Guanzhong, Chang'an, although it has just entered autumn, has a great trend of autumn and coolness.

Outside Chang'an City, all over Guanzhong, there is a busy scene, everywhere is busy harvesting ripe wheat, on the golden field, farmers wearing white short-sleeved shirts, dotted in the meantime, very pleasing to the eye.

There is only one plot, and the situation is very different, not only are there many people, but there are also many horses, and there are more people who do not work than there are people who work.

However, among the people who worked, one was the current son Liu Bi, and the other was the now powerful chariot and cavalry general Lu Bu, and around them, Situ Cai Yong, Sikong Yang Biao, Taiwei Zhang Xi, and Tingwei Fa Yan were all on the list.

Looking at this posture, the courtiers who were not of the same level were not qualified to go down to the fields and wield a sickle with their own hands to harvest the golden wheat harvest. Even so, there are far more people working in this field than there are farmers everywhere else.

Among the people who don't work, there are many female dependents, headed by the Empress Dowager He, as well as the families of the important ministers of the court, Yingying Yanyan, which is spectacular.

"Your Majesty, my lords, when harvesting the wheat, you must turn the sickle diagonally downward, and do not use too much force, so as not to be unable to hold your hand and hurt your legs ......."

It was Cui Xiang who was one of the princes who were forcibly taken from Luoyang to Taiyuan by Lu Bu and others, who heard that Lu Bu had poisoned the Queen Mother and King Hongnong, and they were filled with righteous indignation, and gathered in front of the camp of the Bingzhou army, and were mercilessly captured by Lu Bu, and most of them were not redeemed, and they were forcibly taken to Taiyuan by him.

At the beginning, Cui Xiang, like everyone else, hated Lu Bu to the core, but when he arrived in Taiyuan and witnessed what Lu Bu did in Taiyuan, many people's hearts began to waver. It wasn't until Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, died in the chaos of Chang'an, and Lu Bu supported King Hongnong to ascend the throne, that everyone understood that they had misunderstood Lu Bu at the beginning, and he was not poisoning Empress Dowager He and King Hongnong, but entrusted with Li Dao and others to make a false snake, but secretly rescued Empress Dowager He and King Hongnong to Taiyuan.

Therefore, these Taixue students, after waking up, rushed to serve under Lu Bu, and Cui Xiang presented the "April Civil Order" written by his grandfather Cui Yu. It also showed his talent and interest in agriculture, and he was entrusted with important tasks by Lu Bu, and was nicknamed the captain of the agricultural school by Lu Bu's subordinates.

Now, Qiao Yu is appointed by Lu Bu as the big Si Nong, in charge of the world's finance and taxation. Cui Xiang is a subordinate official of Qiao Yu and is in charge of agriculture. First, it should be selected and bred. Farmland reclamation, water conservancy development, planting, farming implements, etc., are all under his jurisdiction.

This time, Lu Bu invited Liu Bian, the son of heaven, to experience farm work in person. Situ Cai Yong, Sikong Yang Biao, and Taiwei Zhang Xi led the hundred officials, so naturally they couldn't stand idly by. can only accompany helplessly, but in the hearts of many people, they are still very dissatisfied with Lu Bu's nonsense, and they attack him for this, but they have never broken off.

Cui Xiang demonstrated several times, and Liu Wei, the son of heaven, was eager to try, and was a little clumsy at first, but in the end, he was young, and he quickly mastered the trick of it, and it was very decent to do.

Lu Bu is also impatient, in the end, he is a military general, his arm strength is strong, and the heavy Fang Tian painting halberd is free in his hand, this small sickle, held in his hand, is as if he did not hold anything, the sickle in his hand falls, very cleanly.

On the other hand, Cai Yong, Yang Biao, Zhang Xi and others obviously can't keep up, they are old, they bend over and straighten up like this, just a moment of work, they are getting slower and slower, and soon they stand there for a long time to beat their waists, and the time for bending over to work is short, and they sigh with a wry smile to each other: "Old, old......"

The Son of Heaven Liu Wei sympathized with these old ministers, and said to them with a smile: "Cai Qing, Yang Qing, Zhang Qing, you are old, and it is enough to experience the experience, and go up to rest, but don't flash your old waist, that's not good." ”

With the will of the Son of Heaven Liu Bian, Cai Yong, Yang Biao, Zhang Xi and other old ministers immediately bowed down to listen to the order, got up one after another, and the guards standing next to them hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Liu Wei turned his head again to look at Lu Bu, the general of the cavalry who was only a little behind him, and said with a smile: "With Lu Qing's ability, it should be more than that." ”

Lu Bu laughed, raised the sickle in his hand, and replied: "Your Majesty is too modest, the minister is used to holding the long knife of Fang Tian's painting halberd, holding the sickle, the weight is too light, and he is very unaccustomed to it, and it is very rare not to be thrown off by His Majesty." ”

Liu Wei laughed, then turned his head to look around, and said with emotion: "It's only been such a while, I am already sore in my back and sweating profusely, how can I know the hard work of the people if I don't experience it myself." Lu Qing's proposal is very good, and he should also tell the state and county, and order the county to abide by the county order, and go to the countryside to experience the experience. ”

"Your Majesty is wise!" Lu Buzan said, "Hundreds of officials, scholars, the world, are ashamed of their hands, this wind has originated since ancient times, if it is not reversed, it is really harmful and useless in the world, just take the big Si Nong Qiao Yu, the right big Si Nong Cui Xiang as an example, although they also paid attention to the people's livelihood before, but because of their identity, they could not go deep into the people, and now they do it themselves, and they immediately show their extraordinary." ”

Cui Xiang did not lag behind at all, in fact, among the three, he did the most relaxed, and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, Weichen remembered what General Che Cai said to Zhutaixue students when he was in Taiyuan before, knowledge, if it cannot be combined with industry, agriculture, and commerce, it will be difficult to be grounded, and sooner or later it will be ossified and unusable.......

