At the end of the Han Dynasty: a stingy husband from his hometown

Chapter 151 Yuangu is the quality, the governor Chen Wen

Li Ru's thoughts changed sharply, and he said: "Prince Xie was named King Chenliu, even if he went to the feudal kingdom for food, he should go to Chenliu. How can he go to Yangzhou with General Cheqi?"

Zhou Qi said with a serious face: "Today, the world is chaotic and thieves are everywhere. The late emperor ordered me to take care of the prince's association. I will take him with me and protect him well, so as to fulfill the late emperor's last wish."

When Li Ru saw that Zhou Qi was using the late emperor's edict to make an argument, it was immediately difficult for Li Ru to refute.

However, the matter was so serious that Li Ru couldn't make the decision himself, so he could only say: "I will return to the city first and discuss it with Sikong, and then I will reply to General Chariot and Cavalry."

Zhou Qi showed displeasure on his face, and said: "I have already said that I hope that the people sent by Dong Zhuo can be the masters."

"I never thought that during the discussion, Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo's official envoy, would not say a word, but you, Li Ru, refused repeatedly. Could it be that Lu Fengxian is just a puppet and can't be the master?"

When Lu Bu heard this, he was furious immediately, and said loudly: "I am a warrior, I don't bother to care about these messy things, I just believe in Fangtian's painted halberd in my hand."

"If General Cheqi wants to discuss matters with me, he can send someone to fight with me."

"If you can defeat me, everything will be easy. If you cannot defeat me, then the chariot general will not be able to take away King Chenliu."

Seeing Lu Bu's arrogance, Dian Wei and Xu Chu were furious and asked for a fight.

Zhou Qi, however, stretched out his right hand to signal the two of them to calm down, then focused on Li Ru and said, "Is Lu Fengxian's words possible?"

Li Rulu glanced at Dian Wei and Xu Chu with fear, but when he thought of Lu Bu's bravery, he immediately nodded and said: "Fengxian is the adopted son of Sikong, and he is also the head coach of this negotiation, so he naturally deserves to be the master."

Li Ru already understood that Zhou Qi was determined to take Prince Xie away from Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo neither wanted to give up Liu Xie nor wanted to fight with Zhou Qi. It would be unprofitable for both parties to continue the stalemate.

In this way, the contest proposed by Lu Bu to determine Liu Xie's whereabouts is actually the best way to break the situation.

Lu Bu won the championship among all three armies, and Li Ru also believed that the opponent would not lose.

Zhou Qi heard this and then smiled and said: "Although it is not appropriate to use swords and weapons when negotiating between two parties, since Fengxian is so elegant, I am naturally willing to accompany him."

"However, Sikong and I are important officials of the imperial court, so the martial arts competition must not be known to everyone, so as not to embarrass the imperial court."

"My tent of the Chinese army is relatively spacious. How about tidying up the things inside and competing in the commander's tent?"

Hearing this, Li Ru frowned slightly, and said: "Fengxian is an immediate general, if you compete in the commander's camp, I'm afraid it's not appropriate."

Li Ru was quick in thinking and quickly guessed Zhou Qi's plan.

Zhou Qi ignored Li Ru, instead turned to look at Lu Bu, and said with some disdain: "All kinds of emergencies may happen on the battlefield."

"Fengxian's war horse was shot to death, should he be captured without a fight?"

"If that's the case, I advise you not to lead troops first and later. Wouldn't it be nice to stay in the rear and enjoy yourself?"

"Hahahaha!"

When everyone in the camp heard the words, they all burst into laughter, and the meaning of ridicule was self-evident.

When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but became furious and shouted: "Without the war horse, I am not afraid of anyone!"

Zhou Qi continued to be aggressive: "You are not afraid of the people in the world, but you dare not fight against people in the tent?"

Lu Bu was furious, and shouted: "Who said that a certain dare not?"

"Clap clap clap!"

Zhou Qi clapped hastily, then pointed at Dian Wei and said, "Dian Jun, let's fight with Lu Feng first and see who wins and who loses?"

