At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

All they can do is to visit Yang Biao after Jia Xu's permission in twos and threes, and then complain and talk, there is no way.

It was originally a great event for Guo Peng to pacify the Yuan Shu rebellion, but because of the enfeoffment incident that happened afterwards, it hurt the nerves of the officials in the court. Biao cried about it.

They felt inexplicable grief and indignation, and because they couldn't even see the emperor himself, and the emperor had been absent from the court three times in a row, they were very worried whether Liu Xie had been killed.

"Impossible, Zhang Ji and Duan Yao are rude, but Jia Wenhe is not rude. Jia Wenhe must be aware of the importance of the emperor. It is impossible for Jia Wenhe to do such a thing. Don't worry."

Yang Biao leaned on the hospital bed, dragging his sick body to deal with this group of crying softies.

Chapter 474 Si Yang Biao showed a trace of regret

The level of unscrupulousness of the three giants in Liangzhou has suddenly increased, which has exceeded the psychological endurance limit of these officials.

But they were powerless to resist, let alone dared to resist, so they had no choice but to come to respected scholar leaders to complain.

"But that's the case. They want to change the law, feud the state and build the country, and distribute the fiefdoms. This is something that hasn't happened since the pre-Qin period! Yang Gong, if this really happens, the consequences will be disastrous."

"Yeah, Mr. Yang, this is the third time. If you do it again, Guo Zifeng will accept it!"

"Mr. Yang, think of a way, Mr. Yang!"

The officials sought advice from the respected leader Yang Biao, but Yang Biao couldn't come up with any advice.

When personal safety is barely maintained, the Hongnong Yang family has political prestige, but there is no soil to exert this prestige.

Facing a group of military men who didn't know a lot of characters, they deeply understood what it means to be a scholar when you meet a soldier.

Seeing Yang Biao's headache and embarrassment, Yang Biao's son Yang Xiu stood up.

"Uncles, my father has not recovered from his illness and cannot discuss with you for too long. Please ask your uncles to take a physical examination."

A group of officials looked at me and looked at you, and finally withdrew helplessly.

After they all withdrew, Yang Xiu helped his old father to lie down with some distress, looked at Yang Biao's tired expression, and asked softly: "Father, next time, let the son stop them all from the door. They came here only to hope that their father would be strong, but how can our family make father stand out?"

Yang Biao sighed deeply.

"Dezu, it's good for you to understand. At this time, whoever stands out will die. Liangzhou Wufu won't talk to you. He will use a knife with you. It's useless to say anything. Our family is now Powerless, at the mercy of others, how can you still be strong?"

Yang Biao laughed at himself and sighed deeply.

Yang Xiu hesitated.

"Father, do you think that Guo Zifeng will really accept the edict of feuding the state and establishing the country, becoming the king of a country, and breaking the world apart?"

Yang Biao was silent for a while, blinked his eyes, and then slowly said: "I don't know, I don't know, what Guo Zifeng is going to do, only he knows, three resignations and three concessions are the rules, the fourth time is to dismiss or not?" Accept it, and only look at Guo Zifeng himself."

"Guo Zifeng has made a lot of contributions, but he doesn't know what it means to feud a state and establish a country. If he has the heart and accepts it, what will happen to the Han Dynasty in the future? My father might have predicted it?"

Yang Xiu sat beside Yang Biao's bed.

"Your father is not a saint and doesn't know so many things, but I know that once Guo Zifeng sets the precedent, it will be hard to say what will happen later. The world has changed, and it is no longer the world we are familiar with.

Wu Fu was in charge of the country, his clothes were humiliated, he was so gentle, he could do nothing but be their puppets, decorations, playthings... Dezu, you know, I suddenly regretted being my father. "

Yang Xiu was taken aback.

"Why did father say that?"

"For the father...for the father, I don't know whether it was right or wrong to decide to stay with the emperor."

Yang Biao's eyes were a little empty.

"My father thought that staying with the emperor would help the emperor, help the world, and turn the world around, but in the end, he found that he couldn't do anything, and he was humiliated by Xiliang Wufu. He was stuck here, in a dilemma.

If the father had decisively taken you away from here and went to another place, would the situation be different from now?Can we do more things, can we restore the Han Dynasty and prevent it from falling to this point? "

Seeing Yang Biao's confused look, Yang Xiu didn't know what to say.

But there is no doubt that Yang Xiu could feel Yang Biao showing a trace of remorse.

For this very real regret, Yang Xiu felt an inexplicable ominous premonition.

