Chapter Eighty-Four: Who Dares to Stop Me

The news that Yanbei entered Sizhou to welcome the emperor with great fanfare, and the shock of Kanto is needless to say. The most terrifying nature is Yuan Shao of Qingzhou and Cao Cao of Yanzhou, they are the closest to the Yan family, even the head corner boy can understand that once Yanbei enters Beijing to control the situation, what will follow is bound to be the Kwantung chaos.

And in this predictable chaos, the first to bear the brunt must be the Yan army, which was ordered by the emperor to beg for ministers, rolling south. Cao Cao can be blocked? Yuan Shao can be blocked? Or can they block it, dare to block it?

Emperor, after Dong Zhuo's rebellion, became a title that the princes of the world knew but did not say. Between flattering the emperor and hostile imperial power, most later chose to turn a blind eye. Although the desire to control the government is like a cat's claw constantly scratching the heart, the fear of holding the imperial power is also tormenting the princes of all walks of life.

Since the collapse of imperial power, even a mere county order can taste the taste of power, not to mention these princes who are thousands of miles away! Every inch of the land sheltered by their name was watered by them with the blood and lives of their subordinates, even if they were loyal to the Han family and said that they would give up their hands to the emperor...... Who can stop the water?

No one wants to welcome the emperor, after tasting power and freedom, even if they still have enough awe and loyalty to the imperial power in their hearts, all they want is to hope that the emperor can be safer, free from the suffering of displacement, and have no worries about food and clothing.

Even Cao Cao, who had been hoping to open the road to the west and go to Guanzhong to pay tribute to the emperor...... Cao Cao did want to welcome the emperor under his protection, and he was loyal to pacify the world.

In fact, if he can make such an idea of flattering the emperor, as a prince of the Kwantung region, loyalty to the Han family is indispensable. However, on the contrary, even if the capital is moved to Yanzhou, everyone understands that the imperial power is no longer the same as before, and Cao Cao, as a prince, is even more unlikely to delegate power.

Why did he delegate power? To pacify the Quartet, it is impossible for the emperor to personally ride a horse; As for governing the place, he Cao Cao did much better than the imperial court!

But the emperor was controlled by Yanbei, but it was different...... Cao Cao didn't believe that Yan Zhongqing, who could kick over Kong Ling's case in the sour jujube back then, could have some respect for the imperial power, and the tiger of Liaodong did not have the slightest breath of the ministers of the Anping era in the past, and he didn't even understand any court etiquette, what is the difference between the emperor in his hands and in Li Guo's hands?

What's more, Yanbei is not so upright this time, he first released troops to attack the various passes west of Xingyang, and the Hun cavalry who fought for the tiger roared and swept through the east of the tiger prison to pull out all the eyelines in Yanzhou, and then blocked the tiger prison pass, what is this for, in order to block his way to the west of Cao Cao!

If Cao Cao's mentality towards Yanbei's move was more indignant, Yuan Shao, who was far away in Qingzhou, was more angry and uneasy. There was no emperor in Yanbei, and it was difficult to fight from the north, driving him out of Jizhou like a lost dog to seize the entire land of Hebei. Transporting grain for disaster relief all year round made people think that Yanbei was proud and complacent and did not want to forge ahead, but before he could be happy for a moment because of the opportunity to breathe, it was rumored that Yanbei went west to welcome the emperor.

Inclusion of Youji not only did not satisfy Yanbei, but also stimulated its desire to annex the world!

Yuan Shao was reluctant to welcome the emperor, even if he was only a state pastor with most of Qingzhou, but the emperor was absolutely indispensable when he arrived here, which he did not want. But this was not a little happier because Yanbei welcomed the emperor, and the situation became worse. He doesn't flatter the emperor, but he doesn't want others to flatter, the emperor had better stay in Chang'an all the time, and honestly guard the two Xiliang ghosts of Li Dao and Guo Yan!

