Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 65 Travel and Court Disputes

"Second Uncle, I still want to eat candied fruit!" Little Butterfly said to Liu De, pointing to a stall selling candied fruit not far away. For the first time, I accompanied Xiao Die to take a good look around the county under my jurisdiction——Dongyu.

Although Dong Yu was on the frontier, Liu Shang was a just man, and he did not collude with gentry tyrants to oppress the people, and severely cracked down on gentry tyrants who annexed the land.When Liu Shang and Chen Shuo first arrived in Dongyu, they massacred several large households colluding with foreign races. They took a small town to suppress the blood, and failed to dispel the smell of blood for a month. Since then, Liu Shang has completely controlled Dongyu City, developed agriculture, Encouraging business, promoting fertility, reducing taxes, discovering children from poor families, and training soldiers. Every time Liu De learns about his grandfather's family history in detail, he always feels that his grandfather is the real time traveler. The experience is so fantastic and incredible.

During my grandfather's rule of Dongyu City for more than [-] years, Donghu had never been allowed to enter Dongyu City. This was unimaginable in the past. At that time, Dongyu City was like a sieve. The Donghu army came and left whenever they wanted. It's not so convenient in my own back garden. After all, my back garden is my own thing, and it's not very good if it breaks.There are not so many requirements for other people's back gardens, and they can do whatever harm they want.

There are more and more people in Dongyu City. The nearby land was annexed, and the people who couldn't survive all dragged their children and daughters to Dongyu City to join their grandfather. Dongyu City is prosperous today, with a population of 16. Almost every family has set up a longevity card for grandfather. If grandfather did not deliberately stop it, the people of Dongyu would build a shrine for grandfather, which shows the great prestige of grandfather.

Today Liu De is wearing a white scholar's shirt, a scholar's crown on his head, a folding fan in his hand, and a sword hanging on his waist. He is a handsome young man.Xu Hu and Dian Wei led a dozen guards and fell far behind Liu De. Although they were in their own territory, they still didn't dare to be careless. They looked around vigilantly and took precautions.

In a side hall of the palace, the Emperor Da Zhou was lying on the couch listening to the ministers' reports. His face was paler than a month ago, his eyes were thick and his vision was blurry. All the ministers who knew the matter knew that although the emperor fainted several times because of King Kang's death. , but in the final analysis, it is because of excessive indulgence, overwhelmed body, and frequent consumption of secret medicines, which caused today's situation.

The emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and his life is not long. The emperor has only two princes, one is three years old and the other is two years old. Set up a prime minister, hold the power, and be a powerful minister under one person and above tens of thousands, just like Su Jing who has gone through the Great Three Dynasties-"The emperor is eight years old, and political affairs are determined by respect." (Reference person: Huo Guang)
The Emperor of Great Zhou also knew that his health was getting worse and worse. Even the favored concubine was unable to make his little brother stand up a few days ago. It can be said that he lost all face. I am afraid that his life span is only two or three years, so he should also consider the issue of successors. Well, the two princes are both young. The eldest son and mother, the Cao family, are the daughters of Sikong Cao Sui. Sikong Cao Sui is short-sighted and arrogant. Just as soon as Cao Sui said a word, the world might be the world with the surname Cao.Instead of the Ji surname the world.

The second son's mother, He Shi, is the younger sister of He Sui, the general of the upper army. The Emperor of Zhou preferred to make the second son the crown prince, but although He Sui's official position is third rank, it is still too low. , So the Emperor of Zhou sent He Sui to conquer Ouyang Yi, who beheaded King Kang and made himself King of Jin.Only in this way can I raise He Sui's official position in a legitimate way.

The Emperor of the Great Zhou originally intended for Situ Chen He to be the auxiliary minister. Chen He was loyal, capable, and highly respected. Outstanding, but ambitious and selfish.If Chen He, Li Zhen, and He Sui were allowed to serve as auxiliary ministers, Li Zhen and He Sui would constrain each other, and Chen He would mediate in the middle, so the Ji family would have no worries.

