All Heavens Hongmeng Tree

Cao Cao thought about it, and that was all he could do.

With the sign of King Hongnong in front of them, they could ignore Dong Zhuo's imperial decree, lest Dong Zhuo point fingers at them in the name of righteousness.

Although Dong Zhuo can't interfere with the heroes of Kanto, but he has a righteous reputation.

Liu Xi was very happy to win over Cao Cao, which was equivalent to removing a formidable enemy who was competing for the world.

When the general situation in the world is settled, he does not believe that Cao Cao can go back.

What's more, he is also an authentic descendant of the Liu family. How can he not sit still in the world he has conquered?

He negotiated with Cao Cao, temporarily not letting the heroes know the news of welcoming back the King of Hongnong, lest the princes with ulterior motives such as Yuan Shi come to calculate and cause trouble.

Back in Luoyang, the city of Luoyang was in ruins and the people were displaced.

On the other hand, Yuan Shao and other allied princes were holding a high-level meeting, talking loudly, and celebrating the defeat of Dong Zhuo.

Cao Cao was so angry that they scolded them.

Yuan Shu sneered back, laughing at his defeat in Dong Zhuo's hands and the loss of troops and generals.

The two sides parted unhappily.

Afterwards, Sun Jian was questioned by Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others because of his private possession of the jade seal. Sun Jian naturally refused to admit it.

It turned out that when Sun Jian was fighting the fire in Luoyang City, he got a jade seal from the body of a palace maid.

This jade seal is not the jade seal of the country, but the seal of the emperor. It is the most commonly used token among the six seals of the emperor. It was mistaken by Sun Jian and others for the jade seal of the country, and it was secretly hidden.

However, the news still leaked, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others asked for it, but Sun Jian naturally denied it.

If it wasn't for the other princes to stop them, they would almost have been on fire at the beginning.

Sun Jian became angry and took the lead in leading the army back to Jiangdong.

So the allied army of the princes disbanded and went back to their respective houses.

Liu Xi gathered the refugees in Luoyang City and moved them all to Taishan County.

Anyway, Taishan County has a surplus of food because of the cultivation of high-yield crops, which just happened to bring them over to enrich the population.

After returning to Taishan County, Liu Xi set up Liu Bian's brand.

Said that the emperor fell into the hands of Dong Zhuo, and the Chang'an court was a puppet dynasty, with Liu Bian as the regent, and another court was established, and Liu Xie was respected as the emperor, but he refused to recognize the Chang'an court.

Cao Cao was the first to respond and announced that his forces would be incorporated into the Taishan County court.

The rest of the princes were silent, watching the situation and busy merging their territories.

For example, Yuan Shu came up with the idea of ​​Han Fu in Jizhou, Yuan Shao formed an alliance with Liu Biao to stop Sun Jian and snatch the jade seal.

The regent, Liu Bian, appointed Liu Xi as Taiwei and general, and the governor of the world; Yuan Shao as Situ, in charge of internal affairs; Cao Cao, as Sigong, in charge of criminal law and fortifications, as Situ's deputy.

Taiwei, Situ, and Sikong are collectively called the Three Dukes.

In fact, Yuan Shao's position was only a false title, and he would never come to Mount Tai to perform his duties.

When Liu Xi and the others were on their way back, Huang Rong was ready, so the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans suddenly broke out.

There are millions of troops. Although they are basically a rabble, there is no elite, but the momentum is very terrifying.

After all, the prefects of the Qingzhou counties did not have many soldiers and horses, and there were not many elite soldiers.

For a time, the Yellow Turbans even broke through several counties, and the momentum was so great that it attracted the attention of the whole world.

Kong Rong and other prefects sent more than ten letters for help in a row, and their tone became more and more humble and urgent, expressing the meaning of complete surrender.

So Liu Xi ordered Qi's army to go out to Qingzhou, and almost all of his subordinates were dispatched. After all, he planned to completely occupy and integrate Qingzhou after he captured it.

Immediately after Liu Xi set out on the expedition, Liu Dai was instigated by Yuan Shu and unexpectedly wanted to attack Taishan County.

Of course, his slogan was to rescue King Hongnong, who had been coerced by Liu Xi, and restore the government.

It's just that when he hadn't acted, he was detected by Liu Xi's secret agent.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Therefore, when he was about to make a sneak attack, he was ambushed by the defenders of Taishan County in the middle of the road.

Huang Zhong took a team of soldiers and horses to pretend to be the Yellow Turbans, set up an ambush in favorable terrain, and used the formation to break Liu Dai's army.

Liu Dai was shot and killed by Huang Zhong in the chaos of the army.

Later, Liu Xi appointed Chen Gong as the prefect of Yanzhou, and Huang Zhong as the general of the side.

Liu Xi led his troops into Qingzhou, and the Yellow Turban looked down at the wind.

All of this was originally planned, and all the senior officials of the Yellow Turban Rebellion Army received Huang Rong's orders and secretly contacted Liu Xi.

And those who were ambitious and determined to resist were all betrayed by their accomplices and easily annihilated by Liu Xi's army.

Liu Xi's expedition was like a parade, and he swept all the way.

Until more than ten days later, the entire Qingzhou was completely swept away.

The original prefects of Qingzhou, etc. were transferred by him, either to serve in the temporary imperial court in Mount Tai, or to Yanzhou.

Qingzhou officials were all re-selected. Most of them were officials from Taishan County, Liu Xi's old subordinates, some local scholars, and some students from Taishan Academy.
