When the two brothers Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang heard the news that Zhu Han had arrived, they were all extremely nervous. No one spoke to each other, and they all sat silently on their chairs.
The more silence there was, the more depressed they felt. In the end, both Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang couldn't bear it.
Zhu Han, the shadow of the famous tree, Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang were once his subordinates, plus his glorious record of winning every battle, who can't help but shudder when he hears it?
"Brother, why don't you leave His Royal Highness outside?"
Yu Tongjiang frowned and said to Yu Tongyuan: "He used to be our commander-in-chief, we..."
When they formed an alliance with Guo Huan, Zhao Yong and others, Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang just felt unfair in their hearts, so they chose to satisfy their selfish desires in order to gain greater power. Until their comrades were arrested, they still didn't think of pleading guilty and facing justice.
, but intends to resist.
It wasn't until Zhu Han appeared outside the door that they felt panic in their hearts...the panic caused by making a mistake.
Hearing Yu Tongjiang's words, Yu Tongyuan couldn't help but cover his head. How could he not know that this was not good? However, he really did not dare to see Zhu Han.
If Zhu Biao or Tang He came to lead troops to fight them, or if Zhu Han led troops to attack them, Yu Tongyuan would not be as entangled as now. The worst he could do was die, but he would still be a good man eighteen years later.
But now, Zhu Han only brought five people... It was no different from not bringing anyone with him. It really made Yu Tongyuan feel scared from the bottom of his heart.
There is nothing more heart-breaking than killing someone.
Yu Tongyuan thought for a while and then said: "Wait a little longer and see if he ambush us."
If Zhu Han has an ambush outside, they can ignore Zhu Han's kindness to them in the past: "If there is an ambush, we will fight him to the end. Eighteen years later we will be a good man again."
Want to fight Zhu Han?
Yu Tongjiang couldn't help but shuddered. They had no chance of winning: "Brother, let's stop. We plead guilty and plead guilty to the law, and beg His Royal Highness to protect our family. He will definitely agree. If we resist to the end, what will happen to our family?"
manage?"
"them?"
Yu Tongyuan's eyes were filled with fierceness, "We are a family, we are all prosperous and we are all devastated. If we die, can they live a good life?"
When telling his decision, Yu Tongyuan did not mention Zhu Han directly. As for Zhu Han's help... Yu Tongyuan felt that if Zhu Han really wanted to help them, they should be exempted from the blame.
Moreover, the sentinels who went outside to investigate reported that there were no other ships in the Yangtze River and canal except their warships.
No one was brought.
This was beyond Yu Tongyuan's expectation, and now he couldn't even find a reason to fight to the death.
Zhu Han is outside again, what can he do?
After thinking about it, Yu Tongyuan said: "Let's invite him in. If he can't save our lives, then we won't let him leave and hold him in our hands as a hostage. Presumably the prince and military commanders in Yingtian will not dare to let him go."
How about us."
If it were Zhu Yuanzhang, Yu Tongyuan felt that Zhu Yuanzhang might ignore Zhu Han to destroy him, but Zhu Biao, Li Shanchang, Xu Da and others would never dare to ignore Zhu Han's existence.
Hearing what his eldest brother said, Yu Tongjiang couldn't help but widen his eyes.
What?
Let Zhu Han be used as a hostage?
"Brother, you..."
Just as he was about to say how dare you do this, Yu Tongyuan directly interrupted what he was about to say: "If a man doesn't do it for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. If we two brothers follow him, there will be no credit but hard work, right? Why should Liao get all the benefits?"
Yongzhong and his brothers got it? This is not fair!"
Yu Tongyuan's words were not recognized by Yu Tongjiang. He felt that he had been taken care of enough by Zhu Han, but his current eldest brother made him feel strange.
It is said that a favor must be repaid, but now we have to put a knife on the neck of our benefactor. Is this something that a human being can do?
Yu Tongjiang wanted to say something, but Yu Tongyuan directly interrupted him: "Stop talking, just do it!"
After saying that, Yu Tongyuan strode out and came out of the camp to meet Zhu Han.
Yu Tongjiang followed behind with a troubled expression on his face.
Perhaps at this time he had been persuaded by Yu Tongyuan, and the heaven and the earth would destroy him if he did not do it for himself!
…
Because he was afraid of Zhu Han from the bottom of his heart and worried that he would be captured by Zhu Han when he went out to meet Zhu Han, Yu Tongyuan took all the soldiers around him with him when he went to meet Zhu Han.
The five hundred personal soldiers looked magnificent, and those who didn't know it thought he was going out of the city to fight.
"Your Royal Highness!"
