Chapter 342: An Omen
Due to the arrival of Liu Yi in this world, the concept of Jian'an is missing in the name of the Han Dynasty, the fifth year of Han Xingping, the eighth day of March 197 AD, so the day of the funeral of the general Huangfu Song! The cemetery of the old general is located in Yuquan Mountain outside the city, where the mountains are stacked and green, and the scene is pleasant. After Liu Yi entered Beiping, he buried the remains of the soldiers who died in the previous wars here, and sent a special person to guard and clean it.
Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song, the two veterans of the army, have praised Liu Yi's approach since the day they came to Beiping, although it is common for men to fight on the battlefield horse leather shroud, but these soldiers who established special honors for the Han Dynasty should also have a clean place to live after death, and they also expressed their willingness to be buried here after death.
Eight horses pulled by the giant carriage walked in the front, the car is the coffin of the general Huangfu, Huangfu Hua dressed as a filial son to open the road first, behind the car is a cadre in the clan, etc., as for Liu Yi, these civil and military officials are riding horses, this is the street of Beiping City is wide and flat, otherwise such a car is afraid that it is difficult to pass, when expanding Beiping City, Liu Yi once said that this is the capital of my Han Dynasty, since there should be the majesty of the Son of Heaven, in order to control the luck of the country!
Yuquan Mountain is five miles outside the city, the funeral convoy needs to go out of Wuding Gate to borrow the official road, near this gate is mostly where some houses are located, before the forbidden army and the guards battalion soldiers have made preparations in advance. Today's funeral of the Son of Heaven did not come in person, this is not because Liu Xie is unwilling to do this, but with the dragon spirit of the Son of Heaven, if he is too polite, he is afraid that the old general will not be able to withstand it! Liu Yi scoffed at this statement, but he also knew that people's minds could not be easily changed at this time.
Huangfu Song has fought countless battles all his life, and the people also know the name of this general, and Zhu Jun is the same, many people in Beiping flocked to both sides of the street, some are to send this meritorious veteran on the last journey, and more just to see the excitement, how those court officials are born also make them curious, this time can be regarded as a rare opportunity.
Huaxia has been a state of etiquette since ancient times, which is mostly praise, but in Liu Yi's view, sometimes there is too much red tape, and when he was at the funeral for his grandfather, he was not lightly tossed, how to go on the road at any time, and how to arrange on the road There are detailed regulations, especially for wealthy families, the two major events of marriage and funeral represent their faces, and they must not be ignored.
In this world, Liu Yi had a military rule that he must not disturb the people on the day he became an army, and now it has been officially written into the military law, "The sergeant of the army will be punished with a cane for 30 years and the person who is forced to buy will be punished for 30 months, and the adulterer, adulterous thief and murderer will be immediately executed, and the officer will be added to the crime of violating the rules by one degree." These detailed military laws are restricting the words and deeds of the soldiers, and the harmonious relationship between the army and the people under Liu Yi's rule is rarely based on strict military discipline, and of course, the rights of the soldiers will be greatly guaranteed.
It is precisely because of this that the people in Beiping City will not regard these military masters as tigers like other places, but have a more cordial meaning, you must know that the life of the chaotic world at the end of the Han Dynasty is like a mustard, and the disaster of the small mountain village where Yu'er was located was the tragic destruction of the village was the soldiers with lax military discipline in order to risk the military exploits, not to mention Dong Zhuo's plundering in Luoyang back then, many outsiders will have a certain curiosity about such a scene after coming to Youzhou, and even more in order to avoid the disaster of the war, the family migrated here, and the two years have become more and more intense. As a result, Chen Qun and others had to devise new measures to control the population of Beiping City, and over-prosperity was sometimes a burden.
Everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the harmonious relationship between the military and the people is a good thing, but it may not be the case at certain times, and the people who stand on the roadside to watch like today do not know how many, and those who are closest to the team are only a foot away, which invisibly provides an extremely good opportunity for some people with ulterior motives! This may also be what Liu Yi did not expect at the beginning.
Before going out of Wudingmen, you have to pass through a relatively narrow street, there are a lot of inns on both sides, and now the windows are also crowded with people who watch the excitement, I have to say that this is also an excellent tradition in China, ancient and modern, such a scene is rare.
"Brother, I'm a foreigner, may I ask who is General Liu? I've only heard of his fame, but I haven't seen a real person yet. A middle-aged man on the side of the road asked a local beside him, to say that the most powerful person in the Han Dynasty in recent years is indeed Liu Yi, in addition to the world's military exploits, the influence of Cai Yan, Mi Zhen, Zhen Mi, these three beauties should not be underestimated.
"Hehe, you don't know our General Liu, the people of Beiping often see him, look, the one who rides the black horse arm wrapped in a white cloth is General Liu, the legend outside, the general is a god descending to earth, since he came to Beiping, our days are getting better and better, the Huns, the Wuhuan people are powerful, and General Liu has to be called a big brother! To tell you the truth, I had the honor of speaking to General Liu. The locals answered in detail, and there was a pride in their words.
"Well, it's really majestic, no wonder those beauties are all taken in by him at home, and only such heroes are worthy of peerless beauties, don't be surprised, brother, such a high-ranking character will talk to you?" The foreigners couldn't help but say with envy when they saw Liu Yi riding on the dark clouds and covered the snow, and at the same time they didn't believe the remarks of this local who boasted that he had spoken to General Liu, you must know that even the county lieutenant was full of official authority in them, and it was rare to see it.
"Don't believe it, General Liu is very good to the people, he once passed by my stall that day and asked, boss, how to sell this animal skin, I was stunned, I didn't expect to see him, and then the guards around the general reminded me that the general also bought some fresh venison in my hands that day." The locals are even more triumphant when they talk about it.
"Hehe, that's it, then General Liu buys something in your hand and gives money?" Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard it, but they were also a little envious in their hearts, and the outsiders asked again.
"What are you talking about, our general is strict in governing the army, those military masters have always followed the rules, of course, with the general's kindness to us, some venison is nothing, but it is my glory, but the general said that if I don't charge money, he won't buy it, then I can't help it, that's how I went back, I was told by my mother-in-law to be ungrateful, you came for a short time, you will know after a long time, this Beiping City is different from your places." Locals say.
"Brother, you are really lucky, but don't say it, those military masters are really different from us, I have never seen such polite ones when I have traveled all over the Han Dynasty, and they don't charge city gate taxes! Hey, if only I were in Beiping, it would be good! The emotion of outsiders also attracted a chorus of echoes.
This is just a small scene that happened on the corner of the street, Liu Yi naturally didn't know, but when he entered this street with dark clouds and snow, his heart was a warning omen, the hair on his body exploded, and his heartbeat was gradually accelerating, he hadn't felt this for many years, thinking about the last time he faced the giant python in the mountains and forests, this was a kind of foreshadowing of his body before the danger came, and then thinking of the words of the second brother, his eyes immediately became solemn.
Here, the distance between the people and the Chezhang is closer, Liu Yi immediately found something wrong under careful observation, there are thirty or forty people in the crowd of onlookers who have extraordinary skills, and now he will never be wrong, and these people all exude the same faint murderous aura, not only on both sides of the street, but also on the floors of those inns. This move made Liu Yi believe in his judgment even more, but at this moment, there was chaos in front of the funeral procession, a sound of horse neighing, and chaos abruptly arose!
