Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 200 Make the best use of the situation, talent rescue plan

"Hey, second brother, what's the rush? I'm wrestling with Dian Wei!"

The spring breeze was still a bit chilly, but Zhang Fei only wore a single shirt, and the two sleeves were rolled up to his shoulders, revealing his strong arms.

Guan Yu squinted his Danfeng eyes slightly, and had a copy of "Lu Shi's New Book" pinned to his waist. He was obviously studying military books somewhere when he was summoned.

"Brother summoned, we will know when we arrive." Guan Yu didn't go into the purpose of Liu Bei's summoning.

As long as Liu Bei summoned him, even if it was thousands of miles away, Guan Yu would go there immediately.

"Hey, Mr. Xianmou is here too." Zhang Fei saw Zheng Ping approaching slowly, swinging his fan and riding a horse from a distance, and hurried up to meet him.

When he got closer, Zhang Fei took the reins of Zheng Ping's horse, and carefully looked like he was going to help Zheng Ping get off the horse.

"Yide, no matter how bad my riding skills are, I won't fall down when I get off the horse, right?" Zheng Ping looked at Zhang Fei's appearance, and he was sure that Zhang Fei had something to worry about.

Zhang Fei lowered his voice, as if he didn't want Guan Yu to hear: "Recently, after thinking hard, I named the unborn child: 'Bao'."

"In the end, Dian Wei asked me why I chose 'Bao' as the name, saying that this bud is grass, and Zhang Bao is Zhang Cao. How can there be a man named Zhang Cao? It's too soft."

Zheng Ping laughed in astonishment: "Why don't you change your name to Yide?"

Zhang Fei shook his head violently: "Manly man, if you don't want to change your name, if you don't want to change your surname, if you say Zhang Bao, you will be Zhang Bao."

After a pause, Zhang Fei said again: "Big Brother casually said the word 'Yi', and Mr. Xianmou can quote the scriptures. I admire Mr. Xianmou's intelligence."

"I also ask Mr. Xianmou to quote the scriptures for me, and I will go back and tell Dian Wei."

Zheng Ping was helpless: "Yide, you haven't read the book, haven't you checked the book?"

Zhang Fei scratched his head: "Where is there a chance to investigate? I was in the courtyard with my wife, and my wife suddenly asked me if I gave birth to a boy, how would I name it?"

"Where do I know how to name it? I happened to see small leaves wrapped with flower buds in a flower pot in the courtyard, so I had an idea and named it 'bud'."

Zheng Ping shook his fan and laughed lightly: "There is a saying in "Daya. Dang Zhi Shi. Chang Wu": Wang Lu is like a man flying like a river, like a river like a river; like a bud on a mountain, like a river flowing like a river; , Zhuo Zheng Xu Guo."

"Its meaning is: the soldiers and horses of the king's division are powerful, swift like birds sweeping the sky, powerful like rivers and rivers; hard to shake like the foundation of a mountain, rolling like a river; Conquer Huaiyi!"

"The name of Bao is to hope that Zhang Bao will be able to serve in the army in the future, invincible and invincible."

"There is also a poem that says: The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the toughness knows the honest minister. The brave man knows righteousness, and the wise man must be benevolent."

"It means: Only in the strong wind can we recognize the tough vegetation, and in the troubled times can we distinguish the loyal courtiers. How can a brave man understand the justice of serving the public, the country, the people and the community, and the wise man , must have benevolence in his heart.”

"With the name of Bao, I hope that Zhang Bao will become a loyal minister and general in the future, with wisdom and benevolence."

"The name of the bud is Yide's expectation for the eldest son to be both civil and military. He is both strong and soft, and the combination of hardness and softness can grow into a generation of famous generals!"

Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and he carefully recorded Zheng Ping's citations.

Zhang Fei knew the source of "Da Ya. Dang Zhi Shi. Chang Wu", but Zhang Fei didn't know the source of the later poems.

"Mr. Xianmou, where does this Herbal Grass come from?" Zhang Fei asked humbly.

