Zhen Mi became even more curious, and stared at Liu Xie intently, with surprise in her eyes.

Liu Xie did not explain.

Yang Biao suggested that he pass through Luoyang, not only because of Henan's gratifying results this year, but also to appease Xun Yu and the Xun family.

Anyone who is rational knows that the Xun family plays an important role in the court and is a force not to be underestimated.And in the foreseeable future, this force will grow stronger and stronger.

After Xun Yu frankly accepted Zuo Qian's edict, it was necessary for the imperial court to appease him accordingly to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

It doesn't mean that if you are the emperor, you can do whatever you want.

Xun You has pacified Liaodong, and is about to return to Danhanshan Station, responsible for the defense of Yanshan Mountain, and also guarding the northern border of the empire, guarding the rich North China Plain.Under such circumstances, it would be unwise to cause any misunderstanding.

What's more, Liu Xie has no plan to break with the Xun family.

In his vision, the control of Jizhou is an important part of the security of the empire, and the related work is far from complete.If it weren't for the war needs in Yizhou, he didn't plan to leave Jizhou at all.

It's just a temporary leave now, and he will come back.

But he didn't explain to Zhen Mi.

Zhen Mi's shortcoming is that she tends to think too much and has unnecessary expectations.

Zhen Mi watched for a while, seeing that Liu Xie had no intention of explaining, although she was a little regretful, she still obediently closed her mouth.

It is always a good thing that the emperor cares about her and is afraid that she will be tired.

Liu Xie summoned Cai Yan and Yuan Heng and told them not to accompany them, but to stay in Zhao and continue to collect relevant materials, especially those related to Goguryeo and Fuyu.

It would be even better if some evidence can be found to prove that the relationship between Goguryeo and Buyeo and the Chinese civilization can help integrate them into the Han Dynasty.

If necessary, an on-site visit can be arranged.

Neither Goguryeo nor Buyeo have their own scripts, so it is not difficult to integrate them.

Cai Yan and Yuan Heng led the edict.

-

Liu Xie immediately issued an edict that Xun You increased the number of households by [-] and returned to the Hanshan resident.

He worshiped Gao Shun as General Du Liao, stationed in Xuantu County.

Bai Quyi was General Henghai, in charge of the Eastern Expedition to find the military port.

Yuan Xi and Zhang Yun were reduced to one degree, and transferred to the command of Liu Bei, the general who conquered the East, and accompanied them in the expedition.

Dong Cheng was transferred to be the general of Zhenbei and stayed in Hejian.

Zhang Liao was transferred to the right general to make up for Dong Cheng's vacancy, and Jian selected two thousand Wuhuan and Xianbei cavalry into the imperial army.

Zhao Yun was transferred to be the prefect of the county, and Liu He was transferred to the prefect of Shanggu to fill in the vacancies of Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.

Meng Da became the governor of the left side of scattered cavalry, and Lu Su turned into the governor of the right department of scattered cavalry.

In early October, Liu Xie arrived in Luoyang.

Yuan Shu, Xun Yu and others greeted him.

After seeing the ceremony, Liu Xie called Yuan Shu to him and asked him a question.

I heard that when Liu Biao left Luoyang, you gave him a painting?

Yuan Shu laughed when he heard it.

There is such a thing.Anyway, I worked with him for over a year and he was very helpful.I wanted to give him some valuable presents, but now I’m so poor that I only have painting pens, ink, paper and inkstones at hand, so I asked someone to give him one as a souvenir.

Liu Xie asked again, what is the painting?

Yuan Shu smiled even more proudly.

Famous places in Xiangyang, His Majesty may be able to see them if he has the opportunity to go to Xiangyang during his southern tour.

The locals know it.

Liu Xie understood and didn't ask again.

He still knows roughly what Liu Biao did in Xiangyang.But the matter has passed, and Liu Biao is also paralyzed, so there is no need to mention this matter again.

If Liu Biao doesn't know how to advance or retreat in the future, it won't be too late to take it out and beat him.

Liu Xie called Liu Qi over again, asked a few words, expressed his concern for Liu Biao, and let him work with peace of mind.

