Chapter 1026 annexing Youzhou and sending the emperor

Next, Tian Chou met Tao Qian, Han Fu, Zhang Miao, Wei You, Cheng Xu and others, but they didn't see Brother Xianyu. Those two people were simply irrelevant to Miyun. This made the two brothers who were raised very uncomfortable, but the situation was stronger than others, so they could only curse behind their backs.

The one who opposes the most about Miyun's strong attack is naturally the Zhang brothers. You should know that they don't want to go either way given by Miyun. Relatively speaking, staying in Miyun will definitely be undermined. The bad records of the Zhang brothers make it difficult for them to gain Fang Zhiwen's trust again.

But if the emperor leaves Youzhou, he will most likely go to Lu Bu! Isn’t this sending a sheep into the tiger’s mouth?

However, does the Zhang Miao brother have a better choice? Fight a battle with Fang Zhiwen? This idea flashed in Zhang Miao's mind and was killed by Zhang Miao. This idea is simply seeking death!

Perhaps what Tian Chou said is worth considering. The emperor is no longer a child who doesn’t know anything. Moreover, the empress dowager has also understood a little bit of the secret of politics during this period. If you don’t say anything else, you can’t give power to a person. Their grandparents and grandchildren always understand the truth that they can’t give power to one person!

Even if they don’t understand, Wang Yun always understands it. Therefore, if the emperor really chooses to go south to surrender to Lu Bu, it will not only not send sheep into the tiger’s mouth, but also be the opportunity for the Zhang brothers to return to their hometown. In order to restrain the powerful and difficult Lu Bu, the emperor will inevitably believe in Zhang Miao more and more. This is an inevitable necessity.

After Zhang Miao had no way out of retreat, he calmed down. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Tian Chou's words were very reasonable. Not only would he not be persecuted by Lu Bu, but on the contrary, he could continue to fight with Lu Bu, because there would be a emperor standing behind him. This feeling was also good. Even if he could not fight Lu Bu, he would at least disgust him. Even if this was enough to show his anger that he was driven away.

Wang Yun had no choice, and he would not let the emperor become a spiritual symbol. Because this really made him unable to accept it, Zhang Miao understood that the benefits of going south were far greater than staying in Youzhou as a rich man.

Tao Qian had nothing to say. Tao Qian's two sons went to Zhengxiang Academy to teach. Tao Qian himself planned to do things for the emperor one day. He was old and had already seen it.

Han Fu is new to him and is still in shock. As long as he is not given to Yuan Shao's sacrifice flag, everything is fine. Lu Bu and Han Fu are not very bad. He can still get a position in the court with the emperor. In Miyun, he may only be a wealthy idle person. After thinking about it, Han Fu thought it would be better to follow the emperor.

Wei You chose to continue to follow the emperor because he was a very traditional person. Like Wang Yun, it was difficult to accept Miyun's idea of ​​the emptiness of the monarchy. Sun Jin was the same. However, Sun Jin was even more afraid that he would be retaliated against by offending Fang Zhiwen before. As for Cheng Xu, Qi Zhou, Zhang Yi, and Zhang Zan, they were all willing to stay in Youzhou and continue to serve the people of Youzhou. These people still had a deep relationship with Liu Yu, and they also had the idea of ​​staying in Youzhou to protect Liu He.

As for Liu He, Xun Yu was willing to give him a suitable position. Like Fang Zhiwen, Xun Yu believed that there was no incompetent person, only an incompetent boss.

Tian Chou gave Wang Yun and Zhang Miao a day, and the next day he formally invited the emperor to see him, and the emperor immediately summoned Tian Chou.

It was not the first time Tian Chou saw the emperor. Compared with the last time, the emperor seemed to have grown a lot. His little face was solemn, which was quite heavy as he shouldn't have at his age. However, he couldn't hide anything in his eyes. His eyes looked at Tian Chou with anger and grievance.

"Tian Zitai, are you here to drive me away? Is Fang Zhiwen no longer a Han official?"

The emperor's voice was tender, but his voice and expression were still quite powerful. Especially on this occasion, the emperor who was lying on the upper seat was cold and cold. The ministers below watched silently, Tian Chou felt some pressure, but Tian Chou then smiled and threw this pressure behind his head.

"Your Majesty, my lord is a Han minister, and my humble minister is also a Han minister. This cannot be changed because we are all Han people."

"Since he is a Han minister, why don't he respect the emperor and do such unfaithful and unrighteous things?"

"Your Majesty, I am loyal to the country of the Han Dynasty, and the people of the Han Dynasty. I am here to suggest that Your Majesty establish a new system to adapt to the development of the times, keep pace with the times, and maintain the glory of the royal family forever. But Your Majesty cannot accept it. Whatever you say is disloyalty and unrighteous is a biased topic."

"But the emperor is a God's gift, the herders on behalf of heaven are the will of heaven, all the people of the world are my people, the great artifacts of the world are my land, and you are my subordinates. What's wrong with this? Why change it?"

