Chapter 124: A Yizhou Pastor Fell from the Sky
The rampaging negligence of the Yellow Turban Army had no effect on Luoyang City. The luxurious life of the pen, the fun and the pavilion www.biquge.info is still being staged, and the erosive life is still going on.
Last year, a vigorous peasant uprising broke out in the Central Plains, the Yellow Turban Uprising. The ravages of the Yellow Turban Army have made the people of the Central Plains, who were already living in difficulty, even more miserable this year.
In previous years, although there was not much left of the grain produced in the fields after paying the rent and tax. But at least they can sustain their families. Now it's because of the Yellow Turban Army. Last year's harvest in the already scarce fields was even more miserable. But fortunately, after the Yellow Turban Army passed by, almost killed most of the landlords. When the people harvested the grain, they paid much less in taxes.
Under the influence of all sides, the people of the Central Plains finally survived the cold winter, and then planted hope again when the spring flowers bloomed this year.
The lives of the people are so embarrassing. The purpose of each grain has to be considered several times. And Liu Hong, the son of the Han Dynasty who lives in the prosperous Luoyang, still thinks that the current Han is rich and doesn't even eat coarse grains for mice. Yes, in the homes of the dignitaries in Luoyang, the rats they raise do not even want to eat coarse grains. And as the people at the bottom of society, they are eager to catch a mouse and beat their teeth.
Lu Gu took the recital written by Cao De. Along the way, I came to the bustling Luoyang City unhurriedly. Then, according to the system of the Han Dynasty, Cao De's recital was presented. After Lu Gu sent the recital, he received Liu Hong's order on the fourth day, asking Lu Gu to go to the Son of Heaven to explain the matter of Yizhou on the spot.
Originally, Lu Gu thought that even if Liu Hong couldn't see the folds he sent, you waiters should always open it and take a look. As long as you see those words of rebellion, presumably this piece of music will soon reach Liu Hong's hands.
I have to say that Lu took it for granted. After Lu Gu sent the fold, he left. The official who took the fold threw it on the corner of the table without looking. This one was put on for three days. If it weren't for the fact that the official in charge of collecting the local officials' memoranda was drunk that day, he felt that this memo was a bit of an eyesore. Perhaps, this letter will sink directly into the sea.
When the drunken official squinted his eyes and picked up the obnoxious letter, he couldn't remember who sent it. To satisfy his curiosity, he opened it and took a look. At this glance, his drunkenness was gone!
The assassin of Yizhou was killed, Yizhou was already in the midst of war, and the Yellow Turban Army rekindled the war in Yizhou.
Soon, not an hour. This letter went to the hands of Liu Hong, who was lying on the woman's body. Originally, Liu Hong was having fun. Zhang Rang ran in in a panic.
Liu Hong saw that the person who came was his father. Liu Hong thought that his father had gotten him something interesting. What I didn't expect was an ominous letter.
After Liu Hong read it, the male roots of the male were immediately gone. Immediately afterward, the Son of Heaven was furious. After a while, the entire Luoyang City knew that the Yellow Turban Army had appeared in Yizhou again. Moreover, the assassin of Yizhou was also killed by the Yellow Turban Army. So Liu Hong ordered that the people who came from Hanzhong County to deliver the letter go to the court. However, the official in charge of collecting the letter from the local officials had indeed forgotten who had sent it. As a result, the entire Luoyang City began to search for people again.
At that time, Lu Gu was still wandering on the street, and he happened to know that Quan Luoyang seemed to be looking for him. So Lu Gu took the initiative to stand up.
The next day, Lu Gu was sent to Liu Hong. Lu Gu also did not hide the situation in Yizhou to Liu Hong.
Soon after Lu Gu finished speaking, someone stood up and accused Cao De. Why delay such an important matter for a month and a half before reporting it to the imperial court. Lu Gu explained: "In the beginning, due to the prosperity of Hanzhong, many people from other counties of Yizhou were brought to settle in Hanzhong County. It was not until later, when more and more people crossed the Baishui Pass into Hanzhong territory, that General Anbang learned from the mouths of the refugees that there was a war in Yizhou.
Subsequently, General Anbang sent people to Yizhou to find out the details. It wasn't until half a month ago that Xizuo sent back the news of the death of Xuan Jian's assassination and the news of the Yizhou chaos. When General Anbang found out, he immediately wrote a note to inform His Majesty.
But unexpectedly, the general's recital was only seen by His Majesty four days later. ”
While defending himself, Lu Gu also sued the officials for dereliction of duty. But how can Liu Hong have the heart to care about the corruption of the officials below. In case the Yellow Turban Army in Yizhou becomes big again, then trouble will come.
