Chapter 100 Restoring the Prime Minister
Liu Bian looked at these big boxes and kept thinking.
The military salary is there, and the salaries of the officials and the disaster relief money after the peace of Yanzhou are still needed.
'Another big sum. '
Liu Bian let out a breath in his heart, as if he wanted to let out the urgent pressure in his heart.
Wang Yun was still thinking about Sili's appointment list, observing Liu Bian's expression, waiting for the opportunity to continue admonishing.
Pan Yin came back, with a few more playbooks in his hand, stepped forward to argue with Liu: "Your Majesty, Shangshutai, it was sent by the Da Sima Mansion."
Liu Bian glanced at him and opened the first door.
After a hasty sweep, he said with great joy: "Huangfuqing's family really lived up to my expectations!"
Liu Bian raised his head to Wang Yun, and said with a smile: "Yesterday, Huangfu Qing's family defeated the Yellow Turban bandits in Shanyang County and regained Yanzhou!"
There was not much joy on Wang Yun's face, but he said: "Your Majesty, I think that for the time being, we should not take it lightly. There are already over one million bandits in Qingzhou and Jizhou. The court is short of money and food, so we must be cautious."
Liu Bian, who was originally happy, held his breath inexplicably in his chest, looked away, opened the second channel, frowned slightly, and said to himself: "Black Mountain Army?"
The Black Mountain Army actually appeared near Yanzhou!
Liu Bian thought for a while, and opened the third channel. This is the memorabilia written by Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun.
Liu Bian didn't take it seriously, and looked at the last one. Just looking at it, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes were burning and flickering violently.
Seeing this, Wang Yun hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, what happened?"
Liu Bian thought quickly, and said casually, "The Xiongnu invaded Wuyuan."
Wang Yun turned pale with shock, and said, "Your Majesty, is Niu Fu in Wuyuan County?"
Liu Bian glanced at him and nodded silently.
Wang Yun lowered his head, frowning and thinking.
Wuyuan County, in the northernmost part of Bingzhou, has been harassed by the Huns over the years.
The key now is that Niu Fu is in Wuyuan County. If he colludes with the Xiongnu and becomes a leading party, the whole Bingzhou will be in danger!
Liu Bian thought about the situation in Bingzhou, then analyzed Luoyang, and then Yanzhou, and couldn't help feeling solemn.
This series of questions superimposed, he couldn't help but take his time.
"Where is Cao Cao?" Liu Bian looked at Pan Yin.
Pan Yin immediately said: "Should... we are almost in Hanoi."
Liu Bian had only Cao Cao's troops in his hands. After thinking about it, he said, "Then where is Sun Jian?"
Pan Yin said: "I played the report yesterday and just arrived in Nanyang."
Liu Bian considered it again and again, took a deep breath, and said, "Let him go to Hanzhong and take over as the prefect of Hanzhong. Order Cao Cao to go north to Hedong County immediately and be dispatched by Lu Zhi. When will Dong Zhuo arrive in Beijing?"
Pan Yin responded, estimated the time, and said, "There should be two more days."
Liu Bian patted the memorial into his arms, and said: "Declaration, Yang Biao, Xun You, Zhong Yao, go to the palace to discuss matters."
Wang Yun's heart skipped a beat, he had a premonition that something important was going to happen, he hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Your Majesty, what is this?"
Liu Bian was expressionless, and said: "The matter of Si Li is based on Xunqing's family's memorabilia, and there is no need to discuss it. Wang Qing's family should not say any more."
Facing Liu Bian's cold gaze, Wang Yun panicked and opened his mouth hesitantly, but seeing the warning in Liu Bian's eyes grew stronger, he hesitated to speak.
Liu Bian snorted coldly in his heart, turned to Shi A, and said, "Did you have something to say, or did Huangfu Jian have something to say?"
Shi A saw Liu Bian for the first time, but he didn't panic. He glanced at Wang Yun again and said, "Your Majesty, it's a villain. On the way back to Beijing, the villain heard many rumors that many heroes gathered together." Jizhou wants to plot big things."
