It's already the end of August, and at this time, Sima Zhao should almost be dead, and there are rumors that Sima Zhao was laughed to death by Liu Chan's sentence "Happy here, don't think about Shu".

This will never be true, Sima Zhao is not much stronger than Liu Chan, the great advantage laid by his father and brother was buried by him, and when he was in power, he actually made the noble township prince Cao Chao have a reputation, and finally was forced to bear the name of killing the king.

As a result, the government and the opposition were indignant, and rebelled everywhere, thus wasting national strength, otherwise they would not have been defeated by Yang Yi after several consecutive victories, and there was no spare strength to fight back for a while.

That is, the strength of the Han State is also insufficient, otherwise under the successive defeats of this battle, Cao Wei Jiangshan may lose most of it, like now, only Liangzhou and the Western Regions have been lost, as well as the three eastern counties and Nanxiang County, which seems to be nothing to the Wei Dynasty, which dominates two-thirds of the world.

However, if you dig into it carefully, you will know how bad Cao Wei's damage is.

The inner hearts fluctuate, and they are even more terrible than the external enemy.

Hanzhong County, at this time, was in the study, with a chessboard full of black and white chess pieces.

Yang Yi doesn't like to play chess, it's just that in this era, there are not many ways to entertain and pastime, and he can't always place his affection in the boudoir, Yang Yi doesn't want the reputation of the martial queen.

and the courtiers, you also have to contact feelings, you can't have fun together, so you can only play chess.

Although he has lost his strength, Yang Yi's memory is still there, and his chess skills are not beyond the reach of mortals, of course, born as a human being, there is an upper limit to this skill, and in this extraordinary world, civil officials have spiritual talents, and their skills are not too bad.

Yang Yi's chess is peaceful and Zhengda, with a dignified and upright teacher, laying a net of heaven and earth, setting up an ambush on ten sides in an invisible place, and after accumulating momentum, he will kill in one fell swoop.

At this time, outside the window, the oblique wind and drizzle, dripping, in the room, several people chatted quietly, and the fragrance of tea overflowed, and the military affairs were completed unintentionally.

At this moment, a brocade came forward and said: "Jiaozhou Tao sent an envoy to ask to see!" ”

“？” Yang Yi was a little surprised, Yang Yi still paid attention to the dynamics of the world.

Although the whole Han Kingdom was immersed in production and temporarily contracted externally, it was training troops from top to bottom, but it did not make the people forget that the war was just around the corner.

Wei and Wu, Yang Yi sent brocade clothes as a room, just to listen to some well-known things, she thought that someone from Wei should come to see her first, how could it be Wu now?

Tao Yang Yi is aware, since the Shi family was destroyed by King Wu of the Great Wei, this Jiaozhou located in the southwest has been in rebellion, Tao was originally the in-law of the Shi family, but when the Shi family was thrown under the Sun family, the Tao family was hidden, just as an ordinary wealthy family inheritance.

Now, the Tao family has gradually accepted and digested the remnants of the Shi family, the position of Cangwu Taishou was controlled by the Tao family, and the position of Jiaozhou Assassin was gradually held by the Tao family.

The Tao family should accept the lessons of the Shi family back then, and will not change their allegiance so easily, as the inheritance of the county family, any decision should be conservative.

After all, in this world, no one knows who will be the master in the next moment.

Just like the period when the Three Kingdoms were not established at the end of the Middle Han Dynasty, there were only two "pure lands" in the world at that time, that is, Shixie's Jiaozhou and Gongsundu's Liaodong; Although it is located in a remote area and the environment is not very good, compared with the "big states" fighting each other, the stability of Jiaozhou and Liaodong exceeded that of other states in the world at that time.

And Jiaozhou, which should have waited and waited until the world was decided, made a choice, but in the fifteenth year of Jian'an, Shixie suddenly chose Soochow.

The Shi family is also a county family, Shi Xie's father Shi Ci once served as the Ninan Taishou, Shi Xie grew up in a privileged educational environment, he once followed Liu Tao to learn "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", was raised as filial piety.

Of course, in such an educational environment, Shixie is not so loyal.

Shi Xie resolutely chose to go to Jiaozhou to be the Taishou of Jiaozhi in the fourth year of Zhongping, because at that time, the control scope of the Han Dynasty had been greatly reduced due to internal and external problems.

Of course, this was what many families were doing in the world at that time, the Runan Yuan family and the Hongnong Yang family were aiming at the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the Liu family's relatives were aiming at Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yizhou, Youzhou and other major states.

After Shi Xie arrived, the then Jiaozhou Assassin Shi "happened" to pass away, and taking this opportunity, Shi Xie began to let his brothers go to each town, as if most of Jiaozhou had become Shi Xie's legal territory.

