Chapter 132: The Artillery Battalion Strikes Might

Listening to Prime Minister Gong's words, General Dart Banner's eyelids jumped, and he always felt that there was something strange somewhere.

"I wonder what the emperor plans to do with this batch of gold mines?" The tip of Prime Minister Gong's tongue resisted the fishy smell and surged upward, but he looked at Emperor Mingwen very unwillingly, at that moment, his heart was like ashes.

After strategizing for so many years, all the hopes for the rest of his life are on this gold mine, and he has been cautious, how did Emperor Ming Wen find out?

Or does it mean that Emperor Wen has already found out, but he just doesn't mention it and has been looking for a suitable opportunity?

No, it shouldn't be like this, Prime Minister Gong's brain was spinning rapidly, and he couldn't remember where the flaws were exposed.

The place was inaccessible, and it was discovered by a very serendipitous chance, and not many people knew about it, most of them were already dead.

Emperor Mingwen looked at the face of the palace prime minister constantly changing, and knew that the other party must be unwilling, so he squinted his eyes at the general of the dart banner and signaled to the other party to say.

The general of the dart banner who received the hint was a little uncomfortable, and said stubbornly: "The emperor is wise, and immediately ordered the selection of more than 1,000 mining workers, registered in the register, and gave five taels of silver every month, everyone has a wife and a child in the family, if you dare to hide it, it will affect the wife and the child, the light is ten years, the heavy is thirty years, and the gold mined is directly sent to the surrounding arsenals to recruit troops and horses, and 30,000 people were summoned in just two days." ”

Prime Minister Gong shook his body when he heard this, and doing this step in such a short period of time shows that the other party has already arranged it, and it will not happen overnight.

"It's thanks to General Dart Banner that he was able to unearth this gold mine." Emperor Mingwen was in a very good mood and laughed.

This smile was too dazzling for Prime Minister Gong.

Remember the URL

"Xiangye, General Dart Banner has made such an important contribution, how do you say I should reward it."

Emperor Mingwen pretended to look distressed, and the general of the dart flag knelt on the ground with weak legs when he heard this: "Your Majesty, the last general just went to suppress the bandits, and what he inadvertently discovered was not the credit of the last general alone, but all the credit of the Imperial Forest Army." ”

"Look, General Dart Banner is still humble." Emperor Mingwen stood up very affectionately with the general of the dart flag: "How about I plan to make you the king of the county." ”

No matter how high the title is, it is a false name, but in the eyes of outsiders, the dart flag general is deeply favored by the emperor, and under the implicit questioning eyes of Emperor Mingwen, the dart flag general has no choice but to grit his teeth and thank him.

Not only that, Emperor Mingwen also canonized the two daughters of the Dart Banner General, who is now King Li Junwang, as the county lord.

"The Emperor's ......" was a great honor to smash on King Li Jun's head, not only did he not feel happy, but he was cold all over his body.

"Don't shirk, don't say it's a little county king, even the prince is worth it, I'm just worried that there will be someone

was not convinced, so he temporarily wronged the king of the county. Emperor Ming Wen waved his hand and held a celebration banquet for King Li Jun, requiring officials above the third grade to participate.

The prime minister on the side was already completely desperate, his eyes were closed, and his two fists were clenched tightly, which would make him completely panicked, and he had no capital to pout.

"Your Majesty, the old minister suddenly felt unwell......

"Where is Xiangye unwell?" Chu Yunning suddenly spoke, smiling: "All the ministers are here at today's banquet, and without you, the head of a hundred officials, wouldn't you lose your interest." ”

Looking at the bright smile on Chu Yunning's face, Prime Minister Gong was panicked again, needless to say, such a lack of virtue idea must have been thought up by Chu Yunning.

He now doesn't expect King Huai to find out that something is wrong and come to the capital in time, in the true and false news, King Huai doesn't have the brain to distinguish between them, he must have fled in the wilderness a long time ago, maybe he was accidentally ambushed and annihilated by others in one fell swoop.

"Thank you Chushang Palace, the old minister just didn't rest well, presumably he can participate in the celebration banquet in the evening after sleeping for a while." Prime Minister Gong temporarily changed his words, he didn't want to be probed by Chu Yunning.

