Han family achievements

Chapter 292 Another Conspiracy
Huangfu Jianchang screamed at the top of his lungs and cried for a long time, still very sad.

Shi A was not good at words and looked at Cheng Yu from the corner of his eye.

Cheng Yu understood, took a step forward, and said softly: "Second Young Master, Grand Sima's funeral was extremely mournful and honorable. Your Majesty even granted a title to the imperial family."

Huangfu Jianchang heard the sound, gritted his teeth, took a long breath, wiped his face with a smile and cried, kowtowed heavily, and then slowly calmed down his emotions.

After he stood up, he patted his face again and said, "Tell me about the situation."

Seeing that his face was still full of sadness, Shi A didn't speak.

Cheng Yu pondered for a moment and said: "Second Young Master, Yuan Shu was busy proclaiming himself emperor and did not continue to send troops. On the contrary, Sun Jian, Gongsun Zan, Liu Biao, Shi Xie and others have made great efforts and have already issued a proclamation, preparing to attack Yuan Shu together."

Huangfu Jianchang tried his best to control his emotions and said: "Their thoughts are nothing more than expanding their power, but Yuan Shu is destroying himself, and the gods are hard to save. What is the reaction from the imperial court?"

Cheng Yu said: "Your Majesty has issued an edict and ordered Zhang Wen to be the general of the left. He will lead Liu Bei, Yuan Shao, Sun Jian, Liu Biao, Shi Xie, etc., with a total of 30 troops to attack."

Huangfu Jianchang frowned subconsciously, with a hint of doubt on his face: "Zhang Wen?"

Cheng Yu nodded and said: "The lower officials also feel that something is wrong. Zhang Wen has left the court for many years and cannot suppress these people at all. This appointment seems to have a deeper meaning."

Huangfu Jian looked at him and said, "Has your Majesty given me any orders?"

Cheng Yu said: "No. However, I have received word that I still hope that the second young master will return to Beijing."

Huangfu Jianchang wiped his face again, exhaled, shook his head and said: "If I don't make some achievements, how can I have the shame to go back?"

Cheng Yu and Shi A both stopped talking.

This second young master had been a bastard for a long time, but the two of them followed him for a long time, and they clearly realized that this second son was cynical and hiding his "inferiority" in his heart.

All these years of traveling here and there were just to prove to Huangfusong that he was not a waste.

Unfortunately, Huangfu Song died of illness.

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Huangfu Jian suddenly smiled and said: "Our Huangfu family is in great mourning. There is nothing to be sad about. Tell us about Dong Zhuo's news."

Cheng Yu knew that Huangfu Jian didn't mean what he said, but he didn't know how to comfort him. He could only answer: "Dong Zhuo is not like Dong Zhuo, but Lu Bu is very restless. He has been trying to invade Guangling County recently and has fought with Sun Jian several times. There is victory and defeat for each other.”

Huangfu Jian glanced at the map on the wall. There was a personal name marked on it. He examined it carefully for a while and said to himself: "Liu Bei, Yuan Shao... shouldn't it be Cao Cao? Since it's not Cao Cao, it means that your Majesty has someone else." Plan... Your Majesty, are you prepared to defeat Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop?"

Cheng Yu had never thought about this, and his expression changed when he heard this, and said: "Second Young Master, the court must not do this!"

Huangfu Jianchang nodded without thinking and said: "The imperial court is too weak. If we really want to start a war, all these years of hard work will be reduced to nothing. Suddenly we will be back to the Zhongping period, and it will even be more dangerous."

He stared at the map and said: "Probably not. I can see that His Majesty and the princes of the court have no reason to be unclear. They must have other plans."

Cheng Yu also thought so, and said: "According to the official's guess, the imperial court may want to attack Guo on false terms. It is true that Yuan will be destroyed. Taking the opportunity to weaken or eliminate the princes in the south is also the established goal."

Huangfu Jianchang was slightly stunned, but his mind still couldn't move, and he asked: "What should we do next?"

Cheng Yu, who had always been Huangfu's chief military advisor, heard this and said: "I have thought about it carefully, Second Young Master, Yuan Shu's defeat is right in front of me, and the most important thing at the moment is Dong Zhuo. I suggest that Second Young Master do not move and sit in charge as prime minister." County, sit back and watch the changes, remain unchanged in response to all changes, and have a complete plan."

Huangfu Jianchang had no intention of running away now and said: "Okay. You can write a letter for me to the Grand Sima Mansion, and then write a secret letter to His Majesty."

Cheng Yu glanced at Huangfu Song's spiritual throne again and said, "Second Young Master, I would like to visit Xiangxian County."

Huangfu Jianchang shook his head decisively and said: "You can't go to the place of right and wrong. Let our people get moving and send all the news, whether true or false. By the way, we can't stay in Shouchun anymore. Find another place."

Cheng Yu nodded in agreement.

Before long, the entire South will be in chaos, and no place will be safe.

Dangdang~
Suddenly, there was a sound outside, and the three people in the secret room were all alarmed and looked at each other.

Their secret room is extremely soundproofed. How loud can the sound be transmitted in for them to hear clearly?

The three of them looked at each other with slightly condensed expressions, then silently left the secret room and came outside.

The voice became clearer. A guard from the Imperial City Mansion pretending to be a steward ran over quickly and whispered: "Captain, they are Yuan Shu's soldiers. They are recruiting young people."

Huangfu Jianchang didn't care. Yuan Shu had been doing this for a day or two. He was about to wave his hands away when he suddenly said: "Dong Zhuo, is there really no movement?"

