Chapter 188: Liu Hong's Decision

In the spring of the fifth year of Zhongping in the Han Dynasty (188), in the palace hall of the imperial capital Luoyang, Liu Hong frowned and looked at the ministers who were arguing in front of him, and was dissatisfied. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Recently, Liu Hong felt that his health was getting worse and worse, so he planned to choose the crown prince among the princes, who knew that the topic had just been thrown, and the ministers above the court were arguing, judging from the current situation, the general He Jin's side occupied this absolute advantage.

Of course, there is still good news, Cai Yong, Liu Chong and other ministers expressed their support for their ideas. In Liu Hong's heart, his favorite is the prince Liu Xie, his mother Wang Meiren is knowledgeable, gentle and virtuous, thinking of this, Liu Hong has a gloomy face, looking at He Jin and others. Regarding the cause of Wang Meiren's death, Liu Hong has some clues, but the evidence is insufficient, which is one of the reasons why he doesn't like Liu Wei.

"Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the elders have not been passed on to the young, and the rules of the ancestors cannot be broken..."

"The prince Liu Xie favors Hui, because he is idle..."

Liu Hong looked at these ministers who were usually sven and gentle, and they had to intervene if they wanted to set up a prince, the more they thought about it, the more angry they became, and then they coughed suddenly.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem..."

"Your Majesty?" Zhang Rang asked anxiously on the side.

Seeing Liu Hong waving his hand, he stepped forward and dragged the male duck and shouted: "Silence! What kind of system is the noisy shouting above the court! ”

Zhang Rang's voice immediately shouted to all the ministers to shut up, not that they were all afraid of him, but that his voice made people extremely uncomfortable to hear.

Liu Hong cleared his throat and said weakly: "Since everyone can't argue, let's discuss it in the future!" ”

The rebellion in Youzhou has already upset Liu Hong, and now the candidate for the crown prince is opposed by many ministers. The ministers are disobedient, naturally there are obedient people, Zhang Rang has followed Liu Hong for many years, and naturally understands Liu Hong's thoughts, so he turned around and smiled at Liu Hong, and after getting a positive answer, he shouted at the throat of the male duck: "Retreat from the dynasty..."!

However, before the words fell, a voice came from outside the hall, "Great victory, great victory in Youzhou!" ”

The court, which had been quiet, exploded again, and in recent days it has been quarreling over the choice of the crown prince, but the rebellion in Youzhou has been ignored. Since it was a great victory, Liu Hong was naturally happy, tidied up his clothes, sat on the dragon chair, and waited for the retribution!

After a while, Liu Hong laughed three times, and then got up and said: "My Pingbei general has made great contributions again, and the Youzhou rebellion has been quelled!." ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Hong motioned for Zhang Rang to read the report. Forced by the fear of Zhang Rang's throat, most of the ministers did not listen carefully, but Huo Yu's exploits were indeed remembered clearly. As for He Jin, at this moment, he had already left behind the fact that Cai Yong and Liu Chong did not support him to appoint Liu Wei as the prince, and he didn't want to lose Huo Yu, a general who could fight well, so he praised Huo Yu again and asked for credit for the soldiers.

Liu Hong heard He Jin's words clearly. As for the reward, it was automatically filtered out by Liu Hong, and several words were mentioned. Faced with the general's aggressive posture, Zhang Rang reminded Liu Hong in a whisper. After listening to Zhang Rang's reminder, Liu Hong's eyes lit up, so he spoke: "In this Youzhou rebellion, the Wuhuan people are unforgivable!" passed the edict, crowned Huo Yu as the general of the expedition to the north, and sent troops to fight. Reward them when they win! ”

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Isn't the general willing to crusade against the Wuhuan people?" Liu Hong said with a gloomy face.

"Your Majesty, the minister means that the war has just ended, and it is really taboo to send troops at this moment!" He Jin hurriedly explained.

"Your Majesty, the general's words are not bad!" Huangpu Song echoed the road.

After that, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China went out one by one to echo them. Liu Hong didn't use the army, he just found an excuse and didn't want to pay. With the minister's objection, Liu Hong borrowed the words of the donkey from the slope and said: "Then we will send troops after resting!" When I return victoriously, I will be rewarded! ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Hong turned to leave, Zhang Rang shouted "retreat" at the throat of the male duck, and then ran in the direction of Liu Hong.

"Brother Zu Rong?" Cai Yong had just spoken, but was stopped by Liu Pet waving his hand.

"Lord Cai, His Royal Highness King Chen, can you enjoy your face and talk about it tonight?" He Jin said with a smile.

Cai Yong and Liu Chong glanced at each other and then replied at the same time: "The general is invited, so naturally he doesn't dare to refuse." ”

In the Taishou Mansion of Xiangping City in Liaodong, Huo Yu accompanied the four ladies to finish dinner, and hurriedly went to the study. After the end of the war, Liaodong held a large-scale ceremony of entering the cemetery of the heroic soul, among the fallen soldiers who entered the park this time, not only included the soldiers of the Liaodong Army, the white horse of Gongsun Zhan and the foot soldiers, and even the wolf riders composed of the Xianbei people who died in the battle were also in the ranks. Gongsun Zhan's spiritual position was personally sent by Huo Yu.

As for the settling-in allowance, all soldiers were equal, and there was no distinction of rank or race. This move not only made the blood boil for those Xianbei people and Wuhuan people who had recently surrendered, but the old generals on Gongsun Zhan's side were even more tearful. So far, Huo Yu has completely subdued the heart of Bai Ma Yicong, and has also laid a solid foundation for its smooth adaptation.

"Senior Brother Shi, is there something important about returning in such a hurry? Are my father-in-law and father all right? Can the shadows be in place? Huo Yu hurriedly walked into the study, and before Shi A could speak, he threw three questions one after another.

"Back to my lord, the two adults are well! The shadows are all in place, His Majesty passed the edict, crowned the lord as the general of the expedition to the north, and ordered the lord to crusade against Wuhuan! Shi Ah said unhurriedly.

"Haha, it's really sleepy, someone will send a pillow! Senior Brother Shi has worked hard all the way, let's rest first! ”

Looking at Shi A's departing back, Huo Yu smiled slightly, and then said to Dian Wei outside the door: "Hurry up and invite the three gentlemen to come!" ”

After a stick of incense, Xun You, Xi Zhicai, and Guo Jia came together, and the three of them sat down in turn after seeing the salute, Dian Wei consciously retreated to the door, and mobilized guards to protect the three layers in the study.

"Three gentlemen, my desire to conquer Wuhuan coincides with Your Majesty. The edict will arrive soon! ”

"Lord, it is not easy to send troops at this moment, not to mention the lack of food and grass, the soldiers need to rest after the war, and the newly replenished soldiers still need to be trained!" Xi Zhicai was the first to speak.

"Well, I think so!" Xun You followed closely.

Looking at Guo Jia, who was silent, Huo Yu asked, "Why didn't Fengxiao dissuade him?" ”

"Jia, just march and fight! What's more, the lord had already premeditated, so why should Jia ask more! ”

"Those who know me are filial piety!"

After finishing speaking, Huo Yu then said to Xi Zhicai and Xun You: "The worries of the two gentlemen, Yu knows in his heart. After the autumn harvest, it is not too late to send troops. ”

After that, the four of them gathered around the map and discussed it carefully. Three days later, a general came out of the Taishou Mansion in Liaodong, and then the four counties of Liaodong, Liaoxi, Xuansu, and Youbeiping successively received Huo Yu's generals and began a large-scale military training in full swing.
