Fantasy Three Kingdoms: Four knots in Taoyuan at the beginning

Chapter 304 Chapter 302, Am I Liu Bian's sub-father?

Since then, Chen Yuan has stabilized in Luoyang.

The general trend of the world is also advancing steadily in Chen Yuan's expectation, as the saying goes, time flies like water, and time flies like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the spring of the sixth year of Zhongping.

The emperor had been seriously ill a few months ago, so he rarely ascended to the palace to discuss matters.

Most of the time is lingering in the sick bed, even using the world's unimaginable means can't help, I can only watch the emperor fall into the abyss of death day by day.

The sons of heaven are basically like this, and there are very few long-lived ones.

Because no matter how high the emperor's cultivation base is, he can't bear the wear and tear of the world's dragon energy.

Yes, dragon energy has an impact on lifespan.

Of course, the degree of wear and tear is in proportion and is also related to the strength of the individual's body.

Those with strong bodies and high cultivation bases can also resist for a few more years.

Those who are weak in body may lose their braids soon.

Few of those emperors who lived for a long time could live for a long time, and most of them died very early.

Anyway, Emperor Hanling is dying.

And even now, Emperor Ling of Han has not appointed a minister to assist the government, which is a very dangerous thing.

Of course, perhaps in Emperor Hanling's opinion, there may be no need to appoint any auxiliary ministers, because Liu Bian's uncle is He Jin, and with He Jin, the uncle of the great general, as his assistant, it must be a sure succession to the throne.

It's just that Emperor Hanling still underestimated the people of the world after all, so that He Jin was killed shortly after his death.

Then the court fell into a chaotic situation with no one in charge of the overall situation.

Of course, it's not that no one is in charge of the overall situation, but that some people hope that this kind of chaos will appear.

Otherwise, Yuan Wei and Yang Biao, who were in the court at that time, stood up and shouted loudly, and they must have been followed by the responders. How could they not be in charge of the overall situation?

It's just that both of them have their own plans.

In the past few months, the situation in the DPRK and China has become more and more weird and unpredictable.

The Yang family was wiped out by Chen Yuan, so Yuan Kai is now respected in the court.

It's just that the Yuan family had other thoughts, so they let the situation in the court develop without giving play to the role of the three princes.

However, Chen Yuan didn't care about these things.

Chen Yuan didn't care at all about the development of the North Korea-China situation, as long as it didn't affect Dong Zhuo's entry to Beijing.

But there is one thing, Chen Yuan wants to occupy all the important passes around Luoyang now.

Luoyang is known as the "City of Eight Passes". The so-called "Eight Passes" refer to Hangu Pass, Yique Pass, Guangcheng Pass, Taigu Pass, Yuan Pass, Xuanmen Pass, Mengjin Pass and Xiaopingjin Pass.

As the "first gateway" from Luoyang to the west, Hangu Pass refers to Luodu in the east and Chang'an in the west.

Yiqueguan is the southern gate of Luoyang and has always been a battleground for military strategists.

Guangcheng Pass has been an important channel for Wan (Nanyang) Xiang (Xiangyang) and Jingchu areas to enter Luojing since ancient times.

Daguguan is an important gateway from Luoyang to Nanyang, Ruzhou, Xuchang and other places.

Shenyuanguan was established in the first year of Zhongping, located in Shenyuan Mountain, guarding the southeast gate of Luoyang.

Xuanmen Pass is located in the ancient city of Chenggao, which is another name for Hulao Pass.

Mengjin Pass is named for guarding the Mengjin Ferry of the ancient Yellow River. Mengjin Pass is adjacent to the Yellow River in the north and Mangling Mountain in the south. It is supported by mountains and rivers, and the pass is easy to hold.

Xiaopingjin Pass guards the Yellow River together with Mengjin Pass and guards the northern gate of Luoyang.

These eight passes are the most critical places to guard the entire Luoyang, and Chen Yuan wants to get them.

And if you want to get it in your hand in a legitimate way, you have to get the captain of Baguan.

The Baguan Duwei was newly established because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and it didn't last long. It corresponds to the Xiyuan Baxiaowei.

The eight school lieutenants were set up to defend Luoyang City, with the focus on Luoyang City.

The captain of the Eight Passes is the focus on the eight passes outside Luoyang City.

The focus is different.

Chen Yuan directly gave up on the eight captains.

Because if you have something, you have to give it up.

Moreover, the eighth school lieutenant was not very cost-effective. Chen Yuan had already managed to control the fifth school of the Northern Army, so the eighth school lieutenant was no longer necessary.

The captain of Baguan is different. This is the channel connecting Luoyang with the surrounding area, which is extremely important.

As long as the captain of Baguan can be in his hands, the situation in Luoyang will be in his hands.

