"You are a playboy, you should be disciplined." Xun You scolded with a smile.
"Hehe, just forgive me." Guo Jia just smiled and took a sip of wine, "I'll talk to you when I feel like doing something after being too quiet."
"Is that so..." Xun You did not continue to persuade him. He knew Guo Jia's character, so he looked at Xun Yu.
Xun Yu was silent for a while, then said, "Let's go together."
"?" Guo Jia looked at Xun Yu in surprise.
Instead, Xun You smiled and said, "It seems that uncle has understood. That's great."
"Why is this?" Guo Jia looked at Xun You.
Xun You said, "How can the orphans of the previous emperor be kept safe in the opposition? The general has a broad mind and I think he can tolerate the abolition of the emperor after he becomes emperor. But there are people who will make a fuss about it. As time goes by, the general may have his own ideas. After all, he needs someone to help speak for him."
Guo Jia understood and shook his head, "You guys are really thinking too far. But it's too late. Whether Di Xie can live a peaceful life in the future depends entirely on what he thinks."
"So, only after uncle enters the court can he properly guide the orphans of the previous emperor. Otherwise, how can uncle have the qualifications to contact the deposed emperor?"
"That's right. I was wrong... Let's not talk about this anymore. It's rare for Gongda to come back, so let's go have a good meal to welcome him back. But Dewen, if you pay, I don't have any money."
"You're crying so loudly when you have no money - OK, let's go."
Xun Yu pointed at Guo Jia with amusement, but also stood up from the table.
Seeing Xun Yu's slightly relieved smile, Guo Jia was relieved, so he carried the wine gourd and staggered out with the two uncles and nephews...
......
The Chenliu General's Mansion was busy at this time, mainly because the servants were packing up their belongings and preparing for moving.
There was no way out. The sudden incident in Luoyang forced Qin Bin and others to move into Luoyang in advance.
Yes, the situation in Luoyang was sudden and was not caused by Qin Bin.
In Qin Bin's original plan, he intended to take over Bingzhou and Jingzhou before leading his troops into Luoyang in the name of returning to the court to report on his work, using both kindness and force, and then officially taking over the state affairs.
Things are good now. Dong Zhuo is dead, and important officials such as Yuan Wei are openly welcoming him. This means that even if Qin Bin didn't want to enter Luoyang so early, he has no choice.
However, only the servants were busy, while Qin Bin and Xiaobai were chatting in a pavilion in the yard.
Xiao Bai said, "I didn't expect Dong Zhuo to die like this. It really caught me off guard."
Qin Bin nodded and said, "It is true that we were caught off guard, but we can now control the situation both legally and militarily, so it doesn't matter if we take control of Luoyang earlier."
Xiao Bai added, "Indeed. Speaking of which, Lu Bu is quite smart. He actually knew how to take advantage of the situation to deal with those ministers who were loyal to the Han court, and also paved the way for you, Xiao Bin."
"From a historical perspective, Lü Bu was generally very smart, but he was easily carried away and easily got carried away, which made him seem very brainless." Qin Bin paused, and then said, "Whether Wang Yun and other Han officials are killed or not has no effect on me. I rely on the support of the grassroots people. Some loyal officials of the Han court who can't cause any trouble will not become an obstacle. But it is still a merit that is not easy to make public. I hope Lü Bu can correct his mistakes in the future and become a qualified modern soldier."
"I think it's very subtle. After all, it's hard to change one's nature."
"If that's the case, there will naturally be military law to deal with it." Qin Bin paused, then said, "By the way, Xiaobai, I've thought about the marriage you mentioned earlier with the Han princess, and I've decided not to do it. First, given our current situation, we don't need to do this to reduce the resistance of the Han people. Second, I don't want a strange atmosphere in my home."
"Is that so? That's fine, as long as you're happy." Xiaobai shrugged indifferently.
"Oh? So straightforward?"
"Hehe~ The main thing is that among the currently eligible Han princesses, except Wannian, none of them are famous in history - if you are willing to accept Wannian, I will definitely persuade you many times..."
Princess Wannian, sister of Liu Bian and Liu Xie.
"Come on, how old is Wan Nian, really..."
At this moment, the maid came over and told them that all the luggage had been packed.
