Three Kingdoms: The Yellow Turbans finally revolt

Chapter 211 Personal Honor, Disgrace, Life and Death, What Matters!
Liu Qing led Yao Gong and others back to the mansion, intending to take this opportunity to talk about the situation in several counties around Bohai Sea.

Now Zhongshan County, Zhao County, and Wei County are all bound to be won, and Bohai County is also in the bag, and all that is left is to be completely digested. The rest of Jizhou is only the three counties of Hejian Kingdom, Anping Kingdom and Qinghe Kingdom.

Hejian was originally a fiefdom of Liu Hong. The Yellow Turban was a mess and was looted from head to toe by Cheng Yuanzhi. Now Hejian is controlled by Cao Cao.

King Anping and King Ganling of Qinghe Kingdom were captured by Zhang Jiao during the Yellow Scarves, and they were also redeemed by Liu Hong with money. Now Qinghe Kingdom has been changed into a prefecture, and Yao Gong is the prefect. Anping Kingdom was spared, and Liu Xu still As the king, now the country's prime minister is Wang Ji, this time, Yuan Shao also invited him along.

Liu Qing didn't know the specific purpose of Yuan Shao's invitation to come here, but he could guess roughly, it was nothing more than to stand up and deal with Dong Zhuo and the like.

After all, the current Liu Qing has not yet become a thorn in Yuan's side.

Liu Qing looked at the two people who were a bit panicked, and asked straight to the point: "Yao Gong, Governor of Qinghe County, and Wang Ji, Prime Minister of Anping Kingdom, Ming people don't speak dark words, Yuan Benchu ​​called you here, what's the matter?"

Yao Gong cupped his hands and said, "Back to King Bohai, originally we were here to celebrate Yuan Benchu's promotion to the prefect."

"Congratulations? Isn't it an alliance?" Liu Qing asked, in fact, he was probing randomly, or in other words, to scare them.

"Alliance? Oh, King Bohai, where did you start this matter? Yuan Benchu, the fourth and third prince, came here to take up his post, so we naturally want to make friends." Wang Ji said.

This is also human nature.

"Then now that the king is here, I wonder if you are willing to make friends?" Liu Qing smiled harmlessly.

But this smile, in the eyes of these two people, is not very friendly, after all, not long ago, Liu Qing used this smile to make Yuan Shaosheng faint.

"Naturally, naturally!" The two laughed together.

Of course, this is just a superficial statement, and it's just a pretense. After all, according to the laws of the Han Dynasty, Liu Qing can't govern the Bohai Kingdom, only the power of taxation.

How did they know that Liu Qing planned to completely eat Bohai County.

As a symbol of himself, Liu Qing not only wanted to appoint officials of the prefecture, but also the position of Prime Minister had already been prepared for Xun Yu.

He wanted to call Xun Yu over, not just to talk to Xun Chen, but for the truth. After entering the city, Liu Qing felt that the trip was sure to win, so he directly sent out the letter calling Xun Yu.

"President Wang, how is King Anping?" Liu Qing asked concerned. In fact, he knew that Liu Xu was not well, because the assassination of Liu Hong happened in Anping Kingdom. It is inevitable to continue to be punished.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Wang Jiyan replied insincerely.

Liu Qing also asked about the affairs of the counties of Anping and Qinghe, whether there were refugees and bandits in the territory, whether the people were warmly clothed, fed enough, whether they had land and so on.

Yao Gong and Wang Ji were questioned and doubted, as if the King of Bohai was very familiar with their county, some things they couldn't answer were still mentioned by Liu Qing.

They didn't know that Liu Qing had been in business for many years, and there were several counties in Jizhou. Even if he was away from the map, Liu Qing could tell one, two, three, four.

After seeing off the guests from other counties, when Liu Qing went to the mansion again, there was no one at the door. Ban Ming came to report that Yuan Shao had already brought people out of the city.

Cao Cao probably sent Yuan Shao off.

Tian Feng came up and said, "The Lord keeps these two, but do you have any thoughts about Anping and Qinghe?"

