[Ying Zheng + Dahan Emperor] Golden House
Chapter 62 The Vinegar Bottle Is Down Σ
Because Liu Che was going to patrol Huainan, Wei Qing specifically asked Liu Che for instructions to transfer General Li Guang back from the border to escort him.
Liu Che smiled and said to Wei Qing: "You are a great general, can't you ensure my safety? Calling back Li Guang to go with you is to make Huainan King see it as a joke."
Wei Qing was silent for a while, but still bowed his head and said: "Although the humble general is willing to confuse your majesty, his qualifications are still relatively low. General Li Guang has more experience in this field than the humble general. It is related to your majesty's safety, and the humble general dare not speak out big."
Liu Che didn't blame Wei Qing, just smiled at Wei Qing and said, "Wei Qing, you are still so cautious, but you have become more and more cautious when you come back from Shuofang."
Wei Qing said: "It's really a matter of great importance."
Liu Che said: "Forget it, just follow what you said and transfer Li Guang back. I haven't seen Li Guang for some days, so I miss him."
Wei Qing responded, and with nothing else to do, he withdrew.
Li Guang was very happy when he received the emperor's edict. Although it was just for escort and not to be a striker, Li Guang felt that the emperor still thought of him, so he was naturally very happy. One day he really You can be a striker.
Li Guang quickly ordered his trusted troops and came back from the border. Wei Qing knew that he had entered the capital, and when Li Guang went to pay his respects to the emperor, he prepared to call everyone to discuss the accompanying escort.
Because the emperor wanted to make the old lady happy this time, and at the same time, he wanted to promote the national power of the Han Dynasty like the princes and kings, so it was necessary to be grand and extravagant, and there were countless important officials accompanying him.
When Yingzheng arrived at the Chamber of Commerce, everyone was already seated. When they saw the prime minister coming, they all stood up and saluted to say hello, and Yingzheng returned the salute.
Wei Qing said: "My lords, sit down."
After waiting for everyone to be seated, he said: "This time the emperor is on a tour of Huainan country, and he entrusted the escort to General Li Guang and his subordinates, so I would like to ask all my lords for advice."
Li Guang has a high reputation in the military camp, and he thought that his military achievements were extraordinary, but due to bad luck, other generals were enshrined as marquises one after another, but Li Guang was unable to be enshrined as a marquis all along. General, in charge of the garrison, although Li Guang also believed that he could beat the Huns back to Heshuo, but he felt a little bit uneasy in his heart, thinking that if he was a forward, he could also beat the Huns to hell.
At this time, Li Guang heard that Wei Qing mentioned himself first, and he, the great general, followed his own name instead, and he felt a lot more at ease.
Li Guang is a rough person, and his heart is not bad, but he is too impulsive, Wei Qing also knows this, so Wei Qing is very respectful, so as to avoid causing troubles, after all, he is loyal to the emperor. Fighting can be avoided.
Seeing Li Guang's happy face, Ying Zheng couldn't help smiling. Li Guang is so easy to understand, his happiness and displeasure can be seen on his face, and Liu Che's kindness to him can make all the unhappiness from the past go away. They were all forgotten, and they didn't hold any grudges at all. This was one of the reasons why Li Guang enjoyed such a high reputation in the army.
After Wei Qing finished speaking, he smiled at Li Guang and said, "General Li Guang is a veteran, so why not talk about it first."
Li Guangzheng was proud of Wei Qing being so respectful to him, and just about to speak, suddenly a person rushed in, everyone took a closer look, and the only one who could be so frizzy in the palace was the famous Huo Qubing in Liu Che's eyes.
Huo Qubing was one of the accompanying people, and everyone was here to discuss matters related to the entourage. Huo Qubing would naturally come, but he was caught by the little prince Liu Ju. By the time I got here, it had already started talking.
When Huo Qubing came in, he thought it would be embarrassing if he saw Wei Qing, and wondered if the other party remembered the camping a few days ago, but when he looked up, the first thing he saw was Ying Zheng.
Huo Qubing was startled, and suddenly thought that Yingzheng's current position is the prime minister, and he would definitely come to participate in the discussion. He had been thinking about Wei Qing, but he forgot about Yingzheng, and his heart skipped a beat.
To be honest, he was in a dilemma. After all, he had lived in the Han Dynasty for 14 years, and Liu Che, in particular, valued him very much. Before he reached the crown, he was recruited into the army and waited for Huo Qubing to grow up. In order to have his own cronies immediately, which courtier does not want to be valued by the king.
However, he is not a grateful person, and the king who has been loyal to him all his life is right in front of him, which really makes him a bit in a dilemma.
Although Liu Che is still very young, he is not as thoughtful as Ying Zheng in thinking about many things, and he is not as decisive as Ying Zheng when it comes to blood relatives, but it must be said that Liu Che is a king of the world, at least his thoughts, his decisions The policy can keep pace with Yingzheng.
The eyes of Huo Qubing and Ying Zheng collided, and they couldn't help but look away, and then quickly turned away.
Seeing Huo Qubing barging in irritably, Wei Qing wanted to say a few words to him so that he could remember it next time, but when he saw him, he was taken aback for a moment, then stared at Long Wohou in a daze, then with a complicated expression, he withdrew it The gaze, this series of reactions made Wei Qing a little puzzled. He didn't know that his nephew knew Long Lihou, or had any relationship.
Thinking this way, Wei Qing didn't know why there was a strange feeling in his chest, but Wei Qing didn't dare to delve into what it was for.
Wei Qing immediately withdrew his gaze and said, "Sit down quickly."
Huo Qubing responded and quickly sat down.
Li Guang then said: "The emperor's visit to Huainan country is nothing more than two points. Although I am at the border, Li Guang, I know it. This is the first... The emperor just issued an order to extend favor to the princes and kings, and accepted the princes and kings. Military power, presumably, is to show the emperor's military strength to the vassal states, so as to act as a deterrent."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone nodded one after another. They seemed to think that what Li Guang said was very reasonable. Li Guang was still proud and said with a smile: "Secondly, the emperor attaches great importance to filial piety, and the empress dowager has been too worried recently. It's good to play in the mountains and rivers to relieve your mood."
After Li Guang finished speaking, the others nodded again, Li Guang said: "So our escorts must follow these two, not only to ensure the emperor's safety, but also to make the old lady of the East Palace not feel tired. It is also very important to be able to restrain the princes and kings... the emperor is on tour, and the capital is empty, so we must be prepared to prevent the Xiongnu from harming the princes and kings."
After he finished speaking, everyone felt that it was very reasonable. Sure enough, it was reasonable for the emperor to transfer a veteran like Li Guang back. Li Guang was very thoughtful and almost didn't need others to supplement.
Bowang Hou Zhangqian said: "All of us have gone out with the emperor, who will be in charge in the capital?"
He looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Even the prime minister is not in the capital, so how do you comment on all the big and small matters?"
Yingzheng felt a little regretful. If he could stay in the capital, Liu Che's tour would not be a one-day event, so he would naturally seize this opportunity. If Liu An, the king of Huainan, failed to rebel, he would take Liu Che's lair in the capital. It must be a good taste. If Liu An, the king of Huainan, succeeded in rebelling, he would not be able to enter the capital according to Liu An's cautious nature.
However, Liu Che must take Ying Zheng on a tour. I don't know why, these days Liu Che suddenly promoted Ying Zheng on purpose. In the eyes of outsiders, this is a favor, but in Ying Zheng's heart, he is even more cautious. Well, it is impossible to lose pie in the sky, if Wei Qing is favored, the emperor will alienate Wei Zifu, this is to balance the Wei family, and the unexpected closeness and favor are actually a signal of suspicion.
How could someone as keen as Ying Zheng fail to catch such a signal.
Ying Zheng felt a little sorry for missing this opportunity to stay in the capital, but he didn't care about such an opportunity.
Ying Zheng said: "Han Anguo, the imperial historian, can preside over it."
Only then did Zhang Qian nod his head, and said, "Indeed, I heard that Han Anguo is very remarkable."
