Chapter 716
When Sibonian went to Gaofu, he failed to catch the woman named Yujiao. After interrogating the servants, they found out that the woman had gone out half an hour ago. As for where she went, the servants did not know.
Now there is no need to doubt, this Yujiao must have worked meticulously. Si Bonian not only captured Gao Song's other two concubines, but also searched Gao's mansion. Originally, Sibenian hoped to find useful clues, but he didn't find any clues, but instead found eight boxes of gold and silver treasures.
Seeing the eight boxes full of gold and silver brought in by the guards, Yun Qing sneered and said, "It's only been more than three months since he captured Jiangnan, but he managed to get six boxes of gold and silver. I really underestimated him before." The spoils are all It was given after the end of the war, so these eight boxes of gold, silver and jewelry were all collected by Gao Song or accumulated by the benefits of income.
Si Bonian said: "My lord, General Yu's two concubines were also sent by Gao Song. I wonder if there will be problems?" Si Bonian felt that this matter should be taken seriously.
Yun Qing said: "Send someone to investigate." Before Yuxi told him about this, he didn't pay much attention to it. Only now do I know that he took it for granted. These people are really pervasive.
In the end, Si Bonian didn't arrest Yu Cong's two concubines for interrogation. The reason was very simple, both women were pregnant. Si Bonian said: "My lord, I have sent people to put the two of them under house arrest." Yu Cong wanted a son, and everyone around Yunqing knew about it. Sibonian was worried that there would be problems if he was arrested, so he went for a compromise.
Yun Qing hummed and said: "The two women who were caught were not inappropriate." The only one who was inappropriate was Yujiao who escaped.
Si Bonian said: "My lord, we must find another explanation for this matter." The matter of the folding fan must not be revealed. Once it is leaked out, the white will become black, and the princess will definitely be splashed with dirty water by then. In order to save the princess from being criticized, she can only use other excuses to deal with Gao Song.
Yun Qing thought for a while and said: "To the outside world, it is said that Gao Song was bought by the people of the court, and they wanted to harm me. In addition, the beauties around Gao Song are meticulous, and his corruption and bribery are also announced." Yun Qing has always been to his subordinates. Generous, but Gao Song violated Yun Qing's taboo, so he is not going to keep this person anymore.
The house was besieged, Yu Cong's two aunts were watched by soldiers, the housekeeper of Yu's house immediately went to the army to find Yu Cong.
Hearing that it was Si Bonian who led troops to arrest his two concubines, Yu Cong knew something was wrong. There is only one person who can command Sibenian, and that is Yunqing.
Yu Cong asked the housekeeper to return home first, while he hurriedly went to see Yunqing. As soon as he saw Yunqing, Yu Cong knelt on the ground and apologized. In fact, he doesn't know what happened until now, but it must be a big deal for Yun Qing to order troops to arrest people.
Of the more than twenty orphans Huo Changqing adopted back then, Yu Congfeng's army Xu Wu and a few others survived. These few people are in Yunqing's heart, so the affection is naturally not comparable to other people.
Yun Qing asked: "How much do you know about Gao Song?" He only hoped that Yu Cong didn't get too deep.
Yu Cong's face changed when he heard this: "My lord, what's wrong with Gao Song?" Seeing that Yunqing looked at him coldly and didn't speak again, Yu Cong hurriedly said: "My lord, I don't know about Gao Song. That day he gave me two concubines and helped me find a house, I accepted his favor, but I paid him the market price." Gao Song wanted to give it to him, but Yu Cong refused. It's one thing for brothers to settle accounts clearly, and it's one thing to help, but it's another thing when money is involved. Gao Song couldn't shirk it, but he was afraid that Yu Cong would become suspicious, so he finally took the money.
Yun Qing said: "Gao Song has already taken refuge in the court, and the Yujiao next to him is the court's secret agent. The two women he gave you are probably not clean."
Yu Cong was very shocked and said: "This is impossible. How could Gao Song be bought by the court?" Gao Song did not doubt Yun Qing's words,
He suspected that no one could doubt Yunqing, he was just too shocked. Gao Song was bought by the court, which was tantamount to a rebellion. Now that the situation is very good, he doesn't understand why Gao Song wants to rebel.
Yun Qing glanced at the six boxes on the right corner, and said: "This is from the Gaosong house, six boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, not including the valuable antiques and the house."
