Chapter 61 Liu Xun burns letters and loves football, and businessmen pick Liu Xun
Liu Xun realized the seriousness of the problem and decided to move back to the court.
Leaving Lingbao to guard Wancheng, the army immediately marched to Luoyang, and there was no offense against the people along the way.
Everywhere he passed, the people heard that it was Liu Xun's army, and they all ran to tell each other, burned incense and bowed, which made Liu Xun feel the heavy responsibility on his shoulders.
At first, he had the idea of dominating the world, and then he had the ambition to save the world.
Especially since the war with the major princes, he has witnessed the tragic situation of the people being displaced and changing their children and eating, which has strengthened his confidence in winning the world.
The army finally returned to Luoyang, and those officials who had betrayed Liu Xun and hooked up with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty were panicked for a while, afraid that Liu Xun would raise the butcher's knife to him.
After all, Liu Xun is a decisive person.
In the pacification of Yizhou, Liu Xun uprooted Zhao Wei's forces, beheaded Zhao Wei's family and abandoned the city, and stained the East City with blood.
At that time, people on the streets and alleys couldn't help but change their color when they talked about Liu Xun.
Nowadays, many people are a little forgetful of Liu Xun's ruthlessness, but there are always people who think of it.
These people have already made preparations, and some have secretly placed their families outside the city, intending to go in thirty-six ways.
At the beginning, Liu Xun was indeed very angry, and planned to make an example of him and kill chickens to show the monkeys.
However, after thinking about it along the way, he understood many problems and did not want to blindly use force.
On this day, Liu Xun gathered his subordinates and military officials and said: "I, Liu Xun, am a clan and loyal to the emperor, but there are always people who doubt my loyalty. ”
As he spoke, Liu Xun pointed to a large pile of letters in front of him to present the Han Dynasty, "These people betrayed me and secretly communicated with Yuan Shao, wanting to harm me." In the spirit of Heaven's virtue of being a good life, I have decided to burn these letters. ”
Liu Xun personally lit a fire, and looking at the blazing fire, the heart of those who had two hearts fell to the ground.
This move made Liu Xun's officials admire him so much, and those who betrayed him were secretly ashamed. Many people never have two minds again.
After this incident, Liu Xun secretly asked his subordinates Fengying to strengthen the monitoring of civil officials and military generals, but he remained silent on the surface.
After his uncle Dong Cheng was executed, Emperor Han Xian was always worried in his heart, and he didn't know what Liu Xun would do with him.
I heard that Liu Xun returned to Luoyang, and he was not guilty of those officials who secretly corresponded with Yuan Shao, and there was a glimmer of luck in his heart.
Having said that, the emperor is still like an ant on a hot pot all day long.
"Your Majesty, General Liu Xun has come to see Your Majesty", the eunuch reported.
"The general came alone, or did he bring troops," Emperor Xian asked tremblingly.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, General Liu Xun came alone, and his military horses are all outside", the eunuch replied respectfully, but his heart was full of contempt for Emperor Xian.
It's no wonder that he has long been bought by Liu Xun, he is a member of the Wind Shadow, and he only maintains superficial respect for Emperor Xian.
In fact, even if Liu Xun came alone, Emperor Xian would not be a threat to him.
The reason is very simple, most of the people around Emperor Xian are Liu Xun's people.
What's more, Liu Xunyi is bold, and with his martial arts, it is not easy to enter and leave the emperor's palace freely.
"Summoning the general", the emperor took all the horizontal and said hard.
The way of the heart is a blessing rather than a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided.
Since stretching out the head is a knife and shrinking the head is a knife, it is better to maintain a little dignity of the emperor.
Seeing Liu Xun, Emperor Xian pretended to say: "The general has worked hard to defeat the ministers this time." The general has worked hard and made great achievements, and he will not have to report it when he sees me in the future, so he will bring a sword to the palace and be crowned the king of Wei. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, the title of King Wei is really not appropriate, and I ask Your Majesty to take it back. If you bring a sword to the palace, you don't have to, lest those with ulterior motives say that Weichen has a heart of disobedience", Liu Xun excused himself with all his might.
