In the mansion, Zhang Lu's civil and military forces gathered together, all discussing matters related to the jade seal.

Yang Ren advised Zhang Lu: "Shijun occupies the land of Hanzhong and governs Nanzheng. Today, someone has dug up the jade seal in the south of Nanzheng, isn't this God going to make Shijun call the south lonely? ”

After Yang Ren finished speaking, Zhang Lu's subordinates responded one after another, and even Zhang Lu himself was a little moved.

Dominating one side to the south and becoming the king can be said to be something that every man desires. Now Zhang Lu is spreading the five buckets of rice in Hanzhong, and the people are returning to their hearts, which is the time to be complacent.

Now that a jade seal has suddenly been born, it is impossible for Zhang Lu to have no ideas in his heart.

Yan Pu saw Zhang Lu's intentions, and immediately felt shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to admonish: "There are more than 100,000 households in Hanchuan, rich in property, fertile land, and lofty mountains on all sides, which is very dangerous. ”

"The lord occupies the land of Hanchuan, and he can assist the Son of Heaven and achieve the hegemony of Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin. Even if things are not good, you can also follow Dou Rong, and you can be rich and prosperous in your life. ”

"Now it is enough to be able to divide one side, and there is no need to claim the throne for the sake of false names. I hope that the lord will not be the king for the time being, and will cause trouble for himself. ”

Yan Pu knew that Zhang Lu had more than enough to defend the city, but he was not enterprising enough, and he did not have the posture of a hero. For example, although there is a great chaos today, and the princes rise together, there are few people who dare to call themselves kings and emperors.

Even if some people claim to be kings and emperors in vain, they will only bring about their own destruction in the end. Therefore, Yan Pucai tried his best to persuade Zhang Lu, hoping that he would not be king.

He is a standard scholar, he is not interested in Zhang Lu's five buckets of rice, and he never calls Zhang Lu a master, but calls him the lord.

Zhang Lu is very generous to his subordinates and the people under his rule, and he doesn't care what they call him.

Although Zhang Lu is not a generation of heroes, he can also be good at good words. After hearing Yan Pu's words, his heart suddenly wavered, and he set his eyes on Yang Song.

If there was no reminder from Dong Zhao, Yang Song would not have been involved in this matter.

However, as Dong Zhao said, the relationship between the Yang family and Zhang Lu has long been inextricably linked, and if Zhang Lu can be the king, their Yang family's status in Hanzhong will also rise.

As for the matter of calling the king to cause trouble for himself, Yang Song was a little unimpressed. Hanzhong is vast and the people are rich, the grain and grass are abundant, the mountains and rivers are steep, and it is extremely difficult for the rest of the princes to attack it.

Feeling Zhang Lu's gaze, Yang Song hurriedly said: "As Yan Gongcao said, there are many people in Hanchuan, the country is rich and the people are strong, and the surrounding terrain is steep. Even if the rest of the princes did not come to attack with their own strength, why should we be afraid? ”

"Now that the people of Hanchuan are interested in making the king return to their hearts, the jade seal has been dug out of the woods in the south again, which is exactly why God has chosen Shijun to let Shijun be the king here."

As the saying goes: if you don't take it, you will be blamed for it. If Shijun does not claim to be the king at this time, I am afraid that he will chill the hearts of the people of Hanzhong, and he will cause trouble for himself. ”

Zhang Lu was shocked when he heard this, he was the leader of the Five Bucket Rice Dao, and he was naturally very superstitious about ghosts and gods. Now when I heard Yang Song say this, I suddenly hesitated a little.

In the final analysis, Zhang Lu is not a generation of heroes, and indecisiveness is inevitable.

However, the influence of the Yang clan in the land of Hanchuan is extraordinary. Now that even Yang Song, the helmsman of the Yang family, has spoken, Yang Ang, Yang Ren, and Yang Bai naturally advised Zhang Lu to be king.

With these people at the beginning, Zhang Lulu's call for him to be the king has become even higher. Everyone knows that if Zhang Lu can go further, their status will also rise.

If you vigorously oppose Zhang Lu's claim to be king at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not make people feel that they have two hearts. Therefore, whether these people are sincere or false, they have begun to persuade Zhang Lu to become king.

Yan Pu saw everyone's performance, and hurriedly admonished: "The matter of the lord being the king is absolutely impossible, Yuan Highway occupies the land of Sanzhou, and there are many generals under his command, and he vainly claims that the emperor is in trouble, let alone the lord?" ”

Yang Song immediately sneered twice and said: "Yuan Highway is the emperor, and the lord is only the king, how can the two be compared?" You have repeatedly blocked Shijun from becoming king, do you have two hearts? ”

Yang Song's words were heart-wrenching, and the rest of the generals immediately set their eyes on Yan Pu. When Yan Pu heard this, he immediately felt anxious, pointed at Yang Song and said, "You don't spew blood here!" ”

Both of them are advisors under Zhang Lu, but they are not of the same mind. Yan Pu was disgusted with Yang Song's greed for money and forgetfulness, but Yang Song looked down on Yan Pu's background, and was even more jealous of Zhang Lu's trust in Yan Pu.

In the past, the two often argued in front of Zhang Lu, because Yan Pu was indeed talented, how could Yang Song, who was so reckless, be Yan Pu's opponent? Therefore, the two competed with Yang Song and often fell behind.

This time he finally seized an opportunity, how could Yang Song let Yan Pu go easily? He immediately prepared to take advantage of the victory to pursue and put a big hat on Yan Pu's head.

When Zhang Lu saw the posture of the two, he knew that they were going to argue again, so he hurriedly played a round and said, "Okay, okay, you two don't have to say anything more." ”

After speaking, Zhang Lu set his eyes on his younger brother Zhang Wei and said, "Gongzhi, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Zhang Wei frowned and thought for a while, and said: "Hanzhong is steep, the country is rich and the people are strong, and the people are in their hearts. Now that a jade seal has been born, hundreds of officials have repeatedly advised their brother to be crowned king, if they don't obey, I'm afraid it will chill everyone's hearts. ”

When Zhang Lu heard his brother's words, he immediately said: "Since this is the case, according to your words, look for a good day and auspicious day to be crowned king!" ”

Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Yan Pu immediately couldn't help but sigh secretly and didn't say anything more. All the officials advised Zhang Lu to be the king, but he Yan Pu alone was also difficult to support.

Yang Song defeated Yan Pu today, and he was immediately very happy in his heart.

After he returned to the mansion, he summoned Dong Zhao and said, "If I hadn't listened to you today, I wouldn't have tried my best to persuade Shijun to become the king, let alone lose the face of that Yan Pu." ”

"In the future, as long as I Yang is in Hanchuan, I will definitely be able to protect your family."

Dong Zhao hurriedly pretended to be grateful and said, "Thank you Yang Gong!" ”

"It's just that I've always heard that Shijun attaches great importance to Yan Gongcao, and if the matter of sealing the king drags on for a long time, I'm afraid it will change."

Yang Song thought for a while, and immediately said: "It's okay, I will definitely urge the lord to become king as soon as possible." ”

Generally speaking, it is not a trivial matter to be crowned king, if the preparation is grand enough, even if it drags on for a year and a half, it is not impossible.

However, with the Hanchuan Yang clan maneuvering around, in just half a month, Zhang Lu had already prepared everything for the king.

In this way, Zhang Lu proclaimed himself the king of Hanning in Hanzhong, and the world shook.
