A few days later...
Wuhuan Royal Court…
Wow!
Cups, coffee tables, and wine glasses were shattered on the floor.
"Gu Sheng! You are so brave. Who asked you to privately send troops south to provoke Dawu?"
"Yue Ming, as a veteran, you should know what is the crime of deploying troops without permission?"
"One king and one general, five thousand passionate men of our clan, five thousand living lives, were persecuted at the hands of the two of you!"
In the royal court, Wuhuan King Gudema was so angry that his face turned red. The outstretched fingers trembled slightly and scolded Gu Sheng and others.
He was really mad. If he wasn't a king, he should be patient. He insisted on killing the two people to vent the hatred of his people.
As a veteran general, Yue Ming failed to prevent His Highness from making mistakes. In addition, the entire army of 5,000 people was wiped out. It was inseparable from him. Both of them? It is equivalent to adding more sin to sin. Even if he dies, it will not be a pity!
"Your Majesty, I am guilty. Five thousand Wuhuan men have ruined Dawu and caused the loss of many wives, children and families. It is all because of my desecration and dereliction of duty. I am willing to die to pay for my sin." Old Yue Ming burst into tears, feeling deeply guilty.
Yue Ming was indeed a true hero, with countless achievements in his military life. He defeated the Xiongnu many times and was regarded as the general of Wuhuan who established the country. Unexpectedly, the old man was confused and was bewitched by the prince. He used the banner of the Huns to provoke Dawu.
It wasn't until after the defeat that he understood. What he did was actually bringing shame to his tribe.
"Hmph! You also know your mistake. You have been a veteran of two dynasties during your military life, but you actually made mistakes in your old age and stained your life. Five thousand lives are enough to kill you with a thousand swords."
"But I hope that you will devote your life to Wuhuan and make countless meritorious services, so I will spare you the death penalty! But you cannot escape the crime of living. I will strip you of your position as General of the Zhendong Army, demote you to General of Zhendong, go to the front line, and keep an eye on the Huns. "
He was only removed from the post of general of the town army and demoted to an official position. Such a punishment was already considered light. It can be seen from this! Gudema's respect for Yue Ming was not the slightest.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yue Ming bowed deeply and was convinced.
Then, King Wuhuan looked at Gu Li and Gu Sheng. His eyes were extremely complicated. Dealing with these two people was the most difficult thing.
One is his son and the other is his brother, both of them are his relatives.
"As a prince, I sent troops privately without any intention. Now I am temporarily depriving you of your position as prince. Go back to your mother and queen to reflect for a year."
"Gu Li, as the king's younger brother and the prince's uncle, it's fine that he didn't give any warning! He even allowed the prince to make a mistake. His crime is unforgivable and he has been whipped a hundred times to set an example."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
For personal reasons, this punishment is too low. A palace ban and a hundred floggings, this matter is over.
certainly! A year of palace confinement might mean nothing to others? But for a prince with brothers, it is undoubtedly more uncomfortable than killing himself.
Of course Gu Sheng didn't want to, "Father, I know you are wrong! You must not send your son to your mother's house?"
In the royal family, a place where power is played, one year is enough for many ministers who support them to defect to another prince.
King Wuhuan was already dizzy with anger. He didn't listen to the sophistry. He waved his hand and snorted, "Humph! Someone, drag the prince down."
The Wuhuan clan is not as big a clan as the Xiongnu. The Huns can gather more than 300,000 troops with just a little effort. However, the Wuhuan occupy a small territory in the north, with only a few hundred thousand civilians and tens of thousands of soldiers. , the loss of 5,000 soldiers and horses in the first battle, nearly one-tenth of the tribe, would make anyone feel sad.
"Father, although eldest brother is guilty, he did it for the sake of the tribe. Please don't be angry, father."
The speaker is the second prince of the Wuhuan tribe, Gunuo! He has a gentle personality, is extremely intelligent, is not good at fighting, and has little power. He was deeply loved by King Wuhuan.
well!
Looking at Gu Nuo, King Wuhuan's anger dissipated more than half, and he sighed: "Oh! Nuo'er, if five thousand soldiers and horses are defeated, they will be defeated. Although my father is angry, he will not kill people. But, your Sister, I was arrested by the King of Qin, and now I don’t know whether I am alive or dead? If this news is known to your mother, I guess there will be trouble again. "
King Wuhuan looked helpless, and when he thought of the angry queen, he couldn't help but tremble secretly.
It can be seen that the usually majestic King Wuhuan is also a henpecked guy.
after all! Women on the grasslands are not like women from the Central Plains. The status of women on the grassland is basically the same as that of men. Men fight outside, and women teach children, take care of housework, etc. at home, and the arrangements are clearly made both inside and outside.
"Father, I am willing to go to Qin to negotiate with the King of Qin. If the King of Qin dares to bully my sister, I am willing to lead troops to conquer Qin." Gu Nuo said coldly.
As an older brother, Gounod is actually also a doting sister.
"Um!"
"Okay, you and Gu Xun will go to Qin." King Wuhuan agreed.
"Thank you, father."
If King Wuhuan had the character he had when he was young, who would dare to capture his daughter? Tens of thousands of troops had already arrived at the city.
But after all, it's just the past. Today's Wuhuan clan is no longer at its peak strength. It was only because his neighbors to the left, the Northern Huns, had risen so quickly that they became the strongest tribe in the grasslands. If Huerzan of the Northern Huns can unify the Southern Huns in recent years, it is estimated that it will only be a matter of time before the entire grassland falls into his hands.
The land of Qin, the palace of the Prince of Qin...
Good guy! The Wuhuan tribe really sent an envoy.
"Dongfang Yu, why did you call this princess here?" Gu Yuena lazily walked into the county mansion, looking bored, and asked Dongfang Yu.
well!
This guy…
I don’t know what evil he has done. Was he really blind at the time and came back to capture such an old man? Even if he was provided with food and accommodation, he would come to the lobby of the county government office every now and then to annoy him, making him avoid Gu Yuena like the god of plague every day!
"Gu Yuena, can you please stop being so presumptuous? This is Beiliang, this is Prince Qin's Mansion, not your home, nor the bedroom where you sleep."
After meeting Gu Yuena, Dongfang Yu felt upset in his heart.
"Hello!"
"Did you make a mistake? You asked me to come, so I came. Now you are blaming me. What do you mean?"
Beside the desk, Gu Yuena was not polite, directly found a chair and leaned next to Dongfang Yu. original! She should be happy to have such a big beauty take the initiative to be by her side; but now! Not to mention happy, he couldn't even hide.
Subconsciously, Dongfang Yu moved his position slightly, so that he was two fingers away.
Feeling Dongfang Yu's subtle move, Gu Yuena looked away and slightly put her mouth a few centimeters away from Dongfang Yu. "My Lord Qin, why do I feel that you are afraid of me."
"At the beginning, you wanted to capture me and blackmail my father for benefits. What? Now you feel a little regretful."
Smelling the faint fragrance, Dongfang Yu couldn't help pinching his nose. This fragrance smells a bit heady. I am a man and I can't hold it anymore.
Standing up quickly, Dongfang Yu stepped aside, with cold sweat on his forehead like rolling pearls, and said: "Two days later! Your second brother Guno will come to Qin as a negotiator to take you home. Don't worry! This is I will definitely not stop you this time, so just go home with your second brother."
