    The Imperial Palace in Yecheng issued an edict, which shocked almost everyone.

    "Have you heard? Liu Cong, the king of Han, is rebellious!"

    "Please lower your voice, how can you talk nonsense like this?"

    "How dare I talk nonsense? This is an edict issued by His Majesty the Emperor himself!"

    "I've also heard that the King of Han built the palace with evil intentions and treasonous ambitions!"

    "That's nonsense. Luoyang has become a ruin. If it hadn't been restored by the King of Han, where would the imperial capital still be?"

    "That's right, I think this must be Cao Cao's trick to discredit the King of Han!"

    "Only the King of Han is the best to the people!"

    "What ability does that emperor have? He fled from Luoyang to Chang'an, from Chang'an to Xuchang, and from Xuchang to Yecheng!"

    "He doesn't have the final say in the court now!"

    "We have just enthroned the King of Han, and now we are saying that the King of Han is rebellious. How can there be such a court where orders are changed overnight!"

    ¡­¡­

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together, whether it is the children of aristocratic families, officials, or common people, they are all talking about it in private.

    Cao Cao wanted to occupy the title of Dayi, and this time it may have had some effect. Some aristocratic families and scribes did respond.  But at the same time, the prestige of the Yecheng court was reduced to the lowest level, and the royal family was in turmoil.

    When people were looking forward to the response of the King of Han in Luoyang City, they were surprised to find that the King of Han Liu Cong seemed not to have heard the incident and ignored it at all.

    The various regiments under the command of the King of Han are still seizing the time to train. The Ministry of Industry is busy making weapons, the Ministry of Household organizes people to use their spare time to reclaim wasteland, and the major merchants are also busy doing their own business and have no free time to care about these.

    After the bank was established, merchants could travel lightly. Whenever they went to the areas under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty to buy anything, they only needed to bring banknotes. Because the bank was under the personal control of the Han Dynasty, these banknotes could definitely be exchanged for money.  Come on, who needs to carry bags of money?  And they all hope that the King of Han can unify the world as soon as possible and open banks to the thirteen states of Han Dynasty. By then, it will be more convenient to do business.

    When Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others led their armies to Nanzhong, Nanwang Menghuo had already occupied Yongchang County. Yongchang Prefect Wang and his wife died in the battle, and the other counties surrendered.

    Liu Bei had 10,000 troops under his command, but Meng Huo did not take him seriously. As a result, Zhuge Liang used a clever plan and captured him in one battle.

    Meng Huo refused to accept it, and Zhuge Liang suggested that Liu Bei release him and let Meng Huo reorganize his troops and fight again.

    The young and energetic Meng Huo entangled various cave masters in Nanzhong and led an army of more than 30,000 people to attack Yongchang.

    The two sides had been in confrontation for more than a month. The barbarian tribes had disputes and were defeated by Liu Bei's army. They fled into the mountains and forests of the south and were no longer able to rebel.

    Liu Bei rectified more than 20,000 surrendered troops, confiscated countless grain and grass, and then stationed in Yongchang County.

    "Kong Ming, we now have an army of thirty thousand, and they are all brave men. Can we send troops to build Ning?" In the prefecture, Liu Bei was in a good mood and his tone seemed very relaxed.

    "Lord, the time has not come yet!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and smiled.

    "Why hasn't the time come yet?"

    "You are now unknown!" Zhuge Liang shook his head, "Yong Kai, the prefect of Jianning, is from a wealthy family in Shu. This person is quite dissatisfied with Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, and secretly colludes with Zhu Bao, the prefect of Xianggang. Sooner or later, he will rebel.  At that time, we used the pretext of suppressing the rebellion to capture Jianning and Zanggao in one fell swoop. With the three counties in our possession, even if Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, wanted to drive us away, he could not do it. When there was a change in Shu, he  We can quickly reach Chengdu."

    "There has been a change in Shu?" Liu Bei frowned, "Kong Ming means"

    "Liu Zhang, King of Shu, took Ma Chao in, which is the reason for chaos!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan again, "If Ma Chao was willing to surrender and had already defected to Liu Cong, how could he choose the far side instead of the near? Obviously, he is an ambitious person with a goal  It¡¯s Yizhou!¡±

    "That's it! Then what should we do now?"

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????????????????????????marshaling horses, strengthening the troops, accumulating grass and gathering grain! As long as you have soldiers, horses, and grain, you can be in an invincible position!"

    "Okay, just follow Kong Ming!" Liu Bei smiled happily.

    "Report to your lord, Sun Qian wants to see you!" At this time, a soldier came in to report.

    "Gongyou is here, let him in!"

    "No!"

    "My lord my lord" Sun Qian ran in in a hurry, "Your Majesty has an edict!"

    "Your Majesty's edict"?Where?  Liu Bei asked urgently.

    "Our place is too remote. It has spread throughout the Han states. I wrote it down based on the rumors. That's the general content!" Sun Qian took out a piece of paper, which he compiled based on what the people and merchants said.  The contents of the edict were handed to Liu Bei.

    Liu Bei took it and looked at it carefully, his face immediately darkened!

    "This is really unreasonable!" Liu Bei suddenly slammed the table, "Liu Cong, how dare you do this, I will not forgive you!"

    "My Lord" Zhuge Liang asked, "This edict"

    "Kong Ming, look at it!"

    Zhuge Liang read it carefully.

    "The North Palace of Luoyang was directly built into the palace of the Han Dynasty, and Luoyang was also known as the Han Dynasty. This rebellious intention is clearly revealed!"

    "I am a clan member of the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty once respected me as your imperial uncle, but now I am far away in Nanzhong. I am unable to contribute to your Majesty's crusade against the rebels. This what should I do?" As he said, Liu Bei's  Tears flowed.

    "Don't worry, my lord. Your Majesty has issued an edict. Then there will be a large army to fight against the rebellion in the spring of next year at the latest. At that time, we will discuss with Liu Zhang to form a coalition and send troops to the Northern Expedition!"

    "Although I have the intention of the Northern Expedition, will the King of Shu agree?"

    "Don't worry, my lord, the general trend will be by then, and the King of Shu will definitely agree!"

    Chengdu, Prince Shu¡¯s Mansion.

    The Chinese, civil and military forces were noisy in the meeting hall, and Liu Zhang, the king of Shu, was upset.

    Liu Cong was canonized as the King of Han by His Majesty, and was called a hero of the Han Dynasty, the pride of the royal family. In the blink of an eye, Liu Cong was said to be treason, making Liu Zhang not sure how to evaluate him.

    Some of the civil and military personnel under his command advocated responding to His Majesty¡¯s edict and preparing to send troops.  Some people suggest that they should ignore it for now and wait and see what happens.  Others advocate forming an alliance with Liu Cong to jointly fight against Cao Cao in the north.

    "Report to your lord, Cao Cao's envoy Sima Yi wants to see you!" At this moment, a soldier came in to report.

    "Sima Yi, Cao Cao's envoy?" Liu Zhang frowned, "When did he come?"

    "I don't know, I may have arrived yesterday and stayed at the city posthouse!"

    "Let him in!"

    "No!"

    After the soldiers went out, they quickly brought Sima Yi in.

    Sima Yi has actually arrived in Chengdu for a few days. Not only did he not meet the King of Shu, but he also did not go to meet any courtiers. He was just waiting for an opportunity.

    The emperor's edict had already reached Chengdu. When Sima Yi learned that Liu Zhang had summoned all the civil and military officials, he immediately guessed what was going to be discussed, so he came to see the King of Shu.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
