Later, after receiving the emperor's edict, Cao Cao even ordered people to build palace complexes ahead of schedule, which had already begun to take shape.

Thanks to the new lijia and household registration system, the law and order of counties and counties under Cao Cao's rule is much better than that of other princes.

Liu Xie and his party entered Chenliu County through Hulao Pass, and finally entered Xu County in Yingchuan County.

Along the way, they saw villages of different sizes one after another, and saw the people who were working hard in the fields amidst the smoke from the kitchen.

Now it's autumn, and the farmers are ushering in their happiest moment of the year, a bumper harvest!

The common people sang some local dialect ditties, harvesting crops in full swing in the fields.

Liu Xie was sitting in a very ordinary carriage,

After he heard the singing outside, he couldn't help but lifted a corner of the car curtain and peeked at the rural scenery outside.

It is different from the miserable scene in Guanzhong where there are thousands of red land and bones everywhere.

The people of Chenliu County and Yingchuan County are far away from war and famine, they live and work in peace and contentment, and their life is getting more and more prosperous!

Liu Xie looked at the scene outside that was like another world, and couldn't help feeling and sighing in his heart.

Finally, Liu Xie put down the car curtain silently, leaned on the backrest and slowly closed his eyes, and said to Empress Fu and Concubine Dong Gui, "I'm a little tired..."

......

[The second year of Xingping, late autumn]

[Boss Cao has successfully welcomed the emperor back, and is about to open a new chapter, ushering in the highlight moment of his own rapid development. 】

[I really didn't expect that I was named a general of hussars... Although Feng Xiao said that Boss Cao and the little emperor didn't have good intentions, he was a general of hussars after all, I'm so awesome! 】

[I was just a fascinated by the authorities before, but fortunately Feng Xiao woke me up. 】

[It’s not that Boss Cao harbors evil intentions. He probably thinks of me as a nail inserted into the emperor’s power because he knows me very well and disdains the so-called royal orthodoxy. 】

[To be honest, is it uncomfortable to touch fish and farm? It's so annoying that you insist on asking me to play intrigue or something! 】

[However, I have a bit of weight in the emperor's heart now, how about finding a chance to change my official title and go farming?I think this plan is feasible, and the position of the Da Sinong is very good! 】

Lu Yan first wrote some personal feelings, and then started the complaint mode.

【...】

[Forget it, anyway, the little emperor didn't force me to stay in Xuchang, so I don't need to keep complaining about him... It's really good not to have to go to court, if you really want me to get up at four in the morning, wouldn't everyone be crazy up? 】

After complaining about Lao Cao's cruelty and the emperor's ulterior motives, Lu Yan closed the diary tiredly.

At the same time, the system's notification tone sounded on time.

[The diary synchronization is complete, congratulations to the host for successfully signing in! 】

【Diary Content Judgment: B】

[Your sincerity will always be rewarded. Your diary today was rated as a second class, and the level of rewards remains unchanged. 】

[Rewards are being generated, please wait...]

[Congratulations to the host, you have obtained a heart-nourishing jade]

[Cultivating Heart Jade: Apart from making people feel a little more peaceful, it has no other effect, but its appearance is quite delicate. 】

Lu Yan lay this useless jade pendant quietly in the palm of his hand, shaking his head, he still hung it on his waist.

With the nurturing jade in his body, Lu Yan suddenly felt calmer.

put away the diary,

Lu Yan walked out of his room, looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar environment outside, and thought:

"It's been about a month since I left and I came back. Why do I have the illusion that it's been a long time?"

......

Jizhou, Yecheng.

Yuan Shao was sitting at the main seat in the meeting hall at the moment, quietly watching the news sent by the spies from Chen Liu and Xu Chang.

When Yuan Shao raised his head,

The few think tanks under his command who had been waiting for a long time all clapped their hands together and said, "I have seen the lord!"

Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng, Ju Shou, Xu You, Feng Ji, Guo Tu, Shen Pei and others, nodded and said, "They're all here."

"Master, how is Cao Cao?" Tian Feng asked.

"Cao Mengde defeated the Xiliang army and has brought back the emperor... What do you think he is trying to do?" Yuan Shao was a little puzzled, so he asked the group of advisers.

Ju Shou first cupped his hands and replied: "My lord, according to my subordinates, Cao Cao naturally wants to coerce the emperor to command the princes!"

