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

Chapter 222 Ju Shou Tian Feng, Liu Bei's Adviser

Government office.

Liu Bei received Cao Cao's emissary Wang Jun.

Wang Jun, styled Ziwen, was born in Runan. When he was young, he was admired by famous officials Fan Pang and Xu Zhang, and he had an inseparable relationship with Nanyang Cen Zang.

When Cao Cao was still a commoner, he admired Wang Jun very much, and Wang Jun also praised Cao Cao for his tools for governing the world.

When Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's mothers died, they were buried in Runan. Wang Jun and Cao Cao went to offer their condolences. More than 3 famous officials from all over the world gathered in Runan.

Seeing this grand occasion, Cao Cao quietly said to Wang Jun: The world will be in chaos, and the culprits must be these two brothers. If you want to help the world and save the people from the fire, you must kill these two people first.

Wang Jun replied: If it is true as you said, then whoever can help the world is better than you.

After Cao Cao became the shepherd of Yuzhou, he sent people to Wuling County to enlist Wang Jun, who lived in seclusion, as the governor of Yuzhou.

After glancing at Cao Cao's letter, Liu Bei's face was not very happy when he saw that there were many questions in the letter.

"Cao Song died in Hua County, what has he to do with Qingzhou?"

"The meaning of Cao Yuzhou: Is Qingzhou responsible for Cao Song's death?"

Wang Jun is a man with a calm surface and a clear heart.

Seeing Liu Bei's displeasure, he said, "Mr. Liu misunderstood! Cao Yuzhou saw through Cao Hong's plan to create misfortune, so he sent me to Qingzhou to prevent the Qingyu family from causing misunderstandings due to Cao Hong's plan to create misfortune. "

"However, Cao Yuzhou is in the pain of losing his father, and seeing that all the Cao family's wealth has been transported to Linzi City, it is inevitable that there is some resentment in his heart."

"While the words are rude, they are also excusable."

"I have heard that Mr. Liu is lenient and benevolent, so he will not blame Cao Yuzhou's human relations."

Seeing Wang Jun's response and elegant demeanor, Liu Bei's eyes were a little more appreciative: "In the past, Tao Shijun handed over the northern county of Langya Kingdom to the governor of Qingzhou."

"However, in the northern county of Langya Kingdom, Cao Song colluded with county officials and forcibly occupied houses and fields. More than ten households of people died because of it, and hundreds of Li Shu were displaced."

"If you break Qingzhou's law, you should be executed for the crime."

"Looking at Cao Yuzhou, I will only drive him out of Qingzhou."

"Now that Cao Song is dead, the crime of death is eliminated, and the crime of violating Qingzhou's laws and harming the people of Qingzhou can also be dismissed."

"These fifty carts of money are used to appease the common people in the northern county who died because of Cao Song. What do Mr. Ziwen think?"

Wang Jun's scalp felt a little numb.

When he came, Cao Cao specifically explained to Wang Jun.

Even if you can't get all of the fifty carts back, you have to get half of it back.

Revenge belongs to revenge, money belongs to money, these are two different things.

But listening to Liu Bei's tone, Wang Jun obviously didn't intend to return the fifty carts of money.

"Liu Shijun, I sincerely apologize for the hardships suffered by the people of Lishu in the northern county."

"But after all, it's Cao's family property. Why don't Liu Shijun keep half of it to appease the suffering Li Shu people?"

Liu Bei said with a smile: "Mr. Ziwen, if we talk about laws and regulations, all these stolen goods will be confiscated."

"Although I am a shepherd of Qingzhou, I cannot violate the laws of Qingzhou."

First the money, now the stolen goods.

Wang Jun suddenly had nothing to say.

Confiscating stolen goods is legal.

Wang Jun took a deep breath, and said again: "Cao Yuzhou is going to attack Xuzhou to avenge the murder of his father. Mr. Liu will not stop Cao Yuzhou's filial piety, right?"

Wang Jun deliberately emphasized the words "meaning filial piety"!
Liu Bei laughed: "The great man ruled the world with filial piety, and Cao Yuzhou avenged his father, which is in line with human relations."

