In May, Cao Cao worshiped Cao Ren as Henan Yin, and appointed Xiahou Yuan as the Taishou of Taishan County.

Previously, Cao Cao appointed Cao Ren as the Taishan County Guard, mainly in the hope that Cao Ren and Zang Ba would join forces and prepare to seize the Beihai Kingdom.

It's just that he didn't expect Liu Chuang to make a big move, abandon the second county of Donglai in Beihai, replace it with a desolate Liaoxi, and give Beihai to Yuan Shao. To deal with Liu Chuang, Cao Ren is enough. But if the opponent is replaced by Yuan Shao, Cao Ren is slightly weaker and may not be an opponent, so Cao Cao replaced Xiahou Yuan to go, just because Xiahou Yuan will show tougher means than Cao Ren at some times.

Of course, Xiahou Yuan let Liu Chuang go in Yingchuan County, even if this matter had little to do with him, but after all, it happened under the rule of Yingchuan County.

Of course, Cao Cao wanted to punish Xiahou Yuan.

It's just that Taishan County and Yingchuan County are higher and which is lower, and it can't be said clearly for a while.

However, with Xiahou Yuan stationed on his flank, Cao Cao would obviously be more at ease. At the same time, Cao Ren was transferred to Luoyang, which also meant to appease Guanzhong. At the same time, Cao Cao sent people to strengthen the guard of the eight passes in Luoyang to prevent Liu Chuang's incident from happening again.

To be honest, the reason why Liu Chuang was able to escape from Xu Du was also a blessing.

The straight-line distance from Changshe to Hugao Pass was only more than 200 miles, and Cao Cao sent troops to Hanoi, and Heluo's troops were empty, so Liu Chuang was able to succeed.

It's just that now, if Liu Chuang is allowed to break through the five levels again, it is estimated that there will be more luck and less luck!

While Cao Cao was actively preparing for war, Yuan Shao also began to fight against Xu Du's subordinates......

deceived Beihai Donglai from Liu Chuang...... Well, at least in Yuan Shao's opinion, he can get the two counties of Beihai and Donglai. And it didn't cost much. It's definitely a big advantage. After getting the North Sea Country. Yuan Shao also took advantage of the situation to get the team left by Liu Chuang.

For example, Liu Zheng, such as Wang Xiu, did not migrate with Liu Chuang for various reasons.

In addition, there was also Cen Bi, the general that Liu Chuang had dug up from Yuan Tan's subordinates, who was also worried about the bitter cold in Liaoxi and was not very adaptable, so he sent someone to contact Yuan Shang. took refuge in Yuan Shang. Yuan Shang knew that this person had followed Liu Chuang to attack Banyang, so he naturally attached great importance to him.

transferred Cen Bi back to Yecheng from Beihai, and recommended it to Yuan Shao to worship Liyang's order.

However, what really caught Yuan Shao's attention was Zhang Xiu in Yucheng.

He sent people to Nanyang to try to say that Zhang Xiu would be lowered, and then the inside and outside should be combined to attack Cao Cao.

In Yuan Shao's opinion, he sent someone to recruit Zhang Xiu. It's to give Zhang embroidered face...... With his background in the family of the fourth and third dukes, he is located in Hebei. Sitting in four states and holding the general's seal, can Zhang Xiu still obediently take refuge in him? Therefore, Yuan Shao's envoy also looked extremely arrogant after arriving in the city.

Initially, Zhang Xiu did have the intention to surrender to Yuan Shao.

It's a pity that Cao Cao sent Zhong Xuan as an envoy and visited Jia Xu first.

And Jia Xu has long been obedient to Cao Cao. He and Zhong Xuan are also old acquaintances, whether he was a Lang official in the court in the early years, or later followed Dong Zhuo to Luoyang, Jia Xu and Zhong Xuan had several dealings, which also made the two more easy-going when talking.

After agreeing to surrender to Cao Cao, Jia Xu immediately prevented Zhang Xiu from surrendering to Yuan Shao and beheaded Yuan Shao's envoy on the spot.

Zhang Xiu finally changed his mind under Jia Xu's persuasion and officially asked Cao Cao to surrender.

Subsequently, Cao Cao asked Zhang Xiu to continue to sit in Nanyang, transferred Jia Xu to Xudu, worshiped Jinwu, and treated Jia Xu very favorably......

At this point, Cao Cao's rear has been completely calmed, and he can calm down and prepare for a decisive battle with Yuan Shao!

At this time, Yuan Shu was no longer able to support himself in Huainan, and as his men fell apart, Yuan Shu knew that the general trend was gone, so he began to contact Yuan Shao, hoping that Yuan Shao could rescue him. Yuan Shao hesitated for Yuan Shu's request for help, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

From Linyu to Guzhu City, about 50 miles.