Who is Shi Xie? Because he is well versed in ancient books and culture, he has nothing to do with the "Spring and Autumn Period" to write annotations to this book, he is particularly modest, and the territory occupied by the scholars has gradually implemented this kind of weathering, and a modest atmosphere of literary scholars ripples in the upper echelons of Jiaozhou, at least the least, and is popular in most areas of Jiaozhou.

Under the influence of such a way of scholars and culture, Yuan Hui, Xu Jing, Liu Ba, Cheng Bing, Xue Zong and other people from the Central Plains came to live on Shixie's territory.

Yuan Hui once wrote a letter to Xun Yu expressing his many praises for Shixie.

If this continues, the scholar family may be a few generations later, or a male lord may emerge and establish a country on his own; It may also be that the shape of the world is determined, and the scholars are attached to the family and become the pillars of the new dynasty.

The auspicious time came to the fifteenth year of Jian'an, at this time Liu Biao of Jingzhou had already died of illness, and Liu Bei, the ancestor of the establishment of Zhonghan, was only gradually and completely separated from Sun Quan at this time, which can only be said to be a small achievement, and Sun Quan had greater ability and broader vision after long-term development.

happened to ask for help from himself through the Jiaozhou assassin history installed by Liu Biao before, and Sun Quan would never let go of this opportunity.

Although Shi Xie's traffic in Jiaozhou is blocked, he should have heard of the Sun family's operation, and Sun Wu's performance in the Battle of Chibi not long ago should have refreshed Shi Xie's perception of Sun Quan.

At this time, Wu Guo ordered Bu Qi to serve as the assassin of Jiaozhou.

Shi Xie understood that Sun Quan had finally made a move against Jiaozhou, and Shi Xie and the local people were accustomed to peace, so naturally they would not want war to break out because of politics.

Basically, as soon as Buqi came, Shixie was attached to Sun Quan; Of course, Shi Xie and Sun Quan had a lot of official documents on the Jiaozhou issue or in-depth discussions, and the two had already reached some agreements.

It happened that not long after Shixie was attached, Wu Ju came to make trouble again, and Buqi quickly pacified Wu Ju, which also strengthened the comprehensive cooperation between Shixie and the Sun family.

The Jiaozhou was transferred to the Sun family, and the Jiaozhou of the Shi family became the Jiaozhou of the Sun family.

Shi Xie was in Jian'an for fifteen years, and as soon as Sun Quan came, he was attached, except for the previous negotiation, that is, because Shi Xie wanted to watch the future development for the time being.

The many forces that occupied the south before wanted to intervene in the position of Jiaozhou Assassin, but none of the previous experiences had good results.

It's not arrogant or superstitious ghosts and gods, Jiaozhou Assassin Shi doesn't seem to have a slightly normal person since the Jian'an period, and the Taishou in various places also fight and kill each other because of the mountain high emperor.

Shi Xie was used to petty fights, but when he decided to join Soochow, there was a Wu Ju who wanted to secretly interfere and destroy that bit of stability and balance.

Wu Juben was sent by Liu Biao, whether he was ambitious or used in grand strategy, it was a very difficult problem for Shi Xie.

Of course, maybe Shi Xie is trying to use this incident to watch the fire from the other side, of course, what he hopes for is peace, and it is also a chance for Soochow to show.

In fact, Buqi was very neat, and Wu Ju was cut down with a click.

After Shixie joined Sun Quan, he immediately provided military assistance to Sun Wu, most famously orchestrating the Yonghong rebellion and Liu Bei's surrender to Wu and carrying out military activities.

At that time, Sun Wu was still busy with many other things, and Sun Wu must have needed more for the peaceful and military use of Jiaozhou for the time being.

After all, the discussion of the two divisions of the world advocated by Sun Wu is still fresh in people's minds, and Liu Bei has not yet obtained Yizhou in the fifteenth year of Jian'an, and Sun Wu, who is plagued by Shanyue, must not want to have problems in the rear when he takes Yizhou.

Shi Xie once insisted on paying tribute to the emperor, but this alone did not show his loyalty to the Han family.

Because before the emperor under Cao Cao's control rewarded Shi Xie with the corresponding etiquette, Shi Xie's behavior was already suspected of trespassing.

What is the purpose of the tribute?

At that time, Cao Cao could be said to be the most powerful or the most potential "prince", this kind of person could only be friends and not enemies for the time being, and both he and Cao Cao had advocated the revival of literature, according to Cao Cao's existing habits, as long as it was not the final surrender and deep hatred, Cao Cao would still tolerate the enemy.

In addition, Cao Cao launched the Battle of Chibi, and Shi Xie could just take a look at the form of the world.

If Sun Quan loses, his previous ambiguity can play a role, if Sun Quan wins, then the "supernatural hero" in Shi Xie's heart should be Sun Quan, and Sun Quan won the battle of Chibi.

this time.

Liu Biao had died of illness, and Liu Cong surrendered to Cao Cao; Liu Zhang has already eaten his old book; Liu Bei's Liu Qi Jian'an had just died in the fourteenth year, although there was part of Jingzhou's territory, but the development situation was still unclear, but Sun Quan had the background to cut the jaw-dropping exploits of the main battlefield.

