Han Xuan's subordinates suffered heavy casualties, the Xiliang sergeants were extremely fierce, and the number of people was more than Han Xuan's army, and there were only more than 600 of the more than 1,000 elites brought by Han Xuan. In order to thank the soldiers for their desperate rescue, Han Xuan took out his own money bag and set up a banquet to entertain them.

Zhou Tai put the gun on the ground and supported his body with the barrel of the gun, Zhou Tai took off his armor, was weak, collapsed, and suddenly sat on the ground. Han Xuan hurriedly went over to help Zhou Tai up, Han Xuan touched Zhou Tai's back with his hand, and was shocked, the convex and concave cracks were clearly caused by knife and gun wounds.

Han Xuan touched Zhou Tai's back and burst into tears, Han Xuan personally took the wine and brought it to Zhou Tai.

Han Xuan asked Zhou Tai to take off his clothes, only to see that the skin and skin on Zhou Tai's back were like a knife, and they were all over his body. Han Xuan asked, "When did this injury occur?" ”

Zhou Tai replied: "This is when the lord was besieged by enemy soldiers, and a certain abandoned Li Dao and rushed into the enemy soldiers to save the lord and was wounded by the enemy soldiers. ”

Han Xuan handed the wine to Zhou Tai, let him drink it all, and pointed to an arrow wound and asked, Zhou Tai replied: "This arrow wound was caused by the lord when he was attacked by Vice Adjutant Guo Yan with a cold arrow. ”

Han Xuan poured another bottle of wine and handed it to Zhou Tai, pointing to a gunshot wound on his back and asking, Zhou Tai said: "This is the last general who was stabbed by the Xiliang spearmen who fought out of the siege of the Lord Protector." ”

Han Xuan choked up and said: "General Zhou Tai saved me twice, risking his life, dozens of swords, guns, arrows and guns, and the skin on his body was like a portrayal. I, Han Xuan, will treat the general with the grace of flesh and blood, and entrust the general with the heavy responsibility of soldiers and horses! Youping, I should share the glory and disgrace with you, and share weal and woe. ”

Han Xuan asked Zhou Tai about the wounds on his body one by one, and an injury made Zhou Tai drink wine. It didn't take long for Zhou Tai to get drunk.

Han Xuan asked people to look for Zhang Zhao again, only to see several Shadow Tiger Army members escorting him over, and he also looked embarrassed.

Han Xuan hurriedly rushed over and grabbed Zhang Zhao's hand and said, "I am very ashamed to let Zibu take the risk with me." ”

Zhang Zhao took a breath and said, "My lord, has Your Majesty ever rewarded you?" ”

Han Xuan nodded, and Zhang Zhao smiled: "I didn't run in vain!" ”

Han Xuan didn't understand why Zhang Zhao cared so much about the official position that Liu Xiefeng gave him, and Zhang Zhao explained: "My lord, although the princes have the chaos of taking their own official positions, they will eventually trespass. The official position conferred by the Son of Heaven is orthodox and justified. And the lord has been made a marquis, and the title can be hereditary for the descendants of the lord. ”

Han Xuan patted his head, only then did he remember the importance of the title, he had now become a minister of the imperial court.

"General Han, congratulations." A minister in a red and black official uniform walked over to Han Xuan and Zhang Zhao.

"Mr. Yuanchang, you are here too!" Han Xuan looked at the person who came happily, this person was Zhong Xuan.

When Han Xuan saw Zhong Xuan, the previous haze was swept away, and Zhang Zhao and Zhong Xuan were polite to each other. Zhong Xuan led them to a secluded place, and Zhong Xuan said, "Cao Cao and Dong Zhao have already discussed to take the Son of Heaven to Xu County. General Han, don't you intend to welcome the Son of Heaven? ”

Han Xuan looked at Zhong Xuan with a shocked expression, he knew that Cao Cao would definitely blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but how did Zhong Xuan know?

Zhang Zhao glanced at Han Xuan, Han Xuan coughed twice and said, "Ahem, Doctor Zhong." I want to ask the Son of Heaven to move to Changsha and then discuss the matter of moving the capital. Changsha is a long way away, and I am afraid that the Son of Heaven will not be able to travel around. Cao Gong wants to welcome the Son of Heaven to Xuchang, and we are inherently reluctant, and I don't know what the Son of Heaven thinks. Dr. Wangzhong proposed to the Son of Heaven to move the capital to Changsha. ”

Han Xuan wasn't sure if Zhong Xuan was testing him or really wanted to help him, so he said it very tactfully, looking at Zhong Xuan's face carefully, first slightly disappointed and then smiling.

Zhong Miao said with a smile: "You must tell the general's intentions to the heavens, as for whether this can be successful, it is unknown." ”

Cao Cao has been in power for nearly a month, and on the day of the court meeting, Cao Cao admonished: "Your Majesty, your own ministers and others repelled Li Guo and other thieves, and the supply of grain and grass in Luoyang has always been difficult to help." There is a shortage of food in the army, and the soldiers are unwilling to use their lives, if Li Guo and the two thieves come back, they will be in danger. According to the minister's opinion, His Majesty should move the capital to Xu County, and the minister will devote his strength to Yanzhou to protect His Majesty. ”

As soon as Cao Cao's proposal to move the capital was proposed, there was a lot of discussion in the court, and the ministers all pointed fingers at Cao Cao. Cao Cao glanced at them, and they didn't dare to stand up and speak.

