No script time travel, the general helped me rise to the top
Chapter 145: Negotiations at the Posthouse
"In this case, if they go to deliver the silver today, Shangshu Gao will be unable to sit still in three days at most! Then we can wait and see the big show! Watch them fight each other," Yangyang felt refreshed in her heart instantly.
"Three days? I don't know if I can survive three days!" Qin Haoran thought of how Lord Guan asked him to take Yangyang back to the mountain stronghold tomorrow. What would he do if he was asked to send Yangyang back to Mobei in less than three days?
"What do you mean?"
"No! It's meaningless?" Qin Haoran shrugged, not wanting Yangyang to see what was on his mind!
After Guan Changfeng confirmed that Yangyang was brought back safely by Qin Haoran, he ordered someone to send a letter to Mobei immediately. Now the people in Jingwei City were in panic and there were spies everywhere, so even he had to act with caution.
On the day Tang Yuwei and his companions arrived in Mobei, they immediately sent people to invite the Rong general Jia Kuizhuo, whom he had deliberately let go before!
Although Naga Kuizhuo is a heroic man, he still has some grudges against the Dapu Kingdom, so the two sides negotiated at the border post, and they have stayed there for almost two days today!
Now it was another carefully arranged dinner party, but Tang Yuwei's face looked very worried!
"Don't be so stern. Look at this." Prince Yuwen Jin nodded in the direction of Jia Kuizhuo while holding the wine glass, and then drank it all. "We are in someone else's territory now, we can't be impatient!"
"The guards of the capital haven't disappeared yet. It seems that the situation is more troublesome than we expected. I'm afraid that the palace has been controlled by the second princess now!"
According to Tang Yuwei's previous judgment, Ji Ming would give him timely news, but now there is no news from Ji Ming, it must be that something bad is happening!
Yuwen Jin was not worried, but he knew that it was useless to worry about Jia Kuizhuo.
"Based on my understanding of the Royal Aunt, even if she controls the palace, she will not easily take the throne before getting the letter. After all, she has always wanted to be legitimate!"
"Gentlemen, are today's dishes not to your liking?" Jia Kuizhuo looked at Tang Yuwei and Yuwen Jin and smiled amusingly.
During these few days of testing, Jia Kuizhuo didn't feel that these two had any other intentions.
But if he were to produce the letter that had induced him to go to Dapu to get the military treasury map, many people in Rong State would inevitably know that he had taken people to Dapu.
But this was an accidental loss of the Rong State military. If it became known to everyone, the Rong State’s interested generals would surely use it to impeach him!
After much thought, Jia Kuizhuo decided not to take the risk.
"You two, I have made it very clear. This matter concerns the stability of our Rong country. Now that we are at peace with your Dapu, I cannot give this thing to you!"
"What's more, the military map I have is fake!"
Tang Yuwei had long understood that the reason why Jia Kuizhuo had been refusing to agree in the past few days and producing the letter that could prove that it was Princess Xuanyi who told him to go to Dapu Kingdom to get the military treasury map, but had been trying to trap them in every possible way, was to get the real military treasury map.
Now that Jia Kuizhuo had made it clear, there was no need for Tang Yuwei to hide anything.
"Since General Jia has this intention, why not make a deal with us? You give us the letter, and we will take over General Kutu."
"Hahahaha!" Jia Kuizhuo laughed a few times, his eyes instantly became sharp and murderous. After a few glances, a group of Rong soldiers who were guarding outside the posthouse rushed in, raised their swords and pointed them at the Crown Prince Yuwen Jin and Tang Yuwei.
"Why don't I kill you two, search your bodies for the military map, and then hand your heads over to your second princess. This way, the two countries can be reconciled in one fell swoop!"
“Hahaha!” Although Yuwen Jin was being held at knifepoint, he showed no fear at all. Instead, he picked up the wine flask and took a sip. “General Jia is the backbone of the Rong State. His family has been generals for generations. How could he not know the principles of conspiracy and good reasoning!”
"General Jia has never thought that if the Second Princess really wants to be on good terms with the Rong Kingdom, why doesn't she send the military treasury map directly to the general, instead of letting the general travel thousands of miles to the Dapu Kingdom and risk his life!"
It's not that Gacquizhuo didn't know this truth, but he didn't trust anyone right now. He thought killing the two of them was just a way to scare them.
But this prince is not the same as the waste in the rumors. He is quite courageous! He can't help but want to make friends with him, but he still has to test it out.
"What the Crown Prince means is that you, the Second Princess, originally wanted to stir up trouble between the two countries! Then why should I trust you if you want to use this to cause chaos in the Rong Kingdom so that you can take advantage of it?"
Yuwen Jin stood up and said in a dignified manner, "I, General Tang and I are here today, and there is a general outside the door, just to express our sincerity. Give us the letter and leave this post station. General Jia, do you not trust your own people? Who else would go to Rong State to publicize it?"
When the stalemate was just happening, Jiang Chi suddenly rushed in from outside the door, holding a letter that had just been sent from Lord Guan in his hand. Unexpectedly, when he went to get the letter, a large number of knives were set up inside the door.
"Your Highness, General." Jiang Chi also drew his knife.
Tang Yuwei shouted to stop him, "Put it down!"
"Humph! You are so brave, young general!" Jia Kuizhuo said angrily, "What are you holding in your hand?"
"This is for our general! Don't order me!" Jiang Chi hesitated as he retracted the knife and thought about putting the letter back into his clothes on his chest.
Naga Kuizhuo rushed forward rudely and snatched it away in one go.
Jiang Chi said angrily, "You bastard!" He quickly drew his knife and put it on Jia Kuizhuo's neck.
"Don't move!" A Rong soldier quickly raised his knife and pointed it at Jiang Chi!
"You're quite courageous." Although Jiang Chi pointed a knife at Jia Kuizhuo, he was not afraid at all and opened the letter swiftly!
After taking a closer look, he said, "The Second Princess, that stupid woman, actually wanted to kill my niece. Why didn't you tell me earlier!" He looked at Tang Yuwei and then slammed the letter on the table in front of him.
Tang Yuwei picked up the letter, scanned it one by one, exchanged a knowing glance with the crown prince, and then looked at Jia Kuizhuo's angry expression, "Miss Xue is your maid?"
"You two fools, you thought you dared to come here alone and investigate me thoroughly!" Jia Kuizhuo folded his hands in front of his chest, "Forget it! Get out!"
After all the soldiers with swords had retreated, and Jia Kuizhuo had scolded the servants and maids to leave, he spoke again, "Yangyang's grandfather and my father are brothers. Our two countries have been at odds for many years, and it was only last time that I got to see this child!"
He changed the subject, "The letter said that you have arranged for someone to send her out safely! Tell me, when will you take her to Mobei? Are you lying to me?"
“Hahaha!” Yu Wenjin was overjoyed when he heard this, and patted Tang Yuwei on the shoulder and said, “General Jia, you are joking. Your nephew-in-law is sitting right here. How could he lie to you!”
"Nephew-in-law?"
