Chapter 657: Arriving at Liyang
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
Hearing Xue Ying's muttering, Hongjian trembled with fright, pulled her hard, and asked in a low voice, "What are you talking nonsense?" Don't die! ”
Xue Ying also knew that she was speechless, lowered her head, and muttered, "What I said is right!" ”
Hongzhi glared at her and reprimanded, "You still say? ”
"I ......"
"What else?" With the words, Liu Xiu walked over with his hands behind his back.
The war in Wei County has ended, and Liu Xiu no longer wears armor, but wears a black civilian clothes. Seeing Liu Xiu coming, Xue Ying and Hongjian's bodies were shocked, and they hurriedly blessed themselves and said, "Your Majesty! ”
Liu Xiule glanced at the two of them and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about so mysterious?" ”
The red note cleared his throat and said, "Back to Your Majesty, the maid didn't say anything more." ”
Liu Xiu shrugged, pouted into the tent again, and asked, "Is Lihua awake?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, the noble man has woken up, and Xu Meiren is also there."
"Oh!" Liu Xiu nodded and walked into the tent.
As Liu Xiu walked in, Yin Lihua and Xu Xiling, who were talking in the tent, both got up and said, "Your Majesty! ”
Liu Xiu waved her hand to the two of them and said, "Sit down!" ”
After he sat down, he said, "The thieves of Wei County have all been pacified, and we can set off for Luoyang today." When I came here, I was in a hurry, but now when I go back, I can walk slowly, or I can take a tour of the mountains and play in the water. ”
When Yin Lihua and Xu Xiling heard this, they both looked happy.
Living in the Luoyang Palace, although it is very comfortable, there are palace maids and chamberlains to serve you in food, clothing, housing and transportation, but it is also very boring to live in the palace for a long time, and it is rare to have a chance to go out of the palace.
Xu Xiling asked, "How did Your Majesty arrange the trip back to Luoyang?" ”
Liu Xiu said: "I plan to go to Liyang first, and then go to Chaoge from Liyang and return to Luoyang." ”
Xu Xiling smiled and said excitedly: "The concubine heard that the scenery of Liyang is beautiful, like a fairyland on earth. ”
Yin Lihua continued: "Liyang's Daling Mountain is the place where Dayu controlled the water back then. Your Majesty, if we are passing by Liyang, we must go to Daling Mountain to have a look! ”
Liu Xiu nodded and said, "I also have this intention." ”
Seeing that Yin Lihua and Xu Xiling were satisfied with the itinerary they arranged, Liu Xiu finalized the itinerary. Liyang is located to the south of Huangze Lake, east of Chaoge, north of the Yellow River, near the junction of Jizhou and Yanzhou. Liyang is the most famous is the Da Ling Mountain, because Dayu is famous all over the world for controlling the water here, and the people are also happy to go to the Da Ling Mountain to play
。
When Liu Xiu led the Han army to Liyang, Liyang ordered to take the officials of the county government and go out of the city for ten miles to greet him.
Li Yang Ling looks like he is in his early thirties, his name is Kong Xu, he is not tall, his figure is also thin, and he feels weak, but Kong Xu was born in the army and is quite valued by the Cho period. You must know that Liyang is located at the junction of Jizhou and Yanzhou, and Yanzhou does not belong to the sphere of influence of the Luoyang Imperial Court
You must have the ability to lead troops into battle.
The county government officials headed by Kong Xu, after seeing Liu Xiu, knelt down one after another, bowed forward, and said in unison: "Weichen knocks to see Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Xiu walked out of the carriage, waved his hand to everyone, and said, "Everyone, please get up!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Kong Xu and the others got up one after another. Liu Xiu's gaze fell on Kong Xu, and asked with a smile, "Are you Kong County Commander?" ”
Liu Xiu had never seen Kong Xu, but he had heard Choshi mention this person, and Choshi praised Kong Xu very much, commenting that he was an all-rounder who could write and martial arts. Liu Xiu was still quite curious about Kong Xu, and now that he saw him in person, he was somewhat disappointed.
