Four hundred and sixtieth chapters red face and white face

"The emperor turns danger into safety. When he is on the way to Yancheng, the war in the northern border is also reversed. It is really a festive event. The subordinate Liu Fu dares to respect the emperor with a glass!" The wine was in full swing, and Liu Fu stood with the glass.

"You are the King of Yan, right?" Although Zhao Heng was a little drunk, his mind still had a hint of clarity.

"That's right." Liu Fu bowed.

Zhao Heng looked at Liu Fu for a while and said, "The position of King Fu of the Prince's Mansion has always been designated by the court. Since the King of Yan chose you as King Fu, I will no longer interfere. You should perform your duties conscientiously and live up to the entrustedness of King Yan."

When Liu Fu heard this, a strange look flashed in his eyes, "The lower official is obeying the emperor's teachings."

Zhao Xu drank and pretended not to hear it.

Neither his father nor the second prince are easy-to-have.

The second prince separated his relationship with Zhao Heng every sentence.

And his father dug up a corner in front of him.

His words were for Liu Fu, and in fact, they were for the officials and generals who were sitting there again.

What I mean is that although you are under the command of the King of Yan, you are the ministers of Da Song after all.

The emperor has the right to be promoted and demoted.

It is tantamount to reminding everyone that the one who really wants to be loyal to him is Emperor Dasong.

"The last general also wishes the emperor a cup." Zhongli stood up.

When Zhao Heng saw this, his smile became stronger and he thought his words had worked.

But the next moment, he changed his face.

Zhongli drank all the wine in his glass and threw it to the ground, making a crisp "splash".

Zhao Heng was frightened, and his face suddenly changed. He didn't know why Zhongli suddenly had such an abnormal movement.

Zhongli said loudly with anger on his face: "Your Majesty, the last toast is to respect the emperor. Throwing the wine glass is to speak out for His Highness King Yan!"

"Zhongli, the emperor is in front of you, how can you be so rude? The person from Zhongli is drunk and send him back."

The two guards stepped forward and pushed Zhongli out, but were thrown away by Zhongli. He continued, "Your Highness, even if you killed the head of the general today, the last general will say this to the emperor today."

Zhao Xu wanted to scold him again, but was stopped by Zhao Heng. He said, "I want to hear the whole story. What happened?"

"The emperor didn't know anything. Just a few days ago, an army falsely passed an imperial edict, pretended to be an imperial guard, and tried to break into Yan Pass and cooperate with the Beidi army who came from the sea." Zhongli raised his voice.

Other generals and officials who sat down again nodded.

"Fake the imperial edict? I pretend to be an imperial guard?" Zhao Heng frowned and looked at Zhao Xu, "King Yan, is this really the case?"

"Return to my father, the Zhongli Commander didn't say anything false." Zhao Xu pretended to be sad at this time.

Then he gave Xu Lie a look and Xu Lie left.

When he came back, he was holding a fake imperial edict in his hand, and two more soldiers pushed a baggage cart to the yard.

"Please see, Father!" Zhao Xu presented the imperial edict.

Zhao Heng glanced at the eyes and his face became extremely embarrassed.

Zhao Xu also ordered the soldiers to show the mezzanine of the baggage truck to Zhao Heng, and at the same time told the whole story of the fake imperial guards.

"What do you mean is that this matter is still caused by Yuan Li colluding with Bei Di?" Zhao Heng felt an evil fire reaching his forehead.

Zhao Xu took Zhuo Ge's confession from Xu Lie and presented it to Zhao Heng.

This confession is fake, Zhuo Ge's mouth is very hard.

But he said it had nothing to do with whether he said it or not. The soldier forced his finger to press his finger on the crime.

Zhao Heng continued to read and held the confession and trembled slightly.

Zhao Xu took the opportunity to indignate, "This Zhuo Ge is the deputy commander of the Hei Iron Guard of Beidi. He often goes in and out of Fanyang during this period to plan this matter with Yuan Li. If it weren't for the Ulaanba's army to be buried at sea this time, as long as the Beidi army arrives in the south city, these dead soldiers should have taken the city gate together."

