Chapter 2074 The princess who escaped death (86)
Furthermore, the Jiao family is considered to be on the prince's side and has a hostile relationship with them. In his heart, he wished that the two men named Jiao died on the border. If possible, he didn't want to send food and grass there, so he might as well starve to death.
Of course, Chen Hongyu did not dare to do this blatantly.
However, if there are any force majeure factors encountered along the way, causing the delivery of food and grass to be delayed, or even something happens to him, it will not be his fault.
Chen Yuantao had no idea that Chen Hongyu was secretly planning this matter in private.
Chen Hongyu didnt know that all his actions were controlled under Qian Yans eyes.
He really imagined that the entire army transporting grain and grass was robbed by bandits, and he was also kidnapped.
"The bandit dared to rob food and grass. It shows that he is not afraid of the court. How could he kidnap him? He must have been killed directly and then robbed of food and grass." Qian Yan said.
Gong Yuhuai immediately understood: "I understand, Your Highness, Chen Hongyu was robbed and killed by bandits on the way to transport grain and grass."
Wonderful! Hahaha.
Chen Hongyu, under Chen Yuantao's repeated instructions, set out to transport grain and grass to avoid accidents. He chose a place far away from Nanling to rob the grain and grass.
This became the decision that cost him his life.
Half a month later, news that Chen Hongyu was robbed and killed by bandits while escorting grain and grass reached the capital, and Chen Yuantao fainted from grief.
After waking up, he first suspected that someone was targeting his Chen family, and the most likely one was the Gongyu family.
Not long after, he almost vomited blood in anger after learning the truth from people around Chen Hongyu.
He thought that someone was setting him up, but he never thought that it was his unlucky son's plan that had him in trouble.
Chen Yuantao, who originally vowed to investigate further, became depressed. If the prince and the Manchu Dynasty knew the truth, the Chen family would also get into trouble and be criticized.
Chen Yuantao always feels that life is getting harder and harder, as if he is unable to do anything.
In the court hall, Chen Yuantao asked the court to send troops to suppress the mountain bandits in righteous words. He did not mention Chen Hongyu at all, but only said that the bandits had committed a taboo and criticized them.
Qian Yan fulfilled his wish and arranged for two of his men to go over and suppress the bandits to make a contribution. Qian Yan still let Chen Yuantao arrange the matter of food and grass, and said: "My father's most trusted person is the Grand Master."
Chen Yuantao was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Is this trust? This is simply because he wants something to happen to him.
He has lost a son for this matter. Does he dare to do anything with food and grass?
Ye Gong is so abominable.
(Ye Gong: I was almost paralyzed with anger.)
A few months later, the imperial court received good news from the border.
Jiao Changyu and Jiao Hui's attacking methods of one light and one dark drove the Waba country deep into the grassland.
The people of the Waba Kingdom harassed the people on the border of Dai Viet. Jiao Changyu suppressed them openly, while Jiao Hui secretly led a team of highly skilled soldiers to find their tribe, carried out sneak attacks, and marked them along the way.
After the Waba Kingdom was attacked by surprise, they were still going to be attacked by Jiao Changyu. There was no time to harass the people on the border and they were all busy running for their lives.
At this time, the peace negotiation party in the DPRK proposed to surrender the Waba Kingdom and make offerings to Dai Viet in the future.
Qianyan ignored them. The Waba country was so poor and those people were so shameless. They agreed to pay tribute, but they didn't pay the tribute. Do they want to fight again?
My fathers intention is to defeat them directly.
My father said that their place is too poor and they dont have much good things to offer, so its better to crush them in one fell swoop, just to kill the chickens and scare the monkeys.
(Ye Gong: Yes, yes, its all what I said.)
Haha, I sympathize with Ye Gong for a second.
Ye Gong: There are so many pots, I really cant carry them.
Some small countries on the border of Dai Viet were originally very restless, and there were always frictions. It was just that the Waba country was more arrogant than other small countries.
Another two months passed, and the Waba Kingdom was beaten by Jiao Changyu and Jiao Hui until it was declared disbanded.
Jiao Changyu and Jiao Hui collected all their weapons and returned to the court to receive their rewards. The two of them became prominent in the court.
With Qian Yan presiding over the court, Ye Gong has not been doing well. Chen Yuantao suddenly realized that the Crown Prince was not stupid.
