After talking about Guo Si, Yang Feng continued to talk about Li Jue.
He was obviously more afraid of Li Jue than Guo Si, and he did not dare to take the initiative at all. All arrangements were based on defense.
Stick to it.
It can be seen from this that his request for the right to make a decision on the spur of the moment is simply taking advantage of the situation and raising the price.
Liu Xie didn't say anything. He listened calmly to Yang Feng's explanation, discussed the details, and made some circumstantial suggestions without insisting. As long as Yang Feng had the slightest objection or explained a little, he would nod his approval and express his support.
The meeting went smoothly and Yang Feng was in a good mood and high spirits.
Taking this opportunity, Liu Xie proposed a plan to go to Duan Xuan's camp.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, why do you want to go to Duan Xuan's camp?" Yang Feng patted his chest and said carelessly: "Since ancient times, only ministers can see the emperor, how can a king meet his ministers? If Duan Xuan refuses to come, I will not come.
I dare to ask your majesty to give you an edict, and I am willing to take the lead, lead my troops to defeat Duan Suan's camp, and tie him to your majesty."
Liu Xie smiled and winked at Yang Biao.
Yang Biao took a deep breath, tried to keep his smile, and bowed slightly.
"Everyone knows the bravery of generals. However, it is not advisable to make too many enemies in the face of a powerful enemy. Zhang Ji is in Shaanxi, and if Duan Xuan is defeated, invite Zhang Ji to come and help. Wouldn't it be troublesome for the general to fight one against two? Why not temporarily calm down?
, combined with Duan Xuan, ordered him to stop Zhang Ji, relieve the imperial court's worries, so that the general can fight against Li Jue and Guo Si with all his strength, and make new achievements."
Seeing Yang Biao giving him face like this, Yang Feng felt proud, but he still refused to let go. "What if Duan Ruo has a disloyal heart and is not good for Your Majesty? Who can take on such an important task?"
"General, does he know the story of the Mianchi Meeting?"
Yang Feng shook his head blankly, his expression a little ugly.
Yang Biao was disdainful, but he still patiently explained the story of the meeting between Qin and Zhao in Mianchi. "The situation is dangerous now, and your majesty is willing to put himself in danger for the sake of the safety of the world. A certain incompetent person is willing to follow Lin Xiangru's story and go with your majesty. I wish.
The general is an honest man, and he leads a large number of troops for the situation. Even if Duan Yan has a disobedient heart, he will be afraid of the general's bravery and will not dare to take risks."
Seeing that Yang Biao compared himself to the famous general Lian Po and placed great responsibility on the safety of the imperial court, Yang Feng was so pleased that he almost didn't know what his last name was, so he agreed.
——
After the meeting, Liu Xie went to the tent prepared by Yang Feng to rest for a while, preparing to go to Duan Xuan's camp.
He just sat down and before he could take a breath, Yang Biao followed him in.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yang." Liu Xie smiled helplessly and pointed to the bed opposite. "Sit down and talk."
"Your Majesty, it's even harder." Yang Biao raised his hand. "Your Majesty, before going to the appointment, I have two things that I would like to ask for your Majesty's approval."
"Mr. Yang, please speak."
"First, does Your Majesty really want Yang Feng to kill the general in front of the formation?"
Liu Xie shook his head and nodded again.
Yang Biao looked confused.
Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "I don't want Yang Feng to kill the general in front of the formation. He may not have the courage and strength. The reason why I say this is that I don't want him to waste the battle."
Yang Biao tilted his head slightly and stared at Liu Xie with a pair of eyes that could see through the world. "But... Your Majesty has such a plan?"
Liu Xie raised his eyelids lightly, glanced at Yang Biao, and raised his lips slightly. "I do have this plan, but I will not put it into practice easily. Be prepared, and if this opportunity arises, I will not let it go easily. Mr. Yang
, I want to be the emperor immediately. Although I don’t have that ability yet, I must have such courage and be physically and mentally prepared.”
Liu Xie patted his knees and said with a smile, "Does Mr. Yang think so?"
