The master behind Yang Sui
Chapter 87: The Master Behind Yang Sui
Jin Hongye was protected by fourteen or fifteen other people this time, and only suffered some minor skin injuries. After using the medicine that Xue Zhan brought back from the palace, he was almost recovered.
After the Mongols withdrew, he sent a letter home, informing his family that the prince was taking care of his uncle for him, and asked his family to send some silver and money, as he was going to the prince's palace to pick up his uncle.
On this day, the messenger came back with letters from home and a large amount of banknotes, expressing his sincere gratitude to the King of Zhenbei. Since he couldn't speak clearly, he gave the banknotes to his uncle and asked him to come forward.
After reading the letter, Jin Hongye said that the elders in the family looked down on him. He, Jin Hongye, was very important in front of the prince! It was just a thank you, why did he need his uncle to come forward?
After getting himself ready, he went to Xue Zhan and Qin Feng to inform them that he was going to the palace to pick up his master today and would be back in the evening.
In recent days, Jin Hongye has been assigned a lot of tasks by the two of them, and he is almost overwhelmed. However, he can understand that there are only three generals in the military camp now, and there is no one to work.
General Song used to be very capable in handling military affairs, but now he is lying in bed and the military doctors are shaking their heads, and it seems that he cannot be saved.
We should quickly bring the master back to the military camp so that he can help deal with the situation. He has been living a miserable life these past few days.
He rode at full speed all the way to the palace.
"Your Highness, I greet you! How is your recovery from your injuries? Your Highness, I am here to take you back to the military camp today."
As soon as Jin Hongye entered the room, he was busy bowing, talking, and taking out silver bills from his chest.
"Well, get up quickly. My injuries are recovering well and I will be able to return to the barracks soon."
"Master is in Lancao Courtyard. I'll ask a palace soldier to take you there and take the banknotes from you. It hurts my eyes to see them."
Chu Huaibei was really embarrassed to see this man actually take out a stack of banknotes to redeem the huge reward he had promised before.
After knowing Hu Zhi's identity, how could she possibly accept the money from her cousin? Besides, she had no intention of accepting it in the first place.
I just don’t know when Hu Zhi will recognize them.
"Your Majesty, why don't you accept it? Otherwise, my family will think that I am incompetent and can't even give money away."
Jin Hongye stood aside and tried to persuade him.
"Then you can tell your family that I accepted it, and you can keep the flowers for yourself."
"That's even more unacceptable, Your Majesty! How could you teach your subordinates to lie?"
Chu Huaibei...is indeed an upright child.
This was the scene Sun Mingsi saw when he returned from the study: one wanted to give money, the other didn't.
"Huaibei, if he wants to give it to you, just accept it. His family is not short of money."
Hearing someone talking behind him, Jin Hongye subconsciously turned around to look.
"Who are you? Why do you look so much like my mother when she was young?"
The moment Jin Hongye saw the visitor, he was already wondering whether his parents or his uncle and other elders had any mistresses outside.
When Sun Mingsi saw his cheap cousin, his expression had already slid into an indescribable direction, and it was obvious that he was thousands of miles away from the standard answer.
But he couldn't blame them. After his mother entered the palace, she had few opportunities to meet her relatives. She later passed away early, and then his grandfather died. He was also a person who could never leave Longzhou.
Before the death of the previous emperor, he was granted the title of Prince of Leisure and the most barren land in the whole of Daxia, Longzhou, was designated as his fiefdom, and he was not allowed to leave the fiefdom without being summoned.
He couldn't even see his father off on his final journey. Trapped in the palace, he could only fast for 49 days to pray for his father.
Because he was born too late, he was unable to compete with the emperor, and instead his father had to go to great lengths to find a way out for him.
"Uncle! Uh, I mean Master..."
The silence in the room was broken by this call.
Chu Huaibei had previously asked the palace soldiers to invite the legal advisor over, hoping that they would return to the barracks earlier and stop arguing about the money here.
Zhu Zhengmao glared at Jin Hongye and saluted Chu Huaibei.
"My name is Zhu Zhengmao, and I pay my respects to His Majesty. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me for concealing my identity and entering the military camp."
He had forged a household registration in Yangzhou and used someone else's identity to enter the military camp as a legal advisor. Before his father died, he had instructed that he was not allowed to serve as an official in the court, and he did not break this rule. A legal advisor without a rank was not an official.
Sun Mingsi didn't expect that this person was actually his uncle. No wonder he came up and asked who his mother was.
When I was young, I met my eldest uncle in the palace. He was an official, so it was easier for him to enter the palace. I don’t know which uncle he was. My grandfather had a total of five sons and two daughters.
"Master, there's no need to be so polite. I can pretend I don't know anything about it. Just continue to stay by Jin Hongye's side."
Chu Huaibei expressed his thoughts to the three people in the room.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Jin Hongye and Zhu Zhengmao spoke at the same time.
Sun Mingsi saw that the three people's eyes were focused on him. Huaibei was naturally hinting to him, but she didn't say it out loud and let him think about it himself.
The uncle and nephew looked at each other nakedly, but now was not a good time. Revealing his identity would implicate Huaibei's secret.
"Someone, show the guests out."
Jin San came out in person.
"This way, please."
The two men had no choice but to bow and take their leave. Jin Hongye, still holding a stack of banknotes in his hand, followed Jin San out of the main hall.
At first, the two of them rode towards the military camp. Jin Hongye tried hard to hold his mouth, but failed in the end.
"Uncle, do you think my mother could have secretly given birth to a sister or younger sister for me?"
"What nonsense! That's not true."
"So, uncle, did you give birth to another cousin?"
“·······I think you are itching for trouble!”
