"The king of Zhou came to Mai, and the six divisions came to him. He was in the clouds and Han Dynasty, and he was a leader in the sky." [Poetry·Daya·Pu Pu]
The third day of May in the third year of Jian'an.
Fortunately, the chariot driver went up to the forest and went through the Yulin. The soldiers were fierce. There were more than 40,000 people in the camps of the Northern Army. They issued orders for rewards and punishments in the army, and also reported to the Tiandi Ancestral Temple and Sheji.
Order all princes, pastors and guards and below.
say:
"...The Yuan family took advantage of the provocation and acted domineeringly, stealing the rivers and Huaihe Rivers, destroying the gates and courtyards, and smelling the filth. Since the beginning of the chaos, I have relied on the princes and princes to stay up late at night and take care of them in the dark.
To reward those who are loyal and loyal. Today, Zhu Ming is in the morning, the cool breeze is on the holiday, and it is the right time to fight with the troops. I will personally guard the Sixth Division, visit the old capital, and respectfully carry out heaven's punishment. With the spirit of my ancestors and the strength of the soldiers, I will
Order all the troops and march forward as scheduled to complete the territory."
After the edict, an appeal was published. The content of the appeal was jointly written by Lantai's order Shi Caiyong, secretary Lang Wangcan and others. It was of great literary talent and sharp tone. Among them, the Yuan family burned the Qingsuo Gate, killed the palace people indiscriminately, slandered the Supreme Being, and showed no mercy.
He was charged with more than a dozen crimes, including national calamity, and recounted the destiny of the Han Dynasty for 400 years. Today is the day to bring order to the chaos. Finally, he proposed that all people in the world who are loyal to the Han Dynasty should work hard and want to repay the imperial court.
The next day, the imperial edict ordered Taiwei Dong Cheng and Sikong Zhao Wen to guard Chang'an, and Hussar General Huangfu Song to supervise the military affairs of Yongliang and the three prefectures. He also sent the generals of Hu Ben Zhonglang Ju Jun and Yu Lin Zhonglang General Zhang Meng to the north.
In the middle of the army, the captain Gao Shun of the middle base, the captain of the infantry Zhao Yun, the captain of archery Yan Yan, the captain of the garrison and cavalry Colonel Jiang Xuan, the captain of Changshui Pang De and other 40,000 infantrymen accompanied the emperor and sent a message all the way to the east of the road.
Valley, conquest and disobedience.
For those generals who stayed at the garrison and failed to participate in the Eastern Expedition, such as Ninghu General Xu Rong, Anji General Zhang Ji, Pingdi General Ma Teng and others, the emperor also gave certain rewards and compensations to ensure the peace of mind of the troops in the rear.
The imperial court launched an eastward expedition, with the intention of completing all its achievements in one battle. In mid-May, when the emperor personally led the northern and southern armies to Huayin for rest, he ordered Situ, who was accompanying him, to record the affairs of the minister Huang Wan and issue several edicts in succession.
First, Liu Yu, the governor of Bingzhou, led General Pingbei to supervise the military affairs of Youji during the holiday. He led the Huns Zhonglang General Zhang Liao and other troops to attack Changshan and Zhongshan. The second was to order former general Zhu Jun to supervise the three states of Jingyang and Henan.
In military affairs, he led the generals Xu Huang, Tian Chou, Liu Bei and other soldiers of the Fu army to attack Yuan Shu. Then Cao Cao, as the general of Zhendong, supervised Qing Xu's military affairs and led his troops to attack Yuan Tan, Lu Bu and Chang Xi.
The imperial court sent out a total of four armies, divided into three directions, with the Northern and Southern Army as the main force, supplemented by soldiers and horses from all walks of life. There were a total of 150,000 troops, known to the outside world as 300,000, and their prestige shocked the world for a while.
By the beginning of June, Liu Yu, Cao Cao and other armies had already set off separately, and the emperor had arrived at the outskirts of Luoyang, preparing to meet Zhu Jun first.
Yin Luoye of Henan and Du Xi of Luoyang tried their best to invite the emperor to return to the Luoyang palace where he had been away for seven years and worship at the ancestral temple. However, the emperor repeatedly refused on the grounds that "the world is uncertain and he does not want to see the old palace", but only ordered people to
Went to pay homage to Shizu Temple.
South of Luoyang City, the former site of Bigui Garden.
