Cao Cao walked out of the Zhuque Gate and watched Yuan Shao get on the carriage, his narrow eyes flashing with coldness.
The grievances between Cao Cao and the Yuan family are very complicated, and he does not agree with Yuan Shao's comeback this time.
Guo Jia, who was wearing armor and holding a spear, took out the wine bottle from his waist, took a long sip, and waited for Cao Cao to come over and said, "It seems that I won't be able to see your majesty today."
Cao Cao mounted his horse and said, "Yuan Shu is sending troops to Jingzhou. Your Majesty probably won't send me off."
Guo Jia licked his lips and said: "It's not surprising. If Yuan Shu wants the righteous king to eliminate the thieves, Yangzhou will definitely not be enough. Yuzhou will not be able to go back for the time being. The civil strife in Jingzhou is simply fat meat on the lips. It would be strange not to eat it."
Cao Cao slapped his horse gently, with a solemn expression, and said in a cold voice: "Rebellious ministers and traitors will die sooner or later without a burial place!"
Guo Jia followed him and said: "General, I suspect that your Majesty is using this method to gradually take back the power that has been left behind."
Cao Cao was afraid that Guo Jia would not be able to keep up, so he quietly reined in his horse and walked slowly, saying: "It's not just you, there are also rumors in the court that your majesty is deliberately condoning Yuan Shu's rebellion."
Guo Jia drank his wine and looked back at the Zhuque Gate. A look of curiosity flashed across his arrogant face, and he muttered to himself, "What a pity."
Cao Cao knew that Guo Jia wanted to see Liu Bian, but let alone Guo Jia, even he could not meet whenever he wanted and could arrange whatever he wanted. He could only wait for the opportunity.
Cao Cao watched Yuan Shao's carriage go away and said with a solemn eyebrow: "Fengxiao, there is still one month left for the summer harvest. If you give Yuan Shu an extra month, it will be even more difficult to quell the chaos."
Guo Jia held the spear and felt that his shoulders were very sore. He handed it to the guard behind him, shook his head and said: "The hearts of the people are in the Han Dynasty. Yuan Shu's rebellion is out of ambition and out of necessity. Most of the people around him are like this. Although he can be tyrannical for a while, as long as the court exerts its strength, it will be peaceful." Destruction is only a matter of time. But the problem of the Han Dynasty is not Yuan Shu."
Cao Cao wanted to have a serious discussion with Guo Jia, but it was obviously not the right time. He suppressed his curiosity and looked at him and said, "Does Fengxiao have any other strategies for going to Qingzhou this time?"
Guo Jia looked in the direction of Qingzhou and said with a smile: "I told the general last night that I wanted to give him a big gift, but I have to wait until I get it."
Cao Cao was always worried about this 'big gift'. Seeing that Guo Jia was unwilling to say anything, he could only endure it.
At the same time, in Jingfu Hall, Liu Bian had just fallen asleep in the study. Pan Yin quietly came to the door, listened attentively, and then stepped back.
Xu Yan held a stack of memorials and whispered to Pan Yin: "Dear Changqiu, they are still waiting outside."
Pan Yin looked up and saw Yang Biao, Huangfu Song, and Wang Yun looking at this place. He said impatiently: "Your Majesty has not slept all night, and he has just fallen asleep. You know how angry your Majesty is when he wakes up. If you dare to shout , you go and shout."
How dare Xu Yan, holding a pile of memorials, unable to advance or retreat.
Pan Yin thought about it and walked towards the door not far away.
When Yang Biao saw Pan Yin approaching, he quickly said: "Dear Changqiu, your majesty summoned us?"
Pan Yin saw this group of big shots, and said with a smile: "Gentlemen, it's not the little guy who's stopping you, it's your Majesty who just went to bed. During this period, your Majesty has been up and down all night, and has never had a full night's sleep. The little guy really can't." Dare to disturb."
Wang Yun was extremely disgusted with eunuchs, and immediately snorted and said: "How can we disturb His Majesty for such a trivial matter? Let's go again!"
