Chapter 529: Chang'an Shock
Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!
The side has successively pacified many rebel armies such as Qingli, Tongma, Gaohu, Chonglian, Wuxiao, Youlai, Dagun, and Wuman, which has dealt a great blow to the arrogance of the Hebei rebel army, and the situation in Hebei has gradually stabilized
The generals again began to organize their persuasion. If Liu Xiu is not the emperor, let alone seeking the world, even if they occupy Hebei, they are not rightly named and unreasonable. Only Liu Xiu is the emperor, and you are the Son of Heaven, so from now on, Liu Xiu said that whoever is a thief is a thief, where Liu Xiu points to, he
You can play where you can.
But what's worse is that Liu Xiu has always been very reluctant to be the emperor, at least so far, Liu Xiu has not shown any ambition to be the emperor, nor has he made any preparations in this regard, which makes everyone below anxious.
In the past, they counted on Zhu You to persuade them to advance, but they repeatedly failed to do so, but this time they changed their representatives and asked Ma Wu to take the lead in persuading them, but the result was still fruitless, and they were sent out of the camp by Liu Xiu.
After this incident, the Han army led by Liu Xiu continued south, entering Zhongshan in Jizhou from Youzhou. When they arrived in Zhongshan County, the Han generals once again launched a large-scale persuasion.
The generals came to Liu Xiu's tent together. Seeing such a large group of people coming in, Liu Xiu was stunned and looked around at everyone in puzzlement. Wu Han took a step forward and said loudly: "Wang Mang usurped the throne, the Han dynasty was interrupted, the gang was often corrupted, thieves were everywhere, heroes were angry, and the people were in trouble!" The king first fought Kunyang, Wang Mang was defeated, and then Handan, Wang Lang was defeated, and the northern prefectures and counties were pacified because of the king's martial arts. Today, under three points, the king gets two, cross-state territory, and a million soldiers. In terms of force, who can be the right and left of the king? Essay morality, who can be compared with the king? We have all heard that the throne cannot be empty for long, and the mandate of heaven cannot be violated
, I also hope that the king will obey the mandate of heaven, think about the country, and think about the people of the world! ”
After speaking, Wu Han threw off his robe, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed forward.
"Ziyan, please ......"
Liu Xiu was about to step forward to support Wu Han, and the generals Geng Yi, Cen Peng, Zhu You, Cho Qi, and Ma Wu behind him knelt down and kowtowed, and said in unison: "Please also ask the king to obey the mandate of heaven, for the sake of the country, and for the sake of the people of the world!" ”
Looking at the generals who knelt down, Liu Xiu sighed softly. At this time, it is impossible to say that Liu Xiu has no ambition to be the emperor at all, but it is not a trivial matter to be the emperor, it involves all aspects.
There is no turning back from the bow, and once you embark on this path, there is no turning back. Many people could have lived well, but because they rashly became emperors, they ended up ruined and died.
Liu Sheng of Runan was killed for being called emperor, Wang Lang of Hebei was killed for being called emperor, and orphans and children of the Han family were also killed for being called emperor.
Today, an emperor pops up from time to time, and then becomes the target of everyone, and ends up with no place to be buried.
With so many lessons from the past, Liu Xiu can't help but think carefully. Liu Xiu has always planned and then acted when he does things, and now he wants him to be the emperor, he always feels that something is missing, and he is very bottomless in his heart.
