At the end of September.
Yan Chuan met with the two business families.
Together, they formulated a business policy, which was to sell silk from the west and goods from the north.
In just two months, there were already some results, increasing the business tax of Beiliang by several times, and even allowing a large number of people to invest in manufacturing and animal husbandry.
At the same time, Yan Chuan also increased the mining of coal.
After several good policies were implemented, the lives of the people in Beiliang were thriving.
The rebellion in Liangzhou broke out early.
In this life, there was no rebellion after the Yellow Turbans were pacified. Instead, it was Yan Chuan who took action against the Qiang Hu beyond the Great Wall. In just a few months, more than ten Qiang Hu at the border of Beiliang were pacified. The aristocrats, despots, and commoners all looked at each other.
At the same time, the situation in the court changed again.
The vacant Sikong was replaced, and Zhang Wen stepped onto the stage of history.
Yuyang people, Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju joined forces with the Wuhuan to rebel at the border of Youzhou. They killed the prefects of Liaodong and Peiping. The Wuhuan Lieutenant General Ji Chou died in battle. Gongsun Du, who would become king in Liaodong in the future, appeared in Yan Chuan's field of vision for the first time.
Early April, the third year of Zhongping.
An uninvited guest had arrived at the Northern Liang Manor.
In the study room.
Yan Chuan looked at the person in front of him and said with a faint smile,"Clan member, protect the Wuhuan Lieutenant General!"
"Yan Jiang!"
The clan member bowed.
Yan Chuan's eyes were filled with curiosity as he asked,""Ji Chou died in battle. Shouldn't you be in Youzhou?”
"Resigned!"
The clan member took out the letter written by Lu Zhi from his bosom and said bitterly,"The Youzhou rebellion not only involves the conflict between the Wuhuan and the Great Han, but also the changes in the structure of the court. Great General He Jin's power is expanding, and Grand Marshal Cui Lie is unable to suppress it. The death of Ji Chou is more or less related to Great General.”
"Yes!"
Yan Chuan flipped through the letter.
In the letter, Lu Zhi sorted out all the matters in the court and also recounted the reason why the emperor kept delaying Yan Chuan's marriage.
He even begged Yan Chuan to take in the sect members.
"Yan Jiang!"
The member took a deep breath and said nervously,"The Emperor is already afraid of He Jin. His power has expanded to the extreme. A few days ago, the Xianbei invaded and the governor of Bingzhou, Zhang Yi, died in battle. Dong Zhuo, the governor of the four prefectures, made great contributions in Bingzhou. Even the Xianbei King, Ke Bineng, was defeated in a row. Cui Lie was forced to go to prison.”
"Swoosh!"
Xun Yu's eyes widened.
Xun You, who had just returned from Jiuquan, asked in surprise,""Cui Lie is in jail?"
"Yes, sir!"
the sect member said bitterly.
Xun You felt a chill in his heart." Originally, the Grand Commandant's Residence and the General's Residence were equally matched. Cui Lie was defeated in the Youzhou Riot, and Dong Zhuo won and He Jinqiang won. The Emperor deliberately sent Cui Lie to Luoyang Prison to prevent him from being harmed. Zhang Wen was the first Grand Commandant to go out. However, it should be the transition of this blank period. After that, Cui Lie would need to be restored to his original position, or someone else would have to replace him!”
"I need to go back to Luoyang!" Yan Chuan said in a deep voice as he closed the silk cloth.”
"Yan Jiang!"
Xun You shook his head.
Xun Yu said bluntly," General Yan, Great General He Jin is now very powerful. The Emperor has sent Grand Marshal Zhang Wen outside to protect him. If he enters the court now, I'm afraid he will be imprisoned. The factional struggles in the court are far more complicated than the battlefield!”
"Dong Zhuo has returned to court!"
The sect member sighed helplessly and said again.
"Da!"
"Da!"
"Da!"
Yan Chuan knocked on the table and said with a gloomy face," If this continues, I will be waiting for death in the Northern Liang. He Jin has too much power. Dong Zhuo returned to the court to fight for the position of the provincial governor of Bingzhou. With his achievements, the Emperor has to reward him. Once he is promoted to the provincial governor of Bingzhou, He Jin will become stronger. The one who lost in the Riot of Youzhou is not Cui Lie, Liu Yu, or Gongsun Zan, but the Emperor, Lu Zhi!”
"Hiss!"
The sect member gasped.
He finally understood why Lu Zhi asked him to resign and come to Northern Liang. He was here to ask for help!
Gongsun Zan was Lu Zhi's student, Cui Lie was a famous person in Youzhou, and Liu Yu was a relative of the Han clan.
Zhang Chun, Zhang Ju, and the Wuhuan rebellion had caused Tian Zi's faction to suffer heavy losses.
At the same time, Bingzhou had won a great victory, and Dong Zhuo had recommended Gongsun Du as the governor of Liaodong. He Jin and the Yuan family's momentum had soared, and if this continued, the Northern Liang would be affected sooner or later.
"Zilong, where are Fengxian and the others?" Yan Chuan frowned.”
Xun Yu said respectfully," Wen He, Zilong and the others have already arrived at Xiutu. Fengxian and Xu Rong are at Wushaoling. Tomorrow, all the troops can return to Guzang. In more than a year, Wusun in the Western Regions has fallen, and all the Qiang and Hu tribes outside the Northern Liang Great Wall have been wiped out. If General Yan enters the court, he will have enough achievements to protect himself!”
"Pa!"
Yan Chuan slammed his hand on the table and sneered,""There will be a power struggle this time, which will involve more than half of the court. If the emperor loses, Northern Liang will not exist. I want to see who dares to touch Northern Liang!”
Xun Yu lowered his eyebrows and said," If you want to revitalize the court, you must divide the military power. There is a struggle inside and outside the court. What the Emperor lacks in Luoyang is military power!”
"Oh?"
Yan Chuan's eyes lit up.
Xun Yu had given him a sure-win strategy.
The Grand Commandant's Residence was weak while the General's Residence was strong. As long as He Jin's military power was divided, they would definitely win. As for how to divide it, it would depend on Lu Zhi, Liu Hong, and him.
