Chapter 592: Strangling the New Seedlings
On this expedition, Dong Zhuo did not bring his henchman Li Ru, after all, the current Li Ru needs to help Dong Zhuo inspect the situation in the DPRK.
Although the Son of Heaven was on the same front as Dong Zhuo in terms of advancing Xiliang, many of the courtiers were still opposed.
In this way, it is better to let Li Ru stay in the DPRK and monitor the situation in the DPRK, Dong Zhuo is more at ease.
But what Dong Zhuo didn't expect was that there was nothing serious about the court, and Liu Jian actually had an accident again.
This guy actually took Xuzhou from Tao Qian's hands, and it is said that it is quite justifiable.
Li Ru sent someone to inform Dong Zhuo of this matter.
Dong Zhuo didn't dare to slack off, and immediately looked for the messenger in detail about this matter.
Liu Jiannai is Dong Zhuo's biggest competitor, and Li Ru naturally knows it, so Li Ru didn't dare to be perfunctory about what Liu Jian did in Xuzhou, but asked people to figure it out carefully before reporting to Dong Zhuo.
Dong Zhuo listened to the messenger finish the matter, and then thought carefully for a while, and finally sighed, feeling that Liu Jian's ability was really above himself.
That Tao Qian is also a famous family in Danyang County, and in the end, he was actually made like this by Liu Jian and Liu Bei brothers, not to mention the ruined reputation, and the foundation of Xuzhou has also become Liu's.
Moreover, it is said that the people of Xuzhou and the local wealthy families have great respect for Liu Jian and Liu Bei, and very much expect them to take over Xuzhou, but they hate Tao Qian, who has ruled them for many years.
What is this called, this is called ability?
It's a skill!
If Dong Zhuo also had such ability, the matter in Liangzhou would not have been delayed until today.
Dong Zhuo admits that he does have a certain level, but he is ...... compared to Liu Jian Alas! There's no comparison.
This is Dong Zhuo's biggest advantage, he will not blindly believe that he is noble, he can correctly see the advantages and disadvantages of himself and others.
This point is stronger than Yuan Shao.
"Hey, if the old man can have such a means as Liu Deran, I am afraid that the matter in Liangzhou will not be delayed until today."
Dong Zhuo said with a slow sigh.
At this time, Liu Ai, who came here with Dong Zhuo on the side, suddenly spoke.
"Xiangguo, according to the foolish opinion of his subordinates, although Liu Jian pacified the southeast, it does not mean that Xiangguo lost to Liu Jian in what he did in Xiliang."
"After all, Xuzhou and Xiliang are not the same boundary."
"This place is even more difficult than pacifying three Xuzhou."
"Looking at the entire Han Dynasty, that is, Xiangguo can do such a big situation for the imperial court in Liangzhou."
"If Liu Deran comes to Liangzhou, he may not be able to do better than Xiangguo!"
Although Liu Ai's words were a little flattering, they were not completely unreasonable, and the most important thing was that his words made Dong Zhuo feel very comfortable.
I feel better.
"Hey, it's just that now, Liu Jian asked for Xuzhou Mu for that Liu Bei."
"In Yiqing's opinion, how should this matter be good? Should the old man or not? ”
Liu Ai said very seriously: "According to the subordinates, Xiangguo should be with Liu Bei Xuzhou!" ”
"What?"
Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Ai very puzzled: "Giving Xuzhou to that Liu Bei, didn't it strengthen Liu Jian's power out of thin air?" In this way, won't you be in trouble with the old man in the future? ”
Liu Ai said very respectfully: "Xiangguo, you think, the land of Xuzhou is bordering Jiangdong, and at the same time close to Huainan, Xiangguo promised Liu Bei, which is equivalent to making Liu Jian's forces border with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's forces from now on, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and Liu Jian are finally adjacent, is this a good thing or a bad thing for Xiangguo?" ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, his spirits couldn't help but perk.
"Yes! Oh, yes! Let Liu Jian, Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao be next to each other, and they were too far away from each other. ”
"Now, if they become neighbors and fight against each other, it will indeed be the most beneficial to the old man."
Liu Ai continued: "Moreover, if Xiangguo agrees to Liu Jian's request, Liu Jian may not be able to get his wish. ”
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he was stunned at first.
Immediately, he understood, and nodded abruptly.
……
……
Dong Zhuo agreed to Liu Jianbiao's Liu Bei's matter of being the pastor of Xuzhou, and the Prime Minister's Mansion Dongcao quickly drafted an official document for his appointment and delivered it to Shangshutai, and at the same time presented the draft of the Prime Minister's Mansion to the Son of Heaven.
Logically speaking, the Prime Minister's Mansion Dongcao has already drawn up a letter of appointment, and logically speaking, it should be issued directly.
However, Shang Shutai saw that the documents were pressed, and he delayed the formal appointment.
Of course, under normal circumstances, Shang Shutai would not do such a thing.
The key issue is still on the emperor's side.
The emperor was unwilling.
This time, Liu Wei didn't discuss with anyone, he just let Shang Shutai press the official document and didn't send it for a long time.
In Liu Wei's view, Liu Jian has become the general of Fuyuan, Liu Bei and Liu Yu are both state ministers, and now Liu Jian is not satisfied, and he actually wants Liu Bei to be in charge of Xuzhou alone, which is simply contempt for himself as an emperor!
What if Dong Zhuo agrees? If his emperor didn't agree, it would be difficult to do it!
In short, the emperor is pressing on this matter.
Da Changqiu Lu Qiang, Wuguan Zhonglang General Liu Biao, Taifu Xun You, Shooting Captain Ma Riyan and other Qingliu took turns to play, showing Liu Bei's exploits in the southeast, and asked Shangshutai to complete the process as soon as possible and appoint Liu Bei as Xuzhou Mu.
But Liu Wei just kept silent.
He didn't say he didn't agree, he just coped with it.
Okay, you can, let him be the pastor of Xuzhou!
Let him wait slowly.
Liu Wei changed his routine this time, he no longer argued with the Qingliu courtiers on matters in the southeast, he just waited and watched the changes, and kept silent.
I don't say I agree, I don't say I don't agree!
I'm just dragging!
I have to say that Liu Bian's trick is indeed very good.
The mentality of the Qingliu scholars he dragged was a little broken.
I'm not afraid that the emperor is unreasonable, I'm afraid that the emperor is a hob meat.
It's really uncomfortable that these three sticks can't hit a fart.
Moreover, now the life of the Qingliu Shi clan led by Xun You, Ma Riyan, Liu Biao, etc., is not very good.
After Dong Zhuo left the court, the old system of courtiers and ministers headed by Wang Yun, Yang Biao and other ministers began to launch a fierce attack on these newly formed alliances.
After all, after Dong Zhuo was stationed in the imperial court, all the ministers and scholars in the capital were monolithic, and they all obeyed the orders of the three princes headed by Yang Biao and others, and secretly opposed Dong Zhuo.
However, with the alliance of Xun You, Ma Riyan, Liu Biao and others, in the imperial court, the forces built by the Qingliu clan represented by the Yingchuan Xun clan and the Guanxi Ma clan were formed, and the original valve reading gate and Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army forces formed a three-legged trend in the court.
Dong Zhuo doesn't care about this, anyway, he is against him!
One force, both forces are directed against the Xiliang people.
But Yang Biao, Chun Yujia and others have some glass hearts.
Isn't this the anti-nest?
Self-contained?
Don't take us old-timers seriously!
Pack, a must!
I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival, a reunion, harmony and beauty, and joy!
