Chapter 125 Rong Che borrows troops
Shen Rou came to the military doctor's tent and saw Shen Xue busy changing the dressings for the injured soldiers. "Sister, you have something to talk to me about."
"You are busy, I will leave first."
Shen Xue replied while busying herself: "Sister, I'll come find you when I'm done."
"it is good."
After leaving the tent, Shen Rou saw Leng Jun and Leng Xin standing at the door. She said to them, "Leng Jun, tell Xiao Xue that Prince Mu and I are going out for something. Tell her not to worry about me."
"Yes."
At this time, Shangguan Yunting came over and said, "After the war, Xiaoxue was so busy that she didn't even have time to eat and talk to you."
"I've already told Leng Jun to tell Xiaoxue."
"Let's go!"
They mounted their horses and, along with ten guards, left the military camp and galloped along a shortcut towards Jizhou.
After chasing for two days without seeing any signs of the Northern Yan army's retreat, Shen Rou wondered, "Did the Second Prince of Northern Yan not retreat to Jizhou? Why is there no trace of him at all?"
"The spies reported that they were retreating towards Jizhou. Didn't they come to Jizhou?"
"Han Lin, send someone to investigate. We'll be waiting for you here."
"I obey my orders."
An hour later, Han Lin returned and reported, "Master, the Second Prince of Northern Yan bypassed Jizhou and headed for Julu City."
Shen Rou asked curiously: "Why did he go to Julu?"
"He has an uncle who is the governor of Julu and has 50,000 soldiers under his command."
"It seems he is still unwilling to give up and plans to borrow troops from his uncle to make a comeback."
"He just couldn't accept that he had lost so completely."
"Go to Julu."
"Yes."
A dozen people turned their horses around and headed towards Julu.
Rong Che retreated all the way with 70,000 to 80,000 defeated soldiers. As he walked, he thought that if he went back like this, he would not be able to explain to his father, and he would be laughed at by the ministers and his good brothers.
After thinking for a long time, he decided to go to Julu to borrow troops from his uncle. If he could capture Youzhou, his father might be so happy that he would make him the crown prince.
"Jingyu, pass the order down to Julu."
"I obey my orders."
After several days of travel, we finally arrived outside Julu City.
"General Gu, order the soldiers to rest here. This prince has business to attend to in the city."
General Gu hesitated as he looked at Rong Che, "Second Prince, many of the soldiers are injured and frightened. It would be better for them to set up camp in Julu to recuperate and return to Yanjing after their injuries have healed."
"My elite troops of Northern Yan are not afraid of death, so why should we be afraid of a minor injury? How could we be frightened by the enemy's weapons? If you go out, don't claim to be my soldier. I can't afford to lose this person."
"And when did this prince say he would return to Yanjing?"
"What if I don't return to Yanjing?"
Rong Che said firmly, "I will go and borrow soldiers. After I get them, I will return to Youzhou and avenge the fallen soldiers. I will never return until I have avenged them."
General Gu said worriedly, "Second Prince, the enemy's weapons are too powerful and we have no chance to counter them. Why don't we go back and make further plans later?"
"As a soldier, how can he be afraid of death? Shangguan Yunting only relies on his weapon, but there will be a time when he will run out of it. Without it, he is nothing."
"Second Prince, we can send someone to steal the weapon's formula. With the weapon, the two armies will be evenly matched, and our chances of victory will be great."
"good idea."
He quickly ordered Jingyu to send someone to the Youzhou military camp to steal the formula of the bomb.
He then took his guards to the residence of Governor Yu, where the housekeeper quickly welcomed him to the main hall and servants served him tea.
"Master, the Second Prince is here."
"What about people?"
"In the main hall, there are servants waiting."
Governor Yu quickly stood up to greet her, and halfway through, he ordered, "Housekeeper, prepare some good wine and food, and have the young lady come over to accompany her."
"Yes."
When Governor Yu came to the main hall and saw the decadent look of the Second Prince, he was shocked. He had received news that the Second Prince had been defeated and came to Julu to find him, but he did not expect him to look like this.
"This humble general pays homage to the Second Prince."
"Uncle, you don't have to be so polite."
"Second Prince, etiquette and rules cannot be abolished."
After the governor exchanged a few pleasantries with the second prince, he asked about the war.
Rong Che exaggerated the story of the war and emphasized that if Shangguan Yunting had not cheated and had new weapons, he would not have been defeated.
As he was speaking, a woman slowly came over. She had a graceful figure and a beauty like a fairy.
She walked up to the Second Prince and bowed slightly, "Qingying, greetings, cousin."
Rong Che smiled, "My cousin is getting more and more beautiful."
Yu Qingying smiled shyly, "Thank you for the compliment, cousin."
The two sat down and had a pleasant conversation.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Rong Che looked at Governor Yu and explained his purpose, hoping that Governor Yu could lend him troops.