Kong Xu is not good-looking, his face is sallow, and his body is thin, and people who don't know him can see him and think that he is seriously ill. Liu Xiu can't be regarded as a person who judges people by their appearance, but he does have a good impression of people with a good image.
"Weichen Kongxu!" Hearing that Liu Xiu asked about himself, Kong Xu hurriedly bowed down and saluted.
"This time I went to Liyang, I have to stay for a few more days, and in the next few days, I am afraid that I will cause trouble to the Kong County Order."
Kong Xu hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty is tormenting Weichen!" Your Majesty can come to Liyang, it is the luck of Liyang, and it is the blessing of the people of Liyang! ”
Pretty good at talking! Liu Xiu smiled, turned around and asked Long Yuan to lead the horse, and he and Kong Xu rode together.
Liu Xiu rode forward and asked, "Kong County Order, how is the situation in Liyang now?" Kong Xu Zhengse said: "Before Liyang, suffered from thieves, all industries were wasted, and the people were not able to make a living, since His Majesty ascended the throne, he implemented moral administration and tax reduction in Wei County, and the people who fled from Liyang to avoid disasters have now mostly returned to their homes, and Liyang has gradually returned
Restore the prosperity of the past. Speaking of this, Kong Xu sighed sincerely: "This is Your Majesty's Shengming, for the benefit of Liyang, for the benefit of the world!" ”
Liu Xiu glanced at Kong Xu, smiled, and said, "Liyang is close to Yanzhou, can Liu Yongbu often attack Liyang?" ”
Kong Xu said: "Liu Yongjun has never attacked Liyang on a large scale, but small-scale harassment does occur from time to time, fortunately, there is a river in Liyang as a natural danger, and Liu Yongjun's attack cannot set off too much wind and waves." ”
Liu Xiu nodded and praised: "Kong County has made meritorious efforts to govern Liyang. ”
Kong Xu bowed and said: "Weichen doesn't dare to take credit. ”
Liu Xiu smiled and said, "Tomorrow, I plan to go to Da Ling Mountain." ”
Kong Xu's face was upright, and he said: "Weichen has asked people to repair the green altar on Da Ling Mountain, and Your Majesty can pay tribute to heaven and earth at the green altar!" ”
Liu Xiu's eyes flashed, and she was really impressed by Kong Xu. He asked with a smile: "The news of my coming to Liyang should have reached Liyang two days ago, right?" ”
"Exactly."
"Kong County's order only took two days to repair the green altar on the mountain?" Liu Xiu asked curiously.
Kong Xu said honestly: "A month ago, Weichen had already asked people to repair the Qingtan. ”
Liu Xiu calculated, a month ago, not long after he led the army to leave Luoyang. He smiled and asked, "Kong County's order is accurate, will I pass by Liyang?" ”
Kong Xu bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty came to Weijun to level the thieves, and the speed of the march is naturally as fast as possible, and it is unlikely to take the long road of Liyang, but after Your Majesty wins, when you return to Luoyang, you will probably pass through Liyang." ”
Liu Xiu couldn't help laughing out loud and asked, "Kong County Ling is sure that I will definitely be able to defeat the thief army?" ”
Kong Xu Zhengse said: "Your Majesty is a hero, once in Kunyang, with 3,000 soldiers defeated Wang Yi and Wang Xun's 400,000 reckless army, and now the five school thieves are just a mantis arm as a car in front of Your Majesty!" ”
Liu Xiu laughed, now he somewhat understood why Choshi praised Kong Xu. Kong Xu is very good at talking, and he is also very capable, very good at doing things, and he is indeed a talent.
Along the way, Liu Xiu and Kong Xu chatted while walking, and before they knew it, they arrived at Liyang City. When I entered the city gate, I raised my eyes and looked forward, and I saw that the streets were lined with people, and the crowds were surging, and I couldn't see the edge at a glance.
