The end of the world begins with the king

Chapter 792 Face-to-face Opportunities
Walking out of Qian'an Hall, the officials left separately, only the two cabinet ministers walked more slowly.

It could be seen that the two of them felt so heavy that they didn't say a word during the walk.

After leaving Qian'an Gate and passing through Chongzheng Gate, the two of them came to the large square in front of Huangji Hall.

The place is extremely empty, the guards and eunuchs are far apart, and there is no outsider within 30 meters of the two of them.

"Xie Ge, congratulations!" Wang Tinghe finally spoke.

"Honestly speaking, at first I was more worried than happy, and then I was mixed. At this time... I just feel safe in my heart!"

Hearing Xie Xiaofang's words, Wang Tinghe sighed: "You are a sensible person, you have seen through fame and fortune!"

Taking a long breath, Xie Xiaofang said: "My big family finally got results, and it's up to you next..."

"Let's take one step at a time!" Wang Tinghe looked helpless.

From Zhao Yanxun's entry into the capital until now, the two of them have always been on tenterhooks.

The bloody massacre in front of the Huangji Gate and the countless families that were wiped out in the capital all reminded them that the danger was never far away.

Zhao Yanxun raised his troops and shouted the slogan of punishing traitors.

As cabinet ministers, what they did during Emperor Tai'an's period and Zhao Weilong's period were first-rate traitors to Zhao Yanxun.

Most of the people who were less serious than the two of them were killed and punished, so how could the two of them not be worried.

Therefore, when Xie Xiaofang landed safely, Wang Tinghe only had envy in his heart.

This pair of old enemies has now become a rare confidant.

"After you complete this errand, although you can return to the official position smoothly, you still have to act cautiously in the future, and don't be caught by others!"

Hearing Wang Tinghe's reminder, Xie Xiaofang cupped his fists and said, "I understand this!"

Xie Xiaofang knew how many people he would offend during this trip to the south, and he naturally had plans in his heart.

"That's good!"

After talking about this, the two of them chatted about the affairs in the south, and finally walked out of Huangji Gate.

In the barracks outside the south gate of the capital, four commanders gathered together.

At this moment, their faces were particularly ugly, showing that they were in a bad mood.

"We haven't beaten this bunch of idiots yet, but he surrendered first!" Xu Hong couldn't bear it first, and chose to yell.

Duan Hong, the Commander of the Fifth Guards, followed up and said, "Who says it's not, the good military achievements are just gone!"

Tan Lu, the Commander of the Seventh Guards, continued: "Our whole army has just obtained the power of supernatural power, but if we fail to make great achievements on the battlefield, I am afraid that we will be inferior in the future!"

Tan Lu's words are not alarmist, the military has always been respected by the strong, and if they can't see the truth on the battlefield, it will really make people look down on them.

At this moment, Yuan Guang, the Commander of the Eighth Guard, said: "Everyone, the matter has not reached the final stage!"

Xu Hong glanced at Yuan Guang, and said in a deep voice, "Why didn't you reach the final step? You don't mean to say that we can go to all over the country to kill monsters like those in the Guards Department?"

The [-] second-level soldiers of the Guard Division were all sent out after the upgrade was completed, and are now working to eliminate zombies in the Central Plains.

For Zhao Yanxun, cleaning up the zombies was also very important, so he sent out the most elite troops.

Seeing Yuan Guang shaking his head, Duan Hong asked beside him: "It is said that there will be a big war in the northwest, could it be that you are talking about it?"

Before Yuan Guang could speak, Tan Lu on the side said, "The northwest side has already been reserved by the guards behind, so I'm afraid there is nothing wrong with us!"

Because Southwest was included in the bag, Zhao Yanxun's actual population increased significantly, and he has recently upgraded many troops.

The ninth, tenth, eleventh, and twelve guards will go to the northwest in a few days after the upgrade has been completed.

Seeing these people making up their minds indiscriminately, Yuan Guang said helplessly, "Of course I didn't mean that!"

Xu Hong said impatiently: "Damn it, hurry up and say it, don't hide it!"

"Out of the five counties in the south, three counties have surrendered to the imperial court, but there are still two counties that have not been heard from!"

Seeing everyone staring at him, Yuan Guang continued, "As long as we go south before the surrender of the other two counties, maybe we can fight a few more battles!"

