Chapter 427 Luoyang discusses merits...
Her action of personally leading an expedition to Jizhou and completely destroying the Han Dynasty meant that the Queen of Dayong was in control of the world, and her trend was unstoppable.
This is true externally, and it should be even more so internally.
If there had been some gossip in private before, and some complaints about her promoting four female officials to the positions of Nine Ministers, they did not dare to say it openly because they were afraid that she had just ascended the throne and needed some fire to establish her authority. Now, with the war to recover Jizhou and Qingzhou being achieved in such a sweeping manner, they will dare not spread any rumors.
If you anger her again at this point, don't expect any forces that intend to restore the Han Dynasty to take advantage of the opportunity to rise again, or that the aristocratic families can unite to put some checks and balances on Qiao Yan.
If they really did this, they could consider whether to choose to join Yuan Shao and count the wheat together, or to be dragged into a life-and-death trial like the Hebei noble families.
The military power and the people's hearts are in Qiao Yan's hands. The only thing they can do is to adapt to the current situation instead of making any useless accusations against her.
In this way, the general environment in which female officials gradually ascended to the imperial court had gradually taken shape as the smoke of war settled.
If you really have the talent to be granted the title of marquis or king, why would you need to be shy about using your name? Just come on this stage and show your skills!
Perhaps we can train a group of female generals and female soldiers. Looking at the thirteen states in the world, only Yizhou and Liangzhou can meet this condition. However, among the civil servants, we can already produce a group of capable people.
Thinking of the three female officials selected from Hebei this time, Qiao Yan couldn't help but reveal a look of satisfaction on his face.
Zhen Mi no longer had to be tied to Yuan Xi first, and then became the beautiful woman who caused trouble between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi in the rumors of later generations.
Guo Zhao did not have to use her talents to fight for the position of heir for Cao Pi, nor did she have to bear the suspected crime of murdering Zhen Mi.
The third person was Xin Pi’s six-year-old daughter Xin Xianying, who was among Xin Pi’s family members who had been freed at this time.
Before Qiao Yan waited for the punishment of the Hebei family to be finalized, he met the child in Yecheng.
Xin Pi's sudden surrender to the enemy brought a lot of pressure to his family, but when Qiao Yan met Xin Xianying, the child had already persuaded his family to deal with things calmly by saying "Yuan Shao dare not act rashly, Yecheng will be in danger." Looking at this style, it really doesn't seem like something a child of this age can do.
He is worthy of the evaluation that "As for Xin Xianying, he realized that Wei's dynasty would not last long and knew that Cao Shuang would inevitably fail, so he made every possible plan and always spoke in accordance with the truth" and "he should be a first-rate figure." 1
Too bad, he's a little too young.
But now is the time for young girls like Qiao Lan, Qiao Ting, Ren Hong, Cai Zhaoji, and Huang Yueying to show their talents in the court, and these up-and-coming talents still have enough time to grow.
However, compared to the young Xin Xianying, the one who died more regrettably was probably another person.
The daughter of Kong Rong, whose house was about to be confiscated because of Kong Rong's arrest and who uttered the words "How can eggs under an overturned nest remain intact", was not born yet, and it is unknown whether she will have the chance to appear in the world.
When there was an incident in Qingzhou, Yecheng received an urgent letter asking for help from Yuan Tan, forcing Kong Rong to return in a hurry. Unfortunately, not long after arriving in Qingzhou, he lost his place to use his talents as Yuan Tan was defeated and Xin Ping was captured.
However, he had been operating in the Beihai area for several years and had many friends in Qingzhou, who took him in and gave him shelter during his escape.
It was just unfortunate that he met the old fox Jia Xu.
Therefore, when the various arrangements of the Hebei families were almost completed, Kong Rong was also escorted to Yecheng.
The Han Dynasty's ideas of "abolishing all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" and "governing the world with filial piety" were also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. This made it absolutely inappropriate for Kong Rong, a descendant of Confucius and the one who "gave up the pear", to be executed at this time. But it would be even more inappropriate to let him go lightly!
When Liu Bian launched an outcry against Qiao Yan with the manifesto written by Chen Lin and solicited support from all sides, Kong Rong could be said to be the first to respond to it again. He even gave some advice when Liu Bian intended to fight Qiao Yan.
If she let him go directly, her accusation that Liu Bian was a "traitor" would no longer stand up because of this differential treatment!
