Three days later.
Liu Bian was in the study, biting a soup cake and looking at Xun Yu's memorial seriously.
Xun Yu's memorial brought together the government affairs of the imperial court, set goals, established methods and methods, coordinated various affairs that were originally scattered, and more clearly defined the responsibilities, powers and responsibilities of all levels of the Shangshutai. Meticulous division.
This was infinitely better than his hammer blowing here and there. It gave Liu Bian a sense of smoothness as if he had cleared away the clouds and mist and seen the moonlight.
His eyes were wide open, staring at each word.
Pan Yin was secretly surprised to see Liu Bian being so serious and forgetting to eat and sleep.
Liu Bian bit the soup cake and suddenly thought of something. He looked up at Pan Yin and shouted vaguely: "Order Liu Biao to enter the servant's house."
"Yes." Pan Yin responded quickly.
Liu Bian looked down at the memorial again, picked up the pen, wrote and recorded.
"Your Majesty, I would like to ask for an audience with the Marquis and Princess Yang'an." Suddenly, a small yellow doorway appeared outside the door.
Liu Bian frowned, then relaxed his brows and said, "Xuan."
"Yes." Xiao Huangmen responded and retreated in small steps.
Not long after, a rather tall, bookish, middle-aged man appeared at the door. Immediately he was a graceful woman in her early thirties, dressed in exquisite and luxurious clothes.
Liu Bian looked at the two people and thought to himself: Are these Fu Wan and Princess Yang'an?
The two of them were also secretly sizing up Liu Bian. Since His Majesty succeeded to the throne, the government and the public have been in a panic that still cannot be dissipated.
Facing Liu Bian's gaze, the two of them quickly lowered their heads and walked in quickly. Fu Wan raised his hand and said, "I don't want you to see your majesty after Fu Wan."
Princess Yang'an followed and bowed down to pay homage.
Liu Bian walked out of the desk with a smile and said: "We are all one family, no courtesy, let's sit down and talk."
Princess Yang'an was Liu Bian's aunt after Emperor Huan.
After finishing his work, he bowed and watched Liu Bian walk to the small table not far away, secretly organizing his words.
The three of them sat down separately. Liu Bian looked at Fu Wan and said, "It's rare for the Fu Qing family to enter the palace. Is there anything going on?"
Princess Yang'an frowned, looking at Fu Wan from the corner of her eye.
After Fu finished, he wanted to be polite, but when Liu Bian got straight to the point, he pretended to hesitate for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, it's like this. My little girl has been married for a long time, so entering the palace... is a little inappropriate."
Liu Bian remained calm, his eyes roaming over the two people's faces, and then he said with a smile: "What's wrong? The Qing family is also disturbed by rumors? Do you think I am jealous of my younger brother?"
"I don't dare." Fu Wan bowed quickly and said.
Princess Yang'an followed, looking panicked.
They originally thought it was Liu Bian's talent show, but they never expected that their daughter was suddenly accused of being married to Liu Xie!
Liu Xie is a "troublesome man" in both the government and the public. Countless people are wondering when he will suddenly "die suddenly" due to illness.
Fu Wan and Princess Yang'an naturally refused to marry their precious daughter to Liu Xie, waiting to be implicated. The best outcome would be to remain a widow!
Liu Bian picked up the teacup, took a sip, smiled leisurely, and said: "It doesn't matter, the Fuqing family and the eldest princess don't have to think about it so much. I will personally marry Liu Xie and Fu Shou. In addition, the Fuqing family, , served as Yu Shi Cheng."
Fu Wan was startled, his expression a little confused, and he was at a loss.
In theory, the Yushitai is headed by the Yushi Dafu, followed by the Yushi Zhongcheng and Yushi Cheng. With the Yushi Dafu being changed to Da Sikong, ranking among the three princes, the real power of the Yushitai fell to the Yushi Zhongcheng. In the hands, he is known as the "master", while Yu Shicheng is the "master".
During last year's vigorous "cutting off redundant officials", Fu Wan was "suspended without pay" and was given the false title of Taisan doctor.
