Luoyang, Weiyang Palace.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the letter in my hand is jointly signed by Ding Yuan, the assassin of Bingzhou, and Liu Yu, the assassin of Youzhou, and sent to Luoyang quickly!"

"According to the letter, the current situation in the north is already precarious!"

"The Tanshi Huai of the Xianbei clan and the Shan Yu Qiangqu of the Xiongnu clan, for some reason, suddenly united together!"

"Even, even the Mao Dun of the Wuheng clan quietly unified his clan when cholera broke out in my Han Dynasty!"

"The wolf's ambition is obvious!"

"According to Liu Yu's report, these three clans have a faint tendency to unite, if this is the case, then there will be nearly 700,000 foreign troops in the north to invade the territory of our Han Dynasty!!"

"Things are in a hurry, and I don't have time to take care of too much, at this time, the Han is worried about everything, and only Zhuqing can share my worries!"

Emperor Han Ling, who was sitting on the dragon chair, his face was as deep as water at this time, although his eyes were anxious, but he also forcibly pressed the emotions in his heart, he knew that as the king of a country, if he showed any panic at this time, then the civil and military officials below would be even more anxious!

"Your Majesty!"

Yuan Kui, as a Taifu, stood up first:

"At this time, my Han is indeed suffering from internal and external troubles, and cholera is repeated, but fortunately, at this time, the Yellow Turban thieves in the country are no longer in the climate, and Your Majesty can focus on the north and focus on resisting the invasion of foreign enemies."

"Inside, just send a general to take charge."

"The minister thinks so."

A list of civil officials, Wang Yun then stood up and made his debut.

"Ministers, I think so."

All the civil and military officials in the rear responded.

"Well, what Mrs. Yuan said is extremely true."

"Then I don't know if Zhuqing has a choice for the generals who will send troops to the north?!"

Emperor Han Ling nodded in agreement, and then continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, although the minister was wounded and defeated in Guangzong before, if Your Majesty does not give up, the minister is willing to lead the troops to resist the northern barbarians!"

Lu Zhi walked out of the official column and knelt down to Emperor Han Ling and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also willing to lead the troops to the north to resist the barbarians!"

Huangpu Song had been unable to hold back earlier, and now seeing that Lu Zhi had set an example, he would naturally not fall behind.

"Good!"

"Huangpu Song and Lu Zhi obey the order!"

"The minister is here!"

"I now appoint you and the other two as 'General Anbei' and 'General Anzai'!"

"Each leads 50,000 troops to support Bingzhou and Youzhou!"

"Chen Lu Zhi (Huangpu Song) takes the order!"

Huangpu Song and Lu Zhi bowed.

Immediately afterwards, Huangpu Song's eyes flickered, and he raised his head to Emperor Han Ling and said:

"Your Majesty, the minister has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not!"

"Aiqing, please speak."

Emperor Han Ling's gaze condensed slightly.

"The alien races in the north are menacing, with a strength of nearly 700,000 people, although we have a city wall to hold onto, but I'm afraid it's also a drop in the bucket!"

"At the same time, the alien races have formed an alliance, and our soldiers are divided into two routes, and they are fighting separately in Youzhou, and they have lost strategically."

"If Your Majesty does not give up, the minister wants to ask one person to be the commander in chief and lead the war in the north!"

Huangpu Song bowed his hand and said.

"Oh? Who does Aiqing want to ask for the boss? ”

Emperor Han Ling's heart suddenly froze, as if he had thought of something...

At the same time, Cao Cao, Xun Yu and Yuan Shao, who were standing in the ranks of hundreds of officials, also had a flash of light in their eyes!

"Could it be..."

"Could it be..."

Sure enough, I saw Huangpu Song say:

"The minister wants to ask His Majesty to appoint the Marquis of Pingyang as the commander of the war in the north!"

When these words were spoken, the hall was in an uproar!

"Pingyang Hou?!"

"I see..."

"Pingyang Hou's previous achievements can be described as shocking, if he is the commander, no one will be unconvinced!"

"But Pingyang Hou's injuries have not healed, can he really recreate his original feats..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone frowned.

"Yes, the Marquis of Pingyang was seriously injured in the battle of Guangzong, and it has only been more than a month at this time, and the injury is probably just just stabilizing, and it is probably a mistake to appoint him as the commander of the war in the north at this time!"

"It's not proper, it's really inappropriate, the war in the north is an important matter for the country, don't be such a child's play!"

“...”

"Silence!"

Emperor Han Ling was already in an anxious mood, and the civil and military officials below him were so noisy that he suddenly felt his head as big as a fight.

“...”

"Huangpu Aiqing, I know that Pingyang Hou is brave and martial, and his strategy is even more extreme, but at this time, Pingyang Hou's injury has not healed, and I can't trust him to deliver such an important matter to him..."

