Liu Yu committed suicide.

Generals such as Xianyu Fu and Yan Rou did not put up much resistance and were ultimately defeated by the troops of Daxia.

Youzhou fell into the hands of King Xia.

When the news came out, the whole world was shocked.

Even though the various princes had anticipated this, they hadn't imagined it would arrive so soon. After Liu Yu's death, the remaining generals barely managed to make a splash, a testament to the King of Xia's tactics.

Since then, Tong Yao has been said in the world:

When Sheng Ji died, he cursed the corrupt scholar and let a wolf into the house without realizing it.

Liu Yu was blamed by scholars all over the world for studying too hard and not knowing how to borrow.

The destruction of Guo by false route is still fresh in my mind, and I also heard that the King of Xia borrowed Youzhou.

Lin Han ordered people to prepare a funeral for Liu Yu. There was nothing wrong with his kindness, but he was born in a troubled time and was compassionate to the world, so his death was not wrong either.

There is no need for saints in troubled times.

…

Mo Qi hurried into Yuyang Prefecture. He had been summoned from Baitan City and was on his way there without stopping. All the students from the Great Xia Artisan Department followed the army.

After all, the transformation of Youzhou was a major project, and he could sense the importance the king attached to it.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Mo Qi said.

"No need for formalities. We have asked students from Tai Academy to come here for an important matter." Lin Han called Mo Qi to his side and handed him a design drawing.

【Imperial Palace Construction Drawings】

This was the blueprint he got when he destroyed the Wuhuan, and it had been gathering dust in his backpack.

Now that we have invaded Youzhou, it is finally useful.

"I want to build an imperial city in Ji County, Guangyang." Lin Han made a big announcement.

Mo Qi was shocked and immediately looked at the map.

Building an imperial city in Youzhou means that in the future, Daxia will begin to settle in the Central Plains.

Good thing.

The northern desert has no strategic locations to defend. If the army is defeated, the imperial city will be under siege.

It was easier for them to destroy the Xianbei than to destroy Gongsun Du because they were in the desert, their towns were small, and there were no strategic locations to defend.

"Can it be built?" Lin Han asked.

"Absolutely." Mo Qi said.

"Okay, I'll leave the Imperial City to you. One more thing: build a pass east of Linyu. Modeled after Juyongguan, we'll create the world's most majestic pass, named 'Shanhaiguan,' nestled between the mountains and the sea."

"Yes." Mo Qi agreed seriously.

Looking at the location of the imperial city and the passes, one can tell that the king has great ambitions. He seems to be able to see the rising fortunes of Daxia.

Mo Qi took the order and left, and Zhou Cang went inside.

Zhou Cang was now Lin Han's sword-bearing guard under the title of "King Xia," commanding the imperial guards. The imperial guards' entry into Youzhou was sufficient evidence that the king intended to establish the capital within Youzhou.

"Yuanfu, starting today, we will use the Yellow Turban strongmen to train the Imperial Guard." Lin Han took out "The Imperial Guard" and handed it to Zhou Cang.

This Heaven-level special military technique, also a reward for defeating the Wuhuan, had been hidden in his possession for far too long and was finally ready to be used. Previously, the Imperial Guards had practiced the Yellow Turban Warriors, but now, they were also practicing the Imperial Guards, making them even more imposing.

Zhou Cang was overjoyed when he saw "The Emperor's Guard".

Just one set of exercises is enough to explain a lot of information.

The king is preparing to become emperor.

"yes."

Zhou Cang solemnly took over the "Emperor's Guard" and put it away as if it were a treasure.

Ma Yuanyi also came on this trip.

All the ministers of Daxia moved to Youzhou at once, and everyone was extremely happy.

No one objected to the relocation of the capital.

They were the people who had left Han territory because the Han emperor was incompetent and their rebellion failed, so they had to flee. Now they had a legitimate reason to return.

Liu Yu's old subordinates Qi Zhou and other counselors were talented, so Lin Han did not kill them.

Daxia lacks talents in internal affairs. Although Qi Zhou and others have some problems, they can be used temporarily.

Lin Han handed them over to Ma Yuanyi, Zhang Rao and others.

As one of the planners of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Ma Yuanyi held a high position in Daxia and presided over government affairs for many years. He dealt with Qi Zhou and others in an extremely simple manner.

They were given administrative power but not military power, and were used only as tools to handle government affairs.

Starting with Youzhou, Lin Han quickly brought in talents from Daxia and began to reform according to Daxia's model.

The north was completely stabilized, Daxia entered Youzhou, and obtained a good place to build the capital. As long as they were given enough time, they would be able to enter the Central Plains in one fell swoop.

After Lin Han assigned everyone's work, the officials of Daxia began to prepare for the capital.

At this time, the Jinyiwei who went to Qingzhou also returned. Based on the address provided by Taishi Ci's friend who was captured by Gongsun Du, the Jinyiwei successfully found Taishi Ci's home.

In the name of Taishi Ci, Lin Han "invited" Taishi Ci's mother to Youzhou, and arranged for her to stay in the mansion.

"Auntie, Ziyi went out for something the day before yesterday and asked me to take care of you first."

"Okay, okay." Taishi Ci's mother nodded with a smile, looked at Lin Han and said, "May I ask your name, warrior?"

"My name is Lin Han, you can call me A-Han."

"Okay, it's rare for Ziyi to have such a handsome friend like you. Thank you for your help."

"It's not a big deal, Auntie. You can just stay here and relax. Ziyi will come to see you the first thing he can do when he gets back from his work. I'll arrange for servants to take care of you. You can use them if you need anything."

"That's not allowed." Taishi Ci's mother said uncomfortably.

"It's okay. Ziyi entrusted me with this task, so I must take good care of Auntie." Lin Han said.

With the arrival of Taishi Ci's mother, Lin Han was no longer afraid that he would not surrender. If that didn't work, he would use his trump card.

The next day, Lin Han came again and accompanied Taishi Ci's mother out to enjoy the market in Yuyang City.

"Auntie, Gongsun Du was just defeated, and the King of Xia took control of Youzhou, leaving much to be rebuilt. Cattle, sheep, and grain from outside the desert have been brought into Youzhou, and the people are now living in relative peace." Lin Han explained, "Kong Rong was defeated, and Ziyi was captured by Gongsun Du. Fortunately, the King of Xia rescued him."

"I asked Ziyi to express his gratitude and repay Kong Rong. Lord Kong was kind, but I never thought that he would be attacked by Gongsun Du." Taishi Ci's mother sighed, also with lingering fear.
