Chapter 17: A Thousand Troubles (I)

After experiencing so many winds and waves, Liu Futong's current character is ten times more cautious than in his early years. After settling Han Lin'er's mother and son, he immediately ordered Sheng Wenyu, who participated in politics, to draft an order for himself, and quickly summoned the old brothers in the Yingzhou Red Scarf who had seen Han Lin'er's mother and son back to Bianliang for discussion.

Everyone was surprised and delighted when they got the news that Han Lin'er was still alive. Immediately put down the business at hand and go back to the starry night. After arriving at Bianliang, they lined up again and went to Yanfu Palace to visit. I used almost all kinds of usable temptation tricks, and it took half a month to toss before I unanimously determined that Han Lin'er's mother and son were genuine.

"Since the young master is still here, why don't we help him ascend to the throne as soon as possible and order the red scarf in the world? Luo Wensu, the governor of the political council, was the most active in his thinking, and after confirming that Han Lin'er was not a fake, he immediately thought of the huge opportunities contained in it.

"Exactly... If it weren't for the merit of King Ming's righteousness, how could I get the situation of my red scarf today? It is reasonable to be reasonable, we should all assist the young master to ascend the throne in order to inherit the will of King Ming..."Deputy Wanhu Cui De's reaction was not slow, and he echoed loudly after Luo Wensu.

"That's nature, I've been waiting for this day for a long time..."

"The young master is destined by heaven, which one is not convinced, our old white will be the first to go to him..."

"In the past, when the young master was not there, Xu Shouhui dared to be arrogant. Now that the young master has been recovered by us, look at what face Xu Shouhui still has, to be his Tianwan Emperor? …”

Sha Liu Er, Bai Buxin, Wang Shicheng and other generals also followed up. lest one step later fall behind others.

It's not that everyone wants to support the merit, but the current situation is too mysterious. Originally, according to their prestige and qualifications, Yingzhou Red Scarves were the best in the world, and it was natural to command the heroes. But in the past two years, the development of Yingzhou red scarves has been far behind by the East Road red scarves controlled by Sesame Li and Zhu Chongjiu.

In particular, Zhu Chongjiu, when Sesame Li, Zhao Junyong and others were defeated all the way last year, he relied on his own strength to resist the north-south attack of the two official armies of Totok and Dong Junxiao. And at the critical moment, he decisively crossed the sea to the north, forcing him to escape and have to return to his division to save himself. Immediately, the Huai'an army skillfully used a divisive plan, making Dong Junxiao and Fang Guozhen turn against each other, and then completely annihilate the Dong family army under Jiangwan City. In the end, he made full use of the Mongol emperor's distrust of Tokhtar to create an incident among a group of enemy generals, forcing the imperial court to change generals on the spot, and replacing Tokhtar with mediocrity. The hundreds of thousands of elites who were painstakingly transferred from all over the north by the Mengyuan Imperial Court scattered in a hurry, and less than the first three percent returned to Jinan alive...

At the same time, the other red scarves are fighting in the north. The two red scarves in the north and south were defeated successively, and Meng Haima and King Bu were killed. Tianwan Red Turban was defeated by Mengyuan, Sichuan Province, Pingzhang Answer, Badulu father and son, and several leading generals were trapped on one side and could not care for each other. Even the Yingzhou Red Scarf himself was forced by Zhang Liangbi, Li Siqi and other thieves to take the initiative to retreat from Henan and Nanyang and retreat to Runing and Bianliang.

It can be said that in the past year, it has been the Huai'an Army and the family, supporting the remnants of the Red Turban Army. If it weren't for the most critical moment, the Mengyuan court transferred Chahan Timur and Li Siqi to cooperate with Tofu to pursue and kill Zhu Chongjiu, maybe Bianliang might fall back into the hands of the Yuan army. After Han Lin'er's mother and son came this time, there was no suitable place for them to stay.

Under the strength of the other, the order originally sent from the Yingzhou Red Scarf to the East Road Red Scarf became more and more ineffective. Not only did Zhu Chongjiu turn a deaf ear to the orders of Yingzhou's side, but Mao Gui, Guo Zijing, Zhang Shicheng, Zhu Chongba, etc., who were attached to him, also followed the example and did not use bean bags as dry food at all.

Therefore, starting from the overall interests of the Yingzhou Red Turban, it has become a top priority to compete with the Huai'an Red Turban for the leadership of the heroes of the world. Otherwise, it may not be long before Zhu Chongjiu will become the second Xu Shouhui, brazenly self-reliant, and fight against Bianliang's side.

However, ideas are ideas, and when it comes to specific operations, eating cannot be so ugly. At least, Liu Futong, the generalissimo of the red scarf, is still absolutely sober at the moment, and he refuses to immediately adopt everyone's proposal.

"Brothers, don't worry, we naturally have the responsibility to support the young master's accession to the throne...", pressing his arm hard around, he loudly interrupted the hustle and bustle around him, "After all, the young master has just returned, and his reputation is not very loud. And the current situation of my Mingjiao is far worse than it was back then..."

"Right Prime Minister, what are these words? Why is it that my Mingjiao is not as good as it was back then? As soon as the words fell, Governor Luo Wensu had a cold face and protested loudly.

He and Du Zundao and Sheng Wenyu were originally ranked with Liu Futong. But in recent years, Liu Futong has relied on his control of military power to say the same thing in the entire Yingzhou Red Scarf. And Du Zundao, the left prime minister, and he, the governor of political affairs, have been suppressed again and again, and they have almost become empty tablets, and it has no impact if they don't save zài.

