The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented
Chapter 29 Do you have an older or younger sister?
Zhan Shubai, the garrison commander of Yunji City, colluded with the barbarians!
How could the seven thousand soldiers of Yunji City escape responsibility?
If we process these letters, removing the beginning and end, and eliminating the Empress's instructions to Zhan Shubai, leaving only the content about Zhan Shubai's collusion with the barbarians.
Then make it public!
What should the seven thousand soldiers in Yunji City think?
Regardless of their loyalty to the imperial court, they were all accused of the heinous crime of colluding with barbarians, a crime punishable by death!
"This forces the seven thousand soldiers of Yunji City to side with us!"
Sun Xiang became excited.
Ren Tianye smiled, took the letters back from his hand, and took out several letters from the box that had been processed, leaving only the contents of Zhan Shubai's collusion with the barbarians, and handed them to Sun Xiang.
He said, "These letters have already been burned by Su Jin, and the contents that remain are just right."
"When you turn back, send people to post it all over the military camp, making sure that all the soldiers of Yunji City can see it clearly."
"Yes, General."
"And..." Ren Tianye continued, "Send some more people to create some panic."
"If the 70,000 loyal soldiers of the Crimson Beacon Army were slaughtered simply for disobeying their lord's orders, then what fate awaits the 7,000 soldiers of Cloud Ridge City suspected of colluding with the barbarians?"
Sun Xiang finally understood, and his heart grew even more excited.
He had long known that the seven thousand soldiers of Yunji City would become part of their rebel army, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly. With the general's ruthless methods and unparalleled strategies, these seven thousand soldiers were now completely unable to escape their grasp.
"General, I will certainly do my best."
"Hmm!" Ren Tianye nodded in agreement, but a hint of doubt appeared on his face. He said, "However, what you just said has left this general somewhat puzzled."
Whether the Empress intends to disrupt the barbarian situation is another matter.
"But who is this Third Prince she's supporting? How can he possibly compete with the deeply entrenched First Prince?"
This question stumped Sun Xiang as well.
He asked, puzzled, "Yes, General."
"Based on our understanding, the eldest prince has a deep foundation and the greatest power; no other prince can rival him."
"Even if other princes have ulterior motives, the one who will step forward is probably the second prince, the eighth prince, the ninth prince, the tenth prince, or even the thirteenth prince."
"After all, they are all extraordinary in some way, whether they are brave and good at fighting, have unparalleled wisdom, have powerful family backgrounds, or are favored by the old barbarian emperor."
"Can……"
"Who exactly is this third prince?"
"I've never known!"
"In fact, if it weren't for you showing me these things today, General, I wouldn't have known that the barbarians actually had a third prince."
"I thought it was another prince who died young!"
Ren Tianye was even more puzzled.
It turns out even Sun Xiang didn't know who this Third Prince was!
Sun Xiang was a veteran in the Northern Frontier Army and had always maintained a good relationship with the Red Beacon Army, so he knew far more intelligence than the average person.
result……
I don't know either!
That's really strange!
Where on earth did this third prince come from?
How could the Empress support him so much?
This clearly shows they want to support the Third Prince's ascension to the throne as the barbarian emperor!
"General..."
At this moment, a soft voice sounded from the side, and Su Jin said somewhat nervously, "This concubine knows a little about this matter."
"Oh?"
"You know?"
Ren Tianye asked, and then suddenly remembered.
This Su Jin is no ordinary person.
This is Miss Su, and the Su family is a prominent clan in Yunji City, residing in the northern frontier for a long time. Many members of the family also run businesses along the border, so it's not surprising that they know this.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have heard some of it."
Su Jin swallowed hard, trying to make her words sound coherent, and said, "General, the mother of this Third Prince was born from a drunken affair between the old barbarian emperor and a woman from another tribe. Therefore, he has never been liked since childhood."
"He has always been a hostage in various countries."
"Now that you're among the barbarians, it seems you've returned."
Ren Tianye finally gained a basic understanding of the Third Prince of the Barbarian Tribe, but he became even more curious.
Although the barbarian tribes also established dynasties and states, they were far inferior to the Great Yu Dynasty in the Central Plains in every aspect. Therefore, they were always called "foreign states" by the people of Great Yu, and their emperors were mostly called Great Khans.
But this third prince that Su Jin mentioned was actually called a "barbarian" by the barbarians?!
What do you mean?
A foreign land among foreign lands?
He then asked, "What clan was the Third Prince's birth mother?"
