Therefore, the imperial court issued a decree to northern Hebei.

He ordered the King of Jibei to hand over his military power and jurisdiction over Jibei, and then brought his whole family to the capital for retirement.

As soon as this imperial edict came out, the world was shocked

"The imperial court is going to deal with King Jibei!"

"It’s indeed about time! King Jiangnan and King Wuxi were both taken away, leaving only King Jibei! The imperial court has won consecutive victories, its morale is high, and its troops and horses are strong. How long will it take if we don't take action now?"

"The King of Northern Hebei is in trouble! If you accept the decree, you will lose everything and can only be an idle prince! Otherwise, if you disobey the decree, you will be punished by the imperial court sending troops! Can the King of Northern Hebei win the court?"

"Daxia lost, the King of Jiangnan lost, and the Wuxi and Dayue allied forces also lost. What else could the King of Northern Hebei do? If he doesn't have enough military strength and financial resources, how can he just rely on those people in the world?"

"I think the King of Jibei is going to die!"

……

In the land of northern Hebei, the royal palace.

The King of Jibei received the imperial edict, his face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and said:"The court is forcing me!"

Mr. Zhuge, the military advisor, smiled bitterly:"Now the court has won great victories one after another, and has taken back the land south of the Yangtze River and Wuxi. In this land, the morale is strong and the soldiers and horses are strong, so it is natural to make such a decision!"

"Fortunately, we are not without resistance! Mr. Zhuge said excitedly:"

Now, we have an army of 300,000, tens of thousands of Houtian peak warriors, and three great masters to help us. We can definitely compete with the imperial court!" Your Majesty, if you can’t afford to send troops now, when will you wait?"

The King of Jibei was also very excited:"Military advisor, you are right, the time has come to raise troops! An army of 300,000, tens of thousands of acquired peak warriors, and three great masters are enough to dominate the world. The time has come to change the Dragon Court! Let's raise an army now!"

So, the King of Jibei tore up the imperial edict and issued a proclamation.

The treacherous ministers were in power, blinded the saints, harmed the loyal, and the people were in dire straits!

It's not that I want to rebel, but that the court has become filthy and harmful to the world, so it has to be cleaned up!

For the sake of the great martial arts, for the sake of the country, Kuang Fuzhengdao, for the sake of the common people, as a relative of Emperor Dawu, it is our unshirkable duty to raise troops to clear the emperor's side and restore peace to the world!

I hope that all the heroes in the world will fight against it together!

In the message, King Jibei also listed all the sins of the officials in the court.

No matter how vicious it is, it will make people's blood boil and their teeth gnashing.

"These corrupt officials, taking money and bending the law, harming the loyal and good, are so abominable, they all should be killed!"

"No wonder Dawu is in such chaos, it’s because of these corrupt officials!"

"If we don’t kill these people, it won’t be enough for the people to get angry!"

"Your Majesty, you are doing well and we all support you!"

"They must be killed!!!"

……

Immediately there was a response!

I have to say that King Jibei is much smarter than the other two princes!

The finger was not pointed directly at the emperor, but at the officials below her!

This target is too accurate, because the officials under her are indeed corrupt officials and treacherous ministers. I don’t know how much people’s support they have absorbed, and how many loyal and good people have been harmed!

This is what the common people have seen, heard and felt with their own eyes.

Therefore, after seeing this memorandum, all the anger and dissatisfaction in my heart were aroused. I either helped him or waved the flag and shouted, adding fire to the hegemony of the King of Northern Hebei and putting on the cloak of justice.

However, the officials in the court were furious!

In front of the whole world, they actually said that they were corrupt officials and traitorous officials!

They are greedy and traitorous, but do you just turn a blind eye to the contributions we have made?

Without them controlling the court, the country would have collapsed long ago. How could you have the good life you have now?

You can just call us corrupt officials and traitors, but why do you turn a blind eye to the biggest corrupt officials and traitors?

Lin Beifan was much more greedy than us. He moved boxes of gold, silver and jewelry to his home without any secret. Why let him go?

Lin Beifan is much more treacherous than us. Even us treacherous officials are afraid of him. Why don't you scold him?

The more the officials in the court thought about it, the angrier they became!

This is really unreasonable, God is unfair!

"Dear nephew, I leave this battle to you! The King of Northern Hebei has committed crimes against his superiors and has no regard for his superiors. He also slanders his own officials as corrupt officials. How unreasonable! You must fight to the land of Northern Hebei and capture the King of Northern Hebei! Gao Tianyao, the Minister of Civil Service, said fiercely.

"That's right! My dear nephew, you will never let King Jibei go so easily! Qian Yuanshen, the Minister of Household Affairs, gritted his teeth and said,"I have been pure and clean all my life. I have never been greedy for the slightest bit of money from the people. He actually said that my court is extremely corrupt?" Pure slander! It's best to kill all his people and let him know the consequences of offending us!"

"If he only calls you a corrupt official, that’s already good enough! That old man accused me of being dissolute and sleeping with 10,000 girls! Damn it, do I have this ability? Even if you have the ability, you don’t have the time! Li Kaiguang, Minister of the Ministry of War, was so angry that he was shaking all over:"We must catch him back. I will take a deep breath!""

