Chapter 637 Eight Dragons Controlling Water
"Hahaha, that's of course! Well? Ling Ming, are you injured?" Ma Chao frowned and asked, "Who did that?"
"Li Jue's subordinate, unknown name." Pang De said with some shame.
"Hmph! Let me avenge you!" As he said that, Ma Chao was about to get on his horse and lead his troops to rush.
"Let me go, your uncle Han has already said that he has retreated from the bandit army. Now that our army has been newly defeated, the bandit army is ready. It is not enough to do anything. Go back to Liangzhou first and then make a long-term plan."
"Why are Daddy timid? I have a gun in my hand and a sword in my waist. Who can stop me in the world? Daddy dares not fight, so let the child fight!"
As soon as he said this, Ma Teng's face couldn't help but become a little dark.
This unlucky son, with so many people here, I don’t know how to give my father some face when he speaks.
Yan Xing was very unhappy, Ma Qiang looked like he was the best in the world, and hummed, "General Ma, there are many powerful generals in Dong's army, Pang Lingming is injured, let alone you, you should take a break, so that Ma Zhengxi can be sad~~"
"You! Do you dare to compete with me?"
"With you? Forget it, outsiders don't know, and they thought I was bullying the child." Yan Xing didn't know why, but he was unhappy when he looked at Ma Chao anyway.
He always feels like he will fight Ma Chao to the death sooner or later.
Ma Teng and Han Sui scolded the two of them together, and Yan Xing naturally did not dare to say anything else, but Ma Chao was still a little reluctant. It was Pang De who was next to him who persuaded him to stop the provocation.
But after such a fuss, Ma Chao was not in the mood to fight Fan Chou, which invisibly allowed the armistice agreement between Han Sui and Fan Chou to be realized.
After this battle between Han Sui and Ma Teng, they gradually retreated to Liangzhou. Zhong Shao, Liu Fan and Ma Yu's three families were all killed except Ma Shui who came out and Song Zheyao's Ma family. Their heads were hung at the gates on the top of the city to show their public.
This made Liu Zhang, who was hiding in Pang Xi's home, tremble.
Pang Xi also knew that Liu Zhang was not a long-term solution here, and thought that Liu Yan was now a herdsman in Yizhou and his third son was always weak, so he thought that he could be a rare person. Not only did he promise Liu Zhang that he would send him back to Yizhou, but he also made an appointment with Liu Zhang as his relatives. Then he began to sell his property and began to bribe Dong Niu and others, hoping to let him go to Yizhou to pass the imperial edict.
Dong Min, Niu Fu and others who gathered in the palace did not have the joy of victory at all. They couldn't help but feel suspicious when they heard Li Li returning to Chang'an describing the secret talks between Fan Chou and Han Sui.
Li Jue looked at the few people, stepped forward and slapped Li Li to the ground, shouting, "General Fan is your uncle? He has made great contributions again, how can you talk nonsense?"
Li Li raised his hand and swore, "This is indeed what my nephew saw with his own eyes? He heard with his own ears? And there were many soldiers present that day, just call him to inquire."
Some people think that Li Li won’t lie if he can check things like this simply.
Doesn’t that mean that Fan Chou is really having a problem?
Fan Chou has many soldiers? And the Su family is about to be born? If there is a war within this time, no one can guarantee what the consequences will be.
"I already know this, I want to step down." Dong Min and Niu Fu looked at each other, leaving Tian Jing behind, and asked the others to step down.
"Shangshu Tian? How should this matter be resolved?" Dong Min asked Tian Jing.
Tian Jing thought for a while, and then said, "The Su family is about to be born? Zhong Shao and others are anxious to start a business. They are also worried that if the Su family gave birth to a young master, they will not show it to others easily? Therefore, there must be no chaos within our army.
Fan Chou dared to let Han Sui go privately? Li and Guo became increasingly arrogant? All of this is because the three of them have too much troops.
I think this is possible. This time, several generals made great contributions. General Dong can be promoted to General Cavalry, General Niu can be promoted to General Guard, and then appointed three generals Li, Guo and Fan as generals in all directions, and Zhang Ji as generals in Zhendong.
Then let the three of them guard the troops outside the camp, and leave the three in Chang'an, exchange power for soldiers, and isolate the three of them.
Everything will be discussed when the young master is born.”
"Then...what if it wasn't the young master?" Dong Min asked suddenly.
Tian Jing clenched his fists and said, "No... it must be the young master!"
Dong Niu and the others looked at each other and understood what to do.
A few days later, Liu Xie looked at Dong Min, Niu Fu and others who wanted to be an official in horror, and then looked at Yang Biao and other people who bowed their heads and said nothing, and could only hide their promises.
Since then, Dong Niu and the other two were divided into General Cavalry and General Guard. Both positions were Bisan Gong and had the power to open the palace. Su then gave birth to Dong Zhuo's son, who was named Dong Yi by Dong Min, and was appointed as the former general, while Li Jue was the right general, Guo Si was the left general, and Fan Chou was the latter general, and the three were also granted the power to open the palace. Suddenly, the power to open the palace in Chang'an City became three three dukes and five generals' mansions, which was so lively.
Although the three officials of these eight departments were united to keep warm, they had no soldiers and their words did not count. Although the other five were led by Dong Niu, among the other three, Li Jue and Guo Si started an alliance and Dong Niu and vaguely fought with each other, while Fan Chou began to win over Li Meng, hoping to protect himself.
Moreover, these people were unwilling to give up their military power. Although they were in Chang'an, they assigned their confidant sons and nephews to serve important positions in the army and did not dare to give up any gaps to others.
Tian Jing imagined that power was exchanged for soldiers to reduce military power and ensured that Dong Niu and his two authoritative plans were completely bankrupt. Because of the nominal equality of power, these people became increasingly disliked each other. In the end, they simply divided Chang'an City into five and each side.
As for the three dukes... this doesn't have their territory.
Just when the internal power struggle in Chang'an was so strong, after Pang Xi used up all his property, he finally got the document with nine seals.
He can go to Yizhou.
And Liu Zhang was even more moved and almost cried.
With the three dukes, five generals' mansions, and one emperor's seal, God knows how difficult it is to run through this process.
You know, because the eight prefectures jointly govern, some people have already jokingly said that the court now has eight dragons governing the water, so nothing can be done!
Without further ado, Pang Xi took Liu Zhang and ran away, running all the way to Hanzhong, and then from Hanzhong to Yizhou.
Liu Yan was so happy to learn that his third son was back because just a few days ago, his third son Liu Mao had passed away due to illness. He was worried that what would happen to Yizhou in a hundred years?
When he learned from Liu Zhang that his eldest and second sons were both dead in Chang'an, and that the whole family was killed, he felt that the world was spinning.
My four sons, this one is left now??
Just when Liu Yan was still unable to accept this painful reality, another bad news came.
A thunder struck Mianzhu City, and some of the prohibited objects he secretly created, such as the emperor's carriage, were all burned by fire.
Liu Yan was stunned for a while. He actually didn't really believe that this was caused by thunder. He believed that it was a secret act by people who were dissatisfied with him in Yizhou.
But whether it is real punishment or someone secretly doing it, this will greatly shake his rule in Yizhou.
When Liu Yan thought of this, he could no longer hold on and spurted out an old blood, his whole face was as shaky as gold paper.
Liu Zhang looked at Liu Yan lying in front of him, and never expected that the first day he came to Yizhou was so exciting!
