In the second year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the Mid-Autumn Festival, Luoyang. The sky was not yet bright, the sun had just emerged, and the city of Luoyang was already boiling. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the coronation ceremony, Wang Yun ordered people to rehearse several times, and the results were not bad, and Wang Yun was satisfied. From the outside, the flag fluttering on the Luoyang city wall, draped in red and hanging colors. The city is also a big red lantern carried at the door of the house, not to mention that the people of Luoyang have never seen such a lively scene since Emperor Ling, that is, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, has never seen such a scene since he ascended the throne.

I have to say that Liu Xie's kid is too grand, but also, anyway, it's not Liu Xie's own money that is spent, and he doesn't feel distressed. Just because the city was so grand inside and outside the city, Liu Xie also invited the princes of the world to participate in Liu Bei's coronation ceremony early. First, Liu Xie is still majestic in order to show the Han court, and secondly, he also wants to use the power of Liu Bei and others to warn the princes from all walks of life, telling them that my Han still has loyal ministers to protect them, and you must not act rashly with evil intentions.

After all, it was the emperor's personal order, and although some princes were extremely unhappy, now that the Han family had not perished, the emperor's face still had to be given. Most of the envoys sent by the princes were led by their generals or advisors, and some even came in person. Most of the envoys who came here participated in the battle of the princes of the Eighteen Roads against Dong, and the Luoyang they saw at that time was just a ruined capital burned by fire, dilapidated, and they couldn't bear to look at it directly! I was shocked when I came this time, I didn't expect that in just two years, Luoyang would become so large-scale and magnificent! Thinking about it along the way, I also heard that the people praised Liu Bei's goodness and funded more than one million dollars to rebuild Luoyang, they were all shocked at that time, more than one million dollars! Now that the war is raging, excluding military expenses under his lordship, there is only one million dollars left in the treasury, and some of them are not even yet. Liu Bei's previous crusade against Xianbei and the Xiongnu is known to the world, and it is known to the world that he wants to maintain the war with the Xiongnu and Xianbei while also vigorously funding the Son of Heaven to rebuild Luoyang, how rich is this Liu Bei's rule! Compared with his own father-in-law, he all had the idea of yearning.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it is also the day when the emperor's uncle Liu Bei was crowned king. Fifty miles outside the outskirts of the city alone, there were samurai guards armed with guns and halberds, and a group of court ministers led by Wang Yun were responsible for greeting the princes from all walks of life. Entering the city, you can see the coronation platform from afar, the surrounding fruit is noisy gongs and drums, flags are fluttering, and all the people are moving, and the whole lively scene has never been seen in a lifetime.

On the one hand, now the imperial capital of Luoyang has almost been forgotten by the world, and now the majesty has reappeared, and it has become so lively all of a sudden, and the people all over the city are chasing and watching, resulting in a blockage of the streets for a while. From the day before yesterday to today, the envoys of the princes from all walks of life have come to Luoyang one after another, and the Wanbang Post Station used to house the princes in Luoyang has been deserted for decades, and it has finally become lively in recent days.

Zhao Xu, Guan Yu and others are Liu Bei's generals, their own lords want to be crowned, naturally they can't be idle, Zhuge Liang, Jia Xu and others have to deal with the complicated affairs of the coronation ceremony, which is at the gate of Luoyang City all the way to the palace The task of greeting was naturally handed over to Zhao Xu and others.

After the envoys from all walks of life settled down in the post house, they watched the scenery of Luoyang from everywhere, and there were many people who congratulated each other in Luoyang City, and the road was often blocked. However, these envoys were not in a hurry, and looked at the situation in Luoyang everywhere, so that they could return to their lives after they returned.

It is precisely because Liu Xie invited the princes of the world to come, resulting in too many guests, and the banquet after the coronation had to be prepared a few days in advance, Luoyang chefs were not enough, so they invited all the well-known chefs from Sizhou, Bingzhou, and Yanzhou close to Luoyang, and set up more than 100 tables of various snacks and desserts at the gift registration office at the city gate.