At the moment when the world is about to undergo drastic changes, not only Guo Peng himself and Guo Peng's progressive group want to make Guo Peng go further, but many people also want to make Guo Peng go further.

Such as Zhang Ji, such as Duan Yao.

Their minds are very clear. The only thing they don't want is that they become the first case. They have to watch Guo Peng ascend to the position of monarch and create their own foundation, and then they will follow up.

It is always convenient for future generations to make a precedent. If we trace the origin, no one can embarrass them, but we should talk about the instigator.

With such thoughts in mind, they tried their best to help Guo Peng, let Guo Peng be the first to establish a state, suppress all opposition voices, and even carried out humane destruction of some people with bad intentions.

Shangshutai Shangshu Wangdao, because he secretly asked the servants in the palace to contact Liu Xie, asked Liu Xie if he knew about it, and planned to get rid of the three giants, Jia Xu, Duan Yan and Zhang Ji, was informed, and then Duan Yan personally He led people to arrest him, chopped off his head, and wiped out the three clans.

Three of Wang Dao's friends were implicated as a result, and the three clans were exterminated together. This wave of political purges killed more than [-] people. The heads of Wang Dao and the other four were hung on the city gate, and they were not allowed to take them down for ten days , to deter others.

Other officials feared this and did not dare to take any action, lest they be executed.

Therefore, no one dared to raise any objections until Guo Peng tactfully refused to return the rewarding team for the third time.

Yang Biao's illness did not improve, but this time, he was forbidden to meet outsiders, and his family was guarded inside the house, trembling, not knowing when he would be safe and free again.

It seems that there is no such possibility in a short time.

Duan Yan and Zhang Ji were really anxious and hated this rule of three words and three concessions.

"Why don't you just accept it? Why are you making excuses and making concessions? It's extremely hypocritical! Guo Zifeng is the same, he is also an extremely hypocritical person! What kind of shit celebrity, what a famous celebrity's appearance, he is a liar!"

Zhang Ji cursed angrily.

Duan Jian's complexion is not good either.

Jia Xu looked normal.

"Everyone in the world is like this. Everyone is willing to see a modest and prudent person. If he wants to achieve a high position, it is not because he wants to, but because he has enough moral cultivation, he is recommended by others, and then he has to do it. This is more obedient. public."

"hypocritical!"

Zhang Ji cursed again.

Duan Yan shook his head and sighed.

"How else can we say that we are warriors and they are high-ranking officials? We just can't learn this skill, so we have to have this opportunity, this opportunity, before we can step on their heads."

Jia Xu felt that Duan Yao was quite clear about what he said, at least what he said was right.

It's just because I haven't learned their shamelessness and cruelty, and I like to go straight. Those who come out of the Shura field in Liangzhou can kill them, but they can't defeat them.

"It's the third time. This time we send people over, and Guo Zifeng should agree. As long as Guo Zifeng agrees, everything can be prepared. According to his ideas, he will be granted the state and the country, and then... the two generals really decide Ok?"

"That's natural, otherwise why waste all this effort?"

Zhang Ji glanced at Jia Xu angrily.

"There was Guo Zifeng who set the precedent, he was the first, we will come again, no one can blame us."

Duan Yan took it for granted.

Jia Xu sighed, pretending to be helpless and nodded.

"Then, the southern clan?"

"Isn't there a way to shut them up?"

Duan Yan grinned: "If they want it, we'll give it to them. I'd like to see if these clans are really loyal ministers, or if they're like Guo Zifeng, who obviously want a lot, but still want to make three concessions, and then to accept."

Chapter 475 .470 Wu Liu Biao is doomed not to go north

Seeing Duan Yan's confident expression, Jia Xu pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

Jia Xu doesn't know what this future will look like, but what he knows very well is that no one is Guo Peng's opponent. Guo Peng has the strength to sweep the world. What he lacks is fame and opportunity.

He is creating a name for himself, creating an opportunity.

With fame and opportunity, is there really anyone in the world who can stand against Guo Zifeng's iron-armored army?

Probably not.

How long will it take to see earth-shaking changes and the advent of a new era?

Suddenly, Jia Xu felt a tinge of anticipation in his heart.

The news that the imperial court wanted to grant Guo Peng a state and a state had spread to Jingzhou and Xuzhou before Guo Peng returned to Yecheng, and then to Jiangdong, and soon, from Jingzhou to Yizhou.

About the second time Guo Peng rejected the reward, everyone in the world knew the news.

When Tao Qian heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, and then inexplicably terrified.

