The situation in Guanzhong naturally cannot be known only to Yuan Shao, and Liu Jian naturally knows the news.

After Liu Jian learned about this, the first thing he did was to quickly find Jia Xu, who was in charge of the school office, and asked him to send additional people to Jingzhou to investigate Yuan Shao's movements at any time.

But there are some things that don't need to be informed by Liu Jian in advance, and Jia Xu has already done everything in a predictive way.

He informed Liu Jian of the main information about all parts of the world at present, and the information in it was very detailed, even including the details of Dong Zhuo's battle with Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou, and the school government also tried to make every effort to return in detail.

Obviously, Jia Xu is indeed very capable and potential in this regard.

However, he also put forward one of his opinions to Liu Jian.

At present, although the progress of the school government is great, there are still too few elite personnel, Hebei has enough financial resources to cultivate talents, but it takes time to cultivate, and there are too few elite talents in management, and the high-level personnel around Jia Xu who can command and dispatch are stretched.

In response to the problem raised by Jia Xu, Liu Jian has already had a solution.

Before forming the school office, Liu Jian had asked his fellow disciple Guoyuan to organize a powerful investigation department.

Although the personnel of this department do not bear as many responsibilities as the school government, such as assassination and lurking, in terms of intelligence spying, the strength and quality of the team led by Guoyuan are indeed very high.

Therefore, Liu Jian decided to let Guoyuan's team join Jia Xu's school office to enhance the overall strength and quality of the school office.

Now, compared with Guanzhong, Liu Jian pays more attention to Yuan Shao's current actions.

The death of Liu Yan in Yizhou will definitely prompt Yuan Shao to make a move, depending on whether his action is to the north or west.

Because Jia Xu also sent many scholars to Yizhou to be stationed in Yizhou itself, and regularly sent news back to him.

"Now that Liu Yan is dead, the situation in Yizhou will inevitably be tilted towards Yuan Yi, and Liu Yan's sons are far inferior to their father in terms of prestige and ability."

"I hope that they can stir up any storms in Yizhou, I'm afraid it's impossible, and now I hope that they won't be completely wiped out by the Yuan family in Yizhou, and they will be able to leave a little bit of the endgame."

"That way, it's also easier for me to contact them in the future."

Jia Xu said regretfully: "In this way, we can only look at the destiny of heaven." ”

"General, Yuan Shao mobilized soldiers and horses from various counties in Jingzhou to prepare ordnance, and at the same time secretly mobilized people, mules and horses, and also concentrated the grain in the warehouses of each county to Nanjun, obviously, there is a large-scale operation."

"According to the old man's inference, Yuan Shao originally wanted to take a preemptive attitude and let the general enter Guanzhong first, but now, he has changed his mind."

"It's time for us to do it."

Liu Jianyan said: "This time the matter is important, you will also go with me, and Xun Yu will also go with me, you have to keep an eye on Jingzhou at any time, and watch what follow-up actions Yuan Shao has on his side. ”

Jia Xu asked, "General, when will we leave?" ”

"After Yuan Shao's action, we will raise troops."

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said strangely: "General, I just don't know if our ordnance, grain and grass, and soldiers have all been prepared?" ”

"Naturally, they are preparing everywhere, but the momentum is not so big."

"All the counties are following my instructions, secretly gathering the original reserve grain in the direction of Hanoi, and now the rebellion on the side of Sanhe is the most violent, Zhu Jun is seriously ill in bed and can't get up, Han Hao can't resist the rebels, and has repeatedly sent us for help."

"So concentrating some troops and food and grass on Sanhe at this time will not affect the vigilance of others, and I am using the means of breaking up the whole into parts."

"These things have been prepared as early as when I was in Xuzhou, Tian Feng and Fu Zhi prepared for me, you can rest assured."

After listening to this, Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh: "The general is really a resourceful person!" ”

……

……

A few days later, the news from Jingzhou quickly spread to Hebei.

Just as Jia Xu expected, Yuan Shao drove the army to the north, passed through Wuguan, and went straight to Luoyang.

Since the valve reading of Sizhou and the top rich in Guanzhong have reached a political consensus with Yuan Shao, these people are very welcoming to Yuan Shao's arrival in Sizhou.

Yuan Shao represented the interests of the old ministers and the old system of the covenant, and he and his subordinates defended the old traditional system in the world.

Those old lords and old tycoons have now lost a lot because of the New Deal, and have given up too much political benefits.

