The road to Luoyang is much smoother than in the past.

A few Hu cavalry rode fast horses and were opening the way on the official road, while behind Hu cavalry were several carriages, and finally dozens of cavalry followed.

The dress of these Hu cavalry is completely different from that of Xianbei, Xiongnu and other forces.

They wore tall felt hats, a type of high mountain crown similar to those of the pre-Qin period, draped in cloth armor, and belts made of animal fur around their waists, and were looking around curiously.

In the carriage, there were two people, an old man and a young man.

The old man did look old, with gray hair, even his beard and eyebrows were a little pale, and he looked very good-looking.

He was looking out through the curtain at the moment, and his eyes were indescribably lonely.

The younger one was a doll, and at the moment he was sitting very respectfully, with his head down, not daring to look at the old man.

"I haven't been back for decades, and there have been changes everywhere, but not as much as I thought."

The old man looked at the scene outside where prosperity and ruins were handed over, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The young boy hurriedly said: "Chenggong, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, he has been bent on the great unification and has no time to take care of other things. ”

Hearing his words, the old man couldn't help but laugh.

"Do you think the old man is despising Your Majesty? Do you want you to be a doll to defend Your Majesty? ”

The young boy smiled awkwardly, "It's just that Chenggong hasn't been to the Central Plains for many years, I'm afraid you don't know the situation here." ”

This old man is called Chengyi, and he is the long history of the Western Regions of Great Wei.

In terms of qualifications, his position was sealed by Emperor Wen Cao Pi, he almost thought that he was forgotten, and he was going to die in the Western Regions, but he didn't think that now, the temple finally remembered him, and the emperor issued an edict to let him return and allow him to return to his hometown to recuperate.

I don't know what it's like to inherit the shift.

As for this young boy, he was from a stable clan, and his eldest father had some friendship with Chengyi, and he was his old subordinate in the past.

And his father was on an errand in the palace, and when Chengyi passed through Liangzhou this time, the elders of his family asked Chengyi to take this kid to Luoyang with him.

said that he wanted him to find a famous teacher in Luoyang to prepare for entering Taixue.

Cheng Yi didn't refuse, and took this kid on the road.

This guy is still very young, but he is exceptionally intelligent and fluent in speech, not like a child at all.

Cheng Yi couldn't help but ask: "At your age, you seem to be quite clear about the affairs of the temple?" ”

The doll hurriedly said: "When my father comes back sometimes, he will tell me about His Majesty's many talents, and let me study hard, so that I can assist Your Majesty in the future." ”

Chengyi laughed again.

But he didn't want to, the little guy looked up a little angrily and asked, "Is Chenggong laughing at my ambition?" ”

"You boy, you are exactly like your father, you have such ambitions, how can you be afraid of ridicule from others? In the future, we must make persistent efforts and study hard! ”

"Yui"

The kid immediately relented.

Cheng Yi didn't tease the little guy anymore, and he looked out again.

It has been a long time since he left the Central Plains, but the changes in Yongliang are not big, that is, after entering the Sili area, some more obvious changes can be seen.

For example, the hordes of conscription?

Just pacified the world, did you use such a scale of conscription?

Cheng Yi was a little puzzled in his heart.

The carriage got closer to Luoyang, and the more uneasy Chengyi's heart became, he had been in the Western Regions for many years, and in these days, he had never returned to the Central Plains, and he had no idea what had changed in the temple now.

Of course, he still knows some big things.

Including the behavior of the Sima family, including many things after Cao Chao took the throne.

However, hearing about it is certainly different from seeing it with your own eyes.

He had never met this emperor.

What he knows about this emperor is that the Son of Heaven is fierce, his methods are ruthless, and he will punish the three clans at every turn and exile him into exile.

He sometimes exchanged letters with his friends in the Central Plains, but he wrote that the other party was gone, and later learned that they had been disposed of by the emperor.

This made Cheng Yi very worried, and he didn't know what he would encounter after returning to Luoyang this time, he must be vigilant enough, and he must not say anything rude in front of the emperor to cause trouble for his clan.

Compared with him, the little doll became more and more happy, and when she looked at the people who were working outside, she couldn't help but scream.

He was full of expectations for Luoyang.

After driving like this for several more days, they finally came to Luoyang.

In the distance, they saw a group of people waiting for them.

Seeing this person, Cheng Yi smiled and asked those Hu Qi to stop, and then pulled the little doll out of the carriage.

"Meet Chenggong!!"

The man hurried to pray.

This person is not very old, and he looks loyal.

This person is called Zhang Wen, which is Cao Chao's official order.

Speaking of which, he is responsible for cooking for Cao Chao and serving wine and fruit.

When the doll saw him, she hurried to worship him.

Zhang Wen smiled at his son.

His son, called Zhang Liang, has been smart since he was a child, and his appearance follows his mother, he is quite handsome and has the qualifications of a famous person.