"only!"

Before Li Ru had time to interrupt, Dian Wei had already strode to Lu Bu's side with two iron halberds in hand.

"Follow first!"

Li Ru was still waiting to persuade, but he saw Lu Bu waved his left hand and said, "I know what's in my heart, so don't talk too much!"

Seeing this, Zhou Qi couldn't help laughing and said: "Move out all the sundries in the camp, and we retreat to the door to watch the two heroes fight!"

In the horse battle, Dian Wei may not be Lu Bu's opponent.

In infantry, Dian Wei has never lost.

It was precisely because Zhou Qi had grasped Lu Bu's haughty character that he fought against Dian Wei with the command of a fierce general.

"Please!"

Things in the tent were quickly cleared. Dian Wei and Lu Bu greeted each other, then they shouted loudly and rushed towards each other almost at the same time.

As the saying goes: one inch long, one inch strong.

The Fangtian painted halberd in Lu Bu's hand is a long weapon, and it was originally born for horse fighting, but when used by Lu Bu in foot combat, it is still unstoppable.

Relying on the advantage of having a long weapon, Lu Bu directly swept towards Dian Wei.

The two iron halberds in Dian Wei's hands were shorter and could not reach Lu Bu at this time. Unless he retreated to avoid Lu Bu's powerful and heavy sweep, he would have to take this attack forcefully.

As the saying goes: When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins.

If Dian Wei chooses to retreat at this time, then with Lu Bu's martial arts and precise grasp of the battle situation, the next attack will definitely be like a storm.

Lu Bu is armed with a long weapon. Once he gets the upper hand, it will be difficult for Dian Wei to bully him.

never thought.

Facing Lu Bu's powerful and heavy sweep, Dian Wei did not dodge or dodge. He directly waved the two iron halberds in his hands and caught the Fangtian Painted Halberd in Lu Bu's hands.

"clang!"

The harsh sound of metal and metal chiming came, and Zhou Qi felt his ears buzzing even when he was standing at the door of the camp.

When Lu Bu saw that his preemptive halberd was so easily blocked by Dian Wei, and he didn't even use his full strength, he couldn't help being shocked.

Lu Bu prides himself on being born with supernatural powers. Although he has great martial arts skills, in the past, when he fought with others, even if he did not display superb martial arts, he was almost unstoppable with just his brute force.

He never thought that today he would meet such a formidable enemy as Dian Wei.

However, Dian Wei blocked Lu Bu's attack, rotated his hands vigorously, and directly pushed away Lu Bu's Fangtian Painted Halberd. Then he stepped forward, preparing to fight Lu Bu personally.

Lu Bu reacted very quickly, and took two steps back. Fang Tian drew a tricky arc with his halberd in his hand, unexpectedly avoiding Dian Wei's double iron potion, and went straight to Dian Wei's throat.

Seeing this, Dian Wei had no choice but to slow down and continue to deal with Lu Bu.

In this way, two top generals from the Three Kingdoms period started a peak showdown in Zhou Qi's coach's camp.

Lu Bu's martial arts had indeed reached an advanced level, but his strength was still somewhat weakened by foot combat.

After these years of fighting and precipitation, Dian Wei has reached the state of mellowness, besides being extremely fierce, he can also be tactful, even if he fights for a long time, he can always maintain his physical strength.

In this way, the two fought more than a hundred times in the tent.

After all, Dian Wei was superior, and after getting close to Lu Bu, he killed every step of the way, causing Lu Bu, who was wielding Fang Tian's painted halberd, to retreat steadily and survived.

"laugh!"

Dian Wei leaned close to his body again, first supported Lu Bu's Fang Tian's painting halberd with his right halberd, and then swung his left halberd with lightning speed.

Even though Lu Bu reacted very quickly, there was still a blood mark on his face.

As the saying goes: An inch short, an inch dangerous.

