Three Kingdoms

Although many people will inevitably murmur in their hearts after meeting Yuan Shu, Zhuzi or Bi Qiniang, but it is undeniable that sometimes, although the starting line is the same, some people are racing on their own two legs. Yuan Shu, on the other hand, came on horseback.

Don't lose at the starting line, it's been a joke from the beginning.

Just like the ugly duckling, it can eventually turn into a swan. It is not because it is kind-hearted or helpful to others that it can become a swan, but because it is originally a white swan.

Of course, Yuan Shu's demeanor and demeanor were indeed first-class. This kind of scorn and self-confidence that he inadvertently showed when dealing with others could only be vividly reflected in the legitimate son of the Yuan family, the crown prince in the world.

Compared with the time in Luoyang, Yuan Shu's current situation is like the difference between a sharpened sword and an uncut one. The edge is fully revealed, shining with a stunning brilliance, attracting the attention of many people.

"Zichong, starting from today, anyone who has not arrived in three days will not be seen. They do not understand the general trend of the world, and they hope to be alone in the world. Their words and deeds are like childishness. Such incompetent people are not qualified to stand in the world. It's useless to see it." Yuan Shuping ordered Yang Hong with a bowl of sobering soup, although he was drunk, but his mind was still very clear.

Yang Hong bowed his head and responded.

Yuan Shu drank the sobering soup in one gulp, and then asked with three parts of pride, three parts of pride, three parts of arrogance and one part of expectation: "How is that man... doing?"

That person refers to Yuan Shao.

I looked down upon Yuan Shao's move to set up a system of his own, and actually sealed some kind of cavalry general, and then forced Wang Kuang, the governor of Hanoi, to accuse him and frame a big family to raise military expenses.

It is believed that these measures taken by Yuan Shao simply ruined the reputation of the Yuan family.

The prefectures in the Han Dynasty were basically demarcating territories and enclosing them. If there were some means, such as recruiting civilians for labor and sending temporary taxes, it would be a piece of cake.

Set up checkpoints to collect municipal and commercial taxes, close mountains to collect woodcutting taxes, block rivers and marshes to collect fishery taxes, it is simply a saying that the wealth of people is the same as the land. Of course, like Wang Kuang, "encouraging" people to report and then take advantage of large households is also a way, but most people still consider their dignity and find a balance between greed and public anger.

A person like Yuan Shu, who is based in the Nanyang base camp despite his status as the legitimate son of the Yuan family, simply doesn't bother to do such a thing that is extremely stinky and despicable in his concept.

The Yuan family should be as prudent as the Yuan family, so how can they pursue profit?

Only that person could ruin the reputation of the Yuan family like this...

I, Yuan Shu, have never had to lower my body and fold my joints?

Why have I, Yuan Shu, ever had to levy and extort money?

Why have I, Yuan Shu, ever had to compromise?

At the beginning, many local tycoons were still waiting and watching, but now the situation has gradually changed, and many people have started to join the team. As the legitimate son of the Yuan family, Yuan Shu has an innate advantage, and the gifts sent to him by local nobles are also welcome. Gradually, the amount of money and food allocated to Yuan Shu's army gradually increased, not to mention the so-called donations given in various names to support righteous actions.

Many local tycoons, under such circumstances, would send money, food, silk, and various other materials to Yuan Shu with the thought of betting as much as they could without falling behind others. Up to now, Yuan Shu had no feeling at all about the donation of millions of dollars, and even the donation of tens of millions was just for an audience and a banquet.

As the long history of Yuan Shu's generals, although Yang Hong's position is still the same as before, there have been fundamental changes. A sudden increase of more than one billion in assets is now in his hands. Even the tone of his voice is a little different. , becoming more and more official.

Yang Hong cupped his hands and said slowly: "Yesterday I just received a letter saying that Yuan Cheqiqian has received the seal of Han Jizhou..."

Yuan Shu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, then shook his head and sighed again: "Why is this! Why is this! You have no tolerance for others, and you actually do such a short-sighted thing..."

