Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 531

Liu Xie returned to Chang'an from Chenliu. At this time, no matter what his mood was or what he wanted to do, he was surrounded by unprecedented enthusiasm.Looking back at the history of the Han Dynasty, since the reign of Dong Zhuo, the prestige of the Han Dynasty has begun to decline, the people have completely lost the good days of stability and peace, and the entire Han culture has begun an unprecedented decline.

The constant fighting and plundering, the constant smoldering and wildfire, and the misery of the people, until Liu Xie turned out to be born, it took him just over three years to restore peace in Guanzhong, and the shattered Han Dynasty states and counties gradually Knead it into shape again and start to recover.

As for this expedition, the common people didn't care whether Cao Cao was killed or not. They only knew that the farther and more frequently the cavalry of the Han Dynasty attacked, the more stable their peace and prosperity would be.As long as you see the mighty army of the Han Dynasty stepping out and entering the city gate grandly and heroically in your lifetime, the great Han will eventually unify the country and restore China to China!

However, although the reaction of the people in Guanzhong was beyond Liu Xie's expectations, he was not happy at all.Because on the way home, he received the sad news that Zhong Yao had suppressed for more than a month: the No. 1 general of the Han Dynasty, Huang Fusong, and the No. 2 general Zhu Jun both died of illness.

This is the end of an era in the Han Dynasty.

Although Liu Xie didn't come in person, he could imagine that at the time when the Han Dynasty was at its most precarious, when the yellow turbans that filled the sky covered the entire land of China like an avalanche of cloudy clouds.It was these two famous generals who were ordered in the face of danger, endured the government's mediocrity and the people's anger, and resolutely used their own strategy, wisdom, perseverance and incomparable steadfastness to save the Yuzhu that was about to be destroyed. The Han Dynasty was full of fire and dust.

It has to be said that Zhong Yao is a good courtier who knows Liu Xie very well.This time, he did not set up a platform in front of Weiyang Palace to welcome the army class teacher. Instead, after informing the Taiwei Ma Rixun, Sikong Zhang Wen and other ministers and ministers, he ordered the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to wait for the belated memorial ceremony of the emperor of the Han Dynasty at the Yinghun Tomb. .

Outside Chang'an City, at the foot of the mountain.The wind blows the banner of Chinese characters.

Amidst the courtiers' solemnity, Liu Xie was surprised to see Fushou in plain clothes, quietly waiting for his return.Just when he was puzzled, Tai Chang Zhong Fu told Liu Xie in a low voice: "Your Majesty, during the funeral of the two old generals, the empress will arrange for them on behalf of the emperor."

Liu Xie nodded silently, and walked in front of Fushou expressionlessly, just like when the two got married, holding Fushou's hand and bowing deeply to the two relatively new tombs.Afterwards, the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty were once again shocked, not only shocked by the emperor and the empress giving such a big gift to the two old generals, but also shocked by the emperor's support of the empress's majesty in public again.

But at this moment, no one dared to say anything.The memorial service at that time was silent, orderly but dignified and solemn.

After all the sacrificial ceremonies were over, Liu Xie seemed unwilling to leave the Tomb of Heroic Souls. The wind blew his long hair like mourning grass on the Autumn Plain.He walked past the tombs of Lu Zhi, Ma Teng, Huangfusong, and Zhu Jun in turn, and seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing.He just involuntarily stopped in front of Ma Teng's tomb and gently stroked the tombstone.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at their young monarch, waiting for something.They knew that this should be related to Ma Chao in Kansai.

But after a long time, Liu Xie still didn't say anything, just bent down and grabbed a handful of dirt on the ground.He took a few steps forward and looked more intently at the four graves. After a long while, he slowly raised his hand. A gust of wind blew away the soil and sprinkled it down between his fingers.It landed on the grave with a flutter.

"Everyone, Yingchen, you all left too early..." Liu Xie's whisper could only be heard by Fushou who was closest to him.

At this time, Taiwei Ma Rixun came tremblingly supported by others. He enjoys the privilege of not worshiping the king, but he still insisted on prostrating on the ground with great effort, and took out a memorial from his arms: "Your Majesty , This is the last time that General Huangfu and General Zhu jointly presented the strategy of peace to His Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to take a look at it..."

After receiving the memorial, Liu Xie couldn't help but feel sad. On the memorial, he wrote neatly in the handwriting like a knife-cut axe: "The minister is only in Liangzhou, so there are people who rebelliously, each has different customs from the Han and Rong. There is a saying that 'If you are not of my race, your heart must be different', so the Han army has been conquering endlessly for a hundred years."

When the handwriting reached here, it gradually began to distort, and there were still blood spots: "Your Majesty, the son of heaven, pursues the way of life. In the world, there are no kings and people, Han, Qiang, Hu, Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Wuhuan are all kings of the land. Your Majesty, what is the difference between each other? Your Majesty, I heard that it is better to put out the fire and remove the salary than to raise the soup to stop the boiling. Although the carbuncle is painful, it is worse than raising meat, and drowning and calling the boat. There is no regret. The Han Dynasty should be tolerant and cage the four fields, The troubles of Qiang and Hu in Liangzhou should be adjusted according to local conditions, and benevolence and power should be combined, so that it can be solved once and for all. Your Majesty is sage and benevolent, and he had this heart in the morning. I am afraid and talk too much, so don't look at your majesty..."

