What Fei Qian didn't know was that while he was enjoying his family reunion in Guanzhong, he seemed a little precarious outside the Guan. Yuan Shao was ill. Although he didn't die immediately, he was still seriously ill. Yuan Shao naturally had strict orders to spread this news.
However, gossip has always been a Chinese tradition. Even if there were no WeChat groups in the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were still small circles.
The criterion for distinguishing "insiders" from "outsiders" is the amount and accuracy of the information. What's interesting is that in many such circles, the person involved is the last to get the information...
Yuan Tan regrets it now.
What I regret most is that I followed Yuan Shao's orders too much.
Qingzhou was originally a good place, but because Qingzhou first had the Yellow Turbans, and later became an area where several princes competed with each other, it is now almost deserted.
Yuan Tan's reputation in Qingzhou was not good, not only because he repeatedly transferred Qingzhou grain and grass to support Yuan Shao, but also because of his previous "big battle" with Kong Rong.
Kong Rong was initially praised in history, but later some people overturned Kong Rong's image. However, whether praised or belittled, Kong Rong was very famous in the Qingzhou area, especially in Beihai.
It turns out that during the period of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, Kong Rong responded to Yang Ci's call and became a pioneer in fighting against the eunuchs at that time. He impeached and prosecuted many relatives of the eunuchs at that time. He made no secret of it and was praised by Qingliu.
, later He Jin came to power, and Kong Rong was the forerunner to oppose his relatives. Because He Jin's disciples did not notify him in time, Kong Rong showed his face on the spot, took back the famous thorn, and walked away. He took it and made He Jin unable to advance.
Very embarrassing.
Later, someone persuaded He Jin to be patient, saying that if Kong Rong was dealt with, people from all over the world would be resentful and intolerant, showing the general's warm mind...
At that time, He Jin had just been waiting for a high position and needed to win over people from all walks of life, so he held his nose and endured it. Not only did he not deal with Kong Rong, but he recommended him to Gaodi and then moved him to serve as censor.
However, soon, Kong Rong was at odds with his superior, Censor Zhongcheng Zhao She, and then quit the job and went home because of illness.
After Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, he had some exchanges with Yuan Wei in the early days before they were in trouble. Kong Rong took up his post again during this period. He was recruited as a subordinate of Sikong and was awarded the title of Military Marquis of Beizhong. He served for three years.
Later, Kong Rong was transferred to the position of Lieutenant Commander of the Tiger Guard. Interestingly, Kong Rong once again argued with his immediate superior, and he argued vehemently with Dong Zhuo. He made some corrective remarks, which naturally made Dong Zhuo angry to death. Later, Kong Rong
Rong was transferred to Beihai State, where the Yellow Turbans were rampant at that time, as prime minister.
The princes of the Eastern Han Dynasty were all trash. They were not trash in the first place, and they were basically raised to be trash. The same was true in Beihai Kingdom. Therefore, after Kong Rong arrived in Beihai, he had no immediate boss and no one to argue with, and he finally started to do things.
To do this, he first summoned the soldiers and the people, gathered troops to teach martial arts, issued a proclamation, and personally wrote letters and communicated with the various states and counties to jointly plan to conquer the Yellow Turban bandits. Then he was defeated magnificently in front of Zhang Rao, a little-known Qu commander in the Yellow Turban.
Coming...
However, Kong Rong was an idiot in the military, but he was somewhat better in people's livelihood and government affairs. He repaired cities, gathered refugees, set up schools, demonstrated Confucianism, and recommended virtuous people, including Zheng Xuan and others. At the same time, he also encouraged the people in the county
Those who do good deeds, even if they are only small ones, are praised and treated with courtesy, and even funeral expenses are paid to those families who have no descendants...
A large amount of money was spread out, so Kong Rong was also quite famous in Beihai, and was called "Kong Beihai" by the locals.
Then he was laid down by Yuan Tanqian.
Siege battles, some last for one or two years, are considered normal operations, just like when Zang Hong rebelled against Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao was so angry that he personally led the siege. How long did it last?
One year.
But with the blessing of the title "Kong Beihai", how long did Kong Rong fight with Yuan Tan, a figure whose number of soldiers was completely inferior to that of Yuan Shao?
Three months.
It is said that at that time, Kong Rong "soldiered hundreds of soldiers, arrows rained down, and swords and spears were caught inside. Rong Yin spent some time reading, talking and laughing freely. The city fell at night, so he rushed to Dongshan, and his wife and son were captured by Tan"...
