"Ah? Two Chanyus? What's going on?"
Huchuquan was dumbfounded.
"Compared to the Great Chanyu, the Little Chanyu has less power, but he is still responsible for the affairs of the entire clan."
"Once the big chanyu is in trouble, the little chanyu can take over from him and manage the entire Huns."
Yang Ling explained slowly.
"Then... I wonder who General Wu Guanzhonglang plans to appoint as Xiao Chanyu?"
Hu Chuquan said cautiously.
"Of course it's King Zuoxian."
Yang Ling smiled slightly and said to Liu Bao,
"From today on, you are the little Chanyu of the Xiongnu."
When I promised Liu Bao to help him become the Xiongnu Chanyu, this was not considered a broken promise, right?
Liu Bao thought that after defeating Gao Gan and others, Yang Ling would kill Hu Chuquan and support himself as a chanyu.
But he never expected that Yang Ling would create two Shanyus, one big and one small.
But Liu Bao couldn't accuse Yang Ling of breaking his promise.
After all, the little Chanyu is also a Chanyu, but his power is not that great.
Liu Bao can be said to be a mute who eats Coptis chinensis and cannot express his sufferings.
But he couldn't say anything, he could only say in a low voice,
"Your Majesty, take your orders!"
Yang Ling nodded with satisfaction when he saw this.
"Okay, you go down first!"
After Huchuquan, Liu Bao and others left, Gan Ning could not restrain his curiosity and said,
"Huchuquan betrayed the court many times. Why didn't brother Ziyi kill him directly? Instead, he allowed him to continue to be the chanyu and Liu Bao to be the junior chanyu?"
Yang Ling smiled and said nothing, and said to Gao Ju who was aside,
"Mr. Wen Hui, you might as well express your opinion."
Gao Rou was startled for a moment, then realized that Yang Ling was testing herself.
He pondered for a moment, then slowly said,
"The Master with five sense organs must be trying to use checks and balances."
"Checks and balances?"
Gan Ning looked even more confused.
Yang Ling nodded and signaled Gao Rou to continue.
"Non-my family, its heart must be different."
"The Huns drank their hair and drank their blood. They were stubborn and unyielding. They were extremely cruel."
"Whether it's Yu Fuluo, Hu Chuquan, or Liu Bao, they don't really submit to my big man."
"If Wu Guan Zhonglang will eliminate Huchuquan today, Liu Bao will continue to invade my Han Dynasty after Liu Bao unifies the Xiongnu in the future."
"So it's better to keep Hu Chuquan and use the grudge between him and Liu Bao to make them fight among themselves."
"In this way, we can ensure the long-term peace and stability of our Han border."
After Gao Rou finished speaking, Gan Ning, Ma Chao and others' eyes lit up.
Yes, instead of getting rid of Huchuquan, let Liu Bao's family dominate.
It would be better to leave Huchuquan and let him and Liu Bao check and balance each other, which is the long-term solution.
"Mr. Wen Hui is indeed very smart."
Yang Ling's eyes were full of appreciation and he praised him.
"I've been praised too much for being a gentleman with good facial features. Compared with you, I'm just a little clever."
Gao Rou said respectfully.
"Don't be so modest."
Yang Ling smiled and waved,
"I hate flatterers the most, and appreciate talented people the most. As long as you have the ability, I will not treat you badly. Do you understand?"
Gao Rou's heart trembled, and her expression became more respectful.
"clear!"
After solving these problems, Yang Ling looked at Ma Chao again.
"General Meng Qi, according to what General Xingba said, you lost the competition between the two of you."
Ma Chao hesitated for a moment and then bowed respectfully to Yang Ling.
"I am willing to admit defeat! From now on, I am willing to swear allegiance to General Wu Guan Zhonglang, and I will never complain again!"
With Ma Chao's promise, Yang Ling felt much more at ease, but he was not completely relieved.
Who made him suffer from evil deeds? Not only did he waste the lives of his father and brother, but he also abandoned his wife.
But there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, just slowly transform him!
…
By the time all matters were taken care of, the sky was already darkening.
Zhou Cang followed Yang Ling's instructions and ordered a celebration banquet to be held in the city.
When Yang Ling arrived with Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, the hall was already full of people.
"I've seen the general with great facial features!"
Everyone stood up and saluted Yang Ling.
"You don't have to be polite!"
After sitting down, Yang Ling raised the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile,
"Thanks to our concerted efforts, we were able to defeat the rebel high-ranking cadres and others. I will ask the Prime Minister for credit later. Come, let's drink this cup together!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank the wine in one gulp.
After a while, the atmosphere of the banquet became lively.
Yang Ling put down the wine glass in his hand and said to Ma Teng and Han Sui next to him,
"I have something to tell General Andi and General Anjiang. I plan to leave Hanoi County tomorrow and go to Jizhou."
"Ah, is Mr. Wu Guanzhong so anxious?"
Ma Teng was surprised.
"Yes, the Prime Minister has ordered me to go there as soon as possible."
Yang Ling smiled.
Before he could deal with the high officials, Cao Cao sent a letter.
He said that the war in Jizhou was not going well, so he asked him to pacify Hanoi County as soon as possible and provide timely support.
Now that the senior officials have bowed their heads, it is time to rush over.
"In this case, I wish you great success in advance."
Ma Teng and Han Sui raised their wine glasses and congratulated.
But Yang Ling didn't pick it up. Instead, he smiled lightly and said,
"But before I leave, I have one more thing to discuss with General Andy."
Do you have something to discuss with yourself?
Ma Teng was slightly startled, then smiled quickly and said,
"You are so polite, Mr. Wufenzhong. If you have anything to do, just give me your instructions."
"Then I'll tell you straight."
Yang Ling paused and looked at Ma Yunlu behind Ma Teng with burning eyes.
"I yearn for your love very much, with her beautiful face and delicate orchid heart. Therefore, I also ask General Andi to marry you to me."
Not to mention Ma Teng and Han Sui, even Ma Yunlu didn't expect that Yang Ling would propose to marry Ma Yunlu so directly.
Yang Ling had previously married Cao Cao's daughter Cao Qing. If Ma Yunlu married her, she would only be treated as a concubine.
If it were anyone else, Ma Teng would definitely not be happy.
After all, the Ma family is a noble family and a noble family.
But for Yang Ling, it's different.
Everyone knows that Yang Ling is highly regarded by Cao Cao and is the most popular figure in the court!
However, Ma Teng has always loved Ma Yunlu, so he also wanted to see what she meant.
He hesitated and looked at Ma Yunlu with inquiring eyes.
Ma Yunlu lowered his head, his pretty face flushed slightly.
No matter how tough she was before, in the final analysis, after being invaded many times by Yang Ling, she was conquered by Yang Ling and fell in love with her.
"Daughter... obeys her father in everything."
A wise woman is better than a husband.
Seeing her gesture, Ma Teng also understood that his daughter still agreed.
He quickly smiled at Yang Ling and said,
"Thanks to Wu Guan Zhonglang, I will never give up, and I am willing to marry Yun Lu to you!"
"That's good. It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Let's just go through the process today."
Yang Ling smiled.