When the memorial came here, it was finally cut off, but Liu Xie finally couldn't help his heart surge, and suddenly fell in front of Huangfusong and Zhu Junling, crying goodbye to the two famous generals who had passed away long ago—"Yizhen, Gongwei... Why did you abandon me so early!"

If it is said that the officials of the Manchu Dynasty did not know the purpose of this memorial, but Liu Xie knew the painstaking efforts of Huangfusong and Zhu Jun when he was halfway through reading it: If you are not of my race, your heart must be different. After all, it became the iron law that he could not violate the tide of history.No matter how much he tried to appease the Huns, how he tried to beat the edge of national integration, he could only walk on thin ice, for fear that a cross-border move would trigger a counterattack of Han nationalism.

However, with the legacy of Huangfusong and Zhu Jun today, the two of them are equivalent to carrying all the risks and reviling in the past.Liu Xie knew that after a thousand years, the two of them would surely be immortalized, but during these 1000 years, the two of them might become the sinners who were condemned in history.

Regardless of previous achievements, not afraid of fame after death.

The two famous generals of the Han Dynasty really achieved the realm of "pure ministers". They were loyal and great men who truly served the common people and righteousness, not the servile and pure ministers of the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Xie has traveled so far, and it is a great honor to have met these two!
"Your Majesty, the two old generals still have their last words." The Taiwei Ma Rixun tried his best to pull Liu Xie up. He was also grieved, but he still insisted on saying: "The two old generals will come to pay homage after knowing that your majesty's class teacher will come to pay homage. Please tell your Majesty, don't waste time like this, and when the chaos in Liangzhou is completely settled, come to this grave and let them know, and they will have no regrets."

"I, I see." Liu Xie looked back at the Tomb of Heroic Souls again, thinking that the two famous generals would be buried under the loess. From then on, they would only be accompanied by the autumn wind and cold moon, ghost fire and fireflies, and maybe they would be lonely.However, compared to the tragic ending of the two people in history, it may be a kind of luck that they are engraved in the hearts of the people of the Han Dynasty at this moment.

However, when Liu Xie was about to leave, he suddenly found Ma Rixun standing quietly in front of Ma Teng's tomb.At first Liu Xie thought that Ma Rixun was old, but when he saw his emaciated body gradually trembling, he suddenly had a very ominous premonition.

Hurriedly running to Ma Rixun, Liu Xie saw that Ma Rixun's face was ashen.Thinking about the cruelty of time, Ma Rixun is already seventy years old this year, and this time he is in love with the scene again, with great sadness and depression, and he may be about to die.

"Zhang Ji! Hua Tuo!" At this time, the only thing Liu Xie could think of was the names of the two famous doctors of the Han Dynasty. He hoped that the two of them could use their rejuvenation skills to extend Ma Rixun's life.

"Your Majesty..." However, at this time, when Ma Rixun was supported by Liu Xie and fell to the ground, his complexion turned rosy strangely, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The old minister has come here today, and I have long been in my heart." I have a premonition. Both Huangfu Yizhen and Zhu Gongwei have gone, and the old minister seems to be abandoning His Majesty, and His Majesty Wanwang forgives the sin of eating vegetarian meals with corpses all these years..."

"No, the world is not peaceful in the Han Dynasty, and I still need to rely on the Taiwei!" Liu Xie cried out in pain, he really couldn't bear the grief of losing three humerus-supporting ministers in a row in one day.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry too much. Our generation should have passed away long ago. When the Han Dynasty was in turmoil, I waited for an important position, but I was unable to return to heaven, which made Your Majesty humiliated and humiliated. Today, I see Your Majesty's great talent, great strategy, and backward minister It is far better than us, and I have no regrets when I die." At this point, Ma Rixun took a meaningful look at Zhang Wen beside him, and slowly uttered a very sad sentence: "If you can't help the Han Dynasty, you can Need to abdicate to let the virtuous, the old minister is confused, and he is still burdened by fame and fortune until his death..."

Zhang Wen's face turned pale in an instant, and now the Situ of the Han Dynasty is vacant, and the Taiwei Ma Rixun is about to die... the remaining Sikong has no achievements in his reign, and the position of the third prince will always be vacant when contacting His Majesty.Suddenly, he seemed to understand something.

"Pingliang's policy, Huangfu Yizhen and Zhu Gongwei took the old minister one step away, and the old minister can only second his last words, which can be regarded as a joint petition. As for the affairs in Jingpinghai, His Majesty is a heroic warrior with outstanding strategies, and he has a famous general who is a latecomer and good minister to help you." , the veteran is also not worried..."

Speaking of this, Ma Rike stretched out his hand tremblingly to grab something, and Liu Xie hurriedly put his hand in his.But Ma Rixun looked at Ma Teng's grave, couldn't help but shed a tear, and said regretfully to Liu Xie: "The old minister is incompetent, and he can only trouble His Majesty until he dies. However, General Zhengxi and I After all, he came from the same lineage, although Ma Chao was reckless, but he will eventually become a generation of brave generals, I implore Your Majesty to remember the merits of the old General Fubo, and send troops to Liangzhou to rescue that disloyal minister..."

As soon as the words were finished, the new wind came suddenly, and in front of the quiet Heroic Soul Tomb, Ma Rixun's hand sank suddenly, and he passed away suddenly.

In an instant, there was a loud cry, and tears flew like rain.
