After the brief exchange, Li Xiang was in a good mood. What I have seen along the way is enough to illustrate the achievements under his governance.
And, most importantly, public support is available. Although he has only moved to a few counties in a small area like Sizhou, the hearts of the people here are already moving towards him. He who wins the hearts and minds of the people wins the world. With this people's hearts and minds, his imperial power and hegemony have laid the strongest foundation.
"Brother, let's eat something before we go on our way. It's still a long way from the county town, so don't miss your meal." After stopping Li Xiang, who was about to get up and leave after asking about the situation, the man said boldly.
At this time, these low-level people are so simple.
"Brother, it's not easy for you at home, so we won't bother you." Even if Li Xiang's trip this time does not count the guards hidden in the dark, there are nearly twenty people on the surface alone. Apart from literati such as Guo Jia and Xun Yu, others eat a lot, and they are all big-bellied men. Especially Xing Tian and Dian Wei, they are definitely the best candidates to compete for the Big Stomach King.
If they stay here to eat, they may have to eat this old man's rations for more than a month.
"Haha, it's okay. Some time ago, a few brothers and I helped the county government dig rivers and repair official roads. We received a lot of pot cakes and yam eggs while working. You just happened to be here. Let's eat something hot before leaving. "The middle-aged farmer smiled and said sincerely.
"That's... okay, but we can't eat from you for free. We have to give you money. If you don't want it, we won't eat it." Feeling the simplicity of the other party, Li Xiang also felt warm in his heart, and immediately asked Dian Wei to pay him.
However, this man was not willing to take it, but with Dian Wei's strength, he wanted to force it. Such an ordinary person had no power to resist, so he had to accept it. He was secretly surprised that Dian Wei was powerful, but he also realized that those copper coins were very important, far more valuable than his own pot cakes.

While Li Xiang was visiting privately incognito, Luoyang began to become restless again.
"Brother Zhaoxuan, this is true. Thief Li has really left Luoyang!" Fu Wan said in a lowered voice in the Fu Mansion. But from his expression, you can see his inner excitement.
In the harem of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, the only two concubines whom Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty could trust were Empress Fu and Guiren Dong. Of course, as the emperor, Liu Xie didn't know how much of this trust was true or false. The imperialists were mainly the relatives represented by these two concubines.
At the beginning, after the Yidaizhao incident, a series of imperial parties represented by Dong Cheng were ruthlessly wiped out by Yang Jian, and only Dong Guiren survived. After all, Yang Jian is not Cao Cao, and the two men's acting styles are also different. Yang Jian has done a better job in surface engineering.
Therefore, Dong Guiren, who lost the support of his relatives and was no longer a threat, was lucky to be spared his life. You know, in the historical trajectory that should have been there, after Dong Guiren's father was killed by Cao Cao, she herself was also implicated. Although Dong Guiren was pregnant, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty interceded with Cao Cao several times for her, but she was still killed.
After the incident of Dong Cheng's clothes and the imperial edict, it was not only him who was affected, but also the imperial party represented by another relative, Fu Wan. Affected by this incident, Yang Jian pressed Fu Wan step by step, constantly weakening Fu Wan's influence, and Fu Wan was even forced to pretend to be ill for several months.
It was precisely because Dong Cheng died and Fu Wan was severely suppressed that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had to switch from relying on his relatives to relying on the eunuch group represented by Wei Zhongxian to develop his power.
However, this force that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty had finally developed was completely eliminated by Yang Jian during the Yongliang War. Since then, the imperial party has suffered heavy losses and lost seventy-eight percent of its strength.
After the demise of Yang Jian's power, the remaining imperial party was struggling to survive beside Yang Biao and Fu Wan, who had come back again. Of course, the target of his struggle has also changed from Yang Jian to Li Xiang.
After all, in the eyes of these imperialists, there is basically no difference between Li Xiang and Yang Jian. They both control the entire court and treat the emperor as a puppet. When necessary, they directly discussed and discussed symbolically, forcing the emperor to issue an imperial edict. Sometimes even this procedure was omitted and the imperial edict was issued directly in private in the name of the emperor.
"Of course it's true!" Gao Jiong said without any doubt, "At the beginning, after the Jin Dynasty defeated Chang'an, many soldiers of the Xiaoguo, Yinqiang and Feixiong armies under the Sui King were captured by the Jin Dynasty and were reorganized into Xian Deng and Mo. The sword, the trap, and even the Tiger Guard troops. This news was obtained by me from the inside of the Tiger Guard!"
Elite troops such as the Xianden Dead Soldiers, the Modao Army, the Falling Camp, and the Tiger Guard need to be replaced every time after a battle loss. The quality requirements in all aspects are also very high. It does not mean that they can be replenished just by replenishing them.
As the Xiaoguo Army, Silver Spear Army, and Flying Bear Army are equally elite units, these troops can naturally meet the requirements. Therefore, after being captured, most of them were incorporated into the elite troops under Li Xiang's command to make up for the battle losses caused by these troops in this war. Of course, in this process, various persuasion and education are inevitable to cultivate their loyalty.
Therefore, Gao Jiong's statement that there was an insider in Huwei did not arouse Fu Wan's suspicion. As Li Xiang's personal bodyguard, the Tiger Guard has been protecting Li Xiang. It may not be possible to determine Li Xiang's route, but the approximate location can still be known. From this point of view, Fu Wan almost believed what Gao Jiong said.
"If this is true, this is a great opportunity to kill Thief Li!" Fu Wan, who had almost believed the news, said happily, but had to lower his voice.
After experiencing the Yang Jian era, the imperial party that can still survive, among other things, has indeed increased greatly in terms of caution. After all, they don't know how many spies have been planted in their mansion. If you don’t lower your voice as much as possible, what if the wall has ears?
To be honest, the ideas of these imperialists are too simple. In their eyes, as long as Li Xiang is killed, the Jin army will immediately fall into a leaderless and fragmented situation.
At that time, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty could win over various high-ranking officials one by one by promising generous salaries, and control these fragmented Jin army forces one by one. In this way, they can perfectly accept Li Xiang's power.
Next, they will sweep across the world in various ways, defeating various princes in various ways, and once again create the great miracle of Guangwu Zhongxing.
