Chapter 1042: Liu Ji, King of Shu (II)
Chapter 1042: Liu Ji, King of Shu (II)
In March of the second year of Chuping (191), Ba County guarded Liu Ji and proclaimed himself king in Ba County, and the country name was 'Shu'.
Bajun Taishou Liu Ji is also called the king, and he is still called the king of Shu.
As soon as the news spread, it set off an uproar, followed by more questions.
First of all, although Dong Zhuo's feudal king has sealed all the princes in the world, there are not many princes who really dare to accept his canonization, and most of them have not ended well.
Wang Lang is about to be destroyed by Sun Jian;
Liu He completely betrayed his relatives and left, and even had to rely on Gongsun Zan to reluctantly confront Liu Che;
Huang Chao may be the only prince who has become more and more prosperous after accepting the partition.
Since the risk of accepting the partition is so great, why does Liu Ji want to be the king at such a critical juncture?
Secondly, because Liu Ji was the Taishou of Ba County, the prince that Dong Zhuo gave him was naturally 'King Ba', but what Liu Ji called was 'King of Shu'.
Shu is still in the hands of Liu Yu, and Liu Ji has not yet occupied Shu, but he dares to call himself the king of Shu, it can be seen that his ambitions for Shu have reached the point of not being disguised, so he is not afraid of attracting Liu Yan's crusade?
Finally, not claiming to be king according to the edict of the king is also equivalent to claiming the king without authorization, which is basically not much different from rebellion.
Liu Ji is a relative of the Han family, and now that he is in a good form, is it necessary to take such a big risk and forcibly claim the king?
All in all, Liu Ji's claim to be the king, no matter from which point of view, reveals this kind of weirdness, which is really a bit unpredictable.
But the ensuing news shocked everyone.
The young emperor Liu Bian did not die at the hands of Dong Zhuo, but was rescued in time by Liu Ji, and Liu Bian verified Liu Ji's identity and determined Liu Ji's true identity.
It turned out that Liu Ji was actually the eldest son of the first emperor, the half-brother of the young emperor Liu Bian and the young emperor Liu He.
This news shocked all the princes of the world, and no one thought that Liu Hong, the faint king, would secretly hide a son, and pave the way for this son.
Liu Ji's edict to seal the king did not come from Dong Zhuo's edict, but the edict left by the first emperor Liu Hong.
The edict in Liu Ji's hand, which covered the jade seal of the country, was naturally much more legitimate than Dong Zhuo's edict, and with the noble status of the eldest son of the first emperor, it was completely reasonable to call the king, and the princes couldn't find fault at all.
However, although the other princes can't find fault, it doesn't mean that Liu Yan will be indifferent, after all, Shu is Liu Yan's territory, and Liu Ji dares to be called the king of Shu without occupying Shu, which is simply a rhythm to tear his face.
But later people learned that Liu Yan had died of illness, and after his son Liu Yu succeeded to the throne, he was also defeated by a barbarian tribe leader named Zhu Rongchi (Chi You) like his father Liu Yan.
Liu Yu counted on Liu Ji to help him fight off the barbarians, and it was too late to hug his thighs, so how could he completely turn his face with Liu Ji because of a king name.
It was only at this time that people finally understood that Liu Ji said that the king was the right time, place, and people, and he would not take any risks at all!
After coming to this conclusion, most of the princes were a little sour in their hearts, and they were also extremely envious, jealous and hateful to Liu Ji.
Who doesn't want to be the king, but the risk is too great, and if you are not careful, you will attract a crusade from all sides.
But Liu Ji, this guy, relying on his background, and a faint father, easily sat on the throne, which made other princes how could they not be jealous, but they couldn't help each other at all.
Zhu Ti County, Liu Yu big account.
"Liu Ji ......"
Liu Yu's angry roar resounded throughout the big tent.
Liu Yu, who has always been calm and calm, was naturally stimulated by Liu Ji's action of calling him the king of Shu.
Liu Yu is the pastor of Yizhou and the lord of Shu, but Liu Ji snatched the title of King of Shu, which made Liu Yu not angry.
You Liu Ji can obviously be called the King of Ba, but you are called the King of Shu, don't you know that Shu is not yours?
Although Liu Ji made an excuse and said that it was sealed by the first emperor in advance, Liu Yu thought that Liu Ji did it on purpose.
Liu Ji didn't even bother to cover it up, thinking that sooner or later he would take the land of Shu from his hands, so why not call the king of Shu in advance?
This is a great shame for Liu Yu, it can be said that no matter how angry Liu Yu is, he can't help Liu Ji at this time, after all, he still has to rely on Liu Ji to deal with Chiyou, so Liu Yu must endure this breath no matter how unhappy he is.
Liu Yu's eyes were cold, and he said with a grim face: "Liu Ji, let's see." ”

Luoyang.
After Qin Haoqiang stayed with Li Xiuning for a few days, he was still seen by Li Xiuning.
"Qin Hao, what are you hiding from me?" Li Xiuning asked.
Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said, "You think too much." ”
"Then why don't you let me go?"
"Let's go?"
Qin Hao's gaze became presumptuous, and he looked at Li Xiuning unscrupulously, and said with an evil smile: "Why do you want to let you go?" You're my trophy! ”
Li Xiuning's face turned red when he heard this, and after glaring at Qin Hao fiercely, he turned his head and left directly, but Qin Hao was relieved when he saw this.
"Alas, it's a day to be able to hide it."
A hint of complexity flashed in Qin Hao's eyes, and he whispered to himself: "If you can, I hope you will never know this bad news." ”
Although Li Xiuning is not Qin Hao's wife and concubine, the two have the reality of husband and wife after all, and Qin Hao is really ruthless in treating his own woman, and even wants to compensate Li Xiuning, so he has not killed Li Shimin until now.
Qin Hao is definitely not a soft-hearted person, but now he has become a bit of a woman's kindness, which makes Qin Hao feel a little strange, because this is not his style at all.
Qin Hao couldn't think of the reason after thinking about it, and in the end, it could only be attributed to the fact that he had been holding back for too long this year, so that he easily showed his feelings for Li Xiuning.
"Qin Hao, in a few days, Wan Nian, Gui Ying, and Qingyi will arrive in Luoyang with their children, and then you will change back to your original self." Qin Haozi said to himself in his heart.
After the end of the Nanxiang Campaign, the Women's Army escorted Liu Xie, Jia Xu, and Qin Hao's family to Luoyang for the first time, and I am afraid that it will be there in five or six days.
Qin Hao transferred the Women's Army to Luoyang, in fact, it was mainly to protect the Women's Army, after all, even he felt that it was a little cruel for women to go to the battlefield, but all the Women's Army wanted to prove themselves.
In order to make these female soldiers feel that they were not looked down upon, Qin Hao decided to let the women's army maintain law and order in Luoyang and the surrounding areas, and in this way, 5,000 troops could be saved for other purposes.
In addition, the recruitment of female soldiers is much more difficult than that of male soldiers, and the Luoyang family was slaughtered not long ago, and the large number of women, children and women left behind can just become the source of soldiers for the women's army.
