Chapter 354 What’s wrong?
As for what Yang Biao said, Lu Bu didn't know whether it would happen in the future. He just wanted to do his best to prevent it from happening and to give her as much security as he could.
He said, "I have read the biography of Queen Lu. She married Liu Bang, an old bachelor, at a young age, and worked hard for him all her life. The Lu family built half of the Liu family for his family. She killed the princes and kings for him, protected the country, and took on the responsibility of the family.
Despite all the bad reputation, what did she get in the end? Liu Bang wanted to abolish the direct line and establish a concubine. His own son died early. Even her grandson was deposed and executed by the courtiers after her death. Even her elder sister’s children were not killed.
Can be spared."
"Are you afraid that I will follow Lu Pheasant's footsteps in the future? Do you want to take a concubine?" Zhang Mo couldn't help but froze as she leaned on his chest. Unless Lu Bu took a concubine and gave birth to a bastard, it would be impossible for her to follow in Lu Pheasant's footsteps.
Lu Bu said quickly, "No, no!"
"Then why do you say these things?"
Lu Bu said, "I'm ten years older than you. I will definitely take the first step in the future. I'm afraid that in the future, some courtiers will treat you like they did to Empress Lu. You seem to be ruthless, but in fact you are the most merciful. So I think
I'll let you now
Cultivate a group of cronies. Civil servants have their own integrity and filial piety. Those who are loyal to you are mostly mine. When I am here, they will listen to you. If I die, some of them may be replaced by others.
bribed to fight against you."
"I have experienced court affairs in and out of my dreams for two lifetimes. Once rights are involved, many people will become different from before. Ziyi, Anren, Zhongkang, Gongming and other people who are loyal to you, I think
Let you promote and reuse them, including Wenyuan and Ziyan
You can trust me. Even if I die in the future, most of these civil servants and generals who founded the country will be yours. No one dares to touch your status. Even their descendants, I want you to teach and cultivate trusted talents.
I can assist you, or my son, no matter what!"
Lu Bu said so much, but he actually wanted to centralize power and give her power!
When the country is founded in the future, the location of the imperial capital will probably be in Guanzhong, and Lu Bu will hand over all the military affairs in important places such as Chang'an and Huayin to her people. In addition, Bingzhou's current finances are also in her hands, which is equivalent to making her a new empire.
The real master.
He thought so long for her, Zhang Mo was extremely moved, but said, "You are worrying too much. Even if you leave first one day, no one can touch me. Who said I am soft-hearted? If I really move
Who can escape from the murderous intention?"
"What about Zizheng? Why don't you kill him?"
Zhang Modigu said, "I wanted to keep him on the verge of death in fear for a few more days. Who said I wouldn't kill him?"
"Tough talk!"
Lu Bu looked down at her and kissed the top of her hair gently, "I have solved his doubts. If you don't want to take action because he was once my brother, I will help you!"
"It's up to you, I'm your person anyway."
Lu Bu drove his horse to a slow trot and said, "When spring comes, let Duan Zhongming lead the people to plant crops on the land here. We will come back to Hida next summer."
“I’m not satisfied with the arrangement of all the refugees recruited by Huayin!”
"Move some of your Black Mountain thieves here?"
"I plan to arrange for those people to go to Jizhou or Henan Yin nearby. One Henan Yin can accommodate them."
"That's really troublesome. There is land but no one is cultivating it!"
"Many people have fled to Jingzhou, so we can only slowly attract the population with preferential tax policies."
The couple chatted all the way, and it was already evening when they returned to Huayin. As soon as they entered the city, Guo Yu rushed over in a hurry, handed a piece of letter paper with both hands, and said, "This morning Mr. Wen He sent a message that Wei County has been destroyed."
, General Qu and General Xu are now surrounding the city of Ye, and the city will be breached in a few days. I would like to ask my lord and wife for instructions. After the city is breached, what will Yuan Benchu and the civil servants and generals of Jizhou do?"
…………
Jizhou, Yecheng!
Yuan Shao was wearing a purple fur and stood on the tallest building in the city against the wind.
Like Huayin, it is also snowing in Jizhou, and the snow is thicker than there. From here, you can have an unobstructed view of the snowy scenery outside Yecheng. The withered branches are transformed into crystal jade trees, and the frozen moat looks like a sheep.
Fat jade bracelets, the ground is covered with white fox fur, and the pure white color spreads from outside the city to the horizon. Everything is so beautiful, except of course the clusters of dark brown Bingzhou military camps outside the city.
It only took more than three months for the Bingzhou Army to occupy Zhongshan, Changshan, Julu, and Zhao State in Jizhou, break through the defense lines of Wei County, and reach Yecheng!
Yuan Shao has been standing here for the past two days thinking, why did he lose so quickly? Where did he go wrong?
Was it the wrong decision to unite with Cao Cao to conquer the state? Was it the wrong decision to hesitate outside the Hukou Pass? Was it wrong to go to Huayin to welcome the emperor?
Looking at the fluttering snowflakes, he couldn't help but think of what his uncle said when he called him to the study when he was in Luoyang. The uncle said that he was more talented than his eldest brother and that boy Yuan Gulu, but because of his status as a commoner, he felt too inferior and behaved badly.
Often hesitant and timid.
However, his uncle later said that he was talented and courageous, and he was the fourth and third son of the Yuan family. The Yuan family paved the road for him and the highway. How far he could go in the future would depend on their ability.
Now that Yuan Guangzhi occupied the land of two states and captured Guangling County of Xuzhou, but he himself was divided up in Jizhou by Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan, and was besieged in a city with no possibility of turning over. Does this mean that he, Yuan Shao, is inferior to Yuan Shu?
No, Yuan Shu was just luckier than himself. He had no strong enemies on either side, but he had two of the strongest enemies in the world - Lu Bu and Mr. Zhang.
One is invincible in bravery and military strength, and the other is incomparable in resourcefulness and can determine the future. How can I defeat the two of them?
So what about the Fourth Generation and the Three Dukes? Yuan Shao smiled a little self-deprecatingly. This status brought him endless benefits, but it also created his arrogant, arrogant and insistent character.
Are you not willing to give in? I am definitely not willing to give in, but more importantly, I am relieved.
These days, a knife has been hanging above his head. Every time he hears bad news, the knife drops a little, making him frightened every day and night, and unable to sleep.
Tens of thousands of Montenegrin troops suddenly appeared in foreign countries to assist in the battle; Yuan Shu's reinforcements were defeated in Liangxian; Sheguo was defeated, Liyang was defeated, and Liang Qi fell; Ma Teng's 30,000-man army was wiped out in Pujin, and one bad news after another overwhelmed him.
He could hardly breathe, he was so tired!
If there is anything he wishes most now, it is not that Lu Bu suddenly withdraws his troops and lets him go, but that he can know the news about Shang Er before he dies, whether he is dead or alive.
"Lord, Lu Fengxian and his wife have arrived outside the city!" Tian Feng climbed up from the ladder in the building and said with cupped hands.
Yuan Shao understood what he meant. The reason why the Bingzhou army had been besieging and not attacking in the past few days was because it was waiting for these two people who were in charge. Now that they are here, the city should be destroyed!
