Chapter 1161 Perhaps It Is Retribution

"I heard you had a problem with the amount of gold you got?"

Yun Chu closed the "Book of Mountains and Seas" that he often read and looked at Li Yuance in front of him.

Li Yuance's face turned pale, his lips kept trembling, and he said after a long time: "Too little."

Yun Chu nodded and said to Army Sima Jiang Xie: "Give his share and my share to the soldiers below, and tell them that this is an extra gift from me and King Zhao to show compassion for the soldiers." reward."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xie turned around and went out to do errands.

Li Yuance closed his eyes and said, "Is it appropriate for the General to humiliate my Prince Zhaojun in this way?"

Yunchu said again: "I will report to Your Majesty that you, Li Yuance, are timid in front of the two armies and are not useful. I will also tell Your Majesty that as the commander of the march, you are suspected of embezzling military funds and drinking the blood of soldiers."

Li Yuance blushed and said angrily: "Your Majesty won't believe it."

Yunchu sighed and said: "I know you came with very high expectations for this southwest battle, but you didn't say that you were timid and shirk your responsibility. If it weren't for the effective use of Lieutenant Zhechong below, you would have even It would be a loss of strength and humiliation for the country. Also, you brought such a large caravan into the southwest and failed to do business. Do you think it was my fault, which in turn caused you to suffer a lot of losses?

What do you think? "

Li Yuance shouted: "I didn't!"

Yun Chu looked at Li Yuance, who was holding his neck and refused to admit his mistake, and said, "How wise is the former Prince Zhao..."

Before Yun Chu could finish his words, Li Yuance roared angrily: "So what if I'm not as good as my father? Now, I am the King of Zhao County. You humiliate me everywhere and make things difficult for me..."

Yun Chu looked at the furious Li Yuance and remained silent. When he had finished roaring, he put his hands on the desk, his eyes fell on the shelf full of arrows, and fell into deep thought.

Li Yuance finished his roar and calmed down. When his eyes followed Yun Chu's and fell on the arrow stand, his knees softened and he knelt on the ground, begging: "The general made a mistake for a moment..."

Yun Chu's eyes crossed the arrow stand and landed on Li Yuance's face, and he said incomprehensibly: "Why?"

Li Yuance put his head on the ground and trembled: "I want to make contributions..."

Yun Chu said: "I've given you a chance to make a contribution, but in the battle of Weishan, you took the lead and charged into the enemy's formation at the beginning. The question is, after fighting, fighting, what will happen if you escape back?"

If you hadn't sacrificed your life for the captains, you would have been defeated in the battle at Weishan.

As a leading general, there is no need to take the lead. Just charge the captain with your life and attack. Since you have chosen to charge, a certain family will believe that you are eager to perform meritorious deeds. But after killing for a while, it will be difficult for a certain family to run back alone in panic. Got it.

Tell me, why? "

Li Yuance's whole body was shaking like chaff, and after a while he said: "I should have died fighting there, but I was too scared."

Yun Chu sighed and said: "The bravery of blood makes you fight bravely to kill the enemy. After calming down, you are as timid as a mouse. When you don't see the enemy, you feel that you are invincible. After seeing the enemy, you feel that you are nothing." , after the enemy retreats, you will feel that you are unparalleled...

Li Yuance, when you go back, give your title to your brothers. You are a naturally weak person. The glory of Prince Zhao makes you bold. When you return to your true self, your true colors will be revealed. You are really not suitable to be this Prince Zhao. king. "

Li Yuance said dullly: "You won't kill me?"

Yun Chu said: "If you had continued to roar at the military tent just now, of course I would kill you, but then you knelt down and begged for mercy. How do you want me to kill you?"

Li Yuance burst into tears and cried: "You even think it's a shame to kill me, don't you?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "The soldiers who followed me on the expedition, I have the moral obligation to take them out and bring them back as neatly as possible. You are the marching Sima in my army. Killing you will make the barbarians in the southwest worse." If you are proud, historians will also record it in the history books - Yun Shuai conquered the southwest, his momentum was overwhelming, but he only lost his marching history.

Therefore, I will not kill you. Since Your Majesty has handed you over to me intact, I need to return you intact to His Majesty. As for your role in the army, just take care of His Majesty's children. "

Li Yuance covered his face and cried loudly.

The cry was so pitiful that even Yun Chu, who had a heart as hard as stone, couldn't bear to hear it.

At dawn, Army Commander Jiang Xie came to report that Li Yuance committed suicide by drowning.

Yunchu sighed and was about to say a grand burial when Jiang Xie said again: "Fortunately, he followed me and was rescued. He is still alive, but like He Jingxiong, the minister of the Ministry of official affairs, he has gone crazy. At this time, he is constantly Point to the trees and say something - this is what I eat...

When Yun Chu heard this, he buried his face deeply into his hands and rubbed them vigorously. He didn't know how historians would record this battle in the southwest. The small soldiers were not damaged much, but two generals were damaged!

Yun Chu raised his face from his palms and looked at Jiang Xieyang miserably: "Zhang Donghai has been appointed as the marching general of Jiannan Road. He is so happy that he wants to chop off his dick to show his loyalty to His Majesty. He looks like he is going crazy. Before I go crazy, you are here. Never dare anything happen again..."

