Chapter 301: 60,000 Soldiers and Horses

Lord Zhu glanced at Zhao Yi: "I heard that Lord Zhao appointed the county guard and the lieutenant of the new county without the approval of the imperial court, I don't know if it is true?"

As soon as Lord Zhu said this, it caused an uproar in the imperial court, and Zhao Yun's face became extremely ugly. Those officials who were not used to Zhao Yi in the first place were talking about it after hearing this, saying that Zhao Yi was proud of his high merits and did not put the court in his eyes.

Zhao Yi had already told Emperor Han Ling about this matter, so when he heard Lord Zhu's words, he didn't take it too seriously, and his face did not change in the slightest: "This official has already informed Your Majesty about this matter yesterday, does Lord Zhu know?"

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Lord Zhu's face suddenly became very ugly, and he glanced at Zhang Rang hatefully, and secretly said that this eunuch was insidious, since Zhao Yi had already told Emperor Han Ling about this matter, and Zhao Yi was still standing here safely, it meant that Emperor Han Ling did not punish Zhao Yi. It's so stupid to come out of this way now.

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, the officials who said just now that Zhao Yi had the intention of rebellion immediately changed their angles and said that Master Zhu had framed Zhongliang and wanted to subvert the imperial court.

Zhang Rang glanced at Zhao Yi, and hated Zhao Yi very much in his heart, when Zhao Yi explained the matter yesterday, he did not tell him about Xinjun, if Zhao Yi said this, then Zhang Rang would not signal Lord Zhu to participate in Zhao Yi, but now it is good that Zhang Rang has become a difficult trend to ride a tiger.

Seeing that the hundreds of officials of the court condemned each other, Zhang Rang secretly said in his heart that these officials were grassy, but he was also thinking about how to deal with this matter in his heart. Zhang Rang secretly said in his heart that Zhao Yi is extremely smart, and he should be able to guess from what he said just now that he and Master Zhu already have a tacit understanding. It will be difficult for the relationship between the two sides to ease again.

This time, Zhang Rang wanted to use this incident to trample Zhao Yi under his feet, but he didn't expect this situation to appear, and watched He Jin lead his words to himself. Zhang Rang looked at Master Zhu, who was still arguing with the hundred officials, and sighed secretly, so far, he can only lose the small and the big.

Zhang Rang first jumped out and shouted, saying that Master Zhu had framed Zhao Yi and that he had been deceived by him, and then apologized to Zhao Yi and said that he believed the wrong person, and asked Zhao Yi not to be surprised.

"Lord Chang is busy with affairs, and it's normal not to check some things. Moreover, there was nothing wrong with Lord Zhu's words, although the official acted expediently at that time, but he did not get the approval of the imperial court, although Lord Zhu's words were extreme, they were full of loyalty. This official will not care. ”

As soon as Zhao Yi said these two words, the court immediately praised continuously, and even Lord Zhu's face has changed significantly, now Zhao Yi has become the emperor's favor as the marshal of the expedition to the west, if Zhao Yi opens his mouth at this time to deal with Lord Zhu, Lord Zhu will definitely die without a place to be buried, in the face of the one-sided condemnation of everyone in the court, Zhang Rang behind Lord Zhu will not only not help but help, but will also stomp on Lord Zhu's face a few times.

Lord Zhu was ready to be dismissed by the imperial court, but he didn't expect Zhao Yi to say such words, which greatly surprised Lord Zhu's expectations, and he was speechless for a while.

Zhao Yun glanced at Zhao Yi appreciatively, and secretly said in his heart that Zhao Yi's two sentences were very beautiful, if Zhao Yi relied on the emperor's favor to punish Lord Zhu, the hundred officials would not say anything now, but they also remembered Zhao Yi's character, and it was okay that Zhao Yi's career would be smooth sailing in the future, if there was a big mistake. Then these court officials who dare not speak now will definitely fall into the well and trample Zhao Yi under their feet.

Zhao Yun nodded secretly, and he couldn't get carried away. Zhao Yi has really matured a lot.

Zhang Rang listened to Zhao Yi's words, the smile on his face became even more blunt, and the more decent Zhao Yi said, the more insidious he became.

Because of Zhao Yi's intercession, Emperor Han Ling did not blame Lord Zhu.

"Since Lord Zhu has raised this matter, presumably all the adults in the court have this concern. All of you are here at today's court meeting, and it's time to discuss the candidates for the new county guard. Zhao Yi took advantage of the situation to tell this matter, "In this way, lest adults say that I Zhao Yi is nepotistic." ”

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, He Jin and Zhang Rang's faces were not very good-looking, in fact, they all coveted the position of the county guard of the new county, and wanted their cronies to do it. If the new county can be governed in an orderly manner, then the person can be appointed to a higher office. But now as soon as Zhao Yi said this, He Jin and Zhang Rang didn't dare to speak.

Zhao Yi grasped the timing very accurately, and established an upright image for himself in two simple sentences, if He Jin and Zhang Rang opened their mouths, they would be deducted by the other party as nepotism. At that time, the two sides will argue with each other, and maybe in the end they will not be able to argue for a reason, if so, it is better not to speak.

The noisy court just now became silent, and at this time, the recital of the Youzhou Mansion came here, and Emperor Han Ling opened it and looked at it and said, "Okay." Immediately handed the piece to Zhang Rang.

