Chapter 1: Driving the Horse to the North
The Han Dynasty, Guanghe four years, Xianbei leader Tan Shihuai died, his son and Lian Daili, and Lian was not as talented as his father, sex and greed for money, handling affairs unfairly, and the various departments gradually rebelled. He often led his troops to plunder the Han border, and later when he attacked Beidi County, he was killed by the Han army with arrows, and his nephew Kuitou was established as the leader.
In order to establish the prestige of the tribe, the leader led the border counties of Youzhou of the Han Dynasty to plunder the summer grain. Youzhou is in a hurry!
However, in the eastern capital of Luoyang, the emperor Liu Hong, the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty, did not deal with the government in the palace, but built many commercial shops in the harem for the palace ladies to sell. As a result, thefts and fights between each other in the harem have occurred repeatedly. Liu Hong put on the clothes of a merchant and drank and had fun with the court ladies of the merchants. He played with the dog in the West Garden again, and the dog wore a civil official's hat on his head and a ribbon on his body. He also held the reins in his hand and personally drove a cart pulled by four donkeys to gallop back and forth in the park. As a result, the rich second generation of Luoyang competed to follow suit, resulting in the price of donkeys being equal to the price of horses.
He also likes to save private money, collect the world's treasures, and contribute to each county, and first lose to the Central Bureau, called "guide fee".
Lu Qiang, the regular servant, advised: "The wealth of the world, the yin and yang that is not born, return to Your Majesty, how can there be public or private!" Your Majesty, you are now collecting the treasures of the counties, the inner palace is full of silk fabrics produced in the world, the west garden is full of money and goods that should be managed by the great sinon, and the stables are kept with horses that should be managed by the imperial servants. And the lost government has the wealth of the guide, and the people are poor, and the expenses are more and the less, and the traitors are affected by them because of their benefits. And the ministers of Ah Mei are willing to sacrifice their selfishness, tolerate flattery, and go on from here. Old Script: The selection of officials should be the responsibility of the Sanfu, and Shangshu was only responsible for forwarding the Sanfu's recitals to His Majesty. The selected candidates are appointed, and they are held accountable for their performance. Those who have no political achievements will be handed over to Shangshu for impeachment, and will be transferred to the court lieutenant to verify the truth and be punished. Despite this strictness, there are still some officials who are incompetent, resulting in malfeasance in government affairs. If so, the three princes will be exempted from the burden of the election, and the Shangshu will not sit again, and there will be no return to the reward, how can he work hard in vain! ”
At the time of the application, the sun was already in the west, and the clouds in the sky were dyed with golden, red, orange and yellow by the glow. The flickering and changing clouds are like birds and beasts, like lotus futons, and in the golden mysterious aura, like the Buddha world in the West. Liu He, a student in a hunting suit, rode a fast horse and wandered in the northern mountains, thinking of Lu Qiang, a frequent servant among the eunuchs of the early dynasty today.
A little tired, Liu Hezhuma quietly watched the sunset slowly set on the west of this Beipi Mountain, and seemed to sigh with emotion in his mouth: "Drive the horse to the Beipi Plain, hesitate and hesitate." ”
Why did Liu He, a student of Tai, "hesitate", --- look like he was wandering and hesitating in his heart, and he couldn't leave.
This starts with the word "crossing".
It has been twelve years since I traveled to this era - I found myself in the late Han Dynasty, and this year was already a weak crown, and the crown ceremony was only completed a few days ago.
The most important thing is because "Liu He" has a father named Liu Yu and a "name" called "Han Family Clan". Even if he is not proficient in history, at least he has always read the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in later generations - Liu Bei said that he was a member of the Han family.
If these two things are just coincidences, then, after hearing the names of Chen Fan, Dou Wu, Zhang Rang, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao, it is undoubtedly the end of the Han Dynasty.
The first person I heard about it was Chen Fan.
His father, Liu Yu, was a famous scholar in the East China Sea and a relative of the Han family, after Liu Qiang, the son of Emperor Liu Xiu of the Han Guangwu Emperor and Liu Qiang, the king of the East China Sea. At that time, at a party with him, several celebrities were tasting tea and appraising and discussing the world's celebrities. Someone said with admiration: "The world's model Li Yuanli (Li Ying), not afraid of the strong Chen Zhongju (Chen Fan), the world's handsome Wang Shumao (Wang Chang) These three gentlemen are really an example for my great Hanshi people to learn." ”
I heard about Zhang Rang again last year.
