Chapter 582 Impeachment
Zhang Xiaojie asked Yelu Hongji to spur the frontline sergeants in order to put pressure on An Chao, so that An Chao was afraid and sent people to negotiate peace with the Liao Kingdom.

This has always been the routine of the Liao Kingdom. The Liao Kingdom often uses troops against the An Dynasty, but the purpose is not to occupy the An Dynasty, because the Liao Kingdom does not have such a strong military capability, manpower and material resources to support the conditions needed to fully control the An Dynasty. .

Therefore, every time the Liao Kingdom defeated the army of the An Dynasty, it made a show. As long as the An Dynasty sent an envoy to negotiate peace with the Liao Kingdom, it would immediately agree. This is a way of taking advantage.

But this time, the Liao Kingdom lingered on the border for too long, so long that the Liao Kingdom's meager financial resources could not support the daily military consumption of the hundreds of thousands of troops on the entire front.

So Zhang Xiaojie started to remind Yelu Hongji!
Yelu Hongji was also in a difficult situation. Now that Zhang Yuanzhi was ill, he was the one to plan the strategy on the front line. If you asked Yelu Aluhan to send troops at this time, wouldn't that push the frontline soldiers into the fire pit?
Xiao Mo is so powerful, how could Yelu Aluhan be Xiao Mo's opponent?
So Yelu Hongji asked Zhang Xiaojie: "How about delaying this matter for a few days?"

Zhang Xiaojie replied: "Your Majesty, of course I have no objection, but... I'm afraid the treasury will not be able to support it!"

"Then think of a way!" Yelu Hongji waved Zhang Xiaojie's hand, signaling Zhang Xiaojie to back down: "It doesn't matter whether it's borrowing from princes and nobles, or taking from merchants! As long as you persist for a while, An Chao will definitely come to ask for peace. At that time, do you still worry about not having food and salary?"

Hearing the words, Zhang Xiaojie had no choice but to back down, and it was this move again, the same as before, every time the Liao Kingdom fought against the An Dynasty, and had no military expenses, they borrowed it from wealthy businessmen and princes and nobles, and returned it after the An Dynasty asked for peace and compensation ...

After Zhang Xiaojie retired, Huo Zhu, the governor of the Northern Privy Council, stood up again and said to Yelu Hongji: "I will tell you about the emperor. I want to impeach the privy envoy and military advisor Zhang Yuanzhi for his inaction, which led to the defeat of Dingxiang, and made us face the situation in Daliao. An Chao's army is in trouble..."

Before impeaching Zhang Yuanzhi, Huo Zhu actually hesitated.

Although Huo Zhu is lustful, he is not stupid. He is also afraid that this time Zhang Xiaojie is planning to take revenge on himself because he raped (qiang) his concubine this time, so that he can offend Zhang Yuanzhi.

Zhang Yuanzhi is not easy to provoke, after all, he is a big celebrity next to Yelu Hongji!

But when he thought of Meier's face with pear blossoms and rain, Huo Zhu's heart wavered, and finally... finally desire defeated fear, Huo Zhu's heart changed, and he finally followed Zhang Xiaojie's words.

Afterwards, Huo Zhu stretched out Zouben's hands.

The eunuch took the memorial and handed it over to Yelu Hongji for interrogation.

Yelu Hongji frowned, and after reading the memorial, he asked Huo Zhu: "Huo Aiqing's memorial said that Zhang Aiqing was not good at using troops, so that the army defeated Dingxiang. In Huo Aiqing's opinion, how should I deal with it?"

Huo Zhu said: "It should be removed!"

Removal means expulsion from the court.

Yelu Hongji frowned, and asked: "Is it too serious, Zhang Aiqing did not make a mistake!"

Obviously, Yelu Hongji still valued Zhang Yuanzhi very much.

Huo Zhu stopped talking, and if he didn't talk, he just objected in a muffled voice!

So Yelu Hongji turned to Zhang Xiaojie and asked: "Zhang Aiqing, you are the chief minister, I want to hear your opinion!"