Li Guang said with a smile: "Bo Wanghou has just returned from the Western Regions, so naturally he doesn't know that this Han Anguo was the Prime Minister of the King of Liang back then. He can offer advice and fight wars, and the emperor thinks highly of him."
Wei Qing frowned, and said, "It's just that Dr. Yushi seems to be in poor health recently, and he may be a little tired to be the leader alone."
Naturally, Ying Zheng didn't want to worry about Liu Che's state affairs, and said, "Let's ask the emperor about this matter."
Because Huo Qubing saw Ying Zheng, he was always in a daze. Everyone was discussing at the same time, and he listened to what Li Guang said. He seemed to have nothing to add, so he was even more dazzled.
Wei Qing wanted him to talk about his opinion, but he turned his head and saw Huo Qubing sitting a little behind, staring at Ying Zheng obliquely in front of him, lost in thought.
That kind of look shouldn't belong to Huo Qubing. In Wei Qing's impression, Huo Qubing hasn't been so worried about anything in 14 years. That kind of complicated look makes people confused.
Ying Zheng had no intention of discussing with them how to escort them, so he naturally knew that Huo Qubing had been watching him all the time, if he could include Huo Qubing in his ranks, then he would be like a tiger with wings added.
The matter of accepting the military power of the princes and kings and pushing favors has already advanced the process of King Huainan's rebellion. Since King Huainan is about to rebel, Yingzheng will naturally have to speed up his own progress. Liu Che didn't have time to spare, so everything was easy to handle.
When Wei Qingshang settled the matter, everyone stood up and prepared to leave the palace. Ying Zheng deliberately took two steps down, walked side by side with Huo Qubing, and said with a light smile, "Taking advantage of the emperor's visit this time, we also have a lot of time to talk. .”
Huo Qubing glanced at him, before he could speak, Wei Qing called Huo Qubing from behind.
Ying Zheng smiled again, said goodbye to Huo Qubing, and left by himself.
Liu Che asked Wei Qing to go to Zhang Luo for a tour, so he went to the East Palace to pay his respects.
The empress dowager has been in poor health these days. When Tian Fu died, the empress dowager couldn't help being beaten. She was ill for a long time, and when it was serious, she couldn't get out of the couch. The imperial doctor knelt and waited at the gate of the East Palace every day.
When Liu Che entered the East Palace, the Empress Dowager was sitting on the phoenix seat with her eyes closed to rest her mind. Liu Che invited Ann and said, "My son is here to tell mother the good news. The son has already started preparations for the tour."
The empress dowager was a little happy when she heard this, and said: "I'm ready? When can I leave? I don't know if my body can hold it. I'm really old. I can't accept my old age...Who are you going to take? There are so many people. These are also lively, but don't drag on for too long."
The Empress Dowager talked to herself for quite a long time. Liu Che listened and knew that she was happy, so she talked more.
Liu Che said: "Don't worry about the patrol, you can start in a few days."
The empress dowager smiled on her face, and the smile became stronger when she heard it, but she suddenly seemed to think of something, and suddenly stopped her smile, saying: "Your Majesty, I want to tell you something."
Seeing her expression, Liu Che vaguely knew what the empress dowager wanted to say.
Sure enough, I heard the Empress Dowager say: "I have always felt uncomfortable about your uncle's death. Do you know, Your Majesty, that I can think of your uncle's illness when I close my eyes these days, which makes me feel extremely uncomfortable... "
As she spoke, she began to cough non-stop. The maid next to her hurriedly brought medicine and water. The Empress Dowager waved the maid away. Liu Che had no choice but to walk over and pat the Empress Dowager on the back.
Seeing Liu Che's actions, the empress dowager felt a little calmer, and said, "That Chen Yu, why is he still serving as the prime minister? Your majesty, don't you think that the death of Marquis Wu'an was caused by this Chen Yu bullying others! Even if Liu Dingguo, king of Yanshan, is heinous, what did you do to your uncle, he was chained and imprisoned several times, he is Marquis Wu'an, not a sinner!"
Liu Che said, "Mother, don't be angry."
The empress dowager said: "How can I not be angry...and let me marry my daughter to him? How is it possible!"
Liu Che said: "But you were the mother who wanted to marry the imperial sister to the prime minister at the time. Now that you have been granted the title of Marquis of Long Lu, if you don't marry the imperial sister to him, how can the imperial sister go out to meet people in the future?"
"No!" The Empress Dowager said: "Longli is still young and not suitable for marriage, anyway, I don't care, your uncle is gone, you can no longer marry Longli to Chen Yu."
In fact, Liu Che didn't want to marry his imperial sister to Ying Zheng. No matter what he thought about Ying Zheng in his heart, this Marquis Long Lu was too much like Chen Ajiao, no matter what he said or did, or how he acted. His own imperial sister married him.
In fact, Liu Che just wanted to shut up the empress dowager's mouth, and let her say both pros and cons.
Liu Che said: "I have to think about this matter again. My mother has already said it before. How can a word of gold be trusted?"
"Okay, I don't care about that. Longli is my daughter. I have the final say. If the emperor has something to do, he can go to it."
Liu Che didn't say any more, his goal had already been achieved, so he said: "If mother is tired, rest more, son will leave first, and once the tour is ready, I will send someone to invite mother to prepare."
The Empress Dowager nodded, closed her eyes, and waved her hand, indicating that Liu Che could go.
Princess Yang Xinchang came to the palace every three days because she wanted to marry Wei Qing. Wei Zifu wanted this marriage wholeheartedly, but Wei Qing refused to agree. Wei Zifu had no choice but to prevaricate Princess Yang Xinchang said that Wei Qing was busy, and he was busy with patrolling things when he just came back, so he had never been to Jiaofangdian, so he couldn't ask.
Princess Yang Xinchang is very smart, but because this question involves her own marriage, she feels too shy to say it, so she doesn't press too hard.
Princess Yang Xinchang came out of Jiaofang Hall again this day, saying she was chatting, but in fact she was asking Wei Qing if she agreed, but it was conceivable that she still returned without success.
Princess Yang Xinchang happened to see Ying Zheng from a distance. She still remembered that Ying Zheng ignored her overtures at the banquet that day, and she was angry for a moment. Lord Prime Minister."
When Ying Zheng saw Princess Yang Xin, there was no change on his face, he just sized her up and said with a smile, "Princess Chang came out of Jiaofang Palace?"
Princess Yang Xinchang's entry into the palace is nothing more than the Jiaofang Palace or the East Palace. These days, the Empress Dowager of the East Palace is not in good health, and she is upset because of Tian Fu's affairs. chat.
Yang Xin felt that it was no big deal for Ying Zheng to guess it, and said with a smile: "That's right, we are no match for the prime minister, the prime minister is busy with state affairs, we can only talk about it."
Ying Zheng said: "Princess Princess, don't underestimate yourself. If you ask about the situation in the world, no one knows better than Princess Princess."
Yang Xin laughed, but didn't answer.
Ying Zheng continued: "The eldest princess is the benefactor of Queen Wei and the general, but... it would be great if the relationship between the eldest princess and the general could be closer. Does the eldest think so?"
Yang Xin was brought up by him, his face blushed immediately, he gave Ying Zheng a look, and said, "I don't understand what the prime minister means."
Ying Zheng laughed, and deliberately sighed, "It's a pity..."
Yang Xin let out a "thump" in her heart. These days, she ran to the palace almost every day, but Wei Zifu kept silent about Wei Qing's affairs to him. Yang Xin had long felt that something was wrong. Now that Ying Zheng said this, she felt that Even more hopeless.
Ying Zheng watched her face gradually change color, and said: "Although the eldest princess is infatuated, it's just that the other party is really a lump of elm. It's okay to let him order soldiers on the battlefield, and let him share joys and sorrows with the soldiers, but it's not very good." I am afraid, in his heart, he still regards the eldest princess as a benefactor, as the former master, and reverence is reverence after all, and the word 'fear' is a barrier that cannot be bridged."