Liu Du stepped forward to bow to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the general's words are reasonable. Luoyang was revolted by Dong thieves, the people were displaced, and the imperial court had no grain to collect. The minister thought that His Majesty should move the capital from the proposal, but the capital should not be moved to Xu, but Lingling. Lingling City has become a land of fish and rice under the rule of the ministers, the people are rich, and there are Jianghan barriers, Li Guo and other Xiliang iron riders are difficult to go south. ”

Han Xuan glanced at Liu Du, and said in his heart, you Liu Du really dare to say it, are you a member of the Han family?

At this time, General Wei Dong Cheng said: "Your Majesty has been displaced for a long time, and now that the situation in Luoyang has been decided, how can you move the capital again?" ”

Dong Chengyi said that many old ministers followed him and nodded yes, seeing that the ministers in the court had different opinions, Liu Xie hesitated.

Liu Xie glanced at Zhong Xuan, and Zhong Xuan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the old capital of Luoyang has been destroyed, and it may be difficult to rebuild it for a while. It is better to go to Changsha temporarily, one can eat nearby, and the other can rely on Liu Biao and General Han in Jingzhou...... Oh, and General Liu. ”

Liu Du glared at Han Xuan, and Han Xuan looked at him with a smile. The ministers began to discuss enthusiastically again, and Cao Cao suddenly stood up and said domineeringly: "Doctor Zhong's opinion is fallacious! Changsha Jingnan wilderness, Your Majesty's golden body, how can you set the capital in Changsha? And when His Majesty was pursued by Li Guo and other thieves, Liu Biaoke sent troops to rescue? And there are hemp and thieves in the north of Changsha, and there are mountains and more chaotic people in the south who do not obey the king, if Your Majesty goes, won't he just get out of the tiger's den and enter the wolf's den? ”

Han Xuan and Liu Du couldn't help but come out to refute, Liu Du glanced at Han Xuan: "You say ...... first"

Han Xuan snorted coldly and said, "The Great General belittled me so much about the land of Jingnan, could it be that he had personally traveled there?" The general said that there are people in Shanyue in Changsha, is there no Yellow Turban remnant rebellion under the rule of the general Yanzhou? ”

Han Xuan and Cao Cao argued fiercely, and even Liu Du spoke for him, because they didn't want Cao Cao to take Emperor Xian away alone.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the matter of moving the capital is a big matter, and we will discuss it slowly. That's all for today's pilgrimage! Liu Xie stretched out his hands and said to Cao Cao, Han Xuan and others.

"Retreat!" The little eunuch beside Liu Xie shouted. When Cao Cao returned to the house, he was furious and scolded: "Hmph! Han Xuan and Liu Du are just businessmen, and they dare to argue with my court. I'm going to capture them sooner or later! ”

The servant reported that Dong Zhao asked to see him, and Cao Cao asked Dong Zhao to come in to discuss, and told Dong Zhao about the obstruction of moving the capital to Xu County.

Dong Zhao said: "General, the generals in Luoyang are too mixed, I am afraid that except for Han Xuan and Liu Du, the rest of the generals will not obey. If a general wants to achieve great things, the only way to do it is to move the capital. Only by doing extraordinary things can we have extraordinary achievements. General Wangcao thought deeply, looked at the big picture, and made a decision as soon as possible. ”

Cao Cao had some concerns: "Han Xuan and Liu Du have few soldiers, so there is no need to worry. It's just that Yang Feng led the army to be stationed in Liang County, and I want to take the Son of Heaven to Xu County, for fear that he will come to obstruct him. ”

Dong Zhao suggested to Cao Cao: "The general can send an envoy to thank Yang Feng for the kindness of General Ru Zhendong before, so as to appease Yang Feng's heart, and then tell Yang Feng about the difficulty of providing grain to Luoyang." Let the Son of Heaven temporarily go to Luyang, near Xu County, to ensure the supply of grain and grass. Yang Feng has a brave and unscrupulous person, and he will definitely not be suspicious, and at that time, the general can welcome the Son of Heaven straight to Xu County. ”

Cao Cao acted according to the plan, and sure enough, he succeeded in welcoming the emperor to Luyang. Han Xuan and Liu Du hurried to Yang Feng's military camp, and Liu Du said: "General Yang, Cao Cao is trying to welcome the Son of Heaven to build the capital in Xu County, and the general is in charge. ”

Yang Feng suddenly realized, and led Xu Huang and his subordinate Bai Bojun to intercept it, and Han Xuan and Liu Du also led the army to intercept it. But when they arrived at Luyang, it was too late, and Emperor Xian had already been welcomed by Cao Cao on the way to Xu County.
