Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Chapter 25: Clearing the Identity and the Agreement with Emperor Qing
Liu Hong clenched his teeth.

Emperor Qing must have investigated his life story thoroughly, so he just told him everything.

"I was originally a bandit from Danzhou. I was saved by the government troops. I drifted to the capital, but I didn't change my nature. I extorted money and cheated my way out of my official position."

"This is a crime of deceiving the emperor. Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Eunuch Hou, who was serving on the side, had a look of approval on his face.

This kid is a talent! He knows that his background has been thoroughly investigated.

Put things directly on the table.

Not only did he give Emperor Qing a handle, but he was also able to successfully clear himself.

Emperor Qing raised his head for once and suddenly felt bored.

He is so young but acts like a seasoned official. He seems to be another Lin Ruofu, or Qin Ye.

Thinking of Qin Ye, Emperor Qing's brows twitched slightly.

This old guy has been in the army long enough and has a very high prestige. Moreover, he was a witness to the Taiping Villa Massacre.

"Get up... We'll talk about your matter later. Do you know why I asked you to come here?"

Liu Hong moved his sore knees a little, but he still wasn't used to kneeling.

When he heard Emperor Qing's question, he immediately pretended to be dumb.

"Your Majesty, I don't know!"

"What are you doing at the Fan family? Don't you know that military commanders and court officials cannot have close personal relationships?"

Emperor Qing seemed to speak casually.

Eunuch Hou, who was standing by, quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Liu Hong's heart sank, the highlight was about to begin.

"Your Majesty, I once met Miss Fan Ruoruo at Yishiju and fell in love with her at first sight. This visit..."

He didn't finish his words, and it was obviously intentional.

He wants to both clear himself and show his youthful identity, full of vigor and vitality, yet a little shy about love between men and women.

All in all, this was a great show.

Liu Hong gets full marks!

Emperor Qing breathed a sigh of relief and believed what Liu Hong said. After all, his acting was so realistic.

But he still had a stern face.

“This is a felony!”

"I am deeply troubled. Your Majesty, please punish me."

Liu Hong knelt down again and cried out in pain.

In his heart, he cursed all of Emperor Qing's ancestors for eight generations.

After all, he has the memory of Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang. Can this imperial mentality stump Liu Hong?

Emperor Qing waved his hand impatiently.

"That's enough! If I really want to punish you, you won't be able to enter the Imperial Study."

"I asked you to come here to ask about the movements of the barbarians in the left tent. After all, your troops are stationed near the left tent."

"The barbarians in the left tent have evil ambitions. Your Majesty must be on guard."

Liu Hong spoke simply, and this sentence was the truth.

He approached the left tent and found that the group of Hu people liked to rob the craftsmen of Qing State the most.

This is not good news. Even the Hu people value technology. As a result, the two major countries in the world are still fighting for power and engaging in internal friction with each other.

Emperor Qing was extremely pleased as he had been engaged in wars every year, either fighting against small vassal states or teaching the Hu people a lesson.

Isn’t it because of their wolfish ambitions?
"Do you think I don't know? But there are no horses in my Qing country..."

Speaking of this, Emperor Qing is most depressed.

It’s not that the Qing Kingdom was without horses, but there were too few war horses, and most of them were poor horses that could not bear the heavy load.

Liu Hong's eyes sparkled, realizing that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Your Majesty, if you give me ten battalions of troops, I will definitely seize the horse breeding land in Daqing."

Emperor Qing raised his eyebrows, put down the arrow in his hand, and did not ask Liu Hong about the battle plan, but only asked about a place.

"where!"

"Qianlong Bay!"

Liu Hong spoke in a decisive tone.

Qianlong Bay is equivalent to a state, located between Nanling County and Langya County of Northern Qi, and close to the strongest Hu people force, Xihu.

Moreover, they did not want to hand over Dingzhou to Nanqing. Even if they captured it, it would only be an enclave.

Eunuch Hou couldn't help but shake his head, thinking that Liu Hong was overambitious.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Qing burst into a hearty smile for the first time.

"Okay! Then I will give you ten battalions of soldiers. If you can really seize it, then I will make you an earl, so why not?"