Along the way, you can see the migrant station, which is intertwined, seemingly chaotic, but it is very orderly to make full use of the land.

"Uncle Huang, between Linyu and Guzhu City, there are about 10,000 immigrants.

Together with the original residents of Guzhu City, there are as many as 18,000 people. When he first landed, Mr. Zishan tried not to gather all the immigrants in one place, which could easily lead to conflicts between local residents and immigrants. So, by and large, we are relocating migrants on a one-to-one basis.

10,000 people were housed in Guzhu City.

The rest of the migrants were settled east of Linyu, between Xuanshui and Liugu River.

Among them, especially the upper reaches of the Liugu River, because it is very close to the white wolf Xianbei, so in early April, the construction of the white wolf fort was started to resist the attack of the white wolf Xianbei. It's just that the west of Liaoning is bitterly cold, and the land is frozen all year round, so the progress of the White Wolf Fort is slow, and it is expected to be completed in June. As long as the White Wolf Fort is completed, there is no need to worry about the rebellion of the White Wolf Xianbei in the north, and it can develop with peace of mind in the future. ”

The person who accompanied Liu Chuang to Guzhu City was named Wang Jing, a native of Qinghe, Jizhou, with the name Yanwei, and Zhuge Liang the same age.

In fact, he had a relationship with Liu Chuang before.

When Liu Chuang visited Zheng Xuan in Gaomi for the first time, it was Wang Jing who came forward to receive him.

After that, Wang Jing continued to study with Zheng Xuan until the Great Migration, when Zheng Xuan was worried about the shortage of manpower in Gaomi, so he sent Wang Jing to assist.

After coming to Liaoxi, Wang Jing became Buqi's deputy and was responsible for resettlement matters.

"Yanwei, the weather in western Liaoning is very different from that in the Central Plains.

After you go back, remember to remind Zishan that winter here comes very early, and the temperature is extremely cold, so you must prepare for wintering from now on. Those tents may not be able to withstand the cold winter, so they need to build houses. In addition, I also thought of some means to keep out the cold, and when the time comes, you can hand it over to Zishan and discuss it, and try your best to popularize it. In addition, warm clothes should also be prepared. You should go back to Zhongda and ask him to get in touch with the Su clan of Zhongshan Guo, and be sure to prepare a large amount of cloth before July......

There are many of us who come to Liaoning for the first time, and there will be a lot of discomfort.

And the cold is the top priority we have to face, as long as we can survive this year, after everyone adapts. It will definitely improve. ”

Wang Jing nodded again and again. means to make a note of it.

"Also. After this year's autumn harvest, the sorghum stalks remained.

These are all materials for wintering...... At the same time, people buy coal from other parts of Youzhou, which is also a material to withstand the cold winter. ”

The Great Migration does not mean that the transfer of people from Qingzhou to Liaoxi will be completed.

In fact, transfer and migration are only the first step; The next livelihood arrangements and adaptation to the environment are the real problems to be faced.

Liu Chuang's heart. More or less glad.

He invited Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing before, which was indeed a clever move.

Otherwise, but just not adapting to the water and soil, I'm afraid it will kill him...... However, this is only the beginning, and the real test is yet to come.

Pang De followed Liu Chuang along the way, enjoying the scenery along the way with great interest.

Liangzhou is also a bitter cold place.

So Pound didn't have anything to do with it, and rode on top of the horse. Look left and right. Liu Chuang has not arranged a task for him for the time being, but Pang De is not in a hurry. Because he knows it well. Liu Chuang will not reuse him. With the relationship between Liu Chuang and Ma Chao, he has become Liu Chuang's 'own person'. However, Liu Chuang is also new to Liaoxi, and he definitely needs a familiar process, and there will naturally be appointments at that time.

"Ling Ming, the west is cool and bitter cold, what crops are mostly planted?"

Pang De thought for a moment and said softly: "In general, there is no difference between it and Guanzhong, mainly corn grains.

However, in the first two years, a crop appeared in the Hehuang area, and although the yield was not very high, it was extremely cold-tolerant, and it was quite popular in Hehuang. Many herbivorous Qiang are made of this plant and wrapped in beans...... If the prince is interested, you can send someone to contact the eldest prince. ”

Grain!

is the biggest problem Liu Chuang is facing today.

Now, whenever he hears that there are crops that can be grown in bitter cold, he is intrigued.

Although sorghum is suitable for western Liaoning, it is far from enough just sorghum...... In fact, what Liu Chuang hopes to get most is sweet potato seeds. Unfortunately, during the Eastern Han Dynasty, sweet potatoes were limited to the American continent and had not yet been introduced to Asia. Otherwise, he would have to try to find the plant. Thinking of sweet potatoes, a thought suddenly flashed through Liu Chuang's mind...... I remember that when I was chatting with people in my previous life, someone mentioned the origin of corn. It seems that in the Eastern Han Dynasty, corn seems to have appeared in Southeast Asia.

