Beiyan's battle report was delayed, and an atmosphere of unease finally shrouded Da Zhou's court.
The battle report that was placed in the dark compartment of the couch of the Empress Dowager Liu had always been there. It was not because the Empress Dowager Liu did not want to return the battle report, but Luo Zhiyi, under Luo Wei's instruction, tightened the access control of the palace gate. Now, Gao Zhu has no chance to enter the palace, and it is impossible to take away the battle report stamped with five groups of flames.
Luo Wei didn't seem to care about Beiyan's late battle report. He just complained that Shangdu's winter this year was the same as Beiyan's winter. It snowed every day, so he couldn't even get out of the house.
Luo Wei waited for Chang Ling's action, wondering if he had to do something else, his eyes finally fixed on Long Xiao, if he moved Long Xiao, could Chang Ling endure like this any longer
Long Xiao didn't know that his Sixth Emperor Uncle had already murdered him. The child simply felt that Sixth Emperor Uncle was a good man. He liked the feeling of being coaxed by Luo Wei all the time, and would come to Yijin Garden from time to time. Find Luo Wei, play snow on the green island, and enjoy it. Every time Luo Wei saw Long Xiao's smiling face in front of him, and listened to this child calling him one after another, Luo Wei's heart softened again. He felt that he couldn't do anything, and Long Xiao seemed innocent. .
Just when Luo Wei was swaying between soft-hearted and murderous intentions, Long Xiang's bad news reached Shangdu a day before Ning Fei.
Luo Wei looked at the sad letter that Xie Yu handed to him. He couldn't believe his eyes, and read the sad letter over and over again. This funeral letter was not written by his second brother Luo Ze, but was written by the personal bodyguard head Long Xiang brought to Nanzhao.
"How is this possible?" Xie Yu repeated in front of Luo Wei over and over again.
Long Xiang returned to Dazhou from Linshui Pass in Nanzhao a month ago, but when he was putting his horse outside Linshui Pass, when he rode on a wooden bridge, the wooden bridge suddenly broke, and Long Xiang fell into the road with his horse and his horse. In the deep lake, he was crushed under the water by his own horse, and when one of his right legs was struggling in the water, he was torn away from his body by the scared horse. When everyone rescued Long Xiang ashore, Long Xiang was in a coma and was dying. After the military doctor in the army rescued him urgently, Luo Zesui, who was at Linshuiguan, failed to report to Luo Ze in the future, so he followed the advice of the military doctor and sent Long Xiang back to Dazhou. This general also heard from the military doctor that if he wanted to save King Yu's life, the only thing he could do was to use the cream in the palace. The imperial doctor of the capital and the rot-reducing and muscle-regenerating cream never arrived, and finally Yuwang Longxiang died in Wuzhou City in Dazhou.
"Rescue battle report," Luo Wei asked Xie Yu urgently, "What about this letter? Why didn't you tell me?"
Xie Yu said: "No one saw this letter!"
"Will the Ministry of War not see the battle report of the Five Flames?!" Luo Wei couldn't sit still, "How can I believe this?!"
Xie Yu said: "I have brought people to the Ministry of War to find them. There were no five flames in the battle report of those days."
Luo Wei stood in a daze. He never thought of killing Long Xiang. This man was obviously someone who had a longer life than him, so why did he die like this? Without a leg, this person can't live
Xie Yu didn't have time to wait for Luo Wei to be in a daze, and said anxiously: "You are talking, how do you tell Chaozhong about this?"
Luo Wei fell back and said, "Long Xiang, is he really dead?"
"You have seen the funeral letter, don't you believe it?" Xie Yu said.
Luo Wei said, "Even if you haven't seen the battle report from Linshui Pass, what about the letter for help at the back? People who can't have Long Xiang, just send this battle report back, right?"
Xie Yu rubbed his eyes with his hands, "The Ministry of War is already looking for it, and it will be delivered in a while."
"You," Luo Wei said, "everyone is dead, what's the use of sending it to me?"
"Except for the battle reports of Beiyan and Nanzhao," Xie Yu said, "The Ministry of War will postpone any irrelevant letters. There is no way to do this."
Luo Wei was speechless for a long time again. After leaving Linshui Pass, he was qualified to send a battle report back. Long Xiang's entourage and government offices in various places were not qualified to send war reports. They could only send official letters. Who in the DPRK still has the heart to read these official letters? Even the Ministry of Household, now they look at the official documents of grain tax and silver in various places first, and all others are postponed.
"Think about what you want to say to the Empress Dowager Liu." Xie Yu said to Luo Wei.
Luo Wei said: "What should I be afraid of?" But there was a burst of irritability in his heart.
Zhao Fu walked in with Wang Wenweng, the Minister of War, and Wang Shangshu.
When Luo Wei saw this old minister of the same generation as Luo Zhiqiu, he rushed to Wang Shangshu and said, "Uncle Wang."
"My lord," Wang Shangshu's face was extremely ugly, but he still gave Luo Wei a salute and said: "The Ministry of War has already checked the matter of Prince Yu, but still can't find the battle report, but the city gate officer has found it. Records," Wang Shangshu said, put a stack of letters on the tea table in front of Luo Wei and Xie Yu, and said, "This is a letter we found, about the condition of Prince Yu, asking for an imperial doctor and asking for medicine."
Luo Wei flipped through these letters, and many of the envelopes had the words "100,000 urgency" written on them. If it weren't for the iron rule of the Zhou Dynasty that the royal family's affairs could not be shared, these people could write on the envelopes that King Yu was critically ill. Character.
"That's not right," Xie Yu said at this time: "The Ministry of War can't care to read these letters, and the Imperial Household Division should also receive the letter. How could they not know anything about it?"
As soon as Luo Wei thought that the person in charge of the palace department was Li Prince Longxing, he didn't answer Xie Yu's words. Although the Imperial Household Division claims to be in charge of the royal family, it has always been a small character who informed the emperor about royal affairs, so Long Xuan would rest assured that Long Xing would be in charge of the Imperial Household Division. Long Xing is a person who only laughs and does not cry when he sees Long Xiang's death. Luo Wei doesn't feel strange at all if he hides what happened to Long Xiang and does not report it.
Wang Shangshu looked at Xie Yu who was about to ask Luo Wei a question, so he said to Xie Yu: "Mingyuan, you can't control the royal affairs."
Xie Yu only then realized that he was dizzy, so he asked Luo Wei about this kind of thing. At this time, he also remembered that the Imperial Household Division was in charge of Long Xing. In the field, Long Xiang slapped his third brother in the face in public at that time, it would be strange that Prince Li didn't take revenge now!
"Go check," Luo Wei sat and thought for a while, and said to Xie Yu and Wang Shangshu: "There is a registration at the city gate, and we can know when the battle report entered Shangdu City and who went to check the military department. All the battle reports collected will be arrested and tried for me! No matter what, I will give an explanation to the Empress Dowager Liu."
"Has the news of Prince Yu's death been sent out?" Xie Yu asked.
"Press it for the time being," Luo Wei said, "I will go and talk to the royal family to see how to transport King Yu's body back to Shangdu."
Xie Yu and Wang Shangshu saw that Luo Wei had made up his mind, so they didn't say anything, and left to run the business.
Long Xiang actually died, Luo Wei, who was sitting alone in the study, felt a pain in his heart. How could things become like this