"Your Majesty, Zhennan General Huangfuyi has conquered several counties, and the bandit Dong Liang has been driven to a desperate situation. General Huangfu will return in triumph in a short time!" Sima Lizhen reported to the Emperor of Zhou.

"Okay, okay!" Hearing this good news, Emperor Da Zhou's face turned rosy in an instant, he struggled to sit up from the bed, and said: "Huangfu Yi really lived up to the expectations of the widow, he should be rewarded, he should be rewarded! What else is there?" ?”

"Lingzhou Mu personally led the troops to put down the rebellion, but was shot by the arrows. Now he is dead or alive. The thieves are rampant, and they have engulfed tens of thousands of refugees. They raised the flag to rebel in the local area, and gathered a crowd!" Li Zhen was reporting to the emperor, but this time He was cautious, not daring to raise his head, for fear that the emperor would burst into a monstrous rage.

Sure enough, the slightly rosy face of the Emperor Da Zhou turned livid in an instant, and he cursed: "Waste, waste, all waste! Even a small tenant farmer can't calm down, what use are you for!"

After a while, the Emperor Da Zhou was exhausted from the insults, and he lay down on the couch again, and said, "Can any of you choose to go and put down the rebellion?"

Hearing this, Cao Sui hurried forward: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Dongyu County, Yangwei General Liu De strategizes, employs troops like a god, and his generals are good at fighting. How about sending Liu De to Lingzhou to quell the chaos!" Liu De never forgot, and he wanted to kill Liu De. If Liu De left Dongyu, he would be at the mercy of others.

It's a pity that Cao Sui took care of killing Liu De, but forgot that he kept mentioning Liu De in front of the Emperor of the Great Zhou. Instead, the Emperor of the Great Zhou remembered Liu De's name in his heart, knowing that Liu De had defeated Donghu's [-] army, The soldiers under his command are heroic and worthy of reuse.

"absurd!"

Chen He dragged his sick body to come to discuss the matter, and said to the Emperor Da Zhou who was on the couch: "Your Majesty, Yanzhou is far away from Lingzhou, and the army has to march for several months to reach it. Moreover, Liu De will be stationed in Dongyu City to prevent Donghu from invading. On the one hand, Liu De's officers and men are all from the north, and it is difficult for them to adapt to the climate of Lingzhou, which will reduce their combat power, which may lead to a major event of counterinsurgency! Therefore, Cao Sikong's suggestion is absolutely unfeasible!"

"That's it"

Emperor Da Zhou kept thinking.

"Your Majesty, there are still tens of thousands of troops in Lingzhou. Liu De can go to Lingzhou by himself. I think with Liu De's ability, he will be able to put down the rebellion quickly!" Cao Sui will not give up lightly. Another plan!
"Nonsense, unrealistic, Your Majesty, soldiers don't know generals, generals don't know how to fight, Cao Sui has resentment in his heart, and it will cause Liu De to die. I hope His Majesty will investigate carefully!" Chen He angrily scolded Cao Sui , earnestly said to the Great Zhou Emperor.

"Chen Situ, why do you always favor Liu De?" Cao Sui pressed on every step of the way.

"Cao Sikong, what is your intention to kill Liu De!" Chen He refused to budge!
"Chen Situ, it is the duty of a courtier to be loyal to the royal family, how can there be any objection!" Cao Sui went further.

"Cao Sikong, it's so unrealistic, but if you can't put down the rebellion, what kind of situation will Lingzhou be in? Why don't you wait until then and Cao Sikong lead troops to put down the rebellion?" Chen He argued hard.

"Chen Situ"

"Cao Sikong"

The emperor of the Great Zhou who was on the side had long been dizzy, and Li Zhen was thinking secretly in his heart that Liu Daben was a tenant farmer with meager skills. If it weren't for the unlucky Lingzhou Mu, who was shot in the face, the rebellion might have been put down long ago. Thanks to this credit It's right in front of you, why don't you take it, when will you wait!
"Your Majesty, I have a message!"

Li Zhen stood up and bowed his hands.
