With the arrival of 187 A.D., the people of Huiji County were still not wealthy, but it was difficult to have a good year.

The means of using saltpeter to make ice began to appear, similar to the remote countryside like Jiangnan, many karst caves or caves, you can find those saltpeter piled up from bird droppings. The key is to purify this, a little bit of time is wasted.

A large number of sea fish have been frozen and began to be transported to various places for sale, even in Damo County, there are now fresh and cheap sea fish for sale, and all kinds of seafood have begun to appear in Huiji County, and even the tables of the people and magnates of Wu County.

Li Ming waved his hand and gave the people of the county about two catties of seafood per person, so that many people had a meal of meat during the New Year, although it was fish. The happiest is Xiapi Chen, Chen Deng and Chen Qi, and even Chen Cong have the habit of eating yusheng, but they are a little relieved to change the sea fish.

The translation of Wusheng and Damo County, as well as the establishment of Jinhua County, Yuan Valve and Wang Valve seemed to help, plus Li Ming had a huge contribution in the crusade against the remnants of the Yellow Turban, so the Han Emperor officially approved, and since then the Han Dynasty has an additional Jinhua County.

However, the four counties of Xianju, Tiantai, Yongkang, and Lishui set up by Li Ming privately did not report, and the power of the county seat was still in the hands of Shanyue.

The Peng clan began to walk out of Wuyi Mountain and Xianxialing, and entered the life of the four counties, and quickly became the new county commander. The four counties are no longer the Shanyue of a few villages, and have begun to have regular county lieutenants and county orders, and even about fifty defenders.

In the step by step squeezing, the traces of some thieves seem to have begun to become obvious. There are already Peng's disciples who have begun to track down, Li Ming doesn't want to rule, there is a force that is not under his control, especially the force that can mass-produce spirit beasts!

"Gu Yong is crowned this year, if Cai Saijiu thinks it is appropriate, I plan to appoint him as the county governor of Zhenxian County, and accumulate experience under Yu Xuan, what do you think?" Li Ming looked at Cai Yong.

Among the most outstanding seedlings, Gu Yong is the eldest, and he is already twenty years old this year. In half a year, it will be the day of the crown, and Li Ming's meaning is naturally to recruit Gu Yong under his command.

"It depends on what he means, Gu Yong has been by my side for more than three years, and his ability to govern is good, even if Taishou doesn't solicit him, I'm afraid I will recommend it to Taishou!" Of course, Cai Yong hopes to see his disciples become famous as soon as they finish their studies.

This is of great help to both Gu Yong and the reputation of Huiji Academy.

Gu Yong's conquest of Li Ming agreed without hesitation. The Gu family and the Li family are good friends, especially now that the Yuan Valve has made it clear that the carriage and horses are going to start infiltrating Wu County, and the Wang family is also ready to move, the three family heads of Jiangdong all hope to contain the infiltration of Yuan Valve and Wang Valve through Li Ming, the key is that the business of Huiji County is getting bigger and bigger, and they also have great expectations for Huiji County.

Li Ming then visited Cui Yan in Wusheng County and Zhou Shang in Yuji County. The former has done all the work in an orderly manner during the half year he has been in office, even if Li Ming is a fool, he can know that Cui Yan is definitely a talent.

In the face of Li Ming's overtures, Cui Yan introduced his younger brother Cui Lin. Li Ming almost didn't think about it, so he appointed Cui Lin as the magistrate of Jinhua County, and ruled next to his brother Cui Yan. Cui Yan's side also expressed enough good feelings.

Visiting Zhou Shang is actually for Zhou Yu. Based on Cai Yong's evaluation, Li Ming is almost certain that this Zhou Yu is the governor of Eastern Wu. It's a pity that Zhou Yu specializes in academics, but he ignores things other than schoolwork.

Li Ming had no choice but to take Zhou Shang's path. But he didn't want Zhou Shang to reject Li Ming's overtures. In official business, it is possible to do official business, but when it comes to private affairs, it can be avoided if it can be avoided.

Just when Li Ming was having a headache in order to attract talents, Yuan Valve was planning a very important action internally. This operation is very hidden, except for a few people such as the head of the family, even the children of the side family do not know.

