It is precisely because of the food that Baili Wuji can no longer recruit new soldiers to expand the new army, and can only transfer the original army for reorganization.

This is also the fundamental reason why Baili Wuji is determined not to directly destroy Liao, but to negotiate peace with Liao and rule the river.

Chai Rong didn't know anything about it, and after making the will, he was bedridden to recuperate, and the daily court meeting was temporarily changed to once every two days.

Half a month later, Wang Pu finally came back from Dading Mansion.

As soon as Wang Pu returned to Kaifeng, he was urgently summoned by Chai Rong, which shows Chai Rong's urgency.

Without waiting for Wang Pu to see the ceremony, Chai Rong drove out the people around him and told Wang Pu everything that happened on the way to the class teacher.

"Wen Bo, I'm waiting for you to come back and check for me to see who is producing the demon moth."

When Wang Pu heard this, he just nodded, he was Chai Rong's confidant, but he couldn't comment on Chai Rong's sworn brother and brother-in-law.

Looking at the haggard Chai Rong, Wang Pu didn't feel a sigh in his heart, the emperor was really born at the wrong time, since the death of the Tang Dynasty, the Central Plains has already formed a bad habit of "the emperor takes turns to do it, and he will come to my house next year".

Chai Rong in front of him is a person who values love and righteousness, in fact, if according to Wang Pu, this matter is easy to solve, if you trust Zhao Kuangyin and Zhang Yongde, then pretend not to hear; If they don't trust them, they will immediately order the arrest of the two, and they would rather kill them by mistake than let them go. There is no need to work hard, let alone get to the bottom of it.

It's a pity that if Taizu Guo Wei can live a few more years. Lay some foundation for Chai Rong, and it will be easier to come to Chai Rong. Wang Pu sighed in his heart again.

Chai Rong saw that Wang Pu was speechless, thinking that he was afraid of being involved. Then he promised: "Don't worry, Wen Bo, no matter who is involved in this matter, you can investigate it to the end." I give you full power. ”

Wang Pu thought about it, and persuaded hard: "Your Majesty." After more than two years of war, the imperial treasury was already impoverished, and the people were even more miserable. It is the time to clean up the government and accumulate national strength. The minister was frightened and dared to beg the emperor to put this matter aside for the time being, and leave it for later consideration. With the emperor Shengming. will be able to sympathize with the heart of the minister. ”

Chai Rong was stunned by Wang Pu's advice, what did Wen Bo want to do? Am I really getting to the point where I'm fainting? Could it be that Wang Pu has a very personal relationship with Zhao Kuangyin, Zhang Yongde and others, and is unwilling to investigate this matter? No, no. Wen Bo is my confidant. How can you abandon me? Chai Rong's heart was .......

Wang Pu saw that Chai Rong's expression was different, and knew that Chai Rong must have been moved by suspicion because of his words, but it was difficult to recover, so Wang Pu could only continue to persuade: "Your Majesty, the rumors stop at the wise." The Jiangshan Sheji of the Zhou State only belongs to the emperor, as long as the emperor is not chaotic and settles his mind, how can outsiders produce demon moths. It can't shake the emperor's position in the hearts of his subjects. The minister asked the emperor to think twice. ”

Chai Rong took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. At least outwardly calm down. Chai Rong was no longer in the mood to continue talking with Wang Pu, he did not doubt Wang Pu's loyalty, but obviously Wang Pu was no longer able to guess the holy will.

Chai Rong wants to find out the traitors who are in chaos and clear the entanglements in his heart, so that Zhao Kuangyin, Zhang Yongde and others can be innocent, so that he can use them with confidence and give them heavy responsibilities.

If this matter is not investigated, Chai Rong can't let himself think that this incident has not happened, he can't distinguish the loyalty of Zhao Kuangyin, Zhang Yongde and others, why did he put the heavy responsibility in their hands?

Wang Pu was too familiar with Chai Rong's character, and without waiting for Chai Rong to issue an expulsion order, Wang Pu changed the topic and said: "The minister was ordered to go to Dading Mansion to attend the peace talks between Ming and Liao, and he was about to tell the emperor, please ask the emperor to allow the minister some time, and the minister will briefly describe the journey. ”

When Chai Rong heard this, he realized that he should know the details of the peace talks between Ming and Liao, after all, this is also related to the interests of the Zhou State.

Seeing Chai Rong's acquiescence, Wang Pu recounted the details of the peace talks between Ming and Liao to Chai Rong one by one.

At first, it was a brief description, but Chai Rong was obviously interested, and gradually asked more and more questions, more and more detailed.

This has been said for an hour before it ends, and when the meal time comes, the attendants come in to persuade the meal, but they are all expelled by Chai Rong, and even Wang Pu can only continue to chat with Chai Rong hungry.

"Wen Bo, did Baili Yi really shoot at Shangjing?"

"Exactly. Yelu Jing insisted on taking Dading Mansion as the boundary, so Baili Yi led the Ming army to the north, mobilized the Ming army on the east side, and the Ministry of Culture on the west side of our military line to force Shangjing, and then ordered thousands of artillery salvos, and finally forced Yelu Jing to sign an alliance under the city. ”

"Good. Good. Good. Chai Rong praised three good words, "I haven't heard such good news for a long time, I want to reward Wu Xingwen, and in this battle, I will reward him for his military achievements." ”

Wang Pu looked at the excited Chai Rong, he knew that Chai Rong had been holding back the song for too long, and in the battles between the Zhou army and Liao and Zhubu, he had been defeated repeatedly, and it was rare to have two or three victories, which were also disastrous victories.

Now for the participation of the Ministry of Culture and Culture in this battle and to reward a lot, I think Chai Rong wants to expand the territory too much, but it is a pity that the national strength of the Zhou State is weak, and he cannot support Chai Rong's ambitions, remembering that Chai Rong once sent to himself the Zhuang words "Ten years to open up the world, ten years to search and raise the people, ten years to peace" especially echoed in his ears, Wang Pu could only accompany him with a smile.

Chai Rong was excited for a long time, and gradually he seemed to be aware of his gaffe, this battle was basically supported by the Ming army alone, to say that it was the strength of the Zhou State, except for him, the emperor, who led three thousand guards to accompany Baili Wuji in Qianzhou for a period of time, and only the 25,000 people of Wu Xingwen have been advocating for the Zhou State.

"No, if you really want to talk about it, Baili Wuji is my righteous brother, and the two countries will be an alliance next week, so it is reasonable for me to be happy about this." Chai Rong defended himself in his heart.

"Ahem." Chai Rong coughed dryly, "Uncle Wen, do you know why Baili Wuji didn't take advantage of the situation to destroy the Liao Kingdom?" ”

Wang Pu saw that Chai Rong's expression had returned to normal, and his heart was settled.

Wang Pu replied: "The minister thinks that the emperor of the Ming State does not directly destroy Liao for three reasons. First, after this battle, the Ming State had a serious consumption of national strength, and the Ming State was unable to continue to go north, even if it defeated Shangjing, I am afraid that it would not be able to withstand the counterattack of the Liao army. The second is that the ministers in Dading Mansion obviously feel that some of the important ministers of the Liao State who came to the peace talks secretly communicated with the Ming ministers, I am afraid that there is a suspicion of collusion, according to this, the Liao State is afraid that the day of destruction is not far away, and the emperor of the Ming State naturally understands in his heart that he does not want to spend any more national strength on the Liao State; As for the three.......
