The beginning of the Three Kingdoms Cheng Yuanzhi

Chapter 196 Unbelievable News

In the spring of the sixth year of Jian'an, people were extremely impetuous.

Every prince and aristocrat who has no worries about food and clothing wants to vent something or shoot something.

Some people choose to ride horses out of the city to shoot deer, while others ride out of the city to shoot eagles.

And Cheng Yuanzhi chose to take his youngest wife, Zhen Mi, to Xudu.

In the city of Xudu, there was a constant exchange of scouts and work, and further news from the land of Huainan came one after another.

Cheng Yuanzhi sent out all the eloquent literati and advisers under his command, and set a target for everyone, at least to instigate a rebellion in one county, and if they fail to complete, half a year's salary will be deducted.

If completed, a one-year salary will be awarded.

For every additional county that is instigated, the reward will be doubled.

Rewards are unlimited.

This plan was named the "Eating Whale Plan", also known as the "Three-Year Peaceful Evolution Plan".

Agudo is the fastest.

As soon as the order was given, he took up the dry food, took the water bottle, and set off with an old horse.

Why is it an old horse?

Because he is from the Eastern Qiang, he is only proficient in Chinese, and he is not very familiar with the geographical conditions of the Central Plains.

And old horse, know the way!
Seeing Agudo gearing up, Cheng Yuanzhi worried about his money for no reason.

I don't know if I can stand it.

Fortunately, the body can withstand it.

After sitting for a long time, Cheng Yuanzhi felt slightly uncomfortable.Secretly sighed:

After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Zhen Mi is becoming more and more annoying.

What a leprechaun!

Then again, this peaceful evolution plan is really a blow to Yuan Shu's dimensionality reduction.

Huainan Shouchun.

Yuan Shu was immersed in the joy of being the emperor, and the city was peaceful.Little did he know that the danger was approaching step by step.

On the east side, Sun Quan tightened the fence and carefully sorted out the intricate family problems inside.

Depending on the situation, at least three years and as many as five years, Jiangdong will be firmly controlled.

Before that, Sun Quan would not step out of Jiangdong.

In Jingzhou, the elderly Liu Biao was softened by Cai's warm embrace, and he no longer had the slightest drive. He didn't care how the outside world changed, and only wanted to protect his wife and the one-acre land in Jingzhou.

Xu all.

While observing the general situation of the world, Cheng Yuanzhi was doing her favorite thing with Zhen Mi every day.

——Lifting the bar, back and forth.

At the same time, patiently wait for the good news to come one by one.

Changyi County came to vote...

Juye County came to vote...

Seven counties including Jinxiang, Dongmin, Fangdong, Fangyu, Gaoping, Hulu, and Nanpingyang came to vote...

Xiaqiu County came to vote...

In just half a month, all ten counties of Shanyang County under Yanzhou came to vote.

Many counselors rushed into Yuzhou like locusts crossing the border, targeting 98 counties in six counties including Yingchuan, Runan, Chen Guo, Liang Guo, Pei Guo, and Lu Guo.

In April of the sixth year of Jian'an, three months after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor,
Shouchun, the palace.

Yuan Shu sits high on the throne, Yan Xiang sits kneeling below, Yang Hong, Lei Bo, Chen Lan, Ji Ling, Zhang Xun and other generals line up on the left and right.

Such a big fanfare is naturally a necessary ostentation for an emperor.

For the past three months, Yuan Shu has been waiting for the envoy of his righteous brother Cheng Yuanzhi, waiting for the latter to recognize him as the Son of Destiny and bow down to him.

Then, the two brothers joined hands to fight invincible all over the world.

Although he is not needed, the adopted brother can still fight against all the invincible opponents in the world.

But that doesn't matter!
The important thing is that such a beautiful prospect, just thinking about it, makes him so excited!

However, Yuan Shu never expected that instead of waiting for Xu Du to come, he waited for a travel-worn official to stumble in.

Yuan Shu was very familiar with this official. He appointed Yanzhou Mu and Li Ye, the prefect of Yingchuan.

"Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

Li Ye threw his hands on the ground, bowed to Yuan Shu who was above him, and said in a hurry.

When saluting, the three strands of long beard under his chin were hanging on the ground, looking quite elegant and mature.

"What's the panic?"

Yuan Shu raised his hand to support him, and said: "Love you, please stay calm. As the shepherd of a state, you should be calm and calm when you encounter problems. Don't panic when the sky falls. I will sit here and measure some young people. Can't make any waves!"

With every gesture, Yuan Shu was on the safe side.

"Your Majesty, something serious has happened!" Li Ye stood up slowly and emphasized anxiously,
Yuan Shu looked serious, stood up in horror, and asked, "But the general has a million troops to attack?"

Li Ye shook his head: "That's not true!"

