Han Xu, with a kind face and kind eyes, stood in the hall with his hands folded.
Compared to Han Yin, he has always shown himself to be tolerant and benevolent.
"Du Ruhui was released?" he asked.
The palace had just been cleaned, but the strong smell of blood still lingered.
Wugong Hou, who was wearing armor, stood aside: "I only relaxed a little, and then he fled back. This person is really a close friend of my Dayong, and this time I will undoubtedly let the tiger return to the mountain."
As the youngest marquis of the Yong Kingdom, Wugong Marquis Xue Mingyi was a staunch progressive and was very dissatisfied with the old Yong Kingdom's complacency. He hit it off with Han Xu in terms of political views and had already secretly pledged allegiance to him.
"How can I not know how terrible Du Ruhui is? But things have priorities. Before the crisis of life and death, we have to put a thorn in the flesh first. Although the reform of the country this time has reached a time when changes must be made, there are some tricks after all.
It's dangerous. It's really hard to live alone... It's not appropriate to anger Zhuang Gaoxian at this time."
Han Xu looked outside the palace. The light was only one step away from him, and he already had the supreme power in this land.
"Weininghou, what's your attitude towards them?" he asked.
Among the four Yonghou who participated in besieging Du Ruhui, Weininghou was the most senior and could well represent the attitude of some meritorious nobles.
"Marquis Weining didn't say anything," Xue Mingyi said.
This is all about waiting and watching.
"That's good." Han Xu nodded: "We, the monarch and his ministers, need to make some achievements."
He took a step forward and reached out to hold the skylight outside the palace: "Look at this vast world, we are finally here to ride."
He clenched his fist and closed it, as if he had grasped the entire country: "Xue Qing, are you confident?"
"Many people are waiting to see your joke, Your Majesty." Xue Mingyi bowed and said.
Han Xu strode forward: "In this world, there are not many blind people, but there are also many blind people!"
A bright smile appeared on Xue Mingyi's face, which was still full of energy: "I am willing to use the sword in your Majesty's hand to kill powerful enemies, defeat powerful armies, and clear the world!"
On the day Han Yin died, it had been more than a hundred years since Han Xu ascended the throne.
During this long period of time, although he was the leader of the country, all military and state affairs depended on Han Yin.
He has been the leader of the Yong Kingdom for more than a hundred years, and has also been a puppet for more than a hundred years.
For anyone who is still ambitious, this is the most embarrassing torture. It is obvious that he is in a great position, and the power is at hand, but he cannot touch it at all!
His feelings for Han Yin had long since turned from awe to resentment.
Even so, he still performed flawlessly as a respectful and filial son for more than a hundred years.
Even though Han Yinxiong had always refused to trust others, he had never doubted him.
Who would have thought?
That good emperor who was kind to his subordinates and filial to his superiors, who had worked conscientiously for more than a hundred years.
In order to fully grasp the power and become a true monarch, he even led the wolf into the house and dismembered the Yong Kingdom with his own hands!
But precisely because it seemed impossible, he was able to succeed!
…
…
Suolong Pass, above Guancheng.
Zhuang Gaoxian sat without dignity, his legs hanging outside Guancheng, overlooking the officers and soldiers of Zhuang's army coming in and out.
Du Ruhui, who had broken an arm, stood very upright beside him.
Zhuang Guo is not rich, but the elixir for repairing broken limbs can still be found. But if you want to return to your former peak, it cannot be done in three or two days.
In this national war, the real strategic goals of their monarchs and ministers have been completed, and it can be said to be a complete victory. From today on, the territory of Zhuang State has crossed the Qichang Mountains, and with Suolong Pass as its stronghold, the tiger is eyeing Yongjing
hinterland.
Even if he stops making progress from now on, he is still the undisputed leader of the Zhuang Kingdom's resurgence. And he, Zhuang Gaoxian, is still young and powerful, and he still has a lot to do in the future.
There is no reason for him to be in a bad mood!
Sitting here with the dignity of a king is naturally to appease the military and boost morale.
