    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 349

    "Lord Zuoxiang, the Bieyuan is here."

    When Wang Huchen was leaning in the carriage and frowning, the guard's voice sounded outside.

    Wang Huchen tidied up his appearance, then lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage. There was already a servant waiting at the gate of the other garden.

    "Master Zuoxiang, His Royal Highness is in Hongguang Hall, please follow me."

    After the servant stepped forward to salute Wang Huchen respectfully, he turned sideways and made a request.

    "It's time to work."

    Although Wang Huchen is the left chancellor with power over the court, he is still polite to the servants next to the prince, which makes the servants have a good impression of him.

    Just as Wang Huchen was about to enter the Royal Garden under the guidance of his servants, the sound of horseshoes sounded in the distance.

    Wang Huchen stopped and followed the prestige, a group of cavalrymen wearing red cloaks and swords on their waists were galloping around a group of young officials, setting off smoke and dust all over the sky.

    These people wearing red cloaks are the Royal Capital Investigation Department, which is now frightening, and the leading young official is Yan Jing, an official who Wang Huchen once favored.

    It's just that Yan Jing, an official, is in high spirits at the moment, and he is no longer respectful and low-key as he was when he was working under Wang Huchen.

    "Yan Jing has met Lord Zuoxiang."

    Yan Jing galloped his horse more than ten steps away from Wang Huchen and the others, and then suddenly reined in the horse. The horse neighed in pain, and the man stood up.

    Seeing the high-spirited Yan Jing saluting himself on horseback, Zuo Xiang Wang Huchen nodded slightly, and immediately walked towards the other garden without looking back.

    Yan Jing is now a popular person next to the prince, and he is decisive and ruthless in his actions. Wang Huchen is quite dissatisfied with this.

    In the beginning, Wang Huchen often mentioned Yan Jing because he had been with him for so many years.

    But Yan Jingbang got on the prince's thigh, and he no longer took him seriously, so he still went his own way.

    Facing the perverse Yan Jing, Prime Minister Zuo Wang Huchen has now intentionally alienated him.

    Yan Jing saw that Wang Huchen just nodded to him and then turned and walked towards the other garden. An unconcealable gloomy look flashed in his eyes.

    If it weren't for the fact that Wang Huchen is now serving as the left minister and is highly regarded by the prince, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to this old man.

    Yan Jing got off his horse, threw the reins of the horse to an official of the investigation department behind him, and then strode towards the Royal Garden.

    When Yan Jing walked through several exquisite gardens and arrived at the magnificent Hongguang Hall through the long corridor, the left prime minister Wang Huchen, the right prime minister Liu Zhao, the general Liu Zhengshan, and Hu Ziyang had already arrived one step ahead.

    ? Seeing Yan Jing, the hot celebrity next to the prince, enter the hall, Prime Minister Liu Zhao, General Liu Zhengshan and others all nodded slightly to him as a greeting.

    Although Yan Jing is young, he is now a rising star in the court. It is said that enemies should be resolved rather than knotted, so everyone naturally does not want to offend him.

    The two prime ministers from the prime minister's mansion have arrived, but only two of the four generals from the general's mansion have come, and one of them is the newly promoted Hu Ziyang.

    Originally, the Yang family and the Lu family of the military family occupied a place in the general's mansion, but with the downfall of the two families, two places were vacated in the general's mansion.

    There was also an old general, Zhang Yihai, who had accompanied the Fourth Prince on an expedition to pacify the Qinghe Army. Unfortunately, he died of illness while in the army, and what was transported back were only corpses.

    The prince pushed Hu Ziyang, who was loyal to him, to the position of the general with great effort. Even so, there were only two of the four generals left.

    The prince originally thought that after Yue Jinsong, a relative of the emperor, led the army to win the battle, he would also be pushed into the general's mansion.

    It's a pity that Yue Jinsong was too disappointing. Not only did he fail to win the battle, but he also lost a hundred thousand troops and became a prisoner himself.

    All those who could sit in the Hongguang Hall were important officials of the Far Eastern Dynasty who held great power. They had already learned the reason why the prince summoned them on the way here.

    These people have been fighting with each other for countless years, and they are already full of conflicts. Although they are smiling and greeting each other on the surface, they are constantly testing each other's ideas.

    However, the people sitting here are all old foxes. Although they are testing each other, no one will really express their inner thoughts.

    As for the impact of this matter on their own interests, they have long thought of countermeasures.

    "TooYour Highness is here!  "

    Following the loud shout from the waiter at the door, everyone who was chatting and laughing stopped talking one after another, and stood up to greet the prince one after another.

    "My minister pays homage to His Royal Highness¡ª¡ª"

    Surrounded by several servants, the prince stepped into the Hongguang Hall, and Wang Huchen and others knelt down to salute.

    "All ministers, please come up."

    Following the prince's voice, Wang Huchen and others stood up.

    Except for Yan Jing and the middle-aged Hu Ziyang, most of these important ministers who hold great power are already old.

    Although the crown prince is in a bad mood now, it is not good to let these elderly important ministers stand up and talk. He ordered them to give him a seat, and Wang Huchen and others thanked him again.

    After Wang Huchen and the others sat down again, the prince's eyes wandered around the crowd before he started talking.

    "The urgent battle report came from the front line. The army led by Yue Jinsong was defeated in the battle with the bandit army. Almost the whole army was wiped out. Now the bandit army has occupied most of Luyang Province, and the bandit army is arrogant.  ?¡±

    The prince didn't beat around the bush, but directly told the story of his defeat in public.

    Wang Huchen and others naturally have their own sources of news, so they knew about it a long time ago, and they didn't seem too surprised.

    "Although the bandit army is lucky enough to win a game, I am afraid it will be seriously injured. Your Highness does not need to worry, just send another army to conquer."

    ?Compared to the frowning crown prince, the gray-haired Prime Minister Liu Zhao, who has gone through countless ups and downs, seems calm and relaxed.

    After hearing this, General Hu Ziyang couldn't help but frowned, cursing inwardly, speaking lightly.

    The 100,000 troops led by Yue Jinsong were wiped out, which shows that the strength of Chen Ziang's Qinghe Army has exceeded imagination.

    If they send another large army to conquer, they will definitely need more troops.

    Hu Ziyang is now also serving as the head coach of the Imperial Guard, although he is rectifying and expanding the Imperial Guard according to the order of the prince.

    Although the Imperial Guard under Hu Ziyang's charge has now expanded to 180,000 people, after countless deployments, there are only 50,000 to 60,000 real veterans, and the rest are recruits who have been recruited recently, and they are unbearable to fight.

    Pulling these troops to the battlefield to fight those Qinghe troops who have experienced countless battles is completely like meat buns beating dogs, and there will be no return.

    What's more, their imperial guards are also responsible for guarding the royal capital and the Gyeonggi Province area, so they cannot be adjusted arbitrarily.

    "I don't know which troop the right minister thinks it would be better to dispatch to conquer the bandit army?" the prince asked.

    Prime Minister You turned his attention to Hu Ziyang: "General Hu has nearly 200,000 imperial guards under his command. If you raise troops for a thousand days and use them for a short period of time, I can just look at the imperial guards."

    "I don't know the right minister. Most of the imperial guards are newly recruited soldiers. It may take some time before they can go to battle to kill the enemy" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com  com