Fu Wan does have the 'ambition' of becoming a marquis and prime minister, but not at this time!
Just as he was about to open his mouth, Liu Bian said again: "I also serve as Da Honglu."
This time not only Fu Wan was stunned, Princess Yang'an was also stunned for a moment, and her expression began to hesitate.
The position of Yu Shicheng is not an important one. He is not as good as the assistant officer of Jiuqing, but Da Honglu is the real Jiuqing!
Among all the cuts and abolitions in Jiuqing, Dahonglu was the only one who was different. Instead of reducing his powers and responsibilities, he increased them.
He was mainly responsible for the dealings, reception, and management of foreigners. He also took over some of the powers and responsibilities of the abolished Shaofu, such as managing some of the royal estates, Royal Forest Gardens, etc.
Liu Bian looked at their expressions and said: "Fuqing family, eldest princess, go see your grandmother. Don't discuss the matter that has been decided. In a few days, the Fuqing family will go to Peixian County on my behalf. , urging Dong Zhuo to use troops."
Fu Wandeng's scalp went numb immediately, but he no longer hesitated at all. He strongly disagreed with his daughter's marriage to Liu Xie. He lowered his head and kept giving signals to Princess Yang'an.
Princess Yang'an was naturally aware of the danger involved and said quickly: "Your Majesty, my little girl..."
Liu Bian picked up the teacup and looked at Princess Yang'an with a smile.
The words that came out of this man's mouth were abruptly stopped.
Fu Wan's eyes were filled with bitterness. If he had known better, he would not have come this time.
Liu Bian took a sip of tea and said: "I heard that in Xuzhou, there was some conflict between Pengcheng Prime Minister Liu Bei and Pinglu Colonel Lu Bu. The Qing family came to mediate on my behalf. State affairs are the most important thing and do not act out of emotion."
Judging from Tao Qian's memorial, Liu Bei and Lu Bu had a conflict while chasing Ji Ling and Ju Yi, and almost had a fight.
When Fu Wan heard this, his tense face relaxed slightly, as if he didn't mean to 'clean up' him.
"Your Majesty, King Bohai and Tingwei Zhong Yao would like to see you." At this time, Pan Yin stood at the door and said.
Liu Bian hummed and said, "Xuan."
Fu Wan and Princess Yang'an looked at each other, saluted silently, stood up and stood aside.
Liu Xie and Zhong Yao came in one after another. They caught a glimpse of Fu Wan and Princess Yang'an, with different expressions. They raised their hands and saluted, "I will see you, Your Majesty."
Liu Bian looked at the two of them and said calmly: "Without courtesy, please sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The four people sat down in order.
Liu Bian picked up the teapot, poured tea for Liu Xie, and said, "Have you been to Tingwei's Mansion?"
Liu Xie looked at the tea cup in Liu Bian's hand, his face tightened secretly, and he said, "Yes. Zhong Tingwei is wise and capable, and he handles things attentively. Tingwei's house is in good order, and I admire him very much."
Zhong Yao said nothing, but leaned forward slightly.
Liu Bian reached out to pour tea for Zhong Yao and said, "I intend to give lectures every three days in Shizhonglu. The emperor's brother and Zhong Qing's family will be present."
Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, Shi Zhonglu? Lecture?
Zhong Yao had known for a long time that "Lectures on Scripture" was just a name, but in essence it was to avoid the clutter of the ministerial office.
Xun Yu?
Zhong Yao was thinking in his heart, and he could also see that His Majesty in front of him seemed to pay special attention to Xun Yu, who had just arrived in Beijing, and even opened the Shizhonglu.
Liu Bian looked at the faces of several people, looked solemn, and said: "I have issued an order to Fu Qing's family, ordering him to go to Peixian County on my behalf, urge Dong Zhuo to advance, coordinate the troops of Jing, Xu, and Henan to eliminate them as soon as possible. Yuan Shu rebelled!"
Seeing that Liu Bian finally relented, Zhong Yao quickly raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Fu Wan was still unwilling in his heart, but now that Liu Bian had finished talking, he could no longer refuse.
