Chapter 116: Bad News
At the west gate of Chang'an, three hundred carriages lined up slowly through the city gate and were about to go west. At this moment, the sound of hooves of a rider was hurried, and he quickly came towards the west gate.
But when he saw a gray-haired scribe with an angry face, he rode around the convoy, and stopped the way of the convoy.
The convoy was forced to stop, and the scribe stepped down from the carriage in front of him, raised his eyes and saw the old man on horseback, and couldn't help but be stunned, but said, "Dare to ask the elder, why are you blocking the way?" ā
The old man turned over and dismounted, stepped forward a few steps, and asked urgently, "Is there a book in this car?" ā
"Exactly." The scribe replied.
"Where is this going?" The old man continued to ask.
"Liangzhou."
"Why do you want to ship to Liangzhou?!" The old man shouted: "How dare you carry such a precious thing away?" Stop, transport back to the city, and put it back in its place! ā
"Forgive me!" The scribe's face was straight, and he replied: "Now these books belong to Liangzhou and no longer belong to the imperial court. ā
"Why is that?!" The old man's face changed.
"It's a deal between my father-in-law and Dong Xiangguo." The scribe patiently replied: "Dong Xiangguo exchanged these books for two thousand sets of armor. ā
"How so?!" The old man looked depressed: "Xiangguo is confused, just a soldier, how can he keep up with these precious books?!" Nope"
The old man hurriedly got on his horse and hurried into the city again.
Seeing this, the scribe shook his head and let the convoy set off and moved on.
said that the old man arrived at Xiangguo's Mansion and wanted to see Dong Zhuo.
There is a waiter who reported to Dong Zhuo and said: "There is General Zuo Zhonglang and Gaoyang Township Marquis Cai Bo to see you." ā
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he thought about it and asked the old man to come in.
This old man is the world-famous Cai Yong and Cai Bojiao.
"Old decay to meet Xiangguo!" Cai Yong bowed, opened his mouth and said: "Xiangguo, why do you exchange books for armor?!" Books are so expensive that they involve inheritance! ā
Dong Zhuo waved his hand with a smile and asked Cai Yong to sit down, and then said: "The truth is not unknown to Xiangguo. However, Mr. Bojiao, you should understand that the current situation in the imperial court is as dangerous as an egg, and the princes of Kwantung are rebellious and self-respecting, and the old man must expand his troops and horses to recruit a group of thieves! Moreover, when the book arrived in Li Zhengxi's hands, it was still a book of the Han Dynasty Li Zhengxi was willing to exchange his armor for books, which shows that this person attaches great importance to books, and if they are placed in his hands, they will not be destroyed lightly. ā
For Dong Zhuo, the soldiers and horses in his hands are the most important. To be able to make the army stronger, what are the mere books?!
When Cai Yong heard this, he knew that it was impossible for Dong Zhuo to change his words, so he couldn't help but look gloomy.
Subsequently, Dong Zhuo changed the topic and chatted with Cai Yong for a while, and Cai Yong left at this time.
To be honest, in Chang'an, he is the only one who can meet Dong Zhuo at will like Cai Yong, and is valued by Dong Zhuo.
Regardless of the three princes and nine kings, anyone else, Dong Zhuo will not see it if he can't think of it, and he won't give face at all.
Cai Yong is a university scholar, and Dong Zhuo naturally respects him. This is one of them.
Second, after Cai Yong was forcibly recruited by Dong Zhuo, he moved several times in three days and was reused, so he devoted himself to helping Dong Zhuo, which is the second.
Third, the reuse of Daxian is also Dong Zhuo's show to the world that he is not a martial artist who doesn't know anything, and he also has the meaning of buying horse bones with a thousand dollars
After reaching a deal with Dong Zhuo, Li Zheng's eyes were completely withdrawn from the Central Plains, looking at the northern grasslands, eyeing the tiger.
However, it is said that Li Zheng is hiding behind his back, and while supporting the Han family, he also secretly supports many small tribes. Sell them armor and grain in exchange for money, cattle, sheep, livestock, and people.
I made a lot of money for a while.
However, because of Li Zheng's promotion, the entire right Huns became a mess.
The small tribes under the three major clans are becoming more and more disobedient, and gradually do not take the three major clans in their eyes, and they are fighting separately and robbing their property, which is simply in full swing.
And what makes the three major clans helpless is that in this situation, it is almost difficult for them to intervene.
The only way is to use troops to suppress it.
The three major clans deviated from Li Zheng's plan, and they were ready to unite to exterminate the disobedient small tribes first, and then calm the situation before anything else.
Faced with this situation, Li Zheng gave ideas to many small tribes behind his back, asking them to unite and fight against the three major clans. And increase efforts to support these small tribes, and gradually reduce the support for Han Sui.
Even draw a huge pie - for example, if you defeat these three clans, they can become the rulers of the right Xiongnu.
Of course, Li Zheng knew that these small tribes united, although they had a lot of troops, but after all, they were scattered, and they had to confront the three major clans head-on, and they would lose more and win less.
But it doesn't matter, whatever they do. Whether it is a small tribe going against the sky and getting rid of the three major clans, or the three major clans suppressing the small tribes strongly, in the end, it is the internal loss of the Xiongnu. This can also achieve the goal of weakening the Huns.
Shenzhou grassland.
Since the Origin Tree broke out of the ground, the place where Li Zheng and the others exercised in the morning was changed to be next to the Origin Tree. The Origin Tree is indeed worthy of a treasure, but after only ten days, Li Zheng obviously felt the benefits.
Not only Li Zheng, but especially Xun Shuang, has changed the most.
Although Xun Shuang has a good mind and outstanding understanding, he is very effective in health practice. But after more than ten days of morning exercise under the origin tree, the gray hair on his head is gradually decreasing!
