Compared with the vigorous purge on the grassland, the capital of the Han Kingdom was stable and stable. Of course, that is only a superficial calm, why don't they know about the Great Purge of the Huns? Who dares to say 'no' at this time for the ability of this new Yannanhou!

You must know that the Northern Xiongnu have always been the bitter masters of the Han Kingdom, although the Yumen Fortress is dangerous and difficult to cross, and there is a tendency that a husband should be closed. But that's also to guard against the people who live in the Jade Gate Fortress! Those desperate aliens and some herdsmen and refugees who had taken refuge in the steppe of the Han Kingdom still had to be stationed outside the Yumen Fortress in order to live, and these people were the main source of the Han Kingdom's fine war horses. The Northern Xiongnu sent cavalry of 10,000 troops to loot at every turn, and the Han Kingdom, which lacked war horses compared to the Northern Xiongnu, only had 8,000 elite soldiers under Yang Yue, the general of the Huns, could be mobilized, but it was not all cavalry. In addition, although Yang Yue was able to defend the Yumen Fortress steadily, he was not necessarily able to engage the Northern Hun cavalry in the field battle and win. What's more, the 8,000 elite soldiers are also set up to deter the Southern Xiongnu who have defected to the Han Kingdom in the grassland, if they are lost, in this place near the Yumen Fortress, the Han army will not have the slightest prestige! As ** said, 'Politics comes out of the barrel of a gun!' In this steppe that advocates strength, no soldiers and horses are no strength, and without strength, there is no right to speak, no political power! Therefore, the position of this 8,000 elite soldiers is very embarrassing, and they want to enter the grassland for fear of being annihilated; If you want to retreat to the Yumen Fortress and never leave the fortress, you will lose the right to speak in these alien races who have taken refuge, so the Han Kingdom sounds like it has a high prestige on the grassland, but in fact it is just eating the old book of the Han Empire, which dominated the world in the decline. Therefore, this great victory of the Jade Gate Fortress made the entire capital secretly shake.

It was expected that all the soldiers and horses would be used to defend Yannanhou but took the risk to cut off the grain route of the Northern Xiongnu, and won a big victory, so that the Xiongnu had no grain and grass for the winter and had to start a big purge, when this news was transmitted back to the capital through various secret reports, although the capital was still calm on the surface, but secretly it was surging, after that, what position should Yannan Dao be placed in the entire Han Kingdom, this issue is all those in power need to seriously consider, And the emperor's previous reward for Yan Nanhou is also time to re-examine.

Kingdom of Han, capital. Although the weather has begun to clear up after the heavy snow of the previous days. As a result, the air is unusually fresh, the sky is unusually blue, and some of the birds that are not yet ready for winter nests are getting busy. In short, the atmosphere today should be cheerful and bright, and it is worth going out to play and hunt. However, the families who were able to scout in advance to receive the news closed their doors and refused to visit guests. Of course, the officials who came to visit these high-ranking families today are also some people who do not have a sensitive sense of smell, or do not have long eyes! Their future was lost by the time of this visit~

The gloomy aura spreads all over the court and the opposition, everyone is thinking about their own back road, although on the surface the emperor is fierce, but the big family with secret agents in the palace knows that the emperor has been killed on the battlefield from time to time in recent years, what does this mean? This emperor is not long in life! Where exactly they want to bet on this upcoming battle for the throne is a question that all patriarchs who do not want to usurp the throne need to think about carefully. Originally, the emperor opened the banker, and only gave the following two excellent stocks, the first is the crown prince, that is, the first heir to the throne, the great prince, he has attracted many middle and lower-level officials and generals by virtue of his early established identity, but his mother is not the queen is one of his hard wounds; The second is the third prince, whose mother is now the queen of the Han Kingdom, the eldest son of the real concubine, and also used his identity and relatives to win over many officials and generals who did not have a firm position. The rest of the princes are not much better than Fang Taishou in the eyes of these big families!

And now, in the last few years, the emperor suddenly supported another excellent stock, the Nine Emperor Son Meng Li!

Relying on the status of the governor of the strategic town of the Han Kingdom, and with the momentum of a big victory over the Northern Xiongnu, its momentum is more certain than the two excellent stocks thrown out before. After all, the first two have been living in the capital, and in the past few years, they have not received the news that the emperor has had a secret attack, and no matter how rampant they are, they dare not blatantly win over relatives and important ministers under the emperor's nose. This would make the emperor, who still had a lot of time, feel that the throne was unstable, or that he might try to usurp the throne and deal with them.

Because of this, there are still not many important ministers in the government and the opposition and foreign generals who can influence the emperor's opinions, and the soldiers and horses in their hands are scattered all over the country. Unlike Yannan Hou Mengli, who held Yannan Dao, one of the nine military towns of the Han Kingdom, the soldiers and horses of Yannan Dao often fought because of their proximity to the grassland, thus raising a hundred battle elite orders that made the entire Han Kingdom look at each other. What's more, I don't know if there is a hidden world of great forces secretly choosing to support the Marquis of Yannan or the emperor's secret help, there are constantly high-ranking generals and advisers who serve under the command of the Nine Emperor Princes Meng Li.