Liu Qing glanced at Tian Feng quickly, and said sullenly: "Yuan Hao, don't talk nonsense, Liu Xu of Anping Kingdom and Liu Zhong, King of Ganling, are relatives of the Han family, and they are brothers with me, how can I seize their county? "

After Liu Qing finished speaking, he flicked his sleeves and went back, leaving Tian Feng with a back view. Looking at that back view, Tian Feng felt——

I can't understand the lord more and more!
……

Wei County.

The banquet was over, Fu Xie and Guo Dian had just left not long ago with drunkenness.

An urgent letter was delivered to Li Wen.

It was sent by the magistrate of Liangqi County. A large number of soldiers and horses were found outside Liangqi County. Now Liangqi County has closed the city gate, but there is only one army in the county, asking the county government for support.

The judge was beside him, and before he left, Li Wen quickly explained what was in the letter.

Shen Pei thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, Liang Qi has few soldiers, so you should send troops to defend when the enemy is not attacking."

"Zhengnan, have you noticed that what is said in the letter is a large number of soldiers and horses, not rogues, yellow scarves or the Black Mountain army. Could it be the soldiers and horses of Zhao County? I heard that there is a army of soldiers and horses in Zhao County that drove Montenegro The army is running around, could it happen to be that army stationed temporarily at the border?" Li Wen guessed.

"What the Fujun said is not unreasonable, but the county soldiers must make second-hand preparations. If they can defend the enemy from the outside, it will be the best." Shen Pei said.

"What Zhengnan said is exactly what I want!"

"Your Majesty, I have one more matter, I don't know if I should say it or not."

"When? But it's okay to say!" Li Wen said.

"Don't you think it's strange that General Fu and Guo Taishou came here? Why did the two of them stay in Ye County at such a close of the year? If we talk about paying homage, it seems that it's been a while."

As soon as the judge said, Li Wen remembered that at the banquet, it seemed that Fu Xie always had a hard time speaking. Could it be because there were too many people at the banquet and it was difficult to discuss with each other?
"Oops!" Li Wen exclaimed as soon as he beat his hands, "It's almost a big event. General Fu's hometown is far away in Liangzhou. How could he come to pay my respects to me? He came here to discuss important matters with me! Zhengnan , rush to help, you hurry to arrange, I will see General Fu!" Li Wen hurriedly ordered, and walked out, shouting: "Prepare the horse!"

Fu Xie and Guo Dian have already arrived at the posthouse. They were surprised by Jia Cong's arrival. Although the governor of Yizhou has very little real power, he has a wide range of control, especially the matter they want to discuss with Li Wen. , is to bring the county to submit to the lord, such a major matter, naturally cannot be said in front of the supervisor.

What's more, this governor is from the south.

"Junye, do you think Prefect Li will agree to this?" Fu Xie said.

Guo Diansi said nothing.

"Why do I feel that Jia Cong seems to know what you and I are here?" Fu Xie asked again.

"General Fu, don't think too much, I think Bochong should agree, but if it doesn't work, let's tell the young master about saving his life in Baibo Valley, and see what he does!" Guo Dian said.

Fu Xie still couldn't sit still, so he stood up and started pacing.

"Your Majesty! There is news!" A servant ran over suddenly, out of breath, and said, "The spies at the gate of the camp came to report. After the interrogation has entered the barracks, the county soldiers will go out."

"What! Say it again!" Guo Dian said angrily.

Before he even spoke, the trial match ordered soldiers and horses to go out?
"The spies at the gate of the camp came to report that the county soldiers have already set off after the trial and dispatch entered the barracks."

"Quickly report this news to Military Adviser Guo Jia!" Fu Xie said.

Another attendant came over and said, "General Fu, Governor Guo, and Governor Li are here!"

Li Wen!He even came on his own initiative!
Fu Xie and Guo Dian looked at each other, and there was a hint of surprise in both pairs of eyes.

There is a play!

"Invite him in quickly!" Fu Xie said hastily.

The decoration of the post house is very ordinary, and there is no decent living room. There is a window, which is not closed tightly, and cold wind comes in from time to time, so the three of them just sit in the room casually.

Li Wen cut to the chase, and said directly: "General Fu and Prefect Guo forgive me for not being well received!"

Guo Dian smiled, "Prefect Li was joking, we are all from the army, and we have never been in any harsh environment!"

