Three Kingdoms

The birds in the sky are flying, but the people on the ground are still jumping around.

Even if the chaos caused by Huang Wan in Xu County is extinguished, it cannot immediately return to its previous "perfect" appearance.

Cao Jun dispatched, wiped out some "mobs" and captured some "robbers".

Suddenly there were a lot of people.

Those who died the most were, of course, the "mobs" outside the city.

Han people have traditions.

No matter how suffering the people are, it is just suffering.

The officials of Xu County faced the people with loud and loud voices that shook the world, "What's the fuss about?" Who is not suffering? ! We all suffer! Everyone needs to be considerate, understanding, and supportive no matter how hard you suffer and endure it! Without a country, where would a home come from? ! Look at that Chen San, can't you just tell him if you have any problems? Don't look for trouble! Now the reasonable ones have become unreasonable, and their heads are gone! Why bother? right? 』

The officials on the other side are also cooperating, "On behalf of the Han Dynasty, the imperial court, and the Xu County Yamen, I give you a serious warning!" You are not allowed to maliciously destroy the order of Xu County and disturb the public security! Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk! 』

Ordinary people are obedient.

The officials, one red and one white, looked at each other and smiled after finishing their opera.

But there are still some undercurrents surging, and as the situation changes, it also changes.

Huang Wan's mansion was on fire, and there were some burnt corpses.

Some people said that Huang Wan died in the fire, others said that Huang Wan was not dead, and some said that everything was a treacherous plot by the Qiaoqi...

Rumor has it that from ancient times to the present, it has to move up and down together in order to be powerful, otherwise it is just a rumor. It's like the censor's memorial. If the superiors pay attention to it, it will be a sharp sword. If the superiors turn a blind eye, it will be worse than a dog's tail grass. If it is shaken too much, it will feel uncomfortable. .

In the past, only the common people participated in the rumors about Prime Minister Cao. Although the common people were very happy when they told the news, generally speaking, the timeliness and dissemination efficiency were very poor.

But if the participants are not just ordinary people, then the speed of stirring and the effectiveness of the response are completely different.

The word "process" is absolutely wonderful.

It can be a day or a year. Sometimes, after procrastination and procrastination, there is no follow-up for several months, let alone several years. But sometimes, preliminary results are obtained within a few days, or even a few hours, and the handling of the parties involved is announced. Coming down...

Just like the rumors that happened in Xuchang this time.

It started with rumors about Cao Cao.

The nobles kept their mouths shut and tucked their tails between their legs. On the contrary, the emperor Liu Xie was very interested in the rumors about Cao Cao. He first "refuted the rumors" in a high-profile manner. Then naturally, the more he refuted the rumors, the more people spread the rumors, and they quickly spread. open.

Liu Xie was very proud of this, but he didn't know that he had fallen into the trap of others.

For Liu Xie, his actual control over government affairs is basically zero.

It's just that the more something is missing, the more he desires something. Now as Liu Xie grows older, he is more and more eager to truly realize his dream when he was a boy and become a great man who can rejuvenate like Guangwu. "Excellent" emperor.

He is the reincarnation of Guang Wuxiu.

At least Guang Wuxiu's spirit in heaven will protect him.

Although Liu Xie vaguely knew that the so-called emperor and the so-called blessing were actually just that, this idea had become a kind of "belief" for him, just like a believer's belief in a clay statue of a god. Just like worshiping, it is a kind of spiritual persistence that does not allow others to criticize or listen to other people's advice.

Perhaps this persistence is all he has left.

This world may be big, but his world is small.

The current world can be said to be a prison.

Liu Xie wanted to break this cage, and he worked hard to do so. He recruited a series of ministers he considered loyal, such as Shisun Rui and Huang Wan, in an attempt to fight against Cao Cao and form his own power.

This time Huang Wan's decisive action surprised Liu Xie, and was also very sad. Liu Xie thought Huang Wan was dead at first, but later he heard that Huang Wan had defected. After feeling less sad, he became more doubtful.

If you have doubts for a lifetime, your attitude will no longer be firm. Even though Liu Xie verbally defended Huang Wan, he did not forcibly characterize Huang Wan's matter, hold a posthumous ceremony, or give awards.