In later generations, these products were once abundant in Northeast China......

When Liu Chuang thought of this, he couldn't help but move his thoughts.

He is still far from Southeast Asia, but he can be found through Guò Jiaozhou Shixie.

Moreover, as early as the Han Dynasty, Roman merchants appeared in the Jiaozhou area, cabbage in Europe, cotton in India......

Liu Chuang suddenly became excited, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

If cotton can be introduced, then the bitter cold of western Liaoning is not a cause for concern.

"Ling Ming, do you know what kind of crop is called?"

Pang De was stunned for a moment, showing a look of distress, and replied for a long time: "I really don't remember clearly, I used to visit the wolf qiang with the eldest prince, and the leader of the wolf qiang used this kind of food to entertain us, it seems to be called barley grain, I really can't remember." ”

"Barley grain?"

"Oh, that's right, it's barley grain!"

Liu Chuang took a deep breath, thought about it, turned his head to Wang Jing and said, "Yanwei, write down this name, and remember to remind me of this matter after returning to Linyu." ”

Wang Jing was on the horse, and hurriedly bowed down.

In this way, everyone walked and talked, and before they knew it, they came to Lonely Bamboo City.

Zheng Ren, Wei Yue, Xu Yi and others went out of the city to greet them.

Seeing Zheng Ren, Liu Chuang was extremely enthusiastic, and after first inquiring about the physical condition of Zheng Xuan and others, he couldn't wait to let Zheng Ren lead the way and lead him to meet Zheng Xuan.

Liu Chuang's feelings for Zheng Xuan are not false.

Maybe at the beginning, he had the idea of using Zheng Xuan, but later Zheng Xuan helped Liu Chuang wholeheartedly, and even ran for him to build momentum. There is not much utilitarianism in it, it is completely with the idea that the elders love the younger generations. This also made Liu Chuang extremely moved, and gradually, his feelings for Zheng Xuan changed. After he was reborn, he had no relatives except Liu Yong Guan Hai.

Zheng Xuan, just like his father, appeared beside Liu Chuang.

He doesn't have Liu Yong's bravery, and he can't give Liu Chuang any power.

But from beginning to end, Zheng Xuan was protecting Liu Chuang in his way, and even abandoned his home to follow Liu Chuang for Liu Chuang's sake. Thousands of miles away came to the bitter cold land of western Liaoning. This affection alone. is enough for Liu Chuang to regard Zheng Xuan as his father. 's feelings for Zheng Xuan are also extraordinarily sincere.

Wei Yue and the others could also understand Liu Chuang's behavior, and followed Liu Chuang to the door of the Zheng Mansion together.

The Zheng Mansion of Guzhu City is the property that Elfang originally purchased in Guzhu City, located next to Nanshan Academy......

However, Nanshan Academy has not yet been fully completed. It is in the midst of emergency construction.

Liu Chuang has decided to open Nanshan Academy in Guzhu City, and to build this Nanshan Academy into the largest academy in the world.

For this reason, Liu Chuang put a lot of effort into letting Elfang open up a piece of land in Guzhu City.

In the future, this academy will uphold the purpose of teaching without class, and open disciplines such as classics of scripture and history, agriculture, arithmetic, astronomy, geography, and military affairs, so as to cultivate scholars from all over the world. It's just that. This idea is still just a concept. If we want to popularize it, we need to pay more money, energy, and time. The compilation of the Siku Quanshu is a beginning. After the compilation of the Siku Quanshu was completed, the reputation of Nanshan Academy was completely launched, which was the beginning of Liu Chuang's implementation of all the plans. However, this plan, Liu Chuang still needs to discuss with Zheng Xuan.

In fact, Zheng Xuan himself also promotes the purpose of education without class.

Previously, he had a wide range of disciples, and when he was teaching in Buqishan, he had thousands of disciples, which is the embodiment of this kind of thinking.

Liu Chuang believed that when he told Zheng Xuan about the idea, Zheng Xuan would definitely support it. However, there will be no less resistance to him...... Those who are from prestigious families regard family learning as inheritance. If you know that Liu Chuang implements the educational concept of education without class, I am afraid that many people will quit. It doesn't matter, after the compilation of the Siku Quanshu is completed, even if they want to quit, it will be fine.

Zheng Xuan's house, there are guests.

Knowing that Liu Chuang was coming, Zheng Xuan was also very happy, and hurriedly asked people to invite Liu Chuang into the living room.

In the living room, there were several people.

