Coincidentally!My name is Liu Bian

Chapter 94

Thoughtfully, before he could think of a natural answer, he heard a familiar voice saying:
"Your Highness, what are you thinking about?"

It's Zhang Yan.

After coming back to his senses, he looked at Zhang Yan and the large number of troops behind Zhang Yan. Technically speaking, they were Yellow Turban soldiers, plus a Guan Hai.Liu Bian couldn't help but feel numb: Fortunately, he knew that Zhang Yan had surrendered to the Han Dynasty, otherwise...otherwise, people might misunderstand what Zhang Yan wanted to do to him?
Don't you see how terrified the civilians of Nanpi County are to Zhang Yan. When they heard that Zhang Yan was coming, they ran back to their homes every second to hide... You can see how Zhang Yan's every move is to the civilians of Nanpi County. Abhorred.

At that time, Liu Bian, He Xian and other guards stood at the door of Prince Bohai's residence.

Liu Bian stared at Zhang Yan silently and asked instead of answering, "General Zhang Yan, why did you come to Nanpi City?"

"What's the matter? You don't welcome me?" Looking sideways at Liu Bian, Zhang Yan said that she had submitted to the Han Dynasty and the imperial court, but she was not very fond of him. There was a hint of contempt in her words, even though Liu Bian was the eldest son of the Han Dynasty emperor, "I am Just station in Nanpi City! If it weren't for you..."

Thinking of the embarrassing incident, Zhang Yan shut her mouth in time.

"Hmph!" Zhang Yan snorted heavily, "In short, I am no longer the leader of the Huangshan bandits. I just want to find a place to stay and re-operate and develop Nanpi County. Why can't I be stationed in Nanpi County?"

"But...but..." Liu Bianfeng was confused, "Isn't there a king in Nanpi County?"

"So, Zhang and I want to station more troops here?" Zhang Yan had a good reason, "Your Highness, you haven't been able to have an army yet, have you? - If I move to Nanpi County, wouldn't Your Highness? Is there an army?"

"Ah?" Liu Bian opened his mouth wide.

"Although most of them are Yellow Turban soldiers, their combat power cannot be underestimated!" Zhang Yan clasped her fists and smiled so carelessly, "As long as Your Highness agrees, Your Highness will soon have an army of no less than 10 troops.”

Liu Bian: "..."

Swallowing his saliva, Liu Bian wanted to refuse, but his body was honestly shouting: Say yes!Say yes quickly!Say yes quickly!
After calming down, Liu Bian said: "General Zhang Yan, why do you insist on settling in Nanpi County?... In other words, why do you want to come and join me?"

As soon as the voice fell, the scene was dead silent.

The people present looked at Liu Bian and then at Zhang Yan, their expressions hard to describe.

--Yes!That's right!

No matter how slow Liu Bian was, he could still tell that Zhang Yan wanted to defect.

So, here comes the question: Zhang Yan has already submitted to the imperial court, why does he still want to defect to Liu Bian?

"Your Highness, do you know where Nanpi County is located?" Zhang Yan asked coldly.

"This...Nanpi County is located in the mountains north of the Yellow River?" he answered tentatively.

"That's right!" Zhang Yan said quickly, stroking his palms, "His Majesty, who is far away in Luoyang, appointed me and promoted me to the rank of Lieutenant General to manage administrative and public security affairs in the mountainous areas north of the Yellow River... You see , this Nanpi County is the seat of Bohai County, and it is also located in the "mountainous area north of the Yellow River". In addition, the Nanpi City you govern is really good. Zhang lived in the Nanpi County cottage for a long time, so it's not like that. Do you want me to attract Zhang to send troops?
how? ——Your Highness, are you satisfied? "

Liu Bian: "..."

Liu Bian was almost fooled by Zhang Yan's roundabout statement.

Liu Bian said: "Why? General Zhang Yan, why do you insist on coming to this king instead of other counties? General Zhang Yan, you can go to other counties. It should be more suitable for you to show your skills there." ——Do you know..."

Frowning, Liu Bian stopped talking, not wanting to reveal important information about Luoyang to Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan looked at Liu Bian coldly and said unhappily: "Your Highness, you don't welcome me?!"

Liu Bian pursed his lips: To be honest, I don't welcome it... It's getting cold, and everyone has to spend the winter. When the fields can't grow vegetables and food, I plan to organize all the tenant farmers to train - winter training. , which can not only ensure that the tenant farmers keep fit, but also manage their time effectively and reasonably, and can also form an army that is loyal to themselves!

Moreover, when spring comes, everyone no longer needs to train troops and can just concentrate on farming.

So, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than accepting your Yellow Turban soldier?
——Who doesn’t know that the Yellow Turban Soldiers are a group of thieves, most of whom have unclean hands? If they commit the old habit of robbing and taking advantage, wouldn’t they be causing trouble for themselves?

