Damn it, Xu You must have allowed himself to take back Liu Zhang’s position as Zhonglang General!
Why did I just believe what he said!
He Jin felt regretful, why was he so stupid?
Liu Hong narrowed his eyes and stared at He Jin, already determined to beat the general again.
"I remember that not long ago, Lu Zhi's conquest was unsuccessful, but the general interceded for Lu Zhi uprightly!"
"Now that Liu Zhang has made such a great contribution, it's okay if the general doesn't ask for a reward for him. Why do you want to get rid of him as a lieutenant general?"
"Is this the way a great general behaves? No reward for meritorious deeds, no punishment for delinquency?"
"Does the general want me to be a foolish king who doesn't distinguish between rewards and punishments?"
Liu Hong's last few words were extremely harsh and he stood up angrily.
The ministers knew that Liu Hong was really angry.
He Jin didn't expect Liu Hong to be so angry, so he knelt down.
"Your Majesty, this is not what I mean. Your Majesty, please be careful!"
"snort!"
Liu Hong snorted heavily and sat down slowly.
He couldn't really deal with He Jin because of this matter, he could only beat him.
"His Majesty!"
When the atmosphere in the palace was delicate, Liu Zhang spoke.
Liu Zhang first bowed to Liu Hong, and then said something that shocked everyone.
"Your Majesty, I think what the general said is not wrong."
Everyone looked at Liu Zhang in stunned silence, feeling confused in their hearts.
What's going on today? He Jin was stupid, and Liu Zhang was also stupid?
It is well known that He Jin is as stupid as a pig. He was originally a butcher and relied on Queen He to steal the position of general.
Liu Zhang is different. Liu Zhang's talent and learning are all known to the upper-class people. He has been called a child prodigy since he was a child, and he has the ability to speak well!
This Yellow Turban Rebellion also proved his military ability, and he can be said to be the most shining star of the Han Dynasty.
The officials had already seen that Liu Hong was taking this opportunity to suppress He Jin, and no one dared to plead for mercy.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang opened his mouth and said something shocking!
Liu Zhang looked at Liu Hong, who looked slightly angry, and bowed his hands.
"Your Majesty, I am young and don't have much talent. It's only thanks to your Majesty's great fortune that I can pacify the Yellow Turbans!"
"Before, replacing General Dong was an urgent matter and was done expediently. Now that the main force of the Yellow Turbans has been destroyed, my wish is over!"
"I don't expect to be a great general. I just hope to share your majesty's worries and do my best for the Han Dynasty! I am worthy of being a descendant of our great ancestor and son of the Liu family."
No wonder! All the ministers suddenly realized that Liu Zhang was using retreat to advance!
Too high, taking retreat in order to advance is too high, putting yourself on the moral high ground!
On the other hand, He Jin stupidly gave Liu Zhang a look of thanks. Being treated as a laughing stock by the ministers in the palace!
He Jin's IQ is really inferior to that of a pig or a dog!
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Liu Hong stood up again and cheered excitedly.
"Did you hear it, did you see it? This is the consciousness of the descendants of the Liu family! Do you think this kind of talented person can be allowed to sit at home?"
The ministers looked at each other, but no one dared to stand up and speak. After all, agreeing to reward Liu Zhang was tantamount to directly offending He Jin.
Although He Jin was not taken seriously, the power in He Jin's hands had to be taken seriously.
"Your Majesty, Liu Zhang deservedly played the first role in quelling the Yellow Turban Rebellion. If he is not rewarded, the officers and soldiers may feel disheartened."
An old man stood up and took the lead in asking for credit for Liu Zhang.
When all the ministers saw this old man, they were immediately reassured, as if they had taken a reassurance, and they all came out to pay homage.
"Your Majesty, please reward Liu Zhang generously."
It turned out to be Yuan Wei!
Liu Hong breathed a sigh of relief. If the ministers didn't answer, he would be very embarrassed.
"In the opinion of the Grand Tutor, how should I reward him?"
Liu Zhang turned his head slightly to look at Yuan Wei and showed a kind smile to express his gratitude.
Yuan Kui has a kind face and kind eyes, and an expression of being indifferent to the world.
But Liu Zhang knew very well that the current Yuan family could be said to cover the sky with one hand!
Yuan Wei responded to Liu Zhang with a kind smile, and then bowed to Liu Hong.
"Your Majesty, if it weren't for Liu Zhang, I don't know when the Yellow Turbans would be at peace! I don't know when the world would be at peace!"
"Liu Zhang has such a talent, so he might as well be granted the title of general. If there is an emergency in the future, he can lead his troops to rescue him!"
"This not only shows that Your Majesty is clear about rewards and punishments, but also gives full play to Liu Zhang's talents. What do you think of Your Majesty?"
