Mu Jing wanted to bury his father Mushan for the whole country, and kept filial piety in front of the spirit for seven days, this news spread through various channels, and soon spread all over the land of Guanzhong.

"Seven days of filial piety?"

When the water was closed, Yuan Shao stood, looked at the direction of the capital, and said with a sneer: "He has the guts, the fall of this capital is imminent, is it possible that he thinks we can't get in?" ”

"Keeping filial piety for seven days is filial piety!"

Cao Cao stood beside him, indifferent: "Mu Longtu can be filial piety for his father at such a critical time, this is his filial piety, if we attack the capital at this moment, it is to prevent filial piety, and reputation, it is not good for us!" ”

"Why don't we just sit here and wait for seven days?"

Yuan Shu's eyes were hazy.

"These seven days are not only the deadline he gave, but also the time for us to breathe a sigh of relief!" Cao Cao said softly: "Mulong Tu always wants to break through, with our vitality not recovered now, if we resist it, I am afraid that the casualties will be huge!" ”

"The Mu clan still has 100,000 elites, and it is indeed difficult to fight!"

Yuan Shao had to admit this.

"Can you say that some of the Mu clan generals will be lowered?" Yuan Shu's soft voice spoke, he didn't just think so, but he had already done it, but the lobbyist he sent out never returned.

"Don't think about it!"

Cao Cao shook his head: "The death of Mu Shan, it has been a while, the news has already spread out, under the command of the Mu family, those who should have left, have already left, and now they are still by Mu Longtu's side, all of them are diehard loyalists of the Mu family, they will not betray at this time!" ”

"I didn't expect that by now, there are still so many die-hard people around Mu Longtu!"

Yuan Shao was quite envious.

"Give him seven days, it's okay with us, and it also gives us a time to arrange, this time, no matter what, Mu Longtu must not be allowed to escape!" Cao Cao's face was solemn: "This fang is more dangerous than his father, if he is allowed to escape, we may not be able to sleep and eat in the future!" ”

"That's true!"

Everyone nodded.

"The east is Bishui Pass, our main force is here, they must not break through, there are Jiangdong Army and Yuzhou Army in the south, it is also difficult to enter the army, in the west, the Xiliang Army coerced King Chen Liuwang to go south to Chang'an, and they must be strictly defended to the west, and they can't break through!"

Cao Cao said in a deep voice: "Only the north!" ”

"North?"

Yuan Shao squinted: "Now there are only the Shangdang Army and the remnants of Youzhou in the north!" ”

"The Shangdang army can't stop them, but it's the Youzhou army!" Cao Cao didn't forget Liu Bei, who he had always wanted to recruit, and the two fierce generals under his command: "Although Gongsun Chan died in battle, the Youzhou army still has the main force, and Liu Xuande is better than Gongsun Zhan, and the most important thing is that Liu Xuande has two fierce generals under Yu Zhang Fei, and the only thing missing now is that it is justified!" ”

"Justified?"

Yuan Shao understood: "Give Liu Bei a name to command the Youzhou army?" ”

"That's right!"

Cao Cao actually didn't want Liu Bei to rise to power, but compared to besieging and killing Mu Longtu, everything else could be left to him, although he looked down on Liu Bei, he didn't think that Liu Bei could gain power in a short period of time.

"It's better to make Liu Bei the general of Youzhou in the name of the imperial court!"

This is a miscellaneous general.

It's like Sun Jian's broken general.

Nominally.

"I'll see it!"

Yuan Shu also nodded.

After the resolution of the three people, it can be regarded as passed by the coalition forces.

The Kwantung Coalition Army, which gathered dozens of princes and summarized most of the forces in the world, the reward issued here is definitely comparable to the holy decree issued by Liu Xie, the pseudo-emperor of Chang'an.

……

……

The capital city of Luoyang.

During the seven days of pastoral piety, it was very calm.

Whether it is the Western Liang Army, the Kwantung Coalition Army, or even the Jiangdong Army, which has already finished the capital, will not attack the capital at this time.

In this era, filial piety still carries a lot of weight.

On the seventh day, Makiyama was buried.

Mu 100,000 personally sent the funeral with an army.

In the northern suburbs of Luoyang, under the mountain, among a beautiful mountain peak, the tomb of the Han Xiangguo Mushan was established.

Mu Jing stood in front of the grave and looked at the tombstone peacefully.

"Lord, I found a mysterious place, and in the imperial tomb, I picked up the remains of the Empress Dowager He and buried them together, only I know the location!" Jiang Lu stood aside peacefully and said in a low voice.

"You don't have an inscription, the most important thing is that the environment must be good, private enough, and not discovered by anyone!"

Mu Jing said calmly: "They can't sleep together in life, and they can't die together, this is the only thing I can do for him as a son!" ”

In front of me is a mound of clothes.

Luoyang has to give up after all.

Mushan is a thief, and it is not an exaggeration to whip the corpse, once the coalition forces break through Luoyang and dig up the grave and whip the corpse, it is a normal thing, Mujing naturally will not make such a mistake, so he set up a clothed mound, and then set up another grave.

And in order to complete Mu Shan's obsession during his lifetime, Mu Jing did not hesitate to break open the imperial mausoleum, and took out the Empress Dowager He, who had been buried with Emperor Ling, and buried them together.

As a son, no matter whether it is wrong or wrong, he must fulfill the last filial piety for his father.

"Lord, seven days have passed, and the Kwantung Coalition Army is about to attack!"

Xi Zhicai walked up from behind and said in a low voice.

