Three Kingdoms: I, Ma Su, Only Seek Death

It didn't take Zhuge Liang much energy to pacify Hebei. Less than a month after Zhuge Liang entered Jizhou, the unrest in various parts of Hebei had been pacified.

The only thing that bothered Zhuge Liang was the miserable state of Yecheng. After inspecting the ruins, Zhuge Liang and Ma Su both came to a conclusion.

Yecheng was abandoned. Given the degree of dilapidation, the cost of repairing it was equivalent to building another similar city. And because more than half of the local nobles were killed or injured, Weijun was no longer able to assume the function of Jizhou's administrative center.

So in the end, at Ma Su's suggestion, Yecheng was officially abolished. Jizhou's administrative center was also officially moved from Yecheng in Weijun to Nanpi in Bohaijun.

So far, Yecheng, the most important town in Hebei, left the stage of history four hundred years ahead of schedule.

At the same time, Ma Su also searched around Yecheng. As a result, it was finally confirmed that Zhong Hui, the first hero of Ji Han's recovery of Hebei, seemed to be really gone.

It is understandable, after all, the local big families in Hebei are just weak, not dying. Zhong Hui is amazing for being able to hold out for so long with just a few people to deal with them.

It's just that Ma Su always feels like a plot killer...

In addition, Ma Su's biggest gain is probably to rescue the last survivor of Cao Wei, Cao Mao, who was only five years old.

It has to be said that Cao Mao was really lucky. He was originally one of the masterminds who planned to escape with Cao Fang. In the chaos, he was responsible for rescuing Guanqiu Jian and making trouble with Guanqiu Jian to attract attention.

However, after Guanqiu Jian came out, he did not let Cao Mao stay and wait for death together, but asked him to chase Cao Fang to the south gate and leave together. As a result, by chance, he avoided all dangers and survived until the arrival of the Han army.

Ahem, let's get back to the topic. After recovering Hebei, Zhuge Liang immediately sent the news back to Chang'an. When the good news of the formal unification of the world came, the whole Chang'an was in a sensation.

Although many officials from Guanxi have joined the current court of the Ji Han Dynasty, the majority of them are still the leadership team in Yizhou. Since these people joined the court, unification of the world has been their ultimate goal.

And they have witnessed with their own eyes that this goal has gone from being out of reach at the beginning to victory in sight, and now it is a natural thing. When the unification of the world really came, all the civil and military officials of the Ji Han Dynasty felt a little unreal.

On the day when the news arrived in Chengdu, Guan Xing, Zhao Guang, Zhao Tong, Zhang Shao and others all asked Liu Chan for leave to return to Yizhou. The reasons given were exactly the same, all to go back to worship their ancestors.

Their fathers who had died of illness and were buried in Yizhou had been waiting for this day for a long time.

Liu Chan did not stop this. While approving them to return to Yizhou for sacrifice, he also personally issued an edict to enter the Taimiao for sacrifice.

Compared with Guan Xing and others, Liu Chan's ancestor worship seemed easier. Because the tombs of Guan Yu and others had not been moved to Guanzhong in time, while Liu Bei's tomb had been moved to Chang'an.

However, Liu Chan knew the importance of the matter and did not go to offer sacrifices immediately. Instead, he issued an edict to order Zhuge Liang, Ma Su and others to come back, to invite all officials to offer sacrifices together, and to set a time for unified rewards.

Liu Chan knew very well that it was not so much that he conquered the Han Dynasty as that he lay down. If it were not for Zhuge Liang, Ma Su and other loyal generals who risked their lives to save the empire from collapse, he would probably still be fighting crickets in Chengdu.

So on the day when the world was unified, major events such as offering sacrifices and rewards obviously needed to wait until all the important officials came back before they could be carried out.

"I am afraid I am the luckiest emperor of the Han Dynasty so far? I have hardly been involved in any government affairs, but I have won the honor of the Three Resurrections of Yan and Han."

Liu Chan recalled his gains and losses over the past few decades, and then he suddenly realized that he seemed to have won in the true sense of lying down.

Especially looking at his performance alone, it can be said that he was the worst among all the emperors, and he hardly participated in government affairs. But looking at his achievements, they are as famous as those of Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, which makes people feel the injustice of fate.

"Your Majesty is the one who is destined by heaven to revive the Yanhan Dynasty. These are all normal." The attendant next to him immediately replied.

"Stop talking nonsense. This is all the merits of my father and the general. What merits do I have?" Liu Chan saw it very clearly and shook his head to interrupt the attendant's compliments.

However, Liu Chan suddenly thought of something that he was more interested in at this moment. That is, what kind of temple name and posthumous title will he get after his death?

According to the mountains and rivers and achievements he has come to, the temple name "Zhongzu" is probably inevitable.

During his reign, the territory of Ji Han went from Yizhou to the world in just 20 years. Although it has little to do with him, a "Wu" in the posthumous title is probably necessary.

And according to his current virtue... maybe it should be Zhaowu?

"Your Majesty!"

Just when Liu Chan was concentrating on thinking about his temple name and posthumous title, the Minister of the Central Secretariat Fei Yi suddenly came in and interrupted his fantasy.

"Minister Fei, is there anything important?" Liu Chan immediately sat up straight and asked with a serious face.

It seems that he has to work again...

"Your Majesty, the world is unified now, and the Han Dynasty is revived. This is the time when the destiny belongs to us. So the Shangshutai wrote a letter, requesting a change of the year, and the Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai to clarify the destiny of the Han Dynasty!"

Fei Yi bowed his hands and reported to Liu Chan seriously.

"Ah? Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai? Me?"

…………

…………

…………

For every emperor, Fengshan ceremony at Mount Tai is the highest honor. Only the emperor who has truly achieved supreme achievements has the face to go to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to the gods.

Well... Song Zhenzong doesn't count.

And Liu Chan was very clear about himself. He was the Zhongzu who just came here by lying down. He counted as nothing. So Liu Chan, who knew that he was not virtuous, politely refused the matter.

However, it was obvious that the people in the Secretariat had misunderstood. After Liu Chan refused, the Secretariat immediately came up with a more radical plan for Fengshan on Mount Tai and submitted it to Liu Chan again.

This made Liu Chan a little bit amused and helpless. He was not just posing and asking for three resignations. He really didn't want to go. But the Secretariat and even the entire court did not allow it. Even Fei Yi went to ask Zhuge Liang's opinion for the third time.

Now, Liu Chan didn't dare to refuse and could only nod and agree honestly. This Han emperor, who had the best luck in history, was forcibly put on Mount Tai by his ministers...

However, in general, everything is getting better.

Although the country of Ji Han is still poor and blank, and the situation in northern Xinjiang has not eased much. Although the Hu horses in northern Xinjiang continue to move south as the weather keeps getting colder, the crisis still exists.

But at least, China was reunited, and it was no longer the Sima family that ruled this regime.

That was enough.

A new chapter was about to begin in China!