Since the death of the great eunuchs Wang Fu and Cao Jie one after another, Emperor Liu Hong in order to balance the power of the court, consolidate the power of the monarch, and fight against his relatives and scholars, thus supporting a new eunuch group - the ten permanent servants led by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong. Everyone in the world knows that the emperor said: "Zhang Changshou is my father, and Zhao Changshou is my mother." ”
This year again, I heard about Cao Cao and Yuan Shao.
In June last year, the imperial court issued an edict to seek talents, and the recommended ones were not only Yuan Shao of the third prince family of Runan IV, but also Cao Cao of Peiguo County, who was the late Dunqiu Lingpei.
In addition to the names of these people, he has heard many other names one after another, without exception, all of them are celebrities in the late Han Dynasty.
I only know that the year before last changed the yuan to "Guanghe", and this year is "the fourth year of Guanghe", and according to the experience of reading novels and playing the Three Kingdoms game in later generations, it can be concluded that Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, and Guo Jia are not very old. It is estimated that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's age will not be too old, and they will be twenty-five or sixteen, so it can be inferred that although they are in the late Han Dynasty, it will be about ten or twenty years before the troubled times are felt.
But there is a stone that has been pressing on Liu He's heart--- and at the end of the light and the yellow scarf.
Before the crossing, Liu He, whether it was from TV or books, knew the tragic situation of the place where the rebels passed, and finally crossed and was reborn once, but he didn't experience it in the Three Kingdoms era, and he lost his life in the Yellow Turban Uprising first. According to all kinds of clues, especially in recent years, he clearly found that it seems that he is not too far away from the Yellow Turban Uprising.
In recent years, the surrounding counties of the Han Dynasty have either been in rebellion or barbarian rebellion, and by the way, the Central Plains will have a series of earthquakes and large-scale epidemics of infection have repeatedly broken out, the most serious of which is the "man-made disaster" - the powerful landlords took the opportunity to collude with corrupt officials and corrupt officials to annex land and raise taxes.
Among them is "Liu He", in a flu-like epidemic, the eight-year-old "Liu He" was infected with wind cold, unconscious, and when he woke up, he was also a recent college graduate in the 21st century - Liu He.
In the face of natural and man-made disasters, everyone panicked, which led to more and more people at the grassroots level in the countryside believing in Zhangjiao Taiping Dao.
Liu He had successes and failures before crossing, he was not a weak person, since he couldn't change it, he could only find a way to adapt, and he couldn't sit still.
How to deal with the coming Yellow Turban Uprising?
After thinking about it for more than ten years, there are no more than three ways, one to take refuge in Taiping Road, one to avoid other places, and the other to gather people to protect themselves.
Defection is obviously not possible. The Yellow Turban Rebellion was strong, but it was quickly suppressed. If you don't take refuge, you don't necessarily die; Take refuge and you will die. It is not possible to avoid other places. When the yellow scarf happened, Zhang Jiao ascended and shouted, and the eight states responded, with hundreds of thousands of believers, connecting the county and the country, covering the sky and the sun, and the sea was terrified. Although the world is big, where can you find the source of peach blossoms?
Neither can be done, only to gather crowds to protect themselves.
It's just that it's easier said than done. He has neither prestige nor money, he is weak in his age, and the world does not know how to gather a crowd? Could it be that Liu Bei - I am a relative of the Han family?
According to the current situation, it seems that it can only be like this - his own Han clan relatives are stronger than Liu Bei's Han clan relatives!
King Jing of Zhongshan was from the Western Han Dynasty, and Liu Sheng had more than 120 sons, all of whom had passed two hundred years, and had already produced five suits; And after Liu Yu is the king of the East China Sea, this king of the East China Sea is Liu Qiang, the eldest son of Liu Xiu, the Guangwu Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty - in terms of generation, the current emperor really wants to call Liu Yu "Uncle Huang".
This may be their biggest advantage, this background is much better than Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, the Eastern Han Dynasty scholars are renamed, and because of the election system of the inspection system, the regional concept is strengthened, and more emphasis is placed on the background.
Therefore, the way to quickly get prestige and money is to make good use of this advantage, Liu Bei, the "water-injected pork", can succeed, and with his thousand-year-old vision and the name of the true clan, he dare not say that he competes with Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Yuan Shao and others to dominate the world, at least the ability to live in troubled times is still there.
