Mixed in the Three Kingdoms as a magic stick

In the early morning of the next day, Lu Bu, who had slept happily on the soft incense pillow for the whole night, woke up refreshed, and took Fang Tian's painting halberd early, and went to the school grounds.

Don't look at the thing that feels weird when you first touch it in your hand, but it is extremely comfortable when you really sleep.

Sure enough, it is a pillow used by immortals, so it has to be different no matter what.

As soon as Lu Bu arrived, he unexpectedly saw Yan Qing whom he was still thinking about just now, and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Lord Sikong?"

Yan Qing was concentrating on beating the wooden stakes for a while, "killing" the excessively accumulated cards, so as to refresh some more useful ones. It passed lightly on Lu Bu's golden and bronze crown with two long pheasant tails and burrs.

Yan Qing smiled: "Feng Xian got up quite early."

Thanks to the lack of the most desirable pillow, he didn't sleep well all night, and almost had a stiff neck.Now that he woke up, he never had a bad habit of staying in bed, so he just got up and swiped his cards.

It was the first time for Lu Bu to see this gentle and refined man practicing martial arts. He was both amazed and couldn't help but pay attention to Yan Qing, who was dressed in a white robe with an air of immortality, stabbing slowly and gracefully with a long sword.

Lu Bu thought he was restrained, but as long as Yan Qing was not a hopelessly dull idiot, it was impossible for him to ignore the scorching scrutiny.

He coughed lightly, put the sword back into its sheath neatly, and asked: "It's still early, there are so many people, and it's not interesting to practice alone. If Feng Xian is not busy, why don't you eat with me?"

Lu Bu immediately understood that Yan Qing, who had just come out of the palace last night and had a conversation with the emperor, probably had something to tell him.

He agreed without hesitation, and then took the initiative to ask: "That kid Zhang Wenyuan should get up too, shall I ask him to come with me?"

Lv Bu, who had always been aloof and arrogant, with a domineering demeanor of indifference to all living beings, suddenly became so observant and understanding, which really made Yan Qing a little impressed.

He attributed this to the fact that Lu Bu was in a good mood just after he got the Chitu Baoju, and immediately smiled and said, "That's fine. If that's the case, please call Fu Yi together first."

Lu Bu responded loudly, but a little unhappiness rose in his heart inexplicably.

Weird.

What's there to be upset about?

Lu Bu stood there for a moment, frowned and stared at Yan Qing's leaving back. He didn't understand where the restlessness came from for a while, so he simply forgot it and strode towards the barracks.

With one kick, Zhang Liao, who was still soundly asleep, was kicked hard, telling him to hurry up; with the other kick, he kicked Gao Shun, who was still in a well-behaved sleeping position.

Gao Shun rolled on his bones, bounced up, opened his eyes again, he was sleepless, and asked calmly, "What orders does General Lu have?"

Lu Bu said casually, "Don't be chattering, Lord Sikong is waiting."

Gao Shun's actions were not usually swift and resolute. Lu Bu walked from his couch to the side of the military tent. Before he had stepped out of his foot, Gao Shun had changed his battle clothes at lightning speed and followed seriously.

Lu Bu: "..."

How could Gao Shun feel a bit of an eyesore when he acted so positively?

Gao Shun didn't know that his boss was full of entanglements. Lu Bu walked in front with his head held high, and he followed behind without haste. At the same time, he didn't forget to ask the guards about the situation of the night watch.

Of course, the little commotion caused by the missing pillow could not have been missed.

Gao Shun repeated in surprise: "Is this true?"

Lu Bu's back stiffened suddenly.

Gao Shun frowned and thought about it for a moment, and said firmly: "I have never touched it before. Who is so bold that he entered the main account without a warrant?! We must strictly investigate and punish, so as to serve as an example to others!"

Lu Bu's gaze began to wander back and forth.

No matter what, Lu Bu, who was reluctant to destroy the stolen object, thought about it, and after a while the conversation was over, he quickly went to hide it, so as not to be seen by others.

When the three generals arrived, Yan Qing also finished writing for a while and ordered someone to bring a letter to the Xun family, and greeted with a smile: "Why are you so cautious? Sit down."

Lu Bu took a cursory look, and found that there were all the food he liked.

Yan Qing was not only sitting in front of the culprit who caused him not to sleep well last night, after thinking for a while, he decided to tell them the truth: "In the next few days, there will be some turmoil in the court, I will pretend to be sick to avoid it, don't let this happen It's gone."