Chao Yunchu, who was sympathetic to Jiang Xie, cupped his hands and said, "The general will not do it!"

Hearing that Li Yuance, the king of Zhaojun, was also crazy, Li Jingxuan came to visit him at night.

When he saw with his own eyes Li Yuance, Prince of Zhao County, and He Jingxiong, the Minister of Rites, sitting side by side in a carriage, answering questions in harmony, and when he saw Yun Chu again, Li Jingxuan felt that the hairs on his back stood up.

Yun Chu said indifferently: "There is still room on their carriage, do you want to get on?"

Li Jingxuan stood far away and said, "Why?"

Yun Chu spread his hands and said, "I want to know too."

Li Jingxuan said, "What if their madness is cured after returning to Luoyang?"

Yun Chu said, "That would be a good thing. The historian's great pen can finally let Yun off the hook."

Li Jingxuan said, "Okay, I will report the two of them to Your Majesty under the name of false accusation."

Yun Chu frowned and said, "What do you mean by false accusation?"

Li Jingxuan sighed and said, "Maybe it's retribution..."

Yun Chu spread out a special memorial book, looking at the blank book, he really didn't know how to write. He Jingxiong was crazy, he could write thousands of words, now that Li Yuance was crazy, Yun Chu really didn't know where to start.

Perhaps, Li Jingxuan was right - this might be retribution.

Yun Chu felt that he should lead his army to leave the southwest forest as soon as possible, maybe he could avoid bad luck.

Therefore, when the 50,000-strong army evacuated the southwest, they felt a bit panic-stricken, and did not look like a triumphant army at all.

Li Zhi picked a lychee from a lychee tree, peeled it and put it in his mouth in one go.

After a while, he spat out a large lychee pit and said to Wu Mei: "Yun Chu sent all the civilians who entered Shu back this time, just to bring back 600 lychee trees?"

Wu Mei also spat out a lychee pit and said: "Yun Chu lightly entered Cangshan and Erhai, Sheng Luopi surrendered, and all the tribal chiefs who participated in the atrocities of our Tang Dynasty soldiers and civilians surrendered. Naturally, he had the leisure to bring back some food for his wife."

Li Zhi picked another lychee, peeled it and put it in his mouth and said: "I am more relieved than ever when he goes to war. "

Wu Mei said: "Your Majesty, do you think Zhang Donghai can take the seal of the commander-in-chief of Jiannan Road from Yunchu with just an imperial edict?"

Li Zhi said: "The edict is not a forged edict, Zhang Donghai can get it naturally."

Wu Mei frowned and said: "Your Majesty is so confident?"

Li Zhi stretched out a hand and said: "Let's bet, the bet is the 100 lychee trees in your hand."

Wu Mei thought about it and shook her head and said: "No bet."

Li Zhi continued to pick lychees and ate them. After eating another one, he might have been angry because of the lychees. "300 trees in Luoyang and 300 trees in Chang'an. He divided them fairly."

Wu Mei spat out a lychee pit and said, "Maybe this is what he wants to do to defame himself, so that Your Majesty won't think too much."

Li Zhi said, "He has holes all over his body. Is there any need to defame himself? If you really want to deal with him, just based on the fact that he took the opportunity to throw thunder and fire bombs into my palace when he killed Hua Langtu in the East Palace, it would be enough to kill all nine generations of his family."

Wu Mei said, "No evidence."

Li Zhi sneered and said, "Do I need evidence? ? "

Wu Mei said with resentment: "I told your majesty that it was Yunchu who threw the thunder and fire bombs at Ziwei Palace. Your majesty didn't believe it at that time, and even reprimanded me."

Li Zhi said without shame: "Believe or not, it's just a matter of thought."

Wu Mei found a big lychee and picked it, peeling it while saying: "Your majesty believes it now?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "I still don't believe it."

Wu Mei sighed and stuffed the lychee into her mouth and said: "Your military supervisor made Drowning crazy."

Li Zhi said: It must be Drowning crazy."

Wu Mei said: "Does your majesty trust Yunchu so much?"

Li Zhi shook his head and said: "No matter who led the army to pacify the southwest and handed over the seal of power honestly, I will think that what he said makes sense, and the winner himself should not be blamed.

What's more, I have thought that Yunchu has no reason to kill He Jingxiong, and He Jingxiong must not have the courage to make enemies with a powerful general in the southwest border.

So, I can accept the reason that he went crazy after drowning. "

Wu Mei didn't speak for a long time. The emperor and the empress continued to pick lychees and eat them in the hall of Shangyang Palace. The giant bear lay at the door and looked at them stupidly, but didn't dare to come in. He looked extremely pitiful.

"Your Majesty, prepare for a stable marriage as soon as possible."

"Why? Yunchu hasn't submitted a marriage proposal yet."

"Because your majesty has a daughter with no future. She and Yunjin have already..."

Li Zhi, who was about to pick lychees, suddenly said angrily: "How dare you, thief!"

Wu Mei pouted and said: "I'm afraid that the pearl is secretly pregnant. Your Majesty should make a decision early to avoid an embarrassing situation at that time."

Li Zhi calmed down and continued to pick lychees to eat. After eating three in a row, he said to Wu Mei: "The princess is wrong and blames the teacher Yunchu. I want to see how Yunchu explains it. "
