In fact, in Zhu Houcong's heart, Zhao Yuan was at least a hero, and he made a lot of contributions. How could the ministers in the court who only knew how to intrigue do this? The current situation is to hand over their heroes to those Mongols in person. Maybe their lives and death are uncertain. If they do this, the people of the world will feel like those tyrants?

If this matter spreads, how can people in the world see themselves as their king? Wouldn’t they become foolish monarchs who kill innocent people?

Zhu Houcong is also very distressed now. On the one hand, the army is facing the edge. Although there are not many enemies, it still has a certain threat to the border. On the other hand, Zhao Yuan is a rare meritorious official in the court. In terms of merit, there are actually more ministers than those who make random fuss in the court.

So now Zhu Houcong is in a dilemma, and when he is in a dilemma, the person he wants to find most is naturally Lu Bing. In addition, Zhao Yuan is originally from the Jinyiwei, so how should this matter be handled naturally should be handled by Lu Bing!

Lu Bing stayed next to Zhu Houcong and said, "I think I should hand over Zhao Yuan!"

When Zhu Houcong heard this, he couldn't help but look up and said in surprise: "Take it over?"

Lu Bing said: "Yes, now Uryanha is asking for Zhao Yuan, and the army is undermining the border. If the emperor does not allow Yang Kai to go, the ministers in the court will not stop at all. In their eyes, it is natural to die for the sake of the country and the people. As long as the emperor issues an imperial edict, Zhao Yuan must go."

Zhu Houxian said: "Let me issue an imperial edict to let Zhao Yuan go? In other words, I personally give the heroes of the court to the enemy? I am the emperor, a great emperor, and a huge territory. When I face the enemy Wei Xi, I can't even protect my heroes. So why do I have the face to face the civil and military officials of the court? What kind of face do I have to face the people of the world?"

Zhu Houcong said that he was a little excited here. Issuing an imperial edict to let Zhao Yuan go, which was like slapping him hard. The current court is not weak, nor is it a situation where he can be slaughtered. However, facing the threat of Uryanha, he, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, could not protect his meritorious officials. He could only hand over the meritorious officials for nothing. This was simply a great humiliation!

Those who submitted the memorials obviously did not understand the meaning of this. Among them, they might just think that handing over a martial arts person is harmless to the court. However, many people don’t know Zhao Yuan’s contribution to the court. After all, their reasons are very simple. A mere martial arts person can avoid the war between the two armies, so why not?

But they didn't know that doing so would be like slapping Zhu Houcan in the face.

Lu Bing said: "But in this situation, if Zhao Yuan did not show up, wouldn't this place meet in war?"

Zhu Houxian said: "So what if we meet in war? Are we still afraid that they will not succeed! We will never give it to others if we pass on my will!"

Lu Bing hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, why are you going to discuss this matter tomorrow morning?"

Zhu Houcong looked at Lu Bing, knew what Lu Bing meant, nodded and said, "Okay, let's discuss it tomorrow morning!"

…………

In Yan's mansion, Yan Shifan was a little proud at this moment, holding the teacup in his hand and laughed: "Father, I haven't seen this Yang surname, but today. Now the soldiers in Urianha are in the verge of being in the forefront. I don't believe it. At this time, Lu Bing can still protect him. As long as he is sent to Urianha, will he still have the chance to come back then? I didn't expect that our grudge would be avenged to us!"

But when he finished speaking excitedly, he found that his father looked calm and there was no joy on his face, so he quickly sat beside his father and asked in confusion: "Father? Why are you unhappy?"

Yan Song looked at his son and said in a silence: "Happy? What's there to be happy about?"

Yan Shifan said: "What's there to be happy about? This Urianhan asked Yang Kai by name. Speaking of which, this is just killing people with a knife. Isn't it worth being happy about?"

Yan Song snorted coldly and said, "Happy? That's stupid!"

Yan Shifan was stunned and asked in confusion: "Father, what do you mean?"

Yan Song said: "What do you mean? Do you think this emperor will hand over the person?"