Liu Xie glanced at Bu Qihou, who was about to become his father-in-law, and felt uneasy, thinking about the purpose of Liu Bian's arrangement.
Liu Bian picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said casually: "I heard that the Sanqiang and Montenegrin troops are ready to make another move?"
Winter has passed and the summer harvest is around the corner. The Qiang and Montenegrin troops, who are not engaged in production or have suffered serious losses in the winter, are preparing to go out to plunder again.
Zhong Yao immediately said: "Your Majesty, I request permission to go to Sanqiang again."
Liu Bian looked at him, nodded and said: "I order Zhao Yun to lead three thousand imperial troops to protect the Qing family, and then give the Qing family the power to control the Hanzhong prefect. If necessary, I will kill them with vigor!"
Today is different from the past. Liu Bian has a large army and many powerful generals, and he no longer has to worry about so much.
Zhong Yao looked solemn, raised his hand and said: "I accept the order!"
Liu Bian stretched out his hand, offered tea to Zhong Yao, and said, "What do the Qing family think of the Black Mountain Army?"
Zhong Yao frowned, thinking.
The Black Mountain Army is just a general term for a group of rebels who are scattered and gathered together. There are hundreds of them, large and small. With Zhang Yan as the leader, they are entrenched in some places where the court's control is weak, such as high mountains, old forests and black waters. There are millions of bandits and civilians.
If there is an ordinary banditry, it is enough to send troops to suppress it. However, these people are scattered and fortified in mountains and forests, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. If the court wants to suppress it, it will require at least 100,000 troops, and it may take several years!
The imperial court has military strength, but the military pay and food cannot support it!
After thinking again and again, Zhong Yao raised his hand again and said: "Please go to the Black Mountain Army again and recruit Zhang Yan and others!"
Liu Bian shook his head and said: "I have already surrendered. I will consider whether I should give you a small punishment or a big warning."
During the reign of Emperor Ling, in order to concentrate on dealing with the Yellow Turban Army, the imperial court distributed a large number of official positions to the Black Mountain Army after they surrendered, and assigned many places to the Black Mountain Army by default, making them an independent force.
Zhong Yao instantly understood what Liu Bian meant, and mused: "Your Majesty, the Liu Shijun of Youzhou is short of troops and horses, and he still has to defend Xianbei and Wuhuan. The Yingshijun of Jizhou is not yet stable and is still quelling the chaos. The Lu Shijun of Bingzhou You are committed to reform and are unable to send troops. If you want to punish the Black Mountain Army, the imperial court must send troops...at least until after the summer harvest."
After the summer harvest, the court had money and food.
Liu Bian's eyes showed he was thinking, but in fact, the little money Xia collected was just a drop in the bucket.
Liu Xie observed Liu Bian's expression, then remembered Zhong Yao's words, his face tightened, and he raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, please go to Yuzhou to supervise the war and share your worries for your Majesty."
Zhong Yao's expression changed immediately when he heard this, and then he frowned and stared at Liu Bian closely.
Liu Bian smiled nonchalantly and said, "I'm very happy that you have such a heart. It's just Yuan Shu, and my brother doesn't need to come forward. It's too flattering for him. You concentrate on the chancellery, read more and learn more." , I will share my worries in the future."
Seeing what Liu Bian said, Liu Xie felt half of his nervousness relieved. He put down his hand and said, "My brother, I accept the order."
Zhong Yao's face relaxed, and the objections he prepared disappeared.
He was really afraid that His Majesty the Emperor, who never acted according to common sense, would really agree to Liu Xie!
"About the Montenegrin Army,"
Liu Bian thought about it again and again and said, "I'll think about it again."
For the Montenegrin Army, he was waiting for an opportunity.
Seeing this, Zhong Yao paused and bowed: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister and the Prince have been quarreling over government affairs recently."
Liu Bian nodded. The reason why Wang Yun was angry was not only the suppression of the rebellion, but also Xun Yu's entry into Beijing.
Wang Yun was deeply wary of the "Yingchuan Party" and could not do anything, so he vented his anger on the useless Prime Minister Yang Biao.
