Chapter 113 Returning to Beijing
Although the Han court is weak, it is not the time for some careerists to openly rebel!
"Yes." Pan Yin replied cautiously.

Liu Bian was expressionless, thinking carefully in his heart.

Bingzhou has just been pacified, Yanzhou has not yet been completely pacified, Qingzhou is even more raging, and now Yuzhou is in chaos, and his tax reform has just started.

Thousands of threads, chaos into a pot of porridge.

He took a deep breath and said, "Write a letter to Da Sima. Pass the decree to Shangshutai, I will arrive in Beijing tomorrow."

"Yes." Pan Yin's heart jumped inexplicably, and he tried his best to keep calm.

Liu Bian immediately laughed, put his arms around Tang Ji, and said to Huangfu Jianchang and Shi A: "You guys continue to investigate."

In his opinion, this kind of "Qingjun side" came out when he was personally conquered and won a big victory, it was simply too stupid, and it would not have any momentum at all.

He arranged it this way, more to prepare for the future.

Liu Bian had a strong premonition in his heart that something big would happen soon!
"The minister leads the decree!" Huangfu Jianchang raised his hand in response, and waited for Liu Bian's carriage to go away before getting on his horse.

The two rode their horses and turned back to Luoyang City. Huangfu Jianchang glanced back at Liu Bian's convoy and said, "Didn't you say earlier that the royal family was involved? Why don't you let me say that?"

Shi Ada frowned, and said: "There is no evidence at all, and it turned out to be false afterwards, how can you explain to His Majesty?"

Huangfu Jian looked ahead and said, "Then, how do we investigate?"

Shi A is a ranger, not only in Luoyang, but also famous among rangers in every prefecture. He is good friends with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, etc., and his relationship network is very large and complicated.

He glanced at Huangfu Jianchang, and said, "Didn't you send someone there?"

Huangfu Jian smacked his mouth, glanced at Shi A from the corner of his eye, and said, "I can trust you."

Shi Aqing knew that this person was smarter than him, and said: "The person you sent is looking for Yuan Shu, right?"

Huangfu Jian looked surprised, and said loudly: "Old Shi, are you spying on me?"

Shi A had no expression on his face, and said indifferently: "Those people you sent probably have some relationship with Yuan Shu, it's strange not looking for him."

Huangfu Jianchang touched his face, and said: "I will have to guard against you in the future. I am looking for him, the secret mission entrusted to me by Da Changqiu."

Shi A and Yuan Shu are also familiar, so after careful consideration, he said, "I've checked, and I heard that he fled in a hurry, and was attacked by unknown assassins, almost died, and then disappeared without a trace, no one knows where he is hiding. .”

"Do you think he will die?" Huangfu Jian asked long.

Shi A shook his head and said, "Someone saw him later."

Huangfu thought for a while, then suddenly tilted his head to look at Shi A, and said, "I'm planning to go to Yuzhou."

Seeing Huangfu's serious face, Shi A said, "Are you still going to tell En Gongming?"

Huangfu Jian flicked his horsewhip, and said loudly, "We'll talk about it when I'm in purple!"

Shi A didn't say much, and rode his horse to follow.

evening.

Liu Bian appeared in the Forbidden Army Camp.

Here, only Xu Rong is stationed, and the fortifications are obviously more orderly than Liu Bian's last visit.

The soldiers' dormitories, canteens, stables, training grounds, weapon depots, etc. have basically been built and have begun to take shape.

Liu Bian walked around in a big circle, left the camp, and in the carriage, patrolled around the camp.

With a square face and a calm face, Xu Rong rode a horse beside Liu Bian's carriage and said, "Your Majesty, there are currently a thousand hectares in the surrounding area. The Hucao has been confiscated and handed over to the Imperial Army camp for cultivation."

Liu Bian looked at it, most of it was barren land, and it was basically within the scope of Sili, and further east and north were Yanzhou and Jizhou.

"not enough."

Liu Bian said: "A [-] army requires at least [-] hectares."

Xu Rong didn't speak, ten thousand hectares, there are not so many lands nearby.

Liu Bian thought to himself, [-] hectares is impossible now, but it doesn't mean it won't be possible in the future.Moreover, the Forbidden Army camp cannot be in one place, but must be divided into at least three places.

Moreover, other states, especially the northern states, have to step up farming, otherwise the imperial court simply cannot afford it.

"Go back, take a detour over there." Liu Bian pointed to the North Road, where there was a piece of farmland, and people were still farming it.

"Yes." Xu Rong, who was dressed in normal clothes, responded, and ordered the plainclothes guards to turn their heads.

Not long after walking, a large group of people came out from the woods, dressed in rags, dragging their families.

Liu Bian opened the curtains to look over, and said, "Pan Yin, go and ask where he came from."

Pan Yin responded, hurried over, gave a few pennies, and started chatting with these people.

Not long after, Pan Yin came back and argued with Liu: "Your Majesty, they escaped from Qingzhou and Yanzhou. They said that they heard that the new emperor will succeed to the throne, and that they need young and strong to build a palace, so they came here."

"Give them some money." Liu Bian shook his head. He didn't have the money to build a palace.

Seeing Pan Yin passing by again, Tang Ji whispered next to Liu Bian, "Your Majesty, I heard that many fleeing people from Qingzhou and Yanzhou have arrived in Kuaiji."

"So far?" Liu Bian was taken aback.

The present south is a desolate, remote and barren land shrouded in smog in the eyes of most people.Fleeing there shows how bad the local situation is.