Qin Bin took Xiao Bai with him, and called Cai Yu and others, and asked Xiao Bai and others to get on the family-exclusive carriage. He himself wore armor and sword, dressed in military uniform, rode on the armored Feixue (a unicorn), and left Chenliu for Luoyang under the escort of 5,000 elite cavalrymen...
Chapter 368: Entering Beijing
In September of the first year of Chuping, the two main corps of the Qin army, with nearly 80,000 people, were commanded by Yue Fei himself, with Chen Qingzhi and Su Lie as deputies. After receiving the order, they quickly marched into Sili.
Sili, which is the capital area directly under the jurisdiction of the capital Luoyang, has seven county-level administrative regions under its jurisdiction, namely Hedong, Hongnong, Henei, Henan, Zuofengling, Youfufeng, and Jingzhaoyin. The first four are under the jurisdiction of Luoyang, and the last three are under the jurisdiction of Xijing Chang'an.
Now Qin Bin's target is not only the Luoyang area, but he intends to take over the Chang'an area as well. So after Yue Fei and Chen Qingzhi quickly took over the defense of various places in the Luoyang area, Su Lie led a reorganized corps through Luoyang, bypassing Gucheng, and directly attacking Hangu Pass.
There were only about a thousand Dong Zhuo's troops guarding Hangu Pass. When Su Lie arrived with the general's order, they immediately laid down their weapons, opened the city and surrendered.
Afterwards, Su Lie used Hangu Pass as his stronghold and divided his troops to attack the three places of Zuofengling, Youfufeng and Jingzhaoyin under the jurisdiction of Chang'an.
When Su Lie marched into Guanzhong, Yue Fei also led his troops to take over Luoyang and other places. During this period, he also fought a crushing battle with the rebel army of Xiliang.
Three thousand elite Qin troops went into battle, and without any casualties, they killed more than two thousand enemies and captured more than eight thousand. They shocked the remaining tribes in Liang Province and quickly ended the chaos in Luoyang.
During this period, the people who were most shocked were the civil and military officials in Luoyang.
After witnessing with their own eyes how the Qin army could defeat the invincible elite troops of Xiliang as easily as chopping melons and vegetables, the civil and military officials of Luoyang finally understood more deeply why the Qin army was able to sweep across the world in such a short period of time.
More importantly, at the beginning, the people of Luoyang were still a little afraid of the Qin army. After all, the previous Liangzhou soldiers had left too deep an impression on the people of Luoyang, so much so that they had psychological trauma. But soon the people discovered that the Qin army was just as rumored, with strict discipline and no harm to the people. If the people were in trouble, they would take the initiative to help. It was a truly people-oriented and righteous army.
The common people saw this and were delighted, and this was also seen by Yuan Wei and other court officials.
It had only been two or three days since the Qin army took over the public security and defense of Luoyang. Not only did Luoyang quickly restore order, but the people had actually begun to fully support the Qin army. This level of infectiousness and affinity was simply unprecedented.
With such an invincible army, there is no need to worry about not being able to conquer the world.
Of course, Yuan Wei and other ministers saw more than just these. They also saw that no matter what the great general did in the future, as long as there were no problems with the army, everything would be as stable as Mount Tai, and no one could shake the great general's absolute position.
Because they understood this, Yuan Wei and other ministers, although very glad for the decision to invite the general back to the court to preside over state affairs, felt a little strange in their hearts.
After all, people always secretly hold on to some unrealistic hopes. Now that even that little bit of hope has been taken away, how can they feel at ease?
However, no matter what, the court officials represented by aristocratic families such as Yuan Wei could only face everything with a smile.
They are not qualified to choose, and they are not even qualified to negotiate terms.
Besides, generals like Lu Bu were also shocked by the strength of the Qin army. They finally understood that what Li Jue and others said half a year ago was true. This army was indeed beyond human power.
Especially when Yue Fei led his troops to take over the defense of Luoyang, Lu Bu and other generals in the court had close contact with Yue Fei. In just a moment, Lu Bu's keen intuition like that of a wild beast told him that the fighting spirit exuded by Yue Pengju in front of him was so terrifying that he was a powerful existence who should not be provoked!
