On the second day after Liu Zhan became prime minister, he sent a letter to all states and counties to affirm the decree, advocating that all states reduce taxes and purge the rule of officials. At the same time, Liu Zhan wrote a letter to Xun Yu, asking Xun Yu to mobilize all the students of Yingchuan Academy to serve in the DPRK and China to assist Liu Zhan in handling state affairs.

Liu Zhan didn't care much about the reaction of the states, what he had to do now was to stabilize the situation first, find Liu Wei as soon as possible, and retreat to Yingchuan and wait for the wheel of history to continue to move forward. For the decaying dynasty of the Eastern Han Dynasty, even if Liu Zhan did his best, he was powerless to return to the sky, at most it was to temporarily stabilize the situation, although Liu Zhan knew the direction of history, but the butterfly effect caused by his arrival has been highlighted, in recent years, the discovery trajectory of many things has deviated, Liu Zhan does not know, if he continues to impose interference, what other events will occur that are different from historical records.

Within five days or so, all prefectures and counties received Liu Zhan's "Statement of Decree".

For a time, the world shook, and the reactions of various states and counties varied. There are those who write to congratulate, those who send people to give gifts from thousands of miles away, those who disobey the yang and the yin, those who openly oppose it, and those who are insulting......

Among them, the two Yuan brothers reacted the most fiercely. After Yuan Shao received Liu Zhan's decree, he was so angry that his teeth itched, and he immediately summoned the four strategists under his account, Feng Ji, Shen Pei, Guo Tu, and Xu You, to discuss countermeasures. During the Yellow Turban Uprising, Yuan Shao followed Liu Zhan for a period of time, trying to seek some benefits for the Yuan family from Liu Zhan, but it turned out to be boring, and then Yuan Shao was driven away by Liu Zhan, since then, Yuan Shao hated Liu Zhan, when Liu Zhan was first crowned the king of Yingchuan, Yuan Shao was so angry that he didn't sleep well for three days and three nights, and now, Liu Zhan actually became the prime minister of the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop, how could Yuan Shao not hate! While being angry at the injustice of God, Yuan Shao calmed down and carefully analyzed his current situation, he keenly grasped that the world would change, and his Yuan Shao's opportunity might come.

After everyone arrived, Yuan Shao said straight to the point: "I brought you here today, mainly because of one thing - Liu Zhan, the king of Yingchuan, appointed himself prime minister, you think, how should I deal with it?" ”

"Huh?" Guo Tu's eyes widened, and he said with a look of surprise, "I can't see that King Yingchuan has such ambitions!" ”

"Hmph...... Isn't it? He used to just hide deeply, but now the fox's tail is finally revealed. Yuan Shao sneered, agreeing with Guo Tu's words.

Xu You observed the words, rolled his eyes, and said leisurely: "Liu Zhan's foundation is still unstable at this time, and the lord only needs to accept it in the face, secretly cultivate power, and wait for the opportunity." ”

"Well, Ziyuan is right, it's a good idea to be false and wronged for the time being." Yuan Shao nodded in approval.

The judge sneered, and said proudly: "Why do you want to do that hypocritical thing, lord, now that there are 50,000 soldiers, what are you afraid of him doing?" Just ignore him, what can he do? Besides, how many of the states and counties are now united with the imperial court? ”

"What Zhengnan said also makes sense, if I have a tough attitude, Liu Zhan may give me a bigger official in order to appease Yu Wu. Hehe...... In that case, it's fun. ”

After listening to the words of the trial, Yuan Shao smiled and drew inferences.

Feng Ji looked at Yuan Shaomou's constant appearance, he shook his head and said his opinion: "My lord, Liu Zhan doesn't seem to be the self-appointed prime minister, but was jointly elected by hundreds of officials in the court. According to the law of the Han Dynasty, Liu Zhan's appearance is justified, but there has never been such a thing before. ”

"Justified? That meta diagram thinks, how should I deal with it? Yuan Shao's face was solemn, obviously not liking Feng Ji's statement.

"Bow your head and wait for the opportunity, and at the same time send a congratulatory gift to show your sincerity."

Feng Ji blurted out.

"What?" Yuan Shao patted the case and said loudly, "This ...... How can this be, in case Liu Zhan is ...... like before" Yuan Shao said and remembered the snub he had received when he left Liu Zhan, and he suddenly became angry, but he didn't want to say his troubles in front of his subordinates, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Let me please Liu Zhan, where is my face, and where is the face of the Yuan family?" ”

"Lord......" Feng Ji also wanted to tell Yuan Shao about the pros and cons of the matter.

Yuan Shao didn't want to listen to it anymore, he interrupted Feng Ji's words, and said in a cold voice: "Yuan Tu doesn't need to say more, I have made up my mind, I will never bow to Liu Zhan, not once......"

"The lord is wise!" The judge stood up and bowed, and said proudly, "The protégés of the Yuan family are all over the world, and there are two adults in the court, Sikong and Situ, who are in power, what are you afraid of him doing as a little king of Yingchuan?" ”

"Jeongnam is right! What are you afraid of him for? I Yuan Shao was born without knowing how to write the word 'afraid'. ”

Yuan Shao stood up as soon as he took the case, looking high-spirited.

Xu You wanted to say something more, but when he saw Yuan Shao's appearance, he kept silent.

Guo Tu got up and echoed: "The lord is wise! The big husband does something and doesn't do it, and the lord is really and the big husband too! ”

"Haha! Okay, since that's the case, let's discuss how to lay it out next. ”

Yuan Shao laughed, full of spring breeze.

