Chapter 404: And the book
As soon as He Xin went to find Wang Depu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince got the news.
The prince smiled slightly, and said to his subordinates: "When the time comes, let people scatter all the evidence, and be sure to end this matter before Lu Zheng comes back!" ”
"Yes, Your Highness." The subordinates responded with their jaws bowed, and then, according to the prince's instructions, went down to make arrangements.
Actually, the evidence is not nothing, it's just that the prince has been holding on to it and not letting people out.
And the effect of multi-party pulling is also deliberately created by him, in order to make Wang Depu and his party relax their vigilance.
Lu Zheng is fighting outside, these villains take this opportunity to murder him, and the prince will definitely not allow it.
In order to make Lu Zheng feel at ease to fight outside, the prince had to temporarily suppress this case, giving Wang Depu and his party a false impression, making them think that all their minds were on this case.
In this way, one made Wang Depu and his party relax their vigilance, and the other was a deterrent at the same time, so that they no longer dared to act rashly.
As it turned out, the crown prince's decision was right.
He did rely on this case to successfully contain Wang Depu, so that he no longer dared to act at will.
However, the traitor who appeared later also made the prince very concerned.
Wang Depu kept a close eye on him, and he really didn't see him move again.
However, the prince, like Lu Zheng, did not believe that the traitor really betrayed Nanzhao only for the sake of gold and silver.
But suspicion is just suspicion after all, and if you want to convict, everything must be based on evidence.
However, this matter is too difficult to investigate, and this traitor seems to have no connection with the officials on Yejing's side, so even if he investigates, he is afraid that he will not find anything.
Therefore, the prince's focus has always been on the cases of Wang Yan and Yang Ye.
In the end, I checked and checked, but I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain!
Thinking of the person he finally found, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled very unkindly.
I hope Wang Depu will be proud when the time comes, he will wait and see.
......
Northwest.
Lu Zheng explained the matter of his soldiers leaving for Beijing, and went to find Wen Tao.
He always felt that Wen Tao had been avoiding him these days.
He didn't know why Wen Tao was doing this, so he wanted to ask Wen Tao in person.
I've been busy fighting for the past few days, and I haven't been able to take care of this matter, and now that I can't be idle, I naturally want to ask about this matter.
Lu Zheng asked people and learned that Wen Tao was packing up his things in the camp tent, so he went straight to look for him.
As soon as I arrived at Wen Tao's tent, I saw that people were really inside.
"General Lu." When Tingfeng saw Lu Zheng coming in, he hurriedly stopped what he was doing and saluted and said hello.
Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "You are busy with you, I will talk to your son-in-law." ”
Listening to the wind, there was some worry in his eyes.
What did Lu Shizi say to their young master? Could it be that he knew the young master's intentions, so he came to question the young master?
Listening to the wind absentmindedly packing up his things, Wen Tao was also a little uncomfortable.
To be honest, he hasn't figured out how to face Lu Zheng yet, so he has been avoiding Lu Zheng these days.
But now, Lu Zheng has come to the door, and he is afraid that he will really hurt his brotherhood if he hides again.
"You're here, everything in the army has been explained?" Wen Tao asked in an unnatural tone.
Lu Zheng frowned and replied: "There is nothing to explain in the army, they are not following me for the first time, they all know what to do, Wen Tao, I came to ask you, what's wrong?" Are you uncomfortable and hiding it from me? ”
After all, Wen Tao is the first to come back to the northwest, and the environmental conditions in the northwest are so bad, Lu Zheng is afraid that Wen Tao will not be able to stand it, but he refuses to tell himself.
To be honest, he was worried about Wen Tao.
However, Wen Tao is a man after all, so Lu Zheng didn't dare to ask him directly if he was not suitable for this kind of place, for fear of hurting his brother's self-esteem.
But tomorrow they will drive back to Beijing, if Wen Tao can't stand it on the road and gets sick, it will be bad, so Lu Zheng can't care about his brother's face or not, so he hurried over to ask.
Wen Tao is naturally not sick, but he is sick, he is also a heart disease, and he still can't tell Lu Zheng about his heart disease.
Therefore, Wen Tao could only talk about him left and right, and turned to talk about something else.
"If you return to the dynasty victoriously this time, Your Majesty will definitely reward you!" Speaking of this, Wen Tao is also really happy for his brother.
In the past few days, he has actually been quite conflicted in his heart.
On the one hand, he seemed to feel that Lu Zheng had robbed his sweetheart, but on the other hand, he felt that his idea was really dirty.
He likes An Sheng, but An Sheng has no intention of him, in this case, Lu Zheng and An Sheng are married, what does it have to do with him?
But sometimes, people are like this, if they don't understand the reason, they will definitely be able to think through it and let it go in their hearts.
If he really let go, Wen Tao would not have to hide from Lu Zheng, and he could face Lu Zheng generously.
But the problem is, he can't think about it!
Because he couldn't think about it, he didn't know how to face Lu Zheng, so he could only blindly dodge.
Lu Zheng listened to Wen Tao's words, then shook his head, "You don't know how this battle was won, it's not that I won, but the Huns themselves handed over the war and the letter." ”
It turned out that after Lu Zheng was injured a few days ago, there has been no movement on the Huns' side.
Lu Ming and other soldiers went to call for battle, but the strange thing is that the Huns, who have always been brave and ruthless, did not come out to fight.
This simply doesn't make sense.
When Lu Zheng heard Lu Ming's report on this situation, he thought that the Xiongnu were brewing some bigger conspiracy, but who knows, after five days of stalemate, the Xiongnu actually sent someone to send a letter to stop the war and stop the war!
After Lu Zheng received the peace letter, he immediately sent someone to investigate, and only after this investigation did he know that there was a civil strife in the Xiongnu a few days ago, and the new Xiongnu king overthrew the old Xiongnu king and ascended the throne himself.
However, when the throne was ascended, the civil war did not completely cease.
In desperation, the new Xiongnu king Mao Dun had to submit a letter of cessation of war to Lu Zheng.
When Lu Zheng received the peace letter, he was unwilling, but he had to report the matter to Emperor Hui truthfully.
If he thinks according to him, he should take advantage of the chaos to kill the past now, even if he can't destroy the Xiongnu, at least he can stop them for decades.
However, Emperor Hui agreed to sign the peace treaty.
The king's order cannot be violated, Lu Zheng has no choice but to obey the order to lead the army and return to the court.
Therefore, hearing Wen Tao's praise, Lu Zheng was not happy at all.
What he wants is not a reward, not a promotion, but just to ensure that the people of the northwest will not suffer from the war.
However, the emperor has the emperor's considerations, no matter how he is, there is no way for him to disobey the king's order in such a big matter!
