Father is on top, I was wrong

Dali Temple,? Water Prison.

A figure wrapped in a deep black cloak stood in front of the prison door with his hands behind his back, with a slight smile on his wrinkled eyes and brows.

"Bang" sound,? The outer iron gate in the distance closed.

There are only two people in here.

The black cloak fell down, revealing the man's gray hair.

"Jijiu is a good skill. I have spent so many years of hard work, but I can't get him out of Bianjing. Master Jijiu did it with ease. I don't know how?"

The man in the water prison snorted and didn't answer, but instead asked, "Master Wang, when are you going to fulfill your promise?"

He's had enough of being stuck here powerless.

Wang Bao smiled softly, "Don't worry, at least you have to tell the officer whether Wen Wujue will come back or not."

Liu Xuan lowered his eyelids with a cold face.

He knew that Wang Bao—once he knew that Wen Wujue would never come back,? Then his life would be worthless,? He—would kill him.

But now he has no idea, he can't see through Wen Wujue's scheming.

If he wasn't afraid of death, why did he drink the potion with him that day?

If he is afraid of death, at least he should be spared and forced to hand over the antidote.

But he didn't mention the antidote from the beginning to the end, and he didn't seem to care.

Could it be that he has already guessed that the so-called poison and medicine are non-existent?

Of course the imperial physician can't find anything,? After all, it's not poison at all.

But what does it matter?As long as people believe that they are poisoned, they will not believe the words of the imperial physician.

If Wen Wujue believed that he was poisoned and thought that his life was not long, so he resigned from office and left Bianjing, this might make sense.

But if that's the case, he should ask him for an antidote.

Liu Xuan thought about it, but he didn't even think about what Wen Wujue was planning.

Wang Bao saw that he hadn't spoken for a long time, his eyes turned cold unconsciously, and his voice was also tinged with coldness.

"Master Jijiu, this is still a dungeon, you haven't left yet."

Liu Xuan came back to his senses, met Shang Wang Bao's eyes that couldn't hide his murderous intent, and mentally made up his rhetoric.

He said slowly: "He will come back, after all he thought I had given him some rare poison."

"You cheated on him?" Wang Bao suddenly became annoyed, "Why didn't you just finish him off?"

Liu Xuan sneered and said: "Then Mr. Wang will be cheaper, and the next official will die without a place to bury him."

Wang Bao forcibly held back his anger, thinking that Wen Wujue might come back, he suddenly felt choked up, feeling that he would be thwarted in everything he did.

After suffering for so many years, the opportunity is close at hand, within easy reach, but it is impossible to get it.

Liu Xuan seemed to see through him, "Master Wang kept his promise and got me out. As long as he dares to come back, the next official will naturally have a way to make him think that his own poison has not been cured. He will believe it only if I live to tell him." .”

The hostility in Wang Bao's eyes was deep, and the drooping corners of his eyes looked even harsher.

He hated such an uncontrolled collaborator like Liu Xuan, but there was nothing he could do.

Finally, he said coldly, "In three days, someone will pick you up."

Then walk away.

At the end of the long corridor in the prison, two figures leaned out, their armor reflecting the cold light under the candlelight.

Xu Ding said in a low voice: "It seems that the prime minister is not poisoned, the emperor need not worry."

Xiao Gui didn't speak, the air pressure in his whole body was very low.

He noticed something unusual that day, and when he asked his father-in-law, he even made up a bunch of lies to deceive him.

Even leaving quietly.

He's going to explode!

What begs for the bones?Then you have to beg first before leaving, right?

He didn't even agree, why should he leave?

Seeing that his eyes were dark, Xu Ding pursed his lips tightly and walked straight forward.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Liu Xuan became vigilant immediately. As soon as he turned his head to look, he was tied around his neck by a thick whip that came from the air.

Xiao Gui stopped talking nonsense to him this time.

Wrapped a whip around his neck, then hung it up vigorously, stuck it on the wooden bar of the cell door, and pressed it tightly back.

Liu Xuan struggled vigorously with both feet, his face turned blue, and he tried to pull the whip around his neck with his hands, but he couldn't pull it away, and he couldn't utter a sound from his mouth.

After a while, the strength of his struggle gradually weakened, and he gradually calmed down, his pupils dilated.

Xiao Gui suddenly - whipped his whip, and the corpse immediately slid down.

The hostility in his eyes did not dissipate, Xu Ding was slightly startled.

"emperor……"

Xiao Gui interrupted him in a cold voice, "Next time you dare to hide it from me, you will end up in the same way."

Xu Ding: "...Yes, the general will remember."

Afterwards, the two quietly left from the secret passage of the water prison, not even disturbing a fly.

