Yuzhou, most of which was controlled by Yuan Shu, was most likely attached to Yuan Shu.

After running Li Tianyan, the possibility of another person being attached is greatly increased.

……

Anyi City, which has become the accompanying capital, is gradually becoming lively.

In the bustling and lively, something almost happened!

A guy with a deep blade wandered outside the Forbidden Palace, trying to enter the Forbidden Palace, but was fortunately discovered by Yan Qing, who led the team to inspect.

Unexpectedly, when he was arrested, the man saw that he couldn't get away, so he actually committed suicide by taking poison!

didn't cause a catastrophe, Liu Mang secretly called it a fluke, and immediately reflected on his mistakes.

Although it is not clear who instructed the assassins, Nanyang Yuan Shu was not the only one who wanted to kill the Son of Heaven or trap Liu Mang.

Liu Mang is the general Wei who commanded the army in the capital, and he is also the governor of Bingzhou. If the Son of Heaven was killed in Anyi, Liu Mang would not be able to escape the blame.

The defense of Anyi and the Forbidden Palace must be strengthened, and no similar incidents must be allowed to occur again.

Liu Mang was about to enter the palace and plead guilty to the Son of Heaven in person, but Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, sent someone to announce Liu Mang's visit.

……

The assassin incident scared Liu Xie.

Liu Xie is not as timid as a mouse, but as a puppet little emperor, he has been manipulated by Dong Zhuo for many years, and he has been stimulated by too much blood, so his courage has become smaller and smaller.

As the Son of Heaven, Liu Xie was afraid and had to pretend that he didn't care.

Liu Mang confessed, and Liu Xie appeased. The two talked casually, and Liu Xie euphemistically expressed his worries.

"Your Majesty rest assured, the minister will go back and immediately select a group of strong people to serve as His Majesty's guards."

"Brother Huang bothered."

The two spoke again. When Liu Mang was about to retire, Liu Xie's mouth moved, and he stopped talking.

"Does Your Majesty have any other commands?"

"Uh......" Liu Xie's immature face looked a little embarrassed. I want to ask the Imperial Brother for someone. ”

"Who does Your Majesty want?"

"I want Yan Xiaoyi. As my imperial guard, I wonder if the royal brother can cut his love? ”

To be honest, Liu Mang was really reluctant to Yan Qing. But when the Son of Heaven spoke, Liu Mang couldn't refuse. "Your Majesty has orders, and the ministers will obey them."

"Thank you, Brother Huang!" Liu Xie laughed happily.

Yan Qing has a good image. doesn't like to talk much, and has a good kung fu, on the way to escape from Chang'an, Liu Xie had a very good impression of Yan Qing, so he opened his mouth to ask Liu Mang for it.

"Your Majesty, the minister also has a request."

"Brother Huang, please speak up."

Liu Mang smiled and said very seriously: "Xiao Yi has a good woman, and it is time to talk about marriage. The minister was originally going to arrange a marriage for them after the New Year. ”

Liu Xie hurriedly said: "The beauty of adults is also good deeds." ”

"yes. Yan Qing and the woman respect each other and are very compatible. The minister considered the harmony between the two of them after marriage. I beg Your Majesty not to give Xiao Yi any other marriage, or to give it to a concubine. ”

"That's right...... Well, I agreed. "It is very common for the emperor to give marriage to his close ministers, and it is often regarded as a great honor by the recipient.

But Liu Mang knew that Yan Qing and Tong Xiangyu really loved each other, and there was no room for other feelings between the two.

Liu Mang mentioned this because he was afraid that Liu Xieyi would be happy. Marriage or concubines are given. Yan Qing is not good at words, and if she doesn't do it well, she will be in trouble.

……

The Son of Heaven guard, loyalty first, must choose the innocent. According to the rules of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The Son of Heaven Guard, mostly selected from prestigious big families, will not have different intentions.

