Lu Bu and the rest of the state army quickly withdrew.

Liu Jian finally officially met Liu Bei and others.

Zheng Ci and Xiang Child's carriage has also been picked up by the Jizhou sergeants, and the husband and wife, father and son, are reunited.

Liu Jian hugged Liu Bei hard, patted him on the back vigorously, and then looked at him carefully.

But seeing Liu Bei in the dust, the bloodshot in the whites of his eyes did not subside, obviously because Yousi was overworked.

"Brother, thank you for your hard work!"

Liu Bei waved his hand weakly and said, "What do you want to talk about, thank you or not, anyway, my brother and sister and Xiang Child, I was delivered to you intact, alas, this burden is unloaded, and I will be much easier in the future." ”

"Hahaha!"

Liu Jian shook his head with a smile: "I'm afraid it's not as good as my brother thinks, you have unloaded the burden of Luoyang, but when you return to Jizhou, I'm afraid that you are still a hard worker, and you have to worry about me for anything!" The miscellaneous things to be dealt with in Jizhou are not necessarily less than those in Luoyang City. ”

"Hey, it's better than being scared here." Liu Bei sighed with emotion.

Afterwards, I saw Li Damu supporting Zheng Ci and coming to Liu Jian.

When husband and wife meet, they have a lot of things to say to each other, but they don't know how to say it for a while.

After all, there are a lot of outsiders around, and some words are really difficult to say in front of so many people.

Zheng Ci hurriedly hugged Xiang Boy over and said, "Xiang Boy, call Father." ”

Now the fragrant child is almost three years old and can speak, although he is still a little strange when he sees Liu Jian, he still screams crisply: "Father." ”

"Good boy!"

Liu Jian stretched out his hand to hold Liu Ji in his arms, and smiled and pressed his cheek.

Zhang Fei said with a smile on the side: "Brother, now that we have received Brother Xuande and sister-in-law, we can collect troops and go back to Yecheng!" ”

Liu Jian came back to his senses.

He handed the fragrant boy back to Zheng Ci, then shook his head and said, "No! I can't go for the time being...... Send someone to escort Madame and Ji'er back to Yecheng, where our soldiers and horses are temporarily stationed. ”

Zhang Fei seemed to be a little confused.

"Brother, now that everything has been done, what are we still doing here?"

Liu Jian narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "The private affairs in Luoyang City have been completed, but there are still official affairs that have not been done, after tonight, the situation in the Han Dynasty has changed color, at this juncture, we can't leave easily!" ”

Although they didn't understand the meaning of Liu Jian's words, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Zhang He and others still did what he said.

Therefore, Liu Jian immediately stationed troops on the side of Luoshui, and he allocated sharp soldiers, under the leadership of Li Damu and Yu Ze, to escort Zheng Ci and Liu Ji back to Yecheng.

Subsequently, Xu Rong, Xia Houlan, and the follow-up army of the trial and frustration also arrived.

After setting up camp, Liu Jian immediately sent people to investigate the current situation of the imperial court.

After some investigation, it was learned that Liu Bi, the Son of Heaven, and Empress He had indeed been arrested by Zhang Ji under Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo's follow-up soldiers and horses took him by surprise and took Huangfu Song's military power in Fufeng, and now most of the men and horses have arrived in Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo himself coerced the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother to return to Luoyang, and denounced the incompetence of hundreds of officials outside the imperial city for not being able to support the royal family, which affected the Son of Heaven and caused turmoil in the country.

And last night, in the North Palace in Luoyang City, He Miao, the younger brother of the great general He Jin, was attacked and killed by Dong Zhuo's brother Dong Min.

Of course, the forbidden army in the capital has its own commander, and it is impossible to obey Dong Zhuo's dispatch all at once, but now Dong Zhuo has dispatched a large number of his henchmen from Liangzhou, and now he has returned to Luoyang with the Son of Heaven, both in military strength and political name.

In this state, it should not be too difficult for Dong Zhuo to intercept the military power of Luoyang with the Liang Military Academy in the west.

And it was just an early dynasty, because of Dong Zhuo's rescue work, the Son of Heaven directly deposed Sikong Liu Hong and listed Dong Zhuo as the third duke.

All of a sudden, the entire Luoyang City underwent earth-shaking changes.

As Dong Zhuo's lineage, Niu Fu took over all the defense of Luoyang City and the north and south palaces.

Although the situation in Luoyang City seems to be tentative, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the real storm is just coming.

……

Coming to his temporary mansion, Dong Zhuo was covered in armor and observed the exquisite facilities in the house back and forth.

