However, Vice General Wen left without looking back and went straight to Emperor Mingwen to confess. When he arrived at the door, he was stopped by Eunuch Mo: "Vice General Wen, the emperor is discussing important matters inside. Please go back."
"Eunuch, don't be in a hurry." Vice General Wen lifted up his clothes and knelt directly on the ground, his body straight.
Through the window, Emperor Mingwen glanced at Vice Admiral Wen, frowned and looked at Chu Yunning: "Are you soft-hearted?"
Chu Yunning shook her head firmly; "No!"
It involves hundreds of thousands of lives and thousands of families. Chu Yunning has no way to forgive such a low-level mistake.
Loyalty and bravery return to loyalty and bravery, but at the same time they are also foolish!
There is no guarantee that such a soft-eared person will not do it again.
Emperor Mingwen looked at Chu Yunning in surprise. She was always different from others. If it were anyone else, she might have persuaded him to be more lenient.
"The emperor's softness and kindness to Vice General Wen is irresponsible to the soldiers of the three armies. The soldiers of the three armies are innocent, why should they pay for his stupidity? The greenhouses are supplying the frontline soldiers every day. Once successful, there will be at least 80% certainty that they will be able to succeed.
success."
Knowing this situation, you still dare to let Zhang Erzhu come to the greenhouse, damn it!
"If he really wants Zhang Erzhu to learn planting technology, he can tell him in private and I will never be angry if the technology is passed on to others."
What makes him angry is that Vice General Wen has no sense of defense at all. Such a person is not worthy of staying in the military camp and leading the soldiers.
Emperor Mingwen saw that she was angry, so he turned around and poured a cup of tea and handed it to her: "Quiet your anger, it's not worth getting so angry."
Chu Yunning took the tea and drank more than half of the cup before placing it on the table. He looked away from outside the room and turned to look at Emperor Mingwen: "Then what does the emperor plan to do with Vice General Wen?"
She knew that Emperor Mingwen cherished talents and it was difficult to find good generals, so she would definitely be reluctant to deal with Deputy General Wen. Emperor Mingwen said without hesitation: "Although Deputy General Wen is stupid, he is not a person who lives in shame. Otherwise, he would not be here."
Chu Yun rather believed half of this.
About two hours later, Emperor Mingwen met with Vice General Wen. As soon as he met Vice General Wen, he kowtowed to Emperor Mingwen: "I know that I deserve death, so I don't dare to pray for the emperor's forgiveness. I just ask the emperor to forgive me."
My elderly parents will work as cows or horses in their next life to repay the emperor."
Vice General Wen explained everything in detail about how he met Xiuxiu, and raised three fingers: "Your Majesty, everything the general said is true, and there is absolutely no lie."
Emperor Mingwen let out a long sigh.
"Please, Your Majesty!" Vice General Wen kowtowed heavily to Emperor Mingwen several times, and soon his forehead turned purple.
"Don't worry, I will help you." Emperor Mingwen waved his hand.
Vice General Wen was relieved when he saw this. Before leaving, he kowtowed three times to Emperor Mingwen: "General, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Looking at the back of Vice General Wen leaving, Emperor Mingwen was very angry. He kept a straight face and said nothing. Seeing this, Chu Yunning comforted him with a few words: "Your Majesty, leave this matter to me and I will handle it."
.”
"You have always been responsible for the greenhouse, and I listen to you."
Chu Yunning nodded when he heard this, calculated the time to find Xiuxiu, and asked Eunuch Mo to accompany her.
Xiuxiu waited in the camp for a long time, feeling a little uneasy. The curtain was raised, and Vice General Wen walked in with a dead look on his face. Xiuxiu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "General, has the emperor forgive us?"
"Excuse me?" Vice General Wen sneered, and the look in his eyes made Xiuxiu panic.
"The Emperor will naturally not forgive you." Chu Yunning came next. Behind him, Eunuch Mo was holding two glasses of wine. Looking at the two glasses of wine, Xiu Xiu's face turned pale and she took two steps back.
Vice General Wen's eyes moved slightly, but soon regained their composure. He reached for a glass and drank it in one gulp.
"General!" Xiu Xiu was shocked.
After drinking, Deputy General Wen quickly fell into coma. Xiu Xiu tentatively put her hand under the tip of Deputy General Wen's nose, and was immediately frightened and screamed.
"You really killed Lieutenant General Wen!" Xiu Xiu thought about many possibilities. She thought Emperor Ming Wen was just joking.
"It's not a pity for such a person to die!" Eunuch Mo snorted coldly. He walked towards Xiuxiu with the remaining glass of wine. Xiuxiu was so frightened that she backed away, but Chu Yunning pinched Xiuxiu's cheek.
