Chapter 273: Crowned King

Yuan Shao, Cao Cāo and Gongsun Zan are all trying to develop their own strength, and Liu Bei is not idle, he knows very well that if he wants to rely on others, he must be unreliable, he can only rely on himself, he can only recruit troops and expand his strength through his own efforts, and there is an excellent opportunity in front of him

Liu Bei was sent to build a new castle for the ministers, this is a chore, thankless kind, the new castle is just a temporary residence, if you spend a lot of effort to repair, the soldiers will complain, unwilling to spend their efforts on it, but if you want to repair it sloppily, the ministers will be unhappy, will blame Liu Bei for doing a bad job

Yuan Shao was born in a wealthy family, he thought about things, he thought about things from the above two aspects, and he thought that he thought about it thoroughly, Liu Bei, a sycophant and a guy who pretended to be a member of the royal family, had to be repaired by him to a green bag

It's a pity that although Liu Bei was called uncle by the crown prince Liu Wei, he didn't grow up in a wealthy house, so he thought things were different from the children of a wealthy family, he took thousands of soldiers to the place where the new city was built, in fact, it was not far from the old city, but it was only a few hundred steps away. 【Reading.com】

Liu Bei quickly got in touch with these soldiers, and kept asking how the recruits were eating, who else was at home, what plans they had after the battle, what were their hopes for life, and so on

Although Liu Bei didn't give them any benefits, they all thought that Liu Bei was a good person and a good general, and they were very willing to talk to Liu Bei, and even told Liu Bei that Yuan Shao scolded the soldiers too much when he was training, and many soldiers escaped. These recruits can be sent to repair the city wall without training, and not only do they not feel slighted, but they feel fortunate that building the city wall is just an effort, and they do not need to be beaten and scolded

After Liu Bei listened to the complaints of the soldiers, he was overjoyed, he had just arrived in Yuancheng, and he didn't know the situation here, but as soon as the soldiers said this, he understood, he could completely pull a team from here, and pull away the team from here, which was much more convenient than going to the countryside to recruit troops, the recruits here all had weapons, and the military uniforms were all fully equipped, and there were cloth shoes to wear, of course, it didn't matter if there were no cloth shoes, he could teach the soldiers to weave straw shoes

The next day, Wang Yun took the ministers and family members to Yuan Shao's camp, Yuan Shao's eyes were red, and Yuan Kui's eyes were also red, and they went out of the city together to greet Wang Yun and others.

Waiting at the gate of the city, Yuan Kui glanced at Yuan Shao and said, "Virtuous nephew, your eyes are too red."

Yuan Shao also glanced at Yuan Kui, and said with a wry smile: "Uncle, why aren't you like this?"

Yuan Kui thought for a while and said, "That Wang Yun's words are the most, and they are extremely annoying. If he asks about our eyes, you will reply that it is because he is worried about state affairs, and in order to help the prince ascend the throne smoothly, he has not slept all night, so his eyes are so red."

Yuan Shao nodded, he rubbed his eyes, only felt that his eyes were burning pain, and thought: "It's smoked by candles, I have to let the doctor take a look, otherwise my eyes hurt like this, and I can't do anything."

A short time later, Cao Cāo and Wang Yun arrived with their ministers. Wang Yun walked in the front, Cao Cāo followed, and behind them were ministers with high official positions, there were more than a dozen, and then there were low official positions, and it was impossible to count how many there were for a while

When they came closer, Yuan Shao couldn't bear it, he and Yuan Kui sighed at the same time, and the two of them widened their red eyes together, and looked at Wang Yuncao and the group of ministers, and saw that their eyes were all red, all of them, without exception

Before Wang Yun and Cao Cāo came, they also found that each other's eyes were red, and they couldn't help but be red, they discussed with the minister how to write the essay against Li Qin, discussed it all night, changed it more than a dozen times, and there were many people with mixed opinions, everyone quarreled and quarreled, and finally the opinions were unified, tired all night, and couldn't rest at dawn, and they had to come over immediately, can their eyes not be red, and it is strange if they are not red

Seeing this situation, Yuan Shao stepped forward to meet the ministers, and without waiting for Wang Yun and Cao Cāo to ask, he preemptively asked: "Lord Wang, Brother Meng De, what's wrong with your eyes, why are they so red, but you didn't rest well last night?" If you're in a hurry, you must be tired, right? ”

Wang Yun snorted, um-huh, and said: "This, the fatigue of the journey is also a reason, but it is mainly because we are worried about state affairs, and we always think about how to successfully help His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascend the throne, so that Cāo is overworked, so my eyes are so red." By the way, looking at Boss Yuan and General Yuan, your eyes are also red, but because you are not resting well? ”

Yuan Shao and Yuan Kui glanced at each other and thought, "Hey, the reason we thought of was actually used by them first"

Yuan Kui hurriedly said: "Not really, we are crying, the reason is the same as yours, as ministers, of course we have to worry about state affairs, now that the crown prince is undecided, can we not be in a hurry?" Red eyes are crying, crying"

Wang Yun sighed, smiled reluctantly, and said, "Let's go see the Empress Dowager Dong and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there are some things that can't be delayed, and they have to be resolved as soon as possible."

Yuan Shao and Yuan Kui naturally did not object, and led everyone into the city to see the Empress Dowager Dong.

