Chapter 119: Leaving Wuyuan
After the appointment was announced, the Yellow Gate Squire handed over the seals to everyone present one by one, and recovered the original seals in everyone's hands.
As for Lu Bu and Zhang Fei, who were not present, they were temporarily handed over to the new Jiuyuan Taishou Cheng and asked him to transfer them on his behalf.
Later, Lin Fang led everyone to entertain the Huangmen waiter, and arranged a good accommodation for him in the Prime Minister's Mansion after the night banquet.
As soon as the dinner was over, Liu An immediately sent someone to recall Lu Bu quickly.
The Huangmen squire only stayed in Jiuyuan for one day, and returned to Luoyang early the next morning.
In the evening of the same day, Lu Bu rushed back to Jiuyuan.
Liu An immediately gathered his subordinates to discuss the appointment of the imperial court.
Lu Bu is the best in the world, Liu An doesn't want him to be too far away from his side, with him, Liu An feels full of security.
At least you don't have to worry about being killed alone on the battlefield, and Liu Bei and Liu An are not too worried that he will go to Xinchang alone.
The newly arrived county commander will inevitably compete with the local family for power and profit, Liu Bei is alone, and Liu An is worried that he will not be able to cope with it.
His idea was to let LΓΌ Bu and Zhang Fei resign from their official positions in the imperial court and be reappointed as county lieutenants of Zhuo County and Xinchang County.
In addition, Liu An is also ready to let Lin Fang raise Meng Lan as filial piety, and at the same time win the post of Jiuyuan County Cheng.
Gao Shun is a military general after all, and after Liu An leaves, he needs someone to assist him in governing Jiuyuan.
Meng Lan's loyalty is undoubted, and his mind and adaptability are also good, so he is perfect as Gao Shun's assistant.
And Liu An always felt ashamed of him, so he took this opportunity to promote him.
In the guest hall, Liu An told everyone his thoughts and asked their opinions.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and finally focus on Lu Bu.
Liu An also looked at Lu Bu, this matter mainly depends on the opinions of Lu Bu and Zhang Fei, the Beigong Guard Ling is a Beijing official with 600 stones, and the county lieutenant is only a local official with 400 stones, which of the two is better or worse, everyone knows in their hearts.
So it depends on whether Lu Bu values the future more, or whether he wants to follow Liu An more.
With the bonus of the Dead Shika, Liu An can basically guess the result, but he respects Lu Bu's opinion and hopes that he can make his own choice.
Lu Bu pondered for a moment and knelt on one knee, "Let Ming Gong send him." Liu An hurriedly stepped forward to help Lu Bu up, "Feng Xian's heart, I can see what you think." β
There was a lot of discussion in the hall, and after a while, Liu Bei stepped forward and arched his hand, "Uncle Gao Zhi, Yide means, I need him to ask carefully after he returns, I hope my uncle will forgive me." But I am a little worried, the imperial court appointed Xian Yide as the Beigong Guardian Ling and Yulin Right Supervisor is to take a fancy to the bravery of the two, if you shirk and let them follow my uncle and nephew, I am afraid that the court will not allow it, and I hope that my uncle will make plans in advance. After that, Liu Bei surrendered his hand and returned to his position.
Liu An sat on the throne and thought carefully about Liu Bei's proposal, it is true that the lord of the court hopes that the brave man will serve in the capital, there is a consideration for the stability of the Han Dynasty, but as soon as the two leave, who can suppress the jackals around them, once they jump up, there is no tiger pincer, I am afraid that there will be a tragedy. While Liu Anzheng was thinking about how to solve the matter, Lin Fang also indicated that he would count the details of the county and raise filial piety for Meng Lan.
Liu An bowed his head slightly after hearing this. And Lin Fang said: "Ming Gong is thinking about Feng Xianyi and De? β
"Exactly, I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I'm afraid I can't do it, and I'll waste a lot of time, how to behave Brother has a good opinion."
"I don't dare to have a high opinion, but when I am close to the ministers today, why not?" Lin Fang smiled and spoke.
Liu Bei frowned slightly when he heard this, he also knew that bribing the eunuchs could get results quickly, but the eldest husband did something and didn't do anything, the current situation of the court and the eunuchs were inseparable, and as soon as he got involved with the eunuchs, the family was afraid that they would attack him en masse.
