In Luoyang City, the forces of the world's checks and balances made Guan Yan spend an extremely comfortable few months, Cai Yan's waist and abdomen were getting bigger, and his actions became more and more inconvenient. The first camp was handed over to Ju Yi; The tiger and leopard ride was unexpectedly handed over to Zhang Liao from Bingzhou; The matter of guarding the palace is decided by Ji Ling; , since Guan Yan is sick, he can't go to the court, but the wind and grass in the court can't hide from Guan Yan's ears and eyes.

Everything is arranged, Guan Yan accompanies Cai Yan and Diao Chan around the courtyard every day, and at the age of less than thirty, he has a taste of his early seventies, leisurely! Cai Yan can't have sex, Guan Yan has more days to stay at Diao Chan's place at night, when Cai Yan was pregnant in April, Diao Chan was also pregnant, this is really a double happiness.

In the backyard, Guan Yan held Cai Yan with one hand and Diao Chan's hand with the other, strolling leisurely to enjoy the scenery in the courtyard.

There was a rush of footsteps, and Xiao Qi, the captain of the pro-guard team, trotted over.

"Lord, and the state is urgent!" Xiao Qi knelt down on one knee in front of Guan Yan, holding up the urgent letter with both hands; Since the two housemothers were there, Xiao Qi kept his head down, not daring to raise his eyes to face it.

Guan Yan took the letter and said, "It's hard work, let's go down first!" ”

Guan Yan led Cai Yan and Diao Chan to a pavilion and sat down, and looked at each other.

After a while, Guan Yan muttered, "Ding Yuan is dead......

And the state of Mu Ding Yuan, because of Guan Yan's life-saving grace, secretly helped Guan Yan a lot, which is a big help for Guan Yan. Originally, Ding Yuan, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan were in the northern balance of power, each with a state, but now that Ding Yuan is sick and dead, the situation will change; Moreover, Bingzhou and Luoyang are only separated by a river, so there must be no loss here!

"Yan'er, Chan'er, I have important matters to discuss, the autumn outside is too heavy, you two should go back to the room to rest later!"

"Don't worry, husband!" Cai Yan replied, then got up and saluted with Diao Chan, and watched Guan Yan leave in a hurry.

"Little Seven!" Guan Yan waved his hand and shouted: "Hurry up and invite Xi Zhicai and Fu Zhi to see each other in the study." ”

"Whoa!" Xiao Qi had to order him to rush out.

A quarter of an hour later, Dian Wei was still guarding the study like an iron tower; In the study, Guan Yan, Xi Zhicai, and Fu Zhu sat in front of the cowhide map and discussed softly.

"The land of the annex must not be lost!" Guan Yan patted the merger on the map heavily: "I want to order Zhang Yan and Chen Deng to take the merger of the state quickly; Zhang Liao was originally an official of the state, so he could go to dredge Ding Yuan's original subordinates first. ”

Fu Zhi glanced at Xi Zhicai, and then looked at Guan Yan's slightly excited face: "Lord, I think that General Zhang Yan's Black Mountain Army has not yet come out of the mountain." ”

"Why?" Guan Yan frowned and asked.

"The Montenegrin Army is a strange soldier, even if it loses Jizhou, the lord has not yet used it, and now the territory of the state is not yet known, you can plan to take it!"

Xi Zhicai nodded: "What's more, the people in the court are staring at the lord all the time, and at this time, the Montenegrin Army confesses to the world, and I am afraid that it will give people a handle!" ”

Guan Yan stood up and thought about it carefully, although he is not afraid of the party members now, he is not completely sure of uprooting, and he needs to be careful at this time, otherwise why should Jizhou give it to the party members?