Zheng Ping shook his fan and smiled: "I don't know either! Maybe it came from a certain unknown person in the pre-Qin period. Anyway, Dian Wei doesn't understand it, so it's fine if you think it's good."

"If you delay any longer, the envoy will have to punish you."

"If you can't remember, I'll tell you again later, and you find a paper to write it down."

Zhang Fei cheerfully said: "I remember it, I remember it, how can I not remember such a beautiful poem."

Joke room.

The three of them came to the inner hall hand in hand.

Seeing Liu Bei pacing back and forth with an anxious expression on his face, Zhang Fei said bluntly, "Brother, what makes you so anxious? Leave it to me, and I will take care of it right away."

Seeing the arrival of Zheng Ping and the other three, Liu Bei sighed softly and said solemnly: "Brother Bo Gui killed Chang'an's emissary of the Son of Heaven, Minister Shang Shufu and shooter Sun Rui, and he passed a letter to me, promising me to be the general of hussars and support Liu Kai, the king of Hejian, as his commander-in-chief. emperor!"

Zhang Fei frowned: "Who is Liu Kai? What qualifications does he have to be emperor?"

Zheng Ping slowly explained: "Hejian King Liu Kai has the eldest son Hejian Hui Wang Liu Zheng, the second son Pingyuan Xiao Wang Liu Yi, the third son Anping Xiao Wang Liu De, and the fourth son Jieduting Hou Liu Shu."

"After King Hejian passed away, he was passed on to King Hui of Hejian. King Hui of Hejian passed on to his son Liu Jian. Liu Jian passed on to his son Liu Li. Liu Li passed on to his son Liu Kai. Liu Kai is the fifth generation of Hejian. king."

"King Pingyuan Xiao has his eldest son, Emperor Huan, his second son, King Pingyuan, his eldest daughter, Princess Yiyang, the second daughter, Princess Changshe, and the mother of Mrs. Shijun."

"The Marquis of Jieduting also has his eldest grandson, Emperor Ling."

"In short, Liu Kai, the king of Hejian, is a brother of the same generation as the emperor of Chang'an."

Zhang Fei suddenly realized: "In terms of seniority, you still have to call elder brother uncle. They are all from your own family. This is very difficult. The left hand is a nephew, and the right hand is still a nephew. Who are you helping?"

Liu Bei reprimanded lightly: "Third brother, don't talk nonsense! Since Emperor Ling has a son to succeed him, how can he establish a new emperor?"

Zhang Fei thought about it and said, "But with the establishment of the King of Hejian, the elder brother can become a Hussar General. The Hussar General is second only to the Great General. This nephew is much richer than the other nephews."

Guan Yu opened his eyes slightly: "No matter how rich you are, you are still just a puppet in the hands of powerful ministers. You can't control it. Let the elder brother decide!"

Zhang Fei felt bored and looked sideways at Zheng Ping.

Zheng Ping carefully read the contents of the letter, and said slowly: "It has been reported that Dong Zhuo asked the emperor to canonize General Gongsun as the former general, Yihou, governor Qingjiyou and the soldiers of the four states, and issued an edict to let Ma Teng, Zang Hong and Let the Lord Chen Bing go north."

"To lure them with profit, to intimidate them with prestige."

"If there was only the matter of canonization, General Gongsun might not support the new emperor, but to intimidate him is to irritate Gongsun Zan,"

"It seems that someone in the court has begun to plan against Dong Zhuo."

Liu Bei thought about it: "The meaning of conspiracy is that some people in the court want to take advantage of Brother Bogui's support for the new emperor to weaken Dong Zhuo's authority?"

"But there are two emperors in this world, isn't the country falling into division?"

Zheng Ping said with a smile: "Master, are there two emperors in this world? The country is already divided."

"Gongsun Zan embraces the new emperor, Dong Zhuo must send troops to Guanzhong, otherwise he will hide in Chang'an, and he will no longer be able to coerce the emperor to command the world."

"The people with this layout don't want Dong Zhuo to stay in Guanzhong all the time, but want him to enter the world and wipe out the princes."

"Dong Zhuo has entered the game, he can't help himself."