"However, the city gate caught fire, which affected the fish in the pond. There are [-] Qingzhou villagers in the East China Sea. I don't know if the soldiers and horses in Cao Yuzhou have strict military discipline and have not committed any crime against the people?"

"The last time Cao Yuzhou fought against Tao Shijun, and sent troops to plunder the people in the village, it was really against morality."

"I am a person who has always pursued justice."

"Cao Yuzhou wants to avenge his father. This is human nature, and I will not stop it; but if Cao Yuzhou can't restrain military discipline, I can't just stand by and watch."

"Mr. Ziwen is a well-known official in Runan, so he must also understand the reason why this disaster is not as good as the common people."

Wang Jun hesitated: "A military battle is dangerous, and it is inevitable that there will be casualties."

Liu Bei laughed and said, "This is something Cao Yuzhou needs to consider. What's more, even though Dong Zhuo is dead, the false emperor is still alive. This is the country's enemy!"

"Mr. Ziwen might as well advise Cao Yuzhou to put aside personal and family hatred for the time being, and join Qingzhou in the northern expedition."

"How about Cao Yuzhou and Tao Shijun resolve their personal and family vendettas when the world is settled down in the future?"

"In this way, you can be a righteous man!"

Wang Jun's eyes became serious.

Liu Bei's debate skills are more exquisite than expected.

But in just a few words, the matter of Cao Cao's revenge was brought up as a national enmity and personal enmity.

If it is a righteous person, it is natural to resolve the national enmity first, and then resolve the personal enmity.

"I will report what Liu Shijun said to Cao Yuzhou." Wang Jun sighed softly, "I only hope that there will be fewer military disasters in this world, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

After chatting for a while, Liu Bei sent Wang Jun out of the mansion and let him rest temporarily in the post on the grounds that "need to discuss with everyone".

After Wang Jun left, Liu Bei's eyes gradually became serious.

"Looking at Cao Cao's letters and Wang Jun's words and deeds, Cao Cao is determined to attack Xuzhou."

"National enmity and private enmity, Cao Cao still puts personal enmity above national enmity, or perhaps, Cao Cao just wants to take the opportunity to take Xuzhou in the name of avenging his father."

The longer he was in charge of Qingzhou, Liu Bei's strategy and strategy changed, and he became more and more proficient.

After thinking about it, Zhang Fei came in from the outside with a smug expression on his face.

"Brother, I brought back the picture of the lady."

"Fortunately, Mr. Xianmou was not aware of it."

Liu Bei chuckled, "It would be impolite for you to disturb Xianmou right after he came back."

Zhang Fei waved his hand: "I have been friends with Mr. Xianmou for more than three years, so I don't need to pay attention to this little politeness. That man was Cao Cao's emissary just now? Why did he come to find elder brother?"

Liu Bei restrained his face slightly: "Of course it is for Cao Song's death and the fifty carts of money."

Zhang Fei snorted coldly: "Cao Song committed a major crime in the northern county of Langya Country. He deserved to die. Does Cao Cao still want to ask Brother?"

Liu Bei stroked his short beard and said, "Cao Cao intends to conquer Xuzhou again in the name of avenging his father. This time, he sent envoys to Qingzhou to let Qingzhou stand by and watch."

Zhang Fei said contemptuously: "Qingzhou and Xuzhou are allies, logically the elder brother must help Tao Qian."

"But I hate that Cao Hong, who actually wanted to bring trouble to Qingzhou, with such sinister intentions, why did my brother send troops for Tao Qian?"

"It's better to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. When Cao Cao and Tao Qian are both defeated, the elder brother wins Xuzhou in one fell swoop, and the other talented people will become the Xuzhou shepherd."

Liu Bei reprimanded lightly: "If I don't help Tao Qian, won't it mean that I will break the covenant and break the trust of the world?"

Zhang Fei spread his hands and said, "You can't let Qingzhou fight Cao Cao to the death because of Tao Qian's mistake, right? Eldest brother does not help relatives, it is inevitable that it will be true, and others will think that elder brother and Tao Qian are in collusion."

