Now the emperor sent a letter asking Ouyang Kun to take Wang Xiao back to Beijing to investigate the matter.
Nalan Jinnian directly crushed the letter into pieces and said to Ouyang Kun, "You will return to Beijing with General Wang in the afternoon."
The letter had just been received. Wang Xiao was still in the military camp where the three injured soldiers were recuperating, so he didn't know yet.
Ouyang Kun said immediately: "But the emperor asked me to take General Wang back to the capital immediately. I don't dare to delay even a quarter of an hour!"
Nalan Jinnian looked at him coldly: "The matters in the army have not been settled yet."
Ouyang Kun subconsciously took a step back: "I am just following orders. King Jin forgives me!"
Now Ouyang Kun doesn't dare to delay any longer!
Wang Xiao's supervisor all testified that he had embezzled money from the former treasury, which means that there are both witnesses and physical evidence. If he didn't take Wang Xiao back to Beijing immediately, something would happen, and his life would be in danger!
Let Wang Xiao stay in the military camp and explain the affairs of the military camp
Ouyang Kun suspected that Nalan Jinnian's brain was filled with water.
Wang Xiao dared to steal money from the former treasury, what does that mean
It means that he has the intention to rebel!
King Jin actually asked a person with rebellious intentions to explain clearly what happened in the army before escorting him back to Beijing for interrogation
Either he is out of his mind, or he is so confused by the beauty of Princess Hui'an that he is stupid and ignorant!
Who can guarantee how he will explain matters in the military
"If General Wang did not arrange the affairs in the army and the Dongling Kingdom sent troops to invade, Mr. Ouyang, can you bear the responsibility? Besides, if it weren't for Mr. Ouyang's recklessness yesterday, the Dongling Kingdom would have no excuse to send troops. In this way, Mr. Ouyang Is it an extra sin?"
Ouyang Kun was suffocated. He knew that he couldn't argue with Nalan Jinnian, and he wouldn't win the argument anyway!
"I don't dare. I'm just following orders. Otherwise, if something happens, I won't be able to bear it!"
Who doesn’t know that you are the emperor’s most favored younger brother, more favored than his own son? Of course you are not afraid!
He is just a small young minister of Dali Temple. He only reached this position after many years of obeying the emperor's orders and doing practical things conscientiously.
He originally wanted to use this matter to mention it further, but now he doesn't dare to hope too much. He just hopes that he can bring Wang Xiao back to the capital smoothly, and that he will not make any mistakes and will not be dismissed!
After all, Wang Xiao is a general with great martial arts skills. They only have a few guards here, and they don't know if they can successfully bring him back to the capital!
Wang Xiao ran away halfway, so he couldn't eat and walked away!
Nalan Jinnian sneered: "If anything happens, I will take care of it!"
Nalan Jinnian left these words and strode away.
He would not punish Ouyang Kun until he returned to the capital!
As Nalan Jinnian walked, he asked Xia Xuan to call Wang Xiao. Liu Kai and several other lieutenants went to Wang Xiao's tent to discuss matters.
The little girl in his tent was still sleeping, and Nalan Jinnian wanted her to sleep a little longer.
As for the warm tent, how could she let other men go to her tent to discuss matters
We can only go to Wang Xiao's camp.
Ouyang Kun felt angry and annoyed, but he dared not speak out.
He looked at the third prince: "Third prince, what do you think we should do about this? How about you go and persuade the prince. I feel that the prince is so obsessed with Princess Hui'an that he doesn't even know right from wrong."
Throughout the ages, there have been many men, including monarchs, princes, ministers, and men who have been fascinated by beauty and yet have been foolish and ignorant.
There are even emperors who love beauty but not country!
Therefore, Ouyang Kun felt that the once wise, mighty, decisive, wise and resourceful King Jin had changed!
In other aspects, he still maintains decisiveness in killing and strategizing, but when it comes to people and matters related to Princess Hui'an, he is completely biased towards Princess Hui'an, with an attitude of trying to turn big things into trivial matters. This is because of being seduced by beauty. A sign of confusion!
The third prince shook his head bitterly: "Your Excellency also knows that Uncle Seventeenth Emperor doesn't even listen to his father's words, and I am just a little nephew of the Emperor. How could he look at me?"
Ouyang Kun was extremely anxious: "Did we really wait until the afternoon to return to Beijing? We also asked Wang Xiao to explain the affairs in the army. If this gives him the opportunity and time to explain things, what if he does something treasonous? ?”
The third prince looked shocked: "Isn't this possible? I think General Wang is probably just greedy for money, and he shouldn't be plotting rebellion. The seventeenth emperor's uncle can't be wrong about people. He has always been wise, decisive, and unique. A wise eye will never see the wrong person."
It means that Nalan Jinnian has said that if anything happens, he will take care of it. Isn't it better this way
In this way, no matter what happens, it will be none of their business!
Originally, the third prince also suspected that Wang Xiao might have actually embezzled money from the previous dynasty's treasury.
But will this matter implicate Princess Hui'an and her family, and to what extent will it be implicated
The letter did not say what the current situation of An Guogong's family was, whether their home was ransacked or surrounded by heavy troops.
It stands to reason that it would be unavoidable not to confiscate your home and be surrounded by heavy troops.
If something happens to Duke Anguo's Mansion...
The third prince began to think about how to save Nuan secretly.
Although she was unruly and had a physical relationship with the seventeenth emperor's uncle so quickly, the third prince found that he still liked her and wanted to get her.
Ouyang Kun was anxious and helpless. Even if King Jin said he would keep it, if something really happened, how could he escape
But now if he is asked to take Wang Xiao away directly, Ouyang Kun believes that King Jin will kill him directly!
That is a person who is more terrifying than the emperor.
It is reasonable for the emperor to kill people.
King Jin kills people based on his mood.
Kill him and find some reason.
"The third prince, the ninth prince, these two princes are the ones that the emperor wants to stay to help the army. King Jin summoned several generals and deputy generals to discuss matters. The two princes should also go to discuss matters! One person is planning for shortcomings, two is planning for strengths, and two The princes discuss matters together, so that we can have a clearer understanding of how to deal with the Dongling Kingdom. Is there anyone secretly causing trouble, right?"
Ouyang Kun reminded them that they should supervise and discover Wang Xiao's conspiracy as soon as possible.
The third prince thought about it and felt that it was true. Although he had never participated in military affairs, his father had asked him and the Ninth Emperor Brother to stay and help out. If he did nothing, he would not be able to find out if something happened. Problem, that would also make him appear too incompetent.
"Master Ouyang is right, Ninth Emperor Brother, let's go discuss the matter too! We can't let our father give us the opportunity to practice, especially you, Ninth Emperor Brother! You are born with strong martial arts and a martial arts prodigy. You will definitely have a place in the army. What you did to relieve your father's worries made your father look up to you with admiration."
The third prince reached out to put his hand on his shoulder, but found that he was not tall enough, so he retracted his hand angrily and walked forward.
The Ninth Prince followed expressionlessly.
However, the two of them wanted to go in to discuss matters, but were stopped outside the tent by soldiers.
