Chapter 251: Guan's knife can't tolerate traitors and thieves
Zhang Miao shook his head: "That's not the case! invited Meng De to enter Chang'an, just to confront Yuan Shao and balance Liu Bei, Meng De still had to return to Yuzhou to be the pastor of Yuzhou. β
"Meng De is now a Yuzhou pastor, a general of Zhengdong, and a marquis of Xu, so it is not appropriate to be promoted again."
Zhang Miao's idea, Chen Gong didn't agree with it very much.
The idea of not promoting Cao Cao, but letting Cao Cao fight against Yuan Shao and balance Liu Bei, is too naΓ―ve.
"Meng Zhuo, there is no benefit, how can Cao Mengde agree?" Chen Gong shook his head and said, "It's better to ask Your Majesty to give Liu Bei an edict and let him crusade against Yuan Shao." β
"Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses are strong, even if Liu Bei's crusade against Yuan Shao is successful, his soldiers and horses will suffer a lot."
"It is the best policy for us to sit firmly in Chang'an and sit and watch Liu Bei and Yuan Shao fight."
Zhang Miao disagreed with Chen Gong's judgment and said: "Gongtai, Liu Bei has already sent Guan Yusheng to capture Yuan Shu, if Liu Bei is allowed to defeat Yuan Shao again, Liu Bei's merits will be above Wen Hou and you and me." β
"Liu Bei's meritorious work is high, and it will be difficult to check and balance."
"If you want to fight Yuan Shao, you must be personally recruited by the Son of Heaven, and Liu Bei will go out with the army, so that the credit for destroying Yuan Shao can be attributed to the Son of Heaven without Liu Bei's credit being too great."
"And the Son of Heaven personally recruited, and the generals under his command couldn't only be Liu Bei."
"I introduced Meng De into Beijing to divide the soldiers and horses into four routes when the Son of Heaven personally conquered Yuan Shao."
"One route was led by Wen Hou to go out and merge with the state, one route was led by Ziyuan to attack Wei County, one route was led by Meng Detong to attack Qinghe, one route was led by Liu Bei to attack Bohai, and all four routes marched at the same time."
"Meng De and Liu Bei divided Yuan Shao's troops, Ziyuan's troops surrounded Yecheng, and Wen Hou quickly broke through Ma Teng Han and then went out of the pot and entered Wei County, and joined Ziyuan."
"In this way, the merit of capturing Yuan Shao in this life will not be obtained by Meng De and Liu Bei."
"The Son of Heaven has such a great achievement, who in the world dares to disobey?"
"And you and I, as the arrangers, will definitely become the most trusted auxiliary minister of the Son of Heaven, and the marquis will enter history, this life is enough!"
Zhang Miao doesn't have much ambition, he just wants to be an auxiliary minister who will leave a name in history.
Therefore.
Establishing a prestige for Liu Xie is Zhang Miao's first choice.
Only Liu Xie's imperial prestige can deter the ministers from being small, and Zhang Miao's position will not be shaken.
Under one man, above ten thousand.
Leave a name in history, and it will last forever.
This is full of temptation for Zhang Miao.
Looking at the high-spirited Zhang Miao, Chen Gong shook his head secretly.
Although Zhang Miao's idea is good, he underestimates Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and the wise people in the world.
Chen Gong did not continue to dissuade.
Talking too much now will only arouse Zhang Miao's disgust.
Zhang Miao thought that he had persuaded Chen Gong, so he sent his brother Zhang Chao to Xu County and invited Cao Cao to Chang'an.
Next.
Guan Yu escorted Yuan Shu to Chang'an City.
Liu Xieqin led the ministers to greet him outside the palace.
"Guan Junhou, what you promised is to save your father's life." Yuan Shu did not forget to remind Guan Yu: "If you break your promise, my father will fight to the death, and you will lose both." β
Guan Yu was a little disgusted by Yuan Shu's tone.
Why did Lu Zhi enter Chang'an overnight, Guan Yu has never forgotten it!
If it weren't for Zheng Ping's layout, Guan Yu wouldn't have ruined Liu Bei's big thing for the sake of momentary anger, and he would have cut Yuan Shu on the road as early as possible, where would he still be able to tolerate Yuan Shu being presumptuous by his side?
Today's Guan Yu is no longer the stunned young man who pulls out his knife when he sees injustice, even if he wants to kill Yuan Shu, Guan Yu has to hold back his emotions at this time and take care of the overall situation.
