On this day, after Liu Bei made the pilgrimage to the Son of Heaven, he brought up the matter of entering Su Baijue. Now that Qingzhou is short of grain, the price of rice on the market is soaring, and this matter cannot be concealed. When something happens, you still have to find a way to solve it. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all top-notch talents in the world, and it is good to listen to their opinions.

Yang Biao, Lu Zhi and others heard that Liu Bei was going to enter Su Baijue, and they were worried, and when Emperor Xiaoling was there, they bought and sold officials, causing chaos in the world. Now that the state affairs have finally improved a little, if this wind rises again, how can it be good?

Liu Bei listened to their worries, and thought to himself that the imperial court really couldn't afford these old and serious ministers. So he said: "This is a discussion, in order to solve the dilemma of this year, next year's grain harvest, this case will be abandoned." During the period, the specific rules are presented, and I hope that the public will do their best. ”

As soon as Yang Biao and the others heard that it was a temporary policy, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, as long as they did not do this for a long time, the problem was not very big. So he agreed, promised Liu Bei, they would come to the specific operation, and then take out the plan and send it to the general's mansion for him to see.

Liu Bei threw this matter to the ministers, and went back to the house to think of other ways. At this time, Yan Rou, the Taishou of Liaodong, said that Liaodong had a bumper harvest this year, and that the imperial court was short of grain and could provide 100,000 stone of grain. Liu Bei had to report the great joy, so he asked about the situation, but it turned out that after Liaodong swept away Gongsun Du and broke Goguryeo, after many years of operation by Lu Zhi, Huang Zhong and others, there were countless fields that had been reclaimed. And as Liu Bei's momentum became bigger and bigger, King Fuyu, who had previously taken in Gongsun Du's son, was afraid, and after expelling Gongsun Kang, he came to Liaodong every year to pay tribute. Over the years, Liaodong has also left a lot of savings, and Huang Zhong was supposed to be escorted to Youzhou or Qingzhou when he was in office, but Huang Zhong was suddenly transferred back by Liu Bei to fight, so he forgot about it for a while. Yan Rou rushed to Liaodong to take office, but was shocked to see this mountain of treasury. I also heard that Qingzhou was short of food, so I came to the table.

100,000 stones, although not a lot, but it can also solve the urgent need a little. Liu Bei also ordered Yan Rou to trade grain with Fuyu, Wofu and other countries in Liaodong. These people are different from the Xiongnu and Xianbei, they are located in a fertile land, with mountains and seas, suitable for grains, and good fields. So they are all good at farming. I think there should be a lot of food in the country.

Liu Bei wrote to Zhao Yun again, since he planned to let him pick up Liu Biao. Then Yuan Shao put it away. Gao Gan went to Si Li, and he wanted to take Si Li for a while, but he was afraid that it was impossible. Then Zhang Yan can be transferred back. Zhang Yan's troops, good and bad, can basically be cut off most of them, these people can be given their fields, arranged for people to enter the households, and let them go farming.

When Liu Bei was worried about the food under his rule, Sun Ce also started to act after receiving Sun Jian's letter. After he sent an envoy to visit Cao Cao, he led his troops up the Han River, and the troops were directed at Xiangyang.

Sun Ce's move stunned Xiangyang. Liu Biao didn't expect that Cao Cao and Sun Jian would reach a tacit understanding so quickly and join hands to fight him. He was already stumbling against one alone, not to mention two at once.

At this time, Huang Zu was dead, and all those who could fight well were in Nanyang to resist Cao Cao. At the same time that the Xiangyang Shi clan panicked, the talk of surrender was even more noisy. This voice is so loud that Liu Biao almost has an irrepressible momentum. This is the case in history, as soon as Liu Biao died, not long after the funeral, Liu Cong was forced to surrender by a group of courtiers.

In this chaotic era, how to protect themselves and their families and try to obtain greater and more benefits is the first choice of the scholars. As for the loyal monarch or the disloyal monarch, hehe, there are two kings in the world, and they still care about this? Don't you know that the people of the times are handsome?

Of course, this is not the case for everyone. In later generations, even the Manchu Qing Dynasty had so many diehards, not to mention the Eastern Han Dynasty, which was still upright, respected honesty and shame, had the most beautiful customs, and was known as the most prosperous Confucianism.

In a house in Xiangyang, Pang Degong discussed with his clansmen how to deal with the situation in Xiangyang in the future. Pang Degong, a celebrity in Xiangyang, is the one who historically called Zhuge Liang Wolong, Pang Tong as a phoenix, and Sima Decao as a water mirror. Of course, he also has a famous nephew, Pang Tong.

Pang Tong was just ridiculed by Sima De as the crown of Nanzhou scholars. Now this high-spirited young man has not yet come out. I'm staying at home.

Uncle Pound called the public to discuss the matter, and he also came. Hearing the discussion at home, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "If you listened to my words back then and moved your family to Qingzhou, why bother Xiangyang today?" ”

He is talking about Liu Bei when he was in Qingzhou Academy, and the Confucians from all over the world came together. At that time, there were also people in Jingzhou, and Song Zhong was one. At that time, Pang Tong also persuaded his family to move north. but it was regarded as the words of a child. Of course, he was still young at that time.

During the banquet, when everyone heard Pang Tong's words, they couldn't help but blush slightly. Back then, Liu Bei only had a Qingzhou, and there were strong enemies like Yuan Shao on the side, how could they dare to go? They are not the kind of people who do anything for the sake of learning. It's better to stay in Jingzhou, a paradise. Who would have thought that in this world, Liu Bei is becoming more and more prosperous in the north, but Jingzhou is in danger.

Seeing that the audience was silent, Pang Degong couldn't help but glared at Pang Tong's eyes angrily, and said, "The past matters, don't talk about it again." Let's talk about what's in front of you. ”

As a member of the Xiangyang Shi clan, Cao Cao really came in, so did he choose to flee or choose to surrender? With Pang Degong and Pang Tong's celebrities, even if you want to be a hermit, you can't do it. It was impossible for Cao Cao not to conquer them.

When everyone heard this, they began to discuss it again. Pang Degong listened left and right, but it was not to his liking. When I looked at Pang Tong again, I saw that he was closing his eyes and recuperating. As soon as his heart turned, he called Pang Tong: "Shiyuan, what do you think?" ”

Pang Tong opened his eyes and said, "If you only want to protect the family, you can lower Cao Cao." If you want to make a contribution and reach future generations, you can only go to the north. ”

When the crowd heard this, their voices were silenced. Then one person immediately spoke out against it: "Shiyuan's words are wrong, if Cao Mengde enters Jingzhou, my generation can also be under his command, how can he not make meritorious contributions and shadow his descendants?" ”

Pang Tong sneered: "When Liu Xuande raised troops and came, what about us? Do you want to drop it again? ”

The man's face couldn't hold it, so he said, "How does Shi Yuan know that Cao Gong can't beat Liu Xuande?" ”

Pang Tong said: "Yuan Shao is in danger, and he asked Cao Mengde for help several times, but he didn't dare to respond, but he raised troops to fight Jingzhou. Joining forces with the Yuan clan does not dare to compete with it, now that the Yuan clan has been defeated, can the Ducao clan resist Liu Qingzhou? ”

Everyone was silent. Liu Bei is really fierce, and the two brothers of the Yuan family, who are the heads of the world's noble clans, have been beaten to the ground. This record is here, who in the world dares to say that it is not convinced?