As for the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, which one is not smarter or cunning than Liu Xie?

Seeing this, Shisun Rui was a little excited and closed his eyes and mouth.

The emperor Liu Xie himself felt that he was very good, and of course he was. At least compared to the previous Eastern Han emperors, Liu Xie was willing to learn and grow, but he had been "separated" for a long time.

He was not only separated from the people, but also separated from the officials.

Anyway, I have been away every year, so I don’t care about being away for a while longer.

It's like anal prolapse. Of course it's painful, but if you plug it back in, you can hold on for as many days as you can...

Liu Xie didn't know that what he needed to do more was to stand up and lead, instead of looking for opportunities to take advantage of the situation all day long. It's like a company boss holding a meeting who has no opinion or strategy and just asks his subordinates what to do about something. Although the boss may feel that he is observing the public sentiment and letting his subordinates use their talents, in fact, in the eyes of the subordinates, such behavior means that either the boss is incompetent and has no idea, or the boss is preparing to catch someone who takes the blame. Pot.

Liu Xie does not want to deal with Cao Cao. Well, in fact, all the imperial powers do not want to deal with the prime minister. This is natural. But everyone can understand that Liu Xie wants to mess with Cao Cao, but you can't say that you should do it to me every day!

Isn’t Huang Wan on board?

The results of it?

As soon as Liu Xie's attitude was ambiguous, everyone immediately stopped.

After all, the people in the world only know the family but not the court.

Because Liu Xie had no one to teach him, he could only explore on his own, so he didn't fully understand what was going on. Moreover, he had no good way to deal with the new changes, so he could only be in the palace. Then he went to seek spiritual support. After cooing in the Ancestral Temple for a while, he returned to the apse and studied the historical trajectory of Emperor Guangwu's fortune over and over again. The more he studied, the more I discovered that he is actually very similar to Emperor Guangwu now!

First of all, Emperor Guangwu lost his parents when he was young.

Liu Xie silently made a tick in his heart.

Secondly, Emperor Guangwu died again.

Liu Xie ticked the box again.

Then, Emperor Guangwu first married Yin Lihua, and later married the daughter of Hebei Goudahu, oh, Guo Dahu.

Liu Xie thought about it and made a tick.

With three hooks in hand, I have the world!

Then Liu Xie continued to think.

Liu Xie discovered a major problem that his previous strategy had missed.

Chang'an!

Guang Wuxiu did something in Hebei and proclaimed himself emperor only after Emperor Gengshi arrived in Chang'an!

Oops, I am still too impatient...

The sweat on Liu Xie's forehead suddenly broke out.

Cao Cao should have been allowed to attack Chang'an first and then take action himself!

This big cross almost destroyed all his previous hooks!

Liu Xie suddenly became a little panicked. He stood up and walked around in the small area of ​​​​the back hall.

Don't be anxious, he comforted himself, and then thought that the most important thing now is to let Cao Cao attack Chang'an! Just like Emperor Gengshi in history, he entered Chang'an in the second year and was defeated in the third year!

Then, on the side of the Red Eyebrow Army, there are also proud generals such as Wei Xiao and others...

meaning!

And be saved!

While Liu Xie himself has not completely opposed Cao Cao, he cannot attract too much attention from Cao Cao, but must first encourage Cao Cao to attack Chang'an!

Let the Red Eyebrow Army and the Gengshi Army stir together in a pot, add fire, boil water, and start stewing!

Only by letting Cao Cao and Fei Qian fall into the quagmire of fighting each other can the Han Dynasty have a glimmer of hope, which was the way to revive Emperor Guangwu back then!

Liu Xie raised his head. He finally found the vitality left by Guang Wuxiu in the fog, the shining line of wisdom!

If not for avoiding attracting attention, Liu Xie would have even wanted to sing a song on the spot, a gale song or something.

So, the next day, Liu Xie changed his original attitude and strategy at the court meeting, and began to say that Cao Cao was a loyal minister, and suspected that Qi Qi Fei Qian had ulterior motives. Now only Prime Minister Cao can defend the territory, how can he spread rumors at will? What about breaking the heart of a hero? As for the resignation, don’t mention it again. After all, the world is not at peace now, and we can’t live without Prime Minister Cao!

