Chapter 921 67 The Eldest Son
In the days that followed, the prince gradually intervened in the military affairs of the border town, attempting to establish his absolute authority in military resources and combat coordination. But he had no military experience and knowledge at all, and only had theoretical knowledge. This was a war, not a sandbox game. But who could keep refuting the prince? Seeing that the prince looked ugly because his proposal was constantly persuaded back, Ruihe was unwilling to sit and wait for death. If the prince's emotions exploded and he insisted on his own opinion at a certain moment, it would definitely destroy all war deployments.
So the prince slowly fell ill, perhaps because of the climate, perhaps because the summer in the border town was too hot, or perhaps because of overwork. The prince first sneezed seven or eight times, then had a stuffy nose, followed by dizziness and dry eyes, and two days later he had a low fever. The accompanying doctor said that the prince had caught a cold, and after prescribing medicine, he asked the prince to rest more.
The ambitious prince disagreed. He decided to lead the troops to the battle himself. Even if he didn't need to fight the enemy, he hoped to raise his sword and issue an attack order. This was an action he had been planning since he came here, and he was reluctant to give it up.
"This opportunity is rare. How fierce and difficult is it to conquer the Western Jue? I have never heard that Dayan can always win against the Western Jue, but the fact is that from the start of the war last winter to now, Dayan has never lost more than once! Ahem, this opportunity is too rare, I must have a real achievement." Lead Dayan soldiers to win a battle once. As long as he appears on the front line and as long as this battle is still victorious, it is his credit.
I believe Wei Zhenshan and others will be happy to give him face as the crown prince.
The trusted eunuch was very worried about his body: "But you are still feverish."
"It's okay for me, boil another bowl of strong medicine."
But his will was ultimately no match for his weak body, and the prince couldn't get up the next day. The accompanying doctors were extremely anxious and tried their best to treat the disease. By the time the prince recovered, the army had been marching for a day and a night. He angrily hammered the bed board, his face pale with anger.
The tenacious prince was unwilling to succumb to his illness. He tried his best to take care of his body, but just after recovering from his illness, he fell ill again. This time it was a very common allergy in the border town, which was said to be caused by wind and sand. The only way to prevent and treat it was to stay indoors. How many conditions can there be for recuperation on the front line? The prince's allergy had not yet healed, and he contracted a water allergy. His throat was so swollen that he couldn't speak, and in severe cases he couldn't even drink water.
In desperation, the prince had to return to Qingyue City and concentrate on recuperating.
"Your Highness is a precious person, it is better to go back to Qingyue City and take good care of yourself." Ruihe said to the messenger, "I can't spare the time to send Your Highness back to the city. How about this, you help me go back to Qingyue City, pack some medicinal materials and send them to Your Highness, and express my sincere apologies to Your Highness."
The confidant clasped his fists and took the order and left.
In June, Zhuang Cheng found the Eighth Prince with evidence, and reported several middle and low-level officials and many merchants and civilians to the emperor through the Eighth Prince. A storm of catching spies was set off in Yanjing City, and many people were thrown into the prisons of Jingzhao Prefecture and Dali Temple. The Xijue spies were very bold. They bribed several low-level officials with money and helped them get promoted with money. When there was a war on the border, the Xijue spies were making trouble in Yanjing City. The Second Prince's side was a masterpiece of witches, and their success relied on the foundation left by the previous witch several years ago. Other spies could not accomplish such a difficult task, and could only make small troubles to cause trouble in Yanjing City.
Originally, Zhuang Cheng wanted to continue monitoring and find more evidence, but he saw those officials scheming and stealing intelligence everywhere. Although it seemed that those people were too low-ranking to steal anything, he did not dare to underestimate them. It is said that a thousand-mile dike is destroyed by an ant hole. Now these small officials seem to be unable to do anything big, but who knows how much damage will be caused to Dayan one day when a group of ants devour an elephant? In addition, the bribed merchants and civilians have done a lot of things these days, including arson, theft, and poisoning. Jingzhao Prefecture is busy as hell. When he knew that those people were crazy and wanted to poison, Zhuang Cheng knew that he could not wait any longer.
Takuma was also caught. He had planned to poison the water wells in nine directions of Yanjing City on the same day. These nine directions were the wells with the largest water intake that he had people calculate. These wells are also connected to the surrounding small wells. It can be said that as long as the poisoning is successful, the only remaining top-secret poison inherited from his master can spread to two-fifths of the area of Yanjing City in just one day!
In just seven days, everyone who drinks the well water will get sick, and the disease will be contagious. By then, the imperial city will become an isolated island. Even if the emperor is fine, all his subordinates and ministers will fall ill, and most of the people in Yanjing City will have infectious diseases. Who knows if the emperor will die of suffocation?
This poison should have been thrown more than 20 years ago. But for some reason, his master suddenly regretted after the exile of the deposed prince, withdrew from Yanjing City and Dayan and returned to Xijue. Tuoma was also found out from the relics in his master's former residence by the Emperor of Yaoguo when he was in danger.
