Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 912 It’s time to win over!

Following the emperor's order, the palace suddenly became quiet, but the slight noise was not eradicated. Many civil and military officials were whispering and discussing what news had come.

After all, the fight between the two kings cannot be discussed in this solemn hall, whether those who have already taken sides or those who are waiting and watching. Moreover, listening to the opinions of the people on both sides just now, it is obvious that they are tit for tat. This thing feels like a good fight.

Moreover, there are many undercurrents behind this matter. On the surface, it is a confrontation between King Guanghan and King Ganling, but in fact it is a struggle between two power groups, not to mention that King Langya himself represents another faction of the clan, which is complicated.

But other civil and military officials did not want to get involved, because the current situation was already complicated enough. Just at this time, news came, saying that it was the seven drums of the court meeting. Obviously it was not good news, but at least it could change the topic.

"Mr. Chen, what do you think will happen this time?"

Among the civil and military officials, there was Yang Jie, the great minister, who stood beside the servant Chen Yong and asked in a low voice.

They are both members of the Jiuqing, at the forefront of the hundred officials. However, due to the gradual emergence of party strife in the court, which has brought about a series of changes in the power structure, the power of the Jiuqing has become increasingly declining, so not many people pay attention to the two of them. , so no one was paying attention.

Moreover, because of Chen Zhi, it is well known that the Yang family and the Chen family are close.

However, compared to half a year ago, Chen Yong, the servant and the pillar of the Chen family, looked much older. His eyes were deeply sunken, as if he had aged ten years.

This is because his son Chen Die refused to listen to dissuasion and joined the army and went to Shu. As a result, because of the rebellion of the Li family, his life and death were unknown for a long time, and he was basically confirmed to be involved in it.

The pain of losing a child in old age is unbearable even for Chen Yong. If he hadn't considered that the Chen family still couldn't live without him, he might have retired and returned home.

However, after this incident, Chen Yong's whole person became more and more old, and he was not very active in the affairs of the court, and the authority that was gradually injured gradually faded. Discussing two sentences will not involve them.

Hearing the inquiry at this time, Chen Yong shook his head gently and said: "Nowadays, there is unrest in all directions. There are frequent wars in the north, and the Huns are planning behind the scenes. In the south, the mountain people are in trouble, and rebellions are starting to emerge. Although Guanzhong in the west is peaceful, there are other places in the Western Regions. But bad news comes from time to time. As for the south from Guanzhong...there are Li thieves wreaking havoc in Shuzhong. If there is any war at this time, it will probably be in these places."

Yang Jie nodded and said: "I hope this matter has nothing to do with Youzhou, otherwise you and I will not be able to live in peace. Now that the two kings are fighting, the momentum is becoming more and more obvious. Both sides are wooing each other, and Zhang Ying is also here. To win over, I am staying out of the matter now and can watch it calmly, but once they catch me with an excuse, I may be involved."

These two people, one is Chen Zhi's Taishan and the other is Chen Zhi's great-uncle. If there is any excuse for being caught at the same time, it is the fault of Daijun of Youzhou.

Fortunately, they also know that for more than half a year, Dai County has been focusing on development, while developing production, opening up business channels everywhere, quite a posture of making a fortune silently, and believe that this war should not have much to do with Dai County.

However, the two of them also understood that it should not be far away when Wang Jun attacked Dai. The recent correspondence with Dai Jun kept conveying such a situation and news——

After Wang Jun rectified Pingzhou, it was obvious that he was going to mobilize troops and generals, but the specific time had not yet been determined.

The two of them were thinking that someone had already entered the palace. Of course, it was not the person who came to send a message, but the palace guard. This person came to an eunuch's ear and whispered a few words. The eunuch's expression changed slightly, as if he was shocked. Seemingly angry, without any delay, he turned around, walked up the steps, and came to the side of the regular servant Mo Anjie. He also whispered, and then the emperor's newest confidant also showed a look of surprise, and then waved He waved his hand to let the little eunuch go down, and then he took small steps and turned sideways to the emperor's side, but he didn't dare to go any further.

"What's wrong?" Liu Dai saw what the other party meant and asked.

Mo Anjie said: "There is a military incident in the north. This matter has not been confirmed yet, so it is difficult to tell it in court."

"North?" Liu Dai was very surprised.

King Guanghan and King Ganling frowned.

Zhang Ying, Yang Jie, and Chen Yong, however, had their hearts skipping a beat at the same time, each with their own thoughts.

The rest of the people couldn't help but whisper, and the hall suddenly became chaotic.

"quiet!"

The King of Guanghan raised his voice to silence everyone's discussion, and then came out in front of the emperor. He greeted the emperor and said: "Since it is a military situation, and the drums are played in the court meeting, it must be a matter of great importance. I will disperse the court meeting first and call for a meeting." Minister, please understand first."

"Yes, brother, this is a safe word!" Liu Dai nodded, "Then, brother, please stay with the nine ministers and listen to this matter in the imperial study. The remaining ministers will withdraw from the court first. If you have any questions, Let’s talk about it later.”

"Retreat!"

At Liu Dai's signal, the eunuchs shouted orders, and the ministers bowed and retreated. Naturally, some of them wanted to play one or two, but in the face of the rules left by Emperor Xuanwu, they did not dare to challenge them. I can only hold it in my heart, and at the same time I am curious about the war in the north.

If we talk about the north, it can be said that there are constant disputes. The one that attracts the most attention is Jizhou. Because it is close to the capital, it will inevitably attract people's attention. And Youzhou further north is also quite eye-catching. I heard that it often fights with the barbarians. .

I don’t know what happened this time.

Don't say that they, even the two county kings, actually didn't know about it, because the news was delivered by a fast horse, but because of the war in Jizhou, Bingzhou was occupied by the Huns, and the transmission post was not smooth, so it has been delayed until now, and then Because of the seriousness involved, it had to be reported to the upper management as soon as possible.

But it was a court meeting at that time, and it was logically difficult to interrupt it, but the military situation was on fire, and the people below really didn't dare to delay, because no matter how powerful the two warring parties were in the court, the news stayed in my hands for too long, so I didn't have to worry about it. Even the responsibility was involved, so I found a rule and beat the drum to announce it.

Therefore, when this military information was presented to everyone, one can imagine their expressions.

"Jizhou has not yet been pacified, but Youzhou actually started fighting again! It was the imperial officials who took the initiative to jump up!" After reading the battle report, the King of Guanghan spoke first, "He, Wang Jun, is arrogant in Youzhou and Pingzhou. For a blessing, the court has been dissatisfied with this matter for a long time, but he didn't know how to restrain himself and actually attacked Daijun rashly? This is simply unreasonable!" As he said that, he glanced at Chen Yong and Yang Jie not far away, both of whom were immediately confused. It was a look of shock and worry.

No matter how low-key Jiuqing is, he has certain resources and power after all. Now that the kings are fighting for power, they all need to win over allies, like Yang Jie and Chen Yong, of course they don't want to let them go.

Although he was shocked when he just received the news, he was a powerful figure. King Guanghan immediately made up his mind and came up with an idea——

"I might as well take advantage of this opportunity and sell favors to the two of them. Wang Jun will definitely be unable to control it. The imperial court can't even take action from Jizhou for the time being, let alone Youzhou? Chen Zhi will definitely be defeated. , but before his defeat, I tried my best to show favoritism and help. This Chen Zhi doesn't matter, but if the chief minister and the servant can win over, then the power of the court will be with me again!"

With this thought, he looked towards King Ganling again.
