Cao Cao welcomed the emperor, was granted the title of Lieutenant of Sili, recorded the affairs of the minister, and pacified the yellow scarves of Yingchuan and Runan. In August, I entered Luoyang with the emperor, but the city of Luoyang was too dilapidated, and it would cost a lot of money to rebuild. So Cao Cao welcomed the emperor to Xuchang.
In the eleventh month at the end of the year, Cao Cao was granted the title of Sikong, and he rode and rode in the military, and all officials listened to him. So he personally led the army to attack Zhang Ji, who had chased the emperor with Li Jue and Guo Si. At this time, Zhang Ji was dead, and his nephew Zhang Xiu, who led the army, was dead.
Zhang Xiu had no intention of fighting, so when Cao Cao reached Feishui, he led his troops to surrender. This time Cao Cao did not have anything to do with Zhang Ji's widow, but many of the original troubles were missing.
In the same year, Cao Cao sent his servant Pei Mao to lead the Guanxi generals Duan Yan and others to attack Li Jue, who had annexed Guo Si's army.
Cao Cao is chasing after Dong Zhuo's remaining troops, while on the other side, one of Shouchun ascends to sacrifice to heaven and assumes the title of emperor.
Green smoke curled up above the incense, and a man stood in the smoke with a sword in his hand, looking up at the sky with a smile.
Yuan came from Chen, and Chen was the descendant of Shun, who used earth to carry fire, so he was the second in luck. There is also a prophecy saying: "Those who replaced the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaoye."
Tu Kebitu is for the road, Yuan Shu's word is highway, and he got Yuxi, thinking that he was ordered by heaven, so he proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun, and built the name Zhongshi.
Yuan Shu is a wealthy and prominent family, and the Yuan family has the name of four generations and three princes. There are very few people in the world who can compare with Yuan Shu, but this move has made him lose his popularity.
After Sun Jian's death, his son Sun Ce joined Yuan Shu's sect, but after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, Sun Ce escaped and became self-reliant in Jiangdong. He expelled Yuan Yin, the prefect of Danyang appointed by Yuan Shu, and made Wu Jing, the prefect of Guangling, and Sun Ben, the general, abandon Yuan Shu to vote.
Yuan Shu lost Guangling, Jiangdong and other large tracts of land, and his power was greatly reduced. Before he could deal with Sun Ce, Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin to lead troops to attack, and Liu Bei from Xuzhou also came with troops.
In almost a short period of time, Yuan Shuzhong rebelled against his relatives, and his influence decreased again and again.
In the end, when he became emperor, his ambition to map the world was wiped out, and he sat in the mansion drinking and having fun all day long, and he became thinner day by day.
That year, under Yuan Shu's rule, there was a severe drought in the Jianghuai area, followed by a famine, and scenes of cannibalism can be seen everywhere in the Jianghuai area. Shu Shao, Prime Minister of Pei, persuaded Yuan Shu to distribute grain to help the hungry people. Yuan Shu was annoyed at first, and shouted loudly at the wine table.
But Shu Shao said: "When I came to beg Your Majesty, I knew I would die. The reason why I did this is that I am willing to save the people from suffering with my own life."
Yuan Shu sat in a daze after listening to his words.
Qin Se's voice rang softly in his ears, and it seemed that at this moment, he realized why he had come to such a point.
Putting down the wine in his hand in a daze, he got up precariously, and walked slowly in front of Shu Shao.
The body hollowed out by wine and sex made the hand that used to mount the horse and lift the sword now only hang weakly by his side.
Laughing, Yuan Shu asked.
"Zhong Ying, you just want to enjoy the world's good name to yourself, but you don't want to share it with me?"
After that, Yuan Shu scattered grain to save the people.
But his decline has been irreversible. Most of the people under his rule are in dire straits, and they defected after robbing food. He seemed to be, left alone.
Yuan Shu was finally defeated by Cao Cao and Liu Bei. He wanted to go north to Yuan Shaona, but he was also stopped by Liu Bei on the way.
Yuan Shu's team was trapped in a wasteland, and the sound of dull coughing came from the barracks.
