Chapter 258: Stretched
In an empty house in the northern city of the imperial capital, Yuan Zuo's face was full of despair, and those dusty tables and chairs could only show one thing, his so-called "henchman" had never been here at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Ah Heng sighed, although he had already expected it in his heart, he couldn't help but be disappointed.
Yuan Zuo knelt down in despair and said with difficulty: "Lord Duke, please save the emperor and grandson!"
Ah Heng: "Don't worry, but there is a glimmer of hope, and I won't give up! ”
Yuan Zuo: "My lord, why don't you order the whole city to be hunted!"
Ah Heng looked at Yuan Zuo's eager expression and shook his head: "No, in this way, not only will the people's hearts be turbulent, but it will also put the emperor and grandson in a dangerous situation." Even if we are looking for it, we should not make a big splash. ”
Xiao Lei patted Yuan Zuo's shoulder: "The matter has come to this point, and it is useless to be anxious." Before the Imperial Palace City was broken yesterday, we had already sealed off the entire Imperial Capital City. As long as the emperor and grandson do not break through with you, they must still be in the city—you better go home first to comfort and comfort your family, they must be terrified!"
In fact, in Xiao Lei's opinion, if the emperor and grandson are gone, they will be gone, and Yuan Zuo will be regarded as benevolent and righteous to the royal family. He was just a Janissary Commander, how could he be the opponent of Prince Wen's old fox? Not to mention the old fox, even if it was Ah Heng's little fox, a martial artist like them was not led by the nose!
Yuan Zuo glanced at Xiao Lei gratefully, he knew that he had been reckless yesterday. He was in a hurry to do so, and he had no time to return home, so he could only let the court worship and take away his children—his wife's family must have been so frightened that they stayed up all night!
However, Yuan Zuo did not move his footsteps - he was still guilty at this time, and without the consent of the young duke in front of him, how could he dare to leave without permission?
Ah Heng: "Brother Xiao, you can accompany General Yuan Zuo back for a trip!" He looked at Yuan Zuo again, and said with a slight smile: "After the general settles down his family, he will go to the Duke's Mansion with Brother Xiao, I still have a lot of places where I need to borrow the general!"
Yuan Zuo was in a complicated mood, and he heard that there was already a solicitation in the other party's words.
After a short time together, Yuan Zuo could see that the young man in front of him was wise and generous, and he was undoubtedly an object worthy of allegiance. However, the queen was single-handedly forced to death by this man, and it is difficult to distinguish between true loyalty and treachery! He is loyal to the royal family, and once he swears allegiance to this young duke, he may be on the thief ship!
Ah Heng looked at Yuan Zuo's hesitant look, and immediately guessed the other party's thoughts, and said with a smile: "General, don't think about it, even if you do things for me, I promise you your free body, and you can leave at any time if you want." ”
Yuan Zuo's face turned red, and the more tolerant the other party was, the more ashamed he became. At this point, he is not a person who does not know what to do, let's take one step at a time!
Yuan Zuo immediately promised: "Dare not obey your fate!"
Ah Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, compared with those careerists with profound backgrounds, he was still a flower after all. Fortunately, the Imperial Capital City is a treasure trove, and even if it suffers a disaster, there is no shortage of money and talents.
To be honest, if it is possible, Ah Heng can't wait to take it all away. But he also knows that this can only be imagination, talent is different from money, people have two legs, especially the eight hundred years of the empire imperceptibly, these loyal ministers and righteous people do not agree with each other, and they will send their heads over for you to cut off.
There is no way, but to put on a posture of thirst for talent!
......
Ah Heng returned directly to the Duke's Mansion with his own soldiers, and to his great joy, Li Hao and Shi Qian, the two generals, finally returned from the palace. Not only them, but also the generals of Northern Xinjiang are there. In the palace, only a small number of soldiers and horses were sent to garrison!
Ah Heng didn't care, Shi Qian told him that everything that should have been moved had already been moved, and even the gold leaf inlaid on the chair had been pried off by Li Hemp. In this regard, Ah Heng praised it, and immediately rewarded Li Ma with a gold coin - Li Ma was very happy, hid it in his underwear, and put it away like a treasure - he said that this was the first time he had received a reward, and he must keep it and pass it on to his descendants.
Ah Heng could only sigh when he saw it, did he really have the potential to be a faint king? Why did they all have the face of a traitorous minister! If he really ascended to the supreme throne one day, it would be difficult for him not to be a faint king! He felt more and more that a person like Yuan Zuo was indispensable, and although there were many problems, it was a clear stream that he urgently needed!
Ah Heng did not stay in the front hall to discuss with the generals, but took Shi Qian and Li Hao to the back house.
Ah Heng got straight to the point: "We're in trouble, the little emperor and grandson haven't arrived! He is likely to fall into the hands of Ye Chong's people." ”
Shi Qian and Li Hao glanced at each other, and suddenly felt that it was tricky! Even if the little emperor and grandson fled to the southwest, it would be better than falling into Ye Chong's hands! Without the little emperor and grandson, they would not be able to take advantage of Huo Qing's ambitions, and the old fox would only continue to lie dormant, and would never dare to rebel. In this way, wouldn't the Duke have to face Ye Chong's killing intent?
Shi Qian: "My lord, has this matter been confirmed?"
Ah Heng: "It's not wrong! The only thing that is gratifying is that I announced a strict ban yesterday, and the person who took away the little emperor's grandson is very likely to still be in the city!"
Shi Qian and Li Hao both breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at Ah Heng complainingly, thinking that things had no turn! This was deliberately making them worry! Since they were still in the city, they would go and find it!
However, the two of them instantly understood Ah Heng's difficulty, this news cannot be made public, otherwise the safety of the little emperor and grandson is worrying. Although the living little emperor and grandson seem to be more valuable, the dead little emperor and grandson can also be accepted by Ye Chong!
Shi Qian: "My lord, there is one more thing, you must also be mentally prepared!"
Ah Heng heard him say solemnly, and his heart was shocked: "What is the matter?"
Shi Qian: "Now that the hatred has snowed, the brothers in Northern Xinjiang want to know what to do next?"
Heng: "What do you think?"
Shi Qian: "Many people want to leave and hand over the imperial capital to the central army - they are already tired of this trip to the imperial capital!"
Ah Heng's expression darkened, this was really a house leak that happened to rain overnight! Without these trustworthy brothers in Northern Xinjiang, would he have to rely on those half-hearted generals of the former Central Army?
Shi Qian was also embarrassed: "I also lobbied them in private, but there are only seven or eight people who are willing to follow adults, and they are all singles who have not married a family!"
Ah Heng pondered for a moment: "I don't need them to help me for too long, even if Ye Chong comes back from the dead, it will be seven or eight days before he wants to return to the imperial capital! With this time, it is enough for us to prepare everything! The key is to convince the brothers for what reason - we can't tell them that we have to set up another mountain!"
Shi Qian: "Ah Heng, if we don't tell Lord Mengton frankly, as long as Lord Mengton agrees, I believe that the other brothers will not object!"
Ah Heng nodded: "That's all! Lord Monton is recuperating in the back, I don't know if Dai Luo's antidote works-"
Seeing that the two of them were talking and talking, Li Hao was about to go to see Mengton, and hurriedly interjected: "My lord, the most important thing now is to find the little emperor grandson!"
Ah Heng sighed, his head was splitting, and he couldn't wait to split himself into ten or eight pieces with a knife, and he lacked skills!
At this moment, the soldiers suddenly came to report: "Lord Duke, a little beggar has come outside, saying that he knows Chief Li and has something very urgent to report to you!" )
