Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 447: Omen of Destiny
Liu Bei pacified Hanzhong, and the news of the success spread to Yecheng, and the court was full of joy.

Zhang Lu also sent a letter of guilt, voluntarily went to the mountains to practice, prayed for the great man, and made atonement for his mistakes. The emperor ordered him to preach in Hanzhong.

At this time Ma Chaobing arrived in Hanzhong, Liu He ordered him to temporarily garrison in Dingjun Mountain, and Hanzhong would provide food and grass, and then dispatched after the winter.

The busiest thing in Yecheng at this time was the construction of the Luoyang Palace. Officials frequently traveled between the palace and Luoyang, and Liu He also went to Luoyang to preside over the construction of the ancestral temple.

When Dong Zhuo retreated to Chang'an, Liu He ambushed Lu Bu at Tongguan and intercepted many artifacts from the ancestral temple, all of which were transported from Fanyang to Luoyang.

Although it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, the craftsmen in Luoyang are busy with enthusiasm, rushing to work day and night, just to complete the construction of the palace earlier.

At the same time, an amazing news spread among the craftsmen and Luoyang people. When the Hall of Supreme Harmony was being renovated, a purple light suddenly appeared from the ruins and rose into the mid-air, faintly turning into a word "harmony".

The craftsmen and soldiers who saw it all knelt down and worshiped, saying that this indicated that Liu He had fulfilled the destiny, and followed the people's hearts, which was a sign of fulfilling the destiny.

In fact, there were rumors about the relationship between Liu He and Emperor Guangwu as early as when Hebei was pacified. At this time, such strange things happened in Luoyang City, and the news quickly swept across the Central Plains like a cold wind.

As for Liu He's pacification of the world, every step he took was almost the same as that of the ancestors back then. From Hebei to Hanoi, and finally pacified Guanzhong and Jiangnan, it was simply the rebirth of Guangwu.

The later Han Dynasty lasted for more than two hundred years, and it happened to be another reincarnation. At that time, King Gong of the East China Sea took the initiative to abdicate the crown prince, and the lineage of Emperor Ming changed several times. From the time of Emperor Huan and Emperor Ling, he was no longer the eldest son to inherit the destiny. The orthodox position should return to Prince Gong. It's in this vein.

At this time, when Liu He inspected the construction of the palace again, he found that everyone's eyes were different again. Even Xun Yu's demeanor was much more respectful than before.

In addition to Liu He, Xu You is the most popular person in Luoyang and even in the court. In order to build the palace, he ran around to attract investment and sponsorship, and persuaded all the big families to donate property, totaling [-] million yuan. Money, staggering.

As the leader, Xu You was the first to set an example by donating all his family wealth, totaling 9000 million yuan, leaving only 100 million yuan for his family.

When the news came out, everyone was shocked. They didn't expect Xu You to have such extraordinary abilities, and he, who loves money like his life, would be willing to donate his family property, which is really surprising.

In commemoration of Xu You's contribution, Liu He named the east gate of Luoyang "Yuyuan Gate" after Xu You. Future generations will remember.

When the news came out, some people admired Xu You's loyalty and completely changed his image, while others ridiculed Xu You for trying to gain fame, thinking that his actions were just for the sake of fame.

Regarding all kinds of right and wrong discussions, Xu You waved his sleeves and smiled, and refused to comment. The clearer is clear, no matter what his purpose is, the money is real.

Those who spoke nonsense did not take out a single coin, what they left behind was only spittle.

Ever since he was in charge of the business affairs of the imperial court, he had talked with Liu He several times. Xu You's vision has long since surpassed this era, and his mind is naturally not only for profit.

After being compared to Tao Zhugong by Liu He, Xu You suddenly had an enlightenment and his ambitions changed drastically. Fan Li retired to do business and dispersed his wealth, which is praised by future generations.

Although this era despises merchants and values ​​scholars, being respected as a "sage of merchants" will last forever. What's more, Xu You still contributes to the imperial court when doing things, which is no easier than leading troops to fight.

At this time, Xu You was on a large boat in Dajiang. He was going to Jiangdong this time to discuss cooperation. He had been traveling here and there for several years. , but a sense of accomplishment after each negotiation.

"The shopping mall is like a battlefield!" Thinking of what Liu He said, Xu You felt the same way and sighed with emotion while looking at the surging river.

History has its own judgment on what he has done and what his merits and demerits will be in the future, and those who accused him and ridiculed him, after all, disappeared without a trace like a wave in the river.

In the city of Luoyang, Liu He and all the civil and military officials temporarily lived in a corner of the Nangong Palace. It was burned down by a fire before, and later Emperor Hanling ordered people to rebuild it. He died of illness only halfway through the repair. Later, when Dong Zhuo ransacked Luoyang, he died of illness. Nangong was still a half-finished product, and the Xiliang army didn't patronize it, but they also left Sanjin in the yard.

The wing room on the left is Liu He's residence. In the red clay stove, the Changbai Mountain ginseng scented tea specially sent by Gongsun Zan last month is being boiled.

In just over a year, Gongsun Zan had already led the army to conquer Xuantu County, went straight north to Fuyu, made a surprise attack for three hundred miles in the snow, and went straight to Xianbei's lair, pacified Fuyu in one fell swoop, and planned to conquer Goguryeo with Gongsun Du next year.

Sitting next to the stove were Guo Jia and Cao Cao. The two really had a special bond. Ever since Guo Jia arrived in Luoyang, he and Cao Cao had been very close. They enjoyed drinking and chatting every day, which even made Liu He jealous.

Thinking of the rumors that have been spreading more and more crazy in the past two days, Liu He sighed: "Now I understand why Meng De made the Luoyang Order. It turns out that you have premeditated it!"

Cao Cao took a sip of wine, narrowed his slender eyes slightly, covering up the sharp light, and said lightly: "For the sake of the Han family and the people of the world, Cao did this as a last resort. Sitting in Luoyang, the rest of the people can't convince the crowd, so is it going to cause a big mess?"

Guo Jia also nodded and said, "Among the lords, Sun Ce is the most aggressive. Liu Bei's ambition is a thousand miles away. Although Liu Biao and Liu Zhang are conservative generations, they are not willing to submit easily. If this is not done earlier, the court will be divided in the future. , Internal faction struggle, how can the world be stabilized as soon as possible?"

Liu He smiled helplessly. When things got to this point, he knew he couldn't help himself. Fortunately, everyone around him agreed with him, and he didn't hear any objections. Even Tian Feng, who was the most upright, didn't speak. It is indeed what people want.

Sighing softly, Liu He asked, "Where are the craftsmen who saw the miracle now?"

Cao Cao replied: "These people were rough in their work, and there was an accident accidentally. One fell to his death from the beam of the house, and the stone wall collapsed when the three took shelter under the wall. burnt."

"What? You..." Liu He was taken aback, and looked at the indifferent Cao Cao in astonishment. Why does this guy feel more ruthless than Sima Yi?
Cao Cao slowly put down his wine glass, and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, Cao will personally take care of their wives and children, so that three generations will be safe."
