Chapter 67: 70,000 captive soldiers perish

Li Yu didn't care about Old Man Su's threat to him. He was thinking about how to get a piece of the pie in this event and increase some extra income for himself. Not only did he help Su Yue successfully complete this event in name, but in fact

You can also get some benefits, which is your real purpose.

After casually fooling Su Yue, the state guards who came to court happened to follow the crowd out of the palace and met Li Yu.

"Your Highness, what do you think? If I have some free time, I'll talk to you about something."

Li Yu smiled and said: "Yes, why not? I don't care who comes to see me. You are the old Taishan who is about to become Yu'er. Even if you are busy, I can't neglect you, right?" As he spoke, Li Yu said with a smile.

Jade showed a playful expression.

"You are poor, I am in dire straits, yet you are still smiling playfully." Zhu Guowei also responded with a smile, which was a rare thing for him who was usually serious.

Li Yu also chuckled and casually made a "please" gesture, which meant that he wanted the guards to go ahead and talk in detail after getting on the carriage.

When other people saw Weng and his son-in-law talking happily, some wanted to say hello to Prince Li Yu, but they gave up immediately. Knowing that the two of them had something to discuss, they stopped and did not come near to disturb them.

Ji Zongyuan had a frown on his face when he came out. Li Yu's suggestion this time actually posed a problem for himself. Bing Yinnian, the censor doctor, was originally the last one. If the donated silver mission department did not have

If he does well, as a doctor, he should be at the bottom.

For himself, this Bingyinnian did not take him seriously at all. According to Li Yu, although Bingyinnian was also ranked among the three princes, compared with the other two, he was not on the same level.

Now Ji Zongyuan's threat in this job is still Qian Zhentian and the third prince. Originally, the third prince was not something to be afraid of, but he could see the situation in the court today. After so many days, there was no progress in donating money.

, but it happened that Li Yu came back last night, and the matter turned around overnight, with subversive results. There was obviously Li Yu's shadow behind this matter.

Therefore, now it is not only Qian Zhentian who is a powerful opponent, but also the third prince Li Jimin, who should not be underestimated. Because with Li Yu's involvement, in terms of strength, he may be even more difficult than that Qian Zhentian.

After dealing with an opponent who had gone through several incidents, Ji Zongyuan knew the true strength of this foolish prince who was pretending to be crazy.

Besides, Li Yu and Zhu Guowei walked out of the palace chatting and laughing together, greeted their driver, turned around alone, and got directly into the carriage driven by Yu Canghai.

When the carriage reached a secluded place, Zhu Guowei and Li Yu sat side by side in the carriage. The two did not feel any embarrassment, because after getting along for a few days, they already had a tacit understanding, like a couple.

It’s like a friend we’ve made for a long time.

When he felt that there were no outsiders, Zhu Guowei said: "Your Highness, do you really think things are so simple in this court meeting?" Zhu Guowei, who had regained his serious expression, came up and spoke to Li Yu's heart.

"Of course not, but can the commander-in-chief know the inside story behind the matter?"

"Alas!" Zhu Guowei sighed and said, "If I knew this, what would I say to His Highness?"

"Commanders, don't you think about your future?" Li Yu did not talk about the strangeness of the court meeting, but talked about the personal interests of Zhu Guowei.

"Haha..." After a helpless and bitter smile, Zhu Guowei said: "I don't know that my commander-in-chief has come to an end, and the Blue Flag Army may have to change its ownership!"

Seeing Zhu Guowei's slightly frustrated look, Li Yu comforted him and said: "Old Taishan, Yu'er should say something that shouldn't be said. Now you have no way to serve the country. This is not caused by yourself, but because of your position.

Really, it's Yu'er who has dragged you down in this matter. If it weren't for Li Yu, you wouldn't be able to become my father's confidant. In that case, let alone the commander-in-chief of an army, even Qian Zhentian might not be able to compare with you.

"

"Your Highness, what's the use of what you say now, but if you don't say it's a drag or a drag, it's hard to achieve what you said just because of the character of the national guard. Many people can't do what you want, it depends on whether you have it or not.

That temperament."

After the guards of the country finished speaking, Li Yu thought about it. Although Qian Zhentian, the commander-in-chief of the army currently fighting foreign wars, has extremely high prestige and power, and was known as the "Dinghai Shenzhen Needle" in the army of the Great Shen Dynasty, he is getting older.

Sooner or later, he will live out his life and retire. Although Yunying belongs to the young and strong group, he is brave but lacks experience. Moreover, it is still unclear what the current situation will be like.

Only Zhu Shuai, when he was experienced and young, was the best candidate to succeed Qian Zhentian and become the royal army of the Great Shen Dynasty. Unfortunately, he was on the wrong team, of course because of Li Yu, and he

His upright character made him have too many enemies.

Why didn't Emperor Li Zhi know this? How could he use a man who had enemies on all sides? Moreover, with the participation of Prince Li Yu, control was also a problem. Therefore, the glory of the Zhuguowei was gone and they would gradually become idle in the future.