Pan Yin didn't show any anger at all, he still smiled and said: "Your Majesty, not long ago, a little Huangmen got a good thing and wanted to present it to His Majesty. He disturbed His Majesty when he was sleeping soundly. Your Majesty was angry and gave him a fifty-foot-tall beating. He almost die."
Wang Yun looked indifferent and said: "He came here with clever plunder. It is His Majesty's mercy that he will not die. It is about a traitor. How dare you stop such a big thing?"
Yang Biao, Huangfu Song, and Wang Yun didn't say anything. They had to see Liu Bian no matter what.
"come on!"
Suddenly, a loud shout came from not far away.
Pan Yin hurriedly turned around and saw Liu Bian standing at the door with disheveled hair. He was startled and trotted over.
When they arrived, seeing Liu Bian looking tired and his eyes bloodshot, Pan Yin said in a panic: "Your Majesty, they..."
Liu Bian waved his hand and said, "Get a basin of water."
Pan Yin responded, ordered Zhonghuangmen, stood behind Liu Bian, and combed Liu Bian's hair. At a glance, he saw Yang Biao, Wang Yun, Huangfu Song and others coming over.
Yang Biao came closer, looked at Liu Bian's expression, his fat face trembled, and said: "Your Majesty, Yuan Shu suddenly sent troops to Jingzhou and has now captured Jiangxia County."
The others said nothing and bowed with respectful expressions on their faces.
To say who is the most diligent in the whole Han Dynasty, it is His Majesty in front of me. I think it is another long night.
Liu Bian didn't say anything. He took the washbasin and put it on the floor. He picked up his hands and slapped it on his face. He rubbed it again and again. Finally he regained consciousness. He took the towel and wiped his face. Then he said, "Isn't this something we should have expected? ? Is there no one in the imperial court who has an overall view and is forward-looking?"
Yang Biao, Wang Yun and others lowered their heads unconsciously, showing "please plead guilty" on their faces.
They are trapped in the court situation, and they are too busy with what is in front of them. Where can they see further.
Liu Bian poured cold water on his neck and said calmly: "After Er Xun sent a letter to me, he wrote to me. Gongsun Zan is currently in Runan, and Lu Bu has stationed 10,000 troops in Guangling."
Wang Yun heard this and immediately said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not enough. With Cao Yin as an internal response, I'm afraid Wang Rui won't be able to stop Yuan Shu for long."
Wang Rui actually had little ability. It was widely rumored that he was bought from the eunuchs as the governor of Jingzhou.
Liu Bian glanced at him and snorted coldly: "Then tell me, what else can I do?"
Wang Yun's expression moved, and he raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, can you allocate 20,000 troops from the Forbidden Army camp, or order Tao Qian to send troops from Guangling, or from Yizhou..."
Yang Biao and Huangfu Song didn't wait for him to finish speaking and looked at him calmly.
Putting aside issues such as money and food, Tao Qian had no problem with the Forbidden Army Camp, but Liu Yan of Yizhou, how could he be given the opportunity to send troops to Jingzhou? ! If he occupied Jingzhou and did not retreat, would the imperial court still go to war with Yizhou?
Wang Yun seemed to be aware of the problem and quickly said, "Your Majesty, Sun Jian, the governor of Hanzhong, has written a letter requesting to lead troops to Jingzhou to quell the rebellion."
Liu Bian raised his head and glanced at the south, sneered, and said: "These monsters and monsters are about to appear. Do you think my big man is really at the point of subjugation?"
The expressions of Yang Biao, Wang Yun and Huangfu Song suddenly changed and they all bowed.
Such words, even if the emperor said them, are frightening!
After Liu Bian said this, he looked away and said calmly: "Yizhou cannot be moved, and Sun Jian cannot be moved either. In addition, I am considering replacing the state pastors of Yanzhou and Qingzhou, and the Shangshutai is preparing candidates. The six officials outside the palace and so on The construction is almost done, find a time to move out.”
Yang Biao saw that Liu Bian didn't care about Yuan Shu's invasion of Jingzhou. His fat face trembled and he glanced at Wang Yun out of the corner of his eye.
