The King of Fortune

Chapter 253
After Han Rong took over Xiqi City, in order to let the court get the news a few days earlier, he specially sent Yuan Hong to deliver the good news, because luck is beneficial to his practice. He wants to see how King Zhou will reward him this time. After all, Ji Fa left Xiqi City, and his relationship with Chanjiao was broken. No matter how hard it is to make a difference, he can be regarded as calming down the troubles in Xiqi.

Yuan Hong escaped from the earth, came to Chaoge, asked about Zhang Qian's residence, and he went directly to Zhang's residence.

"The last general, Yuan Hong, has met Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Qian was quite surprised when he saw that the visitor was tall and majestic, so he said: "It is said that the national teacher has a lot of talents. I saw you today, and I believe it."

Yuan Hong said: "Han Shuai's generals are like rain, they are mere last generals, not worth mentioning. Mr. Zhang, this is a good report from my family Han Shuai to the imperial court. Please read it!"

Zhang Qian's expression moved, he took the good news, and slowly unfolded it. After seeing it, he couldn't help but smile, and said loudly: "Okay, okay, Ji Fa handed over Xiqi City, and his prestige was greatly damaged. The big business ZTE is hopeful, ZTE is hopeful!" !"

Yuan Hong smiled and didn't speak. His mission was completed, and it was time to return to Xiqi City.

……

In the royal palace, King Zhou read the good news, Long Yan was very happy, and hurriedly announced the civil and military officials to go to the court to discuss matters.Ji was ambitious, and King Zhou felt that he would not hand over Xiqi City easily. Who knew that things went so smoothly. It seems that Han Rong played a key role in it.

"Everyone, this is the first time that a city has been taken down to show off the power of the court since the imperial court launched an army to attack Xiqi. It is indeed a blessing for the government and the public."

King Zhou was full of joy, looking down at all the civil and military officials.

"My ministers, congratulations to the king."

All civil and military officials congratulated Ji Fa as the leader of the world's princes. His surrender of Xiqi City was more significant than his surrender. The attitude of the world's princes towards the court may change a lot.

King Zhou said: "After this incident, Xiqi can't pose any threat to our great merchants for the time being. The lonely king plans to transfer Han Rong back to Chaoge. How do you think about this matter?"

Zhang Qian cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty is wise, if the national teacher returns to the court song, it will be the jade pillar of my great merchant, and its power will shake the world. At that time, who will dare to violate the prestige of the great merchant."

"Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate. Ji Fasu has ambitions, and Jiang Ziya fueled his arrogance. Although he was forced to leave the nest due to the power of the court, his influence is still there. If the national teacher is transferred back to Beijing, Ji Fasu will lead the way." When the army comes to attack, what should we do?"

When Li Tong heard this, he objected to it without even thinking about it.Han Rong's prestige in Dashang is not inferior to that of the late Grand Master Wen. If he comes back, where will he go?

Besides, he felt that Wei Zi would not agree to Han Rong's return to Chaoge. After all, Han Rong grew up too fast, so he had to guard against it.

But King Zhou said: "Li Qing is overthinking. If Ji Fa leads an army to attack, the lonely king will order Han Rong to put down the rebellion. With Han Rong's ability, it will take a month or two at most to put down the troubles in the West."

Li Tongdao: "Your Majesty, if Ji Fa learns that the National Teacher is going to fight, he retreats back to the city, waits for the National Teacher to return, and then sends troops again. Wouldn't the court be exhausted by running around like this? It is really unwise."

King Zhou frowned. He felt that what Li Tong said was not unreasonable. Ji Fa would definitely not fight Han Rong head-on when he knew he was invincible. This would be a troublesome matter.

But Fei Lian said: "Master Li is so thoughtful, the lower officials admire it, but I don't agree with it."

He and Zhang Qian agree that it is time for Han Rong to return to Chaoge, after all, Chaoge is the center of the empire, and only with a strong heart can he be strong enough to deter the princes of the world.

Li Tong looked at Fei Lian's face and said, "I don't know what Master Fei's opinion is."

Seeing that the two had different opinions, King Zhou couldn't help being interested.

