Liu Ye was more concerned about taking refuge in Liu Zheng, so after talking to Lu Su, Lu Su also fully agreed, and the two of them immediately walked out of the camp with their three thousand heroes, and took Zheng Bao All the water thieves brought over were subdued.

After Zheng Bao's death, the people he brought over really became leaderless. For a while, under the siege of Xiangyong led by Lu Su and Liu Ye, they surrendered without much resistance.

After all, the two had trained on Hongze Lake before, and these brave men were able to fight against Zhou Yu, and they were evenly matched, which shows their ability to strategize.

Under the rule of Lu Su and Liu Ye, Zheng Bao's people chose to surrender directly without much effort.

Lu Su and Liu Ye took advantage of the victory and pursued them, leading their troops to directly kill Zheng Bao's lair in the water village.

And received most of Zheng Bao's trilogy in one go, except for a few people who were related to Zheng Bao, who rose up to resist and decided to follow Zheng Bao and Lu Su and others to fight, the rest were all killed by Lu Su. , Liu Ye two subdued.

The whole process took just five days.

After five days, Liu Zheng had just returned from Tai Shici's military tent.

Then I received the news that Lu Su and Liu Ye had eliminated Zheng Bao, and they had collected all of Zheng Bao's men and horses, and brought Zheng Bao's men and horses to seek refuge.

Liu Zheng was also very surprised by this news. He had arranged for his Jin Yiwei to closely monitor the actions of Lu Su and Liu Ye.

It's only been a few days, and they didn't expect the two of them to have settled Zheng Bao's matter.

Now I know that Lu Su and Liu Ye have killed Zheng Bao, and they have done so perfectly.This made Liu Zheng's impression of Liu Ye and Lu Su even higher.

"Okay, as expected of the person I fancy!"

Liu Zheng took his Jin Yiwei straight to Zhou Yu's camp, and then met Lu Su and Liu Ye who had been waiting here.

Originally, Lu Su and Liu Ye only brought three thousand brave men to join him. Liu Zheng wanted to give them the title of major, and then give them a military adviser position in each of the legions under his command.

But now they have brought more than [-] water thieves from the entire Zheng Bao. Although the strength of these water thieves is not very good and uneven, it is obvious that the credit is even greater, and it is not appropriate to follow the previous thinking.

The positions were still allocated in this way. Lu Su went to the Huainan area where Tai Shici was located, and served as a military advisor for Tai Shici, assisting Tai Shici, and guarding Huainan.

Liu Ye went to Guangling City to assist Wenpin and help Wenpin guard Guangling.

It's just that the military ranks of the two have changed from major to lieutenant colonel.

Second only to the battalion commanders of these battalion commanders under Liu Zheng.

With such a title arrangement, Lu Su and Liu Ye naturally looked pleasantly surprised.

Never expected that Liu Zheng would value them so much.

At that moment, in Zhou Yu's camp, both of them fell to their knees, thinking of Liu Zheng as showing their loyalty.

Liu Zheng originally wanted to take them to Wenpin's barracks for a tour.

However, there was news that Yuan Shao's envoy had arrived, so Liu Zheng had to temporarily stop his plan to inspect the three armies. Instead, he returned to Wu County to meet Yuan Shao's envoy first.

Back in Wu County, Liu Zheng had a new idea. Because of the construction of the imperial palace, the town here has been expanded many times.

It's no longer the way Liu Zheng started to join forces. Liu Zheng decided to follow the example of Soochow in history and change the name of this place. It will not be called Wu County in the future, but Jianye.

Build a business, build a business, make contributions.

He talked about his plan to several assistant ministers under him, and immediately got a response, and soon began to implement it.

At the same time, Liu Zheng was also preparing to receive the envoy sent by Yuan Shao in the palace.

However, before meeting Yuan Shao's envoy.

Another piece of news came over, which made Liu Zheng stunned.

He Miao died.

Yes, not long after Liu Zhengcai ascended the throne, He Miao, the great general of the Han Dynasty, who also served as the great Sima, died.

The news quickly spread from Luoyang. Liu Zheng's subordinates were naturally active in Luoyang. After learning of the news, it was quickly passed on to Wu County.

In just a few days, Liu Zheng already knew that He Miao was dead.