They really want to change all the systems to before the New Deal, which is still the original Han Dynasty, and all the resources are still for them to distribute.

The group represented by Yuan Shao is such a group, and Yuan Shao is still relatively supported in places like Sizhou and Guanzhong, where old brands gather.

In terms of reinforcements, Cai Mao, Huang Zu, Sun Jian and other soldiers divided into three routes, went directly north, and rushed into Sizhou first, and the troops pointed directly at Luoyang.

At the same time, Yuan Shao also sent people to the imperial court, saying that there were too many rebellions in Sizhou and Guanzhong at present, and as a Hanchen, he naturally could not sit idly by.

He raised troops this time to solve the national crisis, not for anything else.

But these words are just to deceive those ordinary people who don't understand politics, and if they are like a group of political veterans led by Liu Wei, then it is naturally not the same.

Dong Zhuo was seriously ill in Xiliang, and his soldiers were counterattacked by Han Sui, Ma Teng and other Liangzhou rebels and retreated to Ji County, which was already a headache for Liu Wei.

Now Yuan Shao suddenly sent troops and entered Sizhou again, which can be said to have caught Liu Wei off guard.

Logically speaking, Yuan Shao does have the ability to extinguish various rebellions in Sizhou.

But after extinguishing the local rebellion in Sizhou, will he continue to withdraw?

Luoyang was originally an important area where aristocratic and wealthy families used to gather, and it was also a very sensitive political place.

This is the very center of the world.

The five counties of Sizhou, once controlled by Yuan Shao, plus the wang clans of Nanyang County, in order to revive their original status and interests in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the wang clans in these two places will definitely support Yuan Shao's restoration of the old system.

This will pose a huge threat to Liu Wei's throne, and I am afraid that it will be in jeopardy.

Under such circumstances, Liu Wei did not have the time or energy to continue to suppress the Qingliushi clan in the imperial court.

Because as far as the political positions of Yang Biao, Wang Yun and others are concerned, although they have different interests with Yuan Shao, they are still on the same side in general.

Dong Zhuo is sick now, and he can't count on them, these people are the most powerful political group in the imperial court.

The only one who can compete with them is the Qingliu family, if the Qingliu party is extinguished again, once Yuan Shao enters Chang'an City and joins Yang Biao, then Liu Wei will be completely finished.

As soon as he thought of this, Liu Wei couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Now Dong Zhuo can't count on it, what he can count on is Qingliu in the court, and his mother He family.

Liu Wei stopped suppressing the Qingliu line, and at the same time began to delegate some official positions to the young talents of the Qingliu department, as his gesture of goodwill to the Qingliu department.

In addition, Liu Wei also asked his mother He, what should his mother do?

He meant that he should ask Da Changqiu Lu Qiang for advice.

Liu Wei really didn't want to hear the name of Lu Qiang.

Since the last time Liu Wei hinted at Lu Qiang, Lu Qiang has shrunk more consciously. He rarely appeared in the inner palace, just doing something within his own right, so as not to let the fire of Liu Wei's jealousy burn on him.

However, although Liu Wei is very disgusted with Lu Qiang, He Hou's feelings for Lu Qiang have always been very strong, and she has always regarded Lu Qiang as her elder, so she forcibly asked Liu Qiang to recognize Lu Qiang as his father-in-law.

At this juncture, Empress He thought that letting Liu Biao consult Lu Qiang and let Lu Qiang give Liu Bian ideas might be able to ease the relationship between the two of them.

But the problem is that He Hou made a wrong idea, Liu Wei never regarded Lu Qiang as a relative in his heart, he just regarded Lu Qiang as the lowest minion.

Asking Lu Qiang for advice this time was just a last resort.

However, the current emperor is not the same as he was back then, and he suppressed his contempt for Lu Qiang. I went to visit Lu Qiang in person and asked him how stable the situation should be today.

It stands to reason that as Da Changqiu, and at such an old age, in order to get a good ending, Lu Qiang should not meddle in politics, but he is an old minister after all, and he has deep feelings for Liu Bian, so Lu Qiang finally gave Liu Biao an answer.

One is to use Liu Jian and let him enter Sizhou to fight against Yuan Shao, and the other is to immediately abolish the policy of small money.

Logically speaking, these two suggestions are loyal to the king, but they both angered Liu Wei's rebellion.

From the moment Lu Qiang said these two opinions to Liu Biao, Liu Biao had already made up his mind not to let Lu Qiang live in this world.
