Chapter 385: Triumph of Luoyang
In Luoyang, the capital, after the war baptism of the Yellow Turban bandits, there were still some ruins left by the war in the city walls, but this could not hide the prosperity of Luoyang at all. The peaks like the mountain walls and palaces, the chariots and horses like swimming fish, the streets were scattered, and the pavilions and towers were scattered. The whole Luoyang was like a land that reached the sky on the earth, making Qin Ge feel as if he had seen the realm of heaven.
With the enthroned team Qin Ge came to Luoyang City, this was his first time to come to this imperial capital of China. The city wall, which was like a peak of Thousand Blades, brought oppression to Qin Ge like a giant beast.
Qin Ge looked at the giant city with shock, staring at the city wall in a daze, and Sun Jian, who was not far away, was also the same expression as Qin Ge.
"It's shocking! To be honest, I've been living in it before and didn't think there was anything. Now, I'm really shocking!" Cao Cao walked behind Qin Ge and sighed.
At this time, in front of the city gate, under the emperor's car, a strong man with a beard and strong body was wearing golden armor and looked extremely majestic. At the same time, a thin, pale and tall man with a tall head stood on the other side.
Cao Cao whispered to Qin Ge: "This is General He Jin, and that is Zhang Rang, the leader of the Ten Eternal Attendants! Don't look at that old fairy who is so delicate is absolutely cruel!"
He Jin welcomed the generals back triumphantly, and was greeting Dong Zhuo at this time. Dong Zhuo was his confidant and loved one, and he promoted him. This battle can be said to be the most popular. At this time, Dong Zhuo changed his previous arrogance and domineeringness, nodded and bowed in front of He Jin, and performed his best to flatter him.
He Jin also came over to greet everyone one by one. After a few simple greetings with Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, he walked towards the captains and greeted Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, who were promoted by him.
Qin Ge, Sun Jian and other powerful people who rose up in the bandit suppression ended. He Jin came over and nodded politely to everyone, saying hello.
Looking at He Jin, who was arrogant and disdainful to everyone, Sun Jian, who had always been tough, was furious and was about to get caught by Qin Ge and smiled: "People are under the eaves, so they have to bow their heads! Since we have chosen to be loyal to the court, we must abide by the ranks of officials!"
Sun Jian looked at Qin Ge with his eyes squinting. At this time, Qin Ge followed Zhu Jun to learn Confucian etiquette all the way, and the powerful aura of the body dissipated a lot, and there was a hint of elegance in his every move.
Sun Jian frowned and said, "Brother Qin, do you really want to abandon martial arts and follow literature, study the Four Books and Five Classics, and be a disciple of Confucian scholars!" Sun Jian was very puzzled by Qin Ge's apprentice to Zhu Jun during this period, especially now that Zhu Jun is afraid of the major forces in the court and is collectively besieged. It can almost be said that he is ruined. Didn't Qin Ge be his disciple cause trouble for himself?
Qin Ge pondered for a moment when he heard this: "The soldiers and armor returned to the warehouse, and the horses were placed in the south mountain. Now the world is in peace, and we can only hold the pen without a knife!"
"Hahaha!" Sun Jian covered his head and laughed out loud: "If Qin Ge becomes a scholar, the sun will really hit the west!"
However, Sun Jian's sudden laughter caused the frowns of He Jin and others. Sun Jian could only hold it in. Feng Fang said coquettishly: "These mud legs have just climbed up from the countryside. The general ignores them! I really don't know why they were summoned to Beijing! I'm not afraid of dirtying the prosperous holy land of the capital!"
At this time, a slightly mean voice sounded: "Of course we must count on these hawks to quell the rioters and rioters!" A young man in brocade uniform snorted coldly.
As soon as this person spoke, everyone bowed their heads and dared not speak. Yuan Shao walked over and whispered: "Don't expose the shortcomings of cursing people, the road is safe! Be careful!" It turned out that this person was Yuan Shao's younger brother, Yuan Shu, the legitimate son of Yuan's family. Compared to Yuan Shao's birth, Yuan Shu has a more noble identity and is recognized as the future leader of the Yuan family.