Speaking of this, Emperor Han Ling had a trace of regret in his heart.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to replenish his emptiness with military power earlier, he was afraid that the Yellow Turban cholera in China had been completely quelled by this time.

Then I won't be like an ant on a hot pan now, restless...

But even if Emperor Han Ling chooses again, he will still do the same.

Lu Qi's merits are too great, and there are too many troops in his hands, so he has to guard against it!

And the key point is that Lu Qi's 'injury' gave him a reason to feel at ease, if it weren't for that, I was afraid that Emperor Han Ling would have more means...

As an emperor, he didn't want to be like this, but since he was sitting in this position, many things couldn't help him!

"This..."

Huangpu Song heard this, but he didn't know how to refute Lu Qi.

"Yes, Ziyi's injuries have not healed now, even if His Majesty really appoints him as the commander of the war in the north, then if there is a mistake in the future, it will be the civilians of the two states who will suffer..."

"Alas, if Ziyi is not injured, the whole Han will be more suitable for him!"

"Even if Zigan and I go to the north, I'm afraid we can only resist it, but we can't do anything else, and over time, we will stay behind!"

Huangpu Song's expression was extremely complicated, and he had a lot of worries in his heart.

However, just as he was about to receive the order and stop speaking, among the ranks of the hundred officials, Cao Cao suddenly stood up and bowed to Emperor Han Ling:

"Minister Cao Cao, I have something to say to Your Majesty."

"Oh? Cao Qing will talk about it. ”

After Emperor Han Ling saw Cao Cao, some things he had heard before popped up in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the relationship between the minister and the Marquis of Pingyang, I think all the adults in this hall are all clear."

"However, Your Majesty only knows that Pingyang Hou's injuries have not healed, but he doesn't know that Pingyang Hou's combat power depends!"

Cao Cao said with a solemn face.

"What do you mean by that?!"

Emperor Han Ling frowned.

"Your Majesty knows that the minister is a martial cultivator, and he also has the combat power of the fifth realm."

"But that's the case, under the hands of the Marquis of Pingyang, he can't make a move."

Cao Cao's face was slightly bitter.

After all, in front of a group of civil and military officials and the Son of Heaven, telling his own troubles is really a bit embarrassing.

But at this time, the war in the north is already a big trouble in everyone's heart, if he doesn't stand up at this time, then he is ashamed to be a courtier, ashamed to be a Hanmin!

"How is that possible?! Although Pingyang Hou Yong won the three armies, that was also when he was not injured before! ”

"At this time, his injuries have not healed, how can Lord Cao not be able to take a move in the hands of Pingyang Hou?!"

"I heard that Cao Yilang had a great friendship with the Marquis of Pingyang, and at this time, it seems that it is true, he dares to deceive His Majesty for the sake of the Marquis of Pingyang!"

"But if he says that, His Majesty can't believe him, not only will this not only be unbelievable, but will also suffer a crime of bullying the king!"

"Alas, Cao Yilang is still impulsive..."

All the officials muttered quietly.

But the space in the hall is not very large, and everyone can hear these quiet movements clearly.

"Cao Yilang, are you sure what you said is true?"

Emperor Han Ling also heard the analysis of the hundred officials, and at this time, his eyes narrowed slightly, and the murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

If Cao Cao really wanted to get the commander of the northern war for Lu Qi because of selfishness, he probably wouldn't be able to keep Cao Cao...

"Your Majesty! Ladies and gentlemen! ”

"What Cao Cao said is absolutely true!"

"You only know that Pingyang Hou's combat power is unparalleled, but you don't know that his law cultivation is not weaker than his own martial cultivation strength at all!"

Cao Cao felt that there was something wrong with Emperor Han Ling's demeanor, but he had no shame in his heart, so he naturally puffed out his chest and looked at Emperor Han Ling.

“...”

As soon as Cao Cao's words came out, everyone was extremely surprised, but no one dared to speak first.

And Emperor Han Ling, who was sitting above, frowned, as if he was thinking about something...

"If the Marquis of Pingyang is really as Cao Cao said, and the strength of the law cultivation is not weaker than his own martial cultivation combat power, then it is definitely a pillar of heaven for the northern war!"

"I can also entrust the war in the north to him with peace of mind."

"But..."

"I treated him like this before, will he really be loyal to me?"

"But if Pingyang Hou really depends on his strength, if I don't use it, wouldn't it be a waste of the Han heritage?!"

"At this time, the luck of the Han has been sharply reduced by two percent, if I hesitate again, I'm afraid..."

As if thinking of some unavoidable danger, Emperor Han Ling gritted his teeth and said:

"Xuan, Pingyang Hou enters the palace!"

"No!"

......

"What do you say? Your Majesty wants to see me? ”

Lu Qi frowned and looked at Zhang Rangdao in front of him.

"Yes, Master Hou, hurry up and enter the palace with the lower officials to face the saint."

Zhang Rang said with a flattering smile on his face.

