After the court session ended, Zhang Rang asked doubtfully in the royal study,"Your Majesty, why did you make Prince Feng Xuantu king?”
He did not quite understand why Liu Hong wanted to make Liu Feng king if he wanted to kill him.
This was the first time Liu Hong had been rewarded as a prince since he ascended the throne.
Liu Hong smiled." Father, I have my reasons for making him king."”
"I'm willing to hear the details."
Zhang Rang hurriedly asked.
Liu Hong said," Firstly, Liu Feng killing the Fuyu King is indeed my greatest achievement since I ascended the throne. I can't deny it personally.
Secondly, making Liu Feng king could greatly motivate the border soldiers and make them do their best to guard the border.
Thirdly, he would make him king and give him all the official positions, including the Xuantu County Governor. The Xuantu County Governor would definitely be anxious.
At this time, as long as his father pressured him again, he would definitely act according to his father's plan.
When Xuantu County Chief gets rid of Liu Feng, I will bring him to justice again.
In this way, not only could he get rid of Liu Feng without anyone knowing, but he could also free up the position of the county governor and sell it for a high price.”
Zhang Rang laughed loudly when he heard this." Brilliant, truly brilliant. Your Majesty's wisdom is far beyond this servant's."”
"Hahahaha! I'll leave this matter to your father.”
Liu Hong laughed loudly and left the royal study.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Zhang Rang lowered his head and accepted the order, but he felt a chill in his heart.
It was said that emperors were heartless. At this moment, he truly experienced it.
Liu Feng was the eldest son of the emperor, but Liu Hong was merciless when it came to scheming.
It was obvious how ruthless he was.
Compared to Liu Hong, he was still far behind.
However, why did His Majesty have to get rid of Liu Feng, the eldest son of the Emperor?
And such an outstanding and heroic eldest son.
Zhang Rang didn't understand. Perhaps, other than Liu Hong, no one else understood the reason.
The moment the reward was announced, the world shook.
This was the first king that Liu Hong had been conferred since he ascended the throne. Although his fief was not large, he had great power.
When the soldiers at the borders heard this news, they were all excited and guarded the borders even more attentively.
As long as they had meritorious deeds, they would definitely be rewarded by His Majesty.
Marquis Xuantu was the best example.
Even though he might not be able to match up to Xuantu Marquis, he could still earn some merit and a small reward.
"Xuantu King, I'm not as good as you."
In the Prefectural Governor's Mansion in Youzhou's Right Beiping, Gongsun Zan looked up at the sky and sighed after hearing the news.
He often led the White Horse Yi Cong to kill Xianbei, Wuhuan, and other races.
He often ventured deep into the territories of the non-humankind, but he had never thought of killing the king of the non-humankind.
Although the Outsiders 'cities were not as sturdy as the Great Han Dynasty's, the Outsider King lived in the Outsider King City and had many soldiers guarding it.
On the way, they had to pass through many non-humankind cities, and they would encounter an immeasurable number of non-humankind armies at any time.
If they went in rashly, they might be surrounded by the alien army.
Although Gongsun Zan had brought along his white horse to kill the non-humankind, it was still far inferior to Liu Feng's battle achievements.
Moreover, the White Horse Righteous Cavalry had three thousand men, while the Blood Red Cavalry only had three hundred and thirty-three.
With this comparison, the difference was obvious.
Of course, Gongsun Zan didn't think that his White Horse Righteousness was inferior to the Blood Red Cavalry. He only admitted that he was inferior to Xuantu King.
At this moment, Liu Feng was thinking about expanding the army.
The number of troops under him was still too little.
However, Gaoxian City did not have a large population. Having five hundred soldiers was already the limit.
After all, not many people from the Xianbei and Goguryeo tribes were willing to stay in Gaoxian City.
Of course, this was excluding the Outsiders who had joined the Great Han Dynasty.
However, Liu Feng did not have a good impression of the foreign races, so he would not recruit them as his subordinates.
The first condition for him to recruit soldiers was that they had to be Han Chinese.
The population of Gaoxian City was not enough to support too many soldiers. If they wanted to expand their forces, they could only start from other counties.
But how could he recruit troops from other counties?
Just as Liu Feng was pondering, the imperial court's imperial edict arrived.
Xuantu king could freely bestow all the positions in Xuantu County, including the county governor.
Liu Feng was a little surprised by this reward. He did not expect that the Han Ling Emperor, Liu Hong, who wanted to kill him, would be so generous.
Wasn't this giving Xuantu County to him for nothing?
However, Liu Feng quickly reacted. This was not Liu Hong's generosity, but Liu Hong's scheme.
Xuantu County had always been under the control of the Xuantu County Governor. His appearance had already threatened his position.
Now that he was conferred the title of Xuantu King and given such great power, the Xuantu County Governor would only be more wary.
If someone tried to sow discord, Xuantu County Governor would kill him at all costs.
"Emperors are heartless."
Liu Feng sighed. The Xuantu King that he was impersonating was Liu Hong's son after all.
He was actually so vicious and merciless, insisting on killing him.
"My lord, Xuantu County Governor's invitation.”
At this moment, a Blood Red Guard walked over and said respectfully.
Liu Feng opened the invitation letter and saw that the Xuantu County Governor had invited him to attend a banquet at the Xuantu County Mansion three days later to celebrate his promotion to the king.
"Celebrate? It's not the bar."
Liu Feng smiled coldly.
However, he still had to go to Xuantu Prefecture.
The Xuantu County Governor wanted to get rid of this threat, but Liu Feng also wanted to get rid of the Xuantu County Governor.
As long as Xuantu County Chief was removed, he could easily control Xuantu County and expand his forces.
From Gaoxian City to Gaogouli City, one day was enough.
Liu Feng was not in a hurry. He would go in two days.
"My lord, there is a person who claims to be Xu Rong.”
At this moment, another Blood Red Guard walked in.