Yuan Shu sneered and said, "That's because some people are willing to fall into depravity, or are born to be inferior, and they are losing the style of my Yuan family!" Yuan Shao's face turned blue when he heard this, but he could not openly argue with Yuan Shu, otherwise tomorrow would really become a big news in Kyoto. He forced his smile and showed his respectful appearance.
Welcomed by the high-ranking officials and gentry in the city, the army of thieves entered the city in a mighty way. Seeing the crowded city of Luoyang, Sun Jian sighed: "Although Liangyuan is good, it is not a place to stay for a long time. Boxi's roots are in counties. Only there can we continue to make a fortune. Although this capital is good, once you enter, it is like a tiger with its minions worn away, and can only be slaughtered!"
Qin Ge was about to speak when a figure appeared in front of him. Liu Dai was wearing bright yellow clothes, looking at Qin Ge meaningfully and smiled, "General Qin, you have defeated the Yellow Turban bandits this time to really bring glory to my Yanzhou!" As he said that, he walked over and patted Qin Ge on the shoulder. The outsider looked like a harmonious expression of superiors and subordinates.
When Qin Ge saw Liu Dai's white and fat face, he wanted to give this ball two electric guns. Qin Ge replied with a smile: "Greetings to the governor!"
Seeing Qin Ge's appearance as a Confucian scholar, Liu Dai's anger that was suppressed in his heart instantly rose, and he gritted his teeth in Qin Ge's ear: "If you are surnamed Qin, don't pretend to be a big-tailed wolf. When you arrive in the capital, it's my world. Look, I won't play with you to death! Just wait for me!"
Qin Ge's expression changed slightly when he heard this. He heard Huangfu Song say that Liu Dai would secretly punish him. Unexpectedly, this guy was so narrow-minded. He broke up in front of him and seemed to be trying to embarrass him at all costs. Qin Ge was not used to Liu Dai, and raised his feet and stepped on Liu Dai's toes. Liu Dai immediately screamed like a pig, but was covered by the voices of cheering people.
Seeing this, Sun Jian gave Qin Ge a thumbs up and said, "I'm just saying that you are definitely not a scholar! But this person is a relative of the Han Dynasty. If you treat him like this, you will walk on thin ice in the capital!"
Qin Ge sneered: "I have offended this kind of villain anyway, so I don't care about this!"
Liu Dai limped and was supported by several familiar gentry children. He stared at Qin Ge who was chatting and laughing with Sun Jian with resentment, and said with a grin: "Your surnamed Qin will never be able to return to Mount Tai! Sooner or later, I will let you lie in front of me like a dead dog beg for mercy!" According to the imperial decree, although the Yellow Turban bandits had been pacified, bandits from all over the country were rampant, and they would confer the confiscation of the Yellow Turbans, such as Liu Bei and other brave men who made great contributions in white, were granted the title of county magistrates to maintain local public order.
Those who were powerful and powerful tribes of various counties such as Qin Ge and Sun Jian and who served as military officers in prefectures and counties were prepared to entrust important tasks to command the soldiers and horses of various prefectures and counties to suppress the rebellion everywhere. Because of Liu Dai's stupidity, Qin Ge not only promoted filial and honest officials in Yanzhou Prefecture, but also held an official position as a guardian of the Yue School. In addition to Zhu Jun and Huangfu Song's strong recommendation, he actually accepted the title of the emperor with Sun Jian and other generals. In order to demonstrate his martial ethics, the Han emperor gave half of the quota of the central officer in the palace to the military general who made great contributions this time, while Qin Ge inexplicably became a disciple of the emperor and won this supreme honor.
If Qin Ge returns to Taishan County, he will definitely take over the position of Taishan County Magistrate, and will inevitably divide Liu Dai's military and political power in Yanzhou to quell the bandits and chaos in Yanzhou. If Qin Ge really rises, he will likely lose his power. This makes Liu Dai unable to bear anything, so he uses money to exchange Qin Ge's local military and political power and grant it a deputy position in the Jiuqing Shaofu. Although the position is higher than that of Taishan County Magistrate, he has no real power. Qin Ge is a mountain man who has no support in Kyoto, and Liu Dai is not able to kill him. Thinking of this, Liu Dai showed a twisted expression of pain and happiness.
