Han Dao world

Jia Xu smiled. "Your Majesty's decision-making is swift and has the legacy of the great ancestors. Please rest assured, General Ning Ji will only obey His Majesty's orders. Don't talk about sending some food to Yang Ding. Even if His Majesty asks him to join forces with Yang Ding, he will abandon his personal grudges and do righteous things. Put the big picture first.”

Yang Biao pouted secretly.

Just listen to Jia Xu's words, but don't take them seriously.

Can Duan Yan laugh away his grudge with Yang Ding just because of His Majesty's words?

Jia Xu clearly meant something.

"Your Majesty, I'm going to see the captured cavalry, maybe I can get some news."

"There is a servant in service."

Jia Xu got up, bowed to Liu Xie, then saluted Yang Biao, turned and left.

Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao. "Mr. Yang, is there anything else?"

Yang Biao sighed: "Your Majesty, even if Li Jue attacks Yang Feng, the possibility of cutting off your Majesty's return is unlikely, and it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. It is better to return to the imperial camp as soon as possible. The Wei Wei can control the Northern Army, but not the three generals. A strong enemy is pressing down on the border, fighting alone is not the way to win."

"Didn't I follow Yang Gong's wishes and order Weiwei to do the work of Taiwei?"

"Your Majesty..." Yang Biao was anxious. "Although it is an ancient system for the Taiwei to command the army, it has been abandoned for a long time. How can you gain the trust of the generals in a hurry? When the soldiers are fierce and the battle is dangerous, your majesty must not be willful."

Liu Xie looked at Yang Biao without saying a word.

Yang Biao was very anxious, but he was frustrated by Liu Xie's look.In desperation, he let out a long sigh.

"Your Majesty, since Emperor Xiaowu established the inner court, the dispute between the inner court and the inner court has intensified. Emperor Guangwu made the three princes sit down to discuss the Tao, and the power was transferred to the official book. As for Emperor Xiaoling, he used the eunuchs as orders, causing catastrophe. People of insight are all heartbroken by these things. Your Majesty wants to get rid of the evils and revitalize, how can you sit idly by? If the imperial court thinks that the three princes are not suitable for performing their duties, why should the three princes be left in vain, wasting money and blood of the people?"

Yang Biao left the table, prostrated himself on the ground, and said with tears: "I am not a person who loves the inn, let alone a vegetarian meal. I implore your majesty to remove the minister from the post of Taiwei. If you think that the minister is useful, then you will be appointed as an official who can be used. Do not dare to fight for food." Resignation. If you think that the minister is not available, please release the minister and return to his hometown to farm and study."

Liu Xie also sighed.

Although Yang Biao was a bit domineering, he was loyal, so he shouldn't make things difficult.

He got up and walked in front of Yang Biao, and supported Yang Biao with both hands.

"Mr. Yang, I'm not willing to pay the power. It's really like what Mr. Yang said. The three lords have been left in vain for a long time. The ancient system should not be restored in a hurry. And the ancient system also said that the prime minister must come from the state herdsman, and the strong general must be sent to the army. Now How many people are like this? Wei Wei knows about military affairs, how can I not know, but he has commanded thousands of soldiers, and how many battles have there been? Suddenly giving the heavy responsibility to the Taiwei, is it any different from pulling the seedlings to encourage them?"

He patted Yang Biao's hand lightly. "I don't doubt the captain's loyalty. But I'm really worried about the captain's patience."

"Your Majesty, minister... minister..." Yang Biao blushed and was speechless.

It never occurred to him that he had been an official for half his life and thought he was calm and capable, but now he was accused of lack of patience by the fifteen-year-old emperor.

But if you think about it carefully, the emperor is indeed right.

Shi Sun Rui did know about soldiers, but that was compared with other ministers who did not know about soldiers.Compared with Li Jue and Guo Si, who fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Shi Sun Rui was an out-and-out scholar with very little experience in commanding troops in combat.

At this moment, it is not a suitable time for Shi Sun Rui to serve as the Taiwei and fully control the military power.

The emperor said that he was counterproductive, and he did not wrong him at all.

"Your Majesty, when did you read "Han Feizi"?"

"Huh?" Liu Xie was confused.What "Han Feizi"?I haven't read it.

"If you remember well, Your Majesty's sentence just now, 'The prime minister must come from the state pastor, and the strong general must be sent to the army' comes from "Han Feizi"."

Liu Xie suddenly came to his senses, and then he couldn't laugh or cry. "so what?"

"Your Majesty, Legalism is the way to subjugate a country." Yang Biao bowed solemnly. "Xiaowu reused cruel officials, causing countless misfortunes, even witches and poisons, and father and son killing each other. Your Majesty has the ambition to rejuvenate, and you must not repeat the same mistakes. Even if you have to use it to save the nation, you must use Confucianism at that time."

