Everyone seemed to have forgotten the previous unhappiness, and a few rounds of wine passed quickly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Ahem." Emperor Xian coughed lightly, and everyone in the hall instantly quieted down, only to hear Emperor Xian say: "General Zhenbei has been guarding the frontier for the country for several years, and he has worked hard, and everyone under his command is also conscientious, why don't you send this person to the central government to assist Zhang Qing in the state, govern the place, and share his pressure?" ā
The hall was like an air conditioner, the temperature dropped suddenly, and several officials who were closer to the door unconsciously put down their wine glasses, then lifted their shirts and tightened their collars.
"What does Your Majesty mean?" Zhang Zai's tone was a little cold.
You want to divide the soldiers of the Northern Army, I endured it, I want to win over the generals, I also endure, but now, you directly want to seize the foundation of the Northern Army and meddle in the affairs of the state, I really don't know where the confidence comes from.
Give you grain, grass, cloth, that's because you are a member of the royal family, an emperor, and there is still some use, if this is a time when the world is in chaos and the heroes are rising, who cares if you are a puppet emperor.
Emperor Xian looked at Zhang Zai, who suddenly changed his face, and became a little cowardly, but then thought that he was now in the city, and he still had thousands of troops, Emperor Xian said inwardly: "It's just that Zhang Qing has to deal with government affairs and military affairs, and I am afraid that Zhang Qing will be tired, so I will find someone to share the burden for Qing." ā
Zhang Zai looked at Emperor Xian expressionlessly, arched his hand and said: "Don't look at Your Majesty's concerns, some small things, the minister can still deal with them." ā
"What, does Aiqing want to disobey?"
"The minister doesn't dare, but the people of the state are fierce, if there is any accident, please forgive the minister for not being able to protect him." After speaking, Zhang Zai got up, looked at Emperor Xian and bowed lightly, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is running all the way, and he is a little too strong to drink, so he will retire first." ā
After speaking, regardless of Emperor Tieqing's face and Yang Biao's retention, he got up and walked out directly.
And Luo Cheng and Zhao Yun were also disappointed in Emperor Xian, and after bowing down, they followed Zhang Zai out without saying a word.
Threat, naked threat, Emperor Xian heard Zhang Zai's words, and burst into a shout on the spot: "Someone! ā
In an instant, more than a dozen soldiers blocked the way of Zhang Zai and the others.
"Take this minister down to me!"
"Hurry up!"
However, no matter how Emperor Xian shouted, these soldiers did not make any further moves, but just confronted Zhang Zai and the others, but their eyes looked at Yang Feng and the others, waiting for the instructions of the two of them.
There was silence in the field, and all the ministers watched this scene, the order of the emperor was too fast, and when they reacted, it developed to the point in front of them.
Fortunately, Yang Feng and Li Le knew the proportions, and they couldn't move now, otherwise once the Northern Expeditionary Army outside the city went crazy, I was afraid that everyone present would have to be buried with them, so they didn't say a word at will, and even shook their heads slightly at the soldiers.
Zhang Zai turned around and glanced at Emperor Xian, then pushed away the soldiers who were blocking the way, and left without looking back.
As for these soldiers, without the orders of Yang Feng and others, they naturally did not dare to stop Zhang Zai and others, so they could only get out of the way and let the three of them leave.
Emperor Xian looked at Zhang Zai who was leaving, his fists were clenched, he bit his lip heavily, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, now he finally understood his situation, he was just a vase, even a bargaining chip.
"Your Majesty?"
Zhang Zai's figure disappeared in front of everyone's eyes, and Yang Biao on the side called Emperor Xian a few times.
Emperor Xian watched the figures of Zhang Zai and the three disappear, only then did he come back to his senses, reached out and wiped the corners of his mouth, because he was too hard, he bit his lip and spilled some blood.
"I'm tired, let's go down and rest first, and the Qing family will continue to drink."
Emperor Xian left, everyone in the hall breathed a sigh of relief, even they felt that Emperor Xian had done a little too much, and tens of thousands of people from the Northern Army came to help, only giving people a first-order official position, and that's it, but they also had to take away the foundation of others, which was too ugly.
If they were treated like this and didn't turn their faces on the spot, they would already have self-cultivation, these old ministers loyal to the Han family, seeing Emperor Xian treat heroes like this, I don't know whether to be happy or sad.
From the perspective of the royal family, perhaps Emperor Xian has the qualifications to become a generation of Ming Jun, but as a courtier, it is inevitable that some rabbits and foxes will die and be miserable, and they will be treated like this by Emperor Xian, so where will they go?
Coming out of the mansion, even Zhang Zai, who had a vague guess, didn't care about Emperor Xian's words, but Luo Cheng and Zhao Yun beside him were upset for Zhang Zai.
Out of the mansion, Luo Cheng, who was Zhang Zai's cousin, said directly: "Lord, why don't we just leave directly, don't care about the emperor anymore, and go back to Bingzhou directly." ā
Although Zhao Yun on the side did not speak, there was also obvious intention in his eyes, he had always thought that the Han family was orthodox in the world, and all the people of the Han Dynasty should do their best to protect the Han family, but now, the emperor he saw was a big disappointment.
"Zilong, how do you think we should choose now?" Zhang Zai ignored Luo Cheng's proposal, but looked at Zhao Yun, who was speechless, and asked with interest.
"The clouds don't know." A trace of confusion flashed in Zhao Yun's eyes, he wanted to say what the way of a monarch and a minister, but there was a voice in his heart, telling him that he should not continue to work for the Han family, and for a while, he didn't know what to do to be right.
"Well, let's go, go back to the barracks first, and then discuss." Zhang Zai let out a long sigh and rode his horse out of the city.
In the evening, the soldiers guarding the gate came to report, and someone outside the camp gate claimed to be Yang Biao, the imperial lieutenant, and came to visit.
Zhang Zai personally went to welcome Yang Biao to the big tent of the Chinese army, invited Yang Biao to sit down, and then asked, "I don't know what Captain Yang is doing here?" ā
"Specially for today's things." Yang Biao saw that Zhang Zai was expressionless, and he also knew that Emperor Xian had hated Zhang Zai today, and it was normal for Zhang Zai to be angry in his heart, so he didn't care about Zhang Zai's coldness.
Who knew that Zhang Zai snorted coldly after hearing this, and said, "What, is Lord Taiwei here to persuade a certain to withdraw from the army?" It just so happened that a certain person also had this intention, and he was annoyed by Mrs. Yang's communication, and early tomorrow morning, a certain person immediately pulled out the camp and returned to the state. ā
"Don't think about it, the old man is not here to persuade the general to withdraw his troops, on the contrary, the old man also wants to ask the general to escort His Majesty to Luoyang." Yang Biao saw that Zhang Zai had misunderstood his intentions, and hurriedly explained, and he didn't expect that Zhang Zai would care so much about today's events.
How could Zhang Zai care about a child's words, but he still had to do what he should do, Zhang Zai smiled coldly: "Why, Your Majesty doesn't want to keep a certain army general, and at the same time send another state pastor?" ā
Yang Biao smiled bitterly: "The general is too careful, Your Majesty has no such intention, but he was confused for a while and said the wrong thing, why should the general take it to heart." ā
"Is what Captain Yang said true?" Jang Zai asked with a pretended puzzled expression.
"Seriously." After speaking, Yang Biao bowed directly to Zhang Zai and said, "The old man apologizes to the general on behalf of His Majesty." ā