"There were a lot of people at the banquet. Wen came here to ask, General Fu came all the way, but what's the big deal?"

When Fu Xie and Guo Dian heard this, they smiled knowingly, Li Wen's intuition was accurate enough!
"There is indeed a big event!" Fu Xie said solemnly.

"General Fu, please tell me."

"It's a long story. Since last year, the yellow scarves have been poisonous, and the court has become incompetent, causing chaos in the world and suffering for the people, especially the people of Jizhou!" Fu Xie said.

Li Wen nodded, agreeing with Fu Xie's words very much, and continued to listen. Matters involving the common people must be a major event, and Li Wen thought that his intuition was accurate.

"Xie conquered Henan, Yanji and merged the four prefectures, and saw a lot. After becoming the prefect of Hanyang, he deeply felt the difficulty of governing the county. The powerful cannot seize the land, the soldiers and horses cannot suppress the thieves, and the people cannot obtain what they want. , such mountains and rivers fell into my hands, I am ashamed!"

It sounded like Fu Xie was introspective, but both Guo Dian and Li Wen were thinking about themselves after hearing this.

How is your prefect doing?
Needless to say Guo Dian, as the main battlefield of the Yellow Turban War, where the Han army and the Yellow Turban army saw each other back and forth, it would be an understatement to say that the people are in dire straits.

Li Wen, on the other hand, thought of those tyrants in Wei Jun. He neither hated nor dared, but was unable to move.

If the tyrants unite, their private soldiers may be comparable to the county soldiers.

At the time of the Yellow Turbans, they recruited soldiers to protect themselves, but now they are too big to lose, and they have become a trouble for supporting soldiers.

In addition, the counties in the southwest were harassed by the Black Mountain Army, and the people suffered unspeakably.

Fu Xie's accomplishments in Hanyang were well-known throughout the world, but it was a pity that the governor's crimes caused the Han army to rebel and Hanyang County fell.

Compared to Fu Xie, Li Wen is of course even more unqualified.

"Ashamed!" Li Wen followed up.

"I'm even more ashamed!" Guo Dian followed suit.

"Bochong, you must be curious as to why I am here."

Li Wen nodded, this is also the purpose of his coming.

"I wonder if you have heard about the current situation in Changshan County?"

As soon as I said this, I brought up another headache for Li Wen, that is, the county residents kept fleeing, and they wanted to flee to Changshan County. Fortunately, Zhao County blocked them. There were many Black Mountain troops in Zhao County, so the people dared not Fleeing to the north rashly, if Chang Shan is in the Northern Territory, Li Wen is really worried that the county people will run away.

It's just that he has never had the opportunity to see what kind of place Changshan County is that the people yearn for.

"I have heard a little bit. I heard that Changshan County is not only governed by Qingming, but there are almost no thieves, no refugees, and people can live in peace and clothing. Even refugees can rely on labor to exchange for food. But these are the rumors I heard. It's not true." Li Wen said.

"If I say that everything that Bo Chong said is true, and it's more than that, what do you think?"

Li Wen was stunned, then smiled helplessly, and said: "Then this Ju Shou is really a pillar of talent, he should be ranked among the nine ministers!"

"Bo Chong!" Fu Xie suddenly called out seriously, "You must not panic about what I want to say."

"General, please speak."

"Ju Shou, the prefect of Changshan, is Liu Qing's aide, Zhao Yun, the captain of Changshan, is also Liu Qing's aide, and this—" Fu Xie pointed to Guo Dian, and introduced: "Guo Dian, the prefect of Julu, is from Changtao County. The elder, Dong Zhao, are all Liu Qing's staff."

Li Wen's expression froze immediately, Liu Qing is the prefect of Yanmen, and he is logically equal to them, why...

"There is one more thing." Fu Xie continued: "Mr. Liu Qing is now the king of Bohai, and the late emperor decreed that Bohai will be restored!"

Li Wen was so shocked by the news that he needed to digest it.

"Oh, I almost forgot, I, Fu Xie, is now considered the aide of the King of Bohai Sea, and I have regarded him as my lord."

What?Li Wen opened his mouth slightly, the phrase "what" was shouted in his heart.

