Chapter 1269 The Plan!

Liu Hong was not familiar with Zhang Jiao at all. Even Zhang Jiao was able to develop Taiping Road to its current level, and his contribution was indispensable.

It's just that at the beginning, he thought of using Zhang Jiao as a chess piece to check and balance the increasingly powerful aristocratic families like the Yuan family of Runan, who were gradually becoming qualified to threaten the imperial power.

In the end, Zhang Jiao went beyond his control and became another personal thorn in his side besides the wealthy family!

What made him feel even more helpless was that after Zhang Jue got out of control, even though he knew that Zhang Jue had rebellious intentions, he didn't dare to act rashly!

Because once he puts his energy on Zhang Jiao, those aristocratic families will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to pounce on him and bite off a piece of fat from him, and he will become even more passive!

In the same way, once he takes action against a wealthy family, Zhang Jiao will not let go of such a good opportunity. All that the great sage and mentor needs to do is raise his arms and he will probably be King Zhang Chuyin again.

Now that the Yuan family in Runan was colluding with Zhang Jiao, Liu Hong became even more vigilant and determined to eradicate them both!

Shi A didn't know that Liu Hong had thought so much in this short period of time.

After hearing Liu Hong's words, Shi A immediately replied: "Prince Bian means to deal with the Yuan family first, and then take action on Taiping Road. However, this matter is very important, and Prince Bian does not dare to make a decision easily, so he sent his ministers here." Please give me your Majesty’s instructions.”

"Bian'er's idea is good," Liu Hong nodded slightly, and then asked, "What do Bian'er plan to do?"

It is not difficult to deal with a Yuan family in Runan, but Liu Hong is not only afraid of one Yuan family, but all the aristocratic families in the Han Dynasty. Dealing with a Yuan family in Runan is just treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Without the Yuan family in Runan, there are still the Cui family in Hejian, the Xun family in Yingchuan, the Wang family in Taiyuan, and many other large or small aristocratic families.

However, Liu Bian was still young, and Liu Hong did not force Liu Bian to see such a long-term view. Anyway, he was still in his prime, and he had plenty of time to teach Liu Bian.

It just so happened that Liu Hong also planned to take this opportunity to use the lives of the Yuan family in Runan to scare those aristocratic families who were ready to make a move!

"Prince Bian means to send people to question the Yuan family, force the Yuan family to throw out Yuan Wei and his family as scapegoats, and then secretly cut off the Yuan family's power, and finally wipe out the Yuan family!"

Shi A heard the words and immediately replied: "Prince Bian has sent people to Runan to secretly cut off the Yuan family's influence in Runan. As soon as His Majesty gives the order, he will mobilize heavy troops and directly wipe out the Yuan family!"

"The power of the Yuan family in Runan is not small. Can the people sent by Bian'er be qualified?" Liu Hong frowned and said worriedly: "How about I send a few people to assist Bian'er?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry," Shi A heard the words and said quickly: "Your Majesty, you don't know. The person sent by Prince Bian to Runan is named Huang Xu. His father is Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng, who was famous at that time. His master is Xiao Tiangeng. He has a great background, and it is said that even the old immortal Nanhua is ashamed of himself."

As Wang Yue's disciple, he also had many sources of information. Before setting off for Chang'an, he had already figured out the identities of Zhao Yun and Huang Xu, including the forces behind them, and he also had a vague clue.

Except that Xiao Tian was too mysterious and didn't know much, he knew everything about Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun's long-dead third uncle.