Speaking of this, Cui Xiang pointed to the yellow ears of wheat in front of him, and argued to the Son of Heaven Liu: "Your Majesty, please see, these ears of wheat, compared to the previous varieties, the ears are big and full, and Wechen has made a comparison, just like this, you can increase the yield by more than two percent, this is the good seed obtained by Wechen's former students, after carefully selecting and cultivating seeds, without these years of personal experience, how can Wechen know that the world is abundant, and the people are rich in food and clothing, and they can rely on the efforts of Wechen and other students, you can contribute a force." ”

After listening to Cui Xiang's narration, the Son of Heaven Liu Wei was greatly moved, and when he looked at the wheat ears in front of him, his eyes softened a lot, and he nodded again and again: "What Cui Qing said is very true, this truth, Cui Qing wants to talk more, so that hundreds of officials, scholars, and people in the world can understand......

At this moment, a rapid sound of horses' hooves came, and Liu Wei, the son of heaven, couldn't help but turn his head to look, forgetting what he was going to say later.

Lu Bu's face also became solemn, such a rapid sound of horses' hooves, such a galloping messenger, there should be something urgent happening.

After a short time, several horsemen came galloping, and immediately the knight galloped while galloping, and shouted loudly: "Eight hundred miles of urgency, eight hundred miles of urgency!" ”

The people who heard it immediately changed their colors, and they knew better than anyone what the eight-hundred-mile emergency report meant, and only the most urgent matters could use this highest-level transmission method.

Until the person who came turned over and dismounted, and ran to the chariot general Lu Bu and knelt on one knee, everyone had stopped their movements and looked at the person.

"Report, Hanoi 800 miles urgent!"

Lu Bu's face sank, and he ordered in a deep voice: "What's the matter, say!" ”

Without thinking about it and without any hesitation, the person replied: "Yuan Shao's army was defeated, the general Wen Chou was killed in battle, and Yuan Shao also died in Baimajin!" ”

As soon as the words fell, so many people present were silent, and they were so quiet that they could even hear the sound of the autumn wind blowing in their ears.

Yuan Shao is dead?

Different people, when they hear the news, their thoughts are all this, but their feelings are very different.

Liu Wei, the son of heaven, was very happy in his heart, because he remembered very well that when he and his mother were trapped in Luoyang, Yuan Shao gathered in Guandong Prefecture to raise troops, which was a good thing, but Yuan Shao later spread the word to the world, implying that he was not the blood of the first emperor, which was a great insult to him, and now when he heard that Yuan Shao was dead, his first reaction was, of course, happy.

It's just that he, as the Son of Heaven, now knows that ordinary joy and anger are not feasible, so his face is calm, and only the joy in his eyes can reveal what he thinks in his heart.

As for Cai Yong, Yang Biao, Zhang Xi and other courtiers, they were shocked, regretful, and puzzled.

Only Lu Bu was overjoyed and asked, "What, Yuan Shao...... He's dead? ”

Immediately, his face sank, and he asked: "How was Yuan Shao defeated, how he died, and what is the current situation in the Kanto region, do you have details?" ”

The visitor replied: "Yuan Cao confronted Juancheng and Xiaqiu, Yuan Shao divided the army into three routes, sent Zhang He and Wen Chou to lead the army to detour to the north and south of Juancheng, attacked Fan County, Wen Chou ambushed, and died in battle, Cao's army marched forward, forcing Yan Liang to retreat to Puyang, Yuan Shao retreated to Yecheng in panic, and was assassinated when crossing the river in Baimajin. ”

When the person came to narrate, Lu Bu automatically appeared in his mind the map of the confrontation between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's army have been facing each other for a long time, how the situation develops, if Lu Bu himself leads the army, and how to break the deadlock, has always been the focus of Lu Bu and Jia Xu and others.

It's just that in Lu Bu's imagination, he is not confined to a strong attack all the way, but from Wei County and Bohai County, the head and tail attack, the army is not entangled in the gains and losses of one city and one place, but where Cao Cao is, where is the ultimate goal of the army.

Of course, now that the Cao Yuan duel has an ending, these deductions are naturally just deductions.

At the same time, what aroused Lu Bu's vigilance was the death of Yuan Shao, who was assassinated in Baimajin, because of this, Lu Bu is now basically convinced that under Cao Cao's account, Guo Jia is the mastermind behind the planning and implementation of these assassinations, there was Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai, who was assassinated in the school palace under Qi Guoji, and now there is Yuan Shao, who was assassinated in Baimajin after the defeat, and the two assassinations played an extremely key role in promoting the development of Cao Cao's power.

Lu Bu took a deep breath, put these messy thoughts behind him, and asked a few more questions, that is, the way to play is to go down and rest, turn to the Son of Heaven Liu Bian, and solemnly say: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are in a big battle, the victory and defeat have been divided, Yuan Shao is dead, and now, there are two important things that must be done as soon as possible."