He said quietly, "Rise up, everyone! Now in Hebei, the thieves are undecided, Liu Xuan and Red Mei are all eyeing Hebei, and when they are worried about internal and external troubles, why should they be called the emperor in a hurry? This matter will be discussed later! Geng Chun, who knelt on the ground and kowtowed, suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "Doctor of the world, abandon his family and business, leave his hometown, travel thousands of miles, follow the king, fight in the south and the north, be born and die, wander between swords, never complained, just hope to be able to climb the dragon and the phoenix, and show his ambitions!" Now, the great cause has been decided, the time, place, and people are all on the king's side, but the king has been delaying again and again, and he has been refusing to be the emperor for a long time, which makes the scholars and doctors feel cold, thinking that even if they stay by the king's side
Nothing has been accomplished. The last general was worried that once the scholars were distracted, it would be difficult to reunite in the future. Don't miss this opportunity, my lord! ”
Wu Han raised his head and said, "The last general seconded the proposal!" ”
Geng Yi and the others also looked up at Liu Xiu one after another, and said in unison: "Boshan is very good, and the last general will second!" ”
Liu Zhi directly changed his words and said: "Weichen seconded it! ”
Liu Xiu has always been decisive in doing things, but only in the matter of being the emperor, he seems to be hesitant.
Because this is not his business alone, but directly related to the life and death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command, he cannot but be cautious and consider all the consequences clearly.
He was silent for a long time, and then said quietly: "Okay, I know what you think in your hearts, now, let me be alone and quiet." ”
Everyone looked at each other, and finally shook their heads helplessly and withdrew from Liu Xiu's camp.
Outside, everyone gathered around Wu Han and said, "Until now, the king still can't make up his mind, I really don't know what the king is worried about. Ma Wu said: "The Hebei thief army has been greatly injured and is not worried, and Liu Xuan and Chimei are fighting fiercely, and there is no time to look north, the king is now sitting in Youzhou, Jizhou, Hanoi, try to ask the world, who can have the king's celestial phenomena and people."
Affair? ”
Jing Dan said thoughtfully: "I don't think the king doesn't want to be the emperor, it's just that there is still a lack of an opportunity!" ”
"What's the trigger?" Everyone looked at Jing Dan in confusion.
Jing Dan shrugged with a wry smile and said, "As for what kind of opportunity is missing, I'm afraid only the king knows it in his heart. ”
Liu Xiu is the king of Xiao awarded by Liu Xuan, the lieutenant of the court of the beginning of the imperial court, and is on the order of Liu Xuan, to do great Sima affairs and patrol Hebei.
If he is proclaimed emperor in Hebei, it is tantamount to betraying the imperial court and betraying Liu Xuan. Then he, Liu Xiu, won't he become a villain who will take revenge and be despicable and shameless?
Liu Xiu is very different from the heroes of the past and present.
Some heroes care more about the real than the imaginary, like Cao Cao in later generations, coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes, I just need to firmly control the power, as for what others say about me, I don't care at all.
And some heroes care more about the virtual and less about the real. Like Xiang Yu, he could have killed Liu Bang, the biggest threat, at the Hongmen Banquet, but for the sake of his good reputation, he didn't do it. Liu Xiu is different from Xiang Yu and Cao Cao, he is both real and virtual, I want to get the world, but also a good reputation, I want to sit on the supreme throne, but also to get the admiration of the people of the world, I am
I want to have both fish and bear's paws.
Real power and false reputation, why can so many heroes and heroes of the past and present only choose one of the two? Don't they want to have both? It's not that I don't want to, but it's too hard to have both.
Liu Xiu has not yet refused to be the emperor, to put it bluntly, he just wants to be real and imaginary, and he is making his road to the emperor more difficult.
As Jing Dan said, now Liu Xiu is indeed waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that can allow him to grasp both real and virtual.
He thought he would have to wait a little longer, but this opportunity came much earlier than he expected.
Li Song and Su Mao were defeated in the battle with the Red Mei Army, and Su Mao fled to Luoyang and took refuge under Zhu Kun and Li Yi, while Li Song fled back to Chang'an. Once the battle was lost, Chang'an had no strength to resist the westward advance of the red eyebrows. At this time, Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei and other generals of the Green Forest Department have restored their true colors as thieves, and proposed to Liu Xuan that Chang'an can no longer be defended, anyway, Chang'an will fall into the hands of the Red Mei Army sooner or later, and it will be sacked by the Red Mei Army
I've done it first, I've done it first.
