Zheng Qian glanced at Han Hu, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and continued: "After Sima Hua stabilized the interior, he attacked from east to west to defeat the remnants of the Anle Sect, and won a great victory. Now he has occupied most of Dongyang Prefecture! He has more than Once I told my subordinates that the Lingyue Dynasty has exhausted its strength, and if a man is born in troubled times, he should create his own hegemony!"

He picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip before continuing: "Sima Hua's wolf ambition is obvious! He even proclaimed himself 'Dongyang Marquis', and carried out extensive construction work to build a temple for Sun Che, the founding emperor of the Lingyue Dynasty, to represent the emperor. Sacrifice to heaven and earth, travel in a vehicle with a yellow canopy, with Imperial Guards in front to clear the way, and Yulin Army to guard behind, completely treating yourself as the emperor, even more majestic than when you go out, Grand Master!"

Han Hu trembled when he heard this, and unconsciously stuck out his tongue, thinking: "Damn it! I just hit the horse's hoof!"

Han Ba ​​was so angry that he trembled all over and cursed loudly: "You Sima Hua! You dare to call yourself emperor, I really turned against you! Zheng Qian!"

"My subordinate is here!"

"After the meeting, you should plan quickly and come up with a plan within three days to accuse the world of Sima Hua's crimes and send a large army to wipe out his lair. I will cut him into pieces as a warning!"

It was so quiet in the hall that you could hear a pin drop.

After Han Ba ​​calmed down his anger, he then asked: "Strategist! Who is the third henchman?"

Zheng Qian perked up and said loudly: "I'd like to report to the Grand Master! The third personal enemy is Sun Yu, the cousin of the late Emperor Sun Hong and the lord of Leimingzhou Prefecture. In April last year, we issued an edict to recall him to the court. The position of Taifu is a long one, but the land is full of wars and chaos, and the imperial edict has not been delivered yet!"

Han Ba ​​asked in surprise: "I know this Sun Yu. Although he is also a true relative of the emperor, he is just a weak scholar with no power. What threat can he pose to me? You are a bit too much. Are you sensitive?"

Zheng Qian straightened his face and shook his head: "Otherwise! Leimingzhou is located in a remote place in the southwest. There are so many barbarian tribes in the state, and riots often occur. Therefore, the military expenses are very huge. In the past, the imperial court would allocate money from the tax bank every year. Twenty million taels of silver were used to subsidize Leimingzhou. Now there are wars in every state capital, and transportation and supplies are completely interrupted, so Leimingzhou is very poor."

Han Ba ​​laughed and interrupted him: "Right now, among the sixteen states in the entire continent, which state is not extremely poor? I'm afraid Lei Mingzhou can hardly even lift the pot? We are the only one here who has enough food and clothing! We have enough food and clothing! The truth is that the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. Since he has no money, how can he recruit soldiers and horses? Sun Yu is also a scholar. He has neither money nor soldiers. What tricks can he play? This can also become a serious problem for me? It’s too alarmist!”

Zheng Qian said with a serious look: "Just because he has no money or soldiers, it doesn't mean others don't!"

"How do you say that?" Han Ba ​​was suddenly startled.

"As the leader of a state, how noble is Sun Yu's status? But he wears rags, wears straw sandals, eats only one meal a day, and he also relaxes policies, reduces taxes, opens foreign trade markets, and trades with barbarians , and developed the local salt industry and iron mines. Now Leimingzhou is full of rice and has plenty of food and clothing, so he is deeply supported by the local people!"

Han Ba's brows gradually wrinkled, and his expression began to become serious.

Zheng Qian continued: "As a result, people from five or six nearby states, including Yundian, Banner, and Chuanzhou, entered Leiming Continent. There were no less than one million people. Sun Yu took them all in and comforted them. These people were in Leiming Continent. The population of Leimingzhou has greatly increased due to the peaceful and contented life in Leimingzhou. Coupled with the mining of iron ore, it now needs people and weapons."

