Luoyang.

It is already autumn, and the rearranged Luoyang City on the original ruins, in the depression, wisps of vitality are vibrant.

At the beginning, Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, and burned Luoyang, making this brilliant Han Emperor into ruins. When Cao Mengde ordered Xiahou Yuan to occupy Luoyang, it took a lot of effort to gradually clean up this ruined giant city.

And with Cao Mengde's various decrees, this giant city in ruins is gradually regaining popularity.

For more than a few years now, Luoyang has a trace of prosperity again. The entire Henan Yin, driven by Luoyang, has gradually healed the huge wounds caused by the war in the past.

Cao Mengde appointed Zao Yi as the commander of Luoyang to govern the government affairs of Luoyang. Zao is good at governing the people and agriculture, and has done quite a lot of results in the past few years.

"The palace has made all the earth... Looking back on those days, it's really embarrassing. ”

Xun Yu and Zao Yi rode horses side by side on the street, and when they saw the sparse crowd, they sighed in their hearts.

Zao Yi smiled and said: "Yao Cun is dead, and heaven is constant." Don't you see the ancient pickaxe Jing, Chao Gehu?"

Xun Yu smiled and nodded: "Brother Zao Yi is reasonable..."

He sighed and looked nostalgic: "The four hundred years of the Han family are finally coming to an end." ”

Jujube was silent.

Xun Yu smiled bitterly: "It's still me, a self-proclaimed Hanchen, to end it with my own hands..."

Zao Yi opened his mouth and couldn't help but say: "The three generations of antiquity, how sacred, but also ancient. Xia Shangzong Zhou, how enviable, but also ancient. The first emperor of the ancestral dragon swept the eight wildernesses, Dingding Liuhe, and died in the second generation. However, the death of the deceased is due to heaven, and there is no need to be nostalgic. The lord is eloquent and strategic, and there is the help of the immortal family, he will definitely create a prosperous era that has no ancients before and no one has come after, Xun Jun, you and I should look forward and encourage together. ”

Xun Yu's face flashed sadly, and he just nodded.

Then asked left and right: "Quickly go outside the city to see where Tianzi Luan has gone." ”

The attendants on the left and right hurriedly beat their horses and left.

When the group arrived at the city gate, they came to report: "Tianzi Luan has arrived ten miles away." ”

Xun Yu and Zao Yu glanced at each other: "Hurry up and greet you!"

A wide and flat cement road, stretching for ten miles, is a long pavilion. The Son of Heaven stays here, either for rest or for the dignity of the Son of Heaven. When the Son of Heaven arrives, he should be greeted with a great gift.

At this time, the young emperor was pacing back and forth in the pavilion, looking quite uneasy.

He walked around a few times, and couldn't help but ask Jia Xu on the side: "Mr. Wenhe, you say, will Cao Mengde accept me?"

Jia Xu smiled: "Your Majesty has asked no less than a hundred times. Your Majesty, the Son of Heaven, inherits the mandate of heaven, and Cao Gong is a Hanchen, how dare you not accept it?"

Jia Xu also said this a hundred times.

For this little genius, Jia Xu is not eye-catching. For the Son of Heaven, he didn't have any peace in the city. Often cranky, and have no own opinions. Sure enough, it was the death of the Han Dynasty.

It's Concubine Fu, although she is a woman, but it's much better.

At this time, a Yulin guard came to report: "Xun Yu, the chief of Cao Gong's account, and Luo Yang Ling Zaoyi, lead the crowd to welcome the Son of Heaven!"

Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, hurriedly rectified his spirit at this time, sat on the throne, and said to Jia Xu: "I'm tired of Mr. Wenhe." ”

Jia Xu nodded, walked out of the long pavilion, and after a while, led Xun Yu and Zao Qi into the pavilion.

When the two saw the Son of Heaven, they bowed down and bowed: "Your Majesty sees the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven is safe!"

Liu Xie, the son of heaven, squeezed out a smile: "The two Qing families quickly flatten down and give them a seat." ”

During the Han Dynasty, the Son of Heaven sat down with the ministers to discuss. Except when there are national rituals such as sacrificing heaven and earth, there is usually no kneeling ceremony, just worshipping.