Yan Shifan said: "That's sure, it's not just a person from the world. He is not a court official. Now that other people's army is approaching, the war is about to begin. The most direct and easiest way to avoid this war is to hand over Yang Kai. There is no other way! Does this emperor have any other choice?"

Yan Song said: "You, like everyone else, have only seen the surface. In my opinion, the emperor will never be able to interfere with him."

Yan Shifan was puzzled when his father actually said such words, "No? How is this possible? Now many people in the civil and military affairs of the court are writing letters, just ask the emperor to hand over this person. Does this emperor care about what those adults in the court say?"

Yan Song said: "That's because many adults in the court don't know about Yang Kai's contribution. The capital destroyed the Japanese pirates' strategies and made outstanding contributions on the coast. In addition, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver were found from the Bai family pit, and the treasure left by Zhu Yunwen was found, and he brought people to rob the treasures of so many people in the Flower God Palace. Which one is not outstanding contribution? If he was rewarded in terms of merit, his official position would be no longer inferior to you. Let me ask the court now that there are so many adults and generals. Who can compare with him for this contribution? But he may be used to being idle.

He was unwilling to enter the court to become an official, so many officials in the court did not know his merits, and they just thought he was just ordinary martial arts people. Then he hurriedly wrote to the court and asked the emperor to hand over the people. They didn't know at all. They said and did this, as if they were slapping the emperor in the face! For the emperor, handing over the meritorious ministers to the court, wouldn't that mean that the court was incompetent and could not even protect those who had such outstanding contributions to the court? They had to hand over them to the slaughter of others?"

Yan Shifan then suddenly realized, gently tapped his head and said, "I am so happy, I didn't expect this to happen. In this way, this emperor would never hand over the person?"

Yan Song said: "That's certainly, but now the ministers in the court are excited. Those who are unreasonable have written letters and asked the emperor to issue an order. They are just a group of idiots and don't know what it means to guess the saint's will. Remember, when the court goes to court tomorrow, the ministers will definitely make a fuss about this matter. We must protect Yang Kai!"

Yan Shifan was immediately dissatisfied and said, "Save Yang Kai? I wish I could tear him to pieces, but now I still have to protect him."

Yan Song's face darkened and said, "How many times have you said to your father? In this court, remember one thing, that is, it is to act with voluntary power. Now, do you have to follow the saint's will or kill Yang Kai? Which of these two matters is more important, are you not sure? Besides, do you think that even if you strongly agree, the emperor will give Yang Kai to Urianha? If that matter is spread, wouldn't he be ridiculed by the people of the world!"

Although Yan Shifan was a little reluctant, he did not continue to refute. In fact, he knew his father's intentions very well. The fact that the entire Yan family could stand firm was largely due to the correct understanding of the emperor's intentions.

Yan Shifan didn't know, but he felt that this time it was the best opportunity to get rid of Zhao Yuan. Then he not only couldn't get rid of Zhao Yuan, but also had to follow the emperor's wishes and work hard to protect Zhao Yuan.

So he said reluctantly: "I understand, father!"

Yan Song said: "It's best to know. I'll spread my words. Tomorrow, those censors will keep their mouths tight when they go to court."

Many of these censors are now Yan Song and his son, and who they have to deal with, naturally rely on these people to take the lead, so they can easily influence the direction of the court.

…………

The next morning, morning court!

After saying some gossip, Zhu Houchuang coughed gently and said, "Wuliangha asked us to hand over a martial artsman named Yang Kai, I wonder what suggestions do you have for you here?"

Before the ministers came out, Yan Song suddenly took a step forward and said, "I have something to say to the emperor!"

When the officials who were ready to move saw Yan Song coming out first, they were ready to pick up their hands, intending to follow Yan Song behind him and continue to make a note!

Zhu Houxiang said: "Yan Aiqing, I don't know what you think about this matter."

Yan Song said: "Old minister, Yang Kai must not hand over this."

The officials were eager to hear this, but they thought they had heard it wrong, and they looked at Yan Song in confusion.

