In the state pastor's mansion, Yuan Shu sent Zhou Shang and Zhou Yu's uncle and nephew away, sat on the seat and drank again, and the expression on his face changed unpredictably. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Not long after, a few more people came in, all of whom were Yuan Shu's cronies, including his cousins Yuan Xu and Yuan Yin, Yuan Lian of the same clan, his maternal uncle Feng Fang, as well as Ji Ling, Li Feng and other cronies.

Yuan Shu saw everyone come in and put down the wine bottle, but his brows were furrowed, and his face showed a look of pain, as if he had touched some wound.

Yuan Shu's younger brother Yuan Xu saw this scene and hurriedly said: "The general is injured in the past, and it is really not advisable to drink too much wine." ”

"Zhang Liao!" Yuan Shu almost popped a name out of his teeth, the pain on his face turned gloomy, and his eyes flashed with hatred.

At the beginning of the battlefield in Luoyang, he was shot three arrows by Zhang Liao, although it was not fatal, but it left a trouble, every time the weather is cold and cloudy, the pain will be unbearable, he has been pampered since childhood, how has he suffered so much, which also makes him even more resentful of Zhang Liao.

"Fuyi!" Yuan Shu looked at Ji Ling, and his voice was full of murderous aura: "Those traitors who dared to go to Zhang Liao have all been hunted down?" ”

Yuan Shu said that the traitors were the Confucian scholars of the Han family who responded to Zhang Liao's imperial examination in his territory and rushed to Luoyang, and several princes had different degrees of Confucianism in their respective territories to go to Luoyang, among which Yuan Shu's methods were the most intense, and these Confucian students were called "traitors", so that Ji Ling led the troops to guard the main roads, and ordered the counties to be closely monitored, and all the rebels were either arrested or killed.

"My lord," Ji Ling clenched his fists and said loudly, "All the rebels who left the county, whether they rushed to Luoyang or not, have all been arrested, there are two hundred and twenty-three people, fifty-six rebels have been killed, and the rest have all been imprisoned." ”

Bang!

Yuan Shu slapped his palm on the desk: "You don't have to go to prison, kill them all!" ”

"Yes!" Ji Ling received the order loudly, turned around and was about to go out.

On the side, Yuan Lian hurriedly stopped loudly: "Ming Gong must not!" If you kill Confucianism, you will lose people's hearts! ”

Yuan Shu was born in the Yuan clan of Chen County, the son of the third duke, and has a high reputation, Yuan Shu didn't dare to scold him like Ji Ling, seeing him blocking, his eyes flashed with displeasure, and he snorted: "Such traitors, take refuge in Zhang Liao, tend to adhere to the evil government, and it is not enough to settle people's hearts if they don't kill!" ”

Yuan Lian said in a deep voice: "If you are in Zhang Liao, not in Confucianism, Ming Gong should use the policy of tenderness to collect people's hearts for your own use, and please think twice." ”

"Well, the rebels will stay for now." Yuan Shu waved his hand, and his eyes flashed fiercely: "But Zhang Liao stole the court, carried out Wang Mang's government in vain, abandoned the famous family, promoted the dirty people, and damaged the foundation of the world. ”

Yuan Xu opened his mouth and said: "General, now Zhang Liao is coercing the Son of Heaven to base himself on Luoyang, and there is even the land of Qin and Jin, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, which cannot be underestimated!" ”

Yuan Shu snorted: "Although Zhang Liao has a land of thousands of miles, it is a border land, the people are only three million, I am based on the rich land of the Central Plains, the people are tens of millions, and the soldiers and horses are strong, why be afraid of him!" ”

Yuan Yin said: "Ming Gong, since Xingping, disasters have been repeated, although there are many people in the Central Plains but lack of food, they should rest and recuperate, and it is not too late to cut down Zhang Liao after the disaster year." ”

Yuan Shu said angrily: "The disaster in Guanzhong is better than the Central Plains, we are affected by the disaster, how can Zhang Liao be spared!" Liu's stupidity is nothing, but this thief is in the court, the world is in chaos, and the fourth prince of my family can sit back and watch the faint monarch and ministers poison the world. ”

He not only reprimanded Zhang Liao with this, but also despised the emperor of the court, the people below had different expressions for a while, and they were silent, Yuan Shu was also looking at the looks of the people below, and the hall was silent for a while.

