Chapter 551 Attached (2/2) Ask for a ticket, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation ticket!

After daybreak, the Luhan mission set off again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

However, this time, the size and lineup of the Luhan mission have become much larger. The Haw Par Rider was dragged out of the ranks of the mission and changed to a guard of honour. This time, in order to welcome the arrival of the Lu Han Kingdom, Cao Cao also made a real investment and greeted him with the honor guard of the vassal state. The entire honor guard procession, there are thousands of people, there are flags in front of the road, and there are chariots and horses accompanying behind, and the momentum is huge.

This is also Cao Cao's arrangement!

Through this method, I will tell everyone that he has made remarkable achievements since he was in the Son of Heaven's crusade against Buchen.

Look, even overseas states have come to join it, what does it mean? It shows that Cao Sikong is in charge of the court, and his actions have greatly increased the prestige of the Central Plains.

This is of great significance to Cao Cao's next step in setting up the Prime Minister's Mansion and setting up thirteen Cao......

As for the Emperor of Han?

Who really cares!

Perhaps, only those old ministers in the court still have favor for the Han family. However, there are also many people who think about fame and profit. Once Cao Cao really set up the Prime Minister's Mansion, how many courtiers there will be in the Han family at that time, it is no longer possible to guess.

Cao Peng walked with the guard of honor.

But around, there is a little more family to follow.

Lu Lan disguised herself as a man and became one of Cao Peng's subordinates.

She returned to the Central Plains this time in the hope of meeting Cao Peng again. As for government affairs, Gao Shun has his own to deal with. She is about to arrive in Xudu, and if she continues to mix in the mission, she will inevitably show her flaws. After all, in Xudu, there are too many masters. Whether it is Xun Yu Xun Yu or Guo Jia Dong Zhao, they are not the kind of people who can rub sand in their eyes. If you are not in Xudu, it may be more convenient. But after arriving in Xudu, the mission will inevitably encounter attention from all sides. Who dares to guarantee that Lu Lan will not be seen through?

Lu Lan left the Central Plains at the beginning of Jian'an, and it has been nearly ten years.

But she had appeared in Xiapi after all. Even if the eighteenth year of the female college changes, there are many changes in her appearance and the original, but it is inevitable that someone will recognize her.

Cao Peng and Lu Lan drank until they were ugly.

During the separation, he suddenly thought of this problem, so he advised Lu Lan not to stay in the mission anymore.

It is better to act as Cao Peng's personal guard, and after arriving in Xudu, he hid in Fengchehou's mansion. When the mission arrives in Xudu, all eyes will be on the mission. In contrast, the attention received by Cao Peng and Fengche Houfu will be greatly reduced, and it will undoubtedly be safer for Lu Lan. Lu Lan also felt that Cao Peng's idea was very reasonable. She didn't come here to belong, she just wanted to meet Cao Peng. Now that I can get along with Cao Peng day and night, I just fit my mind. At the same time, in Gao Shun's view, the safer Lu Lan is, the better he is. He didn't approve of Lu Lan coming in the first place, but he couldn't resist Lu Lan's insistence on coming...... To put it bluntly, since they landed in Bohai County, Gao Shun has been worried in his heart. Being able to hide traces is also in line with Gao Shun's meaning.

As a result, Cao Peng had one more person by his side.

Cao Peng came from Xudu and brought more than 1,000 people.

Who is the honor guard and who is the servant, no one knows at all.

Including Cao Zhen, he didn't notice that there was another person around Cao Peng. So along the way, it was safe and stable, and there was no mistake.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

On September 26 of the 11th year of Jian'an, the Han Kingdom of the Lü clan arrived in Xudu.

Cao Cao, on behalf of the Han Emperor, led hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to greet him. As for Cao Peng, it was logical to lead Lu Lan out of the team......

"Gao Sima, don't come unharmed."

When Cao Cao saw Gao Shun, he couldn't help but feel all kinds of emotion.

This is his old rival!

When he clashed with Lu Bu in Puyang, he was not less cleaned up by Gao Shun. And most of his subordinate generals have clashed with Gao Shun.

Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Cao Ren, Cao Hong......

Almost all of them have suffered losses from Gao Shun.

After Cao Cao killed Lu Bu, he wanted to recruit Gao Shun.

It's a pity that Cao Peng privately sent Gao Shun and Lu Bu's family to overseas.

In a flash of ten years, the fierce general under Lu Bu's tent has now become the great Sima of the Lu Han Kingdom. In terms of position, Gao Shun's position is no worse than Cao Cao. is also the third duke, the position of the great Sima, even higher than Sikong. Therefore, when Cao Cao saw Gao Shun, on the one hand, he secretly sighed that the world was impermanent, and on the other hand, he couldn't help it, and complained a little about Cao Peng.

This kid is really bad for me......

After Cao Cao picked up Gao Shun, he entered the capital together.

Cao Peng took Lu Lan and returned to Fengchehou's Mansion unknowingly.

