Chapter 64: The Proposal to Move the Capital

Jia Xu is too late to regret it now.

After pondering for a night, he finally made a decision.

The next day, Jia Xu appeared in the General's Mansion wearing a military uniform sewn overnight.

His actions immediately caused an uproar.

Unlike other military generals, although Jia Xu was born as a military attachΓ©, basically everyone regarded him as a scribe.

A scribe actually wore a 'hu suit', which was simply a matter of throwing away the etiquette that the scribe respected, and he was willing to be a barbarian.

Sima Fang and other officials immediately decided to break off diplomatic relations with Jia Xu.

Jia Xu didn't care about the hostile behavior of other officials.

In fact, his own personality is not very gregarious.

He prefers to stand alone on the sidelines, quietly observe, and think quietly.

This time, wearing the so-called 'Hufu', on the one hand, was to show his attitude to Lu Bu, and on the other hand, he also wanted to take the opportunity to distance himself from other scribes, and did not want to be a leading bird.

Seeing that Jia Xu was actually wearing a military uniform, Lu Bu happily patted the other party's shoulder.

"Wen He. You don't reflect your style when you wear this style of military uniform. In a few days, I'll have someone sew a few more outfits. I believe there is always a set of clothes for you. ”

Jia Xu was about to roll his eyes.

I don't like the style of your clothes, okay?

If it weren't for the fact that I was trying to get rid of the entanglement of the other officials, I would have burned this suit right now.

Jia Xu hurriedly arched his hand and said, "General, this dress is not suitable for lower officials." Please also ask the general not to be embarrassed. ”

Lu Bu said with an expression of understanding: "I understand." I, Lu Bu, have never liked what is difficult for strong people. You can rest assured. ”

Do you really get it?

Jia Xu was a little unconvinced.

Luoyang, Xun You came to the capital of the Han Dynasty again.

Back then, Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, in order not to cheap Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

A fire burned Luoyang to the ground.

After the emperor moved back, although there was a slight improvement.

But it is easy to burn, but difficult to build.

At this time, the Luoyang Palace burned down and became a ruin.

The market is barren, full of artemisia grass, and the city is full of decaying walls.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Bu sent about 100,000 gold and 200,000 quintals of grain that day, I am afraid that even the Manchu officials and the 10,000 troops under Huang Pusong would be hungry.

But in this way, the Han court gradually became unable to make ends meet.

Except for ministers, or officials of great fame, who can guarantee supplies, the salaries of other insignificant officials are halved.

As a result, some officials from poor families have to grow their own vegetables, or go up to the mountains to find wild vegetables to survive.

Liu Xie sent ministers several times to send decrees to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Yan, Lu Bu and other ministers of the assassination and feudal frontiers to donate rice and grain and pay taxes, but Yuan Shao, Lu Bu and others used various reasons to refuse, and only symbolically offered a part.

The Han Dynasty, who was once powerful all over the world, has declined so badly, just like the Eastern Weekend New Year.

How can you not let Xun You sigh.

He came to Luoyang to present a performance on behalf of the Zhenxi general Lu Bu, and then he went to visit Dong Zhao, the chief speaker.

Dong Zhao was also a little surprised that Lu Bu's official Xun Yu came to visit him as soon as possible.

He hurried out and saluted, saying, "Mr. Gongda! ”

Xun Yu hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Mr. Gongren! Mr. Wen Hou admired Mr. for a long time, and specially told Gongda to visit Mr. when he came to Luoyang. ”

Last time, Lu Bu sent someone to send a letter, hoping to recruit him.

Dong Zhao looked down on Lu Bu and did not answer the call.

Unexpectedly, Lu Bu still sent someone to visit him this time.

For Lu Bu's attention, Dong Zhao was secretly happy in his heart, and at the same time a little moved.

"Shame! The last time Wen Hou was invited, the imperial court was in a difficult time, and it was difficult for the lower officials to leave rashly, so they had to politely refuse Wen Hou's attention. ”

The Dong Zhao in front of him was seven feet taller than other ordinary officials, his complexion was very good, and his face was ruddy, Xun You was very curious.

Many petty officials like him are yellow-faced and thin-skinned, and they can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes.

I didn't expect him to be so rich.

Could it be that this official's family is very wealthy and can support himself without the help of the imperial court?

I don't know Dong Zhao's family background, but he is an official named by the lord to recruit.