Before Liu Hong could express his opinion, He Jin couldn't help but speak up.
"His Majesty!"
He Jin's tone was very anxious, as if he was afraid of missing something.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen meant the same thing just now! It's just that Wei Chen didn't express it clearly!"
"oh?"
Liu Hong was tired of standing, so he slowly sat down and looked at He Jin with a smile on his face.
"The general also has this intention?"
"Your Majesty, this is what Weichen means!"
He Jin was afraid that Liu Hong wouldn't believe him, so he kept emphasizing it over and over again.
"Since both the Grand Tutor and the General have this intention, I can't refuse!"
Liu Hong is really a good man. When he said these words, it was as if Yuan Wei and He Jin insisted on giving Liu Zhang a promotion.
"Liu Zhang captured and killed the bandit leaders one after another and put down the Yellow Turban Rebellion! He deserves the most credit! I have decided!"
Liu Hong paused for a moment, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
"Make Liu Zhang the general of the rear, open a mansion, and be promoted to the rank of Marquis of Wuting!"
Liu Zhang's tiger body trembled, and he quickly knelt down and bowed to the ground regardless of the horror in his heart.
"My lord Liu Zhang, thank you for your kindness!"
All the ministers, you look at me and I look at you. There was a look of astonishment in their eyes, but no one dared to raise an objection.
Many ministers even thought that this reward was very inappropriate. It was nothing to be granted a title, after all, he had such great achievements. It was just a title of empress general, in name only, but the most unacceptable thing was that he was actually allowed to open a mansion!
Opening a mansion is tantamount to openly confronting He Jin.
How old is Liu Zhang? He is only a teenager. To put it bluntly, he is not yet a child.
Could it be that Liu Hong was confused? Relying on a child to fight against the current general?
Immediately, the officials knew that this was not the most amazing thing. Because Liu Hong has more to say.
"The former Xiaoqi School Lieutenant Department is still under the jurisdiction of the Hou General's Mansion. You can make up 10,000 soldiers and wait for my orders at any time!"
Liu Zhang bowed to the ground again, his pupils could not help but widen!
"I will live up to His Majesty's high expectations!"
This power is too great! With ten thousand soldiers in Luoyang? This is why He Jin has such power!
He Jin was also stupid at this time. In order not to be blamed by Liu Hong, he just talked nonsense, but he didn't expect to make a big enemy for himself!
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Yuan Wei still looked indifferent to the world, as if whatever reward Liu Zhang received had nothing to do with him.
The crowd was awakened by Yuan Wei's words and worshiped Liu Hong together.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
"Um!"
Liu Hong smiled and nodded. He was very satisfied with today's results.
"Okay, that's it for today. Thank you for your hard work."
When the sound of retreat was heard, Liu Hong took the lead to leave the palace. Seeing Liu Hong leaving, the ministers also left in an orderly manner.
"General Liu, stay!"
A sharp voice stopped Liu Zhang who was about to leave.
"It turns out to be Mr. Zhang!"
Seeing that the person coming was Zhang Rang, Liu Zhang did not dare to be careless and quickly raised his hands in salute.
"General Liu, you don't have to be polite. I have admired General for a long time!"
"How dare you? Mr. Zhang has spoken out for justice many times. I am deeply grateful!"
Zhang Rang looked at Liu Zhang with a smile, this attitude made him very comfortable.
"We can't bear to see that butcher repeatedly insulting the general!"
"Master Zhang's kindness will be remembered by Liu Zhang in his heart!"
Liu Zhang knew that Zhang Rang was greedy for money, so he quickly hinted that he would not treat him badly.
As Liu Zhang expected, Zhang Rang burst into laughter when he heard this.
"General Liu is too polite. By the way, your majesty invites you, general, to come with me."
"Sir, please lead the way!"
When he was about to leave, Liu Zhang saw his father, looking at him with an uncertain face.
"Sir, please wait a moment. I'll say hello to my father."
"General, please excuse me."
Liu Zhang walked up to Liu Yan and bowed.
"Father is well."
Liu Yan nodded, still looking melancholy.
"Father, is there something wrong?"
When Liu Zhang saw Liu Yan's expression, he knew something must have happened and quickly asked.
"Hey! You go to see His Majesty first, and I will talk to you when you get home!"
Liu Yan ignored Liu Zhang and left.
"this..."
Liu Zhang had questions in his head, what's going on? He was promoted to a noble rank, why did his father look so sad?
"General Liu, let's go!"
"Master Zhang, please."
Liu Zhang suppressed the doubts in his heart. He still wanted to see Liu Hong. Liu Hong probably also had something to tell him.
At a time when he should be excited, Liu Zhang was extremely irritable.
Hope nothing happens. . . . . .
