"Beloved ministers, rise!" Liu Chan walked out of the carriage majestically and stood in the carriage, waving his hand and shouting.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" He climbed up from the ground like a tsunami.
At this moment, Wei Zhongxian walked over and said to Liu Chan softly," Your Majesty, the spies I set up have already obtained some results. Li Yan's son has long been secretly colluding with Wu. I'm afraid Jiang Prefecture is unstable. Your Majesty, please quickly make a judgment!"”
"This Li Yan really wants to rebel? Why aren't you sending people to Jiang Prefecture to arrest Li Feng?”Liu Chan said.
"Your Majesty, that Li Feng did not openly rebel. It is not the time to capture him now. It would be better for me to increase the manpower to collect evidence of his rebellion.”Wei Zhongxian bowed and cupped his fists.
"Then keep Li Yan under close surveillance. Did he participate in his son's rebellion?”
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, Li Yan is not unaware of his son's matter. However, I have already monitored him. His every move cannot escape my grasp.”
Liu Chan nodded in approval. He thought to himself that Jiang Prefecture was the place closest to Dongwu. If Li Feng's rebellion succeeded, the consequences would be unimaginable. That was because it was also an important place for the imperial court to pay tribute and taxes. It was also the place with the most population. It could not be lost.
He thought of Di Renjie, and now he had to promote his official position. Thus, he dictated the imperial edict and promoted Di Renjie to the governor of Jiang Prefecture. This was his newly established official position, which was used to manage the military forces of the Jiang Prefecture court.
According to Wei Zhongxian's intelligence, Li Feng still had 50,000 troops, most of which were naval forces. If he rebelled, Shu Han would not have any warships to guard against Wu.
The most important thing was how deep Li Feng and Sun Quan were colluding, how much power Sun Quan had in Shu, and how many agents he had planted. This was what Liu Chan wanted to know the most, and it was also what he had instructed Wei Zhongxian to do next.
After returning to the palace, Liu Chan put aside the idea of dissolving the Prime Minister's residence. He still needed to use Zhuge Liang's Jingzhou faction to balance Li Yan and the other local factions.
"Ding! The system has detected the host's brilliant political wisdom and has specially rewarded him with a Summoning Card.”
"Summon immediately." Liu Chan said.
"Congratulations, host. You have been summoned to the Qing Dynasty Recovery Platform. The Navy General Shi Lang is currently an ordinary deputy general under the Governor of Jiangzhou, Li Feng. The host can find someone to contact him.”
Shi Lang! Liu Chan was overjoyed. Right now, he was lacking a general who understood water warfare.
Liu Chan immediately ordered Wei Zhongxian to send someone to contact Shi Lang.
Huang Hao walked in. He was jealous that Wei Zhongxian had stolen his limelight and was prepared to falsely accuse Wei Zhongxian of rebellion.
"Your Majesty, Wei Zhongxian secretly dispatched the Imperial Guards to move around during Your Majesty's Northern Expedition. It seems that he has ulterior motives.”Huang Hao said with a sinister expression.
"That was the task I assigned to him. You are the one who has ulterior motives and is sinister and vicious. Wei Zhongxian, hand this eunuch to the Prime Minister to deal with.”Liu Chan shouted angrily.
Wei Zhongxian had heard everything clearly from outside the door, and he immediately led his men to carry Huang Hao away like an eagle catching a chick.
Huang Hao was a treacherous official of Shu Country. In history, he was once favored by Liu Chan, causing the Shu Han Dynasty to be abandoned. He was the first country to be destroyed.
Liu Chan searched through Liu Chan's memories and found out that Zhuge Liang hated Huang Hao deeply. He had impeached him many times for causing chaos in the government.
Now that he had handed Huang Hao over to Zhuge Liang, firstly, he could appease the Jing State faction so that they could focus on dealing with the local factions in the Imperial Court. Secondly, he could also establish his prestige for the eunuchs in the palace.
After Huang Hao was sent to the Prime Minister's Estate, he was quickly brought to justice. The current Prime Minister's Estate was no longer as busy as before. After Liu Chan moved all the administrative functions of the Prime Minister's Estate to the palace, there were no more people there. The wind in the court was leaning towards Liu Chan.
The intelligence agency established by Wei Zhongxian was very efficient. He had placed spies in all the yamen, the founding nobles, and the important officials in the capital. There were even spies at the market entrance to record the prices of goods every day.
Liu Chan was very satisfied. This information was enough for him to take control of the imperial court. As for Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan had given him the order to rest.
He thought that Zhuge Liang's greatest use now was his diplomatic function. If you want to get something, you must first give it.
Liu Chan decided to send Zhuge Liang as an envoy to Wu to pretend that the two countries were at peace.
Ever since the 500,000 Shu troops were wiped out by Lu Xun in the Battle of Yiling, the two countries had no contact with each other. It had been five years since then, and Sun Quan's ambition to become emperor was clear.
Liu Chan, who had grown up in the 21st century, naturally understood the strategy of not being attacked from both sides. It would be best if he could stabilize Dongwu. At the very least, he could intimidate Cao Cao. Sun Quan also needed this kind of alliance, even if it was only an alliance in name, even if it was not harmonious on the surface.