"Hehe, Cao Cao wants to coerce the emperor to order the princes, so he has to be ordered!" Guo Tu said with a disdainful sneer.

"Don't underestimate it. If there are too many edicts issued by the emperor, it will be a problem for the lord to ignore them!" Tian Feng said, frowning.

At this time Xu You took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, what Yuan Hao said makes sense.

If Cao Cao repeatedly borrows the hand of the emperor to issue edicts to us, will we accept it or not?

But if we don't accept it, we will lose our righteousness and become disobedient ministers who defy the emperor's order; but if we really accept the edict, wouldn't it be a disguised recognition that Cao Cao is orthodox? "

Following what Jushou, Tian Feng and Xu You said, Yuan Shao suddenly felt that it was a big mistake not to welcome the emperor.

But after all, it was his own decision, how could he slap himself in the face?

Guo Tu obviously saw Yuan Shao's entanglement, so he said aloud: "You three, I'm afraid you are a little alarmist."

Ju Shou has a strong temper, and when he heard Guo Tu come out to sing the opposite tune, he immediately shouted angrily: "It's all your fault! When I tried to persuade the Lord to welcome the emperor, it was you, Feng Ji and others who said that the emperor is a burden. Stop the lord from sending troops!"

Ju Shou's yelling yelled at Yuan Shao's face, after all, he also thought so at the beginning...

What to do?I pretended so badly that I had to pretend to be complete even with tears in my eyes!

Listening to the think tanks making noise in the hall again, Yuan Shao pondered for a moment irritably, and then said, "The Son of Heaven has nothing to do with the overall situation, let Cao Cao be proud. The most urgent thing is to exterminate Gongsun Zan!"

After Yuan Shao said the words, Ju Shou, Tian Feng and Xu You could only sigh secretly.

Yuan Shao chose not to talk about it, so it was hard for them to touch this bad luck again.

Chapter 34 Lu Bu of Qingzhou, Sun Ce of Jiangdong

When Cao Cao was busy welcoming the emperor,

Yuzhou, that is, Yuan Shu's territory, is also undergoing a major event that will have a profound impact on the Han Dynasty.

After receiving Zhou Yu's suggestion, Sun Ce immediately proposed the idea of ​​borrowing troops from Yuan Shu. As for the price, he would hand over the imperial jade seal that caused his father Sun Jian's death in vain!

The so-called Chuanguo Yuxi is said to have been carved by Li Si, the prime minister of the State of Qin, with Heshibi.

The jade seal has a radius of four inches, with five dragons intersected in Shanghai New York, and the front is engraved with eight seal characters of "Ordered by the sky, long life and eternal prosperity", which has always been regarded as an orthodox and legal token of imperial power.

There are even rumors that "the one who gets the jade seal wins the world", and this is why Sun Jian planned to return to his hometown in Jiangdong after getting the jade seal.

Emperor!That should be the dream of many men!

But the problem is that anyone with a bit of foresight knows that getting the jade seal will not win the world, and may even lead to death...

Since Sun Jian's death, Sun Ce has been hiding Yuxi by his side.

Although Yuan Shu knew that the Yuxi was with Sun Ce, and although he was very eager to get the Yuxi, he never forced Sun Ce to hand over the Yuxi.

It has to be said that even a person like Yuan Shu who is full of flaws is not useless.

At least his chivalrous spirit is still there, and he doesn't bother to persecute the orphans of his former subordinates.

It is precisely because there are merits that Yuan Shu was able to quickly recover after being defeated by Lu Yan, occupy more territory, and become even stronger.

Although Sun Ce's current residence is not luxurious, it is better than most civil servants and military generals.

Yuan Shu has always admired Sun Ce's bravery, and even thought of adopting him as a foster son, so he has been rewarding him constantly, trying to influence Sun Ce.

In the study room, a young man of about the same age as Sun Ce was sitting opposite to Sun Ce, with a handsome appearance and a generous bearing.

He is Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin who is known as the beautiful Zhou Lang!

After pouring himself and Sun Ce a bowl of tea, Zhou Yu showed a teasing smile on his face and said:

"Bo Fu, Yuan Shu wants to adopt you as his adopted son, why don't you just agree to him?

You know, he now occupies most of Yuzhou and Jianghuai, and his strength is one of the few in the entire Han Dynasty! "

Sun Ce showed a disgusted expression, and replied: "Gong Jin, you know that he is just coveting the jade seal in my hand, why do you bring this up..."