Furthermore, no matter how powerful these yellow scarf soldiers are, they are still loyal to you, Zhang Yan?
Therefore, if there is any war in Nanpi County, who should give the command of the Yellow Turban soldiers? ——I am not good at leading troops in battle, but Yuan, Cao, Liu and others are good at fighting. But will the other party agree to lead an army of traitors?After going around and around, aren't you still in charge in the end?
Therefore, why should I accept these [-] Yellow Turban soldiers?What's the point?
——In addition to increasing the burden on food, I think it will do more harm than good, and I really don’t want it!

It's a pity that Liu Bian couldn't say these words.

With a tigerish face, Liu Bian said: "...General Zhang Yan, you have been appointed as the "general in trouble", how can I dare to order you?I'm not afraid of other people's jokes, and I also ask General Zhang Yan not to make fun of me again.

I do remember that Zhangwu County is vast and sparsely populated. It is close to the Bohai Sea and adjacent to Youzhou... How about General Zhang Yan settle in Zhangwu County? ——It can be considered as helping me in a side way!

Don’t be afraid of General Zhang Yan’s jokes. There are many Yi people in Youzhou, and Zhangwu County is one of the northernmost counties in Bohai County..."

The look in his eyes was so insincere that Liu Bian almost said bluntly: You want to cause harm...cough!If you want to protect the county, just go to Zhangwu County! !

Nanpi County has just started, and I really can’t stand the trouble!

As if she understood Liu Bian's thoughts, Zhang Yan calmed down her anger, chuckled, and said arrogantly: "It's up to you! I will lead the troops to Zhangwu County... Don't regret it."

You won’t regret it!
Liu Bian thought to himself: I really hope you mess up Zhangwu County. Then...

Bowing, Liu Bian said goodbye to Zhang Yan and Guan Hai, and watched as Zhang Yan and Guan Hai headed to Zhangwu County with a large number of Yellow Turban soldiers... maybe?
In short, watching Zhang Yan, Guan Hai and others walk away, Liu Bian patted his chest and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, Nanpi County ushered in a golden period of peace and development: due to the influx of a large number of people, Nanpi County had no shortage of manpower. It was necessary to build cities, houses, and brick houses; it was also necessary to build roads and trade. , taking trolleys; what about markets, public security, cooking food, etc., studied and studied them all, and took specific actions to make Nanpi County look magnificent——

Now, Nanpi County changes drastically every day, which makes Liu Bian extremely happy!

Unfortunately, the good times don't last long.

On this day, a carriage came to Nanpi County. In the carriage sat a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man wore a hat and dark blue cotton clothes. His facial features were ordinary, except for a pair of eyes, which were particularly special. greedy.

There is no other reason: the middle-aged man opened the curtain of his car and looked outside. What he saw was that the fields were no longer barren, and there were actually farmers cultivating - no, no, no!It’s not correct to say it’s farming!To be precise, farmers relied on oxen to plow their fields.

Passing through the countryside, the carriage clattered forward and passed one or two markets——

market?

How can there be any market in such a dilapidated small town?

Even if there is a market, the goods are probably not popular, right?

With this idea in mind, the middle-aged man ordered someone to stop the carriage and go to the market to explore...

Suddenly, the middle-aged man was slapped in the face!
This, what is this? !

——Is it ceramic? !
Fine ceramics? !
Look at this pattern, look at this style, look at this color...it all shows that this item is very rare, so it must be of high price!

The middle-aged man's eyes widened and he said subconsciously: "I bought this! How much does it cost?!"

"Three thousand dollars." The merchant stretched out his hand.

The middle-aged man paid, picked up the goods, and left without saying a word.

Then, the middle-aged man went to the market and spent a lot of money, buying many valuable items.

In the end, the middle-aged man made a purchase and left with a full load.Little did they know that after the middle-aged man left, a group of vendors whispered to each other:
"The fat sheep is gone, what a pity! I haven't made enough money yet?"

"Just be content! You raised the price of ceramics worth [-] yuan to [-] yuan...you can afford it."

"What does this mean? That piece of ceramic was made by Master Yuan Yi. What does a mere three thousand dollars mean?"

"Ah?! Then you just..."

"Tsk, if I hadn't been too careless and accidentally damaged Master Yuan Yi's art——"

"What a pity, brother!"

"Stop saying anything and report to His Highness immediately that there are strangers in the market today!"

...The middle-aged man sat in the carriage again, his eyes full of calculations: I had never known that Nanpi County was so wealthy, and it seemed like it was time - grinning, the middle-aged man was extremely excited.

With the clatter of horse hooves, the middle-aged man slowly arrived... near the Bohai Prince's residence.

Getting off the carriage dissatisfied, the middle-aged man, surrounded by twelve strong men, came to the door of Prince Bohai's residence and said to the guards guarding the door: "I am Xia Yun, from Luoyang! By your Majesty's order, I specially went to Bohai County to defend the decree to the Prince of Bohai - why don't you report the letter?!"

