Chapter 402 Xue Dingshan

Liu Yu, a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, has a benevolent heart, and now he is counting on the revival of the Han Dynasty in his heart.Liu Bian is his only hope, but the old man can manage the place well, but he has no courage and often worries about gains and losses.With the incident of Xue Rengui happening again, I was afraid that Liu Bian's major event would be ruined, so I wanted to remove the great responsibility of Youzhou Mu and replace it with someone with talent.

Xue Rengui understands righteousness, how can he pass this letter of resignation to Liu Bian?

Don't say that Liu Yu governed Youzhou diligently and cared for the people, conscientiously managed Youzhou in an orderly manner and prospered.Even Liu Yu is mediocre, but relying on his prestige in Youzhou, he must not leave.

Yan Rou is full of prestige among the foreign races outside the pass. If it weren't for Liu Yu's benevolent deeds, how could Ju Shou win half of the foreign races' cooperation and be evenly divided with Liu Bei?

"My lord, please forgive me for not handing over this letter to your Majesty. Now Youzhou is in troubled times, and there are many enemies around. Once you leave, the people will be panic. And because of your departure, those foreign races will also follow us. The cooperation with you cannot last long! So Youzhou cannot do without you!" Xue Rengui cupped his hands and told Liu Yu the benefits of Liu Yu's departure.

"It's just that I'm ignorant and inexperienced. If I miss His Majesty's major event and delay His Majesty's rejuvenation, I will die!" Liu Yu shook his head bitterly.

Xue Rengui pondered for a moment, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Youzhou cannot do without you, but you only need to sit in town. This time I will go to Luoyang to explain to His Majesty, how about asking a talented person to help you with suggestions? It’s just that this matter of resignation must never be mentioned again!”

Hearing this, Liu Yu was overjoyed: "If you really can ask His Majesty for talents, I will never mention resignation!"

"The situation in Youzhou is getting more and more serious. Only Ju Junshi may be alone. Your Majesty will definitely agree to it!" Xue Rengui nodded and smiled.

"Then the old man is waiting for the good news!" Liu Yu personally sent Xue Rengui out of the city, and said goodbye.

"Take care of yourself!"

Xue Rengui led Zhang Shigui and three hundred cavalrymen to escort Ju Yi into Luoyang.Xue Rengui first went north to Shanggu County, entered Mayi, Yanmen, Bingzhou from Shanggu, and then went south from Shangdang to Luoyang, Henan.

It took more than ten days to arrive in Luoyang even though it was so fast all the way.A group of hundreds of people is unavoidable to attract attention, and they even pretended to be merchants from the Northland.

"I didn't expect that the capital of Luoyang is so prosperous?" Zhang Shigui exclaimed in Luoyang city, seeing people coming and going, and the incomparably prosperous scene.

"Brother Xue, why are you so novel? Your ancestral home is from Hedong, so haven't you been to Luoyang?" Zhang Shigui asked with a smile when he turned his head to see Xue Rengui also looking surprised.Hedong is not far from Luoyang, and it can be regarded as a big county in the world. Zhang Shigui thought that Xue Rengui was familiar with Luoyang, and he didn't want to be like him, as if he was visiting the capital for the first time.

Xue Rengui shook his head with a wry smile and said: "My family is poor, and I only came here once when I was a child, but at that time Luoyang was not as prosperous as it is now, all thanks to the emperor's proper governance!"

"I see!" Zhang Shigui nodded, being attracted by the prosperity of Luoyang again.

While appreciating the prosperity of Luoyang, the group went to the special inn, and immediately sent someone into the palace to inform Liu Bian that Xue Rengui had arrived.

In Liu Bian's study in Houde Hall, Liu Bian was sitting at the head seat, and Wei Xiaokuan was reporting to Liu Bian about the situation of Jinyiwei.

"Your Majesty, you plan to attack Nanyang and want to take it quickly. Sun Jian is a fierce man. If he joins in, the battle of Nanyang will be protracted. Jin Yiwei secretly intervened to destroy his relationship with Yuan Shu. Now Sun Jian has requested to attack Yangzhou!" Wei Xiaokuan Arched.