The guy who can defeat Cao Cao must be a hard stubble, a worthy object.

If it is ten years later, Shi Xie may have to make another choice, of course, Shi Xie does not have this time, at that time, the world dispute, Shi Xie can no longer sway left and right, all parties are trying their best to enhance their own strength.

Although Shixie occupies a state, but the soldiers are not strong, the generals are weak, in this case, he can only choose people to take refuge, but his vision is not good, so he chose Sun Quan.

Of course, during the reign of Shixie, the prestige was too high, and the Sun family was afraid of chaos, so he did not start, and then Jiaozhou was basically in a semi-independent state, and of course the Sun family also secretly devoured a lot of power

Ten years later, Yan Han actually had a tendency to revivenation, but it was just like a flash in the pan, and it was broken by Sun Wu's betrayal of the alliance, during which the Shi family must have speculated again; Two years later, Shi Xie died, and Yan Han was in a precarious state at that time, so Sun Wu attacked the Shi family and blatantly wiped out the Shi family.

At that time, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Yan and Han dynasties, quickly pacified the rebellion in Nanzhong, and did not let Sun Wu have an opportunity to take advantage of it.

After turning these past events in his heart, Yang Yi gradually understood the thoughts of the Tao family, which was nothing more than a copy of the Shi family back then.

I wanted to think so, but immediately said, "Biography! ”

A rain, let the autumn come in advance, walking in the mansion, the road is paved with bluestone slabs, after wetting, it gives people a smooth feeling, dare not walk in a hurry; The flowers on the side of the road are blooming, and the slightly cool, moist air is inhaled into the lungs, and the heart is refreshed.

Although Yang Yi did not advocate large-scale construction at this time, he also ordered a ban on luxury consumption, and the palace should be saved, and the female officials in the palace even had to weave cloth by themselves.

However, in this line, there are also offerings and female officials who are gradually decorated, and bluestone slabs are quietly replaced on the road.

In the rain, there was a different scene, but at this time, Tao Huang was not interested and walked in a hurry.

It's just a drizzle of rain, sweeping over the wall on the side, but the wall is full of impenetrable evergreen vine leaves.

The corridor is left and right, it is open and open, from time to time I see the brocade guards standing with their hands down, the rules in the palace are strict, I saw that the guards did not squint with swords, stood straight, and there was no sound all the way, and even the sound of coughing phlegm was never heard.

The guards leading the way in front led, only listening to the sound of boots under their feet, stepping on the ground silently, this majesty, but it is not comparable to Wu Guo, after all, the Yan Han Dynasty has lasted for more than 400 years, and the heritage is not comparable to the Sun family, that is, the Wei Dynasty also occupied the Central Plains, and got the inheritance of the Zhong Han, so it has this majesty.

Although Tao Huang was full of worries, he couldn't help but gradually calm down in the face of this majesty.

When he arrived at a courtyard and entered, the guard who led him said at this time: "Master Tao, you wait here, I will go and tell Your Majesty." ”

Tao Huang had to wait, and after a while, the guards came out: "Your Majesty summons!" ”

To the inside, it is a simple study, of course, in detail, this study is not simple, there is a large glazed window, if in the past, only this glass window is worth a fortune, however, in the past two years, the craftsmen of the three kingdoms have made a big breakthrough.

Glass, paper, pen, ink, candles, etc., but the three kingdoms have their own geniuses, and if you study them carefully, the craftsmen of the Han Kingdom are more sophisticated, the paper is better, the glass is better, and the industry is more comprehensive.

At this time, Yang Yi was calmly playing chess.

Tao Huang just glanced at it carefully, and felt that the person in front of him was the master, his face seemed to have a layer of glossy light, his bearing was graceful, and he was refreshed, so he just glanced at himself, nodded slightly and turned to the chessboard.

At this time, he continued to play chess leisurely.

The person on the opposite side was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, wearing a blue wide-sleeved robe, and his demeanor was calm and steady, but he ignored his arrival and was contemplating it.

At this time, Tao Huang naturally knew what he was here for, so he fell directly to the ground, kowtowed again and again, and cried: "Please save my father, please save my father!" ”

Hearing this, Yang Yi couldn't help but pause, and the chess pieces he lifted stopped slightly in mid-air, then put them back in the chess bowl, and said, "This chess piece will end here!" ”

turned around, and ordered someone to help Tao Huang up, but Tao Huang refused, kneeling on the ground: "Please Your Majesty save my father, my Tao clan is willing to sacrifice Cangwu County!" ”

Yang Yi couldn't help frowning, what is Cangwu County, Jiaozhou is all right, but it is not as good as Xiangyang or Guanzhong County, at this time, he was slightly unhappy in his heart, but he still calmed down and said: "Qing doesn't have to be like this, can you tell me the inside story?" ”
