Chapter 532: Persuasion
When Governor Lei came back with his troops, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the scene of the camp in full swing.
A cauldron set up in the open air was steaming, the faces of the soldiers around the bonfire were shining, and even the sound of singing accompanied by the smell of food.
What's going on?
After being stunned, it was a great joy.
Didn't the King of Kaiyang solve Luo Chi?
Lei Dadu rushed over and shouted to the prince.
"Governor Lei is back, what's the situation?"
Referring to today's battle, Governor Lei was very happy: "Thanks to the help of the prince, let the lower officials free up their hands to clean up the remnants of King Jingbei." β
"Congratulations to Governor Lei on his victory."
"It's not a big victory, it's just to defeat the stragglers, or let the king of Jingbei run away." Governor Lei was modest, and asked Wei Han instead, "How is the battle situation of the prince today?" The Chaoyang Army is all elite, so it must have not made Luo Chi feel better. β
"Didn't fight."
"What?" Governor Lei was stunned.
Wei Han said calmly: "I went into the city today to discuss with Uncle Luo, and I plan to return to Beijing together." β
Governor Lei thought he had heard it wrong, and said with a forced smile: "Don't make such jokes with your subordinates. β
Why did he hear every word that King Kaiyang said clearly, but he didn't understand it when he got together.
What the hell is "Uncle Luo"?
Wei Han raised his eyebrows and glanced at Governor Lei, and said lightly: "This king won't be joking. β
They are unfamiliar.
Governor Lei put away his smile and became serious: "What does the prince mean?" β
That "Uncle Luo", shouldn't it refer to Luo Chi?
Governor Lei thought so, and put his hand on the scabbard.
Wei Han didn't seem to see Governor Lei's movements, and his expression was still calm: "Governor Lei, let's go to the tent and sit down and talk." β
Governor Lei was unmoved: "There's no need to sit down and talk, the prince has something to say." β
By now, he has figured it out, King Kaiyang is hooking up with Luo Chi, intending to seek power and usurp the throne!
Being able to command the three major battalions of the forbidden army, Lei Ming's loyalty to Emperor Yong'an is naturally unquestionable.
"Governor Lei should know the reason why Governor Luo fled the capital, right?" Wei Han asked.
Governor Lei frowned: "The Lu of the Eater, the matter of loyalty to the King, no matter what the reason, as the commander of Jinlinwei, he betrayed the capital is a big rebellion!" β
Of course he heard about the reason, it is said that the emperor listened to the words of the national teacher, and for the princess of Changle, he wanted to sacrifice to the god with a woman born on the seventh day of the seventh month of the seventh month of Wuchen year, and it happened that Luo Chi's favorite daughter was born on that day.
But in his opinion, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die, how can he defect for the sake of a daughter.
"There's something that Governor Lei may not have had time to hear about yet."
Governor Lei sneered: "The matter of the prince's Qingjun's side, the lower officials have also heard about it." β
Wei Han smiled slightly: "This king didn't mean this. β
"What's that?"
"Later, it developed to the point that all young women in the city were killed, and the daughter of the Governor of Lei was no exceptionβ"
"Impossible!" Governor Huo Ran's color changed, and he couldn't believe what he heard at all.
Wei Han pointed to the tent not far away: "Governor Lei, let's sit down and talk slowly." β
Governor Lei's face continued to change, and he finally nodded.
The two walked into the tent.
"Say it." Governor Lei said with a tense face.
Wei Han looked at him and said in a light tone: "Has Governor Lei not received a letter from his family for a while?" β
Governor Lei's heart skipped a beat, and he tried his best to keep his composure.
"In fact, because Jin Linwei captured Miss Lei, he was worried that the Governor of Lei, who was leading the troops, would hear the news, and he would have already taken control of the Lei Mansion."
Governor Lei couldn't believe it: "Such a ridiculous thing, the prince thinks I will believe it?" β
Wei Han chuckled: "In terms of the weight of the recipient, how does Governor Lei think it compares to Governor Luo?" β
Lei Dadu was stunned.
Jin Linwei is responsible for the security of the imperial city, and the responsibilities of the three major battalions are mainly to defend the capital and defend against foreign enemies.
Wei Han asked again: "How is Miss Lei compared to Miss Luo?" β
Governor Lei was silent.
If the emperor can make a move on Luo Chi's beloved daughter, he will naturally be able to make a move on his daughter.
The appearance of his daughter came to Governor Lei's mind.
He has three sons, only one daughter, although he is not spoiled like Miss Luo, he has been treated as a pearl since he was a child.
Thinking that something happened to his daughter, Governor Lei suddenly felt like a knife.
At this time, he suddenly understood Luo Dadudu's mood a little, and secretly laughed at himself: It turned out that only when things fell on his head could he empathize.
Of course, even so, he will not do anything rebellious like Luo Chi.
Governor Lei suppressed his chaotic thoughts and said coldly: "If the prince wants to persuade Lei with this, then there is no need to talk about it." β
"The emperor is sick."
Governor Lei was taken aback: "Your Majesty, he-"
"Maybe we need a prince who can preside over the overall situation."
Governor Lei couldn't sit still: "Does the prince want to replace him?" β
"The king has no interest in that seat." Wei Han said coldly.
"What does the prince mean?" Governor Lei stared at Wei Han and asked.
"The only son of the Governor of Luo is not his own son, but the real orphan of the King of Zhennan, with the secret edict of Taizu in hand......"
After listening to this, Governor Lei's face was very exciting: "Taizu's secret edict...... Did the prince see it? β
Wei Han nodded and said, "In this situation, this king feels that it is natural to return the throne to the Qi family, and it is also the most convincing choice. What does Governor Lei think? β
Governor Lei fell into complete silence.
If something happens to the emperor, the rebellious vassal king is compared with the orphan of the king of Zhennan who holds the secret edict of Taizu, and it is obvious that the latter is more justified.
There was silence in the tent for a long time, and the excitement outside the tent became more and more obvious.
Wei Han waited quietly.
Finally, Governor Lei asked in a dumb voice: "How can I believe that what the prince said is true?" β
Wei Han smiled: "I told Governor Lei that these are unbearable to see each other in battle. If the governor of Lei Dadu really wants to fight, this king will naturally accompany him. β
Lei Dadudu's face changed slightly.
Wei Han pointed to the outside of the tent: "Governor Lei listened to those laughter, I don't know what the scene was after the fight?" β
Governor Lei walked to the tent and looked out.
It was already time to start the meal, and the soldiers who were sitting around eating meat were talking and laughing, and some of them were in a hurry to sing country songs.
Lei Dadudu's expression was constantly changing, and his heart struggled.
I don't know how long it took, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind: "If what the prince said is true, Lei is willing to escort the orphan of King Zhennan into Beijing!" β
It can't be fake, it can't be fake, if King Kaiyang deceives him, it's not too late to fight to the death.
Wei Han raised his lips and smiled: "Then it's hard to be the Governor of Lei." β
The two negotiated, and soon got in touch with Governor Luo.
After a secret discussion between the three parties, the next day they gathered troops to wipe out the remnants of the King of Jingbei, took the head of King Xiang of Jingbei, and the army went to the capital.
