In the fourth year of Chuping, many major events happened!

The first thing is that Guo Si and Li Jue, who occupied Chang'an City, finally broke up. The two of them fought in Chang'an City with their swords and spears. It is said that the entire Chang'an is now in chaos, and even the so-called Changle Palace and Weiyang Hall have become places for war between the two sides.

Anyway, all the civil and military officials who were still in Chang'an are now in dire straits, including the young emperor Liu Xie, who are threatened by his life!

However, most princes can only verbally express condemnation, because so far, Hangu Pass is firmly in the hands of the Xiliang Legion, and even if the princes of Guandong want to rescue the Lord, they don’t have this condition.

Besides, all the princes probably want the little emperor to ascend to the upper hand as soon as possible. After all, if they kill the king, they have to take risks. But if Guo Si and Li Jue kill the little emperor with red eyes, they can kill the little emperor, then everyone can go to grab territory in the name of avenging the little emperor, right?

The second major event is that Tao Qian, the Muslim in Xuzhou, died!

As an old man during the reign of Emperor Heng of Han, Tao Qian was almost seventy years old. He could definitely be considered a long life in this era, so it was natural that he died.

There is only a rumor that someone seemed to have secretly harmed the Taozhou Mu, but the news was officially confirmed to be purely accusation.

Because Tao Qian's cause of death was diagnosed by many famous doctors as brain pumps, this disease is considered a common disease among the elderly and wealthy people. It is an absolute incurable disease and cannot be controlled by human resources.

Cerebral hemorrhage can definitely be considered an incurable disease in this era. Unless Hua Tuo happened to be by his side when Tao Qian was sick and then he was skulled and bleeding, otherwise no one would have thought of saving him back.

Xuzhou Mu is definitely an important figure in the current chaotic situation. Tao Qian's death immediately caused a major earthquake.

In terms of identity, the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers and the Little Emperor trapped in Chang'an are definitely much more valuable than Tao Qian. However, in terms of influence, even if the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers are tied together, they are probably not as important as Tao Qian.

Tao Qian managed Xuzhou in an orderly manner during his lifetime. Xuzhou was located in the six counties, with a total population of about four million, which was a little richer than Li Qingyuan's Qingzhou.

When Tao Qian was still alive, both Li Qingyuan, Cao Cao, or Yuan Shu were eyeing Xuzhou, but no one had a suitable reason to invade Xuzhou. In addition, Tao Qian's old man was not a good person, so everyone could only barely maintain superficial restraint.

Now Tao Qian is actually dead, which is definitely a great thing for everyone!

Li Qingyuan immediately decided to lead 150,000 troops to Xuzhou to mourn, and must personally bring incense sticks to Taozhou's hostess.

As for why we have to bring so many soldiers to burn incense?

As an insecure person, what’s wrong with bringing more guards when going out?

Cao Cao and Yuan Shu, who realized it later, were also anxious. Last time they saw Li Qingyuan playing the slogan of going to Beijing to serve the king, and then they followed and wiped out the weak forces around them. However, they didn't expect that the other party would actually play a new trick again this time!

When the two of them ordered their troops to go to Xuzhou to send Taozhou's majesty for the last journey, Li Qingyuan had already taken Donghai County without any bloodshed!

There is no way. Xuzhou was naturally a solid piece when Tao Qian was still alive, but Tao Qian died suddenly now without even a last word. In an instant, all of his subordinates could not sit still.

Zhao Yu, Zuo Rong, Xiao Jian, Zang Ba, Cao Bao and others all claimed that they should be the successor to Xuzhou Mu. The reason why everyone did not fight in the internal struggle was entirely because the current environment in Xuzhou was not safe, otherwise they would have fought long ago.

As for Tao Qian’s two sons?

Those two fools were not as good as Liu Biao's two useless sons, otherwise Tao Qian would not have even entrusted Xuzhou to Liu Bei, an outsider in history!

By the way, where did Liu Bei go?

Li Qingyuan sat in the prefect's mansion in Donghai County and thought with a little curiosity.

The reason why he was able to take Donghai County so fast without bloodshed is mainly because the head of Donghai County is very conscious of the current affairs!

Although the merchant species is very despicable, they can even sell their etiquette, integrity and shame and their own mother for the sake of their interests, it has to be said that merchants are also the most vicious group of people in the world.

Especially this guy standing in front of Li Qingyuan, he can be called the number one businessman in the Three Kingdoms period!

"Mi Zhu has met Lord Zhou Mu!"

Standing in the audience was a middle-aged man about thirty years old. He looked pretty and had a goatee beard and very tall. He was probably about two meters away.

"Zi Zhong is free from li, you have made great contributions to Donghai County this time, so you will be the one who serves as the prefect of Donghai!"

Li Qingyuan smiled and greeted, immediately causing Mi Zhu to kneel down and thank him excitedly.

Although the Mi family in Donghai can be regarded as the top rich man in the Three Kingdoms period and has a similar commercial status as that of two cows in later generations, their political status is actually not very good.

Even though 40% of the people in Donghai County rely on the Mi family's business to make a living, Mi Zhu also has the title of individual drivers around Tao Qian, but the identity of their businessman cannot be changed.

In the eyes of real nobles, merchants are a kind of creature that cannot be brought to the table, so even though Mi Zhu has achieved real wealth that is as good as a country, he still cannot cross the past in that last step.

So when Li Qingyuan's army was approaching, this guy made a big bet!

He sent someone to tie up the former prefect of Donghai Cao Hong, and then opened the gate of Donghai County to welcome the arrival of the Qingzhou army.

In fact, Mi Zhu just started doing all this to protect himself, because all the property of his Mi family is in Donghai County. If this place really becomes a place for the army to fight, then their hundreds of millions of assets will immediately turn into ruins in the midst of war.

So this most conscientious investor in the Three Kingdoms directly made up his mind and chose Li Qingyuan, a potential stock!

When Mi Zhu was originally surrendering, he was still a little nervous. He wondered if this Zhou Mu, who had emerged as a sudden person, would have any prejudice against him.

But now, Mi Zhu's loyalty has been directly reduced to 100 points.

The prefect of the East China Sea!

Even though his Mi family had almost become the uncrowned king of Donghai County, as the saying goes, the most difficult thing in anything is the first and last step. Without the luck of defiance, this last step would not be successful.

Thinking about how many benefits Mi Zhu gave him under Tao Qian, even civil and military officials in Xuzhou gave him a bunch of generous gifts, but the Mi family was still a businessman in Donghai.
