Chapter 111: Liu Fan Comes Out of Yingchuan
"Thank you Lord Chunchun for your teachings, Xu Huang keeps it in mind." Xu Huang's eyes moistened.
His parents gave birth to him and raised him, and the Lord knew that he used him.
Liu Fan's kindness is comparable to the nurturing grace of his parents.
Xu Huang had endless fighting spirit, and Liu Bi led a thousand soldiers to escort the grain and grass to Kunyang.
Liu Fan's side has also completed the army and is ready to set off at any time.
"Huang Taishou, the grain and grass carried by our army have been enough for three months, and it is inconvenient to carry no matter how much it is. There are still tens of thousands of stone grain in the city, and if the people of Yingchuan have enough food for their families, they hope that Taishou can support them. When Huang Wan came over to see off Liu Fan, Liu Fan asked Huang Wan for advice.
"That's inevitable, as a parent official of the people, how can I watch the people suffer." Huang Wan said as it should be.
Liu Fan nodded reassuringly, Huang Wan's words were beyond doubt. When he was the pastor of Yuzhou, his political achievements were the best in the world. The situation in Yuzhou is much worse than in Yingchuan. What's more, Yingchuan is relatively stable now.
Three thousand infantry and two thousand cavalry, led by Liu Fan, lined up and headed northeast.
Their first stop was Changshe City, and then they went to Chenliu, and after Chenliu, they went directly to Jiyin County, Yanzhou. Yanzhou is not far from here, and it is not close to it.
Now all the soldiers are equipped with uniform armor and weapons, the cavalry is in the front, the infantry is in the rear, and they are lined up in a long line to march towards the long shrine.
The purchase of these armor and weapons had been reported to Liu Hong as early as when Jiang Ji returned to Beijing, and Liu Fan also mentioned it in his letter to Liu Hong.
Naturally, the imperial court will not be stingy with these five thousand sets of armor and weapons.
The armor and weapons just arrived a few days ago, and with the armor, the soldiers' own defense capabilities have been greatly improved, and a small life can be saved at a critical moment.
The people of Yingchuan heard that Liu Fan was leaving Yingchuan. The people cried and cried out, nostalgic and reluctant.
In Yangzhai County, both rural people and urban residents flocked to see Liu Fan off, forming a scene of thousands of empty alleys.
The official roads on both sides of Liu Fan's line were almost overcrowded, and many people were standing in the fields outside the official roads.
Bustling, shoulder to shoulder, looking around, how many people?
Liu Fan waved his hand and said goodbye.
Ru Ying is very talented, but this is not the place where he started his career, because Yingchuan is a place of four wars, and there is no danger to defend. He didn't want to spend all the years of his life here.
"There is a way to win the world, to win its people, and to win the world; There is a way to win the people, to win their hearts, and to win the people. If he has a heart, this Yingchuan is his bag, even after ten years, his reputation in Yingchuan will still not decrease. An elegant man about thirty years old looked at Liu Fan in the crowd and muttered to himself.
The elegant man said well, even if the older generation dies, there are still young generations, and there are many young generations, Liu Fan's reputation has taken root in their hearts.
It is said that Sima Yi said this sentence to his two sons, Sima Shi and Sima Zhao, before his death.
The will of the people is equal to the world. No matter how ruthless the founding monarchs were, they were still very merciful to the people, at least on the surface.
The struggle for hegemony between Chu and Han at the end of the Qin Dynasty is a striking example.
After the overlord Xiang Yu destroyed Qin, he ruled the world according to Jingxiang, but he casually killed the princes and officials, and was harsh to the people, even killing none of the 400,000 Qin troops who surrendered.
