Chapter Forty-Eight: Goodbye Cause "Your Highness, you must save me, your subordinates don't want to die."
Thinking of the fate he might face in the future, Fang Yi's anxious white hair sweat came out, and as for the joy of victory, he was thrown out of the Nine Heavens - with such a heavy loss, where is there any joy to speak of?
I don't have the face to celebrate, but now it's still important to save my life.
"It's okay, you don't have to worry, in the final analysis, this matter is still the fault of the palace, and in the face of the accountability of the imperial court, you only need to push the problem onto the palace."
Li Zhen is very righteous and generous, and plans to carry the black pot for Fang Yiai.
"Don't ......
Then forget it, this matter has nothing to do with His Royal Highness at all, after all, you have been sleeping during the war, and your subordinates will complain to the court about this matter and ask for punishment.
Fang Yiai smiled bitterly and took the initiative to carry the black cauldron, but this time he was willing to carry the black cauldron - as I said before, not everyone in this world is qualified to carry the black pot for Li Zhen, but he can carry the pot for Li Zhen twice, which is enough to prove his extraordinary, at least the three Duhe are also Li Zhen's henchmen, but they have never carried the pot for him once, which has proved the status of his Fang Yiai in Li Zhen's heart.
"No, what Bengu said is true, you can really push things onto Hongu."
Li Zhen was a little helpless, why couldn't she say it clearly?
There is also Fang Yiai, who is usually the smartest person, why hasn't he reacted now?
"No, Your Highness, this matter is the responsibility of his subordinates after all, and it is not a gentleman's work to pass the blame to others."
Fang Yiai said righteously, but his heart was very thorough, this matter must not be done according to Li Zhen's wishes.
Of course, he guessed that Li Zhen's move must have other plans, but he couldn't agree to this matter, this pot can only be carried by him, otherwise if he really throws the matter to Li Zhen, not only will his own conscience be uneasy, but it will also be bad for his future development - although he will be reprimanded by the court for Li Zhen, but it is just a reprimand, at most he will be beaten (and this beating is still family law, and the court cannot beat him for this trivial matter, After all, Fang Yiai handled this matter well), and the imperial court would not remove itself because of this matter.
But if the matter is pushed on Li Zhen's head, then everything will be over, so that he can indeed be exempted from this punishment, but what are the consequences of doing so?
Not only will others laugh at and look down on him, but he may also be hated by Li Zhen - although at present, Li Zhen should not do this.
But people change, what about the future?
Li Zhen is still only a prince, and the days will be long in the future, who knows what Li Zhen will become in the future?
What if you are not favored in the future?
Li Zhen remembered today's events again, would he still remember that he took the initiative to ask for himself?
There is no guarantee that he will settle accounts after the fall.
Therefore, for the sake of his own future, today's events must not go against Li Zhen's wishes, this pot - my mother's bereaved love has been decided......
"Why are you doing this?"
Li Zhen also roughly understood Fang Yiai's plan, and couldn't help but shake her head helplessly: "Forget it, since that's the case, then let it be." ” Although Fang Yiai has his own careful thoughts, he is also carrying the black pot for himself after all, seeing that he is so resolute, Li Zhen can only obey his wishes, as for his own pot, anyway, the inspection of the four seas has just begun, and there will be opportunities to find it slowly in the future.
"By the way, after this big battle, the underworld personnel have escaped a lot, right?"
Li Zhen remembered one thing again, this Zhong left the city as soon as he rebelled, it can be said that he made a mess of his own arrangement, and the defenders who were originally guarding the various exits were also captured or killed, and there were no defenders at the exit, and those terrified underworld personnel who had already been killed by themselves had to all escape, right?
"This is exactly what my subordinates want to say to His Highness."
A smile suddenly appeared on Fang Yiai's face: "Although Zhongli City's betrayal caused the major exits to be lost, what we lost was the rest of the part that connected to the fourth, and the ones who guarded the other areas still didn't move at all - this also led to the fact that although the door was lost, few of those scum escaped." ” "I see, Hongu understands."
Li Zhen only thought about it for a moment and understood the reason.
The reason is very simple, because the rebels are attacking from Area 4, and although their attack has caused all the exits in this part to be lost, don't forget, there are still battles here, guns and bullets are flying everywhere, even those scum have the courage to cross the battlefield at such a time.
