There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Out of the main hall, Liu Biao couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "After Fu Wan, this man has some power and tricks, but he doesn't know the real political strategy and military affairs. Poor Da Situ Fu Zhan was such a person back then. The Fu family is also a wealthy family in the world. Such actions are truly deplorable.”

Liu Bei didn't dare to say more, but said: "The prime minister is also thinking about the safety of the country, but it may be that his personal ability is not good enough. In the future, Brother Jing Sheng needs to support Chao Gang a lot."

Liu Biao turned his head to look at Liu Bei, and said, "There is no need to worry about Fu Wan. He has fulfilled his mission to support the emperor again, but whether the Han Dynasty can prosper in the future depends on our Liu family."

Liu Bei looked at him suspiciously.

Liu Biao patted Liu Bei's hand, and said: "As long as you, me, and Liu Jiyu from Xichuan, the three Han clansmen work together to help protect the young master, we may not be able to do great things. The old man's heart, Xuande Do you understand?"

Chapter 596 The two dynasties established the capital

For this unfathomable elder brother, Liu Bei has always held a very respectful attitude since he arrived in Jingzhou.

Seeing Liu Biao talking to him sincerely now, Liu Bei was moved, he didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly said: "Brother Jing Sheng should be the leader of Bei Zi."

Liu Biao nodded slightly, and said: "The old man is getting old, and Liu Jiyu is not an ordinary person. The further we three clans go, I'm afraid we will have to rely on you to take the lead, but the time is not right now. But you still need to be the head of this old man, how old is this old man, and from now on he will sell himself as his elder brother, can Xuande be convinced?"

The feeling Liu Biao gave Liu Bei was somewhat unfathomable, so Liu Bei naturally didn't dare to neglect or underestimate him.

"For the sake of the Han family, Bei Zi should put his elder brother first."

Liu Biao nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Okay, since that's the case, Xuande, then the old man will arrange the first thing for you... You go back to Jiangling, supervise the construction of the palace, build the capital in Jiangling, and then send the emperor and Fu Wan and others will take it."

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this.

What kind of cheap trick are you playing?

Didn't you agree to build a capital city in Jiangling earlier?Why did he change three times a day, and agreed again this time?

Seeing Liu Bei's puzzled expression, Liu Biao couldn't help but smile.

"Brother Xuande, in fact, this old man is not a stubborn person. The land of Xiangyang is located in Jingbei and close to the Central Plains. It is indeed not a suitable place to build a capital. The old man's current foundation is here, but it is also a It cannot be discarded at will.”

Speaking of this, Liu Biao looked around and saw no one around, and said: "The land of Xiangyang must be inseparable from the old man, otherwise Jingzhou will be chaotic, but the old man really intends to take advantage of the opportunity to build the capital for the emperor. , in the land of Jingzhou, open up another piece of world, do you understand what this old man means?"

Liu Bei is a wise man, the so-called listening to the strings and knowing the elegance.

He immediately smelled the tricks in it.

"There are many clans in Xiangyang, and my brother plans to establish the capital in Jiangling, and gradually tilt the political center of Jingzhou to Nanjun, gradually depriving Cai, Kuai... those clans of their authority and influence?"

Liu Biao nodded in satisfaction, and said: "Your brother is really smart, he is worthy of being a member of our Han family. Back then, I came to Jingzhou to take office one by one, and used the power of the local clan to secure the land of seven counties. This achievement is already a great achievement. Limit, but the current internal and external troubles, the old man can't easily take action against the clan, there has been no cure, but fortunately His Majesty came to the land of Jingchu, and gave the old man such a chance to find ways to weaken the clan's power outside of Xiangyang."

Liu Bei thought about it carefully for a while, and secretly thought that Liu Biao's words were indeed reasonable, and indeed he was not someone to wait for nothing.

"Brother Jing Sheng, but I don't understand, since you already intend to set up the capital in Jiangling, why do you insist on fighting against Fu Wan and make your capital in Xiangyang?"

