Chapter 1245 Disbandment
Chu Yuexi said, "Go back as soon as you go. Just in time, the Zhao family has been driven away, so I can check if the woman is still in Shengjincheng."
The person he is talking about is Le Ying.
In the past few days, he had been lurking in Shengjin City, conducting overt and covert inspections, but he could not find any trace of Le Ying, but he helped Chu Jingqi Ao Tianchen a lot.
In Shengjin City, after the Zhao family left, the city became a mess. The 80,000 soldiers and horses were forcibly recruited by the Zhao family, and many people died during this period. After Chu Jingqi took over, he did not embarrass them, and all Disbanded.
In order to appease the hearts of the people in Shengjin City, one person was given a severance pay of five taels of silver when the disbandment was completed. As for those who had been killed by the Zhao family before and who died in this battle, each person was given fifty taels of silver as compensation. Two silver coins.
Of course, the money was provided by the emperor.
Last year, the emperor ransacked the Xiao family, then the Zhao family, and more than a dozen ministers, big and small, were implicated in ransacking their homes, and a lot of money was confiscated. This money was only a drop in the bucket of the property.
General Qian was left to appease the people in Shengjincheng. Chu Jingqi, Aotianchen, Chu Yuexi and several other young generals, under the enthusiastic leadership of the people, rented a large house with five rooms. In the lobby of the house, Chu Jingqi and the others were in full swing. We are discussing how to cross Wutong Mountain.
Chu Yuexi said, "As long as you have good Qinggong skills, you can't be blocked by a small cliff and just fly over there."
General Lin curled his lips and said, "Yes, Lord Commander, you are good at Qinggong, and so are the Crown Prince and the Young Prince, but you are the only ones who can fly over and take risks, and you are not going to worry the Emperor to death?"
< br>
Besides, the cliff is one or two hundred meters away, and there is no stepping stone below. What if I accidentally fall down while flying halfway?
What if?
Of these three people, one is the emperor's favorite minister, one is the emperor's favorite cousin, and the other is the emperor's favorite cousin's husband. No one can make any mistakes, otherwise, the emperor will have to kill them. The heads of these little generals cannot be torn off.
Several other young generals were also afraid that the bosses would leave them when they got angry and fly over to fight with the Zhao family, so they hurriedly said, "There is still a way, but I can't think of it at the moment, but the ways are all thought up by people. We think about it day and night, and we can always figure out a way.”
"How about we go directly under Wangtian Cliff?" General Qin pursed his lips and suggested.
Wangtian Cliff is the cliff where the Zhao family destroyed the road.
Ao Tianchen said, "Wangtian Cliff is bottomless. I don't even know what's underneath. I don't know if we can get to Poyang City from there. What if we can't get to Poyang City from there?" Isn’t it a waste of time?”
"Then let's send a few people to explore the road first." Chu Yuexi said. He wanted to raise his hand and say that he was one of them, but thinking that his task seemed not to be completed yet, he stretched his neck lazily. Shrank back.
Chu Jingqi also agreed, "We will take two steps. One step is to send people to explore the path at the bottom of the cliff. The other step is to send people to repair the wooden bridge."
Since the Zhao family can cut it off, they can definitely repair it. As long as the wooden bridge is repaired, traveling to and from Poyang City will be simple.
"Okay, let's do it like this." Ao Tianchen made the final decision.
Ao Tianchen took people to explore the bottom of the cliff, Chu Jingqi took people to build the wooden bridge, and Chu Yuexi took her people around Shengjin City, looking for people everywhere with Le Ying's portrait.
Of course, when they recaptured Shengjin City, both Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen immediately sent a message to the emperor. Although the letter asked the emperor for 600,000 taels of silver to appease the people of Shengjincheng and the 80,000 disbanded recruits, the emperor was still very excited after reading it.
He took the letter and handed it to the Second Prince to read, "Tianchen and Aqi are lucky this time. When they come back, I will reward them well."
Especially Aqi. Originally, he didn't have to go to the Northwest when he was still in Dingyou, but for his sake, Aqi still went without saying a word.
"And Yue Xi, Yue Xi also put in a lot of effort to recapture Shengjincheng this time." The emperor said with a smile in his eyes.
Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen and Chu Yuexi have a friendly relationship and are relatives. There is no such thing as grabbing credit and deceiving the superiors and the inferiors. Therefore, Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen’s letters to the emperor included Chu Yuexi’s credit. .
The second prince was also very happy to know that his son-in-law also had a share of the credit, "That girl Qinghui came to the house yesterday to make noises with me, asking when Chu Yuexi would come back. Now it's better. I'll chase you." After leaving the Northwest, I’m afraid I won’t be able to come back for a while.”
The emperor thought of the person who lowered his head, and the smile on his face faded, "Even if that person goes to heaven or earth, I will find him."
There is a person who can torture him to a point where life is worse than death, and can also use his horoscope to change the fate of his emperor. Moreover, this person has malicious intentions towards him. Just thinking about it makes him so disgusted that he can't eat or sleep.
"Don't worry, although Yue Xi's temperament is a bit playful, he is still quite calm in his work. He will catch people." The second prince advised.
It seems that when he returns home later, he will have to write a letter to Tianchen and ask him to help Yue Xi catch the person. Otherwise, if Yue Xi can't catch the person and comes back empty-handed, I'm afraid that the fate he has set this time will be Even the merits are not enough to offset the anger in the emperor's heart.
Xia Zihan also received a letter from Chu Jingqi. After reading the letter, Xia Zihan smiled and told Chu Qing, "Notify the kitchen to add extra dishes tonight... Forget it, you should go to Juxiang Building to order some dishes and let them Deliver it in the evening.”
Seeing his master beaming, Chu Qing chuckled, "Master, did the prince win the war again?"
"Well, we also recaptured Shengjin City." Xia Zihan folded the letter and walked out, "Hurry up to Juxiang Tower, I'm going to tell the princess the good news."
"Master, gauze hat, I forgot to wear gauze hat."
Chu Qing quickly took down a white gauze hat hanging on the shelf and chased out.
At noon, as soon as Xia Zihan went out, she was stung by the scorching sun and squinted her eyes. She stamped her feet, waited for Chu Qing to come up, took the gauze hat from her hand, and put it on her head. The white transparent gauze The curtain instantly covered her entire face.
Chu Qing helped her organize it and said, "Master, what do you want to eat? You have to give me a menu. Otherwise, if I go to Juxiang Tower and see that every dish is delicious, I will not know what to order." .”
"I heard that Juxianglou has another crispy duck dish. I haven't taken the two young masters to eat it yet. You can order one today, and then order the eight-treasure cake that the princess likes to eat, and the prince. My favorite braised beef, and the old man’s favorite jade meatballs, and you can order a few more.”
Chu Qing said yes.