Then they sat down on their knees and faced the Son of Heaven.

The Son of Heaven said: "I don't know where Cao Qing is?"

When Xun Yu heard this, he glanced at Zao Yu, Xun Yu said: "Yuan Shao of Hebei, Liu Xiang of Yuan Shu of Jiangdong, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou all have the heart of disobedience. ”

Liu Xie's heart was really unhappy, and his face was slightly annoyed, but he finally pressed it down and said, "I see." I want to re-capitalize Luoyang, have the palaces and palaces been cleaned properly?"

Cao Mengde's current political center is in Puyang, and Liu Xie certainly knows it. But he really didn't want to look up to people anymore, so he thought in his heart that he would not go to Puyang, but he would revisit Luoyang.

The meaning of the words, how could Xun Yu and Zao Yu not know?

Xun Yu sighed slightly, thinking of Cao Mengde's advice, so he said, "Please Your Majesty hold back." ”

When the Son of Heaven heard this, his heart trembled slightly, and he said in a trembling voice: "Cao Mengde is killing more and more?!"

All of a sudden, there was silence.

Xun Yu looked at this Son of Heaven with great disappointment, and said heavily: "Please Your Majesty hold back!"

Jia Xu sighed slightly, waved his hand left and right, and left the long pavilion with all the attendants, in the helpless eyes of the Son of Heaven.

So there were only three Sons of Heaven left.

Xun Yu stood up and bowed: "Since the Son of Heaven is the Son of Heaven, he is so cowardly, which really disappoints his subordinates!"

The Son of Heaven opened his mouth, his face pale.

Xun Yu took a heavy breath and said, "Your Majesty is here to bring a message to Duke Cao!"

Cao Gongyan said: Before the abdication of the Son of Heaven, he should respect the Son of Heaven and dare not slack off. However, the Son of Heaven is only for the Son of Heaven, living in the palace, not leaving the capital, and not having private contact with the courtiers and generals. All important military and political affairs are taken care of by Cao Gong, so there is no need for the Son of Heaven to worry. ”

Xun Yu said this, ignored the angry face of the Son of Heaven, and said: "This is the meaning of the Immortal Family, if the Son of Heaven does not obey, you should ask yourself." ”

Then he flicked his sleeves and left, and the voice came from outside the pavilion: "Hurry up and drive into the city!"

......

In late autumn, the war is raging.

Cao Mengde welcomed the Son of Heaven to Yu Luoyang, which immediately touched the nerves of all the princes. And the surrounding princes finally responded at this time and raised troops to fight back. Therefore, the war is even more than before. However, Cao Mengde had already made all kinds of calculations and resisted them one by one, which not only quickly smashed the offensive of the princes of all parties, but also achieved great results.

The elite of the Cao army, if it weren't for the fact that Cao Mengde hadn't completely digested the several states under his rule, and felt that his background was still insufficient, I am afraid that he would not be able to destroy a few princes this time.

But even so, on the northern battlefield, Cao Mengde also occupied half of Qingzhou. Zhang Liao broke Zhu Ling first, defeated Yan Liang who came to attack, and pushed the battle line north to the central part of Qingzhou, bordering Gongsun Zhan. went west into Jizhou, so that Yuan Shao was like a man.

And Guanzhong, Hanoi, and Hedong are all in Cao Mengde's bag. Sun Ce and Lu Bu have joined forces and are attacking Xiliang Ma Teng and Han Sui.

As for Jingzhou, Cao Ren broke Fancheng and confronted Xiangcheng across the Han River.

The so-called Xiangyang is actually two cities divided into two by the Han River, or it can be called Xiangfan. Fancheng is in the north of the Han River, and Xiangyang is in the south of the Han River. Because Cao Ren's troops did not have a naval army, they could only occupy Fancheng and could not cross the river.

As for Jiangdong, although Yuan Shu and Liu Xuan were reluctantly united, they were not united, so Xiahoudun seized the opportunity to cross the river with the strategy of attacking the east and the west, occupied Niuzhu, and seized the springboard for advancing into Jiangdong.

All of this makes the situation very good.

At this time, Cao Mengde came to Taihe Courtyard again, accompanied by Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven.