For Lu Bu's vision, Xun You is also very impressed now.

What can be valued is either strong martial arts, or talented, and none of them are mediocre.

Dong Zhao can be valued by Lu Bu, and he must be a capable person.

Xun You asked tentatively: "The thieves in the eastern part of the country rose up, and the Baibo army made chaos in the east of the river. Wen Hou was deeply afraid that the holy car would be disturbed, and wanted to ask the holy car to return to the old capital of Chang'an. Mr. Gongren thinks it is feasible! ”

Dong Zhao glanced at Xun Yu and thought in his heart.

It seems that he has mistaken Lu Bu.

Lu Bu was able to see the importance of the Son of Heaven.

Of course, it may also be his subordinates Xun You and Jia Xu.

However, being able to listen to the strategies of his subordinates shows that Lu Bu can discern and make good judgments, and he is a wise master.

Ay. I knew that Lu Bu was not as unbearable as rumored, and he should have gone to the other party early in the morning, and he didn't have to suffer here.

This time, Wen Hou sent Xun You here, which shows that Wen Hou still values himself very much.

I want to take this opportunity to perform well.

Dong Zhao didn't hide it, and said: "Sili has been barren for many years, sparsely populated, and the money and food are all supplied by foreign ministers, which is not a long-term solution. Therefore, it is the best policy to drive Chang'an. When a husband does something extraordinary, he has an extraordinary merit, and he should make a decision as soon as possible. ”

Of course, Xun You also agreed with the relocation of the capital, otherwise he would not have come to Luoyang to take charge of this matter in person.

Xun You smiled and said: "This is my original ambition. But the stakes are so high that some ministers may oppose it? ”

Dong Zhao replied: "This matter is easy. Clearly told the hundred officials of the imperial court to persuade them on the grounds that there was no food in Beijing, and they wanted to drive Chang'an by car, transfer grain, and have no worries about lack of suspense. Many officials will gladly agree. Don't worry about those ministers not complying. ”

Xun You knew that the person in front of him was very knowledgeable, and if he recruited it, it would definitely be beneficial to the lord.

Xun You held his hand and said: "Wen Hou is a virtuous and virtuous scholar, Naqi is strange, intelligent and courageous, and he is a difficult Ming Jun in the world. May you help. ”

Dong Zhao also knew that the Han family could not be revived, and only a few people in the world, Lu Bu and Cao Cao, could become great things.

Lu Bu values himself so much, and he can clearly understand the importance of the Son of Heaven, which is much more powerful than Cao Cao and others.

Such a person deserves to take refuge in himself.

He immediately said: "The general will not abandon each other, and is willing to do the work of dogs and horses." ”

Xun Yu was overjoyed and talked with each other at night.

After talking, I admired the other party's far-reaching political vision even more.

I also understand why the lord has repeatedly recruited this person.

The next day, Xun You went to visit Situ Wang Yun again.

Wang Yun was originally committed to Dong Zhuo and promoted to Situ.

As soon as Dong Zhuo died, he had no backer, and the little family business in Bingzhou was also occupied by Yuan Shao's subordinate Gao Gan.

Wang Yun's situation has plummeted, and even more than half of the disciples have been dismissed.

The successive changes made Wang Yun clear that if he wanted to gain a firm foothold in the court and keep Situ's position, he also needed a strong backer.

Hearing that Lu Bu's official Xun You was coming to visit, he immediately left his previous unhappiness behind. It is true that he is the father-in-law of Lu Bu's concubine, and he warmly entertained Xun You.

For Xun You's request for help and his approval of moving the capital, he was full of promises.

Luoyang was desolate, and even the emperor had no place to live, so he lived in the old mansion of Zhao Zhong, who was a regular servant in the original Zhongzhong.

Later, the temporary palace of the repairers was sent to have a place to live.

This temporary palace is naturally not luxurious. Very simple and narrow.

Emperor Liu Xie knelt on the straw couch and asked: "Wenhou Lu Bu played, said that Dong Zhuo and Yu Kou were bulldozed, the Xiongnu were repulsed, and Guanzhong was stable. The eastern capital has been deserted for a long time and cannot be repaired; It is also difficult to transfer grain. The western capital is the old capital of the Han Dynasty, the city and the palace, the money, food and people's goods, enough to spare, please drive the western capital. What do you think? ”
