"Your Highness!" Five big and three thick men fell in front of Zhao Guangyuan.
Travel-stained, hair disheveled.
"Peng Zhan?" Zhao Guangyuan stared at him in astonishment, "Aren't you in Liaodong?"
"Your Highness!" Peng Zhan burst into tears. He traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers and had a hard time just to see His Highness. Fortunately, His Highness still remembered him.
Zhao Guangyuan winked at Cao Cuo. Cao Cuo understood and exited the hall, closed the door and stood guard at the door.
"Please wait a minute, there is no one here, just speak slowly."
Zhao Guangyuan frowned. Peng Zhan was a family general of Liaodong general Sun Lu. He should be guarding Hangu Pass with the Sun family at this time. How could he appear in the capital?
"Your Highness, please save General Sun, save the Sun family!" Peng Zhan took two steps on his knees, raised his tearful eyes and begged sadly.
He knew that His Highness Seventh Prince was in a difficult situation and could not protect himself. Moreover, on his way to Beijing, he also heard the news that His Highness Seventh Prince was murdered and his heirs were exterminated...
But they begged many people, but all of them avoided it and refused to take action. Who else would save the Sun family except His Majesty the Seventh Prince?
His old general was a subordinate of Lu Guogong, and he had guarded Hangu Pass with the Lu family army for decades. His Highness the Seventh Prince would definitely help him for Lu Guogong's sake.
"Your Highness, you are the only one in the world who can help the Sun family..."
Hangu Pass is a military key pass of Daqi, located on the border of Liaodong. With Hangu Pass as the boundary, Daqi is on one side and the grassland tribes are on the other. It was originally guarded here by Lu Guogong led his four sons and 300,000 Lu family troops.
Sun Lu was Lu Guogong's general and right-hand man. After Lu Guogong's family was exterminated, Hangu Pass was taken over by the new border guard general sent by the imperial court. Although Sun Lu's rank has not been reduced, he has been working as an idler these years, and he no longer even has the opportunity to enter the big account and obey orders.
"...My old general has been assigned to manage military fields these years. Two major generals, one is assigned to manage military supplies, and the other is assigned to the fire room. They are not even allowed to participate in daily drills..."
A third-grade general with rich combat experience and participated in countless battles, large and small. Two major generals, one with a fifth-grade and the other with a sixth-grade, with numerous military exploits, were sent to take charge of military supplies and fire houses?
Zhao Guangyuan clenched his fists tightly. He expected that after his grandfather left, the Lu family army would be dispersed and the old people would have a hard time, but he didn't expect it to be so hard!
"Two months ago, the Munitions Department said that the supplies allocated by the imperial court were lacking, and they suspected that my eldest young master had tampered with it, saying that he had enriched his own pockets. My young master was unhappy, argued with the other party, and accidentally beat the man seriously. General Guan then ordered The two young masters were imprisoned and whipped every day, hoping that they would be beaten..."
With a thud, Zhao Guangyuan slammed his fist on the table, his eyes spitting fire.
This is to clean up all my grandfather’s old departments!
And resorted to such despicable means!
"Your Highness, please save them. My eldest young master is innocent. The man the young master beat is the son of General Guan's subordinate. It is said that someone in the palace said that the young master's life should be sacrificed. My old general will There are only these two bloodlines, please save them..."
"That person is dead?"
"No. But every time the old general went to see him, he was bedridden and said his internal injuries were too serious. He wouldn't let the doctor brought by the old general check him."
Zhao Guangyuan couldn't help but sneer. This is to prepare for the exhaustion. When Sun Yu and Sun Ze can't stand it anymore, they will beat them and they will be cured without any medicine.
Zhao Guangyuan couldn't sit still and paced back and forth in the hall.
It's been two months, and Sun Yu and Sun Ze don't know how much longer they can survive. Regardless of whether they are involved or not, if someone else sets a trap, they will have to wait for them to get in.
I'm afraid the purpose is to uproot the old man left behind by my grandfather. Even if they have been squeezed out of the center of power and not allowed to have access to important military matters, the relationship between the Lu family and the army is complicated, so I am afraid they are still worried.
You have to eliminate people before you can control them.
It's been six years, I'm afraid they haven't completely convinced Lu Jiajun yet.
"What about Shao Liang?"
"General Shao has been seconded to guard Ningwuguan. Major General Shao Zuo is also going with him. Major General Shao You is in charge of the stable."
Zhao Guangyuan couldn't help but laugh angrily. Grandfather's right-hand man, one was sent to manage military fields, and the other was transferred out. very nice.
"You go down and freshen up. I will consider it carefully before I get back to you."
"Yes. I would like to thank His Highness Seventh Prince for taking such trouble for my old general. I will resign."
Cao Cuo was standing outside the palace and had heard everything. When he saw Peng Zhan coming out, he sighed secretly and felt quite sympathetic.
He thought that he and His Highness were already in dire straits, but he didn't expect that Lu Guogong's old army far away in Liaodong would have an even harder time.
He comforted: "Don't worry too much, my Highness will not ignore it. But our Highness is also in trouble. If things don't go as expected, don't blame our Highness."
Peng Zhan shook his head: "My old general told me not to embarrass His Highness the Seventh Highness when I came here. We all understand His Highness's situation."
The old general didn't want to send him, but the old lady saw that she was about to lose her beloved son, and she cried so hard that she could hardly see her eyes. The old general endured his heartache and sent him to Beijing.
On the other side, Liaodong, the Sun family.
Sun Luke politely sent away the steward sent by Shao Liang. He turned around and saw his wife wiping tears on the chair and sighed.
He came closer and said, "Stop crying. Didn't the doctor tell you not to cry anymore? If you cry any more, you will go blind. How will you play with your grandchildren then?"
Mrs. Xie took away the veil and looked at him with red eyes: "Isn't there anything General Shao can do? Doesn't his family have an old relationship in Beijing? Can't he help?"
Sun Lu frowned: "Don't we have old friends in Beijing? Didn't our two daughters-in-law also write letters? Do you think there is any reply?"
The world is in a hot and cold state, nothing more than this.
In just a few short years, Sun Lu has experienced the coldness of the tea and the desolation of the music.
Ms. Xie couldn't help crying again, "What should I do? Yu'er and Ze'er have been locked up in the water prison for almost two months. How long can they survive?"
Her son really hurt her.
"Don't worry, I've sent people to see that Yu'er Ze'er is quite well. Although they are punished every day, they can still endure it. They have the backbone of my Sun family, and they will not admit anything they haven't done. of."
"Can they survive two months, or three or four months?" Ms. Xie was heartbroken.
"That Guan Du, why don't you show any mercy at all! Ze'er just argued a few words because he couldn't see Yu'er being wronged, and it was also because that boy Qi Song made a move first that he retaliated. Now it's said that it's him and Yu'er They are accomplices, and they are forced to reveal the whereabouts of lost weapons and military supplies. This is a deliberate frame-up!"
This is deliberate framing.
Sun Lu was sarcastic, knowing it well. Guan Du wanted to drive his father and son out of Liaodong and drive out the Lu family army.
Unexpectedly, he withstood all kinds of pressure and refused to leave. Guan Du had no choice but to come up with such a cruel trick and actually attacked his son.
The methods are ruthless. This is going to cut off his roots!
He can't leave Hangu Pass! He promised Lu Guogong that he would defend Hangu Pass to the death.
Mrs. Xie was worried about the safety of her two sons and could not sit still for a moment: "Sir, tell me, will the Seventh Highness have any idea? Will he help us?"
See you tomorrow~
