Chapter 678 Actively Handing Over Power

Zhao Shuo bared his teeth at Pei Qiyin.

"Hey, no, no, just chatting."

Lin Feng threw the pen in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Zhao Shuo.

"Okay, tell me."

Zhao Shuo scratched his head and hesitated.

"Brother, my father asked me to ask what you think about Zhao Gui's plan to mobilize troops from the 11th and 9th Battalions?"

Lin Feng nodded, knowing that sooner or later the blame would fall on Zhao Shuo.

"I've already said that Zhao Gui should come and lead the troops."

"Zhao Gui doesn't dare to come."

Lin Feng drummed his fingers on the armrest of the chair.

"What should I do?"

Since Zhao Shuo had already spoken out, he no longer hesitated and straightened his body.

"Brother, this is what happened. Zhao Gui went to see my father. He wanted us to send two battalions of troops to Qiancheng."

He glanced at Lin Feng guiltily, then continued.

"My father meant to ask you first, big brother."

Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment.

"Does your father agree?"

"My father means that if you agree, then we'll do it. If you don't agree, forget it."

"Has Zhao Gui taken over the Seventh Battalion in Qiancheng?"

"Yes, the 7th Battalion of the Qiancheng Imperial Guards has 30,000 men. Jiao Sanqiang has agreed to hand over the command, but he will still assist Zhao Gui in leading the troops."

Lin Feng nodded: "We need to send the team over. Hey, how can we fight a tough battle if we are so timid?"

"I think he's in big trouble too. I hope he doesn't bring disaster to all our soldiers."

Lin Feng stroked his chin, as if talking to himself.

"The Emperor has issued an imperial decree, demanding we hand over power. Prince Rui has also asked you to urge me to send troops. Wan Quan should be the most proactive. He actually let Jiao Sanqiang hand over the military power so readily. This is not enough. Let Jiao Sanqiang directly assist Zhao Gui."

"Yes, Zhao Gui is indeed very favored in the eyes of the emperor."

Lin Feng stared into Zhao Shuo's eyes.

"What do you think?"

"Me? Uh...Brother, the Emperor has already issued an imperial decree. It seems..."

Lin Feng shook his head: "The emperor has already discussed this matter with me. He wants to separate the Zhenxi Army from the Imperial Guards. Your father has a similar idea. He doesn't want me to get involved with the Imperial Guards."

Ju Chaoyue couldn't help it on the side.

"What are they doing? Don't they know that the clan will be doomed if they leave the deputy commander?"

Lin Feng sneered, "They know very well that it's just that one side doesn't trust the other, and the other side can't let go of the power in their hands. This has led to the idea of ​​having it both ways. It's very naive and ridiculous."

Zhao Shuo lowered his head and said, "Alas, the emperor only trusts those around him, and Wan Quan is clinging to military power. It's difficult to deal with..."

Ju Chaoyue said firmly: "We can't hand over the military power and let them kill themselves. Not only will they kill themselves, but we will be killed too."

Lin Feng looked at him in surprise.

This General of the Cavalry of the Imperial Guards is a senior general in the emperor's personal army.

He has always been in awe of the imperial power.

Now that he can actually say such words of disobedience, it can be said that he is extremely disappointed with the court.

As they were talking, Wei Ming ran in from outside.

He glanced at the people in the room and saw that they were all Lin Feng's confidants, so he no longer had any concerns.

"Sir, we can't let Zhao Gui lead his troops to attack Jingdong City. He's courting death. How can we let him ruin the excellent soldiers we've painstakingly trained?"

Wei Ming, the General of Chariots and Cavalry of the Ninth Battalion of the Imperial Guard, went from resisting Lin Feng to accepting him.

Now all we talk about is how we are and what we are doing. We have unconsciously integrated into this group.

Lin Feng waved his hand with a smile.

"Don't be in a hurry, sit down and have some tea first."

Pei Qiyin hurried over to bring tea.

After everyone quieted down, Lin Feng spoke calmly.

"My point is very simple. No matter who the imperial court sends to fight back against the rebels, we will not stop them, much less oppose them. The only thing is, don't deplete our army."

"Yes, that's how it should be. If they don't listen to you, why should we cooperate with them and die?"

Wei Ming slapped his thigh and agreed strongly.

Lin Feng smiled and turned to face Zhao Shuo.

"Zhao Shuo, if you really care about the great clan, your uncle the emperor, and your father, then don't get involved in these messes. It's a waste of brainpower. Of course, you don't have the stuff."

"Ah, brother, I don't have anything?"

Zhao Shuo looked confused.

Pei Qiyin covered her mouth and chuckled, and couldn't help but nod her head with her little finger, prompting Zhao Shuo behind Lin Feng.

Zhao Shuo looked at Pei Qiyin, who was smiling like a flower, and suddenly realized something, and then his face turned red.

"I know my brother treats me well, but Dad said so, so I have to..."

"Alright, I understand what you mean. Go ahead and train the soldiers well. Since you are leading an army alone, you should act like a commander."

"Hey, brother, I'm going then."

After Zhao Shuo finished speaking, he turned and walked out. When he was almost at the door, he suddenly turned around.

"Brother, how should I respond to Dad?"

Lin Feng pondered for a moment.

"So, you can say that I will send the soldiers of the two battalions to Qiancheng tomorrow."

Everyone in the room opened their mouths wide and looked at Lin Feng in disbelief.

We were talking just fine, why are you giving away military power all of a sudden?

Lin Feng waved to Zhao Shuo, signaling him to pass on the message.

Then he smiled and said, "Don't worry, since you all follow me, Lin Feng, I won't let you suffer any loss. I believe you are all clear about this."

Ju Chaoyue and Wei Ming finally felt relieved.

Lin Feng immediately asked the messenger to summon all the generals stationed in the city to hold a meeting at the Cannes Command Headquarters.

Zhao Shuo also immediately passed the news back to the palace.

After receiving the news, King Rui frowned.

He was afraid that Lin Feng was going to give up and was ready to hand over his military power, so he led the Zhenxi Army to withdraw from Kyoto.

But Zhao Shuo assured again and again that Lin Feng was normal at the time and did not feel unhappy at all.

The news that Lin Feng was going to hand over the military power of the Imperial Guards spread immediately in Kyoto.

The reactions of the bigwigs from all sides varied.

Emperor Zhao Zhen was naturally very satisfied, and Lin Feng did not resist his order.

Generally, generals like this who come from remote places have outstanding military achievements and outstanding abilities, and they are promoted based on their military exploits.

If they are deprived of their military power, they will naturally have some extreme reactions.

But Lin Feng didn't, he was indeed a good young man who was obedient, capable and competent.

Grand Tutor Wan and Zhao Wenqi were full of doubts, and they were also wondering about Lin Feng's purpose.

If it were me at this moment, I would definitely resist strongly. Not only would I argue with reason, but I would also never hand over the military power easily.

What's more, Lin Feng took the initiative to deliver the goods to the door, which exuded an even more weird atmosphere.

The two of them pondered for a while, looked at each other and shook their heads repeatedly.

"There is a problem, definitely a problem. What should we do next?"

Zhao Wenqi firmly believed that there was a conspiracy here.

Grand Tutor Wan's gray eyebrows were furrowed together.

"Wen Qi, I can't figure this out for now. It's better to just watch from the sidelines and stay out of it. Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with you or me."

The person who was most happy about this news was Zhao Gui.

"Hahaha... Lin Feng, wait until I get the military power, then we can settle the old scores."
