The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world
Chapter 446 Cui Hao's Freedom 4
Cui Hao's heart tightened.
Xiong's Army?! Could it be the Xiong's Army that Xiong Hui had in the northwest back then?!
Although Cui Hao lived in the northwest, he still knew something about the situation in the capital. He knew that Xiong Hui's Xiong Family Army, because Xiong Hui followed the missing Crown Princess, finally with the help of the Crown Princess and Prince Ning, asked the late Emperor Kangdi to revise their case of treason and collaborating with the enemy, which allowed them to gain a foothold in the court again.
Xiong Hui, whose injustice was finally redressed, became an important soldier in Prince Ning's hands. They played an indispensable role in Prince Ning's overthrow of Prince Duan.
Now, the emperor is going to summon Xiong Hui into the palace again, and he must be heading to the northwest.
If the Xiong family army enters the northwest again, what will happen next...
When Cui Hao thought about what would happen next, he ran over and knelt in front of Tian Muyu and Jixiang, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I will tell you everything!"
Upon seeing this, Tian Muyu winked at Eunuch Guo, who was about to go out to summon Xiong Hui into the palace.
Eunuch Guo understood and waited obediently on the side.
At this time, Cui Hao finally spoke, "Your Majesty, that Third Young Master Sun is your brother, the current Prince of Qiong, Tian Muqiong."
"So where is he now?!" Tian Muyu asked.
"Of course it's in Ganzhou City in the northwest."
"Then you write a letter to Sun Sanshao and ask him to help you raise 400,000 silver taels and 1,000 war horses. Who is this Sun Sanshao?"
"He is a guard beside King Qiong, his name is Pang San."
"Guard Pang?!" Tian Muyu was surprised. "Guard Pang followed you to the capital?!"
When Tian Muqiong was captured by the National Protection Army, Guard Pang disappeared after failing to save his master. Unexpectedly, he followed them all the way to the northwest, and he turned out to be a loyal man.
"The governor of the National Protection Army was actually controlled by a prince who only brought one guard with him. He must have caught something on you. Let me guess, what is this handle in his hand?" Jixiang deliberately walked in front of Cui Hao.
"Is this evidence that you embezzled military pay?!" Jixiang suddenly turned around to look at Cui Hao, and saw that Cui Hao did not move.
"Or maybe, you are having an affair with someone from Xiliang?!" Jixiang said again.
Cui Hao quickly corrected him, "Please don't make such assumptions, Queen. Although I, Cui Hao, am careless and don't often return to the capital, I will never sell out my country for personal gain."
"Since you have never sold out your country, then the only reason is greed. How much have you greedily taken that my Third Brother has seized your lifeblood? At the age of over sixty, you still have to follow his orders and come to the capital to kidnap others?!"
Cui Hao hesitated and refused to continue.
Jixiang knew at a glance that Cui Hao must have embezzled a lot of money, but he was more interested in how Tian Muqiong controlled this old fox Cui Hao.
Therefore, she stopped asking how much Cui Hao had embezzled and instead asked, "My third brother was able to control you, so I guess you must have treated him well in the beginning."
After Jixiang said this, Cui Hao's grievances came flooding back.
He seemed to have met a soulmate, and blurted out, "Your Majesty is indeed a wise person. If I had not understood that he was the son of the late emperor, I would never have been in this predicament today."
Seeing Cui Hao's defense broken, Tian Muyu looked at his queen with admiration, "Oh, so my third brother has never suffered any injustice from you?"
"I am the one who has to bear all the grievances!" Cui Hao was so aggrieved that he was about to burst into tears.
Jixiang quickly stopped him, "You still don't have the face to tell me how you were restrained by my third brother?"
Cui Hao hesitated again.
"Forget it, forget it. Since Lord Cui doesn't want to tell His Majesty about his pain, His Majesty doesn't need to worry about you anymore. Even if the Third Prince relies on your National Defense Army to rebel, he can't do it. Prince Duan has ascended the throne of the Emperor. In the end, won't he still stay in his fiefdom?"