It's just that the captains of the Eight Passes also belong to the Central Army, and they are all under the jurisdiction of He Jin, so it's not so easy to intervene.

Fortunately, Chen Yuan fought with He Miao in Nanyang. Although He Jin seemed very angry at Chen Yuan's behavior of not giving the He family face, he repeatedly threatened revenge on many occasions.

In fact, there was a lot of thunder and little rain.

Over time, most people understand it.

He Jin didn't care about He Miao at all, maybe he was very grateful to Chen Yuan.

Yes, He Jin actually has a very good impression of Chen Yuan.

Because he taught He Miao a lesson.

In fact, he doesn't like to see his brother who is neither father nor mother.

There is no blood relationship between the two, let alone any relationship.

He Jin pretended to take care of He Miao, but he just didn't want others to gossip, especially taking care of his sister's emotions.

For his queen sister, He Jin loves and fears at the same time.

Because Empress He really has some tricks, otherwise she wouldn't have achieved the position of Empress.

It was because of this reason that Chen Yuan secretly befriended General He Jin, and successfully placed the position of Captain of the Eight Passes with one of his own.

Who are the current captains of the Eight Passes?

Wei Yan, Wenpin, Jiang Qin, Chen Dao, Fu Xun, Zhou Cang, Hu Du, Huo Du.

This person may not be familiar with Hu Du and Huo Du.

Hu Du was actually Ma Zhong of the Shu Kingdom in history. This man had the talent of a general, and later he became the governor of the Shu Kingdom and managed the entire Nanzhong.

Huo Du?
In fact, this person died very early in history, and the cause of death is unknown.

The reason why he can still leave a fortune is all due to his younger brother Huo Jun.

Huo Jun's greatest achievement is defending the city.

Liu Zhang led Fu Jin and Xiang Cun to lead more than ten thousand people from Langshui to besiege Huo Jun. There were only a few hundred soldiers in the city. Huo Jun held on for a year, waiting for an opportunity to defeat him.

300 people defended the city, facing the attack of 1 people, they defended for a year and defeated the enemy.

It can only be said that it is very awesome.

Huo Jun is very strong, but Huo Du is actually not weak.

Especially after Chen Yuan interviewed this person, he was even more convinced that Huo Jun learned all his skills from his brother.

Therefore, Chen Yuan transferred Hu Du and Huo Du to key positions.

Now the eight passes around Luoyang are all controlled by Chen Yuan.

In this way, Chen Yuan was sure that at the critical moment, blocking Luoyang and cutting off the inside and outside would not only make it easier for the Jingzhou army to enter the capital, but also cut off Fatty Dong's retreat.

At Dongguan, Chen Yuan is also ready. In a critical moment, Chen Yuan will use the people from Jiantiantai to guard Dongguan.

What's more, there are experts in Jinfengwei and Dongguan.

Guo Jia, Lu Su, Zhuge Jin and Zhou Yu were all brought to Luoyang by Chen Yuan.

One reason is that these four people are getting older, and the other reason is that they came to Dongguan to increase their knowledge.

Although Xiangyang Academy is also working hard to increase its own background and collection of books, it is still much worse than Dongguan.

So it is inevitable to come to Dongguan to study.

Chen Yuan, who was the Taixue's sacrificial wine, let a few people enter the east view, and Emperor Han Ling didn't care.

What's more, the current Han Lingdi didn't care about these things anymore.

Therefore, the current East View has basically been taken over by Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan rarely went to Taixue, and spent most of his time in Dongguan.

Chen Yuan had already planned to build Dongguan into the largest library in the world, and to become the center and crystallization of the entire Han civilization.

To put it bluntly, it is the National Library.

In Luoyang, there are two places that Chen Yuan cares most about, one is Dongguan and the other is Taixue.

If these two places are preserved, the hundreds of years of civilization of the Han Dynasty will be preserved. As for other gold, silver and treasures, it is not important.

For Chen Yuan, everything is ready now, and he only owes Dongfeng.

What is Dongfeng?
That is the death of the emperor.

Chen Yuan calculated the time, and it didn't take long.

It was May 23th when Emperor Han Ling died, and now it is March [-]rd.

It's less than two months away.

Soon, soon.

In the following period of time, signs between heaven and earth began to appear.

This world is a fantasy world, and the signs are even more obvious.

First, the Ziwei star began to dim, then Yinghuo Shouxin, then the superstar fell to the ground, and then someone discovered the floating corpse of the yellow dragon, etc. All kinds of visions are not limited to one end.

All this indicates that the life of the Son of Heaven is not long.

All knowledgeable people in the world have realized this.

Everyone was waiting for that moment, the moment when the Son of Heaven died.

Countless careerists are excited.

The loyal ministers were worried.

It's really because the prince is still young now, once the emperor collapses, the government will be controlled by his relatives and eunuchs.

