Agents of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 302 Westbound Chang'an

Liu Xie is only ten years old so far, a ten-year-old child, even if he grew up in a court full of intrigues, his mental age is precocious, he is still a child after all, and has no possibility of holding power.Dong Zhuo is in charge of the government, and everything is under Dong Zhuo's control.Liu Xie's emperor's edict came out, it must be Dong Zhuo's order.

After Wang Lei figured it out, he ordered: "Send Guo Jia to call the members of Qilin Pavilion to the study."

"As ordered!"

Du Ji nodded in agreement, and quickly conveyed the order.

One after another, Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Xun Chen, Tian Feng and others entered the study one after another.

After all the personnel arrived, Wang Lei said straight to the point: "I just got the news that Dong Zhuo issued an edict in the name of the emperor to let me go to Chang'an. The envoy has entered Ye County and will arrive soon. The matter is very important, and it also involves the affairs of Jizhou Life and death, please speak freely and share your views?"

Tian Feng's face was stern, and he said without hesitation: "The humble official does not agree with the lord to go!"

Wang Lei asked, "What's the reason?"

Tian Feng was quick-witted and replied: "There are three reasons for being humble!"

"First, Dong Zhuo controls the court and controls the emperor. Although Dong Zhuo coerces the emperor to order the princes, everyone knows that Dong Zhuo controls the power. You go to Chang'an alone, which means that you have surrendered to Dong Zhuo. Before this, the lord personally participated in the crusade Dong Zhuo's war has already been known to the world, once he agrees, it will affect his reputation."

"Secondly, the lord is Jizhou Mu, who is responsible for the safety of Jizhou. If the lord goes to Chang'an, he will become a hostage, a fish on the chopping board, and be slaughtered by Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo can also control the lord, and then remotely control the development of Jizhou."

"Thirdly, the lord going to Chang'an may cause Cao Cao's suspicion, and Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan may also be ready to move. At that time, the situation in Jizhou will be turbulent, which will not be conducive to the development of Jizhou. If it is more serious, the internal officials of Jizhou may also be affected."

Tian Feng looked serious and said, "Reject Dong Zhuo's order and not go to Chang'an."

Jushou's eyes flickered, and he said slowly: "I agree with Yuan Hao's suggestion, I can't go to Chang'an. However, I can't directly refuse Dong Zhuo's order. This is a blatant confrontation with Dong Zhuo, and it is also against the emperor's edict. Han Fu is in charge of Jizhou. At that time, the eunuch Zhang Rang sent Zhang Cheng to contact Ye County, and Han Fu sent someone to intercept Zhang Cheng in order not to tear his face."

"Now, the emperor's envoy sent by Dong Zhuo is about to arrive. I think the same strategy can be adopted to intercept and kill the envoy who is about to arrive. In this way, even if we are reprimanded, we can still say that the thieves in Jizhou are rampant and have not broken their faces with Dong Zhuo. Even Dong Zhuo knew it well, so he could only be secretly annoyed, so that there would be no room for cooperation in the future."

Ju Shou looked serious and stood on Tian Feng's side.

Xun Chen nodded, and said, "I also agree with Yuan Hao's proposal. My lord's public security is more dangerous than the sky. My lord is here, but Jizhou is here; my lord is in danger, and Jizhou is in danger. My lord can't put myself in danger. I think Jushou's proposal is good."

Simpi rolled his eyes and said, "You can't catch tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's lair. Dong Zhuo asked the Lord to go to Chang'an by the order of the emperor. I think it's okay to take a trip. Chaos in Jizhou is not good for Dong Zhuo. He can't be bad for the Lord. On the contrary. , Dong Zhuo has to protect the safety of the lord everywhere, so there is no danger in this trip."

Ju Shou countered: "Yes, Dong Zhuo can't be unfavorable to the lord. The question is, if Dong Zhuo imprisoned the lord in Chang'an, what should he do?"

