Kaiyang County, within the city.

Langya Palace, three steps and one pavilion in the inside, five steps and one pavilion, the decoration is magnificent, and the extravagance is compelling.

At this time, there was a constant quarrel in the hall, like a bazaar.

"King, Guan Hai only borrowed 10,000 stone of grain. For the Langya Kingdom, 10,000 stone of grain is just a drop in the bucket. As the saying goes, if you break your fortune and eliminate disasters, give him 10,000 stone of food, and just beat him away. Alas, that is, Qiu County and Linyi County were defeated, and the rest of the counties were terrified, for fear that they would also be attacked, and the situation was not good. Once the city is broken, the consequences are unimaginable. ”

"As a noble member of the royal family, the blood of the heavenly family, a little yellow turban thief, forced the king to beg for mercy, what kind of system did he become? Food must not be given, it is a matter of royal face, and it cannot be promised. Moreover, Kaiyang County is strong, and there are also troops in the city. Even if we can't defeat each other, as long as we work together, we will definitely have no problem holding Kaiyang County. ”

"Is it so easy to defend the city? What if you can't keep it? That is, Qiu County and Linyi County have a large number of troops, and they are all elites, but what? In the end, the army was defeated. It can be seen from this that Guan Hai's forces are strong. ”

"Give Guan Hai a little food now, and Guan Hai will retreat by himself. Once the city is broken, first the food will not be saved, then the people will suffer, and finally the royal face will be lost. As the king of Langya, giving Guan Hai a little food is just an irrelevant matter. However, once the city is broken, it is really over. ”

"Your Majesty, the lower officials also think that they can't resist any longer. Once Guan Hai enters the city and fights fiercely, the situation will be out of control. ”

"As a descendant of the royal family, how can the king surrender to the Yellow Turban Thief. Never surrender, rather than die. If you don't have food, you have a life. ”

"It's not a question of surrendering or not surrendering, it's just borrowing food."

……

The situation of controversy is getting more and more difficult to manage.

Liu Rong, the king of Langya, who was sitting directly above, had a sad look on his face, he was used to being pampered, and when he encountered such a thing, he didn't know what to do? Especially when the people below are arguing, it is even more impossible to deal with. Liu Rong's eyes turned and fell on Prime Minister Xun Wei's body, his eyes full of a look of help.

The government affairs of Langya Kingdom are all handled by Xun Wei, and now something has happened, but Xun Wei has not spoken, which makes Liu Rong feel bottomless.

"Shut up, when you encounter a little thing, you will be noisy and noisy, what kind of system."

Xun Wei's face was full of majesty, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he scolded directly.

In an instant, the hall fell silent. Xun Wei got up and walked to the center of the hall, clasped his hands together, and respectfully saluted Liu Rong, and said, "Dare to ask the king, with the strength and condition of Kaiyang County, can you hold it for another five days?" ”

Liu Rong saw that Xun Wei's face was calm, and he was inexplicably relieved in his heart, and said with a smile: "With the country's prime minister, don't say that it is another five days, even if it is another ten days and a half months, there is no problem." ”

"The king praises falsely, and the old minister is ashamed."

Xun Wei was still hunched over, slightly relieved.

Liu Rong is ordinary, and the only advantage is to trust him and let him do it.

Therefore, Xun Wei's prestige in Langya is extremely high.

Xun Wei paused slightly, and said unhurriedly: "King, the words of your colleagues, the old minister has thought about it carefully. It's just that the old minister doesn't understand a little, so please teach the adults. ”

Liu Rong sat up straight, waved his hand and said, "Prime Minister please speak!" ”

For Xun Wei, Liu Rong also has great respect.

On the one hand, Xun Wei respects him very much, never relies on the old and sells the old, and never takes care of his face; On the other hand, Liu Rong knows his ability, and Xun Wei has outstanding ability, so he needs to rely on Xun Wei; Third, Xun Wei has served as the Minister of State for many years, and he has been taught by Xun Wei since he was a child.

