Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

Chapter 615 Changan’s reaction

Although the envoys sent by Cao Wei and Dong Wu to sow discord were killed by Ma Di, the general situation of the day was still spread.

The most important thing is that Sima Yi's back-up plan is much more than that. In a very short period of time, a nursery rhyme became popular in Luoyang.

This nursery rhyme is not long, but its meaning is very clear. In other words, if it is used as a prophecy, it is undoubtedly as difficult as the sentence "Liu Xiu will be emperor".

One of the sentences, "The Emperor is about to become emperor" makes the purpose even more obvious.

After all, apart from you, Ma Di, is there another person named Ma who has the ability to be the emperor?

Both Cao Wei and Soochow regarded the instigation of relations between Ma Di and Chang'an as their top priority. As long as the reincarnated overlord becomes ambitious about that position, everything will be fine.

As for whether Ma Di has this ambition... Whether it is Sima Yi or Sun Quan, ask yourself, it is impossible for you to reach that position without feeling at all.

Especially Sun Quan, who is now most interested in encouraging Ma Su to become independent.

However, no matter how Cao Wei and Dongwu provoked him, Ma Su showed no sign. Especially the officials and generals of the General's Mansion were warned by Ma Di.

Ma Su didn't want to wear the yellow robe, or he didn't want to wear it at this time.

There is a saying, if you have just traveled through time and don’t have what you want, it is theoretically the most cost-effective way to rebel and return home. And the reason why it's not cost-effective now is... I can win if I rebel!

Now with his status, he is no less than the emperor in Kanto, and he even holds a false ax. In addition, Zhuge Liang was still alive. Unless Ma Su had a problem in his mind, how could he choose this time to rebel?

However, Ma Di's simple warning to the people in the General's Mansion was obviously of little use. As the nursery rhyme gradually spreads, a group of somewhat ambitious people have begun to take action.

This group of people were the wealthy local people in Luoyang who were hostile to Ma Su.

Although this group of Luoyang rich people have been at odds with Ma Su these days, at this time, they are the first to be moved. Especially in recent years, Ma Su's reputation has given them great confidence.

Once Ma Di and Luoyang are based, whether they are independent or usurping the throne, it will be a great opportunity for them. So soon, Ma Di received inexplicable overtures from a lot of Luoyang's wealthy families.

"Hiss... just such a nursery rhyme has deceived so many careerists?"

Ma Su looked at the letters of goodwill piled up on his desk, as well as the vague words of advice in them. Probably as long as Ma Su expresses his position, a lot of people will rush to take sides.

The only thing that satisfied Ma Su was that his close generals did not make any comments about it. Jiang Wei, Deng Ai and others did not participate in this matter, which can be regarded as sharing a lot of worries for Ma Su.

There was nothing Ma Su could do about this matter, so he simply ignored it.

Rather than considering those careerists trying to persuade him to move in, Ma Su paid more attention to the next step in clearing his land.

During the period when the prince was giving lectures, Chen Zhi led the officials in Guanzhong to quickly complete the household registration census. The land deeds of the population controlled by the imperial court have been basically thoroughly investigated, and the prerequisites for clearing the land have been basically met.

During the half year that the prince was giving lectures, the Donggong Mansion also began to gradually open subjects and recruit officials. Many children from poor families who could read and write were recruited as county officials.

At present, both the files and manpower have been basically assembled. It just so happened that Cao Wei and Soochow were planning to fight, so he could take advantage of this opportunity to complete the work of clearing his father's land in Luoyang as soon as possible.

Only when the work of clearing the land is successfully completed can Sizhou's war machine start at full speed. Only with the massive manpower and material resources recovered from the wealthy clans could they devote all their energy to the Eastern Expedition.

There is only a duel between Wei and Wu... Just seeing that Cao Wei's general is Sima Zhao, Ma Su estimates that if nothing unexpected happens, this will most likely be another battle of Dongxing...

"Your Highness, we can't wait any longer. Let's start clearing the land as soon as possible." Ma Su made a special trip to the East Palace and suggested to Liu Xuan.

Hearing that Ma Di was so anxious, Liu Xuan asked with some doubts,

"My dear father, isn't this a little too hasty... Especially now that rumors about you are spreading all over Luoyang. You are not afraid of being misunderstood by your father..."

Clearing the land required the mobilization of a large amount of manpower, and even the Han troops stationed in various places had to be mobilized. If such a large-scale transfer causes misunderstanding in Chang'an...

"If you misunderstand, just misunderstand. For the sake of the common people in this world, how can you stop eating because of choking?" Ma Su shrugged, not caring at all.

"What's more, the Prime Minister is still here, and His Majesty is wise. It's just a few rumors. We should do whatever we need to do, there is no need to think so much."

Ma Su's easy-going attitude made Liu Xuan feel a little guilty.

My father-in-law gave up his life for a big man, and he didn't avoid suspicion or fear of death at all. On the contrary, I had been suspicious before... I couldn't even be considered a qualified apprentice, could I?

Of course, Chang'an would not be unaware of such a big news in Luoyang. This nursery rhyme of "The Emperor is about to become emperor" soon spread to the Chang'an court.

After hearing about a series of events in Guandong, the whole court was talking about it. Many ministers who had a good relationship with Ma Su were worried, fearing that there would be some turmoil.

On the Chancellor's desk, Yang Zhun suddenly stood up and suggested to Liu Chan that the Central Guards Yao Hu and others should be transferred from outside, and the prime minister should be transferred back from Jingzhou. The reason is that the affairs in Chang'an are complicated and the prime minister still needs to come back and take charge.

It's a good thing to say, but everyone knows its deeper meaning.

Yao Hu is Ma Su's confidant and is currently in charge of the most critical Northern Army defense in Chang'an. As for the Kansai states, except for Guanzhong, all the other places are inextricably linked to Ma Di.

Especially Longyou and Liuzhen, which are Ma Su's iron ticket warehouses.

Let’s take a look at the components of the Four Conquests and Four Towns: General Deng Ai who conquered the west, General Zhang Ni who conquered the west, General Shu Ji who conquered the north, General Jiang Wei who conquered the north, General Liu Yin who conquered the south, General Xiang Chong who conquered the south, and General Ma who conquered the east. Dai, Zhendong General Wang Ping.

All Ma Su's confidants, and 70% of the Han army were under Ma Su's control. Under such circumstances, Yang Zhun couldn't be blamed for talking too much.

The Yang family didn't want to have another Cao Cao appear in Guandong just a few years after joining Ji Han...

However, when faced with this situation, Liu Chan immediately became furious!

"Yang Aiqing! What do you mean by this? Can I think that you are doubting the intentions of the general who has been born and died for the Han Dynasty for more than ten years?" Liu Chan's face turned cold, and his eyes when he looked at Yang Zhun were extremely cold.

"General, he has been serving the imperial court for more than ten years and has been killed several times. Do you want to tell me that such a minister wants to rebel?"

Not to mention Yang Zhun, even Jiang Wan, who was about to say a few words to Ma Di, was stunned by Liu Chan's huge reaction.

The last time I saw His Majesty have such a big reaction was when he beheaded Li Miao.
