Chapter 314

Guangming Hall is located in the north of the center of Chang'an City, next to Weiyang Palace. It was originally a palace used by the imperial court to receive distinguished guests.After Liu Chan moved his capital to Chang'an, he found that the Weiyang Palace and Guangming Palace were relatively well preserved in the palace. In addition, because the library was empty and the prime minister blocked it, he did not spend a lot of time building a new palace, but just painted the Guangming Palace. Fresh paint just moved in.

Since he moved in, Liu Chan has been thinking all day about how to talk to his father, get some money from the treasury, build a magnificent palace, marry more than 100 concubines, and feel the emperor's treatment.

After all, the world is unified, and he, the emperor, should enjoy it.

Although the splitting of the two governments has been going on for two years, and most of the rights of the prime minister's mansion have been returned to the inner government, but in fact.Liu Chan still has not obtained the most critical financial power and military power.

And the most important thing is that Zhuge Liang has always had a veto power.

Speaking of this, I have to mention the power structure of the Shu Han, which is divided into the emperor-the prime minister-the inner and outer palaces (the general's mansion)-the civil and military officials-the governors of various places-the county guards of various places (the generals of various places)-the counties of various places Captain's Seven Steps.

Although Liu Chan is the supreme leader of the Shu Han, he actually doesn't care about anything.

Government affairs are all returned to the inner government, that is, the four auxiliary ministers discuss and resolve them, and report to the prime minister's tribunal if they cannot be resolved.

Military matters belong to the General's Mansion, and if the General's Mansion cannot solve them, they are also reported to the Prime Minister's Tribunal.

If the prime minister can't solve it, it will be reported to him, the emperor, for punishment.

But the prime minister is the omnipotent prime minister Zhuge Liang, is there any problem he can't solve?

Liu Chan has been on the throne for 13 years, and he hasn't really been in charge of the family yet.Therefore, after hearing the news that Zhuge Liang had left Chang'an, Liu Chan was excited at first. He felt that he could finally be the master of the house for a while.

But on the third day after Zhuge Liang left Chang'an, the Lord of Ji Han Zhongxing was sitting at the top of Guangyang Hall, covered with a thin quilt of Sichuan brocade, holding a wine glass in his hand, and his chubby round face was full of anxiety. meaning.

No one cares about his feelings, so uncomfortable!

Next to him, the eunuch Huang Hao was reporting what he had heard: "Your Majesty, General Ma Di just arrived in Chang'an yesterday, and General Sima Yi and his son Sima Shi came to visit him. It is said that Sima Shi's wife is critically ill. Go ask Ma Su for medicine."

"Besides, before the Prime Minister left, everything should be distributed to the two governments, and all decrees were spread to other places. The counties are also as stable as Mount Tai, only Bingzhou and Youzhou, and the Hu people are not very peaceful."

"Also, General Ma Di went out of the mansion overnight yesterday, and his whereabouts are missing."

"Very good." Liu Chan replied absent-mindedly, his eyes wandering, as if he was thinking about a very important matter.

Huang Hao noticed that His Majesty was very anxious today, usually at such a time, he couldn't joke with His Majesty.

After a pause, Liu Chan suddenly asked: "Huang Hao, you said the prime minister is gone, will anyone object to my building a palace? Will anyone stop me from choosing a concubine?"

Huang Hao thought for a while, but he was also a little uncertain, "As long as the general and the ministers of the inner court do not object, there should be no objection."

Liu Chan nodded, and then asked Huang Hao a few irrelevant questions.

After Huang Hao answered one by one, the Guangyang Hall quickly became quiet.

Liu Chan rubbed his hands and hesitated for a while, then stood up suddenly, looked at Huang Hao and said, "Huang Hao, in the entire palace, the person I trust the most is you. Honestly, am I a fool?"

Huang Hao lowered his head and chewed on these words silently, without replying immediately.

Obviously, His Majesty's question is not valid at all.
Throughout the ages, is there any foolish king who can lead a weak country to rule the world?It is also a kind of great wisdom to know people and delegate power, which is an ability that many emperors do not possess.