Here in Yuancheng, everyone has different thoughts, but in Luoyang, everyone is united

Li Qin adopted Jia Xu's suggestion and set up the third son of the emperor Liu Xie as the new monarch, but he did not go into the city to participate in the enthronement ceremony, although from the perspective of the ministers, it is not too "fulfilled", but the current situation is that the Yellow Turban Army will come at any time, and the contender for the throne, the crown prince Liu Wei, has a large group of courtiers to support, in this case, everything can only be from power, and no one will blame Li Qin, of course, Luoyang is under the control of Li Qin, who accuses him, it is equivalent to getting along with his own head, no one is so stupidShut up when it's time to shut up, this is Junjie's behavior

The palace was burned, Liu Xie had no place to "work", and there was no place to even promote a dynasty, just when Yuan Kui escaped from Beijing, his family's house was not small, Li Qin ordered Jia Xu to place the little emperor in Yuan's house, which was a temporary palace.

The Yuan family didn't have time to escape in Beijing, and there were many people, after all, it was impossible for such a big family to escape all. Li Qin was very interesting, he didn't do anything to the people of the Yuan family, and he also arranged a job for them to renovate the palace, which is a big deal, even if the palace can't be completely repaired, but sort out a few halls, and then let the little emperor move in, this is not difficult to do, but the cost is ......

Why didn't you kill the people of the Yuan family? Why not confiscate the Yuan family's property? Why do you want to let the people of the Yuan family shoulder the heavy responsibility of repairing the palace? Isn't it just to give the people of the Yuan family a chance to serve the new monarch, and the expenses required to repair the palace, the Yuan family can't go out, is it difficult to let the little emperor go out by himself?

The people of the Yuan family also know this, and they are closely watched, and they can't escape, so they can only bite the bullet and spend their own money to repair the palace for the little emperor, although the Yuan family has deep roots and has accumulated countless wealth over the years, but during this time, they have also spent money like flowing water, and they have to thank the little emperor, thank Li Qin, for giving them a chance to be loyal and make every effort to repair the palace

After the enthronement ceremony of the little emperor, Li Qin planned to raise troops to the east and swept the Yellow Turban Army first. Although Li Qin was very sympathetic to the lives of the poor people, and also agreed that where there is oppression, there is resistance, but now is not the time to carry forward the rebellion, and the situation must be stabilized quickly

Li Qin originally wanted to use the name of the little emperor to issue a few more orders related to the national economy and people's livelihood, not only to stabilize the places where there is no chaos, but also to let the people in the chaotic places see hope, as long as they go home, they can live a stable life, but Jia Xu disagreed, he did not agree with Li Qin to issue orders in the name of the little emperor, so he simply issued them in the name of Li Qin, so that the development of Li Qin and the Fujiao Army was better, Li Qin thought about it, and agreed.

As soon as the matter in Luoyang came to an end, and various orders continued to be issued, Li Qin saw that it was almost over, so he decided to personally lead the army to crusade against the Yellow Turban Army, but he still did not enter the city

But he didn't enter the city, but the little emperor couldn't wait, even if Liu Xie wanted to wait, Zhang asked them to refuse, taking advantage of Li Qin's absence from Beijing, he hurriedly wrote a holy decree in the name of the little emperor and promoted Li Qin to an official, this official name is very interesting, it turned out to be "Taishi", Li Qin became Li Taishi from Li Junhou

After receiving this holy decree, Li Qin couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't expect that he would also become a prince one day, but he didn't like this official name very much, so he resigned. After Jia Xu knew Li Qin's thoughts, he hinted to the little eunuch who sent the decree, Li Lang wanted a separate official name, or simply made a king

The little eunuch had no choice but to go back to the city and inform Zhang Rang, Zhang Rang and the other ten permanent servants discussed, then crown Li Qin as king? But Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, once killed the white horse to sue the sky, and those who are not surnamed Liu are not allowed to be crowned kings, this is the ancestral system, and now Li Qin wants to be crowned king, is that a promise, or not a promise?

Zhang let them discuss it and found a flexible reason, when Emperor Gaozu killed the white horse and sued the sky, it was said to the ministers, telling the ministers not to make people with the surname Liu kings, but it was not said to them eunuchs, so the ministers had to obey the emperor's will, but their eunuchs did not use it; There is also the fact that the old capital Chang'an is in the hands of Li Qin, and now Luoyang is also in the hands of Li Qin, the palace was burned, the little emperor lived in the house of the fleeing minister, and even the little emperor dìdū was Li Qinli's, otherwise the Han Dynasty is now no longer even the emperor, what kind of ancestral system is still kept, if Emperor Gaozu is dissatisfied, let him jump out of the grave, let's theorize, if he can't jump out, then Emperor Gaozu will acquiesce

The ten permanent servants didn't go to ask Liu Xie, the eunuchs were doing things, and the little emperor went coolly, he didn't have the right to send a prescription, what did the little kid know, so he didn't have to answer him

A holy decree was written, covered with a jade seal, named Li Qin as the king of Xia, wrote a holy decree, and sent it to Li Qin the next day, in order to tie up Li Qin, even the gold seal was cast overnight, the size was as big as the jade seal of the country, but the jade seal of the country was jade, and Li Qin's was a gold seal