"It's a good idea to keep this word too much, but if others know that my uncle and the eunuch are colluded, wouldn't it make my uncle be made fun of by people all over the world, and what should my uncle do in the future." Liu Bei saw that Liu An had some intentions, and hurriedly got up to remind him.
Lin Fang also frowned and said: "Ming Gong, Xuande is reasonable, for the sake of Ming Gong's name, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, it is abrupt." β
Liu An just smiled and motioned for Liu Bei to sit down before slowly speaking: "Don't worry, you don't have to worry, I am free to arrange, there is no need to say more, Brother Shou Zheng will prepare the money and two cloths needed for me to bribe, and when the time comes, I will choose two henchmen and send them to Luoyang, and someone will take over." Xuande persuaded me to exempt me from Tian Fu before, but the imperial court moved me to Zhuoxian County, was it worried that I would become bigger? β
"Uncle Gao Jian, before I was prepared, I felt that exchanging military merits for land could gain reputation for my uncle, but I didn't expect the court to worry that my uncle would be transferred out of Wuyuan."

"What is the intention of the imperial court?" Liu An asked everyone.
Liu Bei replied again: "The meaning of the imperial court is stability, moving to the position of uncle is to stabilize the party, and the words of Uncle Yun are the heart of Uncle An." β
"Xuande is talented, so I can rest assured. You have not seen you for many days, so today you should drink a bitter drink and prepare a banquet to comfort everyone. β
On the same day, the cups and shadows were staggered in Liu An's residence, and the guests and hosts were happy. In the evening, a pigeon also flew out of Liu An's residence.
In the next few days, Liu An began to prepare to get up and go to Zhuo County's luggage, and then there is to arrange a place for private soldiers, such as Lin Fang, Liu Bei and others have to take people to go, otherwise the safety on the road will not be guaranteed, and then there is that after that, the soldiers of the county order are less than the soldiers of the family, it is funny, and the people who have been promoted by military merit are not as many as the private soldiers of the family, which is not a big joke in the world.
Now that the New Year is approaching, Liu An wants to go back to the village to see the villagers and his mother.
After Zhang Fei returned to Wuyuan, he also hoped to follow Liu Bei to his post, and did not want to go to the capital where he was unfamiliar. Not long after Zhang Fei returned, the ministers in the palace returned to Wuyuan with a new will, allowing Lu Bu and Zhang Fei to step down and die. Above the court, because of how much quarrel there was about this matter, it was not something that Liu An and others who were far away in Wuyuan could know.
Zhang Fei and Liu Bei also returned to Zhuo County one step ahead of Liu An, and the two of them were about to take up the post of Xinchang in the near future, and they also brought 70 personal guards and 100 private soldiers. Before leaving, Liu An saw off the two of them, and at the send-off banquet, Liu An patted Zhang Fei's shoulder and asked him to protect Liu Bei well, and also asked him to drink less wine, so as not to drink and make mistakes. Looking at Liu Bei, who was about to separate, Liu An hid his face with his sleeves and secretly wept, although there was a flying pigeon to pass the book, but I don't know when we would be able to meet, it was really a man who had tears and didn't flick it, but he didn't get to the sad place. The uncle and nephew said goodbye in tears.
Looking at the departing troops, Liu An had mixed feelings, maybe this is the bond of blood. He is also about to prepare to go, but the target is not Zhuoxian but Liangzhou, he wants to personally lead the team to escort Lin Fang to take office, of course, just for Lin Fang, he doesn't need to take such a long detour, after all, this journey can be said to be across the Han Dynasty, he went to Liangzhou this time to meet Liangzhou's strategists, the poisoner Jia Xu Jia Wenhe, and Li Ru Li Wenyou. The wisdom of these two people is superior, and if they can find one person, it will be of great benefit to their future development. After all, Cao Cao's success is inseparable from the help of Xun You, Xun Yu, Guo Jia and other strategists, Liu Bei's success is also inseparable from Zhuge Liang's departure from the mountain and Fa Zheng's planning, and the three generations of the Sun family also relied on Zhou Yu to gain a firm foothold in Jiangdong.
You can't imagine how huge the role of a strategist is in troubled times, and an excellent strategist can defeat an army of 100,000 and many fierce generals. And Liu An now has Lu Bu, Zhang Feizhi's bravery, Gao Shun and others under his command, but there is only one less strategist who can control the direction, so Liu An decided that even if he crossed the Han Dynasty, he might not even be able to live for a year, he would go to Liangzhou to meet Jia Wenhe and Li Wenyou, and he could only hope that Li Wenyou and Jia Wenhe had not been accepted by Dong Zhuo's Qiu Ba.
