Even though he was mentally prepared, Liu Zhang was still a little shocked by this number.
In the past three years, there has been a serious drought in the world, and many people have starved to death. The cannibalism of Yi Zi is no longer as simple as appalling, but a complete occurrence.
Liu Zhang felt that no matter how confused Liu Hong was, he still knew that he wanted to help the people and prevent the disaster from getting worse. Therefore, Liu Zhang did not have much hope for Luoyang's treasury.
"My lord, this is not all. According to my lord's order, about one hundred thousand stones of food and grass were left inside to prevent others from going hungry!"
Taishi Ci had a smile on his face. Taishi Ci, who had followed Liu Zhang for many years and was extremely upright, had also undergone amazing changes.
"Okay! As long as the food and grass are in our hands, we won't be afraid of the various soldiers and horses causing trouble! When the time comes, we will starve to death!"
After hearing the news about Taishi Ci, Liu Zhang felt even more relieved that the various troops he mentioned were actually Dong Zhuo!
After Dong Zhuo annexes the Bingzhou Army, his overall military strength will inevitably be stronger than that of Liu Zhang! At that time, if there is nothing to control him, friction will definitely occur. Now that he has food and grass in hand, Liu Zhang will feel more at ease.
"My lord, how will you gain from entering Luoyang today? Can you understand the intentions of the ministers in the court?"
Xun You was most concerned about the situation in the court. He did not follow Liu Zhang today because he was reorganizing his troops and was also quite curious about the current situation.
"I told the ministers that His Majesty did not leave any will. Three days later, I will discuss with them in Changle Palace to support the new king! But I estimate that these old ministers will recommend Liu Bian, the eldest son, to succeed him."
Xun You nodded. This was within his expectation. After all, Liu Bian was the eldest son!
"Then what do you want to do, my lord?"
Liu Zhang curled his lips, turned his head slightly, and looked in the direction of Dong Zhuo's military camp.
"Military advisor, Dong Zhuo told me that Liu Bian is too weak to inherit the ancestral temple and dominate the world. On the contrary, he thinks that although Liu Xie is young, he is extremely intelligent, calm in times of crisis, and is suitable to inherit the throne!"
Abolish the elders and establish the young! Xun You snorted in his heart, Dong Zhuo really didn't think the court was chaotic enough!
"What do you mean, lord?"
"Of course I have no objections and I won't say anything. Then doesn't Dong Zhuo want to be Yi Yin Huoguang? I'll just give him this chance!"
Xun You exhaled softly, showing a relaxed look on his face.
"I'm also worried that my lord's power will blind me. It seems I'm too worried!"
"Haha, Military Advisor, I think you are just worrying! You don't know that my lord went to Queen He's palace today..."
Liu Zhang pointed directly at Dian Wei, glared and roared.
"You black guy, shut up!"
Xun You looked at Dian Wei, then looked at Liu Zhang doubtfully.
"Lord, this...?"
"Oh, don't listen to this black guy's nonsense! Empress He wanted Liu Bian to take the throne, so she took the opportunity to seduce me. How could I fall for her!"
Liu Zhang was really going to be pissed off by Dian Wei. If he hadn't been here, he didn't know what this black guy would have said!
Xun You was obviously frightened by Dian Wei. If it was reported that he had an affair with the queen at this time, it would definitely be detrimental to Liu Zhang!
"Then my lord, have you thought of your next plan?"
"Gongda, this is not urgent. The top priority now is to send our family members to Hanzhong as soon as possible!"
"What my lord said is absolutely true. After I go back today, I will ask my family to pack their bags quickly!"
Now that Liu Hong is dead, no one dares to ask where Liu Zhang's family is. The top priority is to relocate them as soon as possible.
There have been serious deviations in the course of history. He Jin's death and Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing were all due to Liu Zhang's intervention nearly half a year earlier than in history. Whether there were bigger changes, Liu Zhang did not know.
What worries Liu Zhang the most is the variable Dong Zhuo. Although he is respectful to him now, who knows that one day he will fall out? Maybe if it gets serious, they will fight each other!
As long as all the family members in Luoyang are transferred, Liu Zhang will have no worries anymore! Even if he cannot defeat Dong Zhuo, he will run back to Hanzhong at worst! The Wufeng Battalion under his command is all cavalry, and they come and go without a trace, so naturally they have nothing to fear.
As for the Xiyuan Army and Yulin Army, Liu Zhang had no intention of taking them to Hanzhong. After all, these people were from near Luoyang. Who would be willing to follow Liu Zhang to Bashu?
After returning to Luoyang from the military camp, Liu Zhang went back to his General Wei's mansion and stood at the door, unable to help but feel a little emotional.
It took three years for this mansion to transform from General Hou's Mansion to General Wei's Mansion. I don't know how much longer it can last!
Maybe it won't be long before this place will be reduced to ashes...
Liu Zhang was not reluctant to move to General Wei's mansion. The only headache was how to persuade Liu Yun, his wife who had lived in Luoyang since she was a child and had great affection for Luoyang!
Just as he needed to explain to Cai Yan when marrying Liu Yun, he cannot escape today either. This time, without Xun You's help, Liu Zhang must face Liu Yun alone.
"Yun'er, Yan'er."
As soon as he entered the backyard, Liu Zhang saw Cai Yan accompanying Liu Yun. Looking at the situation, it was estimated that Liu Yun also knew the news about his father's body.
"Husband!"
When the two girls saw Liu Zhang coming back, they were all very surprised, especially Liu Yun, who ran directly in front of Liu Zhang.
"Husband, how is my father...how is he?"
Liu Zhang was in a dilemma. No matter what his relationship with Liu Hong was, he was his wife's father after all, and he was his most beloved daughter.
"Yun'er, Your Majesty, he..."
Seeing Liu Zhang's reaction, Liu Yun felt cold and his voice became trembling.
"What happened to my father..."
"His Majesty has passed away..."
Liu Zhang was determined and told Liu Yun the result directly. No matter what, the fact that Liu Hong was dead could never be concealed. If this matter was not mentioned, how could Liu Yun willingly go to Hanzhong?
"My condolences, Yun'er!"
Liu Zhang didn't know how to comfort Liu Yun. After thinking for a long time, he could only say the word "sorrow"!
Parents are close relatives, who can bear this kind of separation of life and death? No amount of comfort is nothing more than superfluous words!
Liu Yun stood there blankly, without any reaction. This news may have been psychologically prepared for her, or it may be like a bolt from the blue!
Liu Yun's father Liu Hong's love for him and various scenes of being together with Liu Hong kept flashing through Liu Yun's mind. Everything seemed like yesterday, and everything seemed like a lifetime ago!
It's a pity that this kind of beauty will pass away forever and never come back! Liu Yun and Liu Hong are destined to be separated forever.
"Cry, cry out..."
Liu Zhang hugged Liu Yun into his arms and patted her hair gently.
Liu Yun has been holding back herself. She is at a loss. This result has exceeded the limit of what she can accept!
Finally, when I heard Liu Zhang’s words of love, I couldn’t control myself anymore!
The cry was loud and pitiful, and even resounded throughout the entire General Wei mansion!
