Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 128: Public Opinion in the Capital

Jinling City.

Recently, the news that King Yan defeated the Beidi people and captured Kutu alive spread in the court.

To the ministers in the court, the fact that King Yan defeated the Beidi people was quite reasonable.

But they couldn't believe it when King Yan captured Kutu alive.

After arguing for several days, they decided to let King Yan send Kutu to the capital.

More than ten years ago, the relationship between Da Song and Beidi was not as bad as it is now.

Kutu once came to the capital as an envoy from Beidi to pay tribute.

Therefore, the ministers in the court vaguely remembered Kutu's appearance.

If it was really Kutu that King Yan captured, they would naturally have nothing to say.

certainly.

Many courtiers actually confirmed the fact that King Yan captured Kutu from various channels.

However, a little Prince Yan and an unfavored prince made them, or the people behind them, feel uncomfortable.

When King Yan made great achievements and received rewards, they always wanted to cause some trouble for King Yan.

At the same time, while they were excited about this incident, they also felt extremely scared.

Kutu is not an ordinary Beidi person, nor is he an ordinary Langlu.

Back then, Beidi Khan ordered the massacre of the city due to the deaths of several wolves.

They didn't dare to think about how Beidi Khan would react if Da Song captured Kutu.

Based on two considerations, they advised Zhao Heng to immediately escort Kutu and the two Beidi Langlu to Jinling.

South study.

Dou Wei stood at the foot of the steps, and Zhao Heng was reading a memorial.

"Your Majesty, Mo Zhai violated the emperor's order and sent troops to Yan County without permission. He was simply ignoring the emperor's order. I thought that he should be dismissed from his position as the general of Yan Pass and a new general should be selected to replace him." Dou Wei said.

The last time Mo Zhai went to Yan County privately, it aroused criticism from the whole court.

After the Yuan family's report was handed over, he immediately impeached Mo Zhai, but was suppressed by Zhao Heng.

Now that Mo Zhai had made a big mistake, he naturally couldn't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

However, he did not do this for the Yuan family.

But to give his nephew, the third prince, a helping hand.

If his own people can guard Yan Pass, the third prince's influence in the court will be greatly improved.

The position of prince is not far away from him.

Zhao Heng frowned and dropped the book in his hand.

This is Yuan Lishang's excerpt, and it talks about Mo Zhai's unauthorized dispatch of troops this time.

"I already know about this." Zhao Heng picked up another booklet.

After the news of King Yan's great victory reached the capital, the court became noisy.

Some say that King Yan falsely reported his achievements, some say that King Yan's capture of Kutu was just a lie, and some say that King Yan deliberately provoked the Beidi people and provoked Beidi's invasion from the south.

Besides King Yan, the one who received the most harsh criticism was Mo Zhai.

The articles of impeachment flew towards his study like snowflakes.

For these high-ranking ministers, he naturally knew their purpose.

It is nothing more than replacing the Yanguan guard with one of his own.

It's just that although he is lazy in court, he is not stupid yet.

Can he still sleep if he puts this world's most important task in the hands of people who are not under his control?

Therefore, he secretly asked a close minister to take the blame and blame all the matter on Mo Di's son, Mo Yu.

"The things mentioned in this document about leading the troops to Yanjun were all done by Mo Yu on impulse. I have sent people to Yanguan. If it is true, Mo Yu will be dismissed from his post immediately. If it is Mo Zhai, I will not We’ll think about it later,” Zhao Heng said.

Dou Wei was slightly disappointed when he heard this.

Mo Zhai, this old fox, is too cunning.

It is estimated that when Mo Yu was asked to go to Yan County, he had already thought that he would be attacked by a group of people from the imperial court today.

"Your Majesty, Xie Kuan is back." At this moment, Liang Cheng's voice sounded outside the door.

Zhao Heng stood up immediately after hearing this, his voice trembling slightly, "Kutu and the two Beidi Langlu are here?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, and King Yan specially sent a thousand cavalry to escort him." Liang Chengdao.

Seeing how excited Zhao Heng was, Dou Wei bowed and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. This time King Yan captured the nine kings of Beidi, which really shows the prestige of our country."

Zhao Heng laughed loudly. After losing Ning Jindu Si, there were very few things that made him happy in these years.

"Dou Aiqing, come with me to see if it's the Kutu from back then." Zhao Heng strode out of the study.

Thinking of something, he said to Liang Cheng: "You now send someone to inform the nobles and ministers."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Liang Cheng went happily.

at this time.

Xie Kuan and Chen Hu were waiting outside the Meridian Gate.

The silver-armored Yanjun cavalry is in sharp contrast to the red military uniforms and black-armored Imperial Guards.

Many people in the capital pointed at the Yanjun cavalry.

"Chief Lieutenant Chen, how does the capital city compare with Yancheng?" Xie Kuan looked at Chen Hu, feeling a bit like showing off to the country people.

Along the way, this Chen Hu was taciturn and rarely talked to him.

This made him slightly unhappy who was used to compliments.

"It is certainly more prosperous than Yan County." Chen Hu said.

He had to admit this. The north-south avenues of the capital's streets were 100 meters wide, several times that of Yan County.

Even on such a wide street, there are still a lot of people and traffic.

Moreover, no one was seen in linen clothes among the pedestrians in the street, and at last they were made of cotton. Compared with many families in Yan County who did not own any trousers, they were indeed much richer.

"Hahaha..." Xie Kuan smiled proudly, "Although the imperial city is rich, in the land south of the Yangtze River, such rich cities are dotted all over the place."

Then his eyes flickered, "There is nothing worth remembering about the poor Yan County. If Captain Chen is willing, I can recommend him to stay in the capital as an official and general from now on. How about that?"

Chen Hu's eyes suddenly became sharp, "A son does not despise his mother's ugliness, and a dog does not despise the family's poverty. Chen Hu is dull, but he also understands this truth. If everyone in Yan County was greedy for money and goods and forgot their responsibility to protect the land, there would be no great victory today."

Xie Kuan was speechless by Chen Hu, laughed sarcastically and stopped talking.

At this time, I saw a pair of horses coming out of the city gate.

Xie Kuan immediately dismounted and knelt on the ground. This was the arrival of the emperor.

Chen Hu grew up in Yan County and had never seen such a scene, but seeing Xie Kuan like this, he knew that the emperor was coming.

He also dismounted and led the soldiers to kneel down on one knee.

Luan Jia stopped in front of the two of them, and Zhao Heng walked down with the help of Liang Cheng.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live." Xie Kuan shouted.

"Pingshen." Zhao Heng waved his hand and turned his attention to Chen Hu.

Each of these cavalrymen wore fine silver armor, and the soldiers were all strong. Their momentum was not inferior to that of his imperial army.

He thought to himself, if all the soldiers of the King of Yan were like this, it would be no wonder that they could defeat the Beidi people.

Dou Wei served beside Luan Jia, who was even more surprised than Zhao Heng.

He has been to the border to supervise operations and is familiar with military affairs.

A layman looks at the excitement, an expert looks at the door.

Zhao Heng saw that the armor was excellent, but what he saw was the craftsmanship of the armor.

Among the current military commanders in Dasong, no one can make the scales of the armor so evenly thick.

It is really surprising that King Yan was able to create such high-quality armor in such a bitter and cold place.