And Jia Wenhe and Li Wenyou are also the most suitable strategists for themselves, one is to survive, and the other is hoping that he can change the status quo of the world. Jia Wenhe is good at quick wit, not to mention that he has escaped from the chaos many times, and persuaded Zhang Xiu to see Boss Cao's son and guards once and surrender directly. Let's just say that he was forced by Li Dao and Guo Yan with knives to immediately speak out about the plan to counterattack Chang'an, this kind of urgency is not something ordinary people can have. And Li Wenyou is also a must, he assisted Dong Zhuo to stabilize Liangzhou in the early stage, entered Luoyang in the middle to plan the abolition of the emperor's reform, and even had a plan to sit firmly in Guanzhong in the later stage. This kind of planning and stability ability is also the existence of the three countries that can be ranked among the top few.
And when Lin Fang knew that Liu An was going to escort him personally, he was also extremely moved. The two talked at night before departure, Liu An held Lin Fang's hand and said: "Brother Shoujie, the environment in Liangzhou is even worse than that in Bingzhou, the Qiang and Han mixed people's customs are fierce, and they often rebel and refuse to obey Wanghua, and then they must separate Brother Wang, and they must protect themselves." β
Lin Fang was also extremely emotional when he heard this, and he secretly cried with his sleeves hidden.
On the second day, the two rode two horses and left in the direction of Liangzhou with their personal guards. When I walked to the city gate, I saw the people blocking the city gate, and several old men were in front.
"Adults can't go."
"Your Excellency, stay."
The people opened and closed their mouths to Liu An's words of retention, and several old men stepped forward and said: "My lord, Wuyuan County is located in a remote place, before the adults came, I waited for the Han people to be bullied, and now the adults are here, and they defeat others, so I can wait to live and work in peace and contentment, and now the adults are leaving, how can this make the little old man good!" β
"Yes, my lord, who can still call the shots for us when my lord is gone!"
"Don't go, sir!"
Liu An looked at the kneeling people with a headache for a while, it was the first time he had encountered this situation, these people were Han and could not drive them away. Lin Fang covered his sleeves and whispered to Liu An: "According to my brother's opinion, if the virtuous brother doesn't get off the horse and advise the people today, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out of the county." β
Liu An could only dismount to comfort the people when he saw this situation, and when he got off the horse, these old men knelt in front of him one after another and begged him not to go.
"Be quiet! Be quiet! Liu An had to shout while helping these old men to get up.
The hustle and bustle fell silent. Liu An stood in front of the people and took a deep breath.
"Folks, get up, get up. Since you have approved of my prefectural order, then get up, everyone. β
As soon as Liu An's words fell, he saw the kneeling crowd standing up sparsely.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't dare to say that I came to Wuyuan County to bring you a good life, I just defend the border for the Son of Heaven and guard the frontier for the Han Dynasty. I know that the villagers are very fond of it, but if there is an order today, the Son of Heaven thinks that the governance of the Five Plains is already in order, and the Son of Heaven hopes that I can guard the people, so I am moved to the county order of Zhuoxian County, which is for the consideration of the Han Dynasty, what is the difference between your actions today and those thieves who blatantly invade my Han only for their own personal gain. Your actions today are a compliment to my achievements in office, but your tomorrow is not something that I can accomplish alone, it is something that you need to do with your own hands. Today, the son is exempt from the field for three years, and you are not ready to farm now, but are here, don't you live up to my heart, and also to the heart of the Son of Heaven? Disperse the folks, disperse the folks, I hope that when I return to Wuyuan, this place will be even better. Disperse, disperse. β
Listening to Liu An's words, the people were ashamed of what they were doing now, and they hoped that it would be better when the adults came in the future. Following the fall of Liu An's words, the people also let go of the way, but one package after another was handed to Liu An.
"Take it, sir, it's a long way to go."
"Take it, sir."
In this way, under the send-off of the people, Liu An walked out of the jurisdiction of Wuyuan County.
The hustle and bustle fell silent. Liu An stood in front of the people and took a deep breath.
"Folks, get up, get up. Since you have approved of my prefectural order, then get up, everyone. β

It's not over, wait a minute
