Although Li Chunguang was furious and murderous.
But in fact, why is Wu Nian not qualified to be sent to the imperial court? The general of the border area has two cities and twelve cities, with one hundred thousand elite soldiers.
He had just defeated Xiong Wuwo, which resulted in the loss of 20 to 30% of Chu's elite troops in Liaodong. Just like the Jiedushi in the late Tang Dynasty.
"Hey." Chief Assistant Wang Guifang was calmer and calmer. She sighed and asked the eunuch: "What did your Majesty say?"
"Your Majesty has decided to summon hundreds of officials to the palace to receive Wu Nian's envoy." The eunuch bent down and replied.
"It's okay to just send a minister or a minister to see him. Why do we need to summon all the civil and military officials in the main hall to receive this envoy?"
The four cabinet ministers were distracted for a moment, and after looking at each other, they were all confused.
But since it was the emperor's wish, there was nothing they could do. For example, Li Chunguang could only curse a few words in his heart.
The four of them got up from the couch, straightened their clothes, straightened their official hats, and waited to go to the palace. After a long time, another eunuch came to summon them, and the four of them left Wenyuan Pavilion and came outside the main hall.
Hundreds of officials gathered outside the palace, whispering to each other, and the discussion became loud.
From time to time, the four people could hear the sounds of "Wu Nian" and "Wu Nian" in their ears. For a time, the name of Liaodong Tiger was like magic, firmly attracting officials.
When all the officials saw the four people coming out, they immediately rushed towards them. You said "Pavilion Elder" and he said "Chief Assistant". Officials from their respective factions rallied around their respective cabinet ministers, either to inquire about information or to get some information first, so that they could advance and retreat in an orderly manner in the main hall later.
"Go to the palace!"
Until a eunuch came out of the hall, holding a fly whisk and making a sharp sound. The four cabinet ministers, along with the officials, entered the main hall in a fixed order.
"Long live your Majesty, long live, long live your Majesty."
All the officials bowed and saluted Emperor Daojun who was sitting on the dragon chair.
"Everyone is safe," Emperor Daojun said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Baiguan thanked him and stood upright.
Emperor Daojun wears a bright yellow dragon robe and a pure gold crown on his head. His complexion is snow-white, his body is slightly plump, his beard hangs down to his chest, and he is graceful and luxurious.
"Xuan. The envoy of General Fu Han." Emperor Daojun turned to the eunuch standing next to him and said.
"Xuan. The envoy of General Fu Han." The eunuch immediately moistened his throat, and his sharp voice spread throughout the hall.
Not long after, Wang Youxiao walked in under the watchful eyes of two eunuchs. He was wearing a green robe and a turban on his head, and he was dressed very simply. But he has big eyes and sharp eyebrows, his eyes are upright, his head is held high, and he exudes a strong aura.
"Foreign minister, the meritorious general who assisted the Han Dynasty, pays homage to His Majesty the Emperor." After Wang Youxiao came in, he just bowed his hand to Emperor Daojun.
In fact, the eunuch taught him etiquette before bringing him in.
His attitude caused an uproar among the officials in the hall.
"Bold. All the people in the world are the king's soil, and the shores of the land are the king's ministers. Your identity as Wang Youxiao is known to everyone in the court. You have lived in Liaodong for a long time. How dare you call yourself a foreign minister."
An official immediately blushed and scolded.
"That's right. You have been with Wu Nian for several years, and you don't know who your surname is?" Another official stood up and scolded.
nowadays. It would be useless if the imperial court did not pay attention to Wu Nian. Wu Nian's Fu Han General's Office, the chief historian, Sima, meritorious officials, captains, soldiers, and the second prefect all have personal files in the imperial court, and all eighteen generations of ancestors have been investigated clearly.
Faced with the public anger among the officials, Wang Youxiao showed no fear at all. Standing with his hands behind his back, he replied: "Since it is the land of the king in the whole world, it cannot be the king's ministers who are on the shore of the land."
