Why did the emperor rebel?

Chapter 971 Yang Jie Shows Up
The winter in the grassland is extremely cold, and the north wind howls, which makes people's faces hurt.

Riding on the horse, Yang Jun looked at the dozens of camps not far away, his eyes flickering.

He had expected for a long time that Wala would guard Yang Jie more closely, but after he actually arrived here, he realized that he still underestimated this younger brother.

As Bodu said, this place is a full twenty miles away from the Old Wara Camp.

However, there is no shortage of precautions.

Along the way, at least five miles away from the camp, there were already sentries coming and going to the camp gate.

Yes, it is in front of the camp gate.

In order to guard Yang Jie, Yexian set up camp here specially, looked at the tents in the distance, and silently counted the Wala soldiers walking all the way, overtly and secretly.

Yang Jun was surprised to find that at least 600 troops were stationed here for Yang Jie.

Bodule pointed the horse's head, pointed at the tent in the middle, and said softly.

"Ahead is where the Fourth Young Master is. Second General Yang will wait a moment!"

While speaking, he took out a command arrow and handed it to the guard in front of the camp gate, said.

"These people are envoys of the Ming Dynasty. I am ordered by the Grand Master to take them to see the Fourth Young Master Yang."

Seeing this situation, Yang Jun couldn't help but become a little weird.

Who is Bodu?

Yexian's younger brother, one of the leaders of the Torghut Tribe, is considered to be a high-ranking and powerful man in Wala. Even if everyone knows him, at least it is impossible for anyone with a little bit of status in the various tribes of Wala not to know him. .

To put it bluntly, his presence in person was more useful than anything else.

But what did Yang Jun see now?
The majestic Bodu King, facing a small soldier guarding the gate, was actually polite.

Moreover, what's even more absurd is that when this little soldier saw Bodu coming in person, he didn't immediately get out of the way, but he actually checked the arrow in a decent manner?
Watching the soldier guarding the camp respectfully return the command arrow to Bodu, and then opened the camp gate, Yang Jun followed Bodu and led the horse forward, while opening his mouth thoughtfully, saying.

"But I never thought that the Grand Master valued my fourth brother so much that even His Excellency Bodu came here in person, so he couldn't pass directly..."

In a sense, Bodu and Yexian actually think that they are both scheming, sweet-talking and sword-bellying people.

Facing Yang Jun's implied mocking tone, he kept smiling, said.

"The grand master has always been a person who loves talents. The fourth son has stirred up the situation in the grassland with his own strength. He is really a hero among men. Since he has arrived in Oala, he should treat him kindly."

"There are [-] guards in this battalion, half of them are dispatched by the grand master from among the personal guards. In addition, there are dozens of slaves and maidservants dedicated to serve the fourth son."

"This kind of treatment, even His Majesty the Supreme Emperor, never had it..."

"Then I would like to thank the Grand Master for taking such pains to arrange it!"

With a soft snort, Yang Jun didn't continue talking.

"Here we are, the fourth son's camp is in front of us."

After walking forward for a cup of tea, Bodu stopped in front of a brightly lit camp.

Looking at the bright lights in the tent, Bodu blinked at Yang Jun and said.

"It seems that I don't need to order someone to report it!"

Sure enough, the next moment, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a man wearing a Confucian scarf and a thick cloak walked out slowly.

"Little Jay!"

Seeing this figure, Yang Jun couldn't hold back immediately, he rushed forward in three steps in two, hugged the future man tightly, and said.

"You're fine, great, great, you're fine..."

"Ahem...Second brother, if you keep hugging like this, something will happen soon."

Compared to Yang Jun's excitement, Yang Jie was also very happy, but calmer.

Being hugged so tightly by Yang Jun, he even thought of making a joke.

However, these two coughs made Yang Jun calm down, and let go of his hands in a hurry. He looked Yang Jie up and down, and seeing that he was just joking, Yang Jun couldn't help but reach out and hammer on his shoulder, smiling. road.

"Bullshit!"

This blow was not light, Yang Jie rubbed his shoulders, but his brows and eyes were full of smiles, he exhaled lightly, and he said.

"Second brother wait a moment."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and looked at Bodu who was standing not far away, and said.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for personally escorting my second brother here."

Contrary to Yang Jun's expectation, at this moment, Bodu didn't mention the imperial decree, and he didn't even intend to stay and watch them.

"The Fourth Young Master and the Second General Yang have a deep brotherhood, which is really enviable."

