Mother, I have returned to the throne.

Chapter 309 I’ll give it to you, do you dare to take it?



Chapter 309 I’ll give it to you, do you dare to take it?

Song Yuan's tough attitude made everyone present feel nervous.

Situ Jing and Jin Lian beside him secretly clenched their fists, with a hint of worry in their eyes.

This kid is really bold.

Do we really have to break up with General Wei?

Clearly, the other party has caught us with evidence of privately building a military camp. At this time, if we say a few soft words, perhaps we can make the matter less serious.

If we directly start to instigate trouble now, won't that force General Wei to keep holding on to this matter?

Even though everyone knew that Song Yuan was a man of foresight and would not make mistakes on a regular basis, they still felt a little worried in their hearts.

If General Wei really takes a tough approach, I will submit a memorial to the emperor.

Even if Song Yuan is a prince, he will probably have to bear the consequences!

However, along with the worry, a bit of curiosity arose in everyone's hearts, and a bold idea popped up in their minds.

Could it be that Song Yuan’s attitude now is the same as last time?

Could it be that Song Yuan had planned this day long ago and was deliberately attacking it just to lure General Wei into the trap?

In the end, he bit back at the other party, leaving General Wei speechless?

With such complicated emotions, everyone clearly had the urge to step forward to stop it, but in the end they chose to stand by and watch.

Faced with such a self-righteous Song Yuan, General Wei was indeed furious and said, "You are simply making unreasonable demands. What I said before was what I saw with my own eyes. I have not wronged you in the slightest. Besides, I was asking impartial questions. Why do you think it's a personal vendetta?"

"General Wei, are you sure that you don't have any intention of seeking revenge for personal gain?" Song Yuan asked coldly, narrowing his eyes.

General Wei held his head high, chest puffed out, his face devoid of any guilt. "My conscience is clear. Do I even have the right to inquire about matters like the private construction of a military camp?"

Song Yuan snorted coldly at this statement and immediately shook his head: "General Wei, you and I are both smart people, so stop pretending here. If you are not seeking revenge for personal gain, I advise you to stop being a commander and go home directly!"

"Your Highness, from what I hear you say, are you still planning to seize power?" General Wei narrowed his eyes and showed a sneer on his face.

Song Yuan waved his hand: "I don't have this intention. Even if I did, I'm afraid my men might not be able to accomplish it!"

"But I want to remind General Wei, don't forget what my father said when I left the Imperial City. What was the purpose of sending me here?"

"Training!" General Wei responded immediately.

Song Yuan roared, "Since you know I'm training soldiers, then why are you asking me what I'm building a military camp for?"

"You know I captured thousands of war horses from the barbarians in the previous war. Now that I've finally built up a large force, what good are all those horses if I don't find a place to train my cavalry?"

"I really don't understand why something His Majesty said in person should be reported to you when it comes out of your mouth."

"Do I need to explain everything between us father and son to you? General Wei, you really have great authority!"

In just a few words, Song Yuan directly put the whole thing on General Wei, and after hearing this, General Wei's momentum suddenly weakened by three points.

As a qualified general, he naturally realized long ago that the military camp built by Song Yuan was specifically for training cavalry.

But General Wei at that time didn't think about the matter in this way at all.

Now Song Yuan has found an opportunity to turn the tables.

What should I do now?

For a moment, General Wei groaned in his heart, and even felt a little regretful.

I really have nothing better to do. Why can't I do anything else but have to cause trouble for this guy?

Now, we have lost both the wife and the army, and how can we refute such a reason?

After all, this matter was ordered by His Majesty.

Song Yuan was acting according to the imperial edict. Not to mention that he was a frontier general, even if the prime minister came, he would probably not be able to interfere.

Even looking at Song Yuan's furious expression, General Wei had already imagined what Song Yuan would say next.

It's nothing more than various reasons for building military camps.

It is freezing cold now, and those war horses may not be a big deal to the barbarians, but in the Qin Dynasty, they are definitely more precious than people.

How do war horses endure the cold weather?

If there is any loss, who will bear it?

The purpose of training the military camp now is to better manage the war horses so that they can exert better combat power.

Under such circumstances, all the reasons I gave before became false.

No wonder Song Yuan felt so confident in doing this, it turned out that he already had a plan in mind.

For a moment, General Wei frowned and fell into silence. After a long time, he finally smiled.

"Why is your Highness so nervous? I was just asking as usual. To be honest, I really didn't think of this. After all, if I didn't even ask about this matter, wouldn't it seem a bit derelict in my duty?"

"Besides, I just glanced at it before and didn't look closely at all. How could I know what the prince wanted to do by building a military camp?"

Seeing that General Wei was enduring the punishment, he even found an excuse for himself while speaking.

After a few words, he chose to bow his head.

For a moment, the eyes of everyone around Song Yuan widened, their pupils filled with surprise.

Is this still the General Wei in my impression?

Before, General Wei’s knights were so aggressive that everyone thought that Song Yuan might be in trouble this time.

In the end, Song Yuan only needed a few words to make General Wei completely surrender.

Only the prince can do that. Looking around the world, who has such ability?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Song Yuan again, and there was a bit more conviction in their eyes.

Seeing that General Wei let the matter go with just a few words, Song Yuan sneered and spoke up to remind him immediately.