"Joke, you are surrounded by people from me Liu, and you still need to bring a sword to the palace. As for the title of King of Wei, what is the use of using it, in vain it just gives those princes one more reason to oppose themselves", Liu Xun secretly laughed, knowing that the emperor's move was generous on the surface, but in fact it had bad intentions.
Emperor Xian didn't understand what Liu Xun was thinking, and looked at Liu Xun directly, not knowing what he was going to do.
Intuitively, Liu Xun came to Xingshi to ask about the guilt.
It's just that Liu Xun didn't say it himself, and Emperor Xian couldn't speak first.
After a long time, Emperor Xian said bitterly: "This time, Uncle Dong Cheng made a rebellion and falsely passed on the holy decree. I was uneasy and decided to abolish the title of Dong Guifei and live in the palace as a palace maid, what does the general think? ”
Liu Xunzheng said: "Where does Your Majesty say something, one person does things and one person does it." Dong Cheng conspired to make trouble, and he has been ambushed, what is the matter with Concubine Dong? Why do you want to be demoted to a palace maid, you must not. ”
"The minister has no second thoughts about His Majesty, and Your Majesty should not think too much."
Dong Guifei can make waves, all because of Dong Cheng's relationship. Now that the Dong family has been wiped out, what can a woman's family do, Liu Xun doesn't want people to say that he is forcing the palace.
"The general is so magnanimous that I am extremely embarrassed", Emperor Xian said with a crying voice.
"The minister is willing to be the Duke of Zhou and sweep the four seas for His Majesty, and His Majesty does not need to be anxious."
"In order to show a little bit of heart, Weichen is preparing to draft for His Majesty in the near future, Your Majesty's original palace maids are old, so let them go out of the palace", Liu Xundao.
Emperor Xian immediately understood that Liu Xun's real purpose was to replace all the old people around him.
Now the people around Emperor Xian, I am afraid that there are only a few loyal palace maids and concubines who can still use it.
Those eunuchs who didn't even have words, since Liu Xun took control of the government, their loyalty to Emperor Xian had long gone with those words.
Occasionally, a few of them have hard heads, and their heads have long gone to the underworld to look for their words.
Liu Xun was a beauty pageant for Emperor Xian, on the surface, he was loyal to the monarch, but in fact he just wanted to completely control the emperor in his hands, but he also wanted to win the reputation of a loyal monarch and let the people spread the name of his benevolence.
For a while, Emperor Xian felt that Liu Xun was more insidious than any of the ministers who held him hostage in the past.
Although Dong Zhuo and others were brutal and unkind, they were not as thorough as Liu Xun and left no one of their own people.
Emperor Xian was extremely depressed, and said dejectedly: "Thank you for the general's good intentions, now that the war has been going on for many years, the people are tired, and the beauty pageant is too disturbing to the people, so let's discuss it later." ”
"Where did the emperor come from, as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, how can he disturb the people by recruiting a few folk women into the palace?" , Liu Xun looked upright, "The ministers share their worries for Your Majesty, I have brought those women, Your Majesty, the palace maids who are old and yellow, let them out of the palace." ”
Liu Xun clapped his hands, and the eunuchs around Emperor Xian understood, regardless of Emperor Xian's opinion, he went to pass the order, and after a while, several generals with a team of soldiers sent dozens of young girls in.
Those girls are like flowers and jade, but they can't hide the atmosphere of wind and dust.
Needless to say, they are all members of the Wind Shadow under Liu Xun, these people are all from the wind and dust, and they are worth a lot of money on weekdays.
With this group of prodigal hooves waiting, even if the emperor eats bullwhips every day after the emperor, I am afraid that it will be difficult to accept the grace of the beauty.
Liu Xun didn't want to look at Emperor Xian's face anymore, turned around and left, and there were bursts of warblers and swallows behind him, and the sound of waves sounded, and Emperor Xian began his happy life from then on.