Wang Yun had just mentioned Yizhou. He was worried about offending Liu Bian, so he dared not speak again and glanced at Huangfu Song.
Huangfusong pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, should there be any response from Jiaozhi?"
Liu Bian felt sleepy and touched his neck with a cold towel again and said, "We can't hope for more. Order Xu Rong of Yanzhou to move his troops thirty miles to the direction of Yuzhou."
Huangfu Song understood immediately and said, "I accept the order."
Wang Yun also understood and said: "Your Majesty, Dong Zhuo has been pressing for money and food. I am afraid that Xu Rong is not enough to deter him."
Liu Bian calmly and confidently said, "He will understand what I mean."
Wang Yun didn't understand.
Yang Biao didn't understand either.
Huangfu Song, on the other hand, nodded thoughtfully and said, "Your Majesty, the Forbidden Army Camp..."
Liu Bian looked at him, blinked, and suddenly understood, he quickly turned to Pan Yin, and saw Zhao Yun and Dian Wei not far away, and shouted: "Get ready, I am going to the Forbidden Army camp."
Huangfu Jianchang is coming soon.
Pan Yin was stunned and whispered: "Your Majesty, would you like to take a rest?"
Liu Bian waved his hand, squatted down again, slapped cold water on his face, and then wiped a towel while saying: "Just take a moment to relax on the road, I will leave matters in Beijing to your family. By the way, Prime Minister, we will wait for you. I will go to the Censor’s Office to see how the preparations are going. The censors who should be sent out to patrol the city will be sent out, and the rest, such as the person who executed the case, will all be recalled."
Yang Biao was stunned. He didn't know why Liu Bian was so anxious to go to the Forbidden Army camp. He glanced at Huangfu Song, raised his hand and said, "I accept the order."
Liu Bian waved his hand and said nothing. He turned back to the room, changed his clothes, and hurried out of the palace with a group of people.
Sitting in the carriage, Liu Bian became more and more sleepy, his upper and lower eyelids were twitching, and he glanced at Zhao Yun beside him, and his headache became more and more severe.
The Han Dynasty seems to be full of talents, but in fact, those who can command armies on expeditions are still the "Three Heroes", and the others are still far behind.
However, among these three people, one was trapped in Bingzhou, one was in Da Sima Mansion, and the other was deeply trapped in Qingzhou.
"You still have to give them time..."
Liu Bian whispered to himself. Zhao Yun, who was in his early twenties, and Cao Cao, who was in his thirties, both looked green.
Immediately, Liu Bian thought of the gang in Jiangdong again, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
They are all ambitious people!
"I'll keep my eyes open for a while." After a long time, Liu Bian couldn't hold it any longer and said to the outside.
Pan Yin and others quickly responded in low voices, and the carriage moved more smoothly.
When Liu Bian rushed to the Forbidden Army camp, Huangfu Jianchang's speed was much faster than expected.
When they arrived at the gate of the Forbidden Army camp, Huangfu Jianchang sat on his horse and raised his hands with a long-bearded man: "Thank you Yunchang for escorting me all the way. I will get drunk another day before resting!"
The long-bearded man raised his hand and said in a deep and powerful voice: "Now that it has been delivered, Guan will go back and report to Brother Ming. Second Young Master, please say goodbye."
Huangfu Jian looked at his back reluctantly.
Although Guan Yunchang only brought five hundred people with him, on the road, one man charged into the formation and killed more than a hundred bandits and fled. His bravery was terrifying.
Shi A and Zhang Xiu also showed strange expressions. Such a character will definitely not remain unknown in the future!
Huangfu Jian waited until Guan Yu had gone far away, then he looked back and saw Huang Zhong leading people to greet him. He raised his hands with the other 500 people in front of him and said: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work. Each of you has a string. I, the Second Young Master, will never do it." Break your promise, spend the whole night eating and drinking in the Forbidden Army camp, and come back tomorrow!”
These people were borrowed by Huangfu Jianchang from Xu Rong.
"Thank you, Second Young Master!" Everyone was overjoyed.
I have stones in my body, and my back aches after sitting for a long time. Blue thin mushrooms.
