Chapter 65: Have I said to lend our hand?

"Is there anything else? If you don't have anything else to do, let's get over it. I'm tired."

Liu Hong waved his sleeves and said.

Liu Hong glanced at the ministers, but no one stood up to speak, so he waved his sleeves and stood up and said, "Let's retreat from the court."

After saying that, he went to the harem.

When Zhang Rang saw that Liu Hong had stood up and left, he immediately shouted in his unique rooster voice: "Quit the court!"

After the ministers bowed to each other one after another, they went back.

And a young man in court attire quickly caught up with an old court official in front of him.

The old minister has a ruddy complexion and walks very steadily. From a distance, you can tell that he is a person who has been practicing martial arts all year round.

And this person was none other than Lu Zhi, who had some friendship with Sun Xiong. He was now in front, while a young man behind him quickly caught up with Lu Zhi in front.

The man shouted loudly: "Lord Lu Zhi, please stay!"

Lu Zhi heard someone shouting, and when he looked back, he saw a young man with a face as dust as dust and a short stature chasing after him.

However, the cunning in the man's eyes was hidden deep in his heart, preventing others from seeing it.

"Master Lu, please stay! Cao Cao and Cao Mengde have something to discuss with Master Lu."

Lu Zhi naturally recognized this Cao Cao. His father, Cao Song, had only announced his resignation from the court the year before to provide for his retirement.

Lu Zhi had also heard a lot about Cao Cao's deeds, and his impression of Cao Cao was quite good. Today, Cao Cao stopped him.

Lu Zhi stood on the steps and waited. After Cao Cao followed him, he laughed and said, "Haha, Master Lu Zhi heard that you have a relationship with General Sun Xiong who is guarding the border. I wonder if that's true or not?"

Lu Zhi Fusu looked at Cao Cao and didn't understand what Cao Cao meant, so he said: "My relationship with Bo Yue is not a secret. I wonder what Meng De means by this?"

"Haha, it's okay, Sir Lu Zhi, Cao Cao has finished asking questions and will leave first."

Cao Cao nodded playfully, and after finishing speaking, he walked down the steps and walked out.

"Hey?" Lu Zhi didn't understand what Cao Cao meant, but he had already gone far.

Lu Zhi thought that it would be better to wait until the next time he visited Cao Cao's home.

Just as the meeting in Luoyang dispersed, Zhang Rang also obeyed Liu Hong's instructions and drove his carriage slowly towards Yanmen County.

When Zhang Rang arrived in Bingzhou, Sun Xiong learned that the emperor had sent an angel to congratulate him on his victory.

Today, Sun Xiong returned to the prefect's mansion, and under him were Xi Zhong and Xie An.

Due to the marriage between Sun Xiong and the Xie family, Xie Yi naturally had to express his views, because from now on the Sun family and the Xie family would be one family. In response, Xie Yi asked Xie An to return to Sun Xiong to organize the government affairs of the prefecture.

In this regard, Xie An was extremely helpless. At the request of Xie Yi, his father, Xie An began to take charge of the internal affairs of the prefecture.

Now that he knew that the angels from the imperial court were coming, Sun Xiong summoned Xie An and Xi Zhong to come together for discussion.

Sun Xiong sat on the main seat and was very worried about the angel who came this time.

This time, the person who came this time turned out to be Zhang Rang, a celebrity around the emperor. Who didn't know how powerful Zhang Rang was now, and this visit must not be just for congratulations.

Sun Xiong didn't understand what he meant, so he asked Xie An and Xi Zhong to come to the prefect's mansion to discuss it together.

After the two of them heard this, Xi Zhong spoke first and said: "General, I think the angel from the imperial court coming here this time must be related to Liu Yuan who you escorted there a few days ago."

"Actually, General, when you captured Liu Yuan, I advised you not to send Liu Yuan to Luoyang for the time being. Now that the angel is here, it must be related to your taking in the prisoners, and he is here to investigate the situation."

Sun Xiong did not understand the seriousness of this matter, but Sun Xiong was loyal to the Han Dynasty and would never show any resistance.

As for taking in the Xiongnu prisoners, the main thing is to follow the suggestions of Sun Yun and Xie An and use the Xiongnu to open up wasteland.

Nowadays, there are so many wastelands that Sun Xiong immediately agreed to the proposal.

"Then when the angel arrives, I will make it clear to the angel, so that the emperor will not blame me."

Sun Xiong thought for a moment, and could only think that now he could only answer truthfully and let the angel know his intention to take in the Hun prisoners.

To dispel the emperor's suspicion, Xi Zhong shook his head and said: "I think the angel coming this time must be to challenge you, General Diaoman. Now you have defeated the Huns twice in a row. You have a great reputation, great influence and great achievements.

, naturally the emperor wants to suppress you, general."

Sun Xiong was puzzled by Xi Zhong's words, and said in a deep voice: "I am loyal to the emperor and the great Han, and I have no thoughts of rebellion. I am now guarding the northern border to prevent foreigners from entering our Bingzhou, and I have even been

I defeated the Xiongnu twice and killed nearly 100,000 enemies. Isn’t this enough to express my loyalty to the emperor and the great Han?"

Xie An said at this time: "Actually, what the military advisor said is not unreasonable. General, you took him in privately."

Prisoners, even if you kill a hundred thousand enemies, kill a million enemies, and keep the aliens out of the grassland, you can't stop the emperor's suspicion. The emperor actually became suspicious. General, no matter how you express your loyalty, you take in the prisoners.

It still can’t be explained.”

"I took in the prisoners, naturally, to improve the bitter cold in Bingzhou. Could it be that the emperor still can't understand it?" Sun Xiong said sadly, but he was inevitably a little disappointed with the emperor in his heart.

"Actually, there are ways to avoid making things difficult and dispel the emperor's suspicions."

Xie An smiled confidently.

"Oh? I wonder what you have to say, Mr. Xie?"

Xi Zhong also became interested. These days, Xie An began to deal with the government affairs in the prefecture.

That's called fast. In just one day, he cleared up more than half of the government affairs that he had been dragging on.

This made the opera lovers convinced that Xie An was not only superior in resourcefulness, but his handling of government affairs should not be underestimated.

Now, Xie An actually said that he could solve the emperor's concerns, which made Xi Zhong curious. In fact, Xi Zhong himself had also thought about how to deal with it.

But no matter how you think about it, you can't successfully solve the concerns that today's emperor has.

Xie An actually said it today, so the drama fans naturally had to listen carefully.

"Haha, you all want to know, so I won't hold back."

Xie An touched his chin and said with a chuckle.

"Actually, it is very easy to dispel the Emperor's concerns. All we need to do is simply kill these prisoners in front of the angels."

Xie An's words were actually something Xi Zhong had thought about, but Sun Xiong still had to use these prisoners to carry out his duties. If he killed the prisoners without any reason, it would not only affect the general's reputation.

Counter-effects will also be mentioned for the remaining prisoners.

"Mr. Xie's words are indeed very good to dispel the emperor's concerns, but if you do this, it will be very bad for the reputation of our Yanmen County and the reputation of the general. And now we also need these prisoners to improve the situation of Bingzhou for us."

Life, this.”

Xi Zhong said that this method was actually not feasible, while Sun Xiong was listening to the conversation between the two.

Stroking the beard on his chin, he nodded and said, "The military advisor is right."

"Haha, general, don't worry, military advisor, but did I say I would lend it to you?"