Unfortunately, among these people, there is a person named Cao Cao!

When Cao Cao learned of this, he immediately secretly contacted Liu Ting in Hanzhong and used him to pass the news to the Han Emperor. Since Yuan Valve dares to do it, then there must be their internal response in the palace, which means that if he reports it directly, the Cao family will be unlucky.

Cao Cao didn't want to get involved, so at least he had to make a performance of staying out of the matter. Yuan Valve's sake was for Yuan Shao's sake, and he didn't embarrass him. However, the latter was also strictly monitored, and Cao Cao did not resist, but silently made a reclusive appearance.

"Yuan Valve! The big man can wait for Bo Er to wait for him to do such a thing! Liu Ting received Cao Cao's secret letter, and after Shen Yue verified it, he immediately fell on the table in anger.

Emperor Han planned to tour the north in May, this matter came from the instigation of Zhao Zhong, but he did not expect Yuan to receive the news in advance, and united with Jizhou Assassin Shi Wang Fen and others, planning to abolish the Han Emperor and support the King of Hefei as the new monarch.

"How old is the king of Hefei? I'm only three years old this year! Yuan Valve is really good! Liu Ting only felt that he was going to be angry.

This makes it clear that Yuan Valve intends to support a puppet to ascend to the top, and then after a period of adaptation, promote Chan Rang. Direct rebellion will definitely be doomed, but legitimate Zen concessions can solve the problem of moral injury.

Coupled with Yuan Valve's troops in the Central Plains, Hebei, and Wu County, even if there is turmoil in these places, they can be pacified as soon as possible, and Yuan Valve's country will definitely be very stable.

"It's nothing, as long as you find a way to stop Your Majesty's northern tour. As long as His Majesty cancels the Northern Tour, with Wang Fen's coward, I am afraid that I will have to scare myself to death first! It's just that there are problems, we directly admonish, how should the reason be said? Yuan Valve conspired to depose the establishment and then drag Cao Cao in? Don't say anything else, expose us, and Yuan Valve won't let us go! Shen Yue looked at Liu Ting very seriously, theoretically Liu Ting was the king of Hanzhong, but Yuan Valve definitely wouldn't care about the king of Hanzhong.

"If something happens to my father, will Yuan Valve also let me go? It is estimated that my two younger brothers will not be spared! Liu Ting snorted coldly, he knew the trade-off, and it was quite unwise to directly carry it with Yuan Valve, but it was the worst to sit back and watch everything happen.

"Since Shoude insists on doing so, then I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman!" Since it was Liu Ting who wanted it, then Shen Yue naturally had to do her best to protect him.

In March, tens of thousands of bandits gathered in Changsha to rebel.

In view of the merits of the Xinbi crusade against the Montenegrin army last year, the imperial court named him Changsha Taishou and went south to suppress bandits. Xin Bi gladly received the order, and took the people of the headquarters to the south to beg for thieves, and there was a fierce general under his command, named Zhang He, and the words were good.

When Zhang He was in rebellion with the Yellow Turban Thieves, he was elected by the villagers to form a volunteer army to fight against the Yellow Turban Thieves. Knowing that Xinbi was crusading against the Montenegrin army, he came with more than 1,000 villagers. In the battle, he repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and was regarded as his right-hand man by Xinbi. This time I went south, and I naturally had to take it with me!

In a blink of an eye, the time slowly arrived in mid-April, and Liu Hong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, had already begun to pack his bags and prepare to set off. Yuan Valve's side also began to open Luo, arranging heavy troops in Yecheng, waiting for the Han Emperor to throw himself into the net.

Just when the large army was about to set off, a yellow gate said that Liu Ting, the king of Hanzhong, asked to see him. In the end, it was his own blood and blood, Liu Hong naturally couldn't see it, but he was dissatisfied with his unauthorized departure from the feudal country, so he asked: "Why are you here?" ”

"Father, my son-in-law received the news, this time I am on a northern tour, I am afraid that there will be an accident!" Liu Ting arched his hand and said.
