Zhao Tong, a second-generation general, didn't have a good impression of Eastern Wu, his uncles and fathers all died in the Battle of Yiling, and when he saw Qian Zhou speaking for Eastern Wu like this, he was very unhappy in his heart, and snorted coldly: "Don't forget that you are Hanchen!" ”

Qian Zhou stroked his pale beard, laughed loudly, and asked rhetorically: "It is precisely because the old minister is a great Han courtier that he thinks about the overall situation in everything, and has three legs, one strong and two weak, if he is not tightly tied to Eastern Wu, what can he do to resist Wei?" ”

Qian Zhou's words made Liu Yao deeply convinced, although Dongwu's backstabbing three times and twice was very inauthentic, but the alliance with Dongwu was still the current political correctness.

Obviously, Jiang Wei has received Zhuge Liang's true biography, and he must also understand things, and he knows that he should not tear his face with Dongwu, so he admonished: "The minister thinks that when he sends an envoy to Dongwu, he will deliver the news of the restoration of my Han Dynasty to Dongwu." The second is to claim back Padang County, which was occupied by Soochow. Third, you can investigate the affairs of Nanzhong, if Jiaozhou has been reversed, you should join forces with Dongwu to send troops. ”

Seeing that Jiang Wei was still going to advocate sending troops to fight, Yan Yu broke out in an instant, and shouted angrily: "Jiang Wei! Do you know how much grain my big man has? All you have in your eyes is the Northern Expedition and the peace of mind! Shu has repeatedly rebelled, if the people still have a way to live, where will there be rebellion! If we continue to fight, my Han will be destroyed! ”

Jiang Wei didn't expect Yan Yu to directly confront him in front of so many people, and he became angry for a while: "What do you know about Yan Yu's husband?" If I don't go on a northern expedition, within a hundred years, the hearts of the people will no longer think about Han, and then the Han will only have a dead end, so how can I face the prime minister and the first emperor under the nine springs! ”

For a while, you came and went, Jiang Wei and Yan Yu were originally mortal enemies, but Jiang Wei had always led the army outside, and he had no chance to meet Yan Yu, but he was very dissatisfied with each other.

Liu Chan couldn't help frowning, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, the two court officials are arguing, like what are the words, if this is officially the court will be spread out, won't let Wei and Wu laugh off their big teeth?" ”

Jiang Wei and Yan Yu immediately died down and said in unison: "The minister is guilty!" ”

Liu Chan thought for a while, and felt that what Jiang Wei said made sense, but what Yan Yu said was also true, under the years of conquest, Shuzhong was already scarce, so he clapped his head and said: "According to what the general said, first send an envoy to Dongwu, find out the truth and then make a decision. ”

Seeing that Liu Chan finally adopted his opinion, Jiang Wei hurriedly said, "Your Majesty is wise!" I wonder who Your Majesty wants to send? ”

Tangled in sending someone to envoy to Soochow, this Liu Chan didn't think about it, and he couldn't make up his mind at once, so he asked: "I don't know if there is anyone recommended by Zhong Aiqing?" ”

Huang Hao, who had been standing next to Liu Chan without speaking, stood up under the surprise of everyone: "There is one of the slaves and maids to recommend!" ”

Seeing that it was Huang Hao who stood up to speak, Jiang Wei was suddenly furious, and scolded loudly: "You are a eunuch, how are you qualified to guide military affairs?" Don't quit yet! ”

If it weren't for Huang Hao, how could so many loyal ministers and good generals of the Han Dynasty be excluded, and how could he Jiang Wei be forced to garrison troops to avoid trouble, Jiang Wei hated Huang Hao to the core.

Seeing Jiang Wei come out and scold Huang Hao angrily, Yan Yu couldn't help but speak again, and retorted: "Lord Huang is a close confidant of His Majesty, and he has done his best for the big man, how can he not be qualified to speak?" As a general, you Jiang Wei can't suppress the enemy outside, and you can't quell the rebellion inside, so what qualifications do you have to stand here? ”

Although Yan Yu doesn't like Huang Hao's style very much, after all, Yan Yu was pulled out by Huang Hao, he still understands this matter, and his identity and prestige are not as good as Jiang Wei, without Huang Hao's help, what to fight with Jiang Wei.

Huang Hao immediately threw a grateful look at Yan Yu, and the two tacitly agreed.

Liu Chan had a headache about the quarrel between Jiang Wei and Yan Yu, both of them were members of the imperial court, and both held military power, he couldn't kill or kill them when he scolded, so he could only skip them, and asked Huang Hao instead: "Huang Hao, who do you want to recommend?" ”

Huang Hao bowed and replied: "The slave maid wants to recommend His Royal Highness the emerging king, His Royal Highness has the merit of escorting His Majesty when he is in trouble, and his status is noble, this time he will be able to show the sincerity of my Han Dynasty!" ”

Liu Chan looked at Liu Xun, and his heart was constantly wandering, judging from the current situation, there is a lack of talents in Shu, and similar to the princes of the clan are not all wine bags and rice bags, for example, Liu Yao has a certain talent, and the troubled times should be eclectic, and it is time to enable the clan, so he asked loudly: "Xun'er, are you willing to send an envoy to Eastern Wu?" ”

Hearing Liu Chan's question, Liu Xun was immediately stunned, he didn't expect that the matter of sending Dongwu would actually fall on him, but he was afraid that if Dongwu really wanted to go to war with the Han Dynasty, I was afraid that he would have no return this time.

Liu Xun hurriedly looked at his brother Liu Rui beside him, he had always looked at Liu Rui as the leader, only to see Liu Rui smile and nod.

