Chapter 301 Guo Jia offers advice!

royal palace.

In front of Zhengde Hall.

Several officials knelt down here for a long time, only to hear hurried footsteps coming from behind. Lin Qiushi walked over with a deep expression and looked around.

"My lords, what does this mean?"

"Master Prime Minister!"

"His Majesty actually granted His Highness King Yong the power to open a palace and appoint officials on his own. He even allowed him to station 50,000 troops and gave him the emperor's sword. This is not in line with etiquette and law!"

"I'll wait here and ask Your Majesty to take back your order!"

All the officials looked gloomy and frowned, and it was obvious that they had not been summoned by Emperor Yu.

"Nonsense!"

Lin Qiushi looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "As an official of the imperial court, you are acting so absurdly. Since His Majesty's decree has been issued, he naturally has his own intentions. Are you kneeling here so long that you can force him into the palace?"

"I don't dare to wait..."

"Don't back down yet!"

"Prime Minister, but... Huainan is the hometown of King Huai after all. It occupies the land of sixteen states and has a population of over one million!"

"Your Majesty allowed him to support his troops. Is his power too much of a favor?"

"I will mention this matter to His Majesty. Please step aside first!"

"yes!"

Lin Qiu Shi persuaded all the officials to retreat, with a look of sadness on his face. After thinking for a moment, he stepped forward and saluted: "Your Majesty, Lin Qiu Shi, I want to see you!"

…

"coming?"

"See Your Majesty!"

"Get flat!"

Emperor Yu put down the letter in his hand and looked calmly at the minister in front of him: "As soon as King Yong left the city, the assassins chased him. Who do you think these people will be assigned?"

"Your Majesty, is your Highness okay?"

"It's okay!"

Lin Qiushi breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, I think this matter may have nothing to do with our court!"

"You mean, the enemy's forces took action this time?"

"My lord, don't dare to lie!"

"However, His Highness has just defeated Yan's army in the western border, so he will definitely be regarded as a thorn in his side. I believe that the enemy's spies have a motive!"

"Um!"

Emperor Yu nodded slightly, placed the secret letter in his hand on the candlestick, and said softly: "What you said makes sense!"

"What do you think of me releasing King Yong to save Tibet?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, I believe that Your Majesty intends to train His Highness. Over the past year, Your Highness has made great achievements for me, Dayu, and it is appropriate to be praised."

"However, His Highness mainly displays his military talents, and his methods are not mature enough. This time, we can polish His Highness. We will know after a while whether he can become a talented person!"

"As for the power granted to His Highness, I think it is not a big deal!"

"After all, His Royal Highness King Yong is extremely talented, and he has no second thoughts about His Majesty..."

"okay!"

Emperor Yu waved his hand impatiently and said softly: "In the past few days, the officials in the court will definitely have objections to this matter. You stop them outside the palace."

"I have made my decision on this matter, and there is no way I can take it back!"

"According to the order!"

"Anything else?"

"Your Majesty, regarding the peace negotiations in Donghuai..."

…

"Asshole!"

"Father is partial!"

"Why should he be given the Emperor's Sword, and even appoint officials from one place and station 50,000 troops?"

"We might as well just make him the prince and give him this country!"

In the Changyang Palace, the fourth prince Ning Shu was furious, with a look of reluctance on his face. Over the years, he has performed conscientiously in the capital, trying hard to maintain the appearance of a wise ruler, diligent in government, loving the people, polite and filial to his elders!

But his father has never looked at him twice. His efforts have never seemed to be taken seriously by his father, but his second child has always been pampered and pampered!

Nowadays, even the treatment of Tibet is different. When he goes to Tibet, he can neither form troops nor easily interfere with the affairs of the county governor's office. It can be said that he is granted a title or not. Not to mention appointing officials, even interfering in political affairs may not be possible. I can get it in.

"Your Highness, calm down!"

"In my opinion, Your Majesty may really intend to give up on King Yong this time."

"Um?"

Ning Shu had a serious look on his face, staring straight at the staff member, and said gloomily: "Why do you say that?"

"Your Highness, although His Majesty has granted him tremendous power this time, don't forget that there is Huainan, the land of rebellion that has just been recovered!"

"Over the years, the imperial court has had no control over the sixteen states of Huainan. Now, all the officials in Huainan are the old people left by King Huainan."

"Although His Majesty granted King Yong the power to appoint officials, he did not send anyone to assist him. Although His Majesty gave him the power to organize troops and horses, he did not provide any money or food."

"It can be said that Huainan today is a hot dogwood. Even though King Yong holds the imperial edict from the court, can anyone in Huainan recognize him?"

"He killed it single-handedly and wanted to control the sixteen states in Huainan?"

"Could it be that the local powerful and powerful people surrendered to him just by an imperial edict?"

"Besides, I heard that banditry has been rampant in Huainan recently, and there is even a tendency to cede territory for self-reliance. Today's Huainan can be said to be a place of chaos."

"Prince Yong wants to establish a foothold in Huainan, haha, it is nothing more than a dream!"

After hearing the words of his staff, Ning Shu's gloomy expression gradually cleared up, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"I see!"

"Sir, you have seen clearly. My father is showing great favor this time in name, but in reality, it is no different than a betrothal."

"Hahaha, he wants to control the sixteen states of Huainan?"

"What a foolish dream!"

"Hahaha, come on, serve the wine, I want to drink!"

...

"Fengxiao, in your opinion, where should we start this time?"

"My Lord, Wenhe had made plans in Huoyunzhou years ago. Now the land of this state is completely under our control. In my opinion, it is better to start from Huoyunzhou."

"Hmm!"

Ning Fan nodded slightly and said softly: "Do you have any information about Huainan?"

"Before coming, Jiang Li and Jia Xu summarized the information about Huainan, and I have read it through."

"Tell me about it!"

"My Lord, how can the King of Huainan support thirty people in these years? 10,000 troops, and still standing firm, it is inseparable from the support of the three tribes in Huainan!"

"Oh?"

"Although the court has provided Huainan with food and military pay, it is difficult to support 300,000 troops, and Huainan has three major powers, namely Cai, Lu, and Du!"

"These three families have been entrenched in Huainan for a long time and are very prestigious. It can be said that if you can control these three families, you can easily take over the land of Huainan."

"Interesting!"

"In that case, don't rush to Huoyunzhou, meet these three major powers first!"

"Haha, first one of the four major families has not been solved yet, and now another three major powers have emerged, which is really interesting!"

"My lord, I have a plan!"

...
