Shuhan

Chapter 212 Princess Zhurong, the envoy of Jiaozhou!
Early morning three days later.

The sky is bright.

Liu Chan just woke up when he saw Fei Yi coming forward with a happy face.

"Your Highness, good news ahead, good news, Changsha Manmanhao brothers have been put to death, more than [-] Changsha barbarians and more than [-] Changsha barbarians have been captured."

Liu Chan is also in a good mood to have such good news just after waking up.

"It seems that the soldiers at the front work hard and the generals are brave and good at fighting, so they can capture the brutal so quickly. Wen Wei, you must implement various rewards as soon as possible, so as not to chill the hearts of the soldiers."

The battle was fought too fast.

It was far beyond Liu Chan's expectation, and naturally it was also far beyond Fei Yi's expectation.

The transportation of various materials and the implementation of rewards have put a great test on Liu Chan's current logistics system.

It is also a huge test for the officials of the prince's mansion who are in charge of this matter.

If it is done well, everyone will be happy. If it is not done well, there will be other voices in the army. It will be a huge damage to Liu Chan's prestige in the army.

A commander who has made a promise but is unable to carry it out, how can there be any soldiers who believe in his words and serve him for such a commander who does not keep his word?
Fei Yi was naturally aware of the importance of this matter.

He bowed his hands to Liu Chan immediately, and said solemnly: "All kinds of materials are already on the way of transshipment. In addition, there are also seizures in Changsha County. The rewards in advance can be distributed."

If the Luoshan army is still there, I am afraid that this reward will not be enough.

But its army is gone now, so the dead naturally don't need to give rewards.

Especially for these servants.

As for what Luo Shan would think?

Whether he will feel resentment in his heart, these have nothing to do with Liu Chan, and it has nothing to do with Changsha County.

After all, the surname of Luo County and Xiajun County is no longer Luo, but Liu.

Strong strength means hard fists and loud voices. Obviously, now that Luo Shan is alone, it is already difficult for him to win this game of thrones.

If he obeys, Liu Chan will bestow wealth and honor on him and his family for a lifetime.

but.
If there is resentment in his heart, then his death is not far away.

"Wen Wei's work, I'm at ease. You should first list the list of various rewards. After I read it, if there is no problem, then follow this."

"Here!"

Fei Yi took the order immediately.

"Then, Your Highness, how should we deal with the tens of thousands of Changsha barbarians and tens of thousands of Changsha barbarians?"

dispose of?

Liu Chan sneered and said, "All moved out of Changsha County, demoted to be tenant slaves in the army, and sent to Nanyang County, Nan County, and Jiangxia County to farm. If they don't obey, they will be killed immediately without notification!"

Liu Chan sent troops to kill the barbarians in Changsha.

It is even more impossible to keep them where they are, adding more variables.

Their ending was either to integrate into the Han people, and after several generations, they changed from slave tenants to ordinary people.

Either he was unruly and rebellious, and died exhausted in farming, mining, transporting food and grass for the army, and military supplies, and became a corpse.

Other than that, they have no other way out.

He, Liu Chan, wanted to show the barbarians in the four southern counties what would happen to Liu Gongsi who obeyed him!
To be a barbarian, one must have the self-awareness of a barbarian.

If you pay tribute on time and obey orders, you will still be rich, otherwise, the end of the Changsha barbarian tribe will be your end in the future.

"If that's the case, then the subject understands."

After receiving Liu Chan's password, Fei Yi knew it well, and was ready to arrange specific matters.

"Your Highness."

Fei Yi looked around behind Liu Chan, and after confirming that there was no sign of Guan Yinping, he said, "Your Highness, there is one thing that I don't know whether to say or not."

Ok?
Liu Chan frowned, and said angrily: "Speak quickly if you have something to say, and let go of your fart if you have something to say. I learned from some idiot. It's really whetting my appetite."

Seeing that Liu Chan was about to kick him, Fei Yi took a step back first, and then said softly, "Your Highness, Princess Zhu Rong, is coming to Linxiang soon."

Princess Zhu Rong?

Liu Chan was stunned.

"Isn't she in Nanzhong? Without her, will Nanzhong be stable?"

Fei Yi smiled slightly, and said: "There is a governor in Nanzhong, and there is a garrison commander Deng Ai in the field. Those who did not submit to Nanzhong in the early days were killed by His Highness a few times. Now there are few who dare to riot, and there will be no chaos. .”

of course
This is indeed one of the reasons why Princess Zhu Rong came to meet Liu Chan from South Zhongkeng.

But the bigger reason is probably something else.

One is because of longing, but the more reason is that Liu Chan put too much pressure on her.