"It was the pre-Qin rule to feud a state and build a country. Since the Qin Dynasty, the fifth-class titles of princes and uncles have been abolished, and the [-]th-rank military merit titles have been adopted. What is the court doing? Restore the fifth-class title system?"

Tao Qian looked at the civil servants and generals under his command and asked anxiously.

Yuan Shu was finished, and Guo Peng controlled the entire Central Plains except Xuzhou, coercing Xuzhou.

Although he did not enter Xuzhou, Tao Qian found out that Guo Peng had set up an army in Jiujiang County, the number of which was about 5000, and they practiced continuously every day.

Because of Yuan Shu's death, Tao Qian suddenly found that he didn't have any protective umbrella, and he was so fragile without the umbrella.

Yuan Shu's army of more than [-] troops was vulnerable to Guo Peng's attack, and they were wiped out. Tao Qian didn't think his army was stronger than Yuan Shu at all, so once Guo Peng had an idea for him, would he be able to hold on?

He was afraid.

But now the news of the feudal state and the founding of the country is somewhat inexplicable.

"Except for the enfeoffment of some kings with different surnames at the beginning of the founding of the country, there is no such precedent. Guo Zifeng set a precedent. I don't know how people in the world think about it."

Cao Hong looked at Tao Qian: "But anyway, this is good news for us, because in this way, Guo Zifeng should not have the energy to invade Xuzhou."

"exactly!"

Tao Qian suddenly realized that he pointed at Cao Hong: "That's right! That's right! Guo Zifeng is busy building up the country and has no time to invade Xuzhou. Xuzhou is safe! Yes! Hahahaha! Xuzhou is safe! It's safe! Hahahaha !"

Tao Qian, with white hair and wrinkled face, was smiling so happily for the first time since he attacked Yuan Shu.

All the wrinkles on his face were smiling.

Seeing Tao Qian's appearance, Chen Deng became more and more disappointed with Tao Qian, and even hated Tao Qian's rule.

He was a little anxious, a little worried.

He knew that Guo Peng would succeed in feuding the country and creating a new era, and it was time for the Chen family to make a statement. Otherwise, once Guo Peng straightened out the interior and started to attack the south, the Chen family in Xuzhou Benefits cannot be guaranteed.

After Tao Qian assigned Zang Ba and Cao Bao to lead troops to guard the border and protect Xuzhou, the meeting broke up. Chen Deng returned home and told Chen Gui about it.

"It's come to this point? Yuanlong, do you think Guo Zifeng will accept the reward to build a country?"

"Should be."

Chen Deng said: "It's just that I don't know why the imperial court did this. It was to win over Guo Zifeng, for fear that he would send troops westward to attack Hongnong?"

"That's the only explanation."

Chen Gui sighed and said: "Guo Zifeng once captured Yuan Gonglu and cleared away all obstacles. The world is so big that there is no one who can stop Guo Zifeng. Yuan Long, how did you do what your father asked you to do? gone?"

"I have sent someone to contact the Mi family, and use the relationship of the Mi family to contact Guo Zifeng, but, father, what we can provide at present should not be enough. We need to provide more to get the money from Guo Zifeng. For another peace."

Chen Deng looked at Chen Gui, and Chen Gui nodded slowly.

"The situation has changed too quickly. I didn't expect Yuan Gonggong to become emperor suddenly, and I didn't expect Guo Zifeng to destroy Yuan Gonggong so easily. We must act as soon as possible to prevent the situation from deteriorating."

"I understand, father."

On Xuzhou's side, the Chen family and his son have already decided on their future path.

As for Jingzhou, Cai Mao was also thankful for his timely decision.

But Liu Biao obviously didn't feel so lucky, but rather annoyed with fear.

"Fonding the state and founding the country? Are you kidding me! Since the establishment of the dynasty, has there been such a thing? Guo Zifeng defeated Yuan Gonglu, and it would be nice to be rewarded with an official position! The feudal state and the founding of the country, is this to destroy the dynasty?"

Liu Biao was very angry at the meeting, and his subordinates were silent.

"General, what the Hongnong court thinks must be to win over Guo Zifeng. They are very worried that Guo Zifeng will take advantage of the momentum and move westward to capture Hongnong and cut off their way of life. That's why they have such a move to prevent Guo Zifeng from going westward. .”

Kuai Yue opened his mouth and said: "When you talk about feuding a state and founding a country, there is no such thing in this dynasty, but judging from the meaning, this is not like the feudal state of the kings, but rather like the feudal state in the pre-Qin period. A feudal country that dominates."