Zhu Zhengmao's original thoughts were disturbed by his foul-mouthed nephew's two words. What nonsense? Who did he learn such shameful things as having a mistress from?
On this day, Jin Jiu returned to the palace with a solemn expression.
"This subordinate greets the master and the prince."
Sun Mingsi is writing a letter for Chu Huaibei.
"Well, Jin Jiu is here. Did Yang Sui speak?"
Chu Huaibei asked casually, and he didn't expect that Yang Sui, a coward who usually hid behind the Mongols when he saw them, could persist for eight or nine days under torture.
"Yes, Your Majesty, please take a look."
He handed over a thick stack of confessions with both hands.
Chu Huaibei took it and arranged the confessions in chronological order. The top one was about a sneak attack from behind on the city wall, injuring or directly killing the Queen of Zhenbei, colluding with the Mongols from inside and outside, and opening the city gate to let the Mongolian army enter the northern border.
During the Grand Tour in the fourth year of Jingren, he colluded with Mongolia and drugged the wolves in the grassland.
During the third year of Jingren's reign, he revealed the route to the Mongols in advance, and launched a surprise attack during the battle.
In the 22nd year of Chongde, he revealed his route to collude with the Mongolian army and launched a surprise attack while on patrol.
In the 21st year of Chongde, during the war with Mongolia in the northern border, he shot an arrow to attack the old prince.
All actions are under the orders of the third prince Sun Zehao.
Before, Chu Huaibei gave all the arrows that were used to injure him in recent years to Jin Jiu, along with the arrows that were used to injure her father that were kept by her mother.
The last sentence of the confession was that after the death of King Zhenbei, he immediately led his own soldiers back to Fengjing to defend the king!
“Hahahahahaha…”
Chu Huaibei felt like a joke!
Listening to the prince's laughter that sounded like anger and sorrow, Jin Jiu also felt that this world was extremely ridiculous.
Sun Mingsi put down the pen in his hand, reached out and gently pried open Chu Huaibei's hand that was tightly holding the confession, pulled out the crumpled paper, and smoothed it out on the desk.
After reading it carefully, his expression was as cold as ice.
As expected, if the upper beam is crooked, the lower beams will be crooked too. The throne that he had seized was eventually taken away by his son using similar means.
This one is even more cruel!
"No wonder the court hasn't responded even after nearly half a month of sending the urgent report."
"I'm afraid some people think I'm dead!"
Chu Huaibei stopped laughing after he had laughed enough. There was still no news from the court, so it seemed that someone had already taken action.
"How ridiculous! Didn't the Third Prince ask him to bring his men back to defend the king? I will grant him that wish!"
After Chu Huaibei finished speaking, he left the two people in the room and went straight out to find Deng Ran.
"Uncle Deng, please prescribe some medicine for me to relieve my internal injuries. I will lead my troops to attack Fengjing within three days!"
Deng Ran's words "Don't do anything stupid" were stuck in his mouth and he couldn't utter them.
"Huaibei, have you made up your mind?"
Deng Ran stared into Chu Huaibei's eyes and stopped calling her Prince.
"I've made up my mind. Let's boil the medicine. I'll go to my mother now."
Chu Huaibei looked straight ahead.
"Okay, I promise you, but for the next six months, you have to listen to me and take your time to recover."
"Okay, Uncle Deng, thank you."
Deng Ran waved his hand to signal her to leave quickly. He was really impressed by her.
Chu Huaibei first returned to the main hall, put the confession in his sleeve, and hurried to the concubine's courtyard.
"Mother!"
The concubine was checking accounts with Aunt Wen. Every time there was a war, mobilizing supplies was no small matter.
"What's the matter?"
Chu Huaibei took the brush from his mother's hand, put it back on the table, and then put the confession in her hand.
"Mother, please read this confession first."
The toffee looked through the pictures one by one, and her brows furrowed more and more as she looked.
"That's too much!"
“Bang!”
The concubine slammed the confession on the desk, no longer hiding the anger in her heart.
The father is not a good person, and the son is even less so!
For the sake of that throne, he actually dared to collaborate with the enemy and sell out his country! He even ignored millions of people!
"Mother, I plan to bring 50,000 soldiers back to Fengjing in three days to support the king. Since Sun Zehao has this need, I will satisfy him."
"When the time comes, I will announce his crimes to the world!"
"Besides, isn't the imperial court always on guard against a rebellion by the Zhenbei Palace? That would suit their wishes. I, Chu Huaibei, will take over this northern border."
On the way here, Chu Huaibei had made up her mind that since Daxia didn't want the Northern Territory, she would accept it.
No wonder Chu Huaibei died so easily in the original book. His feelings were just stepping stones for others.
No matter how deliberate or unintentional it was, no one would have thought that a prince would actually collaborate with the enemy and allow the Mongols to burn, kill and loot on the territory of Daxia.
It is neither morally nor logically correct. She, the person involved, is already dead and no one knows the details.
If she hadn't had this weapon made, she couldn't guarantee that she could hold the city even if the 200,000-strong Mongolian army attacked.
"Okay, go ahead."
Seeing that Chu Huaibei had made up his mind, the Concubine Dowager no longer tried to persuade him as she had done in the past. She said that it was because the Zhenbei Palace was too obedient that the group of people acted so recklessly.
The concubine was thinking in her mind that since they were ready to fall out, she would no longer have to hide the caravan in her hands and should bring it all out in the open.
"Thank you, mother. I still need you to worry about some of the military logistics. Please wait for me to come back at home."
"Well, mother believes in you. Since you have gone to Fengjing, please keep an eye on your grandparents."
"Don't worry, mother, your son will save you money."
Chu Huaibei came out of his mother's yard and looked up at the gloomy sky.
Today, it's time for a change.