It's only been a few months?
There are more and more women around.

No matter how long it takes, isn't the good man going to forget her completely?
Due to various reasons, Princess Zhu Rong came to Changsha County from Nanzhong and Xingye.

"It was so."

In fact, speaking of it, he hadn't seen Princess Zhu Rong for a while.

The smell of a barbarian woman is also missed.

of course
More, it is also concerned about the situation in South Africa and China.

The Nanban is not limited to the Nanzhongman. Below Nanzhong, there are many barbarians who have not been conquered by Liu Chan.

Whether these people are obedient, whether they need to make small moves, whether they need to be conquered, this is what Liu Chan wants to know.

"Since you told me, where is the princess now?"

Fei Yi hurriedly said: "The envoys ahead have sent news that Princess Zhu Rong has arrived in Linyuan, and in a few days, she will arrive in Linxiang."

Liu Chan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

But just as Liu Chan was about to go to the study to study the battle situation in Hefei, a steward outside the hall came to give a briefing.

"His Royal Highness, Princess Zhu Rong has arrived in Linxiang, and she is now asking to see her outside the hall."

has arrived?

Liu Chan looked at Fei Yi angrily.

"How many days?"

cough cough.

Fei Yi coughed, and said, "According to the normal speed, it will indeed take a few days, but the princess is afraid that she misses His Highness very much, so if she can arrive today, she may have traveled all the way during the starry night."

In fact, it was really the same as what Fei Yi said.

When she arrived in Linyuan, after she knew the location of her good husband, Princess Zhu Rong didn't delay at all. She immediately led her maid and entourage, and rode forward day and night, which shortened the journey by several days.

"You boy, I will clean up later."

Liu Chan said to the steward, "Invite the princess quickly."

But the steward said: "The princess is currently taking a bath in the guest room, I'm afraid His Highness will have to wait for her for a while."

Coming here this starry night, the appearance must not be much better.

Women love beauty, and Princess Zhu Rong is no exception.

"Then I'll wait for her."

Liu Chan originally wanted to wait, but after thinking about it, he immediately changed his mind.

"I'd better meet her in the guest room."

Women rely on coaxing.

And Liu Chan is too good at coaxing women.

This full of longing, full of resentment, Liu Chan must fill it up today!

……

"Hurry up, hurry up. Don't make Mr. Lang wait for a long time."

In the guest room, Princess Zhu Rong urged the maid who served her to change clothes.

She looked tired, but she looked very energetic at the moment, and her face was full of anticipation and yearning.

Princess Zhu Rong was dressed in a gorgeous Nanman costume with flowing sleeves, like a fairy descending to earth.The noble and graceful figure exudes charming charm, which makes people fall in love with it.

She was wearing a gorgeous and colorful barbarian dress with exquisite patterns embroidered on the skirt, shining with gold and silver light.A jade belt is tied around the waist of the skirt, and the jade belt is inlaid with pearls and gemstones, shining with charming brilliance.Her clothes show the demeanor of the Southern and Central Man, showing the beauty and mystery of the exotic.

Her skin is fair and delicate, as crystal clear as suet jade, exuding a faint light.Her eyes are as bright as black gemstones, piercing and full of emotion, as if they can penetrate people's hearts.

Her hair fell down like a waterfall, black and beautiful, and she was combed in a delicate bun. Flowers and beads were dotted on her head, adding a bit of delicate charm.The face is delicate, the red lips are smiling slightly, exuding charming charm.

Wearing jewelry and jade ornaments, necklaces, bracelets, and earrings are all precious accessories unique to Nanzhongman, which emit dazzling light and make her more beautiful and charming.

Liu Chan walked in slowly, when the maid saw Liu Chan, she was about to speak out, but she was caught by Liu Chan's silence gesture, and she didn't dare to speak.

He raised his hand again, and the latter understood, and slowly left the guest room, closing the door behind him.

"Xiao Qiao, why are you leaving? Your Highness has to wait."

Seeing that her hair hadn't been tied up yet, but all the maids around her were gone, she became anxious.

"The princess knows that I am anxious to wait."

Liu Chan stroked the beauty's blue hair, and embraced her from behind.

"Your Highness!!!"

As soon as she heard Liu Chan's voice, and was held in Liu Chan's arms again, Princess Zhu Rong suddenly became weak all over, leaning against Liu Chan's arms, she could not even stand still.

"It's all my concubine's fault, making His Highness wait so anxiously."

"I was in a hurry, and I think you are even more anxious."

"what!"

Princess Zhu Rong suddenly exclaimed, and her whole body was immediately embraced by Liu Chan.

Then the whole person was thrown by Liu Chan on the bed beside him.

