Liu Bei asked those who had escaped to be brought over, and he also wanted to know what was going on in Chang'an City.

When someone brought it over, Liu Bei was taken aback.

Liu Bei was taken aback because there were actually a few people in it that he knew.

Not to mention others, there are several of them who are more famous ministers, and what really scared him was that Liu Xie was also among them.

Liu Bei was stunned for a while, then hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground and shouted: "Minister Liu Bei greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." ”

The other party and his party were all relieved when they heard Liu Bei's name.

Just now they were all nervous to death, because they were afraid of falling into the hands of the Xiliang army again.

"Liu Aiqing, please get up." After all, Liu Xie has experienced too many storms and waves, and he quickly reacted.

"Your Majesty, after the minister is King Jing of Zhongshan, we are a family, and Your Majesty has something to order." Liu Bei said again.

"Yes, Uncle Liu is right, I heard Li Ru talk before, counting the seniority, you are my imperial uncle, I should call you Uncle Liu." Liu Xie said again.

When Liu Bei heard this, his whole body was refreshed, and the identity he had worked so hard to manage was finally said from the emperor's mouth today, which was equivalent to acknowledging his identity.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Bei only got up from the ground at this time.

recognized a nephew, the other party is still the current emperor, although the emperor no longer has any real power, but the reputation is still there, he can use this identity to do a lot of things.

"Uncle Huang, is it safe here? How many soldiers do you have? ”

Liu Xie was really scared, so he hurriedly asked Liu Bei if he could protect him.

"Your Majesty, this Xiliang army is brutal, and now I have insufficient troops, but Your Majesty don't worry, I swear to protect Your Majesty." Liu Bei said solemnly.

Liu Bei's promise relieved everyone who had just escaped from Chang'an City.

Those frightened ministers were even more glad that with our people, they were all palace maids and eunuchs and them, without a little force, even if they encountered a small group of rebels, it was enough for them.

Liu Bei picked them up, and after a performance just now, Liu Bei felt good about himself, at least he confirmed his identity as the emperor's uncle.

With this identity, it will be much easier for him to do it in the future.

So Liu Bei went to get some stretchers and carriages, took Liu Xie and a few ministers, and actually hurried away.

"Lord, Gao Ming, with the emperor in hand, no matter where we go, it will not be so difficult, with righteousness in hand, everything is much easier." Yan Rou said to him.

Liu Bei was very proud in his heart, acknowledging the identity of the emperor, and then using the emperor, it was too important for him.

Along the way, Liu Bei hurried away, and at this time, the Xiliang army couldn't take care of them at all.

Thousands of people are moving forward at a rapid pace.

Two days later, they approached Hangu Pass.

"Second brother, you immediately lead two thousand men and horses to Hangu Pass, and be sure to open the passage for us."

If you want to go out from Chang'an, what you can pass through is Hangu Pass, so this pass must be passed.

Everyone knows the sturdiness of Hangu Pass, and Liu Bei didn't know the situation before, so he was also a little worried.

However, Yan Rou judged that it was not difficult to overcome where it was.

Before, the Xiliang army was defending, but when attacking Chang'an, Li Dao and Guo Yan had already transferred most of the soldiers and horses, so it was not difficult to break through now.

After Zhang Fei got the order, he went with soldiers and horses, and when he arrived at Hangu Pass, he only saw a piece of ruin, where there were soldiers to defend.

The ground was littered with corpses, apparently less than two days after it had been breached.

"The power of Lu Bu can be seen."

It is not difficult for Zhang Fei to judge that this was done by Lu Bu, and after Lu Bu rushed out of Chang'an, he also chose to break through from Hangu Pass.

When Lu Bu arrived at that time, there were not many soldiers and horses to defend here, so he easily swept the entire Hangu Pass, and then led the men and horses out of the pass.

After Zhang Fei came back to report, Liu Bei said loudly: "God really helps me, I didn't expect that our biggest worry was solved by Lu Bu." ”

"Yes, my lord, God bless my Han, now the lord is a relative of the Han clan, with His Majesty's help, and soldiers and horses in his hands, he can start anywhere." Yan Rou also said.

Liu Bei felt very comfortable when he heard this, and led the people out of Hangu Pass.

After leaving Hangu Pass, Liu Bei was faced with a choice, whether to go east or south.

"Lord, to the east is the direction of Luoyang, which is already a mess, and there are not many people, it is really not a place to make a fortune, it is better for us to go south to Jingzhou, or Yizhou in the southwest."

Yan Rou then analyzed: "Whether it is Liu Jingsheng or Liu Zhang, they are both relatives of the Han Dynasty, Your Majesty wants to go, they dare not welcome it, and they will give up the territory for us to cultivate, it is really a good choice." ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he immediately felt reasonable, now the major princes, anyone can not bird Liu Xie, the emperor, but none of these Han clan relatives dared.

No matter how unwelcome you are secretly, you must respect Liu Xie on the surface.

"Okay, write to Liu Biao, inform us that we are going to Jingzhou, and let him pick up the car." After thinking about it, Liu Bei still chose to go to Jingzhou.

Yan Rou nodded and asked people to make arrangements.

So Liu Bei led people all the way to the southeast and slowly approached Jingzhou.

On the way, Liu Bei received a letter from Liu Biao.

In the letter, Liu Biao welcomed the holy car very much and respected Liu Xie very much.

However, in the end, Liu Biao said that the arrival of the holy car could not be without the palace, and he was planning to build a palace in Xiangyang, let Liu Xie live, let them temporarily live in Nanyang, and wait for the palace to be built before welcoming the holy car.

A discerning person knew at a glance that Liu Biao didn't want Liu Xie to enter Xiangyang.

Now Liu Biao is already the emperor of Jingzhou, Cai Mao is strong, it is difficult to control the accident, in Jingzhou is basically Liu Biao's world, even Cai Mao, he has to respect Liu Biao as the master, as long as Liu Biao is alive, Cai Mao no matter how strong he is, he will not dare to do anything.

However, Liu Biao has Liu Biao's reasons, and no one can blame him for this incident.

In fact, it was not that Liu Biao did not want to welcome Liu Xie into Xiangyang, but that Liu Xie's identity was too sensitive, and soon several forces in Jingzhou were divided, and their opinions were very unanimous, and there was no unified opinion for two or three days.

In fact, it is no wonder that if Liu Xie came alone, I believe that the people in Jingzhou would welcome it, but Liu Xie came with a large group of people, including thousands of soldiers and horses.

If they are allowed to enter Jingzhou, the power will definitely be redistributed, and the big families and forces in Jingzhou will definitely not be willing to give away the power, so Liu Xie and his party are not welcome.

Liu Biao also didn't want others to share power with him, but he was afraid that his reputation would be damaged and his position would be shaken, so he couldn't refuse Liu Bei's request.

In the end, I can only come up with this way, and let them live in Nanyang for the time being.

The Nanyang area now also belongs to Jingzhou, and with such an arrangement, Liu Biao will not be morally condemned.

"Lord, it's okay, in Nanyang, we can take the opportunity to develop and have a place where we can rest and recuperate." Yan Rou was not surprised by Liu Biao's arrangement, which was also a good thing for them.

I have to say that Liu Bei's **** luck is good, if he hadn't "picked up" an emperor, it would not have been possible to have a piece of land so quickly.