"Then I dare to ask all the princes and ministers. What was the emperor doing when Liaodong fell?"
"How many Han people from Liaodong died unexpectedly, how many Han people from Liaodong entered the Pass and fled to Beizhili. How many Han people from Liaodong bowed their knees and surrendered to the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty?"
"The Mongolian Yuan Dynasty ruled Liaodong for several years. And the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty also had an emperor. According to the princes and ministers, I was first a commoner of the Chu State, and then became a commoner of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty. Now I am a meritorious official under the rule of General Fu Han, and I have a family with three surnames. Being a slave belongs to Yes.”
"In short. It's definitely not Chu Chen."
After Wang Youxiao finished speaking, his face turned red and angry, he looked around at the civil and military officials present and said loudly.
All civil and military officials felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured over their heads. Their hearts were suddenly cold and they were speechless.
Even Emperor Daojun, who had always been calm and calm, changed his expression slightly.
"Liaodong fell. It was not that the imperial court failed to rescue and abandoned millions of people in Liaodong. It was that the generals in Liaodong were incompetent and could not even delay the time. After that, the imperial court also responded quickly and appointed Xiong Wuwo as the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan. We sent 80,000 horse and infantry troops to the north and captured Nanhai Mansion."
At the critical moment, the chief assistant Wang Guifang stood up and first put the blame on the Liaodong general with righteous words.
Our Majesty cares about the people and has never abandoned them. It was all because of the incompetence of the Liaodong generals.
After cleaning up the Daojun Emperor and the imperial court. Wang Guifang added: "General Fu Han, in the face of adversity, started with 300 elite soldiers, repelled the Mongolian and Yuan soldiers, and recaptured Yingqing Mansion. His merits and loyalty were recognized by the court. So he sent an angel to confer the title of General Fu Han. Serve as the commander of Beishan."
"The imperial court will never mistreat its loyal ministers."
Wang Youxiao glanced at Wang Guifang one more time, then changed his expression, cupped his hands towards Wang Guifang, and said, "I wonder who this sir is?"
"Chief Assistant. Wang Guifang." Wang Guifang nodded gently.
"Thank you, Wang Shoufu, for speaking up." Wang Youxiao thanked him, then raised his head and said, "That's right. Our generals have contributed to the Chu Dynasty. But it is obvious to all how the imperial court treats our generals. Except for Beishan, who has no reputation. The official position of a commander is not supported by a grain of grain or a horse."
"This time. The general sent me to the court with only one request. He wants to deploy two generals, Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu, as his subordinates. Please ask the court to move the families of the two generals to Liaodong."
Wang Guifang and all the civil and military officials were stunned. Wu Nian sent envoys to the court for this matter?
Things on the Liaodong front line are really in the dark.
It was rumored that Xiong Wuwo and Wu Jing wanted to surrender to Wu Nian, but they were afraid that their generals would not comply, so they sold Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu first.
Now Wu Nian sent Wang Youxiao to the court to ask for the families of Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu.
That means Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu want to surrender to Wu Nian?
What exactly is going on?
Li Chunguang, the second assistant, couldn't bear it anymore and said with a sneer: "It turns out that these two traitors want to surrender to Wu Nian but are afraid of involving their family members."
"How could the imperial court release their family members? Not only would they not let them go, they would also kill the entire family."
"That's right. Guan Jinhan and Huang Hu are brave and good at fighting. How can we hand over their families to Wu Nian, a traitor? Isn't this funding the enemy? Absolutely impossible."
"Wu Nian's idea is too beautiful. This is absolutely impossible."
Officials from Li Chunguang's group immediately followed and said one after another.
Wang Youxiao had known this result for a long time. He raised his head again, looked around at the civil and military officials, then looked at the Emperor Daojun who was sitting on the dragon throne, and said loudly: "Then our general will set up an altar to worship heaven and earth." The gods tell the emperor and the queen of the land that he will be called King of Yan."
