Chapter 694: Liu Yu's Future
Liu He is Liu Yu's eldest son and his ideal heir. If Liu He has made suggestions, Liu Yu naturally has to listen very carefully.
"Son, what do you think, but it's okay."
Liu He first bowed to Liu Yu, and then said, "The child knows why his father is thinking about now... As there is chaos today, the shepherds and guards in various places dominate the military and political forces, and do not listen to the orders of the court. His father came to Youzhou in the past to quell the orders. The pure chaos was pure. Later, he recruited millions of refugees and opened a border. It can be said that Youzhou carries the father's hard work, and the father does not want to leave the place, and the child understands it very well."
Liu Yu pursed his lips and sighed.
"And, after leaving Youzhou and going to Luoyang, it is still as usual, as it was in the past. It is far better to let others be moist and comfortable."
This last sentence can be regarded as a matter of Liu Yu's heart. Although this sentence cannot be said randomly, there are not so many taboos between them, father and son.
"My son knows me, alas! In fact, it is very difficult for a father to be a father. If it were the edict that the emperor summoned me to the capital on weekdays, he would never respond to it. He would definitely come up with thousands of reasons to reject His Majesty... But in this situation..."
Speaking of this, Liu Yu's face became even more sad.
"It's just that since Yuan Shao defeated Heishan, his power has become increasingly powerful. Hebei, both the gentry and the powerful, have all returned to his heart, and his momentum is far beyond me. If I expected it, Yuan Shao will definitely be going to conquer Youzhou next, but whether our current strength can fight Yuan Shao... To be honest, I have no idea."
Liu He sighed lightly and said, "Father, this matter is easy to judge, so there is no need to think about it carefully... We are definitely not Yuan Shao's opponent at the moment."
Liu Yu's heart couldn't help but fall to the bottom of the valley.
"Although my father has been in the north for many years and has quelled the Juchun Rebellion, he used the power of the tycoons rather than the ability to govern the army. When it comes to governing people, my father is the best in the world, but when it comes to governing the army..."
Speaking of this, Liu He shook his head and sighed: "This is not the father's strength."
"Yes." Liu Yu stretched out his hand, rubbed his temples, and said, "Being a father is not even a match for Gongsun Zan, how can he deal with Yuan Shao? You are right... If you continue to stay here, you will be in a different place sooner or later."
Liu He bowed and said, "Actually, with his father's reputation, Yuan Shao doesn't want to easily hurt his father. After all, his father is different from Gongsun Zan. You are always popular in Youzhou. Yuan Shao doesn't want to murder his father easily until the last moment. If his father can leave Youzhou on his own initiative, it will be a great thing for Yuan Shao, and he will let his father leave."
Liu Yu sighed and said, "What a pity. I thought my father was so old. If I wanted to guard the imperial court in the future, I would probably have no chance."
Unexpectedly, Liu He shook his head and said, "It's not entirely true."
Liu Yu was stunned when he heard this and said, "What do you mean?"
Liu He whispered: "Although the court has established its foundation in Sili, Jingzhao and other places, the Central Plains has been stolen by Cao Cao, and Hebei has returned to Yuan Shao. The tribute, population and resources of the prosperous northern part of the country cannot be used by the court. Only Liu Boyu from Jingzhou will pay tribute to the emperor as scheduled and provide supplies and supplies. After a long time, how can the court stop? It will be expanded sooner or later. By then, it will be a good opportunity for his father to show his skills."
Liu Yu stroked his beard and thought about it carefully for a moment. Fang said, "What do you mean... the court intends to expand westward?"
Liu He nodded and said, "That is, the generals of Liangzhou, led by Li Jue, Guo Si and others in Guanzhong, all occupied the territory. Although they have been pardoned by the court, Wang Yun's temperament will not let them go," he said.
"In Liangzhou, Ma Han and his two men held there for many years, and the court could not develop eastward. They thought they could only go westward, and those who could use it were only Lu Bu, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun..."
"But Lu Bu is a tiger and wolf. Once he is sent to Liangzhou, he will be in a state of great power. Your Majesty and Wang Yun will not agree. However, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun have heard that they are all in good health and may not be able to go on an expedition. The other generals in the court are either not qualified or qualified but cannot be trusted by the emperor."