Think carefully for a long time.

Liu Bei didn't think about whether to send troops to help Tao Qian.

After all, what happened to Tao Qian this time was really unreasonable.

If you want to kill Cao Song, just kill him.

However, Cao Song chose the method of blaming him, and it failed.

The blame failed, and Qingzhou was blamed.

No matter how you look at it, it's all a villain's behavior.

Liu Bei did not disturb Zheng Ping, but summoned Ju Shou and Tian Feng to inquire about the strategy.

Although Qingzhou can't give Jushou and Tian Feng too high an official position now, Liu Bei's courtesy to Jushou and Tian Feng has not been reduced by half.

Whenever there is a major event, Ju Shou and Tian Feng will be called to discuss it, showing their respect.

Tian Feng pondered for a while and said, "I've never heard of it. The state and herdsmen raised troops to inquire about crimes just to avenge their father."

"The country has its own laws, Tao Qian killed Cao Song, Cao Cao should report to the emperor, and the emperor will punish Tao Qian."

"Cao Cao was originally from a family of officials and eunuchs, and he was an official in Luoyang. It is impossible for him to be unaware of these laws."

"However, Cao Cao chose the method of raising troops to question the crime. This is to treat himself as the king of the spring and autumn princes."

"Feng believes that the envoy should send troops to persuade peace, so as to prevent the Xuzhou scholars and people from suffering because of the personal hatred of Cao Cao and Tao Qian."

Tian Feng has an upright personality, and his words are also quite upright.

Since they are all state shepherds, if there is a personal enmity, the emperor should decide right from wrong, and how can he raise troops to question the crime in private?

Ju Shou said: "Yuan Hao's words are not without reason."

"Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and the court's laws have long been unable to restrain the pastors of the states."

"Cao Cao's move is just to take the opportunity to annex Xuzhou, which is no different from Yuan Shu in Huainan."

"The Professor believes that we can take the opportunity to defeat Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, so that he can no longer cause military disasters, and then he can focus on the people's livelihood in Yuzhou."

Tian Feng wants to persuade him to make peace, but Ju Shou is even more ruthless.

Instead of persuading peace, it is better to cut off Cao Cao's minions and let him do his duty in Yuzhou.

But both Tian Feng and Ju Shou were in favor of sending troops.

Liu Bei said: "I also have the same idea! However, Tao Qian made a mistake after all. If I send troops, it will inevitably fall into the trap."

"The big man ruled the world with filial piety, and prevented Cao Cao from avenging his father. After all, it was somewhat wrong."

Ju Shou said: "If you are worried about your reputation, you might as well send someone to tell Tao Qian."

"Now there is no shortage of food in Qingzhou, so I hope that the [-] villagers who are farming in the East China Sea can return to their hometowns."

"The Lord can send another message to Cao Cao that the autumn harvest is approaching, and these villagers can only leave after the autumn harvest."

"Therefore, Qingzhou does not want to see any military disasters affecting Xuzhou this year."

"I persuade you with great righteousness. If Cao Cao still wants to attack Xu, then he doesn't have to suffer because of his reputation."

"Now that Dong Zhuo is dead, the situation in the world will definitely undergo new changes."

"As long as it is delayed until after the autumn harvest, Cao Cao may not have the intention to attack Xuzhou again."

"Tao Qian's plan is not secret, and now he must hope that the Lord can send troops to help, so even if Tao Qian is reluctant, he will definitely not prevent the villagers from returning to Qingzhou."

"So, kill two birds with one stone."

Liu Bei was overjoyed: "Gong Yuzhi's words are very kind!"

"Cao Cao was worried that I would send troops, so seeing that I wanted to relocate the villagers in the East China Sea in Qingzhou, even if he was reluctant, he would definitely agree."

"And when I relocated the villagers in the farmland, Cao Cao would mistakenly think that Qingzhou would not take care of this matter."

After Tian Feng and Jushou discussed the details, Liu Bei replied with a letter and sent someone to the posthouse to hand over to Wang Jun. At the same time, he asked Jushou to go to Tancheng to persuade Tao Qian to let the Tuntian people in Donghai return to Qingzhou.