It's a sense of rejuvenation.
There is also Xi Zhicai, who has always been weak with facial paralysis. Although after arriving in Liangzhou, eating and drinking well, and being nourished by high-energy food, it is only subtle.
And after practicing boxing under the origin tree for more than ten days, he also became energetic, and between walking, he was full of wind and health.
And Li Zheng himself felt it the most.
Because of the extreme sensitivity of his senses, Li Zheng can clearly feel that every time he exercises in the morning, he can clearly feel that the special breath emitted by the origin tree is a vigorous breath, which will be absorbed smoothly and present an effect after entering the human body.
Now that Li Zheng is practicing in the morning, what he has performed is no longer boxing, but the movements contained in that set of physique strengthening skills. With Li Zheng's current body synthesis, he can only make the first five postures of this set of movements!
But even if there are only five postures, Li Zheng feels the wonderfulness of it. It's only been more than ten days, and with the assistance of the Origin Tree, Li Zheng's body has strengthened by one percent!
The effect is immediate!
However, Li Zheng was a little regretful that because of the difficulty of this set of movements, Xun You and others were far from meeting the standard of practice, otherwise Li Zheng would not hesitate to teach it to everyone.
After Li Zheng and his wife finished their morning exercises, they returned to the house, and after breakfast, Li Zheng was preparing to go to Baishuichuan with Xi Zhicai. With the intensification of the civil strife among the Huns on the grassland, Li Zheng felt that the time was almost ripe, so he wanted to personally preside over the final stage.
Called Xi Zhicai, the two discussed for a while, and were about to set off, but they received a news that made Li Zheng extremely angry!
Raising his hand to release the blue bird, Li Zheng couldn't hold back his anger anymore, and smashed the desk with a slap!
Xi Zhicai was shocked when he saw this, and couldn't help but say: "What did the lord do to make the lord so angry?" ā
Li Zheng took a few deep breaths, and the strong man pressed the anger in his chest, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Fu has an accident!" ā
Brother Fu?!
Xi Zhicai didn't know why, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help but take a breath.
"Is it Fu Nanrong?!" Xi Zhicai said softly.
Li Zheng nodded, gritted his teeth and said, "Yuan Shao should kill him sooner or later."
But it turned out that the news that Li Zheng had just received turned out to be about Fu Xie and Fu Nanrong!
The white head is as new, and the lid is as old as ever. Some people have been with him all their lives, and they are like strangers when they are old. Some people meet on the side, but they can see each other at first sight, life and death. Li Zheng and Fu Xie, in fact, have only been together for a few days. And earlier, Li Zheng went to rescue Fu Xie with a purpose.
But for Li Zheng, although they have only intersected for a few days, they have been deeply rooted in their hearts!
Fu Xie is a real brother who really cares about him. At that time, Li Zheng had just arrived in this era, and Fu Xie's care was like sunshine, warming people's hearts.
Therefore, in Li Zheng's heart, in this era, the most special person is not even his daughter-in-law Xun Ying, but Fu Xie!
When he got the news of Fu Xie's misfortune, Li Zheng couldn't suppress the anger and grief in his heart!
It's Yuan Shao!
After Fu Xie and Li Zheng separated, when they arrived in Luoyang, Emperor Ling dismissed Fu Xie from his official position and was given to stay at home.
Later, Emperor Ling died, and Fu Xie was newly activated, and because of his reputation, he was appointed as the Taishou of Jizhou Julu.
In fact, Li Zheng always wanted Fu Xie to come to Liangzhou, but he didn't know what reason to use. Fu Xie is loyal to the Han family, and Li Zheng is now a separatist prince of Ming Huanghuang. Li Zheng was afraid to meet Fu Xie and didn't know how to face him!
Every time I think of this, Li Zheng is entangled. Whether it was Han Sui or the Huns, Li Zheng said he would fight, and he would kill when he said he would. But in the face of Fu Xie, he couldn't do it simply.
However, at present, the world is in turmoil, and Li Zheng has always been worried about Fu Xie, with Fu Xie's character, he is very vulnerable to disasters. After thinking about it, he sent 300 elite soldiers to Jizhou to protect Fu Xie. In this regard, Fu Xie did not refuse.
However, today, Li Zheng has received bad news.
It turned out that after Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, Yuan Shao prepared to set up a new emperor in order to fight against Dong Zhuo, despite the opposition of many people. The target is on Youzhou Mu Liu Yu.
So in the name of the leader of the Kwantung princes, he sent Zhang Qi, the former Lelang Taishou, to meet Liu Yu and submit it to the public. But Liu Yu categorically refused.
Yuan Shao had no choice but to give up this plan.
Yuan Shao's plan did not succeed, but was criticized and condemned by many celebrities loyal to the Han family. Among them, Julu Taishou Fu Xie and Fu Nanrong are the most severe.
So Yuan Shao hated it deeply.
Then, in order to increase his strength, he coveted Jizhou and wanted to seize the control of Jizhou from Han Fu, so he prepared to win over many important people under Han Fu.
Fu Xie entered Yuan Shao's eyes again. Yuan Shao thought that with Fu Xie's character, I was afraid that he would not be co-opted by him, and he would even sue Han Fu and cause an accident.
In the end, Yuan Shao's strategist Feng Ji Jian yƬ Yuan Shao attacked and killed Fu Xie to prevent future troubles.
In the eyes of Feng Ji and others, Fu Xie is an out-and-out royalist. This man is determined, and all difficulties are moved. If you ignore it for the time being, after Yuan Shao seizes Jizhou from Han Fu, sooner or later he will still have to face this nail, it is better to take advantage of his defenseless moment to kill him directly, and eliminate the factors that may cause changes in the future.
