But why did Liu Bei feel disappointed when he heard Xun Zhen say that Liu Xie had decided to agree to move the capital to Yingchuan?

Xun Zhen said that he came just right, could he not come just right? It was because he heard the news that Zhong Yao came to see Xun Zhen, and guessed that Zhong Yao should come to discuss with Xun Zhen about moving the capital again, so he rushed over in a hurry. , I want to ask Xun Zhen to take the initiative to invite Ying, and I also make a list to the court, suggesting that Liu Xie move the capital to Yingchuan, so as to please Xun Zhen, and at the same time make him in the eyes of Liu Xie, and these two The purpose was more important to Liu Bei, and what he wanted to achieve was the second one—this was exactly the method he came up with after thinking hard for the past two days to attract Liu Xie's attention. But he never expected that Liu Xie had already agreed to move the capital to Yingchuan before he made this move, so he wouldn't be disappointed!

Even though he was disappointed, Liu Bei had a palace in the end. He didn't show the slightest bit of disappointment. Instead, he showed joy and said, "Has the sage agreed to move the capital to Yingchuan? Duke Ming, this is really nice!" Xun Zhen's heart suddenly moved, and a thought jumped into his head, but the disappointment really turned into joy like the joy on his face.

Xun Zhen just asked him to go back to Yingchuan to prepare for the ride, so if he can do this job extremely well, and Liu Xie is very satisfied after Liu Xie arrives in Yingchuan, will he be summoned by Liu Xie for this? ?

If he could be summoned, wouldn't he have been seeking to see this wish, but he would have nowhere to go after stepping through the iron shoes, and it would have taken no effort to get it?

Disappointment first, then joy. The mood changed too quickly, but Liu Bei's face didn't show any abnormality. He covered his joy and asked Xun Zhen, saying, "Dare to ask Ming Gong, I don't know when Bei Yi will be first. Going back to Yingchuan to prepare for the welcome ride?"

Xun Zhen turned to look at Zhong Yao. , Calculating and said: "Yuanchang, the saint moved to Yingchuan, this is a major event, and there is a lot of preparation that needs to be done."

Zhong Yao said with a smile, "Isn't it true? The residences of the sage and the concubines in the harem, as well as the eunuchs and maids in the harem, need to be arranged in advance. Even if a new palace cannot be built in a hurry, it should be there. There must be a meeting place for the hundreds of officials and the court, and there are hundreds of officials in the imperial court, many family members follow, and the residences of the officials and their families must be prepared in advance. Also, so many people come to Yingchuan all at once, The daily food and other needs are not a small amount, and it is necessary to prepare at least one month's expenses. As the place where the saints move, there must be no guards and guards. Approval, there are so many things, there are indeed many things that need to be prepared."

Xun Zhen looked at Liu Bei again and said with a smile: "Xuande, Bo Fu and I are combined, forty to fifty thousand people, and it costs too much. Since the sage has agreed to move the capital to Yingchuan, I think about this matter. , let's do it as soon as possible, it's not too late, you will leave tomorrow and go back to Yingchuan first. Basically what you need to prepare is what Yuan Chang said just now, you have heard it, the time is tight and the task is very heavy, but I believe You can do it well, but you can't make any mistakes."

——Forty to fifty thousand people, referring not only to the soldiers, but also to the civilians who accompanied the army.

Liu Bei replied respectfully, "Don't worry, Duke Ming, he will do everything he can, but he has a question, dare to ask Ming to publicize it."

Xun Zhen said, "Do you want to ask the sage to move up to the county of Yingchuan?"

Liu Bei is respectful.

Sun Ce didn't say which county in Yingchuan he planned to move Liu Xie to, but Xun Zhen had already made a choice.

Xun Zhen said, "I have discussed with Zhicai, Fengxiao, Duke Chen, Yuanchang, Zimei, etc. Among the counties in Yingchuan, Xu County is the most suitable for His Majesty to temporarily move."

Liu Bei said, "Xu County?"

Although he has not been the prefect of Yingchuan for a long time, Yingchuan is not very big at first, and he already knows the situation of each county very well. After thinking about it, it is really as Xunzhen said, only Xu County is the most suitable.

Why is Xu County the most suitable?

First of all, the overall landform of Yingchuan County can be divided into two parts: southwest and northeast. These parts of the southwest are mountainous and adjacent to Nanyang County. These two points alone make the counties in the southwest unsuitable for Liu Xie’s relocation. Liu Xie built a new palace; it was close to Nanyang County, and now Nanyang is still under Yuan Shu's control, and it is not very safe.

Therefore, Liu Xie's moving place can only be selected in the southeast part.

The counties in the southeast, such as Yingyin, Linying, Changshe, Yanling, Xinji, etc., all face water, and are very close to the river. If the water is too close, it will inevitably get wet, and because the side of the city is the river, It also makes the outside of the city not open enough, and these counties are not suitable. Apart from these counties, there is only Xu County left.

The surrounding area of ​​Xuxian County is open and the land is fertile. If it is used as a new capital, first, it will not be a problem to garrison troops, and secondly, it will not be a problem to build a palace for Liu Xie in the future. The harvests will be used to supply the surrounding garrison, the emperor and the harem, as well as the daily needs of the officials and their families. In terms of security, this place is close to the rear, away from Chenliu in Yanzhou, Runan and Chen Guodu in Yuzhou. not far,

Then he said, why not let Liu Xie move to Yangzhai, the county governor of Yingchuan County?

