Chapter 1626 Looks... so ugly!

After half a month's sailing, Yun Zheng finally led his troops to Gaolin Port in Yuzhou.

Upon learning that Yun Zheng had arrived, Yao Baoju, who was resting in Gaolin Port, hurried over to greet him.

"Okay, no need to be polite!"

Yun Zheng waved his hand gently and immediately handed the battle report he had written to Han Jin: "Immediately take the heads of Yuan Ze and his son, and rush back to the imperial city as fast as you can to present the battle report to my father!"

"Yes!"

Han Jin took the order and did not dare to stay for a moment. He quickly took the two pickled and dehydrated human heads and left.

It was only at this time that Yun Zheng turned around and asked Yao Baoju: "Did the enemy navy cause us any damage?"

Minamoto Nagamasa also sent dozens of warships to harass the coast of Daqian.

He was now eager to know whether the coastal areas of Daqian had suffered any losses.

"no!"

Yao Baoju smiled brightly. "We discovered the enemy's navy as soon as it approached the coast. We engaged in a naval battle with the enemy and sank more than 30 enemy warships. The rest of the enemy warships fled in panic..."

When talking about this, Yao Baoju couldn't stop smiling.

He originally thought that the battle against Yu State had nothing to do with him.

As a result, this military achievement actually came to him.

How can anyone not be happy about such a good thing?

"That's good!"

The last big stone in Yun Zheng's heart fell to the ground completely: "I am in a hurry to return to the Imperial City, so I won't talk to you for now. You can discuss with Zhao Liuliang. After arranging the navy's affairs, you two will go to the Imperial City immediately! We can talk in detail then."

"what?"

Yao Baoju was slightly stunned. "Your Highness just came ashore, don't you want to take a rest?"

"Time is tight, so I won't take a break!"

Yun Zheng shook his head gently, "Alright, that's it! Zhao Liuliang will tell you the details!"

After saying that, Yun Zheng did not delay any longer and immediately took his personal guards, Jia Yao and others to rush to the imperial city. At the same time, he sent people to notify all places along the way to prepare supplies for them in advance.

Looking at the team going away, Yao Baoju couldn't help but stand there in a daze.

After a long time, Yao Baoju came back to his senses and asked Zhao Liuliang tentatively: "Is it His Majesty…"

"Ah."

Zhao Liuliang nodded gently, "Okay, let's arrange the navy's affairs first!"

Although they won the battle, there was still a lot of things to do.

He also had to discuss with Yao Baoju the matter of the Naval Academy that Yun Zheng had talked to him about on the way back.

The purpose of this trip to the Imperial City, in addition to receiving the title, was to finalize the matter of the Naval Academy.

……

Imperial City.

Emperor Wen had been bedridden for many days, and his health was getting worse day by day.

The imperial physician in the palace is also on call around the clock.

"Dengdeng..."

A sound of hurried footsteps came from outside.

Mu Shun trotted all the way to Emperor Wen's bedside, and said to the drowsy Emperor Wen with an excited face: "Your Majesty, there is good news from Yu Country! Han Jin has returned with the heads of the father and son of the thief Yuan..."

Hearing Mu Shun's words, Emperor Wen suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes and uttered three words with difficulty: "Bring him in!"

"Yes!"

Mu Shun took the order and quickly brought in Han Jin who was waiting outside.

Han Jin rode his horse all the way back as soon as he got ashore, and now he was in a very miserable state.

But he didn't care about his appearance. He just carried the two boxes and quickly came to Emperor Wen's bedside.

"General Han Jin, I kowtow to His Majesty!"

Han Jin knelt down with a bang, "Your Highness the Sixth Prince has destroyed the Yu Kingdom and changed it to Yingzhou. I have been ordered to deliver the heads of the Yuan thief and his son to Your Majesty!"

Hearing Han Jin's words, all the palace maids, eunuchs and imperial doctors in the bedroom knelt down immediately.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"When the majesty's majesty reaches you, all the barbarians will submit!"

Everyone congratulated.

"Okay... cough cough..."

Emperor Wen coughed heavily, a look of relief appeared on his face, and he said to Mu Shun impatiently: "Quick! Help...help me up..."

Mu Shun looked at Emperor Wen with concern and whispered to him, "Your Majesty, just lie down and rest!"

"Hel me up!"

Emperor Wen suddenly raised his voice, "I am the Emperor of Daqian, how can I... just lie down and watch this bastard's head being cut off?"

Seeing that Emperor Wen insisted, Mu Shun could only carefully help Emperor Wen up.

Emperor Wen sat down with difficulty, trying to maintain his imperial dignity. His eyes fell on the box in Han Jin's hand: "Open it!"

The eunuch next to him hurried forward, took the wooden box from Han Jin and opened it.

Although the heads of Minamoto no Nagamasa and his son had been pickled, an unpleasant smell still came when the box was opened.

Mu Shun quickly raised his hand and fanned to help Emperor Wen dispel the unpleasant smell.

Emperor Wen cast a scorching gaze upon the two heads, and a long-lost glow of blood appeared on his pale face.

After a long while, Emperor Wen asked Han Jin, "Is this... really the head of the father and son of the thief Yuan?"

"Absolutely true!"

Han Jin nodded heavily and pointed at the head of Genjiro and said, "This is Genjiro, the son of Minamoto Nagamasa. This thief was skinned and his tendons were taken out by General Qin Qihu himself!"

"The bastard Minamoto Nagamasa was hacked to pieces by his own soldiers and brought before His Highness to claim the reward!"

"Your Highness only kept the head of this bastard, and the rest was fed to the dogs..."

Although this happened a long time ago.

But when he talked about this again in front of Emperor Wen, Han Jin still felt extremely relieved.

The only regret is that they haven't caught Yuan Qianxiu yet.

However, he believed that they would catch this thief sooner or later.

While listening to Han Jin's story, Emperor Wen stared at the two shriveled human heads.

"You look... so ugly!"

After a long time, Emperor Wen finally spoke again.

“It’s really ugly.”

Han Jin grinned, and immediately took out the battle report from his arms and presented it respectfully: "This is the battle report written by His Highness the Sixth Prince himself! His Highness the Sixth Prince is already on his way back, and will be back in the Imperial City in two or three days at most..."

"well……"

Emperor Wen showed a gratified smile on his face, "Quick, read the battle report... to me!"

As he spoke, Emperor Wen showed an expectant look on his face.

Mu Shun quickly supported Emperor Wen with one hand and took the battle report and opened it with the other.

"Your son Yun Zheng reports to His Majesty: On April 21st, your son led the navy to set out from Xiongjin..."

Mu Shun read the battle report word by word, his voice exceptionally clear.

Yun Zheng’s battle report was also extremely detailed.

In the past, Yun Zheng’s battle reports basically only described the general process, or even did not even describe the general process, and were basically just about the battle damage and the like.

Moreover, most of the battle losses were falsely reported.

But this time, Yun Zheng's battle report not only described the process of every battle they encountered with the enemy, but also wrote about the casualties and results in great detail.

This even included his plans to let the Yu people fight against each other.

Finally, Yun Zheng told Emperor Wen in the letter that Beihuan had given up the idea of ​​rebuilding Beihuan overseas and would gradually be incorporated into Daqian.

When Mu Shun finished reading the battle report, Emperor Wen finally couldn't help laughing.

"Okay! Okay!"

"I have no regrets in this life!"

"Ha ha……"

Emperor Wen laughed uncontrollably, but his breathing suddenly became rapid.

Mu Shun noticed that something was wrong with Emperor Wen and quickly shouted, "Imperial Physician!"