We first ransacked Chang'an, and then evacuated Chang'an and took refuge elsewhere. As long as we have money and food in our hands, we can make a comeback wherever we go.
You must know that Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, and Zhang Wei are all princes and nobles in the first court, and they are the founding heroes of the first court.
But now, these people actually proposed to Liu Xuan that they want to sack their own capital, which shows what kind of people these generals of the Green Forest Department are.
Even to describe them as brazen and despicable is not so appropriate.
Liu Xuan is mediocre, greedy for women, and reuses traitorous ministers, but Liu Xuan really didn't go to the point of sacking his own capital.
After listening to the proposal of Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan and others, even Liu Xuan was furious, and his nose was almost crooked, but he didn't dare to get angry in front of Shen Tujian and others, and his face was gloomy and he rejected the proposal of everyone in the green forest.
Liu Xuan did not accept the suggestion of Shen Tujian and others, and Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, Hu Yin and other nobles of the Green Forest Department were furious, and several people gathered together to complain about Liu Xuan's wrong.
How are you called the emperor, how do you do the Son of Heaven, don't you have any points in your heart?
At the beginning, we pushed you down on the throne of the Son of Heaven, and now that you have been the emperor for two years, you think that you are really the pride of heaven, so you can ignore us and listen to our advice?
Several people scolded Liu Xuan for being an ungrateful villain.
They discussed in private, didn't Liu Xuan listen to them? Simply, they teamed up with the Imperial Doctor Kui Huan, directly kidnapped Liu Xuan, ransacked Chang'an, and then fled from Chang'an with Liu Xuan and gold, silver and jewelry.
If there is a chance to make a comeback in the future, it is naturally the best, if there is no chance to make a comeback, they will kill Liu Xuan, they will go back to Green Forest Mountain and continue to be a hero in Green Forest.
In the eyes of these Green Forest generals, kidnapping Liu Xuan is no different from kidnapping an ordinary person. It can be seen how far the people of the Green Forest Department have behaved at that time.
However, their conspiracy happened to be heard by Liu Nengqing, who was also from the Green Forest Department, Liu Nengqing, like Xie Gong, although he was born in the Green Forest, he was Liu Xuan's henchman.
Knowing the news that Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, Hu Yin, Kui Huan and others were going to kidnap Liu Xuan, Liu Nengqing did not dare to delay, and reported the matter to Liu Xuan as soon as possible. After Liu Xuan heard this, he hated the roots of his teeth, on weekdays, the people of the Green Forest Department bullied him, and he had endured it again and again, but now it was good, they regarded their concession as weakness and bullying, and intensified it, and then wanted to kidnap themselves, or even kill them
Myself.
As the saying goes, the first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers. Liu Xuan pretended to be sick and no longer went to court, and in private, he sent an edict to Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, Hu Yin, and Kui Huan, summoning them to the palace for discussion.
Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, and Hu Yin did not doubt him, and they entered the palace one after another. Only the imperial envoy Kui Huan has been missing for a long time.
Liu Xuan's original intention was to kill them all together when all five of them arrived, but because the hustle and bustle did not arrive, Liu Xuan asked Shen Tujian and others, who arrived first, to wait in the side hall.
When they arrived at the side hall, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, and Hu Yin, the more they thought about it, the more they felt that something was wrong.
Not long ago, the five of them had just conspired to kidnap Liu Xuan and sack Chang'an, but today, Liu Xuan suddenly summoned the five of them, and it was too coincidental, right?
Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, and Hu Yin realized that there was danger, so they asked Shen Tujian to leave the palace with them.
But Shen Tujian was full of confidence that they were overly worried, Liu Xuan was the puppet son they had raised, even if he lent Liu Xuan a hundred guts, he didn't dare to do anything to them. Seeing that he couldn't persuade Shen Tujian, Liao Zhan, Zhang Wei, and Hu Yin had no choice but to leave by themselves, leaving Shen Tujian alone to continue to stay in the side hall.