Liu Bei suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed, "Xianmou, you mean Lu—"

Zheng Ping shook his head slightly, not letting Liu Bei say what he said later.

But whether it is Guan Yu or Zhang Fei, they have already understood.

Lu Zhi is plotting against Dong Zhuo!

Zheng Ping shook his fan slightly, his eyes were burning: "Dong Zhuo is too comfortable in Guanzhong, and it is difficult to be aggressive if he is too comfortable."

"The Xiliang soldiers can only harm the soldiers and people in Guanzhong, but when they leave Guanzhong, they can make their minions pounce on the princes of the Guandong."

"However, if Xiliang soldiers leave Guanzhong, Dong Zhuo's control in Chang'an will be weakened."

"If the Xiliang soldiers are defeated for a while, Dong Zhuo's life will not last long."

Liu Bei took a breath: "Dong Zhuo wins, the new emperor supported by brother Bo Gui will not be recognized by the people of the world. If Dong Zhuo loses, the forces loyal to the emperor will be equal to Dong Zhuo, and it will be difficult for Dong Zhuo to gain power. "

"However, this plan is too dangerous. If there is a change, how many people will become kings in this world?"

Zheng Pingtai smiled: "Destroy and then erect, even if there is a change, we can help the king to pacify the kings, so that the Han Dynasty can be secluded and restored."

Liu Bei hesitated and said, "Brother Bogui supported the King of Hejian, should I accept the invitation or refuse?"

Zheng Ping said with a smile: "Of course I have to refuse! A false name of a hussar general wants to gamble the whole Qingzhou on the envoy, so the envoy is too underestimated."

"Yuan Shao and General Gongsun supported the new emperor, and they must have taken the greatest advantage. It is really unwise for the emperor to accept the invitation, but the benefits will not be obtained, and there will be a lot of bad things."

"But the envoy can't do nothing. You can ask the envoy to go back and tell General Gongsun: Qingzhou will not participate in the support and establishment, and will not obey Dong Zhuo's orders to go north. I only hope that General Gongsun will remember the feelings of his old friend and send Da Sima The father and son, as well as the civil and military followers of Da Sima, were all sent to Qingzhou."

"And Shijun promised that as long as General Gongsun is in Youzhou for one day, Da Sima will never return to Youzhou!"

"In this way, General Gongsun doesn't have to confront the envoy head-on and ruin the brotherhood, and he doesn't have to worry about Da Sima and others causing trouble in Youzhou."

"Your Majesty, you cannot persuade General Gongsun's ambition."

"Since you can't be persuaded, it's better to keep those who can be kept first, and then slowly figure it out."

What Zheng Ping said just now actually concealed a part.

To be complete, it should be said that if there is a change, it would be Emperor Guangwu to wipe out the kings and make the Han Dynasty quiet and bright again!

But now Liu Bei has no intention of competing for the world. If he directly tells Liu Bei: the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman benefits. Anyway, in the end, you will be the emperor.

Liu Bei estimated that he could drive Zheng Ping away.

Zheng Ping had bad intentions in handing the Jade Seal of Chuanguo to Liu Yu from the very beginning.

Dong Zhuo's advantage in coercing the emperor to order the world is that Liu Bian is dead!
Whether Liu Xie is orthodox or not, he is Liu Hong's only son!
The advantage of Chuanguo Yuxi is that he gave Yuan Shao and others a reason to support a new emperor.

"Ordered by the sky", only the jade seal of the country can be recognized as the emperor recognized by heaven.

The Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven, there is no Jade Seal of Chuanguo, how can he be called the Son of Heaven?

To Zheng Ping's surprise, Lu Zhi actually contributed to the flames in Chang'an!
This made Dong Zhuo's original plan to lure Gongsun Zan not only failed to delay Gongsun Zan's support for the new emperor, but prompted Gongsun Zan to speed up.

But this kind of change is what Zheng Ping is happy to see.