Liu Biao laughed and said, "This matter is easy to explain. If the old man is too supportive of the establishment of the capital in Jiangling, there is no guarantee that it will not cause warnings and vigilance from the big clans in Xiangyang. They have been able to dominate Jingxiang for many years, and they are by no means mediocre. Seniors, this old man has always paid attention to stability when doing things. If you act too hastily, you may be spotted by others... And during this time, this old man has been carefully observing you to see if you are a person who can trust you with great things. "

The more Liu Bei listened, the more he admired Liu Biao's ability.

"The battle between the old man and Fu Wan is almost at the end of the day. At that time, both sides will take a step back and let him protect the emperor and go to Jiangling to live in peace. On the side of the Liu clan, you will lead the troops and go to Jiangling to garrison. Xuande, you are in Jiangling. According to the old man's instructions, slowly develop the power, and contact the clan of the Nanjun gentry for the old man, and expand the influence of the court. If the clan is powerful, the old man will go to Jiangling from time to time. If there is anything, you and my brother can feel free Discuss."

Hearing this, Liu Bei hurriedly said, "Brother is so important, so Bei is naturally capable of doing anything, but the prime minister and the Xiangyang clan..."

Liu Biao chuckled and said, "Don't worry, Fu Wan has been arguing with the old man for so long, and he has long lost his patience. Whatever condition the old man asks him now, as long as he can set the capital, he will agree. As for the clan, Although you are a member of the Han clan, you came here with Fu Wan after all, so they won't be too wary of you, so don't worry."

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard the words, and hurriedly said, "Bei Zi will serve Brother Jing Sheng."

"It's wrong, it's for the emperor." Liu Biao corrected him.

"Not bad."

Liu Biao suddenly said again: "Xuande, it is said that the two generals under your command, Guan and Zhang, are not under Lu Bu. Now I am dealing with Sun Ce, Lu Bu and the traitor Zhang Xian at the same time. It is more urgent to deal with them on both fronts at the same time. We need to borrow their strength. You are not allowed to take them with you when you go to Jiangling this time, and leave them in Xiangyang, the old man will use them himself."

Liu Bei naturally understood Liu Biao's hidden meaning.

But he was an extraordinary person, and he agreed at that time without any hesitation.

……

Xuzhou, Pengcheng.

After the potter's plan was implemented step by step, the school office kept bringing back reports to Pengcheng, and as expected, as the potter had guessed, the people of the world and the princes of all walks of life really had some concerns about Fu Wan's actions. Suspicion and suspicion have been eliminated, and little Liu Xi's reputation has reached a peak due to the propaganda effect of the pottery.

The princes from all walks of life are now quietly watching. In this way, the time has come, so it is indeed time to establish the capital.

After Guo Jia settled Mr. Qu in Jinling City, he had already rushed back to Pengcheng, so the pottery merchant found his cronies to discuss the establishment of the emperor.

The title of the country is undoubtedly the Han Dynasty.

The earth platform and high platform used for ascending the throne, as well as a set of tools are also being perfected.

As for the construction of the palace, relying on the wealth of Jinling City, it can be completed within a few months.

The date of ascension to the throne is set at the end of next year, and the reign name is Jiankang...

These things are easy to talk about and harmless, the key is where the capital should be set up.

According to the opinions of Chen Deng, Guo Jia, Zhuge Liang and others, they believed that the capital should be located in Jinling City.

After all, after seven years of construction, Jinling City has become a powerful city in the world. Not to mention the wealthy, it has also absorbed a dense population.

In particular, Zhang Hong once remonstrated with the pottery merchants that this place was the land of Longxing.

But for some reason, the potter didn't talk about it.

He seemed to be waiting for something.

After a day of fruitless discussions, everyone left one after another, except Sima Yi who stayed at the potter's place as if he had some private matters to discuss with him.

"Zhongda, why haven't you gone back yet?"

The potter looked at him suspiciously.

Sima Yi mused for a moment, then suddenly cupped his hands and said, "Jinling is the master's painstaking effort. If it is established as the capital of Han, the reputation that should belong to the master will be in vain. This place is the foundation of the teacher and cannot be used as the capital of Han."

The potter let out a sigh of relief.

That's what he wanted to say but couldn't say.

"Then tell me, where should the capital be located?"

Sima Yi hesitated for a moment: "The students have thought about it for a long time, and they think Nanchang is the most appropriate way."

Chapter 597 Brothers Meet

Sima Yi's words pleased the potter, but also puzzled him.