Gao Shun replied seriously: "No!"

Lu Bu was puzzled: "Didn't you just make a great contribution, why don't you reward it, and there will be disasters?"

Yan Qing smiled and said: "Of course His Majesty rewarded some gold and silver treasures, you can choose them later."

Zhang Liao showed hesitation.

Yan Qing caught it keenly, and encouraged him: "What is Wen Yuan thinking?"

Zhang Liao licked his dry lips, and tried to say: "Could it be related to the military power in Beijing?"

Although he is still immature in terms of qualifications and experience, Zhang Liao has indeed shown some potential for a famous general-he has both a sensitive political sense and situational judgment.

Yan Qing clapped his hands lightly, and praised: "Wen Yuan is right."

Zhang Liao's ears turned red to the root after being praised like this.

Lu Bu was not reconciled to letting Zhang Liao steal the limelight, so he tried his best to think about it.

Unexpectedly, before he could come up with a reason, Gao Shun, who has always been taciturn, took a step ahead of him: "The Yuan family is in great danger. If His Majesty insists on going his own way, not only will he not be able to do what he wants, but he will be tired of your lord. It may not be appropriate for the capital to be in one place." Long time love."

Lu Bu was taken aback: "Going? Why?"

Isn't Sikong doing well?

And just fought a big victory for the little emperor!Even if you kill the donkey, you can't do that, right?

Yan Qing nodded and said: "If it wasn't for Dong Zhuo's threat, this is a wrong place, and I should have left long ago. It's just that His Majesty probably won't let me go, and I need the Yuan family to help me."

Lu Bu has always been at a loss, but when he heard this, he vaguely caught the inspiration. After racking his brains, he really figured out the context: "It is the emperor who wants to give the military power of the imperial army to the lord, and the Yuan family will definitely not If you are willing to return the power, you are afraid that you will harm your lord, and your lord does not care about this three-acre land, so you want to ask for it to be released?"

Yan Qing smiled and nodded, and said: "I can't hide it from you, that's exactly the case. Now I intend to take care of the vacancy in Yuzhou Mu, one is to resist Dong Zhuo's iron cavalry, the other is to protect the peace of the people, and the third is because of the chaos of the court. The lord is weak, the Yuan family only cares about power and power, no one knows that foreign troubles are approaching, and no one listens to the sufferings of the people, this trip is also to save his own life."

"The reason why I keep you here is to hear about your aspirations."

The three generals looked at each other, straightened their backs unconsciously, and listened carefully.

Yan Qing said generously: "If you are willing to go to the post with me and be a moderate local official, I will have a way to ask your majesty to ask you; if you have other plans, there is a better place to go. Let me tell you, I will definitely not force it, but I wish you a bright future together."

Lu Bu's heart sunned: Is there still a need to ask?

The three of them who had already convinced Yan Qing stood up without hesitation, then bent down at the same time, and saluted earnestly.

They said in unison: "The final general is willing to follow the lord around, at your command, to go through fire and water, and not to hesitate."

With their categorical promise, the tense nerves in Yan Qing's heart really relaxed.

Sincerity is rewarded and planning is trusted.

—It doesn't get any better than this.

"Thank you all." A warm current of emotion slowly flowed through Yan Qing's heart, and he stopped talking politely to these three tough men who entrusted their wealth, life, and future honor and disgrace to him.

Instead, he cut straight to the point and made it as easy to understand as possible: "There is a saying, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, even if I report my illness and refuse to go to court, the Yuan family will not be able to stop..."

Just as Yan Qing expected, at the court this morning, Liu Bian announced the impressive results of Yan Qing's battle, and then transferred the military power from Yuan's family to Yan Qing's, which caused an unprecedented uproar .

The Taifu Yuan Kai faction went crazy and united with the courtiers to impeach Yan Qing, and even explicitly accused the emperor of being whimsical, absurd and reckless, and would bring disaster to the country and society.

Liu Bian didn't realize the seriousness of the problem at first, and he was very annoyed when he was pointed at and scolded by a group of old men who insisted on words, so for the first time, a serious suppression was launched.

It was the inspiration and delusion I got after I insisted on establishing Yanqing as Sikong last time.

But he didn't want a fake job that could be bought with a lot of money to be completely incomparable with real military power.

And Liu Bian had to face it, but how could an old official who had eaten more salt than he had eaten rice in his life be intimidated by this posture?

On the spot, someone made a righteous and impassioned speech, and then there was a remonstrance full of tears.

