Chapter 237: A truce between the two countries
In the next few days, the barracks was unusually calm, and Ling Zhiyang did not reward Chu Yun'er, but everyone looked at Chu Yun'er's eyes a little strangely, with a little fear and alienation, and if they met Wan Yichen, they would take a detour.
I heard that Beili retreated, the remaining remnants of the army all retreated to the territory of Beili, Beili's undead army was destroyed, heavy casualties, Beili Prince also lost a trace, in recent years it is estimated that Beili no longer has the manpower and financial resources to invade other countries.
The current monarch of Beili did not support the prince's western expedition, and this time in order to repair friendly relations and compensate for the loss of Xiqi, he paid hundreds of thousands of taels of gold and other tribute.
Emperor Xiqi was reluctant to march north from the heart, Beili first bowed his head, he was also happy to push the boat down the river, so he ordered the border pass to be strictly guarded, bury the soldiers who died, treat the soldiers' families well, and issue a certain pension, the Wuyang faction that went to the border pass to help was also rewarded, and will return to Wuyang in the near future.
In the imperial study, the Xiqi Emperor leaned on the dragon chair with a tired face, in this battle, Xiqi suffered a lot of losses, if he pursued by victory, he might be able to lay down a few cities to expand the territory of Xiqi.
But he didn't want to do that, the soldiers also had homes, both old and young, and when the enemy came to attack, they had to take up the sword to defend the country, and the enemy could sue for peace, and they could also put down the butcher's knife and become Buddhas on the ground, and he only hoped that his people would live and work in peace and contentment, and not suffer from war.
The mother of a country, the queen Sizi, became ill, lingered on the sick bed for many years, the emperor disappeared, his life and death were unknown, and he had no intention of going north.
It's strange to say, he searched all over the country, and Chen'er seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, why did he not see people alive and dead without seeing corpses?
"Holy Lord, it's late at night, let's rest"
Fuhai asked cautiously, seeing that the emperor kept rubbing his temples, it was estimated that the emperor's head disease had been committed again.
The person on the dragon throne opened his eyes, looked at Fuhai, who was waiting carefully, and sighed: "Fuhai, I am really old."
"Holy Lord, are you still young? You work hard for state affairs day and night, and you can't bear the iron beating of your body and bones, so you might as well rest."
"Hey, Fuhai, where did you say this Chen'er went? General Li said that the person was like the second prince, he, how could he not even know Chen'er? ”
"Holy Lord, this can't be blamed on General Li, His Royal Highness has always shown people with a mask, and there are only a handful of people who have seen His Highness's true face, in the war that year, His Highness was killed, and several generals who were familiar with His Highness were killed on the battlefield, then General Li was just a small lieutenant back then, and it is understandable that he can't tell the difference."
"But the people I sent said there were no silver-haired men in the army"
"Saint, the slave thinks that one of Ling Zhiyang and General Li must be lying, and General Li's words are more credible, the news of the second prince was passed by him, and the crime of bullying the king should be punished by the nine clans, why did he want to commit it, then Ling Zhiyang, I don't know"
"Should I send someone to check again? Hey, I can't stand this kind of stimulation anymore, I have rekindled hope again and again, and finally I am disappointed."
"Check, Shengshang, of course you have to check, in case it is Ling Zhiyang who deliberately conceals it, then again, he may not know that the person the saint is looking for is the second prince, in terms of slaves, the saint should send a henchman who has seen the true face of the second prince to investigate, and go directly to the military camp for an unannounced visit."
Emperor Xiqi's eyes lit up, and he slapped the table with his big hand, "Let Xuan'er go this way, let him go to Wushan in person, and secretly visit the military camp on the grounds of comforting the wounded soldiers, you go and spread the word now, so that he will leave tomorrow morning, go early and return early"
