Chapter 194: Liu Yu's initial battle with the ministers
All the princes left, leaving only Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang was named Zhijinwu and had the responsibility of guarding the palace. It could be said that he would follow wherever the emperor was.
Zhang Yang was promoted by Liu Yu, but he has always felt dissatisfied with the situation in Bingzhou being dominated by Liu Yu. Zhang Yang is also a person who wants to make progress, but Liu Yu has too many people who are better than him, so he has never been able to get it
This time, Zhang Yang disobeyed Liu Yu's order and led his troops to help in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. He thought he could escape Liu Yu's control and let the birds fly from now on. Unexpectedly, Liu Yu actually did it.
Such a big game of chess ambushed Dong Zhuo, successfully rescued the emperor, and granted him the title of King of Zhao. Sikong led Bingzhou Mu. Zhang Yang now regrets his rash action. As an official of Bingzhou, Zhang Yang is well aware of Liu Yu's acting style.
, he treats his enemies ruthlessly.
Zhang Yang has now become Liu Yu's enemy, and his troops are all from Bingzhou. If something unexpected happens, Zhang Yang can be sure that his troops will never listen to him.
After weighing the situation, Zhang Yang decisively came to Liu Yu to plead guilty.
"The guilty minister Zhang Yang pays homage to the prince." Zhang Yang knelt down in front of Liu Yu.
Liu Yu originally planned to deal with Zhang Yang, but he did not expect that Zhang Yang would come to him so quickly and said playfully: "Master Zhijinwu, why are you so generous? What are you guilty of? Get up quickly."
Zhang Yang knew that Liu Yu must have resented him. If he stood up like a brainless person now, endless blows would be waiting for him.
"The guilty minister disobeyed the prince's order and secretly mobilized troops from Bingzhou to ask the prince to punish him." Zhang Yang kept kowtowing.
"Oh. So that's what happened. In fact, it's nothing. That's your desire to serve the country. How can I stop you?" Liu Yu narrowed his eyes.
Zhang Yang didn't hear a hint of forgiveness from Liu Yu's words, and was even more frightened. It seemed that Liu Yu was not ready to let him go. He hurriedly kowtowed again and said: "Your Majesty, the guilty minister is old and frail. Please retire and return to his hometown.
May you enjoy your old age in peace, and I beg you for your permission.”
Liu Yu didn't expect Zhang Yang to be so smart. He knew that he was going to deal with him. He seemed to be a very good-minded person, but it was a pity that he couldn't use it to his advantage. Since he was willing to give up everything, Liu Yu would certainly spare his life.
Liu Yu nodded and said: "Well, Mr. Zhang is also working hard for the country, and I cannot force you to do anything. I allow you to retire and return to your hometown, so that you can enjoy your old age in peace."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Yang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief as he saved his life.
Zhang Yang's departure did not cause much turmoil.
As for Dong Zhuo's body, Liu Yu followed Liu Xie's instructions and hung it at the city gate to be exposed to the sun for three days. Then it was broken into pieces and the people of Luoyang clapped their hands and cheered.
At the same time, Liu Xie and Liu Yu also thought of Liu Bian, who was poisoned by Dong Zhuo. Liu Xie deeply felt that Liu Bian's death was pitiful, and posthumously named him King Huai. He also found Liu Bian's body, built a new mausoleum for him, and buried him in the spirit.
Next to the emperor's tomb.
Of course, Liu Yu would not object to this kind of thing, and he even read out a memorial poem in front of Liu Bian's new mausoleum in person, so that Liu Bian could know that he had killed Dong Zhuo.
Now the work center of the entire Luoyang court is focused on resettling the people and rebuilding Luoyang. Liu Yu was worried about the shortage of manpower, so he transferred Tian Feng, and at the same time arranged for Huang Zhong to return to Bingzhou to take charge of military affairs. There were two people in Bingzhou, Huang Zhong and Jushou.
There won't be any trouble.
However, on the issue of resettling the people and rebuilding, Liu Yu and the ministers in the court had differences, which led to the first confrontation between them.
Liu Yu proposed to resettle the people first, and put the people first in all supplies, and then build the palace. This was because Liu Yu had limited financial resources. Just to resettle the people, the amount of food and grass he needed every day was astronomical. Fortunately, he stopped Dong Zhuo earlier, and he
Half of the wealth and food collected previously fell into the hands of Liu Yu, so that Liu Yu could properly deal with the people's problems. At the same time, Liu Yu continued to move the people of Luoyang to Bingzhou. The people also knew the current situation in Luoyang
It is not very ideal. It is rare to meet a good prince like Liu Yu. Although it is difficult to leave some hometowns, some people are willing to go to Bingzhou in order to survive. In order to eliminate the worries of the people, Liu Yu recorded all the people.
