Chapter 417: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
The Li family's courtship to the royal family has become the biggest laughing stock in the imperial capital.
Everyone is laughing at Li Fuchen, he has lived to a dog at a young age, even if it is for the Li family to prosper forever, and then fight the idea of Princess Yuying, at least he has to choose a grandson who can show his hand, and he actually chose Li Chengen, a guy with a bad reputation.
Even if it was not exposed by Liu Yuying on the spot, the royal marriage is not a trivial matter, it is always necessary to send someone to investigate the man's conduct, and the prince already knows that Li Chengen is not a good bird, and let Li Fuchen's boast fall wildly, sooner or later he will be exposed.
It is said that after Li Fuchen returned home from the palace, he broke one of Li Chengen's legs with his own hands despite the obstruction of his old wife, and ordered him not to leave the house for half a step for a year, and locked him in a small courtyard to think about it behind closed doors.
can make the old man so angry because he just found Li Chengen, and before he could open his mouth to scold him, Li Chengen first sued Ye Yunyang for his troubles, saying that he was bullied.
The unlucky Li Chengen didn't carefully observe his grandfather's face before saying these words, and he just said what Princess Yuju said, but the same scene is two completely different statements, the old man was angry on the spot, one Buddha was born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven, and he raised his hand and beat him.
The old man is a civil official, although he only has the rank of a martial artist in the Gathering God Realm, but cleaning up the grandson in the early stage of the Xuanguang Realm is a piece of cake.
If it weren't for Mrs. Li's desperate efforts to stop it, it is estimated that Li Chengen would have died on the spot.
When he went to the morning court the next day, Li Fuchen found that the eyes of the hundred officials were wrong, and they all had an obvious taste of ridicule.
He didn't expect things to spread so quickly, just one day's work, how did everyone know?
As the driving force behind the spread of news, Ye Yunyang said that he wanted to hide his merit and fame.
Even if he was ridiculed by hundreds of officials, the most important thing was that he suffered the cold eyes of the emperor and the crown prince, Li Fuchen stood cheekily until the end of the court meeting and left in disgrace.
Then, he took a letter asking for leave, lying that he was not in good health and could not go to court for a month.
The emperor waved his pen, accurately.
At the same time, news came from the north that the Great Qin Ghost Face Army and Rong Di's main force launched a decisive battle, and the battle lasted for two days and two nights, and Rong Di's army was defeated and fled.
This battle caused the vitality of the Rong Di people to be greatly damaged, the tribes fell apart, and the previous unity situation no longer existed, and it was difficult to resist the Qin army from the front, leaving only the strength of defense.
In this regard, the Han people expressed deep concern, just like the worries of the Qin people when the Southern Barbarian victory was transmitted.
Although Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty didn't say it, he admired the ghost-faced horse very much in his heart.
The Ghost Face Legion first took the lead step by step, gradually encroaching on the land of Rongdi, and because the speed of the march was very slow, it successfully bred the arrogant idea of the Rongdi people, and took the initiative to gather a large army to fight a decisive battle, and ended up with a tragic result of defeat.
......
Great Qin, at the junction of the north and Rongdi, the commander of the Ghost Face Legion.
He had just won a great victory, destroying more than 300,000 enemies, and his own casualties were less than 100,000, and the faces of the soldiers were all filled with victors' smiles.
In Daqin, the soldiers were honored to be part of the Ghost Face Legion.
This place is more than 100 miles away from the front line of the battlefield, and the ghost-faced horse has never been the kind of general who relies on brave charges to win, he relies on strategy.
The battlefield is changing rapidly, and he can always find a favorable opportunity to send his generals to defeat the enemy, and along the way, expand the victory.
Ying Qi walked into the tent, first saluted his uncle and aunt, and then took off his mask.
The first words of the ghost-faced colt surprised her.
"We have spies around us. Ghostface said.
Ying Qi's eyes widened: "Who is it?"
He shook his head: "I don't know, but there is definitely such a person, or more than one." It's more likely that this person is close to me, to the point where I have access to core secrets. ”
Ying Qi took a deep breath and said, "How can you prove it?"
"From the news from the Han side, several of my secrets have been learned by the Han Emperor. He said in an unhurried tone: "Some of these secrets don't even know to you, but Emperor Han knows very well, can't he explain the problem?"
Although the last strategy had helped Ye Yunyang get through the crisis, who would dare to guarantee that he would not be bad in the future if he was left with such a spy by his side.
So, Ghostface decides to get him out.
After thinking about it, he decided to leave this matter to Ying Qi.
Because all the confidants around him were suspected, and Ying Qi was extremely loyal to him and Princess Luo Yue, he became the best choice.
Moreover, she has the identity of Princess Daqin, it is more convenient to investigate the case, and with the advantage of her young age, even if she offends anyone in the process, the other party will not dare and will not hold a grudge.
Ying Qi frowned: "There are not many people around you who have access to core secrets, there are only a few of them, who do you want me to investigate?"
The ghost-faced colt groaned for a moment and said, "Check everyone!"
Ying Qi showed a look of embarrassment, these people are all hardcore subordinates of the Ghost Face Legion, and they have made great achievements, and it may be difficult to find clues from them.
Being able to mix up with the ghost-faced colt as a spy shows that this person is very deeply hidden, and he must be a person with a very powerful mind and city government, otherwise he would have exposed his feet a long time ago.
Princess Luo Yue stood up and said, "Kiki, this task is indeed difficult, but your uncle and I have no choice, so we can only leave it to you." ”
Ying Qi nodded: "I understand your two thoughts." ”
The ghost-faced colt smiled faintly: "How are you going to check?"