At this time, Lu Bu couldn't help feeling extremely aggrieved. Ever since Dian Wei got close to him, Lu Bu's Fang Tian Painting Halberd could only use seven points of strength.

Otherwise, Dian Wei would not have been able to hold the weapon in his hand with one hand.

Although Li Ru was not proficient in martial arts, standing at the door of the camp, he could feel that Lu Bu was at a disadvantage, and he almost escaped death every time.

This time, if Lu Bu had reacted a little slower, he might have been furious on the spot.

He was worried that Lu Bu had made a mistake, so he immediately said to Zhou Qi: "Both generals are powerful generals in the world. If the fight continues, one of them will inevitably lose."

"Why don't we count it as a tie if the contest ends at the end?"

Zhou Qi looked at Li Ru with a half-smile, and said, "Can King Chen Liu follow me to Yangzhou?"

Although Li Ru was unwilling in every possible way, he was also worried that Lu Bu might be at fault, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "Since the late emperor entrusted General Chariots and Cavalry to protect King Chenliu, how dare we refuse?"

Zhou Qi couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard this.

"Where is Zhongkang?"

"The end is here!"

Zhou Qi looked at Xu Chu and said, "You come in and separate Dian Jun from Lu Bu."

Zhou Qi is also diligent in practicing martial arts. Although he is not as good as the world's first-class generals, he can also see that the fight between Dian Wei and Lu Bu has become fierce and inseparable.

If you are not careful, one person will die.

Although Dian Wei has the upper hand now, if he is not careful, he may be killed by Lu Bu.

At this time, let the two people take the initiative to separate. If one of them deliberately slows down for half a beat, it is very likely that the other person will be killed.

It was for this reason that Zhou Qi asked Xu Chu to intervene and separate the two.

"only!"

Xu Chu received Zhou Qi's order, and immediately walked towards the two people who were fighting with a solemn expression.

"clang!"

But it was said that Dian Wei and Lu Bu had almost entered the state of selflessness. They only had each other in their eyes, and they all used what they had learned in their lives to fight hard.

Suddenly, the burly Xu Chu entered the battle group and separated the two from an extremely tricky angle.

The main target of Xu Chu's sword was Lu Bu.

He believed that Dian Wei would try his best to stop his attack after seeing his attack, so he left an opening for Dian Wei.

But Xu Chu didn't really believe in Lu Bu, so he focused all his attention on Lu Bu.

Sure enough, when Dian Wei saw that it was Xu Chu who had entered the battle group, he forcibly restrained his twin iron halberds, and then hurriedly withdrew from the battle circle.

Lu Bu only felt numbness in his arm, and Fang Tian almost lost his hand on the halberd, and couldn't help but feel horrified.

In normal times, Lu Bu would not be afraid of Xu Chu.

But he was fighting hard with Dian Wei, and his attention was focused on Dian Wei, so Xu Chu took advantage of him and was directly attacked on his own weakness.

It was for this reason that Lu Bu almost failed to hold the weapon.

Xu Chu gained momentum with one move, but instead of taking advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, he jumped out of the battle circle in a hurry.

Just when Dian Wei and Lu Bu were a little confused, they saw Zhou Qi clapping his hands and laughing, saying, "Wonderful, really wonderful!"

"Both of them are fierce generals in the world. There is no winner or loser in today's competition, okay?"

Although Dian Wei had the upper hand, since Zhou Qi had already spoken, he naturally would not say anything more.

As for Lu Bu, after being suppressed by Dian Wei, there were many dangers. Seeing Zhou Qi save him, he would not be bored.

He first took a deep look at Dian Wei, then at Xu Chu with a little fear, and finally bowed slightly to Zhou Qi, then dragged Fang Tian's painted halberd to Li Ru's side.

Seeing that Lu Bu was safe and sound, Li Ru could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He turned to look at Zhou Qi, and said, "I can send King Chen Liu, but there are two conditions."

Zhou Qi smiled and said: "But it doesn't matter."

Li Ru said: "The first condition is that General Chariot and Cavalry must release Sikong's family."

