Chapter 174 What's the point of embarrassing a woman?
Pei Qing knew that Liu Bei was famous for being able to make trouble, and of course he would not allow him to stay in the Central Plains. So after thinking about it, it would be better to send him to the frontier, so he appointed Liu Bei as the governor of Jiaozhou. On the one hand, this would be used to restrain Liu Yan, the governor of Yizhou, who had already become the de facto independent, and on the other hand, it could also restrain the Jiangdong Sun Group, because he could clearly see that the Jiangdong Sun Family is expanding rapidly and will soon unify the entire Jiangdong. Once Liu Bei becomes the governor of Jiaozhou, he will become a threat to Liu Yan, Liu Biao and Jiangdong Sun Family at the same time.
Although Liu Yan would die soon, if Liu Zhang ascended the throne, Liu Bei would be able to plot against Yizhou, but Pei Qing had another idea. He would find a way to make Liu Yan's second son Liu Dan "escape" back. Liu Dan's brother Liu Fan had been killed by Li Jue, so he is now the eldest son of the family. Once he fled back to Yizhou, he would definitely be the heir of Yizhou Mu. Even if Liu Dan is bad, he would be stronger than Liu Zhang? I believe that with Liu Dan, Liu Bei's journey to enter Yizhou will not be so easy. When he finally took Yizhou, he probably should have sharpened his knife.
When Liu Bei heard about his appointment, he was very surprised. He was born in a wild family and never knew what hardship was. As long as he could give himself a chance, he must find a way to achieve something. Although the emperor also knew that the people in Jiaozhou were fierce, the tough people were more conducive to him to build an elite army. So Liu Bei was very surprised and unexpectedly expressed his gratitude to Pei Qing for help, without knowing that he would face the attack of three powerful enemies soon.
"I finally arranged everything. I feel a little embarrassed to see Liu Bei thanking me so much." Looking at Liu Bei's departure, who was full of gratitude for him, Pei Qing laughed secretly. If Liu Bei knew the truth at this time, I really don't know if he would be in a hurry to jump?
"It's a pity that the fierce generals like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun were taken away by him. These are three of the Five Tiger Generals of Shu Han, who missed me. However, as long as Liu Bei is here, I'm afraid no one can take these three generals from him, right?" Although Pei Qing felt regretful, he knew that this did not belong to him at all. Anyway, he had secretly collected the genes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. If it really doesn't work, it would be a match.
Just as Pei Qing continued to think about what happened next, he suddenly saw Xu Chu running to him and said, "Lord, it's not good. I heard that some ministers in the court were discussing the execution of Weiyang Lord Dong Bai. Now they have surrounded the palace where Weiyang Lord lives, which is the one where you kidnapped the princess, and are discussing how to kill Weiyang Lord. Even the emperor's persuasion is useless."
"What? This group of officials is really good. When the Xiliang Army was there, they didn't dare to say a single fart, but now the Xiliang Army has left, and they actually bullied a weak woman. What crime did Xiaobai commit? If it weren't for her, how could the princess have time to escape? Let's go and enter the palace with me. I should argue with them... Wait, what did I mean by kidnapping the princess? Zhongkang, we must clearly distinguish this sentence. This food can be eaten randomly, but we must never say anything."
"No, I will understand." Xu Chu forced his laughter. He had never seen Pei Qing look like he was anxious to distinguish.
"It seems that the lord really cares about this woman very much, but I really don't understand. What's the use of having such a woman? She can't carry her shoulders, can't lift her hands, can't help but be weak. How good is my woman? She can work hard and have children."
Xu Chu shook his head, looking puzzled, but he didn't dare to say this. He should joke in moderation, not too much, after all, the other party is his lord.
Xu Chu followed Pei Qing and came to the palace with great pride. Before he could enter the palace where Dong Bai was, someone heard a loud shout: "This woman is Dong Zhuo's granddaughter. Who is Dong Zhuo? Is it necessary to say? His descendants shouldn't exist in this world, so what else can hesitate to kill her?"
Pei Qing didn't say much when he heard this, and broke into the hall directly, and said with a smile: "My husband, this woman is just a slave taken by Princess Wannian. Do you need to target her like this? The princess is not here now, and I dare not. If you are not afraid of the princess's blame, then deal with her. You must be clear that she is Your Majesty's only sister. Even the late emperor is very arrogant to her. If you get angry, don't say it's me, even Your Majesty may not be able to bear it."
"This..." After hearing Pei Qing's words, the ministers in the hall hesitated. The emperor was the most noble person of the Han Dynasty. Although the royal family was in decline now, they still dared not provoke them. Pei Qing is a newcomer who is now in military and political power. He is also the prince with great military achievements and the most powerful strength in the world. Neither of these two people can afford to offend either of them. What's more, behind this girl named Dong, there is an existence that even two men dare not provoke. Do they dare to provoke such an existence?
So all the officials were timid, and no one dared to mention killing Dong Bai again, one of the officials said flatteringly: "It turns out that the princess treats her as a maid. There is no problem. Dong Zhuo once showed his power and was arrogant, but now his granddaughter is used to be a maid. If he knows about the fountain, he should regret his behavior at the beginning? The princess did the right thing, so he should slap this girl hard and let her repay the debt her grandfather had owed...."
However, Pei Qing suddenly shouted loudly: "Enough! Dong Zhuo is Dong Zhuo, she is her. The two are not comparable. Although she is Dong Zhuo's granddaughter, she never does evil in her life. Instead, because she prevents Li Jue and Guo Si from killing innocent people indiscriminately, many people can survive. The princess was able to leave Chang'an thanks to her secret help. In addition, Guo Si plundered all officials. At that time, she personally went to Guo Si's camp and asked Guo Si to give you a better treatment. Think about it, although you were in Guo Si's military camp, although you were unable to move freely, how hard did you have ever suffered?
Chu? This is all her credit. Let’s not talk about the old saying that the crime is not as good as the master. Just because she has helped you so much, you shouldn’t treat her like this. So many officials of the dynasty actually bullied a weak woman who helped you. Are you embarrassed? Why didn’t you see you so righteous in front of Dong Zhuo and Li Jue Guo Si? As officials of the court, you don’t do serious business and make things difficult for a little girl here. Do you think your affairs are too light? Why don’t you hurry up and do serious business? Do you have to ask someone to carry a sedan chair and carry you all into the government?”
Pei Qing's words immediately made these officials have nothing to say, and they dared not say anything. After all, they had experienced military personnel like Dong Zhuo and Li Jue and Guo Si interfering in politics before. They deeply understood that these people would use their knives when they disagree. If their heads were cracked because of this, they would be really unjustly killed.