"What about the brave men who came to the city first?" Zhuang Gaoxian turned his head and asked, "I asked you to come and meet, so why haven't you come yet?"
The attendants looked at each other, and then one of the attendants stepped forward bravely: "Your Majesty, that Du Yehu is really hateful. You can say that the general is unconscious, and he has no face to accept the punishment. He is currently serving General Duan and refuses to move...
... He is so bold and dares to resist the emperor's order. Will my subordinates want to take him here?"
"It's just an invitation, how can it be considered a big deal? And it's not without reason." Zhuang Gaoxian smiled and waved his hand: "Don't criticize the strong man harshly."
Turning around, he met Du Ruhui's eyes. He paused and said, "I will go see General Duan in person later."
After the war, he did not go to see Duan Li who was injured and fainted. It was not because of negligence. It was because...he did not let Duan Li and He Batao know about this cooperation with Yongjun Han Xu. Because if they were perfunctory,
There is absolutely no way to deceive Han Yin.
So they are really fighting to the death with Li Ying, really fighting for the country, and they don't know the meaning of their battle at all. It is not to defeat the opponent, or even to hold the opponent back, but to die in the hands of the opponent and become an additional opponent.
A bargaining chip of trust.
He Ba Dao died and Duan Li was crippled. Even though it was Zhuang Gaoxian's decision, he still avoided facing it subconsciously.
And Du Ruhui's eyes were telling him not to do this.
"Report!"
Suddenly, a man flew over quickly and prostrated himself in front of Suolong Pass: "Your Majesty, Lan'an Mansion is reporting urgently!"
Zhuang Gao
An uneasy feeling that things are out of control.
"Say it!" Du Ruhui said.
The soldier said in a loud voice: "Zhu Weiwo from the National Academy suddenly appeared on the battlefield of Lan'an Prefecture. When Qinghe Shuijun and Bei Gongyu were confronting each other, he penetrated deeply with his single spear and destroyed ten cities in a row!"
This is certainly good news.
If the navy of Zhuang Kingdom can take advantage of the situation and occupy Lan'an Prefecture, they will never retreat. By then, with Lan'an Prefecture and Suolong Pass in hand, Yong State will be sandwiched between Lan'an and Fuming Prefecture of Yiyang.
Half of the enclave can be taken over by Zhuang Guo at any time.
Zhuang Gaoxian and Du Ruhui looked at each other, couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh, deliberately complaining: "Zhu Qing is really impatient, why can't he sit still in Xin'an City? Turn around and throw him into the Bai Yu Army, so as not to cause trouble!
"
It's called complaint, but it's actually praise.
Moreover, the commander of the Baiyu Army, He Ba Dao, had just died in battle, and Zhu Wei had gone. What position should I have?
Zhuang Gaoxian's satisfaction and expectations for Zhu Weiwo can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
"Report!"
At this moment, another person flew over: "Urgent report from Lan'an Mansion!"
It's really surprising that the two messenger soldiers are on the front and back.
Zhuang Gaoxian said with great interest: "Zhu Wei, what happened to me again?"
"Zhu Weiwo, he...he..." the soldier stammered: "He is treason!"
"Speak clearly." Du Ruhui said in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
The soldier who sent the message said, "I wish Wei had defeated ten cities in a row and collapsed due to exhaustion. Fortunately, the soldiers saved him with their lives. He recovered a little, picked up his gun and left on the way back to the camp. The brothers stopped him.
, he only said...said..."
"What did he say?" Zhuang Gaoxian asked.
"He said that if the king regards his ministers as his hands and feet, then his ministers will regard him as his heart and soul; if his ministers regard his ministers as dogs and horses, then his ministers will regard him as a fellow countryman; if his ministers regard his ministers as earth and mustard, then his ministers will regard him as a bandit!"
The messenger soldier said tremblingly
"Then I wish you the best, I will never forget the old things in Fenglin."
"He sacrificed his life to conquer the city and expand the territory for the country. Fortunately, he survived, and he has fully repaid his cultivation."
