Seeing that Li Dao was dragged out with a sluggish face, everyone in the tent came back to their senses, and Taiwei Yang Biao turned his head and said: "Your Majesty, since Li Dao has surrendered, why don't you spare his life? "As for the issue of punishing the nine clans, we can leave it aside, even if Liu Xuan wants to kill the entire Li Dao clan, he will have to wait until the end of the war.

As for Yang Biao's thoughts, it can't be said that he is wrong, because if he kills Li Dao at this time, it will inevitably make Guo Yan have the idea that surrendering is also death, it is better to fight to the death, which does not seem to be a good choice for the imperial court.

Yang Biao believes that even if he wants to kill, he should wait until Guo Yan's rebellious army is also resolved, and then kill him, and now he can be pacified first, and at the same time, if Li Wei's crime is pardoned, he can also stabilize those soldiers faster.

Li Dao's soldiers and horses are tens of thousands, and these soldiers are also very concerned about how the imperial court deals with themselves, if the imperial court spares Li Dao and does not die, these soldiers will also take a reassuring pill, knowing that they will never have anything to do; but the emperor cut Li Dao without saying a word, and these soldiers will inevitably mutter: 'The Son of Heaven is angry, can we still live?'

If it is used and instigated by people with intentions, there will inevitably be some twists and turns, which is greatly unfavorable to the imperial army, so Yang Biao feels that killing Li Dao is not in a hurry for a while, and it can be slowed down, and then talk about how to deal with it when the northwest is completely controlled.

Liu Xuan turned his head to take a look, this Yang Biao's words were indeed for the sake of the court, so Liu Xuan didn't put on a face, and politely explained: "Today's chaos is in chaos, the prestige of the court is gone, if you don't deal with it with thunder, I am afraid that the princes of the world will look down on it, and at that time, the imperial court edict will be issued, I am afraid it will ......."

"Now that the nine clans of Li Dao are killed, it is to let the world know that the Han dynasty has not completely decayed, and the imperial court still has the strength to maintain its authority. ”

When Yang Biao heard this, he immediately understood what the emperor meant, and he didn't call out the news to the princes in the world who supported the army and respected themselves through Li Dao's matter: Don't look at the weakness of the court, but if you really do too much, the court can also send a large army to conquest, what will happen at that time, but it is not necessarily.

But Yang Biao didn't think that those princes would restore their allegiance to the court because of this, and he had already seen the situation today, the court captured Yongliang, and then the Kwantung princes went their own way, in addition to Yizhou and Jingzhou, they also had their own lives, and the imperial court's edicts basically had little effect on the local level.

This is just like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the world has formed a de facto division of powers, and the imperial court wants to restore its rule over the world......

"Is there really going to be a big mess in the world?"

Yang Biao didn't want this, because once there was a big chaos, it was still questionable whether the Han Dynasty could continue. Perhaps the current imperial court is luckier than the Zhou Dynasty in that Liu Xuan, a young son of heaven, is still quite capable, and the imperial court also has its own forces in its hands, and if it develops steadily, it can completely regain the world by force.

Turning his head to look at Liu Xuan, this young son of heaven seemed to have expected all this, only to see that he took the initiative to give up Luoyang, fled to Chang'an with hundreds of civil and military officials, and then stuck in Tongguan to sit and watch Dong Zhuo fight with the heroes of the Kanto region, and at the same time sent people to appease Li Dao and Guo Yan, and he took the opportunity to develop armaments.

When the time is ripe, he will immediately remove Li Dao and regain control of the northwest, and if the emperor is given another few decades, he may not be able to really restore the rule of the Han dynasty.

"It's a pity that I won't see that day. ”

More importantly, Yang Biao saw that the Son of Heaven was not willing to be manipulated by others, and the Son of Heaven wanted to restore the country by himself, rather than relying on strong courtiers to complete all this.

So if you want to do things under this Son of Heaven, you have to put away your ambitions, and you can't cross that bottom line.

Yang Biao has been an official for a long time, and when he looks at the Son of Heaven, he always feels that he is looking at a famous child, and he unconsciously wants to talk to him as an elder, and it is difficult to change this attitude for a while. If the Son does not move him today, who can guarantee that he will be able to tolerate himself after the Son of Heaven has more power in his hands in the future?

"Perhaps, this time when I go back, it is better to resign and retire. ”

He originally wanted to talk to Wang Yun, but remembering that Wang Yun's old man had a strong desire for power, he was afraid that he would be misunderstood by his kindness, so he didn't say anything. It's a big deal that Wang Yun really fell out with the Son of Heaven in the future, and he would rather lose this face and beg the emperor to save Wang Yun's life.

After thinking about it for a while, he didn't even hear Liu Xuan's subsequent arrangements, but Xun Yu secretly stabbed him on the side before he came back to his senses.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw the emperor asking himself with a smile: "Hou Cheng has already sent a letter, and he has already controlled the remaining Li Dao's soldiers with Yang Ding.

This is the credit of sending it to the door, Liu Xuan told him about it, and it can be regarded as selling him a face as a captain, but Yang Biao has figured it out after thinking for a while just now - he is already a captain, and the emperor has the intention to reform, and his domination of this position will inevitably make the emperor annoying, and it is estimated that it will be even more annoying if he has more credit.