"Your Highness, the clothes I wear are hard to put on."

"It's okay, see you later."

After speaking, without waiting for Princess Zhurong to say more, Liu Chan immediately stepped forward.

An hour later.

Princess Zhu Rong leaned on Liu Chan, smiling all over her face,

"Your Highness has been away from my concubine for several months, so many wonderful things must have happened, why don't I tell my concubine."

Liu Chan nodded, turning the little bits and pieces of the past few months into the moist and silent spring rain, and talked to Princess Zhu Rong in detail.

From daytime until late at night, the two are still together.

"Your Highness."

No matter how gluey it is, there is also a time to separate.

No, Fei Yi's voice could already be heard outside the guest room.

"The envoy from Jiaozhou asks to see you."

Jiaozhou envoy?
Could it be that after he suppressed and recaptured the barbarians in the four southern Jing counties, the Jiaozhou scholar family was going to join him under Sun Quan's side?
If you think about it carefully, it's really possible.

Liu Chan kissed Princess Zhu Rong on the forehead and said, "What a beauty, I'm going to do some business first."

Princess Zhu Rong nodded like a small bird, and said softly: "Your Highness, please don't waste your business because of my concubine status. I will change clothes for Your Highness."

to be frank.

After working for a day, Princess Zhu Rong was also tired.

Although there were only exhausted cows and no plowed fields, she was already tired from the hasty march for several days.

Unrestrained indulgence, at this moment, I just feel that my eyelids are going to fight, and I wish I could sleep for three days and three nights.

Now that Fei Yi is here, it allows her to rest.

I haven't seen her for several months, His Highness's abilities have grown day by day, and even she can't greet her anymore.

After changing clothes, Liu Chan immediately came out of the guest room.

He said to Fei Yi expressionlessly: "Take the envoy of Jiaozhou scholar family to the main hall, and I will be there in no time!"

In the reception hall.

The middle-aged envoy was dressed in gorgeous envoy attire, with wide sleeves flowing like clouds, bordered with gold and silver threads, exuding majesty and solemnity.

His tall and straight figure is very tall and straight, with his chest straightened out, showing confidence and majesty.The face is upright and resolute, with sharp edges and corners, revealing a firm and decisive temperament.His deep eyes shone with wisdom, making him seem resourceful and shrewd.

With a neat beard, he inadvertently revealed a bit of maturity and stability.The hair is neatly combed, without any mess, and looks very decent.

At this moment, he came here with the mission of the Patriarch of the Shi Family.

"Hahaha~"

Before anyone arrives, the sound arrives first.

Liu Chan laughed loudly, and then walked slowly to the main seat.

"Foreign envoy, pay my respects to Your Highness."

The etiquette of the Jiaozhou envoy was impeccable, Liu Chan nodded, waved and said, "Sit."

After he sat down, Liu Chan also cut to the chase.

"I don't know what your master sent you here for?"

The envoy smiled lightly, cupped his hands and complimented: "Your Highness has swept all directions and suppressed the barbarians in a few months. My lord admires me, so I come here and wish to marry Your Highness. My lord has a granddaughter who is exactly beautiful and beautiful. His Highness is such a hero, it will be suitable."

Good family?

Liu Chan frowned.

"I don't know if your master, Shi Xie, is willing to serve my father, the King of Hanzhong, as the master?"

Good family?

What does it matter?
What Liu Chan wants is for Jiaozhou scholars to express their views!
"This……"

The emissary smiled awkwardly, and said: "I'm afraid we need to think more about this matter, and please give your Highness a lesson."

So you just don't want to?

Although Liu Chan was a little disappointed, this matter has not exceeded his expectations.

If the scholars of Jiaozhou were willing to join him now, he would find it strange, and even think it was Jiang Dong's conspiracy.

As for the reason, I have to tell the story of the fortune of the Jiaozhou scholars:
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the lords were fighting for hegemony, countless battles took place in basically every state, but there was a state that was quite different, which seemed to be forgotten and rarely appeared in people's vision.

This state is Jiaozhou, also known as Jiaozhi.

The name Jiaozhi is actually very interesting. It is said that the name comes from a local custom: men and women bathe in the same river, so it is called Jiaozhi.

During the period of Qin Shihuang, this place belonged to the Baiyue area, which was divided into three counties: Nanhai County, Guilin County, and Xiang County, and was managed by Ren Xiao, the prefect of Nanhai County.

At the end of the Qin Dynasty, the Central Plains entered a period of chaos. Taking advantage of no one paying attention to the remote Lingnan area, Zhao Tuo, the governor of Nanhai County who took over Ren Xiao's position, began to annex the other two counties, and established himself as the Nanyue Wuwang, separatist for a long time.

