What happened in Luoyang City has not yet reached the plain.

In Pingyuan County, since Liu Bei publicly announced that he would let Liu Feng, the son born to Cai Wenji, be the prince of Penghou.

All of a sudden, Liu Bei's "sexual" life came.

First of all, Cai Wenji gave her two dowry maids to Liu Bei as concubines. Then from Cai Yong, he asked for two maids who were originally serving Cai Yong, and they also made concubines for Liu Bei. Most of the women of ancient times were like this, as long as she was satisfied in the matter of the inheritance of her son. If a man finds a few more little wives or something, it won't be a problem.

These four little beauties were also given four more elegant names by Cai Wenji, namely Spring Flower, Summer Wind, Autumn Moon, and Winter Snow.

Not only that, Cai Wenji also made two lines of poetry and sent them over.

"Enjoy the flowers in spring, look at the moon in autumn; The cool breeze in summer and the snow in winter. ”

Probably what Cai Wenji means is that in spring, summer, autumn and winter, all year round, I have arranged beauties for you, one for each quarter. You Liu Bei, don't go outside to find other women.

It just so happened that Zuo Ci was good at room surgery, which made Liu Bei quite a little, "The spring night is bitter and short, and the day is high, and Xuande will not be early from now on." "Feelings.

Fortunately, Liu Bei knows history and understands that troubled times are coming, if he can't fight the world as soon as possible, these big and small wives will have to be robbed by others sooner or later.

Therefore, Liu Bei focused his attention at this time on the crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban.

Before the crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, there is a problem that must be solved first.

The combat effectiveness of the Yellow Turban Army is not to be worried, this is a group of scum.

Cao Cao in history only had a lot of people, and he didn't get a million Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. What's more, Liu Bei is now facing the scattered Yellow Turban Army.

However, the religious tendencies of the Yellow Turban Army made Liu Bei very worried.

Qingxu Yellow Turban, because of the Taiping Dao religion as a link, has maintained a semi-independent state until Cao*. This is not the result Liu Bei wants.

When it comes to religious issues, it is natural to consult experts, and Zuo Ci is an expert in this area.

Liu Bei has begun to agree with Zuo Cihui's spells.

Whether it is fishing in the basin or taking dragon liver in the mural, it can still be said to be magic. But a pot of wine, a piece of meat can't be eaten by hundreds of people, and there is really no other way to explain it except for magic.

Therefore, Liu Bei invited Zuo Ci and summoned the generals. asked: "Sir is familiar with the inside story of the Yellow Turban, please help us and others." ”

Zuo Ci said: "The lord can know that the yellow scarf is also true and false. ”

Liu Bei is very strange when he said this, isn't the Yellow Turban Army a peasant uprising, it is nothing more than a group of peasants who have no food, and at most they use religion to unite the hearts of the people.

The peasant uprising is divided into real uprisings and false uprisings.

Wait for Liu Bei to say what he thinks.

Zuo Ci said: "Lord, when the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, although the world was not quiet, the Quartet was in an uproar. However, there is a point where if you don't rebel, you will starve to death. In fact, the year before the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhang Jiao had already begun to prepare, and it was the world's great abundance that year, maybe some people in the world starved to death, but there were definitely not many. ”

It turns out that the Yellow Turban Uprising is not a peasant uprising dying of starvation, what is that. So, Liu Bei asked, "In that case, why did the Yellow Turban Army make trouble?" ”

If you have food to eat, don't you rebel, this question is very unlevel.

However, who made Liu Bei's lord, no matter how high the level is, he has to answer it. Zuo Ci had no choice but to reply: "Lord, don't you hear, 'The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious.'" ’。 Lord, do you know what it means? ”

Liu Bei said: "I know a little bit about it, and I ask Mr. to solve my doubts." ”

Zuo Ci said: "The so-called sky is Haotian, and if the sky is dead, the Han family should be destroyed." Huang Tian is the middle Huang Taiyi, Huang Tian should stand, it is the Yellow Turban when Xing, Taiping Road should stand along the sky, and the contemporary Han Dynasty has the world. ”

Isn't this Yellow Turban Rebellion a peasant uprising?

