Chapter 45: Sun Ce withdraws from the army

According to the record of "Hanshu - Emperor Wen", Changmen Palace is the private garden of the Western Han Dynasty Tao Changmen Palace of the eldest princess Liu Yan, the eldest princess Liu Yan has a face or male pet named Dong Yan, in order to make herself live a happy life with Dong Yan, the eldest princess Liu Yan asked Dong Yan to give this Changmen Palace to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and Changmen Garden was changed to Changmen Palace, as a separate garden for the Son of Heaven to worship, rest and play.

As for why Liu Wei's face changed greatly after listening to Changmen Palace, it has to start with Chen Ajiao, the daughter of Princess Guantao.

Chen Ajiao and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che are childhood sweethearts, Jinwu Zangjiao is talking about Chen Ajiao, but the Son of Heaven, rich all over the world, throughout the ages, can be loyal to a relationship of the emperor, there are really few, not to mention the legendary emperor of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, his ambition is not only manifested in politics and power, but also treats feelings quite domineering, legend, this Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is both men and women.

And Chen Ajiao has been pampered since she was a child, and when she married Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the two had a honeymoon period, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was obedient to Chen Ajiao at the beginning.

is the eldest lady of the daughter, and she looks like she is also captivating the country and the city, coupled with the grace of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty at the beginning, it has become pampered and arrogant, but no matter how good the skin is, it will be like that after a long time, as an emperor, and an ambitious emperor, after a long time, the freshness brought by the appearance is gone, plus the pampered and arrogant character, it is naturally annoying.

What's more, as an emperor, he is rich all over the world, and the most important thing is beauty, and it is logical to empathize with him later.

Chen Ajiao has been favored for a long time, and naturally she is not satisfied with Emperor Wu of Han's betrayal of this feeling, so she cried, made trouble and hanged herself, which gave Emperor Wu of Han a headache, if it was an ordinary man, then he would endure it, but who was Emperor Wu of Han? Looking at the history of China, there are all countable emperors, how can this kind of thing be annoying, so Chen Ajiao jumped up and down to do things, not only failed to make Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty change his mind, but instead made his position as the queen disappear, and even sent directly to Changmen Palace, out of sight.

Chen Ajiao was naturally unwilling to be abolished, but after this incident, she also knew that it was impossible for her to get back her position as queen, so she changed her literary route and asked Sima Xiangru to make a celebrity "Changmen Fu" to save this relationship.

It's just that men, especially men who are not short of women, once they change their minds and want to turn back, it will be very difficult, although Chen Ajiao is famous in history, but he has never been able to see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty again in his life, since Chen Ajiao, Changmen Palace has become synonymous with the cold palace.

"Your Majesty, please!" Seeing that Liu Wei didn't move, Cao Xing on the side stepped forward and stretched out his hand.

"Er...... Wait ...... wait" Liu Bian's pale face became extremely ugly, he knew very well that he was really going to be sent to Changmen Palace, so what dignity did he have as an emperor?

had the heart to refuse, but Wang Shuang on the side had already shown a fierce light, Liu Wei gritted his teeth and said, "I want to see the prime minister." ”

At this time, Liu Wei could only pin his hopes on Ye Zhao, after all, he was Ye Zhao's brother-in-law, and although Ye Zhao now has a monopoly on power and has some authoritarian meaning, but for him, the emperor, he is actually very measured, and he will not easily transgress, perhaps...... If Ye Zhao is allowed to deal with this matter, it will save a little face.

"My father is fighting for His Majesty, and he is far away in Luoyang at the moment, how can he go back?" Ye Zheng looked at Liu Wei and said indifferently: "And...... Some trivial things, there is no need to alarm my father, now, at a critical moment, at this time, my father will be recalled to the court, and the fighter plane will be delayed in vain, how can Your Majesty bear it? ”

After speaking, Ye Zheng bowed and said, "Please move Your Majesty to Changmen Palace!" ”

"Your Majesty, please move to Nagato Palace!" Behind Ye Zheng, a group of civil and military ministers and soldiers all knelt down and said in unison to Liu Wei.

"Wait for ......" Liu Wei was trembling with anger, rolled his eyes, and passed out directly.

"Shizi, this ......" Cao Xuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Liu Bian, and looked at Liu Bian inquiringly.

Ye Zheng said indifferently: "Your Majesty is overworked and in poor health, send Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Empress to Changmen Palace to recuperate, and wait for the Prime Minister to return to the dynasty to make a final conclusion." ”

When everyone heard this, they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed down and promised to send Liu Wei to Changmen Palace with the imperial chariot, and then Empress He and Empress Tang were not spared and were sent to Changmen Palace together, among them, naturally they inevitably scolded and begged angrily, but Ye Zheng is not Ye Zhao, there are some things, Ye Zhao does, but Ye Zheng can't do it.