"Hahahaha!"

Dong Zhuo laughed heartily, came to the main seat and sat down, turned to look at the military academies, and said happily: "So far, the old man is in Luoyang City, and he finally has a place. ”

"Thank you, Dong Gong!"

After Dong Zhuo sat down, he saw Dong Min say to Dong Zhuo: "Brother, now that Luoyang has been decided, but the situation is not stable, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government are now afraid of anger because the elder brother holds the army, so he dares to be angry and dare not speak, but in the final analysis, he is only afraid of the military power in the hands of the elder brother, I am afraid that there will be some actions behind the scenes, and the elder brother should be more careful, not careless." ”

Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "Don't worry, the old man has already been prepared for this matter." ”

After that, Dong Zhuo looked around at everyone and said: "Regarding the authority of the court, if you want to take charge as soon as possible, it is nothing more than to take charge of military power, then financial power, and three human rights!" ”

"Now, most of the military power in the city is in the hands of the old man, among the tiger army and the forbidden army, although there are still some middle-level military academies that are not convinced by the old man, they are not the climate, the old man decided to make Hu Zhen the protector of the capital, disrupt the establishment of the battalions in Beijing, and the Xiliang Military Academy has full authority to coordinate its people, and gradually accept it, so that the military power is stable, as long as the military power is stable, the city and the court are stable, and the old man can be invincible."

Hu Zhen immediately stood up and said, "Obey Sikong's order!" ”

Dong Zhuo nodded, and looked at Dong Min again: "In the imperial city, all the inner palace guards have been replaced by our people, from now on, every move of the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother, the old man must have full control, without the old man's order, no one can enter the North Palace to see the Son of Heaven...... Uncle Ying, the affairs of the imperial city are all entrusted to you! ”

"Whoa!"

"It's the same with Taicang and the arsenal, all the people who are guarding, except for Sergeant Xiliang, don't think about the second person!"

"Whoa!"

Dong Zhuo stood up and said: "The ministers of the court, more than half of them are headed by the Yuan family, but it doesn't matter, He Jin has recently recruited those people, and the old man should personally invite them to come over to the house as the old man's staff, and also send someone to contact Yang Biao, the son of Yang Ci, Yang Jiaben and Yuan Jiaben are both the heads of the Luoyang nobles, but now they are being suppressed by the Yuan family, and when it is time to win over, we still have to win over some." ”

Dong Min said with some hesitation: "Although my brother's idea is good, it's just that people from Liangzhou such as me have never been valued by the people in Kanto, and even have a lot of derogatory intentions, even if my brother intends to show favor to the Yang family, I am afraid he may not get his support." ”

Dong Zhuo sighed: "What the virtuous brother said, the old man knows that the old man doesn't expect the Yang family to support the old man's governance, but just hopes that they can support the old man to do a big thing!" ”

"What does my brother want to do?"

Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes and said, "Brother wants to rehabilitate Chen Fan, Dou Wu, who were convicted of traitors at the time of the coup d'état, and many party members who were arrested and killed in the party!" ”

At one point, everyone was shocked.

"Brother, why is that?"

Dong Zhuo said with a smile: "To govern the world, after all, you still need scholars, but the old man was born in Liangzhou, and he is despised by the Kwantung Valve Reading Scholars, if you don't do one or two big things, in order to collect the hearts of the world's corporal clans, how can you lead the supergang for a long time?" Assist the Son of Heaven to rule the world? ”

The Xiliang tycoons looked at each other, and their eyes were full of doubts.

That's true, but will those scholars really recognize them as Liangzhou people?

The contempt of the Kanto people for the people of Liangzhou did not happen overnight, and it can be described as deep-rooted.

At this time, I saw that the Liangzhou scribe who pretended to be He Jinwen for Dong Zhuo and wrote military orders stood up.

"If Sikong wants to stabilize the government, just for Chen Fan, Dou Wu and the party to rehabilitate, it is not enough, this Han world, in the court, in addition to the scholars, there have always been eunuchs and Han clan relatives, now most of the eunuchs are dead, but the power of the clan is still not to be underestimated, when the first emperor was alive, but also more to the clan as an arm, now Jizhou Mu Liu Deran is stationed outside the city of Luoyang, Sikong also needs to send someone to contact Liu Jian, to obtain his support, or more stable dynasty."

Dong Zhuo sighed: "Speaking of which, in this Luoyang Rebellion, there are still two treasures in the harem that have been taken away by Liu Jian, and it is time for the old man to discuss with him." ”