"Indeed, he cares more about Yuxi than you." Zhou Yu shook his head and replied, "But Bo Fu, are you planning to just stay under Yuan Shu's hand and spend the rest of your life in a daze?"

"Of course I don't want to!" Sun Ce raised his eyebrows, slapped the table with his palm, and said passionately, "I would like to inherit my father's will, wipe out all the traitors in the world, and give the big man a bright future!"

"Then why do you still keep the jade seal?"

"Er... this... jade seal..."

Seeing Sun Ce faltering, Zhou Yu didn't understand the thoughts in Jiyou's mind. Anyone would say bold words, but in the end it was for the benefit in his heart.

After sighing helplessly, Zhou Yu said: "Bo Fu, the world was fought down by the hard work of civil servants, counselors, generals and soldiers!

What we need now is land, a foundation, talents and money, not jade seals.

A piece of jade seal, apart from bringing you trouble, what else can it bring you? "

Zhou Yu's words made Sun Ce fall into deep thought.

It's not that he hasn't thought about similar issues, but Yuxi was left to him by his father Sun Jian after all, and he really couldn't bear to hand it over just like that.

Now that his most trusted friends have said so, Sun Ce gritted his teeth and finally said, "Since that's the case, I ask Gong Jin to teach me how to behave!"

"Okay!" What Zhou Yu admired most was Sun Ce's courage, which was very fascinating.

He continued: "Didn't Yuan Shu always want a jade seal? Then we will give it to him!"

"Just...give it to him??" Sun Ce opened his mouth wide and asked in disbelief.

"Of course not!" Zhou Yu's lips curled up slightly, and she replied, "You must use Yuxi to exchange for the free bodies of you and your father's old army. If possible, maybe you can exchange for a team of several thousand people!"

Sun Ce is not an idiot, Zhou Yu said it so directly, how can he not understand.

"Okay, let's use Yuxi to make a deal with Yuan Shu!" After finishing speaking, Sun Ce suddenly stood up, looked out the window and murmured: "How can you and my brother be missing in this world?"

Zhou Yu looked at Sun Ce's back and nodded unconsciously.

After draining the tea soup in the bowl in one gulp, Zhou Yu stood up and came to Sun Ce, saying, "Yes, this world will be a lot more dull without you..."

In the autumn of the second year of Xingping, a "small incident" happened under Yuan Shu's command.

Sun Ce took advantage of Yuan Shu's sending Wu Jing to attack Zhang Ying and others, who had been unsuccessful for years, so he asked for help.

After donating the jade seal, Yuan Shu happily appointed Sun Ce as the captain of Zhechong, the general of the gangsters.

He also returned his father Sun Jian's old army, and gave Sun Ce more than a thousand soldiers and dozens of horses, and asked him to go south to help Wu Jing.

After reuniting with his father's old army, Sun Ce led his army away from Yuan Shu.

Along the way, they continued to expand their team, numbering five or six thousand, and successfully joined forces with Wu Jing and Zhou Yu in Liyang.

At this point, Sun Ce was completely out of Yuan Shu's control.

And the six counties in Jiangdong are about to usher in a bloody storm and earth-shaking changes!

......

The situation in Qingzhou is also becoming clearer.

Finally, Tian Kai still couldn't withstand the attack from some forces of Lu Bu and Yuan Shao. After his defeat, he was completely driven out of Qingzhou.

Linzi, the prefecture of Qingzhou, in the prefecture's mansion,

Lu Bu stood on the main seat, condescendingly looking down at his current team.

Although Yanzhou lost two generals in the First World War, many aristocratic families left with Lu Bu when they left Yanzhou.

After entering Qingzhou, relying on the reputation of being unparalleled in the world, Lu Bu got some small groups of Yellow Turban forces to join him.

Although many of them did not leave their names in history, they are not useless. Today's Lu Bu's subordinates can also be said to be full of civil and military skills.

"Sir, you said that Cao Cao welcomed the emperor?" Lu Bu asked Chen Gong, who was standing first on the left, with a calm face.

Ever since he had a tie with Lu Yan, and lost his family in the defeat of the whole army in the First Battle of Puyang, Lu Bu gradually restrained his arrogant temper.

Today's Lu Bu has also learned to calm down and think. He used to be a civil servant when he first debuted, and his intelligence was not a problem at all.