"It's okay for you. That old man slandered me for having the habit of Long Yang and being good at cutting off my sleeves. When I walked on the road, people looked at me weird and they all stayed away!" Zhao Jinli, Minister of Rites, issued a strong complaint

"My dear nephew, I’m begging you to fight hard. I’ll give you my full support! The more proud he is now, the harder he will fall!"Wang Rushuidao, Minister of the Ministry of Industry

……

With the support of hundreds of officials, Zhao Kuozhi was very proud and said loudly:"Uncles, please don't worry, the little King of Northern Hebei is completely incompetent! My nephew will definitely lead a large army to march across Northern Hebei and capture the King of Northern Hebei." Come back to vent your anger!"

"OK OK!"Everyone applauded again and again.

Then, the conversation changed.

"But dear nephew, my little brat, I leave it to you. Don’t forget him when you have the chance to make a contribution!"

"Dear nephew, don’t forget my nephew! My nephew has been in the army for many years and is capable enough, but now he lacks a chance to show off! Therefore, you must give me a lot of support!"

"Dear nephew, my nephew is also very capable. Don’t forget him!"

"Dear nephew, my child has never been in a war and is even afraid of killing a chicken, so I don’t ask too much! Don't let him go when you are in danger, just let him come back safely and take some credit!"

……

Baiguan did not help Zhao Kuo for nothing, but hoped to gain some credit for his descendants through him.

Both parties benefit from each other and each gets what they need.

Zhao Kuo had a headache, but he had to smile:"Uncles, please rest assured that my nephew will definitely take care of them! If you have merit, I will never forget them!""

"OK OK!"All the officials laughed and returned home happily.

Since the King of Northern Hebei tore up the imperial edict, it was obvious that he was disobeying the edict and was preparing to rebel. Of course, the court would take action.

Zhao Kuo was appointed as the general to conquer the north and led an army of 400,000 to Jibei. Capture the king from the north.

The whole world was shocked when this happened.

"He's not Duke Zhongyong, Lord Yin Lin of the Capital Prefecture?"

"Yeah, I feel weird too! Logically speaking, Master Lin led his troops to defeat the coalition forces of Daxia, Jiangnan King, Wuxi and Dayue. His military ability is so outstanding that it is not an exaggeration to call him a military god! It would be most appropriate for Lord Pai Lin to take action. Why is this?……"

"Then Zhao Kuo is no ordinary person! He comes from the Zhao family, a military family, and is the best among the contemporary young people of the Zhao family. He has been exposed to it since childhood and is familiar with the art of war and military books, so he has been recommended by hundreds of officials!"

"It's useless no matter how well you study. The battlefield is changing rapidly. How can an inexperienced young man lead troops to fight?"

"I think so too! He is so young and has never led troops to fight. Is he good?"

"I feel a bit uncertain, let's let Mr. Lin take the lead!"

……

At this time, in the land of northern Hebei, the royal palace.

The King of Jibei looked at the leading general of the imperial court and was a little confused:"What is Zhao Kuo's background?"

"Report to the prince! Mr. Zhuge raised his hands and said,"This man comes from the Zhao family, a military family. He is the eldest son of the Zhao family, and he is also the best person among the younger generation!" He has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and he also joined the army to train with his father, so he gained the trust of hundreds of officials and jointly recommended him as the general of the Northern Conquest!"

"So what if it’s excellent? War is not a child's play. What qualifications does a young man who has never fought in a war have to lead an army in combat? Does the imperial court look down on this king by sending him to lead the army?"The King of Jibei was a little angry.

Mr. Zhuge immediately reported:"Prince Qi, according to what Miss Rushuang said in her letter, the original candidate for the leader was Jun Lin! Mr. Lin originally planned to lead the army to surrender, and let the prince go directly to the capital to change the dynasty!"

"But who would have thought that all the civil and military officials would intervene and push Zhao Kuo out? They clearly wanted to snatch Lin Jun's credit! Mr. Lin was worried and argued hard, but in the end he was no match for the sycophant in the court!"

"It turns out that it is these corrupt officials who are causing trouble and ruining my good deeds!"The King of Jibei gritted his teeth:"When I take over the capital and wear the royal robe, none of them can escape!"

"What the prince said is absolutely true, we must not let them run away!"Mr. Zhuge nodded.

"You are commendable for your loyalty, but it is a pity that you were held back by these corrupt officials and ruined the good thing! However, this grievance cannot be suffered in vain, I will avenge Mr. Lin!"The King of Jibei apologized for Lin Beifan:"Military advisor, I leave this matter to you. You must give this king and Mr. Lin a hard blow! Mr. Zhuge smiled:"Your Majesty, if Mr. Lin knew that you were fighting for him, he would definitely burst into tears of gratitude. He would be so grateful that he would devote himself to his lord until his death!""

The King of Jibei smiled and nodded. This was his plan to buy Lin Beifan's loyalty through this method.

Then, a storm of public opinion started from Jibei and quickly swept the world.

"What does the imperial court mean by sending a boy with no hair to lead an army to fight?"

"At first glance, it seems to be nepotism. Is there no one in the court? It’s getting worse!"

"If it is Duke Zhongyong, we will be afraid of three points! But what can a second-generation ancestor who relies on his family do? Stop peeing your pants and becoming the laughing stock of the world!"

"War is not a child's play, go back and nurse, that is your battlefield!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