Su Jin quickly replied, "I heard they're Japanese!"
creak creak...
Ren Tianye suddenly felt a tickle in his teeth.
Good heavens, they're Japanese!
It turns out that this third prince is half barbarian and half Japanese!
The hatred level is truly at its maximum!
But this only made him more and more puzzled.
Why would the Empress support a third prince like that?
Is there some deeper meaning?
Wait, could this outrageous empress have a deeper meaning?
After thinking for a moment, Ren Tianye couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it and arranged for Sun Xiang to go out and do some work. He then continued to look through the account books that had been sitting on the table for the past few days.
Su Jin stood respectfully to one side.
The study was completely silent, without the slightest sound.
However, just as Ren Tianye's brows furrowed more and more, Su Jin mustered her courage and spoke up again: "General, I have something to say, but I don't know if I should tell you."
"explain."
"I know that General, your military resources are scarce and your provisions are insufficient, which will not last long and is not conducive to your great cause. However, I have a method that can help you obtain a large amount of military resources."
Ren Tianye narrowed his eyes: "You seem to know quite a lot."
"Pfft!"
Su Jin swayed and quickly knelt down, saying in a trembling voice, "General, I didn't see it on purpose. I just happened to see it while I was recording the accounts for you."
"I had no other intentions whatsoever, please forgive me, General."
Ren Tianye neither confirmed nor denied it.
From the moment he asked Su Jin to help him with the paperwork, he had made thorough preparations and was not afraid that Su Jin would see military secrets. However, he needed to keep this woman in check from time to time.
Otherwise, if she were to act up again like she did when Zhang Wei was protecting her, disrupting military discipline, it would be troublesome.
He said calmly, "Then tell me, what's the solution?"
Su Jin then looked up, suppressing her trembling, and said, "General, in Yunji City, my Su family is the largest family. We have been in business for generations and have countless riches. Some of our elders have served as officials in the imperial court. Even the former garrison commander, Zhan Shubai, dared not provoke us."
"If the general is willing to marry a woman from my Su family."
"My Su family will naturally provide the general with financial and military supplies to relieve his urgent needs."
Ren Tianye frowned.
Is this a move to get him into a "high-class" family?
However, there's no problem!
He already knew about the Su family. Although they were a business family on the surface, they were actually very powerful and their influence was not limited to Yunji City, but spread throughout the entire Northern Frontier.
Marrying a daughter from the Su family would not only solve the problem of insufficient military funds, but would also greatly benefit future development in the entire northern border region.
As for the fact that he would have to rely on his father-in-law's influence... Ren Tianye had absolutely no psychological burden about this!
Those who achieve great things do not concern themselves with trifles. Have you not heard of how many emperors throughout history have rapidly expanded their power by relying on the influence of women? There is absolutely nothing wrong with him taking this path.
As long as the outcome is that he controls the woman's family, rather than being controlled by them, that's fine.
Ren Tianye is extremely confident about this.
Having considered all this, he said, "Okay!"
"This general will marry your Su family's daughter."
Su Jin was pleasantly surprised. Her delicate and beautiful face radiated a strong glow, and for a moment, her beauty was no less than when she was in Zhang Wei's army camp.
"General, is it true?"
"Of course it's true!" Ren Tianye asked, "Do you have an older or younger sister?"
Su Jin's face quickly lost its luster; the hopes she had carefully planned had been completely dashed by Ren Tianye's single sentence.
But for now, she had to pull herself together and answer seriously, "I have two younger sisters."
"My second sister, Su Xiu, is aloof and arrogant, and she doesn't take any man seriously."
"Not a good match for a general."
"As for my third sister, Su Li, she has been well-behaved since childhood. Now she is eighteen years old and has grown into a graceful and elegant young lady, with a gentle and innocent charm."
"Most suitable for the general."
Ren Tianye then asked, "Are you three sisters born of the same mother?"
"General, the three of us sisters are not born of the same mother. I am the eldest daughter, my second sister Su Xiu is the legitimate daughter, and my third sister Su Li was born to a concubine."
Ren Tianye nodded, stood up and said, "Then let's choose your second sister."
"You will handle this matter. I will send General Wang Ming to assist you."
After saying that, he got up and left the study to go to the military camp to find Wang Ming.
Su Jin was left alone in the room, stunned. After a long while, she let out a heavy sigh. This Ren Tianye was truly... unlike any of the men she had ever known before!
She'll probably have to stay this obedient and well-behaved from now on.