Therefore, Han Lin'er's return is not only an opportunity for Yingzhou Red Scarf as a whole, but also an opportunity for Luo Wensu and Du Zundao. After all, Han Lin'er's mother and son have just arrived, and they will not know the situation inside the Yingzhou red scarf in great detail. And once Han Lin'er ascends the throne, Liu Futong will have a final adjudicator. Du Zundao and his words will not be as weightless as before.

The prime minister was too modest. My Yingzhou red scarf now sits in a place where the whole road is plastered, and there are nearly 400,000 people with armor, why is it not as good as Mingjiao back then? …”

"Isn't it? At that time, there were no soldiers and no generals, and we could still support King Ming to ascend the throne. Now that there are more soldiers and horses, the courage has become smaller..."

There are definitely more "smart people" here, and Luo Wensu is definitely not the only one. Soon, Li Wu, Cui De and other generals who were not usually favored by Liu Futong also opened their mouths, believing that Liu Futong's statement was too bizarre.

Although Zuo Prime Minister Du Zundao did not end up directly, his two small eyes quietly narrowed into a line. In his opinion, the reason why he could not control military power in the past was not because his ability and prestige were inferior to Liu Futong, but because he should not have taken the overall situation into account at first, and Liu Futong took the lead. And today, it is obvious that Feng Shui has a tendency to take turns, and with the full support of Li Wu, Cui De and others, they will visit Yanfu Palace a few more times, so that Yang knows how his views differ from those of Liu Futong. I believe that it will not take too long for Liu Futong's arbitrary situation to be completely changed.

It's just that Liu Futong's vigilance against danger is far sharper than Du Zundao imagined. I found that a few people who didn't have any sense of zài when they were usually discussing matters jumped out one after another today, and immediately Han Lin'er's return was probably not necessarily a blessing to him. So he shook his head and smiled, and said loudly again: "Don't be too anxious about Luo participating in politics first, brothers, don't be busy jumping to conclusions first." and give Liu a chance to finish the story. After all, this is Liu's Prime Minister's Mansion, not the East and West Cities outside..."

"This" Luo Wensu, Li Wu, and Cui De suddenly felt a chill in their hearts, and instinctively closed their mouths. There is a way, be obedient and listen to the sound. Before Han Lin'er, the king of Xiaoming, came out to govern in person, Liu Futong still held the power of life and death. If they push too quickly, I'm afraid it won't end well.

"It's just a little bit of rat guts, and I'm embarrassed to come to the palace..."Seeing the silence of several opponents, Liu Futong secretly slandered in his heart. "Although the young master is the only seedling of His Royal Highness King Ming, the young master has been living abroad in the past three years. Neither has he ever gone into battle to kill a thief, nor has the Chinese army offered a single strategy. As soon as he revealed his identity, we supported him as the co-owner of the red scarf in the world. In a hurry, I am afraid that many people will not be convinced..."

"Who dare" Bai Buxin showed his arms and rolled up his sleeves, and roared in a low voice. was blinded by Liu Futong, lowered his head, and gasped heavily.

"In addition..."The cold gaze swept over the audience, and Liu Futong continued to add loudly, "Although my Mingjiao didn't control such a large territory and soldiers and horses back then, they were all united. The sect leader gave an order, and tens of thousands of disciples obeyed. But now, please see, the Mingjiao is still as united as it was back then? Not to mention that in the distance, Xu Shouhui, who was close to Runing, was he willing to take the initiative to give up his false name immediately when he heard the return of the young master? If he refuses, will we not bring shame upon ourselves? The army was attacked and laughed at by the Mengyuan court. Continue to swallow your anger, what difference does it make if the young master waits for the throne or not? …”

"This" Even if Liu Futong is no longer convinced in his stomach, Luo Wensu and others have to admit that the latter's words are absolutely reasonable. The Son of Heaven is coerced to the princes of the world, if the princes of the world turn a blind eye to the Son of Heaven. That would be equivalent to closing the door and crowning the monkey. Nothing good other than a bunch of jokes...

"The right prime minister, I don't know what you think? Why don't you speak up and give everyone a reassurance? found that if he remained silent, Liu Futong would be in control of the situation again. Zuo Prime Minister Du Zundao suddenly opened his eyes and asked for advice with a smile on his face.

'Right?' Luo Wensu and the others immediately came to their senses again, and they all looked at Liu Futong. 'This doesn't work, that doesn't work, you might as well come up with a plan?' Could it be that because he had many scruples, he thought that Han Lin'er had never come back? ’

Unexpectedly, Liu Futong didn't take their forced gaze seriously at all, smiled and arched his hand towards Du Zundao, and said loudly, "Thank you Prime Minister Zuo for reminding... Here, I did think of a solution. The return of the young master has greatly boosted the heart of my Red Turban Army. Therefore, I think that we are not in a hurry to support the young lord to ascend the throne, but to inform the world of the news of his return first. Immediately, with the blessing of the young master, he waved his army westward. Settle the ledger with Zhang Liangbi's thief... After recovering Luoyang and Nanyang and other places, my Yingzhou red scarf will surely be a great shock. Second, the merits of the young master can also fall in the eyes of the world's heroes. In the future, it will be logical for us to mention the matter of supporting the establishment again..."