"Mr. Xianmou, I hope what you say is true."
"Otherwise, Guan would really be tempted to draw a knife."
Guan Yu secretly adjusted his emotions.
Before asking Guan Yu to escort Yuan Shu into Chang'an, Zheng Ping assured Guan Yu: Yuan Shu will not survive this year!
"Yuan Gong rest assured, Guan Mou has always put faith and righteousness first." Guan Yu's face was cold, and the disgust in Danfeng's eyes was also suppressed at this moment.
Yuan Shu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, coming to Chang'an was not what Yuan Shu wanted, if he came to Chang'an, he would die, and he would inevitably die.
"Minister, Hanshou Pavilion Marquis Guan Yu, has captured the puppet Jiujiang Duke Yuan Shu, and today he will dedicate it to His Majesty!" When Guan Yu saw Liu Xie, he stepped forward and bowed.
Liu Xie saw that Guan Yu was brave and extraordinary, no less than Lu Bu, and he was also happy in his heart: "The Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion has a heart, please get up quickly!" β
Because of Lu Zhi's dying entrustment, Liu Xie is quite fond of Guan Yu.
After greeting for a while, Liu Xie asked, "The Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion has made such a great contribution, and he must not be rewarded." I intend to make the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion Guangluxun and take charge of the palace guards. β
As soon as this remark came out.
Whether it was Guan Yu or the ministers of the DPRK and the central government, Wenwu, they were all taken aback.
Guan Yu hurriedly refused: "Minister, thank Your Majesty for your kindness!" However, the minister came from a humble background, did not know the royal etiquette, and often had grievances with others, so it was difficult for him to be qualified for the post of Guangluxun. β
"The minister's long-cherished wish is to fulfill the unfulfilled wish of Master Lu, command a hundred battles and strong soldiers, and level the thieves in the world for the Han Dynasty."
Zhang Miao, who was startled on the side, also hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Guan Junhou is good at conquest, and he is the general who will conquer the puppet emperor in the future." If he is allowed to serve as Guangluxun, it will be overkill. β
Liu Xie originally thought about it temporarily, but at this time, seeing Guan Yu's refusal, Zhang Miao also disagreed, so he gave up this idea.
Zhang Miao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, if Guan Yu was made Guangluxun, he would have to enter and leave the palace under Guan Yu's nose in the future, which would make Zhang Miao feel restricted.
What's more, Guan Yu became Guangluxun, and he would be with Liu Xie almost every day, and the relationship between his close ministers would be far better than Zhang Miao's!
In case Liu Xie said that he leaked his mouth, let Guan Yu know that someone in Chang'an intentionally or unintentionally established Liu Bei's threat theory in front of the Son of Heaven, and with Guan Yu's temperament, he would inevitably pick up a knife and cut people.
At this moment, Yuan Shu interjected: "What are you fighting for, Tao Qian was killed by Cao Cao, and Guan Yu was jointly promoted by Xuzhou people as Xuzhou pastor, and temporarily led Xuzhou." β
"Now that Guan Yu has captured his father, this Xuzhou Mu should also deserve his name."
Zhang Miao and Chen Gong looked at Yuan Shu in amazement.
Guan Yu temporarily took over the affairs of Xuzhou Mu, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong both knew, and after the two discussed, they decided to pretend to be deaf and dumb, and did not tell Liu Xie.
Zhang Miao and Chen Gong were worried that Liu Xie's brain would be hot, and Guan Yu would be officially appointed as the official Xuzhou pastor.
Originally, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong also wanted to subtly let Liu Xie understand Liu Bei's threat, and appointed a wise man to be the pastor of Xuzhou.
As a result, Yuan Shu came to such a play directly in person.
You're Yuan Shu!
You are Yuan Shu who was captured by Guan Yusheng!
What is the reason why you are here to ask Guan Yu for a reward?
Do you feel a sense of accomplishment when you were captured?
Yuan Shuke didn't care what Zhang Miao and Chen Gong thought, this was originally one of the contents of the agreement with Zheng Ping.
Even a person like Yuan Shu, who has no discipline, will say, "Now that Guan Yu has captured his father, this Xuzhou Mu should also deserve his name." "Here comes the words.
