It is often said that there is no righteous war in the Spring and Autumn Period.

In fact, these three kingdoms are no different from the Spring and Autumn Period.

It's the same deceit, and it's the same intrigues. The princes used the name of the Son of Heaven to crusade and fight everywhere, and the so-called famous division was just an excuse for the strong. Even if he is like Cao Cao, he is no different from other princes, except that he occupies the name of the Son of Heaven.

Liu Chuang sighed softly, and he already knew what Yuan Tan was thinking.

Crusade against Tian Kai?

That's an excuse.

Tian Kai has not lived in Jinan for a year or two, when is it not good to crusade, but at this time?

If Yuan Tan really wants to eliminate Tian Kai, it will not be a difficult matter.

Even if Cao Cao is willing to send troops to rescue, I'm afraid Yuan Tan may not be afraid. After all, he still has Yuan Shao behind him, no matter how powerful Cao Cao is, he doesn't dare to risk the opposite purpose of Yuan Shao at this time, and send troops to rescue Tian Kai, who has nothing to do with him.

In this way, Yuan Tan's purpose of inviting Liu Chuang is obvious.

He wants to borrow Liu Chuang's name to stabilize the reputation of his eldest son.

Don't look at Yuan Shao's eyes, Liu Chuang is just a small prince. But he is the uncle of the Han Dynasty and the son of Liu Tao, and these two identities alone are enough to be scary. Yuan Tan wanted to use the name of Liu Chuang's uncle to show Yuan Shao his ability.

As early as the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang favored Zhao Wang Ruyi and intended to abolish the elder and younger.

Empress Lu invited Shangshan Sihao for Emperor Hui Liu Ying to force Liu Bang to change his mind.

Now, Yuan Tan probably used the same strategy as Empress Lu to invite Shangshan Sihao for Liu Ying.

Although Liu Chuang's fame is far inferior to Shangshan Sihao. But as a newly rising small prince, he can also reflect Yuan Tan's means.

"I'm afraid this idea won't be the one from the boss of my family."

Liu Chuang smiled slightly, closed his eyes and muttered for a moment, then suddenly said, "I thought." The person who can come up with this strategy must be Xin Zhongzhi. ”

Chen Jiao was stunned, "How can you see it?" ”

Liu Chuang said with a smile: "Xin commented on this old man, it is clear that he is throwing bricks and attracting jade, throwing out my piece of turning his head, and leading out the old man of my family."

With the temperament of the boss, I'm afraid he won't be willing to let me get involved in this matter of succession dispute. Moreover, he also knew very well that if I came forward this time. It is bound to turn against Cao Cao, and it will not benefit me. Therefore, the old man would never have come up with such a plan. ”

"Then why Xin Zhongzhi?"

Liu Chuang said: "As far as I know, Yuan Shao has many advisers, and Tian Feng is frustrated with two of them. Impartial; Xu Yu is Yuan Shaoyuan's old man, and he was a runner in his early years, and it is impossible for him to stand up and speak at this time. The only people who are really involved in the dispute over the establishment of the heir are Xin Ping Guo Tu and the four people who judge Feng Ji. Guo Tu may not have such an idea, he has to worry about whether it will anger my old man.

The trial and match is to support Yuan Shang. How can you give advice to Yuan Tan?

The rest is Xin Ping...... He has an old relationship with the elder of my family, and it will actually be of great benefit to me to let me come forward this time.

This kind of strategy. Thinking about it, it can only come from his handwriting. First, my involvement in this dispute over the succession can dilute the influence of my previous plot against Donglai County. Yuan Tan didn't think he would have a bad feeling for me because of this. In the future, I will be blindly embarrassed; Second, I had to stand up. Yuan Shaocai may support me. If I keep swaying at both ends of the snake and mouse, I'm afraid Yuan Shao will also be jealous of me. ”

Chen Jiao listened and smiled.

"It's best if Childe thinks like this, I think that Xin Comment will not really have malicious intentions."

Yes, but who of you will know that among the future Yuan Cao, it is indeed Cao Cao who has the last laugh......

Liu Chuang was honest and didn't want to stand up so early.

But now it seems that it is no longer up to him to make a choice.

As if he was going to pull up the banner of the Son of Heaven, Yuan Tan also set his sights on the brand of his Emperor Uncle of the Han Dynasty.

However, this kind of thing is good for everyone, and Liu Chuang doesn't mind, and the two sides take advantage of each other. It's just that he has to take into account that after he makes his position clear this time, Cao Cao will never be polite to him again, and it is very likely that he will regard him as a thorn in his side.

If it weren't for that, Liu Chuang really didn't want to jump out and make Cao Cao an enemy.

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

In August of the second year of Jian'an, the imperial city of Xudu.

Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty ascended the Yuxiu Terrace and had a bird's-eye view of the lotus pond in the imperial city, with a melancholy face.

Fu Shou stood behind him and couldn't help but ask softly, "Your Majesty, why are you so sullen?" ”

Emperor Han looked around and saw that there was no one, so he sighed and said: "Today, Taiwei Yang was imprisoned by Cao Cao, and there is still no news.

