Chapter 383: A Helpless Move
"Has the news been sent back?" Yu Wenhao lifted the tent and looked at the guard in front of him and asked.
"Report to the general, the news has reached the emperor, and the emperor has learned about it."
Hearing the guard in front of him say this, he thought, since Gong Yichen already knew about it now, Yu Wenhao had to talk to the border generals about this matter, so he looked at the surrounding tents and asked, "Where is the border generals now?" ”
When the guard heard Yu Wenhao's question, he quickly replied, "The general is in his tent now. ”
Yu Wenhao couldn't stay any longer, and after getting the answer, he went to the border generals as soon as possible.
When the general of the border saw Yu Wenhao coming, he raised his eyebrows, and he had a number of reasons for his coming.
"Is the general here because of the capture of the Ministry of Rites?"
"Exactly." Yu Wenhao saw that the border general was sorting books, walked over, stood in front of him, and asked, "You said before that you were going to communicate with those bandits, how is the communication now?" ”
Hearing Yu Wenhao ask, the movements in the hands of the border generals stopped.
"General, you also know that those bandits are not very easy to communicate, they are all ......"
"They are all used to being in the border all year round, and if they communicate now, presumably the other party will definitely grasp Liu Xuan's handle, so as to obtain more benefits...... That's all you want to say, isn't it? ”
Seeing Yu Wenhao say this, the border general was stunned for a moment, and then smiled a little embarrassedly: "Yes, that's it." Now it's a little tricky. We've been talking to them, but they're asking us to make a bid. ”
"How much is the other party offering?"
Yu Wenhao has never been exposed to these things since he was a child, and he is naturally very clear about the process.
These bandits captured Liu Xuan, just for profit, and now that the Ministry of Rites is in their hands, won't they be able to ask for as much as they want?
Seeing that Yu Wenhao was so direct, the general of the border crossed him and looked behind him, and saw that there was no one, so he raised three fingers at Yu Wenhao.
Yu Wenhao was silent for a moment. And then he asked, "Gold or silver?" ”
"Gold."
Hearing that he couldn't say this, Yu Wenhao crooked his lips and smiled: "They are really good ideas, how can he be sure that we will come out so much for Liu Xuan's sake?" ”
"However, if we don't want the Ministry of Rites, it doesn't seem to be too good......" The general of the border looked embarrassed.
"Then fight them."
Yu Wenhao's voice was indifferent, and when he heard it, the general of the border who had been bowing his head slightly raised his head suddenly, "Isn't this too good?" It seems that there is still room for redemption. ”
Seeing him say this, Yu Wenhao also knew what kind of idea he had, just to bring Liu Xuan back with the least loss of interests. But Yu Wenhao didn't think that those bandits would let go so easily.
Yu Wenhao shook his head and said: "I have seen too many people like this, they will sit on the ground and raise the price, not to mention whether the three hundred taels of gold can be exchanged for Liu Xuan, these three hundred taels of gold, to be honest, is not worth the title of the Ministry of Rites Shangshu." And Liu Xuan has been there for a long time, and those crazy guys may do something to him. ”
Hearing this, the border generals were silent.
Yes, he thought so, but he didn't dare to say it, on the other hand, Yu Wenhao, there was one thing to say, as if he wasn't worried about what would be affected.
The border general pursed his lips, and finally said: "Then let Li Huan go back to the emperor first, and see if he can bring down the will to raise troops first." You know, General, that if we don't have a will, it will be very difficult for us to do it. ”
Seeing that the border general said this, Yu Wenhao also nodded and said, "Then go to the emperor first." ”
As soon as the general Li Huan heard that he was going back to ask the emperor, he sent one of his fastest cavalrymen back that day.
"When did he go back?" Yu Wenhao looked at the dark sky outside, and then threw off the tent cloth in his hand.
Li Huan heard Yu Wenhao ask behind him, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's this morning, after getting the news from the general, I will go back and immediately send troops to find the emperor." ”
It's already evening this morning, and although it's said that it's going to be more urgent to come back and forth, if you really have the heart to come, you should have already heard this will.
Yu Wenhao's expression was cold, and he said: "Tomorrow morning, if the cavalry does not come back, we will directly send troops to rescue the Ministry of Rites." ”
Li Huan was a little surprised by these words, and he frowned. "But the emperor's side...... How do we explain it? ”
"The emperor doesn't need to explain too much, if there is something, I'll resist it."
Seeing that Yu Wenhao said this, Li Huan also knew that he couldn't stop it, so he could only nod and say, "I listen to the general." ”
The next morning, the cavalry sent out had not yet returned, and Yu Wenhao was ready to go to the bandits.
The battle was successful, Liu Xuan was rescued, and Yu Wenhao was unscathed.
"General...... Are you already packing? Li Huan, who had just entered the tent, saw Yu Wenhao packing up his baggage, and watched Yu Wenhao's movements with stunned eyes.
He had just received the news that Yu Wenhao had been impeached, Gong Yichen wanted Yu Wenhao to return to Beijing and Liu Xuan continued to envoy to the desert country, and he originally wanted to discuss with Yu Wenhao what to do next, but he didn't expect to see Yu Wenhao already packing up his things as soon as he came, and his movements did not stop at all.
When Yu Wenhao heard Li Huan's voice, he didn't look at him, and said directly: "Yes, I received the news, and the emperor summoned me back to the palace." ”
"But General, this is not your problem, the emperor has not issued an order for a long time, we have limited time, and you can be forgiven for doing this."
Hearing this, Yu Wenhao's actions slowed down, he turned his head to look at Li Huan, and said: "Don't say this in front of the emperor, I offended the emperor's heavenly prestige and led troops to fight privately, it was my fault." ”
After Yu Wenhao finished speaking, he pulled a horse with something and went back, without showing any dissatisfaction during the period. Li Huan looked at Yu Wenhao's back and sighed heavily.
Since Yu Wenhao returned to the court, Gong Yichen was like going through a process to ask Yu Wenhao for his guilt.
And Yu Wenhao also admitted it all, and directly let Gong Yichen be punished.
Lin Jiujiu heard the news that Yu Wenhao had returned to Beijing and was impeached, and when he learned that Gong Yichen was asking for the crime, he wanted to enter the palace to find Gong Yichen.
It's just that Gong Yichen refused to see her, and even the palace gate didn't let her in.
Lin Jiujiu had no choice but to kneel in front of the palace gate, thinking that Gong Yichen could know about his actions and see her.