At this moment, Liu Rui's heart had already understood Huang Hao's intentions, and he took the first step to inform Liu Rui of the news of the formation of the Yulin Army, so that the Yulin Army would belong to Liu Rui by default without His Majesty appointing a commander.

And now Huang Hao has recommended Liu Xun to envoy to Soochow, wanting to promote Liu Xun, everyone knows that Liu Xun is his own person, and Huang Hao's actions have already indicated that he wants to vote under Liu Rui.

Liu Yao's heart was already a little fluctuating, and at this time he felt deeply powerless, there was no one in the court who supported him, he was completely alone, he could only lament in his heart, and had the idea of retreating, at least he could keep the throne and be an idle prince without lack of food and clothing.

Everyone was waiting for Liu Xun's answer, this is a credit sent to the door, although it may also be a little dangerous, but since ancient times, the two countries have not been at war, and the risk is not great.

After a long time, Liu Xuncai replied with an embarrassed face: "Father, Dongwu is capricious, and his sons are ......."

These words shocked everyone, looking at the emerging king Liu Xun in disbelief, even Liu Rui and Huang Hao were stunned for a moment, and then scolded Liu Xun in their hearts.

Liu Yao was ecstatic in an instant, and secretly said that Liu Xun was really a dou who couldn't be helped, and before others could speak, he hurriedly stood up and took the initiative to ask for help: "Father, the attitude of Dongwu is unknown, there is a certain danger in this mission, Brother Wang is still young, let's let the sons go!" ”

The other people in the side hall also stopped talking, and they never participated in the struggle between the two princes, and they had committed a great taboo by participating in the battle for the prince, and none of them had a good end.

Liu Chan squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Liu Yao, he also understood seven or eight points about the little ninety-nine that Liu Yao thought, and secretly sighed that Liu Yao may have some ambitions, but he does have the ability, but abolishing the elders and establishing the young is the way to bring about his own destruction, and Yuan Shao's lessons from the past are still vivid.

If the crown prince Liu Rui did not make any major mistakes, he would sit firmly on this prince until the day he succeeded to the throne, and all that Liu Yao did was nothing more than a flower in the mirror.

Liu Chan didn't break it, since Liu Yao wanted to fight for merit, then satisfy him and make the prince feel threatened, which could also stimulate the prince's self-motivation, so he said: "Or Yao'er can share my worries!" ”

Liu Yao hurriedly bowed his hand, his expression was full of determination: "This is the duty of the son!" Father's words are serious! ”

"Liu Yao, the king of stability, listens to the seal!" Liu Chan is colorful.

"Erchen is here!"

"Liu Yao, the king of stability, saved the Han Dynasty from peril and recovered the new capital, thwarted the Wei army and saved me from fire and water, and made great contributions, and now he is renamed the king of Qin, and he still eats the city of Anding County, and leads the five officials and Zhonglang generals, and orders him to envoy to Dongwu tomorrow!" Liu Chanlang said.

Liu Yao couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect to receive only the position of a general with five senses, although it was not an official court meeting, but this reward was decided from Liu Chan's mouth.

He doesn't have much interest in the title of King Qin, the title is all false, the Han Dynasty is such a state and a half place, is it possible to really divide a Qin country for himself?

However, the three kings of Qin, Jin, and Chu are the heads of the princes, and they can be on an equal footing with the prince, and they can have their own palace seals, which Liu Yao also understands.

"Son's order is grateful!" Although a little not satisfied, Liu Yao could only accept the order.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness King Qin!" The other ministers in the hall also saluted Liu Yao with their fists, which made Liu Yao a little uncomfortable for a while, and could only return the courtesy one by one.

Liu Chan looked at the people in the hall, since Liu Yao had been rewarded today, he simply promoted other meritorious people in the hall as well, so he said to Huang Hao in front of him: "Huang Hao, make a decree for me, I want to reward the meritorious ministers!" ”

"No!" Huang Hao bowed and quietly retreated.

After a while, he took a pen and an inkstone and a holy decree from the back of the hall, first recorded Liu Yao's reward on it, and then looked at Liu Chan.

Liu Chan saw that Huang Hao was ready, so he said loudly: "This time I was able to get out of danger, the general made great contributions, and gave the general Jiang Wei as the marquis of Xixiang and thousands of households. General Zhuge died in battle, the position of General Zhongwei was temporarily vacant, Zhao Tong was named General Wei, Yan Yu was the general of the hussars, Zhou was Shang Shuling, and Chen Shou was a regular attendant of the scattered cavalry. ”

"Thanksgiving!" The people in the temple said in unison.

Liu Chan looked at Liu Rui and Liu Xun, since he promoted Liu Yao to compete with the prince, it was really unreasonable for the prince's people not to reward him, so he said: "The prince Liu Rui and the emerging king Liu Xun have meritorious service in protecting me when I am in trouble, and they must not be rewarded, and Liu Rui is crowned as the ruling Jin Wuwei, commanding the three thousand Yulin army to protect the palace, and changing the title of the emerging king Liu Xun to the king of Qi. Other meritorious people will be rewarded again tomorrow! ”

"Son-in-law, thank your father for your favor!" Liu Rui and Liu Xun looked happy, and immediately said in unison.

After a reward, these people had different faces, some were happy and some were sad, and some were expressionless.

The most pleasing thing is Liu Xun, he didn't do anything, he got a reward, and he can also enter the court, which is far from the treatment of other princes, Liu Rui is also very happy, now he can justifiably lead the Yulin Army, and the military power in his hands suddenly overshadows Liu Yao.
