Chapter 840: Domineering, almost rebellious



Chapter 840: Domineering, almost rebellious

There were 30,000 soldiers and horses who attacked the Jinwuwei Army Camp at night. These 30,000 soldiers were the frontier troops stationed at the Southern Border. They were also known for their bravery in the East.

When the people on the camp learned that the soldiers and horses that attacked at night were led by General Yang, they thought that Prince Xiao would not be able to return to the capital with them tomorrow, but the battle was over before dawn, and there was even news from the front that Prince Xiao captured General Yang alive.

“I heard that Xiao Wangye captured General Yang alive. Is this true?” There was a war outside, how could all civil and military officials sleep in the barracks? As soon as they heard the news, everyone ran to ask Prime Minister You.

“I’m in the military camp just like you, how could I know what you don’t know?” Prime Minister You stroked his beard with an inscrutable look on his face.

Although Prince Xiao’s Jinwuwei Army was like an iron bucket, spies can’t get in, but under hundreds of thousands of people, he can find one or two people who can take action. He can’t get important news, but some trivial news can still be asked.

He does know some news that others don’t know, but even if he knows some news, he can’t say it.

“Prime Minister You, please don’t play with us. We all know that you are well-informed, so tell us quickly.” The officials who were familiar with Prime Minister You know he has the ability, so they don’t believe his words.

“Yes, Prime Minister You, tell us if it is true?” Hearing this, several other officials followed suit, but Prime Minister You firmly shook his head: “We will know about this when Xiao Wangye comes back.”

“Will Xiao Wangye hand over General Yang?” A short official asked in a low voice.

If Prince Xiao hand over General Yang, this matter will involve a lot.

“Of course, Xiao Wangye is not afraid of going to war with the court.” Prince Xiao has already started a war with the court.

“Isn’t General Yang…” The man was startled, but he knew what to say and what not to say, and the words that followed were automatically silenced.

Prime Minister You didn’t speak, just glanced at the other party and closed his eyes silently.

Success and defeat, sometimes the choice was more important than ability. General Yang was not a person without ability, but he chose the wrong master, the emperor lost, and General Yang naturally did not end well.

Not only Prime Minister You understood this point, but also the ministers present. Otherwise, they would not have come to ask Prince Xiao to go back to preside over the overall situation and support Xiao Tianyao.

At daybreak, Xiao Tianyao returned to the camp with 10,000 captives, led by General Yang, whom the minister was talking about. However, Xiao Tianyao did not embarrass General Yang, nor did he treat General Yang as an ordinary prisoner. Xiao Tianyao only asked people to disarm General Yang and sent people to follow him.

“Congratulations to Xiao Wangye’s triumphant return.” The officials headed by Prime Minister You came out to welcome Prince Xiao when they heard the news.

Lin Chujiu also heard the news, but she didn’t come out. She silently packed her things in the camp and prepared to return to the capital.

“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao responded lightly. Although there was no blood on his body, he exuded a strong bloody smell. Prime Minister You usually see blood, but he was shocked when he smelled the bloody smell on Xiao Tianyao’s body.

With such a strong smell of blood, how many people have to be killed, and how much blood has been stained?

The people beside Prime Minister You became more and more frightened as they thought about it, and they didn’t dare to look at General Yang. They respectfully said: “Xiao Wangye must have been exhausted, leading the troops to battle last night. Why don’t you go back to the capital after resting for one more day?”

“No, we will leave in an hour, and it happens that General Yang will also return to the capital together.” Xiao Tianyao took the initiative to mention the existence of General Yang.

Except that he didn’t talk about rebellion, what he did was no different from rebellion. He was not afraid of going to war with the imperial court’s troops.

The Emperor was unconscious and had lost his sovereignty. Now he can say anything.

“General Yang? Could it be that the person who attacked last night was General Yang? This, this…” Prime Minister You raised his head in shock, and looked at General Yang beside Xiao Tianyao in disbelief: “General Yang, how could you do that? What happened?”

“What did I do? I was ordered to go to the capital to escort Prince Qin, but you’re saying I did something wrong?” General Yang personally led the troops to the capital after receiving the emperor’s news, which showed that he was the emperor’s confidant.

Seeing Prime Minister You and the people beside him talking for Xiao Tianyao, General Yang was furious and said mockingly: “Even if I did something wrong, I am better than your group of duplicitous officials and thieves. At least I will not betray the Emperor, and I will not betray my master for glory. ” The Emperor was not dead yet, but they were eager to welcome Prince Xiao back to the capital. What were they to question him?

“You, you insulted the imperial court official in public, what do you think you are doing?” Prime Minister You pointed at General Yang with an angry face.

*Pa* General Yang slapped off Prime Minister You’s hand unceremoniously: “Don’t point at this general, be careful that this general chops off your hand.”

“You, you are so bold!” Prime Minister Right blushed, and his hands were trembling: “General Yang, you are out of your mind. You don’t know the situation in the capital, so don’t act rashly. The Emperor is seriously ill and comatose, Xiao Wangye will serve as the regent. At this time, do you think you are serving the country and the people? No, you are adding chaos instead, what is your intention?”

“You people conspired with Xiao Wangye to assassinate the Emperor while he is unconscious. What face do you have to say that I have intentions?” General Yang naturally knew that the current situation was not good for the Emperor. If he was smart, he would turn to serve Prince Xiao, but he was unwilling to do so.

He belonged to the Emperor, and the glory of the Yang family was given by the emperor. If it weren’t for the current emperor, their Yang family would have been extinct long ago. Anyone would betray the emperor, but he would not.

“General Yang, you misunderstood Xiao Wangye. The Emperor was unconscious because of his brain disease. Xiao Wangye has been looking for a famous doctor to treat the Emperor these days.” Prime Minister You said sadly while looking at General Yang’s eyes as if he can’t see the child who was not sensible.

“Hmph, I don’t believe a single word you say.” General Yang snorted coldly, turned his face away, and made it clear that he didn’t want to say more.

“Wangye…” Seeing this, Prime Minister You looked at Xiao Tianyao in embarrassment.

They don’t understand why Prince Xiao would capture General Yang alive.

For a loyal confidant of the Emperor like General Yang, it would be easier to kill him directly.

“Let’s go back to the capital together and let General Yang see clearly whether benwang has the intention to kill the Emperor.” He wanted the Emperor’s confidant to see that the emperor’s illness had nothing to do with him.

Now, he doesn’t want to bear the infamy of killing his brother and seizing the throne, let alone making wedding dresses for others.

“What Wangye said is right, actions speak louder than words. When General Yang enters the capital, he will naturally know the truth of the matter.” Prime Minister You were old and sophisticated. As soon as Xiao Tianyao opened his mouth, he guessed Xiao Tianyao’s intentions and said in cooperation.

Xiao Tianyao nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand, and said: “You all go, we will leave on time in an hour.”

After he finished saying those words, Xiao Tianyao strode towards the tent.