As soon as Lu Lan settled down, he received a notice from Liu Ye and asked him to go to take care of affairs. The so-called reference is a relatively nice way to put it. To put it mildly, it's 'come and serve.'" After the arrival of the Lu Han Kingdom, there will inevitably be a reception and a banquet, but that is all retreat. To put it bluntly, it's a cutscene...... As a great Honglu, Liu Ye had to make contact with the deputy of the mission.

The two sides listed the various articles to be discussed, and then submitted them to Cao Cao and Gao Shun respectively.

The next day, the discussion between Cao Cao and Gao Shun was to first select some things that were easy to agree on from these articles and test them. With the passage of one by one, when the two sides basically reached an agreement, the Han Emperor would appear on the stage and express his acceptance of the annexation of the Lu Han Kingdom.

Finally, celebrate!

That's pretty much it.

Liu Ye is responsible for communication and consultation, and Cao Cao is responsible for making decisions.

As for Emperor Han, when he finally appeared, he was almost a puppet role, and he was basically unable to participate in specific discussions.

Both sides are sincere, so don't worry about losing.

Cao Cao personally ordered and arranged the location of the mission. Gao Shun was secretly glad that Cao Peng reminded him to take Lu Lan away in advance. Otherwise, you will need to register your name after you move into the inn. When the time comes, it is easy to show flaws. Lu Lan is by Cao Peng's side, and it is easy to get in and out of the station. After all, Cao Peng was an interpreter and was responsible for the reception of the mission. So, getting in and out of the station, it's a no-brainer.

On the night of the delegation's arrival in Xudu, there were no substantive consultations between the two sides.

Liu Ye and Deputy Shi Lu Han first got in touch and prepared for negotiation...... Cao Cao set up a banquet in Sikong Mansion to entertain Gao Shun.

And just like that, nothing happened all night.

From the second day, negotiations between the two sides also began.

When the Lu Han Kingdom came this time, he put forward several conditions. The first condition is Cao Peng...... This problem has been solved, and Cao Peng, as a translator, no longer needs to discuss it; Second, Lü's Han Kingdom hoped to receive Cao Cao's patronage, and pleaded for the opening of the three ports of Haihekou (Bohai County), Buqi County, Jieting (present-day Jiaozhou Bay), and Yuzhou Mountain.

After Cao Cao pacified Youzhou, the four counties of Liaodong were opened to strengthen the trade between the Han Kingdom of Lü and the Central Plains.

The third thing, given that there are many indigenous people in the Lu Han Kingdom, it is not conducive to supervision and governance. Therefore, it was hoped that 30,000 households could be relocated from the Central Plains to strengthen the control of the Lu Han Kingdom over the three Koreas.

Fourth, I implore you to convey the baggage.

The fifth thing......

This time, the Lu Han Kingdom issued a total of nine major items and a total of 27 requests.

With the exception of Article 1, all other issues required serious consultations.

It is a good thing to open the port and strengthen the exchanges. It's just that there are still many details to be negotiated on how the two sides trade and how to communicate, and this matter is not too big a problem. What is really difficult is that the four counties of Liaodong and the relocation of 30,000 households of the people of the Central Plains are the focus of the consultations between the two sides. In Liaodong, there is a Gongsun clan as a strong ...... Historically, they later annexed Cao Cao and joined forces with Cao Cao to strike at Goguryeo, causing Goguryeo to suffer a crushing defeat and had to retreat to Marudu. At this time, the Gongsun clan and the Yuan clan were very close, and the relationship with Cao Cao was hostile. Open the four counties of Liaodong? It involved the countermeasures against Liaodong and later with the Goguryeo regime......

At this time, Goguryeo was the capital of the country.

In order to borrow troops from Goguryeo, Yuan Xi ceded Lelang County and Hexuansu County. Therefore, if Cao Cao agreed to open the four counties of Liaodong, it would indicate that after solving Yuan Xi, he would continue to use troops against Liaodong and Liaoxi. Cao Cao, are you willing to raise troops so continuously?

This question depends entirely on the outcome of the battle against Yuan Xi.

Therefore, Cao Cao was unable to reply for a while.

If 30,000 households were moved, that would be a population of 150,000.

The Central Plains has experienced wars, and the population is already somewhat scarce...... The relocation of 150,000 people to the Lu Han Kingdom is not a small number. The amount of manpower, material and financial resources required is extremely staggering. Not to mention, if 150,000 people arrive in the Lu Han Kingdom, it will strengthen the power of the Lu Han Kingdom. In case the Lü Han Kingdom grows stronger, will it become the second Goguryeo to stand on its own? Cao Cao also had to be cautious.

There are many aspects involved in this, and it needs to be carefully considered.

In this regard, Cao Peng has no right to speak, or even qualifications, to participate in the negotiations.

Yes, he is indeed kind to the Han Kingdom of the Lu family.

So what?

This is a matter between two countries, and it is difficult for personal feelings to mix. Even if it is Gao Shun, it is impossible to back down too much.

