"No, no..."

The eunuch hurriedly shook his head, obviously knowing at a glance that he was telling a lie.

"What the hell is going on? Please also make it clear to my father-in-law. ”

Wei Wuji took out a money bag from his arms, quietly stuffed it into his hand, and said softly, "Father-in-law, please tell me the truth!" ”

After all, he was on a foreign expedition and was not very familiar with the affairs of the court.

And not in the court, the control of things is also unstable.

Simple bribery must be there in order to get the truthful news from the mouth of the eunuch who passed the decree!

If something happens to the DPRK, it will inevitably be detrimental to his foreign campaign.

"It's not your business, colt. The eldest princess repeatedly explained that the concubine must not affect the war on the front line because of the affairs of the court. So...... The colt still doesn't know as well. ”

As he spoke, the eunuch pushed the money bag back to Wei Wuji, and had no intention of taking it.

"Oops..."

Wei Wuji was suddenly as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, grabbed his father-in-law's hand, and went straight into the back room, "Father-in-law, you have already said half of your words, can you finish your words in one breath?" How do you ...... Makes me more anxious! ”

"Ugh..."

The eunuch understood Wei Wuji's mood at this time, and knew that Wei Wuji would not stop asking.

If he didn't tell Wei Wuji, maybe Wei Wuji would go back to the court to find out.

In this way, it will affect the border war even more.

So, after hesitating and thinking about it, he said, "The horse doesn't know anything. A few days ago, Li Xiang found out that the general Wang Dafu colluded with the royal family of Zhao State, intending to cooperate with Sun Jin and annex Chu State. ”

"The emperor was furious, took Wang Dafu's military power, and put him in prison."

"But afterwards, the eldest princess interceded for her, and the emperor realized that the evidence given by Li Xiang was not sufficient, so he regretted putting Wang Dafu in prison."

"This is also the reason why the emperor did not take back Wang Lang's military power."

"Now, this matter is a bit deadlocked, the emperor is afraid of face and refuses to release General Wang, and Li Xiang continues to find new evidence to prove Wang Dafu's guilt."

"In fact, the emperor understands that all the evidence is circumstantial, and it cannot prove that Wang Dafu colluded with Zhao Guo."

"The emperor just doesn't want to admit that he wronged General Wang before, and he is even more afraid that General Wang will hate the royal family because of this, and he really should cooperate with Zhao Guoli."

"And... Since the last rebellion, the emperor's suspicions have become quite serious. ”

"Probably...... After he hesitates for a while, he will also take back General Wang Lang's military power! ”

When Wei Wuji heard this, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "How could such a thing happen?" The emperor is really confused! ”

"Horses, please be careful." The father-in-law of the herald reminded in surprise.

"Father-in-law don't panic, there are no outsiders here." Wei Wuji looked at him and said contemplatively, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be called... Chu Sheng? Right? ”

"The horse has a good memory, and it is Chu Sheng below." The eunuch nodded in surprise.

Of course Wei Wuji remembered.

Chu Sheng was a pen eunuch beside Emperor Chu, who specialized in writing holy decrees for Emperor Chu.

Moreover, there have long been rumors in the palace that Chu Sheng is the illegitimate son of the former emperor, that is, the uncle of the current Chu Emperor.

When he was a civilian, he lost money in gambling, so he went to the palace to hide his debts, and then became a eunuch.

When checking his identity, it was found that he was the son of the first emperor, but how could a eunuch be an imperial uncle?

So, slowly, he became the leader of the eunuchs and the most trusted person of the Chu Emperor.

The status is higher than that of the personal eunuch Wang Gonggong!

Wei Wuji can completely trust him, and Chu Sheng is absolutely good for the Chu State.

"Please go back to my father-in-law and return to the emperor for me, it's not terrible to be wrong, just change it? Isn't there such a saying, that knowing mistakes can improve greatly? Wei Wuji said seriously.

"Don't you understand, don't you understand?"

Chu Sheng was stunned, sighed and said, "If the emperor admits that he was wrong and releases Wang Dafu, should he return his military power?" ”

"The emperor is worried that he has wronged Wang Dafu, and when Wang Dafu regains military power, it will pose a threat to the royal family!"

"So that's the case..."Wei Wuji didn't think of this.

But he can be sure that before Wang Dafu, he was absolutely loyal to the Chu State!