With a soft admiration, Bodu restrained his smile and said seriously.

"Fourth Young Master, I delivered him safely. The next thing is up to Fourth Young Master. There is not much time left for you."

"The two of you brothers haven't seen each other for many days. You must have a lot to say. I won't bother you. I will visit you again tomorrow afternoon. I hope that the fourth son can give the Grand Master and a certain answer a satisfactory answer."

"General Yang Er, I just ordered people to set up a few new camps around the surrounding area. I don't have time to prepare clothes and bedding today. I can only ask General Yang Er to stay overnight. When I come tomorrow, I will bring these things over. Farewell."

After finishing speaking, Bodu stroked his chest and gave a salute, turned around and left without stopping.

This refreshing look caught Yang Jun by surprise.

However, only for a moment, Yang Jun put all these things behind him, and what he said right now was not as important as his younger brother.

Pulling Yang Jie into the tent, with the help of the light, Yang Juncai was finally able to take a closer look at his younger brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Okay, okay, I'm dark and thin, but my body looks stronger than before. I'm relieved that you're fine."

After looking Yang Jie up and down, Yang Jun heaved a sigh of relief.

Although, from his point of view, Yang Jie's body is still weak as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind.

However, unexpectedly, Yang Jie's spirit was much better than before, even with this complexion, he was much better.

Of course, the more important thing is that after a careful inspection, Yang Jun did not find any scars on Yang Jie's body.

This shows that he was not tortured, so he can finally feel at ease.

During the journey before, what he was most worried about was that Yang Jie would be severely tortured.

After all, with Yang Jie's body and bones, let alone using torture, even if he didn't use torture, it would be enough to survive the bitter cold of the grassland.

Seeing that Yang Jie is all right now, he is finally relieved.

Yang Jie just stood there, letting Yang Jun touch up and down, until the other party stopped moving, he smiled and said.

"Don't worry, brother, I'm fine."

"only……"

At this point, a trace of guilt flashed across Yang Jie's face, and said.

"Because of my affairs, laboring father is so old, wearing armor again, it is really unfilial..."

"What are you talking about? You are the direct son of the Yang family, and our Yang family will rely on you to support us in the future."

Looking at Yang Jie's appearance, Yang Jun frowned and said.

"What's more, you have done such a great thing on the grassland. This achievement can't be compared with your elder brother. Father is proud of you. How can you not come?"

As he was talking, Yang Jun seemed to react suddenly and asked.

"No, Xiaojie, how do you know that father has returned to the border?"

You know, according to the news that Yang Jun learned before, Yang Jie should have infiltrated Oala after provoking the Tatar civil strife, and he has lost the news since then.

Judging from the current situation, if there is no accident, Yang Jie should have been brought here and put under house arrest after that.

So, although Yang Hong's return to the Xuanfu was not covered up secretly, how did Yang Jie get the news?
Faced with Yang Jun's question, Yang Jie smiled, but instead of answering directly, he waved and said.

"I know that the second brother has many questions, but it's okay, there is still a lot of time, the second brother sits first, let's talk slowly."

Yang Jun nodded and was about to sit down, but as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned around and pushed Liu San beside him out, saying.

"Don't worry, Xiaojie, this is the person my elder brother asked me to bring here. He has something for you..."

While speaking, he turned to Liu San and said.

"What about the decree?"

"You don't really hide in the Oirat camp, do you?"

So, Yang Jie's eyes fell on Liu San, but he didn't speak.

At the same time, Liu San knelt down on one knee, made a military salute, and said.

"Humble, under Jin Yiwei's command, Liu Hong, a hundred households in Nanzhen Fusi, see Master Tongzhi!"

On the side, Yang Jieshang didn't respond, but Yang Jun's eyes widened.

Why is this guy so different from the one in front of him?
If we say that in front of Yang Jun, this Liu San, no, he should be called Liu Hong now, acting like an ordinary veteran.

Then Liu Hong in front of him had an inexplicably murderous aura, perhaps due to psychological factors. When he revealed his identity, Yang Jun immediately felt that the aura in him belonged exclusively to Jin Yiwei. A chilly scent.

However, it was only a moment before Yang Jun came back to his senses and explained.

"Xiaojie, I forgot to tell you. His Majesty has issued a decree to promote you to be the Commander of the Jingwei Commander, to be the Commander of the Commander of the Jingwei, to be the Captain of Qingche, to be the third-rank General Zhaoyong, and to be in charge of the vanguard of the government army."

