I rode and slashed unparalleled in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 236 The dynasty is full of mediocre people
Hanoi County, the emperor is here.

August 15th, the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In the open space in the camp, Liu Hong, with a dark face, summoned his officials to discuss this matter.

"How do you think we should deal with the rumors that are spreading this time?"

"Your Majesty will return to Beijing immediately!"

Taishi Zhao Wen advised:
“If a gentleman doesn’t stand under a dangerous wall, how much more will your Majesty, who is the king of all ages, stand under a dangerous wall?”

"The thief is rebellious and foolish, and acts negligently. He may not know what is going on. Please do not alert the enemy in this matter."

Lu Zhi also advised:
"Your Majesty should take advantage of this opportunity and return to Beijing as soon as possible.

At the same time, he secretly mobilized the troops and horses of the prefectures and counties to protect the capital as a safeguard in case of emergency. "

The ministers' opinions were surprisingly unanimous - withdraw!

Liu Hong even asked Zhang Rang and other eunuchs, and they all had the same opinion.

Liu Hong sighed, feeling depressed.

——"This court is full of mediocre people!"

However, with just a few soldiers, it would be really dangerous to go head-on.

And above the court, whether it is General He Jin or Zhang Rang Zhao Zhong, they are no longer on the same journey as him.

Yes, for Liu Hong, this trip to worship ancestors was based on multiple considerations of personal feelings and court politics. He was really unwilling to give up halfway.

Immediately afterwards, he specially brought Empress Dowager Dong and Liu Xie out to worship their ancestors, leaving Empress He and Liu Bian to stay in the capital.

Do you think he is stupid?

Therefore, after the beginning of the year, he revealed in the center that he wanted to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors.

If something unexpected happens to him one day, will the people who are now in power in the court be able to stick to his path?
He has been fighting with those high-ranking families all his life. Will he be changed by his own children at the end?
Therefore, Liu Hong could not even wait for the return of ancestor worship, so he hurriedly mobilized the Xiyuan Army, letting his long-tested confidant Jian Shuo take charge of the army, and at the same time named Dong Zhong, the nephew of Empress Dowager Dong, as a hussar general.

However, the rebellions and wars on all sides this year have been endless, and he has never had the opportunity to make the trip.

Although Liu Bian was older, he was raised by Taoist priests and was weak by nature, acted frivolously, lacked royal majesty, and was easily influenced by others.

But Liu Hong never expected that Wang Fen would be so bold as to mobilize more than 20,000 people on the pretext of the revival of the Montenegrin Army to suppress the bandits and clear the way for him.

This was done to prevent accidents. After consensus, all parties specially mobilized elites from Yulin and the Northern Army, who led a total of 8,000 people!
Of course, dealing with ordinary bandits is no problem.

That day, while Liu Hong was listening to Su Yao's account of Bingzhou's achievements in the West Garden, and looking at his two children, one older and one younger, the sense of urgency in his heart became even more intense.

Liu Hong had a hunch that this might be his last chance to return to his hometown.
In recent years, Liu Hong has vaguely felt that his body seems to be becoming more and more incompetent, considering the longevity of his previous emperors.
Liu Hong was deeply worried that his body would continue to deteriorate, and that he would not have a few years left to slowly take care of himself.

Could it be that God has not blessed me as a big man?

In the middle of last month, after the grand prisoner presentation ceremony and the court meeting the next day, the two consecutive days of "high-intensity" work made Liu Hong feel even more trapped.

Can I just go back?

There seemed to be no other option but to return to Beijing.

But back to Beijing
Liu Hong looked up at the autumn moonlight and sighed.

Su Yao stood up and saluted:

"Wang Fen, your majesty, why should you worry?

I am willing to go there in person. If he is really planning to rebel, I will drag the traitor back and hand him over to His Majesty! "

"Mediocre, mediocre person?"

"What did you say?!"

"presumptuous!"

"Nonsense!"

After a brief moment of astonishment, all the officials exclaimed in disbelief.