On the other hand, Liu Bang, although he does not have Xiang Yu's heroic spirit of daring to act, he cherishes the people's power and is kind to people. Capture Xianyang Xiang Yu connived at the soldiers, but Liu Bang made three chapters of the law. Before he became the emperor, he attached great importance to talents. For the soldiers who surrendered, they were accepted if they were willing to stay, and let them go back to their hometowns if they were unwilling. In the competition with Xiang Yu, Liu Bang, who lost more than he won, won because he won the hearts of the people. Whether it is the heart of a prince, or the heart of a soldier, or the heart of the people.
Gentleman, boat also. The people, the water, too.
The water carries the boat, and the water capsits the boat.
At the other end of the elegant man, there was another person looking at Liu Fan, his eyes were full of brilliance.
His name is Zhao Qi, formerly known as Zhao Jia, and he is from Jingzhao. He looks old.
People live for seventy years. In later generations, seventy years old was nothing, but in the Han Dynasty, seventy years old was a long-lived person, and even if he saw the Son of Heaven, he did not have to bow down.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, very few people could live to be over 70 years old, and even if they did, they were basically people who were about to die. But this person, with a ruddy complexion, has a dragon and tiger spirit. Looking at his spirit, it seems that he can live for another twenty years.
Zhao Qi was versatile when he was young and had a deep study of scriptures. After raising filial piety, he served in the state and county. Not only is it incorruptible, but it is also jealous and hateful, which makes corrupt officials and corrupt officials fear.
Zhao Qi married the niece of the great Confucian Ma Rong, but did not meet Ma Rong because he despised the status and luxurious life of Ma Rong's relatives.
At that time, the eunuchs of his relatives took turns to control the government, and with his character, there must be no room for survival. After offending the eunuchs, he changed his name to Qi and fled to the East China Sea to sell cakes.
After the virtuous minister Hu Guang came to power, because Emperor Heng Liu Zhi killed his relative Liang Ji, he gained power and granted amnesty to the world. Zhao Qicai was called to return and worship the assassin of the state. After Hu Guang's death, the second disaster of the party was found, and Zhao Qi was imprisoned for more than ten years. Secluded in the Yangtze River.
After the disaster of the party was lifted, the imperial court summoned Zhao Qi as a councilor, but because the road was occupied by the yellow turban, Zhao Qi could not pass, so he did not respond to the imperial court's call.
Until the Nanyang Yellow Turban retreated to Wancheng, Liu Fan cleared Yingchuan. He rushed from Jingxiang to Luoyang to take office. Today, I happened to pass by Yingchuan, and when I heard that Liu Fan was out of Yingchuan, I came to watch it with the people.
"Such a demeanor, all the people admire. Teenage heroes too. Zhao Qi stood in place, but Liu Fan missed him and walked a long way.
Zhao Qi couldn't see Liu Fan's face clearly, and he couldn't even see his back clearly. But he still stood still. He slowly closed his eyes, recalling that Liu Fan had walked in front of him again and again. Recall the expressions of the people around me. He seemed to have entered the realm of the unity of heaven and man, and the moment Liu Fan passed in front of him, he was deeply engraved into his mind.
For a long time, for a long time. From sunrise to sunset. Zhao Qi opened his eyes and left with a smile.
Not long after, a stunning picture of Liu Fan appeared in Yingchuan.
Zhao Qi was also one of the most famous painters of the late Han Dynasty.
After he painted this picture, he burned all the previous paintings and calligraphy. Because those calligraphy and paintings are far from the artistic conception of Liu Fan's Yingchuan picture.
Since Liu Fan came out with the Yingchuan picture, his subsequent paintings have never reached this artistic conception.
Just like the story of gathering in Lanting during the Eastern Jin Dynasty, 41 people including Wang Xizhi and Xie An gathered in Lanting, drank and wrote poems, and collected poems. Wang Xizhi improvised a preface to this collection of poems. This is the "Orchid Pavilion Preface" with 28 lines and 32 crosses.
On that day, Wang Xizhi took the time and place to the extreme, and wrote the preface of the Lanting Pavilion in a mysterious realm. But afterwards, he himself could not imitate it.
The same is true for Zhao Qi.
