Chapter 488 Time flies
Time flies, and a year and a half passed quickly, and it has already reached February 195.
This year, the entire Han Dynasty was very peaceful, and now it was the season for spring plowing. Therefore, all the people of the Han Dynasty were busy with spring plowing, and all the princes attached great importance to spring plowing, so they seemed very peaceful at this moment.
Of course, there is a bigger reason for this short calm, which is naturally because of Liu Yao. Liu Yao won most of the Han Dynasty in one fell swoop, and welcomed Emperor Xian of Han back to Ji County. When the officials from Luoyang and Chang'an received this news, they rushed to Ji County one after another. For a time, Liu Yao's power could be said to have reached a state of great strength.
All the princes were afraid, afraid that Liu Yao would attack at this time, so they did not dare to start a war again, and they were all dedicated to protecting themselves and preserving their strength.
Of course it is obvious that they were thinking too much. Liu Yao had gone through such a big battle before. No matter how strong Liu Yao was, he was a little damaged. After a year and a half of cultivation, he had not completely recovered, let alone attacking the Central Plains and the South.
As for the interior of Youzhou, it was quite peaceful. Although Liu Yao took all the officials back to Jixian and re-handled the court, he did not encounter the troubles of Cao Cao in history. The little emperor Liu Xie was very calm and did not try every means to regain his power at any time. The ministers were also very calm and did not try every means to help Liu Xie regain his power.
As for the reason, it is very simple. Now the real officials of this Han Dynasty who have higher official positions and some status are only Wang Yun, Xun Shuang, Yang Biao, Fu Wan, Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and others.
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun are military generals, but they have nothing to do with them. The relationship with Liu Yao is not bad. Liu Yao did not give them a chance to lead the troops again, but instead let them live their lives in the court.
As for Wang Yun, Xun Shuang, Yang Biao, Fu Wan and the other four in the court, they could still say a few words. If they wanted to deal with Liu Yao, even if Liu Yao was not afraid, then there would be constant trouble.
However, Liu Yao only did one thing, which was to secretly show a secret edict left to him by the late Emperor Ling of Han to several of them according to what Guo Jia said.
Everyone was shocked immediately. They never thought that such a thing would happen. How could they not recognize Emperor Ling of Han and the handwriting of the imperial edict?
Liu Yao and Emperor Ling of Han joined forces to act in such a big drama. They never thought that Liu Yao had conspired with the late emperor to carry forward the entire Han Dynasty more than ten years ago, which also made them admire Liu Yao even more.
This is not all that Liu Yao directly took out the real imperial seal, and lied that he was handed over to him by Emperor Ling of Han.
When the ministers saw the imperial seal, their eyes were protruding, and they all burst into tears. You know, they thought that the imperial seal had been lost in the war, and they all blamed themselves for it. But now the imperial seal appeared in Liu Yao's hands, how could they not be excited? If they said that they had three questions about the secret edict of the late emperor. But after seeing the imperial seal, no doubts were left. No one would doubt them anymore.
With the secret edict of the late emperor, plus the jade seal of the kingdom and the Chixiao Sword, these old ministers had nothing to say. They were originally the old ministers who were the most loyal to the Han Dynasty. Now that they knew that Liu Yao was the real heir, they naturally would not go against Liu Yao. On the contrary, they all began to help Liu Yao in turn. With the help of them, the rest of the officials were naturally the ones they followed. This also made it possible for him to be the one-man rule of Liu Yao in the court, and no one dared to object.
Of course, after they learned about this, Liu Yao also ordered them to keep the secret strictly. Each of them made the most vicious oath to ensure that it would not be revealed, including their families.
Of course, among these six people, there was one person named Liu Yao who did not show him this secret edict, so it was Xun Shuang. As for the reason, it was because Liu Yao was worried. You should know that Xun Yu and Xun You were still under Cao Cao's command at this moment. Liu Yao didn't dare to bet whether Xun Shuang would tell them about this matter, so he had to hide it from him.
However, if you lack Xun Shuang, there is no big problem. A small Xun Shuang cannot make any big waves, especially in Ji County, he is the only one Xun family.
The ministers have done it, and it will be easier for the little emperor Liu Xie to deal with it. Liu Xie is originally a cowardly person, and he is still young and doesn't care too much about power or other things.