After pausing, he said sadly: "If this is the case, Yanzhou is gone now, and the sons will naturally be unable to save their father."

"A traitor!" Zhao Heng threw the confession to the ground.

The words of the King of Yan shocked him and broke out in a cold sweat.

As the King of Yan said, if Yuan Li's plan was successful, the King of Yan would not have the strength to save him.

Then he is afraid he has been captured by Beidi now.

Moreover, Yuan Li could not have known that the King of Yan knew about him being trapped in Xiancheng.

Yuan Li still did this, which was like watching him die!

How could he not be angry?

During the last Yanguan Incident, the King of Yan suppressed it in time.

He could not empathize with it, and considered the balance of Yanzhou, so he opened his mouth to Yuan Li.

However, although there was no proof at that time, he also felt that the King of Yan would not be aimless.

So when Yuan Li returned to Yanzhou, he specifically reminded Yuan Li and gave him the four words "loyalty to the emperor and serve the country".

It seems that Yuan Li did not repent at all, but became even worse.

The last time the King of Yan impeached Yuan Li to rebel was basically true.

"Your Majesty, now you know why the Uncle Yan is so angry, right?" Zhongli continued.

Liu Fu also said: "Bei Di Qiushou, Yanguan Incident, Jinzhou Battle, and the Northern Expedition has been setback. Your Highness not only saved the emperor, but also changed the declining trend of the Northern Expedition. It can be seen that Your Highness is really loyal to Da Song, and in these four things, Yuan Like once put in a tiny bit of strength."

He sighed, "Not only did he fail to succeed, but he colluded with enemies and treasoned the country twice. How could his Yuan family occupy the three southern counties of Yanzhou?"

"That's right!" Zhongli shouted, "Although His Highness, the last time he rewarded the King of Yan, was deeply grateful to the emperor, but the last generals were indignant. Why did Yuan Li join the enemy and sell the country and instead settle in the richest southern three counties, while His Highness of Yan only had two barren lands, Pingjun and Liaojun?"

"yes."

"It's really unreasonable."

"His Highness of the King of Yan has suffered a lot of grievances."

"If Yanzhou governs Yanzhou, how can the Yuan family cause chaos many times?"

“…”

Other generals and officials were talking at this time and turned their attention to Zhao Heng from time to time.

"Ahem... Actually, I also wanted to hand over the entire Yanzhou to the King of Yan at that time, but if there are ministers in the court to stop me, I am powerless." Zhao Heng was stared at by everyone and felt guilty.

After all, he was also the initiator in this matter.

Looking at Zhao Xu, he said, "King Yan, you have indeed been wronged during this period. This time you saved me and defeated the Northern Di's plan to invade Yan Pass. This is an unparalleled merit. It is only a great matter to reward the vassal of the land. I need to go back to Jinling to discuss with the ministers."

After a long time of trouble, he actually understood the meaning of the generals and officials under the King of Yan.

They wanted him to expel the Yuan family from Yanzhou and let Yanzhou take charge of the entire Yanzhou.

"Father, don't listen to their nonsense. My sons dare not criticize the court. However, the people in Yanzhou are tough, so the officials and generals under my sons are naturally frivolous, and sometimes my sons cannot restrain them." Zhao Xu looked helpless.

"Oh? Hehe..." This sentence fell into Zhao Heng's ears, and his face turned pale.

Zhao Xu looked harmless, but why did he feel that the threatening meaning of this sentence?

His eyes swept around the officials with a gloomy face and a strange expression. He tightened his heart and said, "I am praising the emperor. In fact, why should I discuss with the ministers? The King of Yan obeys the order. From now on, all the seven counties in Yanzhou will be included in your fiefdom. You should be diligent, protect the territory, and not forget the responsibility of the royal family."

"Father, don't listen to their nonsense!" Zhao Heng looked flattered and refused repeatedly.

Zhao Heng said seriously: "This is an imperial edict, why don't you push it around? You still don't accept the edict."

Zhao Xu glared at the generals and officials fiercely, and then he knelt down unwillingly to accept the order.

It seems that all this has nothing to do with me.
