of grave importance. I cannot just accept one side of the story. I hope Your Highness can provide irrefutable evidence."

He said bluntly: "General Ke is a brave warrior. He has personally participated in hundreds of battles, big and small, over the years. If he is said to have been defeated by the prince, Wu Mou believes it.

But if it is just Lin Tingfeng, I don’t believe it.”

For Song Yanxi's sake, he had spoken as tactfully as possible.

But the disdain in his eyes could not be hidden at all.

I didn't plan to hide.

Mo Jinchuan said pertinently, "General Ke is a good general of his time. It's a pity that he didn't have a wise heart like you, sir, and he followed the wrong monarch."

Hearing this, Wu Jun was moved. "If General Ke were still alive, and knew that the prince viewed him the same way he viewed the prince, he would definitely treat the prince as a lifelong confidant and drink with the prince until he was drunk."

Song Yanxi's fingers holding the tea bowl tightened slightly.

What a good sentence! Ke Shan is the same as him.

Was he trying to remind the prince that he, like Ke Shan, had followed the wrong person and was thus trying to alienate the relationship between father and son?

After talking for a long time and walking such a long way, Wu Jun saw that the two of them felt more and more thirsty as they drank tea.

But he just picked up the tea bowl and took a sip before putting it down again, saying meaningfully, "You two have suffered a lot recently."

Mo Jinchuan said calmly, "Even simple meals can be a kind of pleasure."

"Your Highness Prince Jin is quite elegant."

"I've been stuck in the house for too long. It's rare for me to go out for a walk."

Just one sentence made Wu Jun give up the idea of ​​continuing the conversation.

If it weren't for him, Mo Jinchuan wouldn't have become a disabled person overnight, trapped in the palace for two years and rarely going out.

No matter how many difficulties he has, this is an indisputable fact of the world.

Wu Jun knew he had no way to refute his claim, so he sighed and said, "If Your Majesty can hand over the evidence to me, I can help you two leave Liang safely."

Mo Jinchuan raised his eyes and said, "Mr. Wu, you should know what this king wants."

Without waiting for Wu Jun to do anything, Song Yanxi coldly warned him, "If you insist on pretending to be confused, then there's no point in continuing the conversation."

She was too lazy to even call me by my title, and her attitude was extremely bad.

Looking at Mo Jinchuan who was sitting next to him, his eyes were full of admiration, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong at all.

I almost praised my wife for what she said and asked her to say more.

Now that things have come to this, what else is there that Wu Jun doesn't understand?

Just as the people in the town said, his wife has the final say on all matters big and small in their family.

Wu Jun secretly sighed in his heart that a hero is hard to resist the temptation of a beautiful woman. He carefully asked, "What does the princess want me to do?"

Song Yanxi: "Stop pretending to be confused."

Wu Jun looked a little embarrassed.

Isn't it said that Princess Yong'an comes from a prominent family, is well-educated and well-mannered, has a kind heart and good medical skills?

It seems that except for the medical skills which need to be confirmed, the other items are not consistent.

If her appearance was not the same as the portrait he had obtained, he would even doubt whether His Royal Highness Prince Jin had met this hot beauty on the way.

Song Yanxi only wanted to break his legs. She frowned impatiently, "Mr. Wu, do you have anything to say?"

"Of course not."

Wu Jun knew he was being rude, so he coughed lightly and said, "I only know the details of the matter you two are wondering about, so I'm afraid I can't be of much help."

Still pretending?

Song Yanxi's eyes darkened suddenly. "If you don't want to talk about it, then there's no need to speak."

"Princess, why are you so anxious? Even if you want to avenge His Royal Highness Prince Jin and give Wu a quick death, you should let him finish his words."

"you say."

If you don't speak well, it's not too late to take action.

Wu Jun slowly stroked his beard and continued, "The battle at Beifengpo over two years ago was not initiated intentionally by General Ke, but was a death warrant sent from the capital over 800 miles away overnight.

If anyone disobeys, the messenger has the right to execute him first and report to the emperor later."

"Including coach Ke Shan?"

"Yes, and not only General Ke, but also his three deputy generals and two military advisors, including me. No one will be spared."

Such a ridiculous act must be done by someone who is crazy.

Otherwise, the person who delivered the message lied.

Wu Jun shook his head and said with a wry smile, "My Lady, there's no need to look at me like that. General Ke also doubted the authenticity of the warrant, but the seal on it is the Emperor's private seal, so it can't be faked."

Mo Jinchuan asked coldly: "What else is written on the warrant?"

"The specific time and location of the battle, even the timing for the army to feign defeat and retreat, were all planned long ago."

Wu Jun glanced at Song Yanxi's expression and continued, "Your Highness has dealt with the general for several years before. You should know that he is not a sinister person. His actions that day were truly forced."

"continue."

"Although we two suspected that there might be rebellion in the An army, the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, and the general had no choice but to do so in order to protect his brothers.

But he has always admired you, Your Highness, and he didn't want to see you die at such a young age on Beifeng Slope, so he crippled your legs in public on the battlefield, so that you could have a lucky escape and not be unable to return to the capital."

Hearing the hidden meaning in his words, Song Yanxi immediately asked, "Does the order require us to lure the enemy deep into our territory and annihilate them completely, or is it enough to spare the prince's life alone?"

It may not be written on the warrant, but Wu Jun, as an eyewitness, must know it clearly.

Every word he said just now was revealing a message.

The person who planned this battle was only targeting Mo Jinchuan.

That person must be in a high position and have great power, and he must be able to use a bargaining chip more important than the Liang general Ke Shan to gain the cooperation of the Emperor of Liang.

Who is he?

Although several princes in the capital were vying for the crown prince position and could not bear to see him prosper, they were all overshadowed by his brilliance more than two years ago and were far from having the capital to negotiate with Emperor Liang.

Could that person be a general in the court?

But the person stationed in the border town at that time was Uncle Xu. They had fought side by side for many years and trusted each other, so it couldn't be him.

Southern Xinjiang is two thousand miles away from here, and the round trip journey takes nearly two months, so it is even more impossible that it was General Lin.

Wu Jun took a sip of tea and said with a sly look in his eyes, "The princess is a smart person."

Just one sentence determined the direction for Song Yanxi.

Emperor Xuande.

As the king of a country.

These things that seem difficult or even impossible to others are just a verbal instruction or even a simple sentence to him.

But he had watched him grow up with his own eyes, and he was his own flesh and blood, so how could he...

For a moment, Song Yanxi felt her heart was in a mess and she couldn't make sense of anything.

Just as she was about to ask something else, she suddenly heard Mo Jinchuan say softly, "Don't let your imagination run wild. It's not like that."

Wu Jun couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, and asked, "Does the prince trust him so much?"