Fei Lian said: "This year, Xiqi has suffered a lot of defeats. If my prediction is correct, no matter whether it is Ji Fa or Jiang Ziya, I am afraid that they will have fear of the national teacher in their hearts, and the relationship between the two Because of the change in the situation, there may be subtle changes in the relationship."

Li Tongqi said: "It's not normal to have changes, so what can this explain?"

Fei Lian said: "When there is a quarrel between the monarch and the ministers, there will inevitably be differences in decision-making. Besides, the two of them are afraid of the national teacher. You think they know that the imperial court will send the national teacher to suppress the rebellion, and they will invade our Dashang border what?"

"There are no absolutes in the world. This is just Mr. Fei's own opinion. I'm sorry I can't agree with it."

Li Tong glanced at Wei Zi, and retreated straight away. His attitude had already been told to the ministers. Next, it all depends on everyone's attitude.

Fei Lian shook his head and said to King Zhou: "Your Majesty, I agree with the National Teacher's Song of Returning to the Court."

King Zhou nodded and asked Wei Zi, "What do you think, Brother Wang, about this matter?"

Wei Zi pondered: "I agree with Li Tong's opinion, even if Han Rong is transferred back to Chaoge, it is not now."

To be honest, Wei Zi is not jealous of Han Rong's talent, he is only thinking about Yin and Shang, the four princes, except for the dead brothers Chonghou and Hu, the other three are all ambitious, he is worried that Han Rong's power will become stronger, and his heart will become weaker. Born with arrogance, but also born with the idea of ​​​​taking over the world.

King Zhou wondered, "Why not now."

Among the several brothers, King Zhou favored Wei Zi the most. His two sons, Yin Hong, are dead, and Yin Jiao has become a strange person, and his whereabouts are unknown. in his hands.

Therefore, the throne can only be handed over to Tiny.

In the past six months, after recuperation, King Zhou's body has recovered a lot, but he knows that the loss of energy is serious, and he can't make it up again. a successor.

Wei Zi said: "My Majesty, Han Rong is in Xiqi, not only has a deterrent effect on Ji Fa, but also has a deterrent effect on the two hundred princes in Xizhen. Moreover, the King gave him Xiqi City, Xiqi City and Boshui If they are connected together, as long as a few strongholds are built along the way, the two places will form a corner, and Ji Fa will find it difficult to go east if he wants to go east."

"Brother Wang is right, but it has nothing to do with whether Han Rong returns to Chaoge or not."

King Zhou was a little puzzled, Li Tong objected to Han Rong's return to the court song, why even Wei Zi objected, could it be that the two had reached an agreement in private, he looked at them suspiciously.

Wei Zi continued: "As far as ordinary people are concerned, it is almost impossible for Ji Fa to win these two cities before the court reacts. But he has a warlock like Jiang Ziya by his side. If Han Rong doesn't sit in Xiqi, maybe he will." Ji Fa took advantage of the loophole, the king had no choice but to guard against it."

King Zhou pondered and said: "Brother Wang's words are also reasonable. After hearing this incident, Ji Fa is afraid that he will not dare to give birth to a betrayal heart easily. Although the lonely king gave the city of Xiqi to Han Rong, he has made great achievements, so if you don't transfer him What's the point of conferring him a national teacher when he returns to Chaoge's post?"

But Weizi said: "Your Majesty, you might as well confer Han Rong as Marquis of Xibo, sit in the western town and command two hundred princes."

Li Tong's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I agree with His Royal Highness Wei Zi's proposal. If the national teacher is named Xibohou, Ji Fa's influence will be further weakened, and the rule of Dashang will be more stable."

"The minister waits to agree."

At this time, more than a dozen ministers stood up.

Zhang Qian and Fei Lian looked at each other and couldn't help sighing.

King Zhou said: "Since this is the case, let Han Rong be named Xibohou and lead the princes of Xizhen."

"Your Majesty Yingming."

The ministers said in succession.

"Since this matter is agreed, let's retreat."

King Zhou waved his hand. Although he admitted that what Wei Zi said was reasonable, he was somewhat dissatisfied that Han Rong was not transferred back to Chaoge.
