Because the Zhang River had not yet changed its route during the Han Dynasty, Yecheng was several miles south of the Zhang River.

The farmlands along the twelve ditches opened by the west gate of the city are continuous and are like the sea. The capital of Wei County is located in it, and it is rectangular. There is a main road in the city connecting the east and west gates, dividing the whole city into two parts.

In the north of the city are the government offices, county governments, granaries, arsenals, stables, etc. In the south of the city are the lifangs, and the scattered houses are tightly adjacent to each other. Outside the east gate is a market, and the station for welcome guests is also located here. The person who manages the small post is Ma Yuan's fellow Guanzhong, who was designated as the "General of the Assistant Han", Yan Chun, who was designated as the "General of the Assistant Han", also recruited heroes from all over the world.

On August 11, a group of merchants arrived here from the south. The leader was dressed in white clothes. After arriving at the post station, he asked to meet the county chief Li Yan.

Yan Chun was very unhappy: "Who are you? Mr. Li is busy with county affairs, so how can anyone see him?"

The young man in white spoke authentic Dongjun saying: "I don't hide it from you. We are dressing up in disguise. At this moment, I am the nephew of the Prince of the Dayin of Zhiting. I am the order of the uncle of the clan. I have something to be seen by Mr. Li."

Yan Chun was stunned: "What are the nephews of Dayin from the neighboring county coming here to do?"

"Life and death are at stake, involving the lives of countless people..." The fifth reunion made people open the carriage and reveal the things inside, like the scepter of the imperial envoy!

Yan Chun knew this thing because he often saw the five powers who had passed by in the past held him, and was shocked: "How dare you ask what you call me?"

The fifth Lun bowed: "Wang Lun!"

...

The New Dynasty envoys' scepter was the same as the Han system, mainly bamboo, with a handle of eight feet long, and a yak tail with three layers of skeleton (mào), and yellow ears were added.

There was also the imperial edict issued by Wang Mang to Wang Hong, the great imperial court, asking him to send troops to behead Li Yan! The emperor covered his head with a seal. Li Yan looked at it several times, but it was absolutely impossible.

As for another edict to appoint the fifth reunion of the Guanglu Dafu as Wei Cheng's fake Yin, of course, he would not be so stupid as to bring it with him.

It is accurate. Li Yan's intention to rebel against the new Han Dynasty was long known to the court. The court ordered local strife to attack, with the army of Jizhou governors in the north, and the soldiers of Zhiting County in the south. The disaster of Wei Cheng's destruction was right in front of us!

This made Li Yan, who had already made up his mind, lose his mind for a moment and accidentally dropped the imperial edict without realizing it.

Wu Lun didn't have the chance to go up to help him pick it up, because Li Yan's confidants saw that he was very strict and were not allowed to carry any sharp objects when they entered, and even pulled out the hairpin on their heads.

Especially the guy named Ma Yuan, he was not able to get close to Li Yan because he had just joined. However, he relied on the power of others and tried to deal with the fifth reunion when he was searching!

Is it amazing to have a handsome appearance? Is it amazing to have a beautiful daughter?

When the two of them were close, they exchanged their eyes a lot. The fifth rein glared at Ma Yuan, and Ma Yuan also smiled and returned with a grim smile.

After a while, Li Yan raised his head and said, "Wang Lun, since the Great Yin of Zhiting is a royal family member, he has received the emperor's edict and can only be ordered to go as ordered. Why should he put the envoy under house arrest and send you to inform me?"

The fifth reunion sighed: "Dare you ask Mr. Li, who is the emperor treating the most harshest?"

Li Yan did not think: "The strictest thing to the Wang family."

"That's right, it's our royal family!" Di Lun smiled bitterly: "The emperor's four sons died and were killed four months ago. The prince's brother Ping'a's Marquis was also killed. The prince originally made great contributions to the emperor, but he only made him a marquis and sent him to Zhiting as a magistrate. He worked for more than ten years."

