Chapter 294: Xu Rong
"Lonely and Jun play with each other!" Zhao Wei's expression that seemed to be almost constipated made Liu Yuan laugh.
Zhao Wei was a little stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously reached out and wiped his forehead, although there was no sweat on it. His eyes cautiously aimed at Liu Yuan, and he asked tentatively, "I don't know what my lord invited, what does King Xia want?" ”
Closing the voice, Liu Yuan's expression became serious, and his fingers habitually tapped on the big case, Zhao Wei was a little anxious, and Fang slowly replied: "Lone agreed!" ”
Zhao Wei frowned, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and was about to thank him. Hearing Liu Yuan's solemn voice, he continued: "But you have to change the trading method." Shu Jin stays, you go back and tell Liu Yan to exchange the rest of the goods for food. 100,000 Hu, 100,000 Hu, 100,000 Hu, food to Guanzhong, Lone will release people, never break their promise! ”
"King Xia!" Zhao Wei has more to say.
was stopped by Liu Yuan sharply: "It's so decided, no bargaining." told Liu Yan that it was up to him to decide whether he wanted the lives of his three sons. Lone also doesn't want to raise idlers, in January, before this year, if Lone doesn't get a reply, he will return the corpse of his three sons to him. ”
Zhao Wei had no choice but to retire.
And Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Grain, for this food, he also tried his best, looted everywhere, Sanfu's families did not escape his clutches, and at least half of the warehouses were taken away.
plus Yuan Shao's 100,000 Hu, it is not a lot, but it is not enough for the entire Guanzhong. The battle broke out in the west, which made Liu Yuan so worried, since he came to this pass from the west, Liu Yuan's sideburns and hair turned a little whiter. This Liu Yan sent it to the door by himself, so he had to squeeze a sum.
……
In December, the world is at peace, and the princes of all parties are spending the winter peacefully. Sanfu earth, the north wind is howling, the ice and snow are all over the sky, the snow is not small this year, and the world is covered in silver.
Guanzhong, under Liu Yuan's control, is quite calm. The Liangzhou coalition army in the west, without two battles, temporarily withdrew to Liangzhou, did not disperse, and was stationed in Hanyang, just waiting for the next year to move troops.
Wandering through the city with Cai Yan and taking Chang'an, he has not yet browsed the Xiongcheng here. After staying in Weiyang Palace for so long, there are too many things to deal with up and down. Today, I finally have to be idle and take my favorite "Mrs. Cai" out for a walk.
Compared with Luoyang, Chang'an City is indeed much dilapidated, of course, before it was destroyed by Dong Zhuo. Since the end of the former Han Dynasty, Chang'an has also been regarded as a disaster and difficulty, and has been sunk to Dong Zhuo's relocation of the capital. After moving westward, Dong Zhuo greatly repaired the inside and outside of Chang'an, and finally had some new atmosphere, but it was messed up by Li Guo and destroyed a lot.
"Chang'an is in a lonely hand, and will never sink again, and one day, he will glow with the demeanor of the world's first heroic city!" Looking at the "defeated elephant" in the city, Liu Yuan couldn't help but say loudly.
There are no pedestrians around, the weather is cold, and in this season, they all spend the winter at home. Liu Yuan didn't wear much thickness, and the body of the Huns was cold-resistant. Cai Yan, who was following Liu Yuan, was dressed in a thick brocade coat and covered with fox velvet.
Seeing that his jade face was frozen red, Liu Yuan couldn't help but hold his hand, which was soft, and Cai Yanyu's hand trembled. Liu Yuan's hands were really cold, and he wanted to warm him, but instead he froze her. Let go, Liu Yuan touched his nose, a little embarrassed.
Cai Yan smiled gently and took the initiative to reach out and hold Liu Yuan. Feeling the warmth in his hand, Liu Yuan rarely showed a relaxed smile.
Li Ru and Jia Xu were called by Liu Yuan to accompany them, and they followed silently, and they were a little surprised to see Liu Yuan and Cai Yan so "deep husband and wife". I never thought that Liu Yuan still had such a warm side.