Therefore, Kong Rong must be punished, and the punishment must be extremely severe.
According to the five punishments inherited by Dayong, Qiao Yan finally decided to punish Kong Rong with thirty strokes of the cane and exile him to Yizhou. In name, this was -
The four surnames of Wu County in Yizhou had been isolated from the Central Plains for many years and had received little education on moral ethics. Since Kong Rong inherited the Kong family tradition, it should be his responsibility to educate the children of the four surnames. If there is more spare time, you might as well teach the natives of the island as well to demonstrate the tradition of "teaching without distinction".
As for his failure to distinguish right from wrong and his support for Liu Bian, he could learn from them and reflect on his stance together with the four surnames of Wujun.
Given the terrain and conditions of Yizhou, and the fact that there was the supervision of Gu Yong, the governor of Yizhou, the possibility of Kong Rong uniting with the four surnames of Wujun and even counterattacking Yangzhou was extremely slim.
However, in order to prevent the eloquent descendants of the Kong family from having the idea of restoring the Han Dynasty and really hitting it off with the prisoners on the island, Qiao Yan thought about it and chose someone to travel with Kong Rong.
This guy is actually an acquaintance to Qiao Yan.
When Qu Yi, who had made great contributions as the commander-in-chief and was the first to reach the camp, heard Qiao Yan's order, he inevitably paused for a moment.
This person is none other than Han Fu!
Back then, he took the position of General Du Liao by virtue of his status as a disciple of the Yuan family of Runan, and brought Qu Yi with him to the territory of Bingzhou, but was detained in prison because he did not cooperate with Yu Qiaoyan's actions.
Qu Yi completed the transformation of subordinates early, while Han Fu spent several years in prison before being sent back to Yecheng.
Yuan Shao spent a lot of time thinking about finalizing an official position for Han Fu. He even considered having Han Fu go to Liu Biao as a lobbyist to show that there was no benefit in cooperating with Qiao Yan. However, he eventually gave up the idea and instead found Han Fu an idle position in Yecheng that did not involve military power.
It can be said that this official position is a good choice for Han Fu. After all, with the psychological trauma of his experience in Bingzhou, Han Fu really doesn't want to lead troops.
But when Yecheng was surrounded on all sides by the troops of Dayong, he had no choice but to be forced to guard the city gates.
It was obviously impossible for him to stop Qiao Yan's subordinates with his ability. He was lucky not to lose his life in defending the city. But no matter whether he accepted it by default or stood firm, he had to be considered as a man on Yuan Shao's side. It was just right to assign him such a position as a punishment.
Why choose Han Fu? Because he didn't have the courage to join forces with Kong Rong to fight against Qiao Yan.
When Qu Yi decided to personally see his former boss off, he even felt that he saw some satisfaction with the appointment on Han Fu's face.
After all, according to Han Fu's understanding, if Kong Rong would not be secretly executed by Qiao Yan, he, who followed Qiao Yan to Yizhou, would certainly be safe. The only thing he needed to pay attention to was how to deal with things when he was overseas.
He understands this.
After experiencing this series of job changes, why would he go against Qiao Yan unless he had nothing better to do or felt that he had one more life than others?
If we were to ask who Han Fu envied the most at this moment, the person that would come first would be Cui Lie.
You are all famous scholars from Hebei Province, and you were all sent to Bingzhou to hold important positions. How come you, Cui Lie, are the only one who can enjoy your retirement while watching your son being promoted under Qiao Yan?
The difference in situations between people is too obvious.
The second place is probably Yuan Yao.
Earlier, when Cao Cao attacked Yuzhou and Yuan Shu died in the chaos, everyone felt that this was a devastating disaster for Yuan Yao, who relied entirely on his father's status to stand up straight.
However, first Qiao Yan personally rushed to Yingchuan to provide assistance, and then Yuan Yao suddenly took up the post of prefect of Nanyang. None of these were within everyone's expectations.
Whether he got this official position because of the power game between Qiao Yan and Wang Yun or because Qiao Yan wanted to station troops on the side to contain Liu Biao is not so important. After all, what allowed Yuan Yao to hold on to the position of Nanyang governor after Qiao Yan ascended the throne was probably not his talent in governing a county, but his wise and foolish positioning strategy.