The commander of Jingwei was originally in charge of Shangzhi 26 Guards. From this point of view, it can barely be regarded as the superior department of Shangzhi 26 Guards.

Of course, in the actual implementation, the presence of the Jingwei command and envoy is not strong. After all, the imperial guards must see their will when they are mobilized, and the imperial guards, especially the Jinyiwei, are extremely independent.

The role of the Jingwei Command and Envoy Division is more responsible for coordinating affairs with various ministries.

However, in name, it is not a problem for the hundred households of Jinyiwei to be humbled in front of Yang Jie, the commander of the Jingwei.

"I know, Bo has told me all of this!"

Yang Jie smiled and spoke softly.

However, what he said surprised Yang Jun for a while.

Bodo?

So, what these words mean is that not only the purpose of promotion, but also the matter of his father's arrival in the Xuanfu, was also revealed by Bodu?
This news is not secret, it is not unusual for Bo to know, but why did he tell Xiaojie?
Yang Jun frowned, confused for a while, and was about to ask a question, but saw that Yang Jie had turned his gaze to Liu Hong again, so he could only swallow the words again.

At the same time, Yang Jie looked at Liu Hong who was kneeling on the ground, and asked.

"Second brother said, you have an imperial decree to pass on, but the truth?"

Liu Hong hesitated for a moment, did not speak, but turned his attention to the other servants in Yang Jie's camp.

Seeing this situation, Yang Jie frowned, as if thinking of something, he glanced behind him, and said.

"You all go out!"

Therefore, all the people in the camp did not hesitate and bowed. Except for a strong man standing behind Yang Jie, everyone left the camp.

Afterwards, Yang Jie looked at Yang Jun opposite, thought for a while, and said.

"Second brother, I'm afraid you have to avoid it for a while."

Yang Jun was stunned, as if he didn't expect to avoid even himself, but he only hesitated a little, and he nodded and said.

"Okay, I'm outside the tent. If there is anything, you just need to make a noise and let me hear it, and I will come in immediately."

After finishing speaking, Yang Jun glanced at Liu Hong, then got up and exited the camp.

So, in a short while, only Yang Jie, Liu Hong, and the man behind Yang Jie were left in the tent.

After Yang Jun left, Liu Hong first took out a secret letter from his chest, handed it up, and said.

"My lord, this is His Majesty's will to pardon General Yang Er. We were able to meet your lord smoothly because of this will."

Yang Jie took a look at it, then got up solemnly, bowed in the direction of the capital, and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Afterwards, he put away the secret letter and asked.

"This secret letter, have you shown it to the second brother?"

Liu Hong replied.

"According to Vice President Yang's order, he never showed it to General Yang Er."

While talking, Liu Hong told Yang Jie all the details of himself and others after they came to Wala.

After listening, Yang Jie nodded and smiled.

"Well, I really can't tell my second brother in advance, otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble."

With Yang Jun's temperament, if he knew that he didn't come here privately this time, but was granted an amnesty, and he was restored to his post, he would definitely lose his temper. If this is the case, they might not see him. own up.

Raising his head and looking in the direction of the Xuan Mansion, Yang Jie sighed in his heart...

Big brother, you really deserve to be the person your father likes!
However, it was only for a moment, Yang Jie put this emotion behind him, calmed down, looked at Liu Hong in front of him carefully, and asked.

"There is no one else here, if you have anything to say, you can say it!"

Liu Hong didn't question the other person behind Yang Jie, but really treated that person as if he didn't exist, and gave another military salute, said.

"Your Majesty ordered you to bring a word to Master Tongzhi."

"Your Majesty said that things on the grassland are things on the grassland, things on the Ming Dynasty are things on the Ming Dynasty, and nothing that happens on the grassland can be blamed on the people of the Ming Dynasty."

"Tongzhi lord is a person of great Ming, and when he does things of great Ming, he should naturally be protected by great Ming. Within the great Ming, there is its own law of great Ming. Please understand my lord so that we can do it ourselves."

"Nothing else?"

After hearing these words, Yang Jie asked with a strange expression on his face.

Liu Hong nodded and said.

"Nothing else!"

After thinking about it, Liu Hong seemed to feel that saying this was not clear enough, so he added another sentence, saying.

"Master Tongzhi, the orders I have received from you are only these, and nothing else!"

After listening, Yang Jie pondered for a moment, then he exhaled lightly, with an unexpected smile on his face, and said.

"I understand……"
