Chapter 238: Division
Fa Zheng listened to Zhu Rong's words, smiled, nodded and said, "It's understandable that the queen doesn't believe me!" He stood up and walked to the bookcase, picked up a letter, turned it around and handed it to Zhu Rong, and said with a smile: "This is a handwritten letter sent by the general, take a look." Zhu Rong frowned slightly, took the letter, and read it.
After reading the letter, he looked up at Fa Zheng, "The general is willing to let Nanzhong be autonomous?" The tone of expression seemed incredulous.
Fa Zheng smiled and said, "Isn't this your wish?" He walked across from Zhu Rong and sat down.
Zhu Rong glanced at Fa Zheng and asked with some suspicion: "The general is really willing to be autonomous in Nanzhong?" ”
Fa Zheng nodded, "This is absolutely true!" But there are conditions......"
Zhu Rong sneered: "I knew that the general would not give us this right in vain!" What does the Great General want? ”
Fa Zhengdao: "There are only two. The first is that it must be recognized as a part of the Han Empire, and the second is that it must accept the military dispatch of the great general. In addition to these two points, it is up to you to decide! ”
Zhu Rong pondered for a moment, "There is no problem with the first one. Second, "Looking up at Fa Zheng, he frowned, "How do I know that you won't use this one to deliberately consume the strength of our various races?" Fa Zheng smiled and said, "It is impossible for the general to do such a thing!" You've also seen the Great General, do you think the Great General is such a person? Zhu Rong recalled Zhang Lang's appearance, and couldn't help but feel a wave in his heart, and he didn't make a sound anymore.
Fa Zheng carefully observed Zhu Rong's demeanor, "If the queens of all countries accept it, I will issue a canonization order to the queen on behalf of the general." ”
Zhu Rong hesitated, walked to the center of the hall, and knelt down on one knee. Fa Zheng returned to the bookcase and picked up a seal, turned around and came to Zhu Rong, and said with a very solemn face: "General of the Han Dynasty, on behalf of the Han Empire, I would like to canonize Zhu Rong as the queen of Nanzhong, lead all the departments of Nanzhong, and serve the empire!" Then he handed the seal forward. Zhu Rong raised his hands and took it. Looking at the seal in his hand, some feelings rose in his heart that he had never felt before.
Zhu Rong stood up.
Fa Zhengdao: "The relevant publicity and canonization orders will be issued to all parts of Nanzhong in the near future, and from now on, the officials of all counties and counties in Nanzhong will be completely managed by the queen, and the queen has the right to depose and decide!" ”
Zhu Rong nodded.
Fa Zheng said: "The queen will go back this time, please do her best to coordinate the interior, and then raise troops and join the troops directly under the general at Kuiguan to meet Sun Jianjun!" "Yes." Turned around and strode away.
Fa Zheng looked at Zhu Rong's back, frowned slightly, and muttered: "I don't know if this move of the general is good or bad!" "It turned out that it was Zhang Lang's own decision to give autonomy to the various ministries in Nanzhong, only Huang Yueying supported it, and the others, including Zhuge Liang and Jia Xu, were strongly opposed, thinking that their hearts would be different if they were not of our race, and if they were given so much power, it would definitely cause unforeseen disasters, although the opposition came one after another, but Zhang Lang finally insisted on his decision, he felt that as long as the control was good, the ministries of Nanzhong would become the strongest allies.
At the same time, 50,000 leopard troops had already arrived at Kuiguan, and soon after, the 250,000 land and water army led by Sun Jian arrived, and the onslaught began on the same day. On the one hand, Leopard Taowei relied on the steep terrain to resist the attack of Sun Jian's army, and on the other hand, he blocked the river with iron cable bed crossbows.
Just when Sun Jian's army on the south road was advancing westward, Sun Jian's army on the north road was storming Shangyong, an important town in the eastern part of Hanzhong, under the leadership of Zhou Yu.
His gaze temporarily turned to Nanzhong Yu Yuan. As mentioned earlier, Yu Yuan, located on the shore of Kunming Lake, can be said to be the most developed city in Nanzhong, and it is also the central city of the entire Nanzhong, but compared with the city in the Central Plains, this central city may be equivalent to the appearance of a county seat.
Zhu Rong and his party rushed back to Yu Yuan, and found that the atmosphere in the city seemed to be different, and everyone looked at her with a look of awe and worship.
Zhu Rong and his entourage came to the door of the palace, and a group of Han officials were waiting at the door, and when they saw Zhu Rong and his party, they bowed down together: "Meet Her Royal Highness the Queen." ”
Zhu Rong turned over and dismounted, and glanced at everyone, "You guys are ......?"
The official at the head said: "A few days ago, the Assassin Mansion issued an order from the general, and the queen was officially canonized as the king of Nanzhong, ruling all parts of Nanzhong, and all the subordinate officials in all places are under the queen's jurisdiction!" The order also says that if the Queen does not want us to stay, she can dismiss us! ”
Zhu Rong secretly exclaimed: I didn't expect him to really give me so much power!? Zhu Rong's heart couldn't help but rise with gratitude. He glanced at the official and said, "You all stay." ”
"Yes." The official respectfully agreed. Then he reported: "Queen, the chiefs of all the tribes have already come, and they are all staying in the inn, I wonder if the queen wants to see them?" ”
Zhu Rong thought for a while, "Call them here." ”
Officials clenched their fists in agreement.
Soon after, in the hall of the government office, the patriarchs of more than a dozen major clans in Nanzhong gathered in the hall. As soon as Meng Shu came, he asked urgently: "They all said that you were the king of Nanzhong of the Han people, is it true?" Everyone else looked concerned.
Zhu Rong nodded: "Like!" ”
Meng Huo laughed, "Good! The Han people are self-defeating! ”
Zhu Rong frowned, "You said something wrong!" Since the Great General has handed over Nanzhong to our autonomy, we should help the Great General! ”
Meng Shu was stunned, "What did you say?" ”
Zhu Rong said: "We have always wanted to manage our own place, and now this wish has finally come true, thanks to the general!" We should understand that since the general treats us so well, we should repay the general! How can we regenerate incidents? ”
Many patriarchs nodded. Meng Shu was very angry, pointed at Zhu Rong and shouted, "What made you change?" How do you talk like those Han Chinese officials? ”
Zhu Rong said lightly: "I haven't changed. Since the general treats us like friends and relatives, what reason do we have to betray the general? ”
Meng Shu shouted: "He is in a crisis at all, so he will treat us well, and after the incident, he will definitely attack us!" Don't be fooled by him! ”
"Nope! You're wrong! With the strength of the general, he could have swept us away at the beginning, and the general was sincere to us! ”
Meng Shu was so angry that he pointed at Zhu Rong and shouted, "You, you were poured ecstasy soup by that Lu Bu!" Hum! You want to surrender Lu Bu, I won't surrender! He turned his head and glanced at the patriarchs present, and said with his eyes: "Follow me if you don't descend!" Then he turned and walked outside, and the two patriarchs followed.