Emperor Mingwen was also very generous, and waved his hand: "Grandpa Mo, quickly take Xiangye to the apse to rest and rest, and then let the imperial dining room make some snacks." ”

"Yes."

Prime Minister Gong looked at the two of them with the same hatred, and he couldn't wait to reach out and tear off the disguises of the two, it was too despicable.

If it was a confrontation with real swords and guns, he lost, so he willingly accepted it, but he didn't expect it to be planted on some shady means, so unwilling.

"Xiangye, you have to take care of yourself, Mrs. Gong is still waiting for you to go back, she is very angry."

Chu Yunning persuaded.

When the palace prime minister heard this, he suddenly stopped, and he really couldn't see the arrogant faces of the two, so he said: "Your Majesty, the old minister heard that several countries are privately discussing to deal with the southern end, I don't know about this, what is the emperor's plan?" ”

Sprinkle salt on the wound, and he will too.

The smile on Emperor Mingwen's face suddenly retracted, changed to a solemn face, and the corner of the palace prime minister's mouth showed an inappropriate smile: "The strength of the southern end is not enough to resist the four countries, especially the Yunlan country, the eldest lady of Chu is imprisoned by the Chu Shang Palace, it will definitely anger the Yunlan country, if the Yunlan country takes the lead in attacking the southern end,

How can we defend ourselves? ”

Prime Minister Gong cleared his throat, and then said: "Even if there is a gold mine, if you really want to fight, how can you raise grain and grass in such a short time, these soldiers have never been trained, can you go on the field to kill the enemy, the emperor, you must not underestimate the enemy, the south end still points to you to call the shots." ”

After saying this, Prime Minister Gong's heart was completely relaxed, he couldn't be aggrieved alone, the internal worries had not been resolved, and the external troubles should not be taken lightly, it was too early to laugh.

"In the opinion of the prime minister, what should I do?" Emperor Mingwen asked rhetorically.

Prime Minister Gong did not answer immediately, but turned his head to look at King Li Jun: "Although the king of the county has not led troops to fight, he is also a general who has led troops all year round, and the king of the county must have a different opinion on this matter, so you might as well talk about it." ”

Everyone's attention was focused on King Li Jun, who choked and thought for a while before he said hard; "In the opinion of the last general, the first is to release and appease Mrs. Chu, and let Mrs. Chu write a letter to Yunlan Kingdom, try to avoid war, if you can't avoid it, then you can only seek peace."

Chu Yunning raised her eyebrows, and the words went around and around and finally came around to herself, she showed her attitude: "Princess Yu'an was sent by Yunlan Country to provoke the dispute between the two countries, you don't have to expect her to write a letter to ask for peace, leaving her alive is to make Yunlan Country jealous, if Yunlan Country doesn't care about the princess's life and insists on fighting, it is useless for anyone to ask for peace, if she cares, she will naturally not send troops." ”

"Chu Shanggong, it's not right to say that, I heard that this marriage was personally selected by Princess Yu'an, but General Chu humiliated Princess Yu'an again and again, which made Princess Yu'an angry, and insisted on returning to Yunlan, Your Majesty, Princess Yu'an is also a delicate little girl, where do you have so many hearts, it's just that she has been wronged and wants justice."

"If you can reconcile without sending troops, it is naturally the best, the old minister means to let Mrs. Zhao Chu ask clearly, it is better to try than to sit still."

"Yes, what Xiang Ye said is very true, Mrs. Chu should be found." King Li kept nodding in agreement.

Emperor Mingwen's eyes twinked.

"Your Majesty, what the prime minister said is very true, why don't you summon your mother to come." Chu Yunning looked frank and unreasonable.

So Princess Yu'an was quickly brought up, and in just a few days, Princess Yu'an's whole person lost a lot of weight, and she looked at Emperor Mingwen in a daze, and looked around.

"Did the princess suffer any grievances in the Chu family?" Gong Cheng asked.

Princess Yu'an rubbed her head, suddenly pointed at Chu Yunning, and her eyes became fierce: "Slut, my father and queen mother will never spare you, and soon my father will lead troops to set foot at the southern end, and my princess wants you to look good!" ”

Chu Yunning was not intimidated at all, but stepped forward and pinched Princess Yu'an's jaw: "

I remember you said before that someone would take advantage of the chaos to let you out of the city, why didn't this person come to save you? ”

When the words fell, Gong Cheng's heart tightened.