So Liu Hong hurriedly asked the ministers present for a solution. However, the generals who had previously crusaded against the Yellow Turban Army were not in Luoyang at this time, and they were all sent out by Liu Hong to the local area. Therefore, none of the guys in the DPRK who have been pampered for a long time want to go to Yizhou.
At this time, Lu Gu saw that all the ministers who were full of money had no idea. Lu Gu said loudly: "Your Majesty, when the minister set off from Hanzhong. Cao De, the general of Anbang, has begun to reorganize his armament for war. Just waiting for His Majesty to issue an order to fight the thief, the 30,000 army immediately set off into Shu to fight for the stability of our Han Society. ”
The ministers, who had not moved before, suddenly exploded as if they had exploded after hearing Lu Gu's words. Liu Hong looked at the chaotic court discussion and slapped the table, "What's the noise?" Something stood up and said. ”
Immediately, a minister dressed in Confucian robes stepped forward. said: "Your Majesty, this Anbang general is too bold. first concealed the news of the rebellion in Yizhou and did not report it, and then selfishly gathered a large army. Your Majesty, this General Anbang has a bad plan. ”
When Lu Gu heard this, his heart was really a real villain. Immediately, Lu Gu said loudly: "Your Majesty, when the minister was leaving, General Anbang explained to the villain. General Anbang said that during the minister's trip to Luoyang, there will be small people who slander me, and General Anbang asked the minister to bring a sentence, 'Eat the king's lu, think of the king's worries.'" I Cao Deshi received the emperor's favor, and this is the time to serve the country with loyalty. I Cao De is walking straight, just let those young people talk nonsense. It's good that I have a clear conscience. ’”
The words of Cao De brought by Lu Gu, in fact, Cao De did not arrange it in advance at all. All of this was written and acted by Lu Gu himself. But Rugu's words caused a commotion. Some say that Cao De is the husband, and some say that Cao De does not respect His Majesty.
Liu Hong looked at the ministers who were talking about it, and slapped the table again. There was silence throughout the hall. Liu Hong tapped the table with his finger and made a look of thinking twice. Yes, Liu Hong has long forgotten what Cao De looks like, and Cao De's words also have some disrespectful meanings. But except for those who are upright and not afraid of shadows, who dares to say this.
Liu Hong was thinking about it when another person stood up. This person is Liu Yan.
The current Liu Yan is very different from the previous history. At this time, he wanted to spend the rest of his life in a place far away from the Emperor of Shangao with his disappointment in the Han Dynasty, and Liu Yan had already thought about going to Jiaozhou. Now there is a sudden message from Yizhou that the previous assassin's history is hanging, and the current Yizhou is still in chaos.
Immediately after that, Liu Yan knew through Lu Gu that the well-known General Anbang was ready to pacify Yizhou at this moment. According to Liu Yan's understanding of the imperial court, these so-called ministers of the humerus were worried that Cao Dequan would take the limelight. And Liu Hong is worried that Cao De's credit is getting bigger and bigger. Therefore, Liu Yan stood up. proposed to take over the post of Yizhou Assassin. Yizhou's affairs are all left to himself.
Liu Hong saw that Liu Yan, a relative of his own clan, stood up. It's always more reassuring for oneself than for outsiders. So Liu Hong made a decision.
Okay, it's up to you. You Liu Yan went to spy on Cao De, and the two of you pacified the chaos in Yizhou together.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yan proposed to change the history of the assassin to the state pastor. It can command the military and government of a state. In this way, Liu Yan has the right to order Cao De. If this Cao De is really loyal to the Han Dynasty, then he will definitely listen to Liu Yan's words.
As soon as Liu Hong listened to Liu Yan's suggestion, he agreed after a little thought. Yes, your surname is Liu, and you must be more loyal than that surnamed Cao. That's it!
In this way, Thorn Shi became a state pastor. The development of the present history overlaps with the original history.
In Liu Yan's consideration, he took the initiative to ask Ying to go to Yizhou, and also proposed to change the history of the assassin to the state pastor. He thinks entirely for himself.
As mentioned earlier, this Liu Yan is a person who is not willing to accept the status quo. But the mediocrity of the Han court disappointed him completely. He was ready to seal himself. But the news from Yizhou made him ignite the passion in his heart again.
First of all, Liu Yan can take the opportunity of the Yizhou chaos to show his talents, and let the whole world see that I, Liu Yan, am not a wreck. It's not those wine bags and rice bags that only rely on the surname Liu to eat. I also have ideals, I also have talents, and I also have ambitions.
Second, Liu Yan proposed to increase the rights of state pastors. It was to prevent Cao De from covering the sky with one hand after the Battle of Yizhou.
Aren't you Cao De very capable, you have already prepared an order from the imperial court with an army of 30,000. Now I, Liu Yan, are here, and I am here with His Majesty's holy decree. And now I, Liu Yan, am not only the assassin of the supervisory power, but the state pastor who leads the military and political affairs of a state.
