I am the Empress Dowager!

Chapter 243 The sharp knife in the hands of the Han monarch

Geng Kui had no chance to refute, and he was not prepared to make any resistance. He just kept silent and let the soldiers around him take off his armor.

Then he forced himself to go to the execution place outside.

Looking at Geng Kui, who usually looked arrogant and domineering, he was dragged away like a joke, and then the sounds of whipping were heard in the Chinese army tent.

Others may still have a heavy look on their faces, but Zheng Jian, one of the burly generals in the corner, could not help but clenched his fists in excitement.

When he saw what happened today, he felt that his previous words had an effect.

As the lieutenant general of the Han Dynasty, Zheng Jian also came from a noble family, and he was also a wealthy family.

Otherwise, he doesn't have much merit. How could he reach such a position at this age?

But he hated Geng Kui very much!

Because Zheng Jian once wanted to win over Geng Kui, and he also wanted to be very polite to Geng Kui in exchange for some opportunities. After all, they were the famous Geng family of the Han Dynasty!
What is the status of the Geng family?
To put it simply, if it is said that the marriage of the Han Dynasty is generally a well-matched match.

Then the royal family who can drink the Han Dynasty, the future emperor, or the current emperor can be said to be a good match, and he can choose his wife, the queen.

Such a big man can only count on these two or three families.

Nanyang Deng family and Fufeng Geng family, these two families are impressively on the list!

Others include Fufeng Ma family, Ban family, Luohou Kou family, Hanzhong Liang family, Hongnong Yang family, etc.

These families that sound prestigious now are actually not a tiny bit worse than these two families. It can even be said that they are not on the same level at all.

In this case, Zheng Jian, who also came from an average family background, certainly wanted to cling to the Geng family.

But all his good intentions did not get any benefits or promises from Geng Kui in the end. All he got in exchange was insult!

This boy who also relied on his family to get here step by step, this junior of the Geng family who also relied on his family to get here.

He was still here talking shamelessly about what he said. What he actually said was that he was killed not by his family but by his own real sword and a real gun!
This is downright ridiculous.

Now that Zheng Jian thought about Geng Kui's ugly face, he couldn't help but laugh. Did he really think he was on a mission?
Rely on yourself to kill him with one knife and one shot?

If it weren't for the fact that his name was Geng Kui, or because he was the nephew of Geng Yan, the great general of Jianwei, or because he was the second son of Geng Guo, a general with five senses and a great minister.

Did he think he could get this far?
He didn't need to think about it with his pig brain. There were many soldiers fighting to the death in the world.

How could he step by step reach the position of Liaodong Governor?
Two thousand stones!
What does a prefect worth two thousand dan mean?
Zheng Jian especially wanted to smash his official seal on his face, and then asked him whether he understood the identity of a two thousand stone prefect!
Even for a wealthy family, two thousand dan is the highest treatment for generations.

He even said that he accomplished this with one knife and one shot?
If it weren't for the Geng family, even if he killed all the Huns, how far could he go?
Such a little person, such a boy, what right does he have to look down on himself, and what right does he have to pretend to be yelling at him?

Therefore, Geng Kui did not impeach Zheng Jian, nor did he punish Zheng Jian. He even did not have much communication with Zheng Jian, the great Han lieutenant general who is now responsible for communicating with the Huns.

But Zheng Jian hated him extremely in his heart.

Liu Long wouldn't have believed this kind of feeling if Liang Jin hadn't specifically reminded him of it.

Just a few simple exchanges can make both sides have such a big hatred.

However, we can also find a problem from this incident, that is, Geng Kui can really offend people!
It was not Liang Jin or Zheng Jian who came to this conclusion, but Liu Long looked at Geng Kui who had been dragged out and beaten.So far, no one has stood up to speak for him.

There is no one!

That was Geng Kui. The Geng family could not be said to be a legitimate son, but he was also a very important heir.

Although not as good as today's Cavalry Captain and Hao Jiehou Geng Zhong, this Geng Zhong lineage has now declined.

On the contrary, Geng Guo's lineage is quite impressive.

Today, Geng Kui is the county guard of two thousand stones and the general of their Han border. Although his eldest brother Geng Bing has died of illness.

But Geng Bing was also a famous general of the Han Dynasty back then.

When he was still alive, he not only won the favor of Emperor Xiaoming, but also followed Dou Gu to quell the rebellion of Cheshi. Later, he became the General of Zhengxi and sent troops to rescue Wuji Colonel Geng Gong!

Then he sent troops to attack the Northern Huns, defeated the Northern Huns, and was granted the title of Marquis of Meiyang. Before his death, he directly stepped into the position of Jiuqing, and Huan Yu served as Guangluxun!

Although he only stayed in Jiuqing's position for one year, he died of illness.

But the Geng family lineage has completely risen.

Now that Geng Kui had such a good opportunity, no one present stood up and was willing to speak to Geng Kui.

I have to say that Geng Kui has offended a lot of people over the years.

But it was because he offended people so much that Liu Long was willing to use him.

Because that's what he wants.

To be honest, Liu Long knew that he could not afford to offend the wealthy family. These people could even overturn this huge border.

Although the Han Dynasty can still suppress the four sides, if these wealthy families are really going to cause trouble, what do the Xiongnu, Wuhuan and Xianbei outside mean?
How many jins and taels does this group of people have?
Everyone in this group of aristocratic families stamped their feet, and the land in northern Xinjiang was like a sieve, so that the big man could not eat it and walked around.

The current aristocratic families are too powerful.

Therefore, Liu Long himself knew very well that wanting to solve the problems in northern Xinjiang and the border troops was nothing more than wishful thinking.

And Yu Xu, who had just been transferred to him as the governor of Yanmen and the chief secretary of the army, also told Liu Long the same thing.

“These people are not homeless bandits, and we cannot deal with them simply by killing and scaring them.

Many methods are needed to solve them, the most useful of which is differentiation! "

"If the Han royal family wants to deal with these wealthy families, it will inevitably trigger a backlash from them.

But what if the person who dealt with them was originally from a wealthy family?

What will happen to them? "

"Back then, the late emperor had his own relatives, but in fact, Your Majesty can also have his own relatives!"