Of course death was not achieved, but the miserable appearance of those ministers who were over half a century old, comatose, and carried out with bloody foreheads fell into everyone's eyes.

And their claims and accusations sounded reasonable: Although Yan Qing made great achievements, the rewards were too great. The position of Sikong is already the honor that the scholars of the world dream of, how can they give military power? !What's more, he was born in a humble family, young, impulsive, likes to be fierce and fierce, and is suspected of being a military weapon. child's play!

Yan Qing stayed at home, and they couldn't trouble him for a while, so they simply attacked all the officials who might be from his faction.

Even Lu Buna's adoptive father, Zhijin Wu Dingyuan, was not spared. He was demoted back to Bingzhou in a daze, and returned to Bingzhou governor, continuing to do his old job of guarding the border.

But for Ding Yuan, who was aggrieved in Beijing, it could be called a blessing in disguise.

However, Yan Qing, who was supposed to be on the cusp of the storm, spent the past few days of Liu Bian's desperation and misery peacefully and leisurely in the Sikong Mansion surrounded by Lu Bu and his troops.

The only regret is that I missed the wonderful performance of Chaoshang.

Seeing this, Xun You privately said to his uncle Xun Yu: "The candidate is correct, but Your Majesty is too impulsive."

"Yan Sikong did not hesitate to risk his life, offend the powerful, report to the country, and go down to the common people. He also never forgot to uphold the aspiration of loyalty and keep the code of modesty and retreat. This kind of broad-mindedness is hard to find in the world, and it is a model." Xun Yu sighed. He took a breath, and said in a low voice: "Nowadays, I hate officials only for myself, and if I ignorantly crowd out Zhongliang, Your Majesty has put the cart before the horse, and makes people feel sad."

Xun You smiled slightly, but the smile didn't penetrate his eyes, but he was full of worry: "What Yan Sikong said is not unreasonable. Dong Zhuo's wolf nature is indulged by his master, and no one can do anything to him. If he is allowed to run around , sooner or later it will harm the land of Yu. If not?"

Xun Yu pondered for a long time, and said: "Through the matter now, we and the others keep our words light, even if we stay in Beijing, it will be of no avail..."

Xun You understood: "Then that made this happen?"

Xun Yu said lightly, "Yes."

Yan Qing, who only had occasional correspondence with them, had no way of knowing about the conversations between the uncles and nephews of the Xun family.

But after a few days of leisurely waiting, Yan Qing still got his long-cherished wish and got the best result——

Even though he was very angry, Liu Bian soon couldn't hold on under the increasing pressure and had to choose to compromise.

At this delicate moment, Yan Qing, who had been on the lookout, also acted: he struck while the iron was hot, and put on his watch in a considerate manner.

He claimed to have little merit and virtue, and he was greatly loved by the Holy One, but he was really unbearable for this great task.He once again mentioned that he would be released to Yuzhou, not only to spread kindness on behalf of His Majesty, but also to guard against Dong Zhuo's military disaster.

Liu Bian only thought that Yan Qing didn't want to make things difficult for him, and Fang was so complacent, he felt more and more that Taifu Yuan Kai's faction was hideous in appearance and words and deeds.

And he really did not want to see Yan Qing in the short term—as if he was constantly reminding him of the humiliation of being a noble emperor, but no match for the courtiers who rely on the old to sell the old.

Because of this compensatory mentality, Yan Qing, who was about to travel far and leave the political center of the capital, received countless benefits from Liu Bian.

Not only did he retain the 1000 troops with ease (the Yuan family was willing to raise their hands high when they saw that he was going to get out, and they didn't use them to stuff their teeth), but the three generals Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun were all invincible in his eyes. It is different from the jumping price of the clearance sale, and it takes a few people who have been wanting for a long time to be the helpers.

Among them are Jia Xu, who is working as a young official in obscurity, and Sun Jian, who is the prefect of Changsha.

As for the famous people who came from rich families, especially those who are closely related to the Yuan family in Runan, such as Xun Yu, Xun You and Zhong Yao, Yan Qing, who has already taken advantage of the world, thinks he is not a greedy person, so he doesn't waste his time worrying about it.

……

In the first year of Guangxi (the sixth year of Zhongping), September [-]th.

Marquis Taiping of the Han Dynasty, Sikong, and leader Mu Yanqing of Yuzhou, led by a thousand people, officially embarked on the road of returning home with a full load of triumphs, returning to their hometown, and taking office as a new official.