After a while, Yuan Xu spoke: "The general must attack Zhang Liao, and he can form princes from all directions." ”

Yuan Shu got up, his eyes swept over the people below, and suddenly said, "Can you know my Yuan ancestor?" ”

Yan Xiang, the main bookkeeper, was a little puzzled: "Ming Gong is talking about Yuan Angong?" ”

Yuan Shu shook his head, his eyes flashed with a different color, and said: "The Yuan family is from Chen, and Chen, after Shun, Ying Tude is also." ”

Ji Ling and the others were puzzled, but Yuan Jian and the others were trembling slightly, they seemed to realize something, and couldn't help but look at Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu's eyes were awe-inspiring, wandering in the hall, and after more than ten steps, he suddenly said: "Today's chaos is in chaos, the Liu family is weak, the sea is boiling, the Han family is dying, there is already a heavenly prophecy, the Han generation, when Tu Gao also!" It is in line with my name, the fourth generation of my family, the people are home, and they want to respond to the heavens and the people, and bear the fire with the earth, so that they can be lucky, what do you think? ”

When everyone in the hall heard Yuan Shu's words, although they had expected it, at this time, their bodies trembled, their breathing was heavy, and they couldn't help but lower their heads when they looked at Yuan Shu's sharp eyes, and their hearts were panicked and sweating profusely.

Yuan Shu wants to stand on his own, this is an earth-shattering event, if it happens, Yuan is the son of heaven, they are all ministers of the dragon, but if one is not defeated, their subordinates who follow Yuan Shu will all be ruined and have no place to be buried!

Yan Xiang, the chief bookkeeper, took a deep breath and immediately stood up and objected: "Ming Gong can't!" In the past, Zhou since Houji as for King Wen, accumulated virtue, three points of the world have two, still serve Yin, although the Ming Duke Yi Shi Kechang, if there is a Zhou Sheng, although the Han family is slight, not if Yin Xun's violence also. ”

Yan Xiang said this tactfully, and to put it bluntly, Yuan Shu's reputation is not enough to be called the emperor, and the Han Dynasty has not yet perished, so it is absolutely not possible to be called the emperor at this time.

Yuan Shu stared at Yan Xiang, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he didn't speak.

Yan Xiang shook on the ground, his body trembling.

……

In the first year of Jian'an, the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the weather was cold, but the entire Luoyang City was lively.

Because many of the people of Luoyang moved from Hedong, Guanzhong and Hezhou, they also brought the New Year customs promoted by Zhang Liao, pasting Spring Festival Lian, eating dumplings, staying up Chinese New Year's Eve, and lion dances, lanterns, temple fairs, etc. after the year have already begun to prepare.

The Hussar General's Mansion is located on the bank of the imperial city, and there are people coming and going in front of the door, but they are all blocked by Mi Zhu.

There was laughter in the house, Zhang Liao pasted Spring Festival couplets and made firecrackers with several children in front of the hall, and Tang Wan, Cai Yan, Mi Zhen and other wives and concubines accompanied Zhang's mother to make dumplings in the back.

Watching the two sons running around under the care of Diao Chan and Xiaohe, and the youngest daughter staggering over and shouting for her father, Zhang Liao was very happy.

Since welcoming the Son of Heaven, he has not fought in the east and west for two years, and has been recuperating, not because he does not want to dominate the world, but because of the drought and locust plague for three consecutive years.

The situation in the Central Plains is not good, Guanzhong, Bingzhou, and Luoyang are the hardest hit areas, Zhang Liao's energy is all focused on recuperation, tuntian, disaster preparedness, disaster relief, at least to let his subordinate people not starve to death, but this goal is not easy, even if he continues to store grain for disaster relief, it is still barely strong, but it is still much better than Yuzhou, Yanzhou and other Central Plains.

Since the implementation of the imperial examination in September, Zhang Liao has been even more busy, going deep into the counties to inspect everywhere, making sure that the first imperial examination is carried out smoothly, he knows very well the difficulty of reform, if the first fire is not burned well, there will be all kinds of people jumping out, and the resistance will be greater.

When he was busy with the imperial examination, the Quartet was not calm, Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou were ready to move, Zhang Liao guarded Guanzhong with Zhang He and Huang Zhong, and he also went to inspect in October.

In mid-November, Xianbei Wuhuan in the north made chaos again, plus Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan divided and merged, and Zhang Liao went to Bingzhou and Zhongshan again, and negotiated countermeasures with Jubei and Guo Jia, plus Gao Shun and Zhao Yun, repelled the attack of Xianbei Wuhuan, but it was cold and snowy in the north, and it was impossible to pursue deep into the desert, so it could only be defended.

It wasn't until a few days ago that Zhang Liao rushed back to Luoyang from the north, held a court meeting, and dealt with some political affairs with Xun Yu and Fu Zhu, and then calmed down and returned home for the New Year.

It was getting late, the family ate dumplings, the female dependents and children chatted together, playing the little games taught by Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao also wanted to get involved, and he didn't want the shadow to bring a news, so he had to summon Xun Yu, Fu Zhu, Mi Zhu, and Li Ru overnight to discuss.
