CHAPTER XXXI
From a distance, Luoyang is still so magnificent. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info only waited until the front to find that there were many colorful traces on the magnificent city wall, and with the sunset that was gradually setting, it seemed to be the truest portrayal of the Han Dynasty.
A once great empire, but one that has begun to decline.
"Luoyang, it's been a long time..."Raising the horsewhip lightly, Yan Shao walked in the direction of the city gate.
At the end of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Yan Shao also came to Luoyang, but at that time, the whole city seemed a little deserted because of the war. Now that the war is over, Luoyang has regained some of its past prosperity. The streets are full of pedestrians, and from time to time some families come out, with many domestic slaves around them, Yan Shao's journey is actually a little difficult.
"This guy's mansion is much more generous than last time..."Walking to the door of He Jin's mansion, Guan Hai snorted coldly.
Indeed, compared to the last time he came, He Jin was much more relaxed in front of the mansion, and he could even see a few carriages waiting outside.
Seeing Yan Shao, He Jin also looked a little surprised and a little weak-hearted.
"Lichen, why did you suddenly come to Luoyang?" Coughing lightly to hide his emotions, He Jin asked affectionately.
It's no wonder that He Jin will be weak-hearted, after all, the position of Beihai Taishou was given to Yan Shao at the beginning, and now because of Zhang Rang's pressure, Yan Shao is leaving, and he, the general, is too unrighteous to do.
However, seeing that He Jin was a little weak-hearted, Yan Shao smiled slightly.
"Shao came to Luoyang this time, just passing by the general's mansion, thinking that the general has taken care of Shaoduo, so he came to visit..." It's just a courtesy, not a tribute..."
The box was opened, and many gold cakes were neatly placed inside.
All of a sudden, it seemed that the whole room was dyed golden.
Looking at the golden cake in the box, He Jin couldn't help but reveal a trace of greed. "Lichen is so polite, why bring such a valuable gift...", but his hand was already involuntarily placed on the box.
"Where, if it weren't for the general's support, Shao would still be a lieutenant somewhere, where would he have the opportunity to serve in Beihai..." Shao Ben is a person from Beihai, if he is not a general, I am afraid that I don't know when I will be able to return to my hometown, and what is the mere courtesy..."As soon as the words fell, it was already a salute to He Jin.
This time it was not Yan Shao who scattered all his family wealth, but the finances obtained by using the crusade against the Yellow Turban some time ago.
Unlike what many people think, the Yellow Turbans are actually very wealthy, after all, every time they break through the city, they loot not only food, but also the belongings of those large families.
These belongings are usually left in the hands of the leader or leader, but as Yan Shao continuously exterminated many yellow turbans, these belongings naturally fell into the hands of Yan Shao.
In fact, it's a pity to think about it, if these belongings are in the hands of other people, they will naturally be easily exchanged for all kinds of blades or grain and grass, and maybe you can go to Liaodong and other places to buy horses.
It's a pity that they are yellow scarves, and they are thieves in the eyes of the world in this era.
In particular, these yellow turbans habitually plunder the family, they are considered the life and death enemies of the family, and no matter what, the people in the family will not give the yellow turbans such as grain and grass.
In this era, food was basically hoarded in the hands of the family, and such a large amount of property was equivalent to being smashed in their hands. It is also because of this that although those yellow turban thieves have a lot of property in their hands, they have no place to use them at all, and in the end they are all cheaper than Yan Shao.
Originally, Yan Shao planned to wait until the right time to use this part of the property, but now that there is such a problem, it will be used first where it needs to be used.

He Jin stroked the box greedily, and his expression suddenly stiffened when he heard Yan Shao's words.
Yan Shao said it very politely, but He Jin wouldn't believe that he really passed through Luoyang by chance, and more importantly, how could He Jin not hear the subtext? What 'I don't know when I can only return to my hometown once' is nothing more than saying that I don't want to leave Beihai.
Thinking of this, He Jin couldn't help but sigh, hesitated a little when he touched the hand of the box, and finally groaned. "Although a certain is in Luoyang, but I have also heard of Lichen's exploits in Beihai, with Lichen's ability to just a county is too wasteful, now Your Majesty is unwell, the court is the time to employ people, I don't know if Lichen is willing to come to Luoyang to serve?"
"Luoyang?" As if he didn't expect He Jin to ask this, Yan Shao frowned slightly.