"If you don't have this princess, this princess will wait to see your jokes!" Princess Yu'an only had Chu Yunning in her eyes, as if she was the only one who was the deepest enemy.

"Chushang Palace, Princess Yu'an is obviously stimulated, and it has only been more than a month since she got married, how can there be such a big difference, the prime minister has to suspect that the princess was abused, so she will write back to Yunlan, Emperor Yunlan feels sorry for her daughter, so she will send troops to seek justice for her daughter." Prime Minister Gong said.

Princess Yu'an immediately nodded: "Yes, it is she who bullies people, the father and the queen mother love this princess very much, and will never watch this princess being bullied, you wait, the father and the emperor will soon attack the southern end, and then you will all kneel down and beg this princess!" ”

"Your Majesty, the old minister thought that he could think of a way to make peace, and persuaded the princess to persuade the emperor of Yunlan Kingdom to stop sending troops."

There was a smile in Prime Minister Gong's eyes, since he was not happy, then everyone should not think about it, especially Chu Yunning!

"Prime Minister Gong means to hand me over and give me anger to Yunlan Kingdom?" Chu Yunning directly asked the palace prime minister's inner words.

Prime Minister Gong smiled undeniably: "Why not, in order for the people of the southern end country not to suffer from war and strife, is Chu Shang Palace unwilling?" ”

"Xiangye is looking forward to my death." Chu Yunning was not impatient, and directly removed a piece of human skin mask from Princess Yu'an's face, this person showed his true face, which was definitely not Princess Yu'an's face.

"Ahh The fake Princess Yu'an covered her face and looked at Chu Yunning in horror, and when Grandpa Mo saw this, he immediately recruited the guards to take down the fake princess.

"The real princess has left the south end ten days ago, someone deliberately let her go, Xiangye, guess who let the princess go?" Chu Yunning squinted and smiled at the palace prime minister.

Prime Minister Gong's heart sank.

"The princess's 2,000 elites were killed, but they were still able to leave the capital, how many people in the capital have such skills, Xiangye, does this matter have anything to do with you?"

Chu Yunning seemed to be smiling, which made Prime Minister Gong feel bottomless, annoyed that he was cornered by Chu Yunning again, and he was unknowingly fooled.

"What does Chu Shanggong mean, the original appearance and the princess are not familiar, how can they help her escape?" Prime Minister Gong flatly denied it; "The person is gone under the nose of the Chu family, this matter should be asked to General Chu, why did Princess Yu'an leave the Chu family for no reason, this matter needs to be investigated."

Chu Yunning turned his head to Emperor Mingwen and said, "Your Majesty, the princess has a letter written by the princess to the prime minister, please take a look at it." ”

She took out a letter from her bosom and handed it to Emperor Mingwen, which wrote about the situation of the Chu family, as well as some promises made by Princess Yu'an to the prime minister of the palace, and promised to plot against the Chu generals and let the Chu family unite with the prime minister.

"Your Majesty, this letter has never been received by the minister, this is slander!" Prime Minister Gong was very cautious, he never wrote a letter to Princess Yu'an, so this was only unilateral evidence, and it could not show that Princess Yu'an conspired with him.

Chu Yunning nodded: "Your Majesty, this really can't be used as evidence, if it weren't for Xiangye's aggressiveness, this letter wouldn't have been taken out, but it is a fact that the princess left Beijing, and if you dig deeper, you may not be able to find a suspicious person." ”

It seems that Prime Minister Gong is a despicable villain, and he actually slandered the Chu family without evidence.

Prime Minister Gong took a deep breath: "It's the prime minister's negligence for a while, don't blame Chu Shang Palace, the princess left the capital, and we lost the bargaining chips to negotiate with Yunlan Kingdom, what should the emperor do next?" ”

"Don't worry, Xiangye, this matter will wait for the celebration banquet in the evening, and it will not be too late for the ministers to study and discuss it."

Emperor Mingwen interrupted the words of the palace prime minister, and glanced at Duke Mo, who stepped forward and said; "Xiangye, you go to the apse to rest and rest, don't delay the celebration banquet in the evening."

The palace prime minister took a deep breath when he heard this: "The old minister thanks the emperor for his compassion and retires." ”