"Chen Yu and they won two counties, and we will also win two counties, so it's just as good!"

Hearing this, everyone at the scene admired Yuan Guang's brain hole, and after careful consideration, it was indeed so feasible.

"What do you think?" Xu Hong glanced at the others.

Seeing Duan Hong and Tan Lu nodding, Xu Hong immediately said: "Then let's go to the palace and challenge the prince face to face!"

When he heard that the game was serious, Duan Hong hesitated and said, "Really?"

"You don't have to go, I'm going anyway!"

After saying that, Xu Hong ignored the others and walked directly out of the room.

Seeing Xu Hong leave, the other three thought for a while, gritted their teeth and followed.

In Qian'an Hall, after all the ministers left, only Cheng Wenguang was left behind.

After several wars in the Central Plains, plus the previous zombie rebellion, the strength of the local clans has been greatly weakened.

Taking advantage of this rebellion, he can clean up the big families in the south, and the centralization of power can be further strengthened.

At this point, if he wants to reform the country, there will be basically no resistance.

Allotment to the mu, officials and gentry paying food, restricting the clan, opening up commerce... He will arrange everything that can be implemented.

By leaving Cheng Wenguang behind, Zhao Yanxun wanted to tell him some things, and listen to his judgment on the situation in the south and how he would behave after going to the south.

These words are not suitable for outsiders to hear, so Zhao Yanxun can only leave Cheng Wenguang alone.

On the dragon chair, Zhao Yanxun smiled and said: "After listening to your performance, I can finally feel at ease!"

"I'm stupid, thanks to Your Highness for pointing it out!" Cheng Wenguang was extremely humble.

After waving his hand, Zhao Yanxun said: "Go back and prepare now, you will set off in two days!"

"Yes... Weichen resigns!"

After Cheng Wenguang saluted, he exited the hall cautiously.

After some questioning, he felt very tired, and he didn't feel much lighter until he walked out of the hall.

Taking a long breath, Cheng Wenguang only felt that the road ahead was even, and the position of cabinet minister was far away.

"Huh? Why are they here?"

The "they" in Cheng Wenguang's mouth refers to Xu Hong and the others who came in a hurry. They are waiting outside Qian'an Gate at the moment, and a young eunuch is walking into the palace gate, apparently to inform them.

"Become an adult!"

Cheng Wenguang nodded, and didn't talk much with Xu Hong and the others, because he knew that civil and military officials should avoid suspicion.

Taking Cheng Wenguang away, a young eunuch came out of the palace gate after a while, and said to Xu Hong and the others: "My lord let you in!"

"Hey, thank you very much!"

The four people who were arrogant and dry, became extremely kind at the moment, and even bent their backs after entering Qian'anmen.

To be honest, their proposals were unreasonable, so the closer they got to Qian'an Palace, the more uneasy they felt.

"Several, please!"

Outside the main hall, it was Huo An who came to greet him.

When several people entered the main hall, they saw Zhao Yanxun sitting upright in front, so they knelt down and saluted.

"See Your Majesty!"

Putting down the memorial in his hand, looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Zhao Yanxun stretched. He had been sitting on the spot for more than an hour.

Getting up from the chair, Zhao Yanxun walked forward with his hands behind his back, and said calmly, "You guys are here, why are you here?"

After several people looked at each other in blank dismay, Xu Hong finally replied: "My lord, the ministers are here to invite you to fight!"

"What fight please?"

"Jiujiang County and Jiangdong County are occupied by rebels. The ministers are willing to fight against the rebellion. Please allow me!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yanxun was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face, and finally he laughed outright.

"Is that so anxious?"

With just one sentence, Xu Hong and the others understood that their thoughts had been seen through.

Just when they didn't know how to answer, they heard Zhao Yanxun say: "Don't worry, some things are left to you to do, and the credit should be yours!"

"Although the five counties in the south are pacified, the traitors and villains are still at large. Today, the King of the Court Council sent a pacification envoy to deal with these people!"

"Family and family extermination, there must be someone who wants to rebel. I sent you to the south to kill these people!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Yanxun said with a more serious expression: "There must be no chaos in the south!"

Zhao Yanxun, the local governor, could not believe it, so he would trust the army to go south to deter any disobedient people.

"Sir, you understand!"