Simpi gasped and stopped talking.

After listening to the opinions expressed by everyone, Wang Lei looked calm and did not express his opinion in a hurry.

If you listen to both, you will be clear, and if you listen to one side, you will be dark. You can listen to more opinions.

"In my opinion, you can actually take a trip to Chang'an."

Suddenly, Jia Xu said.

After saying these words, Jushou, Tian Feng, Shenpei and others looked at Jia Xu in unison.Tian Feng and the examiner had sharp eyes, and they wanted to swallow Jia Xu.

Wang Lei's safety is related to the development of Jizhou, and no one can allow Wang Lei to make mistakes.

The best way is not to go to Chang'an.

Wang Lei said calmly: "We are talking freely, there is nothing we can't say. Mr. Wen He has any ideas, but it's okay to say! I will refer to it."

Jia Xu stroked his beard, and replied unhurriedly: "Jizhou needs a peaceful environment to develop steadily. Right now, Tai Shici is in the north to resist Gongsun Zan, and Zhang Jaw's army is stationed in the northeast, which is strong enough to resist Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan." .”

"Among them, Gongsun Zan occupied a part of Jizhou, but Liu Yu in Youzhou is still alive. Gongsun Zan's center of gravity is in Youzhou. As long as the matter in Youzhou is not completely resolved, Gongsun Zan will not go south for the time being."

"Yuan Shao waged wars continuously, food was in short supply, and the people were exhausted. If he wanted to start a war again, he had to develop it. According to my guess, it would take at least a year to recover. One year's time is enough to open Ping'en's body." The county's management is solid, blocking Yuan Shao is not a problem, so Yuan Shao is not a concern."

"East County Cao Cao's center of gravity is also in Yanzhou, so he won't pose a threat to Jizhou for the time being. Even if your lord goes to Chang'an, Cao Cao has to worry about it, and he has to find a way to protect you from being defeated by Yuan Shao and maintain the split situation in Jizhou."

"The rest is just Dong Zhuo."

"As Simpi said, Your Excellency went to Chang'an alone. Dong Zhuo would not have killed Your Excellency, and would keep His Excellency safe. More importantly, when Your Excellency went to Chang'an, many people regarded Your Excellency as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh. They will breathe a sigh of relief and relax their vigilance, because they think that Jizhou will be a tiger with its teeth pulled out without an adult."

Jia Xu's expression became more and more calm, and his words were well-founded: "On the contrary, if you stay in Jizhou, you will be in full swing. Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Dong Zhuo will all feel like they are on their backs, and they are very afraid. A trip to Chang'an will bring Jizhou's low-key development. , it’s actually a good deal.”

Guo Jia took Jia Xu's words and said: "My lord, going to Chang'an has great benefits. First, the rest of the princes will no longer be afraid of Jizhou, so that Jizhou can develop steadily and quietly is the kingly way; second, Chang'an has There are countless officials, such as Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Cai Yong, etc. If the lord has a relationship with these people, it will be of great benefit and can make more capital. As for the lord who wants to leave Chang'an, with the ability of adults, I am still worried. Is that a problem?"

After Wang Lei heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Similar to Hu Zhao's analysis, Jia Xu and Guo Jia also proposed to develop in a low-key manner, reduce the fear that Jizhou brings to people, and let Jizhou settle down.

When Wang Lei went to Chang'an, he just took his eyes away to cover the development of Jizhou.

Jushou said: "My lord, think twice!"

Wang Lei glanced at the people present, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wen He's suggestion and Feng Xiao's analysis are reasonable. Similarly, the analysis of Mr. Tian and Mr. Ju is also reasonable. But for the current Jizhou , it is most suitable for me to go to Chang'an... Anyway, I will go to Chang'an once and meet Dong Zhuo for a while."

Ju Shou, Tian Feng and the others sighed, but resigned themselves to their fate.

When the matter was settled, the officials quickly left to go about their own affairs.
