Eight lieutenants agreed.
The news spread all over the world, especially in Luoyang.
Yuan was in charge of two armies, and He Miao was in charge of one army.
The eight schools of West Park were all under Liu Hong's control. There was even Jian Shuo, a man from a small yellow family, who served as a captain of the military school.
In the General's Mansion.
He Jin and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
It was not scary for Liu Hong to be in charge of the army. What was scary was that they had no army to use.
"Married clothes for others!"
Yuan Shao said mockingly," Yanchuan didn't manage to get an army this time. This is a wedding dress for the emperor. I heard from the little yellow men in the palace that Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and the others were originally on the list. Later, they were all crossed out by His Majesty!"”
"Not bad!"
Yuan Shu was extremely proud.
The two of them were the juniors of the Yuan family, and now they were able to lead an army alone. Their statuses were worlds apart.
"Ha!"
Dong Zhuo's eyes were filled with disdain.
However, he did not show it in front of He Jin.
What kind of person was Yan Chuan? He was a ferocious tiger that would eat people without spitting out bones. He had the eleven counties of Northern Liang in his hands, and he even had three legions that swept across the world. How could he put the Eight Schools of the West Park, an ordinary imperial army, in his eyes?
In his opinion, Yan Chuan wasn't just planning on one army.
"Tomorrow's court session!"
He Jin said in a deep voice," Yan Chuan's achievements in pacifying Wusun and destroying the Qiang Hu have not been decided yet. No matter what His Majesty rewards Yan Chuan tomorrow, none of you can disobey him. If you lose your military position because of this, it will be difficult to get it back!”
"Here!"
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu replied.
He Jin looked at Yuan Kui and said," Grand Tutor Yuan, you still have to work hard on Bian 'er's knowledge. We must not let that Liu Xie kid gain the upper hand. He is someone who has been known as Dong Hou since he was young. We cannot underestimate him!”
"Here!"
Yuan Kui smiled bitterly.
Back then, his Yuan family was still above He Jin, but in just a few years, he had to bow down. It was truly laughable.
The next day.
All the officials gathered in Jiade Hall.
Countless days ago, the atmosphere of fighting had disappeared.
Even many officials bowed respectfully to Yan Chuan.
"Hey!"
Yan Chuan stood in the court and swept his gaze across the officials.
After today, he would return to the Northern Liang once again. The next time he came to Luoyang, it would probably be the end of the world.
In the third year of Zhongping, Liu Hong only had two or three years left to live. At that time, the Ten Attendants of the Imperial Court and He Jin were fighting. In order to guard against him, He Jin would definitely call Dong Zhuo into the court. The plot of his previous life had finally returned to the right track.
Unfortunately, Dong Zhuo was in Bingzhou in this life while he was in Beiliang.
The timeline could be calculated with one's feet, but it was a pity that this huge Luoyang City would turn into a pile of ruins.
Yan Chuan looked at Zheng Xuan and smiled," Teacher Zheng, in the future, when we establish Daxing Academy in Chang 'an, I'm afraid that Beiliang will not lack the support of the scholars of the academy.”
"Don't worry!"
Zheng Xuan bowed and said," I have been friends with the Xun Clan for many years, especially Xun Ciming of the Xun Clan. When the time comes, I might go to Guzang with Brother Ciming to visit the Marquis of Beiliang and taste the strong wine of Beiliang!”
"Good!"
Yan Chuan smiled.
Burning Knife was not the name he came up with.
It had already been passed down during the Zhou and Qin Dynasties. Rumors had it that it had spread from Du Kang's family to Liaodong.
During the Battle of the Yellow Turban, the people of Youzhou who brewed wine moved to Beiliang, which was why they brewed such strong wine. He did not bring it from later generations.
"Stomp!"
"Stomp!"
Liu Hong led Zhang Rang, Jian Shuo, and the others onto the Dragon Platform.
In an instant, His Highness fell silent.
The ministers bowed their heads, only Yan Chuan stood upright with the Great Liang Dragon Sparrow.
