Mi Han

This incident may sound absurd at first glance. After all, Sun Quan's current identity is the Great Han Taiwei who Liu Bei personally issued an edict to worship.

Even without mentioning this point, Sun Quan's eldest son, Sun Deng, is still in Jingzhou. From these two aspects, the things mentioned in this letter are not credible.

However, if you analyze it carefully, this matter is not impossible.

In the final analysis, Taiwei of the Great Han is just a false name to appease Sun Quan. This can temporarily appease Sun Quan, but it is absolutely impossible to make him truly surrender to the Great Han.

After all, the current military and political affairs in Jiangdong are still firmly in the hands of Sun Quan.

As for the matter of the proton, Sun Quan certainly valued Sun Deng, but Sun Deng's quality in Jingzhou was essentially just to ensure that Sun Quan would not attack Jingzhou to the greatest extent.

But in other respects, such as secretly flirting with Cao Wei, such as the secret connection with Nanzhong mentioned in this letter, who can guarantee that Sun Quan will not do this?

After all, the world is divided into three parts.

This letter was written by Yong Kai to Huang Yuan, presumably this was one of his bargaining chips to lure Huang Yuan to rebel.

And Huang Yuanneng kept this letter with him at all times, so he must have verified the credibility of this letter, thinking that he would use this letter to ask Yong Kai for a reward at any time after he accomplished something.

With Deng Ai's wisdom and this letter in his hand, many inferences quickly appeared in his heart.

After those inferences appeared in his mind, Deng Ai did not immediately publicize the existence of this letter.

He first led Shi Bao aside, and then whispered a few words to him.

After receiving Deng Ai's instructions, Shi Bao nodded knowingly, and then took several of his personal guards, rode on a steed and headed towards the north quickly.

Shi Bao's sudden departure did not attract the attention of others. Seeing that Shi Bao was already far away, Deng Ai just called some generals who were still cleaning the battlefield.

Now that Huang Yuan's head is in front of everyone's eyes, and most of the rebels have surrendered, it can be said that the Huang Yuan Rebellion has basically been declared to be settled.

When all the generals gathered around Deng Ai, they looked at Deng Ai with inexplicable admiration.

When they followed Deng Ai to the north, they felt that most of the Huang Yuan rebels were mobs, and it should not be difficult to put down.

But it was not difficult to put down, Huang Yuan's rebels also had [-] people, so these generals thought that they would have to spend a lot of effort to put down the rebellion.

But what they didn't expect was that in only one month and only one hour of fighting, they had completed this task brilliantly, and their own losses were not too great.

The ability to achieve such a result does not lie in the bravery of the Han army, but in Deng Ai's ability to predict the enemy's opportunities and command well.

Facing the admiring gazes of the generals, Deng Ai was very grateful.

After the generals arrived, he ordered: "After the whole army has cleaned up the battlefield, immediately march towards Hanjia County."

Deng Ai's order surprised everyone.

According to common sense, after the army has just won a big victory, the first thing to do is to clean up the battlefield.

After cleaning the battlefield, the chief general should obediently lead the troops to garrison where they are, and then consider how to write a beautiful battle report to the court.

This is especially true for the rebellion they faced that almost threatened the imperial capital.

If this battle report is written well, plus the results that are not mixed with any water, once Liu Bei Long Yan is happy, then Deng Aike will benefit endlessly.

But the first thing Deng Ai wants to do now is to march into Hanjia County.

The reason why Deng Ai did this is known to everyone. It is nothing more than to appease the situation in Hanjia County as soon as possible, so that Shu County will no longer be in danger.

It's just that Deng Ai's choice is indeed very different from ordinary people.

But now no one dared to disobey Deng Ai's order, so after Deng Ai's order was issued, all the generals were ordered to step back and act.

After the generals left, Deng Ai stroked the letter on his chest, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

In the month when Deng Ai quelled the Huangyuan Rebellion in Shu County, a mission from Jianye entered Longbian County in Jiaozhi County.

The envoy and deputy envoy of this Jianye mission are old friends of Mi Yang.

The chief envoy sent by Sun Quan was Sun Huan, and the deputy envoy was Yu Fan.

These two were regular visitors to Gong'an City back then, especially Sun Huan, who hadn't been down for a long time.

Of course, due to the remote location of Jiaozhi County, the "brilliant deeds" of the two in Gong'an City have not been widely circulated in Jiaozhi County.

Otherwise, it would not be too much for Yu to be unable to meet people, and Sun Huan was determined not to show up in Jiaozhi County.

The reason why Sun Huan and Yu Fan came to Jiaozhi County from thousands of miles away was not that Sun Quan exiled them, but they came to see one person under Sun Quan's order.

This man is Shi Xie, the uncrowned emperor of Jiaozhou today.

Shi Xie, courtesy name Weiyan, was born in Cangwu Guangxin.

When Shi Xie was young, he learned from famous scholars and was later worshiped as the prefect of Jiaozhi.