"I don't know. She told the truth: "When I suddenly heard the news, I was stunned, and with the trust in the suspect, I didn't know what to do for a while." Uncle, since you gave me the task, you must already have a plan, right?"
With her understanding of her uncle, he is the kind of person who does not make a move, and he must have a purpose, and he will definitely not be untargeted.
The ghost-faced colt nodded and said, "I'm going to use a trick to lure the snake out of the hole, first assign you a new position, create an opportunity for you to deal with these people, you can quietly leak some information to them, different people give different information, plus the Han spy network you mastered before, feedback the news, and then determine the suspect." ”
Ying Qi's eyes lit up: "It's still your thoughtfulness, this is a simple and direct method! People who are loyal to you will never leak information, only spies will send the information obtained back to Dahan." ”
The niece was so smart, Princess Luo Yue felt very relieved, and said: "It is not easy to lure the other party into the bait, at least it must be very important information to arouse his interest." So Kiki, you have to use your brains to get the other party to take the bait, and you can't tell him the real information. ”
Ying Qi nodded: "Don't worry, I know it." ”
......
In the Imperial Capital Temple, Ye Yunyang stretched his waist and walked out of the room and asked the eunuch standing outside, "What's the matter?"
The eunuch said in a respectful tone: "Your Majesty summoned Marquis Wu Ying, let you hurry up and enter the palace." ”
"What's the matter?" he asked casually.
The eunuch looked embarrassed, but still whispered: "I'm afraid it has something to do with the battle that the Ghost Mask Legion just won, Your Majesty is worried that Daqin will end the battle of Rongdi ahead of schedule and attack the northern border of Dahan while the morale is high." ”
Ye Yunyang shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then let's go." ”
An hour later, he arrived at the Emperor's Imperial Study.
Today there is only the emperor alone, and the crown prince has other things to deal with, so it does not appear.
As usual, he was given a throne by the emperor.
The emperor got straight to the point: "Yun Yang, it seems that we all guessed wrong, Daqin is far stronger than we imagined, and the first battle will greatly hurt the vitality of the Rong Di people, if nothing else, it is only a matter of time before they win the war, it is only a matter of time." ”
Ye Yunyang agreed: "Yes, in terms of national strength and strength, Great Qin is twenty times that of Rong Di, and it is not difficult to defeat the weak with strength. Your Majesty, do you want to meddle in Rong Di's affairs?"
The emperor smiled: "You little ghost, you are simply a worm in my stomach, and you can guess it." ”
Ye Yunyang said in his heart that this is not very kind, when we set out to fight against the Southern Barbarians, instead of stabbing in the back, the Qin people helped everywhere.
Now it's people's turn to fight Rong Di, but we want to engage in a conspiracy, which is really not a gentleman's doing.
But if you think about it, he will never say it, there are only interests between countries, and there is no affection to talk about.
The Emperor frowned and said, "I have received reliable information that the Ghost-Faced Horse intends to support King Bai Di, just as we did when we supported Meng Zhun in the beginning, and hastened the end of the war by means of military attack and Huairou. ”
Ye Yunyang said in his heart that it was impossible, and the ghost-faced horse was not stupid, how could he choose King Bai Di?
As we all know, King Bai Di has always secretly accepted the support of the Han Dynasty and is one of the strongest anti-Qin forces among the Rong Di tribes.
King Bai Di took so many benefits from the Han Dynasty and formed a feud with the Qin people, will he fall to the side of the Qin people?
Ye Yunyang didn't believe it, but this was what the emperor was most worried about, just because Bai Di was the hardcore younger brother of the Great Han, once he was taken down by the ghost-faced horse, the other Rongdi tribes would definitely follow suit.
He felt that the ghost-faced colt had taken a fancy to this, so he chose King Bai Di.
"What, Your Majesty thinks King Bai Di is unreliable?" Ye Yunyang asked.
"That's right, he's an insatiable guy, and if the Qin people give him more benefits than we give, he's likely to defect. The emperor said worriedly, "Therefore, I feel that I should send someone to beat King Bai Di, so that he will not do anything outside the food." ”
Ye Yunyang's eyes widened suddenly: "That person, it won't be me again, right?"
The emperor smiled, and then nodded: "Talking to smart people is worry-free." ”
"No, you promised to let me rest for a while, it's only been a few days before I changed my hexagram?" Ye Yunyang said unconvinced.
The emperor's face tensed: "Is it good that you played a lie first, we also said at the beginning, you have a position as the chief of the military department, what is the result? At the celebration banquet, you kid submitted your resignation to me in front of hundreds of officials, and you were allowed to break your word, so I was not allowed to regret it?"
He smiled bitterly, sure enough, he came out to mix, sooner or later he will have to pay it back, the truth!
The emperor said, "I know that you are definitely unwilling, and you will put back and find all kinds of reasons, so you should not waste your efforts in vain because I have already ordered someone to prepare the holy decree." ”
Your Sister's ......
No, it's your granddaughter's!
The holy decree has been prepared, and one more word is to resist the decree, which is too ruthless!
Seeing that he gritted his teeth and was silent, the emperor's heart blossomed. In fact, he himself couldn't understand why he liked to dig a pit for Ye Yunyang so much, and every time he succeeded, he couldn't help but be excited for a while.
He didn't know that this was a subconscious revenge, because Ye Yunyang dug more pits for his family, Liu Yuying was pit countless times, the crown prince was also pit several times, as for the emperor himself...... Hehe!
You know.