Liu He smiled when he thought of this: "There are still a few days to graduate from Taixue, and I am about to embark on a career in office." As long as you can become an official and work hard for a year or two, won't you have prestige and money? ”
But the question arises again, what kind of official should I be?
"Being an official" is not a problem, with the help of the background of the Han family, his father Liu Yu is a scholar and a scholar, how can he get an official and a half position, but there are not many choices in front of him, although he has a good background, according to the rules of the Han family - Liu He and other students with a clan background will basically enter the inner court as an imperial adviser such as Yilang and Shizhong, if it is a peaceful season, the monarch is virtuous and wise; But since Emperor Xiaozhang enabled his relatives, Emperor Xiaohe appointed eunuchs to seize power, the state power was tilted between relatives, eunuchs, and scholars, and by the time of Emperor Xiaohuan, the Han Dynasty was "terminal cancer" and was a sailboat that was about to sink.
"Fang is under today's order, the power is in charge, the way of speech is blocked, and the learned people can't retreat. Instead of being a scribe who is busy with paperwork all day long, how can he be a magistrate who can do some practical things for the people of Qianshou? Liu He rode slowly.
Therefore, it is necessary to find a way to serve as a foreign magistrate - it is better to be the head of the chicken than the tail of the ox.
If you can't get in touch with people all day long in the Ouchi Imperial Palace, and you are busy with cases, what prestige and money can you get? It's better to simply go to Donghai's hometown to be a village chief and an emperor.
The so-called county guards and county commanders gather all powers on behalf of the herdsmen of the heavens, and the first person must know the laws of the Han family and the "five soldiers" - spears, halberds, axes, bows and arrows, but the children of Liu and the clan are not only studying the scriptures and not understanding the world. He studied since he was a child, learned the laws of the Han family, and because he knew that the troubled times were coming, he humbly sought to teach martial arts, could ride and shoot, knew fencing, and studied "Sun Tzu", "Wei Yu", "Sima Law" and other military books, and was more than enough to be the commander of the county.
At this moment, Liu He and a person in front of him galloped towards him, and Liu He hurriedly reined in his horse to avoid it.
The man immediately said, "It's dangerous! ”
Then the two sides dismounted, and the man said, "The horses are frightened, and there are many collisions." Can you hurt your brother? ”
Liu He first looked at this person, who was a head shorter than himself - one meter six or five, with a green scarf on his head, wearing leather armor, a hunting bow on his back, a long sword on his waist, a white face, ingots and ears, thick eyebrows and big eyes, but unfortunately the bridge of his nose was broken, and with thick lips, he was really not handsome; But his eyes are not leaking, but there is a slight heroic atmosphere.
"No problem! Brother Tai has a heart. Liu He replied.
The man looked up at Liu He, who was a head taller than him: about 1.75 meters, dressed in plain civilian clothes, with an iron sword hanging from his waist, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, red lips and white teeth, and a bookish atmosphere, but when he heard his voice, he exuded a bit of heroic atmosphere.
"Cao Cao in Xiaqiao County! Dare to ask Brother Taigao's surname? The man saluted.
"Yikes! Cao Mengde? Liu He blurted out.
"Do you know my name?"
Embarrassed, the first time I saw Cao Cao, Liu He was a little out of shape.
"Cao Jun's name, how can you not know? In his twentieth year, he was filial piety, except for the northern lieutenant of Luoyang, and the Beijing division collected traces; Fu was appointed as the commander of Dunqiu County, asking for the people's life and benefiting one party. Cao Yilang, I was wrong. ”
"It's just a little superficial, and Jun Misty praises it." Cao Cao smiled innocently.
Liu He straightened his body: "Liu He in the Lower East China Sea, the word is smooth, and he is a student of Taixue." ”
"Liu Jun! I take the liberty of asking, can you know Liu Bo'an, a doctor of the Five Classics? ”
"It's my father."
"Brother Shun, if you don't give up, can you go to the hunting camp with me to get together to solve the misunderstanding?" Cao Cao invited.
"Brother Meng De is a little older than me, how can I talk about it as an equal. It was the invitation of the elderly, and he did not dare to resign - it is better to be respectful than to obey his fate. ”
"Shun Zhizhi is heavy. Please drop it! ”
"Brother Cao, please!"
The two got on their horses and galloped to the hunting camp.