This unprecedented banquet and grand scene, the envoys who came to congratulate him were smashing their tongues, and they all thought: Good fellow, how much gold and silver does this cost? However, more than half of the food, carpets, and splendid scenery do not cost Liu Xie's money, these are all sent by businessmen who are far away in Linzi, Qingzhou, and these businessmen have been respected and their business has developed greatly because of Zhao Xu and Liu Bei; Liu Bei is going to be crowned king, so he naturally wants to congratulate him.

Zhao Xu, Guan Yu and other generals were responsible for greeting and cooperating with the identity of the generals, so they were all wearing armor. Zhao Xu and Zhao Yun were responsible for greeting them at the city gate. Zhao Yun, as the commander of the Haolong Xuanjia Army, looks at the outfit: wearing a four-edged iron flying dragon helmet, wearing silver and white flying dragon armor, Haolong cloak is snow-white, majestic, and a good Changshan Zhao Zilong.

And Zhao Xu's dress is even more exaggerated, which is specially customized by Zhao Xu: the phoenix wings purple and gold crown on his head, wearing chain gold armor, hanging Qingzhou red brocade and hundred flower robes, wearing a delicate lion belt around his waist, and stepping down the lotus silk and cloud shoes; That's right, it's Sun Wukong dressed up. Zhao Xu and Zhao Yun were lined up on the left and right of the city gate, and there were twenty-four warriors with gold and silver spears on both sides of the back, all of whom were soldiers of the Haolong Xuanjia Army; Swinging to the gate of the city like this, it is majestic; Zhao Xu and Zhao Yun are even more heroic, and they are magnificent.

"Yangzhou Thorn Shi Sun Ce has arrived!"

Sun Ce? Why did he come too? Zhao Xu wondered for a while when he heard this, Sun Ce, this kid was still very arrogant when he was in the Tiger Prison! But now that Sun Jian has died in battle, Sun Ce's title of little overlord has also become famous, so he should have grown a lot! Seeing Shaofu leading to a young general, dignified and majestic, it was Sun Ce; Now the immaturity on Sun Ce's face has advanced, giving people a very mature feeling, although he is not very stable, but he still knows that after Sun Ce lost his father, he still grew a lot. On his right hand was followed by a young man, a lupine scarf, and a magnificent instrument; Zhao Xu secretly exclaimed: Could this be Zhou Yu?

Zhao Xu and Zhao Yun hurriedly stepped forward to greet each other, and Zhao Xu arched his hand and said: "General Yangzhou Musun is coming from afar, and he is missing from afar!" The name of Jiangdong's little overlord is vivid, and I hope the general will forgive me. ”

When he was in the Tiger Prison Pass, Sun Ce went out with Sun Jian, young and vigorous, and he didn't know how thick the sky was, and he provoked Zhao Xu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, and almost started to do it. Yes, Sun Ce originally saw Zhao Xu greeting him at the door, and he felt very embarrassed when he remembered what happened back then. Hearing Zhao Xu's words, he was slightly mocking, and suddenly felt embarrassed, but he still stepped forward and bowed: "Where! General Zhao Liao praised, Sun Ce is a junior, how dare he be arrogant. In the past few years, there were many offends, and I hope that General Haihan! ”

After Sun Ce lost his father, all thoughts were lost, fortunately Sun Jian's subordinates Huang Gai and others helped him, and Yuan Shu supported, in Yangzhou to fight Liu Xuan, Tai Shi Ci had already been accepted by Liu Bei, Liu Xuan's subordinates who were able to defeat Sun Ce, then Sun Ce was broken, and Liu Xuan was chased to the sea, Liu Xuan jumped into the sea in desperation to commit suicide, and Sun Ce led Yangzhou pastoral; Later, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and others rescued the Son of Heaven, and Liu Xie was happy to amnesty the world, although it was useless, but he had already recognized Sun Ce's identity as Yangzhou Mu. This time, Liu Xie personally wrote the book, Sun Ce listened to Zhou Yu's opinion, and by the way, he also wanted to resolve the matter with Zhao Xu, so he came in person.