There is nothing else in the recital, it is the political achievements of Cheng Yin's Gongsun Du during this time. This Gongsun Du is indeed a talent who governs the prefecture and county, and in just a few days, he has packed up the remnants of Goguryeo.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty asked Zhang Rang to see the meaning of this piece, and if he wanted to let him guess one or two, he immediately stood up and said: "Lord Zhao knows how to make good use of people, and now the situation in the new county is becoming more and more stable, and the old slave proposes to let Gongsun Du be the county guard of the new county."

When He Jin heard this, he also guessed the things on the chapter, although Emperor Han Ling did not speak, it seemed that he had already acquiesced in his heart, the things that the emperor had already decided in his heart, even if He Jin tried hard for himself, there would be no result, and he would offend Zhao Yi because of this matter. This matter is a foregone conclusion, He Jin might as well push the boat with the water. Therefore, He Jin also agreed to Gongsun Du as the county guard of Xinjun.

Emperor Ling of Han nodded, asked Zhang Rang to repeat the words on the chapter, and then announced that Gongsun Du was the county guard of Dongjun.

He Jin and Zhang Rang both knew that Zhao Yi was extremely powerful in Youzhou, so He Jin and Zhang Rang didn't pay much attention to the news reported by Youzhou, because the truth of this matter was very low, and the reason why they were all in one mouth was because the emperor had already preconceived after reading the chapter and agreed to Gongsun Du as the county guard of Dongjun. Not to mention that Zhang Rang and He Jin have no suitable candidates in their hands now, even if there were, they would not express their dissatisfaction with Gongsun Du now.

Now Emperor Zhao Yi is favored, and Zhao Yi has just been appointed as the generalissimo of the expedition to the west, not to mention the rest of the things, just talking about the matter of conquering the northern palace Boyu, the court officials have to let Zhao Yi. Even if Zhao Yi committed any crimes during this period, the imperial court would deal with it in the future in order to stabilize the morale of the army. So these officials won't say anything, these people, like He Jin and Zhang Rang, are also waiting for an opportunity.

Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty said that after the soldiers and horses were ready, he would go out for Zhao Yi and other soldiers of the three armies, and the court meeting was announced to end. When he went to the court, Zhang Rang called Zhao Yi aside and talked about today's affairs in the court, saying that Lord Zhu had greeted him earlier, and Zhang Rang did not act against Zhao Yi, but for the Han court, hoping that Zhao Yi would not blame him.

Zhang Rang knew very well what Zhao Yi was doing in his heart, but it was not yet time for the two sides to tear their faces, Zhao Yi arched his hand and said that he understood his hard work and did not take this matter to heart.

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Zhang Rang's face showed joy, and after praising Zhao Yi for a few words, he said that he was busy with affairs and left here.

Zhang Rang left, and He Jin, who was in the shadows, also came out of the shadows and said to Zhao Yi Don't believe Zhang Rang's rhetoric, it can be seen from today's events that Zhang Rang already has the mind to deal with Zhao Yi. He Jin instructed Zhao Yi not to take it lightly, fighting against someone like Zhang Rang, if he was not careful, he might die without a place to be buried.

"Thank you for the general's reminder, Bo Lai already knows about this matter, Bo Lai will go to Xiliang in a few days, and if there is any wind and grass in the court in the future, I want the general to take care of it." Zhao Yi said a kind word.

When He Jin heard Zhao Yi's words, the corners of his mouth showed joy, and he said that Zhao Yi should rest assured that he would go out with peace of mind, and Lord Zhao Yun would have him He Jin take care of him.

The two of them walked out of the palace gate with a smile and a smile, and Dian Wei, who was waiting outside the palace gate, saw Zhao Yi coming out, took two steps forward and just wanted to say something, when he saw He Jin behind Zhao Yi, he immediately closed his mouth and waited for Zhao Yi to come out.

Dian Wei is a reckless man who doesn't know how to hide his emotions, seeing Dian Wei's appearance, a discerning person can see that Dian Wei has something hidden in his heart. In order to win He Jin's trust, Zhao Yi asked: "What does General Dian Wei have to tell him?" ”

Hearing Zhao Yi's words, Dian Wei showed a relieved smile on his face and told the matter: "My lord, the 60,000 soldiers of Jizhou have now arrived in the city, and the letter written by Lord Zhu Jun of Jizhou to the imperial court has not yet been reported. ”

He Jin frowned when he heard the 60,000 soldiers in Jizhou, and glanced at Zhao Yi: "Bolai, who are these 60,000 soldiers and horses?" ”

"Oh." Zhao Yi seemed to think of something, "I forgot to tell the general yesterday about this matter, these 60,000 soldiers were seconded from the subordinate from Jizhou Mu Zhu Jun. Although the imperial court requisitioned soldiers and horses from Qingxu and Yangzhou and Yangzhou, there were still too few soldiers and horses, so I seconded some from Lord Zhu, so that nothing went wrong. ”

"Yes, Bolai has a very careful plan." He Jin praised it, but he was quite dissatisfied with Zhao Yi's approach in his heart, the reason why he did not let the officials and soldiers of Youzhou enter the customs this time was for the stability of Youzhou, and secondly, to let Zhao Yi, who used soldiers like a god, have no available cronies and soldiers under him.

But he didn't expect Zhu Jun to intervene sideways, with the 60,000 soldiers in Jizhou, Zhao Yi's strength in the army was a head higher than Sun Jian and Cao Cao, which was very inconsistent with He Jin's plan. But now that the soldiers and horses have arrived outside the city, and it has been explained that it is for the matter of Beigong Boyu, He Jin can only pat his chest and promise that he will try his best to deal with this matter for Zhao Yi.

After He Jin left, Dian Wei leaned up and whispered in Zhao Yi's ear: "My lord, I have asked the details of the strong man." ”