Yang Xin's face was already very ugly after he said each sentence, his tone was also cold, he couldn't laugh anymore, and said: "What does it have to do with the Prime Minister."
Ying Zheng said: "The eldest princess's important matter has nothing to do with the humble minister, but... Isn't the eldest princess here to chat with the humble minister? If the humble minister said something unpleasant, the eldest princess must not be surprised."
Yang Xin was so angry that he couldn't speak, and finally left without saying a word, flicking his sleeves.
Looking at the back of Princess Yang Xinchang going away, Ying Zheng couldn't help sneering, and came here to make fun of him if he had nothing to do.
These days, Yingzheng is discussing with Wei Qing and Li Guang about the tour, and he has to teach the little prince Liu Shi to go in and out of the palace more frequently. people are practicing singing and dancing.
Ying Zheng saw Li Yan sharp-eyed. Li Yan was wearing a soldier's clothes at this time. Because Wei Qing had won the battle recently, Yuefu also knew that the emperor worked hard on the war, and the singing and dancing were all related to the war.
Li Yan was expelled from Ye Ting, but the people in the palace are cautious, a woman who falls out of favor overnight, but after all, she is a person who has been in the books of Ye Ting, may be favored one day and one night, who can fathom the emperor's mind.
So no one was going to make things difficult for Li Yan, they all had a heart, and Li Yan returned to the Yuefu, at most it was just someone talking behind her back.
When Ying Zheng saw Li Yan wearing men's clothes, his mind suddenly flashed, as if he thought of something, he smiled and walked over.
When everyone saw that it was the prime minister coming, they saluted one after another. Li Yan saw that it was Ying Zheng, and her face turned pale with fright. After all, her brother Li Yannian was talking to the empress dowager in front of the East Palace, saying that the emperor and Long Worry is not clean, so he ended up in today's field.
Li Yan is just a woman who wants to climb up. Although she has many eyes, she is afraid when she is scared. Because she has suffered a loss, she is very afraid of Ying Zheng. It's time to sieve the chaff.
Seeing her trembling all the time, Ying Zheng couldn't help sneering, it's not easy to be able to hang out in the palace with such a little courage.
Ying Zheng asked everyone to go down, but Li Yan saw that she was left alone, and she was even more afraid.
Ying Zheng sat on the railing between the pavilions and said, "Do you still recognize me?"
Li Yan hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Your servant... The servant will naturally recognize the Prime Minister."
Ying Zheng smiled and said: "You should be a talented person. If you play well and win the emperor's favor, you can be a wife. But now you have ended up in this field. Have you ever thought about why?"
When Li Yan heard this, she felt that Ying Zheng really came to make things difficult for her, and Sha Kang trembled even more, saying: "Slave... Slave doesn't dare anymore, I beg the prime minister to spare me!"
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, pretending to be surprised, and said, "Where did I say that? When did I say I was going to make things difficult for you? I just want to promote you."
"This……"
Li Yan was at a loss, obviously not believing that Ying Zheng would be so kind.
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I can't lie to you about a showgirl, can I?"
"But...but..."
Seeing her timid look, Ying Zheng sneered, and said, "I just want to ask you, do you want your name to be put back in the Ye Ting book?"
Li Yan gritted her teeth, and said simply: "Slaves naturally want to!"
Ying Zheng said: "Naturally, what I say and what you do, if you do well, I will let the past go, and you will also be favored by the emperor."
Li Yan said: "It's really possible to do this, the servants are naturally willing."
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "The Emperor is going to visit Huainan soon, you should know about it."
"I know." Li Yan quickly responded.
"Going all the way, you also need to relieve boredom, don't you? If you can accompany you, are you afraid that you won't be favored by the emperor?"
When Li Yan heard this, her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly kowtowed and said: "The slaves and servants are all under the command of the Prime Minister."
Li Yan is very grateful, Ying Zheng didn't say what he asked Li Yan to do, he just said that he would accompany her during the tour, and the rest will be known later.
Ying Zheng stood up and was about to leave. When he got out of the small pavilion, he suddenly turned around to look at Li Yan, squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "When you go with me, remember to bring your outfit with you."
Li Yan was a little puzzled, looked down at her clothes, but still nodded.
Preparations for the tour were quick, Wei Qing and Li Guang worked together, one was cautious and the other had more experience, so it was naturally done quickly.
The battle of Yujia is very powerful, and all the princes and kings have heard about it before they started, some of them are holding the mentality of watching the show, and some are just watching from the sidelines.
Liu Che was not in a hurry, and asked people to put more straw mats on the empress dowager's car. The journey was smooth and not afraid of slowness. Anyway, it was a trip to the mountains and rivers, just to see the beautiful scenery of rivers and mountains.
On this tour, Liu Che did not bring any of the concubines from the harem, not even Wei Zifu from the Jiaofang Palace. When all the local officials knew about this, they were all eager to try, thinking that if they could recommend beauties to send Give it to the emperor, and my future life will be fine.
Liu An, the king of Huainan, heard that the emperor's royal driver was leaving. He was very excited at first. As long as Liu Che entered his Huainan palace, he would not even think about getting out alive. , Let the Huainan King wait and wait, the so-called one-stop effort and then three exhaustion, those daredevils bought by Liu Qian have long lost their interest in waiting.
Just when Huainan King was getting impatient, Liu Che's royal driver finally arrived at the boundary of Huainan.
Liu Che and his party were heavily armored to open the way, guarded by elite soldiers, and because the Empress Dowager could not be tired, they walked very slowly. By the time they reached the border of Huainan, it was getting late.
Ying Zheng was riding on a horse, talking to Bo Wang Hou Zhang Qian, when a servant ran over and said, "Prime Minister, Your Majesty invites you to ride."
Ying Zheng reined in the horse, and looked back at the carriage. He had just entered Huainan, and Liu Che suddenly thought of something.
Yingzheng turned the horse's head, reined in to the carriage, got off the horse, and the servant drew up the curtain to help Yingzheng into the carriage.
Seeing him coming up, Liu Che smiled and said, "Honor Longyou, look, Huainan is really rich, and the water is so clear."
Ying Zheng knew that he was definitely not just chatting when he asked him to come here, so he smiled and said: "What the emperor said is very true."
Liu Che lifted the curtain to look out, and said, "Where is this?"
Ying Zheng said: "Go back to Your Majesty, it's Wangjiang Pavilion."
Liu Che glanced outside again, then sat upright and looked at Ying Zheng, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, I won't go into the city today, I visited Jiangting well, we'll stay overnight with Wangjiangting today."
Ying Zheng was startled when he heard this, and looked up at Liu Che, but he didn't expect that Liu Che would not go into the city.
As Liu Che spoke, he said loudly to the outside: "Stop it, we will be staying at Wangjiang Pavilion today, and all the specifications will be handled according to the army's camping. I am going to live a life as a soldier."
While talking, he got out of the car, turned around and stretched out his hand, signaling to help Ying Zheng get down.
Ying Zheng looked at his outstretched hand, lowered his eyes, and let Liu Che help him out of the car.
Ying Zheng followed him, and when Liu Che praised the beautiful scenery of Wangjiang Pavilion, Liu Che said: "I have stayed in the palace for too long, I should have come to see the great rivers and mountains, but it is not too late now, look Look at this water, how beautiful it is... I have always wanted to live the life of a soldier, eat and live with the soldiers, so that I can feel the hardships and hardships. Today I want to eat the wild game brought by the generals. Lazy."
Liu Che said it very easily, and the soldiers laughed when they heard it. The atmosphere was quite good, but Wei Qing and Li Guang looked at each other, and Ying Zheng was also a little surprised.
I have to say that Ying Zheng was really surprised. He underestimated Liu Che, but Liu Che had already figured out how to deal with King Huainan.
Stopping halfway and not entering the city, regardless of whether King Huainan made a small move, it must have disrupted his plan. What's more, Liu Che joked that everything should be in accordance with the army's specifications. What is the army's specifications? At two o'clock, soldiers took turns patrolling and guarding, and even a bird could not fly into the barracks, let alone an assassin.