"Mr. Wei, I advise you not to have any bad intentions. Otherwise, if I find out, the kick I gave you last time would be a minor punishment."

"Let me remind you, don't forget that when I left the Imperial City, I carried a coffin on my back to the frontier!"

"I've already prepared to die on the frontier, so don't even think about risking your life with me!"

"Your Highness, what you said is a bit serious. It's not worth it!"

Seeing that Song Yuan was serious, General Wei laughed dryly and quickly tried to persuade him.

"Last time, it was indeed my fault. I have already given Wang Ye a clear answer. When the prince kicked me, I thought it was all because of my dereliction of duty. If I hold a grudge against the prince for such a small matter, wouldn't that make me a villain?"

"I don't care what you think, and I don't care what you do!" Song Yuan sat down slowly, and his previous excited emotions became much calmer at this moment.

"I'm in a bad mood right now and just want to be alone. If you have nothing else to do, you can take your people and leave!"

Song Yuan simply waved his hand to send the guest away and ordered him to leave in a very rude tone.

Faced with such indifference, General Wei's eyes flashed with anger.

However, thinking of the purpose of his visit, General Wei was still unwilling to give up: "Your Highness, I do have something to say. Could you please allow me to finish speaking before I leave?"

"Well, hurry up and tell me, and leave as soon as you're done!"

Song Yuan waved his hand and gave the order directly.

General Wei then bravely explained his opinion: "To be honest, I think that it is really inappropriate for Your Majesty to train cavalry by the Peacock River at this time!"

"What do you mean by that?" Song Yuan raised his head slightly.

General Wei chuckled and explained, "Speaking of this matter, we have to talk about the current situation on the entire border. Your Highness is aware that I have led my men to defeat the barbarians time and again. These times combined have caused at least tens of thousands of casualties on the other side!"

"Do you think the barbarians can swallow their anger in this situation?"

"Your Highness, think about this carefully. If you were a barbarian, what would you do next in the face of such a loss?"

Having said that, General Wei snorted in his heart.

I know you are a silver-tongued person, and you will put the blame on yourself no matter what I say today!

In order to achieve his goal, General Wei diligently analyzed the current situation with Song Yuan.

It has to be said that as the commander of the entire border, General Wei is quite capable, and his grasp of the current situation is similar to what Song Yuan said before.

The barbarians have already suffered great losses and are likely to fight to the death next.

In this way, the entire Zhenbei Army will face a bloody battle!

According to General Wei, the barbarians will definitely find a way to launch a surprise attack, cross the Peacock River and take Sunan directly!

If it really comes to that, even the Zhenbei Army will have to take the initiative to attack, abandon the city, and take the initiative to fight.

Such a countermeasure has almost become a foregone conclusion. Even General Wei dare not gamble, because he simply cannot afford the loss of the bet!

Sunan is the lifeline of the entire barbarian nation and must not be lost!

After analyzing this, General Wei continued, "So, Your Highness, you should be able to understand that the previous wars were just mutual tests. From now on, it will be a matter of life and death!"

"Yes!" Song Yuan nodded, and a little alert arose in his heart.

At this point, he had already guessed what General Wei was going to say next.

It's nothing more than taking away things that previously belonged to you!

Sure enough, just as Song Yuan nodded, General Wei directly stated his request: "Since Your Highness understands the situation on the border, I also hope that you can give more consideration to the Zhenbei Army. In the case of long-distance raids, those war horses are of paramount importance. I still hope that Your Highness can also give the war horses you captured earlier to my Zhenbei Army!"

"In this way, with the help of these war horses, even if there is any trouble, the Zhenbei Army will be able to deal with it immediately!"

As the commander of the entire Zhenbei Army, General Wei naturally has the power to dispatch war horses.

In addition, now it is also a kind persuasion, even Song Yuan has to bow his head in the face of such a thing.

Otherwise, General Wei would have reason to punish Song Yuan simply for disobeying orders.

At this point, everyone present saw what General Wei was thinking. Among the crowd, Situ Jing took the lead in stepping forward and shouting.

"Mr. Wei, don't you think your request is too much? We've fought the barbarians, lost countless lives, and in the end, why should we give you the spoils we captured?"

"You're asking us to hand over all our warhorses with just one word. Do you really think we're pushovers?"

At this point, everyone understood General Wei's intentions.

It was obvious that they wanted to punish Song Yuan on the charge of privately building a military camp, but they were helpless.

Then he changed his mind and decided to take those war horses!

"Princess, please calm down. I had no choice but to make such arrangements!"

Facing Situ Jing's accusation, General Wei smiled and explained: "You also know that the upcoming situation is related to the life and death of the entire Daqin. In the final analysis, I am also considering Wei Daqin!"

"Only with warhorses can the entire Zhenbei Army maintain its mobility. To put it bluntly, everything I do is to achieve the final victory in the war!"

Faced with such a reason, even Situ Jing could only clench his fists, his face flushed, but he could not say a word of rebuttal.

When General Wei saw the princess's expression, he laughed in his heart.

After all, they are just a bunch of young fools. Do you think you can fight me?

Go dream!

Seeing that the conflict was about to escalate, Song Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

"General Wei, I advise you not to take those war horses!"

"Of course, if you really want it, I'll give it to you. I'm just afraid that when the time comes, I'll take out those war horses, and you, Wei, might not have the courage to do it!"
