Chapter 353: The Infatuated General's Cannon Fodder Wife (7)

If he led his troops into Beijing, he would probably be the only one who could stop him.

Su Li laughed, "Father, did you know that when the capital was in turmoil, Tong Li was sent with an order to lead troops to the capital?"

"Oh?"

Father Ge was surprised, "Is this true?"

Although the capital was in turmoil, the new emperor had already made arrangements.

What's more, his son-in-law didn't show up!

"Ama, do you know King Rui? It was King Rui who ordered him in the first place!" Su Li nodded.

"Prince Rui?" Father Ge nodded.

He stroked his goatee and said, "Prince Rui supports the Crown Prince! During the turmoil, the Crown Prince was killed first, so Prince Rui was also... Are you saying that my son-in-law has some dealings with Prince Rui?"

"Yeah." Su Li nodded.

"It seems that he is the prince's reliance! No wonder the prince is so unscrupulous in the capital." Father Ge suddenly realized.

"However, Tong Li may not be aware that he has unintentionally become a member of the princeling faction." Su Li said with a smile.

In the original body's memory, Tong Li never mentioned which prince he supported.

"That's possible. The late emperor originally favored the crown prince, so it's possible that he secretly asked Prince Rui to contact Tong Li to support the crown prince!"

Father Ge nodded, "Fortunately Tong Li was smart and did not lead his troops into the capital, otherwise we would be in danger!"

Although the new emperor is wise, he is not very smart.

He killed, demoted, or imprisoned the princes who had competed with him for the throne.

If it weren't for the one guarding the northwest, who was his biological brother from the same father and mother, and with the empress dowager's strong protection, he would have been treated like the other princes long ago.

Nowadays, there are still rumors in the streets that the late emperor actually liked that person.

The new emperor was able to ascend the throne because he had tampered with the previous emperor's will.

"But what does this have to do with you returning to the capital with your dowry?" Ge's father wondered.

"Father, do you know that King Rui has a daughter?" Su Li curled her lips.

"Yes, Princess Mingzhu, the only precious daughter of Prince Rui, is treated like the apple of his eye."

Father Ge nodded, indicating that he was of course clear, "However, a few days ago, the entire family of the Rui Palace was slaughtered, and only Princess Mingzhu's whereabouts are unknown!"

"Father, you may not know that I had a dream before!" Su Li recounted what happened to his original body.

"What? Are you saying that you dreamed that the little princess from the Rui family was taken back to the border town by Tong Li, and that he wanted to marry her as a concubine?"

Father Ge frowned, "Yan'er, this might just be a dream!"

"Then father, you should have arranged some spies in Tong Li's military camp, right? You can send a pigeon to ask whether my daughter's dream has come true!" Su Li said with a faint smile.

Looking at Su Li's determined eyes, Ge's father still chose to believe it.

He stroked his goatee and said, "So what are you going to do next? Are you going to divorce him? Or are you going to ask your father to help you kill the princess from the Rui family?"

Su Li was dumbfounded.

In the original body's memory, Father Ge was always gentle.

Today, he casually said that he wanted to kill a Heshuo princess, as if he was going to kill a chick.

Seeing Su Li's slightly puzzled look, Ge's father suddenly felt that he had been too blunt.

According to what his precious daughter said in her dream, the little princess from Prince Rui's family must be a woman with deep scheming.

He would never allow anyone to bully his Ge family!

"Father, I have to kill him, but not now."

Su Li shook her head, "I have my own plans!"

"Oh? What are your plans? Tell me about it." Father Ge asked curiously.

"Don't worry, you'll know after a while!"

Su Li smiled mysteriously and said, "My daughter came here this time to ask you to find a way to transfer Tong Li to Beijing."

If he comes over, Duan Mingzhu will definitely follow him, and then...

"Okay! It just so happens that the new emperor also has the idea of ​​placing his trusted people in the border town. I have been secretly trying to stop him in the past, but now I will follow the new emperor's wishes!" Father Ge nodded.

That evening, Su Li took the two siblings of the Tong family away from the Grand Secretary's Mansion.

And Ge's father entered the palace.

The next day, an imperial decree was issued from the palace, ordering General Tong to come to Beijing to pay homage to the new emperor.

Two days later, Tong Li received the imperial edict.

He frowned slightly, and finally decided to hand over the affairs of the military camp to the deputy general and go to the capital alone.

"Ali, are you going to the capital?"

After Duan Mingzhu learned the news, he came over from the backyard.

Tong Li, who was in the study, nodded and said, "That's right. It just so happens that I'm going to the capital to bring my wife back. You can just stay in the mansion and wait for me to marry you."

"I'd better go with you!" Duan Mingzhu said quickly.

These days, she has completely integrated into this dynasty, and even Tong Li does not doubt her identity.

In addition, Prince Rui's family is dead, and Duan Mingzhu is a girl living in seclusion, so it seems that no one can discover her identity.

"No, you're pregnant, and the road is bumpy..." Tong Li glanced at her belly and shook his head.

"It's okay, I'll just pad the carriage with thicker pads! Didn't I promise you to make more money? The capital is prosperous, and it's much easier to make money than in this border town!" Duan Mingzhu said hurriedly.

"Okay, then you ask the maid to pack up and we'll set off tomorrow." Tong Li nodded.

As for Tong Li, he still had some things to deal with.

In the past two days, he embezzled military pay and paid back the silver he owed.

Now, he was calculating how much he had embezzled so that he could go to the capital to ask his wife Ge Liangyan for silver notes to make up for it.

Otherwise, it would be discovered after a long time.

Of course, Su Li also knew about his embezzlement of military funds.

This is also one of the reasons why Su Li asked Ge's father to transfer Tong Li back to the capital.

Once he is left in the capital, the new emperor will definitely arrange for someone to take over, and then...

Duan Mingzhu returned to the backyard with an impatient smile on her face.

She couldn't wait to return to the capital!

As a time traveler, it would be very easy for her to make a living in this dynasty.

She can just show off some of her abilities.

As for the kids…

She glanced at her belly and couldn't help but smile weirdly.

Where did the child come from? It was just a means for her to force marriage.

When I get to the capital, I will meet Tong Li’s wife, and then I will kill two birds with one stone.

Everything she has is hers!

Duan Mingzhu had already calculated that the wives and daughters of high-ranking officials in the capital city valued their appearance the most.

She happened to have learned how to make skin care products and cosmetics in her world, and when she produces them, they will definitely be popular throughout the capital.

She even looked forward to being appreciated by the empress dowager and being adopted as her daughter, which would then raise her status even higher.

By then, won’t she be able to choose from among the men in the capital?

As for Tong Li, I can't have any feelings for him anyway, so just let him have a status!

With anticipation, Duan Mingzhu and Tong Li set out for the capital before dawn the next day.
