"Waste, it's all a bunch of waste, waste, it's all waste!" Zhang Rang had just returned to the palace when he received the news that the princess had been rescued, and the palace was already in chaos. Several of the officers on duty in the palace had already died, and Zhang Rang couldn't find anyone to vent, so he could only scold the densely packed officers and everyone who surrounded the Daming Palace. I was only out of the palace for a day, no, even only half a day, and there was such a big thing in the palace.

There are no six princesses of the royal family, and now the entire Imperial Kyoto has been blocked, and there is still no news of these people. The rest of the Simon clan also suffered heavy losses, and Zhang Rang knew that this was their helpless choice to break their arms, and if they continued to suffer from it. Luo Wang, Haojie Army, and the Guards Army were all dispatched, but now there is still no news coming, which makes Zhang Rang even more angry.

Liu Fan, Zhang Rang slammed his fist on the seat. Although the list of assassins this time was not fully known, Xiang Yu's name appeared in front of Zhang Rang without changing his name. Zhang Rang was already completely annoyed, the Praetorian Guards were passive and sluggish, and even Zhang Rang wanted to withdraw the Praetorian Guards to the military order, but it was difficult to move an inch in the army, and the officers were also powerless under the persecution of the soldiers.

"Damn, is he really my nemesis?" Zhang Rang sat on the chair viciously, originally thinking that the Rectification Praetorian Guard could eliminate the unstable factor of the Liu family with its absolute strength, but he didn't expect the Liu family to become stronger and stronger under Liu Fan's belt, and now he has occupied Yangzhou and Jingzhou, completely cutting off Zhang Rang's Jiangnan tax income. The financial revenue of the imperial capital lost a piece of treasure land in the south of the Yangtze River. In an instant, he carried a big mountain on his back. Zhang Rang controlled several states although wealthy. But the taxes that those state capitals were able to provide were compared to Zhang Rang's jihua. That's just a big deal. In the land south of the Yangtze River, Zhang Rang, a piece of fiscal and tax land, must be taken down no matter what.

On the surface, Zhang Rang was extremely beautiful, and the army of more than 3 million people in his hands had won the allegiance of a group of powerful people, but what could this be? Money, grain, war horses, weapons, and so on could all be provided for Zhang Rang. Even the soldiers he needs can provide them, but the righteousness and the will of the people are things that Zhang Rang will never be able to get. Zhang Rang's hand has not yet stretched very long, and many shili are obedient to him on the surface, secretly recruiting troops and waiting to make a difference in this troubled world.

The princes and princes have a kind of Xiangning, the empire has inherited a thousand-year-old title, and among those princes and nobles who have multiplied for thousands of years, which one is a fuel-efficient lamp? Not to mention those who were born poor and cannot be reused, the imperial system of inheritance of titles and official titles has blocked the way for the promotion of many people, even if the imperial examination system for the children of the poor family has been opened, how many children of the poor will be hired by the princes and nobles of the empire for their own rights and interests? It can even be said that there are not many people, and most of these poor children have to work for some powerful people. Otherwise, you will never be promoted.

This is the status quo of the empire, this is the monopoly of the powerful of the empire. The children of the powerful and the poor have been deeply imprinted since birth. The children of the poor family want to get ahead, except for the military, the other roads are thousands of troops crossing the single-plank bridge. The empire is martial, on the other hand, it is not the imperial system that forces the people of the empire to be martial. Only by devoting oneself to the military and fighting on the battlefield can one win meritorious service, fight for fame and fortune, and return home with brocade clothes.

The Liu family has now become a lingering shadow for Zhang Rang forever, and Zhang Rang, the emperor's testament, knows a little more or less, and he has never taken the Liu family to heart. Although the Liu family has a certain say in the army, and the Liu family has a lieutenant and a general, but after all, the military power is in the hands of He Muping. And Shili, who is standing behind Zhang Rang, has never regarded the Liu family as a strong opponent.

Now Zhang Rang has no way to regret it, his wings are not full, and the Praetorian Guards are vaguely out of control. Even the two Praetorian Guard legions stationed in Tongguan and Hujiao Pass have signs of instability, and the Haojie Army and the Dragoon Army are still regrouping, even if they are sent to Yangzhou at this time, they will not play much role. Moreover, today's Liu Fan is no longer the Liu Fan of the past, his personal strength is already very strong, not to mention that there are divine beasts and soul beasts, and it is no less difficult to kill Liu Fan than to ascend to immortals. Moreover, among Liu Fan's subordinates, the masters are no less than Zhang Rang's, and even in the army, the handsome talents of the Liu family army are even more crowded.

It's just that judging from the Liujia army's several battles, almost every army that has acted has appeared in a place that Zhang Rang didn't expect, or it has been expected, but there is no way to stop the Liujia army's overwhelming offensive. Jingzhou can be said to have fallen in a battle, and the battle in Yangzhou did not last long, and the entire Yangzhou had already surrendered to the troops of the Liu family's army. The Praetorian Guard and the Liu Jiajun only fought for a few short times, and there was no more fighting.

Zhang Rang sat on the chair a little decadently, and the guards still shouted loudly in his ears, the appearance of the dead soldiers was not just to rush to kill the Daming Palace, and there were also fires everywhere in the palace. The killing moves of Xiang Yu and others are really terrifying, and now the palace is still in a mess, and the guards are running back and forth to extinguish the fire and treat the injured. Zhang Rang was rubbing his slightly aching head, and a hand stretched out from behind and slowly massaged Zhang Rang.

"Xiao Gaozi, is the matter done?" Zhang Rang doesn't have to guess, there is no one else here now except Zhao Gao, and only Zhao Gao understands Zhang Rang's heart best.

"Father-in-law, everything has been done, and the people have been sent out. Zhao Gao Gao said in a low voice, the voice can only be heard by Zhang Rang, Zhang Rang doesn't like others to know about him, so every time Zhao Gao speaks, his voice is very soft, so light that if Zhang Rang doesn't listen carefully, he can't hear what Zhao Gao says, but he likes it, which is also the reason why Weishenme Zhao Gao can get Zhang Rang's trust.

"Father-in-law, in fact, it is not a good thing for father-in-law to save a few princesses. Zhao Gao naturally knew who did this, and he had to find a way to persuade Zhang Rang to withdraw his troops and create an opportunity for Xiang Yu and a few people to escape from the imperial capital.

"Father-in-law, the emperor is still in our hands. Now everyone wants to control one or two royal families to add momentum to themselves, and we control the most important one, the Emperor. Moreover, the imperial capital is heavily guarded, and no one will be stupid enough to go to the imperial capital to save the emperor. Therefore, these targets will only be aimed at the princesses who were rescued this time, they are all political capital, and if we operate well, it may not cause some trouble to the Liu family. ”

"Father-in-law, now the one in the south is going to get married. The Liu family army has been shrinking its forces to deal with the attack of the Sea Clan, this time we are taking this opportunity to ease the relationship with the one in the south, and there have been different voices in the court recently, it is time for my father-in-law to clean up. Zhao Gao's voice is very low, but it is full of temptation, Zhang Rang is most worried and concerned about Emperor Xian and his court, Zhao Gao clicked two key points at once, can Zhang Rang not be tempted? )