Han Fu can also be regarded as one of the disciples and former officials of the Yuan family. Although he was appointed as the state pastor when Dong Zhuo took office, in Yuan Shu's eyes, there was no need to do such a thing.

"There are no mistakes in words or deeds, and there are no mistakes in military and political affairs. He acted rashly and exposed his greed, making the world laugh at him!" Yuan Shu said with emotion.

Yuan Shu saw it very accurately. After this incident, there were indeed many fewer people who took the initiative to defect to Yuan Shao. However, even so, Jizhou, as a large state with a very high population density, had a very good background and worked as officials in counties and counties. There are so many coins, so Yuan Shao doesn't think there is any problem in operation.

However, everything depends on others, but it may not be accurate when looking at oneself. Yuan Shu does not think that his superior attitude is the reason why many scholars turn around and leave. He just thinks that these people are short-sighted...

"Send some congratulatory gifts to that person, just say..." Yuan Shu twirled his beard and said, "Just show off your grand plans." I still show my magnanimity to others. If this guy is not extremely stupid, You should know what you mean.

Yang Hong nodded in agreement.

Yuan Shu suddenly waved his hand and drove his servants away, and then whispered: "How is Qingzhou?"

Yang Hong leaned forward and said in a low voice: "We have made an appointment with Guan Hai. When the army rations are delivered, we will raise our troops and march into Yan."

"Good." Yuan Shu said, and then asked, "How about Black Mountain?"

"Feiyan has said that when our troops arrive, we will attack them with force." Yang Hong said.

"Jingnan..." Yuan Shu's eyes were dark.

Yang Hong nodded and said, "It's a lot of good intentions, but I haven't decided yet."

Yuan Shu snorted disdainfully, raised an eyebrow slightly, and said: "If you don't decide today, you will regret it in the past. Short-sighted people don't need to pay any more attention to it. The most urgent thing now is to kill four cows..."

Yang Hong cupped his hands and said: "Ming Gong's curtain is thousands of miles away, and Hong deeply respects him. I hope that he will never turn around until he is dead!"

Yuan Shu nodded and smiled, waved his hand and said a few words of encouragement.

Seeing that Yuan Shu looked a little tired, Yang Hong resigned wisely.

Yuan Shu didn't hold back, he nodded, and after Yang Hong left, he called for his attendants, staggering a little and walked to the back hall. As he walked, he sang: "The sun is setting, the sheep and cattle are coming down, the gentleman is here." Servant, how can you not think about it! Haha, haha..."

At this time, among the princes in the world, there were four surnames named Liu, and they were located in four directions.

Liu Yu was in charge of Youzhou and in the north.

Liu Biao paid homage to Jingzhou and took command in the south.

Liu Yan led Yizhou Mu and sat in the west.

Liu Dai holds the seal of Yanzhou and sits in the east.

Most of the other Liu clans have become insignificant. For example, Jibei Kingdom is just a large county under Yanzhou. Fundamentally, it cannot be compared with these four big Liu clans...

And if you want to replace the Liu family and become the master of the world, these four great princes who have real power and command the army of a state cannot be bypassed no matter what...

In the second year of Chuping, Qingzhou Huangjin was defeated by the Bohai Sea and entered Yanzhou. There were many intrusions.

At that time, Shao sent Zhang Qi, the former governor of Lelang, and others to discuss the title of Yu Zun. Yu Gu refused. When he asked Yu to take charge of the affairs of the minister, he refused to listen again, so Shao and others stopped.

Then Shao made an appointment with Zan through a letter...

Guo Jia was wandering and met Xun Yu walking on the road. He stood quietly and watched Xun Yu coming.

He didn't say hello because he knew that people in the Yang Realm could not see the Yin Realm.

When Xun Yu passed by him, he suddenly stopped and said, "I'm doing my best to say goodbye. I'm fine."

Guo Jia looked at him sadly: Wen Ruo is fine...
