Since the Jin Dynasty moved south, except for a few people such as Liu Yu and Chen Qingzhi who briefly entered Luoyang, they have not officially appeared on the streets of Luoyang for hundreds of years.
The attire of a great man, the attire of a superior country!
For a time, many people who saw this scene, especially the Han people, had mixed feelings in their hearts. Since the establishment of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Xianbei rulers have been actively promoting the legitimacy of their regime, and this promotion is through various aspects.
, which fundamentally determined the orthodoxy of the Xianbei regime in the north.
This also attracted many Han people to actively integrate into the northern court, and gradually the northern court and the south were completely on the same level in moral ethics. Even compared to the Jiangnan gentry, famous families such as the Guanlong Family and the Shandong Family appeared in the north.
As the biggest guarantee for the inheritance of the northern regime, the two sides also began to attack each other's legitimacy. The north called the south "southern barbarians" and "island barbarians", while the south called the north "barbarians".
It can be said that people in the north, whether they are Xianbei or Han, actually believe that they are orthodox from birth, and believe that orthodoxy and destiny should be on their side. However, with the passage of time and the Xianbei policy implemented by the Northern Zhou Dynasty, many
Han people, especially those who originally hoped to be able to realize their ambitions, were surprised to find that the court they supported and supported did not seem to really regard themselves as a member, and the sage books they learned in elementary school and what they knew about themselves as Han people
It seems that my identity has become very ridiculous under this policy.
In any case, the Northern Dynasty was the court of the Xianbei people, not the Han people. In this era, although Confucianism was still the mainstream of the times to a certain extent, it had not yet been distorted by a series of distortions and turned into the stereotype of the later generations.
As well as the appearance of pure loyalty to the emperor, people still have basic judgment ability.
Therefore, when the banner of the Han Dynasty and the clothes of the Han Dynasty suddenly appeared on the streets of Luoyang, everyone who saw this scene had different feelings in their hearts.
And the envoy of the Han Dynasty, who was holding on to the railing of the carriage and looking at the road and palace ahead, was filled with emotion at this moment.
Xu Shanxin is actually a somewhat foolish and loyal person. He is loyal to His Majesty and the dynasty. This is exactly what Li Xingchen values. It would definitely be disgusting to have this guy who would seek benefits for the king at all costs come to see Yu Wenxian.
he.
As a person who was born and raised in the south of the Yangtze River, Xu Shanxin never imagined that one day he would be able to walk on the streets of Luoyang, and in this capacity. Looking at the styles of the clothes and armor around him, they all had a clear Xianbei style.
Soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and looking at the carved beams and painted buildings around them, all of which were of Han style, Xu Shanxin felt an unspeakable heartache.
Hundreds of years ago, this was the capital of the Han Dynasty and the place where the world came to court!
But now it has been contaminated with the smell of barbarians for three hundred years!
But now that I am entering Luoyang City as an envoy, I can imagine that in the near future, I will come here as an ordinary minister of the Han Dynasty to meet the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.
Xu Shanxin took a deep breath. To be honest, when he couldn't surrender to Li Xingchen, he had a hundred unwillingness in his heart, but now all these complaints have been wiped out with the scene in front of him.
This is almost the first time since Chen Qingzhi entered Luoyang that an envoy from the south has entered Luoyang City with an equal or even higher status. This honor itself already belongs to him. Compared with Nan Chen, who is far away from home, following him
Only with His Majesty now can I realize my ancestors' dream of returning to the north.
"May I ask, is Mr. Xu, a general minister of the Han Dynasty?"
The carriage stopped at the entrance of the mansion. It used to be the prime minister's palace of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but now it has been changed into the general's palace of Yuchi Jiong. Of course, Yuchi Jiong did not have the courage to take over even the vacant palace. At this time, an old general was standing next to the carriage.
, sizing up the young envoy.
Needless to say, this old general knew that he was none other than the veteran general Wei Chijun who was stationed in Luoyang.
Yuchi Jiong can be said to have reached the peak of his life in the past two years. When he first participated in the battle for Luoyang between the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty as a general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, he was just a small rear guard general. Although he was responsible for covering the retreat of the Northern Zhou army
He became famous in the first battle, but in the end he was just a partial general. And now Yuchi Jiong is already the commander of the Western Front under King Qi, that is, the commander of the front line in the confrontation with Yang Jian. He is an out-and-out military leader in Yu Wenxian's system.
First person.
Of course, Yuchijiong stood here alone, and his figure looked particularly lonely. His most trusted man, Cao Xiaoda, had died in Xiangyang, and his eldest son Yuchikuan was also injured and captured. The only one he could rely on was to escape with difficulty.
Yuchi Shun, and even Yuchi Jiong's family members were trapped in Xiangyang City. In the end, Yuchi Jiong's wife, Yuanshi, came forward and dedicated the Yuchi family's daughter to Li Xinchen in exchange for Li Xinchen's grace not to kill him. Of course, these family members were also
Li Xingchen stayed to deal with Yuchi Jiong.
For Yuchi Jiong, Xiangyang was lost, his family members were all in the hands of the enemy, and even his granddaughter was used as a gift to please Li Xingchen. It was definitely a great shame and humiliation. Therefore, he has obviously aged in the past two years, and it is obvious that he is under a lot of pressure.
The shame and humiliation made him want to take revenge directly on Li Xinchen, but now he obviously had more important things to do, so much so that Li Xinchen sent an envoy, and Yuchi Jiong even had to entertain him well.
Not far behind Yuchi Jong stood a civilian official, who looked unprepossessing. It was Shi Li Hui, Yuchi Jong's general-in-chief.
Yu Chijiong didn't seem to be in a good mood, he was just being polite out of politeness, and Xu Shanxin naturally didn't dare to show off. Yu Chijiong's granddaughter was granted a concubine title, and was even pregnant with His Majesty's child. Your Majesty
After all, they are all the grandson-in-law of this old general. Xu Shanxin immediately and solemnly handed over his hand: "Xu Shanxin, General Secretary of the Han Dynasty, has met the old general Yuchi."
Yuchi Jiong nodded slightly and made a gesture of invitation: "Xu Jun, please."
"Old General, you are polite." Xu Shanxin smiled and lowered his voice, "My Majesty and the Concubine Xian have entrusted the foreign minister to convey their greetings to the Old General and the Young General."
Yuchi Jong was startled for a moment, frowning and staring at Xu Shanxin.
But Xu Shanxin didn't seem to care about Yu Chijiong's reaction at all, and walked straight inside.
Yuchi Jiong immediately gritted his teeth secretly. In fact, if he really had to choose, he would never want to see the envoys of the Han Dynasty. The Battle of Xiangyang was a key battle in which Li Xinchen reached out to the southeast. Yuchi Jiong's family fell into the hands of Li Xinchen. This also
It's not much of a secret.
However, Yu Wenxian did not doubt Yu Chijiong's loyalty, and even threw several guys who slandered Yuchi Jiong into prison. (To be continued)