It seemed good to talk and laugh freely when the overall situation was a disastrous defeat, but after the night, he abandoned his wife and ran away. I don't know whether the guy who wrote this history book wanted to praise Kong Rong or slander him?
However, Yuan Tan's treatment of Kong Rong's wife was not unkind to Cao Cao. Originally, Yuan Tan planned to find an opportunity to send Kong Rong's wife back, but now that Yuan Shao is ill, Yuan Tan has a new one.
idea……
Yuan Tan is planning to marry Kong, not Kong Rong's wife, but Kong Rong's daughter.
Yuan Tan's original wife was Wen. Wen was from Nanyang. She was originally arranged for Yuan Tan when Yuan Shao had not become the lord of Jizhou. But the problem was that Wen could not bring any help to Yuan Tan after so many years.
I only gave birth to a daughter, not even a son!
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the greatest is not having an heir. Based on this, Yuan Tan feels that the name of divorced wife is given, but the Kong family is different. Young or not, beautiful or not is another matter. Just the name of Kong Rong.
, that’s enough.
Originally, Yuan Tan thought that he was just a passerby in Qingzhou. After Qingzhou was pacified, he would eventually return to Jizhou to inherit the great cause. But now, the great cause is just like a colorful soap bubble, under the sun,
It was very beautiful, but it soon "broken" and disappeared.
Therefore, now Yuan Tan urgently needs to change his thinking and change from a passerby to a host. For Yuan Tan, a famous daughter of Kong Rong in Qingzhou is naturally the best marriage partner, and it will not be too strong at first
Secondly, Kong is also a descendant of Confucius, which can also allow Yuan Tan to bless enough glory and show enough goodwill in front of the Qingzhou nobles.
As for the daughters of prominent families in Qingzhou, it’s not that Yuan Tan doesn’t want to marry, it’s that those prominent families are not willing to marry...
Anyway, the Kong family is now in his own hands, so naturally he does not need the consent of Kong Rong, the cheap father-in-law, but he does need Yuan Shao's nod...
Marriage is called one of the four great joyous events in life, but Yuan Tan is not happy about it.
Yuan Tan's move also has some testing implications. If Yuan Shao still has some people who will be regarded as heirs, then he will not allow it so easily, nor will he be allowed to marry a Kong family who only has a false name but little actual strength.
, However, the result was that Yuan Shao agreed.
Yuan Tan hoped that Yuan Shao could stop his marriage, and then ordered him to return to Ye, but in the end...
Actually, I agreed!
Sure enough, I agreed...
……(╯#-_-)╯╧═╧……
Yuan Tan was not the only one who was messy in the wind, Yuan Xi was also the same.
The Zhen family received vague news that Yuan Shao was seriously ill and asked him to prepare earlier...
what to prepare?
What else can be prepared?
Youzhou is a poor place. If you don’t have anything, what preparations can you make?!
unless……
Outside Yuyang City, Yuan Xi saw a group of people meandering towards him. The expression on his face flickered, and finally he put on a bright smile and stepped forward to greet him: "Brother Liu, are you okay?"
Liu He slightly cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan Xian's style is even better than before..."
When Liu Yu was still alive, the two of them met, drank wine together, and discussed scriptures. At that time, they could not help but get red-faced and thick-necked because of an argument about a certain verse of the scriptures, and almost got into a fight. But at that time,
Even though the two people were arguing, they felt cordial. But now they seem to be in harmony, but they are on guard and distant from each other.
When they arrived at the city, Liu He looked up at the word Yuyang above the city gate, and couldn't help but feel a little sad. Liu Yu was famous all over Youzhou here, and he died here...
Yuan Xi glanced at Liu He and found that he was staring at the word "Yuyang", but his heart skipped a beat. He twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, then quickly changed it into a smile, stretched out his hand to invite: "Brother Liu,
please!"
Liu He wants Youzhou and Yuan Xi's current territory. Yuan Xi also knows this. However, now he has to invite his opponent to his territory and into his government office. Does this count as
Lure the wolf into the house, open the door and hunt down the thief?
The imperial court is now in chaos, and the official system in various places has disappeared. However, it is a rare thing that two Youzhou governors from different factions can sit in the same place and drink face to face instead of fighting.
The relationship in Youzhou is quite complicated and chaotic. This is true for the Hu people and the Han people. There must be collusion between Liu He and the hussar general Fei Qian. Yuan Xi also knows it, but the problem is that he is now
You have to pretend you don't know anything.
Some people think of some things as treasures and want to hold them tightly in their hands, while some people think of them as burdens and feel like a burden even if they are carried around...
