Chapter 180: Go to Luoyang and fool Liu Hong
The Yuan family, the Wei family, and He Jin, who had borrowed the hands of bandits before, couldn't kill them, but now they actually sent troops directly.
They are really bold enough.
Searching for Shen Qiang's army was doomed to be useless.
Although they also suspected that it was Zhang Ming and them, but without Shen Qiang, no one dared to order an attack, the other party was too strong.
The important thing is that Shen Qiang told them before that Zhang Ming and his gang were bandits, but now they can't sneak attack, and another insider doesn't dare to attack them.
The strong attack can't be defeated, as long as Zhang Ming shows his identity and takes out the holy decree, his subordinates will not dare to continue to do it at that time.
By dawn, Zhang Ming and the others were not disturbed, so he continued to set off towards Luoyang with his army.
Zhang Ming didn't let Shen Qiang go, nor did he kill him, but took it directly.
All the way to Luoyang, the next journey was much smoother.
Zhang Ming: They didn't encounter any more situations outside of Luoyang.
"Lord, what's the use of keeping this Shen Qiang?"
Outside Luoyang, Xu Huang asked very incomprehensibly.
"This is a means that we can use at any time, and the ugliness of several families is afraid of being shaken out, maybe this Shen Qiang can play a role."
Zhang Ming is back again, back to Luoyang.
The Yuan family, the Wei family, and He Jin had long known the news that Zhang Ming was still alive.
He Jin was furious and called He Miao over to scold.
"Big brother, even if Zhang Ming didn't die, he didn't know that we did it, we just hinted at the Yuan family and the Wei family, and didn't do it ourselves."
He Miao thought that what he was doing was very hidden, but without the permission of the general, he Yuan family and Wei family could not do it without the permission of the general.
Therefore, many people can actually guess that this Shen Qiang is the commander of the army, and without the acquiescence from above, how dare he mobilize the army to intercept and kill Zhang Ming by himself.
Zhang Ming...
Bringing people into Luoyang is destined to attract the attention of all parties.
"Husband, this Luoyang is really magnificent." Xiao Qiao likes to join in the fun, and he is covered by Zhang Ming, and he is even more lawless.
Although Da Qiao is more gentle, after all, he is still a teenager, and he is also very interested in seeing the lively Luoyang.
Zhang Ming said to Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, and then the group went to Cai Yong's mansion and lived here directly.
For the army, Cai's mansion could only arrange two hundred people, and the rest were scattered into various industries in Luoyang to live temporarily.
"When I came to Luoyang, I have to meet old friends."
Zhang Ming is looking forward to coming to Luoyang and coming to the center of this storm.
After resting for two days, Zhang Ming settled the soldiers, after all, there was no one in Cai Yong's mansion, and the previous people were disbanded, and now they had to rely on Zhang Ming to support them.
Two days later, Zhang Rang sent someone to pick up Zhang Ming.
"Palace, I'm here again."
The emperor summoned Zhang Ming, and Zhang Ming entered the palace again.
"Minister, Zhang Ming knocks on Your Majesty."
This time, Zhang Ming saw Liu Hong again, but Liu Hong's face was very bad.
"Aiqing, get up."
Liu Hong's voice was very weak.
Zhang Ming was given a seat.
After sitting down, Liu Hong asked again: "Zhang Aiqing, when will the immortal medicine be found?" ”
Liu Hong already felt that he was dying.
Zhang Ming stood up, clasped his hands into fists, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, rest assured, we have found the periphery of Immortal Island, but to enter the real Immortal Island, we still need a larger ship, because there is an eye of the storm." ”
"It is expected that in ten days, my subordinates will return to the voyage, and a batch of treasures will be sent to Luoyang in a month, Your Majesty will give me another five years, and I will definitely go to the fairy island to seek the immortal medicine."
Zhang Ming said impassionedly, but Liu Hong was not happy at all.
Five years, five years is too far away.
Liu Hong already knew that he would not live long.
He was in a hurry to set up the eighth lieutenant, which was to arrange the afterlife.
"Aiqing, five years is too long, I'm afraid..."
Liu Hong didn't say anything, at this time he already decided in his heart that he couldn't live that long.
"Your Majesty, going to sea requires a lot of manpower and material resources, the taxes collected by the ministers, and the captured prisoners, in addition, a group of displaced people have been recruited, all of which have been used, if you speed up again, I am afraid that the people of Liaodong will be miserable."
"Actually, at this time, Liaodong was already struggling, and it was no different from the people's poor lives."
Zhang Ming said this, but Liu Hong didn't know how to answer.
Liu Hong was silent for a while and then said, "If there are enough manpower and material resources, how long will it take?" ”
"Your Majesty, the minister can guarantee that within three years, the immortal medicine will be recovered."
Zhang Ming's promise gave Liu Hong a glimmer of hope.
But three years is still too long.
"Aiqing, is there a faster way?"
Liu Hong is in a hurry, his body is very weak now, and he doesn't react when he sees the fairy without clothes.
Zhang Ming was silent for a while and then said, "Your Majesty, it can't be faster, but I will send some immortal treasures next month, maybe there will be something to prolong life." ”
A hint of brilliance appeared in Liu Hong's eyes, although there is no immortal elixir, but there is also a medicine that can prolong life, so you can wait.
"Good, good, good, once the immortal treasure arrives, send it immediately."
Liu Hong is hopeful.
Before leaving, Zhang Ming asked Liu Hong to be pious in the near future, and the effect of taking immortal medicine is good.
In fact, he asked him not to get close to women.
Quitting female sex for a while, plus Zhang Ming's medicine, should make him feel better.
Zhang Ming left from the emperor, and then went to the empress.
Zhang Ming gave the queen many gifts, most of which were liked by women.
Seeing the queen this time, she is much younger and more beautiful than last time, and the various cosmetics given by Zhang Ming are still very useful.
At the queen's place, Zhang Ming didn't dare to stay longer, so he stayed for less than an hour and left the palace.
Next, Zhang Ming received the task of the eighth lieutenant to help Jian Shuo train the army.
Jian Shuo, a great eunuch, generally served the emperor in the palace, and the matter of training the army was completely handed over to Zhang Ming.
This Jian Shuo also went to check on the army occasionally, and most of them stayed in the palace.
In such a situation, it is strange to be able to manage the army well, and the army does not know whose surname it is.
Other people's armies don't know, at least the 5,000 troops that Zhang Ming has in his hands are definitely the same as his surname.
In Luoyang, the atmosphere is slowly changing.
Tensions are growing.
Zhang Ming and the eunuchs are on the one side, the family represented by the Yuan family is on the one side, and then the relatives represented by He Jin are on the one side.
The three parties are full of contradictions, and there is a great conflict over the issue of succession to the throne.
Soon, a month passed.
Zhang Ming deliberately exchanged a lot of things, and then prepared to enter the palace to see the driver.
In the palace, the emperor is already looking forward to it.
When Zhang Ming arrived, Liu Hong was very excited.
"Aiqing, Aiqing..."
Liu Hong said excitedly, but he was even weaker.
Liu Hong, whose face was a little pale, was obviously very sick.
"Your Majesty."
After Zhang Ming saw the salute, the emperor said: "Aiqing, can there be an immortal medicine?" ”
Zhang Ming nodded, and then said: "Your Majesty, I have found an immortal medicine, although it cannot live forever, it can cure diseases, but this method of curing diseases is more peculiar. ”
