Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 3222: Liu Cong's death

Jia Xu nodded. Originally, the city occupied by Cao Cao was prosperous in the Han Dynasty, but after this war, the people have experienced too many hardships, and they need a stable life even more.

"Officials sent from Chang'an will arrive soon. At that time, what I need is to stabilize the four states as quickly as possible and encourage people to farm. Jingzhou, Xuzhou and other places must be on guard against Jiangdong.

Soldiers and horses." Lu Bu said.

Jia Xu said yes. As a counselor under Lu Bu, he naturally had to take these things into consideration. This victory of the Jin army was a great encouragement to the Jin country.

The soldiers in the army were excited, while the aristocratic families in the city were in panic. The failure of the battle meant that more people would pay a heavy price for this war.

After the news of Cao Cao's defeat reached Liu Cong's residence, Liu Cong didn't look very good. The reason why he became the emperor of the Han Dynasty was because of Cao Cao's support, and Cao Cao controlled the power in the court, and Liu Cong also understood that Cao Cao

The intention is that his young age can be used as an excuse to assist Cao Cao. In fact, the situation of the Han Dynasty was also the same when he was in Xudu. Many major events came from the orders of the Prime Minister's Palace, not from the imperial court.

Whether they are officials under the rule or soldiers in the army, they will not disobey the orders of the Prime Minister's Office, but if they are replaced by orders from the court, they will be treated differently.

Such things are common under Cao Cao's rule. Everyone has a desire to have more power, including Liu Cong. Why doesn't he want to be a monarch who can control the life and death of others instead of being controlled by Cao Cao?

.

However, Cao Cao's ability is obvious to all. Over the years, if it weren't for Cao Cao's side, the Han Dynasty would have experienced greater turmoil. But this time, Cao Cao, who remains standing, has become a thing of the past. The failure of the battle with the Jin army means that

As Cao Cao sadly withdrew from the stage of history, even Cao Cao himself had the same fate as Yuan Shao on the battlefield.

Liu Cong couldn't calm down in his heart. He was the sage of the Han Dynasty and had been supported by Cao Cao over the years. Now he, the emperor, had become a prisoner. Thinking of the humiliation he would endure after becoming a prisoner of the Jin Kingdom, he felt unwilling to accept it.

The emotions spread in Liu Cong's heart.

Even a minister like Cao Cao could face death calmly after losing the war. As a monarch, shouldn't he have the courage to endure defeat?

At this time, there was no Cai family around Liu Cong, and no maids in the palace. He had never felt so panicked as now, as if death would come at any time. He could not and would not flatter Lu Bu like Liu Qi did.

A rope was hung from the beam, and the sound of a desk falling to the ground was heard. About a quarter of an hour later, the room fell into deathly silence.

A generation of emperor Liu Cong committed suicide by hanging from a beam in his room. The country had been destroyed. Even if Liu Cong survived under Lu Bu's rule, it actually didn't mean much. On the contrary, Liu Cong was able to face death calmly after the country was destroyed.

, this courage alone cannot be matched by Liu Qi, and when future generations evaluate Liu Cong, they will definitely have words of praise.

The soldiers guarding outside the room were shocked when they saw Liu Cong hanging on the beam after delivering food to the room. Liu Cong was an important figure and he did not expect to die like this. If the higher-ups were to hold him accountable, he would be

It's hard to blame.

However, the soldier still hurriedly reported the situation.

News of Liu Cong's death quickly reached Lu Bu's ears.

"Both are Liu Biao's sons, but Liu Qi is much worse than Liu Cong. Let's bury Liu Cong generously." Lu Bu sighed. Lu Bu really looked down upon Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi. This was why Liu Bei supported Liu Qi to become the emperor.

After that, the aristocratic families in Jingzhou had a lot of complaints against Liu Bei. Anyone could see what kind of person Liu Qi was, and Liu Bei supported Liu Qi to become the emperor just to better control Liu Qi. How could Liu Bei have such thoughts?

Will be recognized by the family.

Even if some aristocratic families follow Liu Bei, they only want to benefit from Liu Bei.

In fact, Liu Qi's performance was indeed a bit poor. However, Liu Cong was a bit young after all. He became the emperor of the Han Dynasty and had difficulty controlling his ministers. In the end, he supported Cao Cao. In fact, it was Cao Cao who wanted to get more benefits in troubled times.

That’s all.

The officials in the court did not understand Cao Cao's thoughts, and they also had hopes for Cao Cao. They hoped that Cao Cao could support the Han Dynasty to prosperity and stability in such troubled times. As for the power that Cao Cao currently has, when officials in the court

After gradually gaining control of power, he can overthrow Cao Cao's power in the court.

But now it seems that such a goal has been difficult to achieve. Of the two emperors of the Han Dynasty, Liu Cong and Liu Qi, one died after becoming a prisoner, while the other emperor Liu Qi was relatively satisfied with his current life and had long since lost

Got fighting spirit.

In fact, the princes themselves did not want to see a wise emperor appear at this time, because doing so would greatly damage the current interests in their hands.

When the emperor is weak, the princes can take the opportunity to develop their own strength.

In fact, Liu Cong's death was of great help to Lu Bu in stabilizing the city. After all, Liu Cong was the emperor of the Han Dynasty and still had considerable influence under Cao Cao's rule. It was inevitable that there would be people with ulterior motives.

People who take the opportunity to cause trouble, do not want to give up the fight, and want to change the current situation in their own way, will make betrayal.

After Liu Cong died, their hopes would be dashed, and more people would simply give up because they could not see what the outcome would be after fighting against Lu Bu.

There will definitely be people secretly blaming all this on Lu Bu, but will Lu Bu care about these things? Even if some people think that Liu Cong's death was ordered by him, so what? He is the emperor of Jin and executes prisoners.

What's wrong.

Liu Cong's death caused the aristocratic families and officials who still had hopes for the Han Dynasty to lose the direction of their struggle. With Liu Cong in the city, they still had hope. If they could help Liu Cong achieve a career, they could become

Being an important official in the Han Dynasty, what an honor it is for an official, but now that Liu Cong is dead, their direction of struggle has completely disappeared.

After Ms. Cai learned the news of Liu Cong's death, she instantly became much older. Although Liu Cong was not Cai's biological son, Ms. Cai put a lot of effort into Liu Cong. She wanted Liu Cong to achieve greater achievements.

, becoming the true emperor of the Han Dynasty, in this case, the Cai family can be revitalized, but now it seems that the dream has been shattered.