In history, he had always tried every means to regain power from Cao Cao, which was completely instigated by Dong Chengfuwan and a so-called loyal old ministers in the Han Dynasty.
Now that Dong Cheng is dead, Fu Wan also knows the situation, and the other ministers also obey Fu Wan and Wang Yun, etc., so they naturally will no longer brainwash Liu Xie.
In addition, there is also the existence of Empress Dowager Dong. He knew nothing less about the Han Dynasty than Liu Yao. Therefore, he naturally knew who the throne should be.
And Liu Xie's dependence on Empress Dowager Dong was beyond Liu Yao's imagination. If it weren't for his status as an emperor at this moment, he would have wanted to live in the deserted palace, so he would have just wanted to move to the General's Mansion to live with Empress Dowager Dong.
Of course, his actions were directly stopped by Liu Yao and many ministers. Although Liu Xie was unwilling to accept this, he could only agree helplessly. However, he still ran to Liu Yao's general's mansion every few days, because only here could he not feel lonely and felt a kind of warmth of home. Many ministers could only turn a blind eye to this.
It is precisely because of this that Liu Xie was extremely obedient to Empress Dowager Dong. With the existence and teachings of Empress Dowager Dong, Liu Xie naturally would not have any idea of fighting for power with Liu Yao. Moreover, Liu Yao's words were basically obedient and had never opposed them. Instead, it saved Liu Yao a lot of effort.
At this moment, except for Liu Yao, who owns the seven major prefectures of You and Liang, Yong, Ji and Qingsi. The remaining princes were Cao Cao from Yanzhou, Lu Bu from Yuzhou, Yuan Shu from Yangzhou, Tao Shang from Xuzhou, Liu Biao from Jingzhou and Liu Zhang from Yizhou. Of course, Zhang Lu from Hanzhong can be regarded as one. Now many princes have been vaguely united. After all, Liu Yao is really too terrifying now. If they don’t join forces, they will probably be wiped out one by one by one by one by one.
As for Liu Yan, he did not die early like Tao Qian, but he did not escape his fate. Just last year, he died at home. Therefore, the governor of Yizhou has become Liu Zhang. Zhang Lu also took this opportunity to occupy Hanzhong with his troops. He was nominally a subordinate of Liu Zhang, but in fact, he no longer obeyed Liu Zhang's orders and became a prince of the world.
But on this day, the calm that had been maintained for a year and a half was broken by this.
On February 15, 195, at the hour of You, Ji County, in a magnificent palace. The imperial palace in Ji County cost Liu Yao a lot of money and a large amount of labor, and it was established within four months. As for the location selection, Liu Yao also took a lot of effort to expand the entire Ji County three points before he could make the palace down. The location is not far from the military camp, and the 10,000 imperial guards guarding the palace were also Liu Yao's confidant, and it was absolutely foolproof.
At this moment, outside the main hall, there were countless people wearing official uniforms standing here. In addition to Wang Yun, Xun Shuang and other old ministers, Liu Yao, Guo Jia, opera Zhicai, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, Liu Yao's confidant subordinates were also listed, so these were naturally the cultural relics waiting for the court.
One person ascended and the chickens were enlightened. Since Emperor Xian of Han had already taken back to Ji County, then Liu Yao and his confidants would naturally benefit.
Liu Yao was promoted to the next level and was no longer the General of the Cavalry, but the real General, who was commanding the world. Of course, his throne of King Ji still exists, and that was also unattainable. If you go further, it would be his position as Liu Xie.
As for Guo Jia and Zhao Yun and others, the benefits are naturally indispensable. They are all promoted and promoted, and it can be said that they have occupied most of the court.
At this moment, the civil and military officials were whispering in groups of three or three.
You know, it is now the hour of You, and the sun has already set. Today's morning court has already opened. But now the general is still in a hurry to ask the cultural relics officials. It is obvious that something big happened. Although Liu Yao is on the side now, as they are, he naturally dare not go up to ask. If he didn't see anything, even Wang Yun and the others asked, let alone them.
As for Liu Yao and his group, the military generals, especially Zhang Fei and others, they all looked angry, as if they had seen something unforgivable. However, the strategists, including Liu Yao, were actually happy, which was really strange.
