In mid-June, Liu Yu arrived in Liaoxi County where he was located.

Liu Yu is the son of Emperor Guang Liu Xiu and the Yin family, and after Liu Qiang, King Gong of the East China Sea, he is a descendant of the Han clan whose roots are Zheng Miaohong; The prestige is very high.

From this point of view, it is a very correct choice to appoint him as Youzhou Mu and Mi Rian to seize power.

All the soldiers under Mi Yan's command knew that Liu Yu was sent by the imperial court to seize power, and they all stood up for battle, glaring at Liu Yu.

Who would have known that as soon as he and Mi Renfu met, the two would look at each other and smile as if there was no one else present, bowing to each other, their eyes full of nostalgia that had not been seen for a long time between friends.

Liu Yu smiled and said, "Zi Su! It's been four years since we parted that day. I really miss you all these years!"

Mi Yan also smiled and said: "I also miss Brother Bo'an very much, now it's good, we can work together."

Crowd: ?

Is there something wrong with this development?

After Mi Ren introduced them to the two parties, everyone knew that Liu Yu and Mi Ren were both from Donghai County, Xuzhou. In the early years, when Liu Yu was relegated and returned to the village because of the party's misfortune, Mi Ren had visited him.

Liu Yu is a son of the Han clan, he is upright and benevolent, and he values ​​the common people far more than his family status.

At that time, he heard that it was the descendants of the Mi family who had restored the ancient colored glaze and led many families in Qu County to become rich, and immediately met with Mi Ren.

The two chatted for a long time, most of which were about how to lead the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Because Mi Yan's views were so unique and effective, Liu Yu called out, "Sir, Yu is taught!"

Later, they often discussed ways to rectify the interstate and increase financial revenue together. However, because Liu Yu was imprisoned by the party, their exchanges were not publicized, and most others did not know about it.

Liu Yu is content to be able to work together now.

As for the imperial court's request... He already knew that Zisu had no intention of rebelling at all, and he didn't care who would put down the rebellion in Youzhou.

—Just put it in the left ear and out the right ear, he thought happily.

He did not interfere with Mi Yan's expedition, but only suggested: "Zi Su, instead of fighting for years, we should send envoys to recruit King Wuhuan Qiao."

Their rebellion this time was due to the coercion and lure of Zhang Chun and Zhang Ju, just like Han Sui back then, it was not active and sincere.If you tell them that the imperial court is willing to treat them leniently, they can be exempted from their crimes, and they will probably not continue to do evil.

Mi Yan nodded: "Brother Bo'an wanted to be with me again."

It turned out that after thoroughly understanding the current situation in Youzhou at the beginning of May, he discussed with his advisers and Tao Qian, and ordered a reward for the arrest of Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun; Huang and Zhong went to Qinghe County to recruit King Wuhuanqiao.

Zhong Yao has a stable personality, Xi Zhong is young and quick-witted, and Huang Zhong is brave. He is at ease with the team composed of three people, and he just waits for the good news to come back.

Liu Yu said with a smile: "It seems that I am doing too much."

"Hey, brother Bo'an said these things, isn't it a shame for me?" Mi Yan smiled, "Let's study how to make the people of Youzhou live and work in peace and contentment."

Youzhou is located on the frontier of the Han Dynasty, and it has been a poor state since ancient times. It often needs Qingzhou and Jizhou to subsidize financial expenses.But these young people and Hebei states are not very peaceful and cannot support enough money.

Not only the government is poor, but the lives of the people are even more miserable.

You have to find a way to fix it.

During the discussion between the two, Huang Fusong, who was sent by the court to arrest members of the Mi clan, finally arrived in Xuzhou.

As soon as he entered Xuzhou, he felt that this place was different from other places.This feeling was not obvious at first, until I entered Donghai County and saw that the official roads were spacious and tidy, the farms and fields not far away were crisscrossed with traffic, most of the local people were clean and decently dressed, and even raised chickens and ducks at home... just now Realized that the people here are extremely rich.

After thinking about it, this place is Mi Yan's hometown, and the policies that Mi Yan proposed to benefit the country and the people might have been implemented in Xuzhou long ago.

He sighed secretly in his heart: All these good officials who came out of the court with great difficulty were all excluded by those lowly traitors as dissidents.I don't know where Master Mi will go after His Majesty's death.

Huangfusong thought about it, and first went to Mu Luzhi of Xuzhou, the prefect of Qu County.He hoped that the two could cooperate and help him send Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, and Mi You to Jingluo.

Lu Zhi looked at him for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, I'll take Brother Yizhen to Mi Mansion."

The three of them led a thousand soldiers and horses, and the people along the way seemed to realize something, and they didn't dare to make any drastic moves, but just glared at the pedestrian.Those who are bolder will spit on them after they pass by.

This movement was discovered by Huangfusong.He has always been respected by people, and has never been so despised by others. He couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling, and asked Lu Zhi why.

Lu Zhi knew it well, and asked instead of answering: "Brother Yizhen, can you see the difference between the people here and other places?"

Without waiting for Huangfusong to answer, he continued: "In recent years, there have been raging fires all over the country. Countless people have left their homes and wandered around. It's miserable. But after I came to Donghai County, I found that this place has not been affected by the flames of war at all. The people have enough food and clothing to live and work in peace and contentment. The victims are worlds apart."

"Brother Yizhen, do you know why there is such a difference?"