"Whenever there is news of Wang's death in the court, my uncle will cry, panic, and I don't know when they will follow their footsteps. I always keep poison, ready to die when something is wrong to protect my decent face!"

Speaking of this, thinking that Wang Hong was so scared that he took poison and had to swallow feces and induce vomiting, the fifth reunion actually shed tears. Every word of this is true, and he didn't say anything nonsense.

"It's not to be hiding from Mr. Li. Although his uncle was a royal family, he never recognized the emperor's act of usurping the Han Dynasty. Mr. Li sent people to Dongjun to spread prophecies and divination. My uncle saw it but did not expose it. Instead, he hoped that Mr. Li would respond one day. He was able to respond. Unexpectedly, he was noticed by the hawks in the court and sent an envoy to let Zhiting and Wei Cheng's neighbors kill each other."

The fifth reunion said with grip on his teeth: "The emperor is just pretending to be Guo to attack Yu, and his lips are gone and his teeth are cold. If Mr. Li is destroyed today, will it be the turn of Zhiting tomorrow?"

"So my uncle put the envoy under house arrest, stole his scepter, and took his edict, asking me to send him here immediately, informing Mr. Li that he was urgent and wanted to secretly form an alliance with Mr. Li."

"The army of Zhiting has arrived in Liyang County, Baimajin, but it is just a fake attack. I hope Mr. Li will immediately raise troops to block the soldiers of Jizhou's governors who are heading south. Zhiting is willing to be the one who is shoulder to shoulder. At that time, the inside and outside will cooperate and attack the governors of Jizhou together."

Li Yan fell into deep thoughts, and after someone took this "Wang Lun" down, he learned that the Zhiting army had already marched to Neihuang County but stopped.

Li Yan likes to make plans and then execute them step by step. Now that he is completely disrupted, he has no idea and only comes to the king to ask him crying, "Sir, what can you do about it?"

Wang Kuang found out the words about Wang Hong in the prophecy that Wang Mang ministers were in favor of the situation. This person was indeed judged by them as the target they could fight for. But they had to take the initiative later. Unexpectedly, Wang Hong handed them the news to save his life.

At this point, the rebellion is exposed and must be taken immediately, otherwise you can only wait for death. The kindness from Zhiting has become a branch they must hold in the torrent, otherwise they will be attacked from both sides. Wang Kuang suggested that he should immediately send his confidants to go south with "Wang Lun" and indicate that Wei Chengjun is willing to form an alliance.

At this time, Li Yan suddenly thought of something and asked Wang Kuang, who had been observing behind the curtain, and said, "Sir, look at Wang Lun, what is his face?"

"not good."

Wang Kuang said confidently: "This person has a dark virtue pattern on his face, and his nature is hindering his master. Wang Hong is afraid that it will be a bad thing in the future!"

...

After all, there were 3,000 soldiers in Zhiting County, so the movement was quite serious. Passers-by were not blind, so the news of crossing the river could not be hidden.

They entered Neihuang, stopped according to the instructions of the fifth reunion, and waited for the fifth reunion to "capture the thief and capture the king". The head of the Zhiting also praised the fifth reunion for his courage.

But when the fifth reunion returned, he did not carry Li Yan's head, but only held a confidant sent by Li Dayin, and asked someone to tie up and interrogate him.

Everyone came over to ask what happened? The fifth reun only sighed and said, "I entered Ye City and looked at the thieves and the enemy's weaknesses and reality. I found that Li Yan was very careful. He seemed to be humble and was actually not careful to get close to him, so the plan changed."

It was also embarrassing. The fifth rein originally wanted to use the imperial edict to show Li Yan to see it. Although he had no weapons, Ma Yuan had it. The father-in-law and son-in-law attacked Li Yan together, and the Yecheng could be obtained.

But unexpectedly, Li Yan was a timid person. Not only was the fifth reunion blocked several steps away, Ma Yuan also found it difficult to get close to him, so he gave up his plan.

Once the plan failed, the fifth reunion immediately escaped and happily decided to leave the simple thing of arresting Li Yan to Ma Yuan.

