In mid-to-late July, Cao Xiu led the entire team to Luoyang.

Just like when Liu Cong and others came to Luoyang a year ago, they also came to Luoyang during the scorching summer season.

At that time, Guo Peng sent a rare prison in charge of He Zheng to give cold drinks to Liu Cong and others. This time, Guo Peng also sent a rare prison in charge of He Zheng to give cold drinks to Liu Zhang and others, just like a year ago.

Ice sour plum soup, iced sugar cane juice and other iced juices, and a cold food called ice bowl, which is made by the old firewood themselves, plus almonds, fresh walnuts, grapes, peaches, and pear cubes, mixed with ice cubes, which tastes unique in the hot weather.

During the hot summer season, the weather was hot, and Liu Zhang could no longer bear the heat when he sat in the carriage. After all, Liu Zhang was not thin at all and was even more afraid of heat. The cold drink Guo Peng gave him saved him once.

Liu Zhang, who had never eaten cold drinks since last year, thanked He Zheng for a while, then took the cup containing the cold drinks and drank it in big mouthfuls.

After drinking the cold and sweet juice, Liu Zhang felt much more comfortable. Then he picked up the ice bowl and looked at the dazzling array of fruit slices of various colors and a layer of ice cubes below, which was amazing.

What Liu Zhang had eaten was actually quite simple cold drinks. Guo Peng did not expect that without taking the initiative to propose it, the group of old hotheads actually took the initiative to use milk to try cold drinks.

Once, I made a bowl of cold drink called Milk Flower, which even reminded Guo Peng of the taste of milk ice cream.

Of course, these are exclusive to the royal family, and the cost is too high, and Guo Peng himself is reluctant to eat them, let alone give them to Liu Zhang. He has some juice and ice bowls to eat them, which is right for him.

In addition to Liu Zhang, He Zheng also brought cold drinks to the family of Liu Zhang, some important officials and their families, as well as a carriage and a bucket of ice to cool them down.

Of course, only those important officials have such treatment, so naturally those little fish and shrimps will not have that treatment.

They don't deserve the luxury of using ice cubes.

Saving ice cubes is very expensive!

If it weren't for the purpose of rewarding meritorious ministers or close ministers in the summer to win over the people's hearts, Guo did not plan to build such a large ice cellar, and was planning to reduce it by two-thirds, so he would just let the royal family use it themselves.

However, rewarding ice to ministers in summer is a good way to win over people's hearts and reflect the emperor's character. This ice cellar really has to be repaired.

The ice cellar is under the supervision of Shangshen. When it was cold last winter, the entire Shangshen station went out to dig ice outside Luoyang City, and then transported it back to the palace piece by piece. It took several days to fill the cellar.

And in summer, it's time to use it.

In the midsummer and hot summer, I gave the important officials a cup of royal cold drink. The effect of winning people's hearts is definitely not comparable to ordinary rewards, which is really good.

It's really expensive though!

But the money is worth it.

After receiving the cold drink given by the emperor, Liu Zhang expressed his sincere gratitude, and then knelt down outside the city with great awareness and thanked the emperor in the city for his kindness.

"My minister Liu Zhang, thank you Your Majesty!"

Then, the surrendered ministers of Shu Han who also received cold drinks were rewarded quickly and knelt down and thanked the emperor in the city for their kindness.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

I have to say that Liu Zhang has a very good sense of identity transformation and is very responsible for being a fish meat. He Zheng thinks that if Guo Peng knows, he will definitely be very happy.

Guo Peng was indeed very happy. After He Zheng sent Liu Zhang and others to the inn to settle down, he went to the palace to report to Guo Peng and told Guo Peng about this.

Guo Peng smiled.

"Liu Jiyu is also sensible. He knows that I am a knife and a fish meat, so he has to make a gesture in time. Unfortunately, I still had some idea before and did not surrender in time. Otherwise, I would have to give him three thousand households a fief and provide him with delicious food and drink.