Liu Che also asked Wei Qing and Li Guanghuo to eat the wild game that Huo Qubing personally brought in. Even if Huainan King poisoned him, he would have nowhere to go.
And all of this, Liu Che was laughing, and he took two or three strokes. If a person can resolve the crisis around him with a few jokes, it can't be said that he is not powerful or smart.
Liu Che rested for a while, the soldiers moved quickly, set up the tent, set up the bed, and invited Liu Che to rest.
Liu Che said with a smile: "Let's set up a bonfire. It's such a good place. I'm going to sit here tonight and experience the feeling of being surrounded by heaven and earth."
Li Guang responded and hurriedly asked people to build a bonfire.
Liu Che patted the place around him, motioned for Ying Zheng to sit down as well, and said with a smile, "Look at this place, Prime Minister, how is it?"
Ying Zheng said: "Wealthy and comfortable."
"Okay, what a word of ease," Liu Che said while touching his chest with his hand, and said, "It really touched my heart."
Liu Che looked around, saw the soldiers busy but orderly, couldn't help laughing and said: "It's good to be at ease, the world is peaceful, and I won't worry about this or that every day."
While talking, someone moved something past Liu Che's eyes, Liu Che narrowed his eyes, and suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
The man was startled, his whole body was trembling, and he quickly knelt down with a "plop", his head lowered.
Liu Che said: "Look up, I see that you look familiar."
The man was so frightened that his soul flew away, and he didn't dare not look up, so he had no choice but to dawdle and raise his head up.
Liu Che immediately squinted his eyes, his face darkened, and said, "Who told you to follow me!"
The person kneeling on the ground almost fell to the ground in fright, it was undoubtedly Li Yan who was wearing the soldier's clothes.
After listening to Ying Zheng's words, Li Yan followed in men's attire. She thought she could please the emperor, but she didn't expect to be like this. She hurriedly cried aggrievedly, "Yes... the prime minister sent the servants here."
Liu Che didn't expect Li Yan to say that, and glanced sideways at Ying Zheng, who didn't deny it, with a calm face, and said with a smile: "It's true that the humble minister made the claim, but the humble minister is also sharing your majesty's worries. .”
"Oh?"
Liu Che stared at Ying Zheng for a while, but didn't speak anymore. Ying Zheng didn't feel flustered, and said slowly: "I was really afraid that the emperor's journey would be too monotonous, so I called a few people from the Yuefu on my own initiative, and set up a set up at night. With a bonfire, you can let the Yuefu come to sing and play music to add to the fun."
"Really." Liu Che's eyes still did not leave Ying Zheng, he kept staring at Ying Zheng, as if he wanted to see through him, but Ying Zheng didn't shy away from it or be afraid, and he didn't even look panicked, as if he didn't seem to be in the slightest. flaw.
Liu Che said: "Okay, then according to what the prime minister said, wait for the bonfire to be built."
After Liu Che said that, he stopped looking at Ying Zheng, and instead turned his head to look at Li Yan. Suddenly his tone became gentle, and he said with a smile, "Why are you dressed like this?"
Li Yan was a little flattered, she didn't expect the emperor to speak so softly, she immediately replied cowardly and softly: "The emperor subdued Shuofang, his power shocked the whole world, the servants specially prepared songs and dances in this respect, so they dressed like this."
Liu Che nodded and said, "It's hard for you to have a heart."
Li Yan was even more ecstatic, and quickly said in a soft voice: "The emperor's praise really makes the slaves panic, this is the job of the slaves, and besides, it was also thought of by the sisters of Yuefu."
Liu Che and Li Yan talked for a while, but if you asked what they said, there was really not much substance, it was just gossip, but gossip meant that the emperor was in a good mood, which meant that Li Yan was likely to be killed again. The emperor valued it and re-registered Ye Ting.
Ying Zheng's original intention was exactly like this...
Recently, Liu Che's hands and feet on Ying Zheng have increased significantly. Ying Zheng hates these small actions. The tingling and pleasure that can make people lose their minds affects Ying Zheng's judgment.
Li Yan is not a scary character, on the contrary, she can be used. She looks somewhat similar to Empress Chen, that is to say, she looks somewhat similar to her current self. Wearing men's clothes, at first glance, she is still somewhat similar. The same place, but more feminine.
Ying Zheng wanted to use Li Yan to paralyze Liu Che. Anyway, Liu Che missed Empress Chen. If Li Yan was similar, he could naturally get away.
Ying Zheng felt that he was right, and Liu Che chatted with Li Yan as expected.
It was getting dark, and Li Guang had already asked someone to set up a bonfire. Liu Che stood up, patted his clothes, and said, "Let's go."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, but this time it was towards Li Yan. Li Yan was so surprised that she couldn't help herself, she hurriedly stretched out her hand shyly, and was held and pulled by Liu Che. Pretending to be panicked, he knelt down and confessed.
Liu Che pulled her up from the ground, and said with a smile: "Don't be so strict, go, let me see your singing and dancing."
Li Yan responded softly, and followed Liu Che to the campfire.
Ying Zheng looked at the backs of the two and squinted his eyes. His goal had been achieved, and Liu Che's "sincerity" to Empress Chen was just as Ying Zheng thought, it was really vulnerable. What could he say to an emperor? True or false?
It's just that Ying Zheng inexplicably felt that his breathing was stagnant, and his chest felt a little uncomfortable. For some reason, Ying Zheng didn't investigate further, and walked over.
Huo Qubing was holding a thick twig covered with wild game and roasting it on the fire. When he saw them coming over, he said with a smile, "This is from General Li Guang himself. I'll let you have a taste after I roast it."
Wei Qing said: "Qubing, don't be too big or small."
Liu Che waved his hands and said with a smile, "You can do whatever you want today, you don't need to talk about any rules, if Qubing is happy, let him go, you uncle, don't ask him to be so demanding."
Only then did Wei Qing respond, and Huo Qubing took a look at Wei Qing who was standing in the distance through the bright and dark bonfire. Perhaps it was too dark for Huo Qubing to see Wei Qing's expression clearly.
After that day, they didn't even say a complete sentence, Huo Qubing pretended not to care, Wei Qing didn't say anything, and it has been so embarrassing until now.
A servant laid out mats on the ground, and placed the good wine brought from the palace and the melons and fruits offered by the places he visited all the way. Liu Che sat down and motioned for everyone to take their seats.
Liu Che said to Li Yan: "Don't you have a song and dance for everyone to watch, go ahead."
"promise."
Li Yan responded with a gentle voice, got up and walked over, and the maids of the Yuefu also came over. This song and dance was rehearsed for a long time. They knew that the emperor was very interested in fighting the Huns because of subduing Shuofang, so they prepared sword dancing .
Li Yan was dressed in men's clothes, surrounded by crowds, and danced lightly with a wooden sword in her hand. She said it was a sword dance, but in fact it had no strength at all.
Liu Che looked at Li Yan, who was dancing lightly, with good eyesight. He seemed to be very focused, and Liu Che's eyes were very bright against the bright and dark bonfire.
Ying Zheng glanced at Liu Che vaguely from the corner of his eye, but Liu Che seemed to notice it immediately. He turned his head to look at Ying Zheng. His eyes, like lacquer spots, seemed to be bottomless, but his tone seemed to have not noticed Ying Zheng. Looking at him with the same expression, he said with a smile: "Long Luhou, what do you think of this sword dance?"
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Of course it's good."
Liu Che nodded, looked directly at Ying Zheng again, and then looked away.
Yingzheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, Liu Che's eyes were too complicated, and it was difficult for Yingzheng to analyze what the other party meant. He asked a question, and he replied that there was no answer. The following is up.
After Li Yan danced the sword, Liu Che beckoned her to come over, Li Yan hurried over with small steps, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty."
Liu Che pulled her into his arms, Li Yan shyly leaned on Liu Che, Liu Che said with a smile: "This sword dancer is so soft, it will teach the generals a joke."
Li Yan pouted and said: "The emperor is making fun of slaves."