In these years, the Beijing officials have the benefits of the Beijing officials, and the local officials have the benefits of the local officials.
Jingguan, leisurely.
The magistrate is basically the emperor of the soil.
However, although Jingguan is leisurely, if he doesn't have a certain status, he is basically a soy sauce player. And the power of the magistrate is great, and it can even be said that it is a parent, but that refers to the situation of peace and prosperity. Now there are some signs of troubled times, even in Yangzhou or Jingzhou, which have not been cholera by the Yellow Turbans, there are also rebellions that appear from time to time, not to mention bandits and the like.
Even if the Jingguan doesn't have any rights, at least he doesn't have to worry about this kind of thing.
What's more, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it is not uncommon for officials to be killed by thieves, and some officials even prefer to abandon their posts rather than take up local posts, which shows that in the eyes of many people, Beijing officials are still superior.
As for letting Yan Shao take up a post in Luoyang, it was He Jin's selfishness.
First, I also have an explanation for Yan Shao, and I don't need to worry about conflicts with the Ten Constants, so wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?
Pity...
"Thank you for the general's kindness, but Shao has been serving in Beihai for a long time, and this is still my hometown, and now I have finally done something in my hometown, and I really don't want to start from scratch in another place..."
If at first he had some resistance to this place in the North Sea, now it is half gone.
He has been operating in Beihai for so long, if he changes places, won't the previous business be in vain? In the end, he made a wedding dress for others. What's more, there is one thing that no one can deny, that is, there is a very serious xenophobia in this era, and it is difficult for an official from another place to take up a post in another place to gain local recognition.
One of the reasons why Sun Ce could not be recognized by the local Haoqiang in Jiangdong at the beginning led to extremely serious internal contradictions was that the local Haoqiang in Jiangdong did not recognize him.
At first, Yan Shao didn't pay much attention to this issue, but after experiencing some things in Beihai, he had to agree with this statement.
Seeing that Yan Shao did not agree to his proposal, He Jin was a little disappointed, but he did not force Yan Shao, after all, this matter was his first dishonesty, and Yan Shao did not have a direct showdown, which was already very face-saving.
Looking down and thinking about it, He Jin had already made a decision.
"That's fine, but if there's anything you need the old man's help with, just ask."
Although he didn't want to have a conflict with the Ten Standing Attendants, it didn't mean that he was afraid of the Ten Standing Attendants, if it weren't for the Spirit Emperor, I was afraid that he would have killed all those eunuchs. In fact, after Emperor Ling's death, there was no backer, and those eunuchs were indeed very afraid of He Jin. Although the Ten Standing Servants are powerful now, it does not mean that He Jin has to back down in everything.
Hearing He Jin's words, Yan Shao was overjoyed. However, he didn't ask for anything extra, but just asked He Jin for some things, such as the official positions of his subordinates.
Although the local tycoons have basically the ability to be independent, the Han family has not really collapsed after all, so some things cannot be done.
For example, Sun Guan, Guan Hai, Tai Shici and others, although they also command Yan Shao's troops in their hands, their official ranks on the surface are not very high.
Since He Jin gave him a lot of money, Yan Shao couldn't let the money smash into the water, and he always had to hear some noises.
These things may be very difficult in the hands of others, but they are easy for He Jin, a general, and He Jin agreed without much thought.
Guan Hai and the others were naturally overjoyed about the promotion, the crisis was lifted, Yan Shao's brows were also relaxed a lot, and as he was talking, there was a sudden commotion in front, and he saw a carriage that was suddenly startled for some reason, and was rampage on the street, rushing to Yan Shao's side, and there were even a few exclamations from the carriage.
"Wu Anguo, Guan Hai!"
Seeing that the carriage was already very close, Yan Shao said sharply.
To Yan Shao's words, the two of them understood, Wu Anguo rushed forward first, Pu Fan's big palm grabbed the reins and sideburns, the horse neighed in pain, the hooves kicked randomly, coupled with the momentum of the car, Wu Anguo also took several steps back although he was born with divine power.
Fortunately, Guan Hai also rushed up at this time, his strength was no worse than Wu Anguo, and he directly pushed the horse to the ground, and even the car shook a little, and he didn't let go of his hand until the horse was completely honest.
Passers-by who saw this scene couldn't help but cheer, and Yan Shao flipped off the horse, wanting to see how the people in the carriage were, but happened to see a beautiful girl helping a woman get off the carriage.