He was holding the poison and hesitated in his heart. But thinking of the secret report he received, he knew that the border army had captured tens of thousands of Xijue people, and those people might have been killed - the cunning Dayan people said that they would use weapons and horses to exchange for prisoners, but this was obviously to remove the power of Xijue. Without weapons and horses, Xijue would be slaughtered by Dayan, right?
So for the sake of his country, it is not too much for him to make this decision now?
Takuma made a choice, but was caught before he could make it.
The emperor asked the most powerful eunuch to interrogate him, and Takuma used all his tricks, including his ultimate move.
It took nearly two years for the last witch to hypnotize the deposed prince. The deposed prince's psychological pressure increased because he was guarded by the emperor and forced by his grown-up brother. Only then did the witch find a flaw and invade the deposed prince's emotions, and then He used "witchcraft" to slowly cultivate the deposed prince's negative emotions, raising them like mushrooms until he finally couldn't bear it any longer, resulting in an incomprehensible forced uterus and ruining his life.
Having said that, Takuma's ability is not even one-tenth of his master's, and confusing the interrogating eunuch for a few seconds is his limit.
The interrogating eunuch's mind was confused for a moment, but he regained consciousness after a few breaths. He reported this truthfully to the emperor. The emperor's eyes were gloomy: "Continue the trial! I want to know all the secrets!"
Tuoma is loyal to Xijue. He is actually a hybrid of Xijue and Dayan. His biological mother is the concubine of a wealthy businessman in a border town. She died in childbirth when she gave birth to him. He lived like a cat and dog until he was six years old. During the year when he could not survive, he ran away from home and fled to the grassland. Fortunately, his master picked him up and took him back to raise him. All his hatred lies with Dayan, while all his love and loyalty are given to Xi Jue. If the matter failed, he was unwilling to betray Xi Jue, but he was willing to let Emperor Dayan hear some "interesting" information.
So he asked to tell the emperor personally. The emperor agreed and listened to Takuma tell the truth about the deposed prince and the second prince.
"My master said that the reason why he was able to succeed is all because of you, Emperor Dayan." Takuma seemed to be brave and unafraid of death, with a sarcastic smile still on his lips, "My master said that King Xi Jue hates you more." Give birth to several sons. It is best if each one has the blessing of the wolf god and looks brave and powerful. When they grow up, they can be released to conquer more territories. Even if they are killed by their adult sons, it does not matter, as long as the group can be killed by a powerful leader. If you lead, the glory of Dayao Kingdom will never end, but you are the complete opposite. You raised your sons like chickens in the fence. You made them self-righteous, stupid and arrogant, so you lost many sons, even with you. When we fight in the West, our troops are led by outsiders, and you don’t have a son you can trust! How pitiful and pitiful this is!”
The emperor's blood surged.
Takuma didn't let go: "The governor you appointed has hundreds of thousands of troops in the border towns. Do you think he will listen to you? Do you think he will point his sword at you after he wins? Oh stupid emperor!"
The emperor's pupils shrank, and something solid in the back of his mind seemed to be slightly loose.
Takuma's pupils shrank into needles, and then they expanded. He spat out a mouthful of blood, gasped heavily and closed his eyes.
"..." The emperor finally came back to his senses. He was horrified when he remembered the moment when he had been absentminded just now! He took two steps back and called someone, and a group of people rushed in: "Your Majesty!"
After examination by the imperial doctor, the emperor's health was fine, but he still felt lingering fears.
"What about him?"
"Reporting to your majesty, this person has expired."
"How could you die?" He was still alive just now! The emperor was furious and asked the widow to conduct an autopsy to find out the cause of death.
But even the most brilliant author could only see that Takuma died of heart failure. How can a perfectly good person have heart failure while talking? No one can tell.
If Ruihe had been present, he might have been able to tell that Takuma was desperately trying to push his hypnosis skills to the extreme with some secret technique, just to plant seeds in the emperor's mind and try to sow discord between the emperor and General Zhengbei. It caused civil strife in Yan. However, the emperor had already been given the most hidden and solid hint by Ruihe. Takuma's desperate attack only left a faint shadow in the emperor's heart, and then disappeared without a trace at the bottom of the sea.
Two months later, with the help of gunpowder, the war process was accelerated. The Dayan army defeated the King of Xijue, finally ending the war that lasted for more than half a year. King Dayasi of Xijue was assassinated and killed by his third son. The second prince resisted and died in the royal court, and the remaining royal family were all captured. The third prince claimed to be the new Dayasi, was willing to surrender, and made many sincere surrender treaties.
The letter of surrender was sent to Yanjing City, and the emperor agreed. He ordered Ruihe to send the new king of Xijue to Beijing for the surrender ceremony.
News of the victory spread throughout the city of Yanjing, and while celebrating, many people were thinking that if Wei Zhenshan returned to the capital this time, he would probably lose all his military power and stay in the capital to "recuperate".
But after the prisoner presentation ceremony, the surrender ceremony, the awards for meritorious officials, the banquet, and the celebration of the emperor's fifty years in power, Ruihe took the new rewards and military resources and led the Wei army to "escort" the new king of Xijue back. border town.
This is really jaw-dropping. Wei Zhenshan, is this a sign of great luck or is it just confusing the emperor? m.,Please remember:,.