Poor, mixed pension will not give real power.

Regarding Li Yu's comfort to him, Zhu Guowei said: "Actually, I already knew the outcome of my marriage with you, but what I didn't expect was that this result would come so quickly. After the wedding, it is estimated that

Although I am extremely reluctant to leave the army, Taoist Master Kunyang has already made it clear that this will happen."

"Oh, really? It seems that that old Taoist is really not simple. He has such a profound Taoist practice and extraordinary foresight!" Li Yu said this without any bias. From his heart, he could see things through and

I had foreseen that it was still impossible for me to achieve such a level. This was mainly due to my unfamiliarity with this era and the relevant laws. The most important thing was my lack of information and my lack of analysis.

The basis of judgment.

Seeing that Zhu Guowei didn't really care about his future, he had other worries.

"I think it's right. If you don't serve as the commander-in-chief, in the long run, the benefits will outweigh the disadvantages for you, Old Taishan. However, even though you are talking to Yu'er now, you seem to have some hidden worries between your eyebrows."

Zhu Guowei still admires Li Yu for being able to read people's faces and understand their psychology. This is beyond what Li Yu should have had in his weak years. This is also his strength and intelligence. "Look, Your Highness.

Come out?"

Li Yu didn't speak, because although he could see that something was wrong with Zhu Guowei, he couldn't tell exactly what was worrying him. So he didn't ask rashly and waited for Zhu Guowei to tell him how he could be so eager.

If you are talking to your car mate, you must have something to say.

"Alas! What I'm worried about is the 70,000 captured soldiers on Jiming Mountain. If the emperor's past temperament is followed, they are most likely to be trapped and killed. In this way, the loss will still be the military strength of the Great Shen Dynasty, not to mention what they can do in future campaigns.

For the purpose of protecting the country and ensuring peace and stability, even if he is dismissed and goes home to farm and do business, it will have a certain role in promoting the prosperity of the Great Shen Dynasty. But if it is sacrificed like this, I don’t know how many families, wives and children will be separated, and how many human tragedies will occur.

Performed…”

Li Yu stopped talking at this time, because he did not expect that the guards of the various countries could not even keep their positions. At this time, he was still thinking about the fate of the 70,000 captured soldiers. He is worthy of being a loyal minister who cares about the country and the people. Li Yu will be in the future

If there were commanders like Zhu Guowei, how could the country be uneasy, how could the war be uneven, and how could the army not be strong?

Speaking of the matter of the captured soldiers, Li Yu had not thought about it. He had a hunch that he had the same idea as the guards of the country. The captured soldiers might not be saved. According to the emperor's temperament, how could this group of people not die?

If the soldiers of the Great Shen Dynasty dare to mutiny and rebel, then the precarious Great Shen Dynasty will not collapse.

"Commander, you and my father have different positions, and of course the methods of disposal are also different. We are considering the loss of military power of the Great Shen Dynasty, but what my father is considering is that after being bewitched by his opponent Li Zhong, he will be used

This group of soldiers will have a greater impact, so that there will continue to be mutinies and rebellions in the future. If they are not curbed with iron-blooded means, it may become increasingly difficult to control them in the end. After the rebellion, it is estimated that people will still be safe and sound.

No one who is the emperor can tolerate this happening."

"That's the problem, but even so, I still feel sad that the more than 70,000 soldiers of the Great Shen Dynasty died tragically in the hands of my own people. I would rather they died on the battlefield against the enemy, in the battles of neighboring countries.

That's all acceptable, but this..." Then Zhu Guowei sighed again, feeling very sad.

After a while, Zhu Guowei didn't want to worry about the troubles in front of him, and turned to Li Yu and asked: "I see you coming out, so why is Su Yue looking for you? I saw you two chattering for a long time."

"What else can there be, other than the civil and military competitions held when neighboring countries come to pay homage to congratulate me on my wedding? Su Yue just wants to take advantage of me to prepare various matters. I am not as safe as he is. If I start from

Finding a gimmick in this matter and making a lot of money is not what he is good at, so he came to me for this reason."

"Really? Then what do you want, Your Highness? Now that His Majesty has pulled Su Yue out, it shows that he attaches great importance to this matter. Of course, it is His Majesty's idea to donate money. He also approves of this event and has also pulled out Su Yue.

Chang Suyue, who has never left the Imperial Academy, came out. From this, we can see that His Majesty is in urgent need of silver. Ordinarily, he is the king of a country and should not be so snobbish. But by doing this, he is earning money so crazily.

, it is definitely not simply to fill the treasury, it must be used for other purposes, but we have not discovered it now."

The words of Zhu Guowei once again coincided with Li Yu. Li Yu began to wonder about some of Emperor Li Zhi's recent actions, because he was the king of a country. If he lacked money or the treasury was empty, he could find a way
