Quick Wear Binding Rescue System
Chapter 54: Saving the General 5
“Those ministers will probably wonder if we deliberately killed the general. But if after the general dies, I lead the army to wipe out the rebels and then sign a tribute-free war treaty with them, then no one will be able to shake your majesty’s authority.
Besides, even if I marry the other side's princess, it's just to contain the other side. My heart is with Your Majesty, and the princess is just a stepping stone between me and Your Majesty." Wei Yuanyao continued to bewitch.
After hearing the other party's explanation, Gao Huaiyu was no longer angry and turned around to spend time with the other party.
The emperor and the prime minister reached a cooperation with the rebels, and the general's office also launched operations.
During this period, Mu Ran felt that his health was not as good as before, and he always felt very sleepy.
Although he was prepared for the divine punishment, now as "Miss Lin", he could only lie in bed and recuperate.
He finally realized the horror of the heavenly punishment, but he did not tell He Zhiqiu. He was afraid that the other party would worry and fail to complete the final task. After all, they had more important things to do now and time was very tight.
So he could only stay in the house and sleep all day to recover his energy.
When the deputy general and others learned that Mu Ran could no longer participate in their activities, they all said that Mu Ran should rest more and take care of his health. They and the general would handle the rest of the matter.
He Zhiqiu and Ling Huaifeng decided to secretly visit his colleagues and friends who supported him to seek their support.
After more than half a month of negotiations, they finally solved the problem of food shortage and the problem of manpower.
After they had dealt with all these matters, the day of the emperor's selection of concubines finally arrived, and basically all the prominent families sent their daughters to the palace for the selection.
Mu Ran finally calmed down a bit at this time. He asked He Zhiqiu, "Among the people the general has contacted, has anyone sent their daughters or relatives to the palace for selection?"
He Zhiqiu certainly knew who were the candidates for the beauty pageant, and some of the people he contacted had sent their children or relatives to the palace for the beauty pageant.
So he told Mu Ran the truth. Mu Ran counted on his fingers but didn't say anything.
He Zhiqiu interrupted and said, "An Ran, you have already been injured because of this. You must not put yourself in danger again. You don't need to interfere in this matter anymore."
Mu Ran said helplessly: "General, this matter is not considered a leak of secrets, and it does not harm me. Moreover, you and the deputy general have not considered it carefully. After all, money can attract people and power can dazzle the eyes. General, you should prepare some backup plans just in case."
He Zhiqiu felt relieved when he heard Mu Ran say that he was fine and that Mu Ran's complexion did not get worse and he did not vomit blood after he finished speaking.
But when he thought carefully about Mu Ran's words, his face became serious again. He Zhiqiu immediately had a bad feeling and asked, "A Ran means that group of people will..."
Mu Ran said, "That's what the general is thinking. Don't doubt it. You still have some time to make preparations."
He Zhiqiu sat there in silence for a long time without saying a word. He had already contacted everyone he could. If that group of people really rebelled, they would probably lose the battle that A Ran mentioned.
Mu Ran suddenly said, "General, do you know that when the previous dynasty fell, everyone was saying that the remnants of the previous dynasty had buried a batch of national treasures.
As the beginning of their revival, but later on, for some reason, the news of the treasure spread among people. After many forces knew about it, they became interested and tried to hunt down the remnants of the previous dynasty, but the treasure was still not found. "
Hearing Mu Ran's words, He Zhiqiu also reacted and said, "What A Ran said is... I have heard about this matter, but this treasure has never appeared in the world. How can we find it?"
Mu Ran didn't say anything.
At this time, someone raised his hand and said, "General, I may know where the treasure is buried."
This person was none other than Xiao Liuzi, who played the double for He Zhiqiu last time. When he noticed that everyone's eyes were on him, he touched his nose uncomfortably and said, "My village is in the southernmost mountain. When I was young, I heard from the elders in the village that the mountain behind our village is not simple and there is a treasure in the mountain behind the village.
At that time, everyone treated this incident as a joke. After all, we had been to that mountain countless times and had not found any trace of treasure. We just thought that the old man was lying.
But now that I think about it carefully, the old man was not originally from our village. He seemed to have escaped to our village, but later he went crazy for some reason, so he spread rumors in the village that there was a treasure on the back mountain.
The time point mentioned by the old man also coincides with the time when the remnants of the previous dynasty buried the treasure, so I guess that the treasure may be in the mountains behind our village, but it was buried too deep and has not been discovered.
Of course, these are just my guesses. I am not sure whether they are true or not. Please understand, General."
Hearing Xiao Liuzi's words, everyone became excited and looked at Mu Ran.
Mu Ran neither shook his head nor nodded, but just looked at Xiao Liuzi without saying anything.
Everyone then calmed down and felt that this matter would definitely succeed.
He Zhiqiu also made a decision at this time. He gathered all his forces in the capital and headed south. Within three days, they found what they were looking for on an isolated mountain behind the southernmost village. They hurried to secretly transport the things back to the general's mansion.
Mu Ran looked at the things He Zhiqiu brought back, nodded with satisfaction and said, "With these things, it will not be a problem for the general to recruit soldiers and buy horses, and the problem of food and grass will also be solved."
He Zhiqiu also said: "This time it's all thanks to Xiao Liuzi, and of course it's all thanks to A Ran. If it weren't for you, this war would definitely be unsolvable."
Mu Ran said, "General, you are too kind. I just proposed a method. If it weren't for Xiao Liuzi, this method would not have succeeded. Besides, the final decision is made by the general.
Oh, there is one more thing I want to remind you, General. The origin of this war is rather strange, and our army has not received any support in terms of food and soldiers. I hope you will not take it lightly. "
Everyone's fiery hearts seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water. They had always ignored this matter and dared not mention it. Now that Mu Ran mentioned it again, they could no longer deceive themselves.
Ling Huaifeng spoke first: "Sir, what you mean is that someone in our dynasty has connections with the rebel army, so the enemy can get our intelligence, and they can also find a way to cut off our support and food! This puts us in a passive position."