At present, most of the Yuan family in Runan have been liquidated because they defected to Yuan Shao's army. Yuan Shao's current situation is the most miserable. On the contrary, Yuan Yao is still living an enviable peaceful life. It really makes people feel that fate is unpredictable.
Han Fu didn't expect to enjoy the same status as Yuan Yao and Cui Lie. He just wanted a peaceful life. It couldn't be considered an extravagant request, right?
Thinking of this, he made up his mind that he must strictly abide by Qiao Yan's rules together with Kong Rong. After completing the task of educating the children of the four surnames in Wujun, he would leave Yizhou and retire.
Anyway, compared with the Hebei families who had been arranged to grow winter food in the newly opened military settlements in Jizhou, and compared with Yuan Shao who didn't know how long such repetitive work would continue, his result was already satisfying from the comparison.
This also made him feel calm when he met Qu Yi again, rather than feeling resentful because his subordinates had made contributions and been promoted in the battle to pacify Yecheng.
Qu Yi brought Han Fu's performance and words to Qiao Yan.
Qiao Yan replied: "It's never too late to have the awareness to retreat from the current situation."
After all, Han Fu did not cause her any trouble, and he could even be considered to have provided her with a capable general. So after the Yizhou matter was settled, let Han Fu find a safe place to take up an idle position.
However, Han Fu was not the only one who had the idea of retreating at the right time among the people who changed their ownership in Yecheng.
And there is Yang Biao.
Before Liu Bian was executed, Yang Xiu's father Yang Biao had come to see her once.
Qiao Yan originally thought that Yang Biao wanted to plead for Liu Bian, to change his death sentence to a place of exile to keep him under guard, so that at least his life could be saved. However, she did not expect that Yang Biao came to ask her to retire and return home.
Judging from the fact that Cao Cao, Xu You, Xin Pi, Zhang He and others had all received new appointments under Qiao Yan, Qiao Yan actually did not mind re-employing people who had previously served in the Yecheng court. As long as they did not cause her irreparable trouble in the frontal battlefield and were indeed useful, she could successfully complete the transition of camps.
Yang Biao had long been out of use in Yecheng. Although he still held the title of one of the Three Dukes, he was almost like a hostage held here. If Dayong had not broken through the city gates in time, there was no guarantee that he would not be used by Yuan Shao as a bargaining chip. From this perspective, it would not be difficult for him to change from a Han citizen to a citizen of Dayong.
Not to mention the relationship with Yang Xiu.
But after some thought, Yang Biao decided to retire and return to his hometown, Hongnong to spend his remaining years in peace, or go to Leping Academy to be with Cai Yong and others.
It is not difficult to understand the reason why Yang Biao declined Qiao Yan's invitation to join the company in the name of the Chang'an court.
When he was in Luoyang, he was nearly implicated and killed because of the factions outside the Eight Passes who rose up to fight against Dong Zhuo. He was lucky to escape. At that time, Yang Xiu made a bet with him about who could enter Luoyang first. If Qiao Yan entered the city first, Yang Biao would have to allow Yang Xiu to go to Bingzhou to take up his post.
"Perhaps when I failed to surpass the child's vision, I should have made up my mind to quit the officialdom."
However, Yecheng at that time was in urgent need of three ministers to take charge, and the olive branch extended to Yang Biao was difficult to refuse. After all, the Yuan family of Runan and the Yang family of Hongnong were related by marriage, so it was difficult for Yang Biao to refuse Yuan Shao's "good intentions".
But judging from the situation today, the decision he made back then was indeed a wrong one, and it almost brought disaster to the Hongnong Yang family.
Fortunately, Yang Xiu was not only completely influenced by him when he grew up, but also followed in Qiao Yan's footsteps because of the debate in Dingzhongguan, which helped him develop a rational mind in political views, and also allowed this family that was about to be overthrown to stop at the brink of collapse.
Yang Biao added that even if he ignored this kind of recognition of his own abilities, he was not suitable to go to Chang'an to take up the post.
Even if he didn't say it, Qiao Yan himself understood the reason.
Qiao Yan's suppression of the aristocratic families seems to be like giving someone a sweet reward after they have been beaten. From the current situation, it seems that she wants to let the children of the aristocratic families and the talents cultivated by her cultural popularization compete in the same environment.
But no matter how Yang Biao looked at it, he felt that it was precisely because of this most obvious move that people overlooked her move to make another set of changes in the court.
