Chapter 1187: The Reason for Knowing and Not Reporting
It happened suddenly.
Bai Song invited Hou Junji to sit down in the mansion and talk in detail.
Hou Junji relayed all kinds of things in the court one by one.
After Bai Song summarized the information in the court, the first thing that came to mind was how the Tubo Kingdom obtained the blueprints of the Shenwu cannon.
Seeing that Bai Song was most concerned about this issue, Hou Junji retold the statement that the court had changed the topic: "At this time, it is no longer important to worry about who leaked the drawings, the important thing is to quickly set off as a whole army to support the front line." ”
Bai Song shook his head: "This matter must be understood clearly before sending troops." If we rush into the army without even knowing this matter, if any of us can leak the drawings of the Shenwu cannon, it is also possible to leak other secrets. ”
Seeing that Bai Song was so determined, Hou Junji's heart sank, and he hurriedly said: "But the battle on the front line is tense, and I am afraid that the matter of the drawings will not be found out in a day or two." ”
"General Hou is here later, I'll investigate, if there is no problem, it is estimated that there will be results in two or three days."
After speaking, without waiting for Hou Junji's reaction, he walked out of the living room and turned towards the inner courtyard.
Now, the transmission of news from the top and bottom of the Beiding Mansion is all managed by the lord of Mingzhu County, and Bai Song can only know about the leakage of the Shenwu cannon drawings through the Ming monarch.
As soon as he arrived at the inner courtyard, the Lord of Mingzhu was waiting at the door, as if he knew in advance that Bai Song would come.
When Bai Song saw the county lord of Mingzhu, he beckoned him to his side: "Have you received any news about the Tubo Kingdom?" ”
"Roger."
"When did the Shenwu cannon drawings reach the Tubo Kingdom?"
"According to the news, it flowed into the Tubo country half a year ago, and the Tubo country spent half a year researching and manufacturing, and now it has mastered the technology of the Shenwu cannon."
"I had it half a year ago, and there was no rumor at all. Also, why do we get the same news as the news from the imperial court? Shouldn't any news be received at least two days earlier than the imperial court? ”
Hearing this question, the face of the county lord of Mingzhu suddenly became bad, and his words became slurred: "This ...... This ......"
Bai Song accentuated his tone: "What the hell is going on?" ”
The county lord of Mingzhu suddenly knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and said in a trembling voice: "The husband is angry, in fact...... In fact, two days ago, the concubine had already received the news. ”
"What?" Bai Song was shocked, "Why can't you report it?" ”
"Because...... Because it's about motherhood...... Concubinage...... The concubine didn't dare to tell her, so please punish her husband, woo woo ......"
As he spoke, the county lord of Mingzhu burst into tears and didn't dare to get up again.
"It's about Princess Danyang?" Bai Song's face sank, "That's all so, Princess Danyang leaked it out?" This madman! It's just lawless, how can you let her do this? ”
How important is the Shenwu Cannon?
It's not just Bai Song, but anyone with a little brain knows it.
With the deterrence of Shenwu cannons, at least the world of Datang can be guaranteed not to be invaded, and at least the steady development of Datang can be guaranteed for a hundred years.
But the Shenwu cannon is no longer a secret, the enemy country will naturally be eyeing the Tang Dynasty, as long as a war breaks out, no matter what the result is, only the people will suffer.
No matter what the reason is, Princess Danyang gave away the roots of Datang to others, which is tantamount to betraying the country.
Bai Song really couldn't bear it.
I believe that the emperor knows it, and he can't bear it either.
Bai Song turned around and wanted to leave, but was hugged by the county lord of Mingzhu.
The lord of Mingzhu County burst into tears: "Husband, you will spare your mother this time, please." Even if you look at the face of the concubine, spare your mother this time! ”
"County Lord, I heard that your mother has repeatedly asked for your life, why do you still speak for her."
"The parents who suffer from the body, the mother can be unkind to me, and the concubine cannot be unjust to the mother. Husband, please, will you let your mother go? Just be a concubine for the past two years and run the palace wholeheartedly, and let the husband give the concubine a little reward. ”
Seeing that the county lord of Mingzhu was crying and his eyes were red and his clothes were wet, Bai Song felt a little more unbearable.
Bai Song could understand why the county lord of Mingzhu knew and didn't report it, it was because he was afraid of angering her mother, so he deliberately concealed it.
Pardonable.
It's just that this matter is very important, and if Princess Danyang is so cheap, Bai Song is very unconvinced.
Seeing Bai Song's hesitation, the county lord of Mingzhu knew that there was still a chance for the better, and immediately said: "As long as the husband does not inform the court of this matter, the concubine will definitely monitor her mother, and she will definitely not be allowed to have another chance to collaborate with the enemy." The husband can rest assured to lead the troops to Liangzhou to support, and there are concubines in Chang'an City to watch, and there will definitely be no problems. ”
Bai Song looked at the county lord of Mingzhu swearing, and his brows gradually wrinkled: "County lord, can I really trust you?" ”
"Husband, the concubine will never do anything to disappoint the husband, if the husband doesn't believe in the concubine, who else can he trust?"
"It's not the first time!" Bai Song said in a deep voice, "Although I don't care about things and I don't bother to take care of things, it doesn't mean that I really don't know anything." County Lord, I know that everything you do is for the good of the palace, but you must learn to do everything in moderation! This trip to Liangzhou, the road is far away, I don't know the return date, I just want you to stay in the palace honestly, don't make trouble, don't be afraid of things, that's all, can you do it? ”
"Yes!" The county lord of Mingzhu nodded seriously.
Bai Song was a little skeptical, but still nodded.
Bai Song can feel that this trip to Liangzhou is like walking into someone else's trap, but Chang'an has been stable for too long, and some problems will be exposed sooner or later.
If someone really wants to leave Chang'an, then it's okay to leave Chang'an.
As soon as he left, Chang'an could expose his own problems, and it was easier to see the changes in the circle by standing outside the circle.
Bai Song thought about it, so he simply left by himself, and for the last time, he cured all the problems, and it was not bad to do it once and for all.
Although this move can be dangerous, there is something to be gained.
And after Bai Song left Chang'an, the Beiding Royal Mansion was only handed over to the Mingzhu County Lord, although she might cause trouble, she could also ensure that the palace would not be threatened by others.
As long as it doesn't cause trouble to his family, it's not a matter for the lord of Mingzhu to go outside to make trouble.
Thinking of this, Bai Song had already made a decision.
He returned to the living room and found that Hou Junji looked a little nervous, and his forehead was covered with fine sweat.
"General Hou, it's not hot this day, why are you sweating all over your body?"
"Uh...... Have it? That Lord Bai, you said to investigate, but did you get any results? ”
Bai Song smiled: "How can it be so fast?" But I have already thought about it, and I think that General Hou's proposal is good, rather than staying here and waiting for the result, it is better to go and fight the Tubo army back first, and appease the people first. ”
