Chapter 450: Wanted Nationwide
Huo Hong stepped forward and took out the letter and handed it to the crown prince Liu Rong with both hands.
The content of the letter is very simple, only a few words: Senior brothers, the little junior brother is going out to play, maybe the time will be a little long, you have to help me take care of the money in the warehouse next door, that is what I exchanged for my life, don't read it, little junior brother Ye Yunyang.
The prince's face sank like water: "It seems that he really escaped, and he is even more informed than his father's news!"
The emperor received information this morning that Ye Yunyang left early yesterday morning, which already explains the problem.
Qu Pingyuan walked to the next door, and after a few minutes came back and said, "The gold and silver are all there, and there is a room full of them." ”
These were all rewarded by the emperor after Ye Yunyang's meritorious service, as well as gifts from officials at all levels.
If no one was caught, the prince could only go back empty-handed.
"What, ran away?" said the emperor in surprise: "Who sent him the news?"
The crown prince shook his head: "I don't know, but it's definitely not revealed from the palace, because he ran away yesterday." ”
"Where can he go?" the Emperor asked again.
"I don't know, father, you know, Yun Yang is good at playing cards out of common sense, if he hides it, it is estimated that no one will be able to find it. ”
The emperor smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said, "Go and give the order, the whole country is wanted." ”
The prince was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Erchen obeys." ”
For such a big matter, of course he didn't dare to disobey his father's wishes, so he could only pray silently in his heart, hoping that Ye Yunyang had fled far away, and if he was caught, there would definitely be no good results.
In the prison, the dark tide - wet.
Several officials came to visit Li Fuchen and told him about Ye Yunyang's life experience.
Li Fuchen's face was full of excitement and said: "Great! Heaven will not kill me, heaven will not kill me! Since the kid surnamed Ye is a breed of ghost-faced horses, he is a traitor to our Han Dynasty, I killed him for the sake of the country, who dares to say that I am a murder nobleman!"
"Yes!" said an official, "We are planning a joint letter to you, asking the Emperor to expunge the guilt you have previously set, release you, and reinstate you." ”
Li Fuchen was very excited: "Okay, as long as the old man can be reinstated, he will definitely not forget your kindness, and he will report it later." ”
......
Within a day, the Flying Wing Bureau sent wanted warrants to all parts of the country.
The latest news came that a carriage was found eight hundred miles away from the capital, and it was verified that it was the one Ye Yunyang was riding in when he fled.
And it can be determined that there are three people in their group, in addition to Ye Yunyang, there are Dongfang Yixue and Chen Shilai.
However, the clues were also completely broken here, and Dali Temple sent several tracking masters, and even Duanmu Yu came forward in person, but he didn't find any clues.
The crown prince met the emperor and said: "Erchen has been tried, Dongfang Pingtai has no idea about this matter, Ye Yunyang didn't greet him before leaving, and Dongfang Yixue didn't either, he was completely kept in the dark." ”
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Since this is the case, don't hold him responsible, although he has the closest relationship with Ye Yunyang, but after all, Dongfang Yixue has not been married, so it is not appropriate to implicate him." ”
The prince nodded: "Yes, the granddaughter was abducted, and it is indeed inappropriate to be implicated again." Yun Yang has completely disappeared, how can I find it?"
The emperor regretted a little, in fact, in his heart, he didn't want to do anything to Ye Yunyang, even if he secretly helped the Qin army in Rongdi, he also successfully brought back more than 2 million Rongdi people, including more than 400,000 soldiers, supplementing and consolidating the northern defense line, an out-and-out great achievement.
As for the two battles of Nanshan and Nanban, it was the ghost-faced horse who secretly helped him, and the big man took advantage.
Since this is the case, Ye Yunyang is still a hero, and if he makes a conclusion based on anti-thieves, it is obviously unkind.
However, after all, he ran away, and the emperor couldn't do nothing, so how could he convince the public if he left it alone, he could only issue a wanted warrant.
After thinking about it, in fact, it was good for him to run away, although staying in Dahan could show his loyalty, but he would definitely be attacked by the courtiers.
For example, the old office of the former Ministry of War, as well as Li Fuchen, who had just fallen, and the former ministers of the vassal states, when the time comes, what good results can he have.
Two days later, three knights appeared near the Coast Guard camp, they were none other than Ye Yunyang, Dongfang Yixue, and Chen Shilai.
Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Chen Shilai, when he abandoned the carriage, Ye Yunyang proposed to let him return to the imperial capital on his own, whether it was to go to the Holy Temple or the Fenglin faction, the senior brothers would give him a face and seek a future for him.
But Chen Shilai didn't do it, he had to follow him alive or dead.
After some observation, Ye Yunyang determined that the camp was very quiet, and turned his head to look at Chen Shilai.
Chen Shilai turned over and dismounted, and quietly walked towards the camp.
Half an hour later, the three appeared in Dai Jingwei's tent.
Dai Jingwei first asked the three of them to sit down, and then retreated, letting the guards outside dissolve by themselves, and no one was allowed to approach the Chinese army's tent.
"Senior brother, why are you here?" Dai Jingwei asked in a low voice.
Ye Yunyang smiled faintly: "What, Brother Dai is not welcome?"
