Chapter 203: Discussions in the Palace

"Your Majesty, how can the increase of military structure be accomplished overnight? The fifth battalion of the Northern Army has been loosely managed for many years, and the eunuchs in the inner palace are not familiar with military matters. It is ridiculous to even talk about the Eighth School of Xiyuan!"

In the front hall of Jianzhang Palace, as soon as Liu Cang arrived in front of the palace, he heard He Jin's dissatisfied and contemptuous voice coming from the palace.

After dodging and avoiding the main entrance of the front hall, Liu Cang leaned directly against the wall, slowly squatted down, raised his hand and waved to the guards in front of the hall. The guards looked left and right, kept an upright posture, and moved to Liu Cang.

"What's the situation?" Liu Cang asked the guard. It's fine that people like Chunlie didn't go to the mountains to have fun, but why did they come to Jianzhang Palace to discuss matters? Liu Hong couldn't be caught on weekdays?

"I don't know very well. It was fine when I first entered. But as soon as the preserved fruit and meat were served, there was a commotion inside. It seemed that Changshi Jian suggested that His Majesty form the Eighth School of Xiyuan or something, and many adults expressed objections."

The guard stood upright, looking straight ahead, and whispered to Liu Cang who was squatting aside.

Liu Hong brought the courtiers who were not interested in hunting into Jianzhang Palace. Depending on the situation, he wanted to use this informal occasion to test the courtiers' attitude towards the formation of the Southern Army in Xiyuan?

He Jin was so outspoken that he didn't even think about whether it was appropriate to use the word "ridiculous" in front of Liu Hong, or was it so arrogant that he couldn't speak without thinking?

"General, please be patient. Now the place is uneasy, and there is a rebellion in Liangzhou. You also said that the Northern Army's frequent mobilizations will inevitably delay the march. What Jian Shuo said about training the new army seems to me to be somewhat necessary." Liu Hong

The sound came, and Liu Cang leaned by the door to peek.

Sure enough, He Jin's words made Liu Hong unhappy. This was supposed to be the moment for Zhang Rang to start a fight with He Jin, but Liu Hong took action directly.

Liu Cang was not in a hurry to enter the palace, and squatted directly at the door of the front hall, hiding in silence, which made the guards around him have their eyelids twitching.

It's none of his business, he's just looking after the garden, where national affairs are being discussed, why would he go in there to join in the fun?

"What your Majesty said is true, and not to mention anything else. Now Beigong Boyu's rebellion is a top priority, and we should give top priority to this matter." Zhu Jun's voice came out, and Liu Cang rolled his eyes.

Is this old man really a Hutu or pretending to be a Hutu? Does Liu Hong want to discuss the Beigong Boyu rebellion? He picked up the topic blindly.

"Your Majesty, a strong army is not a bad thing, but building a new army will inevitably involve military pay and preparations. The requirements for the Eighth Battalion of Xiyuan are not trivial, but this military expenditure and preparations need to be calculated carefully."

A strange voice came from the hall again, and the topic seemed to be brought back again. Liu Cang looked around and saw Zhu Junzheng glaring dissatisfiedly at a middle-aged man in his thirties.

Yuan Ji and Liu Cang suddenly realized that the new generation of the Yuan family in Runan was in charge, and they had some sharp eyesight. The next moment, Zhu Jun looked at Yuan Feng again. The old man lowered his eyebrows and gave Zhu Jun a faint smile. Seeing that Zhu Jun was angry

He hummed and stopped talking.

"Well, the Shiji has carefully thought about it. The new army should not increase the burden on the Taiwei's mansion. I think that the Young Mansion should bear the army's salary and select capable people to lead the army." Liu Hong said thoughtfully.

After Liu Hong finished speaking, the hall became quiet for a moment, and He Jin's eyes widened with a hint of disbelief. After that, there was no words in the hall, but it was quite noisy, and Liu Cang couldn't hear the details clearly.

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to speak nonsense, but the war horses in the Weiyang Stable have been unable to make ends meet in recent years, and many stables are vacant. Now we still need to put the war horses into the stables and train them early. The horses in Shanglin Garden can be domesticated." Yuan Ji added,

Liu Cang couldn't squat anymore.

Horses? Liu Cang has counted the horses in Shanglin Garden one by one in the past few months. There are very few horses, less than 6,000 in total. Liu Cang has some small thoughts of leaving the horses in Shanglin Garden to kill Liu Hong.

.

Yuan Ji holds the position of Imperial Servant and ranks among the Nine Ministers. He has jurisdiction over the Weiyang Stables and is in charge of the emperor's chariots and horse administration. Why will the Yuan family have more cavalry in the future? This guy may have given the Yuan family in Runan a lot of black war horses. He will

It's not a good thing to target the Linyuan horses.

"Your Majesty, there are a lot of deer hunted in the grand prize this year. There are many tigers and bears hunting wild horses in the mountains. The number of wild horses in Shanglinyuan has been greatly reduced. More need to be brought back from the border areas. If they are hunted again, I am afraid that it will damage the reproduction of the horse herd.

." Regardless of anything else, Liu Cang quickly stepped into the palace, without stopping, and already said loudly.

Liu Cang was tall and strong, and he walked like a dragon or a tiger. The ministers in the palace couldn't help but look at Liu Cang, who had a serious expression on his face. While everyone had different expressions, they saw the leader, Liu Hong, and a group of eunuchs seeming to be faintly praising him.

Yuan Ji and Liu Cang didn't dare to quarrel. Fortunately, Liu Hong didn't turn his elbows. Judging from his expression, Liu Cang also knew that His Majesty was very strict about keeping money.