Bigui Garden was built in the third year of Emperor Guanghe of Emperor Xiaoling. It is divided into two gardens, the east and the west. It means "all kinds of wonderful things are prepared, shaped like a jade guide". It contains rare birds and animals, carved railings and painted buildings. It was the first garden of Emperor Xiaoling.
Bi Guiyuan was a place for amassing wealth and entertainment. Bi Guiyuan, which had been criticized since its establishment, was burned at the hands of Dong Zhuo in less than ten years.
"The ruins are cut off, and the scenery of the past can be vaguely seen." The emperor put his hands on his back and walked slowly and leisurely along a small pond with Xun You, Jia Xu and other people. To guard against assassins, the Yulin in front of the emperor, the tiger warriors had already been in sight.
The weeds and weeds, the broken bricks and the damaged walls were cleaned up. Now the view is wide, with a few isolated trees standing in the distance, and there is not even an inch of hiding place.
Xun You, the Attendant, and Jia Xu, the messenger of embroidered clothes, followed closely behind. Far behind, Yin Luoye of Henan Province stood with his feet up and looked up.
"Bi Guiyuan collects rare treasures from all over the world regardless of the people's power." Xun You rarely said something to oppose the objection: "In the past, Emperor Xiaowen stopped building the terrace because he cherished the wealth of ten families. Emperor Xiaoling was really not as good as him."
This is almost like referring to a father. It would be easier to say if it comes from Yang Qi, who is upright and likes to give strong advice, but it comes from the silent and humble Xun You. Even Jia Xu, who is familiar with him, is a little surprised, and still
It's been a long time since we last saw each other. What happened to the other party?
"Do you want me to punish you?" The emperor, who was walking in front, smiled and turned half of his face. He kept walking, and the smile in his eyes was not intimidating at all.
"I don't dare." Xun You said softly, without any hint of fear.
Everyone's heart was raised.
"No one has any faults, and there is no greater good than being able to correct them." Jia Xu immediately responded, in agreement with Xun You: "Your Majesty does not cover up his father's faults and sincerely corrects them. This is not only the most filial piety, but also a good deed in the world."
"I have already paid a visit to Wenling." The emperor turned his head and left his head to the people behind him. His clear voice was heard from the front: "Xiaohuan, the fault of filial piety lies in being close to a villain and staying away from him."
A virtuous minister; he indulges in having fun and forgets state affairs. This has been clearly written in the imperial edict. What have I done in Chang'an these years that has failed the people? If the people of Guandong don't know about it, then let them know about it."
Only then did everyone gradually understand that Xun You had promoted the emperor's responsible and acting side in these words. Although this image was already common in Guanzhong, for Guandong, which had been alienated for many years, it was like a re-established flag. They were all here.
I admire Xun You's accurate timing and courage in admonishing, and I also admire the emperor's magnanimity.
But none of them expected that Xun You not only offered advice to the emperor, but also bowed his head on the affairs of Jingzhou and Jiangdong. As long as the emperor didn't care about these few words, he wouldn't care about what happened in Jingzhou and Jiangdong. Of course the emperor wouldn't care about it.
, according to Xun You's expectation, the heat in the south is under control and does not affect the overall situation at all. The emperor cannot blame him for this, he just needs a respectful attitude to pave the way for him. After all, if he doesn't do it now, he will mention it later.
It's too late.
"There are three things at the moment." The emperor could still use Xun You at the moment. With this awkward condescension and showoff, he could naturally pretend that he couldn't see what was going on in the south. After gently dismissing the topic, the emperor turned his back to the pool and was cold.
The wind pushed him towards the resting hall: "The first thing is Yuan Shao. In the past half month since his arrival, there have been many 'auspicious events' in Hebei. In a few days, he will be crowned emperor instead."
"The Yuan family is just trying to use force, but they don't know that the trouble lies with Xiao Qiang." Jia Xu followed and said, "It's just like Gengshi and Jianshi, but it's just a big one."
"That's what I meant, so I let him have his way." The emperor also walked into the palace disapprovingly and sat down on the prepared couch: "It is still unclear who these 'auspicious omens' indicate."
Everyone couldn't help but think of Wang Mang's famous prophecy that "Liu Xiu will be the emperor" when he usurped the Han Dynasty. The allusion of An Zhifei servant was not far away at that time, but due to the taboo of Guangwu's name, it was not made public for a while.
"The second thing." The emperor rolled his eyes and looked at Xun You, who had a calm look on his face: "He is the former general. He has been depressed recently due to the death of his eldest son. Can he still be inspired by Yuan Shu's southern expedition?"
