Chapter 1060

With soldiers, he has enough prestige, if there are any demon moths here in the Tang Imperial Capital, it will be too stupid. （.. ）

"But why didn't Your Majesty go south directly at this time, and now with the great victory, go straight to the imperial capital, then the world will be in the palm of your hand." Zhang Jiuling stroked his long beard and asked a little uncertainly.

"Presumably, Your Majesty still needs to rectify the soldiers and horses, although a hearty victory was obtained, so that the 170,000 Qihu army returned in vain, although the loss of my Tang soldiers and horses is not much, but the problem is that the long-term rush battle, so far I am afraid that it has also reached the end of the strong crossbow, so we must rest and recuperate, before going south. Brother Jiuling should not forget, in the area of Xu County, there is still a big trouble, waiting for His Majesty to solve it. Zhao Zhongxian stroked his long beard and explained.

"This is also, now, my biggest worry in Datang is Cao Hu'er's dog thief, if this thief is not eliminated, it will be difficult for Datang to have peace." After thinking about it, Zhang Jiuling nodded thoughtfully.

"However, even if Her Royal Highness the Princess becomes Her Majesty the Empress, I am afraid that she will not dare to attack Cao Hu'er easily...... Alas, the road of Tianli and Renlun...... It's not that easy to solve. Ximen Zhongxiong frowned, his face tangled.

Hearing this, Zhang Jiuling and Zhao Zhongxian, who originally seemed relaxed, couldn't help but nod their heads thoughtfully. Indeed, it's a fucking dead end. As long as the Son of Heaven is alive for a day, no matter how much Her Majesty the Empress is bullish, at most he will continue to trap Cao Hu'er's soldiers and horses in the area of Xu County.

"Is the news confirmed?" Duan Shaojun raised his head from the front of the public case, raised his eyebrows, looked at Xu Qing in front of him and asked in a deep voice.

"Xiao really can't be sure if this news is true or false, but none of the medical officers in Xu County have ever appeared, and in the second half of the night, several corpses were transported out of the backyard and pulled out of the city and buried in mass graves.

Hearing this, Duan Shaojun slowly stood up, and then paced in the study. "Cao Hu'er also went to that small mansion, and there is nothing unusual except for the death of the medical officer, right?"

"Yes, except for the death of those medical officers, there still seems to be no difference between the others and before, and that small mansion is still where Cao Hu'er's military advisor Zheng Sleeve lives, and Cao Hu'er still goes to that mansion from time to time."

"Okay, it's a pity that our people can't touch it in and investigate." Duan Shaojun frowned, and said with some regret.

Xu Qing thought for a while and then said to Duan Shaojun. "Childe, do you want them to give it a try?"

"No need, since it has been determined that it is the place where the Tang Emperor is imprisoned, it must be very heavily guarded, and it is not easy for them to lurk there, it is good not to be exposed, I don't want them to be sent to death."

"Let's wait first, it's not easy to touch there, and now Cao Hu'er's base camp is located in Xu County, if we want to make a move, it will inevitably be easy to be attacked by a group......"

Duan Shaojun sat down, his face wrinkled, and began to think carefully, now, it is not that he can do what he wants. What's more, those people are all cultivated by themselves, although they are all businessmen on the surface, but in fact, they have already become excellent and capable fine works.

Since the old emperor was captured by Cao Hu'er, Duan Shaojun ordered his subordinates to sneak into the front line from the three counties of Hetao to the palace.

And now Xu County, which is now regarded as a base camp by Cao Hu'er, is one of the squatting strongholds, and in addition, they have made the silver up and down, and the materials they operate are also scarce for the people in the place where Cao Hu'er is based, so they not only have a firm foothold, but also have a relationship with many generals in Cao's army.

It was through these connections that we learned the location of His Majesty the Emperor's imprisonment. It's a pity that even if he got the information, Duan Shaojun was helpless. Moreover, this news is really not easy to tell Li Youwen, after all, at this time, what Li Youwen hopes most is to be able to save the old emperor as soon as possible.

