To be crowned king, you need to build an altar, a series of preparations, and a good and auspicious day.
The newly occupied land was too chaotic during this period, and I had no time or energy to carry out the ceremony of kingship.
Therefore, the auspicious day can only be half a year later. Specifically why this day is the most auspicious, the person in charge of this can give you 10086 reasons.
Allowing such a long period of time not only allows for preliminary sorting out various issues in the newly occupied land, but also gives the family time to prepare.
Wang Xuan does not think that the family will be honest. He hopes that the family will be as prepared as possible. It is best to explode all the problems at once. The more intense the better, giving Liu Bei a chance to make up his mind. He still hopes to cut through the mess quickly.
, let the three states of Hebei go into battle lightly and avoid procrastination.
However, I don’t know if these aristocratic families have such great courage.
…
Pingxiang, Julu County.
In an inconspicuous manor outside the city, three elderly men in their forties sat around a pavilion on an artificial lake, with not even a waiter around.
Fang, Liu, and Qi Julu County's top three aristocratic family heads, it is rare that these three family heads who are usually so pampered actually cook tea themselves.
"What do you two think of what the boy named Wang said?"
The head of the Fang family put down the tea cup in his hand and said slowly: "Although his remarks are arrogant and arrogant, what Qingzhou has experienced before is right in front of him. This is undeniable."
"Yes, this child has no king, no father, no mother, so he has no worries. Judging from his behavior all the time, he started his career by gathering the Yellow Turban thieves before he challenged Dong. He is not a person with a good reputation. From then on, he behaved
He is ruthless and often wields a butcher's knife, so it is not recommended to have a head-on conflict with him." The head of the Liu family added.
"The most important point is that Liu Bei is famous for his benevolence and righteousness. He is broad-minded, tolerant, and very decisive in his actions. However, due to his background, he was left out in the cold after the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
He lost his official position because of a conflict with a local aristocratic family. I think he has no good impression of the aristocratic family."
"Not only that, according to the intelligence I collected, do you two know who the secretary who has been following Liu Bei is?" The head of the Qi family had a sneer on his lips.
"Oh, I don't know who he is?"
The head of the Qi family is not a random person. If he suddenly mentions this person at this moment, there must be something wrong.
"This person is Li Ru and Li Wenyou, Dong Zhuo's adviser who killed the young emperor and the queen mother, dug up the imperial mausoleum, and set fire to the capital Luoyang!" Every word was spoken in a low voice, but it was heard by the other two people.
Like a thunder explosion.
"What!?" Fang and Liu couldn't believe their ears. If it wasn't the head of the Qi family who said this, they would have sneered at each other.
What was Li Ru's mentality in killing the young emperor and the empress dowager? Why was he obsessed with archaeologically examining the Liu family's ancestral tombs? Was Li Ru the man behind the burning of Luoyang? What mentality did Liu Bei have in letting Li Ru stay with him? This
Behind everything, is the distortion of human nature or the loss of morality?
"Then Liu Bei is crazy, he even dares to use Li Ru?" the head of the Fang family said with a look of disbelief.
"Why don't you dare to use it?" A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of the Qi family's mouth, "The emperor is dead, so Liu Bei actually has no relationship with the royal family, so what if he uses it!"
"There may not be anything to do about this matter!" The head of the Liu family pondered for a moment and said in a low voice: "In any case, this Li Ru can be said to be the gravedigger of the Han Dynasty. If we publicize this matter to the world,
, Hehe, I am a big man who governs the country with filial piety, but he, Liu Bei, even dares to use Li Ru, he is simply a generation who has forgotten his ancestors. How can such people live in the world, and what qualifications do they have to rule the world!"
The three of them looked at each other. This matter is somewhat feasible. As long as they add some fuel and jealousy, Liu Bei will be completely without a king and a father in the eyes of the world. The reputation foundation he laid before will be lost in one fell swoop!
"This matter can be done, but it will definitely take a long time. I have called you two to discuss something this time." The head of the Qi family looked at the two of them and said slowly: "As far as I know, due to the stiff relationship with the aristocratic family, the entire Hebei Province is now
All the big and small families are waiting and watching, and officials from all over the country are also waiting for Liu Bei's next move. Many of the county officials are from other states and counties, and many have simply resigned."
"Moreover, the official system in Qingzhou under Liu Bei was very complicated. Now there is an extremely large shortage of officials under Hebei. We, Julu County, have to discuss where to go with the two of us."
"What's there to say? Since Liu Bei doesn't want to use people from my family, do we still need to ask him to weave mats and sell shoes? After King Jing of Zhongshan, hehe, it's a joke!" What did Liu Bei achieve?
It doesn't matter what his achievements are. Today's Liu Bei has not been personally recognized by the emperor. This emperor's uncle is not recognized by the family at all. Therefore, based on Liu Bei's current background, the family has enough reasons to look down on him. This is why everyone is unwilling to serve Liu Bei.
reason.
Shame on you!
"Master Fang, please don't be angry." Master Liu was fat, sitting on a chair with a smile and said slowly, "I think we should actively cooperate with Liu Bei."
"What do you mean!?" The head of the Fang family glanced at the fat man dissatisfied.
"Because Liu Bei's subordinates don't want people from aristocratic families to participate too much!" The head of the Liu family stretched out his fat hand and gestured, "We are modest gentlemen with a well-educated family background. Naturally, we cannot be like those who weave mats and sell shoes and ignore the people of the world.
People's livelihood, we are working hard at this time, not for Liu Bei, but for all the people in the world. That's why we do this act of repaying evil with kindness!"
"You...!" The man surnamed Fang was the head of the family after all. He understood what the fat man meant as soon as he heard it, and then laughed loudly and said: "You still have more ideas. The less he wants us to do it, the less likely we are to do it."
To do this, we need to promote it more, and when the time comes, let’s see how Liu Bei can disguise himself!”
"Brother's brilliant plan!" The head of the Qi family also clapped his hands and laughed.
The strategy was finalized, and the three families began to act separately. With the three families' control over the entire Julu County, within five days, all the wealthy families in the county, big and small, received the relevant information.
It's just that the statement has been changed a bit, and the main emphasis is that after the war, the people have no life, so why should the people deserve it!
Local aristocratic families should consider the people and not cause the people to suffer due to personal grudges. Even if they do not hold an official position and are not liked by Liu Bei, they should still actively cooperate with official actions to promote local stability and hope that the people can live and work in peace and contentment!
At this time, we saw how far the aristocratic family had penetrated the local area. With the unified efforts of the aristocratic families in the county, within a short period of time, local pavilion chiefs in every pavilion and every mile began to organize manpower to promote the campaign.
, within three days, no one among the hundreds of thousands of people in the county knew about it.
