Chapter 289: Return to the Plains Palace

Shimen Pass was captured, and Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun fled with their remnants.

Liu Xian did not wait for Gongsun Chan to return triumphantly, because Gongsun Chan was accustomed to the rhythm of chasing and beating the enemy. He led the army to chase after the remnants of Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun, and chased them all the way, and in Gongsun Zhan's dictionary, there seems to be no idiom that poor people don't chase.

This chase, Liu Xian really doesn't know when Gongsun Chan will chase him.

Gongsun Zhan did not forget Liu Xian, and left a deputy to invite Liu Xian to enter Shimen Pass.

Although Liu Xian set a fire to Qiu Liju's military supplies warehouse at Shimen Pass, the fire did not have much impact on other buildings in Shimen Pass. Even later, it did not cause much damage.

Gongsun Zhan left a military horse to guard Shimen Pass, and then continued to pursue Qiu Liju.

Liu Xian stayed at Shimen Pass for three days, but he still hadn't waited for Gongsun Zan to return to the army. Liu Xian estimated that with Gongsun Zhan's character, it would not be surprising that he really chased Qiu Liju for thousands of miles.

Liu Xian thought about it, so he no longer stayed here and waited for Gongsun Zan to come back.

In fact, there is nothing to wait for.

The transaction between Liu Xian and Gongsun Chan has been completed, and the money that Gongsun Chan originally wanted to deliver to Liu Xian for the purchase of winter clothes was also passed on to the Yi family. And the Yi family has now voted for Liu Xian, so, strictly speaking, it is equivalent to giving this batch of materials to Gongsun Zan for nothing.

Liu Xian not only provided Gongsun Zhan with these materials in vain, but also helped him capture Shimen Pass.

It seems that Liu Xian has not gained any benefits.

But in fact, Liu Xian still got a lot.

got the Yi family, in fact, the Yi family did deliver a sum of money to Liu Xian with real money, and this money was used by Liu Xian to trade war horses with Zhou Wu, the temporary guard of Youbeiping.

And the most important thing is that Liu Xian has won the friendship of Gongsun Zhan, at least, it is equivalent to making Gongsun Chan owe him a lot of favors.

In the future, if Liu Xian wants to deal with Gongsun Chan again, it should be better to speak.

In addition, this time he helped Gongsun Zan capture Shimen Pass and defeat Qiu Liju, also for himself. Now, Liu Xian doesn't have to worry that he will let Liu Yu know about selling two goods. In the future, Liu Xian can get a payment from Liu Yu's hands, and now, those goods are already in Xu Shang's hands, and at this time he should be going to those foreign tribes to trade with those foreign tribes.

If there is no accident, Liu Xian's trip to Youzhou this time, in the end, can really reap a fortune, is the money from the sale of this batch of goods to those foreign races. In this way, it can be regarded as a direct gain.

Xu Shang took these goods to trade with those aliens, and he didn't know when he would be able to complete the transaction smoothly, and it was estimated that it would not be completed in a short time. But it shouldn't take too long. Because this batch of clothes has not yet completed the transaction after the spring flowers bloom, then there is no need to trade again. When the weather is warm, who needs these warm clothes?

Liu Xian said goodbye to Gongsun Zhan's lieutenant general, and did not wait for Gongsun Zhan to return to his division. Take your own men and horses and return to Youbeiping.

Naturally, Liu Xian left a letter to Gongsun Zhan, explaining the reason why he went back first. This time the merchants in Youzhou, the commercial goods have been sold out, and it is time to go back, and there will be a chance to see you again in the future.

Returning to Youbeiping, Liu Xian completed the transaction of hundreds of war horses with Zhou Wu for the first time. In addition, he sent someone to meet Liu Yu, and by the way, he picked up Shan Yong, who was sent out with Liu Yu to escort the goods and returned to Jicheng together. Naturally, it is indispensable to remind Liu Yu that the goods have been delivered to Qiu Liju according to his requirements, so the payment owed to him must be paid. Now it can't be paid in a lump sum, but according to the original payment plan, in the next two or three years, Liu Yu will have to pay Liu Xian for all kinds of materials through conversion.

Liu Xian sent someone to tell Liu Yu about this, to see if Liu Yu would repay his debts, and to remind him not to forget his debts.

What's more, although the horses that transported the goods this time were old and weak, Liu Xian could not be thrown away in vain, which also had to be counted into Liu Yu's debts, and there would be more than 100 horses to deliver materials.

