Chapter 1044 Liu Ji, King of Shu (Part 2)


    Chapter 1042: King Liu Ji of Shu (Part 2)


    In March of the second year of Chuping (191), Liu Ji, the prefect of Ba County, was named king in Ba County, and the country was named "Shu".


    Liu Ji, the prefect of Ba County, was also called the king, and he was called the King of Shu.


    As soon as this news spread, it caused a stir, but more questions followed.


    First of all, although Dong Zhuo''s title of king has enfeoffed all the princes in the world, there are not many princes who really dare to accept his title, and most of them have no good ending at present.


    Wang Lang is almost destroyed by Sun Jian;


    Liu He was completely betrayed by his relatives and even had to rely on Gongsun Zan to barely confront Liu Che;


    Huang Chao may be the only prince who has become more and more prosperous after accepting the feudal throne.


    Since the risk of accepting the ban is so great, why did Liu Ji become king at such a critical moment?


    Secondly, since Liu Ji was the prefect of Ba County, the title of king Dong Zhuo granted him was naturally "King of Ba", but what Liu Ji called "King of Shu".


    Shu is still in Liu Yu''s hands. Liu Ji has not occupied Shu yet, but he dares to call him King of Shu. It can be seen that his ambitions for Shu have reached an unconcealed level. Are you not afraid of attracting Liu Yan''s attack?


    Finally, not being able to claim to a king according to the edict of the king is like calling a king without authorization, which is basically not much different from rebellion.


    As a relative of the Han Dynasty, Liu Ji is in great shape now. Is it necessary to take such a big risk and force himself to become king?


    In short, from which point of view, Liu Ji’s claim to be king is revealed, which is really unpredictable.


    But the news that followed shocked everyone.


    The young emperor Liu Bian did not die at the hands of Dong Zhuo, but was rescued by Liu Ji in time. Liu Bian also proved Liu Ji''s true identity and confirmed Liu Ji''s true identity.


    It turns out that Liu Ji was actually the eldest son of the late emperor, the half-brother of the young emperor Liu Bin and the young emperor Liu Xie.


    This news shocked all the princes in the world. No one expected that Liu Hong, the foolish monarch, would secretly hide a son and pave the way for this son.


    Liu Ji''s edict to be crowned with the king did not come from Dong Zhuo''s goal of being crowned with the king, but the last edict left by the late emperor Liu Hong.


    The edict in Liu Ji''s hand that covered the jade seal was naturally much more legal than Dong Zhuo''s edict. With his noble status as the eldest son of the late emperor, it is completely reasonable to be king, and the princes could not find any fault at all.


    However, although other princes cannot find fault, it does not mean that Liu Yan will remain indifferent. After all, Shu is Liu Yan''s territory, and Liu Ji dares to be the King of Shu without occupying Shu. This is simply a rhythm of breaking apart.


    But later people learned that Liu Yan had died of illness, and after his son Liu Yu inherited his throne, he was defeated by a leader of a barbarian tribe named Zhu Rongchi (Chiyou).


    Liu Yu hoped that Liu Ji would help him fight off the barbarians, but he was too late to hold his thighs. How could he turn against Liu Ji completely because of a king?


    At this point, people finally realized that Liu Ji called the king because of the right time, place, and people gathering together, and he would not take any risks at all!


    After reaching this conclusion, most of the princes felt a little sour and were extremely envious and jealous of Liu Ji.


    Who wouldn''t want to be king? But the risk is too great, and if you accidentally attract all directions to attack.


    But Liu Ji, relying on his background, easily took up the throne with a foolish father, which made other princes not jealous, but could not do anything to the other party.


    Zhuti County, Liu Yu’s grand tent.


    “Liu Ji…”


    Liu Yu''s angry roar resounded throughout the tent.


    The reason why Liu Yu, who has always been calm and composed, was naturally stimulated by Liu Ji''s actions to be called King of Shu. As the governor of Yizhou and the lord of Shu, Liu Ji robbed the title of King of Shu, which made Liu Yu not angry.


    You, Liu Ji, can clearly be called King of Ba, but you just call King of Shu. Don’t you know that Shu is not yours?


    Although Liu Ji made an excuse and said that it was sealed by the late emperor in advance, in Liu Yu''s opinion, Liu Ji did it on purpose.


    Liu Ji was too lazy to cover up even though he was too lazy to cover up, thinking that sooner or later he would seize Shu territory from him, so what if he was not allowed to call him King of Shu in advance?


    This is a very shameful and humiliating for Liu Yu. No matter how angry Liu Yu is, he can''t do anything to Liu Ji at this time. After all, he still has to rely on Liu Ji to deal with Chi You, so Liu Yu must bear this tone no matter how unhappy Liu Yu is.


    Liu Yu''s eyes were filled with cold light and he said with a sinister look: "Liu Ji, let''s take a look."


    ————


    Luoyang.


    After Qin Hao forced Li Xiuning to stay for several days, Li Xiuning still saw the clues.


    "Qin Hao, what are you hiding from me?" Li Xiuning asked.


    Qin Hao smiled indifferently and said, "You''re thinking too much."


    "Then why don''t you let me go?"


    "Walk?"


    Qin Hao''s eyes became unrestrained, and he looked at Li Xiuning unscrupulously, and said with a wicked smile: "Why do you want to let you go? You are my spoils!"


    Li Xiuning''s face turned red when she heard this. She glared at Qin Hao fiercely and turned her head away. However, Qin Hao was relieved when he saw this.


    "Oh, it''s only a day to hide it."


    A trace of complexity flashed in Qin Hao''s eyes, and he lowered his voice and said, "If possible, I hope you will never know this bad news."


    Although Li Xiuning is not Qin Hao''s wife and concubine, the two are married after all, and Qin Hao is really ruthless in dealing with his own women, and even wants to compensate Li Xiuning, so he has not killed Li Shimin until now.


    Qin Hao is definitely not a soft-hearted person, but now he has become a little polite, which makes Qin Hao feel a little strange because this is not his style at all.


    Qin Hao couldn''t think of the reason after thinking about it. In the end, it could only be attributed to the fact that he had been holding it in for too long this year, so he easily revealed his feelings for Li Xiuning.


    "Qin Hao, in a few days, Wannian, Guiying, Qingyi and others will arrive in Luoyang with their children. Then you will become your original self." Qin Haozi said to himself in his heart.


    After the Nanxiang Battle, the Women''s Detachment immediately protected Liu Xie, Jia Xu, and Qin Hao''s children to Luoyang. In another five or six days, they might be there.


    Qin Hao transferred the Women''s Detachment to Luoyang, in fact, mainly to protect the Women''s Detachment. After all, even he felt that it was a bit cruel for women to go to the battlefield, but the whole Women''s Detachment wanted to prove himself.


    In order to make these female soldiers feel that they were not looked down upon, Qin Hao decided to let the Women''s Army maintain public order in Luoyang and the surrounding areas, and this would save 5,000 troops to be used in other aspects.


    In addition, recruiting female soldiers is much more difficult than male soldiers, and the Luoyang family was slaughtered not long ago, and the large number of women, children and women left behind can become the source of the Women''s Detachment Army.