As the county government, Yangzhai is obviously stronger than Xu County in terms of prosperity. There are two reasons why Yangzhai was not chosen.

One is also because the county seat is close to the river, and the county seat of Yangzhai is located on the south bank of the Yingshui River, close to the Yingshui River. It is located in Nanyang County, and its north is very close to Hanoi County, bordering Xinzheng County in Hanoi County. Whether it is something in the north or in the south, Yangzhai is the first to bear the brunt.

Just like when Xun Zhen was thinking about where to welcome Liu Xie, he found that he could only choose Yingchuan County. The choice made is the same, only Xu County is selected.

These need not be said.

Liu Bei said: "Xu County is indeed the best choice. But I dare to ask Duke Ming again. After preparing to return to Yingchuan, everything else is ready, except for the specific preparations for the welcome, such as where to ask the sage to live temporarily. Wait, how do I arrange it?"

Xun Zhen said: "Chen Yi will come back to Yingchuan with you. I have already agreed with Zhicai and other ministers on these specific preparations. Chen Yi knows it. When the time comes, you and Han Ji will listen to his opinions more."

Liu Bei replied, "No."

...

The leader returned to Yingchuan first, and did the errand to prepare for the arrival. Liu Bei respectfully said goodbye, and slowly returned to his own department.

Entering his tent, there was no one in the tent. He clenched his fist and waved it fiercely. After that, the originally smooth pace turned into a brisk pace, turning around the tent a few times with his hands behind his back, he thought to himself. : "This opportunity must not be missed! All preparations for the welcome ride, I must make it perfect, so as to win the favor of the Holy One!"

There was a sound of footsteps, and someone went outside the tent to ask to see you.

Liu Bei listened

The person who asked to see it was Zhuo Ying's voice. He quickly stopped his footsteps, sat down on the table, put on a calm demeanor, and said slowly, "Please come in."

Zhuo Ying entered the tent, bowed down and saluted, got up after the ceremony, asked Liu Bei, and said, "Ming Gong, is Zhendong okay?"

Zhuo Ying was an old confidant who had been with Liu Bei since Zhuo County, and planned to take the initiative to ask Ying to write a letter to Liu Xie, asking Liu Xie to move the capital to Yingchuan. Among the officials under Liu Bei's account, Zhuo Ying was the only one who knew about it.

[The book chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend who I have known for ten years, Mimi read! It's so easy to use, I rely on this reading aloud to pass the time before driving and before going to bed, you can download it here]

Liu Bei said calmly, "I heard that my brother told me that the sage has already agreed. Moving the capital to Yingchuan, but I don't need to report again."

Zhuo Ying frowned and said, "The sage has already agreed? Isn't that Ming Gong's thought in vain?"

Liu Bei touched his smooth chin and said, "My brother just gave me a task."

Zhuo Ying asked, "Dare to ask Duke Ming, what's the matter?"

Liu Bei touched his smooth chin again and said, "My brother ordered me to return to Yingchuan tomorrow to make preliminary preparations for welcoming the saint."

Zhuo Ying was stunned, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said with great joy, "Congratulations to Duke Ming, this is the will of God!"

Liu Bei touched his smooth chin and said slowly: "This assignment is not only my brother's order, but also related to His Majesty's entry into Yingchuan. It is a very important matter. I will go all out and do it well."

Zhuo Ying was in high spirits and said, "What Duke Ming said is very true."

Liu Bei ordered: "You will pass on my military orders later. After I return to Yingchuan tomorrow, Chengding and Shiguan will take care of everything in the department for the time being~www.wuxiaspot.com~ You and I will go back to Yingchuan together. ."

Outstanding promise.

Liu Bei's troops also had one or two thousand people. If he brought his troops back to Yingchuan, the speed on the road would be slower, so this time he returned to Yingchuan first, and he would not bring troops.

Liu Bei said again: "Also, you and I will go to see Sun Yuzhou later. My brother told me that I must inform Sun Yuzhou before departure."

Outstanding promise.

After talking with Liu Bei for a while, Zhuo Ying went out to convey Liu Bei's orders to Chengding and Shiguan.

...

Sun Cegang also knew that Liu Xie had agreed to move the capital to Yingchuan, and that it was Chen Yi, the chief clerk who came here specially by Xunzhen's order.

After sending Chen Yi away, Sun Ce returned to the tent, opened the box on the case, and took out a letter from it.

This letter was written by him in Runan, temporarily presiding over various government affairs in Yuzhou, and it was just delivered to him. After learning that Xun Zhen asked Zhong Yao to help convince Liu Xie to move to Yingchuan, Sun Ce wrote a letter to Gong Chou, informing Gong Chou about the matter and asking Gong Chou for his opinion. Gong Qiu said this letter was a reply to Sun Ce.

Opening the letter, Sun Ce read it again. He raised his face and fell into deep thought.

Cheng Pu and Huang Gai were present.

Cheng Pu stroked his beard and asked, "Dare to ask Duke Ming, what are you thinking?"

Sun Ce came back to his senses, lowered his eyes, looked at Cheng Pu, looked at Huang Gai, and then looked at the letter of public enmity in his hand, and said, "As it is said in the book of Long History, if the sage removes his sword, Chuan, then there will be one advantage and one disadvantage for me. I suggest that I choose one of the two states of Jing and Yang early to get it quickly, and I also suggest that Yangzhou is better than Jingzhou. I am thinking, if I use this strategy of long history, will I not It will make the town unhappy."