Tang Ji nodded slightly, showing sympathy for these fleeing people.

Liu Bian quietly looked at the disaster victims who were grateful to Pan Yin, his heart was heavy, and his sense of urgency became more urgent.

The convoy walked slowly, and after half an hour, they returned to the Forbidden Army camp.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a group of people blocking there, and all kinds of shouts continued.

When Xu Rong saw it, his face became sullen, and he turned to Liu Bian. Before he could speak, Liu Bian sat up suddenly and said, "Don't move, let's see."

Among the crowd, there was a person who was very conspicuous, nearly two meters tall, more than a head of ordinary people!

I saw him waving a long stick, with a fierce face, and shouted: "You lied to me, let me out!"

The soldiers tried their best to stop him, but they couldn't stop him, they kept retreating, and a very tall man shouted: "You can enter the barracks as soon as you say, and come out as soon as you say!"

"You lied to me!"

Dian Wei was furious, pushed the long stick horizontally, pushed the crowd away, and strode to go out.

"Stop, we won't be polite if you mess around again!"

The soldiers of the imperial army did not use their weapons, but kept their hands. Seeing that Dian Wei was about to rush out, they shouted loudly: "Dian Wei, if you go out, you will be a deserter! You will go to jail!"

"You lied to me!"

Dian Wei was not good at words, repeated this sentence, quickened his pace, and was about to escape from the barracks.

"Then don't blame us!"

Na Shichang's face turned fierce, and with a wave of his hand, the imperial guards drew their swords, drew their bows, and surrounded Dian Wei in the middle.

Seeing this, Dian Wei said angrily, "You lied to me, why don't you let me go!"

Shi Chang said: "Going out is a deserter, let me go back!"

"Then you don't let me eat!" Dian Wei held a long stick, wary of these people.

Shi Chang was choked, looked left and right, and said, "If you eat half of it, we will keep you!"

"How can I fight when I'm hungry!" Dian Wei stared like copper bells.

Xu Rong didn't expect Liu Bian to see this scene, so he said calmly, "Your Majesty, I'm going to rectify it."

Liu Bian laughed, jumped out of the carriage, and said, "I'll take care of it."

Xu Rong was startled, hurriedly followed, and shouted: "Everyone put down your weapons!"

When many soldiers saw Xu Rong, they took back their weapons and said politely, "I have seen General Zhonglang."

When Dian Wei saw Liu Bian, he threw away the stick in his hand, ran over with great joy, and said, "Grandfather!"

Liu Bian looked up at the big man and said, "Your name is Dian Wei?"

Dian Wei looked down at Liu Bian, and said in a low voice, "Well, Maocai over there took it for me, and it cost ten Wen."

Liu Bian looked at Dian Wei, with a simple and honest face, thick limbs, and a fierce expression.

'I didn't expect that it was him that I met that day! '

Liu Bian half-closed his eyes, couldn't hide his smile, and said, "I guarantee that you are full, how about going with me?"

Dian Wei opened his eyes and said in a low voice, "As long as I have enough to eat, I can do anything!"

Seeing that Dian Wei hadn't reacted yet, Xu Rong said, "I haven't thanked Your Majesty yet."

Dian Wei was taken aback, then knelt down with a plop and said, "Dian Wei thank you...Your Majesty!"

He was right in front of Liu Bian, this kneeling almost hit Liu Bian's head, he had to turn sideways, half of his head was behind Liu Bian.

Liu Bian smiled, patted his thick shoulder, and said: "Get up, you will go wherever I go from now on. Pan Yin, prepare some clothes for him, and specially make a pair of armor and weapons. By the way , give him another [-] yuan to cure his mother's illness."

After Liu Bian finished speaking, he looked at Dian Wei who got up and said, "If it's not enough, just tell me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Dian Wei, who had just stood up, knelt down again with a plop, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Liu Bian patted him on the shoulder with a smile, and said to Xu Rong: "Prepare more food, I will spend tonight in the camp."

"Leadership!"

Xu Rong raised his hand and said.

He was calm by nature, unsmiling, turned around and went to make arrangements.

Liu Bian accepted Dian Wei, he was very happy, and said: "Later, you can eat as much as you can."

Dian Wei seemed to have heard some great surprise, his eyes widened, and then Lu smiled happily, grinning and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Liu Bian walked forward and said, "By the way, why don't you speak official language?"

Dian Wei followed behind Liu Bian, looked down at Liu Bian, and said, "My mother said that my official language doesn't sound good."

Liu Bian laughed and said, "Then you can say whatever you want from now on."

"Okay." Dian Wei grinned, giving off a very simple and honest feeling.

Liu Bian glanced at the long stick he threw away and stuck it on the ground, at least up to the length of his calf.

'What a great arm! ' Liu Bian secretly startled.

Half an hour later, in the canteen of Daying, Liu Bian and others sat at the small table in the front.

In addition to Liu Bian and Xu Rong, there are also some tribal capitals, military Sima, and captains, etc., a total of seven people.

One by one sat solemnly, with their heads down, very serious.

Liu Bian picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile: "Relax, take the chopsticks and talk while eating. Xu Qing's family, within half a month, there will be at least 5 people in the Imperial Army Camp, and you will be responsible for training, Cao Cao, Zhang Liao and others will come to assist you. Da Sima and Shang Shutai will arrange for you to settle the land. The monthly money and food will be distributed in full, and there must be no deductions. It must go to every soldier..."

Xu Rong bowed his body and listened calmly.
