"Daughter, it's not my father who is saying something depressing. According to the current situation, the Han Dynasty is completely exhausted."
Fu Wan did not dare to tell this to Emperor Xian.
"Father, is the situation so bad? Is Yuan Ke so powerful? Your Majesty is talented and intelligent. He is only young. When he comes of age, he will surely be able to wipe out those traitors like Yuan Ke who are causing harm to the country and restore the great Han Dynasty. Magnificent."
"After Wang Mang usurped the throne, didn't Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu also practice for more than ten years to revive the Han Dynasty? My daughter believes that your majesty can turn the tide."
Fu Shou regarded Liu Xie as Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu. It seemed that she was really optimistic about Liu Xie, the puppet emperor.
"Daughter, I am not attacking you because of my father. Look at the court today, how many people are loyal to the Han Dynasty, and look at the world, how many people in the world obey the emperor's edict."
"Let's not talk about the Yuan family in Runan. Let's talk about Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Liu Yan, and Gongsun Zan. They still obeyed the emperor's words. Each of them separated themselves into one side. Although they did not claim hegemony, they all acted as separate kings."
"Your Majesty has no people and no soldiers, how can he come to prosper the Han Dynasty?"
Fu Wan was very unfavorable to Emperor Xian Liu Xie.
In his opinion, the Han Dynasty was exhausted.
"Father, is there really no hope for Your Majesty? At today's court meeting, I heard that Yuan Wei and other senior ministers forced Your Majesty to grant Yuan Ke the title of Bingzhou Mu and Luohou. The fiefdom is still in Luoyang. Yuan Ke's wolf ambition is obvious. Then Luoyang It is the imperial capital of the Han Dynasty, and he, a minister, occupies it as a fiefdom. What is his purpose? Isn't it just to tell the world that he is spying on the imperial power?"
Fu Shou said.
"Daughter, my father just told your majesty that at this time, the Yuan family is very powerful and we should not be enemies with it. As the saying goes, if we want to destroy it, we must first make it crazy."
"Human, it can't always be smooth sailing. Let's wait for the opportunity."
Fu Wan persuaded Fu Shou not to be impatient and to take everything slowly.
"Father, my daughter understands your concerns, and I will pay attention to it."
.......
clatter!
clatter!
clatter!
Along the way, Yuan Ke's sealing edict was delivered to him, and his large group of troops also arrived outside Luoyang City. Now the reconstruction of Luoyang City has been initially completed.
The city walls that had been destroyed by Dong Zhuo were also rebuilt.
"I respectfully welcome your Majesty."
Yu Qian and Li Ru personally led officials, wealthy businessmen, and ordinary people in Luoyang City to welcome Yuan Ke.
The welcome scene was quite grand.
"Meet Luohou!"
"Great Sima Wanfu Jin'an!"
Nowadays, the document conferring Yuan Ke the title of "Luohou" has already traveled 800 miles to all the counties and counties in the Han Dynasty, and Yuan Ke's name has become a household name.
"Excuse me!"
Yuan Ke walked out of the carriage.
He felt very excited when he saw the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians lined up to welcome him.
"Thank you, Mr. Luo!"
Afterwards, countless military and civilian officials who came to greet him all stood up.
Yuan Ke's pomp was no less than that of an emperor.
clatter!
clatter!
clatter!
At this time, the 60,000 troops and horses led by Yuan Ke personally appeared. They appeared in a mighty manner, and their military power shocked hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians.
"What a mighty army!"
"Da Sima is worthy of being able to pacify Han Sui, Zhang Yang, and Wang Kuang. How many people in the world can resist these tiger and wolf masters?"
"With the great Sima here, the Han Dynasty will be safe."
Many people began to quietly talk about Yuan Ke's army, saying that it had high combat effectiveness.
After that, Yuan Ke entered the city.
Check into the newly renovated [Luohou Mansion].
[Luohou Mansion] is the Northern Palace of the Eastern Han Dynasty that was previously destroyed by Dong Zhuo. As for the South Palace, it has now been completely burned. Yu Qian built various government offices and military camps on its open space.
As soon as he entered the mansion, officials from all over Luoyang began to worship him.
The Luohou Mansion is divided into the front hall, the inner courtyard and the peony garden on the northeast side. The front hall is divided into Wude Hall, Qinzheng Hall, and guard rooms.
There are many courtyards in the inner courtyard, where Yuan Ke's female relatives and many maids live.
He also went to bed and rested in the inner courtyard.
After meeting all the officials, Yuan Ke had time to meet with Yu Qian, Li Ru and others.
"Where are Sun Jian and his son?"
he asks.
"My lord, this is my fault. Sun Jian and the others ran away. I sent people to keep them under strict guard, but I didn't expect that they actually escaped through a tunnel and their whereabouts are unknown."
Yu Qian said.
"What? Sun Jian and the others ran away? Are there any clues?"
Yuan Ke asked.
"My lord, there are no clues."