"Sun Jian attacked Yangzhou? Wouldn't that mean letting the tiger go back to the mountain and helping him rise?" Liu Bian said in a deep voice.

Wei Xiaokuan smiled wryly and shook his head: "I originally wanted Yuan Shu to kill Sun Jian, but Sun Jian was not stupid, and offered to attack Yangzhou. It's just that Sun Jian's food and grass were pinched by Yuan Shu. He wanted to break away from Yuan Shu? I'm afraid it would be difficult. Bar?"

Liu Bian shook his head and said, "Sun Jian is far more difficult to deal with than Yuan Shu, if he conquers a whole city, it is not impossible to break away from Yuan Shu!"

"I, Jin Yiwei, continue to divide and put pressure on Sun Jian!"

"Yangzhou is too far away. After all, Jinyiwei is out of reach. If it's too difficult, it's fine. Now it's important to take Nanyang first. Even if Sun Jian takes Yangzhou, so what? I'll kill him anyway!" Liu Bian raised his eyebrows and said coldly.

"I will do my best!" Wei Xiaokuan nodded.

At this moment, the guard outside the door shouted: "Your Majesty, Xue Rengui has arrived in Luoyang. Would you like to meet him?"

"Oh? Xue Rengui is here?" Liu Bian smiled and said: "Tomorrow, I will be promoted to the palace to discuss matters, and Xue Rengui is summoned!"

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty, I wonder if you plan to let Xue Rengui take up any position?" Wei Xiaokuan asked suspiciously.

"This time, he deserved the most credit for repelling Yan Liang's army. How about I plan to let him command the Youzhou army?"

Wei Xiaokuan shook his head: "General Cao has made great achievements, but he is only in command of the Guanzhong army. After all, Xue Rengui has been in the army for a year. Although he has made great achievements, he has been promoted to this level, even above Di Qing and others. No one in the terrorist army is convinced. ah!"

"This? The situation in Youzhou is getting more and more serious. If there is no unified command, there will be chaos. How can you give him a high position without no objection?"

Wei Xiaokuan pondered for a moment and said: "Actually, in terms of background, Di Qing used to be a lieutenant in Luoyang, Le Jin came to vote in vain, Pan Feng was a general from Jizhou to vote, and Xue Rengui is your virtuous minister Yingmeng, Xue Rengui's background is enough. Contributions, Xue Rengui's contributions this time are comparable to what the three of them had before, but these contributions are only enough to put him on the same position as Di Qing and others, and it may not be enough to go further!"

"However, what if Your Majesty promotes Xue Rengui like Chang Yuchun did?" Wei Xiaokuan asked back.

"The school in the hall? Chang Yuchun is the commander of an ordinary soldier. If the school in the hall promotes Xue Rengui, I'm afraid Di Qing and others will not be convinced!" Liu Bian shook his head and said.

"Your Majesty, do you remember the imperial examinations?"

"Imperial examination?" Suddenly Liu Bian's eyes lit up and said, "Tell me about your thoughts in detail!"

Wei Xiaokuan cupped his hands and said: "At the beginning, Yu Yunwen was the number one scholar in the Luoyang Imperial Examination. Your Majesty promoted him to be the Luoyang Order, and even the arrogant Guo Fengxiao was convinced. Your Majesty can follow the example of the Imperial Examination and hold martial arts exams, and let Xue Rengui participate. If Xue Rengui can win the first prize , coupled with Ying Meng’s virtuous minister and his contributions, I’m afraid no one will be dissatisfied! And if Xue Rengui can’t win the first prize, your Majesty can get someone stronger than Xue Rengui, why not do it?”

Liu Bian nodded in satisfaction and said, "Good way, it's October now, you discuss with Mr. Cai and others to hold a martial arts festival at the end of the year. It will not only be lively, but also allow me to reap heroes from all over the world!"

"I obey the order!" Wei Xiaokuan nodded.

"In this case, I will meet Xue Rengui a few days later, oh yes, I will take Xue Rengui to that house, there are people he would like to see in his dreams!" Liu Bian laughed.