But think about it, the Yellow Turban Army's propaganda of the divine right of the monarch is the idea of the Yin and Yang family of the rotation of the five virtues, the Han Dynasty is the fire virtue, and the Yellow Turban is the earth virtue. The slogans of peasant uprisings are generally the pursuit of land and the like. If it was really a peasant uprising that could not eat, it should also be some famine area, how could the whole world be reversed.

Moreover, Zhang Jiao's slogan before the incident was "The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand, the age is in Jiazi, and the world is auspicious." ”。 This kind of slogan is to show yourself that you will follow the destiny of heaven and win the world. It is full of religious overtones and does not raise issues such as land.

So, Liu Bei asked again: "What is a real yellow scarf, what is a fake yellow scarf." I don't know how to tell. ”

Zuo Ci said: "In the Taiping Dao, there are many believers in Huang Tian, and this is the real yellow scarf. The fake yellow scarves are the ordinary people who were coerced by the Taiping Road, and some bandits and bandits who defected to the Taiping Road. ”

Liu Bei said: "I see, there are disciples in the Yellow Turban Army who blindly obey because of ignorance, but there are more people who have been held hostage. In this case, the real and fake yellow scarves should be regarded as a distinction theory. ”

Everyone said yes, and Liu Bei asked Zuo Ci to find a way to create a religion that could compete with Taiping Dao for the lower classes.

After Zuo Ci left, Liu Bei asked Xi Zhicai again: "I asked Mr. Zeng to investigate the Qingzhou Yellow Turban a few days ago, and I don't know what the result is?" ”

Xi Zhicai said: "The Qingzhou Yellow Turban is headed by Zhang Rao, with hundreds of thousands, mainly in the Qi generation, if it weren't for Jiao He leading the troops in Linjiang, now the Qi State is afraid that it has returned to the Yellow Turban Army." ”

Liu Bei nodded, and as soon as Jiao He led his troops out of Qingzhou in history, the yellow scarves immediately rose.

"Guan Hai is also one of the commanders of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army, mainly active in Beihai Kingdom and Taishan County, with tens of thousands of people."

"There is also Guan Cheng, this person is from Changguang County, Donglai County, gathering more than 3,000 families and dominating one side."

Hearing that Guan Cheng was from Donglai, Liu Bei looked at Tai Shi Ci with his eyes, and Tai Shi Ci said: "A certain person also heard the name of Guan Cheng, and his people occupied an island in the sea, known as Guan Yan Island." As far as I know, most of this person is from a pirate, and I don't know if he is a Yellow Turban thief. ”

Liu Bei smiled when he heard this: "This Guan Cheng is probably a fake yellow scarf." ”

The crowd laughed.

After laughing, Xi Zhicai said: "There are Xu He and Sima Ju again." These two people are the commanders of the Yellow Turban Army in Jinan and Le'an. There were two or three hundred thousand people. ”

sighed, and said that there are really enough yellow scarves in Qingzhou, but fortunately, even the old and weak women and children are counted, otherwise don't crusade against the yellow scarves, wait to be defeated by the yellow scarves.

After listening to the Yellow Turbans, Liu Bei asked: "If our army wants to break the Yellow Turban, where should we march from?" ”

Xi Zhicai looked at Liu Bei with his eyes, shook his head slightly, and Liu Bei said: "Come here today, the generals will obey the order." ”

The generals got up to listen to the order, and Liu Bei said: "Order you to wait for the soldiers and horses, gather in Gaotang County in five days, crusade against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and return the people of Qingzhou to a peaceful and prosperous world." Jian Yong prepared grain and grass for our army, and there must be no mistake. ”

"No!" And they were commanded.

Only Xi Zhi stayed, Liu Bei said: "Mr. stays, there must be someone to teach me." ”
