After leaving Lu Zhi's camp, Zuo Feng quickly returned to Luoyang City.

Lu Zhi did not do anything to Liu Chang. After the talk that day, there were still rumors in the camp from time to time. However, Liu Chang was quite disdainful of this. The others repeatedly suggested that Lu Zhi deal with Liu Chang, but Lu Zhi did not adopt it. Only Liu Bei seemed to be preparing for something, but Liu Chang was afraid that he would implicate him, so he deliberately kept a distance from him. He was not very clear about what Liu Bei was doing.

In a palace in Luoyang, Zuo Feng was talking to a lazy man sitting on the cushion with a flattering look.

The man said in a lazy voice: "You went to the front line to inspect Lu Zhi this time. He did a good job? Have the main forces of the Yellow Turban bandits been wiped out? I heard that he has been in Guangzong County for a long time."

Zuo Feng hurriedly said, "Son of the day, when I was ordered to go to the front line to inspect Lu Zhi, I found that he was very lazy to your orders and had been passively afraid of war under Guangzong County. So much so that many fighter jets were delayed. Was he waiting for God to bring disaster to eliminate the bandits? In this way, Lu Zhi must have wanted to raise the bandits and respect himself."

When the emperor heard this, he was furious and said, "How dare he do this? Could it be that I trust him too much? I have broken up the party according to their words. Is this how these scholars of the clan repay me?"

Zuo Feng then slandered and said, "Your Majesty, I am on the front line. Lu Zhi and his men all have no respect for Your Majesty. I think it must be that Your Majesty is too kind to them."

The emperor's anger was no longer suppressed and he shouted loudly: "Come here, remove Lu Zhi from his post and get jailed and taken back to Luoyang with a prison cart. I should interrogate him in person in the hall."

Zuo Feng hurriedly said, "Please calm down your anger. A ignorant treacherous and slander like Lu Zhi is not worthy of your majesty's anger. I hope Your Majesty can put his body first."

""

Then Zuo Feng changed his mind and began to say, "Report to Your Majesty, I met a group of thieves on the way back. The leader of the thief was inspired by His Majesty's power. He would like to admire the king's transformation. He specially asked me to offer treasures to thank His Majesty for his kindness." He paused and said to the emperor, "Can you allow me to present the treasures?"

After hearing this, the emperor was also a little curious and said, "Good, then send someone to bring everything up."

Then, a servant in the hall walked out.

The emperor then asked, "Oh, who is the one who presented the treasure?"

After Zuo Feng thought about Liu Changxu's wealth, he began to speak good things for Liu Chang: "Liu Chang, a man from the mountains and fields of Jizhou, led more than a dozen young men to become bandits because of conflict with the local tyrants. He then became powerful and plundered Zhongshan County. Now he may have tens of thousands of people under his command. However, he often admired Wang Hua, and did not plunder heavily in Zhongshan County. Instead, he stabilized the place, drove out thieves and fought against the Yellow Turbans. Now he is fighting desperately with the Yellow Turbans on the front line. He once heard that he had repelled tens of thousands of Yellow Turbans in Dingzhou and protected Zhongshan County from being plundered by the Yellow Turbans."

The emperor sighed and said, "If this is true, such a good person should be a filial and honest person. Why have I never heard of him?"

"Now the gentry in various places is complicated, how can they give such quotas to others?"

"These powerful families are all disasters to the country, because they only think about their own family members and old officials, and such talents cannot be used by the emperor."

Just as the two were talking, the servants who had sent out earlier led several people to carry boxes into the hall.

After seeing everyone coming in, Zuo Feng asked the emperor: "Can you allow each box to be opened?"

The emperor nodded and said, "Then open it quickly and let me see what kind of treasure it is to make you speak good things for him."

Zuo Feng pretended to be embarrassed after being pointed out and said, "Your Majesty clearly understands, I am talking about the heart. This person is indeed a rare talent."

After hearing the emperor's order, everyone opened all the boxes and lie quietly in the boxes with several exquisite crafts. Even Liu Honggui, as the emperor, never had such exquisite things.

Then the emperor walked over with a surprise look, and even took out one and started playing with it.

These crafts, each worth hundreds of dollars, once again successfully conquered an ancient man.

The emperor praised in a happy tone and said, "Not bad, since he is so tactful, I should reward him." Then the emperor thought for a while and continued, "Since he led tens of thousands of troops and could take the initiative to admire the king's transformation and surrender. Let him be the General of the Pacant Nation and continue to attack the Yellow Turban bandits."

Zuo Feng hurriedly said, "I should thank Your Majesty for Liu Chang."

The smile on the emperor's face kept coming out: "Since you confiscated his property, how could you thank me for him out of thin air?"

Zuo Feng showed a panic expression and said, "Your Majesty is really a clear understanding. We will send you what Liu Chang gave me to you."

"Since it was given to you by him, then you can take it away."

Then Zuo Feng knelt down and said to the emperor: "I thank Your Majesty for the reward."

Then the emperor asked curiously: "What did he give you?"

"Report to Your Majesty, I will immediately send all the things that Liu Chang gave me to Your Majesty."

"Since it was given to you by someone else, how could I have the nerve to take it away casually?"

"The honor and disgrace of the empress are all your majesty. Not to mention wealth, our lives are also your majesty."

After hearing this, the emperor said happily: "It turns out that someone like you is my loyal minister."

Zuo Feng said excitedly: "What Your Majesty said is really frightened."

Then he looked embarrassed and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything.

Seeing that he was like this, the emperor said, "What are you talking about in a straightforward way?"

Zuo Feng immediately said with relief: "Before I left, Liu Chang told me that his troops were all stationed in Zhongshan County, begging Your Majesty to grant him the position of the governor of Zhongshan County, so that he could safely fight against the Yellow Turban bandits."

The emperor played with these things, his expression changed and his words were firmly said: "The county magistrate cannot be exchanged for these things. It is worth 20 million yuan. This is the rule, and it cannot be broken."

Zuo Feng hurriedly said, "Liu Chang understands the rules. He is willing to hand over all the property he robbed, and he will keep a total of one million yuan in money and tens of thousands of pounds of fine salt."

"How could Zhongshan County have so much fine salt?"

"Liu Changyan all came from the homes of all the gentry."

"Since he is so tactful, he will be appointed as the governor of Zhongshan County, the General of the Central Army of the Pacific Office. However, all the money owed should be paid in several years."

"I will tell Liu Chang if I know."

"Since that's the case, you can just step down first."

"I'm going to leave."

After saying that, Zuo Feng led everyone who had carried the box out of the palace together. Zuo Feng said to the Lishi who came with him: "After going back, I will send all the treasures I selected before to His Majesty."

"I'll find out."