Liu Bian remained expressionless, and the sense of urgency in his heart became heavier, and he said, "Use your relationship to find out."
Shi A raised his hand and said, "The villain understands."
Liu Bian didn't say any more, turned around and walked into the study.
He put the map on the table and examined it carefully.
"Qingzhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou, Sili, Yanzhou, Jizhou..."
Liu Bian looked indifferently, watching one by one.
The Yellow Turban Army in Qingzhou is the most prosperous, known as a million, and it is raging all over the place.Jizhou and Yanzhou are almost the same.Youzhou and Bingzhou are both internally and externally troubled, with both internal and external troubles.
And Sili is also not easy. Sanqiang only withdrew from Sanfu the year before last, and Yanzhou is right next to Sili, so don't be careless at all!
"The flames are raging..."
Liu Bian frowned and whispered to himself.
The entire north seems to be out of control. Although it seems to be still in the hands of the imperial court, the control power is very small. Only where there are soldiers can there be absolute control.
Pan Yin stood not far from Liu Bian, seeing his worried face, felt a little uncomfortable.
Liu Bian calculated carefully, and found that he seemed to have a lot of troops in his hands, but they were scattered all over the country, and there were very few that could be deployed freely.
"Stretched..."
Liu Bian's heart felt like a boulder, as long as one of the northern states collapsed, the consequences would be disastrous.
He thought about the various generals in his hand, and found that apart from the 'Three Heroes', there seemed to be few who could be completely trusted.
"Hold on, hold on, give me a little more time..." Liu Bian whispered to himself with burning eyes.
After an unknown amount of time, Pan Yin stepped forward lightly and said, "Your Majesty, everyone is outside."
Liu Bian's eyes were fixed, he still looked at the map, and said, "Let them all come in."
Pan Yin responded and gestured to the small yellow gate not far away.
Immediately, with Yang Biao as the leader, Wang Yun next, Xun You, and Zhong Yao entered the door one after another.
Liu Bian strode over, waved his hand, and said, "There's no need to be polite, sit down, you all know the situation, let's talk about it."
Liu Bian walked to his place, sat down on his knees, and looked at the four of them.
The four saluted, and after sitting down, they remained silent.
The appearance of the Black Mountain Army near Yanzhou shows that Jizhou and Youzhou are like no one's land to Heijinsha.The Xiongnu Kou Bian of Bingzhou sandwiched Niu Fu, Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, in between.
Yanzhou has not yet been completely calmed down, and the situation in Qingzhou is stalemate.
The entire north is full of endless wars, burning everywhere, stretching endlessly.
The situation is critical!
Yang Biao's left leg was wrapped tightly, leaning on a small crutch, and sat down extremely slowly, kneeling, leaning on the crutch, leaning his body, his head dripping with sweat, it was very hard work.
Wang Yun was usually reticent and kept quiet.
Xun You thought over and over again, and argued with Liu: "Your Majesty, Bingzhou... Niu Fu may be able to win, it depends on Dong Taiwei's attitude."
Liu Bian hummed, and said, "There are two days left to arrive in Beijing."
"About the Black Mountain Army,"
With a sullen face, Xun You said, "The main thing is to appease him, and we can't use troops against him for the time being."
Even if it can, the imperial court does not have any spare troops, so it can only rely on Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou.The Montenegrin army claims to be in the millions, and most of them are in the mountains and forests. If they want to encircle and suppress, it will take a long time, and the money and food will be exhausted.
The imperial court has no money and no food!
Liu Bian was silent.
Xun You paused, and continued: "Yanzhou, since Da Sima has been pacified, it shouldn't be a big problem, just need the imperial court's relief. Qingzhou also needs relief."
Liu Bian's eyes moved slightly, and then he nodded slightly.
Xun You's words are actually very simple. It is not difficult to defeat the Yellow Turbans or other rebellions. The key is that after they are settled down, they cannot be allowed to relapse, otherwise the court will have to continue to conquer, back and forth, endlessly.
The problem is still that the court has no money or food!
