I received my adopted son in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 356 Stop acting, everyone is gone
When this good thing happened on the way back to Luoyang, Old Dong postponed his trip to Yecheng.

After all, when the letter arrived in Yecheng, His Majesty Yan did not issue any edict.Han Fu was so happy that he tried his best to help the court take over Jizhou.

As for the guys who delivered the decree, of course they will be escorted back to Luoyang for trial.

The result of the review is that they are the secret work of Yuan Ni, who deliberately framed and provoked the relationship between the court and Han Fu.After learning of this result, Han Fu not only helped to take over Jizhou, but also strongly urged Xiangguo to crusade against Yuan Ni.

As for those few "fine works", they were naturally sentenced to "Ming Zhengdian punishment, Qiuhou Wenqiu".It's just that in autumn, Han Fu and the others will forget about it.

Unless, his brain was kicked by a donkey, and he insisted on finding trouble for nothing.

"In this way, the old man's top priority is how to cripple Yan Pu and let Zhang Lu hand over Hanzhong?"

The thinking is very clear, the solution. Naturally, I don't have to worry about it.

There was information from the Embroidered Clothes Envoy who rushed to explore, and there were a lot of foxes offering advice.Although Yan Pu was well-known in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, Old Dong did not believe that he could defeat such an offensive.

Finally, two days later, Yan Pu arrived as scheduled.

He was very surprised why the emperor was in Xiangguo's mansion, but he still calmly saluted. See: "Chen Yanpu pays homage to Your Majesty, Xiangguo."

Old Dong didn't speak, but just glanced at Liu Xie.

Liu Xie laughed and said, "A minister is one who obeys the order of the emperor to serve the people. How come I don't know that there is such a minister as you?"

Yan Pu frowned slightly, momentarily at a loss for words: Liu Xie was not wrong, strictly speaking, he was not a courtier of the Han Dynasty.

If it is said that Zhang Lu was justifiably obedient to Hanchen by Liu Yanbiao as the governor and Sima before, but then he and another Sima Zhang Xiu attacked and killed Su Gu, the prefect of Hanzhong, which was a rebellion.

It's okay to cause chaos, Zhang Lu then killed Zhang Xiu, separated Hanzhong, and became a traitor of the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop.Moreover, Zhang Lu did not claim to be the prefect of Hanzhong, but adopted a political system of rule and called himself a "department teacher".

Zhang Lu is already a traitor, so Yan Pu, a hero, can only be regarded as a traitor.

In desperation, Yan Pu had no choice but to bow down again: "Your Majesty, I believe that Lu benefited from Liu Yan, the governor of the state, so he had no choice but to make trouble. Now Liu Yan has acted arrogantly in Yizhou. My lord knows his intentions and decided to reconsider Return to the Han Dynasty, and send ministers to come to serve, hoping for His Majesty's approval."

"En." Old Dong nodded and said: "I also heard that last year some people saw a jade seal in the field, saying that Zhang Lu should be the king of Hanzhong."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but began to complain: "Speaking of which, if you people die, you can't have something new? Han Fu and Yuan Ni also picked up the jade seal before, and you also came here to co-author the seal. They are not artificially carved, they all grow out of the soil?"

The complaint was so sharp that Yan Pu was so embarrassed that he had nothing to say.

"Fortunately, Yan Gongcao still had foresight. He advised Zhang Lu not to commit suicide. He also said that Hanzhong has a population of [-] households, rich in wealth, fertile land, and surrounded by high mountains."

"In such a dangerous and rich place, you can assist the emperor at the top, and you can follow the example of Dou Rong to appoint officials. There is no need to cause trouble. Zhang Lu listened to his advice, so he did not become king."

Now, Yan Pu has nothing to say.

On the one hand, Old Dong insinuated Zhang Lu's disobedience, and on the other hand, he showed that the imperial court penetrated Hanzhong like a sieve, using both soft and hard methods, which instantly put him at a disadvantage.

In desperation again, Yan Pu could only play the geography card: "It's really a blessing for the country to help the Han Dynasty. However, Kyushu collapsed, and it will eventually be unified before the king can be restored."

"Hanzhong is the main route from Guanzhong to Shu. My lord has been looking forward to the Han Dynasty for a long time. Now is the time to welcome the heavenly army and return to unification."

"This is a court decision."

Before Yan Pu could finish speaking, Old Dong interrupted with a wave of his hand, and then calmly changed the subject: "Let me wait and talk about how Zhang Lu wants to belong to the Han Dynasty."

"This?." After being sent to the army, Yan Pu felt a little overwhelmed: after all, before he came, his mission was to obtain the support of the old Dong, and he had no plans to join him.

But the negotiation was only for a while, and he had already completely retreated.

"Xiangguo, Liu Yan's son traps and kills our lord's mother, and is a reckless disregard for human life."

Yan Pu still wanted to struggle, but the old Dong said with one sentence: "Yan Gongcao, are you really planning to talk about this topic? The old man actually wants to know how Zhang Lu's mother appeared in the Yizhou Mufu."

