Chapter 88 Closing the Deal
"Hey! What day is it today? There are so many distinguished guests here. No wonder the magpies were chirping on the branches of Prince Gu's Mansion yesterday."

Early in the morning, I heard Liu Zhong coming to report that Situ Yangci, Yuan Wei, Ma Rixi, Yuan Pang, He Jin and other family heads had come to pay homage to the King of Hejian with gifts.

What an oddity!

Last month they were still fighting each other, and he even scolded Yuan Huai to death. Will these people break into the Hejian Palace and continue the second round with him this month?
"Hey! That's strange! I didn't expect Uncle Cai to be here too."

Liu Han looked around and saw that not only Ma Rixi, the teacher's senior brother, but also the teacher's friend Cai Yong was here today.

"This"

Cai Yong didn't want to come. There was a dispute in the court last month. Although Cai Yong did not verbally criticize Liu Han like others, he did not speak for Liu Han either. Instead, he remained silent and watched from the sidelines.

But the news came from nowhere, saying that Yan'er entered the palace because the Queen Mother intended to match her with King Hejian, and King Hejian did not reject her, so she could not resist the persuasion of other families and had to come.

"It's all a debt of gratitude!"

Cai Yong sighed in his heart, "My dear nephew, I am just accompanying you today."

Before Cai Yong could finish his words, he was interrupted by Liu Han, "Uncle Cai didn't explain it clearly to me just now. I heard the news from the concierge, but my uncle knocked on the door."

"This alas!"

Cai Yong remained silent and looked at the others around him. His meaning was very clear. I have done what you told me, and the rest is none of my business.

"My lord."

In the end, it was Yang Ci who took the initiative to stand up, bowed to Liu Han first, and then said the purpose of his visit, "We are visiting together today. We just hope that the prince can tell your majesty about the queen."

"Stop!"

Liu Han interrupted Yang Ci because he had already guessed the purpose of everyone's visit. Then he saw the beer-belly man. Even though he was wearing official uniform, he still couldn't hide his identity as a butcher.

He is tall and tall, like a hunter, his skin has become dark from years of slaughtering animals, and his eyes are like ice in the cold winter, cold and sharp, his beard is messy and rough, and his hands are rough and strong. His body is filled with a sense of A strong smell of blood.

"He Jin!"

Liu Han could recognize this person at a glance.

Unexpectedly, although He Jin was not a general at this time, he would have such energy. All the prestigious nobles from Luoyang were here.

"No, he's not qualified yet!"

Liu Han then thought about it, He Jin was not so proud, "Oh, these nobles are really incorrigible, they started to take sides so early."

It is true that He is the empress, but what is more important is Prince Bian. Now he is not only the eldest son, but also the legitimate son. If nothing happens, Prince Bian will definitely be the master of the Han Dynasty in the future, and people like the gentry who are good at maneuvering will surely be Seeing this, I organized my team early.

"The Hongnong Yang family, the Fufeng Ma family, and the Runan Yuan family all came together. It seems that the first reason for coming here today is for Queen He, and the second is to show their muscles in front of themselves, to let themselves know the unity and strength of the noble clan, and to warn Own."

With a plan in his mind, Liu Han said: "This matter depends entirely on His Majesty's Holy Judgment. If you are looking for me, are you looking in the wrong place?"

Yuan Wei secretly cursed the little fox in his heart, "If you don't see the rabbit, don't let the hawk fly! What if I finally persuade your majesty not to depose the queen, but you ruin it with just one word? If you are an ordinary Han clan clan member, that's all. But you are not only the emperor's brother, but also a high-ranking official with a large number of troops. If you don't agree, your majesty must make a careful decision no matter what."

But is it useful to say this?
A month ago, the Luoyang nobles had basically broken up with Liu Han.

"Good nephew"

"I don't dare, kid. I kill people without batting an eye. I don't deserve to be called Ma Daru like that."

Liu Han successfully choked Ma Rixi with just one sentence.

Ma Rixi had no choice but to turn his head and look at Yang Ci. Although Yang Ci scolded Liu Han many times in his heart, he still put down his arrogance and said, "I don't know what the prince needs us to do to advise your majesty." Yang Ci. Ci has made up his mind that the loss of the nobles to Liu Han this time will definitely be recorded on He Jin in the future. Although the outcome of the struggle between the nobles and the King of Hejian was very bad, no nobles dared to do irrational things. Well, the military power in this man's hands is enough to destroy any clan.

Immediately, he looked at He Jin behind him and winked. He Jin understood and stood up, "I hope the prince can help the queen."

Liu Han watched them jump out one by one and felt funny in his heart. This was a typical gambler's mentality. Because he had already invested family resources in the beginning, he didn't want to lose his money and could only keep increasing his chips. In the end, everything was gone. Gone.

Under the guise of being loyal to the Han Dynasty, but acting like a moth, it's really disgusting.

"What does Uncle Cai think?"

Liu Han was really disappointed with these nobles, but for some reason, he still asked Cai Yong by mistake.

"Old man?"

Cai Yong, who was in deep trance, was suddenly asked by Liu Han. He didn't know how to answer for a while, because he felt from the bottom of his heart that he should not get involved in such things. "For ordinary people, this is a family matter. I really can't interfere with the Queen's move." Talk, but the abolition is not only a family matter, but also involves the country's foundation, and the country's foundation cannot be changed easily."

Cai Yong still insisted on his own ideas, which were obviously much more pure than these purposeful nobles.

This made Liu Han feel a lot more comfortable, "It's okay if you want to be a lone gang, but I also need each of your families to provide two years of food, grass, and equipment for an army of [-] people."

"This"

"I haven't finished what I said. I don't want to hear a bad sound about what will happen in Bingzhou in the future."

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you. Although the food, grass, and equipment for a hundred thousand troops are a huge amount, it is acceptable for each family to share one share. But the matter of Bingzhou means that even if Liu Han brings trouble to Bingzhou, If you turn a blind eye, the nobles will turn a blind eye.

"it is good!"

Yang Ci and Yuan Wei looked at each other and made a decision.

In the eyes of Yang Ci and Yuan Wei, this man is afraid that he will drive out all the foreigners in Bingzhou, but is this a big deal in the end?The nobles can accuse you of killing innocent people indiscriminately, or they can accuse you of defending your family and country. It all depends on whether it benefits you or not.

A smile appeared on Liu Han's lips. If Yang Ci knew in the future that Liu Han not only wiped out the foreign tribes, but also purged the Bingzhou nobles, he would definitely regret what he said today, but this is all for later, and it is too late to say anything.

After reaching the deal, everyone no longer lingered and went back home.

"Uncle Cai, so many years have passed since that incident, and uncle still refuses to forgive me?"

"Old man"

"Uncle, uncle knows my temper. If it weren't for uncle, what do you think today?"

Needless to say, Liu Han also knew that Cai Yong also knew that over the years, this child would have people take care of Cai during festivals and daily life. The same is true today. It all depends on his own face, so everyone can see him.

On the contrary, I am getting older and can't lose my face.

Were you right at the beginning?
Just don't want to admit it.

"I have forgiven you a long time ago, good boy, you are a good boy!"

After the words were spoken, Cai Yong suddenly felt more comfortable.

Liu Han smiled. The mistakes he made when he was young were finally forgiven.

Cai Yong left with a smile on his face.