At this time, for Liu Yu, he was really depressed, and he almost didn't vomit blood.

Everything was originally planned. The things were also smoothly delivered to Qiu Liju's hands. He was also ready to set off to meet with Qiu Liju to discuss the details of their surrender to the Great Han.

But I didn't think about it, I just received the goods and delivered them to Qiu Liju, but then I received good news.

The good news said that Gongsun Zhan had broken through Shimen Pass and defeated Qiu Liju.

This is indeed good news, but it is just bad news for others, for Liu Yu.

For a while, his whole person was not good.

All his plans were in vain. What can be blamed for all this? Blame Gongsun Zhan? This is for sure, in his heart, he really hates to behead Gongsun Chan at this time. Such a disobedient subordinate didn't listen to his orders to withdraw the army, and he actually defeated Qiu Liju. So he just spent so much money, and finally showed his sincerity to Qiu Liju, and when the negotiations with Qiu Liju were developing in a good way, everything was suddenly over.

This is tantamount to causing him to bear a huge amount of debt in vain. And this debt, it is really difficult for him to repay it at this time.

And what made him vomit blood was that Gongsun Chan won the battle, and he had to show a happy look on the surface, not only to be happy, but also to reward Gongsun Chan.

He is the pastor of Youzhou, and the military horses under him have won the battle, can he, the highest administrator, not praise and reward the three armies?

Not only did he have to express it, but he also had to report such good news to the court as soon as possible, and ask the court for a reward for Gongsun Zhan.

Fortunately, the funds for rewarding the three armies do not need to be paid out of his own pocket, and they can be paid directly from the state capital.

Liu Yu may not be overwhelmed by debts, so he directly transferred more than 100 old and weak horses as compensation for the horses that transported the goods in the Liu Mansion caravan. After Gongsun Zhan won the battle, Liu Yu could also generously ask some big scholars for some reward materials, so it was still very easy to get more than 100 old and weak horses.

Regardless of Liu Yu's forced smile, the people sent by Liu Xian to Jicheng took those horses and Shan Yong back together.

On the Yi family's side, the head of the family, Yi Kai and Liu Xian met, and he thought that now he could take advantage of the fact that Gongsun Zhan was still chasing Qiu Liju and had not yet returned to the army, Liu Xian hurriedly took Yi Ji away, so that he could avoid trouble.

Liu Xian's relationship with Gongsun Chan should be regarded as a more delicate time. In general, Gongsun Chan probably won't turn his face with Liu Xian. However, if this is related to Yi Ji and the woman that Gongsun Chan wants, then it is difficult to say.

What's more, there are also some interests involved. Gongsun Chan will not give up the Yi family's huge interests and wealth.

As a hero, Liu Xian's friendship with him is sometimes simply not worth mentioning.

In this way, Liu Xian left some people, staying in Youbeiping and running his own industries in Jicheng, and the entire Liu Mansion caravan immediately set off and returned to Jizhou.

At this time, the news that Gongsun Chan had defeated Qiu Liju had spread to all places, and many people were talking about these things along the way. For ordinary people, this is actually a happy event.

After a year of turmoil, the people's minds have calmed down. What the people of Youzhou are most worried about is that those aliens will come in. So, basically, most of the people are panicked, and they are worried about how they will survive after the aliens come in.

Now that the aliens have been defeated, there is no need to worry about those aliens entering the customs to burn and loot. This is not long after the end of the New Year, and the weather is getting warmer soon, and the people have to start preparing for spring ploughing. Now that we have received good news, it is just right to give the people confidence and confidence to prepare for farming.

Otherwise, the people are worried about the arrival of foreign people, who can prepare for the spring plowing work with peace of mind? They were not thinking about spring ploughing, but about what they were going to do if aliens came in.

To put it mildly, just like the situation in Jicheng, some capable people have already left Jicheng, which is difficult for them to feel safe, and have gone to other places. The same is true for the people, if there are relatives and friends in other safe places, they will also leave Youzhou to go to defect.

Those who remained were some people who had no choice.

Of course, most of them must have stayed.

In fact, it is like the situation in Zhaojiacun, Zhaojiacun knew that he was threatened by the Yellow Turban Army, and knew that he would die. Won't they leave Zhaojia Village? It's not that they won't, it's not that they don't want to, it's that their ancestors have lived there for generations, and if they leave there, where can they go? How can we survive?

If it weren't for Liu Xian's ability to provide a place where they could stay, they would really not leave Zhaojia Village, even if Zhaojia Village was destroyed in the end, they would not leave.