Liu Qi felt relieved and thanked him again and again.

Knowing that Liu Biao had a stroke, he was supposed to resign and go home to serve his relatives, but his mother Chen wrote to him, saying that Liu Cong had asked for leave to go home to visit his relatives. Don't worry, it's better to stay.

He understands his mother's concern, but his father is sick, and as the eldest son, it doesn't make sense for him not to go home to visit relatives.If the court asked him to resign with filial piety, he could only accept his fate.

With the approval of the emperor, he was finally relieved.

Considering that the Son of Heaven had just talked with Yuan Shu, Liu Qi felt that Yuan Shu might have interceded for him, and he was very grateful to Yuan Shu.

After seeing the officials and painters who participated in drawing the Luoyang picture scroll, he praised them and encouraged them to complete this important event as soon as possible. Liu Xie finally called Xun Yu to him.

"Can you ride a horse?"

"Yes." Xun Yu cupped his hands and lifted the hem of his clothes, revealing his trousers and boots.

Liu Xie nodded in satisfaction and ordered someone to lead the horse.

Cao Zhang led a snow-white Wuhuan steed to Xun Yu, and respectfully asked Xun Yu to get on the horse.

Xun Yu took a look at Cao Zhang and praised: "It's true that time is not forgiving. In a blink of an eye, the child in those days has become a handsome young man, who can be driven by His Majesty."

Liu Xie smiled and responded. "Yes, speaking of it, it was six years ago that I and Qing met for the first time. It is still vivid in my memory, as if it was yesterday."

Xun Yu smiled slightly, took the reins of the horse, broke the saddle to recognize the stirrup, flew on the horse, sat firmly, took the whip from Cao Zhang, and shook it lightly.

"I haven't made much progress in the past few years, only my riding skills have improved slightly. If your majesty is interested, I can accompany your majesty on a horseback ride to see the autumn scenery of Luoyang."

Liu Xie looked at Xun Yu with a smile, and nodded slowly.

"Okay then, I'll take a look at Qing's riding skills."

Chapter 1031

Yuan Shu and the others looked at each other in blank dismay.

They were already surprised when they saw Xun Yu wearing a knight uniform.It was just that at the time, I thought it was to cater to the emperor's simple martial arts habits. I never thought that Xun Yu would actually ride a horse, let alone compete with the emperor on riding skills.

Is this... the famous scholar Xun Yu?

A few more mature ones were already lamenting in their hearts, as expected, people's hearts are not old, and the world is going downhill, even a gentleman like Xun Yu is forced by the situation, so he has no choice but to agree.

If Liu Biao were here, he would definitely not do this.

Liu Xie and Xun Yu galloped side by side for several miles, and slowly reined in the horse.

He could tell that Xun Yu's riding skills were not excellent, that is, he could ride.Although the white horse was docile, it was the first time for Xun Yu to ride it. If it fell down, it would be unattractive.

Xun Yu rode the horse to show his opinion, to show him.

He rode with Xun Yu also to express his opinion and show others.

Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need to take any more risks.

"Henan has been in power for a year, how about it?" No outsiders were present, Liu Xie cut to the chase.

"Slightly better than Hedong." Xun Yu sighed softly. "Yuan Shu painted "Luoyang Scroll", Liu Biao became an official, and there are very few people who dare to stand out."

Liu Xie turned to look at Xun Yu. "Some regrets?"

Xun Yu hesitated for a moment. "This is to implement the kingly way, but in the end it still succeeds with punishment and death. There is always something wrong with it."

Liu Xie couldn't help smiling, and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Xun Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt a little ashamed.

He thought that Liu Huihui would be furious, so he made a concession in advance to show his attitude.He just has regrets, and he is not against the imperial court's saving of land.

Liu Xie said quietly: "When Master was alive, he refused to be holy many times."

Xun Yu's eyes flickered, he hesitated to speak.

"So am I."

Xun Yu was stunned, and turned to look at Liu Xie, with a trace of strong uneasiness in his eyes.

"Your Majesty's words..."

