"The son of Youzhou Mu Liu Yao visited his father, and in September of the fourth year of Guanghe, Qiu Liju, the king of Karasuma, sent 60,000 troops to invade my Youzhou. Erchen led my hundreds of officials in Youzhou to resist to the death. In September of the same year, Erchen led his lieutenants Huang Zhong, Zhang Fei, Gao Shun, and Tian Chou to defeat the 50,000 Karasuma army that invaded Jixian and Yuyang. Kill more than 45,000 enemies. Later, Captain Tai Shici led 5,000 cavalry to break into the Karasuma grassland and annihilate more than 40 tribes of Karasuma. More than 60,000 enemies were killed, and countless cattle, sheep and horses were captured. October. The Karasuma Lord, Qiu Liju, sent envoys to negotiate peace, and after this battle, Karasuma had no more power to invade for five years. Yuan Feng gritted his teeth and read it out.

Quiet, and suddenly there was silence above the court. Originally, everyone thought that Liu Yao had just reluctantly repelled Karasuma and saved Youzhou. But now it seems that it is not just a victory, but a big victory. More than 100,000 enemies were killed, something that no one had done for decades. What's more, the king of Karasuma, Qiu Liju, actually took the initiative to negotiate peace.

Liu Hong looked at the expressions of the people below with great satisfaction. After all, his son has made achievements, and he, the father and emperor, also has face.

Just when Liu Hong was secretly happy, a voice came: "Your Majesty, although the eldest prince has a noble status, he is not qualified to negotiate peace with the Karasuma people without authorization, and he also asks His Majesty to punish the crime and remove the position of the eldest prince Youzhou pastor." ”

Liu Hong, who was interrupted, followed the voice angrily and looked over, it was the great general He Jin. Liu Hong suddenly became angry. Originally, Liu Hong promoted He Jin to a general in the face of Empress He, and also used his strength to fight against the family. But He Jin, the big fat pig, didn't know what was going on, and actually joined the side of the family.

Liu Hong said angrily, "Bastard, He Jin, you have forgotten that I gave the emperor the Chixiao Sword, and you have the right to cut first and then play." Liu Hong became more and more disgusted with He Jin. Moreover, Queen He actually poisoned and killed Wang Meiren, which made Liu Hong even more disgusted with this family, and even took Liu Wei with him.

"This ......" He Jin was speechless for a moment. To be honest, He Jin really forgot about the Chixiao Sword. His idea was that he didn't want Liu Yao to get so much credit. Once Liu Yao's achievements reach the sky, then the future throne will definitely be Liu Yao's. And his nephew, Liu Wei, the second prince born to the queen, no longer has a chance to compete for the throne.

He Jin only found out about Queen He's poisoning and murder of Liu Yao afterwards, and he scolded Queen He on the spot. In his opinion, there is no one behind Liu Yao to support him, and Liu Wei has himself and Queen He behind him, and the future throne must be Liu Yao's, where is this kind of means needed. If Liu Yao was really poisoned, a fool would be able to imagine that Queen He did it, and at that time, whether it was himself, Queen He, or Liu Wei, there would only be a dead end. But fortunately, for unknown reasons, Liu Yao did not die. made He Jin call it lucky.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Great Prince is only 12 years old this year, how can he have the ability to completely destroy Karasuma's enemy, but he has not done much damage. Please also ask His Majesty to send someone down to investigate thoroughly, so as not to let His Royal Highness the Great Prince lie about his military exploits and endanger the entire Youzhou. Yuan Feng saw He Jin impeach Liu Yao, and he also added a fire.

Yuan Feng naturally didn't want Liu Yao to get such a great merit for three reasons. First, Liu Yao's exploits slapped him hard, making him lose face...... Second, after all, He Jin is close to the side of the family, and it is good for him to help him. The third is that Yuan Feng also does not want the Han family to have such a strong prince, the future emperor. This is the greatest threat to the interests of the entire family, and no capable emperor would want his men to have the power to destroy him. Only if he thinks that Liu Hong is so ambitious, the emperor who is lustful all day long will not pay attention to this.

"You ......" Liu Hong was extremely angry, breathing heavily to calm the anger in his heart.

