Lu's relatives

Chapter 632 Dark Gap, Which of the Three States Belongs ([-])
The current governor of Jizhou is Yuan Shang.On the surface, in Yecheng, people with outstanding resourcefulness and political strategy, such as Tian Feng and Xin Ba, were Zuo Yi, and fierce generals such as Wu Youwen Chou Zhang Jaw were minions, and they were all loyal officials of the Yuan family.In addition, Jizhou is backed by mountains on two sides, facing the sea on the other, and the advantage of the nine-curved Yellow River as a natural moat. If we can form strong external support and implement benevolent government internally, we can learn from Yuan Shao's half-year road ahead and half of Hebei. Hebei, but if it is just to repeat the glory of the Yuan family, it does not seem to be a difficult task.

After all, since Yuan Shao's sudden death, even though Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan, and even hundreds of thousands of black mountain bandits have all coveted Jizhou, but until now, this Jizhou is still surnamed Yuan, which is very telling.There are many people who have such partial thoughts, but some people are definitely not included. For example, Yuan Shang's biological mother, Mrs. Liu, is now called Mrs. Liu.

When Yuan Shao was still around, Mrs. Liu showed her political skills.No matter how soft-hearted Yuan Shao is, he is still a hero for a while, and he understands the rules related to the inheritance of the Yuan family!Even Yuan Shao himself was able to seize the status of the first son of Yuan Shu's family because he was adopted by the eldest son of the Yuan family, and he was able to inherit the position of the head of the Yuan family.Naturally, he would not let his sons kill each other for this kind of thing.This point can be seen from Yuan Shao's early arrangements for letting Yuan Tan contact the army to establish his prestige, and only letting his second son Yuan Xi be familiar with the political strategy as an assistant.

And just after Yuan Shaona accepted the Liu family and Yuan Shang, he was able to intentionally pass on the position of patriarch to Yuan Xiaosan, who was under fifteen at the time, before his death. Although there is something strange in it, it is enough to explain the Liu family. The strength of the invincible bedside wind for several years.Today, Yuan Shao's original territory is divided into two parts, and one part was "sold" by Yuan Tan to Cao Cao, while Jizhou is still in Yuan Shang's hands. Except for a few diehard members of the Yuan family, no one knows that because of this seemingly Jizhou, which is coveted by powerful enemies but not available, is originally the unobtrusive Liu family, so much effort has been made in it.

Whether it is to use stunning tactics to deal with all parties in exchange for an excuse to control Jizhou in name, or to take advantage of the time when Lu Bu was injured and had no time to look north, he tried his best to make friends with all parties in order to be comprehensive in Jizhou, and seize the opportunity to be with everyone. The so-called strong support is close at hand, and it can be seen that this beautiful woman who even wanted to attack Qin Xu after seeing her abandoned by Lu Bu, now, after several twists and turns, has obtained Yuan's important minister The approval of the government actually controlled Jizhou from behind.Therefore, Liu Bei came here this time, saying that he wanted to meet the old lady as an excuse, but it was actually a tacit understanding between each other.

Zhang Jai's efficiency is very high, coupled with Zhao Yun's dealing with it, just when Liu Bei was showing a brotherly love in the tent, Tian Feng, who came with Zhang Jai, brought a message from Mrs. Liu, please Liu Bei to meet.

This is actually not very polite.After all, Yuan Shang is now nominally speaking in Jizhou, and Liu Bei is also the master of the situation. He also had friction with the Yuan family because of Gongsun Zan's war with Yuan Shao. It's the right thing to say, no matter what you do, you should greet with polite greetings first, and you shouldn't use the banner to visit someone's widowed mother who is only [-] years old as soon as you come up.But in fact, whether it was Liu Bei's three brothers, or Tian Feng Zhang Jaw and other important officials of the Yuan family, they all seemed to have forgotten Liu Bei's identity and the so-called etiquette, which made it very smooth for Liu Bei to meet Liu and Yuan Shang's mother and son.

"You are that Liu Bei!?" It has been seven or eight years since Yuan Shao's feudal lords met for Dong, and Yuan Shang, who was only a baby boy back then, naturally has never seen this Han family who is said to be benevolent and righteous all over the world. On the contrary, when Yuan Shao fought Gongsun Zan in the past, he deliberately honed Yuan Shang's commanding skills and kept Yuan Shang by his side. He had seen many battle reports of Yuan's own army fighting with Liu Bei's troops.Now that time has passed, the former mortal enemy now seems to be an ally soon. Even if Yuan Shang has experienced too much ugliness in the world, after all, his age may not be so deep in the city, so when he saw Liu Bei, he blurted out before Liu could stop him asked.

"I've met Yuan Jizhou, yes, that's Liu Bei!" Liu Bei replied with a smile, not caring about Yuan Shang's tone.Now that Liu Bei is over forty years old, how could such a little doll like Yuan Shang be able to provoke his mind so easily, he just thought it was to amuse the children.