Liu Xie wanted to explain, but on second thought, since Yang Biao was not beaten to death with a stick, it seemed that there was no need to argue for it.

Besides, the key to this kind of thing is not the debate, but the effect.

"Thank you for reminding me, Mr. Yang, I will remember."

Yang Biao nodded. "Your Majesty is extremely intelligent. You can take all kinds of schools, and you can extract their essence and melt them into one furnace. You don't need to say anything. It's just that you are a captain. Although you don't have the ability to use soldiers, you have the responsibility to assist the prime minister. You dare not forget it for a moment. "

The corner of Liu Xie's mouth twitched, almost laughing out loud.

This old Yang Biao is worthy of being a descendant of the Hongnong Yang family. He is habitually barbed in his speech, and the emperor doesn't give him face.

This is the strength of character of the Han people who is highly respected by later generations.

-

Jia Xu walked into the tent where the prisoners were held.

"Servant." The soldiers on duty saluted respectfully.

The two wounded captives were lying on the ground pretending to be dead. They didn't say a word. When they heard footsteps, one of them opened his eyes and saw that it was Jia Xu. rise.

"Jia Jun."

The other prisoner also opened his eyes and looked at it. His expression changed greatly in shock, and he struggled to turn over and sit up.He wanted to stand up and salute, but he was injured too badly, so he could only half kneel.

"Jia Jun, you...why are you here?"

Jia Xu glanced at them indifferently, waved his hand, ordered someone to untie them, and called a doctor to come and heal their wounds.

The two captives refused to heal their wounds before and did not cooperate in various ways. Now in front of Jia Xu, they are as honest as rabbits, silent and at their mercy.The healers who healed them were not surprised, and treated their wounds swiftly.

In the Xiliang army, everyone respected Jia Xu, and many dared to draw swords against Shangguan, but they did not dare to act wildly against Jia Xu.

"Where is Da Sima?" Jia Xu asked unhurriedly.

The two prisoners glanced at each other, and one of them whispered, "According to the itinerary, I should have been in Zheng County last night."

"How do you know that someone will pass by there and set up an ambush?"

"Shortly after the appointment, we intercepted a messenger. The man was a coward, and he was fully recruited after a few words of scaring. We heard that the emperor was in General Duan's camp. We expected more news, so we wanted to set up a Credit, I didn't expect... to meet a tough hand. Jia Jun, who is that Gongming, it's amazing."

Jia Xu ignored them. "So, Da Sima should know I'm here by now?"

The two prisoners nodded in unison. "Jia Jun, why are you... here?"

"I am a minister of the Son of Heaven. I will be where the Son of Heaven is." Jia Xu said flatly, "This is the case now, and it will be the same in the future."

"Oh." The two prisoners responded awkwardly, with strong uneasiness in their eyes.

It is not good news for them that Jia Xu clearly said that they are dependent on the emperor.

"Can you still go?"

"Yes." The captives said nonchalantly, "It's a small injury, it's fine."

"Very good, eat more, then hurry back and tell Li Jue and the others." Jia Xu paused for a moment, and waited for the prisoners to concentrate and stare at him intently, then said word by word: "Li Jue Killing innocent people indiscriminately, hijacking family members, is an unforgivable crime. If other people can reform their mistakes and make atonement, I will speak for them in front of His Majesty, and spare their lives."

Chapter 42

Li Jue was leaning against the desk, raising his glass in one hand and resting his head in the other. His eyes were bloodshot, like a beast that would eat someone.

He was awakened by the rangers returning to the camp at dawn, and he maintained this posture, motionless.

He was in a good mood.

Guo Si was defeated and had to bow his head to him.He persuaded Hu Zhen again, and came together with more than [-] troops, thinking of easily defeating the traitors Yang Ding, Yang Feng and others, regaining control of the little emperor, ordering the world, and waiting just around the corner.

He never expected that Jia Xu would be in Duan Yan's army, and Duan Yan was attached to the little emperor.

Duan Yan is nothing more than an old man.

Jia Xu was really a little tricky.

There is no shortage of warriors in Liangzhou, and there are many who can ride and shoot well.

But Liangzhou lacks wise men, especially those who are unpredictable like Jia Xu.

He tried every means to win over Jia Xu, made low-key gestures, proposed a marriage proposal with great gifts, and even became an official and a nobleman, but Jia Xu rejected them all.

Jia Xu finally abandoned him.

"If I had known this, I should have killed him." Li Jue gritted his teeth in regret, and with five fingers forcefully, with a "snap", the colored glass gold cup in his palm was crushed, and the colored glass shards pierced his palm, causing pain to the heart and lungs.

