A few months later, the matter in Jizhou was over.

Liu Bei rested for a while, and then led the Qingzhou army to the west and went straight to Luoyang.

To the west, there are many Xiongguan dangers.

Such as the water pass, etc., are all a precipitous place that is not open for a husband and a wife.

The people guarding the pass along the way did not stop them, and let the Qingzhou army pass through.

Now that the general trend of the Central Plains has been decided, smart people will naturally not block the car with their arms and give their lives in vain.

It's just that these people are so smart, but it makes Liu Bei a little disappointed.

The way of this world is that there are too many smart people.

With the entry of the Qingzhou army, the undercurrent of Luoyang City surged.

The officials of the DPRK and China were originally divided into two factions.

One faction supported Liu Bei, thinking that he was a relative of the Han family, and everything he did was for the revival of the Han family, which was beyond reproach.

Naturally, many people also think, whether it is Liu Bei or Liu Xie, no matter which surname Liu is the son of heaven, this country is surnamed Liu after all, not to mention that even if it is not surnamed Liu, it is not a big deal.

It's just that these words can be thought, but they can't be said.

Now these people are watching from the wall, waiting to see a good show.

The other faction is naturally loyal to the current son, and believes that Liu Bei is now raising troops at will and annexing the Quartet, and he has a great heart of disobedience, and he will be in trouble for a long time in the future.

Now that the second type of person has the upper hand in the court, this is why he instigated the Son of Heaven to issue an edict ordering Liu Bei to withdraw from the army.

It's just that now with the entry of Qingzhou soldiers into the customs, swords and guns are about to come, and people's hearts have risen and fallen again.

…………

In Wang Yun's mansion, Liu Yu was sitting and drinking with him.

The wine was bought by Wang Yun at a large price from the reopened Qingping Liquor House, and the wine was naturally a rare and good wine, but Liu Yu, who was drinking, frowned, as if he was drinking a cup of bitter wine.

Wang Yun on the side leaned on the brocade couch, looking relaxed, and said with a smile: "Why should Bo'an be like this? That Liu Xuande has always respected you, and you took care of him a lot in Youzhou back then. Even if he really wants to kill, he will never touch you Liu Bo'an. It's us who should be worried."

Liu Yu smiled bitterly, although Wang Yun didn't like what he said, he was telling the truth.

He sighed, "I just regret that I shouldn't have listened to you that day. Now, even if he doesn't have that thought, I'm afraid he will be forced out of that mind by us."

Wang Yun, who got up slightly, just smiled, "Even if he really doesn't have that mind, even if you and I don't persecute it, but a prince who holds several states in his hands, will he really be willing to hand over his military power one day?" Even if he is really high-spirited and dedicated to assisting the Zuo Han family, how can those cronies under him who have followed him for many years and are bent on helping the dragon rise? Wouldn't you want to push him forward and go further? At that point, does it matter what he thinks? It doesn't matter anymore."

Wang Yun took a sip of wine, "Now it is neither the great Zhou that was at the peak of King Wu back then, nor the Great Han left behind when Emperor Wu was back then. He Liu Xuande is destined not to be the Duke of Zhou, and he is destined to not be Huo Guang. With authority in hand and ambition in mind, if you can't do both, then you can only be the Wang Mang who is not far away."

Liu Yu was speechless and drank a few glasses of wine.

Wang Yun's words naturally make sense.

Whether it was Zhou Gong or Huo Guang back then, he may not have thought of replacing him. It's just that the country was flourishing at that time, and it was not allowed to be encroached upon.

But today's Han Dynasty is already in decline, how similar is it to Wang Mang before he usurped the Han Dynasty?

Mo said that he Liu Bei was originally a relative of the Han family, even if he changed to a person with a foreign surname, and the power was so powerful, they couldn't stop it.

It's just that the Han family has fallen into such a field, who is to blame?

He sighed, "Xuande has always been measured in his work, and I will ease it for you. But you still have to warn those people to be more restrained."

Wang Yun smiled, "Being forced to come to the door by this biggest prince today, we cowards naturally want to hold our tails and be people. Otherwise, if you are not careful, I am afraid that even this life that is not precious will not be saved."

Liu Yu suddenly changed color, "Prince Master! Don't bother the Son of Heaven!"

Wang Yun lazily replied, "Got it."

…………

A few days later, the Qingzhou army came to Luoyang and was stationed outside the city, and Liu Bei entered the city alone with dozens of horsemen.

Now that Liu Xie is older, he has gradually begun to take over some government affairs between the DPRK and China. However, if Kyushu is now considered to be in its own camp, all the Ruoyang Imperial Court can control is the Jingli land near Luoyang.

After entering the city, Liu Bei first went to the palace to meet the Son of Heaven, Liu Xie was polite and thoughtful, and respected the imperial uncle who now holds several states.

The uncle and nephew have a lot of "heart-to-heart", as for how much they believe, only their own hearts know.

After coming out of the palace, Liu Bei did not visit elsewhere, and went directly to the Qingping Liquor House in the east of the city, which is still under his name.

Although Luoyang is his old place for him, there are not many old people.

Revisiting the old place, he stepped into the wine house alone and drank to himself.