Yuan Shu heaved a long sigh of relief, then sat down slowly, and said indifferently:
"Since it's not my brother-in-law who came to attack, why panic? Aiqing sit down and ask slowly, what is it?"

Yuan Shu's actions this time made all the civil and military officers who were secretly observing feel more at ease.

Being calm at every turn is the magnanimity an emperor should have.

How else could he be said to be an emperor?

In such a turbulent situation, he accurately grasped the point of being the emperor, and successfully ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor.

It has been three months, and the emperor of Xudu, Liu Xie, dared not let out a fart, and the general Yuan She, the sworn brother of the lord Yuan Shu, showed no signs of movement.

It seems that the fact that Yuan Shu was the emperor was acquiesced.

This is boldness!
Anyway, they are now working under the only emperor in the world.

Everyone thought so, and turned their eyes to Li Ye.

Li Ye had always had a small talent and was good at managing people's livelihood. After Yuan Shu ascended the throne, he was named Yanzhou Shepherd from the prefect of Yingchuan.

Official positions, salaries and jurisdictions have all changed.

In the past, Yingchuan only governed the seventeen counties under Yingchuan's jurisdiction; now, the prefect of Yingchuan has jurisdiction over the entire Yanzhou - which was personally appointed by Emperor Yuan Shu.

Of course, Yanzhou is currently in the hands of Cheng Yuanzhi, and Li Ye will definitely not dare to run over and point fingers.

Thinking about it, Li Ye probably came here for this matter.

Could it be that the officials he sent out to take office in Yanzhou were driven back?
Thoughts in everyone's minds turned quickly, but Li Ye spoke faster. He looked at Yuan Shu and said quickly:
"Your Majesty, the ten counties under Shanyang County have all rebelled!"

Yuan Shu, who had just sat down, jumped up suddenly upon hearing the words, his expression changed drastically and he asked:

"Why is this?!"

Ten counties rebelled without warning?
why?
Facing Yuan Shu's questioning, Li Ye did not show any timidity, organized his words a little, and replied respectfully:
"I don't know, there is no sign, and there is no news."

"Ten days ago, I sent ten officials to ten counties to check the taxes. After they went, they disappeared like stone and never came back."

"I inquired and heard that within these ten days, their families had moved to Shanyang County with their families."

Li Ye's words were full of anxiety and bewilderment, which fully showed that he didn't know what was going on.

But things happen for a reason.There must be something unknown going on here.


Hearing this, Yuan Shu panicked immediately, shaking his hands, walking anxiously in front of the dragon chair, muttering to himself:

"How is this good? How is this good?"

His state was like an ant on a hot pot.

I completely forgot what I told Li Ye just now, "Don't panic when the sky is falling, hold on."

"His Majesty!"

Yan Xiang frowned and thought for a while, got up and left the seat, came to the middle, and bowed his hands to Yuan Shu, who was at the head:
"Your Majesty, these officials have been instigated..."

"In the past two days, I heard someone in Shouchun City say 'encroaching on the whale and devouring the plan' and 'three years of peaceful evolution'. I was about to find out what this whale and peaceful evolution are, when Mr. Li Fu arrived, so I guessed that Shanyang ten The great changes in the county may be related to this plan."


After finishing his guess in one breath, Yan Xiang looked at Yuan Shu solemnly.

He understands the meaning of nibbling, but he doesn't know what it is.

In his cognition, the largest living creature in the world is an elephant.

It is impossible to imagine a larger species.

As soon as Yan Xiang finished speaking, the expressions of all the officials in the hall changed.

Yuan Shu slapped his forehead fiercely and shouted:
"It's him! It's him!"

"This is his method!"

"Come on, quickly send an envoy to Xudu and question my righteous brother, why did he carry out such a vicious plan!"

As soon as the words fell, envoys had already taken orders and left.

Yuan Shu slumped back to his seat, feeling a little nervous all over his body, the fright he received this time was quite serious.

He was plotted against.

This is really scary news!
He always believed that Cheng Yuanzhi would never come to beat him.

As far as Chong Cheng Yuanzhi rescued his uncle Yuan Kai from Dong Zhuo's knife, and took care of him filially for the rest of his life, he doesn't look like a person who would do anything to his righteous brother.

But now it’s time to take action.

Yuan Shu's greatest reliance has always been the strength of Cheng Yuanzhi.

Now, his proud reliance is coming to tease him.

How not to panic!

Yuan Shu suddenly felt unprecedented fear, and even for a moment, he wanted to give all the territory under his jurisdiction to Cheng Yuanzhi in exchange for his subordinates to show mercy.

"Hehehehe..."

"It must not be true!"

"My foster brother won't come and beat me..."

"Definitely not!"

Yuan Shu laughed maniacally, got up from the dragon chair, and walked away talking to himself.
