The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1350 Secret Discussion
But just as he was returning to the mansion, he looked preoccupied and unhappy, not because Liu Yin didn't give him face outside the city today, and killed Dong Hong forcefully, Liu Yin didn't even give His Majesty face, Dong Hong is Liu Chen was young and had an unusual relationship with Liu Chen, but Liu Yin forced Liu Chen to kill Dong Hong in public. The most embarrassing person today is probably the emperor himself. Didn’t you see that Liu Chen’s face turned green?

In Shangshutai, Huo Yi is old and sick. In recent years, he has gradually faded out of the core of power, but now he is in the middle of the court. The power of Shangshutai is in his hands, and Liu Yin's strong return , but let Quezheng feel a little worried. Now that the world has settled down, Liu Yin may no longer have to fight in the future. Then Liu Yin, who has returned with credit, is bound to surpass him. This makes Que, who has been in charge of the center for many years, There is a deep sense of crisis, feeling that the authority in his hands is being lost bit by bit.

People who have never held power may be very calm about power, but those who have really held power can hardly let go of their desire for power, especially when they feel that power is slipping through their fingers. expressive.

But at this moment, he had such an experience that before Liu Yin came back, he might still imagine that he could fight against Liu Yin, but today Liu Yin's strength made him understand that he was not qualified to fight him at all. Ji Han's court is likely to be reshuffled.

But the only backer that can be relied on is the emperor, but what happened today, everyone can see that Liu Yin acted without any scruples about anyone's face, even the emperor's face, he did not give it to him, he acted arbitrarily and recklessly , I am afraid that the veterans of the non-Yong family will have to step aside.

"My lord, General Hu, General Li, Li Pushe, Fei Shaofu and other lords, please see me." The manager Xiang Que reported.

But he raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, it's so late, and there are still people coming to visit?It seems that he came here for today's matter, but he was thinking about it and said: "Please."

Soon, General Hu Ji of Zhen Guo, General Li Qiu of Zhen Army, Shang Shu You Pu She Li Hu, Shao Fu Fei Cheng and others came to the hall, and greeted Que Zheng one by one.

After sitting down, he said righteously: "I don't know why your lords came to visit late at night?"

Hu Ji took the lead in saying: "My lord, you are the chief minister of the court. You have personally experienced what happened today. What do you think?"

But he was holding his beard and said indifferently: "Today, King Yong came back from defeating Wu, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty congratulated him. I am not very happy, so what can I think?"

Hu Ji said: "My lord is probably insincere. Everyone here is a man who dares to risk their lives. Why should your lord do this? Today, King Yong returned to Beijing and killed the emperor's close minister Dong Hong forcefully. His Majesty is not the only one who beat him. The face, and it also includes you, my lord!"

Hu Ji touched Quezheng's pain in one sentence, but Zhengzheng didn't speak, and remained silent.

Li Hu said: "Yes, although King Yong has great achievements, he can't be so proud of his achievements. He is so conceited that he doesn't take His Majesty seriously. Then from now on, don't you say that he will kill whoever he wants?" , he can move whoever he wants, we ministers who are not from King Yong's faction, why don't we let him cut them off one by one?"

Several other people nodded and said: "Yes, yes, today King Yong can kill Dong Hong, and tomorrow he can kill anyone. As long as the political views are different from his, I am afraid that everyone will suffer. But my lord, you are the minister of the chief assistant , if you can’t make the decision for everyone, I’m afraid everyone will have a hard time surviving.”

But Zhengzheng snorted heavily and said: "I will explain this matter to Your Majesty. No matter how great the merits of King Yong are, he cannot act recklessly in the court and run amok."

Fei Chengdao: "King Yong mentioned outside the city today that he wants to retire from his old age and return to his hometown. I don't know if he really has this intention or just pretending to be mysterious?"

Hu Ji sneered and said: "You are too naive. Liu Yin is in his prime, but he wants to retire and return to his hometown to take care of his life. It makes people laugh out loud. I think Liu Yin's move is clearly based on retreat. The tactics of advancing, he fought one by one for many years, mentally exhausted, injured and sick, and overwhelmed. This is clearly asking for credit and rewards from His Majesty. He is now King Yong, Da Sima, and commander of the world. Soldiers and horses, recording the affairs of the minister, adding the crown prince and Taibao, under one person, and above tens of thousands, there is no seal or reward. This time, he came back with the merit of defeating Wu and took the opportunity to get rid of Dong Hong , is clearly demonstrating to the emperor, and then retreating to advance. If your majesty agrees to his request to sue the old man, won't everyone in the world laugh at your majesty? But if your majesty really wants to reward him, take What reward? Liu Yin's move is already Sima Zhao's heart, and everyone in the world knows it."

Everyone nodded in agreement, Li Qiu said: "It seems that King Yong's intention to seek rebellion has been clearly revealed."

Hu Ji said rightly to Que: "Master Que, we are not here today for our future career. At worst, if we resign from office, what can Liu Yin do to wait for me? We are here today for the sake of the big man." Jiangshan Sheji thinks about it, and invites Sir Que to enter the palace to face the saint, to explain the situation, and don't let this great country fall into the hands of others."

But he is also worrying about this matter. Today, Liu Yin's performance is not only strong, but also cunning. After killing Dong Hong, he even made a request to resign from his old age and return to his hometown without stopping. Just kidding, you Liu Yin, who is only in his 40s, wants to sue his old age and return to his hometown, so how embarrassing are they for so many 50- and 60-year-old ministers? Should we all resign together instead of going home to support the elderly?
Liu Yin's move is indeed to lead the emperor's army, and he agreed to Liu Yin. He can't explain to the people of the world, but if he doesn't agree to Liu Yin, then Liu Yin must be rewarded to match his merits, but now Liu Yin is already a He is an extremely human minister, and there is no way to seal him or reward him. If Liu Chen wants to be crowned again, he probably has to give up his throne, otherwise there is really no way to satisfy Liu Yin.

Thinking of this, he just felt that it was necessary for him to meet the emperor. It seems that this time when Liu Yin returned to Beijing, he was not only thinking about the position of the chief assistant of Shangshutai, but a higher position. Maybe he felt that his contribution It is already big enough to replace the emperor.

"Sit down, everyone. I'm going to the palace to face the saint right now. This matter is really urgent." But he bowed his hands to Hu Ji and others, and immediately prepared his horse and left the mansion, heading straight for the palace.

But after leaving, Hu Ji, Li Qiu, Li Hu, Fei Cheng and others looked at each other and smiled. The purpose of their trip was achieved.
