Chapter 346: Death
.lΔβ
Because the remnants of Beidi supported Yelu Gu as emperor in the north, Lin Zhongchao did not plan to continue to fight in the north, as the prince suggested, the soldiers also needed to rest, and the large army decided to leave for tomorrow.
In this war with Beidi, countless weapons and armor were confiscated, and Lin Zhongchao took them to be repolished and distributed to the soldiers, and for the Beidi people who surrendered, Lin Zhongchao was not merciful and buried them all alive.
The Beidi people will not really surrender, and they will betray once the right opportunity arises. Lin Zhongchao will not leave anything to chance.
It's just that for the people along the way, Lin Zhongchao and the prince are doing their best to help them rebuild their homes.
For example, working with the soldiers to help them fix broken roofs and grow vegetables for cooking.
The people embraced it.
Therefore, Lin Zhongchao and the prince are so famous that Zhou Zhengzheng heard about it a few days after he left the city.
"Brother Chao, you are really alive." Zhou Zhengzheng decided to wait for Lin Zhongchao's return on the road that must be passed.
Lin Zhongchao received a letter from Amin.
Only to learn that Emperor Qingfeng actually announced that he had been defeated, Zhou Zhengzheng went out of the city to find himself regardless of the danger. Ah Ming originally followed, but he was separated from Zhou Zheng at the city gate.
"Zheng, why are you so stupid." Lin Zhong was in a hurry, "No, I'm going to find her!" β
"Chao'er! Who is she? The prince asked.
Lin Zhongchao said seriously: "Father, I haven't mentioned it to you yet, Ah Zheng, the eldest daughter of Grandpa Wu, is now with my fiancΓ©e."
"Really? I have been friends with Wu Guogong for many years, if you can be together again, kiss and kiss, it is really a beautiful thing! The prince was pleasantly surprised, "I saw Ah Zheng when I was a child, a very innocent and lovely girl, born smart. You are indeed a natural pair! β
"But father, she thought something had happened to me! Leaving the capital to find me, I was so worried and worried, I couldn't live without her. β
The prince frowned and said, "Chao'er, your father can understand your feelings, but how do you say to find it?" Heaven and earth are so big. My father thought that Ah Zheng was very smart, and she would definitely wait for us on the way back. If you rush to look for her, you won't find her. It's better to wait for her to find it. β
"But father, how can I be indifferent? How can I sit still? I really regret it, I should have thought of it, no wonder she didn't reply, it turned out that the emperor took away all the letters sent to the Duke of Wu and blocked the news. β
The prince patted Lin Zhongchao's shoulder and said, "Son, you can, you can definitely do it!" You just have to be calm now, otherwise, you really won't be able to see Ah Zheng! Believe in Father, as long as you go back well, Ah Zheng will definitely be waiting for you on the road! β
Lin Zhongchao felt his heartbeat stabilize a little, "Okay, I'll go back to the class." β
The prince sat down and drank Pu'er tea melancholy.
"Father, what's wrong with you?" Lin Zhongchao sat down.
"Why did the emperor block the news that we had won the war? Superchild? "The prince is puzzled, that is his father. Wasn't Emperor Qingfeng happy at his victory?
"The emperor doesn't want us to win." Lin Zhongchao sneered.
"Nonsense." The prince didn't believe it, "Could it be that the emperor still hopes that the Beidi people won?" β
"That's not it, and the emperor doesn't want Beidi to win, because, if Beidi wins, Jiangshan will not be his. But we won, we have troops and popular support, even if the emperor sits on the country, he will not sit steadily! The emperor wants us to lose both. In this way, the emperor can control us. β
The crown prince was silent for a while and said, "Chao'er, has the emperor really become so terrifying?" β
"Father, didn't you just become, the emperor has always been so terrible, it's just that my father doesn't want to face it." Lin Zhongchao said.
While the two were talking, someone came to report, and suddenly a troop came in front of them, and they also held the holy decree in their hands.
"Divine decree?" The prince was stunned.
Lin Zhongchao sneered, "Father, the emperor is really unwilling to let us go." I understand why he said to himself that we were defeated. β
The prince said, "Why? β
"Because the emperor wants us to die, the emperor first announced our defeat internally, and then gave us death, and when he went back, he said that we were killed on the battlefield." Lin Zhongchao said, "Believe it or not, this holy decree is to give death." β
"If that's the case, then if we don't die, won't the emperor shoot himself in the foot?" The prince still didn't believe it.
Lin Zhongchao said: "Father, if we don't obey the holy decree, the king wants the minister to die, but the minister does not die, it is to resist the decree, and the emperor has more reason to condemn us." β
The prince was sad: "No, it can't be. β
Lin Zhongchao said: "Father, let's go out to receive the decree." β
"I'm not going, Chao'er, you go and see what the Holy Decree says." The crown prince was already a little afraid of the holy decree.
He was afraid that this holy decree was really like what Lin Zhongchao said, it was to give them death.
Their father and son worked hard to conquer Beidi, fought bloodily, rescued the Ming Dynasty, and saved the people in the world, should they be given death in the end?
This is so unjust!
"Father, it's time to face it." Lin Zhongchao looked at the prince firmly, "For the sake of the world, go out, father." β
"Chao'er!" The prince called out blankly, and felt that although he was much older than Lin Zhongchao, he didn't see reality as clearly as Lin Zhongchao, "Okay." β
The crown prince and Lin Zhongchao went to receive the order.
Sure enough, as Lin Zhongchao expected.
When the eunuch's voice sounded, the prince's heart cooled a little.
In fact, it's not that the prince doesn't understand, he just doesn't want to face it.
Death!
The emperor actually gave the crown prince and Lin Zhongchao two white silks!
"Excuse me, why should we be given death instead to win glory for our country?" Lin Zhongchao asked loudly.
The soldiers behind him were all indignant, "If the crown prince and the king of Yu are going to be given death, we will all turn it back!" β
The eunuch was already trembling with fright, "King Yu, the slave is just a messenger!" β
"Keep these two white silks for yourself." Lin Zhongchao hung the white silk around the eunuch's neck.
The eunuch was so frightened that he knelt down, "Spare your life, King Yu." β
Lin Zhongchao smiled: "Take this white silk and roll!" Don't go back to the emperor, if you don't do things well, the emperor won't punish you lightly. β
This is true, the emperor even gave his own children and grandchildren death, will he still care about the life of a eunuch?
The eunuch ran away with his tail between his legs.
"Faint King! Faint! It's the other way around! It's the other way around! All the soldiers shouted in unison.
The prince stopped talking and had accepted reality.
Lin Zhongchao said: "Brothers, don't be afraid! With me here, I will not leave everyone behind! No one wants to win us! β