Governor Yu remained calm. He knew that Rong Che had suffered heavy losses in this defeat and the emperor would be furious. Lending troops to him at this time would undoubtedly be courting disaster.
But if he doesn't lend it, he is afraid of offending Rong Che. He also plans to marry his daughter to Rong Che as the prince's consort, and the future is promising... He decides to stabilize Rong Che first and then make long-term plans.
"Che'er, you know that military power can't be borrowed casually. You must have sufficient reasons and plans before I can trust you with the power."
Rong Che felt somewhat unhappy after hearing what Governor Yu said, but he did not show it.
"Uncle, don't worry! I already have a detailed battle plan, and the enemy will soon have new weapons. If you lend me your military power, I will definitely be able to capture Youzhou, and the position of Crown Prince will be within my grasp."
Governor Yu looked at Rong Che's determined eyes and finally made a decision in his heart.
He nodded. "Che'er, I believe in you. I'll lend you the military power, but you have to organize the troops in Julu before you can set out. After all, there have been too many casualties this time, and the soldiers are also injured. If they go to the battlefield without recovering from their injuries, they will undoubtedly be sending them to their deaths."
Rong Che was overjoyed after hearing what Governor Yu said. After all, he also had to wait for the weapon formula, and it was just right that he was resting his troops in Julu.
"Uncle is absolutely right."
"Just take good care of yourself in your uncle's house. When you're well, your uncle will personally hand over the military power to you."
"Thank you uncle."
Shangguan Yunting, Shen Rou and others also quietly entered Julu City. They quietly came to the "Tongjitang" pharmacy from the back door. When Manager Wang saw Shangguan Yunting, he knelt down and saluted.
"See Master."
"Manager Wang, please don't be polite."
"Master, why didn't you inform me in advance when you came to Julu?"
"The King is here temporarily."
Shangguan Yunting introduced: "Shopkeeper Wang, come and meet the Princess of Furong County."
"This subordinate greets the Princess of Furong County."
"Hello, Shopkeeper Wang."
"Send someone to find out where the Second Prince of Beiyan is now."
"I obey my orders."
"Master, have you had lunch?"
"No."
"I'll go arrange the meal right away. Are there any dietary restrictions?"
Shangguan Yunting listed a few dishes to Shopkeeper Wang, and asked them to be lighter. Shen Rou felt touched when she heard that they were all her favorite dishes.
She looked at Shangguan Yunting and said, "Do you still remember what I like to eat?"
Shangguan Yunting looked at Shen Rou tenderly and said softly, "I remember everything about you."
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"You have a pharmacy in Beiyan's territory. That's amazing."
Shangguan Yunting raised his lips when he heard Shen Rou praising him. "I opened medicine shops in various countries just to spread the news."
"How do you manage so many pharmacies?"
"I don't need to take care of it. I'll leave one place to a trustworthy shopkeeper, and then there's a general shopkeeper to manage and prepare the herbs. He just needs to report the profits and news to me."
"If he embezzles money from it, you won't know."
"Employ people with confidence, and don't employ people you doubt. The chief stewards are all people I can trust."
"After we are married, I will have them come to pay their respects to you, and then I will give you the accounts and profits for safekeeping."
Shen Rou joked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll run away with the money?"
"It's okay. Even if you run away with the child, I can still catch you."
Shen Rou glared at Shangguan Yunting and said, "Shut up. Aren't you ashamed of saying these things when your probation period hasn't even ended yet?"
"Even when she's angry she's so cute."
Shen Rou rolled her eyes and muttered softly, "Psycho! Your whole family is cute, but I'm going for the mature route..."
"Xiao Rou, how long is my probation period?"
"It depends on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, I can become a regular employee at any time. If I'm not in a good mood, you'll always be in the use period."
Shangguan Yunting smiled dotingly and quickly poured her some tea. Worried that it might be too hot, he blew on it a few times and then fed it to Shen Rou himself.
"In order to get a permanent position faster, I'm starting to flatter you now."
Shen Rou took a sip of tea and said, "Well, not bad. Keep up the good work."
Shangguan Yunting said lovingly: "Naughty..."
More than a dozen guards were standing at the door listening to their conversation, and each of them was almost injured from holding it in. This was really a case of one thing conquering another. The unruly master was now being controlled by the Lady of Furong County. No one would believe it if she told others about it.
How would the Empress Dowager and the Emperor feel if they saw their master obeying and complying with Princess Furong's every word?
At this time, Shopkeeper Wang came in with food, "Master, Princess Furong, the food is here, please enjoy it."
After saying that, Shopkeeper Wang left the room.
Shangguan Yunting picked up some dishes for Shen Rou and said softly, "Eat more. You haven't eaten well in these days."
Shen Rou smiled slightly, lowered her head and started eating.
The two of them ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