At a young age, he has already studied the classics and can tell the truth of everything.

The elders of the clan said that the prosperity of the family depends on this child.

Settle the Zhang family, and their family is the descendants of Zhang Er, the king of Changshan Jingjing in the former Han Dynasty, that is, Zhang Ao's lineage.

It is also a famous family in the local area, and it has been filial piety and honesty for generations over the years, and it has never been interrupted, but it has never been able to reach the position of the top family, and there has been no big man at the level of three princes and nine kings.

They also hope that there will be someone in the clan who will change the situation.

Chengyi looked at Zhang Wen in front of him, he subconsciously wanted to ask something, but he still held back.

"I brought this child to you, you can take it with you, I have to go and prepare to meet His Majesty."

Zhang Wen said with a smile: "Chenggong, you have come from afar, if you want to see Your Majesty, you have to be three days later, today is my holiday, and please go to my mansion so that I can catch the wind and wash the dust for you."

Cheng Yi hesitated, "I am a foreign minister, you are a close official, if I go to your mansion, I am afraid that something is wrong." ”

Hearing his words, Zhang Wen laughed, "Today is different from the past, there are not so many requirements in Luoyang today, and Your Majesty will not care about such a trivial matter, please don't worry!" ”

Chengyi got back into the car, and Zhang Wen sat in front of him at the moment, telling him about the changes in Luoyang.

"Today's temples are not like the beginning, you are in Yongliang, you don't know, compared to the beginning, today's life is actually much better, although it is not allowed to be dispersed, and it is not allowed to drink alcohol at any time, but the rest of the time, officials occasionally gather together, or come and go, there are not too many restrictions."

"Your Majesty is a generous man, as long as he does not violate the law, he will not care so much about the rest of the things."

"In the past, those of us in the palace were terrified all day long, for fear that one day we would be executed for something, but now, except for those who ask for bribes and seize the land, the rest of us are doing well, and no one has been executed for minor transgressions."

"It's the same in Luoyang, those officials say in private that Your Majesty is cruel, if it was in the past, they didn't have the courage to speak in private! Now I can still say a few words! ”

Hearing Zhang Wen's words, Cheng Yi was very surprised.

Judging by the letters and messages he had received in the Western Regions.

It is said that this emperor is quite fierce and very harsh to the ministers and the people.

A series of heavy laws have been implemented successively, everything is strict, a bit of the feeling of tyranny in the past, the ministers are living very hard, and they don't even dare to gasp.

But listening to Zhang Wen's words at this moment, it is completely different from what he knew before.

Which one is true??

When the carriage of the two entered Luoyang, Chengyi suddenly felt that what Zhang Wen said was right.

At this moment, Luoyang is particularly prosperous and lively.

This is a completely different scene from Luoyang in Chengyi's mind.

He saw the vendors along the road shouting loudly, and a farmer with a hoe was haggling with the vendors, and there was no one around.

There were men leading horses who passed by with their heads bowed, and none of them looked at them again.

There were customers laughing in the wine shops at both ends, and someone could be heard reading poetry aloud.

Luoyang is almost full of people, carriages are connected to carriages, it is difficult to pass, dense, but almost everywhere you can reach is people.

Cheng Yi took a deep breath, where had he seen such a scene in the Western Regions for a long time!

Judging from the scene in Luoyang, it is not the cool law and heavy code he saw in the letter at all, and the road is the way to the eye.

This is clearly a very relaxed social atmosphere, and the faces of the people along the road are full of smiles.

It's definitely not something that can be seen in a cool atmosphere.

Looking at Cheng Yi, who was full of astonishment, Zhang Wen said with a smile: "It's still a time when there are few people!" If it had been earlier, we would have been stuck at the gates by now! ”

After they arrived at Zhang's mansion, Chengyi first sent someone to inform the emperor of his movements, waiting for His Majesty to summon him.

Immediately, Zhang Wen prepared a reception banquet for him.

At the banquet, Zhang Wen gave him a detailed account of the changes in the world over the years.

"Speaking harshly, it is only harsh on those high-ranking officials of the DPRK and the Central Committee who misbehave, and on those gentlemen, they can no longer wantonly accumulate wealth, and those gentlemen dare not go to the streets to make trouble."

"I don't dare to say anything else, just here in Luoyang, those gentlemen are more honest than the children of peasant families, He Sikong is staring at them, I wish they would make mistakes, they don't dare to make trouble, everything is fine."

"I still remember that when His Majesty had not yet ascended the throne, some people dared to be greedy for the money to purchase ingredients in our palace, and it was even more outrageous that a month's imperial meal would cost one million dollars, and nearly ten million dollars a year, which could feed an army."

"No one dares to do this now, and everyone who dares to do this has gone to see Emperor Taizu!"

Zhang Wen praised the emperor with a smile, and said secretly in his heart: No wonder your child is like that, the co-authorship was brought out by you!
