Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 280

The first snow in the first year of Chuping came later than before.

Thousands of trees are sparse, and the snowflakes are falling profusely, covering this desolate scene, and looking around, there is a vast expanse of whiteness.

Liu He led the generals to Ji County, and Liu Yu led the officials to greet him outside the city. He was not only proud of Liu He's son, but also grateful for his narrow escape.

When they first heard that the Black Mountain bandits were intercepting Liu He, Liu Yu, Lu Zhi and others all regretted that they should not let Liu He take risks for Cai Yan, a woman. Fortunately, he saved the day and returned safely.

A banquet was held in the city to welcome the generals to celebrate their achievements. When they asked about the Bingzhou war, several of them talked about their experiences. Liu Yu, Hua Xin and others were moved when they heard Liu Yu, Hua Xin and others, and they became more and more fond of these young generals.

Liu He reported the newly appointed officials of Bingzhou to Liu Yu, but Liu Yu just nodded lightly, letting Liu He and Liu Yao discuss and decide on their own, and he could recommend it on behalf of him.

This time, Bingzhou was pacified, with Changlin as the driver, Han Hao as the governor of Taiyuan to carry out the garrison, Tai Shici as the general of Dingbian to train soldiers and horses, and Hao Zhao as the general of the bandits to guard the fortress against the Black Mountain army.

In addition, Guan Qiuxing was the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang, Zhang Shi was the prefect of the Shangdang, Xue Hong was the county magistrate of the Xuan family, and Yang Chou was the general of the Tianjing Gate.

Although these officials can be appointed by Liu Yao himself, they still have to be reported routinely, and important ministers and generals in various places recommend the imperial court. As for whether the imperial court agrees or not, it is irrelevant.

Liu He could tell that Liu Yu obviously had no intention of interfering in the political affairs of Merger State, which meant that he had no ambition to fight for hegemony, and only wanted to be a good shepherd of Youzhou.

After this year of war, Liu Yu has completely assured Liu He, and the whole world praises Liu He as a young hero. As a father, he also feels that he is honored. discuss.

But this is also good, Liu Yao and himself are of one mind, Liu Yu only wants to manage the rear, and the soldiers and horses of the two states are under his own control, so he can let go of his hands and feet.

The banquet ended happily, and when I woke up the next day, it was another family feast. Although the Bu family was in Zhuo County, the Wang family was Liu He's biological mother, and his brother Liu Kang was also in Jicheng to accompany Liu Yu. reunion.

Liu Kang has grown rapidly in the past few years. Coupled with Zhuge Jin, a classmate, they are about the same age, have similar interests, and are quite knowledgeable in political affairs. Seeing that he is cautious and thoughtful in his work, he should be an internal affairs talent in the future. If he can succeed Liu Yu's ability is pretty good.

Half of the food on the table was cooked by Liu He himself, and he added some seasonings from Bingzhou. The taste was quite different from the past, especially the braised lion head. And teach her to go to Zhuojun.

The snowflakes are fluttering outside, and the room is full of fun. The charcoal stove is burning red, and a few donkey meats are roasted on fire.

At this time, Liu He sighed in his heart. If there were potatoes and sweet potatoes in this era, they would be roasted in the stove. The golden skin and the soft inside would be better than beef and mutton.

It is a pity that during the Han Dynasty, the crops in the Central Plains were still too scarce, and the yield was not high. Liu He strongly advocated re-opening the Silk Road. Making money and collecting intelligence was one of them. Another important reason was to think of the West to find food seeds. Demographic development is of great benefit.

After eating, Liu He remembered a serious matter and said, "Father, Rui'er is not young anymore, so it's time to get engaged to her."

Liu Yu nodded repeatedly when he heard the words: "Yes, yes, speaking of Rui'er, my father is about to entrust you with something!"

Instead, Liu He was taken aback, and asked, "Father, just give orders."

