Chapter 85

~3 min read 416 words

In the following half month, everything was calm and peaceful.

Under the care of the medicine prescribed by the imperial physicians, Huang Xu's body was much better than it had been half a month ago.

Li Ru worked overtime to complete the plan for moving the capital and submitted it to Old Dong.

During this period, Old Dong specifically called Gu Yi and Li Ru to the Prime Minister's mansion to further discuss the matter of moving the capital.

With the unanimous approval of the two strategists.

Old Dong finally made the final decision on the plan for moving the capital.

Of course, moving the capital was a matter of top priority.

It could not be accomplished overnight.

In Li Ru's estimated plan, if they started moving the capital from next month, it would take roughly three months to complete all matters related to the move.

Moreover, the city of Chang'an had been in disrepair for some years.

It also needed to be renovated.

However, although the process was very troublesome.

Moving the capital was the necessary path for the Xiliang Army to achieve further development.

No matter what, this step had to be completed.

And in these ten-plus days, besides finalizing the plan for moving the capital.

Another rather intriguing thing happened.

The then-Inspector of Jingzhou, Liu Jingsheng, sent his eldest son Liu Qi with gifts to Luoyang to pay his respects to Dong Zhongying.

This fellow Liu Jingsheng had always maintained a close attitude toward the Dong Zhongying faction.

His status as Inspector of Jingzhou was also originally appointed by Dong Zhongying.

And Liu Jingsheng himself was the only one among the series of Guandong warlords appointed by Dong Zhongying who did not raise the banner against Dong!

It must be said that Liu Jingsheng really had political wisdom.

The Jingzhou where he was located was almost adjacent to Old Dong's territory.

If Old Dong wanted to attack him, he could send troops from Hulao Pass or from Wuguan.

Under such circumstances, Liu Jingsheng decisively chose to refuse to mix with the Guandong warlords!

Instead, he consistently honored the Han imperial court under Dong Zhongying's leadership.

After receiving the confirmed news that Dong Zhongying had crushed the Guandong coalition.

Liu Jingsheng immediately sent his eldest son Liu Qi to bring gifts to Luoyang to congratulate Dong Zhongying on defeating the Guandong coalition!

Such a swift act of showing his stance.

Made Old Dong almost unable to resist wanting to promote Liu Jingsheng again.