Therefore, Yang Biao almost did not hesitate, and said directly: "Chen Xu is a little old, and he has been running around a lot in recent days, but he feels unwell, and he asks His Majesty to send someone else." ”

When everyone heard this, they all turned their heads and looked at him, wondering why this Yang Taiwei still pushed the credit for sending the door out, even Liu Xuan was surprised for a while, but after looking at Yang Biao, he found that he looked indifferent, as if he had figured out something, and probably had a guess in his heart, so he no longer dwelled on this matter, and turned to Liu Bei and said: "In this case, Yun Chang will go on this trip and take over the subordinate with Hou Cheng." ”

Sending generals to take over the subordinates, many of which are talkative, and even in some cases, it is a benefit to take the initiative to let the generals choose their favorite soldiers.

Liu Xuan actually let Guan Yu go, which was tantamount to taking the initiative to send benefits to Guan Yu, not only Guan Yu himself was surprised, but even Liu Bei was a little surprised.

"Could it be that Your Majesty wants to reuse my brother?"

As he was thinking about it, he listened to Liu Xuan's arrangement for a while, and left Guan Yu, Xiahou Dun, Cao Xing, and Gao Shun to reorganize and surrender on the spot with Hou Cheng and Yang Ding, and select a separate army that suits the standards of the forbidden army, and the rest of the army will form another army, and then arrange it after the end of the war.

In addition, all the merits of the first battle yesterday were recorded one by one, and the rewards were awarded after the class teacher returned to the court, Liu Xuan was very simple, and directly promised the name of the general to stimulate this group of people.

After saying this, he suddenly said to Liu Bei again: "Uncle Huang fought hard all night yesterday, do you need to rest now?"

Although Liu Bei didn't know why the emperor asked this, he couldn't say that he wanted to rest, so he could only say: "This is a matter within the minister's responsibility, not to mention hardship, what does Your Majesty command?"

Liu Xuan waved his hand, signaling everyone to disperse and go about their own business, and then said to Liu Bei: "Since Uncle Huang doesn't want to rest yet, just walk around with me first, and I can also talk to Uncle Huang and be close to him." ”

It is not uncommon for the emperor to be close to his uncle, after all, they are all members of the royal family, and it is inevitable that there will be some royal secrets to talk about. When everyone saw the emperor say this, no one dared to intervene, and immediately bowed their heads and said goodbye, how far away they flashed - whether the royal secret matter is good or bad, it is a sin for you to listen to it, so it is better not to listen.

Liu Xuan and Liu Bei went out of the big tent one after the other, at this time everyone was already hiding far away, doing their own things, although Zhang Liao was guarding not far away, but he also distanced himself, so as not to hear anything.

Liu Bei didn't know what the emperor was going to say to him, but seeing such a posture, he was a little nervous, Liu Xuan turned around, and found that Liu Bei had sweat stains faintly flowing out of his forehead, and he didn't know if he was tired last night or because of something beside him.

waved to Cao Bao casually, and the little eunuch took out a clean silk handkerchief and handed it to Liu Bei, Liu Bei thanked him first, and then gently wiped his sweat, but the sweat still kept flowing out, and it didn't take long for his cheeks to be like a small waterfall.

Liu Xuan didn't see it, and kept going around the camp with Liu Bei, and after looking around, he returned to his big tent and said to Liu Bei: "Uncle Huang has something on him, I want it." ”

Hearing Liu Xuan open his mouth to call himself myself, Liu Bei's heart was slightly relaxed because he had walked a long circle: "I don't know what Your Majesty is referring to?"

Liu Xuan didn't say it explicitly, but continued: "This thing is not very useful to Uncle Huang, it is ...... It is extremely important to this Han family, and I don't hide it from the emperor's uncle, if this thing has been on the emperor's uncle, I won't be able to sleep and eat......"

In a word, Liu Bei's whole person was dizzy, and he said secretly: "Does the emperor want my life?" But he couldn't figure it out, because he didn't do anything worthy of the emperor's attention? Could it be that the Son of Heaven could not allow the Han clan to have too outstanding people, for fear of threatening his status? But if that was the case, why would he let himself recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors?

I couldn't understand it, but this fear was a little lighter, and at this time, Liu Xuan said: "Uncle Huang doesn't have to worry, after this thing is taken, Uncle Yu's life will be fine, but it will make Uncle Huang weak for a while, as if he was seriously ill." ”

As soon as he said this, Liu Bei was even more confused, and even wondered if the emperor had fallen into evil today, how could he say something so headless and brainless that people couldn't understand it?

When he remembered that the emperor knew some occult arts, he remembered some legends of gods and ghosts, so even if Liu Xuan said that he would not hurt his life, Liu Bei was still worried.

It's just that the current situation can't be chosen by him, Liu Xuan has already made it clear: If this thing is not taken away, the emperor will not be able to sleep and eat!

As a courtier, he made it difficult for the emperor to sleep and eat, so he still had a good life? So no matter how you look at it, this thing that he doesn't know what it is, he really has to hand it over.

Since Weichen has what His Majesty needs, His Majesty can just take it. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Liu Xuan leaning closer, pressing one hand on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "This is the best, Uncle Huang is relieved, after I take this thing, I will definitely have something in return." As soon as the words were finished, the palm of his hand was slightly raised, and Liu Bei saw that as the palm of the Son of Heaven was raised, there was a golden thing twisting between the palm and his shoulder, and at a glance, it was a golden dragon body.

P.S: Maybe it's because I've been writing to the end of the first volume, and I've been writing very slowly lately, but I'll pay off my debt as soon as possible and try to finish it by the end of this month.