Liu Yu said with a smile: "Two months ago your father-in-law acted as a matchmaker for Rui'er. Due to his busy political affairs, he hasn't been to Fan Yang to meet his father. You have to find out carefully when you go back this time."

"What?" Liu He was taken aback, put down his chopsticks and frowned, "Who can be worthy of Sister Rui'er? Isn't he afraid of being pricked by needles?"

In fact, Liu Rui has already reached the age of marriage. After Liu Yu came to Youzhou, many gentry came to propose marriage, but after Liu Rui got the news, he immediately found the young man and ran away with a few needles. In addition to the "big name" who had the needle in Fanyang, almost no one came to the door last year. I didn't expect that Lu Zhi would come to be a matchmaker again.

Liu Yu shook his head and laughed and said: "Rui'er lost her mother at the age of ten, because her father spoiled her too much, so she was a bit savage in doing things, but she has a good heart. It is also her fate that she can learn medicine now. The person who is hired is Rui'er. The patient is a poor disciple."

"Patient?" Liu He's face was slightly unhappy, and he frowned and said: "Little sister is talented and intelligent, and she will become a generation of Qihuang masters in the future. I'm afraid ordinary people are not good enough for her!"

"Oh?" Liu Yu looked at Liu He in surprise, "So, does Boxing also have candidates?"

"Exactly!" Liu He nodded and said, "Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan are heroes, their literary skills and military skills are no less than Hai'er, and Hai'er thinks that my younger sister should marry such a hero."

Of course Liu Yu also met Zhang Liao, nodded slightly, but then sighed: "But this matter is your father-in-law's sponsor. If you want to betroth Ruier to Zhang Liao, you have to discuss with them."

Liu He nodded and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, my younger sister is the closest to me. The husband-in-law I choose for her will never be wrong. When I get to Fan Yang, I will just explain to my father-in-law."

Long before the expedition, Liu He planned to betroth Liu Rui to Zhang Liao, but Zhang Liao went to Bingzhou at that time, and planned to make the marriage after returning. kicked.

Liu Yu shook his head and smiled, "I see that your father-in-law likes this man very much, and there are so many praises in his words. It's not easy to make him change his mind!"

Liu He nodded and said with a smile: "It depends on the character of that person, the child can make his own decision!"

Why do cats and dogs want to marry my sister?

Liu He curled his lips secretly. Although the people recommended by Lu Zhi should not be bad, they must be those Confucian scholars, most of whom are stubborn and pedantic. How can they compare with Zhang Wenyuan, the famous general of the Three Kingdoms?

He had already made up his mind. After returning to Fan Yang, he would first teach this boy a lesson and let him retreat.

Then go to Lu Zhi to discuss, to deal with this old father-in-law, only one jug of wine is enough, if it is not possible, just two jugs.

When she was thinking about it secretly, she heard Wang laughing and said: "I think Cai Zhonglang's daughter is well-educated, gentle and virtuous, and she is indeed worthy of He'er. This marriage is settled!"

"What?" Liu He didn't expect to turn the topic to himself all of a sudden, and asked in amazement, "Where did you say this?"

Liu Yufu smiled and said: "Cai Zhonglang received Cai Yan's letter, and he knew how dangerous it is for Boxing to save people. Such a great kindness, it is really hard to repay him by not allowing him to be married. I think it is feasible for my father."

Although Liu He also fell in love with Cai Yan, he didn't expect it to be so fast. Instead, he became a little coy for a while, and said with a dry smile: "This...isn't this too abrupt? Besides, I don't know Miss Cai's intentions, and this matter is still a matter of love. It’s good to be happy, don’t force it.”

Wang said with a smile: "You don't need to worry about this matter. After entering the city yesterday, I have brought Miss Cai to the mansion. I had a long talk with her last night. As long as I invite my son, it is mutual consent."

"Uh... this," Liu He was excited, but still kept a bit embarrassed on his face, and said with a smile: "It's all up to the two Gaotangs."
