Chapter 421: Emerge

Yun Xi traveled very fast, of course, far less than the messenger who delivered the letter, but much faster than when he came. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

However, this is natural, because Yun Xi handed over all the infantry to Cao Zhen and others to lead, and he took those important people to lead the cavalry back to the capital in advance.

When passing by Fengyang, although the time was already very tight, Yun Xi still stayed here for a few days. It's just that this is where the imperial tomb is located, and it's just that he didn't worship when he went north, so he had to worship no matter what when he returned home.

However, Yun Xi really didn't know what to say to the mausoleum of his great-grandfather, so he knelt for a while and came back.

But when he returned, another conversation awaited him, and it was a very important one.

……

"Fourth uncle? Why are you here today? Why didn't you agree to follow your nephew to visit the emperor's mausoleum yesterday? Yun Xi asked with some surprise at the uninvited guest here. At the same time, Yun Xi also gestured to the guards who stayed behind with his eyes, and after the guards gave him a clear look, Yun Xi continued: "Why doesn't the fourth uncle sit down?" ā€

Although Zhu Di didn't know what the guard's eyes meant, he could guess what it meant, so he sat down very intimately about a foot away from Yun Xi's seat.

Zhu Di said to Yun Xi: "I came today because I have a very important thing to tell you. ā€

"In the past, some officials and civilian officials took the initiative to join me and helped me march smoothly in Hebei."

Yun Xi just raised an eyebrow. Some officials saw something, but it was not strange that they were greedy for life and afraid of death, but turned to Zhu Di. But he believed that Zhu Di would not entertain him with ordinary things, so he continued to listen.

"There are two civil servants like this. One of them is from Suzhou Prefecture, and the other is just an ordinary small place in Shandong. ā€

"Your Majesty probably guessed it, because one of them is a Shandong person, it is easy to associate it with the rebels in Shandong, and not both of them are Shandong people, so it will not make people too suspicious."

"But I still felt that something was wrong, so I asked people to take a closer look at this person's past. In the end, it was finally found out that although he was from Shandong, and his wife was also from Henan, his father actually died young when he was a child, and the clansmen drove their mother and son out of the family. ā€

His mother remarried a man from Hangzhou who had come to Shandong to do business. But before the Hangzhou merchant returned to the south after spending half a year here, he showed an extraordinary reading material. ā€

"When his clansmen found out, they immediately brought him back to the clan, spent the whole clan to support him in his studies, and finally let him pass the imperial examination and become an official."

"In fact, his people have only been snubbed to him for less than half a year, and then they are all very good to him, and whatever the patriarch has in his family, he thinks of him first and then thinks of his son."

"But he just doesn't like his own people, and after his mother died, he took the person who was only his stepfather for half a year as his father."

Yun Xi was silent for a moment and then said, "These are all from your investigation? ā€

Zhu Di shook his head: "Only his mother married a businessman from Hangzhou was found out, and the others were interrogated after I captured him." ā€

"The five prefectures of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, although not in a province, have always been called together because they are very close to each other and have been connected by blood since ancient times. When my father was still alive, he strictly guarded against people from the five prefectures of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. ā€

"And I heard before that His Majesty also made some discoveries in the capital."

Zhu Di's words were not finished, he knew that Yun Xi would definitely understand.

Yun Xi was silent for a moment and then said, "What about these two people? ā€

Zhu Di said: "They are all dead. At that time, there was some chaos in the camp when he surrendered, and he died if he couldn't take care of it. ā€

Yun Xi didn't know if Zhu Di's words were true or false, but he naturally wouldn't continue to ask questions like how he died, just like he wouldn't ask why he told him about it now.

Yun Xi just stayed in his seat for a while and then said, "Fourth Uncle If there is nothing else to do, please go back." ā€

Zhu Di stood up, saluted and left.

When he left, Yun Xi suddenly lost his temper, threw the tea bowl in his hand to the ground, and said to Wang Xi: "Go and call Yang Shiqi and Guo Hongtao to me!" ā€

But before the two of them came here, an urgent letter of six hundred miles came to Yunxi. Yun Xi just looked at it casually at first, but after only reading a few lines, he was dumbfounded.

==========================================

River Disaster, River Disaster Mansion, suburb of Luoyang City.

There is a lake here, and there is a circle of trees growing around it, but unfortunately it is already winter, and all the trees are withering, and there are no lotus flowers in the middle of the lake, otherwise the scenery should be beautiful.

However, at this time, the people next to the lake do not imagine the beauty of this place in summer, they only care about promotion and wealth.

A general flag said to his own hundred households: "Zhang Baihu, these people are really, they committed suicide by throwing themselves into the lake knowing that they couldn't escape, and we have to fish up their corpses from the lake, otherwise there is no way to count the merits." ā€

Another general flag also said: "That is, not only did he fucking throw himself into the lake, but he also ran all the way from Dongchang Mansion in Shandong to Luoyang, and we chased us here from Shandong, which is really cheap." ā€

Zhang Baihu said: "Don't complain, it's not good for Lord Qianhu to hear it." But I know why they came here from Shandong. ā€

"One of them is a mountain selenium person, knowing that the mountain selenium is mountainous, if they can run to the mountain selenium, maybe they will be able to escape, anyway, they are just an unnoticeable remnant, and there are no important people, and no one cares if they run a few. So they kept running west, wanting to go to the mountains. It just didn't work out. ā€

As he spoke, several boatmen, led by the local government, came over and began to salvage the body. Naturally, these soldiers will not salvage it themselves.

One body after another was salvaged, and after a while the boatman said something to the people of the government who had brought them over, and the people of the government then said to them: "All the bodies in the lake have been fished out." ā€

The person who led the troops to suppress them this time was Chu Zhi, the commander of Xuzhou Wei, who did not get a battle in such a large-scale counterinsurgency battle this time, so he did not have any chance of promotion, so he was very depressed.

Fortunately, Cao Zhen also understood his depression, and although Chu Zhi was not Cao Zhen's old department, Cao Zhen still asked him to lead troops to recover the remnants. This allowed him to do some merit.

At this point, the recovery is finally coming to an end. Chu Zhi thought. Then he waved his hand, and the soldiers rushed up and began to clean up the corpses, identifying whether they were small soldiers or generals.