Arm: "Xiuxiu, if you make a mistake, you should be punished. It's rare that Deputy Wen will be obsessed with you, so just accompany him on the road."
Xiuxiu shook her head wildly: "No, no, Chu Shanggong, didn't you say that I can atone for my sins? I can cooperate with you."
Chu Yunning raised her eyebrows and was too lazy to pay attention to her. He just reached out and pinched her chin. As soon as he passed the wine glass forward, Xiuxiu immediately shouted: "Someone will come to check whether the vegetables in the greenhouse are poisoned at midnight tonight."
"What else?"
"I can tell that the other person's accent is not from Dongling. Her accent is very similar to yours. I don't know the rest. Chu Shang Palace, I was also held hostage. Please forgive me.
"Xiuxiu was so frightened that she collapsed and shouted.
Chu Yunning grabbed Xiu Xiu's chin with both hands and poured the wine down Xiu Xiu's throat without hesitation. Xiu Xiu's eyes widened in disbelief.
"In the next life, don't lie to others, let alone live up to someone who is sincere to you." As soon as Chu Yunning let go, black blood overflowed from the corner of Xiuxiu's mouth, and she fell to the ground in pain, her eyes widening unwillingly. After only a moment, the next generation
It's already dead.
"Bah! It's not a pity for such a person to die." Eunuch Mo wanted to slap her twice, but he didn't regret it when he was about to die: "It's a pity for Lieutenant General Wen."
Chu Yunning said: "Send both of them to the mass grave. As for Xiuxiu, don't pay attention. Vice General Wen, put a hundred taels of silver into his arms."
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunuch Mo was startled suddenly and couldn't believe his ears: "Chu Shanggong means that Vice General Wen is still alive?"
Only then did he realize that there was no blood coming from the corners of Vice Admiral Wen's mouth, unlike Xiu Xiu.
"Well, now he has died once. I have nothing to do with keeping him alive. I just care about his elderly parents."
Chu Yunning originally didn't want to let Lieutenant General Wen go, but when she went to search for Lieutenant General Wen's tent, she found that he was very economical and a filial son. He kept every bit of it and sent it to his parents at home. Father Wen and Mother Wen were just such a son.
, is also illiterate, and can only ask people to send him some dried vegetables at home. Although they are not valuable, they are the best that the family can provide.
"The military camp can't keep him. From now on, there will be no deputy general Wen in the military camp!" Chu Yunning knew he could hear it.
The medicine she gave Lieutenant General Wen was just an ordinary psychedelic drug, which was still preserved in her subconscious mind.
What was given to Xiuxiu was deadly poison.
Eunuch Mo immediately found someone to deal with the two of them, and explained some precautions. Then Eunuch Mo found Chu Yunning: "How did Chu Shanggong know that Vice General Wen would definitely drink the non-poisonous cup?"
What should I do if I drink something poisonous?
Chu Yunning squinted at Eunuch Mo: "Vice General Wen is left-handed and likes cyan. I'm just taking a gamble. If he makes the wrong choice, even God won't be able to forgive him!"
Eunuch Mo suddenly realized: "So that's it. Chu Shanggong is superior in skills and I admire him!"
When Eunuch Mo told Emperor Mingwen about this, a smile bloomed on the corner of Emperor Mingwen's mouth: "I was indeed right about Aning."
"Yes, Chu Shang Palace has a clear distinction between public and private affairs, and has no affection for children at all. This slave is so impressed that he fell to the ground with admiration!" Eunuch Mo said.
The love between children is long... The smile on Emperor Mingwen's face faded a little.
"Uncle Huang!"
Just as he was thinking about it, Beibei's Nuonuo voice came into his ears. A moment later, Beibei came running all the way, holding Emperor Mingwen's hand: "Uncle Huang, mother has prepared some delicious food, let's go and have a look."
Look."
"That's right." Emperor Mingwen reached out and touched Beibei's little head: "Why are you so sweaty from running away? Just send a guard to tell me."
Bei Bei smiled with bright eyes: "Mom said that when inviting people to dinner, you should be sincere, otherwise it is not intentional."
"Your mother is always different from others." Emperor Mingwen's mood suddenly became better. He stood up and let Beibei pull him. The two of them, one big and one small, walked out. Beibei raised his head: "Uncle Huang, I know.
You like my mother."
The unreasonable sentence made Emperor Mingwen stunned for a moment, and he cried and laughed and had to know how to explain it.
"Uncle Huang, I like you too. I know you will be good to your mother, right?" Beibei's expression was rare and serious.
Emperor Mingwen suddenly bent down and stared at Beibei seriously: "Who taught you these words?"
"No one taught me, I just know how to see and feel." Beibei said.
Emperor Mingwen patted his little shoulder: "Some things cannot be forced. You are still young. This is an adult's business. Don't worry about it. I can promise you that I will never let anyone bully your mother."
