Xiao Heng bowed solemnly to Cui Daru and said, "Please give me some advice, sir."
Cui Daru's smile deepened.
Although he agreed to Su's invitation to assist Xiao Heng, to be honest, he was worried. After all, he was the leader of the Cui family who wanted to be promoted to the cabinet. Moreover, there is a kind of person in this world who would wish you dead when you go against him, but if you turn from evil to good, he would think that you are not tough enough and that you are fickle and would be on guard against you.
This is also the reason why many strategists would rather stick to one path until the end - changing the path may not necessarily work.
But now, Cui Daru has put aside this worry in his heart.
Since he came to Yunnan, he had been watching from the sidelines and could see that Xiao Heng was a man of great ambition and aspirations, but also broad-minded - he could still use the Chu family and use them with confidence.
Moreover, when he came to Zhaotong, he clearly had a way - the principal of Dongshan Academy was the prince's loyal descendant. As long as he opened his mouth, the principal would do his best to protect him.
But he was able to figure out how to forge his identity and rely on Chu Yongcheng to avoid the city-wide search.
Such a person is capable and compassionate. Who would not want to assist him
Cui Daru was a little hot after a busy night. He fanned himself with a feather fan and said, "Your Highness, you should take this opportunity to correct social norms! You are the crown prince, and you should be in charge of Yunnan and completely take over the military and political affairs of Yunnan. Otherwise, the chaos in Zhaotong will only happen again and again."
Just as Cui Daru said, Yunnan was originally a group of loose sand, and the army was full of Cheng Guogong's old subordinates. Politically, the attitude of the Governor of Yunnan has always been ambiguous.
We cannot allow this situation to continue and must completely take power into our own hands.
The tactic of killing a chicken to scare the monkey that Xiao Heng had used before was very good, but now it seems that the chaos in Yunnan cannot be suppressed by just one hundred and thirty heads.
In this case, use more blood to wake those people up.
Xiao Heng stood up in awe and saluted Cui Daru again: "Please teach me, sir!"
Very good, Cui Daru was even more satisfied. He had a noble status, but he could bend and stretch, could be cruel but could endure. He was born to be a great man.
In the end, the Cui family's turmoil actually helped him to find a better path. At such an old age, the last disciple he accepted in his life turned out to be the emperor's grandson, and such a smart and decisive grandson of the emperor. It was really a joy in life!
Cui Daru smiled and said, "Your Highness, as long as Miss Su brings Lord Wei back, we can set off."
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Going to Kunming?"
"Yes, let's go to Kunming!" The provincial government is in Kunming, the governor is in Kunming, so they went to Kunming and washed away the humiliation they had suffered along the way!
Xiao Heng smiled slowly.
There was a knock on the door. Xiao Heng and Cui Daru stopped talking and called in. Su Rong came in and bowed to Xiao Heng. He said, "The assassins who wanted to save Master Yuan last night have been caught. Four of them are still alive and are being held outside. Your Highness, how should we deal with them?"
Unlike the group of natives who blew up Chu Fengyuan, they knew at first glance that the tall and thin men were from the Great Zhou army. Their skills and methods were on the court's side, and they were here to save Lord Yuan, so they didn't need to interrogate them to know that they were Wei Desheng's men.
Seeing that Cui Daru was looking at him, Xiao Heng thought for a moment and said directly, "Keep them. No need to give them food or water, and don't let them sleep. Wait until they write a confession and identification document, then give them food."
Since we have to go to Kunming to subdue those evil spirits first, we cannot give them any handle that they can use to attack us.
He must do things in an impeccable manner.
These people are the best evidence and proof.
Su Rong responded, and without surprise, he went out to repeat the instructions, and then said to Qing Kun: "Go and ask if the county lady has returned."
Su Yao later found the marks left by Madam Yuan. Although there were only one or two, through the clues here, Su Yao finally determined where Madam Yuan and the others were. It was also because of this that Su Yao took the initiative to ask to take people to capture Wei Desheng.
This is actually very risky.
After all, Wei Desheng has been fighting on the battlefield all his life. If he is really pushed into a desperate situation, no one knows what crazy things he will do.
So Su Rong didn't agree at first, but what Su Yao wanted to do could not be stopped by others. In the end, he couldn't persuade Su Yao, so he had to agree to let her take people with her.
It was already dawn and he was becoming more and more worried.
Qing Kun loudly accepted the order and turned to leave. Sanjiu, with a look of joy on his face, ran in and reported: "Your Highness! Your Highness! The county lady is back!"
Su Rong breathed a sigh of relief and walked out quickly.
Xiao Heng also came out with Cui Daru in the room. Seeing Su Rong's hurried back, Cui Daru couldn't help but laugh: "In my opinion, Master, there is really no need to worry. The county lady has her own ideas. Since she wants to go, she will definitely be able to get things done."
Xiao Heng smiled and shook his head, then quickened his pace and walked down the stairs, and soon he disappeared.
Yes, she is so capable, so naturally nothing will happen to her.
But everyone knows the truth, however, there is also a saying that goes, "Care too much and you will be confused."
When it comes to her, how can I use those principles to reassure myself
When he arrived at the Moon Gate, he saw Su Rong with his back to him, whispering in a serious tone: "Too risky, you actually brought people to stop him! You know he only brought a team of guards with him? What if they are fully prepared?!"
He didn't expect Su Yao to be so bold. He brought hundreds of people and went directly to the west gate to block Wei Desheng's retreat. Wei Desheng had more than a thousand people on his side!
She is so brave!
Su Yao smiled like a little fox. "Anyone would be so frightened by so many explosives that they would not be able to think rationally. Wei Desheng doesn't know how many explosives we have. If something happens, his base camp is not here. His first reaction will definitely be to run for his life, and he will definitely run in the opposite direction. Therefore, I only left half of the people in the front yard just in case, and took the others to the west. I also brought archers with me. Even if he brought more people, how many people would he be able to use in a panic? Brother, you are too nervous."
This girl! Su Rong couldn't help but glare at her. He used to think that his sister was smart and had her own advantages, but now he would rather she wasn't so smart. She really didn't know what other people were worried about.
The brother and sister stared at each other, and Xiao Heng couldn't help but chuckle as they watched.
Su Rong turned around, and Su Yao also looked at Xiao Heng, blinked, and met Xiao Heng's gentle smile. For some reason, he quickly looked away.