This is what these loyal ministers do not want to see.

However, they have nothing to do now.

Of course, Emperor Han Ling was not unprepared.

On this day, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty called Chen Yuan into the palace for an audience.

Chen Yuan hadn't seen Emperor Han Ling for a long time, and when he saw him now, he was immediately surprised.

Because Emperor Han Ling was already so skinny that he couldn't even sit still, and was half lying on the emperor's couch.

His cheekbones were high and his face was pale. From that look, it seemed that the next moment was about to pass.

Chen Yuan hurriedly paid homage to Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.

At this time, Emperor Han Ling was the most sensitive, but he must not be offended. No one knew what incredible things a dying person would do.

Fortunately, Emperor Han Ling didn't go crazy, he weakly raised his hand to let Chen Yuan stand up, and gave Chen Yuan a seat.

After Chen Yuan thanked him, he sat down.

This era is not the future, and courtiers have complete personality and dignity in front of the king.

It's not like the ghost that the king wants the minister to die and the minister has to die.

The monarchs and ministers of the Han Dynasty are actually more like collaborators.

Otherwise, there would be no such thing as Huo Guang abolishing the emperor.

Look at future generations, who among the ministers would dare to abolish the emperor?

Unless it's the kind of rebellion.

Huo Guang abolished the emperor, but he had no intention of rebelling at all.

He just wanted to choose a good partner.

Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty was a good collaborator.

Huo Guang's vision is actually very good, and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty is indeed a good collaborator.

And with a broad mind, if the Huo family didn't do too much later, maybe they would have a good death.

It's a pity that the Huo family, except for Huo Guang, is incompetent, not very capable, has a good temper, is arrogant and domineering, and the most important thing is that they actually teased Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty. In the end, Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty could not be exterminated.

Who is Ni Lin of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty?

It is Queen Xu's mother and son.

Xu Pingjun is the wife of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty loves this wife very much.

Otherwise, there would be no allusion of Nanyuan's legacy, so the sword is deeply affectionate.

The Huo family tried to kill themselves, and there was nothing they could do.

Seeing Chen Yuan sitting down, Emperor Han Ling looked at it, raised his finger and pointed forward, signaling Chen Yuan to sit closer.

This move fully illustrates a problem, the emperor's life is not long.

Because it was too far away, the voice of the Son of Heaven could not be transmitted.

Chen Yuan pondered in his heart and sat in front of the emperor.

Han Lingdi looked at Chen Yuan, and suddenly said: "Sir, can I trust you?"

Chen Yuan felt a thrill in his heart.

My good fellow, but when the emperor utters these words, probably nothing good will happen.

Because this is the emperor testing his courtiers.

Can I trust you?

There is actually still distrust.

As for whether you can believe it in the end, it depends on your performance.

Chen Yuan hurriedly got up: "Your Majesty, why did you say that? There is no courtier in the world who the emperor can't trust. Your Majesty must understand this truth."

Chen Yuan couldn't speak too clearly.

In fact, Chen Yuan's words mean that as long as His Majesty trusts me, I will definitely live up to your entrustment.

If you don't trust me, then I have nothing more to say.

Emperor Han Ling seemed to understand what Chen Yuan meant, and fell silent for a while.

"Sir, do you think I have ever treated you badly?"

These words made Chen Yuan silent.

To be honest, Emperor Han Ling was really okay with Chen Yuan.

All things considered, it makes sense.

After all, the titles are sealed.

What about the Marquis of Liangxiang?

This can be regarded as the deep kindness of Jun.

Chen Yuan cupped his hands to Emperor Ling of Han and said, "Your Majesty's kindness to you is comparable to mountains and seas."

Chen Yuan's words were not completely flattering, there was some truth in it.

Emperor Han Ling seemed to feel Chen Yuan's true feelings.

After hesitating for a while, he said a word: "Sir, I want the crown prince to worship you as his teacher and respect you as his father. I don't know if you are willing, sir?"

Good guy, good guy!
Sure enough, it's not a good thing.

Chen Yuan knew that there was definitely a big hole waiting for him.

This pit is too big.

Don't say that I don't want to be the sub-father. Except for Jiang Taigong, no one who became the emperor's sub-father has a good death.

Think about Fan Zeng.

Think about Lao Ai again.

Furthermore, even if I become the sub-father, I will be the sub-father for Liu Bei's future son. What's the matter with being the sub-father for Liu Bian?

While Chen Yuan was surprised, he had to admire Han Lingdi.

As expected of a wise emperor, this guy already understood the trend of the world.

Maybe even Chen Yuan's thoughts and even Jingzhou's thoughts can be seen.

Therefore, he took this move and directly hit Chen Yuan's seven inches above.

It depends on how Chen Yuan accepts the move.