It's because, Mi Ren.

Huangfusong opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.The mere two words were so heavy when they reached the lips.

Before arriving at Mi Mansion, the group was stopped by a group of young people.

A young man at the head holds a silver/gun, which reflects a sharp light in the sun, and it makes one's heart tremble when viewed from a distance.

Seeing the person coming, the young man saluted first, and then asked: "Luzhou Mu, are you here to take away everyone in the Mi Mansion today?"

Lu Zhi recognized the name of this young man who hadn't won the championship, and he and another young man named Guo Jia had previously fought against bandits in Xuzhou with extraordinary courage.

Lu Zhi and Huangfusong didn't speak, the officer behind them shouted: "Since you know that the general has an important task, why don't you get out of the way?"

Zhao Yun said seriously: "Your Excellency, if you came here to take away everyone in the Mi Mansion, please forgive me for not being able to get out of the way."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone behind him echoed.

Behind him stood hundreds of men, ranging in age from a few years old to those with crowns. They were all wearing light blue uniforms with the word "Confucianism" embroidered on their chests.

Huangfu Song suddenly realized that these people were all students of Confucianism Academy.

The academy was founded by Mi Yan's teacher, Zheng Xuan, but all the initial expenses were funded by Mi, especially the spacious and bright library donated by the students, which is the place where the students admire Mi Yan the most.

They had long heard about the decree of the imperial court towards Mi Ren after the death of the first emperor, and they were filled with righteous indignation at that time. They wrote articles criticizing the incident when they were in the academy, but Zheng Xuan suppressed it; then they heard that the new emperor issued an order to appease Mi Yan, he was a little relieved; later, he found out that the traitors in the court were not dead-hearted, and asked Mi Guoshi to send all his family members to Beijing as hostages again and again, so he broke out.

Scholars are the most righteous and passionate. They have not yet experienced the cruelty of the world at this age, and they are not afraid of everything.The more radical students simply organized the students in the entire academy, intending to block the people from the DPRK.

The shorter young man behind Zhao Yun took two steps forward, first saluted Lu Zhi and Huangfusong, and then said leisurely: "General Huangfu, student Guo Jia, general, can you listen to the students, and then make a decision."

Huangfusong is a general, and he has a headache for these young and energetic students: "Can you tell them to move away after you finish speaking?"

"The general came all the way from the capital to the east, and if he wanted to come, he could see the prosperity of Donghai County." Guo Jiadao, "But the students heard that Qu County was not what it is now in the early years. It was later that the Mi Mansion paid for the people to build bridges, pave roads, and build workshops. Hiring local people and providing them with several ways of life is the only way to see what it is today."

After Guo Jia said this, a young man behind him said, "General Huangfu, Yan also has something to say."

This is Cui Yan from the Qinghe Cui family, and also a student who just entered the academy this year.

"General, as the saying goes, there must be more celebrations in a family of good deeds. Mi's family benefits his hometown and neighbors, and Mi Guoshi is now far away in Youzhou to quell the rebellion. Dare I ask the general why he wanted to arrest Mi Guoshi's family at this time, so that Mi Guoshi was on the battlefield Are you distracted from worrying about your family?"

These impassioned words aroused countless sympathies, and even the common people who only dared to look at them from a distance echoed them one after another. They boldly stepped forward to talk about the favors they had received from the Mi Mansion, and begged Huangfusong not to take away the Mi Clan.

Huangfusong was speechless by their question, and even more shocked by the people's entreaties.

It was too late when Mi Zhu heard about it.When Zheng Xuan, Sima Hui, and Xun Shuang received the news this morning, they hurriedly left the academy and went to the Mi Mansion to discuss countermeasures. It was only before a cup of tea that the students all ran out of the academy and blocked the road.

He stood up abruptly, deeply moved.

How can there be any reason to hide behind these unqualified students?He hurriedly led his family to the place where the two sides faced each other from behind.

"Everyone, everyone," Mi Zhu said sincerely, "Thank you for your maintenance, but you are all students, and your priority right now is to study."

"Zhu will solve this matter properly, you go back to the academy first, okay?"

"No," Zhao Yun glanced at Mi You who was walking beside him, and said calmly, "Before the general leaves, I want Yun and Guo Jia to send Miss Ayou back to the village and protect you. Go all out."

"Anyone who wants to take you away, unless they step over Yun's corpse."

Hearing this, Lu Zhi smiled: "Brother Yizhen, have you seen it?"

Two years ago, he was arranged by Mi Eun to be the shepherd of Xuzhou. What he saw the most in Xuzhou was the local people's respect for the Mi family.

Here, the Mi family has already won the hearts of the people.If the imperial court forcibly takes people, it may arouse public resentment.

"Master Mi has anticipated this for a long time, and wrote a letter asking me to delay it for him. He said that after the chaos in Youzhou is settled, he will take his family back to Jingluo." Lu Zhi said, "Master Mi saved my life before, from a moral point of view. Said, I can't turn his family over to people with evil intentions."

Huangfusong sighed: "Why do you do this to me? Do you know what will happen to you if you stop me? It's easy to dismiss you from office. If His Majesty is tougher, I'm afraid it will kill you!"

"Besides, His Majesty just wants to bring Mi Guoshi's family to Beijing to enjoy the glory and wealth. This is a matter of course. Why do you stop it?"

Lu Zhi shook his head and smiled: "Brother Yizhen, do you believe this?"