"Of course not, I mean it's very dangerous for you to appear here rashly?" Dai Jingwei took out an official document and said: "Mingren doesn't say secret words, this is the wanted warrant I received the day before yesterday, what the hell is going on, you are actually involved with the ghost-faced horse, is someone framing you?"
Ye Yunyang shook his head: "What they said is true, the ghost-faced colt is my father." ”
Although he heard him admit it in person, Dai Jingwei still couldn't believe it.
Like everyone else, he also paid attention to the previous confrontation between Ye Yunyang and the military department and the captain, and heard that Ye Feng was betrayed to death, and he scolded the guys in the military department.
Ye Yunyang continued: "They will think that I am running west to join the Ghost Face Legion, but I have to come to the opposite and come to the east to find you." ”
Dai Jingwei picked up the wanted warrant, threw it directly into the brazier, and said: "Junior brother, don't worry, I will guarantee your safety for my brother, you live in the camp with peace of mind, I will say to the outside world that you are my cousin, and no one will doubt your identity." ”
Ye Yunyang shook his head: "Brother Dai misunderstood, I didn't come to you to seek refuge, but to ask you for a favor." ”
"What's the busy?"
After more than half a year of construction, the Dahan Navy has begun to see its scale, dozens of new-style sea vessels have been launched, and sea trials have been completed with qualifications, and the coast guard is gradually being refitted.
He wanted to borrow a replacement patrol boat, on the one hand, he could avoid the pursuit of the Han government, and on the other hand, he could go to Daqin along the North Sea and plan to rescue the ghost-faced horse.
After listening to his request, Dai Jingwei's expression became very exciting.
Ye Yunyang frowned: "What, can't it?"
"It's not that it doesn't work, it's just a coincidence. Dai Jingwei smiled bitterly and said: "I can't hide it, I helped you build a big ship behind my back, which is almost completed, and when I was about to go to the imperial capital to report on my work, I will give it to you as a gift." ”
"Huh?" Ye Yunyang was taken aback.
It turned out that the last time he was an inspector, he once said something on Lieyang Island, saying that in the future, he would drive a big ship out to sea in his spare time and have a good time.
At that time, he looked at the vast sea and felt it, and then forgot all about it.
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.
With the help of Ye Yunyang, Dai Jingwei embarked on the road of joining the army from a little-known academy student, and then rose step by step until he is now the chief general of the coast guard, and he is also the chief general of Lieyang Island.
Not only that, Ye Yunyang also helped him quickly upgrade and sit firmly in the position of the main general.
He always wanted to repay, but he couldn't find a chance.
Since listening to Ye Yunyang's emotion, he took advantage of his position to ask the shipwrights to build another big ship while building a warship.
The ship was fifteen zhang long and three zhang five wide, and since it was built after a warship, each one was very strong, and it could withstand at least ten gale winds and waves.
It cost more than 300,000 taels of silver to build such a large ship, and Dai Jingwei used his brains and gave him a name on the books: Test Ship.
The explanation of the so-called test ship is even more impeccable, saying that it is to familiarize the shipwrights with the construction technology and use it to practice their craft.
In fact, this ship has higher requirements than a warship in terms of material selection and other aspects.
After listening to his explanation, Ye Yunyang didn't know whether to be happy or happy.
Coming to the Coast Guard to borrow a boat was decided after he had chosen the route to the east, and Dai Jingwei was like a prophet of foresight, and he had already started working a few months ago.
"I can't thank you enough. Ye Yunyang clenched his fists.
Dai Jingwei hurriedly returned the salute and said, "You are too polite, I should thank you." ”
Dongfang Yixue smiled and said: "You two are welcome, it's not the first day we met! By the way, General Dai, can that ship go to sea?"
"Yes, but it will take a few days. Dai Jingwei said: "I just went to see it the day before yesterday, and the boatman said that only the final finishing work was left, and he would be able to go to sea in five days. Due to the high construction specifications of this ship, referring to the experience of previous warships, there should be no problems after going to sea, and its long-distance performance is particularly excellent. ”
Ye Yunyang was excited, he really wanted to come to something, he originally just wanted to borrow a small sampan and finally get a luxury cruise ship.
Dai Jingwei lowered his voice and said: "We will take a boat to Lieyang Island early tomorrow morning, and when we get there, we will prepare all kinds of materials needed to go to sea, and when everything is ready, the ship will just be ready to go to sea, and there will be no delay." ”
The next day, under the banner of inspecting Lieyang Island, Dai Jingwei led three state-of-the-art warships to sea.
The new warship was built according to the sketch provided by Ye Yunyang, and the hull structure was three times stronger than the previous one, and the sailing speed was twice as fast as before.
At the stern of the boat, there is a large flying wing take-off and landing platform, as well as a hangar for parking and overhauling the flying wings.
It's just that now the emperor has not equipped the fleet with flying wings, so the aft deck is empty.
Due to the speed of the new ship, the sailing time that would have taken a day and a half was shortened to seventeen hours.
In the middle of the night, the fleet smoothly entered the port of Lieyang Island, although it was night, but it was still a hot scene here, dozens of semi-finished warships were neatly arranged in the dry dock, and the workers were busy.
Dozens of completed warships are parked in the bay not far away, and sailors are training their night sailing skills.
Although the prosperity here was created by Ye Yunyang, when he saw it with his own eyes, he was still deeply shocked.
The current Lieyang Island is simply a huge naval base.
