In the past few days, the situation in Jizhou had changed dramatically.
Zhang Ning and Zhang Bao led the Yellow Turban troops to attack Quyang and plunder the nearby counties.
Many great clans in Jizhou were slaughtered.
In fact, a family of a hundred people died overnight.
Zhao Feng, who was stationed in Julu, did not make any moves.
As for the great clans of Jizhou, some of them who were officials in Luoyang took the opportunity to cry in the court.
"Your Majesty, the Zhao Clan of Changshan was supposed to pacify the Yellow Turbans for Your Majesty, but Zhao Feng, as the Northern Lieutenant General, allowed the Yellow Turbans to wreak havoc in Jizhou. There are about a hundred people in my clan, and none of them survived!”
"Your Majesty, Zhao Feng is the governor of Jizhou, but he has done nothing. Please dismiss Zhao Feng!”
"I, second the motion!"
"I, second the motion!"
The ministers of the imperial court, including those from Jizhou and those who were married to some aristocratic families in Jizhou, all kowtowed to the emperor.
It was as if Zhao Feng's crimes were too numerous to be recorded.
Liu Hong sighed in his heart.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion had left him in a terrible state.
Moreover, they couldn't afford to offend these great clans.
When the Great Han Dynasty was first established, it had received the support of these great clans.
If it weren't for the Yellow Turban, he would never have lifted the ban.
Liu Hong's eyes darkened as he looked at the officials in the hall.
"Since everyone feels that Zhao Feng is guilty, then go to the Ji Prefecture and ask Marquis Wu An.”
Zhao Feng's grandfather was the Marquis of Wu 'an, Zhao Rui.
The moment he said that, all the officials were shocked.
Who would dare to behave atrociously in front of Marquis Wuan?
The Marquis of Wu 'an, Zhao Rui, was a veteran of the Great Han Dynasty's three dynasties.
For a moment, the hall was silent.
All the civil and military officials could tell that His Majesty was biased towards Zhao Feng.
He even wanted to promote Zhao Feng.
Ta!
A Royal Guard quickly arrived.
"Your Majesty, good news from Jizhou!"
"Good news? Hurry up and present it!"
Liu Hong was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered.
Ta!
An Embroidered Uniform Guard quickly arrived.
"Your Majesty, General Zhao Feng recaptured Julu and killed the Yellow Turban Duke General Zhang Liang!”
All the officials were shocked.
Earlier, Zhao Feng had killed General Zhang Jiao.
And now, he killed General Ren Gong Zhang Liang?
Only Earth Duke General Zhang Bao was left among the Yellow Turbans?
For a moment, all the civil and military officials in the court whispered.
The Zhao Clan of Chang Mountain indeed lived up to their reputation!
Great General He Jin was delighted.
He wanted to rope in Zhao Feng and even the Zhao Clan of Chang Mountain.
The rebellion of the Yellow Turban made the emperor Liu Hong mentally and physically exhausted, and his body was getting worse day by day.
In the future, the emperor of the Great Han Dynasty would definitely be his nephew.
Thinking of this, He Jin strode out and reported,"Your Majesty, Zhao Feng will defeat Zhang Liang and pacify the Yellow Turbans in Jizhou soon. Now, it would be better to ask His Majesty to send someone to Jizhou. Once Zhao Feng pacified the Yellow Turban in Jizhou, he would be invited to Luoyang.”
Boom!
The entire court was shocked!
Great General He Jin actually respected Zhao Feng so much?
Liu Hong's eyes darkened.
He knew He Jin's intention. He was obviously trying to rope Zhao Feng in.
"Great General, do I still need you to tell me?”
The emperor, Liu Hong, slammed the table and stood up. His cold eyes stared at He Jin.
He Jin knew that something was wrong and hurriedly kowtowed to the ground.
"I don't dare!"
"You don't dare? You want to rope in Zhao Feng's beloved minister for your use?”
Boom!
These words were like a wake-up call!
He Jin kowtowed to the ground and hurriedly explained,"Your Majesty, I dare not."
Cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
"You don't dare? Since you want to see Zhao Feng so badly, I will grant you your wish.”
"Men!"
A yellow-skinned man with a croaky voice hurriedly bowed and said,""Your Majesty!"
"Go to Jizhou and invite Minister Zhao Feng to Luoyang.”
"Yes, sir!"
The Yellow Gate replied and turned to leave with the edict.
" Wait!" Liu Hong looked at He Jin and said coldly," When Zhao Feng comes to Luoyang, teach me how to rope him in!"”
"Your Majesty!"
"Retreat!"
Liu Hong's expression turned cold as he flicked his sleeves and left.
He Jin looked at Tian Zi's back and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
Liu Hong was clearly humiliating him on purpose.
After returning to the study, Liu Hong had just sat down when a royal guard hurriedly came to report.
"Your Majesty, Zong Zheng Liu Yan has returned.”
"Please!"
Liu Hong was overjoyed. Liu Yan must have something important to help him with.
Could it be that the remnants of the previous dynasty from fifteen years ago finally had some clues?
With a series of footsteps, Liu Yan strode over.
"This subject, Liu Yan, pays his respects to Your Majesty!"
Liu Hong stood up, looked up, and asked,""Zong Zheng, any leads?"
Liu Yan shook his head." Your Majesty, I have no idea. However, I have something to tell you."”
"What is it?"
Liu Hong looked at Liu Yan coldly.
"Your Majesty, the Yellow Turban Rebellion is rooted in the governors of the Great Han. This humble subject believes that Your Majesty can abolish the provincial governors and appoint prefecture overseers!”
"Abolish the provincial governor and appoint a governor?"
Liu Hong's eyes darkened as he slammed the table and stood up.
"Liu Yan! I asked you to go to Jizhou to investigate the remnants of the previous dynasty, but you told me to abolish the provincial governor and establish a prefecture governor?”
"Your Majesty, compared to the remnants of the previous dynasty, the abolition of the provincial governor and the establishment of the prefecture governor is a necessary change for the Great Han Dynasty!”
Liu Hong looked at him and smiled coldly.""Since that's the case, tell me to abolish the provincial governor and appoint a governor!”
"Your Majesty, I believe that the Yellow Turban Rebellion has shaken the foundation of the Great Han Dynasty. The governors of the various regions are fighting for themselves, giving the Yellow Turban an opportunity.”
"Now, the most important thing for the Great Han is to abolish the provincial governor and establish a prefecture governor!”