She was simultaneously weakening the power held by the Three Dukes, Nine Ministers and the Secretariat!
Taiwei Huangfu Song had almost no actual military power, and the Weiwei and Guanglu Xun both obeyed Yu Qiaoyan's command directly.
The Ministry of Imperial Clan Affairs, the Ministry of Agriculture, and the Ministry of the Imperial Household under the command of Sikong Huang Wan were led by Qiao Lan, Qin Yu, and Cai Zhaoji respectively. They had been almost sidelined, but they still bore the title of the Three Dukes in name only.
Cheng Yu's position as Si Tu was much more powerful than Wang Yun, who had originally held the position. But in the final analysis, this was not because the position gave him such a status, but because he had served Qiao Yan for many years without any second thoughts.
The Nine Ministers seemed to have not changed much, but the official inheritance of the Hongnong Yang family made it easy for Yang Biao to wonder whether Qiao Yan separated part of the powers of the Shaofu and established the particularly special Ministry of Works in order to make it more convincing for Cai Zhaoji to take over the position of one of the Nine Ministers at this age, or did she have the idea of making some changes to the official system?
It is very likely the latter.
Not to mention the Shangshu Tai. Up to now, no one has sat on the position of Shangshu Ling.
There's nothing wrong with that.
Even during the short ten years that Wang Mang usurped power, he made some adjustments to the official system. He even named the Shaofu Gonggong, the Da Si Nong Xihe, and even included the Shuiheng Duwei among the Nine Ministers under the name "Yu Yu".
Since Qiao Yan had established the Great Yong court, it was a normal act for an emperor to make changes to the official system.
She is capable enough and hopes to make the division of labor among all parties more clear. Also, because of her gender, she needs to ensure that the imperial power is firmly above the prime minister's power in this reshuffle. All of these are understandable.
But precisely because of the waves that this change might cause, Yang Biao decided that he should withdraw from the political stage and let Yang Xiu, who had never taken the wrong position, join the stage, so as to better ensure the interests of the Hongnong Yang family.
Although this change will most likely not begin in the first three or two years when the world is settled, he can still have less worries if he exits the vortex early.
Qiao Yan looked at the consequences of his anxiety over the past few years and found it hard not to feel that this statement was extremely credible.
I don’t know if Hua Tuo and Zhang Ji, after thoroughly studying the diseases introduced from outside the country and the typhoid fever in the Central Plains, can consider a hair care prescription so that she can look younger in the court.
But thinking about what she had told Cao Cao about the Funan warships sailing a few days ago, she couldn't help but feel that it would be better to let these two doctors focus on the diseases caused by the sea, and the rest...
Is it possible that such a large Chiyang Medical College cannot produce a few more high-end medical talents?
It would be too rude to tell anyone about that!
While she was thinking about these somewhat vague things, she ordered her people to pack up all the books, treasuries, and files stored in the court in Yecheng and load them onto the trucks. Although everyone in the world can see clearly how powerful the Yecheng court is in the past few years, there is no guarantee that some unconventional knowledge can serve as reference information for them.
The grain carts that were originally used to transport grain from Guanzhong to Luoyang were put to use again at this time.
During this period, Xu Shu also received an order from Qiao Yan, and came to Yecheng after Cao Ang rushed to Hanzhong. As a result, the handover was carried out in a more stable manner.
"Before you came, I had someone do something first," Qiao Yan gestured for Xu Shu to take a seat, and said, "I ordered all counties to read out our response to the manifesto."
Of course, to be precise, it was not Ni Heng’s vicious attack on Yuan Shao’s forces, but Wang Can’s answer to the question of the old farmer in Jizhou.
Because of Yuan Shao's deliberate restrictions, it was quite difficult for this response to flow into Jizhou on a large scale, especially in some relatively remote areas. It was even more difficult to clearly understand the status of the game between the two dynasties.
And when Wang Can's manifesto is passed on in such an easy-to-understand way, because it also contains interactive stories, it may be further spread through word of mouth.
The people of Jizhou may have heard about the situation in other states before, or they may not have, but they must be worried about such a change of dynasty, but...