The ancestors of Shi Xie were originally from the Central Plains. In order to escape the war at the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the ancestors of Shi Xie led their clansmen to move all the way south to Jiaozhou to settle down.

Since the Shi family was a big family when they moved to the south, when they took root in Jiaozhou, they quickly developed in Jiaozhou and became the leading big family in Jiaozhou.

When Shi Xie became the prefect of Jiaozhi, the authority of the central court was seriously declining.

Under such circumstances, Shi Xie, on the one hand, in order to protect the land and the people, and on the other hand, to develop the family, he arbitrarily made the clansmen the chiefs of other counties in Jiaozhou.

Under Shi Xie's arrangement, Shi Xie and his clan actually controlled half of Jiaozhou's territory. As for the remaining half of the territory, the county chiefs at all levels mostly obeyed Shi Xie's orders.

It can be said that before Sun Quan got involved in Jiaozhou, Shi Xie was the local emperor of Jiaozhou.

In the 15th year of Jian'an, Sun Quan sent Bu Zhi as the governor of Jiaozhou, and Shi Xie took the initiative to lead his brothers to join him.

Later, Shi Xie sent his son Shi Qian to Soochow as a hostage to show his loyalty to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan also did not hesitate to reward Shi Xie, and various official positions were rewarded to Shi Xie's clan as if they were free of money.

When Sun Huan and Yu Fan entered Longbian City, Sun Huan asked Shi Hui, stating that he wanted to see Shi Xie in person.

Sun Huan is a son of Sun Quan's family, and Sun Quan is Shi Xie's lord. Logically speaking, Sun Huan should not ask Shi Hui for it.

After all, Shi Hui is only Shi Xie's son.

But the actual situation is that before Sun Huan came to Jiaozhou, Sun Quan had exhorted Sun Huanqian to treat Shi Xie with the same respect as he had treated him.

The reason why Sun Quan ordered Sun Huan like this was because he was Shi Xie's lord, but he knew that Shi Xie had a prestige in Jiaozhou that others could not match.

Shi Xie's prestige in Lingnan is not only inferior to that of Nanyue King Zhao Tuo.

Even the Chen Dynasty in Vietnam a thousand years later would specially make Shi Xie king because of his prestige, which shows how deep-rooted Shi Xie's influence in Jiaozhou is.

Prestige in this world is strength.

Sun Quan knew that if Shi Xie supported him, even if there was no Wu army in Jiaozhou, Jiaozhou would still belong to him.

If Shi Xie did not support him, even if there were tens of thousands of Wu troops in Jiaozhou, it would be like a stone sinking into the sea, and there would be no big storms.

Sun Huan may not have the same political insight as Sun Quan, but he always listened to Sun Quan, so when talking with Shi Hui, his tone was quite humble.

Yu Fan, who was on the side, couldn't help secretly heaving a sigh of relief when he saw that Sun Huan hadn't made a moth.

It seems that after that ordeal, Sun Huan's temperament changed a lot.

Facing Sun Huan's request, Shi Hui was a little surprised for a while.

Shi Xie was very old, and had basically seen no outsiders many years ago. Sun Quan knew about this, and most of the envoys sent by Sun Quan in the past also handed over to him.

He couldn't figure out why Sun Huan would call Shi Xie by name this time.

Shi Hui originally wanted to refuse Sun Huan, but then he thought that Sun Huan's request might be ordered by Sun Quan, so Shi Hui changed his mind and replied: "Zhong Lang will wait a moment."

After saying this, Shi Hui left to look for Shi Xie.

After Shi Hui left, Yu Fan came to Sun Huan's side and told him, "Zhong Lang will not forget the Taiwei's instructions."

Hearing Yu Fan's reminder, Sun Huan nodded solemnly.

Even if Yu Fan didn't remind him, Sun Huan himself attached great importance to this mission.

After the Yong'an League, Sun Huan was sent back to Jiangdong by Liu Bei.

After returning to Jiangdong, even though no one criticized him on the surface because of his identity, it's not like he didn't know what everyone said behind the scenes.

How could the disgrace of the "Diaolou General" be easily washed away by his noble status?
However, Sun Huan did not give up on himself because of this, but thought that one day he would use his own ability to wash away the shame.

Fortunately, Sun Quan did not forget his "clan Yan Yuan".

This is also normal, anyone can abandon Sun Huan, only Sun Quan can't, because they are clan relatives.

Out of various considerations, Sun Quan decided to let Sun Huan go to Jiaozhou to fulfill the entrustment of the Cao Wei envoy.

After receiving the mission from Sun Quan, Sun Huan cherished this opportunity very much.

As long as you make meritorious deeds slowly, there will always be a day when you will wash away your shame.

The reason why Yu Fan was appointed by Sun Quan as Sun Huan's deputy envoy was that Yu Fan's lip service was suitable for being an envoy.

It is also because Yu Fan and Sun Huan, both Sun Ce's old ministers, unconsciously got closer and closer after the First World War of Gong'an.
Not long after Yu Fan reminded Sun Huan, a burst of heavy footsteps came from behind the two of them.

