The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo

Chapter 76 The Han Dynasty Has an Emperor

At this moment, Zhang Liao could no longer maintain his composure and began to cheer three times along with the people around him.

Xu Huang, who was walking in front, turned around and saw this scene, with envy in his eyes.

Zhong Yao finally waited until the noise around him died down, then he began to recite Han Fu again.

"..."

However, as he was reading, Zhong Yao realized something was wrong.

"When the country's fortunes declined and the people suffered, the Holy Lord came into being..."

"Reorganize the government and work hard to govern. Care about the people and worry about the country and the people. Be diligent and work day and night to make the country prosperous and strong. Accept advice and gather the wisdom of the world..."

It was supposed to be a Han Dynasty poem praising the soldiers, but nearly half of the text was devoted to praising Your Majesty's wisdom?
Although, in fact, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with it, Zhong Yao still felt a little embarrassed when he read this.

"Mr. Cai is very much like his father!"

Zhang Liao also heard the content of Han Fu.

But he did not feel that Liu Xie was stealing the show. Instead, he touched his waist and abdomen with lingering fear.

"If it weren't for the five-zhu coin Your Majesty gave me, I would have been kidnapped by the bandits right now!"

After the battle, Zhang Liao lifted up his armor and took a look. He saw that the five-zhu coin had been broken, which was enough to show the power of Xu Huang's arrow!

If the arrow really hit Zhang Liao, he knew that he would fall off his horse and his life or death would be unknown.

Therefore, Zhang Liao also shouted at this moment -

"Long live the emperor! Long live the Han Dynasty!"

Zhang Liao's voice was very small at the beginning, so small that he was the only one who supported him.

Because the title of "Son of Heaven" had not been mentioned in Chang'an for a long time.

The emperor of the Later Han Dynasty rarely came to Guanzhong except to worship the temple of Emperor Gao.

During the reign of Emperor Ling, due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, there was no visit to Guanzhong for sacrifices for a long time.

Afterwards, the imperial court moved to Chang'an, and Wang Yun was often responsible for the sacrifices. Emperor Liu Xie rarely appeared in front of the world.

But today!
As Zhang Liao raised his arms and shouted!
The people of Chang'an finally realized one thing -

The Han Dynasty has an emperor!

The emperor is in Chang'an!

Since Emperor Shizu changed the capital of the Later Han Dynasty to Luoyang, although Chang'an was still set as the Western Capital, it was always inferior to Luoyang and always felt inferior in front of the people from Guandong, especially those from Luoyang.

But today, with the Han army's victory again and Baqiao's excitement again, the people of Guanzhong all remembered their identities——

I am a citizen of the Han Dynasty!

I am a citizen of Guanzhong!

They who once swept across Guandong, once fought against the Xiongnu in the north, and once destroyed countless countries - the people of the Son of Heaven!
"Long live His Majesty! May the Han Dynasty prosper forever!"

One sound after another came one after another, interspersed in it, and gradually covered up everything else!
Zhong Yao forced himself to finish reading the Han Dynasty fu, and his lips could not help but tremble slightly.

Although he is not from Guanzhong.

However, when countless people around him shouted "Long Live the Han Dynasty", he was still too excited to control himself.

In the end, Zhong Yao, like Zhang Liao, gave up his pride and murmured:

"Long live the emperor! Long live the Han Dynasty!"

……

The deafening sound was heard not only in Baqiao but also in the Weiyang Palace by Liu Xie.

When Liu Xie heard the first shout of "Long live the Han Dynasty! The Han army is mighty", his face was full of relief.

But when he shouted "Long live the emperor! May the Han Dynasty prosper forever", Liu Xie's face looked a little strange again.

"Mr. Cai's article was so well written that the people shouted "Long live the emperor" in unison. I am ashamed to receive this reward without any merit." Cai Yan bowed slightly and said, "As the saying goes, 'Good writing lasts forever.' The people cheered for your majesty because you are deeply loved by the people!"

Yo?
Quite a contrast?

Liu Xie originally thought that Cai Yan was a talented and aloof woman, but he didn't expect that she could also say some polite words?

Moreover, it was also a polite remark. If Jia Xu said it, Liu Xie would only think that old guy was so hypocritical! Maybe he was still planning something bad, which made people feel disgusted...

But if Cai Yan said it, Liu Xie would find it extremely pleasant to the ear and feel relaxed and happy!
Just after Cai Yan finished speaking, Xun You also had to speak up -

"This victory is all thanks to your majesty's foresight. From now on, the people will surely respect your majesty even more!"

……

Liu Xie silently added Xun You's name to the list of people who "make polite remarks but are disgusting"...

The shouts outside were long and loud. I don't know if Zhang Liao deliberately walked slowly. Anyway, when it was almost dark, Zhang Liao walked into the Xuanshi Hall with a glowing face.

"General Zhang Liao has fulfilled his mission! I am here to report!"

Liu Xie sat upright: "I have not broken my promise. The hot pot has been prepared long ago. We are just waiting for you, Wenyuan."

Zhang Liao chuckled and even forgot to thank the emperor. It was obvious that he was still immersed in the glory he had just enjoyed and had not fully recovered from his shock.

When Cai Yan saw Zhang Liao coming in, she felt that a woman should not be here, so she asked Liu Xie to leave: "Since your majesty is rewarding the meritorious officials, I will take my leave now."

But Liu Xie refused.

"You are also a meritorious official. The Hanfu you wrote was well written and you deserve a reward. Besides, there are no officials or ministers here today. Just treat it as a family dinner."

Zhang Liao was immediately surprised and said, "So that brilliant Han Dynasty fu was actually written by a woman? I always thought it was written by a Han man who could draw a strong bow and catch a fierce horse! It's really admirable!"

Cai Yan said "I dare not", but her ears became red and swollen unconsciously. She was obviously wondering whether the "family dinner" mentioned by Liu Xie just now was a little too frivolous?
While eating hot pot at their respective tables, Zhang Liao recounted what had just happened on the battlefield.

When everyone heard that the five-zhu coins rewarded by Liu Xie actually saved Zhang Liao's life, they all looked at Liu Xie in shock, thinking he was a god!

Liu Xie blinked a few times.

Don't look at me! I don't know what's going on!

Zhong Yao, who had just entered the hall and heard this, quickly put his hands on his waist.

Because he remembered that the emperor had given Zhang Liao more than one copper coin before, he also had one here!

"The emperor is truly divine! How can this be a copper coin? It's clearly a life-saving talisman! With this copper coin, you can jump off a cliff in the future without any problem!"

Zhong Yao, who had read the books of sages, suddenly felt confused for some reason and wondered whether he should try the power of this copper coin in the future...

"Yuan Chang, what are you in a daze about? Come over and enjoy the feast!"

Liu Xie always kept his rightmost position for Zhong Yao to show his closeness.

"His Majesty."

Although Zhong Yao was also overwhelmed with emotion just now, he did not forget etiquette like the warrior Zhang Liao.

"The rest of the matters have been dealt with. I just don't know how to deal with the thief Xu Huang? Should he be imprisoned in the imperial prison first?"

Liu Xie put down his chopsticks and said, "No need to go through so much trouble."

"Bring Xu Huang here now. I want to see him."

Zhong Yao looked around at the people eating in the Xuanshi Hall, and was a little unsure: "Now?"

"Right now."

Liu Xie wiped his mouth.

"Wang Yun once passed on military intelligence to him and also concealed his whereabouts for him."

"If there is anyone who knows Wang Yun's whereabouts now, it is probably only him!"