"I suspect they have run away. They are few in number, only a few dozen."
Yu Qian said with full self-blame.
"Okay, now is not the time to hold people accountable. We must find the people and not let them escape."
"Immediately send people to block the eight checkpoints near Luoyang, and no one is allowed in or out."
"We must catch Sun Jian and his son."
Ye Chen couldn't help but guess that Sun Jian and his son ran away at this time. Could it be that they accidentally obtained the national jade seal as history said?
A national jade seal?
Although he desperately wanted to get this thing, he also understood that whoever got the jade seal at this time would be in big trouble and would be killed.
In history, both Sun Jian and Yuan Shu died because of passing on the imperial seal.
"My lord, I have blocked the eight major checkpoints, but there are many fishing boats on both sides of Luoshui River. It is very likely that they will leave in small boats."
Yu Qian said.
"Forget it, just try your best. If you can catch someone, that's fine. If you can't catch them, that's it. Just let them go."
When Yuan Ke heard this, he didn't force it.
"promise!"
Yu Qian clasped his fists and said.
After that, he passed on Yuan Ke's words.
[Arresting Sun Jian and others]
When he first arrived in Luoyang, Yuan Ke had no other instructions. He just asked the troops brought by General Yu Qian to make proper arrangements. As for political affairs, he was not in a hurry and took care of them slowly.
The main direction in the future is to conquer Luoyang and build this place into his base camp. By then, he will not only own the land of Sanqin, but also the land of Han, Zhao and Wei. He can dominate the world in just a few years of operation.
It should be noted that at the beginning, the Qin State only had the Guanzhong area and achieved the great feat of destroying the six kingdoms. Now, it not only has the Guanzhong area, but also the Han, Zhao, and Wei areas during the Warring States Period. Get it.
That night, Yuan Ke held a banquet in honor of various civil and military officials in Luoyang.
In Luohou Mansion, everyone was drinking happily.
Xu Yang was at the same table as Cheng Yaojin and others. He was in a very bad mood along the way. Now he was not in the slightest mood and was drinking alone. After a while, he became a little drunk.
"Comrades, let me propose a toast to Da Sima. Without Da Sima Shenwu, we in Luoyang would not be as happy as we are now."
An official suddenly stood up and toasted Yuan Ke.
This person's name is: Sun Nanxing.
Now Tian is the magistrate of Luoyang County, Henan County.
"Here's to Great Sima!"
As soon as these words came out, most of the officials present stood up and toasted to Yuan Ke. Only Xu Yang was still drinking alone and did not toast to Yuan Ke.
"Mr. Xu, sir——"
When Cheng Yaojin saw this, he said that Xu Yang had drunk too much.
He couldn't help but remind Xu Yang in a low voice.
However, Xu Yang pushed Cheng Yaojin away, and then said with great dissatisfaction: "My lords, your toast, what does it have to do with me, a commoner, please don't worry about me."
Afterwards, he drank alone.
Yuan Ke, who was in the main position, was not angry when he heard this. He understood that he had left this poor and arrogant gentleman for several days. This guy should be so angry. Otherwise, he would not be the person in history who dared to fight with Cao Cao. Xu Shu was the one who challenged him.
Xu Shu was not punished, but he drank with the officials.
"I have received your majesty's favor and made a military expedition to Luoyang. I hope you can help me in the future."
"We will abide by whatever Grand Sima says."
Afterwards, all the officials present expressed their loyalty to Yuan Ke in unison.
"good!"
After drinking for less than three rounds, Xu Yang left to his own devices.
He was quite lonely.
"well--"
When Yuan Ke saw this, he couldn't help but secretly reflect on whether he had ignored the other party too much.
After that, he no longer planned to remain indifferent to Xu Yang.
After three rounds, he excused himself from the banquet and came to entertain the officials.
Under the guidance of Cheng Yaojin, he came to look for Xu Yang.
At this time, Xu Yang had returned to his residence and was sleeping with his head covered. When Yuan Ke came to his residence and saw that his residence was deserted, he also blamed himself and knew that he did not care enough for his subordinates.
"Lord, I'm here to wake you up."
Cheng Yaojin whispered.
"No, sir, he's drunk. Let him rest in peace."
Yuan Ke stopped him.
When he saw Xu Yang sleeping with his clothes on without even taking off his shoes, he went up to him personally, took off his shoes, took off his clothes, and covered him with a quilt.
"Lord, he-"
Cheng Yaojin was quite surprised to see Yuan Ke personally taking off Xu Yang's shoes and changing clothes.
At the same time, I was also quite moved.
He said in his heart that it is rare to find a Lord who cares so much about his subordinates in a thousand years.
His loyalty is getting stronger.
"Old Cheng, go call some maids to come over and take good care of Mr. Xu."
Yuan Ke personally gave the instructions.
"yes!"
Afterwards, Yuan Ke returned to the banquet room and began to get closer to the officials.
After a while of greetings, he called over Yu Qian and Li Ru.
"Go find a house for me."