Beside them are all rough soldiers, and they all burst out laughing when they saw this scene.
Liu Che smiled and said to Wei Qing: "You are a great general, can't you ensure my safety? Calling back Li Guang to go with you is to make Huainan King see it as a joke."
Wei Qing was silent for a while, but still bowed his head and said: "Although the humble general is willing to confuse your majesty, his qualifications are still relatively low. General Li Guang has more experience in this field than the humble general. It is related to your majesty's safety, and the humble general dare not speak out big."
Liu Che didn't blame Wei Qing, just smiled at Wei Qing and said, "Wei Qing, you are still so cautious, but you have become more and more cautious when you come back from Shuofang."
Wei Qing said: "It's really a matter of great importance."
Liu Che said: "Forget it, just follow what you said and transfer Li Guang back. I haven't seen Li Guang for some days, so I miss him."
Wei Qing responded, and with nothing else to do, he withdrew.
Li Guang was very happy when he received the emperor's edict. Although it was just for escort and not to be a striker, Li Guang felt that the emperor still thought of him, so he was naturally very happy. One day he really You can be a striker.
Li Guang quickly ordered his trusted troops and came back from the border. Wei Qing knew that he had entered the capital, and when Li Guang went to pay his respects to the emperor, he prepared to call everyone to discuss the accompanying escort.
Because the emperor wanted to make the old lady happy this time, and at the same time, he wanted to promote the national power of the Han Dynasty like the princes and kings, so it was necessary to be grand and extravagant, and there were countless important officials accompanying him.
When Yingzheng arrived at the Chamber of Commerce, everyone was already seated. When they saw the prime minister coming, they all stood up and saluted to say hello, and Yingzheng returned the salute.
Wei Qing said: "My lords, sit down."
After waiting for everyone to be seated, he said: "This time the emperor is on a tour of Huainan country, and he entrusted the escort to General Li Guang and his subordinates, so I would like to ask all my lords for advice."
Li Guang has a high reputation in the military camp, and he thought that his military achievements were extraordinary, but due to bad luck, other generals were enshrined as marquises one after another, but Li Guang was unable to be enshrined as a marquis all along. General, in charge of the garrison, although Li Guang also believed that he could beat the Huns back to Heshuo, but he felt a little bit uneasy in his heart, thinking that if he was a forward, he could also beat the Huns to hell.
At this time, Li Guang heard that Wei Qing mentioned himself first, and he, the great general, followed his own name instead, and he felt a lot more at ease.
Li Guang is a rough person, and his heart is not bad, but he is too impulsive, Wei Qing also knows this, so Wei Qing is very respectful, so as to avoid causing troubles, after all, he is loyal to the emperor. Fighting can be avoided.
Seeing Li Guang's happy face, Ying Zheng couldn't help smiling. Li Guang is so easy to understand, his happiness and displeasure can be seen on his face, and Liu Che's kindness to him can make all the unhappiness from the past go away. They were all forgotten, and they didn't hold any grudges at all. This was one of the reasons why Li Guang enjoyed such a high reputation in the army.
After Wei Qing finished speaking, he smiled at Li Guang and said, "General Li Guang is a veteran, so why not talk about it first."
Li Guangzheng was proud of Wei Qing being so respectful to him, and just about to speak, suddenly a person rushed in, everyone took a closer look, and the only one who could be so frizzy in the palace was the famous Huo Qubing in Liu Che's eyes.
Huo Qubing was one of the accompanying people, and everyone was here to discuss matters related to the entourage. Huo Qubing would naturally come, but he was caught by the little prince Liu Ju. By the time I got here, it had already started talking.
When Huo Qubing came in, he thought it would be embarrassing if he saw Wei Qing, and wondered if the other party remembered the camping a few days ago, but when he looked up, the first thing he saw was Ying Zheng.
Huo Qubing was startled, and suddenly thought that Yingzheng's current position is the prime minister, and he would definitely come to participate in the discussion. He had been thinking about Wei Qing, but he forgot about Yingzheng, and his heart skipped a beat.
To be honest, he was in a dilemma. After all, he had lived in the Han Dynasty for 14 years, and Liu Che, in particular, valued him very much. Before he reached the crown, he was recruited into the army and waited for Huo Qubing to grow up. In order to have his own cronies immediately, which courtier does not want to be valued by the king.
However, he is not a grateful person, and the king who has been loyal to him all his life is right in front of him, which really makes him a bit in a dilemma.
Although Liu Che is still very young, he is not as thoughtful as Ying Zheng in thinking about many things, and he is not as decisive as Ying Zheng when it comes to blood relatives, but it must be said that Liu Che is a king of the world, at least his thoughts, his decisions The policy can keep pace with Yingzheng.
The eyes of Huo Qubing and Ying Zheng collided, and they couldn't help but look away, and then quickly turned away.
Seeing Huo Qubing barging in irritably, Wei Qing wanted to say a few words to him so that he could remember it next time, but when he saw him, he was taken aback for a moment, then stared at Long Wohou in a daze, then with a complicated expression, he withdrew it The gaze, this series of reactions made Wei Qing a little puzzled. He didn't know that his nephew knew Long Lihou, or had any relationship.
Thinking this way, Wei Qing didn't know why there was a strange feeling in his chest, but Wei Qing didn't dare to delve into what it was for.
Wei Qing immediately withdrew his gaze and said, "Sit down quickly."
Huo Qubing responded and quickly sat down.
Li Guang then said: "The emperor's visit to Huainan country is nothing more than two points. Although I am at the border, Li Guang, I know it. This is the first... The emperor just issued an order to extend favor to the princes and kings, and accepted the princes and kings. Military power, presumably, is to show the emperor's military strength to the vassal states, so as to act as a deterrent."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone nodded one after another. They seemed to think that what Li Guang said was very reasonable. Li Guang was still proud and said with a smile: "Secondly, the emperor attaches great importance to filial piety, and the empress dowager has been too worried recently. It's good to play in the mountains and rivers to relieve your mood."
After Li Guang finished speaking, the others nodded again, Li Guang said: "So our escorts must follow these two, not only to ensure the emperor's safety, but also to make the old lady of the East Palace not feel tired. It is also very important to be able to restrain the princes and kings... the emperor is on tour, and the capital is empty, so we must be prepared to prevent the Xiongnu from harming the princes and kings."
After he finished speaking, everyone felt that it was very reasonable. Sure enough, it was reasonable for the emperor to transfer a veteran like Li Guang back. Li Guang was very thoughtful and almost didn't need others to supplement.
Bowang Hou Zhangqian said: "All of us have gone out with the emperor, who will be in charge in the capital?"
He looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Even the prime minister is not in the capital, so how do you comment on all the big and small matters?"
Yingzheng felt a little regretful. If he could stay in the capital, Liu Che's tour would not be a one-day event, so he would naturally seize this opportunity. If Liu An, the king of Huainan, failed to rebel, he would take Liu Che's lair in the capital. It must be a good taste. If Liu An, the king of Huainan, succeeded in rebelling, he would not be able to enter the capital according to Liu An's cautious nature.
However, Liu Che must take Ying Zheng on a tour. I don't know why, these days Liu Che suddenly promoted Ying Zheng on purpose. In the eyes of outsiders, this is a favor, but in Ying Zheng's heart, he is even more cautious. Well, it is impossible to lose pie in the sky, if Wei Qing is favored, the emperor will alienate Wei Zifu, this is to balance the Wei family, and the unexpected closeness and favor are actually a signal of suspicion.
How could someone as keen as Ying Zheng fail to catch such a signal.
Ying Zheng felt a little sorry for missing this opportunity to stay in the capital, but he didn't care about such an opportunity.
Ying Zheng said: "Han Anguo, the imperial historian, can preside over it."
Only then did Zhang Qian nod his head, and said, "Indeed, I heard that Han Anguo is very remarkable."
Li Guang said with a smile: "Bo Wanghou has just returned from the Western Regions, so naturally he doesn't know that this Han Anguo was the Prime Minister of the King of Liang back then. He can offer advice and fight wars, and the emperor thinks highly of him."