But then, it is not what Duan Dagongzi expected, after all, compared to the old emperor who has a loss of virtue and appoints a traitorous villain, in the eyes of Duan Shaojun, Li Youwen is the best choice for Datang.

It's a pity that these ideas, Duan Shaojun's thoughts, do not mean that everyone in the world can agree with them. If the old emperor came out with a big wave of his hand, with more than ten years of accumulated power, it is indeed very likely to once again drag the authority of the Tang Dynasty.

But in that case, with the virtue of the old goods, I really don't know what kind of things will be done, it is inevitable that the Tang Empire will be bloody, and at that time, no one knows what angry and resentful old emperor will do because of this.

In fact, Duan Shaojun sent someone to find out the news of the old emperor, not for anything else, but just to hear the news of the old emperor's fart as soon as possible. As long as the news can be confirmed, then it is equivalent to letting Li Youwen let go of the last trace of vigilance, and she can directly wipe out Cao Hu'er's rebels.

But right now, the news that came really made Duan Shaojun a little incomprehensible, the old emperor had been unconscious by the poison for nearly a few months, at such a time, what was most needed was to make an experienced doctor take strict care, even if he couldn't save the old emperor, but at least he could save his life, so that the old emperor would be half-dead and survive.

Why did they quietly slaughter all the healers, and quietly dragged the bodies out of the city in the middle of the night to bury them? This is very unreasonable in terms of reason.

"Childe, do you think there is such a possibility, maybe the old emperor has already died. However, Cao Hu'er didn't want the news that the emperor had died in his hands to spread, so he simply slaughtered all the doctors who knew the truth, and then continued to make the appearance that the Son of Heaven was still in the world......" Xu Qing couldn't help but whisper when he saw Duan Shaojun frowning and muttering.

Duan Shaojun couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. But isn't that too obvious? If it is this son, even if those doctors know the news, so what, it is better to be under house arrest directly in that house, even if it is slaughtered, then just dig a pit in the courtyard and bury it, why bother to transport the body out of the city to be buried again? ”

Regarding Duan Dagongzi's remarks, whether it was Xu Qing, Xu Zheng, or Qi Da, they were all frightened by Duan Dagongzi's penetrating words.

"Childe, if you bury people in the yard, aren't you afraid of smelling? At least if the little one slaughters someone, he will definitely bury it a little farther away......" Xu Zheng looked at Duan Dagongzi in front of him with awe, afraid that only his own son-in-law would be so cold.

"Then you all think Xu Qing's guess is correct?" Duan Shaojun touched his chin, well, it seems that his three views are too correct, and they are not something that ordinary mortals can understand.

"Yes, I think that Brother Xu Qing's guess does have some truth, if it is Qi, he will definitely slaughter the person directly in order to prevent the leakage of the news......" Qi Dashen nodded approvingly, and after thinking about it, Qi Da continued. Childe, have you ever thought that the reason why they dared to kill someone and then take advantage of the night to pull them out and bury them was because they felt that even if there were spies in the territory they occupied, they shouldn't have considered this problem, right? ”

Duan Shaojun thought about it, and considering how much people in this era don't pay attention to fine work, he had to nod and agree with Qi Da's words. "Well, maybe I'm too preoccupied."

"In this way, let them be sure of the authenticity of the news, and they will not be afraid to spend more money, but they must find out the exact news from the generals of Cao Jun, whether the old emperor is dead or not. By the way, the sooner the better, our Empress Majesty's temper is not very good, in a few days, the body of the army will be over, she can't wait too long. ”

"Okay son, the little one will go and deliver the news to Xu County." After Xu Qing wrote down Duan Shaojun's instructions, he resigned from the study and left.

"In addition, Xu Zheng, has the news been passed on to the imperial capital?"

"Childe, you can rest assured, the news has been passed on, presumably the imperial capital should be able to receive the news in a few days. But then again, won't the imperial capital object? Xu Zheng scratched his scalp and said curiously towards Duan Shaojun.