If Liu Xie's prestige does not decrease, how will Liu Bei be promoted smoothly in the future?
Only when the emperor of the Han family loses his virtue can he choose an excellent clan son to succeed him!
The purpose of letting Liu Yu's father and son and Wen Wu who followed Liu Yu come to Qingzhou was to prevent Gongsun Zan from killing Liu Yu, which would cause instability in Youzhou, and instead let Yuan Shao take advantage of it.

Compared with Yuan Shao, Zheng Ping hoped that Gongsun Zan would take power in Youzhou.

Compared to Yuan Shu in the south, Yuan Shao is the one who has truly inherited the prestige of the Yuan family.

Liu Bei paced again.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were tactful and did not make a sound to disturb them.

a long time.

Liu Bei sighed: "That's the only way! It's just that Brother Bogui may not be willing to send Da Sima to Qingzhou."

Zheng Ping said indifferently: "It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to Heaven to make things happen."

"General Gongsun is a person who takes soft things but not hard ones. If you make you reply with words of advice, General Gongsun will only feel that you are making you loud; but if you make your words be more sincere, you will only tell General Gongsun your old feelings and difficulties; General Gongsun With a soft heart, I might agree."

"Even if you don't succeed in the end, you have a clear conscience."

"After all, Da Sima is in such a catastrophe, he must have abandoned Tian Yuanhao's advice just like General Gongsun."

Liu Bei took a deep breath, and his eyes returned to normal: "Just follow Xianmou's words, wait for a letter from me, and let the messenger send it back."

Zheng Ping said again: "In order to prevent the letter from being intercepted by Yuan Shao, let Yun Chang go to the camp first to escort him. If General Gongsun is willing to release him, let him go to the camp first to escort Da Sima back to Qingzhou."

"Yide will lead the elite battalion to respond. If there is any obstruction, he will be killed immediately."

This kind of confidential matter has to pass through Yuan Shao's area.

If a letter was accidentally intercepted by Yuan Shao, even if Gongsun Zan was willing to let Liu Yu come to Qingzhou, Yuan Shao would definitely send someone to intercept it secretly.

It is even possible to pretend to be Gongsun Zan's soldiers and kill Liu Yu on the way.

therefore.

Zheng Ping not only had to ensure that the letter was safely delivered to Gongsun Zan, but also ensured that Liu Yu could return to Qingzhou safely!

After solving Liu Bei's confusion, Zheng Ping went to the government office to meet Liu Hui, the governor.

"There is news from Yuzhou that Dong Zhuo has appointed Cao Cao, the prefect of Yingchuan, as the governor of Yuzhou, the general of Zhendong, and the title of Marquis of Feiting." Liu Hui passed the latest information to Zheng Ping.

Hearing Cao Cao's official position, Zheng Ping's eyes froze: "Inspector of Yuzhou, Cao Mengde's heart is still in Yuxu."

Cao Cao is a native of Peiguo. If he followed the avoidance system of the three mutual laws that restrained party members from forming cliques for private interests during Emperor Huan's time, Cao Cao would not be able to be the governor of Yuzhou.

However, this avoidance system is too complicated, which makes it extremely difficult to select officials, so that the governors of Youzhou and Jizhou have been vacant for a long time.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, Shu Xiang, a minister of the State of Jin, once said: The country is about to perish, and there must be more systems.

Although the three mutual laws can prevent the collusion of party members for the supreme ruler Huan Ling, it is not beneficial to the common people.

Dong Zhuo doesn't like this.

For Dong Zhuo, who is the governor of Yuzhou depends on who is beneficial to Dong Zhuo.

Chen Wang Liu Chong, who was appointed as the shepherd of Yuzhou at the beginning, and Guo Gong, the governor of Yuzhou later, were both from Yuzhou.

Dong Zhuo will seal whoever is useful.

Thinking of this, Zheng Ping summoned Mi Heng.

"Zhengping, go to the Chen Kingdom and look for Chen Prime Minister Luo Jun." Zheng Ping instructed: "Chen Wang is light and unprepared, and it is difficult to guard against assassins. The current situation is chaotic and wars are frequent. They will also be displaced.”

"Remind Luo Jun, beware of Yuan Shu!"

　Three shifts a day, I can ask for a monthly pass every day...