In 111 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty destroyed the Nanyue Kingdom and brought it under the rule of the Central Plains Dynasty again.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jiaozhou had a total of seven counties, namely Jiaozhi, Nanhai, Yulin, Cangwu, Hepu, Jiuzhen, and Rinan.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, in order to avoid the war in Xinmang, a family of gentry moved to Cangwu, Jiaozhou, where they took root and multiplied.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, by the time of Shi Xie's generation, the Shi family had passed down seven generations and became the largest wealthy family in Jiaozhou.

Shi Xie, whose name is Weiyan, was born in Cangwu Guangxin. His ancestors were originally from Ludi. He fled from Shandong to Jiaozhou because he avoided the Wang Mang rebellion in the late Western Han Dynasty.

Shi Xie's father was appointed as the prefect of Rinan, and he himself was sent to Luoyang to study early. He was promoted to be Xiaolian and Shang Shulang; after his father died, Shi Xie was promoted to be the prefect of Jiaozhi after the funeral .

In 187 AD, Shi Xie was appointed as the prefect of Jiaozhi and became the actual controller of Jiaozhou.

Soon after, Zhu Fu, the imperial governor in Jiaozhou, was killed because of tax collection.

Since then, the family of scholars in Jiaozhou has become the dominant family. The brothers of the family of scholars just ring the bell and chime when they go in and out, just like the emperor on a tour. Brothers are awesome.

Of course, it was not without reason that the imperial court (or Cao Cao) trusted Shi Xie:
On the one hand, at that time many scholar-officials fled to Jiaozhou in order to avoid the chaos of war. Shi Xie treated them with courtesy, and they also reciprocated after returning to Luoyang. Xie;

On the other hand, in addition to preventing Liu Biao from expanding his power, the official recognition of an indigenous family that has already controlled Jiaozhou also has the meaning of winning over. After all, it is better for Shi Xie to admit that he is a Hanchen than to let him be independent.

After Zhu Fu's death, the imperial court appointed Zhang Jin as the governor of Jiaozhou. Unfortunately, his ending was almost the same as Zhu Fu's, and he was killed by his generals not long after.

Two governors died in a row, and no one in the court dared to come to this vicious place again, so Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou who was next to him, saw the opportunity and sent Lai Gong to replace Zhang Jin as the governor of Jingzhou, and also appointed Wu Ju as the governor of Jingzhou. The prefect of Cangwu wanted to control Jiaozhou in his own hands.

Of course Cao Cao, who relied on the emperor to make the princes, did not want Liu Biao to control Jiaozhou. However, due to its geographical location, Jiaozhou had been isolated from the Central Plains for a long time, and the court could not control it. He also served as the prefect of Jiaozhi.

From then on, Shi Xie became the vassal of Jiaozhou even more legitimately, until the situation in the Central Plains became clear.

In 210 AD, after the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan finally took full control of the Jiangnan area and set his sights on Jiaozhou.

Therefore, Sun Quan also sent a governor to Jiaozhou. The ability of this governor was far inferior to those of the previous ones. His name was Buzhi, and he later succeeded Lu Xun as the prime minister of Soochow.

Bu Zhi did not take office alone. Sun Quan gave him more than 1000 people to accompany him to help him take over Jiaozhou.

After Bu Zhi arrived in Jiaozhou, his first target was Wu Ju, who was not of the same heart as himself. He targeted Wu Ju, the prefect of Cangwu, to kill chickens and monkeys, and soon got the attachment of Shi Xie and other brothers.

The general situation is set, and the Shi Xie brothers also know that although Jiaozhou is controlled by their brothers, it is only the reason why the princes in the Central Plains have no intention to compete with them. Now that Sun Quan has set his sights here, they have no room to resist.

Of course, in order to better rule Jiaozhou, Sun Quan did not treat Shi Xie harshly, but named him General Zuo, and still served as the prefect of Jiaozhi, actually controlling Jiaozhou.

In order to repay Sun Quan, Shi Xie also reciprocated. He not only sent envoys to meet Sun Quan from time to time and offered various tributes, but also supported Wu in the conflict between Wu and Shu, and induced Yongkai, a wealthy family in Yizhou, to rebel against Shu and return to Wu.

Shi Xie sent his eldest son to Soochow to serve as the prefect of Wuchang by Sun Quan.

For Shi Xie, he was obedient to anyone who came, and he would not keep anyone who left, thus ensuring that the Shi family was not affected by political turmoil.

Sending envoys here now is also to avoid antagonism with Liu Chan.

however……

Little Shixie still wants to sit on the Diaoyutai, have you asked your grandfather Liu Chan yet?
