Chapter 127: The spring breeze in February is like scissors
In Luoyang, the spring breeze is blowing, and on the official road in the east of the city, there are endless teams moving. From time to time, a ranger passes by the sides of the team, rolling up waves of dust, making the forest-like flags cover a halo in the sun, making it look extraordinary.
At the end of November last year (the second year of Guangde of Zhou State), the Zhou State destroyed the Chen State, and the Zhou army first arrived in Jiankang and then Guangling. Then various parts of the Chen State issued an edict to make a decision.
In late January this year, the army returned to the court. Wang Yu and Wen of the Bin left the general to guard Jiankang, and then set off for Chang'an with the emperor Chen Shubao, the prince, the royal family, and the civil and military officials of Chen.
The team crossed the river to Jingkou and arrived at Guangling on the north bank, and then advanced westward. The team continued for hundreds of miles in a huge scale and looked very spectacular from a distance.
It is now late February. The triumphal army arrived in Luoyang. After a short rest, they had to pass through Shanzhou and Tongguan into Guanzhong.
The people of Luoyang left the city one after another and watched on both sides of the official road. First, they wanted to see how powerful the official army was, and they wanted to see the style of the Southern Dynasty characters so that they could have a topic of discussion in the future.
The north and south have had hundreds of years of disputes, and now the world is finally unified. It is so grand that ordinary people are fortunate to participate in it. Naturally, they are filled with people on both sides of the official road, regardless of men, women, young and old, standing on tiptoe, stretching their necks, trying to see clearly the various people in the team.
For ordinary people, the various flags and clothing colors in the team are completely unclear. They only know which carriage looks better and which carriage looks better, just to make a living.
Seeing the energetic official army, he said "magnificent", and when he saw teams of support, he praised "good-looking". When he saw tall horses, he couldn't help but sigh: How much food should he have to be fed this day!
The people were very excited to watch the excitement, and all kinds of rumors were also very popular. There were rumors that the government army found gold and silver in Jiankang Taicheng, and tens of thousands of people moved for several days, so everyone wanted to see how many cars of gold and silver were transported in the team.
There are also rumors that a general named Wang dug up the tomb of the founding emperor of Chen State, burned his remains to ashes, and then swallowed them directly into his stomach to avenge his father.
The father of General Wang was said to have been killed by the founding emperor of Chen forty years ago, so General Wang has been thinking about avenging for the past forty years. Now he has been revenge, but he has violated military discipline and I don’t know what the final outcome is.
Digging a grave and slapping a coffin, destroying a human corpse is a sensational evil deed, but the son avenged his father, but it makes people feel deeply moved.
Killing people to pay for their lives, owing debts and revenge on blood relatives is natural. For the people, this is the law of nature, so many people want to see who this General Wang is.
If there were no soldiers on both sides of the road to maintain order, I was afraid that the crowds who watched the fun would block the road.
In the dusty team, many people were so tired that they saw Luoyang right in front of them, and they all wanted to rush into the city to rest well.
Luoyang officials have already made preparations and organized a large amount of manpower and material resources to prepare for reception. Not only have they set up tents early so that the soldiers can rest, but the inn is also ready.
The inn not only needs to receive the generals of the government, but also the emperor of Chen and all officials. Although the other party is already a prisoner, the basic etiquette must be obtained so as not to be criticized.
How to deal with the ruler and ministers of Chen State has to be decided by the ruling prime minister. Until then, no one can make his own decisions, so the officials in Luoyang naturally dare not take it lightly.
The inn officials did not dare to neglect them and had already cleaned up the hall. Because there were many people who wanted to move in, many private houses were even temporarily requisitioned for reception.
The team of troops was very long, and there were many officials from Chen State who entered Beijing, but not everyone arrived in Luoyang today to stay in the inn. Therefore, after the Luoyang Inn was temporarily expanded, it would be more than enough to receive it.
The vanguard team had passed through Luoyang one after another a few days ago. The team that entered the city now is mainly generals such as Bin Wang Yu and Wen Wen, as well as the accompanying Emperor Chen and the royal family. Naturally, they must be particularly careful when receiving it.
As the little tomb of Tokyo, King Bin has a mansion in Luoyang and does not need to stay in the inn. Each general has his own place to stay in the city according to the arrangements of the government. Therefore, the guests who stay in the inn today are the emperor of Chen and the main royal family.
Chen Shubao, who was half paralyzed, was carefully carried off the carriage and then carried into the bedside, and Chen Wuhua, who accompanied Chen Shubao all the way, followed closely behind.
Empress Dowager Liu Jingyan and the other concubines in the harem of Chen State had their own arrangements. Since they became prisoners, the Zhou army has not made much trouble for these female relatives. Both Chen Shubao's concubines and princesses were safe and sound.
The prince of Chen State, Chen Shen and the princes who were traveling with him, also had their own placement.
According to the arrangement, Chen Shen lived with his mother-in-law Chen Zhuang, but for some reason, the two of them were waiting in the yard and could not enter the room for a while.
Chen Shen is calm, but Chen Zhuang is different, and his dissatisfaction is beyond words.
Chen Zhuang and Chen Shen were both born by Zhang Lihua, but unlike their handsome brothers, they looked a little ugly, but their father loved him very much. It is precisely because of this that Chen Zhuang was irritable and beat and scolded and abused his entourage.
If it were the past, who would dare to neglect him so much and let him stand in the yard, he would definitely use a whip to slap people.
But now it’s different. He is a prisoner and cannot beat and scold the minor officials of Zhou at will. Even if he is unhappy, he has to endure it.
The two brothers stood there and no one came to lead them into the room.
There was an attic in the distance, with a slightly open window, and a thousand-mile mirror stretched out, as if someone was using it to peek at Chen Shen and Chen Zhuang.
In the attic, Zhang Lihua held a thousand-mile mirror and looked at her two sons. When she saw her two sons calmly, her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
Since she and Chen Jae were "disappeared in the chaos", they have never seen relatives again. Now Zhang Lihua has received Yuwen Wen's permission to meet her son here, but she can only watch from a distance. It is impossible to speak, and it is even more impossible to actually meet.
The Concubine Zhang Lihua of Chen State was long gone in the chaos. Now she is the Zhang family of King Bin of Zhou State. It is good to see her son from afar, let alone meet Chen Shubao.
The State of Chen was destroyed and Chen Shubao was paralyzed. Zhang Lihua only had two sons to worry about. Now that his son has entered Chang'an, it is unknown what arrangements will be made in the future.
If he was exiled to the frontier, he would probably never see him again in his life.
Thinking of this, Zhang Lihua felt sad from her heart, but she was powerless and could only use the Qianli Mile Mile to look at her son a few more times.
She was sad and happy on the other side, while Chen Ja was sad and happy on the other side.
Chen Ma was the sister of Chen Shubao, and her mother Shi was the concubine of Emperor Xuan. Now she followed the army into Guanzhong and also stayed in the inn today.
Chen Jae has been on the side room of Yuwen Wen. Now he has obtained Yuwen Wen's concession and is waiting in a small attic inn. He saw his mother from afar with a thousand-mile mirror and two brothers.
Seeing her mother and her brother An, Chen Ma was in a state of sorrow and joy, covering her mouth and sobbing. She couldn't meet her mother, and she could only watch from a distance.
