Although Dong Zhuo is now in charge of the government and has gone against the grain, which has made people very angry, Luoyang City is the political center of the Han Dynasty.
There are not too many royal nobles, wealthy families, officials and wealthy businessmen here.
After nightfall, the streets are still busy with traffic. .
An ordinary carriage stopped at the door of Huangfu's house.
The driver took a famous assassin from the carriage, jumped out of the carriage and walked to the door.
He cupped his hands with one of the soldiers standing guard at the door.
After saying a few words, he handed the famous assassin over. , the soldier took the famous assassin and immediately turned around and entered the mansion.
Soon, a man who looked like a butler walked out quickly from the gate and followed the coachman to the carriage.
The butler saluted the carriage and said, "General, my master is here to invite you."
A man in a cloak emerged from the carriage and walked into the Huangfu Mansion accompanied by the butler.
When he was about to reach the eaves of the front hall, the man wearing a hood saw a tall figure with white hair and a solemn face standing under the eaves.
This was Huangfu Song, and there were several people standing beside him.
The man in the cloak immediately took off the cap of the cloak, revealing a young, calm, resolute and mighty face.
A servant next to him whispered to Huangfu Song: "Master, this is the Marquis of Anyi, General You, and General Liu Cheng who oversees the country."
Huangfusong immediately walked down the steps, clasping his fists and laughing: "The Lord Supervisor has come to my humble abode, which will make the humble abode shine.
I am sorry to welcome you from afar."
Liu Cheng took a few steps forward, stopped and clasped his fists and said: "Liu Cheng, the younger generation, has met the old general.
If the old general is polite, just call me An Ran."
Huangfu Song stopped being polite and stretched his hand towards the room: "Okay, An Ran, please come in and serve tea."
"Old General, please come first."
The two walked into the house, where they sat down on their knees as guest and host.
The maid brought tea to them.
After drinking a few sips of tea, Liu Cheng asked: "During the day, I heard someone say that I saw the old general returning home on the street, so I hurried to see the old general after dinner, hoping not to disturb the old general's rest."
Huangfu Song waved his hand and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
In fact, I have heard An Ran's name not once or twice in Guanzhong.
An Ran's rescue, escort, and fight against Dong Zhuo are all thrilling events.
I have long wanted to see him.
I’ve met you.
My nephews and staff also really want to meet you.
By the way, I’d like to introduce you to you.
This is Liang Yan, my staff chief.”
Liang Yan stood up and bowed to Liu Cheng: "I have met the Marquis."
Liu Cheng replied: "You're welcome, sir."
Huangfu Song introduced another young man and said, "This is my nephew Li."
Huangfu Li was a scholar in his late thirties.
He stood up and bowed to Liu Cheng, saying: "Huangfu Li pays homage to the Marquis."
"Brother Li, you're welcome.
You are older than me, so I should call you brother."
"This is Songzi Jianshou" Huangfu Jianshou was forty years younger, tall and thin, and he was exactly the same as Huangfu Song.
Although Dong Zhuo had always had a bad relationship with Huangfu Song and hated Huangfu Song deeply, he still had a close relationship with Huangfu Song's son Huangfu Jian.
Shou has a very good relationship.
"Meet the Marquis" "Brother, you're welcome" Huangfu Song smiled, took a sip and asked: "I heard that An Ran came in a carriage alone, without any entourage, and wrapped himself tightly in a cloak.
Why is this?"
Liu Cheng sighed: "My nephew, there is nothing he can do about it.
Dong Zhuo's eyes and ears are all over the court and the public, and any troubles among the courtiers cannot escape his ears and eyes.

The Queen Mother secretly ordered the old general to take the imperial edict and return to the capital to take up the post of Taiwei.
Dong Zhuo didn't know Love, now a veteran The army did not cover up and returned to the capital in a fair and just manner.
It would be difficult to hide it from Dong Zhuo's eyes and ears, and it would definitely attract Dong Zhuo's attention.
