After Liu Cong escaped from Luoyang, he returned to Pingyang and reported the situation in Luoyang to Liu Yuan.
At the time, he didn't know that Wang Mi had died, but Wang Mi's betrayal was undeniable; they had to seize his former territory before he returned, or else the Han Kingdom would lose the southern part of Bingzhou.
And Bingzhou's Jinyang was in the hands of Liu Kun. If they were allowed to unite, it would be a formidable enemy for the Han Kingdom.
Although Liu Yuan was angry at Liu Cong's defeat, he hated Wang Mi's betrayal even more and did not bother to hold him accountable, immediately dispatching a large army to recover Wang Mi's territory.
Halfway through, he received the news of the Emperor Jin moving the capital, and was stunned into silence for a while, "Who did you say escorted the Emperor Jin in the move?"
"Gou Xi."
"It was Gou Xi, not Wang Mi, and not Zhao Hanzhang?"