What's more, those underworld people are all unruly, and they don't live together, if they are allowed to scatter and flee, it will inevitably affect the actions of the rebels in the escape, even if Zhongli City doesn't know the rules of the battlefield, it is impossible to let these scum walk through their own battlefields at this time - this is not only not responsible for the lives of their own soldiers, but those scum are more likely to affect their battlefield layout, resulting in the defeat of the entire battle.
So even if Zhongli Cheng had the intention to let these scumbags go, it would definitely not be now, but after winning the war and capturing Li Zhen alive - of course, if Li Zhen had been captured by that time, it would be meaningless for them to escape or not.
"Alright, you can get out." got what she wanted, Li Zhen waved her hand and began to drive people away.
"Yes, Your Highness rest, and your subordinates will retire."
Fang Yiai didn't lie here, at this time the war had just ended, as the supreme governor of Luzon, he still had a lot of things to deal with, and now he was able to come over to see Li Zhen It was already time to squeeze out, and now seeing that Li Zhen was fine, he got up and retired.
However, Li Zhen didn't rest for long, because as soon as he closed his eyes, Cheng Chuliang walked in again: "I've seen Your Highness, and my subordinates have something to report." ” Li Zhen had no choice but to open her eyes again: "What's the matter?"
” "There are a few people who want to see you, saying they are acquaintances."
"Well, it's indeed an acquaintance of the palace, you let them in."
Li Zhen showed a meaningful smile on her face: I haven't seen you for more than ten years, are you okay?
"Yes."
Although he was curious, Cheng Chuliang didn't ask much - don't ask about things that shouldn't be asked, this is a necessary criterion for being a subordinate.
Cheng Chuliang soon came in again, this time with three people behind him.
"Poof!"
Ben Yin and Creevey immediately knelt down when they saw Li Zhen: "Your Highness, the slave maid has seen Your Highness, I haven't seen him for more than ten years, Your Highness is still fine......
Halfway through the conversation, the two of them couldn't stop crying.

At this time, Li Zhen also wanted to cry, but his current identity did not allow him to cry, so he could only hold back his tears and said movingly: "I'm very good, but it's you, Ben Yin, Creevey, you have been deep in the desert for more than ten years for me, all the way to the wind and frost sword, Jin Ge Iron Horse, nine deaths and one life, it can be said that you have made outstanding achievements, and you are the hardest." ” "To serve His Highness, the slave and maid don't feel bitter."
Ben Yin and Creevey have never regarded themselves as Li Zhen's subordinates, but regard themselves as his domestic servants, so they only call themselves slaves, even if they haven't seen each other for more than ten years, this has not changed at all.
"Creevey's life was saved by His Highness, if it weren't for His Highness, the slave would have died twenty years ago, and there would be no more today's scenery, so it is appropriate to die for His Highness."
Creevey raised his head and said: "On the contrary, Your Highness, you were only a few years old when the slave maid left His Highness, but now you have grown like this, and you have done so many great things, the southern and northern wars, after the slaves and maids heard about Your Highness's deeds, they were also happy for Your Highness in their hearts." ” "Let's get up."
Li Zhen helped the three of them up, and asked with some disappointment, "Where is Aya?"
Why didn't she come along?
” The third person is not Aya, but Luo Lin, the second generation of Li Zhen's mercenary corps of Tingfeng, who was erased by Li Zhen from all his official positions because he made a big mistake, and then threw him into the wind, planning to sharpen him with a cruel mercenary battlefield.
And he didn't disappoint Li Zhen, through his own efforts, he reached the point where he is today - it can be seen from here that Li Zhen's vision of people is still very powerful, at least the people he promoted are very loyal to him, and there are rarely bullshit things such as apostasy or betrayal, even if he is belittled, he basically doesn't hold a grudge against him, even Zhonglicheng's rebellion is just to protect himself, and he doesn't think about taking refuge in other people's forces or something.
"This, before coming, Princess Aya suddenly received a message, and then left in a hurry, we can't stop it."
Ben Yin knew the relationship between Li Zhen and Aya, but Li Zhen was the master, and he couldn't say anything about this kind of thing, so he could only report it truthfully.
