Chapter 380: Leaving
The information that Li Qianchen can get can naturally be obtained by others.
In addition to the 20,000 troops in the military camp in the eastern suburbs of the capital, the remaining troops were the 2,000 imperial guards.
Although he is capable of fighting with the troops waiting outside the city, he will suffer losses in any fight.
The nearest garrison in the capital was a bit far away, so it was difficult to summon them at the moment.
When Changsun Han was there, the people he trusted were all people he trusted.
Prince Ning had no military power, but only a few thousand personal guards who were highly skilled in martial arts, and each prince had a share.
The remaining military power, apart from the Wei family and a few other veteran generals, is dominated by Jiang Yuan's men.
Dajin has a vast area and a large population.
These days, except for some officers and soldiers of high rank who have been staying in the military camp, most of them are ordinary people who have been forcibly recruited.
Jiang Yuan recruited people while fighting the war, and recruited many people based on the Wei family army.
In addition to the Wei family army, his troops expanded to more than 80,000 people.
This number is not large compared to other soldiers, but it is by no means small.
The order left by the late emperor was to let Jiang Yuan release a group of his people after the northwest became peaceful.
The imperial court could not afford to support them. There was no war, and it would cost money to support them.
Jiang Yuan naturally obeyed the imperial edict, but he himself could not afford to support so many people.
But now the northwest has not yet been planned, and most of those people still stay in the northwest to intimidate the barbarians.
Although he is far away in the northwest, he cannot ignore the people in his hands.
The crown princess has not yet held her enthronement ceremony, and is not yet an emperor in name only. In addition, the funeral of the late emperor has not yet been settled. It is a very stressful time and she cannot take care of many aspects.
For example, here in Jiangyuan.
In today's situation, it seems that Chang Sun's title has not yet calmed down.
Regarding this young future empress, Jiang Yuan could not deny his doubts.
He sneaked into the military camp in order to one day redress his family's grievances.
It is still unknown how long it will take for the empress to fully control the court. Moreover, he has not yet found the person who framed the Su family. It is said that the case is hidden in the palace, and Jiang Yuan has not seen the case so far.
Jiang Yuan was worried about the current situation.
The empress is too weak to support everything, and we don't know what the future of the imperial court will be like.
Jiang Yuan, who returned from the palace, looked at the flickering lights in front of his desk and thought about all this quietly. His road to revenge was too far.
"General, there is an old man outside the house asking to see you, saying he is your old friend, General." A servant from the mansion suddenly came over and said.
Jiang Yuan turned his head and thought for a moment, old friend.
He doesn't have many old friends.
Thinking that he had just returned from the palace, perhaps Eunuch Zhong, who was waiting for the Crown Princess, was looking for him.
Jiang Yuan had a somewhat good relationship with Eunuch Zhong when he was a child, and Eunuch Zhong also knew about the grievances of the Su family.
Jiang Yuan didn't think much and asked his men to bring the old man in.
The old man entered the room and took off his hat. Only then did Jiang Yuan realize that the person in front of him was not Zhong Da at all, but Wu Pu, whom he had not seen for a long time.
"Huai'er. You've grown so big..." Wu Pu's old voice was mixed with a long sigh.
"Why are you here?" Jiang Yuan said in a cold voice.
His adoptive father, whom he had not seen for many years, is now the lackey of the barbarians.
All this was unacceptable to Jiang Yuan.
"Yuan'er, I'm here for you. The Jin Dynasty was weak and incompetent and allowed a woman to become the emperor. Do you want to serve a woman? Are you hoping that this woman can redress the grievances of the Jiang family for you?"
Jiang Yuan looked at the person in front of him coldly and interrupted him, "Although the Jin Dynasty negotiated peace with the Hu people, generations of ancestors of my Su family and countless soldiers who died on the battlefield are still looking at me in the sky! Wu Pu, I am today
If you don’t move, you are remembering your kindness for saving me back then. If you say this again, don’t blame me for being rude..."
Hearing Jiang Yuan's threatening words, Wu Pu not only did not get angry, but instead smiled, comforting Jiang Yuan like a gentle elder.
"Huai'er, I know you have been thinking about avenging the Su family, and you are still looking for the person who framed the Su family. But have you ever thought that you don't have to look for enemies everywhere? The person who harmed the Su family is actually the eldest grandson.
Yes! Why do you have to sacrifice your life for your enemy! Your father and I..."
"That's enough!" Jiang Yuan interrupted Wu Pu with an angry roar.
"Don't mention my father! Don't call me by my name either! You can call me that because you have watched me grow up as a foster father, not as a lackey of the barbarians! I was raised by the Su family.
I know better than you what my father will do. Don't challenge my patience again..." Jiang Yuan clenched his fists and said.
No matter Jiang Yuan or Su Huai, no matter who he is, he will never surrender to the Hu people.
"Huai'er, one day, you will understand my painstaking efforts..." Wu Pu still said with a smile, put on his hat, turned and left.
Jiang Yuan ordered the people below with deep eyes, "If he comes down again, just call him out!"
The servants gingerly accepted the order and left the courtyard.
The two broke up unhappy, and Jiang Yuan would not send him out.
After leaving Su's house, Wu Pu got into an ordinary carriage on the street.
"How?" Yu Huayi's leisurely voice sounded in the carriage.
"Your Highness, he is unwilling." Wu Pu said respectfully, even showing humility in front of the Great Khan.
"Don't worry, this drama is going on for a long time, and the days are long..."
Yu Huayi's tone was neither urgent nor slow, with a hint of arrogance in her indifference.
"Let's go, it's time to go to the next place."
The carriage drove forward slowly, taking the two of them to an unknown destination.
-
The cotton quilts sent by Pingling arrived. Yuntao picked a few and stuffed them into the space, and sent the rest to Princess Guangyang's mansion.
The people at the Princess Mansion thanked her and said they would reply after Chang Sun Man came back.
Gaomen aristocratic families have a lot of Zhuangzi in their hands. Except for things that cannot be produced locally, most of them are produced in their own Zhuangzi.
The situation in Beijing is a bit tense, but overall prices have not changed.
The Yun family had only come to the capital in recent years and were not as strong as other high-ranking sects. Yuntao could only ask his servants to buy more.
As the New Year is approaching, every household has to buy things, so the news at Princess Mansion is nothing unusual.
There were more people coming and going, and there were more places to check the accounts. Yuntao handed all these over to his subordinates.
She often stayed alone in her room, unraveling the original plot.
Until Zhong Da came to visit.
Zhong Da came here to deliver a message for his eldest grandson.
Meeting old friends, she was more happy than sad. Yuntao happily asked the people below to pour tea for Zhong Da.
"Grandpa Zhong, drink this tea. I brought it from Li'an this year. I wanted to send you some, but I couldn't find the chance. Now that I'm here, you can take a jar with you." Yun said.
Tao said happily.
Zhong Da smiled, with a bit of bitterness on his face, "Princess, I'm here to send you a message on behalf of the Crown Princess."