"What the two gentlemen say is true!" Guan Yan turned around and sat down slowly, looking at the two: "Is there a good plan?" ”

Guan Yan's humble and accepting appearance made Xi Zhicai and Fu Zhu quite satisfied, and Xi Zhicai lightly twisted his beard and said: "Ding Yuan has an only son, named Ding Yue, although he has no great talent, but he is also loyal, and the lord can make up the Son of Heaven: read Ding Jianyang's merits, let his son inherit his position, and His Majesty will follow it." If the lord is not to take the state in person, I am afraid that the party members will not be able to stop it! ”

Guan Yan nodded, and was about to speak, but he pressed Guan Yan's arm in frustration: "In addition, the lord can order General Zhang Yan to lead more than 1,000 cavalry out of Taihang in the south and attack the counties of the state. ”

These two people are fine, Guan Yan blinked his eyes, and said secretly in his heart: In the future, I should talk less!

Ten days later, the hundred officials will meet.

Emperor Liu Wei of the Han Dynasty sat on the dragon chair, and Liu Xie, the 14-year-old king of Chen Liu, was also ordered by Liu Wei two months ago to enter the court to participate in politics.

"Huh? Where is the waiter? Liu Wei asked in a childish voice: "Your Majesty has arrived, why don't you sing the court?" ”

The middle attendant looked at Liu Wei only in a respectful manner: "King Chen Liu, General Ji Ling said that people are not yet together!" ”

Liu Wei's eyes widened, and he just wanted to scold, but he heard Ji Ling himself shouting loudly outside the door: "The hussar general has arrived~"

I saw a person slowly walking in from outside the hall, wearing a dark official uniform, the collar was embroidered with the pattern of red fire, the collar was up to the ear, separated from the middle, and the thin chain made of silver threads shuttled between the collars, revealing the layers of clothes inside, the same color brocade was tied to the outer robe, and the red ribbon was decorated with the same color of agate and jade ring, and they fell into each other when they walked, which was very pleasant.

Who else can there be in this person, naturally it is the first person in the dynasty: Guan Yan, Guan Wende!

Guan Yan lightly pressed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, held the wat board in his left hand, slowly walked up the golden steps, stood opposite Liu Xie, looked around the hall, all the ministers saluted, and Guan Yan smiled in return.

As for Liu Xie, who was standing opposite Guan Yan, Guan Yan just glanced at it, and did not deliberately give Liu Xie any reaction, which could be regarded as giving Liu Xie a hint of power. Liu Xie and his emperor's elder brother Liu Wei are completely two personalities, Liu Xie has a generous temperament and is simple, while Liu Xie is good at scheming and has a deep city.

Liu Xie came to Liu Wei two months ago and told him about his request to participate in politics, Liu Wei recognized his younger brother's ability, and having his closest relatives participate in the government, he also shared a pressure for himself, so he immediately agreed to Liu Xie's request.

But on the first day of Liu Xie's reign, he mentioned the Son of Heaven: Guan Yan said that he had been sick for a season, which was unheard of throughout the ages. If he is falsely ill, he shall be punished for the crime of deceiving the king.

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and Yuan Kui and Wang Yun and the party, of course, applauded and echoed; Ma Riyan and other neutral ministers and ministers of the Guan Yan faction tried their best to oppose it.

Liu Wei was already biased towards Guan Yan in his heart, and the voice of the DPRK and China was obviously favorable to Guan Yan, so he immediately rejected Liu Xie's request.

Of course, this matter could not escape Guan Yan's ears, so he immediately sent someone to investigate, it turned out that on the first night of the court meeting, Liu Xie had visited Yuan Kui's mansion at night.

Then it's very clear, since you Liu Xie and Yuan Kui ran together, then don't blame me Guan Yan for being polite, this is why Guan Yan has today's attitude of ignoring Liu Xie.

Liu Xie looked at the person opposite, with mixed feelings in his heart, and there were thousands of words in his chest, but none of them came out. After the last incident, Liu Xie felt reckless, and now that Guan Yan was in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart. Liu Xiechang exhaled and saluted Guan Yan as if he had made up his mind: "Hussar general!" ”

Guan Yan smiled slightly, and also returned the salute: "King Chen Liu!" ”

Now that the people have arrived, the waiter shouted: "The emperor has arrived, and hundreds of officials will worship!" ”