After thinking about it, Wei Wuji had an idea, raised his eyebrows and said, "Father-in-law, I have a suggestion that can solve the emperor's dilemma!" ”

"Oh? What is the suggestion? ”

Wei Wuji turned to his desk and began to write a letter, then handed it to his father-in-law, and said, "You take this letter back and present it to the emperor, and the emperor will understand when he sees it." ”

"It's just...... I'm a little unsure whether the emperor will take my suggestion. I also hope that when my father-in-law arrives, he can inform me in time. ”

"Okay."

Nodding, Chu Sheng put away the letter and bowed, "Then I will leave." ”

"Send my father-in-law for me." Wei Wuji instructed the guards outside the door.

Send Chu Sheng away.

Wei Wuji sat in the room, rubbing his eyebrows, and thought carefully for a long time.

With his understanding of Emperor Chu, he may not let Wang Dafu go easily.

Because now, he already feels that Wang Dafu is a huge threat, and when Zhao State and Beiqing State join forces to invade, once Wang Dafu is disloyal to Chu State, then Chu State will be finished!

Emperor Chu would never take this risk.

"Lord, what's wrong?" Li Bai came in.

Wei Wuji didn't hide it from him, and told him what had just happened.

Li Bai exclaimed: "The emperor will not let General Wang go." ”

"You think so, too?"

"Hmm."

Wei Wuji said: "I have already written a letter for my father-in-law to pass it on to the emperor. ”

"I offered advice in the letter, suggesting that the emperor let Wang Dafu go, but did not give him military power."

"In order to eliminate Wang Dafu's dissatisfaction, Wang Dafu can be rewarded with gold, silver, silk and silk, and an official promotion of two levels."

"It's just that I'm worried...... The emperor will not adopt it. ”

Li Bai arched his hand and said: "Lord, I am willing to go to Luoyang, the capital of Ying, to inquire about the situation." ”

"Okay, there you go. If there is any news, send it back in time. ”

Wei Wuji was also about to send Li Bai, but he didn't expect that Li Bai spoke first.

"Yes."

Li Bai returned to the palace alone.

With his skills, as long as he is careful, he will not alarm anyone.

...........

In the next few days, Wei Wuji paid attention to Sun Jin in the east while waiting for Li Bai to come back with news.

this day.

Chu Sheng sent someone to deliver the news.

After Emperor Chu read the letter, he really didn't accept it.

Chu Sheng said in his reply that after reading the letter, Emperor Chu was indeed a little touched.

If in normal times, he would have adopted.

But now, there is an invasion of foreign enemies, and Emperor Chu will not take risks.

"That's exactly what I thought."

Wei Wuji put away Chu Sheng's reply and sent people to find Xiang Yu, Gao Shun, Wang Ping, and Wang Lang.

Wei Wuji said: "Recently, the palace has not been peaceful, General Wang Dafu... He was dismissed from military power by the emperor and imprisoned. Do you know about this, General Wang Lang? ”

"I already know..."Wang Lang looked worried and anxious.

He arched his hand and said, "Brother Wei, can you save my father?" He must have been wronged. ”

Wei Wuji said: "I called you here to solve this matter. ”

"Now, the Zhaoqing coalition army is still stationed on the border, threatening us at all times. And we're fighting among ourselves. ”

"General Wang Dafu has a very high prestige in the army, and once he is imprisoned, the army's morale will definitely be unstable."

"What's more, my Chu State can't find a replacement for General Wang, if I hand over the military power to a mediocre talent, isn't it a mistake?"

"So, I'm going to take you back to the palace and explain to the emperor. Asked General Wang Dafu to be released. ”

"Huh? Take me back to the palace? Wang Lang was surprised, "Will I ...... was also arrested by His Majesty and imprisoned? ”

Wei Wuji shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I will help you." Don't forget, I am the general of the expedition to the north and am responsible for protecting the country, and what I say, the emperor will not ignore it! ”

"Thank you, General."

Wang Lang couldn't help but be grateful, sure enough, Wei Wuji was more reliable.

If it were someone else, I was afraid that I wouldn't care about it.

Wang Dafu was imprisoned, and many people were desperate.

The decision to return to the palace, Wei Wuji had already thought about it.

is not only for Wang Dafu, but also for himself.

Because when he left Yingdu, Wang Dafu told him that he would deal with those with ill intentions in the palace.

But now, Wang Dafu has been imprisoned, and there is no one to deal with him anymore.

Wouldn't it be dangerous if those people were to attack him?