Although the emperor was sent to the Changmen Palace to 'recuperate', but the government was not greatly affected by this, although many officials were angry and dismissed, but the operation of the imperial court The difference between these people is not big, and politics, economy and military have always been in the hands of the prime minister's mansion.

"Shizi, this matter is very important, do you want to inform the prime minister?" After sending Liu Wei to Changmen Palace, Guo Huai looked at Ye Zheng with some concern.

"This battle is related to the fortune of the country, so don't distract your father, just allocate the supply of grain and grass." Ye Zheng thought about it and shook his head, in fact, he wasn't quite sure if Ye Zhao sent him back or not, but now that the matter has been done, there is no way back, he can't turn back, even if Ye Zhao comes back, he can't go back, it's better to let this matter drag on for a while, and when Ye Zhao comes back, Liu Wei's WeChat will be almost lost.

"Whoa!" Guo Huai bowed and said no more.

……

What happened in Guan Yu Chang'an, Ye Zhao didn't care much, after the autumn harvest, the weather began to turn cold, Ye Zhao left Zhao Yun to guard Luoyang, Guan Ping to guard Hangu Pass, and at the same time transferred Hanzhong Taishou Zhang Ren to Runan as a general, in charge of Runan military, and Ye Zhao himself personally led an army of 30,000 troops from Guan Yu to Xinye, out of Yique Pass, sitting in Wancheng, making a look of preparing to attack Jingzhou.

Although Cao Cao was sure that Ye Zhao's approach would be a sound attack on the west, but seeing Ye Zhao's attitude, he was a little uncertain for a while, after all, in today's situation, even if Ye Zhao loses a battle, he still has the ability to turn the tables, and if Cao Cao loses for a while, this only remaining bit of territory may have to change hands, Sun Ce's disadvantages of capturing Qingxu are also highlighted at this moment, Cao Cao has lost the space of strategic depth and can no longer afford to lose.

And Sun Ce in the east, but in full swing to recruit troops, at the same time in Gaotang, Zhuxian area, relying on the advantage of the water army to carry out several attacks, Ding Li and Fang Yue also sent a boat out to fight, but unfortunately compared to the children of Jiangdong, Ye Zhao's soldiers and horses in the water war is not small, more losses and less wins, simply encountered Sun Ce's provocation, both of them chose to avoid the fight, guard the water village, although Sun Ce's water army is powerful, but in the face of this turtle defense, there is no way, the two sides in the lower reaches of the Yellow River stalemate for two months, After entering November, the river finally began to freeze, and although the ice was still very thin, it also greatly affected the movement of the Jiangdong water army.

And the cold in the winter in the north is different from that in the south, many Jiangdong sailors have frostbite, and even the weapons are not stable, Sun Ce can only choose to repair temporarily, and at this time, Zhou Yu gradually noticed that something was wrong, the Han army has been unable to hold out for the past two months, I am afraid that when this winter comes, the children of Jiangdong will not be able to adapt to fighting in this weather, but for Ye Zhao's army, the problem is not big, after all, they are used to it.

"Bo Fu, it seems that Ye Zhao must be waiting for this moment, when the river is frozen, I am afraid it will be the day when Ye Zhao sends out his troops, my Jiangdong soldiers are now unable to fight again, and the newly recruited soldiers may be difficult to compete with that Ye Zhao's elite soldiers." Zhou Yu found Sun Ce and told him what he was worried about.

When Sun Ce heard this, he nodded silently, although he was known as the little overlord, but in fact he was not the kind of brave and unscrupulous horseman, he was also proficient in the art of war, and when he knew the sky, he looked at Zhou Yu and said, "Gong Jin is saying, retreat?" ”

Zhou Yu nodded, although it is a pity to give up the Yellow River, but now, it can only be exchanged for space for time, besides, most of the people in Qingzhou were moved away by Cao Cao, the value is actually not very high, it is better to take the initiative to retreat, first, you can free up more time to train the army, second, the climate in the land of Jianghuai is not as cold as here, and third, bring Ye Zhao's soldiers and horses over to fight again, and you can form a pincer attack with Cao Cao.

"Just like Gong Jin said, withdraw the army, but you can't cheapen that Ye Zhao, while the river is not frozen now, all the people in Qingzhou will be moved to Xuzhou!" Sun Ce said decisively.

Originally, Qingzhou was relocated by Cao Cao, and the population has withered, and this time Sun Ce moved again, no matter who occupies Qingzhou in the future, how to restore the population will be a big problem.

However, to Sun Ce's surprise, there was such a big movement here, but Fang Yue and Ding Li did not move at all, and they had no intention of coming to stop it, allowing them to move the population away, originally, Sun Ce had prepared an ambush, as long as Ding Li and Fang Yue crossed the river, they would face the attack, but now it seems that many preparations have been done useless, and people have not paid attention to their intentions at all, although Sun Ce has moved away more than 300,000 people, but he has not succeeded in reaching Ye Zhao, which makes Sun Ce a little depressed.