The smile on Liu Xie's face faded, and he said unhurriedly: "Jun Xun governing Hedong, and Zhang Zhao governing Bohai, neither can fulfill his wish. How dare I aim too high and claim to be a saint. The inner sage and the outer king are just the goals of hard work. , it will be better if it can be achieved in this life, and there is no regret if it cannot be achieved.”

Xun Yu's face was a little hot. After thinking for a while, he nodded and agreed: "Your Majesty's words are true. As long as you keep working hard, whether you can achieve your goal in the end is not that important. It should just be paving the way for future generations."

Liu Xie nodded slightly. "I like what Xun Qing said."

-

Liu Xie met Mrs. Tang and gave a banquet.

Food and drink is very simple, just a family feast, no outsiders.

Before meeting Mrs. Tang, Mrs. Tang already knew what happened when Xun Yu met him. She knew that the two of them talked speculatively. At least they reached an agreement on the general direction. Relatively easy.

Ma Yunlu was not good at words, and after a few polite words with Mrs. Tang, he had nothing to say.

Mrs. Tang didn't mind either. Her attention was all attracted by Ma Yunlu's son.

This is the second son of the emperor. Because he was born in Jizhou, he was named Liu Ji and his baby name was Kouer.Although he is not yet one year old, he is in excellent health, lively and active, and is very lovable.

Mrs. Tang fell in love with her when she saw her, and she held her tightly and refused to let go.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu felt a little sad.

With her identity and feelings for her dead brother, the possibility of remarrying in this life is almost zero, and it is impossible to have her own children. This innate motherhood has no place to rest.

"How long has sister-in-law been away from Chang'an?"

"It's been more than a year." Mrs. Tang said casually.

"When you were in Chang'an, how much did you meet Wen Qian? How is Artest doing now?"

Mrs. Tang raised her head and glanced at Liu Xie when she heard the words, and said with a smile, "If you miss their mother and son, why don't you call Wen Qian to come here? As for me, I met a few times when I was in Chang'an. Later, Wen Qian was in charge of the Tongwen Museum Yinfang, if you can’t go away, you will see less.”

Liu Xie secretly sighed.

Although Xun Wenqian was smart, she was still young after all, and she was too ambitious to care about Mrs. Tang's feelings.Although Mrs. Tang has a father and brother, she has no feelings, and puts more feelings on him and Xun Yu's family, so she does not hesitate to give up Hedong Yinfang.

But Xun Wenqian couldn't feel it, or in other words, didn't pay attention.

"Follow me to Nanyang." Liu Xie suggested.

Mrs. Tang thought for a moment, then bowed her head and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. The Henan Yinfang was just built, and I'm afraid I won't be able to leave for the time being."

"You have so many talents under your command, you can pick any of them at will." Liu Xie waved his hand. "Take it as a vacation for yourself. You have worked hard these past few years. Let Wen Qian go too, and the two of you will be companions."

When she heard that Xun Wenqian was going to be summoned, Mrs. Tang did not refuse any more.

-

Liu Xie stayed in Luoyang for a few days, and went to Beimang Mountain to pay homage to Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu and the late Emperor Liu Hong.

Although I have no feelings for these people, I still have to have the proper etiquette.

During this process, Xun Yu was always by his side.

Liu Xie discussed with Xun Yu and transferred Mrs. Tang's father, Tang Mao, to Henan County and arranged for a county magistrate or county magistrate.

Although Tang Mao's abilities were limited and his virtues were not to mention, but for Mrs. Tang's sake, there was no arrangement at all, which was not suitable.

Although Mrs. Tang never mentioned her father and brother, blood is blood after all and cannot be parted.

Xun Yu was a little embarrassed, but he still agreed.

He then asked Liu Xie a question.

Emperor Shao reigned for only a few months, and was later abolished and renamed King Hongnong.Although Dong Zhuo was in power at the time, the procedure was legal, and the forest was done and could not be changed.

Now that King Hongnong has passed away and has no heirs, it stands to reason that Hongnong should remove the country and become a county.In fact, Hongnong should not have closed the country in Gyeonggi, and it has been handled as a county in the past few years.

So, should Mrs. Tang's title also be changed?

Liu Xie thought about it, then shook his head.
