Chapter Ninety-Three: Plotting Against Rebellion
Su Xue came to the Zifang Cave and saw Taixuan Tongzi sitting cross-legged, constantly picking up something on the ground, she felt strange, did not make a sound, but walked over quietly.
Su Xue took a closer look, it turned out that the senior brother was holding yarrow in his hand, at this time she looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but say: "Fire on the water, fire and water are both good!" β
"Hmm~" Taixuan Boy was startled, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Fairy Qingshui, and he hurriedly said at this time: "Senior sister, I was too attentive just now to notice you, when did you come?" β
"Not long ago, senior brother, who are you telling a fortune against?" Su Xue asked in surprise.
"Give your junior brother in the world-Liu Bei, count a hexagram!" Taixuan Boy got up, patted his clothes, picked up a plate of fruit from the cabinet on the side and said, "This is the fruit that has just been picked, you can taste it!" β
"What kind of fruit is this?" Su Xue looked into the fruit bowl, he grabbed one, put it in his mouth and said, "This apricot is so fresh, it's delicious!" β
"Have you eaten it before?" Taixuan Tongzi casually put it on the desk and said, "If you like it, eat more, and there will be more outside after eating!" β
"I used to have apricot trees in my yard, and I would pick some when I had nothing to do!" Su Xuewan's eyes showed sadness: "It's a pity that I can't go back, although those trees may still be there, but they are still things and people after all!" β
"Why don't you!" Taixuan Boy sighed heavily and said, "Think about how strong the Han was in the past, but now it is falling apart!" β
"Then how have you spent all these years, I mean sad days!"
"How else can I spend it, mortal affairs, it's not good for me to interfere directly, sometimes I just let it go, let it be!" After the Taixuan boy finished, he walked to the place just now, bent down and picked up the yarrow on the ground.
"By the way, what is Liu Bei's fortune?" Fairy Shimizu puts an apricot in her mouth.
"Yes, it's good, but you still need the help of external forces, water and fire, water on top, fire on the bottom, and you also need to exert the power of water to achieve the auspicious result of both water and fire!" Taixuan Boy sorted out the yarrow and put it in the box on the side.
"I understand, brother, but what should I do now?"
"You did a good job before, Dong Zhuo's death, although you didn't have anything to plan, but your role is still no, without your appearance, the Diao Chan maid will not instigate Lu Bu to turn against Dong Zhuo; As for Gongsun Chan, you took advantage of the contradictions between people to convince Gongsun Bin and form an anti-Gongsun Chan alliance, and now Gongsun Chan is also surviving! Taixuan Boy said as he walked: "Borrow a knife to kill!" β
"Then what should Liu Bei do here?" Su Xue asked in surprise.
"Now Cao Cao is attacking Xuzhou with all his might, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian is invincible, defeated again and again, Cao Cao's army is at its peak, even if Liu Bei and they go, it is estimated that they will not be able to defeat the sinister and spicy Cao Cao!"
"Then how can we help Liu Bei?" Su Xue hurriedly asked, and from her eyes, it could be seen that she was very eager for Taixuan Boy to give her an answer.
"I can't do anything for you, I can only give you a heads-up!" The Taixuan boy stretched out his fingers and wrote the word "Yanzhou" on Su Xue's palm.
"Yanzhou!?" Su Xue looked at the two words in front of her suspiciously, and said, "Senior brother, what do you mean?" β
Taixuan Boy turned around and walked out of the cave, stood on the cliff, looked into the distance, took a deep breath of fresh air, and said to Su Xue behind him: "The opportunity must not be leaked, you still need to understand it yourself, you go!" β
Su Xue saw that Taixuan was silent, so she had no choice but to say, "Thank you, senior brother, Su Xue understands!" β
On the way down the mountain, Su Xue looked at the two words in her hand from time to time, and kept chanting silently in her heart: "Yanzhou, Yanzhou?" β
But she never had a thought, and she didn't know what it meant for Taixuan Boy to get "Yanzhou"? What else is "borrowing a knife to kill people", is it because he wants to make a fuss in Yanzhou and kill Cao Cao by not sparing his hands? But whose hand should I borrow? Now in Yuan Shu's allies, Gongsun Zhan, Tao Qian, Sun Jian, none of them are useful, even the leader of Yuan Shu is useless, either Yuan Shao beat down, or was scared by Cao Cao, after the battle of Kuangting, it is estimated that mentioning Cao Cao's name in front of Yuan Shu in the future is enough to scare Yuan Shu.
