I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 221
Liu Jian has been by the Luo River for two days.

Although it was only less than two days, these two days were more important to Luo Yangcheng than what happened in the past two years.

Luoyang's arsenal, Taicang, and the city defenses of the Twelve Gates were all handed over, and the Xiliang Army used their military deterrence to occupy all the lifelines of Luoyang City... soldiers, horses, food, and financial power are all like this.

Dong Zhuo didn't even follow the procedures of the Shangshutai, everything was streamlined, and he didn't play according to the rules of the scholars at all.

The public officials headed by Yuan Kai dared to be angry about this...but they dare not speak out yet.

Later, Dong Zhuo proposed in the court to overturn the case for Chen Fan, Dou Wu and the people in the party prison with lightning speed.

This move can be said to have caught the soldiers all over the world by surprise.

Although the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty and the Xiliang Tiger are not dealing with it, this matter is a matter of shame for the scholars in the world, and any enmity with the people of Liangzhou will have to be resolved after this matter is resolved Do more calculations.

Dong Zhuo was very clever. He took advantage of the fact that he reversed the case for the people in the party prison to temporarily stabilize the interest of the people in Beijing and control the situation.

If the scholars want to reverse the case for the party, they have to acquiesce in Dong Zhuo's current status.

This is tantamount to giving Dong Zhuo some time to rectify Luoyang City.

In addition, Dong Zhuo sent his Liangzhou warrior Li Jue as an envoy, and the scribe who imitated He Jin's notes for him earlier as his deputy, to visit Liu Jian's barracks and find out the truth.

The deputy envoy is called Jia Xu, who is 40 years old now.

When Jia Xu was young, he was inspected as a filial and honest man. Later, he resigned due to illness and returned to his hometown in the west. He met Di people who rebelled on the way. Let him go, it can be said that he is very good at self-protection, but also very good at strategy.

After Dong Zhuo arrived in Liangzhou, he heard Jia Xu's name, so he conscripted Jia Xu and appointed him under Niu Fu's command.

Jia Xu has been living in his hometown of Liangzhou for these years, and has always lived relatively freely without contending with the world. However, the Yellow Turban Uprising and the rebellion of Bian Zhang and Beigong Boyu in Liangzhou made Jia Xu feel unprecedented. crisis.

That is, the world may be in chaos.

He is a person who can see the essence through the phenomenon, and his vision is very poisonous and precise.

Jia Xu analyzed back and forth in his mind, and found that since the Yellow Turban Uprising and Liu Hong's death, the Han Dynasty had faintly disintegrated.

Once the Great Han Dynasty falls apart, the country will not be a country, will it have any impact on him, a Liangzhou native?

Of course it is influential!
Liangzhou was originally a place with frequent rebellions and wars.

When the court of the Han Dynasty was stable and the world was not chaotic, the ten counties of Liangzhou were already at war. Once the central government of the Han Dynasty collapsed and had no power to control the place, what would happen to Liangzhou?
The Qiang people and the Di people are afraid that they will compete to rebel. At that time, every Han people living in Liangzhou will have a personal safety crisis.

Jia Xu is no exception.

After some analysis, Jia Xu came to a conclusion that he must leave Liangzhou with his close relatives!

Regardless of what the states in the Central Plains will look like once the world is in chaos, but at present, the most dangerous place is the border county of Liangzhou.

Even if he can save his whole family in Liangzhou, once Liangzhou rebels like Han Sui and Bian Zhang come to conscript him, will Jia Xu agree or not?
If you agree, you will become a traitor. If you don't agree, you may be in danger of your family's life.

Therefore, after talking with Dong Zhuo, Jia Xu immediately agreed to Dong Zhuo's conquest and joined him.

As far as the current situation is concerned, Jia Xu can't meet anyone who can take him and his family out of Liangzhou.

Although Dong Zhuo was a martial artist in the border county, he had a high position and power after all, and he held a heavy army, and Jia Xu could feel that Dong Zhuo had ambitions to go east to the Central Plains.

For Jia Xu, such a person is a good safe haven for Jia Xu, who has both strength and the desire to leave Liangzhou, as well as his own ability.

Especially Jia Xu has no other choice for the time being, following Dong Zhuo and leaving Liangzhou is his only hope.

After arriving under Dong Zhuo's command, Jia Xu did not directly belong to Dong Zhuo's command, but asked to be assisted by Niu Fu's side.

This will benefit him a lot. Jia Xu knows that although Dong Zhuo has enough troops and power to protect him, the things he has to do are too big. You can hide your reputation.

But continuing can't completely hide himself, he also advises Dong Zhuo from time to time, advises him, and lets him walk the right path.

Some people may ask, since you want to be wise and protect yourself, why do you still have to advise Dong Zhuo?Just say nothing.

Naturally, this is not the case. The essence of being wise and protecting one's life is not to be dumb, but to properly advise the person you are assisting at the right time and according to the situation.