Liu Xie saw that Guan Yu rejected Guangluxun, and heard that the people of Xuzhou jointly promoted Guan Yu as the pastor of Xuzhou, and immediately said: "The people of Xuzhou jointly promoted the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion as the pastor of Xuzhou, which shows that the Marquis of Hanshou Pavilion is deeply loved by the people of Xuzhou." β
"That being the case, I will issue an edict later, ordering Hanshou Pavilion Marquis Guan Yu to serve as the pastor of Xuzhou, and then be crowned as the general of Zhennan."
Guan Yu took a step forward, not giving Zhang Miao and Chen Gong time to react, and thanked him: "Minister, Guan Yu, thank you!" β
Conspiracy!
There's definitely a conspiracy in this!
Zhang Miao and Chen Gong glanced at each other, and they both smelled an unusual smell.
Before the two of them could make a move, Guan Yu said again: "Your Majesty, this time you can capture Yuan Shu alive, and there is one more person who has contributed to it." β
Liu Xie suddenly became interested: "I don't know who this person is?" β
Guan Yu said in a condensed voice: "This person is from Donglai, his surname is Taishi, and his single name is a ci character, and he is the righteous brother of the son of Kang Chenggong of Beihai." β
"When Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to attack the counties of Yangzhou, Taishi Ciyi helped Yangzhou to assassinate Liu Xuan, but Liu Xuan was jealous of his ability and expelled Tai Shi Ci and seized the merchant ships purchased by Tai Shi Ci in Wu County."
"After that, Liu Miao was defeated by Sun Jian, the army was defeated and fled, and most of Yangzhou fell into the hands of Yuan Shu."
"Tai Shi Ci was not angry, so he came to Qingzhou to find a certain brother and borrowed some soldiers and horses to go south to Yangzhou."
"Later, Tai Shi Ci lobbied Lujiang to guard Lu Kang, Yuzhang to guard Huaxin, and Huiji to guard Wang Lang, and the three counties fought against Yuan Shu."
"Wang Lang also lobbied the Wu County Taishou Xu Gong appointed by Yuan Shu, and Xu Gong surrendered."
"The soldiers of the four counties besieged Danyang County, and Zhou Shang, the Taishou of Danyang County, was also appointed by Yuan Shu."
"This person is a member of Dasi Nong's clan, Taishi Cixiao took advantage of it, and he also said that he surrendered Zhou Shang without spending a single soldier."
"If there is no Taishi Ciding Yangzhou Five Counties, it will be difficult for Guan to capture Yuan Shu."
"Guan thought that Liu Xuanbing, the assassin of Yangzhou, was defeated and humiliated by the king, and he could no longer serve as the assassin of Yangzhou; Tai Shi Ci can get the support of the five counties, and he will definitely be able to govern Yangzhou for His Majesty. β
"This person is also the righteous brother of the son of Kang Chenggong, a famous Confucian in the Kangcheng High Sea, and it is often said that he is a rare wise and virtuous gentleman when he is the son of today."
"With Tai Shi Ci as the pastor of Yangzhou, and then related to a certain and Qingzhou Liu Envoy Jun, I will definitely help Your Majesty to set the Central Plains and restore the glory of my Han family!"
Tai Shici is in Qingzhou, and he has never had a serious official position.
Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei have served as ministers of the Plains, and Tai Shici has always been just a general.
Therefore, Guan Yu's half-truths and half-truths, no one can question them at this time.
And Tai Shici served under Liu Xuan, which is also traceable.
Guan Yu carried Zheng Xuan out according to Zheng Ping's instructions.
I almost said directly to Liu Xie: Tai Shici was recommended by Zheng Xuan, Zheng Xuan praised Your Majesty, you are a rare wise and virtuous king, Your Majesty, you can look at it.
The identity is not bad, and there are famous people who recommend them, and there are bloodless achievements in winning the five counties of Yangzhou.
and then Guan Yu's last sentence "Tai Shi Ci is the pastor of Yangzhou, and then Guan and Qingzhou Liu Zhijun are here, which will definitely help His Majesty to set the Central Plains and restore the glory of my Han family!", which directly soared Liu Xie's blood.
Zhang Miao and Chen Gong were dumbfounded again.
Guan Yu's words are too familiar!
Because, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong did the same.
Who says that a loyal minister cannot speak flattery?