——A round of cold moon is embedded on the top of the mountain, overlooking the huge capital of Bianjing indifferently.

Banners fluttered outside the city, and [-] imperial troops gathered urgently.

Xu Ding immediately swung his sword, turned his head to look at the high city wall, and suddenly felt emotional.

This - to go, is to give up Bianjing.

It's okay for him to be a subject, Xiao Gui is the emperor, and the foundation of the ancestral temple is here, if he sticks to it, even if he is a puppet, he is still an emperor.

If you give up categorically, the aristocratic family will turn against you, that is to compete in the world, and the success or failure is unpredictable.

He pondered for a while, rode his horse towards Xiao Gui, and said after deliberation: "Your Majesty, according to the prime minister's intention, you should take the Mingjiang waterway. If you cross the river, there is danger to defend, so the general thought that you should take the official road in the northeast direction. , go to the riverside."

Xiao Gui glanced at him and said: "The prime minister has already put his seal on him, he is now a commoner."

Xu Ding: "..."

He deeply felt that the current Xiao Gui was really difficult to serve, his words were lukewarm, and he still couldn't figure out his thoughts.

"Then Yicheng...Wen Wujue's strategy may require some ferries. Why don't we let a cavalry set off first to buy ships along the river? What does the emperor think?"

Xiao Gui was silent for a while, Xu Ding almost acquiesced to this method, but he suddenly spoke.

"Why should I follow the strategy of a commoner?"

Xu Ding: "..."

Li Ling next to him couldn't stand it any longer, and raised his eyelids, signaling Xu Ding not to get into trouble at this time.

He was well aware of the emperor's thoughts on Wen Wujue, and the emperor had no place to get angry now.

After the men and horses were assembled, Xiao Guifang ordered coldly: "Let's go, take the official road to the northwest."

……

March in a hurry at night, rest once every two hours.

After resting on the spot, Li Ling helped - get the old bone off the horse, walked to Xiao Gui's side, and handed him a water bag.

"Your Majesty, drink some water. It will be dawn, and there are still two hours left."

Xiao Gui was squatting beside the bonfire, holding a piece of handkerchief and was wiping the tip of the gun, without squinting, he wiped the silver-gray gun body until it was shiny.

Li Ling yelled several times, but he stared at him, "Get lost!"

Li Ling: "..."

Go away, just go away.

Isn't it just a man?As for being so half-dead?

Xu Ding saw it not far away and shook his head.

But seeing Li Ling walking towards him, he smiled wryly.

"Now I can stay as far away from him as I can."

"The commander marches and fights, but the slaves don't. The slaves serve people, so there's no way we can't help it."

Xu Ding sighed, "Now he doesn't even listen to the prime minister's words, he doesn't take the Northeast official road, he doesn't cross the Ming River, it takes at least twice the time to walk this road, in case there is a change in Bianjing, catch up, or they Cross the Ming River first, seize the opportunity..."

Li Ling has a different opinion on this point.

"My servant thinks that the commander is worrying too much. All the forbidden troops have been taken away by the emperor, and now Bianjing is a piece of fat that no one guards, and all those aristocratic families are ready to move. Not to mention that they haven't been able to organize troops so quickly. After catching up, even if the army is temporarily formed, I am afraid that they are busy fighting among themselves, and it is unlikely to pick on our hardest thorn."

Xu Ding didn't think of this at the time. After thinking about it carefully, it made sense, but, "It's just a waste of time, and it's also useless."

Li Ling just nodded and didn't speak.

He thinks he has a little understanding of the emperor's temperament, and privately thinks that the emperor may have other plans under the seemingly stubborn and paranoid surface.

Could it be that Wen Wujue left and took this path?

Now that he has set up a strategy for the emperor to confront the north and the south, it is unlikely that he will stay in Bianjing—and may go north.

With his sickly body, he should also choose to take the Mingjiang waterway, right?Otherwise, the horses and horses will be exhausted and the time will be long, which will be even more unbearable.

The emperor went northwest, didn't he consider that?Or are you completely desperate?

Of course Li Ling hoped it was the latter, after all, what is a man with a man?Irregular.

but……

He turned his head, looked at his gloomy, stern, taciturn look, and sighed, feeling a little distressed.

Yuyang City.

Here is still located in the south of the Ming River, a land of rice, fish and rice, rich and prosperous, most of which are the farmlands of the aristocratic families.

——A dusty and inconspicuous carriage wandered into the city, passed through the noisy long street, and went straight to the shaft, but instead of stopping at the door, it made a detour and stopped at the side of the small door behind. up.

Standing at the small gate was a young man more than seven feet long and dressed in armor. When he saw the carriage, he immediately went up to meet it.