How cunning is Zhang Xiaojie?Seeing that Yelu Hongji asked about his own head, he played Tai Chi with Yelu Hongji: "Qizou the emperor, the minister is in charge of the center, and only asks about political affairs, not about military affairs! Mr. Huo's impeachment of Mr. Zhang is a matter within the Privy Council. , I don’t know how to deal with it!”

One sentence pushed it cleanly, but Yelu Hongji couldn't find the fault, so Yelu Hongji had to look elsewhere, and it happened to fall on Xiao Tianzuo's head, so he asked: "Guo Guo?" Uncle, you are the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War and the Privy Council are one family, so tell me!"

Xiao Tianzuo nodded and replied: "Returning to the emperor, I believe that we, Daliao and Anchao, have fought against An Dynasty for hundreds of years without defeat. This time, it is obvious that someone made a mistake, which led to the defeat of the three armies!"

Although he didn't say it clearly, Xiao Tianzuo's meaning was very simple and clear, that is, to support Huo Zhu!

Huo Zhu, who was standing on the side, was relieved when he heard Xiao Tianzuo's words. After hearing Zhang Xiaojie's words just now, he really thought that Zhang Xiaojie deliberately framed him!Otherwise, he, Zhang Xiaojie, and Zhang Yuanzhi have always been at odds with each other, why didn't Zhang Xiaojie join him in impeaching Zhang Yuanzhi at this time?
If one more person speaks, it will have more weight, right?What's more, Zhang Xiaojie still participates in political affairs, the emperor should think carefully about what he said.

But after Xiao Tianzuo finished speaking, Huo Zhu understood that Zhang Xiaojie was deliberately staying out of the matter, and said that he didn't understand military affairs, so it was inconvenient to give any advice, and asked the emperor to find someone who understood military affairs to ask.

Where is there anyone in the DPRK who understands military affairs?Those generals have all gone some time ago, and some veterans are now enjoying their old age in Zhongjing.

Zhang Xiaojie is sure that Yelu Hongji can only ask Xiao Tianzuo for questioning, and Xiao Tianzuo is from Zhang Xiaojie's side!
"Zhang Yuanzhi, you can't blame me..." Huo Zhu began to talk to himself in his heart: "If you want to blame, blame yourself for being too self-righteous on weekdays, and don't think of me and Xiao Tianzuo in your eyes!"

Feeling complacent, Huo Zhu watched Yelu Hongji's reaction again.

Hearing Xiao Tianzuo's words, Yelu Hongji frowned.

what to do?Zhang Xiaojie blocked his way to ask civil officials with one sentence, so he could only ask Xiao Tianzuo, but Xiao Tianzuo had the same thought in his heart as Huo Zhu.

Could it be... I really removed Zhang Yuanzhi just like that?

no!Yelu Hongji shook his head self-consciously, Zhang Yuanzhi was the champion of the new division, and Yelu Hongji admired Zhang Yuanzhi's talent very much, so Yelu Hongji still wanted to hug him.

So Yelu Hongji said: "Let's forget it! Zhang Aiqing didn't make a big mistake, and she was worried about the country. I can't chill the hearts of my subjects, so I let Zhang Aiqing go back to Xijing to recuperate! It's just...you Aiqing think, After Zhang Aiqing returns to Beijing, who can be qualified for the position of military adviser?"

This……

After hearing Yelu Hongji's words, the ministers started discussing with each other, and there was some commotion in the hall for a while, and after a while, Yelu Hongji asked loudly: "My dear ministers, is there anyone to choose?"

"Back to the emperor!" Zhang Xiaojie stood up, and then said to Yelu Hongji: "I think this person must be Mr. Huo..."

"Me?" Huo Zhu was surprised when he heard the words, he didn't know why Zhang Xiaojie recommended him, so the situation fell apart for a while.

"Master Huo..." Seeing Huo Zhu lose his composure, Xiao Tianzuo hurriedly reminded him: "Why should I lose my composure? This military and political power should belong to Mr. Huo..."