They never expected that the Marquis of Guannei, a young man who had been silent and insignificant recently, would speak astonishingly at this moment!
Yes, these people who had been preparing to find Su Yao's little problems were surprised to find that the life of the Guannei Marquis after coming to Beijing was actually so low-key and boring, reclusive. For more than half a month, Su Yao's presence in the capital was as thin as a transparent person. Except for being slightly active when he first went to court, he has remained silent and low-key since then.

To outsiders, his life seems to be extremely simple. Except for going to court and once or twice to Zhen's Mansion, he has always lived in the mansion installed by the court.

Sometimes I don't even see him go out for several days in a row.

Even when he occasionally went to court, he always behaved as calmly as a wood carving and clay sculpture, as if he was isolated from the world. If no one asks a question, he remains silent and turns a deaf ear to what others say.

Frankly speaking, the introverted and calm performance of this Guan Neihou also won him a little praise from some elders.

I thought he understood the rules and learned how to behave.

I am looking for a child to teach.

Now, why did he suddenly make such a shocking statement?
"The Marquis of Guannei"

Lu Zhi frowned, looked at Su Yao and admonished:
"At this critical moment, Wang Fen has raised tens of thousands of troops. If he really intends to rebel, although your bravery is commendable, you may not be able to defeat four hands with two fists.

Moreover, this matter involves His Majesty's safety and the well-being of the world, so we need to consider it in the long term and cannot act rashly. "

"What Lu Shangshu said makes sense."

Linjin Marquis Yang Biao also stood up, paused and nodded in agreement:
"Marquis Guannei, this matter is important and should not be trivial!"

"Then since Wang Fen has raised troops, how can he be unprepared?"

General He Jin then issued an objection:
"If the Marquis of Guan Nei acts rashly, he will fall into a difficult situation. If he is harmed by His Majesty, he will die without redemption!"

After Lu Zhi, a master of classics, Yang Biao, the fourth and third prince, and General He Jin, who represented the military and relatives, expressed their opinions, voices of opposition suddenly arose in the temporary court.

"Your Majesty, please return to Beijing!"

"The son of a rich man cannot sit down in court. Your Majesty, please do not hesitate and miss the opportunity!"

"Your Majesty, please return to Beijing quickly!"

However, Liu Hong's eyes lit up over there. He leaned forward slightly and asked in a deep voice:

"With what Marquis Guannei said, does he have a sure-fire strategy for victory?"

Amidst the voices urging him to quit, Su Yao's enterprising words were like a bright light, dispelling the gloom in his heart.

This made Liu Hong couldn't help but look forward to the general who he transferred back from Bingzhou and brought him a huge surprise. Will he perform well this time?

However, Su Yao's words were very simple, which shocked him:

“Soldiers are valuable and quick to capture thieves and capture kings!

Wait for the minister to rush straight into his camp and capture Wang Fen, and the rebellion will be over! "

"This"

Liu Hong was stunned, and all the officials were also in an uproar.

They didn't expect Su Yao's plan to be so direct and bold!
This is simply like a gambler's crazy idea. You must know that Wang Fen is the governor of Jizhou. He not only has to pass through several cities along the way, but there are tens of thousands of troops there who have begun to recruit. How can he easily enter them? Camp, are you still trying to capture the general?

Isn't this a foolish dream? !
"Didn't Lu Shangshu say that just now?"

Seeing that the task was not received, Su Yao had no choice but to use his sharp tongue and continue to try the appraisal:

"The thief is rebellious, foolish, and negligent. This is the perfect opportunity for us!"

"Lu Shangshu is worthy of everyone. His words are inspiring and have won my heart."

Su Yao glanced at everyone present and talked eloquently:

"Your Majesty is carrying the emperor's flag, leading nearly ten thousand troops, and making a mighty northern patrol. It can be said that he has gathered the attention of everyone in the world."

"If you run away in embarrassment just because of rumors about a clown jumping off the beam, how can you set an example for the world?"

"If you protect yourself so wisely, I'm afraid it will attract everyone's contempt and make the situation corrupt and become more and more out of control!"