Even Lu Bing looked at him with a strange look, but when he thought about it carefully, he immediately understood what Yan Song meant. In the entire court, if someone was good at guessing the emperor's meaning, this person was nothing more than Yan Song. He knew very well that the emperor did not intend to send Zhao Yuan out this time, but wanted to save Zhao Yuan.

Zhu Houcong was also a little exception and asked, "You must not hand over it? Yan Aiqing, what do you mean?"

In fact, Zhu Houcong also asked questions clearly, and Yan Song knew in his heart that he was just trying to use his own words to explain the reason why he didn't want to hand over Yang Kai.

So he coughed gently and then said, "A few years ago, the Japanese pirates invaded our coastal areas, and the people were suffering. At this time, Yang Kai brought more than a hundred Liu family disciples to the anti-Japanese sequence. In the past few years, the Liu family disciples have killed more than a thousand Japanese pirates, and there are countless victories of all sizes. Although the Liu family disciples were later led by Liu Zhiqing and Tang Qingyun, these people were trained by Yang Kai. There is no doubt that this is one of them! Second, three years ago, Yang Kai and his wife Cang Wushuang broke into Wuliangha alone. When they came back

Hou brought back the national savage and his son as hostages. With these two hostages, Ulihan did not dare to rush to our border for a few years. This is the second. The third is, two years ago, the Japanese pirates put on makeup and sneaked into the capital and the Dongjiao hunting ground. Their purpose was to assassinate the court ministers, including the court ministers present, with the intention of causing panic in our court. In addition, they were ambushed in the Dongjiao hunting ground, and their targets were directly targeting the emperor and the civil and military ministers in the court. In the end, Yang Kai destroyed their plan, and more than two thousand Japanese pirates were killed in the front and back."

Speaking of this, Yan Song paused for a moment and then said, "Fourth, before the deposed emperor was captured by Chengzu in the capital, he sent people to secretly transport a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry and other treasures from the palace out of the capital, and then hid them, intending to use them as funds for restoration. Later, these treasures were discovered by Yang Kai and all arrived in the capital as military pay!"

After saying that, Yan Song raised his tone and continued: "Although Yang Kai is just a fool, he always thinks about the court and shares his worries for the king. Now, Urianha calls on Yang Kai. No matter what the other party has, we should not send people who have made contributions to the court. Otherwise, if the matter spreads all over the world, wouldn't it disappoint the people with ambition in the world? They sacrificed their lives for the country, but now the court cannot even protect him. Who would still be willing to think about the court in the future? That would disappoint the people with ambition in the world! Besides, a mere Urianha is completely done by villains. They may feel that our dynasty has no power to deal with the Japanese pirates and their attacks at the same time. If they endure so much, wouldn't it be felt that our dynasty has no cowardice and people who cannot fight against the attacks of the Japanese pirates and their people. If they endure it so much, wouldn't it be felt that our dynasty has no cowardice and no war? "

Yan Song actually helped Yang Kai talk everywhere. Lu Bing was a little surprised and took it for granted. He also stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Lord Yan said is very right. Our dynasty must not compromise with Urianha!"

The two most powerful people in the court found that they worked together to protect Yang Kai, which made the ministers who originally wrote the letter suddenly stunned. They knew very little about Yang Kai, or many people didn't know it at all. Now, after hearing Yan Song's words, they realized that in their eyes, the mere martial arts people actually made so much contribution, and any opinions were enough to receive generous rewards, including many death-dead high-ranking positions.

Of course, there are also some people who are smart. Whether it is Yan Song or Lu Bing, they are trying their best to protect this person. If they are asking the court to hand over the people, wouldn’t it be against the two most powerful people in the court in front of them? No one can offend, let alone offend two people at once? So they immediately had a quick mind and stood up immediately and said, "I think the two masters are very saying. If a person who has made such a contribution to the court cannot protect it, wouldn’t it disappoint the people of the world? Therefore, I think that this person cannot be handed over!"

It would be better if someone took the lead. Immediately someone stood up and said, "I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"

"I'm going to discuss it!"