The middle-aged man said the last reprimand very loudly.

It's a pity that no one understands.

There are only two guards guarding the gate of the mansion, but looking at the two of them, they are still fearless in the face of dozens of troops!

Xia Yun laughed angrily.

If it weren't for King Bohai's sake, Xia Yun almost wanted to capture the two guards on the spot.

After thinking for a while, Xia Yun remembered his mission, and suddenly lost his sense of awe, and said, "What are you doing standing up? You haven't opened the door yet!"

The implication is that we must use force to break in!

The twelve strong men didn't say much, and rushed forward with a roar, pretending to kick the door hard.

At this moment, the expressions of the two guards finally changed, and they said angrily: "Stop! Do you know who lives in this mansion?"

"No matter who he is, I'm going to smash this door down today!" Xia Yun waved his hand provocatively.

At this time, the twelve strong men had no scruples and knocked on the door together!

The two guards looked at each other in confusion. They estimated that they were no match for these strong men, so they quietly ran away...

As for Xia Yun, he focused all his attention on the twelve strong men, and was deliberately letting go of the departure of the two guards.

The two guards quickly ran away, bypassed the road, climbed over the wall and jumped into the Bohai Prince's mansion. They found He Xian and other guards, and told He Xian about Xia Yun's incident, and He Xian quickly reported to Liu Bian...

Liu Bian blinked when he heard this.

"Your Highness." Xun You, as a staff member of the general, was talking freely with Liu Bian at the moment. Unfortunately, he was interrupted again... After hearing the report from the two guards, Xun You immediately realized that something was wrong and said, "— -coming!"

With a chill in his heart, Liu Bian looked at Xun You steadily, knowing he understood what Xun You meant.

In fact, without Xun You's reminder, Liu Bian probably would not have thought of this: Xia Yun...Xia Yun was "ordered" to poison him, and the person behind this was either the Han Emperor or the Empress Dowager Dong!
However, Xun You felt that Empress Dowager Dong was more likely.

As for the Han Emperor, he probably played a role in fueling the flames.

Liu Bian: "..."

Liu Bian felt that Xun You had a very thoughtful idea: since he had woken up in advance, Liu Bian would not be too sad or resentful if he heard any orders from the Emperor of Han to poison him, and could just deal with the matter calmly.

Standing up, Liu Bian said: "This man is so bold, he dared to break into my Bohai King's mansion... This king will meet for a while! Mr. Xun, are you coming?"

"Dare you disobey me?" Xun You cupped his hands.

So, while the officials were busy, Liu Bian, Xun You, He Xian and other five guards were quietly waiting for Xia Yun's arrival - that's right!Liu Bian sent the two guards who tipped off the information to find Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei... Who allowed Liu Bei and others to have thousands of soldiers?
Naturally, no seedlings can be left behind.

He Miao is also in charge of more than 100 cavalry and has a certain amount of combat power, which should not be underestimated.

Everything was ready, Liu Bian and others waited for Xia Yun's arrival.

Xia Yun came to Liu Bian, looked at Liu Bian intently, and ordered twelve strong men to surround Liu Bian and others, making sure that the other party could not resist, and then said:

"Shihou, please make it easy for me to find you."

Xun You, He Xian and others were furious and shouted: "How brave! You are actually rude to His Highness!"

Xia Yun squinted at Xun You, He Xian and the others, without taking them seriously, and said with a smile: "You are so rude! I represent His Majesty——

Look, what is this?

Why don't you kneel down and listen to the order? "

After saying that, Xia Yun took out a document from his sleeve and looked at Liu Bian with a condescending look.

Lifting his eyelids, Liu Bian said: "Who are you?"

"I am Xia Yun!" Xia Yun emphasized his tone, "Shi Hou, please listen to the order——"

"I am the governor of Bohai and the king of Bohai, not the Marquis of Shi!" Liu Bian said coldly, delaying time calmly.

"I don't care what you are, just listen quickly!" Xia Yun ordered impatiently.

Liu Bian refused and said again: "Who do you think you are, how dare you be rude to me!"

"You!" Xia Yun's face sank and he ordered around, "Come here, arrest all these guys!"

"What?"

When he first heard the words "General", Xia Yun was obviously startled and quickly realized Xun You's identity... But what's the use? ——As long as Shi Hou dies, no matter how powerful the general and the queen are, they will be useless!

Thinking about this, Xia Yun lost his patience. When he confirmed that Liu Bian and his party were unable to act, he opened the document and said coldly: "Prince Bian, the King of Bohai, and also the governor of Bohai, has committed misdeeds during his tenure and cannot be repaid by his superiors. The country cannot appease the people..."

Bah bah bah, the document is full of reprimands for Liu Bian, so direct that Liu Bian cannot hold his head up.

Finally, Xia Yun announced:
"According to His Majesty's order, Prince Bian will be escorted back to Luoyang..."
