Two days later.
"Mr. Chen, His Majesty is currently ill among the people, and Rouran is harassing my people there again. Is it true that nothing will happen if he is frightened?" Guo Huai stood beside Chen Ligang, looking very anxious.
Chen Ligang didn't say anything, he just waved the folding fan in his hand.
The reason why Chen Ligang didn't answer was because Liu Guang had just told him through a secret letter that there was nothing serious about him, so that he could handle it with peace of mind.
As for those guys with heavy troops, Liu Guang dealt with them personally.
But there is something that Chen Ligang can't figure out right now. Why did His Majesty go to that remote place in person and put himself in danger?
Although His Majesty's sexual intentions for him were obvious, he was told not to reveal the news that he was not injured, but to let everyone in the world know that he was seriously injured and could be dealt with by the Rouran people at any time.
Based on Chen Ligang's guessing skills, it is not difficult to guess that Liu Guang's intention behind the scenes is to lure out all these gangsters, and then resort to a desperate move to get rid of all the people who should be dealt with. But in his opinion, these The action was just too risky.
Nowadays, powerful people in various places have almost the potential to seal off borders and split the land. Since they have such a form, it is better to simply promote them from governor to prince, but what must be done is to let them All these powerful people delegate power to all their descendants.
Chen Ligang has thought about this strategy for a long time, and it is currently the most useful one.
Each prince's children are basically in their prime years and can all be canonized as kings. By then, their territory will shrink sharply, and he can send other people to sow discord between each king.
When the time comes, it will be the safest and least prone to any changes to eat them one by one.
But now something like this happened. His Majesty the Emperor used himself as a bait and personally arranged such a game of chess. Although he objected, since the game of chess had already begun, he could only cooperate to finish it.
After Li Changsha was killed, almost all the five thousand soldiers and horses in the capital fell into Liu Guang's control. Feng Ji, the leader of the Yulin Army, was also a man who could adapt to the changing circumstances.
Looking at the two thousand soldiers and horses led by the emperor in the capital, who are so capable of fighting and so determined to kill, if he starts a rebellion at this time, he will definitely be labeled as unfaithful, unfilial, and unkind.
So he simply defected and surrendered to the emperor.
In addition, Chen Ligang's own son came out and persuaded Li Changsha's two rebellious ministers to surrender, which made him even more determined to follow Liu Guang.
This was not because of his determination to abandon the dark side and join the bright side, but because he felt that if he took sides in advance, he would definitely be promoted to one rank in the future, or even directly promoted to many ranks, and his status would be much more prominent than it is now.
That's why he decided to make a bet.
This time, the news that the emperor was suddenly seriously injured and was still among the people soon became known to him.
Chen Ligang frowned and said nothing, while Guo Huai standing aside looked very anxious.
"Your Majesty is now outside the court, and the enemy is pressing forward step by step. When the reinforcements arrive, they will arrive at least three days later than the enemy. They have tens of thousands of cavalry, and we only have 5,000. How can we resist? And we have no way of knowing whether these five thousand people can do their best!"
Chen Ligang's frown relaxed, and he smiled and waved to him:
"Mr. Guo, you have to believe in your majesty. Ji people have their own destiny. I have been watching the sky for several days and nights. Your majesty is the most difficult variable to predict in the world. Even if something happens to your majesty, it will definitely not be now."
Guo Huai was very angry when he heard this, as if he thought Chen Ligang was talking nonsense.
"How long has it been, my great scholar Chen! That celestial phenomenon has no use! It's okay for ignorant common people to seek immortality and worship Buddha, and ask gods and Buddhas. Don't we scholars still know that everything depends on man? If gods, Buddhas, and celestial phenomena are real If it is useful, then why should Emperor Taizu rebel, and what should we do to help the emperor establish principles and disciplines?!"
The more Guo Huai spoke, the more impassioned he became, and his saliva was already flying everywhere.
Chen Ligang smiled and waved his hand at the minister Xu Jianzhong who was about to come up to dissuade him: "It's okay to let Mr. Guo scold him. After all, Mr. Guo has been living a useless life for so many years, and now he can finally feel proud."
"Chen! Although I admire your talent and knowledge, I also admire you for being able to persuade two people to surrender in a short period of time! But don't insult me. I know what the situation is and what to do. I have been I have always been groveling, but I know that as long as I keep my official position, anything is possible! That’s why I desperately want to help the current emperor!"
Chen Ligang shook his head helplessly, and Xu Jianzhong said: "Mr. Guo, Mr. Chen understands righteousness deeply and is a man with a heart for the world. He has been waiting for so many years and finally has a chance to show off his skills. Do you think he will be like this?" Easily put His Majesty, who supports you, in a place where you don't care?"
"Well, you surnamed Xu are talking nonsense! How many years have you been following me? What benefits has this surnamed Chen given you? You actually opened your mouth to help him but not me!"
Guo Huai still had an angry expression on his face, as if he was a muzzle, and he would shoot anyone he saw.
"Master Guo's feelings for you can be illuminated by the sun and the moon!"
"Fart!" Guo Huai flicked his sleeves angrily, "Although I don't have the strength to tie a chicken, and I don't know how to form an army, but in order to save the Holy Lord, I am willing to go to the border resolutely!"
Just as Xu Jianzhong was about to speak to dissuade him, Chen Ligang spoke first: "Master Guo, we are all ministers and we all have ambitions. Our journey of a thousand miles has not yet begun, and we will never stop moving forward now. I believe Your Majesty, I believe you can also trust Your Majesty, what he does will not go wrong.”
"What does it mean that His Majesty will never make mistakes in what he does? If His Majesty never makes mistakes, then what else would he need? Now we must rescue His Majesty!"
"What if His Majesty is going to use this kind of performance to bring those disloyal people out of the water in advance, and then catch them all one step ahead?" Chen Ligang smiled and looked at him sideways.
When Guo Huai heard this, he calmed down for a moment: "I don't care, you must tell me the truth today, otherwise I will suspect that you, surnamed Chen, are actually the remnants of the Prime Minister!"
"Master Guo, this hat is too big!" Chen Ligang laughed loudly and walked up to pat Guo Huai on the shoulder.
Then she lay down in his ear and whispered: "Your Majesty is not injured at all now. What your Majesty wants to do now is to attack from both front and back!"