If Dong Zhuo learns about my nephew's coming to see the old general tonight, I am afraid it will cause trouble to the old general.
The nephew is like this It’s just a helpless move.”
Huangfu Song was an upright man.
He patted the case and said angrily: "When I was in Guanzhong, I heard how domineering Dong Zhuo was after he came to Beijing.
I didn't expect him to be so arrogant.
It's really disgusting.
If I had known this, I should have listened to Li'er's words and raised an army to attack him." , wipe him out in Guanzhong, and many of the things that happened later will not happen."
Liu Cheng persuaded: "Old general, don't worry about it.
The matter has passed.
Any further entanglement in the past will only increase your troubles.
The key is to look at the present and the future.
Today, my nephew came here, firstly to pay a visit to the old general; secondly, to give the general Talk about the current situation between North Korea and China” Huangfu Song stretched out his hand: "An Ran, please tell me, I happen to be unclear about the current situation in the court."
Liu Cheng immediately talked non-stop, detailing the actions of the government and the opposition to Huangfu Song and everyone present, and finally sighed: "This is roughly the situation.
In fact, my nephew came to visit the old general today, and there is one more thing I want to explain to the old general.
The whole story, the one who asked for forgiveness from the old general, was actually that the old general was recruited back to Beijing to take up the post of Taiwei.
It was my nephew who suggested to the Queen Mother that Xu Rong should replace the general and lead the troops to guard Guanzhong.
At that time, the nephew was very hesitant and scrupulous about this suggestion to the Queen Mother.
After all, the old general was commanding the troops outside, but the nephew suggested to the Queen Mother that the general should be transferred to Guanzhong.
Let Xu Rong replace the general.
It seems that he wants to seize the old general's military power.
In fact, the nephew has no intention of doing so.
There is a way.
Dong Zhuo was too rampant and cruel.
He killed people at every turn in the court.
The three officials, nine ministers and other officials in the government were frightened by his cruelty.
Except for his nephew and Wei Wei Zhang Except for Wen, Zhu Jun and others who dare to challenge him, no one else dares to disobey his ideas.
Not only does my nephew have to bear the burden of his majesty and the emperor.
The safety of the people in the room, lest Dong Zhuo hurt them, and also to prevent Dong Zhuo from launching a rebellion to change the dynasty, was too stressful.
The nephew was worried that he could not handle Dong Zhuo alone, so he had to ask the Queen Mother to order the old general to be transferred back to help the nephew share some of the pressure. , I didn’t expect that the Queen Mother met with misfortune the night after the secret edict was sent out.”
Huangfu Li asked: "Master Marquis, was the cause of the death of the Queen Mother a natural fire or someone deliberately setting the fire?"
Liu Cheng said coldly: "The fire prevention measures in the palace have always been very strict.
How could a fire break out for no reason?
Someone must have set the fire deliberately.
After the incident, my general immediately sent people to investigate, but he was resisted by Dong Zhuo at the court meeting the next day. and opposition, the investigation was blocked at every turn, and there has been no progress.
For several days in a row, the investigation was Many eunuchs in the North Palace disappeared one after another or were silenced.
Although most of the guards in the palace were from the general, Dong Zhuo also had some troops on duty in the palace.
It was not difficult for him to do this, and everyone in the government and the public knew it.
Dong Zhuo sent people to do it, but no evidence can be found, so there is nothing we can do."
Huangfu Li couldn't help but cursed: "This thief" Huangfu Song said to Liu Cheng: "An Ran need not worry about the fact that the imperial edict transferred me back.
I have never been dissatisfied with An Ran in my heart.
As a general of the imperial court, I should obey the imperial edict.
If a general cannot obey the imperial court's order, It will definitely cause chaos in the world.

I am not such a person and cannot be such a person."
Liu Cheng immediately clasped his fists and said: "The old general's magnanimity and loyalty make An Ran admire him.
