"That's right. We should believe in the King of Xiangyang!! They would not support Xiangyang for the time being. They would appease the affected people first!”
Zhao Gou sat on the dragon throne and looked at everyone.
After saying this, Zhao Gou could not help but let out a long sigh of relief. This was equivalent to giving up Xiangyang openly.
He didn't know how the world would view him after he made this decision.
However, it didn't matter. Just like he said, he believed in Yue Fei's strength. He would definitely use 200,000 Yue Family soldiers to kill many of the Xia Jin alliance army.
At that time, no matter who won, he could sit back and reap the benefits!
"Official!"
Han Shizhong looked at Zhao Gou and said sternly,""We can't do this!”
"Privy Han!"
Qin Hui lightly said,"The official has already made the decision. Does Privy Han think that he can make the decision for the official?"”
"Good, good, good!"
Han Shizhong looked at Zhao Gou and Qin Hui in despair and said in a low voice,""Official, you no longer have the ambition of the past. Now, not only do you put a villain like Qin Hui in an important position, but you also abandon a soldier like the King of Xiangyang.”
"How dare you!"
Qin Hui walked up to Han Shizhong and shouted,""How dare you say that about the Guan family!"
"Prime Minister!"
Zhao Gou gestured for Qin Hui to go back. Then, he frowned and said,"What do you mean by that?"
"Since the government doesn't want to support Xiangyang, then I'll resign and go to Xiangyang alone!" Han Shizhong said dejectedly. This old man believed that his saber had not yet rusted. He believed that even if he aged, he could still kill a few golden men for the Great Song!”
After saying that, he took off his official hat, took his Privy Council seal, and walked out of the palace in loneliness.
This wasn't the first time he was disappointed in Zhao Gou, but this time, he truly believed that Zhao Gou was hopeless.
However, as an official, he could not say anything. He only hoped that his resignation to Xiangyang would wake Zhao Gou up.
"Prime Minister!"
Zhao Gou didn't even look at Han Shizhong and said calmly,""You will take on the position of the Privy Council Envoy. You can also take care of the disaster relief!”
"It's the Guan family!"
Qin Hui was secretly delighted. Once Han Shizhong walked into the court, he basically had the final say!
"Yue Fei, don't disappoint me!”
Zhao Gou thought to himself.
Although he didn't want to support Yue Fei, he also hoped that Yue Fei could use Xiangyang to consume most of the Xia Jin alliance army.
When the time came, he would send out his troops. This way, he could easily take down the Western Xia and Jin Dynasties.
With such achievements, he did not have to worry that the two old emperors in the faraway Five Nations City would come back and snatch his position.
However, he also knew that this might be wishful thinking. After all, how could a 200,000-strong army from a prefecture defeat the 600,000-strong alliance army supported by the two countries?
In the evening.
Han Shizhong took his loyal family guards and left for Xiangyang without informing anyone.
At the city gate.
Several ministers who were on good terms with him silently watched him leave.
"Privy Han was too impulsive!" someone whispered.”
"Impulsiveness!"
Suddenly, someone shouted from behind.
A middle-aged man dressed like a merchant walked out of the city gate and said,""Although I'm just a merchant, I also think that Privy Han did the right thing. Xiangyang cannot be abandoned!”
A minister looked at the carriages of grain behind the merchant and asked,""Tang Hong, where are you going!"
"Xiangyang!"
Tang Hong looked into the distance and said," I don't have much ability. I can only sell my assets and do my best to buy some grain to support Xiangyang!"”
"What?!"
The official looked at Tang Hong in disbelief.
One had to know that since ancient times, merchants had been pursuing profits.
Now, Tang Hong had actually sold his family property to buy provisions to support Xiangyang!
"Everyone!"
Tang Hong cupped his hands and said," It's getting late. I'll head to Xiangyang first. We'll meet later!"”
After saying that, Tang Hong climbed onto the carriage and let the coachman drive the carriage to Xiangyang!
That official stared at Tang Hong's back in a daze and muttered,""Official, you have already lost the hearts of the people!”
After Tang Hong boarded the carriage, a woman in the carriage said softly,""Father, you used to be the general judge of Zhengzhou. Is it really okay for you to support Xiangyang so openly now?”
Tang Hong laughed loudly and said," I'm a white body now, and I prepared these carriages of grain myself. What's there to worry about?!"”
After laughing, Tang Hong said with a gentle expression,""Wan 'Er, father is worried about you. You are a famous talented woman in Lin' an, but now you are following father to the place of long battle, making father worried!”
Although Tang Wan looked weak, her tone was firm."The King of Xiangyang is a great hero with indomitable spirit. Wan 'Er believes that he will definitely not lose this battle. Furthermore, Father is in danger. How can Wan' Er live alone in the rear!”
"Good!"
"Then let us father and daughter see how the Xia-Jin alliance army is defeated by the King of Xiangyang!" Tang Hong said with a smile.”
At this time, loyal people from all over the country knew about the court's decision and went to Xiangyang one after another.
Of course, countless scholars were also criticizing Qin Hui in public!!
