"Please come into the backyard. Make tea."
Wu Nian raised his right hand and said to the soldiers with a smile.
"Yes." The soldier responded and quickly went down. After that, Wu Nian went back to the bedroom, and with the service of the maid, he changed into a set of formal clothes, and then rushed to the main room in the backyard.
Wu Nian rarely met his subjects in the backyard, but this time he was really happy, so he made an exception.
Wu Nian didn't know much about Wang Youxiao's actions in Chu. But Wang Youxiao spent several months traveling long distances to Chu State. He also brought back the families of Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu from Chu State, which was definitely a great achievement.
Wu Nian really likes this upright and strong Wang Gongcao.
After Wu Nian entered the main room, he immediately saw the dusty Wang Youxiao sitting on the Taishi chair. Without waiting for Wang Youxiao to salute, Wu Nian said first: "Youxiao. No need to be polite."
Wang Youxiao silently put down his hands and sat back. Wu young man nodded lightly, came to the main seat and sat down. He raised his head and said to Wang Youxiao: "Youxiao. It's a long journey this time. It's really hard on you."
"I have bought some property for your family and added some slaves. Please don't refuse."
Wang Youxiao opened his mouth. He knew the current financial situation of Fuhan General's Mansion. Really poor. He doesn't want any wealth either.
Wu Nian waved his hand, indicating that he would just accept it.
Those who have merit must be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes must be punished. Besides, with Wang Youxiao's contribution, a mere industrial reward is not worth mentioning.
"Yu Xiao. Did things go smoothly this time? Besides, I have never been to Chudu. Although I have heard many rumors about Chudu, they are all false. Tell me, Chu State, Chudu What is the situation?"
Wu Niansheng was afraid of Wang Youxiao's rejection, so he quickly changed the topic and showed curiosity.
"In general, it went smoothly. It's just that the Chu court wanted to plot against the general. I refused." Wang Youxiao thought of this trip to Chu, with a little smile on his face, and said that the Chu Dynasty wanted to confer Wu Nian as Liaodong General Soldier, but told Wu Nian about letting Wu Min enter the court as a hostage.
When Wu Nian heard this, he immediately sneered and said: "How could my precious son be sent as a hostage to others? Besides. I was about to annex the Chu State, how could I give the Chu Dynasty a hostage and tie my own hands and feet? well done."
"Yeah." Wang Youxiao nodded, then expanded the topic and told Wu Nian what he saw about the situation in Chu.
People are drunk and obsessed with money, the current situation is corrupt and so on.
"No country like this will ever perish." After hearing this, Wu Nian said with joy on his face.
"That's right. I'm afraid you don't know, Yu Xiao. Now Chu State has replaced Xiong Wuwo. He has been replaced by a man named Wang Zhongbi. I have asked Jia Gui to investigate him."
Immediately, Wu Nian smiled and said to Wang Youxiao.
"Congratulations, general." When Wang Youxiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he clasped his fists and said. Putting aside everything else, changing generals on the spot is definitely not a good thing.
"Yes." Wu Nian also smiled and nodded gently.
At this moment, the soldiers came in from outside, bent down and reported: "General. Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu are outside asking for a meeting."
Wu Nian and Wang Youxiao looked at each other and smiled together.
"Please come in." Wu Nian waved his hand and said.
"Yes." The soldier responded, turned around and went down.
Shortly after. Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu walked in from the outside. Looking at Wu Nian sitting on the main seat, they immediately bowed and saluted: "Thank you, general."
"You're welcome. Sit down." Wu Nian waved his hand and asked them to sit down.
"Thank you, General." Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu clasped their fists and came to sit opposite Wang Youxiao. The two of them were still in a daze.
did not expect. Wu Nian really accomplished this. When they heard Wu Nian say that he wanted to bring their family members to Liaodong, they thought it was a fantasy.
This can also be said to be the best result.
If they surrender to Wu Nian, all the family members left in Chu will be killed.
If they do not surrender to Wu Nian, they will be beheaded by Wu Nian.
Even if Wu Nian showed mercy and let them go back. I am afraid that they will also be killed because of the defeat, which will also affect their families.
it's good now. They met their families in Liaodong, and they were safe and sound. Not to mention, they did not exclude Wu Nian.
Of course, it's different when you're an opponent. The two have not forgotten each other's bet, Xinting Dao and Osmanthus Brewing. At that time, they really wanted to take Wu Nian's head.
Now that they thought about it, they thought it was ridiculous. There is no clear distinction between the prey and the hunter. When they wanted to kill Wu Nian, Wu Nian had already laid a dragnet and captured them alive.
"By the way, let me tell the two generals something first. Xiong Wuwo and Wu Jing have both been dismissed." Wu Nian said with a smile on his face.
Then he raised his head and looked at the two people's reactions.
Both of them had strong reactions, showing expressions such as "as expected", "sigh", "regret" and so on.
obviously. The two of them were mentally prepared for what would happen to Xiong Wuwo and Wu Jing. They all knew how much risk they had to bear to be a general in Chu State.
Not only on the battlefield, it is possible to be defeated and die. The most terrifying thing is the assassination from behind.
A victorious general might be beheaded for a certain crime and his whole family would be implicated.
"It's a pity General Xiong. Although he fell into your trap, General, he is still a good general. He is in charge of Nanhai Prefecture and Shanhaiguan. With all due respect, it will be very difficult for the general to take over Nanhai Prefecture. As for Shanhaiguan, there is no way. Maybe." Huang Hu said bluntly with an upright temperament.
Guan Jinhan did not say that, but asked: "Dare you ask the general. Who will succeed General Xiong?"
When Wu Nian heard this, his heart moved, why had he forgotten these two people. Instead of sending someone to investigate Wang Zhongbi, it would be better to ask these two people directly.
"Wang Zhongbi succeeds Xiong Wuwo."
"Qian can succeed Wu Jing."
"Two generals. Are you familiar with these two people?" Wu Nian asked sincerely.
"..." Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu's expressions froze when they heard this. After looking at each other, they both smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
"Huh?" Wu Nian and Wang Youxiao frowned and looked at each other, their hearts sinking.
"Are these two people very powerful?" Wu Nian asked in a deep voice. He couldn't help but feel nervous. Finally, he used a divorce tactic to drive away Xiong Wuwo. If this were to be more powerful, wouldn't it be like shooting yourself in the foot?
Huang Hu didn't answer and looked up at Guan Jinhan. Wu Nian and Wang Youxiao also turned to look at Guan Jinhan.
Guan Jinhan shook his head, pondered for a moment before raising his head and saying: "Qian Neng is a civil servant, we don't know him. And Wang Zhongbi. How should I put it?"
