Chapter 636           Change the house

Liangzhou, prefecture.

In today's prefecture, officials gathered.

The lobby was filled with people on both sides, but the atmosphere was surprisingly quiet and bizarre.

Zhang Hong sat in the middle, and the two people at hand were the Chief Secretary Liu Si and Sima Yuan Xiu.

Below are many state officials.

An official who had a close personal relationship with Zhang Hong cleared his throat, bowed to Zhang Hong, and said, "Sir, the Eight Kings army has been besieging the capital for nearly a month. The capital was broken, so it is inevitable.

I, Liangzhou, have to make plans early!”

Zhang Hong looked at the official and asked Youyou: "What are your plans for Lord Yu?"

This person's name is Yu Peng. He is currently serving as the military officer of Liangzhou Prefecture, in charge of official assessment, etc.

Yu Peng said seriously: "Here, Your Highness... His whereabouts are unknown, life and death are uncertain. The Eight Kings entered the capital, and it was a foregone conclusion, so..."

He looked at Zhang Hong carefully and did not continue to say the following words.

But the meaning is very obvious, which is to quickly select a vassal king, then surrender to him, and find a big backer for them.

Zhang Hong looked at Yu Peng deeply, then looked around everyone else, and asked, "What do you guys think?"

The chief minister Liu Si sighed softly, shook his head and said, "Sir, this... is also a helpless move for us!"

Zhang Hong said meaningfully: "We can have today all rely on the support of Your Highness! Now your Highness is in a difficult time. You don't ask for sharing the joys and sorrows with Your Highness, but instead want to betray Your Highness?"

His words made everyone present blush.

Wang Huai, the military officer of the Si Bing, stood up and said, "Sir, what are your plans? You might as well say it out and let me wait and hear it!"

Zhang Hong said: "Wait!"

"What are you waiting for?"

"Wait for Your Highness to return!"

Zhang Hong said seriously: "I believe that the main hall can still bear it if it is only affected by this blow. It won't take long before His Highness will return!"

Speaking of this, his eyes swept across the faces of everyone and said, "When time is difficult, you wait for your thoughts to change. When your Highness returns, what kind of face do you have to see your Highness?"

Many officials lowered their heads when they heard this.

Liu Si whispered: "Sir, do you think Your Highness will come back?"

Yu Peng continued: "Even if one day you suffer, your highness will really come back, what can you do?"

Can you still fight for the throne?

Has there been a person who has become a disability in all dynasties?

How about King Li Heng of the Punishment?

Li Ying said that he would kill him.

How about Zheng King Li Yuan?

Even as a vassal king, no one would take him seriously.

Now that His Highness has been deposed with one hand, he will probably end up with the same fate as King Zheng and King Zheng.

The lobby became silent again.

Zhang Hong lamented in his heart that these people were all senior officials in the prefecture that he promoted himself. As a result, His Highness only encountered some setbacks and they wanted to turn to others.

Liu Si looked at everyone present and said, "Sir, I'm not to hide it. We... all plan to defect to the King of Yan!"

Zhang Hong looked at Liu Si in surprise.

Liu Si said seriously: "Your Highness of the King of Yan is both civil and military, and has outstanding military achievements. We believe that following Your Highness of the King of Yan will surely achieve great achievements!"

Yu Peng immediately responded: "What Master Yu said is extremely true! The King of Yan is generous and magnanimous, and now he is eager to seek talent. If we surrender to His Highness, we will definitely be valued!"

Zhang Hong was furious. He slapped the table violently and glared at Liu Si and Yu Peng.

Liu Si and Yu Peng were also startled. They looked at each other and said calmly: "National University, as the saying goes, good birds choose trees to live in, and those who know the current affairs are heroes! The general situation of the King of Wu is over, and the King of Yan is at its peak. If you do not seize the current situation and surrender to the King of Yan, you will be afraid that there will be no chance in the future!"

Yu Peng added lightly again: "From the Dragon's Achievement is right in front of you!"

Zhang Hongteng stood up and glanced left and right.

What he did not expect was that most of the officials present nodded repeatedly, as if they agreed with the words of Liu Si and Yu Peng.

Zhang Hong never dreamed that in the state, Liu Si and Yu Peng, had such thoughts, and most of the other officials also had this thought.

He turned to look at Sima Yuan Xiu on the other side and asked, "Mr. Yuan, do you agree with the words of Lord Liu and Lord Yu?"

Yuan Xiu blinked and said, "The officials thought that what Lord Liu and Lord Yu said... were also reasonable!"

Zhang Hong looked at Yuan Xiu blankly. After a while, he seemed to have been sucked away from his strength and sat back on the chair.

He murmured, "Your Highness is so kind to you! How can you betray Your Highness when you are in trouble?

How can you be so shameless when you are a human being?"

Yu Peng took a deep breath and said, "Sir, if you don't care for yourself, heaven will be punished by the earth!"

"What a man who doesn't care for himself will be punished by heaven and earth!"

This was not what Zhang Hong said, nor was it said by anyone present, but came from outside the lobby.

People were shocked and turned their heads and looked out the door at the same time.

I saw a group of people walking in from outside.

Tao Xiying was actually among them.

The leader was wearing a straw hat and ordinary cloth trousers. Judging from his outfit, he was just an ordinary citizen.

Yu Peng was stunned for a moment and came to his senses and shouted angrily: "Yard runners! Are all the yamen runners in the prefecture dead?

Who will let you let outsiders come in!"

Several yamen run in from outside in panic. People shrank their necks and shoulders, trembling one by one, and they didn't dare to breathe.

"I, an outsider, want to come in, but they can't stop me!"

The young man in the lead took off the straw hat on his head while talking.

Seeing the appearance of the visitor clearly, everyone present was shocked.

King of Wu?

This...isn't this the King of Wu?

Li Yu held a straw hat in his left hand and his right hand behind him, and walked into the lobby with a swagger.

People reacted from the shock, and then, a clattering sound was connected. People stood up and stammered, "I... I pay homage to Your Highness!"

As they spoke, everyone was about to kneel down and salute.

Li Yu shook his body, moved several meters away, walked around everyone, walked into the lobby, and said lightly: "I can't bear your gift!"

His words shocked people's bodies.

Liu Si and Yu Peng looked at each other.

Li Yu actually came to Liangzhou?

Isn’t this a godsend opportunity?

If he could capture Li Yu and hand him over to the King of Yan, it would be like he had made an extraordinary contribution!

The two made a quick decision in their hearts through eye contact.

They jumped up from the ground almost at the same time and shouted loudly: "Come here! Come here!"

As they shouted, the rumbling footsteps sounded, and hundreds of county soldiers suddenly surged out from the wing rooms on both sides of the lobby on the left and right sides of the prefecture.
Chapter completed!