Guan Ning and Huang Chengyan are there, and there is also a young man, who looks like he is in his early twenties, although he is dressed in a bearded suit, he is wearing a scarf, handsome and heroic. The young man had been looking at Liu Chuang with curiosity since Liu Chuang came in.

"Meng Yan made a dangerous move this time, although he returned safely, but it was too risky."

Seeing Liu Chuang, Zheng Xuan couldn't help but reprimand.

However, the meaning of reproach in his words is far less than the meaning of concern.

"You are also lucky, it coincides with the edict of the Son of Heaven, which makes Cao Cao a little jealous. And there are Zhong Xuan, Xun Yu and others secretly helping each other, otherwise even if you have ten lives, it will be difficult for you to survive...... You are no longer rootless, you can do whatever you want. You are now the emperor uncle of the Han Dynasty, and you are even more lucky in the Han family. If you have an accident, won't it make your relatives hurt and your enemies happy? Why are you so reckless? ”

Liu Chuang stood with his hands down and listened to Zheng Xuan's teachings silently.

Guan Ning couldn't stand it on the side, and couldn't help but speak: "Kang Chenggong, Uncle Huang's adventure this time is also a last resort.

To be honest, if he hadn't gone to Xudu this time, Beihai Kingdom might not have been able to support Yuan Shao to receive ...... Cao Cao is a traitor. He attacked Xuzhou last year, and he had the intention of calculating the emperor's uncle. Uncle Huang also went to Xudu for the 500,000 people of Beihai Kingdom.

Moreover, he did well in Xudu, and was summoned by the Son of Heaven, and even blessed the Son of Heaven to perform the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens and worshiping the Taimiao.

Xu Tian fought around the siege, fought hard for the two bears, and earned face for the Son of Heaven, how can it be said to be reckless? Change someone, see if he can escape from Xu Du! In my opinion, Uncle Huang went to Xudu this time and went very well. At least in some ways, he has won the approval of the Son of Heaven, and he can be regarded as standing firm. ”

Guan Ning is a rebellious person.

If Liu Chuang hadn't used papermaking to make books to win him over at the beginning, he might not have taken Liu Chuang in his eyes.

If it is said that he helped Liu Chuang before, it was because of Zheng Xuan's face and Liu Tao's reputation. So this time he came to Liaoxi with Zheng Xuan because of his good impression of Liu Chuang. Guan Ning's idea is very simple, he is obsessed with learning! A person who can promote knowledge is a good person.

Liu Chuang was on the side and couldn't help laughing.

saw Zheng Xuan's eyes glaring, and the smile on his face disappeared in fright......

"Meng Yan, let me introduce you."

Because of Guan Ning's opening, Zheng Xuan naturally did not continue to reprimand Liu Chuang.

After all, Liu Chuang's current identity is not only his nephew, but also the uncle of the Han Emperor. Moreover, Zheng Xuan didn't mean to blame Liu Chuang. The reason why he reprimanded Liu Chuang was also because Liu Chuang was too adventurous, so he couldn't help it and wanted to teach Liu Chuang a few lessons.

"This Yan Rou Yan Bozheng!"

Zheng Xuan pointed to the young man beside him and said with a smile: "I think you have already heard his name!" Previously, when Zifang was in Lonely Bamboo City, Bo Zheng had also instructed him many times. During this time, Bo Zheng happened to be listening to me explain the scriptures, and when he heard that you had returned, he waited here. ”

When Liu Chuang heard this, he was stunned.

looked up at Yan Rou, but saw Yan Rou smiling at him.

Liu Chuang immediately understood, I am afraid that this Yan Rou has already guessed that he will come to visit.

I couldn't help it, and I smiled.

Liu Chuang arched his hand at Yan Rou and said with a slight salute: "When I came to Linyu yesterday, I heard Zifang say that Bo Zheng took a lot of care of him, and his insight was extraordinary. I came in a hurry today, on the one hand, to visit my father, so that his old man would not worry about me; On the other hand, I also want to meet Bozheng and listen to Bozheng's opinions. After that, I will be based in Liaodong, and I need the help of sages like Bozheng. ”

Now that everyone knows it, there is no need to hide it.

Liu Chuang got straight to the point, which made Yan Rou stunned for a moment, and then laughed too......

"Meng Yan, you're an anxious person."

Zheng Xuan shook his head and couldn't help but smile: "I know that you are busy with affairs now, and I also know that you are under a lot of pressure at the moment.

However, there is no rush for a while. Before you talk to Bozheng, I have one more thing to tell you. Cheng Yan came to propose marriage some time ago and wanted to marry his daughter to Kong Ming. The second lady said, it's up to you to decide at this time...... You are now Brother Kong Ming, as the saying goes, the eldest brother is the father, I don't know what you think? (To be continued......)