Liu Bian suddenly looked at Liu Xie and said with a smile: "Brother Emperor, when you are at the Chancellery, you should do more to persuade him to make peace."
Liu Xie blinked and said hesitantly: "Brother, are you going to persuade me to make peace?"
Liu Bian said: "Yes, you are the most suitable. In a few days, you will hold a banquet for them and ask them to put aside their differences and put state affairs first."
Liu Xie was startled, and he still held a banquet?
Liu Bian glanced at Fu Wan and Princess Yang'an, and said, "Brother, take them to meet their grandmother and finalize the marriage as soon as possible."
Liu Xie also glanced at the two of them, endured his uneasiness, stood up and said, "Yes. My brother, please leave."
After laying down, Princess Yang'an raised her hands at the same time and followed Liu Xie out of Liu Bian's study with different thoughts.
After the three of them left, Zhong Yao turned his eyes to Liu Bian's face and said, "Your Majesty, someone recommended He Xian to be the Prime Minister of Luoyang."
"How salty?"
Liu Bian looked puzzled, then suddenly remembered and said quickly: "Okay."
He Xian, the son of He Jin.
After He Jin "entered the palace and complained of illness," the general's palace was sealed, and "after he became an official," the officials and their families were dismissed.
In "Cutting Redundant Officials", Wang Yun and others deliberately targeted not only the "Yingchuan Party", but also the eunuch party and the foreign relatives' party. Li Ru even found a lot of evidence of He Xian's crimes, and also took into account Liu Bian and He Xian. Queen Mother, so He Xian was immediately dismissed from office and left idle.
To be honest, Liu Bian basically didn't remember this person, that is, He Xian gave birth to a child not long ago, and Queen Mother He was happy and mentioned it to him.
Zhong Yao didn't know the reason. When he saw Liu Bian's permission for He Xian to become an official, he understood in his heart. He raised his hand and said, "I accept the order and retire."
After he exited, Liu Bian thought for a while, called Pan Yin over, and whispered in his ear for a while.
Pan Yin waited for Liu Bian to finish, then bowed and said, "Yes. I will go and deliver the message right now."
Liu Bian hummed and sat silently for a moment. He turned to look at the map hanging beside him, stared at Yuzhou, his eyes flickered slightly, and said to himself: "It's time."
A few days later, Yuan Shu camped outside Peixian County.
Tian Feng, Yuan Huan, Xu You, Gao Lan, Zhang He and others were present, all looking at Yuan Shu above with happy faces.
Yuan Shu Yingwu also had a smile on his face, full of ambition.
Guo Tu raised his hand to Yuan Shu and said, "My lord, these letters from the old thief Dong are everywhere in Luoyang. The little emperor may not be able to sit still."
Yuan Huan hurriedly followed: "My lord is wise, this plan couldn't be better. I heard that there was a huge outcry in Luoyang City to impeach the old traitor, and the little emperor has already gone into hiding. It won't be long before there is bound to be good news in Peixian County. Come on!"
Dong Zhuo rebelled, and the city of Luoyang was boiling with shouts of killing. When the news reached Pei County, Dong Zhuo must have been frightened and the morale of the army was in chaos.
Xu You hid his merit and fame, and sat calmly, squinting his eyes. The pride in his eyes was telling everyone - I was the one who came up with this plan!
Tian Feng's face was expressionless, and he was very worried.
Dong Zhuo was alienated from the court. Whether Dong Zhuo was executed by the court or Dong Zhuo jumped over the wall in a hurry, it was good news for Yuan Shu!
Yuan Shu sat upright, waiting for everyone's cheerful words to fall, and said in a deep voice: "Ziyuan, you write a letter to the old thief Dong on my behalf, saying that he is willing to surrender to me, and forgetting the past, Jizhou Mu is still his. If it is unknown, Shatter your body to pieces and destroy the nine tribes!"
Xu You raised his hand and said loudly: "My lord, I think I should send someone to Dong camp to show my sincerity."
Yuan Shu understood immediately and his eyes turned around on the faces of Tian Feng, Xu You, Yuan Huan and Guo Tu.