"First, the Hebei noble family was punished in this way to appease the people's grievances, and then there was this response to the question of the old farmer in Jizhou, which let the people of Jizhou know that Your Majesty cares about them. As long as the person who takes over Jizhou can stabilize the chaos as soon as possible and make all parties move in a calm and orderly manner, then for them, who is sitting on the throne and whether the country is named Han or Yong are not things they should consider." Xu Shu had keenly heard the subtext of Qiao Yan's actions and immediately replied.
"But this doesn't mean your task will be any easier." Qiao Yan said solemnly, "It seems that the shortcomings of Jizhou can be made up in a few years, but once a disaster year comes, your pressure will be much greater than that of any other governor. I will not lower my requirements for you just because you are a new governor."
"Ji and Qing states were the last to return to the rule of Dayong. If a disaster really happened, it might even be easier to stir up a turmoil because the power of the aristocratic families here has been weakened. If something goes wrong—"
Xu Shu replied firmly: "Then I will bring my head to you!"
It must be said that Xu Shu was taught by Cheng Yu after all, and there are indeed some of the other's shadow in his style. Now that one of them is in the court and the other in the prefecture, Qiao Yan has saved a lot of worries.
She said to Xu Shu: "I feel relieved with your promise."
After she had decided to transfer Zhuge Liang from Youzhou to Jizhou, she should be able to provide another layer of protection.
What's more, the situations of Jizhou and Qingzhou are completely a whole. Once there is a change in Jizhou, Qingzhou will hardly be spared.
Given Jia Xu's comprehensive and experienced personality, he probably would not turn a blind eye to the shortcomings of his neighbor Xu Shu.
However, Qiao Yan thought about it and decided to add another layer of protection.
In order to inspire Wang Yun and others to take action against her, she had once let Li Ru show up in front of Qi Zhou, and then transferred Li Ru back to Bingzhou at a specific time.
He can be considered as being in a state of "old but strong". Think about it, right now the court is short of people both inside and outside the court, and it is not appropriate for him to be unemployed in Bingzhou, right?
If he didn't want to be tied down by an official position, it would be nice for him to be an advisor in the Jizhou governor's office.
It is unknown what Li Ru, who is far away in Bingzhou, would think if he received this commission from Qiao Yan. Anyway, for Xu Shu, it is always a good thing to have an extra useful helper in rebuilding the order of Jizhou.
In this way, if Qu Yi and Le Jin are left to garrison in Jizhou, it will be fine if there is a local armed conflict.
Qiao Yan could also set off with peace of mind!
"Your Majesty means that I don't have to go back to Youzhou directly?" Lu Lingju, who happened to meet Qiao Yan, was stunned when he heard the news.
This time is not like the beginning of this year, and there is no opportunity for her to fight alongside Qiao Yan.
Logically speaking, since the Yecheng court no longer existed, she should return to Liaodong as soon as possible and take back the power to supervise the Wuhuan people from Yan Rou, in order to prevent the Dayong troops from failing to deter the border and causing the Wuhuan people to have some inappropriate ideas again.
By telling Gongsun Du the news of the unification of the world through the mouth of her, the Lieutenant General who protected the Wuhuan, she could completely dispel some of his thoughts. In a sense, she was also relying on this news to improve her relationship with her colleagues.
"It makes no difference whether you tell this news or someone else. Or do you think that your performance in Liaodong is not enough to let Gongsun Du see the capabilities of our Dayong troops?" Qiao Yan smiled and teased.
Gongsun Du's expansionist ambitions were based on the fact that the Han Dynasty was in disarray and in the midst of war and chaos. However, what Qiao Yan and his advisers and generals are showing now is a clear attitude of killing even the most distant enemies.
How could he have the courage to do such a thing after Yuan Shao had already met such an end and Liu Bian had been killed without mercy?
Of course he doesn’t dare!
Not to mention that Gongsun Du did not dare. Since the news of Ji Qing's surrender had been delivered to Xu Shu in Hanzhong, it had naturally been delivered to Wu Yi, the governor of Yizhou, and Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou. They all broke out in cold sweats because of the speed of the battle.
Wu Yi originally thought that Qiao Yan promoted him to the position of Governor of Yizhou, which meant that he needed to rely on the power of the Dongzhou scholars to some extent. Zhao Ang, the prefect of Zangke County, also needed him to act as a go-between in order to pacify the southern barbarian forces.
But with Meng Huo and other forces turning against him, Jiaozhou surrendering to Qiao Yan, and now the ambition of unifying the world has come to a successful conclusion. If he still has such rebellious thoughts, he is seeking death!