"Bo Fu is exempt, please get up quickly! It's a guest from afar. It doesn't have to be so polite! I can't say it, Bo Fu is much more humble than back then! Zhao Xu picked up Sun Ce, looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but praise: "It is worthy of being called the little overlord!" There is the wind of the Father! ”

Zhao Xu's words obviously don't remember the grievances of the year, Sun Ce is also a bold person, seeing Zhao Xu like this, he is also bold, "General Zhao is really awarded, how can he compare to his father." After Sun Ce finished speaking, he thought of Sun Jian, and his expression darkened slightly.

"Bo Fu, don't you want to introduce this little brother next to you?" Zhao Xu saw Sun Ce's gloomy expression, knowing that he had aroused Sun Ce's sadness, and hurriedly changed the topic.

"Back to General Zhao, this is the sworn brother of the policy. The surname is Zhou Mingyu, the word is public, I heard that the imperial uncle was crowned, and I also want to come to see the heroic appearance of the imperial uncle! Sun Ce hurriedly introduced.

Zhou Yu stepped forward to play a series and said: "Xiao Ke Zhou Yu visited General Zhao Xu, General Zhao destroyed Yuan Shao, defeated Lu Bu and many other deeds, Yu Yuan is in Jiangdong, and it is also like thunder. Yu hereby congratulates the emperor's uncle on his coronation as king, and the two Zhao generals have been promoted. ”

Sure enough, this person is Zhou Yu! Boy! Others generally only congratulate Zhao Xu at most, and pat Zhao Xu's ass; This Zhou Yu is very powerful, while praising Zhao Xu, he also congratulated Liu Bei, and even congratulated Zhao Xu in advance. Naturally, Liu Bei is the king, and of course Zhao Xu has to be promoted and rewarded, but very few people will say this, so he couldn't help but look at Zhou Yu carefully and nodded incessantly. "Hmm! Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin are handsome and talented. ”

"General Zhao Liao Zan, Yu doesn't dare to stand it, Yu is just a rough countryman, how dare he say that he has a handsome talent. The general is really overrated! Zhou Yu called Zhao Xu again and said.

"Huh! Well, don't say anything outside the city, with a gift in your hand, you should be tired, let's get into the city! Otherwise, people will say that Zhao is rude! Zhao Xu quipped.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu saw that Zhao Xu was so generous and humorous, and they couldn't help but admire in their hearts, Zhao Xu's name, the princes of the world were all shocked when they heard it, but the real person in front of them was so unassuming, it was really amazing.

"Zilong, quickly take Bo Fu and this little brother Gongjin to register." Zhao Xu said towards Zhao Yun.

"Yes! Eldest brother. ”

"Zilong, this is Zhao Yun?" Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were all taken aback, Zhao Yun fought Bowangpo in blood, three in and three out, and bravely saved his brother's name to shock Jiangnan, although no one knew the inside story, but it was rumored that Yuan Shu wanted to avenge his brother Yuan Shao and attack Zhao Xu. Sun Ce also admired Zhao Yun.

"It turned out to be General Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong, General Zilong fought Bowangpo, Zhou Yu admired the name for a long time, but unfortunately he never saw it, and when he saw it today, he was fortunate to have three lives!" Although Zhou Yu is an extremely smart person and is good at attacking scheming, he had not paid attention to Zhao Yun before, and when Zhao Xu said that it was Zhao Yun, he was inevitably shocked.

Zhao Yun arched his hand and said, "Two please!" And the clouds lead the way. ”

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu glanced at each other, then saluted Zhao Xu, and followed Zhao Yun inward. However, knowing that the person in front of him who was almost the same age as himself was Zhao Zilong of the bloody battle Bowangpo, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu couldn't help but look at Zhao Yun a few more times behind their backs, looking at Zhao Yun's mighty posture, they couldn't help but praise in their hearts: It is really the tiger general of the world!

The big river goes east, the waves are exhausted, and the romantic characters of the ages! These two people are characters! Zhao Xu looked at the backs of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu leaving, and nodded, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, if they meet on the battlefield, they will be fierce enemies!
