Chapter 560: Peaceful Zen
According to the news that came back, the lord will arrive at this hour, so Chen Gong and Xu Shu were waiting outside the city gate more than half an hour earlier. There are many guards on both sides of the avenue to maintain order, of course, to prevent the public What assassins mixed in.
Many people participated in the reception. In addition to Li Yunfei's subordinate officials, there were also some surrendered generals who had not even met before, and of course Liu Xieyi, his family members and the group of old officials.
Liu Xie can be considered to have completely figured it out. Now the people's sentiments are irreversible. The people's eyes no longer have their own emperor. Now standing here, no one will really come to worship, except for those few old people. There are many old ministers, and some of the old ministers have begun to persuade themselves to give in, so there is really no need to hold on.
These years, the princes have been robbed as bargaining chips, and living a precarious life, it is better to be a rich man honestly. Xu Shu has promised to provide a considerable amount of money every year. Anxiety, as long as you can't afford other thoughts, and use common sense, the general will not embarrass yourself, so you don't have to worry about being calculated by someone at any time.
"Brother Gongtai, I heard that General Zhang Liao has returned to the lord's account again?"
"It is also a blessing for Wen Yuan to have such a result. I heard that Wen Yuan was an idiot at that time, and he still refused to surrender. In the end, Cheng Po was captured. The lord took the initiative to loosen him and asked her to return to the account. After many people's persuasion Only then did I reluctantly agree."
"Do you think that Ma Chao wants to take refuge, how likely is it that the lord will accept him?"
"This is not easy to say. At that time, Ma Chao really wanted to assassinate the lord. Now that he was defeated, he said he wanted to vote. How serious is the sincerity of the vote?"
"Then why did the lord accept Huang Zhong so enthusiastically when Liu Biao came to vote?"
"The situation is different. Huang Zhong acted on orders, while Ma Chao took the initiative to ask for orders... Of course, since the last time he escaped from death, the lord's mind has opened up a lot. Maybe he can ignore the previous suspicions. Why does brother Yuan Zhi care so much about Ma Chao?"
"In fact, Ma Chao has contributed a lot to defeat Cao Jun without bloodshed this time. I promised to intercede for him." Xu Shu explained.
"If Brother Yuan Zhi helps him to intercede, of course he will accept Ma Chao, and even treat him very favorably... I'm curious about Brother Yuan Zhi, how did he persuade the emperor to give in?"
"Actually, the emperor took the initiative to surrender this time, and Sima Fang also contributed a lot. Seeing that the old minister he trusted the most, the emperor also began to persuade him, and he agreed when he was disheartened."
"... This may be the best ending. Every time the dynasty is changed, it has always been a **** storm. Not only can he save his own life, but he also saves his big family. He still has enough money to subsidize food every year. The lord has given him It can be regarded as the best of benevolence and righteousness." In fact, the current emperor is already meat on the chopping board, and he has no ability to resist at all.
Even if the execution was carried out in secret, it was considered that he was already in the chaos of the army, and no one would ask him. The lord even asked Xu Shu to come forward and ask him to make concessions, which was very worthy of him.
The two chatted without a word, and everyone was looking forward to it. To say that the most anxious person in the crowd was Diaochan. It was a bit difficult for the past six months. I wanted to go north to find Li Yunfei several times, but in the end All endured.
Of course, some people are as anxious as she is, and that is Da Qiao. She is really impatient. Now she is twenty-one (empty years old), and she is still a big girl who has not left the cabinet. It will make people laugh to death. , If it wasn't for the general's decision, I would be embarrassed to go out and meet people.
There is another person who is very anxious, that is, the step trainer. To be precise, she is very nervous. The master is coming back. The master promised himself that as long as he came back, he would accept himself. He had been looking forward to it, but when the real thing came, he became nervous.
...
There was a slight rumbling sound in the distance. It was the sound of a large number of motorcades passing by. Everyone knew that the long-awaited Holy Master had returned. In the distance, they saw the flags fluttering, and the huge motorcade was moving from far to near. And the cleaning is also quite clean, but did not see a lot of dust flying.
