Chapter 1155 Tong Ying commits suicide

Qin Liu dares?

Yun Li thought about it for a moment and understood what they meant.

Originally, the most suitable person to negotiate with Yun Zheng must be Emperor Wen.

However, given Emperor Wen's current condition, if anyone dared to ask him to negotiate with Yun Zheng, he would probably be drowned by the spit of all the civil and military officials in the court.

Since Emperor Wen could not go, it was natural that his most trusted old brother would go.

Looking at the entire court, apart from Emperor Wen, it is estimated that only the old rogue Qin Liugan can suppress Yun Zheng in terms of momentum and gain more benefits for the court.

If Qin Liugan gets angry, this old rogue will probably fight with Yun Zheng on the spot.

Moreover, Qin Liugan's son Qin Qihu is a general in Shuobei. If Yun Zheng dares to do anything to Qin Liugan, Qin Qihu will probably lead his troops to kill his entire family.

Originally, Yun Li’s candidate was Zhao Ji.

But after thinking about it, I still feel that Qin Liugan is more suitable.

"Then Qin Liu dares!"

Yun Li made the decision and said, “It’s just right. Let Qin Liugan go back to the imperial city first and let him go and talk to the emperor and enlighten him…”

This is a two-pronged approach.

Up to now, Emperor Wen has been the emperor, and only Qin Liu dares to be such a friend and brother!

Sometimes, Qin Liugan’s guidance might be more effective than that of the crown prince.

"The prince is wise!"

The four of them flattered him together.

"You are wise!"

Yun Li glanced at the four of them unhappily, "Father asked you four to assist me, not to play tricks on me!"

"I would rather hear honest advice than watch you all try to protect yourselves!"

"If even the four of you regents don't dare to speak honestly, who among the civil and military officials in the court dares to speak honestly?"

"I will not pursue today's matter! But I hope you will remember that since ancient times, the so-called loyal ministers are those who died for their advice and those who died for their military service!"

"I also hope that the four of you can set an example for the civil and military officials in the court! As long as you speak honestly and honestly, no matter how unpleasant it is, I will never pursue it!"

"If all the civil and military officials in the court can work together, even if the court's current military strength is not as good as Lao Liu's, even if we endure humiliation now, we will surely win in the future!"

It was rare for Yun Li to talk about profound principles with the four people.

In the past, it was always four people who reasoned with him.

Of course, this was also his knock on the four of them.

The four regents were all playing tricks on him. What was going on?

If you have any ideas, go play with that bastard Yun Zheng!

"Your Highness the Crown Prince will remember your instructions!"

The four of them bowed together, secretly sighing in their hearts.

Yun Li is becoming more and more like an emperor.

His speech and behavior gradually acquired the air of an emperor.

Xu Shifu was even more deeply moved.

The Yun Li now has too many ideas of his own and is no longer the Yun Li who used to obey him.

In the past, he was the uncle of the Third Prince.

Now, he is just the regent minister left by Emperor Wen for the prince, and the relationship between him and Yun Li is that of monarch and subject!

There are some things that even he is not comfortable saying directly, let alone people like Xiao Wanchou and Tang Shu.

Yun Li waved his hand, stood up and said: "Okay, I won't complain to you anymore, you all go and get busy! I will also go and chat with father..."

After several people bowed and left, Yun Li calmed down a little before leaving the Prince's Mansion.

Along the way, Yun Li was thinking about how to explain this matter to Emperor Wen so that he would not get angry.

He doesn't want to sit on the throne right now.

He only hoped that Emperor Wen could hold on for a few more years.

It would be best to hold on until he has assembled an elite army capable of competing with Yun Zheng.

From the house searches a few days ago, it can be seen that the court’s foundation is definitely far superior to that of Shuobei.

The imperial court actually has a lot of military strength now. If they make up their minds, they can definitely gather an army of 500,000 to fight Yun Zheng.

But the biggest disadvantage of the imperial court was that most of its troops had never been on the battlefield.

However, the army under Yun Zheng's command is a group of elite soldiers who have fought in hundreds of battles!

In order to defeat Yun Zheng, the imperial court must prepare an elite army and eliminate the imperial army's fear of that bastard Lao Liu!

Yun Li kept thinking, and his thoughts became clearer and clearer.

……

"Lord Sun, am I being too tactful? Or is there something wrong with the third brother's ability to understand?"

In the Minzhou Governor's Mansion, Yun Zheng was having a heart-to-heart talk with Sun Ji.

He has already received the document sent by the court.

The court made it very clear in the document that Qin Liugan was appointed as the imperial commissioner to inspect Minzhou and thoroughly investigate Tian Hong's case of rebellion.

Yun Zheng also understood that the imperial court was going to send Qin Liugan to negotiate with him.

Things like inspecting Minzhou are just talk for face.

However, there was no mention of Sun Ji and his son in the court documents!

The third brother did not send a private message to express whether he wanted to use silver to redeem Sun Ji and his son.

He even suspected that the third brother wanted to use him to kill Sun Ji, the useless military commander.

"Your Majesty, this... this is definitely not what you think!"

Sun Ji said anxiously: "I guess that Duke Rong came here to negotiate with the prince. The matter between me and my son should...should also be included in the negotiation..."

"Yep……"

Sun Qi nodded repeatedly, "That must be the case."

"Okay! Let's wait and see!"

Yun Zheng smiled and said, "I hope the Third Brother will still consider the relationship between you two!"

After chatting with the father and son for a few words, Yun Zheng left the room.

He did not make things difficult for the father and son, but simply emptied the Sun Mansion.

In addition to the confiscated property of Tianhong, he also gained nearly 800,000 taels of silver this time.

To be honest, he was a little dissatisfied with this gain.

He also thought that Tian Hong had been doing business in Minzhou for many years and must have embezzled millions of taels of silver!

Unexpectedly, Tian Hong only embezzled more than 400,000 taels of silver, and with some gifts he received, it could be worth more than 200,000 taels of silver.

He didn't know whether he overestimated Tian Hong or Tian Hong was too timid.

This time, I really can only make up for the losses from the third brother.

The third brother must have been involved in a lot of house-raiding activities recently, and he must have made a fortune.

At least you should give some to yourself, right?

Just as Yun Zheng was sitting in the yard, lost in thought, a guard suddenly came in and reported: "Your Highness, Tong Ying's guards want to see you!"

Tong Ying’s personal soldiers?

Yun Zheng frowned slightly.

Why did Tong Ying's personal soldiers come to find him?

He has also been in Gan Tang for several days.

He met Tong Ying on the day he went to the army to arrest people, and never saw her again after that.

He and Tong Ying seemed to have reached a tacit understanding.

He did not touch Gan Tang's garrison and county soldiers, and Tong Ying did not touch him.

It would make sense if Tong Ying came suddenly, but why did Tong Ying's personal soldiers come?

While he was in doubt, Yun Zheng ordered again: "Bring it in!"

"Yes!"

The Guards took the order and left.

Soon, the Royal Guards brought Tong Ying's personal soldiers to Yun Zheng.