When Yu Tongyuan saw Zhu Han, he acted as if nothing was wrong. He clasped his hands and greeted Zhu Han: "The general is leading the troops for training and failed to come out to greet him in time. I hope His Majesty the King of England will forgive me!"
Zhu Han laughed and scolded: "I thought you didn't dare to see me, but you kid...you're still on guard against me now!"
He took off the waist knife he was carrying, patted Yu Tongyuan's body, and then threw the knife to Yu Tongyuan: "My brothers and I were out to play, and I'm a little thirsty. I came here to ask you for a drink."
With that said, Zhu Han strode inside. When he passed by Yu Tongjiang, he saw the confusion on Yu Tongjiang's face. Zhu Han already knew it, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Lead the way!"
Then continue walking into the camp.
Zhu Han was in front, and the five veterans he brought behind were behind. Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang did not expect that Zhu Han would do such a trick. They looked at each other and then followed behind without saying a word.
Both of them had a very strange feeling. Why did their territory look like Zhu Han's?
This is too fucked up.
…
Walking into the camp and arriving at the commander's tent, Zhu Han took the position of the coach without hesitation. He looked at Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang who walked in, and said with a smile: "Why, don't you welcome me when I come?"
Yu Tongjiang said sarcastically: "No, you are not welcome."
"You're not welcome, why don't you bring me some food and drinks?"
Zhu Han waved his hand and said, "The good wine and food will be served first."
"..."
Are you here to cause trouble, or are you here to eat?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang originally thought that they would be scolded by Zhu Han, and then be dragged by him to plead guilty to the law, but now... Zhu Han doesn't want to do that at all.
Bring this up.
what happened?
What happened?
Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang were confused by Zhu Han. They could not figure out Zhu Han's routine, so they could only prepare the food and wine according to Zhu Han's request.
"This is so true."
Zhu Han looked at the clear wine in front of him and the sumptuous food and wine in front of the table, with a satisfied smile on his face. He knocked on the table and said, "I will have to follow this standard when I come to you in the future."
"..."
Do we have a future?
Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang were greatly refreshed, and they quickly said: "As ordered!"
However, there was always a knot in their hearts about the wrong things they had done. The more Zhu Han didn't mention it, the more Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang felt in their hearts. They didn't know what Zhu Han wanted to do.
Zhu Han didn't say anything, so he could only ask it himself.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Zhu Han and his servants ate happily, but Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang were a little bit the same, and they drank very unpleasantly.
Yu Tongjiang is better off. Because he is afraid of Zhu Han in his heart, he does not dare to speak openly. He is now in a resigned attitude. Because of the arrival of Zhu Han, Yu Tongjiang has lost the idea of resistance. No matter what Zhu Han gives him
He can accept any kind of punishment.
However, Yu Tongyuan didn't think so. He wanted to live, and live well.
The more Zhu Han didn't mention it, the more panicked he became. After waiting for a long time, he finally couldn't wait any longer. He put down the wine bowl and said to Zhu Han: "Your Highness, you..."
The courage he had just raised suddenly disappeared without a trace the moment he faced Zhu Han.
When he faced Zhu Han, he was full of fear: "You, do you think the food is delicious?"
"good."
Zhu Han looked at Yu Tongyuan with his eyes. Yu Tongyuan was so scared that he lowered his head and did not dare to look at him: "Yu Tongyuan, don't you have nothing to say to me?"
Upon hearing Zhu Han's inquiry, Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang both put down Kuai Zi. At this time, they already knew what Zhu Han was going to say next.
"I have!"
Yu Tongyuan did not dare to let Zhu Han speak out. He was afraid that he would not have a chance to speak. Yu Tongyuan, who felt that he was about to face death, finally had the courage to face Zhu Han directly. He looked up at Zhu Han and said to him: "Your Highness, I
I think you are unfair, you, you are partial."
"oh?"
Zhu Han became interested and asked Yu Tongyuan to talk about his problems. Instead, he complained: "Where is the injustice? Tell me."
"Your Highness, my brother and I, like Liao Yongzhong and others, have all surrendered to you. You have led us to fight in the north and south in these years. But why can Liao Yongzhong and the others go to fight overseas, but I have to continue to fight here?
Guarding the Yangtze River and the Canal here? I can’t use it in such a big place.”
Yu Tongyuan looked at Zhu Han, "I don't accept that you favor the Liao brothers! In the past, you just let him go. But this time His Majesty is changing overseas generals, and you don't want us brothers. Why?"
"..."
Yu Tongjiang listened blankly to Yu Tongyuan's complaints about Zhu Han, feeling a little incredible.