There were dozens of tiger guards in Mingguangkai in front of the team, riding on both sides, and there was indeed one in the middle, on the blood-red red rabbit horse of the man in golden armor.
When the sun shines on the golden armor on the body, even a few hundred steps away, you can see the dazzling light emanating from the golden armor. Countless people began to worship spontaneously, cheering like a tsunami. Directly shouting out the words "Long Live the General", the people don't have so many twists and turns. In their minds, the current Li Yunfei is the emperor.
"Fathers and folks, please get up quickly!" Li Yunfei dismounted and bowed his hands to the people on both sides. Although his behavior was very tasteless in the eyes of some old stubborn people, the people were excited.
"Long live the general, long live, long live!" He exclaimed even more cheerfully.
"Long live the old folks! Long live the people!" Li Yunfei simply misappropriated the name of Taizu, and waved to the people on the left and right in response. He was going to go up to shake hands and say something kind, but for the sake of safety, the group of tiger guards still He stubbornly surrounded Li Yunfei in the middle and kept walking forward.
Liu Xie, who saw all this from a distance, was also a little ashamed. Shouldn't an emperor be aloof, sitting in a car and accepting the worship of the people?
"I can't believe that Duke Lu would be so loved by the people. I don't think Yao and Shun could reach it!" Sima Fang sighed with emotion.
"Jiangong has become so fast!" Dong Cheng sarcastically said, his daughter is Liu Xie's concubine, and now she is a child. If the Han Dynasty can be maintained, he will naturally be extremely honorable, and now everything is It became a cloud, and I felt a little unhappy in my heart.
"The old man asks himself that he is not a man who sees the wind and steers the rudder. How can the people's hearts in this world be turned around by the mediocre old guys like you and me."
"Jiangong really didn't see the wind, but you let your son go to serve his account!"
"It's just trying to survive in troubled times, didn't General Dong do the same thing?" Sima Fang replied, and he didn't say anything more. Now that his son has emerged in front of the new master, he also participated in the strategic plan outside the customs. It's only a matter of time before I get the praise of the new master, and it's only a matter of time before I want to be reused. It can be considered that I can hand over the burden of the family, and I can retire and return to my hometown to enjoy my old age. It is not easy to survive in a chaotic world, I hope this new master can really open a peaceful and prosperous world!
Seeing the extremely heroic new lord approaching, he directly walked up and entered the camp of Xu Shuchen's palace to salute together.
I finally came to the place where many subordinates greeted me. Although I also saw Daqiao Diaochan and Lianshi Bu in the crowd, I really wanted to hug him, but now that I have so many subordinates here, if you turn a blind eye, then So disrespectful.
"Congratulations to the triumphant return of the lord!" When everyone saw Li Yunfei approaching, they all paid homage to the shrine. Although the lord did not advocate a ceremonial visit, in this scene, etiquette should not be abandoned.
"Gongtai Yuanzhi, please hurry up Everyone please hurry up, this battle in Xuzhou is hard work, everyone!" Seeing a large number of people kneeling down, Li Yunfei quickly stepped forward to help him take the lead The two of them, and also invited the people behind.
"Please accept the seal of the general!" Liu Bian was also straightforward. He directly brought a jade seal representing rights and sent it to Li Yunfei. Although the jade seal was only made temporarily, he handed it over in front of the world. It is equivalent to giving up the position of the emperor.
In this case, there will be more benefits to renunciation. It looks like an active renunciation. The person who accepts the position will naturally not treat himself too badly because of his face.
In fact, Xu Shu was well prepared for the Chan surrender. After obtaining the consent of Li Yunfei, he directly read out the first imperial decree of the new emperor, and directly assigned Liu Xie a third-class duke, which is equivalent to the Wanshi treatment of the three princes of the Han Dynasty, and also awarded a reward. a large manor.
Converted to silver, the salary is about one thousand taels, which is enough for him to support more than two hundred people. In fact, his family is only a dozen people in total, and he has a large and luxurious mansion, so There is really no need to worry about food, clothing, and everything, except that there is no power... But after handing over the power, I feel a little relaxed, and I can't wait to go to the new home that truly belongs to me to see the situation.
