Great Han Empire

Chapter 164

Zuo Feng glanced at them contemptuously, and continued: "This time the emperor listened to the opinions of Taiwei Zhang Yanzhang, Sikong Xu Xiangxu, Situ Cui Lie and other important officials of the court, and ordered Shangshufang to draw up this road. The imperial decree, to put it bluntly, is to put you to death, but the emperor doesn't know. Your Majesty was coaxed by them, thinking that you are the mainstay of the Han Dynasty, an omnipotent strange person, this trivial matter is not a matter of course, it can be solved easily You don't know, this is pushing you to a dead end."

Yushi asked tremblingly, "Lord Zuo, how much will we spend to resolve this matter?"

"5000 million yuan." Zuo Feng said expressionlessly, "Li Zhonglang, you have to give me at least 5000 million yuan, so that I can guarantee that you can solve all these messy things of yours and that you can be a real Zhonglang general." , the youngest Zhonglang General in the history of the Han Dynasty."

Li Hong and his subordinates looked at each other and gasped.Zuo Feng is really bold, one mouth is 5000 million yuan, the lion opened his mouth wide.

Zuo Feng glanced at them, and said emotionally: "Everyone in the world says that the current government is controlled by us harem ministers, mutilating loyal and good people, exploiting the people, causing chaos in the world, so that we are scolded every day, every day, everyone People scold you, but have you ever thought, what are those clan bureaucrats, those elite families, what are they doing at this time? Have they stopped interfering in government affairs? Ever since the ant thief rebelled, the emperor has checked the will of heaven, sympathized with the people, and amnesty the party People, after the re-appointment of scholars, the ministers above the court have become more and more powerful, and the power of the gentry in various states and counties has been revived again. The power of the gentry to influence the government has become greater and greater. What happened to Li Zhonglang A clear proof of the rising power of the gentry."

"Everyone in the world calls us bad, but how many good people are there among them? They are not greedy for money? They are not greedy for power? They don't build luxury houses? They don't buy land? It seems that all the bad things in the world are done by us." Zuo Feng laughed and said, "It's ridiculous that people in the world are confused. If we die, can they fix the world? Look at the hundreds of years, is it because the powerful ministers manipulated the emperor more often or we controlled the government more often? People in the world You were deceived by such hypocritical, vicious and vicious scholars. You, Li Zhonglang, led the barbarians from northern Xinjiang all the way to the south to suppress the enemy. Big man, haha..." Zuo Feng laughed loudly.

Li Hong, Xian Yufu, Yushi, Tian Zhong, Zhao Yun, and a group of subordinates were all stunned, unable to believe their ears.Those who wanted to kill him turned out to be those ministers who were loyal to the Han Dynasty.What did I do wrong, they actually want to use such black hands to destroy themselves.

"What did they say about me?" Li Hong asked.

"Too much. The two things I just said are not quite serious. Some people say that you and the ant thief are colluding with each other, and some people say that you are a spy of the Xianbei people in front of the emperor." Zuo Feng said with a smile.

"What did you say?" Li Hong stood up in surprise.

Zuo Feng laughed triumphantly, "Why, let me say it right, are you really a spy of the Xianbei people?"

Li Hong couldn't bear it anymore, extreme disappointment, anger, pain and all kinds of complicated emotions suddenly exploded in the depths of his heart with Zuo Feng's sinister smile, and exploded like a burst, he roared wildly, Kicking away the table in front of him, he waved his hands excitedly, opened his mouth and shouted wildly: "Who said that..."

He rushed to Zuo Feng's table in a few steps, and with a sweep of his big hand, he had already thrown the table in front of Zuo Feng out of the hall together with the wine and meat on the table, and then he grabbed Zuo Feng's lapel and threw the pale-faced Zuo Feng He picked it up high.Li Hong yelled frantically at Zuo Feng's distorted face due to extreme fear: "Tell me, who said it, who..."

Zuo Feng left his feet off the ground, shaking weakly in the air, his hands tried to tear at Li Hong's arm, twisting his body desperately, the fear in his heart reached the point where it couldn't be more.He stared at the murderous Li Hong in horror, and shouted hysterically: "Help, help..."

Xian Yufu, Yushi, Tian Zhong, and Zhao Yun were all at a loss when they saw the furious Li Hong suddenly lose their minds, not knowing what to do.Xian Yufu rushed up and pulled it twice before being kicked flying by Li Hong.

"Who said that..." Li Hong shook Zuo Feng vigorously, roaring loudly.

"I...I..." Zuo Feng opened his mouth and stammered a few words before Li Hong, who was in a rage, smashed him hard with one arm to the opposite wall. "Boom..." With a sound, Zuo Feng slammed into the wall heavily, then fell to the ground in the air, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"So it's you..." Li Hong yelled wildly, leaped forward, grabbed Zuo Feng's bun, and smashed it down with a big fist.Zuo Feng immediately howled like a pig being killed.

"I'm a spy, how dare you say I'm a spy, I'll kill you, eunuch, I'll kill you..." Li Hong punched like the wind, and he punched more than a dozen times in an instant, Zuo Feng's fair face was instantly bruised and purple. , and several teeth were knocked out.

Yushi, Zhao Yun one left and one right, forced Li Hong to stand up.If the beating continued, the eunuch would be killed.

Xian Yufu was helped up by Yan Wuwei outside the hall.Li Hong's kick was really heavy, Xian Yufu grinned and couldn't stand up for a long time.

