The Reborn Wife is Farming
Chapter 544: The End (Part 2)
The ministers were silent, but the second prince saw their slightly resistant attitude, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.
Obviously, those officials who let Qi Xiuyuan and General Yuan go did not recognize him as the emperor in their hearts.
At this time, outside the city, Qi Xiuyuan was reading a secret letter, he burned the letter, turned around and smiled at Rong Xuan: "Mr. Li and the children are safe."
Rong Xuan smiled and said, "Congratulations, General." He lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then said, "It's just that Master Qi is still in Lin'an City."
Qi Xiuyuan lowered his eyes and said, "General Yuan's family is inside, we just need to follow General Yuan's actions."
Rong Xuan nodded, the time has not come, this is indeed the best way.
"Any news about the eighth and tenth princes?"
Rong Xuan shook his head, "Our people have not been found, we have lost track of them, should we send more people?"
Qi Xiuyuan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's just two children of a few years old. Let's deal with the affairs in Lin'an City first."
Unlike Qi Xiuyuan, General Yuan sent most of his men to look for the two princes.
He would never allow the second prince who murdered his father and brother to become emperor. In that case, he would only be able to find two princes and protect them to ascend the throne.
General Yuan dispatched his men, and now he had time to send a message to Qi Xiuyuan, asking him to come to discuss important matters.
Qi Xiuyuan went to General Yuan's camp frankly and frankly with only a team of people, which made General Yuan admire even while he was satisfied.
General Yuan only thought that Qi Xiuyuan wanted to help the little prince ascend the throne just like him, so he just cut to the chase with a few simple reminiscences. At the same time, they must find the two little princes as soon as possible. After all, a country cannot live without a king.
Qi Xiuyuan was silent for a moment before agreeing, but he hoped to join forces with General Yuan to enter the city and rescue the family members of the generals first.
Qi Xiuyuan was worried, and said: "Don't be afraid of the general's jokes, Xiuyuan's eldest son is only two years old this year, and I haven't seen him since he was born..."
General Yuan thought of his old mother, wife and grandchildren trapped in Lin'an City, his eyes turned red, he patted Qi Xiuyuan's shoulder empathetically, and said, "Okay, but there are a few people I can get here..."
General Yuan is a bit hard to say, he is far more powerful than Qi Xiu, has been in business longer than him, and has more and better manpower than him, but most of his manpower has been sent out to find the two princes, and few of them can be drawn out. There are few, so if we want to save people, I'm afraid that Qi Xiuyuan will have to send more people.
Qi Xiuyuan obviously didn't expect such a situation, feeling in his heart that General Yuan was indeed dedicated to the outside world, so he could only recruit as many people as possible to sneak into Lin'an City quietly.
Fortunately, Fan Zijin was still inside, and the people who ran them before were still lurking in the city. After sending people into the city, they waited for the other kings who worked hard, and at the same time they waited for news from the city.
And the second prince moved very quickly, invited Mrs. Shen and Qi Feng to the tower the next day, and asked General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan to go to the city alone to have an audience.
Both of them are unwilling to recognize the second prince as the emperor, so how can they talk about seeing each other?
Not to mention that they couldn't get out after entering alone, so General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan just looked at the people on the tower with red eyes without saying a word.
The envoys of the second prince grabbed Mrs. Shen and Qi Feng and threatened them for a long time. Seeing that the two were completely indifferent, they became angry and angry for a while, but they didn't dare to push them down or cut them off, so they could only turn around and let them go. Report to the Second Prince.
And Shen Mu and Rong Xuan led their staffs to finally draft a call to action, listing the crimes of the second prince, saying that they followed the way of heaven to crusade against the second prince.
The second prince's response was simple and rude. Yuan Qi and the others asked people to retreat for twenty miles first, or they would each kill one of their family members until they retreated.
General Yuan's eyes were tearing apart, his heart was full of pain and hatred, but there was nothing he could do. When he saw his little grandson on the city wall the next day, he could only wave his hand and make people retreat twenty miles to camp. They all led troops to besiege the city.
This time the second prince didn't threaten them again, but two days later, after General Guo and King Qin's army also arrived, the second prince's envoys quietly left the city and entered the camps of the generals.
Including General Yuan and Qi Xiuyuan.
Qi Xiuyuan watched the envoy's back disappear, and then let out a sigh of relief. He turned around and walked to the small slope beside him. Standing on it, he asked, "Jinyu, how do you think General Yuan will choose?"
Rong Xuan lowered his head and thought for a while, "That position is too tempting. Although General Yuan devoted himself wholeheartedly to serving the country, he often disobeyed the late emperor's will. I couldn't grasp his thoughts. Besides, even if General Yuan didn't have that idea, his subordinates Not necessarily not."
"General Yuan cherishes his reputation very much," Qi Xiuyuan said pointedly, "If we can rescue the family members of Yuan's family and take action before him, do you think General Yuan will raise the flag to fight against us again?"
Rong Xuan frowned and thought for a while, General Yuan really cherished his reputation, valued his reputation more than his own life, if they were so kind, maybe it would really work.
"However, we are not completely sure. I don't know where Mr. Biao..."
"No," Qi Xiuyuan refused, "You can't involve Zijin in this matter, there are not enough manpower." He thought for a while, and said, "Order Baili, let him come here immediately, the envoy has just arrived, we can delay it for three days In about three days, the hostages must be rescued."
"Where is the lady and the young master..."
"With Ah Ling here, Baili is good at concealment and killing, and Ah Ling is good at defending. With her there, Baili is dispensable."
Rong Xuan responded immediately, and Fei Ge sent a letter to Baili to come immediately.
But at this time, General Yuan who also sent Shi Chen away seemed to be five years old, Yuan Zhao stepped in quickly and shouted: "Father."
General Yuan said wearily: "The two princes are dead, at the hands of the Xixia people, and the other princes in Lin'an City are all... the entire Great Zhou, now only the second prince is left."
Yuan Zhao was silent for a moment, then said: "Father, the Guo family also has other clans. The late emperor was not the son of Emperor Gong, but his nephew."
General Yuan cheered up a little.
Yuan Zhao lowered his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Father, the most urgent task now is to rescue grandmother and mother, otherwise the second prince has hostages in his hands, and we will not be able to attack at all."
General Yuan nodded slightly, "Bring everyone back, find a way to sneak into the city, and we must rescue them."
Yuan Zhao felt a little anxious in his heart, "It will take two or three days for our men to rush back, and we are afraid of making mistakes under the exhausted army. Father, why don't you ask General Qi for help, isn't his men already in the city? Grandma is getting old, I'm afraid she won't be able to wait too long."
General Yuan sighed, nodded and said, "I'll see General Qi tomorrow."
Because the upper echelons of each army already knew that all the princes were dead except the second prince, and even the eighth and tenth princes who escaped originally were found and killed by the Xixia people, so everyone's hearts were fluttering and they were ready to move.