Before, when Lu Qi was secretly demoted by Mingsheng, although Zhang Rang did not secretly make any halberds, but he did not have much contact with Lu Qi, at this time His Majesty personally asked himself to come and invite Lu Qi into the palace, if this is not done well, his head on the neck is also difficult to protect...

"Good manner, why did Your Majesty see me?"

"Besides, Your Majesty has already made it clear before, let me recuperate with peace of mind, whether it is the affairs of the DPRK or the world, there is no need to ask, if this is the case, forget it, so as not to cause gossip."

Lu Qi refused with a faint smile, and then raised his feet and prepared to turn around and return to his hall, and continue to drink tea and play chess with Guo Jia.

Seeing this, Zhang Rang's heart trembled, and he hurriedly shouted anxiously:

"Oh, Master Hou! Don't embarrass the lower officials, at this time the northern barbarians invaded, His Majesty was anxious, but at this time, there were few military generals in the court, so let the lower officials come to invite the Hou Ye to go to the palace to discuss together! ”

"Your Majesty heard Cao Yilang tell me, although you have not healed from your physical injuries, but your Fa Xiu combat power is also overwhelming, so you hurriedly asked the lower officials to come and invite you, Hou Ye, don't hesitate."

"It's this Mengde again..."

Lu Qi frowned when he heard this, as if he was a little angry:

"You just tell Your Majesty that your injuries have not healed, and I am afraid that you will not be able to share your worries for Your Majesty."

"This..."

Zhang Rang heard this, but he didn't know what to do.

After all, this is the trouble caused by Emperor Han Ling himself, but now he has kicked the trouble to him, when he came before, Emperor Han Ling secretly passed the word that he must take Pingyang Hou into the palace, if Pingyang Hou does not come, then he will not have to return to the palace.

Isn't that embarrassing him...

"I really poured eight lifetimes of mold to get such an errand!"

After Zhang Rang cursed in his heart, he pretended to be a hippie smile again, and said to Lu Qiyan:

"Master Hou, the lower official knows that you are angry in your heart, but the lower official is soft-spoken, and he can't say anything more for you at that time, and at this time, the lower official knows what you think in your heart."

"But, even if you are angry with Your Majesty, do you still want to spread this anger to those innocent civilians in the north?"

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

Lu Qi's eyes flashed.

"Xiaguan heard about Hou Ye's many deeds earlier, and knew that everything Hou Ye did for the Han Dynasty was for the entire Han people, not for his own fame and fortune.

"And those who can compose such poems, do they really care about the so-called fame and fortune in their hearts?"

"The lower official knows that you still have anger in your heart, but those civilians in the north are not guilty!"

"At this time, the northern barbarians have gathered nearly 700,000 troops, and they are about to invade the territory of our Han Dynasty, and the residents of Bingzhou and Youzhou have been harassed by the barbarians, can Lord Hou really be indifferent?!"

Zhang Rang's heartache recounted, as if he was really an image of a clean official who cares about the people.

If Lu Qi didn't know Zhang Rang's details, I was afraid that he would really be deceived by him.

But now, Lu Qi has also got the result he wants, and naturally he will not continue to embarrass this Zhang Rang, that is, after smiling at Guo Jia on the side, he said:

"Okay, Zhang Shilang will lead the way."

"Ouch! The lower officials know that Hou Ye has always been dedicated to being a big man, and he will definitely not be embarrassed by the lower officials! ”

When Zhang Rang heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said!

......

Weiyang Palace.

"Minister, Lu Ziyi, I have seen Your Majesty."

"I heard that Your Majesty urgently recruited Weichen into the palace, but I didn't have time to put on official uniforms, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me."

Lu Qi, dressed in a snow-white robe, stood on top of the main hall and bowed to Emperor Han Ling.

"Aiqing doesn't need to be polite, I wanted to find a time to visit Aiqing before, I don't know how Aiqing's health is at this time?"

When Emperor Han Ling saw Lu Qi, he asked with a smile full of concern.

"Thank you Your Majesty for your concern, the minister's injuries have stabilized."

Lu Qi replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Well, that's good."

Emperor Han Ling seemed to have received a satisfactory reply, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he asked again:

"I heard Cao Yilang tell me before, although Aiqing's martial arts strength has not yet recovered, but the strength of law cultivation has not been damaged at all, I don't know if this matter is true?"

"Back to Your Majesty, Weichen is indeed a dual cultivation of law and martial arts, and the strength of law cultivation is not very good, but compared with Weichen's previous martial arts strength, it is not much weaker."

Lu Qi said with a light smile.

As soon as these words came out, all the civil and military officials kept their eyes on Lu Qi, as if they wanted to see the truth.

Seeing this, Lu Qi smiled and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have offended. ”

"Hum..."

An extremely terrifying divine soul power, like a vast ocean, with Lu Qi as the center of gravity, pressed towards the civil and military officials in the hall!

......