"Immediately order Xiaolan to seal the gate of the city." Xian Yufu said, "Scrutinize the entourage and bodyguards of the envoy closely, and don't miss any of them."

"My lord, do you want to..." Yan Wuwei made a silent gesture.

"Not now. Wait for the people to calm down and see what he says."

Tian Zhong couldn't close his mouth happily.He helped Zuo Feng up in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Our lord is out of his mind, you must know this. But the envoy is too unlucky today, just in time for our lord to have something wrong, haha..."

Zuo Feng moaned loudly as he was dying, his head soon swelled like a pig's head.He looked at Li Hong viciously, and said in a trembling voice, "I want you to die without a place to bury you."

Li Hong stood in the distance, roaring angrily.Zhao Yun tightly hugged his waist, and Yushi tugged at his clothes, for fear that he would rush over again.

"Get out, get out now."

Tian Zhong laughed, grabbed Zuo Feng by the collar, and dragged him out of the hall.

Zuo Feng was in pain all over his body as if he had lost his frame, allowing Tian Zhong to take him out.Zuo Feng gritted his teeth and pointed at Li Hong and shouted, "You will die a miserable death."

Li Hong even yelled at him, "If you can get out of Zhao country, I won't be called a leopard."

Zuo Feng escaped from the city in a panic with a group of entourage and guards.Xiaolan, who had been waiting outside the city for a long time, quietly scattered around Zuofeng's convoy with a thousand Qingqi, closely monitoring the movement.

Not long after, Yan Wuwei, Hu Ding, and Qi Shen rushed out of the city with two hundred black panthers.

======================
Zhang He and Gao Lan rushed into the gate with a few followers.

Wen Chou came up to meet him, and laughed loudly: "Junyi, Zhengqing, you two came so fast."

Zhang He got off his horse and asked strangely: "Zijun, aren't you in Xiangguo City? Why did you go north with your lord? Your lord agreed?"

Wen Chou ignored him, ran to Gao Lan and asked with concern: "Zhengqing, is your body healed? There is no problem with riding a horse?"

Gao Lan bowed to him gratefully and said, "Thank you Zijun for caring, everything will be fine."

Both of them used to be Jizhou Mu Guodian's subordinates. After the main force of the Jizhou Army was wiped out by the Yellow Turban Army, there were only these two officers and dozens of soldiers left.Although they didn't know each other in the past, because of this special experience, the friendship between the two is very deep. It is a kind of comrade-in-arms that depends on life and death.

Zhang He patted Wen Chou and said, "Zijun, what do I ask you? Does Hutou think that you are in the way?"

"What's your name?" Wen Chou laughed, "Without us, how could the lord reward him with two little wives at once? Let him go dreaming."

Gao Lan heard Zhang Yun talk about Yan Liang, so he also laughed and joked: "The words you two said that day were unbearable, brother Zishan and his two little wives must have disagreements, so Zijun must be in Xiangguo Can't wait any longer."

"How is it possible? The two little ladies of Hutou saw me very politely, one in front and one in the back, uncle long, uncle short..." Wen Chou shook his head, and said happily, "I have every day in Xiangguo. Good food and wine."

Zhang He and Gao Lan looked at Wen Chou enviously.

"Then why are you willing to leave?" Zhang He asked.

"My lord is leading the troops to attack Zhending City. I told my lord that I would also participate, to avenge the tens of thousands of brothers who died in Guhongling." Wen Chou explained, "That's why I came."

"Junyi, Zhengqing..." Li Hong stepped out of the big tent and shouted, "Has Zhengqing's injury healed yet?"

The two hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said in unison: "See Lord Zhonglang..."

"My lord, I can ride a horse now."

"Zhengqing's injury has basically healed, just pay attention to rest for a while." Zhang He said with a smile.

Li Hong nodded and said with a smile: "That's good. If Zhengqing's injury can't heal, he can't go to Xiliang with us."

"Xiliang..." Zhang Yun and Gao Lan exclaimed, "My lord, you said we are going to Xiliang..."

"Yes..." Li Hong patted Gao Lan affectionately and said, "Riding less recently, you know? In April, we will go to the Xiliang battlefield, and we will have to walk thousands of miles, so you should pay attention to rest now."

"Yes." Gao Lan said excitedly, "I swear to the death to follow my lord to fight in the world."

"I thought that after the Jizhou war ended, everyone and I would part ways, but I didn't expect..." Li Hong smiled wryly, "Follow me, you will suffer a lot, you will suffer a lot..."

"It's our honor to serve under your lord's command. We don't have to be afraid of suffering. Isn't it just going to Xiliang, isn't it an expedition to the Western Regions?" Zhang He laughed.

"A man, a man, you should aim high and be determined to be the country. This little hardship is nothing." Gao Lan also said loudly.

"The imperial court's recruitment of Your Excellency to Xiliang is an excellent opportunity for our generation to make contributions and become famous all over the world. How can Your Excellency endure hardships? No one else can find such an opportunity." Wen Chou shouted impassionedly.

Li Hong pointed at him and said with a smile: "Look at you, a handsome and elegant person, why you are full of murderous looks, maybe you have been with Hutou for a long time, and you have been influenced by him."

"My lord's murderous aura is better than that of a tiger's head. I guess I was influenced by you." Wen Chou hurriedly replied.

Several people laughed.