When Liu Xie said these words, he was actually a little embarrassed. When facing the gazes of the officials, Liu Xie felt that his ears might be slightly red, but it didn't matter. Anyway, with the crown blocking it, the officials would not be able to see carefully, and then he insisted on speaking. After finishing those unintentional words, Liu Xie was surprised to find that the officials below the Dan level seemed to have agreed on the tone in an instant, and picked up Liu Xie's words almost without any hesitation.

Regarding Cao Cao's evaluation, one second he was still too old to be reused. In the blink of an eye, the next second he became a role model for all officials. His achievements were shining and it would not be a problem to work for another ten or twenty years.

At the same time, almost all the officials were worried and anxious about the big man's current situation. There were even several officials with dark circles under their eyes who "tested their balls" and said that they were really tossing and turning and couldn't sleep at night because of this matter. Well, of course, these officials will never say that they were tossing and turning, but they were actually learning some nonsense from some teachers, and they were busy trying their balls all night.

It's so busy!

So much so that occasionally dozing off during court meetings cannot be considered their fault...

Do the descendants of the Shandong gentry really care about the Han Dynasty?

hehe.

However, at this moment, they stood with Liu Xie.

This is not the powerful appeal of Emperor Liu Xie, but the fact that these gentry children always only care about their own hats and their own interests, so how can the Shandong gentry children care whether Cao Cao can really defeat Fei Qian?

Won, good.

It’s okay to lose.

It’s okay to neither lose nor win.

In the early years, the Shandong nobles opposed Cao Cao's war.

Because fighting at that time meant that the Shandong nobles had to give Cao Cao more money.

Even if it is this kind of levy, adjustment, or various wages that appear in later generations, in fact, most of them will be passed on to ordinary people in the end, and large families only need to bear a small part of the losses...

Even if it is such a small loss, the Shandong nobles do not want to bear it.

The methods of the nobles in the Han Dynasty were still relatively rudimentary, and they were not as innovative as the powerful local wealthy families in later feudal dynasties. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, if the court wanted to temporarily increase taxes, local officials and wealthy families would be happy and happy! Because they know the opportunity to make a fortune is coming! Every state policy during the Ming and Qing Dynasties was a new reason for them to exploit the people.

Relatively speaking, the Han Shandong gentry, who are relatively simple at the moment, initially opposed Cao Cao's continued war just to avoid being drafted. However, they soon discovered that something was wrong. When Cao Cao was no longer in contact with the outside world, they turned around. The gun head is ready to point inward!

It’s really tangerine and wheat peel...

Especially after Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun teamed up to deal with the Xiahou clan of the Cao family, many Shandong nobles felt that the sky was getting cloudy and the clouds were rolling, and they didn't know when the thunderbolt would fall on the unlucky guy's head!

But this time, Cao Cao's brother-in-law, Ren Jun, was seriously injured!

This is a dangerous signal. With a ding-dong sound, almost the whole place lights up in red!

Under such circumstances, diverting Cao Cao's attention and letting Cao Cao fall into the dispute with Fei Qian became the better choice of the lesser of two harms. After all, in the past few years of stability, it can be considered that I have collected some money and spent it... No, if I go out for some expenses, is it considered that I have spent money to avoid disasters?

At the same time, if the Cao family and the Xiahou family want to win, it is obvious that in the current Shandong environment, these two surnames alone cannot defeat Fei Qian. Therefore, Cao Cao must seek the support of the Shandong nobles, and once he reaches out, Now, if you open your mouth, will it be easier to speak? Do you want to make more space?

The most important point is that of course Cao Cao doesn't have to worry about ordinary thieves and bandits. But with a scale like Feiqian, does Mr. Cao Cao have to follow the army all the way?

So does it mean that the Shandong nobles at the rear have more space and time to make adjustments?

As long as the Cao family and the Xiahou family have to give up some power, the Shandong nobles can play them in eighteen ways, completely making these powerful little ladies the shape of the Shandong nobles!

What?

lose?