, promising that after Luoyang was successfully rebuilt, the people could still return to live in Luoyang. With Liu Yu's promise, the people also gave up their worries, and more people moved to Bingzhou. After arriving in Bingzhou, the people discovered
The reality is not as difficult as they imagined. The local officials in Bingzhou have made arrangements and allocated housing and fields. The officials are not like the local officials in Luoyang. In such a good place, the people also quickly asked someone to bring the message.
Give it to your relatives and friends and ask them to come together.
The ministers disagreed. They pointed out that the palace was burned like this by Dong Zhuo, which could not reflect the majesty of the royal family at all. They insisted that the palace should be built, and the ministers' problems should be settled before considering the people.
Liu Yu felt that the brains of these ministers had been kicked by donkeys. Building the palace was such a huge project, and the money and food consumed was unimaginable. Of course Liu Yu would not agree.
Of course, the ministers knew how difficult it was to build the palace, and their main purpose was to solve their own problems. The ministers pretended to be reluctant and said that the palace could be built slowly, but the ministers also represent the face of the court, so this matter needs to be done carefully.
Treated.
Liu Yu finally figured out that these ministers were all thinking about themselves, and the talk of royal majesty and court dignity was all nonsense.
Liu Yu looked at these ministers coldly. The ministers were also calm and composed, as if they were sure of Liu Yu.
Liu Yu finally decided to ignore these ministers and placed Liu Xie in a palace that was not burned down. All supplies were in accordance with the emperor's standards. Except because Liu Xie was young, Liu Yu could not provide him with women. He took almost every possible care of him. As for Liu Xie's young age, Liu Yu could not provide him with women.
Whether these ministers have any objections is not what Liu Yuhui cares about.
The ministers did not expect that Liu Yu would ignore them and ignore them, even basic food and accommodation. This was even more cruel than Dong Zhuo. Although Dong Zhuo was cruel and liked to kill people, he would still support these ministers.
.
The ministers rushed to Liu Yu to protest, asking Liu Yu to guarantee the basic treatment of their ministers in the DPRK. Liu Yu also felt that it was too inhumane for him to do so, and the basic survival guarantee should be given to these ministers. So Liu Yu saved food.
They were frugal and met the needs of the ministers. Green vegetables and white porridge were provided every day to ensure that they would not starve to death. However, Liu Yu's subordinates provided the food as usual every day, and they had everything they needed.
The ministers were angry, feeling that they had been insulted by Liu Yu, and ran to Liu Xie to complain.
Liu Xie had just stepped out of Dong Zhuo's shadow, so he couldn't care about the affairs of these ministers. He tactfully expressed that he wanted the ministers to be considerate of King Zhao. It was not easy for King Zhao.
The ministers had a dark look on their faces, saying, "Your Majesty, you have a brother, so don't surrender." After complaining to Liu Xie to no avail, the ministers, led by Dong Cheng and Fu Wan, came to Liu Yu again.
Liu Yu still talked about the shortage of food and grass in front of the ministers, and the various treatments were really not up to par. He hoped they would be considerate.
Dong Cheng and Fu Wan angrily said that Liu Yu must act in accordance with the court's system and cannot treat ministers badly or favor one over another.
Liu Yu insisted that the current shortage of food and grass could not meet their needs.
When the ministers wanted to insist again, Liu Yu made a big move, saying that because Bingzhou was threatened by foreigners, Liu Yu, as the vassal king, could not stay in Luoyang for long, and it was time to lead his troops back to Bingzhou.
The ministers finally panicked. If Liu Yu just walked away like this, then who would protect them? Dong Zhuo's old troops were all watching them. As soon as Liu Yu left, it was guaranteed that Dong Zhuo's old troops would come and kill him. And without Liu
Yu, the ministers will have no source of food and grass, and I am afraid that they will not even be able to eat vegetables and white porridge.
Dong Chenghe said on the spot after Fu finished that he would obey King Zhao in the future. King Zhao was still needed in Luoyang to continue to sit in battle to protect His Majesty's safety. They would never cause trouble to King Zhao.
In the following days, the ministers really did not go against Liu Yu. Many ministers also spontaneously helped Liu Yu settle down the people and work, which greatly reduced the work pressure of Chen Gong and Tian Feng. The people gradually settled down, and the situation in Luoyang
It has been temporarily stabilized. As long as it persists for a year and survives next year's autumn harvest, Luoyang can almost become Liu Yu's largest base.
