Chapter 599: Let brother go and have a headache

Chapter 599 Let the elder brother have a headache

Du Wan and Marshal Wei chatted privately for a full hour.

No one knows exactly what was discussed.

Finally, Marshal Wei ordered the withdrawal of troops, and the northwest army returned.

In just a few days, the sky in the northwest has changed.

Marshal Wei announced his surrender to the court, and everyone in the Wei family will return to Beijing, including himself. This so-called rebellion is like a cloud that disappears as quickly as it appears.

Wei Ge and others were picked up and taken down the mountain that day.

After all, they did not dare to act rashly and stayed on the mountain until nightfall. Du Wan did not appear, but they waited for someone to pick them up, who was sent by Marshal Wei.

They will know about the withdrawal of troops when they come down from the mountain.

What kind of ambitions and ambitions were all wiped out by Princess Jiaoyang's troubles?

Some generals who did not know the inside story were not angry at first, thinking that the Wei family was being threatened. When they were about to make a fuss, they were suppressed by familiar insiders. It was not just the Wei family who were captured by Du Wan. I wont publicize it when I come back, but if my relatives and friends come to ask about it, they will still give some advice.

Just like this under the threat of strong force.

The upper class people in the northwest became strangely quiet.

The generals at the top were silent, and the people below had no choice but to obey orders no matter what they thought.

Du Wan wandered around the key city in the northwest.

Until early morning on the third day.

Some people saw a person standing on the top of the observation tower high on the city wall. The people standing underground looked up and could only see a small shadow, but they could vaguely see that the man was wearing a bamboo hat, holding a long sword, and was wearing hunting clothes.

At such a high place, the man still stood very steadily.

It seems as if he was born to stand on a high place and look down on all living beings.

When the man rubbed his eyes and wanted to look again, the top of the observation tower was already empty.

Du Wan jumped off the city wall from the top of the observation tower.

The soldiers guarding the city were startled when they saw her, and were about to ask who she was.

Feeling that there is no one around anymore?

Such a strange thing happened, so he quickly reported it to his superiors.

After the boss heard about the other party's appearance, he quietly suppressed the matter and reported it to the superior. Then, one report after another, until the news reached the ears of the old marshal.

The old marshal has become quite haggard these days, but he does not dare to fall down and still sits with his spine straight.

Wei Zhongyuan said: "Father, is the princess showing up?"

Wait until she comes to the door again.

Do we...really want this?

What if you tell me? The old marshal looked sideways at Wei Zhongyuan.

Wei Zhongyuan clenched his fist tightly on his thigh, "At worst, the fish will die and the net will break."

"Stupid! Even if the fish dies, the net will not be broken. So what if the Wei family dies? Who will remember us a hundred years from now? Or do you naively think that you will become a hero who will go down in history?"

The old marshal asked Wei Zhongyuan and his face turned red.

After a long time, the old marshal said again: "Historical books are written by future generations. Maybe there will be a record in the future. The Wei family conspired to rebel, and the whole family was destroyed, and there was no unjust death."

Its really possible.

Du Wan, who was eating noodles on the street near the Marshal's Mansion, happened to hear the conversation between the old Marshal and Wei Zhongyuan.

Suddenly, the old marshal in the mansion heard a chuckle.

This chuckle was far away, or it could be said to be very close. No one was in the house, but the voice came in, "Marshal Wei is a sensible man."

Marshal Weis hands that were placed squarely on his legs shook slightly, County, Princess?

The old man who shouted this was extremely bitter and in awe.

What is this ability? this

When he was young, he once worshiped a reclusive old man as his teacher, and he taught him martial arts.

Before he died, his master warned him that when he met the children of a big family, especially the children of a family with a long history, he should make friends with them if he could; if he couldn't, he should not provoke them.

Master said that ordinary people...can't afford to offend him.

Marshal Wei thought that his family was powerful enough and could no longer be considered an ordinary person.

Now it seems that he had misunderstood it at first.

The untouchability that Master originally referred to has nothing to do with power...

Wei Zhongyuan was the first to know about Marshal Wei's abnormality, "Father, what's wrong with you?"

Didnt you hear what the princess said just now? Marshal Wei looked at his son.

Wei Zhongyuan was stunned, "No."

"That's nothing. The princess should be around here. Please ask everyone in the house to pay attention and don't offend the princess." Marshal Wei suppressed the huge gap and bitterness in his heart, hoping that the juniors would not offend him without being careless. Princess.

Wei Zhongyuan met his father's strange look and understood a little. Something must have happened just now, or something he didn't know about. Then he followed his father's words and said: "Father, please don't worry, everyone is staying at home and not going out. "

They are all good boys.

"Yes, our Wei family has been upright and upright all our lives. If we were not really forced to survive, we would not risk all our efforts to rebel. Now the king is in charge of the government. I heard that the court has become a lot cleaner."

The next step is the father and son. Each sentence you say and the other say are full of helplessness.

He said why they rebelled, how they had no choice but to do so, and that the court had not paid the soldiers for several years, and that the food sent every year was old and mixed with a lot of sand, making it impossible to eat. The warm clothes are even more excessive. There is not even a bit of warm cotton inside, it is all grass.

Not to mention the medicinal materials delivered, they are all of inferior quality and often in arrears.

Every year many people die in the military camp due to lack of medicine.

There have been constant natural disasters in the past two years, and the lives of soldiers in the northwest have become even more difficult.

Du Wan, who was eating noodles outside, was eating happily at first, but then she ate slower and slower, and finally she was thoughtful. As far as she knew, the emperor's uncle had not treated Xixi badly in the past two years.

She didnt know how the food was, but there was definitely no shortage of military pay. Where did the money go?

With her help, the emperor is no longer short of money, so he should not be greedy for this money.

Either the Wei family lied, or someone interfered with it, embezzling the general's salary without saying a word, and successfully concealed the matter? This is not a small matter and cannot be accomplished by one or two people.

The Ministry of War is responsible for food, wages, clothing, weapons and other supplies.

Du Wan couldn't help but think of the dead Ma Shangshu.

At that time, Ma Shangshu actually sent people to assassinate their brother and sister. Not only Du Qian was surprised, but Du Wan was also surprised. You must know that in the main hall, Ma Shangshu was very cooperative and quick to give in. Both of them thought that he would be someone who knew current affairs. They really didn't expect that he would secretly kill the brother and sister. It was also the time when Du Qian almost got into trouble. .

Du Qian specially conducted a re-investigation for this purpose.

After learning that it was the truth, Du Wan quickly solved the problem.

Looking back at this moment, Ma Shangshu is indeed quite abnormal. Could it be... caused by a guilty conscience?

Forget it, send the news back to the capital and let the elder brother have the headache.

PS: Todays update is almost coming to an end, lets sort out the subsequent plot. There have been several times when an author almost stopped updating. I thought of everyone waiting, but I still held back. It was not easy...