Is this the reason?
The canal and the Yangtze River are barriers to protect Yingtian. By putting the two brothers in this position, doesn't Zhu Han trust them more?
Don't use such lame excuses.
Zhu Han also found it funny. After seeing Yu Tongyuan finish speaking, he looked at Yu Tongjiang: "You think so too?"
"no no."
After all, Yu Tongjiang was younger. After hearing Zhu Han's inquiry, he directly admitted his mistake: "Your Highness, I was wrong. You can kill or behead him at will. I, Yu Tongjiang, failed to take care of myself and embarrassed the King of England."
"..."
Yu Tongyuan didn't expect that his brother would rebel. Did he give in so quickly?
Zhu Han continued to look at Yu Tongyuan: "What else do you have to say?"
"me……"
Yu Tongyuan didn't know what to say. The excuse he just made was bullshit, and Zhu Han didn't take it seriously at all.
I kept looking for excuses, but found that there were no excuses left.
Yu Tongyuan had no choice but to hold his neck and said: "Your Highness, I was wrong, I admit it! But can you please be accommodating and let me go for the sake of my contribution to the Ming Dynasty?"
"Let you go? How to let you go? Take your title back and exile you overseas? Or should you hand over the stolen money and I'll just pretend that this never happened?"
"Just pretend it never happened."
Yu Tongyuan finally lowered his head and whispered to Zhu Han: "Your Highness, please give me a chance. I will never do it again in the future."
"Do you think that's possible?"
Zhu Han looked at Yu Tongyuan, "You have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty has given you a title and let you take charge of the Yangtze River Navy. Is this a reward from the Ming Dynasty for your merits? But now you have committed a crime, but you have to use your own merits.
If you go to make up for your sins, your Yu Tongyuan’s contribution will still go to heaven, right?”
"..."
"Don't say you deserve this, you don't deserve anything!"
Zhu Han did not give Yu Tongyuan a chance to continue explaining, and said to him: "Yu Tongyuan, do you plead guilty or not?"
"I...I admit it!"
After being scolded by Zhu Han, Yu Tongyuan lost all his arrogance and lowered his head to show that he would let him be dealt with.
However, in his lowered eyes, there was a strong reluctance, and he was unwilling to fail like this.
"You have to admit when you are wrong, stand upright when you are beaten, and don't behave like children who love each other!"
Zhu Han looked at Yu Tongyuan, sighed and said: "I have discussed with the prince and Tang He that this case will only pursue the criminals and will not affect my family. I will stay in the military camp for a few days. You and your family can have a good time these days.
Well, just come back in seven days, I'll wait for you in the military camp."
When Yu Tongjiang heard Zhu Han said that his family should be spared, he felt extremely grateful. He knelt down and kowtowed with tears in his eyes: "Your Highness is merciful, and the crime will be taken on behalf of the family. I thank the King of England!"
Yu Tongyuan's eyes were also red, but he resisted the tears and kowtowed heavily to Zhu Han: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I thank you!"
Zhu Han no longer had any intention of continuing to drink. He put down the wine bowl and said, "Forget it, let's go rest and find me a place to live. I'll be living in the military camp these days."
"As you command!"
Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongjiang took orders to find a tent for Zhu Han to rest. However, after they asked Zhu Han to rest, they did not go home immediately, but continued to discuss countermeasures in the military camp.
The first thing Yu Tongyuan did was to call his cronies over. When Yu Tongjiang saw his elder brother's actions, he immediately realized that something was wrong. He directly grabbed Yu Tongyuan's arm and asked, "Brother, what do you want to do?"
"What do I want to do? What can I do? Save my life!"
Yu Tongyuan clenched his fists and said to Yu Tongjiang: "Zhu Han refuses to let us go, do we have to sit back and wait for death? Since he is unkind, then don't blame me for being unjust!"
Yu Tongjiang's heart suddenly tightened, and he scolded seriously: "Brother, don't be stubborn!"
"What is there to be stubborn about? How many people does Zhu Han have? What are we afraid of him doing?"
Yu Tongyuan looked at his brother and said to him: "Don't worry, he is our commander-in-chief. I will not do anything to him. As long as we can be safe overseas, I will let him come back. I am not a heinous person, I just want to Is there anything wrong with letting yourself and your family live the rest of your life in peace?"
"..."
That's right, but Yu Tongjiang doesn't agree with this approach.
"Brother, don't be stupid, we can't defeat the King of England."
Yu Tongjiang grabbed Yu Tongyuan's arm, shook his head and said: "He dares to bring five people to come to us. The King of England does not regard us as opponents at all!"
