28. Eloquence (I)
In the end, it is the former site of the palace of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, the main hall is still a little interesting, the main hall is built on a platform about 20 meters high, there are steps on all sides of the platform, the proportion between the arches of the main hall is symmetrical, and the simple and elegant legacy of the pre-Qin era can be seen in every brick and tile.

Yang Fengzheng, who was dressed in military uniform, stood in front of the main hall with several subordinate generals, and there was also the eunuch known as 'Li Huangmen' by his side.
Yang Feng saw that his personal guards had the advantage in numbers, and his face improved a lot, he waved his hand, let his subordinates stand in front of the palace gate, and he walked down the steps to greet Emperor Xian.
Seeing Yang Feng coming, Zhong Xuan whispered to Xun Yu: "Yang Feng has won over several officials in the DPRK and China, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of verbal swords." ”
Xun Yu's face was calm, and he said with a low smile: "I just happened to appreciate Brother Yuan Chang's eloquence again." ”
Zhong Xuan smiled and said: "I am a member of the court, but I am afraid that no one will dare to argue with me, and I am afraid that someone will point the finger at Wen Ruo." ”
Xun Yu smiled: "Yu should do your best." ”
Cao Zhang listened to it next to him and thought, "You won't come to fight the Confucians, right?" I thought this was Zhuge Liang's unique talent, it seems that there is a lack of knowledge, and when it comes to playing tricks, people who read will come twice. ”
Yang Feng came to the emperor and did not salute, but just made a promise: "See Your Majesty." ”
Emperor Xian said: "The general is flat." ”
Yang Feng straightened up and said, "The hundred officials are already waiting for the holy car in the main hall. ”
"Well, Zhong Qing's family, General Yang, the three envoys from Yanzhou, let's go to the palace together." Emperor Xian said.
Yang Feng glanced at the young Cao Pi and Cao Zhang, and said: "Although these two children are the sons of Yanzhou Mu, they are not envoys, how can they enter the main hall and be in the same dynasty with His Majesty and the hundred officials?" ”
Emperor Han Xian was not confused at this time, and said: "When I ascend the throne, my age is similar to theirs, and it doesn't matter if I'm young." When Cao Zhang heard Emperor Xian say this, he knew that as early as when he visited Emperor Xian, he saw Cao Pi and his identity, and this was an obvious act of goodwill.
Yang Feng saw Emperor Xian say this, and there was no way, he could only say yes, after entering the main hall, all the officials got up from where they knelt and bowed to Emperor Xian, Cao Zhang and others followed behind, no need to salute, Cao Zhang looked at these hundred officials wearing Han Dynasty official uniforms, all of them had hungry faces, and sighed in their hearts, the Han Dynasty seemed to have no hope.
Li Huangmen let Xun Yu and Cao Pi Cao Zhang sit in the backmost position, Zhong Miao and Yang Feng sat in one of the closest positions to Emperor Xian, and there was an old man sitting above the two, according to Cao Zhang's speculation, this person was definitely Dong Cheng, the uncle of the country.
After Emperor Xian sat down, he said: "Your family is flat. After the hundred officials returned to their seats, the emperor went straight to the topic: "I have already planned a return date, and after Li Le collected the remnants of the army, the whole army will return to Luoyang." After speaking, he continued: "General Yang Feng." ”
Yang Feng came to His Royal Highness and saluted: "The last general." ”
Emperor Xian then called: "Hedong is too guarded by the king." ”
A middle-aged man walked out and saluted, "The end will be." ”
"Please General Yang and Wang Taishou to raise food and prepare for me and the hundred officials to return to Luoyang." Emperor Xian said.
"No!" Wang Yi readily agreed.
