It's all abstract destiny, you're one emperor through the ages

Chapter 87

Liu Ke lay on the couch, listening to He Kunhui's registration.

In general, it is similar to what he thought, and the ministers who want to occupy a state and develop stably account for the majority.

With Qiongzhou's basic situation, there are very few people who can let go of everything and let him fight Donghu with his life.

People are rational, the gap between the big man and the Donghu is too big, and it will not affect anything because of the emperor's successive victories.

Liu Ke got up, put on his unlined clothes, and straightened his skirt:
"Wang Zhao rejected you three times, and I also rejected him three times. I have given you the opportunity. It's time to go to court."

"Yes."

He Kun didn't dare to say too much, these days, it wasn't just Wang Zhao who wanted to see His Majesty in private, those important officials of the family wanted to find out, but none of them saw Long Yan.

"What is His Majesty thinking? Do you really want to annihilate the entire Donghu navy with the few ships and pirates you brought back?"

"In any case, this is not what I, a big man, should be doing at the moment."

"My lord, should we try to persuade him in private?"

Donghu repaired the book to negotiate a peace, and the emperor did not go to court.

But among the ministers, it was very lively, posting and paying homage, sleeping with passion, or exchanging ideas in brothels and Goulan wine houses.

"Maybe I want to take advantage of the opportunity to mobilize a group of people."

Wang Zhao pondered, the emperor can beat Donghu Nanjing repeatedly, it is impossible for him to be so unwise, being dazzled by the broken ship and pirates in his hand, and wanting to confront Donghu head-on at sea.

The high probability is to fight first, and then use this reason to clean up a group of people, install confidantes, promote new people, and then reach an agreement.

In this way, both face and face were gained, and a batch of newcomers who were better grasped were replaced.

"Game of Thrones."

After hearing this, other officials also understood.

"It seems that His Majesty's stealing from various houses at night is just a signal of release."

Wang Zhao nodded and said, "That's right. Everyone knows about Emperor Huan's past. His Majesty is telling everyone that he wants criminal evidence."

"It doesn't matter if you don't steal, or even if you don't steal at all. As long as you reveal your intentions, there will naturally be people who want to be superior, and they will give evidence of their crimes."

Those officials were even more annoyed: "Your Majesty really treated the family so harshly, and came up with such a vicious plan to divide us!"

But Wang Zhao smiled: "Even if we don't divide, will we be monolithic?"

"Then according to the adults' opinion, what should be done?"

"Your Majesty has a lot of suspicions about me and other important officials of the family. You should wait for the court meeting and wait for the changes. You can't beat the Donghu Navy. If you have a clear conscience, why should you be afraid?"
-
The first year of Zhaowu, summer, August eighth.

Officials participating in the court meeting have arrived one after another.

In the main hall converted from the state capital, blood has been spattered three times since Zhaowu reigned for half a year.

Once, it was Yu Wenbai, the official who usurped power.

Once, it was a family member who rebelled against the family.

Once, it was a veteran of the former family.

The court was blood-stained, never before had it been so frequent and intense like the Zhaowu Dynasty.

But this time the ministers didn't think too much.

It is the enemy who is at present, and the East Hu navy on the sea is under great pressure, and the emperor will never do anything to the ministers.

Liu Ke was lying on his side on the golden throne, with a jade seal in his hand, and he was out of shape:
"Since Donghu made the peace, I have been thinking about something day and night, so that I couldn't go to court."

"What do you want to play?"

Gan Wenjin stood among the officials, a little uncomfortable.

The main reason is that everyone buttoned their collars very tightly and paid attention to etiquette. He likes to open his front, which is out of place.

So he jumped out first and said:

"Your Majesty Qizuo, due to the changeable weather and lack of training of the soldiers, three warships have been lost."

The officials looked at each other in blank dismay. They were planning to discuss this matter slowly, but they didn't expect to start the lightning strike directly.

Before the fight, three ships were lost!
Is the Han navy so bad, why does the emperor still want to fight?
One came out and said:

"Your Majesty, those pirates must be ambitious and flee with their ships. These thieves have been pirates for a long time, so it's unbelievable!"

"Unbelievable?"

Liu Ke is still playing with Yuxi:

"I know it's not credible, but at least they dare to fight and float on the sea. Even if they are not credible, I have to use them!"

Only then did Wang Zhao come out and say:
"The Donghu people are like eagles, dogs, tigers and leopards, with many soldiers and broad generals, and excellent ships."

"Your Majesty went to sea, and although he brought back ships that are available to those who can use them, he can only stay close to the shore."

"The enemy is outnumbered, how can we attack?"

"Therefore, according to my humble opinion, it is best to make peace for the time being, cultivate your health and rest, and wait for the opportunity!"

Liu Ke didn't answer directly, it's my humble opinion, stupid opinion, why listen to him?
He just moved his arm, and a corner of the sleeve robe fell to the ground. He patted the base of Jin Luan, and said:
"Come on, bring things in!"