This is not the end. The generals around Yue Fei, such as Yang Zaixing, Zhang Xian, Niu Gao, etc., seemed to give Lu Bu the illusion that they would be killed if they confronted them, which made Lu Bu extremely unbelievable.
But this incredible feeling was quickly erased, and Lu Bu wanted to cry.
After formally getting to know Yue Fei's many generals, Lu Bu felt that the way Yang Zaixing and others looked at him was very strange. They even stared at him and made him feel a little scared. In the end, Yang Zaixing and others even urged Lu Bu to go to the military training ground to compete in martial arts and meet friends.
Lu Bu already knew that these strong men were not simple people, and he was unsure. Originally, he did not want to compete. However, Zhang Liao and other generals who were originally from the Northern Army and later returned to Bingzhou were all around. As the number one general of Bingzhou, he really could not admit defeat in public, so he had to bite the bullet and follow Yang Zaixing and others to the training ground.
Then, of course, Lu Bu was "bullied" by Yang Zaixing and others in turn, and was "ravaged" to the point of starting to doubt his life.
For the next few days, Lu Bu locked himself in his mansion, drinking and being depressed, like a walking corpse. If he hadn't heard from his subordinates a few days later that the general had arrived outside Luoyang City, Lu Bu suddenly woke up and hurriedly got ready to greet him, maybe Lu Bu would have been depressed for a long time.
In short, Yang Zaixing and others left a huge psychological shadow on Lu Bu, but this is also a good thing. At least after that, Lu Bu's conceit and pride completely disappeared, and he gradually became introverted and humble. If he is assisted by reasonable guidance, Lu Bu may really embark on the right path to becoming a famous general.
Let’s get back to the topic.
After Yue Fei's troops completely controlled Luoyang and its subordinate counties, Qin Bin also brought 5,000 cavalrymen and escorted a family convoy into the vicinity of Luoyang City.
Chenliu is only about 200 kilometers away from Luoyang, which is considered to be across the entire Henan Province. If the cavalry were to march quickly, this distance would not be a problem. However, Qin Bin had a family caravan here, and Qin Bin was not in a hurry to travel, so he stopped and walked on the road, and from time to time he would learn about the situation in various counties in Henan Province. It took him nearly five days to travel the 200 kilometers.
When Qin Bin arrived outside Luoyang City, there were already crowds of people along the road outside the East Gate in Luoyang City. At the same time, the emperor's carriage and a group of princes and ministers were all waiting in front of the East Gate.
At this time, Qin Bin was riding his horse in armor and looked very dashing, while Xiaobai was following him invisible in mid-air, holding up his mobile phone while turning on the live broadcast of the family group, trying his best to record this grand scene.
Especially when Qin Bin rode his horse and led five thousand elite cavalrymen towards the emperor's carriage, the scene became even more thrilling and exciting after the people along the way burst into thunderous cheers.
At this time, Emperor Xie was only ten years old. Although he was more like a monarch than his brother Emperor Bian, he was too young to be frightened by the grand scene. Even after Qin Bin rode his horse to the front of the imperial carriage and performed the salute with his fists, saying that he was wearing armor and could not perform the full salute, Emperor Xie was still unable to recover.
Fortunately, after that, the five thousand elite heavily armed cavalrymen behind Qin Bin shouted "Greetings, Your Majesty" in unison. The uniform, powerful and deafening shouts finally brought Emperor Xie back to his senses. He quickly followed Yuan Wei's instructions beforehand, and followed a set of procedures including encouragement and praise. Finally, he invited Qin Bin to board the imperial carriage and ride back to the court together, thus successfully completing this welcoming ceremony.
Chapter 369: Imperial Association
Qin Bin and Di Xie sat side by side on the imperial carriage. Of course, the common people were also present along the way back to the palace. The thunderous and continuous cheers and the burning love for the great general made Di Xie's expression gradually dim, and his worry grew.
Emperor Xie regarded Qin Bin as another Dong Zhuo.
Although Qin Bin didn't have the habit of directly prying into other people's hearts, Di Xie was young after all and didn't know how to be patient. Many things were written on his face, so after a little consideration, Qin Bin said.
"Your Majesty, do you know why the people support me so much?"
Di Xie was slightly stunned and subconsciously turned around to look at Qin Bin, only to see Qin Bin looking at him with a gentle smile.