Moreover, it was also known that Lu Zhi, the Hussar general, led Xun You, Zhong Ji and others to kill He Miao in the name of the Qing emperor.

In the court, there was no objection from all the officials. After killing some of He Miao's remnants, the entire Han court regained its calm.

When this news reached Liu Zheng's ears, Liu Zheng was stunned.

Once He Miao, a young man, died, Liu Zheng really couldn't see the situation in Luoyang.

The existence of He Miao is actually a deterrent. He Miao is an imperial party no matter what.

In order to protect the status of the little emperor Liu Bian, even though He Miao's ambitions are getting bigger and bigger, He Miao is always Liu Bian's uncle, and He Miao will not kill Liu Bian because of reason.

But as soon as He Miao died, those people who had been lurking before began to step onto the stage of history.

They are not relatives of the little emperor, they are just representatives of some aristocratic families, and they represent the interests of the aristocratic families.

Liu Zheng didn't know what the imperial court would look like, but what Liu Zheng could know was that the Han Dynasty was an old man who was dying, and would run out of fuel at any time.

Without He Miao's suppression, even Luoyang, the capital, and the little emperor would have nothing to say.

Originally, He Miao suppressed some young people. Although the world was in chaos, at least the imperial court could still control Luoyang and Sanfu.

Those princes outside are not very good at listening to the emperor. Now that He Miao died, the little emperor is not old enough to control the army, so those princes who occupy the land as kings may even ignore the little emperor.

Liu Zheng ignored the news and wanted to know more. He had to wait until the situation in Luoyang was passed on. What he had to do now was to meet Yuan Shao's envoy and see if Yuan Shao sent someone to him. What is the plan for coming here.

"Come here, let Yuan Shao's envoy go to the palace."

"Send Yuan Shao's envoy!"

The little eunuch, at the top of his voice, sent a message in the hall.

Not long after, a person walked in, who was Yuan Shao's emissary.

But Liu Zheng glanced at the person in front of him, but still didn't recognize who he was.

"You are Yuan Shao's envoy?"

"I'm under Jushou, I have seen His Majesty."

Ju Shou went to the hall, introduced himself briefly, and saluted Liu Zheng.

Chapter 768 Qin Jin's Goodness

Liu Zheng heard that His Highness spoke, although his face was expressionless.

But the heart is surprised.

Ju grant.

This name is no stranger to Liu Zheng.

In Liu Zheng's heart, a person like Jushou, such a counselor, is definitely one of the top ten counselors of the Three Kingdoms in Liu Zheng's heart.

It can even be said that he is the number one adviser under Yuan Shao.

Jushou has few ambitions and many schemes.

When he was young, he was Jizhou Biejia. Later, he was promoted as Maocai and served as county magistrate twice.Later, he served as Han Fu's Biejia, and was named the Cavalry Captain by Han Fu.He once proposed a good strategy to Han Fu, but it was not adopted.

After Yuan Shao took control of Jizhou, he was appointed to supervise the internal and external forces, and the three armies of Megatron, and helped Yuan Shao capture Qingzhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou to unify Hebei.Jushou once proposed to Yuan Shao to flatter the emperor, oppose the separation of schools, and proposed a strategy of exhausting Cao for three years. Not only was Yuan Shao not adopted, but his military power was weakened.

In the Battle of Guandu, Ju Shou proposed a slow-advance tactic, but did not adopt it.After Yuan Shao's defeat, Jushou was captured and refused to surrender.Later, Jushou wanted to return to Hebei, but was defeated and killed.Cao Cao once sighed: "If you get together early and alone, the world has nothing to worry about."

It can be said that Jushou just followed the wrong lord.

If you change someone casually, whether Jushou follows Cao Cao or Liu Bei, it will not end like this.

Moreover, Jushou's ingenuity was not reused by Yuan Shao's men, and even Liu Zheng felt sorry for Jushou.

Liu Zheng had thought of recruiting Jushou before, but he never had the chance. Now that he saw Jushou at this time, Liu Zheng's heart became more careful at this time.

Do you want to detain this guy Jushou?

But when he was still thinking about this question in his mind, His Highness's Ju Shou had already started to speak to Liu Zheng again, pulling Liu Zheng's mind back.