Yang Biao frowned and was silent. After a moment, he said again: "Your Majesty has lofty aspirations, and I naturally support him. I only hope that your Majesty's words and deeds will be consistent, make more preparations, and not fight lightly."
"Don't worry, Mr. Yang." Liu Xie said, "What is the second thing Mr. Yang wants to say?"
"I have an appointment with Your Majesty, and there is something going on in the imperial camp. Does Your Majesty have any arrangements?"
Liu Xie was puzzled. "What Mr. Yang means is..."
Yang Biao paid his respects again. "Your Majesty, your Majesty will not abandon you and trust me with my heart. I am deeply grateful. Your Majesty is determined to revive the country, and I am willing to go through fire and water for your Majesty, even if I die. I am just a Confucian scholar and not familiar with military affairs. Now I will follow your Majesty again."
I have gone to the appointment and have no time to interfere with matters in the camp. What if Li Jue and Guo Si arrive and there is no one in charge in the camp?"
Liu Xie stared at Yang Biao twice and vaguely understood what he meant.
"What suggestions does Mr. Yang have?"
"I would like to resign from the post of Taiwei. I hope that your Majesty will not choose a wise man."
"for example?"
Yang Biao took a breath and exhaled slowly. "I believe that Sun Rui, the guard officer, is loyal and resourceful, familiar with military affairs, and is qualified to conquer the city. If your majesty can trust him and use it, he will be able to defeat Li Jue and Guo Si for your majesty."
, to solve the urgent need.”
Liu Xie stared at Yang Biao with burning eyes. "Is this the suggestion of Mr. Yang alone?"
Although Yang Biao was mentally prepared, Liu Xie's sight made him feel uneasy.
Suddenly, he understood Yang Xiu's mood a little bit.
Although the emperor is young, his eyes are nothing like those of a fifteen-year-old boy. They are more like those of an old man who is used to seeing all kinds of things in the world. They are full of vicissitudes of life and full of wisdom. They can see through the deepest thoughts in his heart at a glance.
.
Facing such a pair of eyes, even he couldn't take it easy.
Yang Biao swallowed subconsciously. "This is my own opinion. I hope your Majesty will think twice."
"If I refuse, will Mr. Yang insist on my request?"
Yang Biao's wrinkled forehead showed fine beads of sweat.
The words are on my lips, but I can't say them out.
He had been preparing for this moment for a long time. Regardless of whether the emperor agreed or not, he would deal with it.
The only thing he didn't expect was that the emperor's eyes would be so sharp.
Liu Xie silently withdrew his gaze, looking at his nose with his eyes, his mouth with his nose, and his heart with his mouth, as if he was in concentration.
He was filled with helplessness.
It has always been the belief of the scholar-bureaucrats in the Han Dynasty - especially the Eastern Han Dynasty - to break the practice of sitting down to discuss matters and regain real power.
In the Eastern Han Dynasty, scholar-bureaucrats came one after another, ministers fought hard in the court, and ministers argued in the streets. What ultimately led to two disasters caused by party imprisonment was not so much fighting for power with relatives and eunuchs, but with the emperor.
They won in the end, but the big man also died.
It has to be said that Jiang is very old and spicy, and Yang Biao grasped the timing of his attack very well.
The eunuchs had long been destroyed by Yuan Shao, Wang Yun and others, the relatives were weak, and Fu Wan was no threat at all. The emperor was young, and at this moment, there was no other choice but to rely on the three ministers and nine ministers.
Shi Sun Rui was transferred to the rank of Taiwei, and Shi Sun Rui took full command of the battle, which resulted in the fact that the Taiwei was in charge of the troops. He made military exploits and proved to the world that the Three Dukes were correct in taking power. Then Sikong took charge of the people and suppressed the internal dynasty, which was a natural progression.
Liu Xie even felt that it was not impossible to go down this road and restore the prime minister system, with the prime minister in charge of foreign affairs and the emperor ruling from the top.
This is the ideal system of Confucian kingship, and it is the supreme belief that these Confucian-born ministers strive for.
But he also knew that that was not the way of kingship, but the way of death.
The way to subjugate a country and destroy a species.
