The Nameless of the Common Clans

Chapter 398: Moving the Capital

Huangfusong's illness was not fake, and Chen Mo came to see him in person the next day. However, what Chen Mo saw was not his illness, but Huangfusong's fate.

Sitting in front of the couch, Chen Mo looked at the haggard Huangfu Song with complicated eyes. His fate seemed to have come to an end.

"Father~" Huangfu Jianshou called softly: "Marquis Changling is here."

"Don't disturb the old lieutenant." Chen Mo shook his head and stood up to leave, but Huangfu Song had already woken up.

"But Marquis Changling?"

Huangfusong tried hard to open his eyes.

"Exactly, it's Mo's fault for disturbing the old lieutenant's rest." Chen Mo knelt down again and took Huangfu Song's hand.

"It doesn't matter, I'm about to die." Huangfu Song closed his eyes and shook his head.

"Why did the old lieutenant say this?" Chen Mo said with a smile: "Who doesn't have three disasters and five illnesses in this life? Getting sick is also a common thing. The old lieutenant takes good care of his illness. After the illness is cured, the court will not be missing. The captain is in charge."

Huangfu Song sighed, looked at Chen Mo with complex eyes, and a smile appeared on his face: "Does Marquis Changling know how much trouble your mouth has saved you?"

Chen Mo smiled and said: "With the princes of the imperial court sitting in charge, what kind of trouble can happen?"

Huangfu Song shook his head and did not say more on this topic. He just said: "I have met countless people in my life. Marquis Changling is an outstanding person. There are many things that I know that Marquis Changling has already established in his mind. But this is There are many things in the world that should not be rushed. With the power of Changlinghou and the age of Changlinghou, as long as Changlinghou is willing to wait, there is probably nothing that Changlinghou cannot do in the world. Although Jianshou is dull, it can be achieved. The material..."

Huangfusong's words seemed a bit confusing, but Chen Mo understood.

After talking for a long time, Huangfu Song seemed tired and fell asleep again. Chen Mo stood up, saluted Huangfu Song, and left with Huangfu Jianshou as a farewell.

"Don't be surprised, Marquis Changling. My father has been talking nonsense these days." Huangfu Jianshou bowed.

"Take good care of the old lieutenant." Chen Mo nodded, comforted Huangfu Jianshou, and left with Dian Wei.

What Huangfusong said was not nonsense, Chen Mo deliberately made sure, but what did he want to express? Is the Huangfu family willing to surrender to Chen Mo? Or do you support some of Chen Mo's actions?

But more importantly, I am afraid that it is still paving the way for Huangfu Jianshou. He hopes that Chen Mo can use Huangfu Jianshou. He believes that Huangfu Song will also have an explanation for Huangfu Jianshou. The change of old and new rights will be accompanied by the changes in people's thoughts. Most of the younger generation cannot understand the feelings of the older generation towards the Han Dynasty. What about the next generation?

Time is a terrible thing.

Huangfu Song finally passed away at the end of February. Huangfu Jianshou resigned from the court to honor his father. In March, with the completion of preparations for moving the capital, the formal capital move began. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty moved to the capital under the silent leadership. Luoyang.

Hongnong, Huayin, the ancestral residence of the Yang family.

"Alas~" Yang Biao looked at the third letter in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and sighed helplessly.

"If father doesn't want to be an official, he can resign." Yang Xiu looked at Yang Biao in confusion: "Why are you sighing?"

"How can it be so simple?" Yang Biao shook his head, looked at Yang Xiu and said helplessly: "Although Dezu is extremely smart, there are some things that are not as good as Chen Mo after all."

Hearing this, Yang Xiu acquiesced. He had competed with Chen Mo. Yang Xiu admired Chen Mo's literary talent and martial arts. There was no shame in being inferior to Chen Mo.

"Now Chen Mo needs me to serve as Taiwei, because he wants to use my name to fight against the Suiyang court. If he doesn't do it, the Yang family will not be able to tolerate him after all." Yang Biao said: "But if you agree to Chen Mo, you will be evil to Cao Cao. ”

These two people were both powerful men in the world, and Yang Biao was unwilling to offend either of them, but in the current situation, he had to offend one of them.

"In this case, why should father be entangled?" Yang Xiu heard the words and said with a smile: "Now that my Yang family is under the rule of Changling Marquis, I should support him. As for Cao Mengde, according to Xiu, although he won the land of Xuzhou, We are still surrounded by enemies on all sides, even if we occupy the sky, it will not last long.”

Even though he occupied the Central Plains, Cao Cao was still surrounded by enemies on all sides. Among the three heroes, Cao Cao was undoubtedly the most disadvantaged in terms of terrain.

"What can I do if I shouldn't?" Yang Biao said with a bitter smile. Now Chen Mo has led hundreds of officials to Luoyang. Huayin is the only place he must pass through. Chen Mo has sent a greeting card and is going to visit him in person. It can be said that Yang Biao has been given enough. Face, if Yang Biao is still unwilling to serve as an official at this time, then the Yang family will be embarrassed and beaten in the future. Don't be surprised. Although they are also the fourth generation and the third prince, the Yang family has obviously not really used this reputation. Now, the best time has passed. The most important thing is that no one in the Yang family can be like Yuan Shao. That way, the only choice left to the Yang family now is to choose which family to serve as an official.

Yang Xiu smiled and said: "Father, this may not be a disaster. Looking at the situation since Changlinghou took charge of the Third Assistant, the politics have been clear, the people's hearts have gradually become more attached, and there is a hint of great prosperity. It is really rare for a clear leader to do so."

