"Your Majesty" Zhang Rang came to the harem and found Liu Hong, who was counting next to a pile of gold, silver and jewelry. Only after the dispersal of the dynasty on that day, the heads of various families or officials successively transported the money for disaster relief to the palace.

Liu Hong looked at the growing copper plate mountain in front of him, and he was even more smiling in the past two days, and even these women in the harem Liu Hong have not been favored in the past few days.

"Let my father come," Liu Hong threw away the copper plate in his hand and said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the old minister came today to remind Your Majesty that Xiao Yuan and the generals who suppressed the Yellow Turbans have entered Luoyang one after another," Zhang Rang said with a salute to Liu Hong.

"Oops" Liu Hong patted his head, "I've delayed this matter in the past two days, I don't know if my father has any good opinions."

In fact, the last time the court wanted to reward Xiao Yuan and others, but it was disturbed by He Jin, and Liu Hong forgot about it when he patronized and collected money these days.

"Your Majesty, I can't say too much about Xiao Yuan, after all, it is rumored outside that Xiao Yuan is supported by me, and in fact, it is true, but I still have something I want to remind Your Majesty about Xiao Yuan's appointment."

"Let the Father Speak His Mind"

"Your Majesty, the military power in the hands of the general has become heavier and heavier recently, and he has become less and less concerned about His Majesty, and my purpose of supporting Xiao Yuan for His Majesty also means that the military power is divided from the hands of the general, this world is His Majesty's world, how can I allow others to point fingers at Your Majesty"

Zhang Rang bowed to the ground, his face was a little respectful, and said, "Your Majesty, as for Lu Zhi, the old minister crossed it out of the merit book privately, and the old minister is guilty."

"What, you crossed Lu Zhi off the merit book?" Liu Hong said with a hint of anger in his words.

Although Liu Hong is not a wise emperor, he is an emperor after all, and a subordinate who also crossed off the merit book without passing through him made him angry.

"Your Majesty"

Zhang Rang suddenly knelt down and cried, crying while saying, "The ministers are all from Your Majesty's point of view, Your Majesty."

Liu Hong looked at Zhang Rang who kept kowtowing, and his heart was unbearable, in fact, he also knew that Zhang Rang really cared about him, if these eunuchs didn't have his protection, they probably wouldn't be able to get out of the gate of the mansion, and it was Liu Hong who knew that Zhang Rang had always thought about him, so he didn't care about what he usually did, and blindly humble.

"Okay, let's get better"

"If Your Majesty does not forgive the old minister, the old minister will not get up"

"Get up," Liu Hong said a little decadently, how could he not know what Zhang Rang meant by doing this.

Zhang Rang wiped his tears from the ground and slowly stood up from the ground and said, "Your Majesty Xie"

"What can you do?"

"In fact, the solution is very simple, you only need to hold the military power firmly in your own hands"

"What should I do?" Liu Hong let go of the jewelry in his hand a little dejectedly and sat on the wooden box filled with copper plates.

"In fact, the military power should be firmly grasped in your hands, Your Majesty only needs to pick a few people who can control it and slowly take back control of the army."

"Take back the power of the army? Where is it so easy," Liu Hong said sadly

"You can divide the troops into the hands of different people according to the five battalions of the Northern Army, and directly under the command of Your Majesty, if he wants to take these time roads, and appropriately allocate a few positions to some family members and give them some benefits, I think they will agree."

Liu Hong sat on the box and fell into deep thought, Guan Liu Hong during the family also knew that they were not monolithic, many families did not have military power in hand, if they were given some sweetness at this juncture, although they would encounter some family blockages, but more families would definitely express their support.

"Father, I understand what you mean, Xiao Yuan, what position do you plan to arrange, is this person reliable" Liu Hong's frowning brows finally expanded slightly.

"Xiao Yuan, this kid just went through my door when he first entered the court, and I also investigated this kid and didn't find anything abnormal about this kid, and the relationship with the family is also very clear, so it can be used," Zhang Rang said with certainty.

"Well, but if he reuses it at this time, I'm afraid he will be criticized, after all, he just offended so many people in the court."

Zhang Rang also pondered when he heard Liu Hong say this. Now the general in his hand is also Xiao Yuan, and it would be a pity to let him give up Xiao Yuan.

"Then why don't you hold a competition, and decide the position you hold by rank, so that the meritorious people who participated in the suppression of the Yellow Turban or the people recommended by you can participate, how good does Your Majesty think?"

"Just do as you say, but Lu Zhi also needs to give an explanation" Liu Hong waved his hand and didn't want to discuss this matter, and got into the money pile again.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will take care of this matter"

Soon, the news that Liu Hong was going to form the captain of Xiyuan was spread.

"Ah Gou, Your Majesty wants to form the Eighth Captain of the West Garden, this is an excellent opportunity to grasp the military power, and you must not miss it"

"Yes, Father"

"Originally, this is your chance to spread your prestige, and you must not insult the name of the fourth and third dukes of my Yuan family."

The whole of Luoyang was also made into a storm because of this incident.

Tong Yuan and the others were all stunned when they heard Xiao Yuan say the news

"It seems that Zhang Rang made a trick behind Liu Hong's back"

Xiao Yuan also felt surprised when he heard the news, because he knew that the Eighth Captain of Xiyuan was only formed in 188 AD, but he didn't expect it to be formed three or four years ahead of schedule because of his arrival.

"Yuan'er, do you know what method Your Majesty is going to use to recruit candidates for captain this time?"

Tong Yuan quickly reacted and asked,

"Zhang Rang sent people to say that there should be three competitions, the first competition, the second test strategy, the third test archery, the total score of the three results will be included in the total score, and the candidates for the captain will be selected, and the heroes or recommended people who participated in the Yellow Turban Pacification can participate in it."

Xiao Yuan relayed the news he heard from Zhang Rang to everyone

"Who will participate?" Zhao Yun stood up and asked with some eagerness

"Hehe, don't worry about senior brother, this participation can be under the command of the generals, or you can participate alone, after all, some veterans are not suitable for fighting, killing" Xiao Yuan looked at Zhao Yun's monkey anxious appearance and knew what he was thinking, so he quipped, "Senior brother, you are also in the merit book this time, do you want to be a general?"

"Hehe, junior brother, don't laugh at me, I'll participate under you" Zhao Yun was jokingly scratched his head by Xiao Yuan.

"This is what you said, don't regret it, Yan Liang has to participate alone this time"

'Bang' Yan Liang jumped up from the chair and shook off Wen Chou, who was pulling him next to him, "General, what do you mean, I don't like my old face?"

Xiao Yuan patted his head and said

"Brother Yan, you have to change this problem"

"Big brother, the general trusts you, think about it, if you can still get a ranking, wouldn't the general be able to control more troops"

Yan Liang's rough face suddenly turned red with shame, in fact, he was just excited when he heard Xiao Yuan's words just now, and he regretted it after standing up

"General, Lao Yan will definitely change in the future, hehe"

Xiao Yuan didn't pay attention to Yan Liang, but looked at Zhao Yun and said, "Senior brother, don't have a gap in your heart."

"Senior brother, don't say it again, I understand" Zhao Yun said with a straight face, he understood what Xiao Yuan meant.

"Okay, then three days later, Yan Liang will lead Gao Shun, Lu Qian will be in a group, I will lead Zhao Yun, and Wen Chou will be in a group."

"Whoa"