"But my father is different. My father has been guarding Youzhou for many years and guarding the north for His Majesty. Since he came to Youzhou, the huge changes in the northern border are obvious to all. Who should the emperor use if he doesn't need his father to pacify Guanzhong and Liangzhou?"
When Liu Yu heard this, he was immediately moved.
"What is the difference between my father being able to gain a firm foothold in Guanzhong and Liangzhou when he is in Youzhou and guarding the border for His Majesty in Youzhou?"
Liu Yu thought seriously for a while and suddenly said, "My son."
"What's the matter?"
"Are all your thoughts on this just now?"
When Liu He heard this, his expression became a little distorted.
"Of course it's the child's heart."
Liu Yu smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, you are my husband's son. You still know how much you are a father. These many suggestions are definitely not your own ideas... I said, who taught you?"
Seeing that Liu He could not hide it from Liu Yu, he immediately bowed and said, "Report to his father, it was Liu Boyu who placed the letter to the child and asked the child to repost it on his behalf."
Liu Yu laughed when he heard this: "It was him... You went south once that day and got along well with Liu Boyu!"
"Liu Boyu's actions were all for the Han Dynasty. He sent someone to teach his children to persuade his father with these words, and hoped that his father would leave this place of fault as soon as possible and protect his loyal ministers for the Han Dynasty... He also asked his father to make a clear decision."
After pausing, Liu He said, "And Liu Boyu also said that Liu Xuande was already there. The next day his father entered Luoyang and should find a way to send Liu Bei to Beijing to assist his father... And if the court wants Dingxi Prefecture, he is willing to send troops north to help in Hanzhong."
Liu Yu sighed long and said, "This Liu Boyu has taken great pains to do. Liu Jingsheng gave birth to a good son, which is enviable."
"Father, then what do you mean?"
Liu Yu clapped his hands heavily and said, "In the current situation, besides receiving the order, is there a second way out for the father?"
After hearing Liu Yu's statement, Liu He couldn't help but be overjoyed. His expression, which had been nervous, finally relaxed.
"Father is wise!"
...
At this time in Chengdu, Liu Qi had already sent Zhang Fei to Nanzhong to take office in Yueshi County.
His younger brother Liu Xiu was in Yuezhi County and sent a message to Liu Qi that he was the barbarian king in Nanzhong. He had already learned that Liu Qi had implemented the ban on the implementation of the local barbarians in Ba County, Shu County and other places and the local barbarians. Therefore, they submitted requests to the county office, hoping to surrender.
After receiving this news, Liu Qi and his confidants were greatly inspired.
However, now the initiative has been brought to his own hands from the barbarians in Nanzhong, and Liu Qi is not so anxious about exercising the policy of restraint in Nanzhong.
He told Liu Xiu that he would communicate with the barbarian kings in Nanzhong on his behalf, and that the most powerful Meng Zhou, Tiexiang King, Wu Mufu and others would come to Chengdu to see him in person.
At this time, local tyrants launched a rebellion because of the tax administration of Guanghan County and Ba County. The same was true for Nanjun and Jiangxia County in Jingzhou, including Changsha County.
These rebellions were already under Liu Qi's expectations.
Under the major changes, the interests of certain groups have been touched, and it is normal for them to resist for the sake of their interests.
But this wind cannot rise!
Liu Qi immediately ordered Huang Zhong, Wei Yan, Liu Pan, Li Dian and others from Jingzhou to lead troops to suppress the local rebellion... Once the rebellion is quelled, the leader will be executed on the spot, and there is no need to release the detention to Chengdu.
In Yizhou, Liu Qi ordered Pang De, Xu Rong, Gan Ning and Liu Bei to quell the rebellion and rebel against the powerful, and also issued an iron-blooded military order, leading the rebels and their immediate relatives to be executed directly.
Some people are much better for letting them die directly in the battle formation than for capturing them alive and letting them order them to kill them again.
After Xu Rong, Liu Bei and others went to war, Liu Qi began to guide a person in Chengdu.
That person is Zhao Yun.
Compared to Guan Yu, who was too close to Liu Bei, who was better than Zhang Fei, Liu Qi felt that Zhao Yun’s current relationship with Liu Bei had not yet reached the point where he had to be bound together.
