Chapter 281
King Liu Lin of Zhao sent an envoy to Yecheng, which was more like an ultimatum than to win over Geng Chun. Handan and Yecheng were less than a hundred miles apart, and the chariots could reach one day, and the war might start at any time.
As far as Geng Chun knows, with the news of the Fifth Reunion's opposition to Guanzhong and Kunyang, the already obsolete Hebei New Dynasty regime collapsed. The local snakes no longer hid behind them, but killed or imprisoned two thousand stones, and brought a group of marquises in the surname Liu to become masters, just like in the past two hundred years.
Among them, Liu Lin was the strongest, with three counties, Handan, Guangping and Julu, with a population of one million. He was regained his hometown and called the King of Zhao. He gathered powerful men and women of the same clan and gathered 30,000 soldiers in Handan, and stared at Wei.
Ma Yuan also had a plan with Geng Chun a few days ago. Should he seize Hanoi according to the plan of the Fifth Reunion, or directly fight with Handan? Geng Chun strongly advised Ma Yuan to choose the former.
"Mr. Ming said when he left that Geng Boshan was the only one who could protect Wei land. Wen Yuan believed it or not, I was better than the 30,000 army in Yecheng! I must be told that Liu Lin would not dare to invade the territory. Please feel free to go south and explore, and leave it to me for the success of the situation!"
Geng Chun certainly knew why he had to beg for nothing to marry him before leaving.
"He married the Ma family, and his intention was not to Ma's family, but to Ma Yuan!"
Similarly, the fifth reunion married a child for a pair of children, and of course he also fell in love with Geng Chun!
The fifth reunification knows the role of Geng Chun in charge of Yecheng, so Geng Boshan himself is naturally more clear about it.
"Geng's family is the largest surname in Hecheng County (north of Julu)."
"I have a good relationship with Pi Tong, the great Yin of Hecheng County, and the relationship between Hecheng and Hecheng depends on my family."
"And Liu Yang, the King of Zhending who is not inferior to King Zhao, is my uncle."
It is common for the marriage between the princes of Liu in Hebei and the local tribes. Geng Chun's mother's surname is Liu, and she is Liu Yang's sister. Liu Yang was King Zhending in the former Han Dynasty. He was deposed as the king by Wang Mang. Now he gathered Changshan, Zhending and Zhongshan counties, and claimed to have 100,000 troops. His strength is even better than that of King Zhao.
To the north of Hebei, there is also Shanggu County, which is famous for its Youzhou cavalry, and is just on the back of the two Lius in Hebei. The Shuotuo of the Xin Dynasty led Geng Kuang, who was also a distant relative of Geng Chun.
With these three factors, even if Liu Lin wanted to take advantage of the fact that the fifth reunion was not annexing Wei territory, he had to consider it carefully, first be courtesy and then army.
This happened to Geng Chun's thoughts. Wei land had no extra troops to fight with King Zhao. If he wanted to turn against each other, he had to wait until the east and west met in Hedong before talking. Therefore, he could only talk to the envoy. Geng Chun had already communicated with King Zhending Liu Yang, telling about his "thoughts to restore the Han Dynasty" with the fifth relationship, thinking about cheating for a few months before talking about it.
Geng Chun had already received a letter from the fifth Lun who sent people to detour Shangjun and Taiyuan from afar. Their trump cards seemed to be increasing, so he said to Dewey: "Since the fifth Lunboyu is rebellious, it is naturally to restore the Han Dynasty. He has occupied Chang'an, protected the queen mother, cleaned the palace, and waited for the true emperor to enter the residence."
This is natural to others.
But Geng Chun originally thought that Liu from Hebei just wanted to respond from a long way to raise the banner of Gengshi, but he never expected that Liu Lin had another amazing plan. Therefore, when the three-month tour of the wine and the messenger Dewey revealed it, Geng Chun was immediately surprised, or, in other words, surprised!
"You mean that Liu Ziyu, the son of Emperor Xiaocheng, is still alive?"
...
"King, please believe me. The voices between Zhao and Wei are heard from each other. If you cannot survive, there will be a battle!"
When he learned that the King of Zhao was joined forces with Wei County, he was expelled by the fifth reunion and fled to Handan to rely on Liu Lin, Li Neng, a great surname of Wu'an who was dependent on Liu Lin, was filled with indignation and reprimanded him for advice again.