Is the Yuan family in Runan awesome? Do you feel that some of your disciples and former officials are a bit vain?

In fact, this is not the case. People have many real things in their hands.

Let’s not talk about the old ones. We can tell one thing or two from the fact that Yuan Shu’s second son entered the court and was a strong and powerful general.

What is the Huben Zhonglang General? That is, the commander of the Huben Cavalry, equivalent to the head of the Central Guard Corps in later generations, responsible for protecting the Han emperor.

Although now, not to mention the Tiger and Ben Cavalry, even the Yulin Cavalry has changed beyond recognition, but this level is not false at all.

Saying that Yuan Shu is the second legitimate son has little to do with Yuan Shao, because the old man in front of him is the eldest son of the Yuan family, Yuan Ji.

Yuan Shu, the elder brother above Yuan Shao, this Yuan Ji is the leader of the younger generation of the Yuan family in Runan. In front of Yuan Ji, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are just the second generation of the two flying eagles and fighting dogs.

Many people in later generations felt that Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao were second-rate monarchs, and it was natural that they should be second-rate. History has exaggerated these two people too much. In fact, they were just two good-for-nothings.

The Yuan family in Runan has a great business, but before the Yuan family was destroyed by Dong Zhuo, these two were good at eating and drinking, and there were not so many young masters and young masters with more crooked ideas.

Liu Cang could confront Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, and beat them without any problem. At most, it would be regarded as the absurdity of a young man.

But Yuan Ji and Liu Cang couldn't quarrel with him. They didn't dare to quarrel with him without looking at Zhu Jun. This guy was the face of the Yuan family in Runan. To quarrel with him would be to slap the Yuan family in the face. Who knows how much trouble it could cause.

"Huh? I have already strictly ordered to prevent animal disasters. How did you guarantee me? How could you let the horses be damaged?" Liu Hong scolded, but his face was calm.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Your Majesty, in order to keep the horses wild, the Shanglin horses must not be tame. Bears and wolves are easy to guard against, but tigers and leopards can easily move hundreds of miles away, so it is really difficult to take care of everything.

"

"The Shanglin garrison already lacks war horses. In the early days, the general had to mobilize 500 war horses for maneuver. I am not strict in my management. Please punish me."

Liu Cang lowered his eyebrows and looked at He Jin, who had a cold face, and then at Yuan Ji, who had a playful look on his face. Smiling? What a joke. We should ask the general for our war horses. There are tens of thousands of war horses on the border. You are still young.

If the stable wants horses, go to the general.

"Um.

I can't blame you." Liu Hong pondered and spoke for a moment. He didn't talk in detail, as if the horse incident had been revealed.

Seeing the interaction between Liu Cang and Liu Hong, many senior officials in the palace had strange expressions.

Among the people, He Jin looked at Liu Cang with a somewhat complicated look, disdainful, probing, defensive, it was hard to tell the specifics.

It should be said that He Jin really had no intention of harming Shanglin Garden. Shanglin Garden was the private land of the royal family and the private land of his future emperor's nephew. He would only harm his own things if he was stupid.

Liu Cang was diligent in rectifying Shang Linyuan, and He Jin would not cause any trouble for him in this regard. And the queen's sister said that this boy was unstoppable and wanted to take it for her own use?

Ma De, your brother and I were pinched by this kid. How can I not know how violent this kid is?

But even if this boy sides with his nephew, he is still the son-in-law of the Zhang Rang family after all.

He Jin can still understand that his sister wants to pull outsiders to check and balance him. It is not easy for him to argue with He Lian in this regard.

Considering Liu Cang's young age, his status, his courage, his strength, and his clean foundation, he is indeed a top-notch candidate to be used as an assistant.

But this kid is quite unruly, well, but speaking of it, he seems to be really good to his family.

He Jin now has a very ambivalent attitude towards Liu Cang and wants to kill him, but after hearing that he is siding with his nephew, he can't help but fantasize about Liu Cang guarding him.

Tsk tsk, look at this tall guy. If he were to stand by with a halberd, he would feel majestic and comfortable just thinking about it.

I want to slap Liu Cang to death, but I also hope to conquer Liu Cang.

Amid various conflicts, He Jin felt annoyed when he saw Liu Cang, but he also kept thinking, didn't Liu Cang just marry Zhang Rang's niece? What would happen if he was allowed to marry another daughter of the He family?

But if he fails to win over, wouldn't it be more embarrassing? But being too harsh may cause the queen to be unhappy.

He Jin's indecisive character is now reflected in Liu Cang.

"Your Majesty, I am an old minister who wants to suppress the hunting activities of the princes. However, the war in Liangzhou is unfavorable. After Hu Liwenhou and the self-proclaimed king Song Yang, Xuyi joined Han Sui, Bian Zhang has rebelled, and Zhang Wen's war is unfavorable.

Now that the rebels have invaded Sanfu, we should send good generals and soldiers to stop the enemy's arrogance, so as to prevent them from gathering strength and causing trouble again."

Liu Cang was still congratulating himself on guarding the horses in Shanglin Garden, while Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi both stepped forward.

The two men's continued conversation did not arouse Liu Hong's dissatisfaction. Following Liu Hong's gaze, everyone in the palace looked at Liu Cang again.

Seeing Liu Hong's judgmental look, Liu Cang instantly understood Liu Hong's intention in calling him here. He glanced around, raised his eyebrows and clenched his teeth, and finally looked at Liu Hong.
