PS: Genuine readers will read it in ten minutes, thank you for your support
When Liu Yin and his entourage returned to Chengdu, it was already the end of the year, and the calendar of the sixth year of Jingyao—no, Liu Chan had changed his name to Yanxing in August, and now it should be called December of the first year of Yanxing—was about to end. Liu Yin looked at the towering city of Chengdu not far away, and couldn't help but feel infinite emotion in his heart.
In the calendar of the Han Dynasty, the first year of Yanxing was a terminal point, and the Han Dynasty, which lasted for 465 years, came to an end in this year, and the Han Dynasty became extinct. Although there are still some dynasties in the history of later generations that have used the name of the Han Dynasty, such as the Zhao Han and Cheng Han in the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms, the Later Han, the Southern Han and the Northern Han in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, but that is only a continuation of the name of a country, and the dynasty established by the Liu bloodline with Liu Bang as the founding emperor died in 263 AD after experiencing the three dynasties of the former Han, the Later Han and the Ji Han.
However, the course of history has quietly changed at this moment, and the Shu Han regime will enter the second year of Yanxing without dispute, and from this point of view, Liu Yin has changed history, from an insignificant time-traveler, to the creator of a new history. The second year of Yanxing will be a new era, and for Liu Yin, it will also be a strange era, all the memories of his previous life will be zero, and he will lose any meaning of reference, and he will be greeted with more opportunities and challenges.
Looking at the city of Chengdu from afar, Deng Ai's mood could not be calm, he had imagined the scene when he saw Chengdu City more than once, but coming to Chengdu City with his current identity was something Deng Ai did not expect.
He used to be a feudal official who was in power. He used to be a leader in the world. And now. He had to be incognito, willing to be someone else's retainer, the change of identity and status, between pride and frustration, such a big gap, made Deng Ai have a sense of ups and downs. If it was just to make a living, Deng Ai would never accept this humiliation, he would rather choose to kill himself with a horizontal sword. Nor will he bend his knees and defect. Sima Yi has the grace of supporting him, if it weren't for Sima Yi's wisdom and talent, Deng Ai, who stammered, was destined to be a small official who could only be idle for the rest of his life, and this grace of knowing made Deng Ai unable to rebel against Wei and surrender to Shu.
As for the family members who stayed in Wei, Deng Ai was not very worried, for the Wei generals who voluntarily surrendered or were defeated and forced to surrender to Shu, the Wei court was very generous, and after Xiahou Ba surrendered to Shu, his son was not implicated, after Guo Xun surrendered to Shu. The family was also safe and sound (Guo Xun later assassinated Fei Yi, and his son was also made a liege).
But Deng Ai couldn't let it go. It is a grudge with Zhong Hui, Zhong Hui is in a high position, holding nearly half of the military power of Wei State, and wanting to take revenge is tantamount to being more difficult than ascending to the sky for Deng Ai at this time. So Deng Ai had to put down his dignity and become Liu Yin's retainer incognito, he bet all his bets on Liu Yin, although this young man is still young, but Deng Ai believes that in time, he will have a time to soar.
"Big brother, look, there are really a lot of people in front of us to greet us!" Zhang Le pointed ahead, very excited.
Outside the north gate of Chengdu, flags fluttered and crowds of people were crowded, apparently welcoming them into the city.
Waiting outside the north gate today was the crown prince Liu Xuan led the kings and hundreds of civil and military officials below 2,000 stones, including Liu Zhan, the king of the northern land, and Liu Sui, the king of Xinxing. Such a standard of welcome ceremony is naturally from Liu Chan's instructions, Liu Chan, as the king of a country, must not be able to go out of the city to greet him, in order to show respect, Liu Chan specially arranged for the crown prince Liu Xuan to come forward on his behalf.
Liu Yin and the others hurriedly dismounted and saluted the princes, kings and ministers. Although he and Liu Yin are cousins, they have no deep friendship, but they just quarrel with Liu Yin according to the number of etiquette they should go, and they have never said a word of superfluous nonsense.
However, the new king Liu Xun's face was more uncomfortable than swallowing a fly, he was reluctant to come, but he didn't dare to resist the order, standing behind Liu Xuan, looking at Liu Yin, who had infinite scenery, and was jealous in his heart.
Liu Chen, the king of the Northland, was completely different, holding Liu Yin's hand, shushing the cold and asking for warmth, and even praising him, so much so that Liu Yin was embarrassed.
The people of Chengdu are sandwiched to greet each other, burn incense and bow down, the crowds are surging, the joy is thunderous, everyone wants to see the demeanor of Liu Yin and others, so that the road is blocked and difficult to pass. In the end, the Yulin Army had to be used to maintain order, so that Liu Yin and his party came to the palace gate smoothly.
Seeing the emperor, naturally these thousands of people could not go to the temple in a chaotic manner, and the officials of Bing Cao had already come to properly place Liu Yin and Fu Yan's subordinates, and only Liu Yin, Fu Yan, Zhang Le, Zhao Zhuo and a few others were really qualified to go to the temple to face the saints.
Liu Yin had secretly instructed Ah Jian to take Deng Ai's father and son back to the house first, after all, there were many people in Chengdu, and it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no one who knew Deng Ai, so he came to Wuyimen with Fu Yan and others, waiting for Liu Chan's summons.
Soon, there were deacons and eunuchs who led Liu Yin and them to the palace.
Liu Chan sat in the middle, compared to a few months ago, Liu Yin found that Liu Chan had gained weight again, probably because he was in a better mood, Liu Chan smiled and bowed, and his white and tender double chin was particularly cute - of course, only Liu Yin would use the adjective cute on the body of the emperor.
Liu Chan has no reason not to be in a good mood, the Yinping Resistance Battle, can be described as the most brilliant victory, Liu Yin led more than 1,000 people to defeat tens of thousands of Wei troops in one fell swoop, this is Liu Chan has never had a victory since he became the emperor, again and again the Northern Expedition returned in vain, Liu Chan had a headache when he heard about the war, and there was never such good news that made him feel refreshed. Although it is said that Deng Ai was not captured, the result of beheading 10,000 people is enough to cause a sensation in the entire Yizhou. Moreover, this victory fundamentally reversed the decline of Shu Han, the haze of the loss of Hanzhong was swept away, and even many optimistic people began to plan the great cause of recovering Hanzhong and then the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains.
In addition to rewarding a large number of gold, silver and satin, Liu Chan named him the ruling Jinwu, commanding the entire lieutenant's mansion, and crowned him as the general of Anxi, commanding three battalions, in addition to Fu Yan's first battalion, the tiger step battalion and the tiger cavalry battalion were also officially under Liu Yin's command at this time.
Although Fu Tong had the loss of Yang'an Pass, he still served as the governor of Guanzhong, and was promoted from General Zuo Zhonglang to the general of the town army.
Zhang Le and Zhao Zhuo followed Liu Yin to defeat the enemy, and were specially named the generals of Fenwu Zhonglang and Jianwei Zhonglang.
Liu Yinjun has those who hold positions, and they are all rewarded. (To be continued......)