Xun Wei said: "Everyone present, food and clothing are given by the king, why don't you think about the king's future at a critical time, but think about yourself first?" ”

In a word, the faces of some of the officials present changed greatly.

Liu Rong's expression was also covered with frost.

Xun Wei's face was expressionless, and he continued: "Once you agree to manage Hai, the food will be given by the king, and the face will be lost by the king, and the humiliation will also be borne by the king. For officials, there is not a single loss. If your colleagues really have the heart to help the king, you can donate food and materials yourself, so that the yellow turban thieves can retreat, how can you persuade the king to borrow food? ”

There was a trace of worry in everyone's hearts, and they were all afraid of Xun Wei.

After all, Xun Wei's prestige was there.

Xun Wei continued: "Your Majesty, according to the old minister, anyone can agree to Guan Hai, and anyone can borrow grain, but you can't. Why? Because the yellow turban thieves are not satisfied, they tasted the sweetness this time, and they will come next time? Will you come back next time? Perhaps, it is not only Guan Hai who comes, but also Taishan thieves, black mountain thieves and so on. Langya is rich, but it can't bear it. Moreover, as a royal noble, how can the king stand on the throne after borrowing grain? How to face the ancestors and ancestors of the Langya Kingdom? ”

Liu Rong nodded suddenly, and his eyes gradually became firm. Xun Wei's words spoke to his heart. He looked at the officials under his command, especially the people who swept over and said that they would give food, and his eyes were even more unkind.

"King, it's not that we don't want to resist, it's because Guan Hai is powerful and difficult to resist."

One of the officials, came forward to explain.

looked at Xun Wei's eyes, and there was also a touch of doubt. No matter how fanciful or impassioned you say, you must solve the problem of Guan Hai.

Unable to make Guan Hai retreat, every qiē is empty talk.

Xun Wei smiled and said, "King, the old minister just got the news. Wang Yan, the county commander of Yangdu County, has already led the army to Kaiyang County to come to the rescue. With Wang Yan here, the Yellow Turban Thief will be defeated. ”

"Kaiyang County Order? Haha, Xia Guan remembered that it was an official directly appointed by Prime Minister Xun Guo. This person's name is Wang Yan, and he is just sixteen years old. He has been in office for half a year and has not done anything. Can such a person be trusted? ”

The official questioned again, and his tone was even worse.

Liu Rong's eyes also looked at Xun Wei, after all, he was sixteen years old, and he also felt uneasy.

Xun Wei smiled slightly and asked, "Have you ever heard of the Taishan thief Zangba?" ”

"Naturally, I've heard of it!" Liu Rong's eyes showed a hint of fear, and he said: "This king heard that Zang Ba is extremely fierce and has robbed and killed many officials. There are several county guards who died in his hands, and they should be on a par with Guan Hai. ”

"The king is wise!" Xun Wei praised it, and immediately said: "The king may not know one thing, Wang Yan served as the county lieutenant of Nancheng County for less than a month, and exterminated the bandit Du Xian in Nancheng County, Taishan County. Then, he defeated the bandit Zang Ba who crisscrossed Taishan County. With him, Guan Hai will definitely be defeated. ”

Saying this, Xun Wei actually made a bet. On the one hand, the morale of the officials in the city is fluctuating, and the situation is gradually getting out of control, so he must stabilize the situation in the city; On the other hand, because Wang Yan's ability is outstanding, he believes that Wang Yan can do it. Finally, there is also a force in the city that can participate in the attack on Zangba.

Three reasons, so that Xun Wei threw out Wang Yan.

The officials listened to Xun Wei's words, and there was a trace of expectation in their eyes.

After all, he defeated Zang Ba.

Liu Rong's ability is mediocre, but he also understands the consequences of borrowing grain. Now that he had a little chance, he immediately shouted: "The meaning of the minister of state is the order of the widow." From this day on, those who dare to say that they borrow food will be killed. Prime Minister, you are personally responsible. ”

"No!"

Xun Wei bowed his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Liu Rong has a firm position, and next, the pressure he faces will be much less, and things will be much easier.