However, the general situation in the Kanto region is still slightly better, although Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei said that they planned to join forces to attack Yuan Shu, but because of the movement of Yanbei in the north, they could only stop the pace of going south, and Yuan Shu on the other side sent envoys to negotiate peace with them after receiving the news, and Yuan Shu's reason was ...... Yanbei wants to hold the emperor hostage, and we should fight him in the north, not continue to fight in the south.

The excuse is lame, but it is extremely effective at this moment, and no one has the heart to fight life and death in the places of Yu, Yang, and Xuzhou, and they have sent envoys and envoys to infiltrate Guanzhong.

If you can overlook the earth above the nine heavens, the routes of the envoys sent by the Kwantung princes after Yanbei entered Luo are connected together, and they suddenly look like a spider web...... Yuan Shao's envoys went west to Guanzhong and south to Jingzhou and Xuzhou; Cao Cao's envoy went to Guanzhong without stopping; Yuan Shu's envoys did not go to Guanzhong at all, but all poured into Xuzhou and Qingzhou.

As for Liu Bei, Liu Bei obediently guarded one acre and three points of land in Xuzhou, and prepared soldiers and horses to guard it to the death. The situation was too chaotic for Liu Bei to tell who was his ally and who was his enemy, and in an instant, the enemy and I were in a hurry, as if we were friends on all sides.

He can only respond to change with the same.

Liu Biao of Jingzhou seemed very independent, and entertained the envoys of Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao and others with all kinds of banquets, and then sent them from where they came. Although he did not have the idea of marching to the north together, Liu Biao did not have the desire to go north to attach himself to the Yan family, so he just felt at ease to do what the state pastor should do in Jingzhou.

Yan Bei, who arrived in Pingyin, didn't know that these things were happening in the south, and no one around him had ever entered the imperial court, even if he even slept at the old site of the Luoyang Imperial Palace, and he didn't have the background of the hundred officials and ministers in the Anping period in the past, so he still didn't look like a male lord who could be called 'Yan Gong' by the people.

In fact, Yanbei has enough strength to let him go to Luoyang to show that the world is in control, he is the pride of the ceremony, but Yanbei does not want to do that. Over the past few years, from Liaodong to the domination of Hebei, Yanbei's personality or style of action has become more and more biased towards real politics.

If the purpose of all his efforts is to pacify the world, then all wars and peace negotiations are only one of the means to achieve the goal.

In the current situation, Yanbei is still not forced to enter the court than relying on the prestige of the army, it is far better to lower his posture and give the emperor and other princes the respect and affection that the emperor and other princes have not given, which is more beneficial to him to the Yanbei army.

Bursting like thunder, it can't compare to spring breeze and rain.

Fortunately, Tai Shici volunteered to participate in this Jinluo, otherwise Yanbei would really not be able to find a person around him who knew a little bit about the etiquette of the imperial court.

However, during the long time of waiting for Li Dao to march eastward, Yanbei was not idle, he was looking for the weakest link of his army in the vast northern map.

Perhaps it was the fact that he was born humble, and all the joyful moments of complacency awakened in him the uneasiness caused by a sense of foreboding. The more critical he was, the more difficult it was for him to rest assured.

"Send a message to Yecheng and ask him to prepare a heavy gift to the generals and colonels of various departments to stabilize the morale of the army. Yanbei is about to enter Luoyang to welcome the emperor, and he will be honored with all the monarchs! Yan Bei said, the perennial knife did not leave his hand with a thick calloused fingertip frosted through the leather scroll map, pressed on the position of Hanoi County and said: "Order General Gao Ran to make his subordinates Zhang Jaw lead the troops to repair the army; Ask Zhang Yan to lead the army out of Montenegro to sing the court; Hanoi Taishou Guo Xin's subordinate captain Bei Yan led troops to Tunhuai County...... All ministries strictly guard against Cao Yan and Yuan Qing in Henan, and the princes in the north return to their hearts, who dares to stop me from welcoming the emperor! ”