But now, it’s good to save a lot of money, and you can just put people in Yizhou directly. It’s not difficult to control Yizhou later. Liu Jiyu has made a contribution to me. If he has any needs, try to help him and satisfy him, and don’t put the population into a solid state.”

"Abide by the order."

He Zheng replied, go do business immediately.

The incident of Liu Zhang's arrival in Luoyang soon spread across the streets and alleys of Luoyang, and everyone from officials to the people found it very interesting.

Because it was almost this time a year ago that Liu Cong of Jingzhou was captured and surrendered to His Majesty the Emperor. At this time of this year, Liu Zhang of Yizhou came to surrender again.

Continuous victory stimulates people's nerves.

This message made them believe that the army led by His Majesty the Emperor was invincible, that they lived in an invincible country, and that the taxes were not high and that they had food to eat.

The cohesion and human hearts belonging to the Guo Wei regime are constantly born, born, born, and constantly improved.

Memories belonging to the Han Empire are constantly disappearing, while memories belonging to the Wei Empire are constantly born and consolidated.

This is how the Wei Empire continued to fundamentally replace everyone's memories of the Han Empire and established their awareness and inertia as the people of the Wei Kingdom.

When Liu Zhang established Shu Han, some small waves appeared, but there was no meaning. After he was eliminated, the small waves no longer existed.

People will only believe that God wants Wei to replace Han, and the era of Wei Empire has arrived.

Whether some people are willing to admit it or not, this era has arrived, and inertia has formed and will not be easily broken.

This group of last Han Empire's remnants will also accept their fate.

When Liu Cong used the money rewarded by Guo Peng to spend his life and wine and enjoy the joy of the paradise at home, he heard that Liu Zhang was captured to Luoyang, and a trace of undetectable sadness flashed in his eyes. After a moment, he was still the waste who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.

After Han Song, who was working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, heard about this incident, he paused his hand and immediately returned to normal. He continued to find out the official pictures and texts related to the Western Regions recorded during the Han Dynasty and summarized and recorded them.

Liu Zhang and his surrender team were announced three days later to attend the surrender ceremony held by Emperor Wei.

All the people needed to change into prison uniforms and wear shackles. They walked to the palace square under the custody of the Wei army soldiers in a shameful manner to surrender to the supreme Emperor Wei in the world.

Then His Majesty the Emperor of Wei will announce his forgiveness and reward to them, giving them a new identity that belongs to the official Wei Empire, and they will start a new life with such a new identity.

Liu Zhang still didn't know what arrangements Guo Peng gave him. He asked He Zheng, but He Zheng did not give him an accurate answer, but just said that he would definitely satisfy him, which made Liu Zhang a little uneasy.

After changing into prisoner's clothes and wearing shackles, Liu Zhang led the team to the front of a group of surrendered ministers, feeling very depressed.

On the way to the palace, there were a large number of people watching curiously on both sides of the road, watching what the consequences of the traitor defeated by their Majesty, and also pointed at them from time to time, which made Liu Zhang and others very embarrassed.

This is what they must do, because they resisted, they caused losses to the Wei army, and they must appear here as a sinner to calm the anger in the hearts of the Wei people.

So no matter how embarrassing it, I will suffer!

These people are all pro-war factions among the local Yizhou and the people of Dongzhou. They do not include Xu Jing and other surrendered factions, so they treat them differently, so they make the surrendered factions very happy.

They had already set out to the palace in advance to receive the reward given to them by the emperor. When Liu Zhang and others appeared, they would stand in the queue of Wei officials, which was considered as Guo Peng who helped them compensate for the unfair treatment they had encountered on Liu Zhang before.

Now these people are waiting proudly and gloatingly for Liu Zhang and his group to appear in front of them.

In an extremely embarrassing posture.

It is conceivable that even if these people become officials in the court later, they will become two groups of people who are hostile to each other and hate each other, and they will definitely be incompatible with each other.

When Mr. Guo thinks of this, he will feel happy and happy from the bottom of his heart.

It's really fun to have them fight and fight.

We must never let this group of people be harmonious, we must definitely let this group of people separate factions and continue to fight.
Chapter completed!