How could it be possible to lose?

It is impossible to lose in this life...

Well, okay, even if the Cao family and the Xiahou family lose, the big deal is just to change the lord, move the butt in the direction, and change the person who pays the taxes, what's the big deal?

And even if you really want to change the direction of kowtow, you can divide the property of the Cao family and the Xiahou family as soon as possible, eat the fat and fat, and just leave some superficial fleshy shells for the unscrupulous person in Guanzhong That’s it.

More likely, the Shandong gentry believed that it was a fight between two tigers, with both sides losing.

Then the opportunity is here!

The ones that declined were Guanzhong and Yanzhou and Heluo, which were closest to the battlefield, and both Jizhou and Yuzhou were actually relatively far behind. Therefore, wouldn't it be more wonderful that both Cao Cao and Fei Qian would suffer losses?

When the time comes, those who pick peaches can come up to pick peaches, and those who poke chrysanthemums can prepare to poke chrysanthemums.

As the saying goes, "the chrysanthemums are gone, but the soap smells", so why not fight it?

Fight!

Fight quickly!

Anyway, the Cao family and the Xiahou family now control the military, and the Shandong nobles cannot interfere with the military soldiers. However, this means that the vast majority of the soldiers lost in the war are the core capital of the Cao family and the Xiahou family!

It's best to defeat all the Qingzhou soldiers in Lao Cao's hands in one battle!

When Cao Cao has no capital left...

Humph, then wouldn't the Shandong nobles, who have the manpower, material and financial resources in their hands, be able to pinch Cao Cao's balls? When the time comes, ask Lao Cao to kneel down and call daddy, and put on eighteen different postures!

Liu Xie, who was in the Chongde Hall, looked at the officials below the Dan level with some confusion. Some of them could not keep up with their changes in pace.

A while ago, you guys were...

Why is this so fat? !

What about the script?

If you change the script randomly like this, can this movie still be filmed? !

The key is that Liu Xie is often the last one to know the news of the drama change, even when he arrives at the scene.

Liu Xie squeezed the armrests of the throne tightly, and on the surface he had to pretend to be calm, strategizing, and having everything under control, because he believed that only in this way could he convince all the officials. , Only then can we truly become the second reincarnation of ZTE, Guang Wuxiu.

In a daze, he said goodbye to the set... Oh, after leaving Chongde Hall, Liu Xie didn't even know how he came back.

It would be wrong to say that there was no result at all. At least Ren Jun was injured. Now the city guard is temporarily replaced by another person, Yingchuan Zhongyao. Zhong Yao was also a veteran who followed Liu Xie all the way back east. He was not young and his ability was not bad, so Liu Xie approved of it.

Of course the Yingchuan people have no objections.

Cao Cao's faction also knows that the relationship between the Yingchuan faction and them is naturally closer than that of the Jizhou faction or other regions, so the Cao family and the Xiahou family don't have any big objections...

Then the emperor and the officials seemed to have reached an agreement that Cao Cao could not resign.

As the mainstay of the Han Dynasty and the leader of hundreds of officials, Cao Cao certainly had to show his value. How could he continue to conquer the inconspicuous Wuhuan people? Instead, we should face the biggest cancer of the big man!

The Han Dynasty is not at peace and the world is not yet settled. How can Cao Cao retreat so easily? Cao Cao must go and conquer the traitor who likes to cause trouble the most. He actually carried out assassinations in Xu County, killed Cao Cao's brother-in-law, and violated the etiquette and law of the Han Dynasty, Fei Qian!

All kinds of things.

This made it seem like there was harmony in the court.

As a result, the situation in Xu County suddenly seemed to be unified with one voice!

The chaos in Xu County, everyone's deaths and injuries, various charges and sins, after the strange silence, were all invariably and unanimously added to Fei Qian.

These are all done by Fei Qian!

In the past, there were thieves from Xiliang, but today there are thieves from China!

You can drive away thieves in one day, but you cannot prevent them in a thousand days!

Now all the Hussar spies have come to Xuchang to show off. This uncle can bear it, but the aunt can't!

Come on, pickup...

No, come on, Prime Minister Cao!