Beibei shook his head and grinned: "Okay!"
As the two of them were walking on the path, Emperor Mingwen suddenly asked, "Beibei, do you think it would be good to be the emperor?"
"Emperor?" Beibei tilted his head and thought for a while. He had never thought about this question before. He just asked blankly, "Why should I be the emperor?"
"I'm asking what if."
"Being the emperor is very hard. The emperor's grandmother often said that it was too hard for the emperor. There were endless memorials to review every day, and there were many, many people begging to see him, so he had no free time at all." Beibei said.
Emperor Mingwen cleared his throat: "But if you become the emperor, you can protect the people you want to protect. With military power in your hands, no one will dare to bully your mother anymore. Anyone who sees your mother must be respectful."
These words directly touched Beibei's heart, and he immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "If I can protect my mother, of course I am willing to be the emperor."
His mother had sacrificed so much for him, Beibei thought, just work harder.
Emperor Mingwen smiled with satisfaction and said, "Can we not tell my mother about the chat between the two of us today?"
In Beibei's doubtful eyes, Emperor Mingwen added: "Because we are all men, there are little secrets between men."
"Okay!" Beibei nodded heavily and said he would not tell Chu Yunning.
Soon the two of them arrived in the free greenhouse. Chu Yunning had already set up the stove, added firewood, and was simmering fish heads and stewing tofu inside.
Looking at the white and tender tofu cubes, Emperor Mingwen was a little surprised: "What is this?"
"This is tofu. It is made from sun-brown beans. It is ground into powder and boiled." Chu Yunning omitted the complicated process. Beans are a food that can be stored for a long time. You can eat fresh ones if you can't finish them all.
Once dried, it is easy to store.
You can also make some yuba, which tastes very good.
Emperor Mingwen was dubious and tasted a small piece. It was smooth and tender in the mouth and had a strong bean flavor.
"How?" This is also Chu Yunning's first time.
"It's very tasty, and the taste is very good." Emperor Mingwen praised it without hesitation. He looked at the hodgepodge in the pot and frowned slightly. It contained vegetables, fish, a few pieces of ribs, potatoes and tofu.
Chu Yunning asked Emperor Mingwen to sit down, handed him a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and started eating around the stove.
Beibei was very well-behaved and didn't say a word. Chu Yunning was afraid that he would get burned, so he ate whatever was given to him. He even picked the thorns himself.
When Emperor Mingwen saw this, he also sat down. After taking a bite, he found that everything was delicious and tasted good. It was much better than expected.
Halfway through eating, Chu Yunning started to stick a few white flour buns on the edge of the pot, covered the pot again and simmered.
"What is this?" Emperor Mingwen first looked at her as if he had discovered a treasure.
"I saw some aunts doing this in the countryside, so I'll give it a try. If the emperor doesn't mind, you can try it." Chu Yunning prepared the white-flour steamed buns. The bottom layer has been soaked with soup, and it looks like a crispy rice cake.
fragrant.
So he handed the steamed buns to Emperor Mingwen.
Emperor Mingwen broke it into half and handed it to Beibei: "It's time for you to grow. Eat more."
"good!"
The three of them are not a family of three, but in the eyes of outsiders they look like a family of three. After eating and drinking, Chu Yunning said to Beibei: "Beibei, please sleep in the room tonight. No matter what sound you hear, you are not allowed to sleep."
Come out, you know?"
"Okay!" Beibei nodded and said to Emperor Mingwen: "Uncle Huang must protect my mother's safety."
Emperor Mingwen nodded: "Don't worry, the emperor will definitely know how to do it."
It was just getting dark when they left the greenhouse. Chu Yunning sent Beibei back to the house and sent a few people to guard the door.
Then he and Emperor Mingwen sat in the other room playing chess, waiting for someone to come to the door. Emperor Mingwen held the black piece in his hand, and occasionally thought hard. Chu Yunning had just learned to play Go, but he had not figured out the trick yet. It did not belong to Emperor Mingwen at all.
opponent.
But Emperor Mingwen was still unwilling to dissuade her enthusiasm, so he could only think about how to guide her so that she would not be too embarrassed if he won.
After a game of chess, there was indeed a slight movement outside. Chu Yunning curled her lips and sneered: "Here we come."
"There's no rush for now, it's just a small fish." Emperor Mingwen dropped another piece: "After Huilu returned to Dongling, he gained support from some people. Emperor Dongling also wanted to deal with the prince of Nancheng, so we
No need to tolerate it anymore.”
Yunlan didn't dare to act rashly for a moment, and Emperor Mingwen had no scruples anymore. Chu Yunning held his chin with one hand: "In this case, why not fight?"
She supports war. It is better to have a quick and enjoyable war than to delay the war and waste people and money.