"Father!" Li Shi was taken aback, and opened his mouth to call the doctor.

"It's okay." Li Jue raised his hand and said lightly.He took a sip of wine, sprayed it on the wound, then pulled out a silk handkerchief, and wrapped his hand. "Pass down the order, if anyone escapes back, bring it to me immediately, and no contact with other people is allowed. Anyone who violates the order will be beheaded!"

"Here." Li Shi didn't dare to talk too much, he answered and hurried out of the account.

Li Jue packed his hands, changed a cup, and continued to drink.

He's already drunk a lot and his head hurts.

But he can't care about these now.

Facing the trouble of Jia Xu and Duan Yan's attachment to the emperor, nothing could make his headache worse.

He has an ominous premonition that the prosperity and wealth that started with Jia Xu will end with Jia Xu in the end.

"It's such a good head, who can cut it off." Li Jue touched his head, deeply moved, and at the same time felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Fighting for a lifetime, but entering the soil with a rebellious identity, this is the fate of Xiliang people.

Dong Zhuo is like this, and I am no exception.

-

At noon, the two rangers returned to the camp, and were brought to Li Jue by people arranged by Li Shi.

Seeing Li Jue's face full of despair and madness, the two rangers realized that something was wrong, and fell to their knees as soon as they entered the account.

"How did you come back?" Li Jue asked.

"Jia...Jia Jun let us come back." A bolder ranger said.

"Does he have anything to say to me?"

You Qi swallowed his saliva, but stopped talking.Li Jue got up, walked around the table with messy cups and plates, walked in front of You Qi, knelt down, and handed the wine glass to You Qi's mouth.

"Have a drink."

You Qi glanced at Li Jue uneasily, held Li Jue's hand, took two sips of wine, moistened his throat, and said what Jia Xu asked them to bring to Li Jue.He was very nervous, afraid that Li Jue would have a sudden attack, but Li Jue was very calm, and even nodded, as if agreeing with Jia Xu's opinion.

After You Qi finished speaking, Li Jue frowned, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is there anyone else?"

You Qi froze for a moment before reacting. "Dead...dead."

"How many people are there?"

"Five...five."

"How many were injured and how many died?"

"Four were injured and one died."

Li Jue's eyes became sharp. "Nine of you ambushed five of them, three were killed, two were injured, and only one of them died?"

The ranger almost collapsed on the ground. "He... among them is a... master, who seems to be... called Gong Ming, and his sword skills are extremely fast."

"Gongming?" Li Jue turned to look at Li Shi, "Do you remember this person? Why don't I have any memory at all."

Li Shi thought for a while. "Yang Feng has a man named Xu Huang, named Gongming, maybe it's him?"

"Xu Huang? No impression." Li Jue stood up and walked back and forth twice. "So, Yang Feng is also desperately working for the little emperor? This is really strange. Jia Xu wants to be a loyal minister, I can understand, a scholar. Yang Feng is a white wave thief, what is he doing so desperately?"

Li Shi was confused and didn't dare to speak.

Based on his understanding of Li Jue, he knew it was not appropriate to talk too much at this time.Otherwise, even if the mother came, she would not be able to save herself.

Li Jue didn't wait for an answer, didn't say anything, just waved his hand.

"Drag it out and chop it up."

Li Shi was taken aback, and just as he was about to speak, Li Jue said again: "No, I'll come in person." After speaking, he drew out the long knife at his waist and walked around the two rangers twice. "Don't blame me, it's not me who wants to kill you, it's Jia Xu who wants to kill you. When you become ghosts, go ask Jia Xu for your life."

The two rangers yelled in fright, and as soon as they yelled, the long knife in Li Jue's hand flashed repeatedly, and the two heads fell to the ground, blood spurting everywhere.

Li Shi took two steps back in fright, leaning against the wall, not daring to move, his legs trembling.

Li Jue wiped the blood from the knife on the ranger, and said: "I can't let them live, otherwise those people will kill me. Jia Xu is willing to forgive anyone, but he won't forgive me. I want to use my head to claim credit."

Li Shi nodded again and again, not knowing whether he really understood or pretended to understand.

Li Jue raised his head, looked far away, and sighed softly. "Jia Xu, Jia Xu, if I see you again, I will dig out your heart and see what is hidden in your exquisite heart."

He waved. "Go, invite Guo Duo to come."

-

Guo Si led a group of guards into Li Jue's yard, and saw the two rangers lying on the ground at a glance.

He raised his eyelids, looked at Li Jue who was standing with his hands behind his back, and quietly gestured to the guard behind him.