"The last general pays homage to the prime minister."

The soldiers around the young man were all startled, they didn't expect such a big man to come, they hurriedly bowed their hands to see.

The curtain of the car opened, and Lu Jia jumped down first, holding a simple baggage in his hand.

Then there was Wen Bo, who slid down on the shaft of the car, and stretched out his hand again.

Everyone saw a pale young man getting off the sedan chair, with a handsome appearance and neat clothes.

Gao Shenxian knew that he was not in good health, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

"The prime minister is exhausted, it's hard work."

This place is far away from the capital, and many people have only heard of the prime minister's name, but have never met him, so they were stunned.

The prime minister is so young?

And she looks so... good-looking?

Only then did I know that the rumors were true: Pan An was more handsome than Zijian, and Zijian was more talented.

Wen Wujue took Gao Shenxian's hand, said with a light smile, "I've already got my seal, please call me by my name from now on."

"The end will not dare."

Gao Shenxian is now in charge of food and grass in the rear - should be responsible for the military affairs, he can be regarded as a high position in the army, and all of these are cultivated by Wen Wujue - hand in hand.

He can be regarded as the noble man who changed his life.

Wen Wujue waved his hand, "It's okay. Now I also need to hide my identity, and I can't publicize it to the outside world."

"...Yes." Gao Chenxian thought for a while, then said: "My lord."

Gao Shenxian acted meticulously and properly. After knowing that Wen Wujue intended to conceal his identity, he arranged for them—passers-by—the most hidden courtyard in the courtyard, and the courtyard was close to the back door, so no one was allowed to enter and exit.

Wen Wujue was very satisfied, "Very good."

After confirming to stay, Wen Bo led Lu Jia to tidy up the yard, and left the two of them talking inside.

"Young master wrote a letter a few days ago, and the general will cross the river from the north immediately. The chariots, horses and soldiers prepared by the young master in Yuyang are all ready, but I don't know, what's the use?"

Wen Wujue took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and asked, "How many soldiers and horses did you bring?"

"Time is urgent. In order to cover people's eyes and ears, the last general only brought a thousand elites. Now most of them are scattered in the city, disguised as ordinary people."

Wen Wujue nodded, and slowly said why.

"Presumably you also know that the aristocratic family is becoming more and more rampant nowadays, the empty treasury is empty, and the people are getting poorer. The situation in Bianjing is becoming more and more severe day by day. The death of Mr. Guo is enough to show that the aristocratic family has no scruples now. In addition, they colluded with the too students who will become officials in the future, their behavior is brutal and heinous."

Gao Shenxian has been in the north for a long time, he knows little about the affairs of the capital, and never participated in the struggle.But he has been raising food and grass in the rear, so he knows how greedy these aristocratic families are, how harsh the exploitation of the people is, and even robs the wasteland reclaimed by the people, and forces the people to sell good land at a low price, etc.

"The chaos in the country is imminent. Instead of being passive when the time comes, it's better to take the initiative and seize the opportunity. It can also be resolved quickly." Wen Wujue said resolutely: "When the war begins, the most needed thing is food. "

When Gao Chenxian heard this, he suddenly understood.

Yuyang is rich and prosperous, and the aristocratic family has a lot of food here.

"The prime minister wants to take away Yuyang's food?"

"That's right." Wen Wujue said: "Not only Yuyang, but also the food of the aristocratic families in the nearby cities have to be transported away."

"But—thousands of horses...I'm afraid it's not enough."

Wen Wujue shook his head, "No, when the news of the civil turmoil in Bianjing comes, the chaos here will follow, and we will take advantage of the chaos."

Gao Shenxian nodded immediately, "The general understands, the general will make arrangements now."

"Go."

Gao Chenxian retreated with his arms folded, walked to the door, and suddenly a soldier came in, "General, this is the news from Meteor Horse, the emperor is almost in Yuyang."

Both people in the room were stunned.

Wen Wujue was also dumbfounded, Xiao Gui didn't listen to him?Didn't take the Mingjiang waterway?

Gao Chenxian asked people to step back, removed the wax from the letter, and quickly glanced at it.

"Young master, it is written by the emperor himself."

"What did you write?"

"The emperor's intention is the same as that of the son. Let the general seize the granary of the family and transport it to the north of Mingjiang. Secondly..."

Wen Wujue was rather surprised that Xiao Gui thought of going with him.

He originally thought that he could quietly supervise the matter of food and grass here, but he never thought that he would actually come here in person.

"What else did you say?"

Gao Shenxian paused, hesitated a little, "The emperor said, if you see the prime minister, you must detain him and then notify him."

Wen Wujue: "..."
