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

Chapter 252: Success Talk: The Poisonous Chicken Soup for the Soul, Fan Xian’s Inner Struggle

Zhang Liang's eyes were a little confused, but he soon came to his senses.

"Sir, you mean the admiral of the Changkun Navy?"

Now that Li Chengru was transferred back to Kyoto for the three routes of Andong, Liu Hong was no longer given an excuse to use the princes to rebel and violently attack the entire Dongshan Road.

There are only three first-rank officials left.

At the suggestion of Liu Hong, Admiral Chang Kun integrated the navies of Shazhou, Quanzhou and Jiaozhou.

He became a thorn in Fan Xian's side!

Because the navy was an independent naval force founded by Ye Qingmei in order to protect the goods in the inner treasury.

After years of division between Emperor Qing and the court, the three major navies were formed: Jiaozhou, Quanzhou and Shazhou.

And now Chang Kun wants to reap the benefits and take away the inheritance left by Fan Xian's mother.

How could Fan Xian be willing to do this? He almost vomited blood after losing Barrett.

So who do you think you are, Chang Kun? You even want to snatch the navy away!
After Zhang Liang sorted out the logic, he frowned, thought for a while, and then spoke slowly.

"Sir, what are you going to do? After all, Admiral Chang Kun hasn't been very respectful to you lately, has he?"

Since Chang Kun was promoted to a first-rank official, he felt that he could be on par with Liu Hong and the Qin family.

In order to get rid of his vassal status, he secretly disobeyed Liu Hong's various transfer orders and wanted to get closer to Emperor Qing.

This made Ergouzi, Versace and others very angry.

Liu Hong single-handedly promoted Chang Kun from a fourth-rank official to a first-rank official.

The result is a ungrateful person!

If it weren't for the 100,000 troops in the Wuzhou camp, it would take more than half a year to get used to the game.

I'm afraid Ergouzi will lead his troops directly and smash the navy's large ships to pieces.

Liu Hong seemed somewhat tempted, but still shook his head.

He had just cleaned out a large number of aristocratic families in Jiangbei Road not long ago. If he did not help Chang Kun, it would probably make his subordinates who were dependent on him feel disheartened.

After all, in the eyes of everyone, Chang Kun is still a die-hard member of Liu Hong's Grand Commander faction.

Fan Xian tried to recruit him several times, but he remained indifferent.

"Chang Kun can step down from the position of admiral of the navy, but he cannot be assassinated or unreasonably captured by the Black Cavalry of the Overwatch Council."

Liu Hong pondered for a while and spoke slowly.

"No matter what he is like, at least so far, he is mine."

I am willing to lend a helping hand to anyone who betrays me, save his life and protect his official position.

I will surely reward those who are loyal to me handsomely in the future.

Understand the applause!

Although this kind of success-oriented chicken soup for the soul is quite poisonous, it is also the same as spending a fortune on horse bones.

Tell the world how good Liu Hong is to his subordinates.

Zhang Liang nodded and had no objection to Liu Hong's decision.

"In that case, please ask the Grand Commander to move to Suzhou! If you stay in Wuzhou and do nothing, I'm afraid Fan Xian and the Black Cavalry won't dare to take action."

Liu Hong pointed at Zhang Liang and laughed.

"The one who understands me is Zhang Liang!"

Bai Lang listened silently to the decision of Liu Hong and Zhang Liang and curled his lips.

He hated these bigwigs above him, who would rather focus on fighting for power and profit than pay attention to the people below.

"Bai Lang notifies the personal guards and the governor's guards to head south to Suzhou in the south of the Yangtze River!"

Bai Lang nodded and left the tent.

Zhang Liang looked at Bai Lang's figure for a long time, then retracted his gaze and spoke with some concern.

"Sir, if you take this rebel leader as your personal guard captain, I'm afraid you will be stabbed by him in the future."

Why did Liu Hong accept 20,000 bandits into his army?

It is because these people have seen blood and have become wild and unruly. They are easily submissive and will rebel again without being intimidated by violence.

Bai Lang was even more rebellious and full of disgust towards the aristocratic families and officials.

Their minds have almost become twisted, and they believe that no official in the world can make decisions and that aristocratic families can occupy land.

"Well, I know what I'm doing. I'm just giving him experience. At least he should be able to command tens of thousands of people."