Liu Hong waved his hand and sat on the dragon throne. He said in a deep voice,""In a few days, the Marquis of Beiliang has drafted the rules of the eight schools in the West Garden. I have also made a decision on their commander. The imperial edict of each army has been sent to each military headquarters last night.”
"Your Majesty is wise!"
He Jin, Yuan Feng, and the others shouted.
It was already good enough that they could end up like this in this competition. If this continued, Liu Hong would probably want to kill them.
Liu Hong nodded in satisfaction and looked at Yan Chuan,"Chongzhi, I plan to build the rules of the Eight Schools of West Park within a month and hold a review ceremony in Pingle. Do you want to stay and watch?”
"No thanks!"
"Although the Qiang Hu were destroyed, the Western Regions also pacified several countries!”
"But the Commanders of the Northern Liang are all in Luoyang. I'm afraid that the King of the South Xiongnu has long had disloyalty!”
"Rumor has it that Yu Fuluo invaded Bingzhou in the name of supporting the Youzhou royal army, which was why Zhang Yi was caught off guard and died in battle. If there's a chance, it's best to completely destroy the Southern Xiongnu as soon as possible!”Yan Chuan smiled faintly.
"Da!"
"Da!"
Liu Hong knocked on the armrest and said fiercely,""These Hu people beyond the Great Wall are really ignorant. They are capricious villains. They have betrayed and surrendered. Could it be that they have forgotten Ban Ding's expedition to the Western Regions more than a hundred years ago and pacified the various countries?”
"Your Majesty, the Marquis of Beiliang has made great contributions. If he leaves in such a hurry, I'm afraid I'll be disappointed!" Zhang Rang said in a low voice.”
Instantly.
Your Highness, He Jin's head was buried even deeper.
The conversation between Yan Chuan and Liu Hong had already proved that he would not stay in the royal court.
However, Yan Chuan had made many contributions and his power had reached the peak of the Great Han Dynasty. Unless he was promoted to Grand Marshal, how could he reward him this time?
He Jin was not the only one who was puzzled.
Even Yuan Kui, Dong Zhuo, and Lu Zhi were filled with anticipation.
They all wanted to see what kind of reward Yan Chuan had that was worthy of his achievements.
"When do we depart?"
Liu Hong looked down at His Highness and asked.
Yan Chuan's gaze swept across He Jin and the others, and he said in a deep voice,"I heard that Provincial Governor Dong is returning to Bingzhou today, so I won't stay in Luoyang any longer. Everything has been settled, so it's good to return early to make preparations!”
"So fast?"
Liu Hong frowned and said," With your achievements in the Northern Liang, I have been thinking for a few days. I am ready to surpass the ancestral system and confer you the title of Duke of Blood Cold. Now the seal and the imperial robe are being made in Taichang Mansion. I am afraid that I can only bring an imperial edict with me today!"”
"Duke?"
Dong Zhuo suddenly raised his head.
Yuan Kui, Lu Zhi, and the others were filled with shock.
General He Jin turned his head to the side as if asking," Liu Yan, you are the Grand Minister, can you be granted the title of Duke?
"Hey!"
Liu Yan sighed.
Although he was the Minister of State, he was still a relative of the Han clan.
Such a title was not worth disobeying Liu Hong. Moreover, he knew Yan Chuan's achievements.
"Duke?"
He Jin received an answer.
However, the shock in his heart was still difficult to remove.
The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin Dynasty, and there had never been a Duke of the 20th rank.
This title had been abolished at the end of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but it was recorded in the Book of Zhou Rites.
It was not until Dai Sheng, a scholar of etiquette in the former Han Dynasty, re-categorized the five ranks of nobility that the duke appeared in the eyes of the world. As for the so-called food city, Yan Chuan was in charge of the Northern Liang alone. Was there any difference between a duke and a food city?
"Cold blood!"
Yan Chuan muttered in surprise.
Jia Xu's pupils constricted as he whispered," General Yan, this title has a deeper meaning. We'll discuss it after we leave the hall!"”