Although Wang Jun didn't know the content of the letter, he didn't ask any more questions, but hurried back to Yuzhou.

Jushou didn't hesitate and came to Tancheng.

At this time, Tao Qian was troubled by Cao Song's death.

It was originally a perfect plan to blame Cao Song, but he never thought that Zhang Kai would miss Cao Song's money, so that the success fell short.

Especially when he heard that Zhang Kai was not dead, Tao Qian wished he could kill Zhang Kai himself.

What made Tao Qian even more angry was that Cao Hong took the initiative to frame Qingzhou without authorization.

If it weren't for the fact that Cao Hong followed him for many years and worked hard, Tao Qian would have killed Cao Hong to express his apology to Liu Bei.

Only Cao Hong could think of such a stupid strategy of blaming his allies.

At the least, Qingzhou stands still, and at worst, Qingzhou turns against each other.

therefore.

After learning that Jushou had come to Tancheng, Tao Qian hurried out of the city to greet him.

"Ju engaged, the old man has lost his way, and I hope to forgive my sin!" Tao Qian's attitude was quite humble.

In the past, it was impossible for Tao Qian to be courteous towards a worker.

After all, the difference in status and status is here, and it is already polite to be able to look straight at it.

But now, Tao Qian was eager to know Qingzhou's attitude, and naturally he didn't want to ruin the event because of his rudeness for a while.

Ju Shou returned the gift and said: "Tao Shijun is broken. I am here today under the order of Qingzhou Xuande Gong to discuss with Tao Shijun about the migration of the East China Sea Tuntian people back to Qingzhou."

Tao Qian turned pale when he heard the words: "Could it be that Xuande is holding grudges and spreading misfortune? This is not the old man's intention, and the old man is about to send someone to apologize to Xuande."

Jushou secretly despised him.

I really mean to apologize, I have already apologized.

Until now, Tao Qian has not sent anyone to Qingzhou to explain the reason.

Thinking of the purpose of this trip, Ju Shou smiled and said: "Tao Shijun misunderstood, if Xuande Gong remembered this matter, why would he ask me to discuss with Tao Shijun about the migration of the villagers back to Qingzhou?"

"This is an expedient measure!"

"After all, Mr. Tao didn't do it kindly. Mr. Xuande wanted to help, but he was worried about the truth, which attracted Zang Hong from Yanzhou to intervene."

"Chenliu's prefect Zhang Miao and Cao Cao are inseparable. If Cao Cao really wants to send troops to Xuzhou, Yanzhou will definitely send troops to contain Qingzhou."

"That's why Duke Xuande came up with a plan to relocate the villagers back to Qingzhou to delay the time, so that he could take the opportunity to persuade Yanzhou not to participate in the dispute between Cao Cao and Tao Shijun."

Only then did Tao Qian heave a sigh of relief, but he still had doubts: "Xuande wants to use this as an excuse to prevent Cao Cao from sending troops to Tancheng easily."

"Although it can delay the time, how should I deal with Cao Cao after the villagers in the village moved back to Qingzhou?"

"When Xuande has no reason to send troops, won't this old man just let Cao Cao slaughter him?"

Ju Shou chuckled: "Maybe Tao Shijun has forgotten that Yuan Shu in Huainan also had a feud with Cao Cao."

"Although Tao Shijun and Yuan Shu also have feuds, sometimes enemies can become allies."

"No matter how much Cao Cao hated Tao Shijun, he would not dare to fight with the few."

"And during this period, Tao Shijun can play the role of the emperor, saying that Cao Song colluded with the officials in Langya to harm the people, and let the emperor come forward to resolve the dispute."

"Even Cao Cao dared not disobey the emperor's order."

Tao Qian was overjoyed: "If you really judge like Ju, I don't have to be afraid of Cao Cao."

"Cao Song violated the law. The old man killed him to punish him. How could Cao Cao use the pretense of avenging his father to attack Xuzhou?"

"If he really dares to send troops against the will of the emperor, he will be a rebellious thief, and everyone will be punished!"