Afterwards, Hua Chengyu and the guards brought a hen, a chick and an eagle into the temple.

The important ministers of the aristocratic family were puzzled, did the emperor want to watch the eagle catch the chicken in the court?
It's not impossible, the big man already has an institution that is in charge of the emperor's hounds - the dog supervisor.

When Emperor Gao entered the Qin Palace, "thousands of women with tents, dogs, horses, treasures and treasures in the palace wanted to stay in them." That is to say, Emperor Gao regarded dogs as important as beauties and treasures.

The famous and famous Emperor Xiaowu also liked to watch beast fighting, and he specially built the Quantai Palace, and outside the Quantai Palace, he also built a running dog temple.

Shanglin Garden was also built by Emperor Xiaowu to hunt and train animals.

Emperor Xiaoling even puts a hat on the dog to make him an official!
Today, His Majesty's nickname is Pheasant, if he likes chickens, he may really have a pure blood, and the Han Dynasty is orthodox.

"Donghu people are eagles, dogs, tigers and leopards. Could it be that eagles, dogs, tigers and leopards must be able to eat chicken?!"

Is not it?
The important ministers of the aristocratic family even sneered, seeing that the chicken in the palace was much smaller than the eagle opposite, could it still beat the eagle?

Before the ministers recovered their senses, the eagle seemed to have been hungry for several days, so it jumped straight at the chicken.

Just when everyone thought that a cruel scene was about to be staged, the hen did not hide, flapped her wings and swaggered, guarding in front of the chick, and pecked fiercely at the eagle.

Unable to dodge, the eagle was pecked violently by the hen, and its wings fluttered. Unfortunately, it failed to fight back several times, and was pecked off by the hen instead, forcing it to the foot of the wall.

Liu Ke had someone grab the hen and chicks to his side, saying:

"Can someone tell me why this chicken is better than an eagle?"

The officials looked at each other in blank dismay, and even Hua Chengyu, who personally brought the two animals into the palace, was dumbfounded.

Chicken. Can beat the eagle?

They also want to know why!
It was Xiao Yuanchang who reacted quickly, and took the opportunity to come forward and say:
"The two fight each other, divided into the right time, the right place, and the right people."

"It doesn't matter the time of day."

"The eagle preys on its prey by swooping down in the air, grabbing the prey with its claws from behind, hoisting it into the air, and then throwing it to death."

"But this eagle is fighting the hen head-on. After landing, it stands on its two claws, and its sharp claws have nowhere to play."

"The hen takes advantage of the place."

"The eagle wants to catch the chicks to fill its stomach, and has no intention of fighting the hen, but the hen is different. To protect the chicks, it will naturally fight the eagle with all its strength."

"This is harmony between people."

"A hen occupies a favorable location and people, so she can naturally defeat an eagle."

What Xiao Yuan often said is not bad, and there are many records of hens pecking away eagles in later generations, not to mention that Liu Ke also has a "General Cricket", a small animal with the destiny of being brave and good at fighting.

It's mystical, but that's how it is.

Liu Ke said: "Xiao Qing is right. There is an ancient saying that the right time is not as good as the right place, and the right place is not as good as the harmony of people."

"What is this man? The hen is not afraid of the eagle, it dares to fight!"

"Such boldness should be rewarded!"

"Reward him for founding the mansion, and make him the king of Qiongzhou mansion!"

The ministers hurriedly dissuaded him.

The emperor used the battle between the chicken and the eagle as a metaphor for the battle between the big man and the Donghu, no problem.

It is okay to use the rooster to dare to fight against the eagle and win, to imply that the big man can only defeat Donghu if he takes the initiative to attack Donghu.

But if you give a reward to a chicken, even a chicken has a higher rank than them, so there is a problem!
Wang Zhao was a little dazed, thinking that the emperor wanted to use this to promote newcomers, but he did not expect to promote a chicken.

"Why not?"

Liu Ke stood up abruptly, and knocked the jade seal in his hand on the table heavily, making a bang.

"When it comes to ships, I'm not as big as Donghu."

"In terms of soldiers and horses, I am not as good as Donghu."

"It's about aggressiveness and courage, if it's not as good as Donghu."

"Then vote!"

"Huang Tu's hegemony is either a big achievement or a big defeat, how can he linger on!"

He had already replaced it with a chessboard, and the chessboard repeatedly knocked on the table.

"What is a chicken? It's my Han people, it's my Han territory!"

"Eagle is hungry!"

"He's staring at your chick, just waiting for you to let your guard down, dive down from the sky, and grab everything from your back!"

"If a chicken dares to fight an eagle, how can the princes in the court be inferior to a chicken?"

"Not only do I want to make him a king, but I also want to make him a great general!"

"The mighty general!"

"I don't dare to fight, and I want to negotiate a peace. Then I will let this chicken, with soldiers, go and beat the Donghu people! Peck and sink nearly a thousand ships into the sea!"
