C592 The Unreconciled Ji Chang
At this time, Ying Zheng stepped out and said: "Right now, what's important is not to pursue the matter, but to think of a way to deal with the eight hundred thousand Steel Cavalry. It's over we let them break our Youzhou!"2
The officials also nodded in agreement. Right now, the Central Plains was constantly in turmoil, so once Youzhou was lost, not only would the Youzhou be lost, the other Barbarian races would also have murderous intentions.
Xuanyuan, Emperor of Human looked at Shen Muqing and said, "Ninth Brother, what do you think?"
Everyone looked at Shen Muqing. At this moment, only Shen Muqing was able to calm them down. That calm face and smile, Shen Muqing had lived up to everyone's expectations, and he didn't show any anxious expression on his face.
He calmly replied, "Imperial Father, this child feels that this matter should not be rushed. There are clouds in the sky, and people know themselves and the enemy. The Imperial Court has received only a few messages, and they do not know anything about the matters on the front lines.
Yang Guang frowned and said, "Then what are we waiting for? It will be too late when we wait for the eight hundred thousand Steel Cavalry to march. This King thinks that we should dispatch our troops to that place as soon as possible! "
Shen Muqing looked at Yang Guang as if he was looking at an idiot: "From where? Where should I transfer the food? When can we get there? "
Yang Guang said angrily, "Then we can't just sit and wait for death, right?"
Shen Muqing said confidently: "This king once said, with Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, although we cannot expel the Huns, we can still preserve our Youzhou. According to Fourth Brother, Gongsun Zan may be excluded, and this son wishes for a decree."
The Human Emperor asked, "What do you wish for?"
He heard Shen Muqing say: "Gongsun Zan has a resolute character, and is invincible on the battlefield. He might not be Liu Yu's match in the government, and might not be suppressed. In this kind of situation, if Gongsun Zan wants to preserve his Youzhou, he might be restricted by Liu Yu, and at that time Hua Xia will be in danger."
Hearing this, the Human Emperor immediately understood: "I understand what you mean, Wei Zhongxian, now prepare an imperial edict for me. As long as Gongsun Zan can drive out the Huns and protect the Youzhou, he can be forgiven for all his crimes and won't be investigated."
Shen Muqing said solemnly, "This son thanks Imperial Father."
The Human Emperor waved his hand, "Why do you need to thank me? This is what you want for the sake of our Youzhou, we should reward you handsomely. "
These words were said very generously, otherwise, a farce would have occurred in the imperial court. The civil and military officials were actually extremely convinced of the Human Emperor's decision, and if it wasn't for Shen Muqing's recommendation of a talent like Gongsun Zan, such a good situation would not have happened in Youzhou.
The Youzhou matter came to an end, and everyone understood that this was only the calm before the storm. When the military report from Youzhou came, everyone finally knew that something big was going to happen, and it was proven that the assailant was Hun King.
It didn't matter if it was Ji Chang or Yang Guang, neither of them could escape the charge. At the very least, it was a crime that no one knew of.
He had to remain calm even though he had been in the field for dozens of years. At this moment, he stole a glance at Shen Muqing and said: "Reporting to royal father, Ninth Brother's understanding of the killing fields is better than mine, but the matters of Liangzhou and Youzhou are different. This son requests royal father to be clear-sighted and give Liu Yu a chance."
The officials did not know what Ji Chang was going to do, but it was certain that he was going to fight again. As a member of the Cabinet, Ji Chang was the reason why the princes were afraid of him.
