Vol 8 Chapter 287: Letter

"Your Majesty, You Chang has been guarding the frontiers of the country over the years. There is no credit and hard work. Why should the Youchang tribe be killed? Such punishment is really too much." Sima Lang stood in the study room of the emperor, red. With a face, he shouted at the Emperor Xian.
The immortal emperor looked at Sima Lang and said, "Oh, Sima Aiqing means that as long as he is involved with the state, he can disrespect commands and imperial decree? I gave him the immortal decree, and Su Xiong also took it. In his face, he had seen Xianzhi, but how did he do it, don’t you know? In that case, he even dared not to hand over the Eagle Pan Pass. What did he want to do? You don’t know what kind of place Panshan is. Once there is something wrong with Yingpanshan, there will be police here in Xiandu. In this case, you should be very clear that there is nothing except beheading him. Another way."
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to know that those troops all came from there, why don't the ministers know." He Tuizhi started to question the Emperor at this time. He didn't expect that the Emperor was silent. How could he not be surprised that tens of thousands of troops were created in one go.
Immortal Emperor looked at He Tuizhi and Sima Lang, and said in a deep voice: "Didn't you ask me to form a pro-army? Now that Teng has completed the formation of a pro-army, why? Do the two Aiqings have any opinions?"
He Tuizhi and Sima Lang were speechless with a word from Emperor Xiandi, because they originally thought that Emperor Xian could not form a pro-army at all, but they did not expect that the Emperor actually formed a pro-army. , And tens of thousands of pro-armies were formed at once. With such an army in hand, they would be even more difficult when they wanted to check and balance the Immortal Emperor on the court in the future, so the two were so anxious. , But they have no way to take the Immortal Emperor, after all, this is what they asked the Immortal Emperor to do before.
Xiandi looked at the two and smiled slightly: "Two Aiqings, is there anything else? If there is nothing else, then go back first." He Tuizhi and Sima Lang looked at each other. After that, they all bowed to the immortal emperor, and said in a deep voice: "The minister retire." After speaking, he left the immortal emperor's study.
When the two of them left, the emperor couldn’t help laughing. Today is really fun. He hasn’t been so happy in the battle with He Tuizhi and Sima Lang for a long time. Hahaha, it’s really too hidden. Up.
At this time, He Tuizhi and Sima Lang also left the fairy palace, and the two of them went directly to He Tuizhi’s home. At this time, He Tuizhi’s home also gathered a lot of people, and they were all preparing to listen to He. With the news of Rei Zhi and Sima Lang, as soon as they saw the two return, those people immediately gathered around. He Tuizhi glanced at the people, and then said: "Go in and say." Those people followed He Retreat. It reached the living room of the He family.
After everyone sat down in the living room, He Tuizhi glanced at them, and then said: "Everyone, You Chang's affairs, I am afraid that there is no way. He is the first to resist, so no one can help him. His family begged, because according to my fairy court law, he was going to be punishable by the three clans, so I could not intercede for him with the right."
The people in the living room calmed down immediately. At this moment, there was a cry of crying. Everyone saw that it was a general who was crying. The general has a very good relationship with You Chang. Now he knows about You Chang. After being killed, how could he not be sad, so he cried.
He Tuizhi frowned and was reprimanding. At this moment, a family member ran in from the door, and then quickly handed a letter to He Tuizi. He Tuizhi frowned, and then swayed. He waved his hand and told the family to retreat, and then he opened the letter. After he opened the letter and read the content of the letter, his expression couldn't help but change, and then he got up suddenly. Then he said loudly: "Come on, come on."
A servant at the door ran in immediately, why not retreat without waiting for him to salute, and said to the servant: "Where is the one who sent this letter back? Man? Let him come to see me."
The servant immediately said: "Yes, sir." After speaking, he ran out, and soon led a man of dust and dirt into the living room. Without waiting for the man to salute, he looked at the humanity: "You said , What is going on, is it true that this letter is saying? Did you see the troops returning to their defense zone with your own eyes?"
The man looked a little nervous when he saw He retreat, but he still said, "Yes, sir, I saw the army return to their defense zone with my own eyes. It was the army that left before. I also inquired about it. , They said that there was already an immortal emperor’s army, who had moved into the border defense area with the decree of the immortal, and had taken over their defense area completely.
He Tuizhi's face was extremely ugly, and then he waved his hand, and he exited the room. He Tuizhi took a deep breath after those left, and then he said: "Let’s take a look, there’s a new situation. It may be worse than we thought."
