Yuan Shu had just argued with Yuan Shao, and now he expressed his thoughts in front of everyone. Jianyuan proclaimed himself emperor. Everyone knew that Yuan Shu had made up his mind, so they remained silent. Only the chief clerk, Yan Xiang, stood up and bowed: "My Lord, no! Xi
Houji of Zhou Dynasty accumulated virtues and achievements, and as for King Wen, he had two out of three parts of the world, and he still served Yin. Although the Lord's family was noble, it was not as prosperous as Zhou Dynasty; although the Han Dynasty was small, it was not as violent as Yin Zhou. This matter is definitely not feasible.
"When Yuan Shu heard this, he was furious and said: "My surname Yuan comes from Chen, who is the successor of Shun. The earth is used to carry fire, which is in line with its destiny. He also prophesied: 'Whoever succeeds the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaoye.' My name is
The highway is in response to his prophecy. There is also a jade seal passed down to the country. If you are not a king, you are betraying the law of heaven. I have made up my mind, and anyone who talks too much will be killed!" Yan Xiang had no choice but to sigh and retreat. In March of the first year of Jian'an,
In Shouchun, Yuan Shu was proclaimed the Son of Heaven, established the Zhong clan, established a public official, and established temples in the northern and southern suburbs.
As soon as the news that Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun came out, all the princes were furious. Sun Ce of Jiangdong immediately issued a statement to the world, breaking away from Yuan Shu and denounced Yuan Shu's crimes. Guangling prefect Wu Jing and general Sun Ben also immediately expressed their disgrace to Yuan Shu.
As a result, Yuan Shu defected to Sun Ce's command, causing Yuan Shu to lose Guangling, Jiangdong and other large areas of land, and his power was weakened.
In order to boost the morale and morale of the army, Yuan Shu ignored the dissuasion of his adviser Yan Xiang and appointed Zhang Xun as his general in May of the first year of Jian'an. He commanded an army of more than 200,000 and divided the army into seven groups to conquer Xuzhou: General Zhang Xun was in the middle of the first group.
On the second route, General Qiao Rui is on the left, on the third route, Chen Ji is on the right, on the fourth route, deputy general Lei Bo is on the left, on the fifth route, deputy general Chen Lan is on the right, on the sixth route, Han Siam is on the left, and on the seventh route, Yuan Tan is on the right. Each leader has a strong general,
They set out on the day of the day. With Ji Ling as the envoy to rescue all seven groups, Yuan Shu personally led 30,000 troops and marched toward Xuzhou in a mighty manner.
After the battle between Cao Cao and Tao Qian last year, Xuzhou had not completely recovered its strength and could not withstand Yuan Shu's seven-pronged army. Tao Qian immediately ordered the Lingbi, Sizhou, Huaiyin, and Huai'an garrison to retreat to Pengcheng, and ordered Dian to
Agricultural school captain Chen Deng sent an envoy to Jizhou to ask for help from Liu Lin. At this time, Cao Cao, who was in Xuchang, saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of this battle. He appointed Cao Ren and Xu Chu as deputy generals and immediately led 20,000 of the most elite tiger and leopard cavalry.
Garrisoned in Xiyang.
In the early morning, the heavy bells began to reverberate over Mingde Gate. The sky was not yet bright, but there was only a hint of blue and white on the horizon. Jizhou City was still asleep, but there were already many horse-drawn carriages running back and forth on the wide Zhuque Street.
There were hanging lanterns emitting orange-red light, which stood out in the gray morning mist.
A carriage, escorted by hundreds of cavalry, slowly headed towards the palace. This was the carriage of King Liu Lin of Yan. Many officials on the road stepped aside and gave way respectfully. When the carriage passed by,
They rode forward again. Liu Lin looked at the court officials outside from the curtains on the carriage. He felt relieved that the state affairs were now on track and all the ministries were operating normally. What made Liu Lin most gratified was the Political Affairs Hall.
