Chapter 2292: put all one's eggs in one basket
Chapter 2292 A desperate move
Jiang Wankang was more skilled than Xu You. He led his soldiers like a sharp arrow to block Xu You, and said loudly: "Greetings to the Marquis!"
Xu You was stopped and furious. He stared at Jiang Wankang and asked, "Aren't you in Duchonggou? Why are you in Changliangwei?"
Looking behind Jiang Wankang again, he saw not only Qin Sanlang, but also General Ma. They were really well rounded!
Jiang Wangang said: "Xiao Liu was poisoned by Xu Lianye and was in danger. Changliang Sanitation was afraid that something might happen to Xiao Liu, so he immediately reported to me. After I learned about it, I rushed over and took care of Xiao Liu for half a day."
Xu You was surprised. He had been here for so long, so he might have already discussed a countermeasure with Chang Liang Wei.
Jiang Wangang said: "Master Hou, Xiao Liu is not in the house over there. He is recuperating in the male guest's house. Master Hou is coming with me. Let's go and see him."
To see him?
Xu You wished Xu Liu would die immediately!
I don’t know what kind of luck Xu Liu is. Every time he is entrusted with an important task, something goes wrong... Is this son really not good?
People in Dachu believe in their fate, and Xu You is no exception. He is already thinking that after this matter is settled, he must bring his other concubines to Daokougou camp, and he can no longer praise Xu Liu blindly.
After almost three years of admiration, I still couldn’t hold it up. This time I almost lost my life and ruined the Winter Solstice Festival.
At the Winter Solstice Festival, he did not have his son to accompany him to worship. Xu You could already imagine how he would be laughed at!
"Master Marquis, please." Jiang Wanzang urged, and then said: "Go to the guest's house so that we can discuss things."
Over there is the main residence, the residence of the female family members. Xu You still wants to rush over there? !
To be honest, Jiang Wanzang was angry. He felt that Xu You could not rush to the women's house no matter how anxious or angry he was. This was because he did not regard the thousands of households under his command as human beings!
Xu You was still wary of Jiang Wankang, so he finally nodded: "Lead the way."
“Yes.” Jiang Wankang responded respectfully and led the way.
The male guest's house is on the left, some distance away. It took him a quarter of an hour of riding to get there.
"Forgive me, Mr. Marquis. You deserve death for a certain crime." Mr. Qianshan was already waiting at the door. He bowed and apologized from a distance. Before Xu You could get angry, he told him another piece of good news: "The doctor of Chang Liang Wei and Yuan Zi The doctors at the medicine shop have superb medical skills, and the combined efforts of several doctors, plus the antidote prepared by Mrs. Qin, saved the Sixth Young Master from the gate of hell. Now that he is out of danger, he will be nursed for a few more days until he can come out during the Winter Solstice Festival. One lap, no problem meeting guests.”
This sentence almost means that Chang Liang Wei, Yuan Zi Yaoxing, and Gu Jinli are Xu Liu's saviors... If someone saves your son, you can't do anything to him no matter what, otherwise you will be ungrateful!
After Xu You heard this, he almost whipped the riding crop on Mr. Qianshan, but he finally held back.
Mr. Qianshan saw that his riding whip was not down, so he understood that although Xu You was furious, he still had sense... As long as he was not angry and crazy, then he could talk.
“Master Hou, let’s go in first.” Jiang Wankang said.
Xu You entered the house with a sullen face, went to the yard where Xu Liu was recuperating, and saw Xu Liu.
Xu Liu really suffered greatly from this poisoning. At this moment, his face was pale, and he was lying on the fire bed, still asleep.
Manager Min Da said: "Don't worry, Mr. Hou, the Sixth Young Master was just too tired when extracting the poison and was exhausted. He will mostly be drowsy in the past two days, and he will be fine when he wakes up."
He also said: "A certain person is the chief manager of Yuanzi Medicine Store, Min Ji."
"You are Min Ji." Xu You was shocked and angry. He didn't expect that this was Min Ji who was in charge of half of Yuanzi Medicine Store. Since he was such a person, he couldn't do anything to him.
Manager Min nodded: "Exactly so."
He added: "Please don't worry, Mr. Marquis, I will stay until the Sixth Young Master recovers."
Xu You was very slapped in the face when he heard this, and said, "No need, there is a doctor in the Xu family."
Manager Min couldn't get what he asked for, so he said respectfully: "Yes."