……

Nanyang County.

Yuan Shu received that Liu Zhan was elected as prime minister by hundreds of officials, and he was so angry that he scolded his mother, and summoned his two major strategists to the mansion to discuss how to deal with it.

Yuan Shu looked at Yan Xiang and Yang Hong, gritted his teeth and said, "Are all the officials in the court mediocre officials?" How could Liu Zhan be elected as the prime minister? Where did they place my Yuan family? ”

"The lord is angry, Sikong and Situ are also in the court, you might as well write to the two adults and ask about the whole story."

Yang Hong arched his hand and comforted.

Yuan Shu exhaled a breath of turbidity, nodded and said, "Well, this matter will be handed over to you, write a letter as soon as possible." After speaking, he secretly slandered himself: Okay, you Yang Hong, didn't you turn around and say that I can't speak? Am I wrong? The officials of the DPRK and China are a bunch of philistines!

"Yes! Lord. Yang Hong arched his hand and said, after speaking, he saw that Yuan Shu's face was not very good, and his heart was the same, and then said, "Today, the only people who can be prime ministers are Sikong and Situ. "Bow to the end.

"Not bad!" Yuan Shuteng stood up and said confidently, "However, my father and uncle are too old to work excessively, but there are still people in my Yuan family who can be the prime minister, why don't they promote me as the prime minister, I am willing to work for the state affairs." ”

"The lord is wise! The officials in the court are really mediocre officials, and they don't even know good looks. Yang Hong arched his hand and said, with a serious face.

The two sang and talked in harmony, Yan Xiang on the side couldn't stand it anymore, bowed his hand, and said: "Lord, Liu Zhan is by no means an idle person, and he should not be taken lightly. ”

"Huh?" Yuan Shu's face changed, a little reluctant, he looked directly at Yan Xiang and asked, "What is he capable of?" It's just a decline...... Cough...... Didn't you just kill Dong Zhuo's old thief? That's not enough for him to be commensurate. ”

Seeing Yuan Shu's thunderous appearance, Yan Xiang was a little helpless, and said bluntly: "Hasn't the lord heard of the record of Liu Zhan, the king of Yingchuan, when he pacified the Yellow Turban anti-thieves? ”

"Huh? Didn't you just kill a few rebellious farmers? What's the big deal! ”

Yuan Shu disagreed, and ridiculed each other.

"The lord is wise, when the Yellow Turban rebelled, the lord also went out with the army and killed countless Yellow Turban thieves." Yang Hong gave an example of circumstantial evidence for Yuan Shu on the side.

"Yang Hong! Hugh to confuse the lord! Yan Xiang glared at Yang Hong and scolded.

"You...... What are you! Isn't what I'm saying true? Yan Xiang, why did you erase the merits of the lord! What is your heart? Yang Hong's hands trembled with anger, he didn't expect Yan Xiang to scold him on the spot, without saving any face.

This, put on anyone's body, can't bear it.

"That's it! Stop arguing! Get down to business. Yuan Shu slapped the case and shouted. The strategists under him pinched up, this is what Yuan Shu is willing to see, this is the emperor's technique that Yuan Shu cares more about, so that he can balance it and show his wisdom.

Yuan Shu coughed lightly and said, "Liu Zhan, how should I deal with it, you two have an idea." ”

"Lord, since Liu Zhan is unbearable, of course he won't admit it. The lord only needs to send a message to the states to denounce Liu Zhan, and the states and counties will inevitably respond. ”

Yang Hong arched his hand and said first.

"Good! It is reasonable, and it has won my heart. ”

The corners of Yuan Shu's mouth turned upwards and said.

"My lord! No, Liu Zhan said that the prime minister is the will of the people, and the lord can't rashly oppose it, in that case, it will definitely damage the prestige of the lord. Yan Xiang's face was anxious, and he arched his hand and said.

"Don't say it anymore, opposing Liu Zhan will just increase my prestige."

Yuan Shu's face turned cold, and he scolded Yan Xiang.

Seeing Yan Xiang deflated, Yang Hong's heart was dark.

"Lord, in the current situation, it is reasonable to support Liu Zhan with great fanfare, and then secretly recruit troops and horses, so as to wait for the opportunity." Yan Xiang said eagerly.

……

Chenliujun.

Cao Cao patted the case and sighed: "There is such a thing!" I knew that killing a Dong Zhuo would have such a big benefit, and I would have made a move a long time ago! It's really cheap Liu Zhan, alas-mistakes......"

"Haha...... The general's words are not true. ”

Cheng Yu stroked his beard and smiled.

"Oh? Zhongde may as well be clear. Cao Cao looked puzzled.

"General, Liu Zhan is a good looker, it seems that he has gained a lot of benefits, but in fact, he is burned."

"Go on."

Cheng Yu had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and continued: "The Han family is in decline, chaos has been born, although the ancestor is reborn, he has no power to return to the sky, let alone a small descendant?

Liu Zhan is the prime minister, and many people must jump out to oppose it. He is roasting himself on the fire, and sooner or later he will end up in disrepute.

The general just needs to wait and see what happens. ”

"Haha...... Okay, good, Zhong De woke up the person in his dream with a word. Cao Cao raised his hand and stroked his beard, and laughed, "This is called self-inflicted sin and cannot live." ”

"Huh...... The general still needs to stabilize the young emperor, and he will be of great use in the future. Cheng Yu smiled slightly and said.

"Well, I understand the stakes, and I'll go over tomorrow." Cao Cao nodded yes.