The division of powers among the prime ministers allowed him to avoid a single family. Nowadays, various powers in the court are intertwined and compete with each other. This is what Liu Lin also hopes. After all, a great man once said that if there are no factions in the party, there are all kinds of strange things. As long as
If you make good use of it, it is a sharp sword in your hand.
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Danyang Gate of the palace. The Danyang Gate guard hurriedly stepped forward and clasped his fists and said, "The last general, Huang Xu, has met His Highness King Yan!" Liu Lin looked at Huang Xu, who was about the same age as him, thinking that he had met him for the first time that year.
When he was there, he was still a young man tortured by disease in the hospital bed. Now he is no longer pale, but has a ruddy complexion and a burly figure. He originally followed Huang Zhong in the army, but later Liu Lin took care of Huang Zhong.
Huang Xu was transferred from the army and served as a county captain in Jizhou Prefecture. However, Huang Xu still loved the army. Liu Lin had no choice but to transfer Huang Xuzheng into the army when the army was reorganized. The new dynasty was established.
, Liu Lin transferred the Imperial Army to form the Royal Forest Army, with Dian Wei as the General of the Royal Forest Army, Liu An and the newly defected Dong Cheng as deputy generals, and Huang Xu, Liu Lin, appointed him as the guard of Danyang Gate, that is, General Zhonglang.
Liu Lin saw Huang Xu wearing armor and a sword hanging from his waist, looking majestic. He went up and punched him in the chest and said: "You kid, why did you come to duty so soon? Don't you still have a few days? This makes you
What does it mean for a bride to stay alone in an empty house?"
Huang Xu chuckled and said: "General Dian asked me to rest at home for a few days, but I really can't stay at home. Besides, the Danyang Gate has a heavy responsibility, so I don't dare to neglect anything!" Liu Lin nodded with a smile,
Then he led dozens of personal guards and walked into Danyang Gate under the escort of Chen Dao.
Jizhou Imperial Palace occupies a large area, covering hundreds of acres. The main entrance is called Danyang Gate. After entering Danyang Gate is Qifeng Square. Directly to the north is the main hall, Xuande Hall. There are dozens of huge buildings on both sides. Here
This is where the major centers of the imperial court are located.
There is a majestic attic on both sides of Xuande Hall. The left is called Yulong Pavilion and the right is called Qifeng Pavilion. At this time, Julong Pavilion has been renamed Cangshu Pavilion, which is where the imperial court placed documents and files, while Qifeng Pavilion
It was renamed the Zhengshi Hall and was also the center of power of the entire imperial court. According to the rules agreed in advance, the Great Court was only held three times a year, once for the New Year, the Dragon Boat Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival, and once every ten days for the Mid-Autumn Festival, attended by the chief officials and deputy ministers of various ministries and temples.
To discuss important events in the court, the Small Court is held every morning. The six prime ministers gather together to discuss matters and pass them by majority vote. Some important matters must be reported to the regent for approval before they can be implemented. Since the six prime ministers each serve as ministers, they are generally in various ministries.
The official office handles court affairs, while the political hall is permanently staffed by three internal historians. In addition, the six prime ministers will take turns to govern the court. The chief minister will also work in the political hall, and he will be responsible for convening and presiding over the daily court meetings.
There is an official room behind the Government Hall, which is where Liu Lin handles government affairs. Because Liu Lin also serves as the Governor of the Governor's Office, this is also where the Governor's Office is located. It consists of seven rooms, three on the left
The first room is the recording room, the library and the waiting room. The four rooms on the right are the main room of the court, the meeting room, the marching council room and the rest room. Each room has wooden floors, is elegantly and freshly decorated, and has burning incense burners.
The faint scent of jasmine lingers in every room, making it quiet and refreshing.
Joining the army in the Record Office is equivalent to a confidential secretary in later generations. He is responsible for document confidentiality and has a fifth-grade official position. It is a very important position. Liu Lin originally planned to let Cui Yan take the position, but later Cui Yan was appointed as the internal historian, so Liu Lin asked Mao
Jie and Xu Shu were in charge, one was in charge of government and the other was in charge of the army. They were both from poor families.