"What about us?" Zhiting was stunned.

"Station in Neihuang, wait until Yecheng is in chaos, and the enemy does not move, I do not move."

Wu Lun believes that his entry into the city is not to alarm the enemy, but to disrupt the enemy's position.

If you change to an ordinary person, the planned wedding date is suddenly more than a year ahead of schedule. Can you still be calm and as usual? On the wedding day, you must be in a hurry, and even the two families quarreled and stopped getting married.

Rebellion is much more important than a red and white matter. If it fails, it will cause a loss of head. Li Yan and his team have not yet made many preparations, and they will do it in a hurry, and they will be even more in chaos.

During this process, the mud and sand in the water were all under the sand, and those hesitant would float up. Some people were in a state of silence, some people ran away overnight, and some even fought back to get rid of their crimes. Ma Yuan should use them. The fifth reunion believes that there is still a tacit understanding between the father-in-law and son-in-law.

Those who are determined to follow Li Yan will also sink to facilitate the fifth reunion to catch up in one go. The new Dayin, the new Dayin, needs to cultivate his own party members, and do not need the loyalty of his ex Dayin.

The fifth reunion also let Zhang Yu and others reveal the rebellion near Yecheng, which can aggravate the chaos in Yecheng. The powerful and powerful people are not in the same mind as the county magistrate.

Seeing that Zhiting was full of doubt, the fifth reunion was full of confidence.

"rest assured."

"I, I have a smart trick!"

...

As the fifth reunification said, his arrival completely disrupted Li Yan's small rebellion group.

Although many smart people think that this new fruit is about to be completed and are willing to find a new way out with Li Yan, no one can predict how long the court can last, so they put the date of the matter for the fourth year of the Dihuang, dragging it out and taking a look.

But it was only August of the second year, and it was too early. No matter how weak the imperial court controlled the prefectures and counties, it was also used to hit Wei Cheng with stones. Not to mention the rebellion of the new Han Dynasty, it was only planned among dozens of people with Li Yan and Wang Kuang as the core. Many Cao officials in the county, Haoyou and even the county soldiers and officials were unaware of it. It was not easy to convince them to participate one by one.

Even some of Li Yan’s former confidants were shaken. Yan Chun was one of them. He had the courage to rebel in the future, but it did not mean that he would rebel immediately!

So when Li Yan summoned his confidants to ask questions, Yan Chun and others hesitated. Instead, Ma Yuan, who was standing behind, stood up and said seriously: "People say that a soldier dies for his confidant. Mr. Li raised a soldier for a thousand days, just to use it at this time?"

He bowed to Li Yan: "Although Ma Yuan has not been in the palace of Li Gong's shogunate for a long time, he traveled all over the world all year round. He knew that this new house was like a decayed building of worms and could not last long. There was a green forest in the south to defeat the official army, and in the east, there were mountain Taiqing Xu and other thieves crossing states and counties. The king's army could not control it, the people were worried, and hating officials was like Jie and Zhou."

Ma Yuan did not lie. This was indeed the general trend of the world he had seen in recent years. There will only be more and more officials like Li Yan who deliberately oppose new borders in the future, and everyone is in a hurry to jump off the ship.

But there are some special considerations for which ship to board after jumping the ship. For example, the rebellion of Li Yan is too ridiculous and destined to be difficult to accomplish.

"Now that the matter has been exposed, the court is about to send troops to attack. As Chen She and Wu Guang said, if you die, you will die, and if you commit a major event, you will die. Is it okay to die in the country? Ma Yuan has just been pardoned for crimes, but he doesn't want to go into exile again and is not sure where he is. As long as Mr. Li gives orders, Ma Yuan is willing to summon the brave and brave men in the city to serve Mr. Li!"

Ma Yuan's words were very excited, and Li Yan was overjoyed. He didn't care that Ma Yuan had just joined for a while. He had deliberately refused to give him power and immediately became the "General of the Restoration of Han". After adding a big word, his seat was raised to the forefront. When the matter was held, Ma Yuan could not only summon the gentlemen in the city, but also lead a single army to fight.