Liu Lin shook his head: "If there is no Gengchun in Wei, this Yecheng will be beaten as soon as possible without hesitation."
But the fifth reunion put this person there, but he asked King Zhao to be afraid of the enemy. It was exactly what Geng Chun thought. Liu Lin had a big plan in his mind. If he wanted to join King Zhending, Chengjun, and Geng Kuang of Shanggu, he would have to be kind to Geng Chun. If he went to war directly and was attacked from both sides, he would not be able to say who it was.
He only comforted Li Neng and said, "Geng Chun agreed that he would return Wu'an Tianhe Iron Mine to the Ru family in the future, and all the lost property will be compensated. Zhao Weihe will benefit both, and if he fights, he will lose both."
The king cannot control the king, and he must be the emperor. King Liu Yang of Zhending has agreed to support Liu Ziyu as the banner and unite Liu from Hebei, but the prerequisite is to request reconciliation between Zhao and Wei.
"And the fifth reunion has won Chang'an, and Geng Chun promised that he would also offer the document and respect Ziyu as the emperor!"
What's more, the fifth reunion now has Chang'an and Empress Dowager Xiaoping, which made Liu Lin quite moved. After all, Liu Ziyu in his hand is a fake, but if he can be recognized by Empress Dowager Xiaoping, more people will believe it.
When Feng Yan came to the envoy in the past, he also said that the fifth reunion was restored to the Han Dynasty. Although Li Neng was expelled, he did not infringe on the small brothers of Liu Lin from the three Wei families.
Compared with the huge interests of Geng Chun's cooperation with the fifth relationship, Li Neng's personal grudges are not worth mentioning at all.
What's more, Liu Lin believes that their biggest enemy is the bronze horse thief who is currently wandering in two states, capturing the Bohai Sea and Hejian counties, and is known as tens of thousands of people and is becoming increasingly powerful!
Liu Lin had already thought about it: Only with the fifth reunion in Chang'an, the green man in Gengshi, Geng Chun and Ma Yuan blocked the red eyebrows and the remnants of the Xin Dynasty, can their "Northern Man" develop calmly.
"When I defeated the Tongma and recruited his army. They were all north of Zhao State and west of Liaodong, and I followed the wind. I then took the emperor to order the kings to use armored soldiers from the two states of Hebei to see the Central Plains in the south!"
...
The day when "Liu Ziyu" became emperor was set on the first day of the seventh month, but the location was not in Zhao Palace, Handan.
Because Wang Lang used his old skills and divination, he believed that "Hebei has the spirit of a emperor, especially Changshan and Julu, the best city at the junction of Changshan and Julu." In addition, this support was led by King Zhao and King Zhending, and the location was better in the middle, so he moved his troops to the city.
Because Liu Bang once stayed here during his expedition in the north, there was also a high temple in the Qianqiu Pavilion in the local area, which was not overwhelmed with incense, which was convenient for worshiping ancestors, and an altar was also set up in a place called "Wuchengmo".
All major forces in Hebei sent people, but Geng Chun only sent two younger brothers Geng Zhi to watch the ceremony on the excuse of "the bronze horses joining forces with the thieves on the fifth floor to attack our county again". They were also the nephews of King Zhending Liu Yang. As soon as they arrived, they met with this powerful faction in Hebei.
King Liu Yang of Zhending was in his forties and had a big tumor on his neck, which was so red that he turned purple, but Liu Yang did not feel ashamed because a fortune teller told him that it was auspiciousness. He tilted his neck and accepted the Geng brothers' bow down, and greeted King Liu Lin of Zhao, and also accepted his special wish of moving to the city to make "Liu Ziyu" ascend the throne.
Liu Lin also took the opportunity to raise one thing: "Although King Zhending has no daughter, Your Majesty has always heard that the king's niece Guo is so polite and is willing to hire me as the queen and ask me to attack Ke on his behalf. I wonder what King Zhending wants?"
"My niece is young and weak and ungrateful, and she suddenly becomes too hasty because the queen is too hasty."
Liu Yang did not comment, touched his big tumor, and squinted his eyes at "Liu Ziyu" who appeared in the imperial crown suit.