"Your Majesty, all the saints of ancient times have been recommended, and they cannot be hereditary. When will the emperor become a private property of one family? Since the emperor is a herder of the Heavenly Heaven, it is naturally the choice of the people. Now the suggestion brought by the empress is to let the emperor return to the position he should have stood. As a representative and example of the people, what's wrong with it?"

The little emperor was speechless. After all, he was a child, so how could he argue that Tian Chou, who had been well-educated, could not help but turn his eyes to Wang Yun. Wang Yun sighed and shook his head slightly. It was not that Wang Yun was trying to reason with Tian Chou, but when you reason with him, he would talk to you about fists!

Moreover, Tian Chou brought out ancient sages, these sages praised by Confucianism, are really difficult to argue. It is really hard to defeat the truth that it is better to turn the world into a private property of a family and a family.

"Your Majesty, the dispute between words and verbal is useless. Now the General of the North is determined to do it. The so-called different ways are not to do things. Your Majesty can only accept or not accept it. It is useless to say anything else. Why waste your mouth and tongue with such disobedient people?"

Wang Yun's tone was stable, but his words were very rude and he directly put the rebellion on Fang Zhiwen. You should know that this is a court meeting. If the emperor does not object to this statement, it would be equivalent to a characterization of Fang Zhiwen!

However, Fang Zhiwen's army is outside the city. If Fang Zhiwen annoys, it will not be impossible for Fang Zhiwen to force the emperor to rectify it. Everyone will be unlucky at that time.

Zhang Miao immediately left the choir and said, "Master Wang is careful. General Zhengbei has not made any rebellious moves and still respects Your Majesty as the emperor. How can Lord Wang draw a conclusion without authorization?"

Wang Yun glanced at Zhang Miao disdainfully: "Who is Fang Zhiwen rebellious?"

Wang Yun's voice was very loud, and the court was quiet for a moment. Tian Chou suddenly chuckled and slowly spoke under the gaze of everyone: "If everyone in the world says that my lord is rebellious, that is rebellious. On the contrary, if everyone in the world says that Lord Wang is loyal and righteous on the surface and selfish in the bones, then Lord Wang is rebellious! Right and wrong, merits and demerits are discussed by the world. If one person is rebelling against one person and benefiting the world, I and my lord will do this rebellious without hesitation."

Tian Chou's words were not loud, but they were loud. The confidence and calmness contained in his tone actually made everyone feel a little ashamed, including Wang Yun, who felt a little dizzy, and right and wrong in the hearts of the people! Wang Yun didn't know what the people would say about everything he did, but the people of Miyun's heart-wrenching support and approval of the current life, the Miyun official, and Fang Zhiwen's heart-wrenching support and approval.

The herders of the Heavenly Heaven, the shepherds the human heart, but now the human heart is on the side of Fang Zhiwen. So who is the rebellious person?

"Forget it, there is no use in verbal disputes." The little emperor made a smooth move at the right time.

"Your Majesty, since that's the case, please ask the court to discuss the court's stay or leave."

"What do you think you should do?"

"I agree with Your Majesty's return to the Central Plains!"

"Sir"

Seeing that most important officials such as Zhang Miao and Tao Qian supported him, the little emperor had both relief, grievances and regrets on his face. At least there were still many ministers willing to follow him. Even if the court was still there, he would still be the emperor.

"Although I am willing to follow Your Majesty to serve you, I am all from Youzhou and have not yet been able to repay the kindness of the elders of Youzhou. I dare not let down my expectations. Please allow you to stay in Youzhou and serve Your Majesty."

Cheng Xu and others also made a speech. The emperor shook his head gently, his eyes full of reluctance and regret.

Wang Yun glanced at the ministers and sighed in his heart: "Since that's the case, the court decided not to go south to the Central Plains. Please prepare for the emperor's transfer."

The emperor glanced helplessly at the people at the steps with different expressions, waved his hands and said, "Retreat!"

In July of the fifth year of Yonghan, the emperor decided to move to the Central Plains. After active preparations, Fang Zhiwen mobilized a large number of fleets and escort fleets, carrying ministers and soldiers willing to go south with the emperor, set off from Qinghekou Port, passed the Yellow River route, and prepared to go to Lu Bu's territory.

Lu Bu was very happy when he received the emperor's edict, but he was inevitably a little nervous. He didn't know if he could control or adapt to this monster-like court.

Pang Yuan admired Fang Zhiwen's ability to get rid of his burden. Naturally, he didn't know the two conditions that Fang Zhiwen had given to the emperor, but Fang Zhiwen was indeed very capable of driving the emperor away openly.

The emperor not only could not denounce Fang Zhiwen, because of the existence of the Chang'an court, the emperor of Ji County also quickly appointed Fang Zhiwen as the governor of Youzhou, trying to bring Fang Zhiwen to his side. From this point of view, the political wisdom of the Ji County court was still good, but this news was not good news for Pang Yuan and Lu Bu.

The more capable people around the little emperor, the greater the constraints on Lu Bu and the more conflicts that may arise in the future. However, Lu Bu has no reason to refuse the emperor's resignation, and Lu Bu is now trying to control the Central Plains, so the arrival of the emperor will undoubtedly have more benefits than harm.