Liu Biao had gradually gotten used to the shocks given by Qiao Yan, and he knew that it was a miracle that he could still be the governor of a state despite his status as a member of the Han royal family.
When the news of the complete demise of the remaining forces of the Han Dynasty reached Jingzhou, he and Cai Mao looked at each other and both saw a sense of relief for surviving the disaster.
Gongsun Du was of course no exception.
Even before this conversation between Qiao Yan and Lu Lingju, he had already taken the initiative to cut off all contact with Buyeo and Goguryeo to prevent Qiao Yan from mistaking him for any disloyal behavior.
The auspicious stone, which was similar in shape to the crown stone of Emperor Xuan of Han, had already been destroyed by Gongsun Du.
Even if Qiao Yan didn't see this scene with his own eyes, he could guess his performance.
So she added to Lu Lingju, "My expectation of you is not to restrain Gongsun Du. He is not qualified to be your long-term opponent."
"Come with me to see a grand performance first."
Grand event?
A look of surprise flashed across Lu Lingju's face.
But she suddenly realized that there should be a grand event!
Even though their actions of conquering Ye City and recovering Jizhou and Qingzhou seemed to be just the Yong Dynasty showing its sharp claws to the outside world in the face of Yuan Shao's futile resistance, in fact, no one should ignore that this was truly a pacification of the world!
Since the two dynasties of "Han in the East and Han in the West" coexisted seven and a half years ago, since the Qiang people brought disaster to Liangzhou a hundred years ago, since Tan Shihuai challenged the Danhan Mountain and repeatedly invaded the south during the reign of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, since Yizhou became independent under the control of Liu Yan, and since Jiaozhou was ruled by local tyrants and far away from the interference of the Central Plains regime, until now -
One place after another has returned to the rule of the emperor, submitting to their Majesty of Dayong and becoming an indispensable part of Dayong's territory.
Of course they have to hold a grand event to celebrate the unification of the world!
Sure enough, she heard Qiao Yan say the next moment: "The coronation ceremony started suddenly, and many of my subordinates who have followed me for many years were unable to come. Now that I have conquered the court of Yecheng in one battle, I should reward the civil officials and military generals according to their merits. It is a good opportunity to hold this award ceremony more grandly, which can make up for the regret in March this year."
"In order to allow all forces to arrive this time, let's set it on October 1st."
"Do you have any other questions?"
There are indeed a few problems.
Of course, this is not about rewarding people based on their merits.
Lu Lingju was very clear that his promotion to the rank of General of the Wuhuan Guard, which he had received for capturing Beiping County, was already an exceptional promotion, and it was probably impossible for him to receive additional rewards for the subsequent attack to the south.
Considering her age, it wouldn't hurt for her to stay in this position for two more years to gain some experience. After all, she can still compete with Buyeo and Goguryeo in Liaodong for military merits, so there is no need to rush.
Besides, how could they, the subordinates who have followed Her Majesty for so many years, not know what kind of person Her Majesty is?
In this reward-giving ceremony, His Majesty will surely reward her with something else.
If I ask now, I won’t feel like I’ve received a surprise.
She wouldn't do such a stupid thing.
Rather than caring about this, Lu Lingju wanted to ask other questions, such as where would the prince settle her father, who felt uncomfortable because of having nothing to do, after the war to recover the world. It would be terrible if he became too relaxed and even started to consider finding a son-in-law for his daughter.
For example, since this celebration represents the unification of the world, should there be some kind of souvenir so that she can get something that no one else has? When the next few batches of students from Leping Academy graduate, this thing will become a symbol to distinguish her from those who come after her!
However, when in front of someone you admire, you should still restrain your actions a little.
General Lu rubbed his sweaty hands on the back of his clothes, and the last words he said were: "Where does Your Majesty plan to hold this ceremony?"
Qiao Yan had a hunch that this might not be the question that Lu Lingju originally wanted to ask.
But she gave the answer without hesitation: "Luoyang."
Her position as Marquis of Leping was irreversible, and her reputation began to spread among the literati, starting from Luoyang. So today's warning to the world to regain unity was held here, which could also be considered a complete story.
If we need to give another reason, it would be much easier for the generals participating in this battle to arrive in Luoyang and then disperse than to go to Chang'an.
It will be decided in Luoyang!