After he finished speaking, he gave the letter to Sima Lang. After receiving the letter, Sima Lang took a look, his expression also changed. He looked at He Tuizhi and said, "Is this true?" Nodded, and then said: "Did you hear what I asked just now? Brother Sima, I will trouble you next. You immediately send someone to the 13th Route Army, ask them all and see where they are. See how many troops have returned."
Sima Lang nodded, then gave the letter to the person next to him, and then walked quickly out of the living room, called his servant outside the door, and confessed a few words in his ear. Then he returned to the living room.
At this time, the letter had already been circulated in the living room, so everyone who saw this letter felt that it was impossible, but when they thought of what He Tuizhi asked his servant before, they were all silent again. Obviously this matter is true.
When Sima Lang returned to the living room, all the people in the living room were silent. No one spoke. For a long time, after everyone had read the letter, He Tuizhi looked at the people and said: "The news from the letter Everyone knows that if you are with you, let’s go back first, but after you go back, you must immediately use your strength to check and see how many troops your Majesty actually has, and where these troops came from. , We must figure out this matter."
Everyone responded, and then He Tuzhi said solemnly: "Okay, guys, please go back." The people didn't say anything, they saluted Sima Lang, then turned and left.
After these people went back, they immediately mobilized their power to investigate with all their strength, to see how many troops there are in the hands of the Emperor, and the power of these people is not small. When they check carefully, they will immediately I checked it out, and now the 20 defense zones on the border have all been controlled by the immortal emperor’s pro-army troops, and the number of these pro-army troops is very large, ranging from more than 30,000 to more than 50,000. Together, the number of troops is close to one million, which is really surprising.
And they quickly found out that those troops came from there, and those troops were all formed by those sects, but those sects were formed by the order of the immortal emperor. These, for a while, I really don't know what to say.
He Tuizhi and Sima Lang once called the officials in the court to He Tuizhi’s house. After these people arrived, He Tuizhi invited them to the living room. After they sat down, He Tuizhi watched. He said to everyone: "I think everyone has heard the latest news. His Majesty secretly cooperated with those sects and formed a million army, a million army, everyone should know what this concept is. Now these army They are all set up, and they are all the pro-army of the emperor. I think we can’t do anything even if we want to change. After all, they are pro-army of the emperor and we have no way to intervene. Let’s talk about what we should do next. ."
Everyone was silent for a while, then Sima Lang lightly sighed and said: "This matter, it seems that your Majesty has already prepared, not a day or two, everyone can still remember that your Majesty had to divide the defense line into 20 defense zones, and Each defense zone was divided into different sizes. At that time, we had discussions to allow your Majesty to agree to form an army. In the end, all the defense lines were demarcated. At that time, we did not find any problems. But now, everyone is thinking about the defense zones. , Can you find some problems?"
When Sima Lang said this, everyone recalled the area of ​​those defense areas. After a while, a general suddenly said: "Tilling fields, those defense areas have a part of the plain land generation, and those places can be used for farming. Is it your majesty? Want those troops to farm the fields? Impossible?"
He Tuizhi said with an ugly face: "Why is it impossible, it is very possible, otherwise, can your majesty's inner palace be able to raise so many troops? Those people from the sect, although they are now taking refuge in your majesty, are willing Forming an army for your Majesty, but if they are allowed to keep the army by themselves, they will definitely be unwilling, and Your Majesty can't use the money to support them, so farming is the only way."
Everyone was silent for a while. If they really retreat from what they said, and those troops start to farm, then the situation will completely change. Not only will the immortal emperor not spend too much money on those troops in the future, but on the contrary. A large amount of food can be collected from those troops, so that the strength of the immortal emperor will only become stronger and stronger, which is definitely not a good thing for He Tuzhi and them.
He Tuizhi and the others have always wanted to control the power of the Immortal Emperor over the years, so they have not done anything to weaken the power of the Immortal Emperor in these years. Because of this, they can say that they have already offended the Immortal Emperor. If the Emperor Immortal had a day of turning over, they would definitely not be let go, so they are the ones who most do not want the Emperor Immortal to be in power again.
Strictly speaking, He Tuizhi and the others should be regarded as betraying the emperor. The reason why they had so much power at the beginning, and they can even slowly raise the emperor to the sky, is because the emperor was very first at first. They trusted them because the immortal emperor gave them so much power, but after they got the power, they began to think about slowly overhead the immortal emperor and weaken the power of the immortal emperor. So really speaking, they were betrayed. After the immortal emperor, if the immortal emperor really regained power, then the immortal emperor would definitely not let them go.