The news of Liu Xun's revenge with virtue soon spread among the people, he refused to accept the title of King of Wei, refused to offer the emperor's proposal to be unwilling to bring a sword to the palace, and under the deliberate exaggeration of some people, it began to spread in all corners of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
"General Liu is really a loyal minister!"
"Concubine Dong tried in vain to harm the general, but General Liu repaid the grievances with virtue and did not abolish the concubine, this kind of mind is really rare!"
In the hearts of Dong Guifei and a group of concubines, they were full of resentment, and they didn't dare to vent.
Since those new palace maids entered the palace, from the queen to the concubines, it is difficult to see the emperor.
Every time I walked to the door of the emperor's bedroom, I was blocked by those people.
Hearing the constant chatter in the emperor's room from afar, the hearts of these concubines were broken.
The rebellion was resolved bloodlessly, and Liu Xun's heart was very happy.
Emperor Xian's health deteriorated, although Liu Xun specially donated a lot of bullwhips, deer antlers, wolfberries and other precious medicinal materials, to no avail.
Occasionally, when he saw Emperor Xian, seeing that he was as skinny as wood, Liu Xun said in a concerned tone: "The emperor's nephew, although the harem is as beautiful as a cloud, you also have to pay attention to your body, right?" ”
The emperor is only willing to make promises, and he is noncommittal.
Fortunately, the next thing Liu Xun did made Emperor Xian's body gradually get better and regain his former majesty.
One day, Liu Xun had nothing to do, and suddenly missed the football of later generations.
In middle school, Liu Xun was the main striker of the school's football team, and won many honors for the school.
Just do it, Liu Xun selected a team of elite soldiers from his subordinates, formed a football team, and became a coach and a player himself, teaching them to play football.
At first, the soldiers did not understand the rules at all, and all day long they fell and bruised and bruised.
However, it didn't take long for the sport to be embraced.
It seems that in later generations, this sport, which men all over the world liked, was also loved by the ancients.
Especially the generals in the army, they themselves are strong in martial arts, quick in response, and they are also very powerful in using kung fu in football.
When Zhao Yun Xuangong was transported to the extreme, the goals scored by ordinary players flew out of the distance with a stroke of his hands, and only a few people such as Liu Xun and Xu Huang, who were roughly equivalent to him, could occasionally break through his defense, which really became kung fu football.
When those ordinary soldiers encountered Zhao Yun guarding the goal, they didn't dare to take the initiative to score, for fear that his ball would bounce back on their bodies and they couldn't stand it.
As a result, Zhao Yun won the title of the best goalkeeper of Dahan, Liu Xun became the best striker of Dahan, and Xu Huang became the best defender of Dahan.
This sport began to sweep throughout Luoyang, and then spread from Luoyang to all corners of the Han Dynasty, and became popular throughout the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was also obsessed with football, organized his eunuchs and palace maids to fight, and named himself the captain of a court football team.
Fortunately, the women of this era did not have the bad habit of binding their feet, and their natural feet were just used to play football.
Emperor Xian's ball skills are really not weak compared to a group of palace maids and eunuchs, everyone sees that he is the emperor after all, and he will give him three points.
This made Emperor Han Xian's originally weakened body slowly become stronger, and football allowed him to regain his dignity as an emperor, and he was tired of it all day long.
Liu Xun took the production of football as a business, and through the two major businesses of the Zhuo family and the Zhen family, he transported the football to all parts of the country, and made a lot of money.
Gradually, Liu Xun felt lonely and bored, and his soldiers always let themselves score three points when they played, which made him a little helpless.
Although they have repeatedly forbidden them to let themselves, these guys are just submissive on the surface and pretend to do their best, and they still don't dare to really put themselves right in their bones.
When he couldn't, Liu Xun began to offer rewards to the people, if anyone who can play football can overshadow him, he will not only be rewarded for his official work, but also rewarded him with a hundred taels of gold.
Don't say it, you really have the courage to fight, but unfortunately no one is Liu Xun's opponent.
The more this happens, the more people will come to fight.
On this day, a caravan from the Western Regions came to visit and announced that it was looking for Liu Xun to challenge.