Han Ba ​​frowned and said, "It seems like this Sun Yu is indeed a bit of a threat!"

"More than a little? He is the biggest threat among the three!"

"How can I see it?"

Zheng Qian's tone changed and he said loudly: "The generals from various states south of Dongshan Pass believe that the current emperor Sun Hai is young and incompetent, and he is under your control. The mountains are high and the rivers are far away. No one knows whether he is alive or dead now." Death, and Sun Yu is the most talented person among the royal family named Sun, and they are all ready to support him as emperor!"

Han Ba ​​was immediately startled, his eyes widened, and he asked nervously: "This... what do the princes from all over the world think?"

Zheng Qian sighed softly and said: "Alas! Everyone else is okay, but the most abominable one is Shen Tu Bao! He wrote to his cousin Shen Tu Xiongfeng, saying that the current nominal emperor Sun Hai is not of royal blood. He insisted that Sun Hai was not Sun Hong's biological son. Now that the entire court was under the control of Han Ba, they could not be trusted at all! He also suggested that the two families jointly send troops to guard the dangerous points, besiege Leiyue City, and cut off everything in the capital. Material transportation will become chaotic over time. Then if we support Sun Yu as emperor, the world will be at peace! He also mentioned the assassination of Shentu Huayu back then, trying to arouse Shentu Xiongfeng's anger!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the generals in the room couldn't help but whisper, and they all seemed to ignore Han Ba's threats.

If even the emperor is fake, then who are we working so hard for? Aren’t even our own official positions unfair? What is the difference between this and those poor authors? They stayed up all night and spent all their time coding. All the words that came out were donated to pirated websites, and it was all in vain!

This was indeed Han Ba's fatal injury. He began to feel a little panicked and regretted that he forced the queen to death and poisoned Sun Ming a little too hastily. Didn't he block his own escape route? "

He first glanced at Zheng Qian with a complaining look, rolled his eyes several times, then slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Silence! The current emperor was brought up by this grand master. Those elders in the court All of them can prove it, and you must not discuss this matter arbitrarily in the future. If anyone spreads rumors to confuse the public, the Nine Clan will be punished!"

The generals in the audience were all silent, but the expressions on their faces said everything: they were skeptical about the authenticity of the emperor.

"Zheng Qian, please continue!"

In Han Ba's panic, he even forgot the title "strategist", which made Zheng Qian feel a shiver in his heart!

He continued calmly: "Shen Tu Xiongfeng also had ulterior motives. He clearly wanted to proclaim himself emperor, but he pretended to be a loyal minister. He wrote back and said that Emperor Sun Hai has been smart and talented since he was a child. The current situation is that Han Ba Taking advantage of the country's crisis, using violence to suppress civil and military officials, and holding the emperor to order the princes, this is just a small bad luck for the Lingyue Dynasty! You actually slandered the current emperor as not of royal blood, which is treason. As for Shentu It was not the late emperor’s intention that Huayu was killed back then. I just want to defeat King Niqin and eliminate the traitor Han Ba. I don’t care about anything else!"

Han Ba ​​suddenly smiled brightly again, nodding his head and saying: "This Shen Tu Xiongfeng is a sensible man! It makes sense! Of course the emperor is the legitimate son of the late emperor, how could it be false? You continue!"

Zheng Qian secretly sneered in his heart. He was so happy that he could take advantage of the opportunity to analyze the situation and scold Han Ba. It was quite refreshing!

He coughed twice, cleared his throat, and continued: "As for supporting Sun Yu as emperor, Liu Xie was the one who opposed the most strongly. He said: 'We originally joined forces to attack Han Ba. The reason why we responded in groups is because That's because righteousness is on our side! Now the emperor is only controlled by the treacherous Han Ba, and he is not an unscrupulous emperor. Abandoning him is disloyal! Can the emperor be changed at will? The world can be changed. Who can accept it? If you insist on supporting Sun Yu, then I will not play with you. I will never betray the current emperor!' After saying this, Liu Xie left!"

"Well said! That makes sense!"
