It was mentioned in the decree that Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng, the governor of Jingzhou, were ordered to step down from the post of governor and follow the Taiwei Han Fu to enter the court, and the post of governor of Jingzhou was appointed to another person.

Liu Biao thought for three days and three nights holding the imperial decree of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and finally gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and handed over the seal of the governor of Jingzhou.

If you don't pay, you can't do it, Lin Madgou really can't beat him, if you keep pushing, the whole family's lives may be in danger.

Don't you hear that a mad dog hasn't bitten a person for three years, and it bites a person three times to the bone?

Chapter 548 Shop around

When Han Fu successfully completed the task of persuading Liu Biao, Ding Yuan had just stepped into the east gate of Hanzhong City.

Among all the heroes in the world, Zhang Lu is the most aggrieved prince, not one of them.

His territory is pitifully small, and he doesn't even occupy half of Hanzhong County. It can only be said that he is in the name of Hanzhong Prefect and only manages four cities near Hanzhong City.

Strictly speaking, Shangyong City should also fall under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong County, but in fact it has always been under Liu Yan's control.

Therefore, when Ding Yuan transferred to Hanzhong via Chang'an to meet Zhang Lu, Cao Dabai's emissary Sun Qian also touched Ding Yuan's front foot and stepped into Hanzhong City.

Hanzhong County can be regarded as the gateway to the Bashu area.

In history, Zhuge Kongming tried every means to seize Hanzhong from Cao Dabailian before he left Qishan for the convenience of using troops.

Starting from Hanzhong, you can invade Chang'an at will if you go north, use troops in the northwest to adjust Liangzhou, send troops to the northeast to attack Wancheng, and go east to threaten the nine counties of Jingxiang.

It is precisely because Hanzhong was the place of the Four Wars that it was able to fall into the hands of Zhang Lu, because no matter who falls into the hands of Hanzhong, there will be people around who will be dissatisfied.

Only when Zhang Lu sits in Hanzhong will there be no unnecessary fights.

It's probably because Zhang Lu himself has no ideas about power, but he has little passion. Instead, he is extremely concerned about promoting the Five Dou Rice Religion passed down from his ancestors.

The time spent dealing with government affairs all day long is far less than the time he spent dealing with educational affairs.

Received a report from the servants that Ding Yuan, the envoy from Pingyuan, and Sun Qian, the envoy from Chengdu, arrived at the same time, which made Zhang Lu feel pain in the egg.

Is it real pain, not fake pain, or the kind of pain that involves the spine and even the brain with successive twitches.

Regardless of Pingyuan and Chengdu, he can't afford to provoke them in these two aspects.

Long before the start of the Yangzhou War, after Zhang Lu learned that Lin Feng's horse had stepped into the northwest and coerced the Ma's army, he began to convene a group of ministers to discuss the matter of submitting a letter of surrender to Pingyuan City and becoming a minister of the Han Dynasty again.

It's just that some of the churchgoers recently made a fuss about breaking the church and going out, which involved most of Zhang Lu's energy. He has been busy appeasing the churchgoers and preaching the teachings, but he forgot about surrendering to the back of his mind.

Well now, Pingyuan and Chengdu envoys are here together, who do you say you will see first and who will you see later?

In desperation, Zhang Lu ordered Yan Pu, his chief think tank, to be invited over.

Yan Pu was not well-known in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but in fact he was a generation of virtuous men capable of both literature and martial arts.

It was under Yan Pu's several suggestions that Zhang Lu never strayed or made a mistake, and lived a peaceful and peaceful life.

Zhang Lu waited until Yan Pu entered the door, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Yan Pu's hands: "Gong Cao, now Pingyuan and Chengdu have sent envoys, and I am caught in the middle."

How will you deal with yourself? "

As a meritorious Cao in Hanzhong, Yan Pu actually presided over all the military affairs and government affairs in Hanzhong.

Letting Zhang Lu hold his hands, the expression on Yan Pu's face was extremely wonderful.

Obviously, he never expected that the envoys of the two families would arrive in Hanzhong at the same time.

"May I ask the prefect, have these two envoys ever met each other?"

Zhang Lu's head shook like a rattle.

"No, how dare I let their two families meet. If there is a fight here, no matter who hurts the other, it is not something the little Hanzhong can bear."

Yan Pu was very satisfied with Zhang Lu's handling: "In this way, things are easy. It doesn't matter which emissary the prefect meets first, as long as he keeps it secret, it doesn't make any difference."

