Chapter 505
"We are waiting for the soldiers who died in battle. Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous, I admire you!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
Many generals were red-eyed because of Zhou Jian's attitude. Lin Changfeng and others were even more convinced that they were not following the wrong person. He was a good general who loved his soldiers.
Zhou Jian waved his hand: "Everyone, get up."
"I don't want to have anything to do with Prince Qing's affairs anymore. It will be handled by your six ministries and Dali Temple. Anyway, just kill him if you need to. Don't worry about the impact."
"Finally, just give me a memorial."
"Yes!" everyone responded.
"By the way, have you not heard from Marquis Wan Yang and Dong Zhuo yet? Even if they are far apart, you should know whether the fighting has started at this moment, right?" Zhou Jian asked, frowning.
At this moment, Horn and others were all dumbfounded, looking around, but no one knew the news.
It's not that the news is not flowing smoothly, it's just that the distance is too far and it's too late.
Sudden.
A forbidden soldier rushed in, looking anxious.
Shout: "Report!"
"Your Majesty, an urgent message from Marquis Wanyang Baili!"
"Dong Zhuo's troops have withdrawn!"
"His two armies, totaling 170,000 people, almost went to war after being restrained by Marquis Wan Yang, but Dong Zhuo seemed to have received the wind and immediately retreated to Tongzhou."
"The two sides did not fight, it was a false alarm!"
Suddenly, the ministers all smiled, breathed a sigh of relief, and even wiped their sweat directly.
"Hahaha, not bad, not bad!"
"It's okay if there is no fight. The armies of both sides are so huge. Once a fight breaks out, the outcome will be unpredictable."
"Besides, fighting would also be a self-depletion of the Zhou army's strength!"
Everyone said something to each other, but suddenly they gradually became quiet, just because Zhou Jian's face on the dragon throne was not very happy, or even ugly.
Suddenly, the court fell into silence.
Zhou Jian frowned, exhaled a breath, and looked down: "You are not wrong to be happy. It is also a good thing not to fight."
"But in this case, Dong Zhuo will not be considered a real rebel. This piece of shit will definitely say that he is just training troops, and the letter from King Qing is also fake."
"What will I do with him then?"
Hearing this, the courtiers whispered among themselves and then reacted.
Yes, as long as he cannot afford troops, it is really difficult to convict him of death, and it is also difficult to attack his hundreds of thousands of troops.
Qin Zhen stood up, his murderous face serious: "Your Majesty, even if he is not a rebel, it is true that he ignored the emperor's orders, ignored the law, crossed the border privately to train troops, and killed the imperial generals, right?"
Horn also said: "Yes, Your Majesty, these are enough to kill his head!"
Zhou Jian smiled bitterly: "Of course I know this, but since he respects his own troops, he may not be willing to return to Beijing."
"And if we kill him, how can we restore the military power of Kyushu? Kyushu is Dong Zhuo's home base. If he dies, there will definitely be a successor, or it will cause a mutiny."
His thinking always comes to a head.
Suddenly, the cabinet ministers were speechless and all looked embarrassed.
Your Majesty, what you are thinking is quite reasonable. No wonder you looked so bad just now. If Dong Zhuo really rebelled, it would be easy to deal with it. He could directly order the princes of the world to eliminate the rebels!
A long silence.
Suddenly, Zhou Jian's eyes lit up, and bang, he slapped the case and it bounced up.
"By the way, why did I forget his father, Dong Shuo?"
Everyone looked at each other and wondered: "What does your Majesty mean...?"
Zhou Jian said: "The matter of military power in Kyushu is just a matter of tactics. Dong Zhuo must deal with it."
"If this bitch dares not to go to Beijing for trial, I will kill his father to see how crazy he is!"
"Come and convey my imperial edict!"
