Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

We should follow the will of Heaven and accept this clear command.

Dong Zhuo caused chaos in Luoyang, causing the Han capital to move westward.

Thanks to the blessings of our ancestors and the bravery of our uncle, the emperor killed Dong Zhuo in Chang'an.

Luoyang has been the capital for 200 years. If peace comes to the world, I will return the capital to Luoyang.

……

……

An imperial edict spread throughout the Han Dynasty.

Not many people were surprised by this edict.

The capital of the Han Dynasty was originally in Luoyang City, and moving to Chang'an was only due to the coercion of Dong Zhuo.

Now that Dong Zhuo has been killed, it is reasonable for the emperor to return to Luoyang under the escort of Uncle Liu.

The people of Chang'an who were the first to receive the news were boiling with excitement. During the Dong Zhuo Luoyang Rebellion, there were millions of people brought from Luoyang to Chang'an. Although they gradually gained a foothold in Chang'an, most of them still wanted to return to their original capital, Luoyang.

Some people from Chang'an went to Liu Yu's residence to ask for permission to follow the army back to Luoyang.

They were very nervous about this request, but thinking about the bandits they might encounter along the way, they just gritted their teeth and begged.

Soon the news spread from Liu Yu's mansion.

As long as you are willing to return to Luoyang, you can go with the army.

The news quickly spread throughout the entire Chang'an City, and people's praise for Liu Yu reached a climax at this moment.

Liu Yu was still making final arrangements for staying in Chang'an City in his mansion.

Guan Yu led the troops, Man Chong governed the people, Zhang Ji cultivated land, and Chen Dao protected the emperor. These four people were Liu Yu's earliest arrangements.

After thinking for a long time, he still felt a little uneasy. These people were all capable, but none of them was known for their wisdom.

He said a lot to Xu Shu, and then decided to keep Xu Shu in Chang'an City.

"Yuanzhi, remember what I just said. We must deploy more scouts and keep a close eye on the situation around Chang'an. If anything unexpected happens, we must be prepared early."

"Don't worry, my lord. I've made note of it."

Looking at the confidence on Xu Shu's face, Liu Yu's heart calmed down a little.

The team left in Changan now has both courage and strategy, both inside and outside. As long as there are no accidents, there will be no problems.

The remaining generals Zhang Xiu and Ma Chao, and the strategist Guo Jia were all brought with Liu Yu. In addition, there were 60,000 armored soldiers.

Although these 60,000 soldiers were all new recruits, Zhang Xiu's training over this period of time had already shown obvious changes.

Quiet, orderly, and full of fighting spirit.

Guo Jia sat in the carriage, looking at the slow-moving team, feeling very bored. According to the current marching speed, it would take at least a month to reach Luoyang.

During a break, he reported this problem to Liu Yu.

"My lord, this speed is too slow. The old, young, women and children among the people cannot walk fast at all. If we march at this speed, I am afraid we won't be able to reach Luoyang City in a month."

Liu Yu nodded, and it was obvious that he had noticed this problem a long time ago.

"What do you think should be done about this matter?"

"We will take the soldiers and ride back to Luoyang as fast as possible, leaving some soldiers behind to escort the people back slowly."

Guo Jia's suggestion can indeed solve the problem of difficulty in marching.

But Liu Yu did not agree immediately, but lowered his head in thought.

Although this method is good, it may cause Liu Yu to lose the opportunity to win the hearts of the people.

Liu Yu thought of the memories of later generations. When Liu Bei left Xinye, he was chased by Cao Cao and his cavalry, but he still stayed with the people. How could he abandon the people and leave alone just because his marching speed was slow?

"Fengxiao, since the people are willing to follow me back to Luoyang, it means they trust me. I will not abandon them and go forward alone."

"But the slow journey you mentioned is indeed a problem. Let me tell you my order. Except for His Majesty, everyone, regardless of their position, must give up their carriages and let women, children, and the elderly sit in them."

"Fengxiao, don't lie in the carriage and drink anymore. Follow me, let's ride on horseback."

Guo Jia was a little stunned.

"Lord, this..."

When it comes to riding a horse, Guo Jia is a little reluctant, because riding a horse is not as comfortable as riding in a car.

Guo Jia was still uncomfortable with the constant shaking of the horse, but what he could not tolerate the most was that it was too inconvenient to drink on the horse.

When the people heard the soldiers' orders, they were somewhat surprised.

Let me take a carriage back to Luoyang, I didn’t hear it wrongly.

Seeing that everyone was determined, it seemed that they were not joking.

Through this incident, Liu Yu's reputation among the people instantly rose.

The calls for the emperor's uncle's benevolence and righteousness rose one after another among the crowd.

Liu Yu looked up at the sky. It was blue and there was a gentle breeze, which made Liu Yu feel very happy.

There was some confusion in Guo Jia's eyes.

"My Lord, have you thought about how to resettle so many people who followed us back to Luoyang?"

"I have already thought about this. Their house was burned down by Dong Zhuo. Nowadays, most of the houses in Luoyang are newly built."

"These houses were originally used to recruit refugees. If they want to live here, they can be given priority in choosing."

"That's exactly what I'm worried about." Guo Jia's face was filled with worry. "There are good houses, bad houses, big houses, small houses. How do you plan to distribute them when the time comes?"

"It's very simple. Those houses will not be given to them for free. They need to pay for them. I will classify them into numerous grades according to their size and quality. For example, those close to the school and those facing the street are of course expensive. If you want a good house, you naturally have to pay money. Fengxiao, tell me, does this method solve the problem?"

Guo Jia pondered for a moment and felt that this method could indeed solve the problem of unfair housing distribution, but there was a new problem.

"My Lord, in this era, except for the wealthy, the common people don't have much money. Some people even have trouble eating, so how can they afford to buy a house?"

"This problem is easy to solve." Liu Yu smiled faintly, "We can let them pay a small part of the money first, and let them pay the rest every year. As long as the interest is not too high, or the house price is not too high, I think they can accept it."

"It doesn't matter if he is penniless. He just needs to sign a contract and pay off the money for the house within a specified time, and then he can move in."

Liu Yu talked eloquently to Guo Jia. Under the influence of later generations, he was almost familiar with this set of theories. However, I am afraid that anyone can talk about it eloquently in this era.

"What do you think of this method, Fengxiao? Can it solve the dispute over the house?"

Guo Jia had never heard of this theory, but after careful consideration, he felt that this method was feasible, but he was still a little worried.

"Although this idea is good, I am still a little worried. The world is in turmoil and the people are suffering. I am afraid there is no extra money to repay the interest."

"Don't worry about that. I have already thought of a solution. After returning to Luoyang, the first thing I will do is to repair the palace. This is a big project and not many people are needed. Anyone who comes to repair it will be paid."

"If they don't believe me, you can pay them on a daily basis. Fengxiao, have someone calculate the exact amount of their daily wages. The wages can't be too much or too little. Try to get them to pay off the mortgage in two years."
