This is a special advantage of Lin Mu. As long as he is a famous person, Lin Mu can know his character.
Ma Chao is known for his bad conduct, and it is enough to be a fighting general by his side. What if he is returned to Xiliang and then rebels against the imperial court?
His father was controlled by Cao Cao and he could rebel against Cao Cao. Now that his father is dead, how can Lin Mu control him? Dig his ancestral grave?
The silence in the big tent was terrifying, just as Jia Xu walked into the tent.
"Wen He, Meng Qi said he is going back to Liangzhou, what do you think?"
Jia Xu is so experienced. He has lived in Xiliang for a long time, so he naturally understands the importance of the Ma family in the hearts of Xiliang people.
If Ma Chao is put back, who knows whether he will be Ma Teng or Han Sui.
"Your Majesty, Xiliang is now a piece of loose sand. There is no need to use troops at all. All the counties in Xiliang can be surrendered with just an edict.
But now the imperial court is extremely dangerous. There are rebels and separatists on the side, yellow scarf bandits in front, and treacherous ministers inside. General Ma's talents can only be shown in the imperial court. "
After Jia Xu's words, Ma Chao's face became a little gloomy, and the joy of Han Sui's death disappeared instantly.
It's just that because Lin Mu was in front of him, Ma Chao couldn't easily get angry.
Jia Xu thought more simply. Dangerous elements like Ma Chao could be left in the capital.
There are trees in the capital, what kind of waves can Ma Chao make?
As long as there is any dangerous person, just stick to Lin Mu.
In the past, Jia Xu wanted to test the limits of the forest, but now he found that the forest was bottomless.
"In this case, it is better for Meng Qi to stay in Luoyang for a while. Now that the world is in chaos, I am worried day and night. With Meng Qi by my side, I don't have to worry. When the situation in the court stabilizes, Meng Qi will return to Liangzhou. .”
Ma Chao raised his head and glanced at Lin Mu, but finally lowered his head.
"promise!"
Mainly because Ma Chao really didn't dare to fall out with Lin Mu in person. Lin Mu's nickname was the same as Jie and Zhou. Ma Chao thought it was just rumors from those aristocratic families.
Unexpectedly, when I came to Luoyang this time and asked about it, I found out that I had seen a living person.
The most important thing is that it is so powerful that it can even cut off the flow of the Weishui River while standing on the pontoon bridge.
Ma Chao didn't know whether he was protecting Lin Mu or Lin Mu was protecting himself.
The news of the defeat of the Qiang and Hu mixed armies spread quickly.
The first person to arrive at the military camp was Jingzhao Yin Duji. When Duji heard that the army had won, he immediately led the civilians to carry various meats for the labor force.
But he was rejected by Lin Mu. It was now the cold winter, and a large number of people moved from Zuofengyi to Chang'an. Food was already in short supply.
The food and grass for the military camp were supplied by the court itself and had nothing to do with the common people.
Even if the people are willing, these soldiers will definitely be well-fed if provided by the court, but these people are different.
When Lin Mu went out to explain the reason to the people, many people present bowed down one after another.
The army combed back and forth near Zuo Fengyi, captured the fleeing Qiang and Hu people, and then sent them to labor camps.
These people will be used to mine farmland, repair houses, farm fields, and be used in various human resources.
Only those who are strong and willing to surrender will be selected into the army.
Ten days later, Jia Xu took Hua Xiong and headed towards Xiliang.
Jia Xu was originally from Liangzhou, so it was appropriate for him to go to Liangzhou.
Ma Chao and Lin Mu returned to Luoyang together. When Lin Mu returned to Luoyang, Lin Mu found a man standing behind the officials, but his appearance was extremely strange.
Not only was this man's ears larger than a normal person's, but his arms were also extremely long.
There were two people standing behind him, one holding the Qinglong Yanyue Sword and the other holding the Snake Spear.
As soon as he saw such an iconic person, Lin Mu immediately knew who these three people were.
The emperor personally went to war, and now that he has returned victorious, the court will naturally organize a scene.
Lin Mu did not refuse. After all, Lin Mu did not fight this battle alone. There were also many soldiers on the battlefield who sacrificed their lives.
If Lin Mu doesn't allow the banquet to be held, what will his subordinates do?
The emperor naturally does not need any honors to be extremely noble, but ordinary people do not.
They sacrificed their lives for you on the battlefield, why are you so humble? When you return from victory, you have to take care of things and get rewards. Otherwise, who among the soldiers would sacrifice their lives?
There was singing and dancing at the banquet, and the monarch and his ministers were enjoying themselves. Since it was a celebration banquet, there were naturally not so many rules.
The banquet was held in the palace, and all officials could enter the palace. It seemed very lively.
Lin Mu's mood also relaxed. Now that Xiliang and Qianghu were defeated, Yongzhou and Luoyang finally no longer have to worry about being plundered by aliens at all times.
Seeing Lin Mu like this, the officials seemed to relax a little.
It's time to relax when it's time to relax. Lin Mu is not a murderer who thinks about killing people all the time.
All the officials toasted to Lin Mu and congratulated him on the victory. After some toasting, the atmosphere became even more lively.
Behind Lu Zhi, the three people standing were also smiling.
These three people were naturally the three brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang, when Lin Mu was confronting the Qiang and Hu mixed troops.
Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao fought for almost a year and the outcome was determined.
Gongsun Zan was defeated by Yuan Shao, then set fire to the city and committed suicide.
Gongsun Zan committed suicide, and these three brothers did not want to die with Gongsun Zan.
Although Gongsun Zan was kind to the three of them, the three brothers also fought bravely to repay the enemy. Now that the army has been defeated, there is no point in being buried with them.
What's more, Liu Bei's ambition is to help the Han Dynasty, not to be buried with him Gongsun Zan.
At this time, the three brothers, with dozens of soldiers, fought out of the city and ran towards Luoyang.
After nearly half a month of escaping, they arrived at Hulao Pass. Liu Bei took out the letter written by Lu Zhi to him, and the defenders of Hulao Pass immediately let him go.
The three brothers finally crossed Hulao Pass and entered the pass.
After entering the pass, the first thing to do was to visit his mentor Lu Zhi.
Although Lu Zhi didn't understand why Lin Mu valued these three brothers so much, he still brought the three of them into the palace through the banquet.
"Brother, this emperor is not like what the rumors say. Didn't they say that the emperor was Jie and Zhou? I don't think so..."
When Liu Bei and Guan Yu heard this, they were so frightened that their hairs stood up. They glanced around hurriedly, and then hurriedly covered Zhang Fei's mouth.
At this time, Zhang Fei had not experienced a series of lessons such as losing Xuzhou, so he was particularly daring to speak.
After seeing that the people around them didn't notice their brother's words, Liu Bei and Guan Yu let go of their hands.
"Third brother, please don't talk nonsense in the palace now. If you lose your life because of this, what do you want me and Yunchang to do?"
Zhang Fei then calmed down.
Although there were many people at the banquet, no one noticed the three people behind Lu Zhi, but Lin Mu's eyes swept over the three people.
Lin Mu said with a smile.
"Who is standing behind Lu Shangshu?"