What do you say in Hanzhong, it is also a county in my Yizhou. No matter how capable you are, Cao De is still my subordinate. You take your soldiers and fight the world for me. It's hard to find this kind of good thing with a lantern. As long as I, Liu Yan, use a little trick and make your army my army, it will be even better.
Due to the urgency of the situation in Yizhou. After Liu Yan got Liu Hong's favor, he went home with the holy decree, packed some things, and left Luoyang with Lu Gu early the next morning and rushed to Hanzhong. And Liu Yan's family is small because Liu Yan's not very large family property is delayed on the road.
When Lu Gu left Hanzhong, Cao De instructed Lu Gu to delay as much time as possible. Lu Gu did not deliberately delay when he came to Luoyang, and then delayed in Luoyang City for four days, and now he began to rush back, Lu Gu had to create some accidents.
This time, Liu Yan was on the road with Lu Gu. There were not many people accompanying him, but there were no less. There were a hundred and ten guards alone. Among them were the ten guards that Lu Gu had brought from Hanzhong. In terms of the number of guards alone, Liu Yan is very bold and sad. Only a hundred people dare to go to the war-torn Yizhou, haven't you really seen the horror of swords and swords? On the other hand, the highest official of a dignified state went to take office, and he only brought a hundred guards.
However, in Lu Gu's opinion, even if Liu Yan brings twice as many guards, it is very easy to do something on the road. The guards brought by Lu Gu were all selected by Cao De for Lu Gu personally.
Lugu is still very important to Hanzhong now. Cao De's command has always had a shortage of civilian officials. If it weren't for the joining of Xun Yu and Xu Shu later. Cao De will certainly not be as laid-back as he is now. Therefore, Cao De attaches great importance to Lugu's safety. Therefore, among the ten guards in Lugu, two were two instructors transferred from the Black Pearl Battalion, and the remaining eight were all Cao De's personal guards.
Relying on the instructors of the two black pearls alone, it was easy to kill Liu Yan without knowing it. Not to mention creating a little accident.
No, the team has just stepped out of the division. Liu Yan happily sat in the carriage and thought about a bright future, when suddenly Liu Yan felt the sky shake. The carriage is upside down! Liu Yan was only discovered by the guards who got out of the wreckage of the carriage that his carriage had fallen off a wheel. That's right, a wheel dropped!
Liu Yan's carriage was not found at random. According to the etiquette system of the Han Dynasty, there are clear regulations on how big an official can be in a carriage. If you do it big, it will be a big rebellion, and if you do it small, it will damage the majesty of the court. Today's Liu Yan is even more unlikely to change to a carriage. This is not yet on its own turf. Wouldn't taking a carriage that didn't line his identity make Cao De look at himself squarely.
Now is not the time to find the person responsible, it is the right thing to get on the road quickly. It's impossible to rebuild a carriage, so let's fix it quickly. This delay is a day's time.
But after a few days. The horses that pulled the cart for Liu Yan actually had diarrhea collectively. The one that pulled it was in a hurry. Liu Yan looked at the few high-headed horses that fell to the ground and were panting weakly, and the anger in his heart was rising. If Liu Yan can't see that it was Lu Gu and their ghosts after these two accidents, then Liu Yan can go back to the Liu family ancestral hall and sweep the floor.
But due to various reasons, Liu Yan can't be angry with others. In desperation, Liu Yan could only go to Lu Gu to borrow a horse. Why did Liu Yan borrow a horse from Lu Gu. Because of this trip, the horses brought out by Liu Yan were all used to pull carts. The accompanying guards were simply infantry, without horses! Among them, only Lugu has horses. You must know that Lu Gu and his ten guards are one man and one horse.
Liu Yan went to Lu Gu to borrow a horse, but Lu Gu directly and firmly refused. No, our horses are war horses, not inferior horses used to pull carts. Moreover, our horses and the knights on their bodies are brothers and partners. They have built up a heart and soul. Nor can our knights let their brothers pull the carts.
Liu Yan saw that Lu Gu was so righteous and righteous, and Zhenzhen was justified and knew that no matter how much he said, it would be in vain. So he aimed at the rest of the horses that were pulling other carts.
Finally, the horses arrived at Liu Yan's carriage. And those horse-drawn carts became rickshaws. As a result, the speed of the team's march is at least two percent slower.
Tang Seng went west through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties. That Liu Yan is similar. It's just that Tang Seng is facing the danger of being eaten, while Liu Yan is facing a little pain at most.
After Liu Yan arrived in Hanzhong, after seeing Cao De, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. It's over. But it's really exciting.
Hey, Liu Yan is also a masochist! (To be continued.) )