Zhang Miao and Chen Gong were able to gain Liu Xie's trust, which was to follow the actions of the close ministers of the Ten Standing Servants, and to gain Liu Xie's trust with a low profile, and then take power.
And now, Guan Yu is the same!
Pick up what Liu Xie likes to listen to.
When Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, and Li Dao were there, which courtier who supported the army and respected himself would have a low profile in front of Liu Xie?
And now, Zhang Miao Chen Gong is like this, and so is Guan Yu!
This made twelve-year-old Liu Xie have blind self-confidence, and Liu Xie said:
"General Zhennan is reasonable, since Tai Shi Ci was recommended by Kang Chenggong, and has such a high reputation in Yangzhou, the soldiers are bloodless in Yangzhou, compared to Liu Xuan, Tai Shi Ci is more suitable to be the pastor of Yangzhou."
"I named Tai Shici as the pastor of Yangzhou, and then added General Annan, so that he could govern Yangzhou."
"He raised troops to the north for me every day to crusade against the puppet emperor's rebellion."
In a short period of time, Liu Xie successively crowned Guan Yu and Tai Shici as Xuzhou Mu and Yangzhou Mu, which made Zhang Miao and Chen Gong a little overwhelmed.
Chen Gong stubbornly said: "Your Majesty, although Liu Miao was defeated, he had no merit and hard work. What's more, Liu Miao entered Yangzhou alone, and it is not as good as Tai Shi Ci to borrow the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou. β
"Now that Liu Miao is still here, he will appoint Tai Shici as the pastor of Yangzhou, and the minister thinks it is not appropriate."
Guan Yu snorted coldly: "Who are you?" How dare you question Your Majesty's decision? β
Chen Gong frowned and said, "I am Shangshu Ling Chen Gong." β
Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes narrowed, and his tone softened: "Chen Shangshu, Guan Mou has heard You Heng mention you in the past. β
"You Hengyan said that you are a famous person in Dongjun, you are honest and honest, and you are quite aware of the righteousness of the country, and you have also helped Qingzhou and set the Yanzhou rebellion."
"Why do you say things that reward and punishment are unknown today?"
"Tai Shici's merits are obvious to all, if he doesn't reward him just because of Liu Xuan, wouldn't it make the loyal ministers and righteous people feel cold?"
"Although Yuan Shu was captured alive, there are still many old Yuan Shu departments in Yangzhou and the protΓ©gΓ©s of the Yuan clan in Runan, and these people need a person with both wisdom and courage to pacify them."
"Guan doesn't think that Liu Miao can pacify Yangzhou."
was praised by Guan Yu first and then blamed, Chen Gong suddenly blushed with shame.
You can't just say on the spot, Tai Shici became the pastor of Yangzhou, and the three states of Qingxu and Yang have all become Liu Bei's forces?
Chen Gong dared to say this to his face, and Guan Yu would definitely draw his sword against him.
Blatantly saying that Qing Xu Yang is Liu Bei's force is equivalent to saying that Liu Bei intends to rebel, and Guan Yu will not be called Guan Yu if he does not hack Chen Gong to death.
Zhang Miao also knew that today's occasion was not right, even if he wanted to advise, he had to find Liu Xie in private.
"Haha! Guan Junhou misunderstood, Chen Shangshu didn't mean that. Zhang Miao said: "Today is the day to welcome Guan Junhou, who will be the pastor of Yangzhou, how about discussing it another day?" β
Guan Yu squinted: "Let's discuss it another day?" Who are you? Why did you repeatedly block His Majesty's edict? β
Zhang Miao's face suddenly became a little ugly.
Guan Yu pretended not to know himself?
"I'm Situ Zhang Miao!" Zhang Miao held his breath, and looked at Guan Yu with more anger in his eyes.
Guan Yu snorted coldly: "Since it is Situ, you should respect Your Majesty's order!" Since His Majesty has crowned Tai Shici, as a courtier, he should follow orders. β
"A Shangshuling and a Situ are in charge of most of the authority in the court, not only refuting His Majesty's decision in public, but even saying such disrespectful words as discussing another day."
"It is precisely because the imperial court has such powerful ministers that His Majesty has been humiliated repeatedly."
"Today, don't you also want to follow the example of Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, and Li Dao and bully Your Majesty when he is young?"
"Although Lu Shi is immortal, Guan is still alive! The Hou of Hanshou Pavilion is still here! β
"Guan's knife can't tolerate traitors and thieves!"
