Chapter 98 Backer King

Southern Xinjiang.

The palace of the patron king.

In the hall.

The patron king, who had white hair, was sitting on the main seat, looking at the letter in his hand, his face was solemn, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

There were more than twenty generals wearing armor and stomach sitting on the chairs on the left and right below, and everyone's face was indescribably solemn.

Seeing the trembling look on the backing king's head, these generals couldn't help but feel worried.

"Snapped."

After reading the contents of the letter, the patron king slapped the letter on the armrest, stood up and said loudly: "Take my golden stream and prepare your horse. I want to return to Luoyang."

"I would like to ask the little emperor on the dragon throne how that old man Wen Zhong died in the four northwest prefectures?"

"How could the 30,000-god Wu Erlang be completely wiped out in the hands of Huang Tianjiao's rabble?"

"Why did those two guys Yan Hua and Wu Jin have their homes confiscated and their families exterminated, and they also captured more than 20 ministers in the court?"

"There is also a severe drought in the four northern states, with thousands of people dying of hunger. Why didn't the imperial court provide comprehensive disaster relief?"

"I want to ask him how he became the emperor?"

"In just one month, three of the four auxiliary ministers died, twenty or thirty of the civil and military officials in the country were confiscated and their families were exterminated, and even the Shenwu Guards who suppressed the world lost thirty thousand people."

"Does he, the emperor, want to ruin my empire that has lasted for hundreds of years?"

The patron king's voice was like a bell, and his momentum was overwhelming, like a lion about to explode, and he said gloomily.

The patron king really didn't expect that in this short period of one month, such a huge change would occur in the court.

Two important ministers of the auxiliary country and dozens of ministers of the DPRK and the DPRK were confiscated and exterminated. There was a severe drought in the four northern states, and the court failed to provide disaster relief, which triggered a civil uprising.

Huang Tianjiao took the opportunity to raise the flag of rebellion, and even King Xiaoyao of the royal family openly raised the flag of rebellion.

What the patron king couldn't accept the most was that Grand Master Wen Zhong, a veteran of three dynasties and the pillar of heaven who held up half of the sky in the Great Zhou Dynasty, died in battle.

While the patron king was angry in his heart, he couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes.

I feel sad for the death of such a patriarch of three dynasties in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Optimus Pillar.

He is sad that his patron Wang has lost a close friend.

If anyone in the entire Zhou Dynasty had the best relationship with Grand Master Wen Zhong, it was undoubtedly his patron, King Zhou Zhan.

Because they are from the same era, and they are also the only two pillars of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It was the two of them who held up the sky of the Great Zhou Dynasty. One was at the center of the court, and the other guarded the borders. It could be said that they worked together in a tacit understanding.

But now, the death of one of the only Optimus Pillars in the Great Zhou Dynasty is equivalent to the collapse of half of the sky in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

This makes the patron king Zhou Zhan not as angry as a furious lion.

When the generals on both sides below heard that the patron king was going to take the gold gourd back to Luoyang, their expressions suddenly changed.

The general who was sitting on the right stood up immediately and said, "Your Majesty, you must not do this. There are so many important things happening in the court. You will know that your Majesty is impatient."

"But the prince is the backbone of the 300,000-strong southern army. He has a heavy responsibility to guard the barbarians in southern Xinjiang."

"If the prince leaves, the 300,000 Zhennan Army will lose its backbone."

"Once the barbarians take the opportunity to attack the border, the southern border will be in danger."

Then another general stood up and said, "Yes! Your Majesty, the barbarians are now outside the Pass. If they find your Majesty and return to Luoyang, they will definitely attack the Pass with all their strength."

"At that time, without you, Prince, as the backbone, the 300,000 Zhennan Army will be like a body without a soul."

"How can we stop the hundreds of thousands of barbarians outside the pass? Please think twice."

Next, the generals on both sides of the hall all said to the patron king: "Please think again, Your Majesty."

These generals did not want the patron king to return to Luoyang, not only because of the ever-present danger from the barbarians at the border, but also because of the patron king's fiery temper.

Especially when the patron king said he would take the gold stream back to Luoyang.

You must know that the patron king's golden stream is the same as the golden whip used by Taishi Wen Zhong to beat the king. They both have the right to beat down the emperor and the rebellious ministers.

When the late emperor was in power, he neglected the government because of his romantic nature. This patron king broke into the Yangxin Palace with a golden stream.

Therefore, these generals were afraid that the patron king would get angry with the gold gourd and anger the person on the throne in the palace, which would not end well.

"Think twice."

"Are you all just doing it for a living?"

"Without me, wouldn't you be able to lead the 300,000 Zhennan Army to defend Southern Border?"

"Now there are great changes in the court. The old man Wen Zhong died in the battle. If I don't return to the court, the court will be in turmoil."

"Especially since there is great chaos in the four northern states, without me returning to the court to take charge, who knows whether the court can calm down as soon as possible."

"You are all generals who have served as generals for many years. You should be well aware of the consequences of these turmoils. If you cannot put down the turmoil in time, it will spread and cause catastrophe."

The patron king said solemnly.

As the only pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, now that Grand Master Wen Zhong is dead, he is the only pillar left.

Naturally, we must return to the court as soon as possible to prevent unrest.

"Your Majesty, hasn't your Majesty sent Marquis Mighty and a general named Lu Bu to send troops to the four northern states to quell the rebellion?"

"I heard that Lu Bu's general was a strong man who was half a step above heaven. The emperor also sent Zhou Laozu to accompany the army on the expedition."

"With two strong men who are half-step celestial beings accompanying the army to quell the rebellion, it shouldn't be a problem to pacify the rebels in the four northern states."

The general on the left said loudly.

"Yes! My lord, the rebellion in the four northern states should be quelled by the court soon."

"As for the court, judging from the news, the emperor killed the Taifu, the general, and more than 20 court officials. It was obvious that he was taking back power."

"The emperor is no longer the emperor he used to be. With his rights taken back, the emperor will be able to maintain stability in the court."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to return to Luoyang."

"At this time, the prince should help the court guard the border. Stabilizing the border is the most important thing."

The general on the right also stood up and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the two generals are right. At this time, Your Majesty should stabilize the border. The most important thing is not to allow problems on the border."

Other generals also spoke out one after another.

After hearing the words of these generals, the patron king frowned.

Although what these generals said made sense, he, the patron king, was still worried if he didn't go back to Luoyang to see for himself.

Just then, a horn sounded.

A soldier rushed into the palace hall with a anxious look.

"Report..."

"Your Majesty, the barbarians are making some noise. They have dispatched several small groups and begun to invade the border."

What?

When the patron king heard this, his face immediately darkened.

I originally thought about going back to Luoyang, but I didn't expect that the barbarians would make some movement at this time.

Damn it.