Just like Youzhou.
For Liu He, Youzhou is not just his father's last wish, but the biggest desire in his heart. For Yuan Xi, it is like a bottle of oil holding him back, holding him back from competing for a better and sweeter feast.
.
In Yuyang City, after experiencing the battle between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, and encountering two successive Xianbei invasions, it was completely different from when Liu Yu was there. Liu He couldn't help but sigh when he saw it: "In the past, I went there
Yes, the willows are blooming. Now I come to think about it, the rain and snow are falling..."
Although Liu He spent more time in Luoyang because he was a hostage, because Liu Yu served as the governor of Youzhou twice and even the shepherd of Youzhou, there was a section where Liu Yu was suspected by the court.
He had evil intentions and dismissed him. As a hostage, he also went to Yuyang with the newly appointed governor of Youzhou...
When Liu He was still young, he thought that the court felt that his father and son had not seen each other for too long and missed him deeply, so they arranged for his father and son to meet as soon as possible...
Now that I think about it, the imperial court was actually afraid that Liu Yu would be dissatisfied and rebel, so it brought Liu He with it, which was more or less a bargaining chip...
However, during that period, it was Liu He's happiest period. Liu Yu relieved himself of the burden of responsibility and took him on a solo trip to various tribes to say goodbye, drink and feast with the tribal leaders, and rise up.
Sometimes I sang and danced, and sometimes I slept soundly when I was drunk. At that time, the sky in Yuyang was so bright and clear.
Liu He's emotion was a bit harsh in Yuan Xi's ears.
The word "picking weeds" in the Book of Songs is almost like "Guan Guan", which is basic literary common sense. It is naturally impossible for Yuan Xi not to know what Liu He is talking about, but what does Liu He want to express through these two sentences?
Is it a mockery of me stationed at the border, and then the willows in the past are raining and snowing today, or is it saying that now I am "traveling slowly, carrying thirst and hunger"?
Or do you want to say, "Isn't it the sun's warning and the wolf's hole and thorns?"
Or does it mean something else?
Yuan Xi rolled his eyes, feeling that if he said "What do you mean" now, he would inevitably lose his face, so he could only laugh twice to cover it up and pretend that he understood.
When they came to the main hall of Yuyang, the guests and hosts sat down and talked a little bit. After testing each other's depth, they entered the main show. Liu He said straight to the point: "A gentleman says that the way of decoration is the best."
The journey is far away! Brother Yuan Xian, do you know the reason?"
To be straight to the point, there are many mountains. The bare barren mountains are naturally visible at a glance, but mountains like Liuhe can only be regarded as mountains of rain and fog, and part of them can be seen. The rest are still hidden in the rain and fog, and only white fog can be seen.
If you practice, you will not see mountains, forests or mountains.
If the meaning is purely superficial, then it is naturally very simple, just like the "no entry for disheveled persons" in many large hotels in later generations. It seems to be very simple and clear, but in fact, during the specific process, you will find that even if
It's the same vest. If a man wears it, it's called "obstructive to the eyes, revealing breasts," and is definitely meant to be kicked out. But if it's worn by a woman, it becomes "fashion-forward, beautiful," and can be entered in a dignified manner...
…
So, what does Liu He want to say?
Does it mean "Ji Sun's mother died"?
Or should I say that I am now "Funei"?
Or does it mean that now we should "remain in the stable and repair our appearance"?
Or does it simply refer to the two words "Jisun"?
Yuan Xi was silent for a moment, lowered his head and said, "Brother Liu, please give me some advice."
At the critical moment, you have to pretend to understand and explain clearly, so that there will be no misunderstandings in the subsequent process, so Yuan Xi simply did not express his position and let Liu He speak first.
Liu He laughed twice, and then said: "Who is Zigong? He is not allowed to enter the hall! How close is it to today? There is no way to show it! It is said that a good brother is here, like jade placed in the mud! How can a gentleman do it?
Why?"
"As the saying goes, gentlemen are harmonious but different, and villains are similar but not harmonious..." Liu He continued, "A certain person and Yuan Xiandi are inherently different, but there is harmony... I wonder if Yuan Xiandi thinks so? Harmony brings together forces and makes things easier together.
Lifen, on this occasion of peace and harmony, Brother Yuan Xian has a lot to do..."
Obviously, Liu He's "harmony" meant something, and Yuan Xi also understood it. He was silent for a moment and whispered: "What Brother Liu said... is very... I would like to hear the details..."