The person sitting in front of the table was skinny and seriously ill. His sunken eye sockets made him look like a mummy.
The cough gradually subsided, and Yuan Shu raised his eyes. He was still wearing a gorgeous robe, and there was a long sword in front of the table.
After a while, he stood up with difficulty, and walked out of the tent with his sword in hand.
The skinny man stood there as if he would fall if the wind blows. Lift the sword and place it in front of him.
Yuan Shu put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and with the friction sound of the blade slowly unsheathing, a flash of sword light illuminated his eyes.
He seemed to see a mirage, golden palaces and jade palaces, the red walls of the emerald palace, and a piece of dim lights.
"This is." His voice trembled a little: "Is it the lonely world?"
"Zheng!" With a sound of the sword, Yuan Shu raised his sword and stood upright, full of ambition, facing the boundless wasteland.
"Even if the orphan is defeated, he is also the emperor."
A smile appeared on his face, and blood spilled from his mouth, staining the front of his chest red.
Yuan Shu vomited blood and died on the way north.
A few days later, Yuan Shao received a letter and a cloth bag.
When I opened the letter, there was only one sentence.
"Brother has lost the reputation of Yuanmen, I hope brother will live up to it."
This may be the first time Yuan Shu seriously called him elder brother.
Yuan Shao was a little dazed holding the letter, frustrated in his chest, but he didn't know what he was frustrated with. He still remembered Yuan Shu talking to him when he first entered the official career.
"In the future, when people mention Yuanmen, they will definitely mention me, Yuan Gonglu first."
At that time, all he saw in his eyes was ambition and pride.
After a long time, Yuan Shao put down the letter, looked at the cloth bag beside him, and stretched out his hand to untie it.
Inside is a seal, with a radius of four inches, with five dragons in Shanghai, and on the front are eight seal characters of "ordered by heaven, long life and eternal prosperity".

In the back garden of Xuchang's palace, a young man was sitting in a pavilion, wearing brocade clothes and robes.
Looking at it now, this young man can no longer see the downcast appearance at that time.
After Cao Cao crusade against Dong Zhuo's remaining troops, he took back the robbed royal artifacts and built a palace in Xuchang. Now Xuchang seems to be the capital of Luoyang back then.
In front of the boy, sat a gentleman in white, who was doing needles on the boy's hand.
Today, Gu Nan was discussing with Xun Yu about farming in the courtyard, but he was suddenly reported to the palace.
It has been a while since she came to the back garden of the palace. When the young man first entered Xuchang, he would invite her into the palace for acupuncture and medicine almost once a month.
But after he learned that Gu Nan was the general in white next to Cao Cao, the number of times decreased a lot.
I don't know why today, I suddenly invited her here.
But counting this time, every time she comes, she just prepares some soothing soup, uses her inner breath to perform acupuncture, and chats with the young man, which is not a troublesome thing.
"Your Majesty, drink the medicine." After finishing the injection, Gu Nan handed Liu Xie the already warm soup.
It was the height of summer heat at this time, and the back garden in the palace was still cooler, but it was still a bit stuffy. Sitting in the pavilion, you can hear the humming of cicadas in the garden.
"Mr. Trouble."
The boy took the bowl in Gu Nan's hand, took a sip, and calmly praised.
"Mr.'s medicine is still the same as before, and it is much better than the one made by the Palace of Traditional Chinese Medicine."
Tonight, he should be able to sleep peacefully again.
This Mr. Baiyi always drank the medicine after the acupuncture, which always made him feel at ease.
He often suffers from restlessness and headaches, and this method is very helpful for him.
But if it is not really necessary, he will try not to invite Gu Nan into the palace.
It's not that he doesn't trust Gu Nan, he said at the time of the agreement that he only treats her as a doctor, and he can still do this.
It's just that Gu Nan is the counselor under Cao Cao's account after all, and if she contacts her too often, it may cause her some trouble.
After drinking half of the medicine, Liu Xie looked at Gu Nan, paused, and asked aloud.
"Sir, do you have any sugar?"