Young Master Liu Qing, Marquis of Wuzhou, Governor of Yanmen, a person he admires very much, even though Liu Qing is much younger than him.

But how could half of Jizhou belong to him in just a few words?When did he develop to this point?

"The words have come to this point, I can tell you that the ambition of the king of Bohai Sea is to benefit the world with the lives of the people in Changshan!"

Benefiting the world, just four words, shocked Li Wen. In this way, Liu Qing's ambition is for the world?
Doesn't this mean that the king of Bohai is going to rebel?
Hehe, the Bohai Kingdom was withdrawn twice because of this, and the King of Bohai is going to counter this rumor that has been circulating around the world for decades, is it going to come true?
Moreover, Fu Xie and Guo Dian in front of him, in Li Wen's opinion, loyal ministers and generals who are first-rate to the big man, actually want to follow him?
The imperial court... Hehe, the corner of Li Wen's mouth twitched helplessly when he thought of the imperial court. Perhaps this was the reason why these loyal ministers and good generals chose Liu Qing.

After all, the King of Bohai is the nephew of the first emperor. If he really wants to change the imperial court, he is indeed the most suitable candidate.

"Then General Fu is here as a lobbyist?" Li Wen seemed to realize it.

"The king of Bohai is determined to win this county of Wei. You must already know the soldiers and horses outside Liang Qi County." Fu Xie said.

Li Wen raised his eyes and glanced at Fu Xie, "So, the two of you came here, are you going to be courteous first and then soldiers?"

There was a hint of indifference in Li Wen's tone, anyone would be uncomfortable, because he is the prefect of Wei County, and Wei County is where the Jizhou government is located, and it is the most important county.

"Bochong, listen to me, for the sake of the people of Weijun and Jizhou, you have followed the King of Bohai. He treats people generously, respects the virtuous and corporal, and even your position as the prefect of Weijun will not change!"

"But I am a minister of the Han Dynasty, not a minister of the Bohai Kingdom!" Li Wen said seriously.

Fu Xie was taken aback. Is this Li Wen's last statement?

"Bo Chong, I am also a minister of the great Han, the king of Bohai, and the king of the great Han." Guo Dian interjected while Fu Xie paused.

"Then one day, will he be the emperor of the Han Dynasty?"

This...Guo Dian was stopped by Li Wen's words, the Son of Heaven, don't talk nonsense.

"Alas!" Fu Xie sighed, and said in a deep voice, "Bochong, you know that in Hanyang County, when the rebels besieged Ji County, I originally planned to occupy the city and die for the country."

This incident is well known throughout the world. Later, because the rebels outside the city begged Fu Xie to give up their resistance, claiming not to harm him and the people in the city, Fu Xie had to lose the city for the sake of the people in the city.

"At that time, my determination to die became stronger and I finally abandoned the city, not because the rebels outside the city knelt and cried and begged." Fu Xie said lightly.

A hint of curiosity crept up on Li Wen's face, wasn't it because of this?

Fu Xie immediately took out a letter, unfolded it very carefully, adjusted it, and moved it in front of Li Wen so that he could read it directly.

Li Wen looked at the above text, his eyes gradually widened. The content of the letter was unbelievable, but he couldn't refute it. This was a righteous statement that subverted the classics!

"This letter was given to me by my son when I was in Hanyang County. At first I didn't understand the meaning of it, until the moment when I planned to die for the country, I understood your good intentions! Hanyang County is the place where the Fourth World War was fought, Liang The situation in the state is complicated, and Yueyue rebelled, and the young master has predicted that I will have this day."

Li Wen's face was full of disbelief, this letter was written in advance by King Bohai?Not only did he predict that Fu Xie would die, but he also predicted that Fu Xie would die for the country...

Li Wen could not help but shudder.

It is said that the King of Bohai is not only brave, but also uses soldiers like a god. Unexpectedly, even such a thing can be expected.

"Bochong, I know that you are loyal to the big man, but this big man is not in the court, but in the people of Li. Compared with him, your personal honor, disgrace, life and death are nothing!"

"Personal honor and disgrace, life and death, what's the point?" Li Wen asked himself, his eyes continued to fall on the letter.

"To die for loyalty is a nickname; to live for the world is righteousness!"
