It's still the old saying, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skins, empty their bodies, and act chaotically.

In the past, Chong'er died, and even encountered the desperate situation of Jie Zi pushing and cutting meat to feed, but in the end, Chong'er came over step by step, and this is why there is the famous Jin Wengong! Now, he Han Xian Emperor, after a lot of hardships, finally escaped from the hands of Li Dao Guo Yan and other thieves, before also experienced Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the suffering, absolutely no worse than the ear, think about it, the future will inevitably be a bright and smooth road, this Han Dynasty, once again in the middle of the task, it is estimated that it will fall on the head of his Han Xian Emperor!

Sure enough, the sky is as people wish, and Hanoi, which is not far away, is too guarded and publicized, and with the advantage of geography, the first to send troops to arrive, and to pay tribute with grain and rice, to rescue the emperor and his party in the fire and water. Li Dao and Guo Yan were hindered by the obstruction of publicity, but they did not dare to advance for a while, and since then, Emperor Xian has finally returned to the old capital Luoyang safely!

At this moment, Emperor Xian probably thinks that the time to let him show his strength has finally arrived!

Due to the relatively slow transmission of news in this era, although Cao Cao had already gotten the news when Li Dao and Guo Yan were fighting at the beginning, Emperor Xian was held hostage, and Cao Cao could not act rashly, if Emperor Xian did not run out by himself, then it would be useless for Cao Cao to go. When the time comes, you won't be able to grab the emperor, or the emperor will die, so what kind of son of heaven will Cao Cao serve.

Moreover, Cao Cao also hoped that Li Dao and Guo Yan would fight for a while to reduce their respective forces. It is also to avoid the huge losses that come with direct head-to-head combat. In addition, the more Emperor Xian is in a predicament. The greater the credit of Cao Cao's running to the rescue.

Sending charcoal in the snow is far better than icing on the cake. It is true that the decision to welcome the emperor has been made early in the morning. But it wasn't time for Cao Cao to act. Until he got the exact news, Emperor Xian took advantage of Zhang Ji's opportunity to reconcile. After escaping from Chang'an, Cao Cao finally launched his operation.

Just waited for the news to reach Yanzhou, and then Cao Cao sent troops to rescue Emperor Xian, and this time back and forth, Emperor Xian and his party had already fled to Luoyang without danger.

Of course, compared to the other princes, except for the Hanoi Taishou Zhang Yang who was simply going to fight the autumn wind, Cao Cao's reaction speed was definitely the fastest, and other places had not yet been decided. Before he even received the letter for help from Emperor Xian, Cao Cao had already sent troops here!

However, it was said that Cao Cao sent troops and rushed to rescue Emperor Xian, and what he brought with him was Xun Yu and Xun You's uncle and nephew who had served in the palace back then, or Xun Yu, and Guo Jiama, naturally, stayed to guard it, but he had not yet built the palace. First, the place has not yet been completely decided. After all, in the end, the emperor still has to nod, if the emperor does not agree, wouldn't it be a waste of money for you to fix it in advance? At least this beginning, in this kind of big thing. Cao Cao didn't dare to directly go against Emperor Xian's intentions, wouldn't that be a direct turn of face, so that Emperor Xian would think that Cao Cao was a person like Dong Zhuo!

Second. also didn't want other princes to see Cao Cao's intentions in advance. Just like there was Zhang Yang who just went to help rescue before, who would have thought. Cao Cao is planning to welcome the emperor, not just to rescue!

Once the palace was built in advance. It will inevitably arouse the vigilance of other princes, and it may cause some unnecessary trouble. People are like this, under normal circumstances, they don't want it, but once they find out that someone has robbed it, they will suddenly become caring. Yuan Shaohui once regretted that he didn't go to welcome the emperor, did he really regret his mistake in decision-making at the beginning? Actually, it's not, since Yuan Shao had hesitated before, he had carefully analyzed the benefits of welcoming Emperor Xian, but Yuan Shao finally decided not to welcome Emperor Xian.

So why would he regret it? Obviously, Yuan Shao saw that Cao Cao was completely like he had snatched the treasure, and subconsciously there would be a feeling that offering the emperor seemed to be more beneficial than he imagined, otherwise how could Cao Cao be such a shrewd guy as afraid of being snatched away by others. Under this psychological inducement, Yuan Shao naturally regretted it, he didn't seriously think about the essential difference between himself and Cao Cao now.

In short, Guo Jia is still in Juancheng now, and there is no action. Of course, almost all the preparations for the construction of the palace, including the materials and manpower, have been prepared in advance, but these people do not know what they are going to build yet. Or to be precise, they also knew that the palace was going to be built, but they didn't know that what they were going to build was the palace for the emperor to live in, and they thought it was for Cao Cao to live or something. And once he gets the exact news from Cao Cao's side, Guo Jia's side will act immediately!

On the other side, Yangzhou, Lujiang, and finally the city was broken.

Taishou Lu Kang, at the age of seventy, has always held on to the city, or his fatigue during this period of time squandered his last life, or he was disheartened after the city was broken. Soon after the city was broken, Lu Kang died of illness. Haojie's tough life ended tragically.

This year, Lu Kang died; In this year, Huangfu Song died; This year, Zhang Miao died; This year, Xu Shao died.

With the death of a group of influential figures of the times, in a trance, it seems that many years have passed, the times are changing, and the Eastern Han Dynasty seems to have come to an end.

As for Sun Luxun and others, who were originally attached to Lu Kang, before the city was broken, Lu Kang had already sent these clansmen back to his hometown Wu County to avoid the war, leaving Lu Kang alone to continue to stay in Lujiang to defend the city, vowing to live and die with Lujiang. Therefore, Lu Xun and others survived.

This battle of Lujiang is destined to be a tragedy, not only for Lu Kang, who defended the city, but also for Sun Ce, who attacked the city. Even if Sun Ce had shown weakness in every possible way, after the city was broken, the position of Lujiang Taishou promised by Yuan Shu before was still not handed over to Sun Ce.

Yuan Shu instead handed over Lujiang to his old subordinate Liu Xun. Of course, Yuan Shu did not forget Sun Ce's contributions, and Sun Ce naturally became a wealthy official, but he did not let out the town to defend one side, and there was no opportunity for free development, Yuan Shu still continued to keep Sun Ce by his side, and even cited Guo Jia as an example.

Yuan Shu said that he attaches great importance to Sun Ce, and is very optimistic about Sun Ce, look at Guo Jia on Cao Cao's side, that is the real favored minister, and the favored minister should always stay by the lord's side! Moreover, you are still young, the road is still very long, and there are still many opportunities, even if you want to go out to practice, there will be opportunities in the future, and the more turf, the more vacant positions there will be. Also, Liu Xun is already an old guy, for so many years, there is no credit and hard work. Anyway, if you can't do it for a few years, you will retire from old age, so what's the matter if you wait?!

In the face of Yuan Shu's rebellious again, Sun Ce really dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so he could only continue to hold his anger in his heart. Cao Cao kept Guo Jia by his side because he trusted Guo Jia, and you Yuan Shu kept him by his side because he didn't trust him Sun Ce, which is completely different! (To be continued......)