"Xiangguo!" Yan Pu, who couldn't bear it any longer, immediately said, "Could it be that the Han Dynasty doesn't want to recover Yizhou, and the Han Dynasty should be unified again?"

The more anxious he was, the more relaxed the old Dong was, and said: "What did Yan Gongcao say? Yizhou has always been the Yizhou of the Han Dynasty, but Hanzhong is the place that the court needs to recover, right?"

Said, slightly waved his hand.

Outside the hall, General Liu Fan of Zuo Zhonglang approached and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Lu, a traitor of Xiangguo, does not obey the emperor's order, but takes possession of Hanzhong to support himself. When I arrive in Yizhou, I will lead the army to fight against him!"

Zuo Zhonglang general Liu Fan, the eldest son of Liu Yan.

During the time he stayed in Luoyang, he heard that his two younger brothers were sent back to Yizhou by the old Dong, and he felt as uncomfortable as a cat scratching.

At this time, not to mention that Old Dong asked him to go to the court to express his opinion, even if he was fighting against Yan Pu naked on the spot, he would use his well-developed Wang Baquan.Not only will they play well, but they will also play beautifully.

Yan Pu was anxious when he saw this, and he also saw that Old Dong had already set up his posture.

But the problem is that Lao Dong's here is a conspiracy, and it's useless to see through it: either show sincerity and sincerely belong to the Han family, and maybe he can avenge the murder of his mother, but Hanzhong and Wudou Mijiao can't keep it.

Or it would be even worse, after Old Dong finished cleaning up Eryuan, he would attack Hanzhong with the Liu family in the north and south.At that time, not only will Hanzhong not be able to keep it, but it will also leave a lifetime of infamy and be nailed to the traitor's rack of shame, which cannot be picked off.
"Your Majesty, Xiangguo, this is a big matter, and I still need to report to the lord before we can discuss the details. I implore Your Majesty, Xiangguo, to be tolerant for a while, and the minister will surely satisfy the court."

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Yan Pu was about to retreat, so he waited for a while before speaking.

At this moment, the order came to the hall and said: "Your Majesty, Xiangguo, Di Dao has a good news, and the guardian of the Qiang Zhonglang, Ma Teng, has gathered with the leaders of the Qiang and Hu to break through Jincheng."

"Han Sui fled in a hurry overnight, but was captured by Yan Xing who accompanied him, and is now on his way to Luoyang."

"Ma Tengzheng, General of the Protector of the Qiang, led his troops to recover Wuwei and Zhangye counties, and will soon recover Jiuquan and Dunhuang. I would like to ask the imperial court whether to re-establish the Western Regions Protectorate."

Old Dong heard the words, and Liu Xie looked at each other.

Knowing that the old Dong was testing himself, Liu Xie said immediately: "The imperial edict rewards Ma Teng, the general of the Qiang Zhonglang, and seals him as Marquis of Guannei. Help the Qianghu tribe in the Han Dynasty. Rewards for meritorious deeds."

"As for the Protectorate of the Western Regions, the imperial court will naturally reopen it to facilitate the smooth flow of trade routes. However, this is a big matter, and many details need to be investigated and discussed before a decision can be made."

Yan Pu was shocked again when he heard the words.

The news of Ma Teng's pacification of Liangzhou seems to have little to do with Hanzhong, but in fact it has a lot to do with it: First, it means that there is no more war in the northwest of the Han Dynasty, and all energy can be used in the southwest.

Second, after Ma Teng broke Jincheng County, the Han army lost the threat of Han Sui, and they could go directly to Shu County from Qishan Road in the west of Qinling Mountains.

Although this western road is far away, the terrain is relatively flat, which is conducive to the movement of the large corps and the transportation of supplies.However, after the Han army experienced the cultivation of the old Dong Anmin's New Deal, its ability to transport and mobilize food and grass was extremely terrifying.

At that time, the Han army will attack directly from Chencang, and the army will go around Longxi to Shujun to attack. Even without Liu Yan's help, Hanzhong can still be strangled in the mountains.

Naturally dangerous places have always been both an advantage and a biggest disadvantage.

Thinking of this, he immediately said again: "Your Majesty, Xiangguo, don't worry, I only need ten days to say goodbye, and only eight days will be enough to report back to my lord!"

"Well..." Old Dong still looked like an old god, and waved his hand: "Awei, take Yan Gongcao and others to the posthouse to rest."

"Here."

After Dian Wei left, Old Dong looked at the messenger and said, "Good job, who asked you to do this?"

The order was a little dumbfounded, and he reported with the Jie Jie: "Ma Teng, the Zhonglang who protects the Qiang."

"Everyone is gone, why are you acting with the old man?"

"Xiangguo, this isn't an act, it's real."

"What?." Old Dong was a little dazed at the time, and then he grinned happily: "Well done, the wedding gift that Ma Teng sent me this time is really good!"