Cheng Yu's expression suddenly changed, and he had a strong bad feeling, saying, "I'll send someone to investigate again right now!"

Huangfu Jianchang spent a lot of effort on Dong Zhuo and placed a large number of people in Dong Zhuo's shogunate, army, and even his mansion.

Huangfu Jianchang thought about it and said, "I want to meet that Kong Min."

Cheng Yu listened to the gongs, drums and shouts outside and said, "Second Young Master, that Kong Ni is not Dong Zhuo's confidant. I'm afraid it may not be clear. Do you want to use that person?"

"No!" Huangfu Jianchang answered very simply, "You can't use him until the critical moment. Is that Jia Xu still living in seclusion and out of reach?"

Shi A answered and said: "My people have been watching for half a month, and they only saw one side, and there was a heavy guard."

Huangfu Jian's thoughts gradually returned and he looked outside the wall and said: "Recruit more people and give them to Dong Zhuo. Not only Dong Zhuo, but also Lu Bu, Sun Jian and others will go through. Also, find a way to find out the location of their money and food."

I don't know if it was because of the success of several granary robberies that gave Huangfu Jianchang some excitement. He paid special attention to the word "money and grain".

Cheng Yu said: "Second Young Master, don't worry, I have already ordered someone to investigate secretly."

In Cheng Yu's view, money and food are the foundation of everything.The reason why the court was in trouble was because there was no money and food.And those princes with different ideas also need money and food.

One day a war really breaks out. If they rob or burn the money and food from the rear, they will definitely win without a fight!

Huangfu Jianchang nodded, listened to the sound of gongs and drums and walked away, his eyes flashed slightly, and said: "You think, can Liu Bei do it?"

Cheng Yu also hesitated when he heard this.

Compared with Cao Cao, Liu Bei's official career was relatively "smooth". This "smooth" refers to the fact that the setbacks Liu Bei experienced were basically because he couldn't stand those corrupt officials and left on his own.

Liu Bei didn't make any big mistakes, but he also didn't have any conspicuous achievements.

Before being uprooted by Liu Bian, he traveled around and made many small achievements but no big achievements. He only served as a county magistrate.

But this time, Yuan Shu was gaining momentum in his conquest, and Liu Bei's ability began to be questioned.

"I have some friendship with Guan Yunchang."

Huangfu Jian touched his chin and said, "Mr. Cheng, send some people over to help him."

Cheng Yu understood what Huangfu Jianchang meant and said, "Okay. Yuan Shao also needs to keep an eye on him."

Huangfu Jianchang suddenly sneered and said: "That's enough over there. But Sun Jian can't relax, most of the Jiangdong family supports him."

Compared with Liu Biao's secretive manipulation, Sun Jian was more direct, dared to do anything, used his sword and gun openly, and turned a deaf ear to the court's orders.

After saying this, Huangfu Jian looked outside the wall and said with emotion: "It's a pity that I can't see the grand occasion of Yuan Shu's ascension to the throne..."

Cheng Yu said, "Second Young Master, I'm afraid no one can see it. Yuan Shu's enthronement date is set in one month, and he may not be able to last for a month."

Huangfu Jian was deeply convinced, but he couldn't help but laugh.

Who would have thought that Yuan Shu would actually become emperor?

For a time, the whole world was slandered and the whole world was his enemy!

It’s really asking for death!
While Huangfu Jianchang and others were discussing, the city of Shouchun was bustling.

Every house is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the sound of joy is everywhere.

Occasionally, I saw officers and soldiers arresting people everywhere, and the cries disappeared quickly.

In Shouchun's "Palace", Yuan Shuzhi sat on the main seat with a happy face and a cheerful look on his face.

Below, dozens of people including Guo Tu, Ju Yi, Xu You, Ji Ling, Yuan Huan, Feng Ji, etc. were full, but the atmosphere was not the same as outside.

Regarding Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor, the staff and subordinates did not fully agree, and many people became silent.

Yuan Shu naturally saw these people clearly. He glanced at them coldly and laughed loudly: "Everyone, how are the preparations for the enthronement ceremony going?"

Feng Ji was the first to raise his hand and said flatteringly: "Return to the Lord, it will be done within a month, and it will not delay the Lord's enthronement ceremony!"

Yuan Shu smiled with satisfaction and said: "Thank you for your hard work, Feng Qing. How should we deal with Zhang Wen sent by the imperial court?"

Guo Tu followed closely and said: "My lord, those like Sun Jian and Liu Biao are nothing more than local chickens and dogs, not worth mentioning. As for Zhang Wen, he has already passed away, so there is no need to worry. And Liu Bei is just a kid, the lord sent A general is enough to deal with it. Finally, Yuan Shao is the master's slave, so why should we be afraid?"

Yuan Shu was very impressed by Guo Tu's words, but he was not completely dazzled by the victory. He looked around and said, "I want to conquer Sun Jian personally and defeat Sun Jian first. What do you think?"

Everyone was very divided about Yuan Shu's self-proclaimed title. In addition, many people opposed Yuan Shu's proclaiming emperor, and felt that the war should not continue now, but instead focus on defense.

Therefore, after Yuan Shu finished speaking, the audience became quiet.

Yuan Shu waited for a while, but when he saw that no one was flattering him, he couldn't help but look slightly cold.

Then he seemed to have thought of something, and he snorted coldly and said, "I know that you have received a lot of letters recently. I hope you understand the word loyalty."

This sentence made countless people below stunned and even nauseated.