Yang Biao glanced at Yang Xiu. His son obviously had some inexplicable admiration for Chen Mo, but in his heart, Yang Biao believed in Han orthodoxy more. If he had a choice, he would still be willing to serve under Cao Cao instead of Chen Mo.

But the matter has come to this, for the sake of the family, he cannot follow his own preferences, and agreeing to Chen Mo is his only choice at the moment. Otherwise, Chen Mo's methods can ruin the reputation of the Yang family, and Chen Mo will not be able to bear any responsibility for the destruction of the Yang family. Infamy can even make people applaud. This is what Yang Biao really fears about Chen Mo. This method is much more sophisticated and terrifying than Dong Zhuo.

On the tenth day of March, Chen Mo led all the officials to Huayin, and personally brought Zhong Yao and Zhao Wen to invite Yang Biao. This can be said to have given the Yang family enough face. Yang Biao did not refuse and accepted Chen Mo's invitation to replace Huangfu Song as the Grand Commandant.

The journey of all the officials is naturally not comparable to the march. It took a full month to get all the way to Luoyang, and it was not until the beginning of April that they arrived in Luoyang. Zhong Yun had already started preparing for this matter at the beginning of the year. When Chen Mo led all the officials to Luoyang, the Jiade Hall had been renovated. In addition, although Luoyang was much emptier than before, pedestrians could already be seen on the streets. Zhong Yun's achievements in Heluo in recent years were really good.

After Chen Mo led the court officials to settle down, he wrote a letter to the court, hoping that the emperor would return to Luoyang as soon as possible.

Of course, this is impossible, and Cao Cao will not let him go. The most important thing about this letter is to tell Cao Cao that Chen Mo has come to Luoyang. In addition, it is also to inform the Taiwei about the change of the Taiwei, and to urge the salary. The officials in the court have not received their salaries for several years.

"You little brat!" In Suiyang, Cao Cao looked at Chen Mo's letter, his face turned black, and he threw the bamboo slips in his hand directly on the ground. Why should he pay the court he raised? If there is really no money, just send the civil and military officials here. What's the point of asking for salary from me?

Cao Cao found that since Chen Mo became a vassal, he has become more and more shameless.

"My lord, what are you worried about?" Guo Jia and Xun Yu came in and saw Cao Cao getting angry, and asked with a smile.

"Chen Bodao, that kid, is bullying me again. He actually asked me for the salaries of all officials, and also for the previous years? How can this be justified in this world?" Cao Cao said with a dark face.

"This Changling Marquis is indeed a wonderful person." Guo Jia picked up the bamboo slips from the ground and read them through. He shook his head and smiled, then said seriously: "But my lord, I think we can take this opportunity to make friends with Changling Marquis."

"I make friends with him?" Cao Cao hummed, and the revenge of the arrow in the past has not been avenged yet.

"My lord has refused Yuan Shao's move of the emperor to Yecheng several times, which has made Yuan Shao quite dissatisfied. Although the Central Plains has been settled, it is surrounded by enemies. I think that my lord should unite with Chen Mo to resist Yuan Shao at this time." Guo Jia bowed and said: "Yuan Shao sits on the rich land of Jizhou, with abundant money and grain, and has three generations of officials. He has the support of people. Although my lord and Changling Marquis each have the advantage of time and place, they are not as powerful as Yuan Shao after all. It is right to unite to fight against Yuan Shao."

Cao Cao touched his chin and nodded when he heard it. He also had this idea, but his little brother became more and more shameless. He wanted to take advantage of him whenever he had the chance. Alas~ people's hearts are not as good as before!

"Do you really want me to give him a salary?" Cao Cao felt a little distressed. The salary of the three dukes and nine ministers was a huge sum. If it was on his side, Cao Cao could have suppressed it like Chen Mo did, or re-determined it, but now it was obviously impossible.

"Of course not." Guo Jia shook his head. The salaries of the civil and military officials could support a large army. Only a fool would give it. After thinking about it, Guo Jia smiled and said, "According to Jia, the Marquis of Changling may also have the intention of forming an alliance. My lord, you might as well send more envoys to him."

Joining the weak to resist the strong, this is the most basic idea, after all, Yuan Shao has a strong foundation. Chen Mo and Cao Cao have just stabilized the rear, and their foundation is insufficient. It is difficult for one family to compete with Yuan Shao alone, and they also have to worry about the other family taking the opportunity to attack, so this situation is difficult to break.

Cao Cao nodded. This is indeed the truth, but who should he send?

Now Cao Cao dare not send his son to Luoyang again. With Chen Mo's shamelessness, he might not even detain his son directly.

"My Lord, what do you think..." Xun Yu looked at Cao Cao and lowered his voice, "What do you think of Ni Zhengping?"

Cao Cao's facial muscles twitched when he heard this, and he looked at Xun Yu with a look of satisfaction: "What Wen Ruo said is exactly what I want!"

Ni Zhengping's name is Heng, a native of Pingyuan, with great talent and learning, and he is deeply loved by Kong Rong. In order to recommend Ni Heng, Kong Rong also wrote a special "Recommendation of Ni Heng".

He is a talent, but Ni Heng is arrogant because of his talent. If it were just ordinary arrogance, it would be fine, but Ni Heng is a bit unreasonable. He scolds whoever he catches, and Cao Cao is not spared.

Kill him? The incident of Bian Zhang is not far away, and Ni Heng is indeed talented. Cao Cao doesn't want to kill him, but this guy is really good at humiliating people. Cao Cao really can't stand it. Now it's just right to give him to Chen Mo to make him uncomfortable.

The monarch and his ministers smiled at each other, and their smiles were a little happy...