Wei Qing frowned, and said, "It's just that Dr. Yushi seems to be in poor health recently, and he may be a little tired to be the leader alone."
Naturally, Ying Zheng didn't want to worry about Liu Che's state affairs, and said, "Let's ask the emperor about this matter."
Because Huo Qubing saw Ying Zheng, he was always in a daze. Everyone was discussing at the same time, and he listened to what Li Guang said. He seemed to have nothing to add, so he was even more dazzled.
Wei Qing wanted him to talk about his opinion, but he turned his head and saw Huo Qubing sitting a little behind, staring at Ying Zheng obliquely in front of him, lost in thought.
That kind of look shouldn't belong to Huo Qubing. In Wei Qing's impression, Huo Qubing hasn't been so worried about anything in 14 years. That kind of complicated look makes people confused.
Ying Zheng had no intention of discussing with them how to escort them, so he naturally knew that Huo Qubing had been watching him all the time, if he could include Huo Qubing in his ranks, then he would be like a tiger with wings added.
The matter of accepting the military power of the princes and kings and pushing favors has already advanced the process of King Huainan's rebellion. Since King Huainan is about to rebel, Yingzheng will naturally have to speed up his own progress. Liu Che didn't have time to spare, so everything was easy to handle.
When Wei Qingshang settled the matter, everyone stood up and prepared to leave the palace. Ying Zheng deliberately took two steps down, walked side by side with Huo Qubing, and said with a light smile, "Taking advantage of the emperor's visit this time, we also have a lot of time to talk. .”
Huo Qubing glanced at him, before he could speak, Wei Qing called Huo Qubing from behind.
Ying Zheng smiled again, said goodbye to Huo Qubing, and left by himself.
Liu Che asked Wei Qing to go to Zhang Luo for a tour, so he went to the East Palace to pay his respects.
The empress dowager has been in poor health these days. When Tian Fu died, the empress dowager couldn't help being beaten. She was ill for a long time, and when it was serious, she couldn't get out of the couch. The imperial doctor knelt and waited at the gate of the East Palace every day.
When Liu Che entered the East Palace, the Empress Dowager was sitting on the phoenix seat with her eyes closed to rest her mind. Liu Che invited Ann and said, "My son is here to tell mother the good news. The son has already started preparations for the tour."
The empress dowager was a little happy when she heard this, and said: "I'm ready? When can I leave? I don't know if my body can hold it. I'm really old. I can't accept my old age...Who are you going to take? There are so many people. These are also lively, but don't drag on for too long."
The Empress Dowager talked to herself for quite a long time. Liu Che listened and knew that she was happy, so she talked more.
Liu Che said: "Don't worry about the patrol, you can start in a few days."
The empress dowager smiled on her face, and the smile became stronger when she heard it, but she suddenly seemed to think of something, and suddenly stopped her smile, saying: "Your Majesty, I want to tell you something."
Seeing her expression, Liu Che vaguely knew what the empress dowager wanted to say.
Sure enough, I heard the Empress Dowager say: "I have always felt uncomfortable about your uncle's death. Do you know, Your Majesty, that I can think of your uncle's illness when I close my eyes these days, which makes me feel extremely uncomfortable... "
As she spoke, she began to cough non-stop. The maid next to her hurriedly brought medicine and water. The Empress Dowager waved the maid away. Liu Che had no choice but to walk over and pat the Empress Dowager on the back.
Seeing Liu Che's actions, the empress dowager felt a little calmer, and said, "That Chen Yu, why is he still serving as the prime minister? Your majesty, don't you think that the death of Marquis Wu'an was caused by this Chen Yu bullying others! Even if Liu Dingguo, king of Yanshan, is heinous, what did you do to your uncle, he was chained and imprisoned several times, he is Marquis Wu'an, not a sinner!"
Liu Che said, "Mother, don't be angry."
The empress dowager said: "How can I not be angry...and let me marry my daughter to him? How is it possible!"
Liu Che said: "But you were the mother who wanted to marry the imperial sister to the prime minister at the time. Now that you have been granted the title of Marquis of Long Lu, if you don't marry the imperial sister to him, how can the imperial sister go out to meet people in the future?"
"No!" The Empress Dowager said: "Longli is still young and not suitable for marriage, anyway, I don't care, your uncle is gone, you can no longer marry Longli to Chen Yu."
In fact, Liu Che didn't want to marry his imperial sister to Ying Zheng. No matter what he thought about Ying Zheng in his heart, this Marquis Long Lu was too much like Chen Ajiao, no matter what he said or did, or how he acted. His own imperial sister married him.
In fact, Liu Che just wanted to shut up the empress dowager's mouth, and let her say both pros and cons.
Liu Che said: "I have to think about this matter again. My mother has already said it before. How can a word of gold be trusted?"
"Okay, I don't care about that. Longli is my daughter. I have the final say. If the emperor has something to do, he can go to it."
Liu Che didn't say any more, his goal had already been achieved, so he said: "If mother is tired, rest more, son will leave first, and once the tour is ready, I will send someone to invite mother to prepare."
The Empress Dowager nodded, closed her eyes, and waved her hand, indicating that Liu Che could go.
Princess Yang Xinchang came to the palace every three days because she wanted to marry Wei Qing. Wei Zifu wanted this marriage wholeheartedly, but Wei Qing refused to agree. Wei Zifu had no choice but to prevaricate Princess Yang Xinchang said that Wei Qing was busy, and he was busy with patrolling things when he just came back, so he had never been to Jiaofangdian, so he couldn't ask.
Princess Yang Xinchang is very smart, but because this question involves her own marriage, she feels too shy to say it, so she doesn't press too hard.
Princess Yang Xinchang came out of Jiaofang Hall again this day, saying she was chatting, but in fact she was asking Wei Qing if she agreed, but it was conceivable that she still returned without success.
Princess Yang Xinchang happened to see Ying Zheng from a distance. She still remembered that Ying Zheng ignored her overtures at the banquet that day, and she was angry for a moment. Lord Prime Minister."
When Ying Zheng saw Princess Yang Xin, there was no change on his face, he just sized her up and said with a smile, "Princess Chang came out of Jiaofang Palace?"
Princess Yang Xinchang's entry into the palace is nothing more than the Jiaofang Palace or the East Palace. These days, the Empress Dowager of the East Palace is not in good health, and she is upset because of Tian Fu's affairs. chat.
Yang Xin felt that it was no big deal for Ying Zheng to guess it, and said with a smile: "That's right, we are no match for the prime minister, the prime minister is busy with state affairs, we can only talk about it."
Ying Zheng said: "Princess Princess, don't underestimate yourself. If you ask about the situation in the world, no one knows better than Princess Princess."
Yang Xin laughed, but didn't answer.
Ying Zheng continued: "The eldest princess is the benefactor of Queen Wei and the general, but... it would be great if the relationship between the eldest princess and the general could be closer. Does the eldest think so?"
Yang Xin was brought up by him, his face blushed immediately, he gave Ying Zheng a look, and said, "I don't understand what the prime minister means."
Ying Zheng laughed, and deliberately sighed, "It's a pity..."
Yang Xin let out a "thump" in her heart. These days, she ran to the palace almost every day, but Wei Zifu kept silent about Wei Qing's affairs to him. Yang Xin had long felt that something was wrong. Now that Ying Zheng said this, she felt that Even more hopeless.
Ying Zheng watched her face gradually change color, and said: "Although the eldest princess is infatuated, it's just that the other party is really a lump of elm. It's okay to let him order soldiers on the battlefield, and let him share joys and sorrows with the soldiers, but it's not very good." I am afraid, in his heart, he still regards the eldest princess as a benefactor, as the former master, and reverence is reverence after all, and the word 'fear' is a barrier that cannot be bridged."
Yang Xin's face was already very ugly after he said each sentence, his tone was also cold, he couldn't laugh anymore, and said: "What does it have to do with the Prime Minister."