After hearing the heavy footsteps, Sun Huan and Yu Fan immediately turned around and looked behind them.

Soon, the figure of an old man with white hair and wrinkled face came into their eyes.

This old man must have been Shi Xie, who has been a powerful figure in Jiaozhou for more than half a century.

Shi Xie was hunched over, and because of his advanced age, even with Shi Hui's support, his whole body moved very slowly.

But it was such a slow walking speed that Sun Huan and Yu Fan didn't dare to say a word to urge them.

On the contrary, almost as soon as they saw Shi Xie, Sun Huan and Yu Fan immediately bent down and saluted Shi Xie.

Shi Xie didn't seem to notice Sun Huan and Yu Fan's salute to him, he walked on his own, his eyes were cloudy and unfocused, like an old man who was dying.

As time slowly passed, Shi Xie finally passed in front of Sun Huan and Yu Fan, came to the main seat in the hall and sat down slowly.

After he sat down, the old and dim-eyed Shi Xie seemed to realize that Yu Fan and Sun Huan were saluting to him, and a slurring sound came out of his mouth.

The reason for his lisp is because Shi Xie really doesn't have many teeth left in his mouth.

This year, he is already 85 years old!
Nearly [-] years old, in this epidemic-ridden Lingnan, it can't be said to be rare, it can only be said to be bizarre.

It's just that even though Shi Xie was slurring his speech, Sun Huan and Yu Fan could barely hear Shi Xie's words after careful identification.

It turns out that there is no need to be more polite.

After hearing these four words, Sun Huan and Yu Fancai got up together, and then sat down in front of Shi Xie under Shi Xie's gesture.

After taking his seat, Shi Xie seemed to muster all his strength, and asked Sun Huan in front of him, "I don't know why you want to see the old minister so much?"

Just now, Shi Hui had already stated to Shi Xie the characteristics of Sun Huan and his status as an envoy.

Since it was not the first time he had heard Shi Xie speak, Sun Huan could hear him more clearly this time.

Seeing that Shi Xie took the initiative to ask about his intentions, Sun Huandang even told Shi Xie what Sun Quan wanted him to convey.

After finishing speaking, Sun Huan began to observe Qi Shixie's expression.

It's a pity that there are so many wrinkles on Shi Xie's face, even if there is any change in his expression, Sun Huan can't detect it.

And after Shi Xie heard that Sun Huan's meeting with him was to ask for money, food, soldiers and horses to deal with the Han army, a strange color flashed quietly in his cloudy eyes.

It's just that he didn't show it. He asked Sun Huan, "The governor of Jiaozhou is Lord Lu. For such important matters, you should go to him."

After finishing speaking, Shi Xie still showed some gentle smiles on his face, as if he was teaching his nephew.

But after listening to Shi Xie's words, Sun Huan froze in place.

The Lu Gong that Shi Xie said was Lu Dai.Lu Dai succeeded Bu Zhi as the governor of Jiaozhou last year.

But Sun Huan knew that neither Bu Zhi nor Lu Dai could mobilize Jiaozhou's soldiers, horses, money and food when Shi Xie was alive.

But this kind of words can't be said clearly, so Sun Huan can only be stunned for a while.

Fortunately, Sun Huan had Yu Fan beside him.

Yu Fan reacted quickly, and immediately returned to Shi Xie with his hand in his hand and said, "The gentleman is the crown prince of Jiaozhou, and the crown is the hearts of the people. How can anyone not ask the hearts of the people before starting the war?"

After Shi Xie heard Yu Fan's answer, the smile on his face became more gentle.

But he didn't immediately respond to Yu Fan's words.

After quite a while, Shi Xie finally realized that he still owed an answer to the envoy of his "lord".

So Shi Xie said with a smile: "Tomorrow, the envoy will be satisfied."

After finishing speaking, Shi Xie resigned first on the grounds of being old and weak, and asked Shi Hui to help him back to the dormitory, leaving only Sun Huan and Yu Fan looking at each other.

After Shi Hui helped Shi Xie out of the lobby, Shi Xie's words rang in his ears:

"Sun Huan is not very experienced in the world, so he is not a problem, but Yu Fan, who is beside him, deserves more attention.

Don't you always feel that you are no worse than King Zhao?
You will set off with them tomorrow, and let me take a good look at your abilities. "

After saying these few words, Shi Xie stopped talking, and Shi Hui's face was already full of joy.

But Shi Xie's heart seemed a little heavy.

Hanzhong was victorious, the seven armies were flooded, Gong'an was victorious, and Xiangfan was victorious.
Is the big man really going to be revived?

However, he had betrayed the rule of law of the great man, and he had slaughtered all the friends of the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Once the great man was revived, would the Dahan clan have a future?
The past should be the past, so how can you wish to change your name against the sky?
Thinking of this, the turbidity in Shi Xie's eyes dissipated in an instant, replaced by the ruthlessness of the past.

Being old and not dying is a thief.
