Mixed in the Three Kingdoms as a strategist

Being able to guard the affluent land of Jingxiang as solid as gold, not afraid of small offenders, and living in peace with the fierce tiger Lu Bu for so long, Liu Biao's strengths and weaknesses are obvious.

The short is that he does not think about making progress, but is soft and gentle;

He prides himself on the virtues of a gentleman, except that he was single and weak at the beginning, and was forced to control Jingzhou by means of thunder when he was pushed by Dong Zhuo. Faded that killing decision.

He followed Liu Bei's suggestion, and the main purpose of his trip was to test Lu Bu's attitude towards Jingzhou and to observe the pros and cons of the imperial examination with his own eyes. As a courtier, he is loyal to the emperor and serves the country.

By the way, Liu Bei's achievements will be reported one by one, so as to help him find a formal official position.

This is also what the Cai family strongly supports: no matter whether your Majesty thinks highly of this three-thousand-mile emperor's uncle, and finally plans to arrange where he will be an official. It may be unfavorable to Liu Jingzhou who once took him in.

It not only helped him to rise to the top, forged a good relationship, but also logically removed this thorn in his side that was difficult to deal with, and sent it away, so that he no longer worried about Liu Biao’s bad idea of ​​​​cutting the authority of the Cai family with confidence after dinner and dinner. Why not do it.

Although everyone had their own thoughts, the banquet was organized so that Liu Biao felt very welcome, and Lu Bu and Yan Qing gave him enough face, so he enjoyed it with peace of mind.

Thinking about the honor of His Majesty making a special trip to meet them tomorrow, Liu Biao had told his entourage not to be greedy for alcohol, but to get drunk. It is also inevitable that it will damage the appearance.

But he can understand that the purity of the wine brewed by the method taught by Yan Qing is more than ten times that of ordinary wine, with different tastes, some are spicy, some are sweet, some are mellow, and the only thing they have in common is stamina It's perfect.

When they put on their official uniforms in a daze and hurried into the palace, waiting for their audience with a blurry vision, they could only force themselves to wake up by looking around.

Speaking of the process of building the palace and persuading the emperor to move in, there were some disturbances.

After the most difficult year of drought and locust infestation, Lu Bu slowly began to order people to build the palace under the impeachment memorial that kept falling like snowflakes.

The speed is fast enough. The work starts as soon as the spring seeds are over, and is busy all the way until the autumn wheat is ripe, and the work is completed before the weather turns cold completely.

According to Lu Bu, since the civil and military officials and His Majesty are all in such a hurry, they can only be wronged to keep things simple for the time being, and wait for the weather to be favorable and the Han people to be prosperous before considering large-scale construction projects.

As for when this will happen, Liu Xie is not a three-year-old child who can be coaxed by this distant promise.

When he looked at the newly built palace, although the details were very delicate, it could be called a small sparrow with complete internal organs, but he was full of reluctance.

Not only is the magnificence of Meiwu, where Grand Master Dong lived, who bullied and committed the crime at the beginning, even inferior to the splendor of Meiwu, it is also impossible to compare with the burned-out temples in the old capital Luoyang. The palace built by Ma Yunlu is slightly inferior.

If you really want to move in, and live in a mere three-quarters of an acre of land, living as a director, won't it damage the majesty of the emperor?

Even if they live, they can only stay there temporarily.

Liu Xie saw the wealth of the people in Yuzhou. If Lu Bu hadn't deliberately perfunctory, he would not have built such a simple and crude building.So he resolutely refused, and urged his courtiers to protest.

Lu Bu also listened patiently. Liu Xie was greedy, and he responded readily to these civil servants who spoke up for the emperor and spit everywhere.

—Okay, it can be repaired, and the treasury will pay for it.

How can there be any reason to confidently expect a military general who has raised the people of five states and is struggling to support the entire court, not to mention the food, clothing, housing and transportation of hundreds of officials, palace people and family members, but also to help build luxurious palaces?

Among the people under the rule, some have little savings in their families and are unwilling to leave their homes even after enduring the devastation caused by the war.

After finally living a comfortable life that everyone envied in this troubled world, and getting used to the preferential treatment of light corvee and low tax, it is inevitable that I am not used to the sudden increase in corvee.

If these labors were for the sake of Lu Bu Yanqing, the living gods who have brought peace to millions of people, they would have no complaints.

But once he knew that the one who was enjoying the blessing was the little emperor who was not doing his business, but still ate and drank with confidence, it was completely different.

Especially to achieve the level required by Liu Xie, it is impossible to complete the project in three to five years without more than a hundred thousand people. Even if the wages are not paid, it is impossible to not give a bite of food, right?The ones used are all young and strong, and the ones that are delayed are the busy farming, and how much loss will be suffered during the autumn harvest?

Yan Qing purposely set aside precious time to settle accounts for the imperial court who was standing and talking without back pain. civil servants.

Those civil and military ministers who had been making noise all put away their righteous indignation and stopped speaking out for His Majesty.

Everyone knows that this state treasury is so poor that it is probably not as rich as the private treasury of a general or aide of a slightly higher rank who was randomly scooped up in Lu Bu's tent.

What they didn't know was that although Yan Qing, who was the most eye-catching, had received countless generous rewards, all of them had been donated to help the infrastructure construction.

Yan Qing's humble gentleman is fine, but Lu Bu has never been a good idiot. When Yan Qing was fighting with the Confucians, he stood by the side holding the ape's arms, leaning his back against the pillar without saying a word, with a smile that was not a smile. Looking at it, everyone who was swept by that sharp gaze felt chills in their hearts.