Liu Hong's eyes turned slowly.

Bai Lang is like the dark side of Liu Hong. He is illiterate and full of hatred towards the Kingdom of Qing. When he sees the noble families and officials, he basically has no other choice but to kill.

Constrained by his vision, apart from dividing the spoils equally among his subordinates and gaining prestige, there was basically no further action.

From the dialectical perspective of later generations, they were peasants and anarchists with a rebellious consciousness.

Seeing that Liu Hong was already on guard, Zhang Liang nodded and said nothing more.

The headquarters of the Grand Commander of Andong set out again. The commander-in-chief's guard, plus Liu Hong's personal guards, totaled 9,000 people, but claimed to have more than 10,000 people.

They marched towards Jiangnan Road in a mighty manner.

For a time, there was panic in Jiangnan Road, and the struggle between the pro-Liu faction and the pro-Fan faction intensified.

Fan Xian, who was far away in Suzhou, Jiangnan, heard the news that Liu Hong had accepted his invitation and had already set off.

I felt a little relieved.

"It seems that Liu Hong can't wait to take action against Jiangnan Road."

Wang Qinian's face looked heavy, and his arm holding the envelope was stiff. He didn't want to hand the letter to Fan Xian.

When Fan Xian saw Wang Qinian's expression, he lowered his head with some guilt.

"Old Wang, you have been with me for so long, you know me well. I cannot watch my mother's belongings being wantonly eroded by those people."

"What's more, Admiral Chang Kun is corrupt and a diehard of Liu Hong. It's useless to recruit him several times. His Majesty has also agreed to my plan."

After saying that, Fan Xian stretched out his hand and wanted to take the letter from Wang Qinian.

This was the crime of Admiral Chang Kun.

Wang Qinian couldn't help but hold the envelope tightly and whispered to dissuade him.

"Sir, if you really do this, what's the difference between you and the dignitaries in the court today?"

Wang Qinian understood that Fan Xian had always had a dream of rule of law in his heart, and this was also Ye Qingmei’s dream.

Rule the country according to law!

The Supervisory Yuan has the primary judicial power and can arrest officials without conducting a trial, which is a violation of the rule of law.

Now, in order to regain Ye Qingmei's inheritance, Fan Xian chooses to assassinate the Navy Admiral Chang Kun and promote the old man from Ye Qingmei's era.

What is the difference between this behavior and that of the eldest princess and Emperor Qing?
Is the rule of law just a slogan?
Fan Xian buried his head deep in the ground, feeling so ashamed that he couldn't help but beg.

"Old Wang, give me the letter. This is Chang Kun's crime. It should be read out after Chang Kun's death."

Pain and helplessness flashed across Wang Qinian's eyes. He didn't understand how Lord Fan, who was so high-spirited back then, could have turned into this.

It was clearly stated that the world should be brought peace and prosperity, but is this the result?

His palm loosened and Fan Xian grabbed the envelope in his hand.

"Sir, what's the point of reciting the charges against a dead person? The dead are the greatest, and it's not the case that they don't even give him a good name after his death."

Fan Xian fell silent and sat on the ground, like a wounded fox, helpless and powerless.

It would be better if Liu Hong was still a loyal minister of Daqing, known for his courage and his conciliatory approach to governance.

It will surely let people all over the world live a good life.

After a while, Fan Xian stood up with a determined look.

"Now that Liu Hong has rebelled, as your Majesty's subject, I must stop Liu Hong at all costs for the sake of the people of the world."

Wang Qinian understood that the most important thing was that Fan Xian was His Majesty's illegitimate son.

Fan Xian and Emperor Qing have long been inseparable.

“I will do it myself this time. Only I, the Vice Admiral of Appeasement and the judicial authority, can control the three major naval forces as soon as possible.”

Fan Xian clenched his fists tightly and looked towards the north.

Liu Hong, I will never let your rebellion succeed!
Liu Hong's governor's guard stopped in Hangzhou and did not move forward.

He received local officials and gentry, and because the commodity economy in Jiangnan was developed, he adjusted his policies to further encourage the development of industry and commerce.

"Sir, news came from the Ming family in Suzhou that Fan Xian has been confined indoors for three days."

Zhang Liang hurried over with the letter to report.
