Chapter 255: The Xuzhou Rebellion
Hearing that Yuan Shu had seized Yangzhou, the princes of the world were helpless, and at the same time, their hearts were full of luck. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info fortunately, his brothers didn't deal with it, otherwise the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu would have mixed together, and this would be the end.
The minds of the princes were complicated. I want to be self-reliant, but I am afraid that I am not strong enough. Therefore, a nominal Son of Heaven is still necessary to exist at present. I was really wronged, but there was still a mediator. So next, Zhao Qi went around in Zhuzhou, more or less, and gained some. Even in the chaotic Xuzhou, he did not return empty-handed.
Many years after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there were finally people who dared to defy the world's condemnation and rebelled and claimed to be the "Son of Heaven". Throughout the hundreds of years of history of the Han Dynasty, it is not uncommon for troops to rebel and rebel. But there are not many people who call themselves "Son of Heaven". Although it is cool to call "the Son of Heaven", it is a proper family crematorium. Basically, I don't even have the qualifications to be recruited. You don't see, the demons are like Zhang Jiao and the like, don't you just call yourself a general. In fact, many rebels have already made a good calculation, and if they can do something, they will change their names in the future, and if they can't do it, then they will surrender. Even if you are guilty of a great crime and you can't escape death, your family can always be saved.
It's a pity that the thief Que Xuan doesn't understand this truth. There are only thousands of people and horses, and as soon as their heads are hot, they call themselves the Son of Heaven. However, Que Xuan's head is not very sober, and he still has a little bit of ability. Unexpectedly, with these thousands of men and horses, they attacked the city and the county, and stirred up half of Xuzhou without peace.
Since Zhongping came to Xuzhou for five years, Tao Qian has been operating with his heart. On the one hand, the thieves were recruited, and on the other hand, the displaced people were helped. It has also identified a lot of talents. For example, Wang Lang, Zhao Yu, Chen Deng, Zang Ba, Sun Guan, Lu Zhu and others. These people are either civil or martial, with outstanding abilities, and many proud. Three under five divided by two, it didn't take long to assist Tao Qian to govern Xuzhou in an orderly manner. Although it is not as good as Qingzhou meteorology. But it can be regarded as the prosperity of the people, and the grain is very rich. It is because many of the nearby homeless people are also attached to it.
Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived. Tao Qian was ambitious before. After a serious illness a few years ago, my body was much weaker. Look at it again, I am also a sixty-year-old old man, I have a few years to live, so don't toss, while I am not dead, enjoy a few years of happiness. If this person wants to be better, it is a thousand difficulties. If you want to have fun, isn't that easy?
So since last year, Tao Qian has begun to ignore the criminal government and focus on pleasure. The ministers who assisted him in governing Xuzhou, don't drive Zhao Yu and Wang Lang in Zhizhong, persuaded him a few times, Tao Qian became impatient. Zhao Yu was the Taishou of Guangling; Wang Lang is too guarded by the auditors. Keep them away, out of sight and out of mind. Fortunately, Tao Qian still misses some old feelings, otherwise he would have directly resigned to the people in white. Zhao Yu and Wang Lang are treated like this, how dare others speak up? Yes, my lord, enjoy it. Anyway, you don't feel sorry for your own family business, what are we worried about? So, from then on, Xuzhou was loyal and straightforward, and the villain saw the letter.
Que Xuan rebelled in Xiapi, but the Xuzhou Mufu in Xiapi didn't react until two days later. This has to be said to be a miracle (Tao Qian moved the Xuzhou administrative office from Tancheng to Xiapi). Of course, Xia Picheng Que Xuan hasn't come in yet, so he doesn't have the ability or the courage. As a result, countless storms were stirred up in the surrounding counties of Xiapi.
There are two flowers, one on each branch. Not to mention how Tao Qian dispatched troops to deal with the anti-thief Que Xuan. said that this rebellion alarmed a family in Langya Kingdom.