"Shanger, don't be rude! In the past, when Duke Xuande followed your father, Duke Chu, and defeated Dong Zhuo's rebels, you were less than ten years old. You should be treated like an uncle and nephew!" Compared to Yuan Shang, Liu Shi would not regard the person in front of him who seemed to be smiling no matter what the situation was, with no expression of emotion or anger, as a kind person.When Yuan Shao was there in the past, he commented on this person who once made all the limelight in Hulaoguan, but secretly greatly damaged the face of the Yuan family, saying that this person has the ability to face the collapse of Mount Tai without changing his face. It should not be underestimated, but the evaluation belongs to the evaluation. At that time, Liu Bei was just living under the command of Gongsun Zan, and he got the seat by relying on the name of a Han family clan. It was really difficult for Yuan Shaofa, who was already the leader of the heroes at that time.But now, Yuan Shao's original private words came true. Even Liu Bei is now in a mess. There is a rift between his relationship with his benefactor, Sun Zan, and he is worried about by Lu Bu and Cao Cao. Lv Bu, Cao Cao and even Gongsun Zan couldn't do anything about it, which shows his ability.Right now, Jizhou seems to be in the center of the whirlpool, and it has become a balance point to accommodate the three forces of Lu Bu, Cao Cao, and Gongsun Zan. It is relatively calm, but after all, it still has to live on the nose of others.Such a comparison is far worse than Liu Bei's.If an offensive and defensive alliance can be reached with Liu Bei, even everyone who knows about it, including the Liu family, has a premonition that this is seeking skin from a tiger, but in the face of the fact that the Southern Expedition stage has basically been completed, they gradually shift their attention to Liu Bei. For Lu Bu in the northern land and Cao Cao's forces, even if they drink poison to quench their thirst, they must try their best to attract one more ally to count as one.

"Yes! Uncle Liu, it's my nephew who is being rude! For the sake of my young and ignorant nephew, don't be so fussy with my nephew." Sensing the hint in Liu's eyes, I have suffered a lot these years. Yuan Shang, however, had long since left Lao Shizi's face out of the clouds. As soon as Liu's words fell, Dang even stood up, bowed to the ground and said.

"Don't dare! Yuan Jizhou is trying to break evil against someone!" Liu Bei himself is actually a person who doesn't take face very seriously, not to mention that although his old Liu's qualifications are indeed old, after all, he himself He was just the prefect of Nanpi recommended by Gongsun Zan, and his official position was nothing more than a fifth-rank Fuguo general.Although Yuan Shang was young, he had benefited from Lu Bu's secret struggle with Cao Cao. He was the master of Jizhou, and their identities were different. Yuan Shang could have naturally regarded Liu's words just as a lesson, and there was no need to be so solemn Apologies for the matter.But Yuan Shang really did it sincerely, at least on the surface, in front of important ministers like Liu Shi and Tian Feng Zhang Jaw, making Liu Bei, who sneaked a glance at Liu Shi, the instigator of this incident, feel a little bit on guard in his heart Come.Immediately, he turned sideways again and again, avoiding Yuan Shang's full salute.

"Yes! Lord Xuande! We are all in Hebei, and you and Benchu ​​have the friendship of fighting against national thieves together in the past. Shang'er deserves to call you like that! Besides, Shang'er hopes to watch and help Xuande Lord in the future. To protect the land of Hebei from being acquired by traitors and poisoning the people. Isn’t it for this purpose that Duke Xuande came here?” Seeing Liu Bei dodging Yuan Shang’s gift, the Liu family did not give Liu Bei a chance to turn around, said.

"What Mrs. Yuan said is true! In the past, when Chugong was here, others did not dare to covet Hebei. Now that Chugong is unlucky, Hebei is coveted by traitors, and everyone in Hebei is filled with righteous indignation. It should be us Work together, unite with the outside world, and restore the stability of Hebei to the big man!" Liu Bei is certainly a hero, but it is in controlling the situation of the big man and manipulating the hearts of the people, but he is not very familiar with these diplomatic rhetoric. Among the subordinates brought here this time, there are no eloquent people, and they themselves want to get to the point quickly.Moreover, Tian Feng, who was supposed to be the main person in charge of this negotiation, has not spoken yet, but he is entangled with these women and children. Liu Bei is also afraid that he will lose his words if he talks too much, so he imitates the example and also bows to Liu Shi On the ground, it was regarded as a salute, and said with a righteous look.

"Mr. Xuande's words are very true! I have heard for a long time that the name of Mr. Xuande's benevolence and righteousness has spread all over the world, and his loyalty to the emperor can be clearly demonstrated. Today, I heard what you said, and it is true!" What Yuan Shang's mother and son said made people feel righteous indignation, Liu Bei The words that followed were also impassioned. Tian Feng, who had been watching Liu Bei's fight with Yuan Shang's mother and son, seemed to have just remembered his duty, and said: "As Madam said, Hebei is the Hebei of the great Han, how can it be a separate establishment? The rebels of the emperor and those who are rebellious can get their hands on them! Duke Xuande only brought dozens of people to Yecheng this time, and paid homage to his wife and son, which shows his sincerity. Duke Xuande is righteous, and he is not afraid of the world. Here, I have already expressed the greatest sincerity, even if I am here at the beginning, I will be happy to drink with Xuande!"

"Huh?!" What Tian Feng said was like a mist, according to Liu Bei's level, in fact, he was lucky to hear about it.This is not a battle on the battlefield. There are two brothers who are fighting for themselves, and Liu Bei can only rely on himself.Therefore, even though Liu Bei seemed to have realized that there must be something in Tian Feng's words, after a little thought, he nodded and said: "Mr. Yuan Hao's words are very true! But they are also too ridiculous Thank you! I had some misunderstandings with Jizhou before, but as Mrs. Yuan said before, now that the enemy is at hand, how can the previous quarrels be compared to the current crisis? If you are not talented, you are willing to form an offensive and defensive alliance with Yuan Jizhou Alliance, let's meet together to resist the invading traitors, and desperately protect our territory of the Great Han."

"it is good!"