Although many people in the court opposed it and tried their best to rescue him, Cao Cao acted and really wanted to put the Taiwei to death, so that I could not be irritable. ”

When Fu Shou heard this, he couldn't help but feel sullen in his heart.

Yang Biao was arrested and imprisoned, which was really unexpected by everyone.

In February, Yuan Shu rebelled and established himself as emperor.

Yang Biao and Yuan Shu were related, so Cao Cao suspected that Yang Biao and Yuan Shu were colluding and had the intention of rebellion, so he sent someone to arrest him and put him in prison.

But in reality, it was clear to everyone that it was just an excuse.

Yang Biao was originally at odds with Cao Cao and belonged to a staunch royalist. Since moving the capital, Yang Biao has repeatedly built yì, and Cao Cao has returned to power to the Son of Heaven. But he didn't have real power in his hands, and Cao Cao ignored it at all. But even so, Cao Cao was very disgusted with him.

Previously, when Yang Biao was in the court, he joined forces with the old ministers of the court to persecute Cao Cao, forcing Cao Cao to finally have to reward Liu Chuang.

This also made Cao Cao even more disgusted with Yang Biao, always thinking of finding an opportunity to kill Yang Biao.

However, Yang Biao is an old minister after all, and the Hongnong Yang family is a famous family, even if Cao Cao wants to move him, he must have some concerns. Yuan Shu was called emperor, but he gave Cao Cao an excuse. Whoever let Yang Biao and Yuan Shu be relatives, Cao Cao naturally would not let Yang Biao go.

This matter, even Fu Wan and the others felt a headache.

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much, didn't Kong Wenju say it yesterday. Want to rescue Captain Yang? ”

"Zitong, you don't understand!" Liu Xie sighed and said depressedly: "Although Kong Rong is also a celebrity, he has no soldiers or generals in his hands, let alone any real power. If he wanted to save Yang Biao, I was afraid that even he would be implicated, so I felt even more worried, afraid of losing another old minister. ”

Yes, Liu Xie now. There is really no room for mistakes.

There are fewer and fewer old ministers of the Han family who fled with him all the way.

At the beginning of the year, Zhong Miao was appointed as a lieutenant, which was regarded as bowing to Cao Cao; Subsequently, Tai Situ Chun Yu Jia also because of old age. Say goodbye to the old and return to the hometown. This also makes there are fewer and fewer people available in Liu Xie's hands. Although Fu Wan and others are secretly recruiting talents for him, most of them are powerless and powerless Qingliu. With these people, how can they compete with Cao Cao? How can he return to the court?

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Xie felt extremely depressed in his heart.

He stood sullenly by the railing, looking at the lotus pond blooming under the Yuxiu stage, his eyes were full of loneliness.

"Hey, why is Dong Guiren here?"

That's when it happened. Suddenly, I heard a soft cry.

Liu Xie turned his head to look and saw a beautiful woman coming from a distance, walking in a hurry.

Since the Han Dynasty, the palace concubines have been set up in the fourteenth rank. In order to improve the management of the concubines of the three palaces and six courts.

However, after the Eastern Han Dynasty, the hierarchy of concubines was simplified, and in addition to the queen and nobles, only three categories were established: beauty, palace people, and women.

This Dong nobleman. The origin is not small.

Her father is the general Dong Cheng, and Dong Cheng. is also a relative of the Empress Dowager Dong.

After Liu Xie was born, his mother was killed, but fortunately he was protected by the Empress Dowager Dong, so he could be regarded as saving his life. It is precisely for this reason that Liu Xie is quite cordial to the Dong family. After ascending the throne, he married the daughter of Dong Cheng as a nobleman, and his status was only below Fu Shou.

And the age of this Dong nobleman is not much different from Fu Shou.

The two of them take good care of Liu Xie, and they are also the most trusted people in the palace.

Dong Guiren hurriedly walked up to the Yuxiu stage, first saluted Fu Shou, and then walked to Liu Xie's side with a smile, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." ”

"Nobleman, where does the joy come from?"

Dong Guiren saw that there were no outsiders around, so he took out a note from his sleeve.

"This father has just been sent by someone, please check it out."

Liu Xie opened the song, and after taking a look, his brows frowned, "How come I, the imperial uncle, want to make paper and compile books, and invite Kong Wenju to participate in the big move, but I don't know anything?" ”

"Come to think of it, I was detained in Sikong Mansion."

Dong Guiren said softly: "If this letter hadn't been sent to Kong Wenju by Uncle Liu Huang, I'm afraid even my father wouldn't know about it."

My father estimated that Uncle Liu Huang should have written other notes, but they did not appear on His Majesty's desk. The father was worried that His Majesty would be dissatisfied with Uncle Liu Huang because of this, so he ordered the concubine to send this letter. Presumably, Uncle Liu Huang has now gained a firm foothold in Beihai. ”

When Liu Xie heard this, his face suddenly showed a touch of joy.

He nodded again and again, "I'll just say, how can my imperial uncle be so rude?" ”

"Zitong, do you want me to ask Sikong tomorrow morning?"