Recently, it is a little unusual, the emperor has repeatedly summoned the Yanbei Dao clan Meng Zongzheng's family to serve the Yannan Hou, and the Xie family of Wuyi Lane, which has many celebrities, has also voted for it, which makes the water in the capital more and more muddy, making people unable to see the roads in it.

You must know that the dangerous situation of the battle for the throne is no worse than the bloody battle, and if you choose the wrong one, what awaits you is the new emperor's extermination! Even if the emperor doesn't kill them all for the sake of fame, then you will not have the slightest future, and a family that is hated by the emperor can be passed on? Dream your big dreams!

Wait for the next emperor to use it? Same dreaming! He wants to show the slightest dare to use the person he hates, see if he can take over his father's throne!

After receiving the news, all parties are quietly inviting the group's decision-making level to hold a meeting!

The capital of the Han Kingdom, the imperial palace. On weekdays, the princes who like to turn around, all secretly let people pass on their own think tanks and begin to analyze how to do Meng Li's big plan. In the upper study, the expressionless emperor recruited the left and right prime ministers, and the privy envoys of the various ministries and the privy council began to discuss one thing, that is, whether to recruit the nine emperor Meng Li into Beijing!

"Boom~" Emperor Meng Chang, who cleared his throat, began to look at the old foxes below who were sitting in danger but didn't know where to run.

"Ministers, you must also know the news of Lao Jiu's victory in Yumen Fortress, tell me, what do you think?" Seeing that there was no old fox below who spoke first, the emperor still broke the silence.

Conventionally, the right is respected. Zhang Yuan, the right prime minister with a goatee and a blink of his eyes, opened his mouth and said: "His Royal Highness Meng Li, the Ninth Emperor Prince, broke the Northern Xiongnu in the Yumen Fortress, so that the Northern Xiongnu had to carry out a brutal ethnic purge. Yu Guo, meritorious! To the people, meritorious! Reward! ”

"Old fox!" Knowing that he couldn't say anything affirmative, Meng Chang couldn't help but glance at Zuo Prime Minister Wang Kang.

"His Royal Highness the Nine Emperors, break the Northern Huns outside the Yumen Fortress, establish the prestige of my Han family, and deserve the capital to offer prisoners to raise the prestige of our country!" The lifeless tone but expressed his opinion, that is, Meng Li needs to enter Beijing.

Without waiting for the emperor to look at it, Yang Xiu, the privy envoy who hurriedly expressed his opinion, said angrily: "The Nine Emperors have the prestige of the royal inheritance, and they deserve to hold this prisoner sacrifice ceremony, so that the people of the world can take a good look at my Han Guozuo, although it is weak, it is not something that they can be bullied by a rising star!" ”

It's no wonder that he is angry, the Privy Council, which has full authority over the movement of military horses, has sensed the imminent movement of several nearby kingdoms, and it cannot be said that the empire behind them is instigating, wanting to destroy this country that has been inherited for nearly a thousand years in one fell swoop.

"The Nine Emperor Princes raise the prestige of our country......"

"The Nine Emperor Princes should go to Beijing to report on their work......"

……

Anyway, all the ministers think that this time, Meng Li, the prince of the Nine Emperors, deserves to enter Beijing!

Whether it is to be prepared to observe him, to serve him; Or frame him, murder him. Anyway, the characters on both sides need Meng Li to enter Beijing to achieve, so it is generally a rare unity of opinion of the bigwigs who hold several opinions this time.

With a little thought, he looked at the few bigwigs of the interest groups with unified opinions below who said the words to let Meng Li enter Beijing, and Emperor Meng Chang pursed his already thin lips and bent his usually straight eyebrows, which made the emperor's murderous aura even more revealed.

However, the companion is like a tiger, how can these old ministers be afraid that this is just an exposed momentum.

There was silence in the hall for a while, the ministers were looking at their noses, noses and mouths, and waiting for the emperor's final decision, while the emperor glanced at the ministers below with a little thought.

"Then, the Ministry of Rites, pick an auspicious day, and go and prepare for the arrangement of the Nine Emperor Prince Meng Li's entry into Beijing!" In the end, the emperor's face was restored to his normal color.

"Huh~" The Ministry of Rites Shangshu got up and replied.

"Wang Kang, you go and let the imperial study draft the holy decree, pass Lao Jiu into Beijing, and ask him to lead his elite soldiers to escort the Huns captured this time into Beijing and sacrifice the prisoners!" The emperor, who tilted his head and didn't know what he was thinking, said word by word.

"This? Be! "Bring troops into Beijing? It seems that the emperor still values his old nine very much~

"Stand down! Hurry up and prepare~" waved his hand, and the emperor, who was a little impatient with these old foxes, asked them to retreat.

"喏~, 喏 xià long live long live ~"

Looking at the ministers who retreated after singing, Meng Chang looked up at a flying dragon in the main hall and muttered, "It's a dragon or a worm, it's like this, Lao Jiu!" Don't let me down~"