Now looking back and thinking about it, the eunuchs were chaotic in the past, causing the people to be unpeaceful, and later the eunuchs were removed by Yuan Shao in the palace coup, but then there was another Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo's chaotic government can only be more than the eunuchs, the eunuchs withdrew from the stage of history and became history, Dong Zhuo stepped onto the stage of the times through intrigue and trickery. But for Dong Zhuolai, the good times didn't last long, and he was killed by Lu Bu and Wang Yunlian, Dong Zhuo's era withdrew, and Yuan's era came.
Thinking of this, Su Xue's hand couldn't help but scratch the placket of her clothes. Now Gongsun Zhan's fire core has been killed by Yuan Shao to the point that he has almost no backhand power, he can only stick to the city, Gongsun Chan is destroyed, Yuan Shao's power will also be like the sun, what will be used to balance Yuan Shao in the future, Yuan Shu and Cao Cao fought a battle, which established Cao Cao's position in the Central Plains, and Cao Cao is also a key object of suspicion. I must help Liu Bei thrive before they become a climate, so that Liu Bei can crisscross between these powerful forces, instead of running around all day long.
Now his task is to help Liu Bei and them repel Cao Cao, if the fire core will go to the stage of history, then, will Lu Bu also have this catastrophe?
Su Xue stopped at this time, casually picked the leaves on the tree next to her, looking at this leaf, Su Xue said thoughtfully: "How did I forget Lu Bu's big man!" β
......
"We're fast enough!" Tian Kai said to Liu Bei beside him: "I'm a little dizzy when I run!" β
"It's estimated that it will be more than half there, and it is already very rare for our army of 10,000 to be able to be so fast!" Liu Bei looked back at the dragon-like team behind him, and couldn't help but sigh: "Ten thousand soldiers and horses, the momentum is different!" β
"Hehe, it's still useful, think about it, in this troubled world, everyone is thinking about you eating me and I eating you, you have the strength, others don't dare to move you easily, just rely on this army of ten thousand rao, others want to move me, everyone has to weigh themselves first!" Tian Kai pointed to the 10,000-strong army behind him and said proudly.
"Yes, now everyone is thinking about war, and no one is thinking about the safety of the emperor in Chang'an City!" Liu Bei turned his head and asked, "Lord Tian, I don't know what kind of weather is going to be in Chang'an City after Dong Zhuo's death!" β
"Humph! Meteorology? What else is there to eat? Tian Kai quenched a mouthful of phlegm to the ground and said, "It's almost the same to describe hell!" β
"So serious?"
"Two months after Dong Zhuo's death, his old subordinates Li Dao and Guo Yan wanted to disband the troops and return to the fields, but on the way they met Jia Xu to offer a plan, Li Dao Guo Yan was so little bit by him, so he summoned the old department and attacked the capital, Lu Bu defended the city for eight days, because of the rebellion of the soldiers in the city, Lu Bu was defeated, he led more than 100 cavalry, with his family, and also with Dong Zhuo's head to kill Wuguan, Wang Yun was also killed, and now Chang'an City is controlled by Li Dao Guo Yan, and the emperor is no exception."
"The emperor didn't get that from them, did he?" Liu Bei asked eagerly.
"Hmm~" Tian Kai shook his head and said: "How can they have such courage to dare to kill the emperor, at most they will put the emperor under house arrest, and they will control the government!" β
"The emperor is also a hard life, in this life, he first suffered a palace coup, and then he was hollowed out of power by Dong Zhuo and became a puppet emperor, and now he is being played by Li Dao Guo Yan, he is still a puppet emperor, his life is bitter, the power is falling, and the Han family is already very fragile!" Liu Bei raised his head and sighed.
"What are you moaning about without illness, it's good to bet on a person like this, I am upset to see it!" Tian Kai glanced at Liu Bei.
Liu Bei ignored it and continued to ask, "Then where did Lu Bu go after he escaped from Chang'an?" β
Lu Bu escaped from Chang'an, took Dong Zhuo's head, and first took refuge in Yuan Shu, he thought that he had helped them avenge the Yuan family, and if he was kind to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu would accept him, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to be very arrogant and robbing because he was dissatisfied with Lu Bu's meritorious service, so he rejected Lu Bu. Later, Lu Bu switched to Yuan Shao. At Yuan Shao's place, he joined forces with Yuan Shao to fight Zhang Yan in Changshan to obtain the Montenegrin army. β
"I see, before Yuan Shao and General Gongsun stopped the army and made peace, Yuan Shao and Lu Bu joined forces to fight the Black Mountain Army!" Liu Bei said.