If all the civil and military officials in the dynasty were like the old general, how could there be so many troubles in the world?"
Liu Cheng chatted with Huangfu Song and others about the current situation of the imperial court and the world situation for more than an hour.
He did not come out from Huangfu Song's house until there were few pedestrians on the street.
When he returned to the general's mansion, a guard took out a bamboo pipe and handed it to him and said: "General, someone asked me to give this to you."
Liu Cheng took it and saw that it was just sent by someone from the Film and Security Department in charge of Wang Yue.
He went to the inner hall and sat down.
He took a sip of tea and took off the cap of the bamboo tube.
He took out a small roll of paper with the top I wrote a vertical line of words at the bottom.
After reading the note, Liu Cheng frowned and shouted to the outside: "Here comes someone" Wang Shuang walked in and clasped his fists and said, "General, what are your orders?"
Liu Cheng thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow morning, you will send someone to the Northern Army camp outside the city to find Zhongji and ask him to come to the general's mansion to meet me."
"promise" In order to ease the situation, Liu Cheng and Dong Zhuo reached an agreement during the negotiations, that is, both sides withdrew their troops and stationed outside the city.
After Emperor Liu Bian retreated to the Beigong, the Huben Army and the Yulin Army each left half of their troops.
The horses guard the palace, and the other half of the troops are also mobilized to the city.
In addition, Nangong left some eunuchs to be responsible for daily cleaning.
Dong Zhuo stationed more than a thousand people in the original Yulin military barracks to assist the Jinwu Yamen in Beijing to manage patrols and security in the city.
Therefore, this period was the first time that soldiers were stationed in Luoyang City in recent years.
The one with the fewest horses.
Early the next morning, after Liu Cheng had finished practicing and had just finished breakfast, Zhong Ji rushed over.
The guards in front of the door took him to the front hall.
When Liu Cheng came over, he immediately saluted him: "I pay my respects to the general in this humble position."
Liu Cheng pointed to the left: "Sit down and say, have you had breakfast?"
"Thank you, General.
I've already served my humble duty in the camp," Zhong Ji said after kneeling down.
Liu Cheng nodded and asked: "How is the training of the soldiers going recently?"
Zhong Ji Baoquan said: "I have been practicing according to the plan made by the general.
Just now, the soldiers didn't like it very much.
As I practiced, I got used to it.
Now we are on the right track.
The soldiers have made rapid progress and have completed the training plan.
But this month, the reorganization of the Shesheng School Lieutenant Department into the army has had some impact on the drill plan.
However, the lower ranks are trying their best to coordinate in order to allow the soldiers of the Shesheng School Lieutenant Department to adapt to the new training as soon as possible.
Exercise planning and integration into the entire Northern Army system."
Since the agreement with Dong Zhuo, the situation within the imperial court gradually eased, and Liu Cheng began to integrate the soldiers and horses of the Shesheng Xiaowei Department into the new organization.
After the soldiers and horses of the Shesheng Xiaowei Department were integrated into the Northern Army, A quarter of the troops and horses were assigned to Yang Ru, who was still called Shesheng Xiaowei.
However, the soldiers and horses of Changshui Xiaowei did not move.
This was a light cavalry team composed of northern barbarians, with a strength of There are more than 6,000 people, led by Du Kai, the captain of Changshui.
Now among the five battalions of the Northern Army, the Tun Cavalry School Lieutenant Division is led by Chen Dao.
More than 6,000 cavalrymen are all heavy armored cavalry.
Through Liu Cheng's efforts, all the equipment of these 6,000 cavalrymen has been updated, turning it into a cavalry force.
Heavy armored cavalry in the true sense; the Changshui School Command is light cavalry; and the Yue Cavalry School Command, Infantry School Command and Shesheng School Command are mixed into three battalions, all composed of infantry, archers and The mixed formation of cavalry has a much stronger combat effectiveness than three battalions of a single unit