In short, as the two sides came into contact and agreements emerged, negotiations began to become intense.

As for Cao Peng, as the negotiations deepened, it became more and more relaxed. Later, let alone Cao Peng, even Liu Ye couldn't get involved in it. He is also happy to be idle, he simply doesn't worry about it anymore, most of the time, he will accompany Lu Lan in the Hou Mansion, and his life is easy.

In October of the 11th year of Jian'an, Cao Cao and Gao Shun reached an agreement on the population involved.

Within three years, Cao Cao would move 100,000 people to the Han kingdom of Lü. At the same time, the Lü Han Kingdom would also sell 120,000 indigenous slaves to the Central Plains. The entry of 100,000 Han Chinese into Sanhan will greatly improve the population and racial situation of the Lu Han Kingdom. And the 120,000 indigenous slaves, once they enter the Central Plains, are basically a drop in the ocean, and they will not have much impact, but can bring more labor to the Central Plains. This was a win-win situation, which could meet Gao Shun's requirements and control the population of the Lü Han Kingdom.

But then the negotiations didn't go well......

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Cao Peng didn't pay attention to the outcome of the negotiations!

Because he knew very well that Gao Shun came with great sincerity, and the matter of belonging was unstoppable. The reason why it is entangled in the four counties of Liaodong is, to put it bluntly, to get more benefits. In the past ten years, the straight man under Lu Bu's tent in the past has now learned the means.

Take the opportunity of the four counties of Liaodong to strive for more benefits for the Lu Han Kingdom......

This politics has always been the most tempering for people.

Even straight men are beginning to understand that they are playing some tricks to seek benefits!

In Sikong Mansion, Cao Cao and Gao Shun were at loggerheads.

And Cao Peng took this opportunity to recruit Lu Yu to his subordinates in silence.

Under the pretext that he was willing to publish for Lu Zhi, he first got in touch with Lu Yu. Then, through continuous contact with Lu Yu, I gradually learned about Lu Yu's situation.

Don't look at Lu Yu's famous family, his father Lu Zhi is famous and has a high status. In later generations, Lu Yu was the founder of the Fan Yang Lu family among the five surnames and seven families. Fanyang Lu's family, the ancestor is Lu Zhi, after Lu Yuguan worships Cao Wei Sikong, his son Lu Qin, Lu Zhi, Lu Chen and other four brothers are tired of high positions, to the time of Emperor Taiwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Lu Xuanshou should be ordered, into the imperial court, Fanyang Lu only became the northern high-ranking lord, and Taiyuan Wang, Zhaojun Li, Xingyang Zheng, Longxi Li, Boling Cui, Qinghe Cui and other high-ranking families, formed a wealthy noble.

At this time, Lu Yu was at a low point in his life.

Lu Zhi was an honest official, coupled with his uprightness and loyalty, and did not accumulate too much family property.

After Lu Zhi's death, the Lu clan immediately declined.

Especially after experiencing the war between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan, the Lu family suffered from the misfortune of the war and was almost destitute. Lu Yu's brother died in a military accident. Lu Yu even relied on his meager income to support the entire family. Lu Zhi has four sons, and now only one son of Lu Yu is still alive. The family is large and small, dozens of people, even if Cao Cao has great respect for Lu Zhi, but he can't give too much support.

Lu Yu is now leading a family, and in Xudu, he almost relies on the funding of Lu Zhi's friends back then, barely surviving......

Otherwise, he would not even have to ask for people to rub his works into books.

In these days, the author has no contribution fee.

There are no publishers or the like, and if you want to publish a book, you have to pay for it yourself. Sometimes, the books you publish don't sell for money, so you can only use them as gifts. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper was expensive, and even engraving printing had not yet appeared. Publishing a book is basically a money-losing business...... It's extremely expensive. Even Lu Yu's friends couldn't help much.

Moreover, it's not that if you have the money, you can help me publish a book.

If you want to help me publish a book, it depends on whether you have this identity......

Therefore, although Lu Zhi has great prestige, he has been unable to find a funder.

Cao Peng's prestige in Shilin is enough! At the same time, he is also known as the most profitable person under Cao Cao's account, with sufficient financial resources.

After obtaining the right to print Lu Zhi's works, Cao Peng gave Lu Yu a lot of funding.

Then after a lot of flickering, he finally moved Lu Yu and became his staff member to Nanyang County in the future. So far, the three people recommended by Guo Jia have all been attached.

On October 17 of the 11th year of Jian'an, Xudu ushered in the first snow.

It was on this day that after half a month of negotiations, the results were finally reached.

Cao Cao and Gao Shun, after negotiations were fruitless for a long time, each took a step back and reached a reunification. Subsequently, Gao Shun officially submitted his credentials to Cao Cao on behalf of the Lü Han State as the Grand Sima of the Lü Han Kingdom, and from then on, the Central Plains was the elder brother, and the Lü Han was the younger brother, and the generations were subordinate.

On the day the credentials were submitted, the entire capital of Xu vibrated for it......