Wang Kuang also came out at the right time, saying that he had already gone to Ximen Bao Temple to calculate, and it would be a good idea to raise troops in advance!

"On August 15th, the county military test was held in advance. On that day, it was imitating Zhai Yi, and all the chariots, cavalry and soldiers in the county were recruited to rebel and restore the Han Dynasty!"

However, no matter whether it is the heroic words of the warriors or the consolation of the people, they cannot relieve the uneasiness in everyone's hearts. At best, Li Yan's meeting can only make the guests' and confidants not scatter. They have their own plans behind their backs.

Li Yan urgently needed a banner that could call on ordinary people to join in the anti-new cause. After everyone retreated, Li Yan asked the king in a hurry.

"Sir, hasn't Cheng Emperor's Son Liu Ziyu arrived in Hebei? Why haven't he arrived in Yecheng yet?"

...

Li Yan was wrong. "Liu Ziyu" was not "having arrived in Hebei" at all, but he had never taken a step beyond Hebei in his life for more than 20 years!

Wang Lang was walking on the road leading to Weijun in Handan, surrounded by several foolish men and women who were fooled by him and rode on a black donkey. He seemed to be closed his eyes and was actually silently reciting what his father taught him in his heart.

"I am Liu Ziyu. This year, my mother is the palace maid of Emperor Xiaocheng of the Han Dynasty. After Emperor Xiaocheng was here, he fell down the palace and lay down. In a moment, yellow energy came from top to bottom and possessed her mother. After half a day, she was pregnant and got pregnant."

"The demon girl Zhao Houfeiyan, Hede wants to harm her mother, thanks to the loyal old official in the Yeting Court, who imitated the matter of the orphan of Zhao, and pretended to be the son of someone else who died on my behalf, so he got the whole thing."

"I was secretly sent out of the palace to raise and raised. At the age of twelve, I met Li Manqing, the doctor of the divine, and followed him to Shu. At the age of seventeen, the Han family was usurped by the rebel Wang Mang, and I arrived in Danyang. At the age of twenty, I was still in Chang'an. Because I learned the art of looking at the qi with my master, I found that there was a qi of the emperor in Hebei, so I went to Zhongshan, traveling to Yan and Zhao to wait for the time of the day."

The first word is just a word, and the rest depends entirely on editing. Wang Lang is actually Wang Kuang's son and has nothing to do with Emperor Cheng of Han.

This father and son are uneasy when they see the world, and the people are thinking about the Han Dynasty, and everyone knows that Liu Ziyu is all the rumors. He is so bold that he decided to play such a game that Wang Lang transforms himself into the Han emperor - because Wang Kuang looked at his son's face and felt that he had the appearance of an emperor.

He is indeed a cultural person. From Wang Lang's identity to his experience, this scam is much more sophisticated than Lu Fang, a native of the northwest, and even Li Yan believes it to be true.

Now that Wang Kuang has won Li Yan's trust, the plan to rebel against the new and restore the Han Dynasty is being implemented little by little, it is almost like Wang Lang appears in time and becomes Li Yan's banner. Just wait for the world to be more chaotic next year and take over Hebei in one breath!

But on August 15th, Wang Lang had to stop when he arrived at the shore of Zhangshui because a group of cavalry went south from Fuchang County (Guangping County) to Yecheng. The horses trampled on the road, and the knights were fully armed and scared Wang Lang.

The leader was Geng Chun, who went to Julu to invite the governor of Jizhou to send troops under the order of the fifth family!

Geng Chun was also anxious: "The Jizhou governor was too slow to transfer troops, so he could only take my family to go south first."

"I just hope I can help Boyu!"

...

ps: The last chapter of 2020. After this year, I used to read "The Biography of Wang Mang" and only felt it was a joke. Now I feel it is quite different when I read it again. So I hope to write a bit of "magic reality" in the first half of this book.

Next year... it's wrong. We will continue to update tomorrow and book a guaranteed monthly ticket.

The sun is about to set here, where are you?
