Chapter 239 You are my lord
When the officials heard his scream, they all figured it out. Gai Xun must have seen that there was no way to stop Li Qin from occupying Sizhou, and Luoyang was too busy to take care of himself. As the guardian of Chang'an, Gai Xun could not defend Chang'an, if he could not defend Chang'an, he would have to die. If he escaped, he would definitely not be able to escape, so he still had to die. If he resisted, it would be impossible to succeed, so he was dead; and if he could not die, then the only way out was to surrender to Li Qin.
Until now, Li Qin is still a Han minister. Although he brought a large army to Sizhou to grab territory, everyone knows this. However, no matter what, Li Qin did not raise the anti-bank and did not rebel, so he is still Han minister. Gai Xun went to surrender to him. Everyone knows that it was surrender, but it can be understood on the surface as welcoming. Anyway, people are both sparse, so what is right to say!
In this way, whoever is the first to welcome Li Qin will naturally have the most benefits. No matter what Li Qin does, he has to give some face, at least he has to be a good example, give a larger official or a former position, but he must not be demoted to avoid the coldness of the person who comes to surrender. If he dealt with all the person who comes to surrender, who can surrender again!
An official shouted: "No wonder Gai Xun pretended to be detached. After a long time of work, he had already decided to flatter Li Qin!"
An official stamped his feet and sighed, "He is so cunning that he was the first to flatter him. What about us? Zhang Wen escaped, Gai Xun went to flatter him. What about us? Should we escape or also go flatter him?"
The officials present were stunned. They were just cursing Gai Xun. They knew what Gai Xun did, so what should they do? We have to decide now!
Those who stay and do not escape cannot escape. They have families and families. Some people are even the leader of the clan. They have lived in Chang'an for hundreds of years, and some have been for hundreds of years. It is too difficult for people like them to escape.
An official shouted: "After this matter, thousands of people in my tribe cannot end up losing their fate. Then Li Qin... Then Li Lang is said to have always been righteous. If we surrender to him, the big soldiers under his command would be embarrassed to go to our place to copy things? If you want to tell me, since you can't escape, you might as well just obey!"
The officials looked at me, and I looked at you, and suddenly they shouted: "We only follow the leader of the Grandpa. What is he doing? Let's follow him. What are you worried about?"
Everyone rushed out, ran out of the yamen, out of Chang'an, and hurried to greet Li Qin.
Twenty miles away from the city. Chang'an is prosperous and has not been through war for a long time. Not only is the city densely populated, but it is also the case outside the city. The villages are adjacent to each other, and even twenty miles away from Chang'an City, it is quite prosperous.
Li Qin brought the army to a village. At this time, the scout sent back and told Li Qin that Jia Xu's army had also arrived and was rushing here. He asked Li Qin where to meet, whether he was under the city or looking for another place?
Li Qin thought about it and thought it would be better not to meet at the city. Although the two armies will be very powerful in terms of momentum, there will inevitably be some troubles when they meet at the city. In addition, both armies carry luggage, which is difficult to resettle. If the officials in the city have some unrealistic ideas, they will take this opportunity to attack. Even if the Fujiao Army cannot do anything, it will be annoying enough. If you are a newcomer, the less trouble the better.
Li Qin told the scout that if Jia Xu led his troops here to join the camp, it would be enough to camp here. There was a village here, which was equivalent to a ready-made military camp. The distance from the city was just right, which was very suitable for intimidation of Chang'an. After sending the scout away, Li Qin ordered people to enter the village. Tens of thousands of Fujiao soldiers were camping. One village was not enough. In addition to Jia Xu's army, it was estimated that villages within a radius of ten miles would have to be requisitioned.
He took the army outside the village and asked the soldiers to enter the village to notify the local people that if they were willing to give up their residence, the army would pay a certain fee to compensate the people when they left, and would not live in their house in vain.
Waiting for the soldiers to repay, they saw several people running up the road in the distance, with a full body of official uniform, and the costume was Jingzhao Yin!
Li Qin was shocked. Isn’t Jingzhao Yin Gai Xun? What are he doing? At this time, he should be defending the city. When his troops were at the city, he cursed himself on the city wall, in the name of a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty. But why did he suddenly come now?
Without asking, Li Qin could also know that Gai Xunfeng came over quickly, and he was definitely not here to scold him. Civil officials were famous. If Gai Xun wanted to scold him, he would definitely be on the city wall, listing his various "illegal behaviors" in front of thousands of military and civilians, and then he was honored to be executed, winning the reputation behind him, and loyalty shining in history. But now he came, it only means one problem. This important minister of the Han Dynasty was heavy enough, but loyalty was not very loyal. This was surrendering to him!
Li Qin was quite embarrassed. Although he was used to seeing Han officials surrender, such as those in Liangzhou, he really didn't expect that such a large official as Jingzhao Yin came to surrender. This was like using Chang'an as a gift for surrender. And he hadn't done anything to him yet, at least he had to do something. Then everyone talked about the conditions and came to surrender directly, which made me a little impatient.