"Your Majesty, I entrust my family's great general to be an envoy to Your Majesty, and I have two matters to discuss with Your Majesty."

"Oh, Yuan Benchu, isn't it? What's the matter, you actually bothered Mr. Jushou to come and talk to me in person, but I have admired Mr. Jushou's name for a long time. I don't know if Mr. Jushou can stay in my Jianye City for more time? "

Liu Zheng was not interested in what Yuan Shao wanted to tell him. On the contrary, Liu Zheng was just thinking about how to keep Jushou.

"Ok?"

Jushou didn't expect that Liu Zheng didn't seem to be interested in his identity, but he still ignored what Liu Zheng said and continued to speak.

"My general sent me here, one of which is to express our general's support for His Majesty, and support His Majesty as emperor."

Originally, Liu Zheng really wasn't interested in what Yuan Shao wanted to say, but after hearing Ju Shou's words, he became interested.

"What did you say? Yuan Benchu ​​decided to support me as emperor?"

Yuan Shao actually supported him to proclaim himself emperor, which was something Liu Zheng never expected, and Yuan Shao even supported his own brother Yuan Shu's proclaiming emperor, which surprised Liu Zheng a bit.

But Liu Zheng's question was quickly answered on Ju Shou's face.

Ju Shou nodded and continued.

"Well, my great general not only supports His Majesty's proclaiming the emperor, but also sent me a congratulatory gift, three hundred horses from Karasuma, which were specially transported from Youzhou. "

The war horses brought by Jushou were transported to Wu Jun along with his ship. Liu Zheng already knew this before.

However, at that time, Liu Zheng didn't know that these war horses came with Jushou and gave Liu Zheng as a gift.

Now that he heard Jushou say that Yuan Shao gave it to him, Liu Zheng was a little surprised.

"Yuan Benchu ​​actually supported me to become emperor. This is something I never thought of. Mr. Jushou, can you tell me why Yuan Benchu ​​is willing to support me?"

"Actually, Your Majesty doesn't have to doubt my great general's heart. This is also the second reason why I am here as an envoy to Your Majesty."

"Oh? I'm all ears."

"My lord wants to become a good friend of Qin and Jin with your lord, and jointly deal with the Han court."

Jushou's words were very straightforward, without beating around the bush.

Liu Zheng laughed when he heard it.

"Qin Jinzhi? What, Yuan Shao wants to marry his daughter to me?"

"No, my great general's daughter, how can she be worthy, my lord."

"what does that mean?"

"It's my great general who wants His Majesty to marry our emperor's daughter."

"Liu Yu's daughter?"

After listening to Jushou's explanation, Liu Zheng finally understood.

"Hahaha, interesting, the calculation with Yuan Benchu ​​was really good. I married Liu Yu's daughter, and the next time I saw Liu Yu, wouldn't I be a generation younger in generation? I am the emperor, and Liu Yu Can your daughter get married?"

"This"

Jushou didn't expect Liu Zheng to answer like this.

"Does your lord have a son? It is also possible to marry your lord's son."

Jushou is the next best thing.

"Yes, who doesn't have a son, but the little one, Liu Jiang, is only four or five years old. Are you sure you want to marry my son?"

""

"Forget it, marriage is unnecessary, but I know what Yuan Benchu's thoughts are. He just wants to deal with the court with me. I accept this request."

Liu Zheng didn't care about this with Jushou, he thought so too, and he showed weakness to Yuan Shao before, in order to deal with the court together with Yuan Shao.

Now, he has just learned that He Miao is dead, and this is the time when the court is facing internal and external troubles. If at this time, Liu Zheng and Yuan Shao send troops to attack the court together.

The imperial court must be overwhelmed. Without He Miao, Lu Zhi alone would be unable to deal with the attacks of Yuan Shao and Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng and Yuan Shao are bound to be able to tear a large piece of flesh from the court.

When Jushou heard Liu Zheng's answer, the look on his face looked better.

"My lord deserves to be famous outside. He really knows how to weigh the pros and cons. I admire you."

"Mr. Jushou, you don't need to compliment me. The business is over. Have you thought about my proposal just now, Mr. Jushou?"

"What proposal?"

"It's a proposal to let Mr. stay in my Jianye City for a longer period of time."

"what?"