The general came to Luoyang City with the generals and finally came to Pingyang Gate in the inner city of the palace, informing everyone that tomorrow morning His Majesty would hold a banquet in the Western Garden to celebrate the suppression of the rebellion Yellow Turban bandits and also grant the title of heroes to quell the rebellion. After three bows to the imperial city, the generals left one after another, and those who had mansions in the capital such as Yuan Shao and Cao Cao went home one after another, while local tyrants such as Qin Ge and Sun Jian were arranged in the garrison of the Zhuque Que, which was a tower that guarded the palace. However, the que in the inner city was extremely tall and had long lost its function as a defense city, and was generally used to station the defending troops.
After saying goodbye to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others, under the escort of a team of Yulin Guards, Qin Ge and others were taken to Zhuqueque Que. As soon as they stepped onto the third floor, they saw a group of people wearing armor and lying on the railings, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the palace. These individuals were majestic and their eyes were like an eagle and tiger.
However, Qin Ge knew one of them, Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei! He is also an old acquaintance!
After all, Feng Xin was a child of a large group in Yanzhou. Seeing Qin Ge as an old friend, he smiled and said, "We have been waiting for three more days, and only Boxi and Wentai are the only ones!" As he said that, Feng Xin came over and hugged Qin Ge with affectionately. In the past, Feng Xin always had a sense of arrogant arrogance when facing Qin Ge, but now Qin Ge has become a Langguan, and his identity is the same as him, so the previous identity barrier seems to have disappeared at this moment.
Bao Xin introduced the two to everyone else, and at the same time introduced Qin Ge and Sun Jian to several people. It turned out that these six people were the other six men who were going to receive reward tomorrow. One of them was thin and bearded, and he was about 35 years old. He wore a tiger-skin helmet, curly hair draped over his shoulders, deep eye sockets and hooked nose, and looked like a foreigner. This person was the descendant of General Fubo, Ma Yuan, and Hehe in the late Han Dynasty.
The famous prince Ma Teng! The other four are Yuan Yi of Shanyang, Zhang Chao of Guangling, and Zhang Yang of Shangdang. Yuan Yi is a distant relative of the foreign tribe of the Yuan clan of the fourth generation and the third generation. Zhang Chao served under the account of Tao Qian in Xuzhou, and was also the younger brother of Zhang Miao, the leader of the gentry in Yanzhou. He and Bao Xin were regarded as nobles of the gentry. Zhang Yang of Shangdang was a favorite general of Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou. He started as a grassroots officer. When the Yellow Turban bandits attacked Sili, Ding Yuan sent him to lead his army to suppress the bandits and make great contributions.
Therefore, the seven doctors, Sun Jian, Qin Ge, Ma Teng and Zhang Yang, who were personally enthroned by the emperor, were born at the bottom, while Bao Xin and the other three were noble families. Perhaps it was because of their birth, perhaps Sun Jian and the other four were all people who were accustomed to fighting. The four of them quickly became familiar with each other. Because of their first arrival in Luoyang, they were more accustomed to the prosperity of Luoyang. Bao Xin and the other two talked more about romantic affairs among the gentry or royal relatives. Because of their different birth and experience, the seven doctors were automatically divided into two factions. As for Gongsun Zan and others, they did not come to participate in the enthronement because they were guarding the border.
Ma Teng is the oldest and a foreign-race mixed race. He is generous and enthusiastic and smiled: "What's the point of chatting like this? It's rare that brothers are so acquainted with each other. Why don't you drink something?" The heroes love wine and beauty the most, and Sun Jian and others are moved.
Bao Xin, Yuan Yi and others looked at the four local buns and said speechlessly: "Tomorrow, you will receive the reward from Your Majesty in Xiyuan and become the disciples of the emperor. The court will place us together for the baptism ceremony of the palace tonight. You are drunk and seeking death!"
Zhang Yang is a typical soldier and said inexplicably: "Baptology! What kind of baptism is it!"