This smile seemed to have a magical power to comfort him. Gradually, his heart calmed down a little, and he spoke as clearly as possible, "... the general... is mighty and powerful... is invincible in the world... and is naturally supported by the people..."
"Your Majesty, being invincible does not necessarily mean you will be loved by the people." Qin Bin shook his head and spoke in a calm, even gentle tone.
Di Xie, whose mind gradually relaxed, blinked and asked, "The general's benevolent rule?"
Qin Bin smiled and said, "You can say that, but it's more because the world has been in chaos for too long. I have given the people security and a new order. In contrast, the people feel that they have finally gotten what they deserved after suffering so they reacted this way."
"I see..." Di Xie responded, seeming to understand.
Seeing him like this, Qin Bin said, "At this moment, the world only knows me, the general, but not Your Majesty. What will happen if things continue like this? Has Your Majesty ever thought about it?"
"...General, are you going to be like Prime Minister Dong?" Di Xie couldn't help but shiver, and looked at Qin Bin with fear in his eyes.
Qin Bin was stunned, then he smiled and shook his head, "I am not Dong Zhuo, I will not bully you."
Di Xie's eyes lit up, but Qin Bin's next sentence left him stunned.
"But I'm going to take your place. Maybe you don't quite understand what this means now, but it doesn't matter. When you grow up and really understand, I will talk to you properly."
"I, I understand. The general is planning a rebellion?"
"Correct."
"..."
Faced with Qin Bin's directness, Di Xie was stunned and didn't know how to react for a moment.
Seeing him like this, Qin Bin said, "You still don't understand how serious this is. From now on, study hard and learn the truth. When you understand how serious this is and want to talk about it, we can discuss this topic in detail."
"Reading..." Di Xie was even more stunned.
"Yes." Qin Bin nodded and asked, "By the way, did Queen Mother Dong teach you how to be a king?"
Emperor Xie, also known as Liu Xie, had his mother Concubine Wang killed by Empress He in her early years, so Emperor Lingdi gave Liu Xie to his biological mother, Dong, to raise.
"Grandmother..."
When mentioning Queen Dowager Dong, Liu Xie couldn't help but his eyes reddened, but he quickly suppressed the urge to cry and answered as calmly as possible.
"My grandmother never taught me how to be a king... maybe she did, but I was too playful before and I don't remember it."
Empress Dowager Dong died in June of the sixth year of Zhongping. Some rumors said that Empress Lingsi, also known as Empress He, secretly had someone kill her, while others said that she died suddenly of fear. But no matter what, Empress Dowager Dong could be said to be Liu Xie's most important relative.
Seeing Liu Xie's stubborn look, Qin Bin reached out and patted the little guy on the shoulder.
Qin Bin said while the little guy was stunned.
"A strong little guy, not bad. But, it's a pity."
"pity...?"
Liu Xie was stunned.
Qin Bin shook his head and said, "For the next period of time, you will still be the emperor. When everything is settled, you can abdicate to me."
"...General, what if I...don't allow it?"
Liu Xie asked this question subconsciously, but immediately regretted it. However, at this time he heard Qin Bin say it nonchalantly.
"Some things can't be changed just because of your will. To be honest, whether you are willing or not now, you can't change the result, but I hope you are willing."
"Why, why?"
"Because only if you are willing, you will be able to overcome the hurdle in your heart when you grow up. On the contrary, if I force you, then when you grow up and understand things, maybe..." Qin Bin hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Your brother Di Bian, what's going on now, do you know?"
"......" Liu Xie's face suddenly turned pale.
Liu Xie didn't understand the first half of Qin Bin's words, but he understood the second sentence.
Because Liu Xie had heard about Liu Bian's fate from the palace people.
dead!
Qin Bin felt complicated when he saw Liu Xie like this. After all, as an adult, it was always difficult to feel comfortable threatening a ten-year-old child.
However, Qin Bin was also very clear that if he did this kind of thing himself, it would definitely be much more "humane" than if his ferocious subordinates did it themselves.
If Liu Xie could really be coaxed and overcome the hurdle in his heart when he grew up, then Qin Bin would definitely ensure that he would live a life of wealth and health, and even train him to become a qualified general.