Since Jia Xu intends to leave Liangzhou, with his current situation, Dong Zhuo cannot be deviated in this season.

After all, Jia Xu is also from Liangzhou. Although he is capable, full of cunning, and comes from a filial family, a powerful family like the Yuan family doesn't take him seriously.

After all, most Central Plains people are prejudiced against Liangzhou people.

At present, the only person who can give Jia Xu hope is Dong Zhuo, who is also from Liangzhou.

If Dong Zhuo can't stand in Luoyang, what will happen to these Liangzhou people under his command once they are ruled by the Yuan family?
Even if he was not punished, he might be deported back to his hometown.

Therefore, in order to prevent myself and my family from being driven back to the dangerous land of Liangzhou, the top priority is to help Dong Zhuo gain a foothold in Luoyang.

Only when Dong Zhuo established his foothold in Luoyang, Jia Xu, who is from Liangzhou, is eligible to live in Guandong.

Then, he can continue to judge according to the current situation what kind of route he should continue to take next.

But this time, letting Dong Zhuo contact Liu Jian, the clan clan of the Han Dynasty, was an important step in gaining a foothold in Beijing.

Dong Zhuo himself is still dreaming, hoping to win the hearts of scholars by rehabilitating Chen Fan, Dou Wu and the party members, but in Jia Xu's view, this is nonsense.

Jia Xu was also born in Xiaolian, but why did he return home after staying in Beijing for a while?

This is because Jia Xu has seen through the gentry of the Kanto for a long time!
As Liangzhou natives, it is impossible for him and Dong Zhuo to be accepted by each other, there is no chance at all!

People in the Kanto region regard them as jackals from Liangzhou!
Although he knew it in his heart, Jia Xu did not tell Dong Zhuo that his plan was not feasible.

There are some things that cannot be clearly stated with words, and if he talks too much, it will only make Dong Zhuo feel bad for him.

Just let Dong Zhuo hit the nail on the head now. If there are too many nails and blood all over him, he will naturally know what's going on in his heart.

The effect of practicing is far more beneficial than it sounds.

But if you hit a snag, you hit a snag, and you still have to get down to business.

For example, in the matter of contacting Liu Jian, Dong Zhuo must not be left behind.

After Li Jue brought Jia Xu to Liu Jian's barracks, after reporting his name, Liu Jian summoned him immediately.

Li Jue was Dong Zhuo's confidant and fierce general. Although he came from a local powerful, did not read scriptures, and had an arrogant personality, he could tell the difference between the serious and the serious.

After meeting Liu Jian, Li Jue put away his old tricks in Liangzhou and showed a lot of respect for Liu Jian.

He first expressed Dong Zhuo's respect for him to Liu Jian, and then stated his intention for coming.

"King Chen Liu? Empress?"

After hearing Li Jue's inquiry, Liu Jian's face showed a bit of doubt: "Jian doesn't know what Zhiran is talking about."

Li Jue laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Liu, why bother to hide it? There is no impenetrable wall in the world! The King Chenliu and the Empress were acquired by the envoy. Everyone in Luoyang city knows about this, and the envoy wants to hide it. Can't help it, now that Luoyang is stable, Li Jue, under the command of Sikong, specially invites King Chen Liu and the Empress to return to the capital, and also asks Mr. Liu to make it easier for him."

Liu Jian also laughed loudly: "I'm afraid it won't work. I have already sent King Chen Liu back to Yecheng. I am afraid that he will not be able to return to Luoyang for the time being. Besides, according to ancient rituals, since King Chen Liu has been granted the title of vassal king, it is not appropriate to Since the matter is already like this, please return to Luoyang and tell Dong Sikong, please Situ understand."

Li Jue seemed to be in a dilemma: "As His Majesty's younger brother, King Chen Liu, even if he wants to go down, but it's not convenient to go out of Beijing without His Majesty's order."

Liu Jian said casually: "The matters concerning Liu's clan have their own principles. Taichang and others negotiated with the emperor. Why should Dong Gong participate too much? It seems to be meddling in the emperor's family affairs."

Li Jue hurriedly said: "The emperor's family affairs are actually equivalent to state affairs."

Liu Jian leaned forward and said, "Why is Dong Sikong so concerned about the affairs of King Chen Liu? If I didn't know Dong Gong's character, I would have thought that Dong Gong wanted to abolish the establishment, haha! "

What Liu Jian said as a "joke" made Li Jue's expression change instantly.

Jia Xu, who was beside him, glanced at Liu Jian in surprise, and then immediately looked away.

Then, Jia Xu gently cleared his throat.

Hearing Jia Xu's voice, Li Jue said, "Forget it, everything in Beijing is still undecided. The return of King Chen Liu and the Empress to Beijing can be postponed... Li Mou came here on behalf of Dong Sikong, and there is another matter."

"Childishly ask."

"I don't know what Liu Shijun is stationing troops here, what is the plan?"