Li Qin got off the horse, and his personal soldiers brought him a marching horse stool. Li Qin sat on the horse stool, waiting for Gai Xun to arrive. He wanted to see what the Jingzhao Yin of Chang'an would say when surrendering to him and what methods would he use to impress himself in order to preserve his glory and wealth.
Gai Xun arranged the officials in Chang'an yesterday. After the banquet ended, he returned to Houya. He first asked the servant to bring a bowl. He used his fingers to pick his throat. He first vented his throat and vomited out all the wine in his stomach. Then he poured a few bowls of sobering soup, put his clothes on the bed for a while, and after recovering his energy, he got up and washed up, took a few confidants, left Houya, and rushed to the city gate.
In the middle of the night, only he could open the Chang'an city gate and leave the city smoothly. He went west and waited ten miles away from the city. He didn't know the specific direction of Li Qin's arrival, so he could only wait like this and sent his confidant to investigate. After dawn, when he knew the direction and distance of Li Qin's arrival, he immediately ran!
When Fujiao Bing saw Gai Xun, he immediately stepped forward to investigate, but did not search. This was Li Qin's special order. No matter who wants to see him, he cannot search. On the one hand, it shows trust in the seeker, and on the other hand, no one can really assassinate him, so there is no need to do anything extra.
Gai Xun came to the entrance of the village and turned over and dismounted. He saw a group of generals in sharp armor surrounding a young man. The young man was sitting on a marching stool and looking at him with a smile. He guessed that this man should be Li Qin, who looked not arrogant at all and had a very approachable appearance.
Gai Xun is not young anymore, but the older he is, the more he is, the more he is. He shouted: "Chief, Immoto Yoon Gai Xun, please see Li Lang!" He said, but his feet did not move, and he did not bow, and he did not bow.
Li Qin immediately stood up and smiled and said, "It turns out that it is Lord Gai. Although Qin is far away in Liangzhou and a wilderness, he is well-known to Lord Gai!" As he said that, he bowed to Gai Xun and bent down slightly, which was considered a greeting.
Although Gai Xun talked about the ceremony first, it was actually Li Qin's hand that first urged him. In this way, he had a little advantage at the beginning of the meeting, but his advantage was not to increase his value. It would cause Li Qin to be disgusted. When Li Qin disliked him, wouldn't he have nothing left!
Gai Xun's tears came as soon as he said, his eyes turned red immediately. He raised his hands high above his head, hugged him into a fist, and bowed to the ground until Li Qin helped him. He straightened his waist until Li Qin helped him. When he met Li Qin again, his tears were flowing all over his cheeks. He choked and said, "Li Lang, Li Lang, if you come a few days later, I really can't hold on!"
Li Qin knew he was acting, but Gai Xun said so, so he could only ask down the question. He said, "Sir, how can you see it? What's the difficulty for you?"
Gai Xun sighed and looked around. It seemed that he was looking for a place to sit. Li Qin quickly ordered someone to bring another stool and let Gai Xun sit down. When Gai Xun sat down, he actually held Li Qin's hand and refused to let go, looking like he was seeing his relatives.
After the two sat down, Gai Xun said: "This matter is a long story, and it will start with hundreds of years ago..."
Li Qin grinned, and the generals who were holding the corner beside him all opened their mouths. What a good guy, he got it out hundreds of years ago. Are you going to say that tomorrow morning will not be possible?
Gai Xun said: "Li Lang, hundreds of years ago, my ancestors were a small school, following the flying generals, fighting south and north..."
Li Qin thought to himself: "Okay, he has a skill in this relationship. He can do whatever he wants. He can't find any evidence to refute it. There is no written record of what happened hundreds of years ago. Isn't it just that he said it just by opening his mouth? But after he said this, it's impossible for me to touch him anymore. He doesn't have to do anything and can continue to enjoy wealth and glory! To be an official, there is no need to say anything. This is also a state of mind!"
The generals of Fujiao were blue when they heard it, and they all felt enlightened. Gai Xun was amazing. No wonder he could be a high-ranking official like Jingzhao Yin. His skills in dealing with things are really not Kui. Others are always in the present, so He Jin is only in this generation, but Gai Xun is so powerful. With just one irrelevant word, the Li Gai family will become a family friend!
Gai Xun continued to speak vernacularly, saying, "After the accident of General Fei, my ancestors were unhappy with what some people in the court did, so they were angry and abandoned their official duties and went home to farm. Later, the tribe members went to Luoyang, and my group returned to the officialdom. However, each generation of tribe leaders left a will, so we must find the descendants of General Fei. My tribe must assist General Fei as they did in the past!"
After saying that, he stared at Li Qin with his eyes wide open. Suddenly he jumped up from the stool, knelt down for Li Qin, and shouted: "Lord, I finally found you. I can finally give some explanations like the ancestors of the Gai family!" He hugged Li Qin's thighs and cried loudly!