Mu Jing raised his head and looked at the blue sky and white clouds: "It's time for us to leave too!" ”

He took a deep breath and said: "Zhicai, send me an announcement to go out, at noon the day after tomorrow, I will pay a crown ceremony, inherit my father's Marquis of Ming, and welcome everyone to come to the capital to watch the ceremony!" ”

"No!"

Xi Zhicai's eyes lit up, and he bowed and nodded.

……

Returning to Luoyang, Mu Jing dragged off his plain robe, changed into a white Confucian robe, and began his last busyness.

In the capital, he needs to explain a lot of things.

The first to see was the shopkeepers of Jingping Commercial Bank.

The capital is in turmoil, but the chaos is not Jingping Commercial Bank, the cunning rabbit three caves, Zhang Heng, the shopkeeper of Jingping Commercial Bank, has long anticipated the danger, and hid at the beginning, and only after Mu Jing returned, did he begin to emerge.

However, there was a turmoil, and the foundation of Jingping Commercial Bank in the capital for several years was completely destroyed.

"Sit down, sit!"

Mu Jing knelt on the throne, took a sip of tea, looked at a few apprehensive shopkeepers of Jingping Commercial Bank, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry so much, even if you accompany the funeral, I won't let you accompany the funeral!" ”

It is normal for businessmen to pursue profit and forget their righteousness.

Now that the Mu clan is in such a situation, Jingping Commercial Bank has lost its support, and they will naturally be worried, and at this time, they will not tie up Mu Jing to really Luoyang City.

"Big shopkeeper, we ......"

Zhang Heng didn't know what to say, over the years, they followed Mu Jing and walked out of Nanyang step by step, so that the profession of businessman gradually began to have a look, but in fact, he didn't expect that Mu Shi fell so quickly.

"Needless to say!"

Mu Jing shook his head: "Today, I will resign from the position of the chief treasurer of Jingping Commercial Bank, and Jingping Commercial Bank will have nothing to do with my Mulong Tu in the future." ”

"The big shopkeeper?"

The shopkeepers stood up.

Zhang Heng's face was red, he gritted his teeth, and said: "Big shopkeeper, Jingping Commercial Bank was established by you at the beginning, and I will live and die with you!" ”

Although businessmen chase profits, they cannot be so blatant and treacherous.

"I'm not being humble, I'm not trying to test you!" Mu Jing waved his hand, shook his head, asked them to sit down, and then said: "The fate of my Mu clan is our own fault, and we can't blame anyone, whether I can kill it in the end is still unknown, there is no need for more people to accompany me Mu Longtu!" ”

"But......" Xu Lin's eyes were red, compared to the three giants of Jingping, he was the least like a businessman, and he wanted to keep this friendship even more.

"Don't say it, listen to me!"

Mu Jing interrupted him and said: "Jingping Commercial Bank will definitely not be able to use this name in the future, the commercial bank is too large and eye-catching, and it will also be split, I am now a criminal of public anger, anyone who has anything to do with me will be hit, I can't protect you, Jingping Commercial Bank has finally come to this point, it has the foundation of Nanyang, and has established many strongholds above Guanzhong, monopolizing most of the grain and salt industry, even if the general princes want to move you, they can't help you, you already have capital to fight against those in power, The important thing is that you don't get too high-profile and don't get involved with me! ”

"I have a word of warning to you!"

Mu Jing looked at their faces: "It is imperative for Jingping Firm to split, so that we can survive the crisis, but the strength of businessmen is weak after all, if you can't unite and assist each other secretly, you will eventually be eaten in the future, so even if Jingping Firm is split on the surface, you must unite together in order to keep your own status and wealth!" ”

This is his sincere exhortation.

He can't make the decision to drag Jingping Commercial Bank to die together, so show them a way to live.

"The big shopkeeper, we are all Jingping merchants, and I don't want to give up the big shopkeeper!" The shopkeepers were ashamed in their hearts, they themselves were a little apprehensive, they really wanted to abandon Jingping Commercial Bank, and they were ready to let Mu Jing scold, but they didn't expect that Mu Jing was still thinking about them at this moment, and they couldn't be moved.

"There is no need for this, you should leave as soon as possible, while we have not started the war yet, leave the capital as soon as possible, once we fight with the surrounding soldiers and horses, Luoyang will be destroyed!"

Mu Jing waved his hand.

Since he started the road of Jingping Commercial Bank, he will personally end the future of Jingping Commercial Bank.

"Today's thing, is we owe the big shopkeeper, the big shopkeeper will always be the big shopkeeper of my Jingping firm, no matter what happens in the future, even if the name of Jingping firm can never be kept, my Zhang Heng's Zhang family will always be Jingping merchants, always the same, I believe that the big shopkeeper can kill out, can make a comeback, as long as the big shopkeeper comes to a letter in the future, I will go to the family!"

Zhang Heng has been coordinating Jingping Commercial Bank for many years, and his actions are very decisive, but now, it is useless for him to mourn, and there is not too much indecision, he took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed his hand to Mujing.

It's a promise.

"So do we!"

All the businessmen said one after another.

"The big shopkeeper, I know that now we can't help the big shopkeeper if we stay, but I also know that the big shopkeeper's soldiers and horses are short of food, in the capital, we have 50,000 stone grain, when the Xiliang army went south, we searched our granary and took about 20,000 stones, but there are still 30,000 stones hidden by our Jingping Commercial Bank, this is what I gave to the big shopkeeper, I hope to help the big shopkeeper!"

Zhang Heng then knelt down and saluted: "Heng is here to congratulate the big shopkeeper, win the victory, and break out of the encirclement!" ”

"We congratulate the big treasurer, the victory, and break out of the encirclement!"

The shopkeepers said with tears in their eyes.
