Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1044 Shu King Liu Ji
Chapter 1042: Shu King Liu Ji
In March of the second year of Chuping (191), Liu Ji, the prefect of Berkshire, became king in Berkshire, and the country name was "Shu".

Liu Ji, the prefect of Bajun, also became the king, and he was also called the king of Shu.

As soon as the news spread, there was a great uproar, and more questions followed.

First of all, although Dong Zhuo's canonization strategy has sealed all the princes in the world, there are not many princes who really dare to accept his canonization, and most of them have not ended well.

Wang Lang was almost wiped out by Sun Jian;
Liu He, completely betrayed all relatives, and even had to rely on Gongsun Zan to barely fight against Liu Che;

Huang Chao may be the only prince whose career development has become more and more prosperous after accepting the enfeoffment.

Since the risk of accepting enfeoffment is so great, why did Liu Ji become king at such a critical moment?
Secondly, because Liu Ji was the prefect of Bajun, the prince enfeoffed by Dong Zhuo was naturally the 'King of Ba', but what Liu Ji called was the 'King of Shu'.

The land of Shu is still in the hands of Liu Yu, but Liu Ji has not yet occupied the land of Shu, yet he dares to call himself the king of Shu. It can be seen that his ambition for the land of Shu has reached the point of undisguised, and he is not afraid of attracting Liu Yan's attention. crusade?
In the end, claiming the title of king without following the imperial edict is also tantamount to claiming the title of king without authorization, which is basically no different from rebellion.

As Liu Ji is a clan member of the Han family, and the situation is very good now, is it necessary to take such a big risk and forcefully become king?

All in all, no matter from which angle you look at the matter of Liu Ji becoming king, it reveals this kind of weirdness, which is really unpredictable.

But the news that followed shocked everyone.

The young emperor Liu Bian did not die at the hands of Dong Zhuo, but was rescued by Liu Ji in time, and Liu Bian verified Liu Ji's body and confirmed Liu Ji's true identity.

It turned out that Liu Ji was actually the eldest son of the first emperor, the half-brother of the young emperor Liu Bian and the young emperor Liu Tong.

This news shocked all the princes of the world. No one would have thought that Liu Hong, that stupid king, would secretly hide a son, and even paved the way for this son.

Liu Ji's imperial edict did not come from Dong Zhuo's imperial edict, but the edict left by the late emperor Liu Hong.

The imperial edict in Liu Ji's hands, which overshadowed the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, is naturally more legal than Dong Zhuo's edict. With his noble status as the eldest son of the first emperor, it is completely reasonable and reasonable for him to be called king. The princes can't fault it at all. .

However, although the other princes can't find any faults, it doesn't mean that Liu Yan will be indifferent. After all, the land of Shu is Liu Yan's territory, and Liu Ji dares to call the king of Shu before he occupies the land of Shu.

But later people found out that Liu Yan had already died of illness, and his son Liu Yu was beaten by a barbarian tribe leader named Zhu Rongchi (Chi You) just like his father Liu Yan after he succeeded to the throne. Festival defeat.

Liu Yu counted on Liu Ji to help him repel the barbarians, and it was too late to hug his thigh, so how could he completely turn against Liu Ji just because of a king name.

It was only at this time that people finally understood that Liu Ji became king because of the right time, place, and harmony of people, and he would not take any risks at all!

After reaching this conclusion, most of the princes felt a little sour in their hearts, and they were extremely envious and jealous of Liu Ji.

Who wouldn't want to be king, but the risk involved is too great, and if you are not careful, you will invite crusade from all directions.

But Liu Ji, relying on his background, and a foolish father, easily sat on the throne. How can other princes not be jealous, but they can't help each other at all.

In Zhuti County, Liu Yu's big tent.

"Liu Ji..."

Liu Yu's angry roar resounded throughout the tent.

Liu Yu, who has always been calm and calm, lost his composure because he was provoked by Liu Ji's act of calling him the king of Shu.

Liu Yu was a shepherd of Yizhou and the lord of Shu, but Liu Ji took away the title of King of Shu, which made Liu Yu not furious.

You, Liu Jiming, can be called the King of Ba, but you are still called the King of Shu. Don’t you know that the land of Shu is not yours yet?
Although Liu Ji made an excuse, saying that it was sealed by the first emperor in advance, in Liu Yu's view, Liu Ji did it on purpose.

Liu Ji didn't even bother to cover it up, thinking that sooner or later the land of Shu would be taken from him, so why not call him King of Shu in advance?

This was a great shame and humiliation to Liu Yu. It can be said that no matter how angry Liu Yu was, he couldn't do anything to Liu Ji at this time. After all, he still had to rely on Liu Ji to deal with Chi You, so Liu Yu had to bear it no matter how upset he was.

There was a cold light in Liu Yu's eyes, and he said with a sinister face, "Liu Ji, let's wait and see."

Luoyang.

After Qin Hao forced Li Xiuning to stay for a few days, Li Xiuning still saw the clues.

"Qin Hao, what are you hiding from me?" Li Xiuning asked.

Qin Hao smiled lightly and said, "You think too much."

"Then why don't you let me go?"

"Walk?"

Qin Hao's eyes became presumptuous, and he looked at Li Xiuning unscrupulously, and said with an evil smile: "Why did you let you go? You are my trophy!"

Li Xiuning blushed when she heard the words, she gave Qin Hao a hard look, then turned her head and left, but Qin Hao heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this.

"Well, it's a day if you can hide it for a day."

A trace of complexity flashed across Qin Hao's eyes, and he murmured to himself in a low voice: "If possible, I hope you will never know this bad news."

Although Li Xiuning was not Qin Hao's wife and concubine, the two of them were husband and wife after all, and Qin Hao couldn't bear to treat his own woman. He even wanted to compensate Li Xiuning, so he didn't kill Li Shimin until now.

Qin Hao is definitely not a soft-hearted person, but now he has become a bit of a woman, which makes Qin Hao feel a little strange, because this is not his style at all.

After much deliberation, Qin Hao couldn't think of the reason, but in the end, it could only be attributed to the fact that he had held back for too long this year, so that he easily showed his feelings for Li Xiuning.

"Qin Hao, in a few days, Wannian, Guiying, Qingyi and the others will arrive in Luoyang with their children, and then you will return to your original self." Qin Haozi said to himself in his heart.

After the battle of Nanxiang ended, the Detachment of Women immediately escorted Liu Xie, Jia Xu, and Qin Hao's family to Luoyang, and they would arrive in five or six days.

Qin Hao transferred the Detachment of Women Army to Luoyang, mainly to protect the Detachment of Women Army. After all, even he felt that it was cruel for women to go to the battlefield, but the whole Detachment of Women Army wanted to prove themselves.

In order to make these female soldiers feel that they are not underestimated, Qin Hao decided to let the Women's Army maintain the law and order in Luoyang and its surrounding areas, and in this way, [-] troops could be saved for other purposes.

In addition, it is more difficult to recruit female soldiers than male soldiers, and the Luoyang family was slaughtered not long ago, and the large number of women and children left behind can just become the source of soldiers for the Women's Army.
