Chapter 2756 2758 [Hot potato]
"King Tiedar, I won't take your life." Xiang Nan got off his horse, walked forward, and said to King Tiedar, "I want to save your life and take you to Beijing's Miansheng to solve the problem of my emperor's brother being assassinated." the truth.
So you must not die. If you choose to commit suicide, I will bloodbath Danchi, leaving no one in the clan. Do you understand? "
King Tiedar was taken aback, then nodded.
"General Pei, send someone to protect King Tiedar, and don't let him die. I will dedicate him to the emperor, and let the emperor decide his life and death." Xiang Nan instructed Pei Zhao.
Keeping King Tiedar alive is actually better than killing him.
Firstly, offering captives at the Meridian Gate was the supreme event in the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is intended to demonstrate the unworldly martial arts of a great country, to deter the small people from all over the world, so that they dare not easily touch the power of the celestial dynasty;
Secondly, there are only 100,000 old and weak women and children left in Dan Chi, and King Tiedar has become a bare prince, even if he is alive, he will not be able to cause any disturbances. And if he spared his life, it would also make Qu Xiaofeng hate himself less.
Three times, keep Tiedar King's life, the truth about the prince's assassination, and the trick of raising the bandits' self-respect can be told to the emperor at that time.
Of course Gao Xian and Li Chengye will most likely kill this job, but then it has nothing to do with Xiang Nan. As long as he didn't kill him, Qu Xiaofeng couldn't hate himself.
Pei Zhao listened and nodded.
Knowing that King Tiedar is related to the truth about the assassination of the prince, there is nothing wrong with it.
…
Xiang Nan waved his hand again, detained all the Danchi people, and began to clean up the battlefield, taking stock of gains and losses.
During the period, he noticed that Qu Xiaofeng was not in Danchi Wang's tent, and guessed that Gu Jian had already taken her away before the start of the battle, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
An hour later, the coalition forces of Shuobo and Fengchao finally defeated the main force of Danchi, and then Li Chengye led the army straight to the tent of King Danchi.
But when he arrived, he was surprised to find that King Danchi's tent had been captured by Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao, King Tiedar had been captured alive, the people of Danchi tribe had been imprisoned, and even the battlefield had been cleaned.
"Fifth brother, why are you here?" Li Chengye looked at Xiang Nan and asked in shock.
Because he was too angry, he could hardly control his expression, his face was ferocious, his facial features were distorted, and he wished he could kill someone.
Captured King Danchi’s tent and captured King Tiedar alive. Xiang Nan took such a great achievement, he was really not reconciled.
"It was the last general who was eager to make contributions, and urged the fifth prince to send troops, begging the prince to come down." Pei Zhao cupped his hands, wanting to take the blame on himself.
"Second Brother, Eldest Brother has always treated me kindly, I still want to avenge Eldest Brother with my own hands." Xiang Nan explained, "That's why I led the army to kill him. If there is something beyond the rules, I implore Second Brother to forgive me."
Seeing that they spoke sincerely, Li Chengye pleaded guilty to all of them, but in fact he was helpless.
No matter how angry he is, they also brought down the tent of King Danchi, and they also captured King Tiedar. If he not only failed to show merit, but punished them instead, the entire army would not accept it.
"Fifth Brother, what are you talking about? My brother is only worried about being on the battlefield. Swords and guns have no eyes, and I'm afraid that something will happen to you. Since you are fine, I am relieved." Li Chengye said immediately.
"Second Brother, thank you for your concern." Xiang Nan cupped his hands, "Second Brother, King Tiedar has been captured now. I hope he will be escorted to Beijing, and his father will send him down.
One is to demonstrate the martial arts of our great country and deter Siyi Xiaoxiao; secondly, he is the real culprit in the assassination of the emperor's brother, and he should also be sent to Jingming's canonical punishment. "
Li Chengye was shocked when he heard it.
If King Tiedar was sent to Beijing, as long as he was interrogated by the three divisions, he would know that the prince was not killed by Danchi people. At that time, the emperor will re-investigate the real culprit, and he and Li Feng will most likely be exposed.
Therefore, King Tiedar must not enter Beijing.
"Okay, fifth brother's suggestion is very good. If that's the case, leave it to me." Li Chengye said to Xiang Nan.
Seeing that he did not object, Li Chengye was taken aback for a moment, and began to wonder if there was something tricky in it.
"King Tiedar has so many enemies, so many people must want to kill him. I'm really afraid that I won't be able to see him. I'll be relieved to leave it to my second brother." Xiang Nan explained with a smile.
Li Chengye's face suddenly collapsed.
It is true that King Tiedar has his own guard, so it is convenient for him to get rid of him. But once something happened to King Tiedar, he was also the first person responsible, and he was also the first person to be suspected. Everyone would suspect that he was guarding himself and stealing, killing people to silence him.
No wonder Xiang Nan didn't object at all, and agreed so happily. It turned out that it had been planned long ago, and he deliberately dug a big hole for himself. And he was so stupid, how could he make such a big mistake.
Pei Zhao was also very surprised to see that Xiang Nan handed over King Tidar.
But now after hearing his explanation, Pei Zhao suddenly realized. If it weren't for his seriousness, he would almost laugh out loud.
King Tiedar is simply a hot potato to Li Chengye. It was inappropriate to **** him to Beijing, but it was also inappropriate to kill him.
It was like a thorn in the throat, like a thorn in the back, like sitting on pins and needles, and some of them felt uncomfortable.
…
"Mr. Chai~" Xiang Nan then met Chai Mu again.
"Congratulations to the fifth prince for his extraordinary achievements." Chai Mu cupped his hands.
"Thank you, Mr. Chai, for your assistance." Xiang Nan said gratefully, "It wasn't Mr. Chai who sent Qianlong Envoy to secretly poison Dan Chi's war horse. This battle will definitely not go so smoothly."
"It's a trivial matter, nothing to worry about." Chai Mu waved his hand.
"By the way, where is cousin now, can Princess Jiu be by his side?" Xiang Nan asked again with concern.
"Don't worry, the fifth prince. Before the war started, Jian'er had already taken the ninth princess away." Chai Mu said confidently, "I have already made an appointment with him, and I should be able to meet him tomorrow morning."
Xiang Nan nodded when he heard this.
Although Gu Jian was unreliable in doing things, he was sincere to Qu Xiaofeng. Qu Xiaofeng followed him, nothing would happen.
"The fifth prince handed over King Tiedar to the second prince. It was a good move." Chai Mu said again.
"King Tiedar is a hot potato, since he wants it, then give it to him." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "By the way, Mr. Chai, have you sent someone to notify King Shuobo?"
"A notification has been sent." Chai Mu nodded.
"That's good." Xiang Nan laughed.
…
When the sky turned around, Li Chengye ordered Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao to stay in Danchi and take charge of suppressing the remaining 100,000 clansmen in Danchi. The rest of the army returned to Anhu Mansion in the Western Territory.
The reason why he withdrew his troops so quickly was because Li Feng was unfortunately injured on the battlefield. His condition was very serious and he urgently needed to return to Beijing for treatment. Therefore, he didn't even care about cleaning the battlefield and dividing up the benefits, so he had to take people back first.
It can be seen from this that the relationship between him and Li Feng is really extraordinary.
Li Chengye also brought King Tiedar, generals of Dan Chi, and wizards and other high-level officials.
Presenting captives in the palace, such a grand event that shows his face, he wants to enjoy it alone, and he will not let Xiang Nan and Pei Zhao share his glory.
Xiang Nan understood what he was thinking, and didn't want to rob him.
Anyway, in Xizhou, he still has a lot to do.
