Now Ling Emperor Liu Hong has also begun to attend the morning court.
Before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, ministers would not even dare to think about it.
Liu Hong sat lazily on the dragon chair and looked at the ministers below, feeling quite good.
The momentum of the Yellow Turbans in various places has been curbed. No matter when it is pacified, at least Luoyang City can sit back and relax.
"Your Majesty, the lieutenant general Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun have come to report that the yellow turban bandits in Yingchuan were defeated a few days ago. Only the first level was killed, and they have been sent to Luoyang."
"The two have now left for Runan. I think it won't be long before Yuzhou's Yellow Turbans will be wiped out."
The fat-headed and big-eared He Jin stood up and proudly told the story of his victory.
"Well, he is indeed a general appointed by the great general!"
Liu Hong was overjoyed when he heard that Yingchuan Bocai had accepted the offer. Now Luoyang was even more worry-free.
Zhang Rang sneered, looked at He Jin and asked angrily:
"General, as far as I know, Zhu Jun was defeated by Bo Cai in Yingchuan, and then he and Huangfu Song were trapped in Changshe by Bo Cai."
Now that He Jin has been promoted to general, he no longer pays attention to the ten permanent servants, and there is still a faint momentum to get rid of him.
Zhang Rang and others are not easy to deal with, and the two sides are already at war with each other.
"General, is this happening?"
Liu Hong raised his eyelids and looked at He Jin with a frown.
How did he find out about this damn castrated dog!
He Jin cursed secretly, then bowed to Liu Hong.
"Your Majesty, although Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun were defeated by the Yellow Turbans before, this time can be considered a great victory and atonement for their sins."
He Jin gave Zhang Rang a hard look and warned him not to cause trouble.
Zhang Rang laughed twice and said to He Jin:
"The general is so unfair. The victory at Yingchuan is true. Is it the fault of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun?"
Liu Hong's face became increasingly gloomy, and he looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.
"What's going on?"
He Jin suddenly broke out in sweat when he saw Liu Hong questioning him.
I originally wanted to take the credit for myself, but I didn't expect that this damn eunuch would actually make things difficult for me in every possible way.
"This this.."
He Jin hesitated and couldn't say anything.
Zhang Rang saw that He Jin couldn't fart for a long time, so he took the initiative to speak.
"Your Majesty, this great victory is the result of Liu Zhang, the commander of the bandit-breaking school."
"Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun just did their jobs and pursued the Yellow Turban Army."
"Liu Zhang? Haha, interesting."
Liu Hong murmured to himself, thinking of the young man who was seeking his own death.
First he glanced at Liu Yan in the crowd, and then his eyes fell on Zhang Rang.
"Let me tell you in detail."
Zhang Rang tells the story of how Liu Zhang was first made difficult by He Jin, then trained troops while walking, was besieged by the Yellow Turbans, sneaked into the enemy camp, planned arson, and beheaded Bo Cai, all in great detail, as if he was personally there.
All the important officials in the palace were stunned, even He Jin was dumbfounded. How come this order is so clear?
The battle report Huangfusong sent was too long, so he didn't read it carefully at all, he just glanced at the conclusion.
Huangfu Song also mentioned that Liu Zhang was the first to contribute, but He Jin didn't take it seriously at all.
Seeing the dumbfounded expressions of the ministers below, Liu Hong felt a little proud. After all, he personally promoted Liu Zhang.
Liu Hong was in a good mood and his face became rosy.
"Liu Zhang is the son of Liu Zongzheng, and he is the captain of the bandit-breaking school appointed by me personally."
"I also asked him to fight against the Yellow Turban rebels!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"
All the ministers were like human beings and knew that Liu Hong wanted to praise him.
"Hahaha."
"You are worthy of being a descendant of the great ancestor and son of the Liu family! Liu Zongzheng, you have given birth to a good son."
Liu Yan looked at the laughing Liu Hong, hurriedly stepped out of the queue, and bowed his hands.
"It's all thanks to His Majesty's wisdom that the dog is allowed to perform meritoriously."
Liu Hong nodded happily, then turned to look at He Jin with an unhappy expression on his face.
"General, how dare you make things so difficult for me, the captain of the bandit-breaking school appointed by me personally!"
He Jin was so frightened that he quickly knelt down, kowtowed and confessed.
"Your Majesty, I am sorry to say that the officers and soldiers of the three armies have just set off for the expedition, and the arsenal is really empty. Please take a closer look, Your Majesty!"
"Get up, where is Liu Zhang now?"
Liu Hong just knocked on He Jin, now he still needs to rely on He Jin.
"Now Lieutenant Liu has borrowed two thousand troops and horses from Huangfu Song and is heading to Jizhou."
Liu Hong looked at the ministers below and was very angry. What's the use of these wastes? They are worse than a fifteen-year-old child!
"My nephew is really a natural general. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are really famous generals in vain. Not only could they not defeat the rebels head-on, they were also besieged in Changshe!"
"Without my nephew, wouldn't my great men be in danger? With a thousand remnant troops, we could defeat a hundred thousand! Even if Han Xin comes back to life, it will be nothing more than this! Hahaha."
All the ministers hurriedly knelt down and shouted:
"God bless the man, God bless your majesty."
"Get up. Since Liu Zhang is leading the cavalry to Jizhou, I will confer Liu Zhang the title of Xiaoqi Lieutenant. Let him make further contributions to the Han Dynasty!"
All the ministers were in an uproar. Liu Zhang was only fifteen years old and was already named the Commander of the Xiaoqi School?
The Xiaoqi Captain and the Bandit Captain are not at the same level at all. Although both are captains, one only has 400 dan, while the other has 2,000 dan!
The bandit-breaking captain can only go out with the army. The heroic cavalry captain can fight alone, and the number of troops he can lead is increased several times.
"Okay, that's it."
When Liu Hong saw no one objected, he stood up and left.
"Retreat!"
Following the eunuch's loud shout, the ministers slowly retreated.
When Zhang Rang passed by Liu Yan, he paused and nodded. Liu Yan also nodded with a smile.
Zhang Rang spoke for Liu Zhang in this way not only because he was against He Jin, but also because he accepted a heavy gift from Liu Yan.
In Liu Zhang's letter to Liu Yan, the key point was that he must take care of Zhang Rang's affairs.
Having both money to collect and being able to deal with He Jin was probably Zhang Rang's happiest thing.