The Son of Heaven came to Liyang in person, and the people of Liyang naturally wanted to see the demeanor of the Son of Heaven. The people of Liyang gathered on the streets early, waiting for the honor guard of the Son of Heaven.
There were too many people on the streets, and even though there were officials and county soldiers to maintain order and martial law on both sides of the streets, the scene was still too chaotic.
Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Xiao looked at it, and all urged the horses to come to Liu Xiu's approach, and whispered: "Your Majesty, let's take a carriage into the city!" ”
Liu Xiu waved his hand and said disapprehantly: "It's okay." ”
Kong Xu continued: "Your Majesty, Weichen also thinks that it is good for Your Majesty to enter the city in a carriage. ”
"Oh?" "Recently, someone announced that cold iron had been found near Daling Mountain, and many people came after hearing the news, and now there are many and miscellaneous people in Liyang City, Your Majesty is still careful." There were so many onlookers in the city that no one could guarantee that there would be no assassins among them.
Even if only one Assassin was in the middle of the mix, firing a cold arrow would be enough to kill a person. If the Son of Heaven really has an accident in Liyang, there are three long and two short, and Kong Xu, who is the order of Liyang, can not afford it.
Liu Xiu looked at Long Yuan, then at Kong Xu, and finally nodded and said, "Okay!" I'm in a carriage! As he spoke, Liu Xiupiao dismounted and sat in the carriage.
Seeing Liu Xiuken entering the city by car, Long Yuan, Kong Xu and others were secretly relieved. Then they stood guard on both sides of the chariot and entered the city.
Seeing that the honor guard of the Son of Heaven had arrived, the people on the street knelt down and kowtowed, calling out to Your Majesty.
Liu Xiu lifted the curtain of the car window slightly and looked outside. Yin Lihua and Xu Xiling, who were also in the car, also came over.
Looking at the people kneeling in the dark on both sides of the street, Xu Xiling couldn't help but sigh: "Your Majesty's prestige in Liyang is very high!" ”
Liu Xiu smiled indifferently and said, "This situation has governed Wei County well. "Because of the good governance of the Choshi period, the people naturally put their merits on the head of him, the son of heaven.
Xu Xiling said with a smile: "Yao Taishou is certainly a thousand miles, but he also needs to be appreciated by Bole like His Majesty." ”
Liu Xiu was amused by her words, and her mood was a little more cheerful.
There were no accidents on the road, and Liu Xiu's carriage came smoothly to the house prepared by Kong Xu for Liu Xiu.
This mansion was originally the mansion of the scholars in the city, but the owner of the mansion had already fled from Liyang, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead outside, and the house had been idle.
Yu Linwei had already searched the house several times in advance to confirm that there were no problems.
The carriage stopped at the gate of the house, Liu Xiu, Yin Lihua, and Xu Xiling walked out of the carriage and looked at the porch of the house, which was very big and magnificent, and then the three of them walked into the house.
Kong Xu followed behind Liu Xiu and introduced the situation of the house to Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu didn't care who the owner of this mansion was, where was it now, he asked, "Just now the Kong County Order said, what happened to the cold iron near Da Ling Mountain?" ”
The so-called cold iron is actually meteoric iron, and in layman's terms, it is a meteorite after burning. When the meteorite passes through the atmosphere, it rubs against the air and burns, and finally only the unburned metal remains, and when it falls to the ground, it becomes the cold iron of the population. Hearing Liu Xiu ask about Han Tie, Kong Xu frowned slightly, and said: "Weichen doesn't know when this rumor started, but it has intensified, especially in the recent period, the number of people in Liyang City has surged, and the inn is almost full.
Many people sleep on the streets at night. ”
Liu Xiu asked curiously, "Did someone really pick up the cold iron?" Kong Xu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "As far as Wei Chen knows, no one has harvested cold iron yet. ”