"In my opinion, it's time to move my third brother's fiefdom to a new place. Guo Ziyi, ask the Minister of Revenue to come over. I want to discuss with him the fiefdom of the King of Qiong."
Eunuch Guo left immediately.
Cui Hao saw that the emperor and the queen were going to ignore his affairs again, and he became anxious again, "Tian Muqiong used my money to bribe all my subordinates!"
After Cui Hao finished speaking, he felt so ashamed that he wanted to bury his head in the ground.
"I originally thought he was a prisoner with no help around him, so I just threw him in jail and gave him food and water to keep him alive."
"But one day, he suddenly asked a jailer to tell me that he wanted to meet me. I thought that since he was Emperor Likan's biological son, maybe we could work together. Unexpectedly, when I met him, the first thing he asked was, what benefits would I give him if he could help him ascend the throne?"
Jixiang looked at Tian Muyu and found that he was still fighting for the throne. There was nothing new about it.
So the two of them lazily sat back in their seats and listened to Cui Hao continue talking.
"I know that Kou Peilin and the concubines in the palace can no longer help the Third Prince, but since he brought it up, I naturally have to ask him how he can help me. As a result, he didn't even think about it and said that his mother and grandfather hid a lot of gold and silver in the Nether Valley to help him ascend the throne in the future. But Kou Peilin suddenly encountered an accident, so he had to go and get the gold and silver."
"And you believed it?" Jixiang asked with interest.
"I first wanted to take it myself, but the Third Prince was not stupid and refused to tell me where the treasures were. Later, I sent a personal guard to stay with him, hoping to steal some information. I didn't expect that my personal guard was bribed by him and joined forces with him to rob my study."
Tian Muyu suddenly asked, "What did he take from your study?"
Cui Hao was about to cry again.
Jixiang quickly stretched out her hand to stop him, "Master Cui, hold on, you must hold on." She advised Cui Hao with her mouth, but in her heart she was criticizing Tian Muqiong. If she had known that all the things had been stolen by Tian Muqiong, she should have secretly made a trip to the northwest and took action first.
Alas, it’s too late to say anything now. I guess Tian Muqiong took a lot of things from Cui Hao.
But no matter what he took, he would not have a chance to jump around in the Great Holy Dynasty.
With her and Tian Muyu around, no one can cause any trouble again.
"What did my third brother do with the things he took from your study? Did he use them to recruit soldiers?" Jixiang looked at Cui Hao, who looked like he wanted to beat him to death, and felt very gloating.
"He, he really did recruit soldiers and buy horses! The horses were bought from the people of Xiliang, but the men are all mine!"
"It was a month later when I found out about this."
"Then you didn't stop him?" Tian Muyu also felt that Cui Hao was not as difficult to deal with as he had heard. He could be played around by Tian Muqiong. He really didn't know how he got the title of King of Hell in the Northwest.
"But he gave each soldier 100 taels of silver, and those soldiers followed him wholeheartedly. When I gathered the troops, I found that more than half of the soldiers had become his men."
"Hahahaha! Third brother really has some skills, hahaha." Jixiang laughed wildly, and even Tian Muyu on the side couldn't help but want to laugh with her.
But looking at Cui Hao who was in so much pain that he wanted to die, he forced himself not to laugh.
"So, my third brother took your money and bought your soldiers? Then he turned around and targeted you?!" Tian Muyu asked, trying hard to hide the smile on his lips.
Cui Hao nodded desperately, "Yes, yes, he used the same method to buy the people around me later, spending twice as much money."
"So you have no choice but to submit to him and come to the capital?!"
Cui Hao nodded vigorously again, "If I don't come, he will take my life!"
Seeing Cui Hao, the once powerful lord in the northwest, now like a chicken in the water, Jixiang finally sighed, "It's the time, it's the fate, Lord Cui has a miserable life."