In Yangdu County, Zhuge Xuan was frowning. He was in Jingzhou before, and suddenly heard that his brother Zhuge Jue died. So he had to hurriedly ask for his resignation from Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao and return to his hometown to deal with his brother's funeral. The Zhuge family is also a prestigious family in Yangdu. The ancestor Zhuge Feng once served as the captain of Sili, and his brother was also Taishan County before his death. The elder brother left, leaving orphans and widows, and he couldn't come forward. The funeral must be solemn, and you can't let others laugh at it.
After dealing with the funeral of his brother Zhuge Jue, he stayed in his hometown to take care of the children left by his brother. Fortunately, the eldest nephew Zhuge Jin is already more than ten years old, so he doesn't have to worry too much. He put more energy on teaching Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun's two little nephews.
Seeing that this year, the nephews' filial piety will be exhausted, and the mourning clothes will be removed. He moved his mind and wanted to take the Zhuge family to Jingzhou to join Liu Biao.
In recent years, the Central Plains has not been peaceful, there are wars everywhere, and dead people are everywhere. Jingzhou is quite calm, although it has fought against Yuan Shu, but Xiangyang is the rear and is very safe. Moreover, Liu Biao also attaches great importance to Zhuge Xuan. The two are also more talkative. Zhuge Xuan likes the atmosphere of Xiangyang.
But when I was about to tell my nephews that I would take them to move next month, the news came. The thief Que Xuan rebelled.
Zhuge Xuan, this is depressed! When is it not good to rebel, but choose this time? Once this battle starts, the devil knows when it will be over? The most important thing is that Que Xuan, a puppet and a thief, blocked the road to Jingzhou.
Of course, it doesn't mean that Que Xuan rebelled, so Zhuge Xuan couldn't find a way to Jingzhou. Open the map of the Great Han. I found that to go to Jingzhou from Yangdu County, Langya County, Xuzhou, the most labor-saving and safest is to take a boat down the Yishui River, enter Surabaya, and then go up the river. Although it took a detour, it was not much slower than the overland route. The most important thing is safety.
Zhuge Xuan has been running around for many years, and he knows that there are so many rogues outside now. He was just alone, taking the old and the young, the men and women, the slaves, the family members, and the hundred and ten people, and he couldn't go fast. He still has a lot of property on his body (moving), which is strange if he is not targeted by those thieves.
Zhuge Xuan's heirs are difficult, not that he can't give birth, but that he didn't bring them well, resulting in several premature deaths. Now that he has no one under his knees, these baby bumps left by his brother are the treasures in his palm, and they can't be damaged in the slightest. From Yishui to Surabaya, it has to pass through the entire Xiapi rebel area. Taking the waterway does not mean that you will not go ashore if you are on the boat day and night, how dare Zhuge Xuan take risks?
was worried, Zhuge Jin brought Zhuge Liang and Zhuge Jun to see his uncle. It's nothing, call him to eat.
Zhuge Jin, this kid has won the crown this year, he is an adult, he is more observant, and when he saw Zhuge Xuan's worried face, he hurriedly asked: "Why is my uncle worried?" ”
The children of the poor are in charge of the house early, in fact, the children without a father can also be in charge of the house early. Although Zhuge Xuan has always loved his nephews, he is very strict with Zhuge Jin, the eldest grandson of the Zhuge family. I started to train him interestingly early.
So when he saw Zhuge Jin asking, he was not surprised, so he said: "At the end of the month, the Ru brothers will be removed, and I intend to lead you and others to Jingzhou Liu Envoy Jun next month." Unintentionally, the thief Que rebelled, and the road was cut off, and I don't know when it will be restored. Worried about it. ”
Zhuge Jin didn't have any opinion that his uncle was going to Liu Biaona. Since the death of his father, Zhuge Xuan has the final say on all major matters in the family.
As for Zhuge Xuan's thoughts, he felt that although some of the old things of the Zhuge family could help. But first, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian is getting old, and in the past two years, he has only cared about pleasure and ignored political affairs. He didn't really want to be a career in Xuzhou. Second, there is chaos in the world, many people are mud bodhisattvas who cross the river and it is difficult to protect themselves, and it is very difficult to arrange a good position for Zhuge Xuan. So Zhuge Xuan thought about it and thought about it, and felt that it was reliable to go to Jingzhou. Not only can you avoid the scourge of war, but you can also get along with Liu Biao and the two monarchs and ministers, why not?