Opening this mouth now means that he refuses to cover the little emperor with the last fig leaf.

Fortunately, Lu Bu also knew that he could not force the emperor to come down from power. Instead, he adopted the method of slapping a sweet date, and then with a swipe of a pen, he agreed to Fushou, the daughter of Liu Xieli's waiter Fu Wan, as the queen and It is a request to promote his father to the position of Jinwu.

Only then did Liu Xie calm down, and for a long time afterwards, he didn't dare to test Lu Bu's bottom line of tolerance.

At this moment, the autumn tiger has just passed, the sky is gradually getting cooler, and it is early in the morning, so I have to add a few more clothes than at noon to not feel the cold.

Even if Liu Bei planned carefully all the way, counting the face to face, until the day when he can really face the saint, he can't let go of his heart.

Before going out, the suppressed excitement and anticipation in my heart overwhelmed everything, so that when I stood here, I realized that I was not thick enough under the thin court clothes, so I had to hide my hands in the clothes. Clenched into fists in his sleeves, he sniffed slightly.

"Brother is cold?"

Guan Yu was the most observant. Even if Liu Bei denied it with his eyes, he still moved his stance to block the cool wind blowing from the south.

Zhang Fei showed a look of ignorance, but he followed suit and blocked Liu Bei from the other side.

Fortunately, the little emperor didn't ask this group of courtiers who respected him very much to put on airs of the emperor who hadn't seen him for too long. Liu Biao entered.

Having reached this point, Liu Bei was not in a hurry, he just looked at the furnishings in the hall calmly, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

The emperor first placed his hopes on Liu Biao, but after a few words of probing, Liu Biao's ambition was only to keep Jingzhou smooth, leaving him with nowhere to use his strength.

Liu Biao knew that he was not good at gambling, so he had to think carefully before making a bet.The most irritating thing is that after such a time-consuming process, if he still feels that the risk is quite high, he just abandons the bet and continues to wait and see.

No matter how you look at it, Liu Xie's gesture of eagerly expressing intentions but seriously lacking in planning is not favored by Liu Biao at all.

After being full of urgency, but endured a few boring perfunctory sentences, Liu Xie seemed to be poured down by a basin of cold water, and dismissed the slippery old fritters without interest, and instead attracted him Liu Bei, who made great contributions, was strongly recommended to come in.

Although the clan of the Han Dynasty can be said to be spread all over the world, and it is related to the blood of the Han Dynasty, it is impossible not to check the origin of the other party.After Liu Xie ordered Zong Zhengqing to fetch the family genealogy and recite it, after confirming that Liu Bei was King Jing of Zhongshan, he didn't care too much about his seniority as his uncle who was far away.

After having a real conversation with Liu Bei and observing his impressive momentum, Liu Xie's thoughts changed drastically.

Liu Biao, whom he placed high hopes on at the beginning, disappointed him just like Liu Yan; but this distant emperor uncle, whom he had never expected, gave him a big surprise.

This is not only the nephew, but also the relationship between the monarch and the minister. The two retreated from everything, leaving only one confidant who had followed him for many years, and then they had a very happy conversation.

Under the great joy of Longyan, Liu Xie not only personally recognized him as an uncle, but also gave him a lot of rewards, making him General Zuo and Tinghou of Yicheng. He then hosted banquets and entertained him.

For Yan Qing and others who are well-informed, Liu Xie's high-profile behavior has long been known to all.

It's not all the men and horses they deployed, but seeing that the emperor has lost power and Lu Bu has become a fact, there is always no shortage of followers.

Lu Bu was not in a good mood, but seeing that Yan Qing and Guo Jia were smiling and exchanging glances, and they couldn't care less about jealousy, he was even more puzzled: "Liu Bei, an unknown pawn who sells shoes and weaves mats for a living, is doing it all at once. I don't know how to be rampant after becoming the emperor's uncle, and the reason why the little brat relies so heavily on him is because he is counting on supporting him to contain us? The situation is so unfavorable, why are the two gentlemen not worrying or angry, but rather happy? "

I think that after he got rid of Dong Zhuo, he went back and forth several times to rescue Liu Xie, and he wiped a lot of buttocks for Liu Xie, which can be said to have made great contributions.Even if he had selfish intentions, the emperor got a lot of benefits.As a result, he worked so hard, lost his troops, and gained more promotion and respect than Liu Bei, who had no sporadic military exploits.

The most embarrassing thing is that he personally let them enter the palace safely.

Yan Qing patted his tense shoulders, and said with a smile: "My lord, what do you care about with the grasshopper after Autumn? It's your majesty who cooperated with my plan to lure the snake out of the hole. Thank you, Lord Long."

This time, all the available wings of Liu Xie will be cut off, and next time the opponent can be pulled down from the throne in one fell swoop.

Lu Bu was not a fool, he was stunned for a while, and soon came back to his senses.

Guo Jia said: "Just find out all the people, how do we deal with it? If my lord rashly acts like a king, he will inevitably be reprimanded, so don't move lightly. Don't be careless about Chong Guang. If you are in a hurry, you may get burned."

Yan Qing was actually not as relaxed as he appeared on the surface. Even though he knew much more than others, the situation was always changing, and it might be completely out of his grasp.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to ask Lu Bu to agree to Liu Xie's appointment of Fu Wan's daughter as the empress, in order to minimize the variables as much as possible.

Yan Qing nodded slightly: "Fengxiao is at ease."

Liu Xie is young and the city is not deep, so he doesn't know that the thoughts he thought to be hidden are actually revealed to anyone with discerning eyes.

When he thought that he had completely pulled the emperor's uncle into his camp, he quickly started the next move.