Ying Zheng said: "The eldest princess's important matter has nothing to do with the humble minister, but... Isn't the eldest princess here to chat with the humble minister? If the humble minister said something unpleasant, the eldest princess must not be surprised."
Yang Xin was so angry that he couldn't speak, and finally left without saying a word, flicking his sleeves.
Looking at the back of Princess Yang Xinchang going away, Ying Zheng couldn't help sneering, and came here to make fun of him if he had nothing to do.
These days, Yingzheng is discussing with Wei Qing and Li Guang about the tour, and he has to teach the little prince Liu Shi to go in and out of the palace more frequently. people are practicing singing and dancing.
Ying Zheng saw Li Yan sharp-eyed. Li Yan was wearing a soldier's clothes at this time. Because Wei Qing had won the battle recently, Yuefu also knew that the emperor worked hard on the war, and the singing and dancing were all related to the war.
Li Yan was expelled from Ye Ting, but the people in the palace are cautious, a woman who falls out of favor overnight, but after all, she is a person who has been in the books of Ye Ting, may be favored one day and one night, who can fathom the emperor's mind.
So no one was going to make things difficult for Li Yan, they all had a heart, and Li Yan returned to the Yuefu, at most it was just someone talking behind her back.
When Ying Zheng saw Li Yan wearing men's clothes, his mind suddenly flashed, as if he thought of something, he smiled and walked over.
When everyone saw that it was the prime minister coming, they saluted one after another. Li Yan saw that it was Ying Zheng, and her face turned pale with fright. After all, her brother Li Yannian was talking to the empress dowager in front of the East Palace, saying that the emperor and Long Worry is not clean, so he ended up in today's field.
Li Yan is just a woman who wants to climb up. Although she has many eyes, she is afraid when she is scared. Because she has suffered a loss, she is very afraid of Ying Zheng. It's time to sieve the chaff.
Seeing her trembling all the time, Ying Zheng couldn't help sneering, it's not easy to be able to hang out in the palace with such a little courage.
Ying Zheng asked everyone to go down, but Li Yan saw that she was left alone, and she was even more afraid.
Ying Zheng sat on the railing between the pavilions and said, "Do you still recognize me?"
Li Yan hurriedly knelt down, kowtowed and said: "Your servant... The servant will naturally recognize the Prime Minister."
Ying Zheng smiled and said: "You should be a talented person. If you play well and win the emperor's favor, you can be a wife. But now you have ended up in this field. Have you ever thought about why?"
When Li Yan heard this, she felt that Ying Zheng really came to make things difficult for her, and Sha Kang trembled even more, saying: "Slave... Slave doesn't dare anymore, I beg the prime minister to spare me!"
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, pretending to be surprised, and said, "Where did I say that? When did I say I was going to make things difficult for you? I just want to promote you."
"This……"
Li Yan was at a loss, obviously not believing that Ying Zheng would be so kind.
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "I can't lie to you about a showgirl, can I?"
"But...but..."
Seeing her timid look, Ying Zheng sneered, and said, "I just want to ask you, do you want your name to be put back in the Ye Ting book?"
Li Yan gritted her teeth, and said simply: "Slaves naturally want to!"
Ying Zheng said: "Naturally, what I say and what you do, if you do well, I will let the past go, and you will also be favored by the emperor."
Li Yan said: "It's really possible to do this, the servants are naturally willing."
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "The Emperor is going to visit Huainan soon, you should know about it."
"I know." Li Yan quickly responded.
"Going all the way, you also need to relieve boredom, don't you? If you can accompany you, are you afraid that you won't be favored by the emperor?"
When Li Yan heard this, her eyes lit up immediately, and she quickly kowtowed and said: "The slaves and servants are all under the command of the Prime Minister."
Li Yan is very grateful, Ying Zheng didn't say what he asked Li Yan to do, he just said that he would accompany her during the tour, and the rest will be known later.
Ying Zheng stood up and was about to leave. When he got out of the small pavilion, he suddenly turned around to look at Li Yan, squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "When you go with me, remember to bring your outfit with you."
Li Yan was a little puzzled, looked down at her clothes, but still nodded.
Preparations for the tour were quick, Wei Qing and Li Guang worked together, one was cautious and the other had more experience, so it was naturally done quickly.
The battle of Yujia is very powerful, and all the princes and kings have heard about it before they started, some of them are holding the mentality of watching the show, and some are just watching from the sidelines.
Liu Che was not in a hurry, and asked people to put more straw mats on the empress dowager's car. The journey was smooth and not afraid of slowness. Anyway, it was a trip to the mountains and rivers, just to see the beautiful scenery of rivers and mountains.
On this tour, Liu Che did not bring any of the concubines from the harem, not even Wei Zifu from the Jiaofang Palace. When all the local officials knew about this, they were all eager to try, thinking that if they could recommend beauties to send Give it to the emperor, and my future life will be fine.
Liu An, the king of Huainan, heard that the emperor's royal driver was leaving. He was very excited at first. As long as Liu Che entered his Huainan palace, he would not even think about getting out alive. , Let the Huainan King wait and wait, the so-called one-stop effort and then three exhaustion, those daredevils bought by Liu Qian have long lost their interest in waiting.
Just when Huainan King was getting impatient, Liu Che's royal driver finally arrived at the boundary of Huainan.
Liu Che and his party were heavily armored to open the way, guarded by elite soldiers, and because the Empress Dowager could not be tired, they walked very slowly. By the time they reached the border of Huainan, it was getting late.
Ying Zheng was riding on a horse, talking to Bo Wang Hou Zhang Qian, when a servant ran over and said, "Prime Minister, Your Majesty invites you to ride."
Ying Zheng reined in the horse, and looked back at the carriage. He had just entered Huainan, and Liu Che suddenly thought of something.
Yingzheng turned the horse's head, reined in to the carriage, got off the horse, and the servant drew up the curtain to help Yingzheng into the carriage.
Seeing him coming up, Liu Che smiled and said, "Honor Longyou, look, Huainan is really rich, and the water is so clear."
Ying Zheng knew that he was definitely not just chatting when he asked him to come here, so he smiled and said: "What the emperor said is very true."
Liu Che lifted the curtain to look out, and said, "Where is this?"
Ying Zheng said: "Go back to Your Majesty, it's Wangjiang Pavilion."
Liu Che glanced outside again, then sat upright and looked at Ying Zheng, and said with a smile: "It's getting late, I won't go into the city today, I visited Jiangting well, we'll stay overnight with Wangjiangting today."
Ying Zheng was startled when he heard this, and looked up at Liu Che, but he didn't expect that Liu Che would not go into the city.
As Liu Che spoke, he said loudly to the outside: "Stop it, we will be staying at Wangjiang Pavilion today, and all the specifications will be handled according to the army's camping. I am going to live a life as a soldier."
While talking, he got out of the car, turned around and stretched out his hand, signaling to help Ying Zheng get down.
Ying Zheng looked at his outstretched hand, lowered his eyes, and let Liu Che help him out of the car.
Ying Zheng followed him, and when Liu Che praised the beautiful scenery of Wangjiang Pavilion, Liu Che said: "I have stayed in the palace for too long, I should have come to see the great rivers and mountains, but it is not too late now, look Look at this water, how beautiful it is... I have always wanted to live the life of a soldier, eat and live with the soldiers, so that I can feel the hardships and hardships. Today I want to eat the wild game brought by the generals. Lazy."
Liu Che said it very easily, and the soldiers laughed when they heard it. The atmosphere was quite good, but Wei Qing and Li Guang looked at each other, and Ying Zheng was also a little surprised.
I have to say that Ying Zheng was really surprised. He underestimated Liu Che, but Liu Che had already figured out how to deal with King Huainan.
Stopping halfway and not entering the city, regardless of whether King Huainan made a small move, it must have disrupted his plan. What's more, Liu Che joked that everything should be in accordance with the army's specifications. What is the army's specifications? At two o'clock, soldiers took turns patrolling and guarding, and even a bird could not fly into the barracks, let alone an assassin.