"King! It's here! Got in the car, went around a few times, and when he arrived at the door of the first house, Li Ru whispered to Liu Yuan outside.
When Liu Yuan came out, it was naturally impossible for him to hang out without anything, it would be too extravagant for him. Here, I want to visit someone, Xu Rong.
In the last year, he led the army to attack the Li Guo coalition army, and after the defeat and capture, Xu Rong was imprisoned by Li Dao. After that, all the things in Guanzhong were complicated and slowly ignored. In Chang'an Prison, he enjoyed prison life for more than a year, until Liu Yuan entered Chang'an.
When Liu Yuan heard about Xu Rong's incident, he immediately ordered someone to release him from prison and give him a slave in the house, attaching great importance to it. When Xia Guo was employing people, he had heard of Xu Rong and Liu Yuan for a long time, and he naturally wanted to accept such a rare commander.
Liu Yuanci's house is not small, the gate is closed, there is no door plaque, there is some snow in front of the door, and there is no trace of being cleaned. Liu Yuan and Cai Yan got out of the car hand in hand, glanced at it, and asked Li Ru, "This is Xu Rong's mansion?" ”
"Back to the king, indeed!" Seeing the confusion in Liu Yuan's eyes, Li Ru explained: "Xu Rong has been at home behind closed doors since he was released from prison, and he has never set foot outside. When the minister heard that the slave rewarded by the king, Xu Rong originally intended to be dismissed, but he still cared about his pity, and now Sanfu is not good at surviving, so he stayed. ”
"King, listen to Lord Li's words, this General Xu is still a generous person!" Cai Yan whispered beside him.
Liu Yuan tapped his head twice, and his senses were much better for Xu Rong, and he stretched out his hand and waved: "Long Yuan, knock on the door!" ”
When Liu Yuan arrived, Xu Rong in the Snail Mansion still came out to greet him, introduced Liu Yuan and his party into the hall, and sat down to serve tea.
Xu Rong is of medium stature, with a weathered face, and looks extremely ordinary, and his one-year prison life has made his figure a little thin. There is an obvious scar on his face, which was "rewarded" by Li Dao at the beginning, and after the scar, it left this indelible mark.
Even so, when looking forward to it, the power of not being angry was revealed, after all, the posture of a famous general, when he was in charge of the army, he attacked strong enemies and killed countless people, but now his edge has been reined in.
"The name of the general, I have heard it for a long time, I admire it in my heart, and I came to the door today, and I bothered it!" Liu Yuan looked at Xu Rong and bowed his hand.
Xu Rong did not face Hu Lu's face full of "righteous indignation", his expression was indifferent, and he returned the salute: "It's just a general of the defeated army." I am now just a mere person in the opposition, and I don't deserve the title of General Xia Wang. If it weren't for this mansion given by King Xia, I'm afraid that there would be no place in the world! ”
"Xu Rong, the capital of a famous general, the talent of a commander, the world's best man! The general is too modest! Liu Yuan straightened his sleeves and looked at Xu Rong: "I don't know what the general plans to do in the future?" ”
Looking at Liu Yuan's eyes and expression, how could Xu Rong not know the hidden meaning of Liu Yuan's words. The reaction is not slow, and he knows what Liu Yuan means from the moment he came to the door.
"For the general's talent, I love Lonely, I don't know the general, but I am willing to serve Lonely, seek a great cause, and show my ambitions?" Liu Yuan didn't mention the words of surrender and surrender, which was enough to be corporal Lixian.
After thinking for a while, Xu Rong didn't show any reserve, and raised his head to meet Liu Yuan: "If King Xia doesn't dislike his husband, he will wish Shixia!" ”
"Good!" After receiving Xu Rong's reply, Liu Yuan's face flashed with excitement.
"This tea is too bitter and unpleasant, but there is good wine, and I want to drink it with the general!" Liu Yuan pouted, very interested.
Xu Rong looked embarrassed: "The food in the house is tight, and there is no wine to entertain King Xia!" ”
"Longs! Send someone to get two jars of spirits for Lone! Hearing this, Liu Yuan decisively ordered.