Yu Cong understood now that Gao Song was bought by money. Gritting his teeth, Yu Cong said: "My lord, I'll go back and finish those two women right away." When he said this, Yu Cong's heart was bleeding. A few days ago, two concubines were diagnosed to be pregnant one after another. He didn't know how happy he was at the time, but he didn't expect that they turned out to be secret workers.
Yun Qing said: "I've already sent someone to investigate, and it won't be too late to deal with them after the identities of the two are found out." If it is done carefully, even if she is pregnant with Yu Cong's child, she can't stay. If not, there is no need to deal with it.
Yu Cong breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Lord, for your kindness." I only hope that the two concubines are not secretive, so that the child can be saved. Looking forward to day and night, he doesn't want it to be empty in the end.
Yun Qing said: "It's too early to say that." If the result is not good, he will not show mercy. To be kind to the enemy is to inflict disaster upon oneself.
The crime of treason against the lord was decided by Yun Qing himself, and no one dared to object, let alone intercede with Gao Song. On the second day after the incident, Gao Song was executed. A whole body was left for him for the sake of past love.
After Gao Song's incident came out, Yunqing said that if he is willing to hand over the ill-gotten gains he received, he can be dealt with lightly, and if he doesn't, he will be dealt with severely. As a result, the following generals handed over millions of gold and silver.
Seeing this shocking number, Yun Qing said to Fang Xing: "The princess reminded me before that I should beware of soldiers being corrupted by the beauty of gold and silver. I thought she was exaggerating. Now it seems that the princess' worry is not groundless."
Fang Xing looked a little heavy, and said: "Speaking of which, in order to seek asylum, those officials, gentry, and merchants in the south of the Yangtze River tried their best to give us money. If you don't control it, you will be entangled by them." Fang Xing was also caught The men watched, but he steadied himself.
Yun Qing said: "It seems that I have been too lenient to them." Without heavy punishment, these people don't know how to be afraid.
Yunqing ordered that all those who dared to bribe the generals be arrested. If the circumstances were serious, they would be executed directly. If the circumstances were less serious, they would be given a heavy sentence. Under this kind of high-pressure policy, no one dared to give money to others, and the generals in the army dared not accept the filial piety of others. The atmosphere in the south of the Yangtze River has taken on a new look.
Gao Song's death soon spread to the capital. Yan Wushuang said to Yu Chunhao who had already arrived in the capital, "I said long ago that your plan will not work." The folding fan was made by Chunhao.
Yu Chunhao put the ivory folding fan in his hand, and said: "I can only say that Yunqing is very human, this is my mistake." A normal man will not be angry when he sees the love poems written by his wife to others There will be estrangement in the heart if you have a high fever and jump like thunder. As a result, instead of getting angry, Yunqing killed the Gaomi people.
Yan Wushuang glanced at Yu Chunhao and said: "If Han Yuxi and Yunqing have a bad relationship, your move may be useful. But they have been in love for more than ten years, and they have given birth to six children together. You can do it with a broken fan. If you want to separate their husband and wife, you underestimate Yunqing too much." It's not that Yunqing is abnormal, it's that Yu Chunhao's methods are too shoddy.
Yu Chunhao smiled and said: "Once may not be useful, but what about two or three times?" No matter how deep the relationship is, it cannot withstand repeated provocations and separations, unless their husband and wife are really stronger than gold. However, Yu Chunhao had never seen such a situation.
Yan Wushuang said: "The situation between Yunqing and Han Yuxi is different from ordinary couples. To Yunqing, Han Yuxi is not only the mother of his wife and children, but also his most loyal and reliable comrade-in-arms. In this case, Do you think it is useful to sow dissension?" Although Yun Qing is not good at planning, he is not stupid. He and Han Yuxi are one, and it is the enemy who benefits from the suspicion.
Yu Chunhao said with a half-smile, "I didn't expect you to know Yunqing so well. Those who didn't know thought you were his friend!"
Yan Wushuang said lightly: "I not only know Yunqing very well, but I also know Han Yuxi very well."
Yu Chunhao said with a smile: "The person who knows you best is not your friend, but your enemy. The prince explained this very well. Since the prince knows their husband and wife so well, where does the prince think we should start? Only then can they create a rift between their husband and wife."
Yan Wushuang said: "If you can get Yunqing to take a concubine, it will be more effective than slandering Han Yuxi."
Yu Chunhao opened the folding fan, slapped himself lightly twice, and then said with a smile: "Didn't you just say that Yunqing knew the importance of Han Yuxi to him. Now that he knew, how could he take a concubine."