Zhou Qi nodded and said: "I have no intention of embarrassing them. As long as King Chen Liu is sent here, I will personally send the old lady and Sikong's daughter and son-in-law out of the camp."

Zhou Qi's words have another meaning: If King Chen Liu doesn't send him over, I won't let him go.

Li Ru took a deep look at Zhou Qi, and then the corners of his mouth curled up, saying: "As for the second condition, there is no loss for the chariot general, but it is a good thing for the court."

Zhou Qi frowned slightly, and asked, "Sir, it aroused my curiosity, but it's okay."

Li Ru smiled and said: "Dunhuang Gaiyuan's reputation spread throughout the country, and he was highly regarded by the late emperor. He was a loyal minister of the imperial court."

"Now that the former emperor has a great funeral, and the new emperor is succeeding, Luoyang is in dire straits, and the imperial court urgently needs talents like Gai Yuangu to assist the emperor."

"Sikong wants to ask Gai Yuangu to be the captain of Sili to help the court to calm down Luoyang. I don't know what the general Cheqi thinks?"

When Zhou Qi heard this, his brows furrowed, and there was a faint murderous look in his eyes.

To put it bluntly, Li Ru was worried that after Zhou Qi left, he would continue to fight against Dong Zhuo, and might even support King Chen Liu as emperor, so he wanted to keep Gai Xun as a hostage.

Gai Xun's kindness to Zhou Qi is as important as a mountain, if Zhou Qi ignores Gai Xun's life and death, his reputation will be ruined, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Once Zhou Qi wanted to save Gai Xun, he would not dare to fight Dong Zhuo again.

As long as Gai Xun is left behind, Zhou Qi's life will be pinched and he can only bow to Dong Zhuo.

Of course, with Zhou Qi leading the army outside, Dong Zhuo didn't dare to go too far, let alone harm Gai Xun, otherwise no one dared to face Zhou Qi who was ruthless.

"I agree!"

Just when Zhou Qi was about to explode, a slightly tired voice came from outside the camp.

Everyone looked up and saw that the person coming was none other than Gai Xun and Gai Yuangu.

At this time, Gai Xun looked much more haggard than before. It can be seen that the death of the first emperor hit Gai Xun very hard.

He was highly regarded by the late emperor, and originally planned to put down the Liangzhou rebellion, so he returned to Luoyang to persuade the late emperor to be diligent in government, love the people, and revive the Han Dynasty.

I never thought that that farewell was actually a farewell.

"gentlemen……"

Zhou Qi was in a hurry when he heard the words, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Gai Xun's hand.

He looked at Zhou Qi and said, "King Chenliu needs Ziyi's protection. Only in this way can he live up to the late emperor's entrustment."

"Your Majesty also needs someone to help you."

"Ziyi leads the army outside, and I am assisting His Majesty in the palace, so Dong Zhuo dare not go too far."

Seeing Zhou Qi hesitate to speak, Gai Xun said firmly: "I have made up my mind. I hope Ziyi will not forget his original intention and be able to revive the Han Dynasty!"

Zhou Qi couldn't help but feel his eyes sore when he heard this, but he didn't say anything more after all.

In this way, Li Ru first took Gai Xun away, and Dong Zhuo was also afraid of Zhou Qi, and Gai Xun was already quite famous, so he and Sili were directly canonized, which can be regarded as a high position.

King Chenliu was sent to Zhou Qi's camp, and Dong Zhuo's mother, daughter, and son-in-law were also sent to Li Ru personally by Zhou Qi, and they confessed to the three of them.

In the camp, the eight-year-old Chenliu King Liu Xie looked at the heavily armored soldiers around him and felt a little panic in his heart.

In just a few months, his father, Jian Shuo and Empress Dowager Dong, who loved him most, all died one after another.

Although Liu Xie, who is only eight years old, is a noble prince, he is like a rootless duckweed, trembling and anxious every day.

Previously, Dong Zhuo was going to abolish and establish, Liu Xie was not only not happy, but a little scared.