But Yang Feng said: "Your Majesty think twice, now Chang'an has Li Dao Guo Yan, Hongnong has Zhang Ji, now there is a shortage of grain and grass, and after a long march, I have to face the pursuit of the thief army, but I am afraid that the move to return to the east is quite difficult." ”
Zhong Xuan stood up at this time and said with a smile: "The general's words are wrong, Li Ji and Guo Yan have always been at odds, they have seen each other in Chang'an, and then they fought with me to escort the sergeant, which is already the end of the strong crossbow, otherwise he would not accept our peace, Zhang Ji is alone, the Heluo Plain is famine, we are short of food, he is also short of food, how dare he rashly pursue?" Generals should not be alarmist. ”
Yang Feng was about to speak again when he heard this, but Zhong Xuan suddenly shouted: "Bold Yang Feng! The sonic boom hall, all the officials were taken aback, Cao Zhang was also shocked by the middle-aged man's roar, Cao Pi next to him was directly frightened and his body was crooked, only Xun Yu smiled, obviously he knew that Zhong Yu would come out like this.
Yang Feng gave Zhong Xuan such a roar, and the voice could be heard by the sergeants outside, but he saw that there was no fight in the hall, so he did not rush into the hall, and before Yang Feng could react, Zhong Xuan said loudly: "In the past, Dong Zhuoce rebelled against Lu Bu, the original general of Jinwu Ding, and collected 50,000 horses from the Northern Army of the Beijing Division, and then Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, Li Dao and Guo Bi chased Lu Bu, and then the general led the army to escort His Majesty out of Chang'an, and then the war continued, and our army still had 30,000 people, and there were many old soldiers of the Northern Army of the Beijing Division among these 30,000 people!" These soldiers grew up in the capital division, and they looked forward day and night to escort the return of the Son of Heaven, and they were able to return to their hometowns, but you abused the military power given by the Son of Heaven to obstruct many things, and their hearts can be punished!!! ”
Zhong Xuan deliberately raised his voice, not only the people in the hall heard it, but even the guards outside Yang Feng also heard it, obviously he said a fact, that is, the 30,000 people under your Yang Feng may not all listen to you, many of them are veterans of the Northern Army of the Beijing Division, if you want to rebel, you will mutini at any time.
At that time, Lu Bu opposed Dong Zhuo and relied on the 50,000 Beijing Division Northern Army, and later although he took away some of them, but some of them surrendered to Li Dao Guo Yan, and now Yang Feng is reversing and escorting the Son of Heaven out of Chang'an, naturally most of the Beijing Division Northern Army also followed, although there were many losses along the way, but many of the sergeants under Yang Feng were still from this faction, so if Yang Feng was looking for a reason to block the return of the Son of Heaven to the east, the advantage would no longer be on his side.
The two thousand guards outside were also shaken when they heard this, and many people would think: If you continue to follow Yang Feng to the death, and in the end, the soldiers mutiny, plus the Cao army from outside, how much hope do you still have for your life? These guards have been on the battlefield for a long time, naturally they are not afraid of death, but they don't want to die, and loyalty to the Son of Heaven is also the responsibility of the soldiers, the Son of Heaven wants to go back, but General Yang does not allow it, so who should listen?
Yang Feng also knew that Zhong Xuan's words were heart-wrenching, and he also knew that after the guards outside heard this, if he insisted on staying in Anyi, these guards might not listen to him, at this moment, he knew that his general trend had gone, and the strategy of emulating Dong Zhuo and Li Dao Guo Yan had come to naught.
Yang Feng's face was like ashes, and he said to Emperor Xian: "The ministers should try their best to raise grain and grass." ”
At this time, a Han Dynasty official walked out and said loudly: "Even if you want to return to the east, why do you need to let the eunuchs come to greet you later?" In addition to the division, there is still Jizhou Mu Yuan Shao in Hebei, and within the division, there is also the former Jingzhao Yin Sima Fang Duwei in Hanoi, both of whom are wealthy families, isn't it much stronger than a eunuch? I heard that the Yingchuan Xun clan is also a big family, and the name is important, Wen Ruo You are even more talented as Wang Zuo, but you are willing to stoop to be a staff member behind the eunuchs, and the face of the world's scholars is to make you and others corrupt. ”
Cao Zhang looked at the person who spoke, he was a Han official about thirty years old, and he didn't know what official position it was, but this person obviously knew Xun Yu, and he supported Yang Feng, so he jumped out to pick a thorn.
I saw Xun Yu smile slightly, stand up calmly, and said to Emperor Xian: "Your Majesty, please let Han Shi Xun Yu have a word, don't vomit or be unhappy." ”
Emperor Xian said: "Please speak." ”
