Chapter One Hundred and Sixteen
Imperial Palace, Deyang Palace.
"This expedition to the Xianbei region is related to the might of our great Han Dynasty. I am waiting for the news that General Huangfu will return in triumphantly."
The emperor Liu Hong in the hall was standing. These days, he was so energetic that he even rarely looked at the border map and checked the results of the war between the Han and the Hu people in recent years!
As for the reason, it's really boring...
In the past, the ultimate ideal and goal of this emperor was to build a garden, play with women, and tease pets...
These are very expensive projects. How to raise money often makes him rack his brains and even fight wits and courage with court officials.
But now the situation is different. He is rich. Once this person has money, his back will be much straighter. If he keeps his back, he will have more levels of spiritual pursuits.
For example, pay attention to war; for example, leave a name in history!
In short, you have to play some more expensive projects, otherwise, how can you show his passion and luxury? As the saying goes, "pretending to be happy" makes people happy, even if the emperor is not immune to the vulgarity.
"I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's expectations and take the Xianbei territory into Han territory and the Xianbei people into Han slaves!" Huangfu Song bowed and bowed.
"Very good." Emperor Liu Hong nodded and said a few more pretentiously, "You should remember that those who offend me, who are strong in the Han Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away, and those who are strong in the Han Dynasty will be saved even if they are far away!"
Hearing words.
"Long live your Majesty!"
All the ministers and workers all bowed down... Not to mention anything else, His Majesty can spend such a large sum of money to support the border war, which is enough to comfort all the ministers and workers!
In contrast, Emperor Liu Hong.
The purpose was achieved and the pussy was pretending. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go away!"
At the same time, Yu Guang glanced at Cao Song, but found that he seemed a little frowning.
Emperor Liu Hong shook his head and said in his heart, "Cao Dasiong? Are you still worried? This battle is tailored by your grandson for your son. Wait for your son to return in triumphantly and shine on his family!"
Thinking of this, Emperor Liu Hong smiled slightly... He immediately gave Zhang Rang a look and left with big stance.
Next? Where should I continue to show off? For Emperor Liu Hong, this is a very deep philosophical question.
...
When the court meeting ended, naturally, a group of officials came to congratulate Huangfu Song.
After all, the cavalry team that commanded one of the five most elite Northern Army corpses in the Hanting Party was in real power. In addition, if you attack the Xianbei, you could make unparalleled achievements like the "Champion Marquis".
But it just...
Huangfu Song had a stern face and faced other people's congratulations, but he made a cold voice and didn't say much. He didn't like socializing and always showed a bad face to everyone.
Seeing this situation, the officials did not take the initiative to make things boring, so they simply stayed away from him and left quickly.
"General Huangfu..." Lu Zhi had a good relationship with Huangfu Song. He quickly walked to Huangfu Song. "He commanded the Northern Army and was equipped with all the troops, why didn't he be frowning?"
Lu Zhi could tell at a glance that Huangfu Song had something to do and asked a question directly.
"Oh, Lord Lu! Alas..." Huangfu Song wanted to speak but stopped, and he was speechless for a long time, but he had already told others that he was annoyed!
"But the troops and horses are not enough? Or who dares to deduct points?" Lu Zhi continued to ask.
"That's not these." Huangfu Song waved his hand and lowered his voice, "Mr. Lu? Do you know? Who is the cavalry commander in the army?"
"Who is it?" Lu Zhi looked curious.
The position of Cavalry Commander, commanding half of the cavalry, is of great importance. I think it is an outstanding representative figure like Zhu Jun who was promoted from the bottom of the class.
"Oh..." Huangfu Song sighed again. "It's Cao Cao, the eldest son of Cao Dasiyuan!"
"Ah..." Hearing this, Lu Zhi was shocked, Cao Cao, can he fight?
This is Lu Zhi’s first impression of Cao Cao. Speaking of which, Lu Zhi also gave lectures on military classes in the Imperial Academy several times. Cao Cao was still a student at that time. Although he was more active in thinking and learned military classes well, the gap between theory and practice cannot be made up for by the knowledge in the textbook.
Let a fledgling Cao Cao lead his troops to fight? This is indeed a bit too casual!
"How could it be him?" Lu Zhi was puzzled...
"Isn't it because he gave birth to a good son?" Huangfu Song frowned. "This money was collected by his son Cao Shu for His Majesty. His Majesty will repay his favor. Can't he be kind to Cao Cao, an officer or a fame?"
Huangfu Song was straightforward but not stupid. He went to investigate all the things here.
"Hmph!" Another cold snorted, Huangfu Song showed extreme disdain for Cao Cao. "Others are fighting for their fathers, but Cao Cao is good. He is fighting for his son, a terrible guy, an official child like him? He knows nothing about leading troops to fight! Whenever he thinks of this, I...I..."
Huangfu Song wanted to curse people, but he didn't scold him because he was in the important place of the palace.
Lu Zhi hurriedly raised his hand and planned to pat Huangfu Song on the back to comfort him.
I never thought that at this moment.
"General Huangfu, Lord Lu is here too!"
Cao Song ran over quickly, and he also participated in the court meeting just now. Naturally, he knew that the Northern Expedition of Xianbei was on the string.
As a father, he dare not accept Cao Cao's nature and act recklessly. He didn't give a gift last night, so he would give it to him during the morning court. In any case, he had to ask Huangfu Song to give it up and take care of Cao Cao more!
Hmm...
Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi both turned their heads and looked at Cao Song.
"Sir Cao, is this?"
Before Huangfu Song could finish his words, Cao Song had quickly stuffed a jade pendant into his hand...
"I'm just here to celebrate Lord Huangfu, congratulations, congratulations..."
Cao Song never mentioned Cao Cao's affairs, but only left this sentence, bowed his hand and then turned around and left quickly. The whole process was not enough for ten breaths.
"This..." Lu Zhi looked puzzled...
"Ha!" Huangfu Song sneered, then picked up the jade pendant from his hand, put it in the sun, and muttered. "It's a good jade! Cao Dasiong's move is probably for his son Cao Cao!"
"What do you think of this person Cao Cao? General Huangfu?" Lu Zhi asked.
"What can a playboy who relies on his son to take power and save his life by relying on his bribe?
Huangfu Song waved his hand, looking disdainful.
"I heard that he had only been engaged in official administration in the past, so he could only advise and make decisions. Such a person was useless on the battlefield and followed me, Huangfu Song? He just wanted to get the best, get the benefits, and get the fame! Humph, this general's Northern Expedition Army is not a Buddhist temple or a porridge shop. If you want to get the benefits, you don't even have any door!"
Thinking of this, Huangfu Song narrowed his eyes. His attitude towards Cao Cao was like a word - suppression!
He wants to suppress this playboy who is ignorant and can only rely on his son and me to take power!