"Forget it, tell me about your experiences over the years."
Although Li Zhen was a little disappointed, it was not easy to express her position at this time, so she could only change the topic to a more relaxed topic.
"Yes, the slave has been ...... with Creevey since she received orders from His Highness."
Ben Yin began to tell his experience over the years, in which they encountered all kinds of difficulties, including illness, disability, bullying by the locals, betrayal and sacrifice, etc., of course, interspersed with some light things - in fact, Li Zhen has understood these things very clearly through Tingfeng, after all, Tingfeng is the intelligence organization of Tingfeng mercenaries, and the head of this organization is directly responsible to Li Zhen, and Li Zhen's understanding of Tingfeng is actually clear.
But after all, intelligence is just information, it is cold words and numbers, far from listening to the detailed and emotional explanation of the person concerned, if you want to really understand everything about listening to the wind, you still need to tell it in person.
After Ben Yin finished telling, the sky was already dark, and he only selected important things to report, after all, it was more than ten years of experience, if you want to say everything in detail, I am afraid it will take three days and three nights to finish.
"You've worked hard all these years."
After Li Zhen heard this, he was greatly moved: "You are also old, don't be a mercenary in the future, just follow me - as for your merits, I can't promise you anything now, but I promise that I will give you a satisfactory answer for a year at most." ” Ben Yin and Creevey didn't understand the meaning of Li Zhen's words, and Luo Lin next to him was in his heart: If according to Ben Yin and Creevey's merits, if they were doing things for the country, these merits alone would be enough to make them knighted.
It's a pity that they are working for Li Zhen, although Li Zhen is the crown prince, he also controls the territory of the Tang Dynasty south of Lingnan, and he can appoint and dismiss officials at will, but the title is different from the official position, there are many officials in the Tang Dynasty, but there are not many people who really have the title, most of them are meritorious ministers who followed Gaozu and the current saint to fight the world, since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there are very few people who can be knighted by exception, only less than dozens of people.
That is to say, although Li Zhen is qualified to appoint and remove officials, it is the emperor's right to be knighted, even if he is the crown prince, he does not have this qualification, unless he rebels or ascends the throne to become the emperor.
Li Zhen's situation is very good now, and it is impossible to rebel, so there is only one way to ascend the throne......
Just why would it be a year?
Don't......
Rollin didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Hearing Li Zhen's promise, Ben Yin shook his head with a smile and said: "To serve His Highness, the slave maid has never had the luxury of rewarding, to be honest, the slave and maid can establish such a big and fast signboard of the mercenary army with the support of His Royal Highness, the slave and maid are already satisfied, and there is no other luxury, as long as His Royal Highness can use the wind well, the slave and maid will have no regrets." ” "What about you?
Creevey?
Do you have any requirements?
Li Zhen didn't say anything about Ben Yin's statement, but set her eyes on Creevey.
"The subordinates are the same as Ben Yin, but the material rewards are no longer needed, so Your Highness should keep the money for training warriors......
But if you want to ask for it, there really is one slave.
"To everyone's surprise, they thought that Creevey would give up the reward like Ben Cause, but who would have thought that he would actually ask for it.
"Creevey, you're being presumptuous."
Because of the anger, the prince asked you to make a request, do you really dare to climb along the pole?
You can't take yourself too seriously, right?
"It's fine."
Li Zhen hurriedly stopped Ben Yin: "Since I asked you to make a request, it is naturally sincere, since Creevey has a need, let's talk about it." ” "Yes, His Highness's reward slave maid is not daring to ask for it, but the slave maid does have a small request."
When Creevey said this, a trace of pain and hatred flashed on his face: "The origin of the slave should have been told to His Highness. ” "Nature."
Li Zhen nodded and said, the three slaves he bought back at the beginning, he had investigated the details of the three of them in detail - even if Li Zhen didn't investigate, as a father, Li Shimin would also investigate the people around his son clearly, especially people like Ben Yin Aya Krivi, who had to investigate thoroughly to make people feel at ease, and the final result also made Li Zhen and Li Shimin very satisfied, although these three people are not innocent, but the origin is still very clear, and it is not the internal response sent by the enemy to Li Zhen's side.