Zhong Yao raised his head and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, the matter of salt administration should start as soon as possible."
To be able to get money quickly and get enough money, there is no other way except for the salt administration.
Liu Bian didn't answer him, but said to Wang Yun, "Wang Qing's family, what do you think?"
Wang Yun raised his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the Si Li has not yet made a final decision. If you want to attack the Yan government again, your haste will waste your time. Why don't you increase the land tax for now."
Liu Bian frowned, looked directly at Yang Biao, and said, "Yang Qing's family?"
Yang Biao seemed to have gained a lot of weight, his face was rounder and fatter, his belly was sticking out, his left arm was crutched, he raised his hand with some difficulty, and said, "Your Majesty, on behalf of the Yang family, I would like to donate [-] yuan to the imperial court." Ten thousand dollars, and will organize a thousand hectares of land and donate it to the imperial court to help the imperial court overcome this difficulty..."
Liu Bian's eyes were half-closed suddenly, and a smile flashed by.
He didn't really care about the money and fields, but Yang Biao's attitude!
If you want to doze off, come to the pillow!
Seeing this, Wang Yun quickly said: "Your Majesty, the minister's family has no money left, and is willing to donate 1000 million yuan to the imperial court."
He also wanted to donate land, but there is really not much land, a few hundred acres can't be sold, too much and it hurts.
Xun You and Zhong Yao looked at each other without speaking.
Although they come from rich families, they are not as prestigious as Yang Biao, and their wealth is not much.
Liu Bian stretched out his hand to pick up the teacup, took a sip of tea, then put it down with a slow smile, and said with a relaxed face, "Yang Qing's family is still loyal to the monarch and the country, and they are worthy of being four generations and three princes."
Yang Biao raised his hands, without moving his expression, and said: "Everything of the Yang family comes from the grace of the emperor. Now that the country's fate is so difficult, the Yang family should work together with the country to tide over the difficulties."
Liu Bian nodded approvingly, looked at Wang Yun and the others, and said, "I am very comforted by what Yang Qing's family said. If my great Han family can have the heart of the Yang family, why is this so?"
Xun You and Zhong Yao bowed slightly, although they didn't speak, they knew it well.Yang Biao was still afraid of doing this, worried that he would follow in the footsteps of the Yuan family.
Seeing that Liu Bian ignored him, Wang Yun put down his hands and knelt and sat still.
"I don't dare to be a minister." Yang Biao's fat face was neither happy nor sad, and his head was dripping with sweat.
Liu Bian rubbed the index finger and thumb of his right hand lightly, seeing that the timing was almost up, he said: "The Yang Qing family is sincere, and the world can learn from it."
Under everyone's gaze, Liu Bian sat up straight and said in a deep voice, "I am determined to restore the prime minister, and Yang Qing's family will be in charge."
Yang Biao, who had kept his expression still, suddenly changed his expression, the crutches in his armpit collapsed, and he fell straight forward.
Liu Bian rushed out fiercely, supported Yang Biao, and said: "Yang Qing's family doesn't need to perform such a grand ceremony, what Yang Qing's family did is completely worthy of it, get up quickly."
Yang Biao couldn't use his left leg at all, and tried to get up with his hands, but this was too violent, his legs were awkward, and he couldn't get up or sit back.
I don't know if it's the pain or what, but his head was sweating profusely, his small eyes blinked rapidly, and he said out of breath, "Your Majesty, I, I dare not be a minister..."
Liu Bian was also trying to pull him up, but his hands couldn't grasp the place, and Yang Biao was too heavy to lift him up. He said with all his strength, "You don't have to be humble, get up quickly. You, come and help me!" .”
Xun You and Zhong Yao were also shocked that Liu Bian was going to reinstate the prime minister. Seeing this scene again, they were stunned for a while before recovering. They all stood up and carried Yang Biao back.
Wang Yun watched from the side, his eyes stern.
If the prime minister is re-appointed, there will be suspicions of authoritarianism. Yang Biao, if he is capable or talented, will only do harm to the court and the big man if he sits on the position of prime minister!