In this way, Lu Bu rode his good horse named Chitu, which could leap over the city wall and fly across the trenches, and rode with his fierce generals Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and dozens of others to attack Zhang Yan's military formation, sometimes going three or four times, and each time he cut off the head of the Black Mountain Army and came back. After fighting continuously for more than ten years, he finally defeated Zhang Yan's army. β
"Lu Bu is indeed brave in battle!" Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh.
He relied on his military exploits and asked Yuan Shao many times to increase the army, but Yuan Shao did not agree, and the soldiers under Lu Bu also robbed and plundered from time to time, and Yuan Shao began to hate him from then on. Lu Bu felt uneasy, so he asked to return to Luoyang. Yuan Shao agreed to his request, appointed LΓΌ Bu as a lieutenant in the name of his son, and sent a soldier to send LΓΌ Bu to secretly get rid of him. Lu Bu suspected that Yuan Shao had his own idea, so he sent someone to play the kite in the camp tent and escaped quietly. In the middle of the night, those armor soldiers went out and slashed LΓΌ Bu's bed with knives, thinking that he was dead, but the second Yuan Shao received the news that LΓΌ Bu was still alive, so he ordered the city gate to be closed, and LΓΌ Bu was able to flee to Hanoi and unite with Zhang Yang. Yuan Shao was worried that Lu Bu would be unfavorable to him, so he sent troops to chase and kill Lu Bu again, and those soldiers were afraid of him, and no one dared to approach when they caught up. On the way, he passed by Chen Liu, and Taishou Zhang Miao sent someone to greet Lu Bu and treat him heavily, and when they parted, the two held each other's arms and swore to tie the knot. β
"Who is Zhang Miao, why is he so friendly to Lu Bu?"
"When the allies were fighting Dong, Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao had some festivals, and Yuan Shao also secretly asked Cao Cao to kill him, so he tried to unite the people Yuan Shao hated!"
"I see, that Zhang Miao is now in Yanzhou, Cao Cao is now an ally of Yuan Shao, and he is also very uneasy under Cao Cao!"
"This is not good, Cao Cao's relationship with him before was very good, and he even entrusted his wife before the war!"
"This is really not good, the next hustle and bustle are all for profit, and the hustle and bustle are all for profit, with Cao Cao's current strength, it is difficult to match Yuan Shao, and besides, now Yuan Shao is far more useful to Cao Cao than Zhang Miao, and Cao Cao will not tear his face for Zhang Miao and Yuan Shao." Liu Bei then said: "Then again, Cao Cao used to seem to be Zhang Miao's subordinate, but now he has become Zhang Miao's top boss, Zhang Miao's presence in Yanzhou is estimated to be uncomfortable for Cao Cao at all times!" β
"You are, Zhang Miao's relationship with Cao Cao is very delicate now?" Tian Kai touched his beard meaningfully and said.
"Chances are, the relationship is very delicate indeed!" Liu Bei saw Tian Kai touching his beard, and he felt a kind of jealousy in his heart, after all, he didn't have a beard yet, Liu Bei coughed a few times, and said: "Hearing that Cao Cao entered Yanzhou, he killed Yanzhou celebrities, which shows that he has not handled the relationship with the local forces in Yanzhou very well!" β
"Oh, it's true, I haven't noticed this yet, and it's no wonder that you've been through a lot, so you're naturally more sensitive!" Tian Kai said casually.
Liu Bei was speechless by Tian Kai, so he lowered his head and stopped talking.
At this time, he thought to himself, Cao Cao entered Yanzhou, do not take the local forces seriously, it is inevitable that he will suffer, now Cao Cao is like a bamboo to Xuzhou, seeing that if he continues to fight like this, Xuzhou will be owned by Cao Cao, the territory is large, Cao Cao's power will be stronger, and there will be more and more talents, like Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, Xu Yan, Wang Kai, these Yanzhou faction people will be more uneasy, and Cao Cao has always reused Yuzhou faction people like Xun Yu, now the territory is like this, he looks down on Yanzhou people, and when the territory is bigger, That's getting more and more marginalized, and it's chilling to think about, and the Yanzhou forces probably can't sit still.