Zhang Lu had a very nervous expression: "Gong Cao's words are wrong. The person sent by Pingyuan is the former governor of Bingzhou, and now Lord Sikong of Pingyuan Dynasty, Ding Yuan and Ding Jianyang."

Yan Pu gasped when he heard that, Ding Yuan was not an ordinary person, as early as the reign of Emperor Ling, Ding Yuan had already achieved the post of captain of the Bingzhou cavalry, and was in charge of all the cavalry in Bingzhou , are known as the strongest soldiers in the Northland.

When Ding Yuan was walking in the temple with a saber and saber, Zhang Lu was just a county magistrate in Hanzhong County, and Yan Pu was not even able to become an official in his white body.

"Since Mr. Ding Jianyang came here in person, it is best for Mr. Ding to meet Mr. Ding first. Otherwise, once word spreads that Mr. Ding has been neglected in Hanzhong, it will not be of any benefit to Mr. Ding, the prefect."

Zhang Lu also felt reasonable when he heard the words.

Sun Gan was just relying on Cao Dabai's face, otherwise, he would be a small Xuzhou celebrity with few names, and Master Zhang Luzhang knew which one he was?

Zhang Lu opened the door of the mansion and came out to meet Ding Yuan and Ding Jianyang in person.

Ding Yuan rode his horse to the gate of Zhang Lu's mansion, swung his pedals off the saddle and got off the horse, looking at Zhang Lu who came over with his hands wide open and a smile on his face, without any expression on his face.

Stretching out his hand to signal Zhang Lu to stop, he solemnly took out a shaft of imperial edict from the yellow leather bag on his back, and unfolded it slowly towards Zhang Lu.

"Zhang Lu, the prefect of Hanzhong, received the order."

Zhang Lu was stunned for a while, and then he understood.

Ding Yuan, an old traitor, seems to have heard the news of the arrival of Sun Qian, the envoy from Chengdu, and he announced the decree directly in front of the gate of Zhang Lu's mansion, just to let the people in Hanzhong know that Emperor Xian of Pingyuan came to see the decree. Whether Zhang Lu accepts or not.

What can Zhang Lu do?He is also very desperate.

Accept it, I'm afraid that Cao Dabailian will kill him after receiving the news, don't answer it, Nimalin mad dog will turn his face, it will be more scary, okay?

Weeping and kneeling with his robe lifted, he bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the imperial decree in Ding Yuan's hand.

Sui: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, my minister Hanzhong prefect Zhang Lu took the order."

Ding Yuan read out the imperial decree aloud, and there was no other meaning. Emperor Xian of Han came straight to the point, asking Zhang Lu to hand over the Great Seal of Hanzhong, hand over all military and political power to Lin Jun, and then bring the old Zhang family, old and young, together to pack and go to Pingyuan City It is inevitable that a high-ranking official must be a steed and ride a lifetime of prosperity and wealth.

After the imperial decree was read out, Zhang Lu said that he had accepted the decree, got up from the ground, walked to Ding Yuan with his head down, raised his hands above his head, received the imperial decree, then turned around and handed it to Yan Pu, and then bowed his hands to Ding Yuan with a smile on his face salute.

"Master Ding has worked hard all the way, please follow me into the mansion to have a good rest and take care of him."

Ding Yuan Ding Jianyang showed a strange smile: "Master Zhang invited the old man to rest in the mansion. I am afraid that he is in a hurry to see the envoy of the Deposed Emperor of Chengdu?"

Liu Bian considered himself orthodox because he called Liu Xie a false emperor, while Liu Xie always called Liu Bian a deposed emperor on the grounds that Liu Bian had been deposed by Dong Zhuo as an excuse.

Zhang Lu's white hairs were sweating immediately.

"My lord, you are just joking. You are the white jade pillar supporting the sky and the purple golden beam in the sea. I am just worried that your old man will be exhausted and exhausted. During your rest period, I will naturally wait for you." Outside the gate, waiting for the call of the boss at any time, how could it be possible to meet the so-called Chengdu envoy whose authenticity is unknown?"

Only then did Ding Yuan laugh out loud, and pulled Zhang Lu past him, and the two walked into the main gate of Zhang's mansion hand in hand.

At the far corner of the street, Sun Qian was always watching with a smile on a big show deliberately staged in front of Zhang's house.