However, in Liu Mang's army, there are very few children of the family. Now I don't have that condition, so I can only retreat. Regardless of origin.

Guo Kan was ordered to notify all the departments in Hedong to select a group of trustworthy soldiers who had been in the army for a long time, had outstanding performance on the battlefield, and were candidates for the guards.

As the Son of Heaven Guard, in addition to requiring fists, feet, and weapons to work hard immediately, conduct is the most important. Simple and calm, less talk and do more things are preferred. Moreover, when entering and exiting the Forbidden Palace, the appearance should not be too shabby.

Taken together, several conditions are almost harsh.

There are many people recommended by various ministries, but very few are really eligible.

Guo Kan suggested that it is better to regard this selection of guards as a selection of talents in the army. Expand the scale, and let all parts of the state recommend a group of veterans with long military experience and reliable veterans. Those who are suitable can be appointed as the guards of the Son of Heaven, and the rest can be promoted to the rank and bottom lieutenants of the army.

That's a good suggestion!

Those who have been in the army for a long time are mostly stationed in various parts of the state. In particular, there are a group of absolutely reliable veterans in the ranks of Yanmen, Jingcheng and Shangdang Xu Da.

Liu Mang immediately ordered and notified all localities to select and send.

In terms of fist and foot kung fu, Qin Qiong and Yan Qing are the strongest people in the army. Just as the guard was changing, Qin Qiong returned to Anyi. Liu Mang ordered the two to assist Guo Kan and was responsible for the assessment and selection of guards.

Influenced by Li Yan, Liu Mang attached great importance to the relationship between the army and the people. We can take advantage of this opportunity to further bring civil-military relations closer.

During this time, Zhang Wanzhong's pigeon army developed and grew stronger, and several places such as Yanmen, Jinyang, Changzi, and Anyi could fly directly to each other to pass on books. Immediately used the flying pigeon to pass the book, and recruited Li Yan to Anyi to build momentum for the selection of the guards.

Li Yan engaged in propaganda, came at his fingertips, and waved his hand.

Inside and outside the city, propaganda notices for the selection of guards were posted everywhere.

Most of the proclamations of this era are full of words. There are few literate people among the people, and if there is a special person who reads aloud to the people, the propaganda effect will be greatly reduced.

How could Li Yan fall into clichΓ©s, the notice he designed, with a large picture on it, depicted two people fighting and competing in martial arts, which was very eye-catching. Here's a short slip:

On the day of the winter solstice, the martial arts field will be opened

Selection of the Guards to protect the court

The soldiers enthusiastically reported their names

The people cheered and cheered

……

The winter solstice, from yin to yang.

The winter solstice, the yang energy rises, the monarch is long, so he congratulates.

Prior to the introduction of the summer calendar, the winter solstice was once the most important festival of the year as the beginning of the new year.

Li Yan set the final assessment for the selection of guards on the winter solstice, celebrating the two festivals together, and accompanying the capital Anyi, which became a sea of joy.

When the little emperor Liu Xie heard about it, he couldn't sit still.

When he was in Chang'an, all his activities were arranged by Dong Zhuo and his henchmen, and he had no freedom. When he came to Anyi, Liu Xie didn't get used to it for a while.

He really wanted to go to the martial arts arena on the winter solstice to watch the excitement, but he didn't dare to make his own decisions. Send someone to find Liu Mang and ask if it's okay.

The Son of Heaven came to observe in person, which was a good opportunity to shape the image of the imperial capital of Anyi, and it was also the biggest gimmick, of course Liu Mang would not object.

The people rushed to tell each other, and many people discussed that they should go to the martial arts arena a day in advance to occupy a favorable position.

The selection of guards made such a big noise, and there were many courtiers, and there were many people who sneered. However, the people's aspirations, the yin and yang weirdness of a few people, cannot destroy the noisy festive atmosphere of Anyi.

The people of Anyi are looking forward to the Winter Solstice Festival...... (To be continued.) )
