Chapter 334 Fighting for Peace
Wen Ziduan glanced at Tihoushan and said, "Huhanye Chanyu, the interrogation of your brother is now up to you. I only want a definite result... The temperature has dropped sharply this time, so you should lead your troops to camp in the city for the time being to avoid the wind and cold." He knew very well that if he didn't leave these people behind at this moment, most of the Xiongnu people would freeze to death.
Not to mention that he had no intention of abandoning these innocent civilians, he also knew that Zhizhi Chanyu's troops were not completely wiped out. There were several forces that were scattered and broke out of the encirclement before the Han army surrounded them and entered the heart of Mobei. If they made a comeback in the future, these Southern Xiongnu led by Tihoushan, who were close to the Han Dynasty, would be the first line of defense to stop them.
"...Okay." Ti Houshan lowered his head, licked his lips, and didn't dare look at Wen Ziduan again. He still couldn't believe that the Third Prince, standing in the tent with such commanding power and commanding everyone to follow his lead, was the Lady Duan, whom he loved so much.
Wen Ziduan, however, was completely oblivious to his thoughts. "After the great battle, countless casualties were suffered on both sides. The people of Yumen Pass were left impoverished and weak, and they suffered terribly. Cheng Gongling, Princess Jin, and Long Feibai, the three of you will be fully responsible for revitalizing Yumen Pass and treating the soldiers on both sides well!"
"General He, Zisheng, and General He Feng, I'll leave the unusual movements in the army to you to investigate. I already have some clues, and within three days, I will find the culprit!"
Several people shouted in unison: "Yes, sir!" They looked at each other and smelled the scent of impending storm.
Wen Ziduan's expression suddenly softened. He looked at He Zhaojun and said, "Zhaojun, join me in uncovering the real culprit behind this, clearing the He family's name and restoring peace to the Han Dynasty, okay?"
He Zhaojun nodded: "Okay, I have wanted to meet you for a long time. Who is it that almost destroyed my He family?" Jin Yuji was just coordinating in the palace, and a lot of information was intercepted by Shao Shang early on, and could not even be delivered. She didn't know much, and she had already told it all.
Gu Guan had been silent the whole time, but now he couldn't help but say, "Young Master, I can sneak into the other people's residences and investigate secretly, but this matter requires the coordination of you and Young Lady. What should I do?"
Wen Ziduan felt a bit of a headache: "If the emperor could issue an order and let me conduct a thorough investigation openly, the resistance would be much smaller." As soon as he finished speaking, he heard someone outside the tent calling him tremblingly.
"Zi Duan... Zi Duan... Your brother is here, open the door quickly!" Jin Yuji lifted the curtain in three or two steps, and a man wrapped like a brown bear, shivering with cold, squeezed into the tent.
Jin Yuji couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Zikun, you are exaggerating."
Wen Zikun, who came from afar, finally felt a little warmth. He lay on a stool beside him and took off his fur coat layer by layer, revealing his ordinary clothes underneath.
"Ziduan, my father's imperial decree specifically asked me to bring it to you. Please take a look. My butt is almost rubbed raw because of this imperial decree." Wen Zikun rarely rode in a carriage for such a long time. He is fine now, but a little bit broken.
Jin Yuji smiled and said, "I never thought that what I learned in Goguryeo would be useful one day. It can be said that my life was not lived in vain... Zikun, are you willing to join me in the disaster relief work at Yumen Pass?"
Wen Zikun patted his chest and said, "As a prince, this is what I should do... It would be better if it weren't so cold."
"Zikun, you are still so simple." Wen Ziduan shook his head and poured a bowl of hot tea for everyone. "Everyone, for the sake of the people, please put aside your prejudices and personal grudges for now. We have only one goal.
He looked around at his companions, smiled slightly, and said with a smile: "That means peace in the world!"
