Uncle Detective Di Renjie, I build a crime-solving team

Chapter 881 Yu Zhou tries to delay

In the imperial study, Di Renjie, Wu Chengsi, Zhang Jianzhi, Xue Qinglin, Li Gui, Yao Chong and Yao Ting came in accompanied by the Secretary General Shangguan Wan'er.

Li Cunxi put down the pen in his hand and asked everyone to sit down.

Wu Chengsi didn't care about that and came to Li Cunxi's desk long before Li Cunxi asked him to sit down.

There is only a pair of couplets on the huge desk.

The handwriting is a bit difficult to read, but it is not difficult to make out the content of the couplet.

"First line: One person, two people, three people, four people, five people."

"Second line: Six people, seven people, eight people, nine people, ten people."

"Horizontal banner: They are all human!"

"Your handwriting is so ugly, Your Majesty, you should practice your calligraphy."

Li Cunxi's face fell, and he looked down. He realized that his handwriting, which he thought was beautiful, had been damaged so badly.

"Alas, father-in-law, this handwriting of mine is really ugly. I can't even bear to read it myself."

"My dear ministers, you have come to me together. Something must have happened. Tell me about it."

Wu Chengsi didn't waste any time. After sitting down, he told Di Renjie and the others everything.

An army of 200,000 attacking Chongzhou is no small matter.

Li Cunxi took a deep breath and said, "Keep a close eye on Tubo, and don't let go of those tribes in the Western Regions either."

"This is the first battle of the founding of the country. We must win. I need this victory!"

……

Turks.

Yazhangshi Kingdom.

The grassland is not sunny today. Dark clouds are rolling in, covering the scorching sun.

The Turkic Khan Helu had a gloomy expression on his face. Opposite him, Yu Zhou, who had recovered by now, let out another scream and then fell headfirst. He was treated for a quarter of an hour before he finally got up.

Yu Zhou seemed to be breathing weakly, his face was pale, and his eyes were opening and closing. He didn't look like a human being at all.

Isn't this a completely terminally ill patient?

"Prime Minister, please take care of yourself!"

Prince Helu shed tears.

He finally became a prime minister, and thought that this good news could offset the impact of the previous fall of the Great Wu on Yuzhou. However, he never expected that within a short time after he announced the good news, the latest information made Yuzhou lie down again and he could not wake up for a long time.

All the generals around him knelt on one knee and clasped their fists towards Yu Zhou.

"Prime Minister!"

Yu Zhou opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at the crowd, and after feeling the simple emotions of these grassland men, he secretly cursed "shark arm" in his heart.

There was no change on his face from beginning to end, even his eyes did not change. He tilted his head and looked at the information he had thrown on the ground before he pretended to be unconscious.

"Forehead……"

“Ah…ah…uh…”

He made a heartbreaking sound from his throat, raised his hand with seemingly great difficulty, and pointed at the intelligence.

Prince Helu understood and hurried forward to pick up the information, and then sat down next to Yu Zhou.

Yu Zhou said "ah" for a long time, then nodded a few times with his mouth open, and then closed his eyes again.

"Doctor, doctor!"

"How is the Prime Minister? Come and see!"

The doctor clasped his fists together, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down his forehead.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister was just a little angry and now he probably feels a little tired and needs a good rest."

"Your Majesty, please do not provoke the Prime Minister at this time. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous."

Prince Helu nodded.

Yu Zhou looked like he was really angry just now, otherwise he wouldn't have collapsed immediately with a scream.

After taking a closer look at Yuzhou who seemed to be fast asleep, Helu carefully led everyone out of the tent.

After leaving the tent, Helu walked out for dozens of meters before looking down at the information in his hand.

This piece of information was very important. He originally wanted Yu Zhou to give up completely, but he didn't expect that it would stimulate Yu Zhou to the point of fainting.

"damn it!"

Helu was extremely angry. He threw the intelligence that the intelligence personnel had obtained with great difficulty to the ground and stomped on it hard.

"For this piece of information, I almost lost my position as Prime Minister!"

"It's nothing more than Wu Emperor Wu Sansi being beheaded in public, nothing more than Li Cunxi and Li Tang replacing Zhou!"

"How can these matters be more important than my Prime Minister?"

Helu got angry and the generals around him bowed their heads.

It's not that there are no good generals and capable ministers in the Turkic territory, but these people cannot compare with Yu Zhou in basic abilities. What's more, Yu Zhou had saved Helu once during the Chongzhou case, which made Helu trust him even more.

Therefore, no one can compare with Yuzhou in Helu's mind.

When Yuzhou entered the Turkic region, Helu personally went out to greet him.

With such courtesy, even if everyone didn't know Yu Zhou's worth, they could still see the status of Yu Zhou in Helu's heart.

Therefore, when Helu was angry about Yuzhou, no one dared to stand up and provoke him.

"Send a message to Qi Ge, tell him to slow down the march. With Yu Zhou down, the logistics supply can't keep up."

……

Late at night, Yu Zhou had a good sleep and finally woke up.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Helu sitting on the table not far away in the dim light of the fire.

The Turkic Khan sat calmly, with the route for Yuzhou to transfer grain and fodder laid out on the table in front of him.

"Your Majesty the Khan."

Yu Zhou pretended to be weak and spoke in a low voice.

"Great, Prime Minister, you finally woke up. I was so worried about you."

Helu heard the sound and ran over and sat down on Yuzhou's bed.

Yu Zhou faced Helu in a weak posture, and said in a soft voice that he was fine. He hoped that Helu would put the overall situation first, recruit someone to replace him, and ensure the supply of the army heading south.

Helu was deeply moved and decided to pay more attention to the state.

The two of them exchanged a few more words, and Yu Zhou suddenly sighed and said:

"The Wu Zhou Dynasty, which lasted only seven years, collapsed. Li Cunxi's Tang Dynasty replaced the former Wu Zhou Dynasty and once again became the ruler of the land of China."

"Your Majesty, before the war broke out in the north, the Li Tang replaced the Zhou. Do you know what Wu Zhao was thinking?"

"She wants to use a great victory to mark the end of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and another great victory to mark the establishment of Li Cunxi's new dynasty. This, this, this is a battle for the nation's destiny, Your Majesty!"

"If the Tang Dynasty wins, it will always be ours. If we win, the Tang Dynasty will become a joke."

Prince Helu's eyes flickered.

From Yu Zhou's words, he could tell that this was not a simple war.

To put it in a broader sense, this is a battle for the destiny of the country.

If the Tang Dynasty wins, the Turks will find it difficult to move south for 30 years, and may even be directly destroyed by the Tang Dynasty.

"The Emperor of Great Wu is dead. Your Majesty and I will live and die together!"

Yu Zhou struggled to get up, knelt on the couch, and kowtowed to Helu.

"The Prime Minister has not let me down, and I will not let the Prime Minister down either!"

Helu stepped forward, held Yuzhou's hands tightly, and then helped Yuzhou lie down.

"Your Majesty, I am well aware of my physical condition. Please do not worry about me."

"The war is about to begin. You must not abandon the Duke because of me."

"Your Majesty, I am willing to continue serving you!"