Liu Che also asked Wei Qing and Li Guanghuo to eat the wild game that Huo Qubing personally brought in. Even if Huainan King poisoned him, he would have nowhere to go.
And all of this, Liu Che was laughing, and he took two or three strokes. If a person can resolve the crisis around him with a few jokes, it can't be said that he is not powerful or smart.
Liu Che rested for a while, the soldiers moved quickly, set up the tent, set up the bed, and invited Liu Che to rest.
Liu Che said with a smile: "Let's set up a bonfire. It's such a good place. I'm going to sit here tonight and experience the feeling of being surrounded by heaven and earth."
Li Guang responded and hurriedly asked people to build a bonfire.
Liu Che patted the place around him, motioned for Ying Zheng to sit down as well, and said with a smile, "Look at this place, Prime Minister, how is it?"
Ying Zheng said: "Wealthy and comfortable."
"Okay, what a word of ease," Liu Che said while touching his chest with his hand, and said, "It really touched my heart."
Liu Che looked around, saw the soldiers busy but orderly, couldn't help laughing and said: "It's good to be at ease, the world is peaceful, and I won't worry about this or that every day."
While talking, someone moved something past Liu Che's eyes, Liu Che narrowed his eyes, and suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
The man was startled, his whole body was trembling, and he quickly knelt down with a "plop", his head lowered.
Liu Che said: "Look up, I see that you look familiar."
The man was so frightened that his soul flew away, and he didn't dare not look up, so he had no choice but to dawdle and raise his head up.
Liu Che immediately squinted his eyes, his face darkened, and said, "Who told you to follow me!"
The person kneeling on the ground almost fell to the ground in fright, it was undoubtedly Li Yan who was wearing the soldier's clothes.
After listening to Ying Zheng's words, Li Yan followed in men's attire. She thought she could please the emperor, but she didn't expect to be like this. She hurriedly cried aggrievedly, "Yes... the prime minister sent the servants here."
Liu Che didn't expect Li Yan to say that, and glanced sideways at Ying Zheng, who didn't deny it, with a calm face, and said with a smile: "It's true that the humble minister made the claim, but the humble minister is also sharing your majesty's worries. .”
"Oh?"
Liu Che stared at Ying Zheng for a while, but didn't speak anymore. Ying Zheng didn't feel flustered, and said slowly: "I was really afraid that the emperor's journey would be too monotonous, so I called a few people from the Yuefu on my own initiative, and set up a set up at night. With a bonfire, you can let the Yuefu come to sing and play music to add to the fun."
"Really." Liu Che's eyes still did not leave Ying Zheng, he kept staring at Ying Zheng, as if he wanted to see through him, but Ying Zheng didn't shy away from it or be afraid, and he didn't even look panicked, as if he didn't seem to be in the slightest. flaw.
Liu Che said: "Okay, then according to what the prime minister said, wait for the bonfire to be built."
After Liu Che said that, he stopped looking at Ying Zheng, and instead turned his head to look at Li Yan. Suddenly his tone became gentle, and he said with a smile, "Why are you dressed like this?"
Li Yan was a little flattered, she didn't expect the emperor to speak so softly, she immediately replied cowardly and softly: "The emperor subdued Shuofang, his power shocked the whole world, the servants specially prepared songs and dances in this respect, so they dressed like this."
Liu Che nodded and said, "It's hard for you to have a heart."
Li Yan was even more ecstatic, and quickly said in a soft voice: "The emperor's praise really makes the slaves panic, this is the job of the slaves, and besides, it was also thought of by the sisters of Yuefu."
Liu Che and Li Yan talked for a while, but if you asked what they said, there was really not much substance, it was just gossip, but gossip meant that the emperor was in a good mood, which meant that Li Yan was likely to be killed again. The emperor valued it and re-registered Ye Ting.
Ying Zheng's original intention was exactly like this...
Recently, Liu Che's hands and feet on Ying Zheng have increased significantly. Ying Zheng hates these small actions. The tingling and pleasure that can make people lose their minds affects Ying Zheng's judgment.
Li Yan is not a scary character, on the contrary, she can be used. She looks somewhat similar to Empress Chen, that is to say, she looks somewhat similar to her current self. Wearing men's clothes, at first glance, she is still somewhat similar. The same place, but more feminine.
Ying Zheng wanted to use Li Yan to paralyze Liu Che. Anyway, Liu Che missed Empress Chen. If Li Yan was similar, he could naturally get away.
Ying Zheng felt that he was right, and Liu Che chatted with Li Yan as expected.
It was getting dark, and Li Guang had already asked someone to set up a bonfire. Liu Che stood up, patted his clothes, and said, "Let's go."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, but this time it was towards Li Yan. Li Yan was so surprised that she couldn't help herself, she hurriedly stretched out her hand shyly, and was held and pulled by Liu Che. Pretending to be panicked, he knelt down and confessed.
Liu Che pulled her up from the ground, and said with a smile: "Don't be so strict, go, let me see your singing and dancing."
Li Yan responded softly, and followed Liu Che to the campfire.
Ying Zheng looked at the backs of the two and squinted his eyes. His goal had been achieved, and Liu Che's "sincerity" to Empress Chen was just as Ying Zheng thought, it was really vulnerable. What could he say to an emperor? True or false?
It's just that Ying Zheng inexplicably felt that his breathing was stagnant, and his chest felt a little uncomfortable. For some reason, Ying Zheng didn't investigate further, and walked over.
Huo Qubing was holding a thick twig covered with wild game and roasting it on the fire. When he saw them coming over, he said with a smile, "This is from General Li Guang himself. I'll let you have a taste after I roast it."
Wei Qing said: "Qubing, don't be too big or small."
Liu Che waved his hands and said with a smile, "You can do whatever you want today, you don't need to talk about any rules, if Qubing is happy, let him go, you uncle, don't ask him to be so demanding."
Only then did Wei Qing respond, and Huo Qubing took a look at Wei Qing who was standing in the distance through the bright and dark bonfire. Perhaps it was too dark for Huo Qubing to see Wei Qing's expression clearly.
After that day, they didn't even say a complete sentence, Huo Qubing pretended not to care, Wei Qing didn't say anything, and it has been so embarrassing until now.
A servant laid out mats on the ground, and placed the good wine brought from the palace and the melons and fruits offered by the places he visited all the way. Liu Che sat down and motioned for everyone to take their seats.
Liu Che said to Li Yan: "Don't you have a song and dance for everyone to watch, go ahead."
"promise."
Li Yan responded with a gentle voice, got up and walked over, and the maids of the Yuefu also came over. This song and dance was rehearsed for a long time. They knew that the emperor was very interested in fighting the Huns because of subduing Shuofang, so they prepared sword dancing .
Li Yan was dressed in men's clothes, surrounded by crowds, and danced lightly with a wooden sword in her hand. She said it was a sword dance, but in fact it had no strength at all.
Liu Che looked at Li Yan, who was dancing lightly, with good eyesight. He seemed to be very focused, and Liu Che's eyes were very bright against the bright and dark bonfire.
Ying Zheng glanced at Liu Che vaguely from the corner of his eye, but Liu Che seemed to notice it immediately. He turned his head to look at Ying Zheng. His eyes, like lacquer spots, seemed to be bottomless, but his tone seemed to have not noticed Ying Zheng. Looking at him with the same expression, he said with a smile: "Long Luhou, what do you think of this sword dance?"
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Of course it's good."
Liu Che nodded, looked directly at Ying Zheng again, and then looked away.
Yingzheng's heart suddenly skipped a beat, Liu Che's eyes were too complicated, and it was difficult for Yingzheng to analyze what the other party meant. He asked a question, and he replied that there was no answer. The following is up.
After Li Yan danced the sword, Liu Che beckoned her to come over, Li Yan hurried over with small steps, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty."
Liu Che pulled her into his arms, Li Yan shyly leaned on Liu Che, Liu Che said with a smile: "This sword dancer is so soft, it will teach the generals a joke."
Li Yan pouted and said: "The emperor is making fun of slaves."
Beside them are all rough soldiers, and they all burst out laughing when they saw this scene.