Dong Zhuo can destroy his 16-year-old brother Liu Bian, and he can destroy himself who is only eight years old.

Even if an eight-year-old child ascends the throne and becomes an emperor, he is just a puppet in the hands of others.

If you obey, you can continue to act as a puppet.

If you don't obey, you may die inexplicably.

Although Liu Xie is only eight years old, he has also heard about the deeds of the previous emperors, and it is not uncommon to know such things.

Even his father had to be a puppet for nearly ten years before he fully gained control and was able to do what he liked.

Zhou Qi walked up to Liu Xie, half-kneeled on the ground, and said, "The late emperor entrusted His Highness to me, and I will protect His Highness well!"

"Your Highness, please follow me to Yangzhou!"

After paying homage, Zhou Qi personally helped Liu Xie mount his horse. Then, for Liu Xie's safety, he rode with him and led his [-] troops toward Yangzhou in a mighty manner.

It wasn't until he left the territory of Sili that Zhou Qi was completely at ease. He asked someone to find a comfortable carriage, and summoned two handsome maids to serve Liu Xie along the way.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Yangzhou, Jiujiang County, Shouchun, Governor's Office.

Ever since the world was in chaos, thieves appeared everywhere, and the imperial court continued to suppress them, the power of the governor of the state and the governor of the county began to rise continuously, and there was a faint tendency to evolve into a prince.

As the governor of Yangzhou, Chen Wen's status has also risen, and he also enjoys his current life very much.

only.

Not every one of the six counties in Yangzhou listened to Chen Wen's orders. Some governors even supported their own troops, which also caused Chen Wen a headache.

Fortunately, the new governor of Jiujiang is a famous scholar and a great scholar.

Since Bian Rang came to Jiujiang to take up his post, Chen Wen invited Bian Rang to talk about scriptures and Taoism every now and then, and he was very happy.

No, Bian Rang was invited again today, and he brought a young hero, who was the magistrate of Hefei at the young age, and after more than a year, managed Hefei in an orderly manner with remarkable achievements.

The most important thing is that this young hero is not only a disciple of Cai Yong, the great scholar of the dynasty, but also a descendant of the Gu family of the four major families in Jiangdong.

The influence of the four Jiangdong families in Yangzhou is beyond doubt.

If Chen Wen wants to govern Yangzhou well, he must get the support of the four major families in Jiangdong.

So when Chen Wen learned that Bian Rang had brought Gu Yong this time, he was even more overjoyed, packed up his clothes, and went to greet the two of them.

While Chen Wen was discussing classics and Taoism with Bian Rang and Gu Yong, a confidant suddenly came to report that the imperial court had dismissed Chen Wen from the position of governor of Yangzhou and appointed Zhou Qi, the general of chariots and cavalry and the Hou of Anfeng County, as the new governor of Yangzhou.

After a while, General Cheqi will come to take up his post.

Hearing this, Chen Wen couldn't help being stunned on the spot.

He didn't expect that it wasn't long before the governor's power was increased, and he hadn't completely controlled Yangzhou, and he was actually dismissed from office by the court.

Chen Wen was somewhat unhappy.

　Today I need to update a new map. Not only do I need to find historical celebrities in Yangzhou, but I also need to find out who was working in various places in Yangzhou during this time period. It makes my head hurt, so it is even later.

　　For example, the official positions of Chen Wen, Bian Rang, and Gu Yong during this period were almost all obtained by finding a needle in a haystack.

　　After this investigation, I found that there are many celebrities in Yangzhou, and there are not a few of them who are awesome.

　　Brothers can also help me look it up when they have time, and I will inevitably have omissions.

　　I haven't found out who the prefect of Kuaiji was in 190, but I only know that he will be Wang Lang in the future.

　　Finally, I would like to thank Lao Tie's "Autumn Equinox 1257" and "Weird Spider" for their 500 starting coin rewards, as well as the brothers "Kemour North Nose" for their 1000 starting coin rewards.

　　Mehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