The guard bowed his hands and said goodbye, and went to inform Xue Rengui.When the guards came to the post house, Xue Rengui and others had been waiting for a long time.Seeing people coming, Zhang Shigui excitedly said: "Is Your Majesty going to meet Big Brother Xue?"

"No, His Majesty has other important matters and cannot meet you for the time being. You still have to wait for a few days, but you don't live here. Your Majesty has arranged accommodation for you!" The guard shook his head and said.

"Haha, you've been waiting for so long, so what if you come to Luoyang? Even Liu Bian refuses to see you!" This is, a person in the house laughed.But Ju Yi, who was tied up in the corner, made a mockery.

"Shut up!" Xue Rengui yelled lightly, then cupped his hands to the guards and said, "I wonder when Your Majesty will receive us?"

"Compared with His Majesty's meeting with you, you are probably more anxious about one thing? Don't worry, Your Majesty will not treat you badly, but now there is something you can't get away from. But Your Majesty has prepared a gift for you, and you will know when you go." Already!" The guard smiled mysteriously.

Xue Rengui frowned, what is more important than seeing the emperor?Xue Rengui didn't know why, so he cupped his hands and said, "Please lead the way!"

"Follow me!" The guard nodded in satisfaction and took Xue Rengui away.A group of people came to a house in a blink of an eye. The house was quite grand and valuable.

"This is a reward from His Majesty. You have been living here for the past few days, and there are servants here. I'm going back to report!" The guard pointed at the house, turned and left.

"What's going on here? Your Majesty Brother Xue has treated you really well. He even prepared a house for you. You can just wait patiently for a few days, and His Majesty will not treat you badly!" Zhang Shigui said.

Xue Rengui nodded, walked up the stairs, there were servants guarding the door, saw Xue Rengui and said: "Stop, this is Xue's residence, who are you?"

"This is Xue Rengui, your master!" Zhang Shigui shouted immediately.

"What? So it's the master, please come in quickly, you go and inform the wife, and say that the master is back!"

Zhang Shigui looked envious, and clicked his tongue: "Brother Xue is really lucky, not only has the house prepared, but even His Majesty's wife has been prepared for you!"

Xue Rengui vaguely guessed something, strode into the courtyard, and within a few steps, he saw a woman in a white palace dress running towards him from a distance, Xue Rengui immediately stayed on the spot, and the woman in white ran to Xue Rengui's side and hugged her : "Master, it's been a year and I'm finally seeing you again!"

Xue Rengui took a deep breath, not daring to say anything: "My lady, it's great to see you, but why are you here?"

"Your Majesty sent people to find us, took us to Luoyang, and rewarded us with a house!" Lady Xue saw many soldiers behind Xue Rengui, and hurriedly left Xue Rengui's embrace.

"It's Your Majesty?" Xue Rengui was surprised, and then he realized something. Seeing that his wife had a flat stomach, she was a freak for several months when she left a year ago.Xue Rengui said in surprise: "Child? Has our baby been born?"

"You have been away for a year, and the child is already half a year old!" Mrs. Xue gave Xue Rengui a white look, just as a maid came over behind her, holding a baby in her arms.Mrs. Xue took the child, handed him to Xue Rengui and said, "This is our child!"

Xue Rengui took it and opened his clothes to see that a bird between the child's legs was nodding at him. Xue Rengui laughed loudly: "Boy? Ma'am, you gave birth to a son for me. My Xue family has a child!"

The generals behind Xue Rengui also came forward, the child looks cute, full of big fat boys.Teased and giggled by the crowd.

After Xue Rengui was excited, he asked Mrs. Xue: "My lady, the child is half a year old, but did he ever have a name?"

"I don't know when your father will name him, but His Majesty has already named the child!" Madam Xue complained.

Xue Rengui was overjoyed. The emperor gave his son a name, which made him more excited than meeting him. Xue Rengui couldn't wait: "The emperor gave a name? What is it called?"

"The surname is Xue and the name is Na, and the cursive word is Dingshan!"