The words turned sinister. "If you can't get it, you know the consequences!"

Liu Hong held his head high and spoke in a confident voice.

"I will commit suicide naturally. I have failed your majesty's grace. I have no words to live in this world!"

"I will give you another gift. If you can really get to Qianlong Bay, I will grant you a marriage with Fan Ruoruo."

Without waiting for Liu Hong to say anything.

Emperor Qing waved his hand, motioning Liu Hong to go down.

The reason why Emperor Qing could talk so much with a fifth-rank general was entirely because he thought that Liu Hong was an interesting guy.

Liu Hong took his leave and left the imperial study.

He gently lifted the clothes on his back, which were already soaked with cold sweat.

When Eunuch Hou saw Liu Hong leaving, he couldn't help but remind Emperor Qing.

"Your Majesty, if Liu Hong fails, these ten battalions will be gone."

Emperor Qing had a calm expression and drew his bow and arrow.

The arrow hit the armor in front directly, making a crisp sound, and then fell to the ground.

"And then, there are only more than 10,000 people, it doesn't matter."

Emperor Qing's voice was quite cold.

He has an army of hundreds of thousands. If he draws troops from Qing County, that would be an army of millions.

Invest 10,000 yuan in Liu Hong, even if he fails, it doesn't matter.

Eunuch Hou opened his mouth but still said nothing.

I just have a deeper understanding of the cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness of the emperor in front of me.

Liu Hong returned to the compound without stopping and took a comfortable bath.

So far, Emperor Qing doesn’t care about Liu Hong’s friendship with the Fan family. After all, Liu Hong and Fan Xian have not grown up yet.

However, as Fan Xian gradually accepted the inner treasury and exercised the power of the Supervisory Council.

After Liu Hong conquered Qianlong Bay, he was named Earl.

The two people must confront each other diametrically and be as hostile as water and fire, otherwise Liu Hong will not survive.

Liu Hong sighed.

This is so fucked up! No matter what happens, Fan Xian can't die.

Even if he encounters a big problem, there will always be a group of fathers to clean up his mess.

But if you are not careful, you will die.

Liu Hong really suspected that he would go crazy one day if he didn't rebel and overthrow such a depressing life.

The next step is to wait quietly for the imperial edict.

After Emperor Qing gave the order, Liu Hong was promoted one level to become the commander and had an official position.

Liu Hong was able to leave Beijing again, so he still had to keep a low profile.

But things are different now. Liu Hong wants to keep a low profile, but others are unwilling to let him do so.

The gate of the compound slammed shut.

The people of the Supervisory Council, in an orderly manner, surrounded the compound with sharp blades in hand.

More than one hundred of Liu Hong's personal guards were stationed outside the city with their war horses.

There were only ten personal guards in the compound.

The royal guards confronted the people from the Supervisory Council, and it was clear that they were at a disadvantage.

This day, everything went wrong when I returned to Kyoto.

Even a clay man has a temper, let alone Liu Hong, a general who was born a pirate.

Liu Hong picked up the three-foot-long sword and walked out of the room angrily.

Zhu Ge from the Supervisory Commission looked at Liu Hong with a sneer, obviously dissatisfied because he did not hand over the person to the Supervisory Commission yesterday.

"I've heard that the Overwatch Council is arrogant and domineering, but I didn't expect that they would dare to break into someone else's house in Kyoto, under the feet of the emperor."

Liu Hong's face was gloomy, and the guards beside him hurried to protect him.

Zhuge picked his ears absentmindedly.

"I am in no mood to talk to pirates. Hiding your identity and deceiving the emperor, do you know that this is a capital crime?"

Yo...if you said this in a few hours,

It is possible that Liu Hong might be afraid to act rashly, but sorry, Emperor Qing himself doesn't mind, so why do you?

It’s typical that the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is.

Liu Hong relaxed and looked at Zhu Ge with contempt.

"If Master Zhu wants to use this to hit me, it's not strong enough!"

　Apart from anything else, he earns 8,000 yuan a day. What a hard-working author.

　　Can't I even get some tickets?