Xu You is busy now and has no time to get close to Manager Min. He said: "Manager Min, you guys go out first. I want to accompany Brother Heng."
He said again: "Lao Jiang, Mr. Qianshan, you stay." I understand, this is to say something that outsiders cannot listen to.
"Yes." Manager Min hurriedly took the others out, including Qin Sanlang. In the blink of an eye, only Xu You, Jiang Wangang, Mr. Qianshan and the sleeping Xu Liusi were left in the room.
Xu You came with his own soldiers.
After Qin Sanlang and others exited the house, the entire house was surrounded by Xu You's soldiers and no outsiders were allowed to approach.
Inside the house, Xu You asked Jiang Wankang: "What are you going to do?"
Jiang Wankang did not hide anything and said bluntly: "Brother Xu, the entire Mu County knows that cassava was discovered by Changliang Wei. Now that the matter has come to this, it would be too ugly to take the credit again. Moreover, Changliang Wei is the guard post of the Northwest Army. You are in charge of the entire Northwest Army, and what Changliang Wei has is yours, there is no need to rob it."
boom!
Xu You slapped the table angrily, pointed at Jiang Wankang and said: "No need to rob? Food is the most important thing for the people. You know better than me how important new food is to the world and to the great cause. With this credit, countless people will defect to us. But if this credit is given to Qin Gu and his wife, it will be given to Emperor Jing Yuan, who will make a big fuss and use this matter to extend the life of the Chu Dynasty!"
Jiang Wangang said: "Nowadays, the world of Da Chu is still dominated by Da Chu. No matter who discovers the new food, Emperor Jingyuan can make a fuss about the new food, saying that God bless Da Chu and that the new food is sent to Da Chu. Da Chu is the destiny of heaven." .”
He sighed again: "...it is still too early for the new food to come out. If it comes out when we are in trouble, Emperor Jingyuan will not be able to take advantage."
Xu You was angry: "Are you blaming me for coming early to ask for food?!"
Jiang Wangang did not deny it, only said: "Master Hou, Mu County is a mixed place like Fucheng. Qi Yi also sent Emperor Jingyuan's guards to garrison Mu County. The truth about who discovered the new grain must not be hidden. Hou Please be patient and don't make things worse and provoke Emperor Jingyuan's attack."
Xu You was disdainful: "Oh, how dare he come to attack me?!"
He added: "So what if the people in Mu County know about it? As long as Qin and Gu change their story and say that it is a new grain discovered by the Xu family and they just follow orders to grow it, they can still make things right. I am here to let them know." They changed their tune."
Still unwilling to give up such a great achievement.
Jiang Wanzang was heartbroken, silent for a while, and then suddenly knelt down on his knees.
Xu You was shocked when he saw this, and joy filled his heart...Jiang Wankang giving him such a big gift was equivalent to surrendering to him. This was one of the things he wanted to see most after their relationship deteriorated.
Jiang Wanzang untied the cloth bag from his waist again, took out a small box, and handed it to Xu You: "Ayou, please accept it."
Xu You was stunned for a moment. He took the small box and opened it. Inside were the military symbols, tokens, flags, seals and a letter belonging to Jiang Wankang commanding one hundred thousand troops.
Xu You opened the letter and was almost ecstatic: "Old Jiang, you..."
This is a suicide note, saying that Xu You is his brother in life and death. If he dies, all his troops, horses, and property will be left to Xu You. Those who are loyal to him must not disobey him.
With this suicide note, he will be able to take advantage of Jiang Wankang after his death!
Jiang Wankang said: "Ayou, I know we have had some misunderstandings in the past two years, but I have always been loyal to you, and everything I have done is to help you achieve your great cause. Take these things to reassure you and prove your success." I am loyal to you."
but…
“There are too many people who know about the new grain, so you really can’t steal it.”
Jiang Wankang made the desperate move because he was out of heart and to save Qin Sanlang's family... Although those in charge of military affairs are most wary of love, Qin and Gu were not wrong, and they had done many good deeds that benefited the country and the people. They were still young, so with him His sons and daughters were as old as each other. They had left their homes to fight in the northwest and suffered a lot. He really didn't want to see them die.
Mr. Qianshan took the opportunity to say: "Master Hou, it is really hard to grab the credit for the new grain. Give this credit to Qin and Gu first. When you are successful, find a reason to kill them, and then change history. Later generations will naturally You will think that the credit for the new grain belongs to the Xu family."
