"ah?"
"Don't worry." Shen Xun ordered, "Kill that eunuch, and I will say he was killed by bandits."
"yes!"
"You..." Wei Kaiyuan widened his eyes, "You are disobeying the emperor's order! You will be beheaded!" He really didn't understand why.
Chen Xun smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Prime Minister wants to kill them. He killed those two who came from your place last time."
"You, Chen Xun, are you colluding with Fang Zhiyi? Are you planning a rebellion?"
"Rebellion? What rebellion? If you don't tell me and I don't tell anyone, who would know? It's a chaotic situation." Chen Xun paused, "I already deceived the king after I promised him. The common people along the way have already fled. How could they be bandits? The prime minister is just looking for an excuse to let me deliver something to you. If he hadn't died, would you have gone or not?"
Wei Kaiyuan was speechless for a moment.
"If he doesn't die, then let's go and tell him whether I should die or not."
Wei Kaiyuan lowered his head.
"Look, if we break through here, we can overlook the land of the Hu people again." He pointed to the pass in front of him.
"People are secretly lighting incense and praying for you at home. You don't want to turn around and leave, do you? Do you think your father will beat you to death?"
Wei Kaiyuan raised his head, his eyes filled with determination: "Wei Kaiyuan, I am ashamed of the people of Yan State!"
"Oh, that's right." Shen Xun breathed a sigh of relief. The Prime Minister was really amazing. The words he taught him could completely deal with Wei Kaiyuan!
"Now that I'm here, let me go up and move around a bit."
"ah?"
"I brought so many people with me, and we're leaving here safe and sound. Do you think all the warriors in the court are fools?"
With food and fresh troops, the Hu people in the old capital were caught off guard and retreated in three days.
Fang Bufan's hand holding the knife was still shaking, and in front of him was Chen Xun who had blocked the knife for him.
"Kid, killing people on the battlefield is not like fighting among street thugs. You can't make such big moves. Didn't I tell you before?" Shen Xun didn't care about the wound.
"...I..."
Shen Xun sighed: "The Wei Family Army has strict military discipline. It's your father's idea that you stay here. I will talk to Wei Kaiyuan and let you do some logistics work to be safer. If something really happens to you, your father will be heartbroken if he doesn't tell you."
"Lord Shen, I was wrong." Fang Bufan suddenly knelt down and cried.
Chen Xun quickly dodged: "Get up! You kneel down at every turn, do you still have any manliness?"
Shen Xun led the remaining troops to the imperial capital, while Wei Kaiyuan stayed in the old capital to think about the next plan. He wanted to go with them, but was stopped by Shen Xun.
"The Prime Minister is right. You can't go. If you go, the entire Wei family will die."
When Wei Kaiyuan heard him mention Fang Zhiyi again, he got so angry that he just stayed here.
At this time, the imperial capital was full of resentment, because the greedy official Fang Zhiyi's plundering never stopped, and he also invented many new ways to play, such as the royal lottery, which made you rich overnight, and the installment purchase of unfinished houses. Of course, the most resentful were the court officials, whose family assets were plundered by Fang Zhiyi over and over again.
Memorials impeaching Fang Zhiyi flew into the palace like snowflakes.
But the emperor was not in the mood to watch. He was having fun in the new palace designed for him by Fang Zhiyi. Even the way of having fun was invented by Fang Zhiyi.
He knew that Fang Zhiyi was extorting money because a lot of it went into his pocket.