You can say nothing, although "Liu Ziyu" is a fake, he is much stronger than his two "seniors", Emperor Gengshi Liu Xuan, who was so nervous when he ascended the throne, and Emperor Liu Ying, the Yuan Dynasty, who bites the ministers in public. His demeanor and etiquette are not comparable to Emperor Hu Han, Lu Fang, who became a monk halfway through.
That step, bow and stop were all practiced in the Zhao Palace for two years. I practiced day and night, and I don’t know how much sweat shed.
This scene made some of the white-haired marquis Liu wipe their tears and sighed: "I never thought that I would see the dignity of the Han family again today!"
Even the Zhending King, who was doubtful about his identity, nodded slightly. This person was at least able to be on the table and deceived most people.
The ceremony was similar to that of several other Han people. They were burning to the heavens, greeted the six sects, looked at the gods, and then issued an edict to ascend the throne.
"I ordered the governor of the Ministry and the prefect of the county: I, the son of Emperor Xiaocheng, was the son of Ziyu. In the past, I was in trouble with the demon queen Zhao, and Wang Mang usurped the murderer. Those who knew the order would protect me, break up with the riverside, and support myself in Zhao and Wei."
"Wang Mang steals the throne and is punished by Tian. Tiande is decreed to protect Han, so he sent the prefect of Dongjun Zhai Yi and the Marquis of Yanxiang Liu Xin to join forces to fight and go to Hu and Han. All the heavens lead the land and know that I am hiding in the idle people. The Lius of Nanyue are my pioneers."
"I looked up at the sky and then rose here. In July, Renchen was located in the dynasty. I calmed down the air and received rain at the same time. I heard that I was a country and my son inherited his father, which was not easy for me in ancient and modern times. Liu Shenggong did not know me, so he held the emperor's title. All the soldiers who raised righteousness and helped me, and they should split the land and enjoy the prosperity of their descendants."
This directly describes the Gengshi regime as the "pioneering kings", hoping that they will go to the imperial title.
The ceremony was over, and the capital of the "Northern Han" was settled in Julu City after the kings discussed. Although Liu Lin was inclined to accept Liu Yang's suggestion and joined forces with the fifth reunion and Geng Chun, he still defended Wei. It was not safe to move the base camp to Julu, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
The year name was also named "Sixing" to clarify that Liu Ziyu was the true descendant of Emperor Xiaocheng, and the Han Dynasty was revived again!
King Zhending, King Zhao, and King Guangyang continued their titles. The three of them had fiefs together, with a total of eight counties. The dozens of marquises of Liu who were deposed by Wang Mang also restored their ranks, each occupying one county, and granting the position of a doctor, filling the court.
He also set up an official title, based on the reign of Emperor Cheng of Han. Emperor Cheng also changed the system and issued an edict to abolish the generals, and appointed the Grand Sima General of the Cavalry as the Grand Sima, and the Censor and the Grand Sikong as the Grand Sikong, and together with the Prime Minister, they were called the "Three Dukes".
King Liu Lin of Zhao was unwilling to let go, and was the Grand Sima, followed by King Liu Yang of Zhending, and the Grand Sikong. Because the distance was too far, King Liu Xie of Guangyang, who had only sent his nephews to the scene, became Guangluxun. Even Geng Chun and Ma Yuan were Xu as the throne of nine ministers and were granted the title of marquis.
However, the position of "Prime Minister" was specially kept at the suggestion of King Zhao, and the seal was engraved with a ribbon. The envoy Dewey sent another trip to Taiyuan to send the seal of the "Northern Han" to the fifth reunion far away in Guanzhong!
...
Just as the "Northern Han" was established, he had just rejected the fifth relationship of the "Western Han" and set the auspicious day of the King of Wei on the first day of the seventh month!
Although the fifth reunification requires everything to be simple, the ceremony still needs to be held at the Qin Palace in Liyang City. The seventh reunion wears a new dress to prepare to go. Although he wears everything like a monkey-like crown, it does not prevent him from walking. When he meets the eighth reunion at the entrance of the alley, Brother Biao warmly greets the old Ba with him, but suddenly asks him a soul-question on the way.
"Ji Zheng, tell me, the official system of the King of Wei is a new system."
"Or use the Chinese system?"