In the next few days, Liu Bei was just wandering around Luoyang City, aimlessly, and seemed to be just interested in wanting to take a stroll in Luoyang City.

Then he waited for the assassination that he had expected but would take a long time to do.

The number of assassins is not many, they are all first-class dead soldiers, and they fight with no regard for their lives.

Liu Bei's escort was only seven or eight people, all of whom were first-class and first-class in the Qingzhou army.

What's more, one of them is named Xu Chu.

This person is a good man he personally went to Yuzhou to find, and he is also the person who wanted to draw a knife against Gongsun Zan that day.

Naturally, there was no suspense in this assassination, and then Liu Bei took the heads of these assassins to Situ's mansion.

Situ Wangyun, who had always said that he was not sick, got up to entertain the guests in person, his face was ruddy, and he did not look seriously ill at all.

The heads of the stabbing guests were placed in wooden boxes and lined up in the hall.

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Wang Situ is so good-looking, seeing me standing here safe and sound, it must have disappointed Situ."

Wang Yun nodded, but he didn't deny it, "I didn't plan to succeed, but I just did my best and obeyed the destiny of heaven. If it can be successful, it is the best, even if it fails, the Han family will not feel guilty."

Liu Bei sat down opposite Wang Yun, "Wang Situ has ever thought that the world is like this, even if there is no me, there will be others. Even if you kill Liu Xuande, what can you do? The way of the world is still the way of the world, it's just a change of person."

Wang Yun raised his head and took a sip of wine, and said with a smile, "Yes, what can it do? Is it true that when we see the way of the world like this, we must be on the wall and observe? The way of the world is indeed the way of the world, but we, the old ministers of the Han Dynasty, must do something, even if it is to take our own lives."

He stared at Liu Bei deadly, "Do you know that in the Han family, people like you are more terrifying than people like Dong Zhuo are in power."

Liu Bei nodded, "Dong Zhuo's kind of person is rampant when he gains power, and he is lighter than killing, even if he can be murderous for a while, he will not escape the disaster sooner or later. I'm different, I know how to take advantage of the situation, and I know how to hide it. Wang Situ is what you mean?"

Wang Yun smiled, "I'm going to die?"

is so open and honest, if he is Liu Bei in front of him, there is no reason to let his family live.

Liu Bei smiled and asked, "Isn't Situ afraid of death?"

Wang Yun laughed, "I'm afraid I'll die slowly."

Liu Bei laughed, stood up, and walked towards the door, "Wang Situ is old, and he is no longer suitable to be an official in the court. If you have come from the annexed state, let it be returned to the annexed state. I also asked Wang Situ to go to Bingzhou and say hello to Lu Bingzhou for me. I went alone, and I didn't go far away."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Wang Yun to answer, he went straight out.

Wang Yun sat alone in the lobby for a long time, silent.

He had already planned to pay the society for death, but Liu Bei's choice really surprised him.

Fang had just faced the old man who was still not afraid of life and death, and at this time he suddenly bent over, and his life's spirit fell to the bottom, as if he was suddenly old.

He sighed, Liu Bei is still too kind

Hands are soft.

…………

Out of Situ's Mansion, Liu Bei turned around and found Liu Yu again, and the two naturally did not have as tense as they did in Situ's Mansion.

Liu Yu looked at the junior in front of him who could be said to have grown up with his own eyes, and smiled bitterly, "Whether you believe it or not, I really don't know about the assassination."

Liu Bei nodded, "Naturally, I believe it. It's just that a kind person like Zongzheng, staying in the capital, sooner or later will be mistaken by those people, it is better to return to Youzhou as soon as possible."

Liu Yu sighed, stopped talking, and finally asked, "Xuande, now that you hold the land of several states, what do you want to do in the future?"

Liu Bei was silent for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Revive the Han family."

As for the Han family in his mouth, which line of Han family it is, Liu Yu did not ask again, and Liu Bei did not answer again.

Liu Bei stood up, turned to look at Liu Yu, and said softly, "Liu Youzhou back then was a good official who would often talk about Youzhou people to this day, and he shouldn't die in these tricks."

Liu Yu was speechless, no matter what Liu Bei wanted, what could they do except let it go?

…………

Liu Bei walked out of the mansion, and Shi A, who came with him, was already waiting outside the door.

Shi Ah whispered, "Those people have found out. Dong Cheng and others have been involved. Many of them are important members of the DPRK and China. If you really want to do it, I'm afraid that it will involve a lot of people, and it will make a lot of noise in the city."

In the words later, Shi Ah never said that Liu Bei already understood what he meant.

Now that he is in Luoyang City, he is already eye-catching, and if he kills again, he will inevitably have to give people a handle.

Those Qingliu literati now wish that he could do something so that he could be crowned with the second name of Dong Zhuo.

Liu Bei smiled, "I entered Beijing this time by edict, originally to exterminate the rebel party in Liangzhou. Now that these people intend to assassinate, they must have colluded with Han Sui and others. How can the crime of treason be mitigated? If I don't kill him, how can I show the majesty of my Han family?"

He raised his head slightly, and the murderous intent between his eyebrows flashed, "Since you want to die, how can you not fulfill them."