This is a small yellow door walked in resignedly, and in the eyes of many ministers, he walked towards Zhang Rang and whispered a few words in Zhang Rang's ear. Suddenly, Zhang Rang's face showed joy.

"Zhang Rang, but there is some good news." Liu Hong asked anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Youzhou is also coming, and he is waiting outside the palace at this time." Zhang Rang said.

Liu Hong was overjoyed when he heard it, "Hurry, hurry, announce him in,"

"But I'm worried about the ...... you're coming from Youzhou," Zhang Rang said cautiously.

Liu Hong said indifferently, "What are you afraid of, can't I stand this little bit of dust." Then he glanced at Yuan Feng and He Jin again, and said with some yin and yang weirdness: "It just so happens that I also want to ask about this matter, lest some people can't see others reaping their achievements." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhang Rang didn't understand what Liu Hong meant, and he was happy to slap Yuan Feng and He Jin in the face with Liu Hong. In the past few years, the two have not made trouble for themselves. "Xuan, Youzhou is here to make an audience."

With a duck-like sound, Gao Shun stepped into the hall in the eyes of everyone.

Gao Shun didn't care about the gazes of those court ministers, and went straight to the center and knelt down, "Captain Gao Shun under the command of Liu Yao, the lowly Youzhou Mu, see Your Majesty." ”

"Oh, you're Gao Shun." Liu Hong exclaimed in surprise. I had this person's name on the battle report before, and I think I know a lot about this matter. "I don't know what the emperor sent you here for?"

"Your Majesty, this time I came to Majesty to send a tribute on the order of the Governor of the Prefecture. By the way, I would like to bring a word for the state pastor. ”

Liu Hong asked curiously, "Oh, what does the emperor want you to bring?" ”

Gao Shun learned Liu Yao's tone and said, "Your Majesty, today's minister, Liu Yao, defeated Karasuma and collected countless loot. As the New Year is approaching, I hereby pay tribute to my father and wish my father and the emperor good health. As he spoke, he took out the gift slip from his bosom.

"Haha, the emperor has a heart. Zhang Rang, hand it to me quickly. Liu Hong was suddenly overjoyed.

Zhang Rang took the gift list and carefully handed it to Liu Hong.

Liu Hong was full of joy and opened the gift list, and suddenly his face changed slightly, and then he began to look at it, and in an instant Liu Hong's eyes widened and looked at the gift list. Immediately excitedly handed the gift list to Zhang Rang, "Zhang Rang, read this gift list, so that some people can know the emperor's generosity and ability." ”

"Yes." Zhang Rang took the gift list: "Youzhou Mu Liu Yao paid tribute to five thousand high-grade Dawan horses." There are 10,000 healthy cattle and 20,000 sheep. Eight thousand gold, all kinds of Karasuma precious treasures are innumerable. ”

Everyone immediately gasped, this gift list was inferior to all the assets of a medium-sized family.

"Okay, my emperor has made such a great contribution, I must reward him well, and then I will make the emperor a hussar general, and he has the right to open the palace." Liu Hong said boldly.

"No, never." For a while, everyone objected, and Yuan Feng and He Jin were understandable for their opposition, but Zhang Rang's opposition made Liu Hong scratch his head.

Liu Hong looked at Zhang Rang suspiciously, but Liu Hong did know that Zhang Rang was on his side, "why not"

Zhang Ran said cautiously, "Your Majesty, this time I named His Royal Highness the Great Prince as the Hussar General, and in the future, the Great Prince will make meritorious service again, wouldn't it be rewardable." It is better to crown His Royal Highness the Great Prince as the general of Zhenbei first. ”

Liu Hong thought about it for a while and felt that it was indeed the case. "In that case, then the emperor's merit will be rewarded to his subordinates."

"Your Majesty is wise." Yuan Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Liu Hong's words, this Zhenbei general could barely accept it. As for the other subordinates, they are all ants and inconsequential people in Yuan Fengyan.

"Since this is the case, Youzhou Mu Liu Yao stepped forward to listen to the seal." Liu Hong said.

"Humble duty." Liu Yao was not there, so he could only let Gao Shun step forward to replace the leader.