Yan Wushuang said: "You are also a man, it is one thing to be rational, and another thing to desire. But it is very difficult to find a woman who can defeat Yunqing." He has been looking for so many years, but there is no I found it!
Yu Chunhao thought for a while and asked: "Since you know Yunqing so well, what kind of woman do you think he would like?" There is a direction, and it is easy to find.
Yan Wushuang shook his head and said, "I can't say that well. But the only thing that is certain is that he likes women who are connotative and intelligent." Although Han Yuxi is not a beautiful girl, it is because of her that Yunqing likes her for so many years clever.
Yu Chunhao pondered for a while and said: "It's really hard to find a woman who is younger and more beautiful than Han Yuxi, but also has connotations, and is smart and gentle." With such a woman, he wants to stay by his side. I am willing to give it to Yunqing.
Yan Wushuang said: "This is the only way to create a rift between the husband and wife, other ways are useless."
Yu Chunhao thought for a while and said, "Then look slowly, and you will always find it." Such a person is hard to come by.
Yan Wushuang asked Yu Baojia: "How is Master Yu? Is it okay?" Yu Baojia fell ill as soon as he arrived in the capital due to the long-distance travel and acclimatization. I saw it once. However, Yu Baojia played a good foundation, and now his body has improved.
Yu Chunhao said: "It's much better, I can get out of bed now. This is also thanks to the ginseng of the prince." If they were in the south of the Yangtze River, what kind of ginseng would they want? But when we arrived in the capital, we had to start from scratch. He still has a chance, but Yu Chunhao, who is almost sixty years old, has no ambitions, and just wants to spend his old age in peace and stability.
Thinking of this, Yu Chunhao said: "Uncle Jia asked me to tell the lord that I don't want the three million silver originally given to him. The national treasury is empty, and it can be regarded as the last meager effort he has made." Silly, the money has already entered Yan Wushuang's pocket, it is impossible for him to take it out again. Rather than that, it would be better to say no, and it would save the faces of both parties.
Yan Wushuang said with a smile: "Master Yu is not in good health but still cares about the court. He is really a role model for officials in the world."
Yu Chunhao also politely said a few words, and then asked: "I heard that you plan to transfer Lin Fengyuan back?"
Yan Wushuang nodded and said, "Yes, the transfer order has been issued, is there any problem?"
Yu Chunhao shook his head and said: "No question, just ask casually." As Yu Chunhao, how could he ask some irrelevant things. But he didn't say anything, and Yan Wushuang didn't ask.
Yan Wushuang said: "The emperor will be fifteen after the Chinese New Year. It's time to start his marriage. I'll leave this to you." From selection to decision and then to marriage, it will take two years anyway, so It's not too early to start now.
Yu Chunhao didn't take Zhou Yan to heart, and said, "Why does the lord still support him?" Yan Wushuang monopolized the power, and if he wanted to, he could pull Zhou Yan down and proclaim himself emperor. But the problem is that for so many years, Yan Wushuang has no such intention.
Yan Wushuang said: "It's just a title." Being an emperor is not as comfortable as being a regent.
Yu Chunhao also couldn't figure out what Yan Wushuang meant, so he thought for a while and said: "My lord, after Yunqing pacifies Yungui and Guangxi, he should be called emperor. At that time, my lord can't let him be more beautiful than before."
Yan Wushuang laughed when he heard this and said: "Even if Yunqing pacifies the south, he will not be called emperor."
Yu Chunhao showed doubts: "Yunqing has occupied half of the country, and has enough capital to become emperor. Why is the prince so sure that he will not become emperor?"
Yan Wushuang said: "When the capital is captured, he will be called emperor." Before the capital is captured, Yun Qing will definitely not be called emperor.
Yu Chunhao's heart jumped when he heard this, but he quickly said calmly: "If he can't conquer the capital all his life, then he won't be called emperor in his whole life?" After a pause, Yu Chunhao said again: "Or Said, when Yunqing leads troops to attack, the prince will not be sure to defend the capital?" Otherwise, Yan Wushuang would not have said this.
Yu Chunhao also had a general understanding of the situation in the capital. With their current strength, Yu Chunhao also knows whether Yunqing can defend them if he leads troops in. So Yan Wushuang didn't answer this question, but said: "No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, we just need to do what we need to do right now."
Yu Chunhao smiled and said: "My lord is right, who knows what will happen in the future! (To be continued)