Fu Shou thought for a while and said softly: "Your Majesty, you'd better not come forward in this matter." Since Dong Cheqi sent someone to deliver this letter, he must have been prepared. Tomorrow morning, Dong Che will ride them will inevitably take action, and when the time comes, His Majesty will only need to push the boat down the river and ask Cao Sikong...... Presumably, Cao Sikong didn't expect that Uncle Liu Huang would use this method, and he would inevitably feel flustered. ”

"Hmm!"

Liu Xie listened and nodded vigorously.

"What Zitong said is very true, then I will wait for tomorrow, and then see how Cao Sikong explains."

The mood, with the arrival of this letter, seemed to improve a lot at once.

The reason why Liu Xie was depressed was because the old ministers around him left one by one, and on the other hand, it was also because no one responded to the princes outside. It is said that there are many Han clan relatives who are princes outside, but no one stands up to uphold justice.

Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang, these are all close relatives.

But whether it is Liu Biao or Liu Zhang, there has been no movement so far, which also makes Liu Xie feel a little cold in his heart.

Perhaps, it's not that the clan is unwilling to come forward, but that the strength is insufficient?

Thinking of this, Liu Xie suddenly frowned, and asked softly, "Zitong, nobleman...... You try to inform the outside of the palace and let them inquire, is there still a talent in my clan today? Although Uncle Huang has a foothold in Beihai, after all, this strength is a little weak. ”

Fu Shou shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

However, Dong Guiren seemed to remember something, and said: "If you talk about the clan, the concubine body thinks of one person." ”

"Who?"

Dong Guiren said softly: "When the concubine went home to visit relatives last time, I happened to hear my father talking about a person.

This person's name is Liu Bei, and it is said that after King Jing of Zhongshan, he is quite brave, and he also has some soldiers and horses. Previously, he had occupied Xuzhou and was later expelled by Lü Bu...... But at that time, Uncle Liu Huang had not yet returned to his ancestors, so the concubines did not listen too carefully.

This person should also be regarded as a talent in the clan, but the concubine also heard that this Liu Bei seems to have a grudge with Uncle Liu Huang. ”

When Liu Xie heard this, he immediately showed an unhappy look.

"It's a personal grudge, presumably Uncle Huang won't take it too seriously.

By the way, where is this Liu Bei now? What kind of official position is worshipped? ”

"Well, the concubine doesn't know."

Fu Shou said on the side: "Dong Guiren said this Liu Bei, but the word Xuande? ”

"Ah, exactly."

"Zitong knows about this person?"

Fu Shou smiled bitterly: "Speaking of this person, His Majesty also has an impression.

Last year, Cao Sikong Jin was a pastor of Yuzhou and a general of Zhendong...... Xu didn't pay attention to it at the time, so he didn't remember this person. ”

Cao Cao promoted him as the pastor of Yuzhou, and worshiped General Zhendong?

When Liu Xie heard this, he was immediately angry.

"Could it be that this Liu Xuande has already surrendered to Cao Cao?"

Fu Shou and Dong Guiren looked at each other, shook their heads after a while, and said softly: "The concubine doesn't know much about this matter, but the concubine can make people investigate." ”

"No need to ask!"

Liu Xie gritted his teeth and said: "If it weren't for Cao Cao, how could Cao Cao promote him to Yuzhou pastor?" This person is definitely not from the clan, and I have no interest in this person, so I don't need to inquire about it anymore. By the way, Zitong turned around and tried to inform Zongzheng, so that he could get rid of King Jing of Zhongshan. ”

Fu Shou heard this and wanted to persuade him.

But Dong Guiren gently tugged her and said in Fu Shou's ear: "Sister, Your Majesty is angry, let's talk about this matter later." ”

Yes, there are too many things that have not been going well recently......

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

Liu Chuang would never have thought that his letter would have such a huge impact.

And even if he knew, he wouldn't care, because in front of him, there was a middle-aged man wearing a virtuous crown and a green robe.

Yuan Tan stood aside with a strange face.

And Xin Ping and the others laughed and didn't say anything.

The middle-aged man is handsome and extraordinary.

He looked at Liu Chuang with a calm face, and didn't say a word......

Xin Ping has already introduced Liu Chuang, this middle-aged man is Xun Chen.

Speaking of which, Liu Chuang is also a person who has gone through strong winds and waves, and he may not show the slightest fear if he kills a few people in and out of thousands of troops.

But in front of this middle-aged man, Liu Chuang actually became nervous.

This feeling is a little more nervous than when I first met Zheng Xuan, and I was even a little apprehensive in my heart.

He took a step forward and bowed, "Little nephew Liu Chuang, meet the boss." ”

Xun Chen glared at Xin Ping viciously, looking at Liu Chuang, who was almost the same height as him, but for some reason, his nose was sour, and two lines of tears were shed.

PS: I'm really sorry, it's still a little uncomfortable. This diarrhea once pulled, and some of them lost their state...... I don't feel like I'm in rhythm today, so the update in the early morning will be placed at noon tomorrow. Adjust it a little more......