So what His Majesty is asking is not the question "Is it a faint king?", but "If I am not a foolish king, why have I been on the throne for 13 years and still have no power?"

But this question has already touched the little eunuch's blind spot, Huang Hao didn't know how to answer it at all.

Liu Chan probably also realized that he asked Yu Blind, and quickly changed his words: "I have something to do."

Huang Hao hurriedly bowed his body and put his ears on his ears, as if he was listening.

Liu Chan didn't order directly, he made a gesture first, and waited for the imperial guards guarding around the main hall to walk out knowingly, leaving the entire Guangyang Hall to the master and servant, and then he said:
"Father Xiang has been gone for three days."

"Three days." Huang Hao replied.

Liu Chan's eyes drifted to the outside of the hall, and his fat fingers tapped on the table: "But why do I feel that Xiangfu has been gone for three months, and my heart is empty, and I always feel that the old man will not come back?"

Huang Hao said with relief: "The Prime Minister used to lead troops to go out for a whole year without returning. Why is Your Majesty suddenly becoming sentimental?"

Liu Chan suddenly raised his voice: "It's different, it's different this time."

He stretched out his hand anxiously, and tightly grasped Huang Hao's sleeve: "Go to Nanyang immediately and see if Xiangfu has left me any words."

Huang Hao was startled, "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister just left... Do you want Xiao Nu to go in person?"

"Yes, you go in person, immediately, immediately!"

Hearing Liu Chan's words, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Huang Hao's face. He was cut into the palace since he was a child, and he has never traveled far alone, and he didn't even know where Nanyang was.

Although there will be someone to guide him and escort him to Nanyang, he is worried that this matter will be ruined.

Huang Hao shrank his neck and muttered: "Your Majesty, has that little slave gone?"

Liu Chan waved his hand, motioning him to hurry up on the road: "Be quick, don't dawdle, go!"

Huang Hao left with a sad face.

In fact, the reason why he didn't want to go to Nanyang was not only because of Lu Yuan, but also because the prime minister didn't want to see him. He was terrified of Zhuge Liang, who usually had a serious face.

But His Majesty had spoken, and he had to go.

……

At dusk, the red sun slanted westward.

Twenty miles outside Xiangyang City, there is a thatched cottage on Wollongong in Longzhong.

After the unification of the world, Xiangyang City was reclassified to Nanyang County.

Zhuge Liang, the 55-year-old Prime Minister of Ji Han, with the support of the young general Zhao Yun, tremblingly pushed open the door of the thatched cottage that had been covered in dust for many years.

The original gate has long been decayed and weathered, and now the gate should be reinstalled by enthusiastic villagers nearby, including the three thatched huts that are brand new as yesterday.

Zhuge Liang looked at the familiar scenery in the yard, took a deep breath, his two long white eyebrows trembled, and murmured: "Go back, come back, come, my long-cherished wish"

When Zhao Yun heard this sentence, his heart was deeply touched.

If the prime minister's long-cherished wish has been fulfilled, he will have no regrets for the rest of his life.Then why is he not like this.

If at this moment, the late emperor Liu Beiquan knows, he should rest in peace.

It's a pity that he and the prime minister are the only ones left in the group of old fellows with fiery ideals back then.

Zhao Yun helped Zhuge Liang to sit down on the steps of the thatched hut, took the xylophone from the carriage and set it up, and waited respectfully by the side.

Zhuge Liang adjusted the sound quality a little, and plucked the strings hard.

The melodious and frustrating sound of the piano then flowed out from the fingertips, floated out of the yard, and echoed in the bamboo forest.

In the depths of the bamboo grove, a majestic scribe led a horse, stopped to listen, and the familiar words involuntarily appeared in his heart.

Tie up your hair and read poetry and books, cultivate morality and self-cultivation.

Looking up and looking down, the strategy is kept in the chest...

……

The sky was getting dark and a new moon was rising.
