Looking After a Battle God With Hundreds of Billions in Supplies Chapter 268

  Chapter 268 Condemnation

  Chu State, in the imperial palace of the capital.

  The battle report on the frontier was sent to the king of Chu again.

  The king of Chu State heard that he was defeated again, and the veins on his forehead twitched violently.

   "It's been more than half a month since the war started, and we fought several times, big and small, but didn't win even once! What's going on here?"

   Facing Emperor Kang Ze's roar, all the ministers dared not say a word. Whoever speaks at this time is pure cannon fodder and sent to spray.

   "How many defenders are there now?"

   "Back to the emperor, there are 100,000 defenders."

  Emperor Kang Ze walked two steps on the dragon chair with his hands behind his back and said, "Where is the southern country?"

   "Your Majesty, the defenders in the Southern Kingdom are similar to ours, and we haven't found any reinforcements from the Southern Kingdom."

   "The opponent didn't send any reinforcements, why can't you even win a single battle? How did you make the soldiers and horses of the Southern Kingdom retreat steadily?"

  As soon as Emperor Kang Ze yelled out these words, no one dared to say anything. Everyone present did not know that it was the Qi Wang Xiao Jin who was able to win successive victories back then.

   But now... no one knows whether King Qi died in the Northern Wilderness.

  Emperor Kang Ze naturally thought of it too, but he didn't believe it, he couldn't find another strong general like Xiao Jin in such a big Chu country.

   "Lian Shen, you go, and then mobilize 20,000 soldiers and horses from the West Camp to go to reinforcements. We will set off tomorrow, and we must fight back to the Southern Kingdom!"

  In the main hall, a mighty general came out to lead the order, "This humble minister must live up to the emperor's entrustment."

  After the court, the courtiers left the palace one after another.

  Xiao Jue walked behind Lian Shen, "General Lian."

  Lian Shen paused slightly and looked at Xiao Jue, "Your Highness."

  Xiao Jue looked at Lian Shen with a serious expression and said: "General Lian is going here, and he must come back after victory."

  Lian Shen said solemnly with a tense face: "Don't worry, Your Highness, the general will definitely do his best in the end."

  Lian Shen was a lieutenant general who followed Xiao Jin before, and later he returned to Beijing to receive the reward and stayed in Beijing to serve. He had been on Xiao Jue's team earlier.

  Xiao Jueruyi made a good plan. As long as Lian Shen wins, he will take the opportunity to write a letter asking him to take over the 100,000 military power on the border, and then he will have a key bargaining chip to win the position!

  Xiao Jue was very confident. Chu State had 20,000 extra soldiers and horses. It would be no problem at all to win with more.

   What he, and even Emperor Kang Ze, did not expect was that Nanguo broke through the border city of Chu State and took a city of Chu State.

  This military newspaper made Emperor Kang Ze directly expose the dragon case.

   "This is my good general!"

  120,000 people faced hundreds of thousands of people, and a city was directly killed. Emperor Kang Ze couldn't help but get angry!

  At this time, an abrupt voice suddenly sounded in the silent hall.

   "Before the southern country sent an additional 200,000 troops, Xiao Jin had less than 150,000 troops. Didn't he still take down two cities in the southern country... Hey."

  At that moment, the hall was so quiet that a needle could be heard falling.

  All the ministers lowered their heads, pretending to be dead.

  The young minister who spoke did not realize that he had said the wrong thing, his narrow peach eyes were full of bewilderment and doubt, "Your Majesty, my minister... did you say the wrong thing?"

"boom!"

  Emperor Wude smashed an inkstone over, waved his big hand, turned around and left the hall.

   "Retire..."

  As soon as Emperor Kang Ze left, all the ministers let out a deep breath, the emperor is really... so scary!

   "Master Zhu, you are still too young."

  An old and kind-hearted minister walked up to Zhu Lin and shook his head, "Stop talking nonsense from now on. The emperor didn't punish you today. Next time, you may not be so lucky."

  Zhu Lin looked taught, "Thank you, Mr. Wang, for reminding me, I will definitely pay attention next time, but... I don't know what I said wrong?"

   Lord Wang choked.

   "Lord Zhu, the emperor asked you to go to the imperial study."

  Master Wang gave Zhu Lin a self-conscious look, shook his head and walked away very quickly.

  Zhu Lin was overwhelmed with flattery. What is the emperor's study room? It's the high ground of the Chu State Cabinet. How can he, a small doctor of the Ministry of punishment, go there.

  Zhu Lin came to the imperial study room full of excitement.

  Emperor Kang Ze turned his back to the door and remained silent for a long time.

  It wasn't until Zhu Lin's legs went numb from standing that Emperor Kang Ze turned to look at him, "Did you handle the treason case of King Qi before?"

  Zhu Linxiu's white and weak face was full of seriousness, "Back to the emperor, strictly speaking, this case was handled by the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, and the lower officials are responsible for some finishing tasks."

   "The official responsible for sending people to the Northern Wilderness, let him come to see me."

   "Your Majesty, the official sent back to his hometown after delivering that errand."

   "Then Xiao Jin, was you sent to the Northern Wilderness?"

   "Yes, sent out."

  Emperor Kang Ze twisted again, "I said earlier that I would reverse the case for Xiao Jin, find it for me."

  Zhu Lin was taken aback, "Your Majesty, if you want to reverse the case of the guilty minister Xiao Jin, isn't that case solid evidence? There are all witnesses and material evidence? It is not so easy to reverse this case."

  Director Ouchi dug out a dusty notebook from somewhere and presented it to Emperor Kang Ze, "Your Majesty, here is the notebook."

  Emperor Kang Ze threw the notebook in front of Zhu Lin, "Check out the people who signed the joint performance, if there is no problem, let them go, let them go back to where they came from, and let them go to the hall to thank you before going back."

  Zhu Lin picked up the notebook, "Yes, I obey the order."

   "Back off."

   "The minister resigns."

Zhu Lin's work efficiency is very high. In just three days, he found out the generals who jointly signed the letter, and confirmed that they did not commit any other crimes except requesting the emperor to re-investigate Xiao Jin's case. After three days, they were arrested. Released from prison.

   On the day they were released, those generals knelt outside the main political hall, saying that they wanted to thank the emperor.

  Emperor Kang Ze was benevolent and let them enter the palace.

  Who knows, after these generals thanked them, they brought up Xiao Jin's case again in front of civil and military officials, shouting that Xiao Jin was wronged.

  Everyone was waiting for Emperor Kang Ze to be furious, but Emperor Kang Ze did not say anything for a long time.

   "At the beginning, who decided the case?" Kang Zedi said quietly.

  Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment tremblingly came out, "Your Majesty, the case of Xiao Jin's treason was settled in the hands of this humble minister."

Emperor Kang Ze frowned, "The case that was broken in your hands, why are there still so many people complaining for Xiao Jin, are you sure that the whole case has been investigated clearly? Dare to use your head as a guarantee, Xiao Jin Didn't Jhin be wronged?"

  Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment almost cried, and almost shouted, this case is the final decision of your majesty!

  Master Shangshu feels wronged, but dare not speak out.

   "Your Majesty, I must re-examine all the evidence... Make sure again."

"Since the case is in doubt, Xiao Jin's charges are open to question. Immediately send a letter to Lian Shen. I want him to send someone to the Northern Wilderness to find Xiao Jin's whereabouts. Tell him that I will give him a chance to pay for his crimes." If he can repel the Southern Kingdom and recover the damaged cities of the Chu Kingdom, I will allow him to return to the capital and return to his original post."