Liu Xian returned from the right to the north and the south, and saw the situation of the people in many places along the way, and saw that they all seemed to have a hope of survival.

Seeing these circumstances, Liu Xian knew that he had done the right thing to help Gongsun Zan seize the city pass and defeat Qiu Liju at Shimen Pass.

Defeating a foreigner is completely different from accepting a foreigner's surrender. Directly defeating the aliens will make it easier to win the love of the people and boost the morale of the people to survive.

If, according to Liu Yu's plan, Qiu Liju's surrender is finally accepted, then there will be no change for the people, because the people will still worry about being harmed by those aliens. After all, over the years, Youzhou has indeed suffered from the infestation of those aliens.

This made Liu Xian understand that under the current situation, it was best to adopt a resolute attitude towards those aliens.

Liu Yu finally gave Gongsun Zan a misery in Youzhou, which is not unreasonable, because his policy will not be recognized and supported by the ordinary people in Youzhou.

may also be affected by Qiu Liju's defeat, when Liu Xian came to Youzhou, he occasionally encountered some horse thieves, and now when he returned, those horse thieves did not appear.

In this way, Liu Xian and his entourage returned to the plain palace of Liwu County very smoothly.

When Liu Xian first came to Liwu County, there was a lot of movement, and now when he comes back from Youzhou, the situation is similar.

However, after Liu Xian revealed his identity, the county defenders did not dare to make any more difficulties, and hurriedly opened the door to let Liu Xian's caravan enter the city.

Plains Palace.

This time, Ma Guiren did not go out to welcome Liu Xian back, but he was also waiting for Liu Xian.

When Liu Xian took Yi Ji and Huang Wudie into the hall of the main hall of the palace, Ma Guiren excitedly stepped forward and hugged Liu Xian.

"Good nephew, you really make my aunt worry to death. You say you have to go to those places of war, you kid. Bo Niang's people came back to report, you actually went to the barracks where the two armies were fighting, and challenged those fierce aliens, do you want Bo Niang's life? ”

Ma Guiren's eyes turned red with excitement, and big tears dripped down, and Liu Xian's shoulders were wet at once.

Liu Xian was really a little panicked, and hurriedly reassured: "Uncle, isn't my nephew okay?" The full beard and the full tail are back. ”

"You, you said that if you have a little bit of goodness, what do you let your aunt do? What are you going to do with our old Liu family? Ma Guiren was really a little afraid that Liu Xian would disappear if he let go, and hugged Liu Xian hard.

Well, sometimes, it's really hard for ordinary people to understand that kind of desperate panic.

Ma Guiren is a person who has been panicking for so many years. Women in this era often take the glory of their husband's family as their glory and the incense of their husband's family as their own responsibility.

In ancient times, how many women went through many hardships in order to preserve the incense and flesh of their husbands?

Ma Guiren has experienced so many years of panic and helplessness and pain, and suddenly discovered that her royal family still has blood relatives, which is a gift from God for her.

In her heart, Liu Xian is indeed all she has, her hope, the most important person in the world, the most precious and worthy of her cherishment.

She is really unwilling to let Liu Xian suffer the slightest injury, and she is not willing to let Liu Xian take a little risk.

"Uh...... Auntie, my nephew has grown up and knows what I'm doing. How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain? What's more, the nephew has the ability and confidence to face everything. So, really don't worry. Well, Auntie, and the guests......"

Liu Xian really couldn't bear the fact that this aunt was so nervous about herself. However, Liu Xian can understand, after all, in some memories of the original Liu Xian, his mother Liang was also extremely nervous and doting on the original Liu Xian.

However, Liu Xian felt that this was still a little different, after all, his mother was a mother, and no matter how doting she was, she would not feel anything about herself. But this horse nobleman ......

Liu Xian felt that her appearance really made him feel sudden, although Liu Xian knew that there was such a relative in this world, but this relative, speaking seriously, seemed to have nothing to do with himself. In Liu Xian's heart, at the beginning, he really didn't have a plan to recognize this so-called relative.

But after this recognition, Liu Xian realized that she really regarded herself as the closest and dearest person. Unreservedly, unconditionally pampered herself, unconditionally supported herself, and gave everything she had to herself. All of this is based on his own body, which is the blood relatives of the first emperor.

Seriously, Liu Xian really doesn't know how to describe this noble horse.

She is really good to herself.

But she looks so young and beautiful, Liu Xian can't bear it.