Zhuge Jin said: "Can you go to Jingzhou by land?" "Uncle's career is related to the survival of the Zhuge family in the future, this is a very important matter, and you can't ignore it.
Zhuge Xuan sighed: "The land road is far and dangerous, and today there is chaos, and thieves and bandits are emerging in endlessly. I'm still afraid of being alone, and I have a family! ”
Zhuge Jin then persuaded: "Uncle don't worry, Tao Envoy Jun will not sit idly by and watch the thief, the kid expects that there will be good news soon." When the thief is ambushed, the uncle can set off on another day. ”
Zhuge Xuan thought to himself, I have been away from Jingzhou for several years, and if I don't go, Liu Jingsheng has no impression of me, but I am afraid that the good positions will be occupied by others. Of course, he couldn't say this to his eldest nephew, so he said, "That's it." ”
Zhuge Xuan is actually really in a hurry. Didn't I see a few nephews in addition to filial piety this month, and he was in a hurry to move with the Zhuge family next month? But things are in such a hurry, what can he do, he has to wait.
Zhuge Xuan was about to get up, when suddenly a young and crisp voice sounded: "Uncle, why do you have to go to Jingzhou?" Isn't it good to go to Qingzhou? ”
Zhuge Xiaoliang, who still had two pigtails on his head, spoke.
Zhuge Xuan smiled dumbly, of course it was good to go to Jingzhou, how could Qingzhou compare to Jingzhou...... Ouch, Qingzhou!
A shocking thunderbolt suddenly sounded in his head, and Zhuge Xuan looked at his lovely second nephew. Seeing Zhuge Liang staring at him innocently, he thought, Liang'er is a little smart and witty, and listen to what he says. So he smiled and said, "Come, Liang'er, tell your uncle, how did you think of going to Qingzhou?" ”
Zhuge Liang tilted his head and thought about it, and said, "Uncle often talks to my brother about people in the world. As the saying goes, Liu Qingzhou is the hero of the world. In just a few years, Qingzhou has been ruled and the people have prospered. And I heard that Liu Qingzhou opened a big academy in Qingzhou, and half of the world's Confucianism is there. There are Zheng Kangcheng, Lu Zigan, Cai Bojiao, and most importantly, Kong Wenju. Liang'er wants to go there to study. And Qingzhou is still close to home, when are we homesick, it's so convenient to come back......"
Thirteen-year-old Zhuge Liang didn't say a few words. Zhuge Xuan's heart moved.
Qingzhou has Liu Bei in charge, not to mention that the road is not forgotten, it is basically the same. Under Liu Bei's iron fist, all the thieves were swept away. The public security environment, looking at the world, can basically be said that there are few places that can be compared. And Liu Bei has a good governance, Qingzhou is very rich compared to other places, I heard that Liu Bei is also very generous, whether it is a soldier or an army, he is very generous. Every year, he spends so much money to set up a academy, and raises so many "idlers" to quarrel and spray in the academy. Well, I heard that Liu Bei is still thirsty for talent, Corporal Lixian, with his own ability, it is not difficult to get ahead, right?
The more Zhuge Xuan thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, but all migrant workers, since ancient times, no one has not thought about having more money, less things, and being close to home. Zhuge Xuan is no exception. Qingzhou has to occupy several of them, right? You see that the law and order are good, the salary is high, and with so much Confucian power, the children's educational conditions seem to be very superior, and Linzi, the Qingzhou Governance Center, is next to Langya. When you want to go back to your hometown to worship your ancestors, you don't have to travel thousands of miles, you will arrive in a few days. This, this is so convenient, where can I find such a good place to work? Why did you lose your mind and want to go to Jingzhou and forget about Qingzhou?
The more Zhuge Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that Zhuge Liang's proposal was reliable, and when he looked at Zhuge Liang again, he loved it more and more.
