Big Han Weiyang

After leaving Chang'an, head east first.

On the seventh day of July, we spent more than two hundred miles away from Beijing in the suburbs.This forest is exactly where Liu Che and I were assassinated.

After drinking and celebrating with the soldiers at night, since Juli Lake is familiar with this place, I asked him to take me back to the old place.

At that time, the tree where I wrote for help, the words on it were burnt and disappeared.Presumably it was the actions of those two sergeants that made the journey back to Chang'an even more difficult for the three of us.

Although half of the tree was burned, the other half was still growing tenaciously, with thick and lush leaves.

The bonfires in the distance continued to burn together, and the soldiers were still making noise.In the forest, the chirping insects whispered, the tired birds flew away, and there was a little bit of green light, flickering.

Now there is only Juli Lake by my side, and I only bring a sword, but I don't have the slightest fear of the past.

I had a vague feeling that perhaps, as the Taifu said, those soldiers in the distance were my forces, my minions.With them, I am unarmed and safe, so why do I need to ride a horse and hold a sword and show off my bravery.

In the dark night, the stars converge into the Milky Way.

Although he and Liu Che couldn't meet each other, they were bathed in the same starlight.

I patted Juli Lake on the shoulder: "Let's go back."

"Yes." Juli Lake said.

"Guri Lake, I remember that you and I met for the first time here. Do you miss your family? I allow you to go home." I smiled.

He raised his head and looked at me quietly with his blue eyes: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness, Gouli Lake doesn't need to go home." He spoke Chang'an official dialect with a correct accent, and even the awkward local accent was gone.

"Okay," I smiled, "Now Weiyang Palace is your home, and the horseback is your home. In the future, the widow will give you a bigger home."

When I got back to the camp, I hesitated for a long time, but I went around the campfire and went to Liu Rong's carriage, and asked with a smile, "Sir, today is my birthday, do you have anything for me?"

There was no reply for a while.

The eunuch serving Liu Rong leaned out and shook his head.

The joy faded immediately, and I said softly, "Sir, you have rested? The widow will not bother you."

After leaving the suburbs of Beijing, I went through Henan, Yingchuan, and then to Peixian.Gaozu started his family here.

I also grew up on horseback. In the palace, I was restricted by the rules and could only ride in a carriage. When I went outside, I was on horseback all the way.

After half a month, I recognized the soldiers of Hu Qijun and Habayashi Army with familiarity.

The two armies are still small in size.Most of the Habayashi Army are the sons of soldiers who died in battle, or orphans left behind by looting around the Han Dynasty.There are 600 people, and Li is in charge of the household.

The Hu cavalry army is composed of Qiang and Hu people, with a total of 400 people, and is in charge of Juli Lake.

When I first met Gouli Lake, he was not talkative.Now that I have gotten in touch with him more, I found that his temperament is taciturn and soft.

Coupled with the beautiful appearance, wearing an iron armor makes her look slender and beautiful, as graceful as jade.The soldiers of the Hu cavalry army came from the prairie where the folk customs are fierce, and they would rather be under his jurisdiction than they would listen to Li Danghu's words.

I am a little worried about Juli Lake.Li Danghu said that he is reliable regardless of his ability or character.Looking soft now, it will be different after seeing blood a few times on the battlefield and arousing some ferocity.Let me just believe it.

Han said that he was wearing a light armor and a white robe, riding a tall brown horse and falling half behind me.

If Han Yan's beauty made most women feel ashamed, Han said it was the winter sun, clean and white, bright and soft, not dazzling at all.When it shines on people, it is slightly warm.

That kiss, which I didn't pay much attention to, seemed to affect him deeply.Although he tried his best to be as calm and composed as before, when he faced me, his cheeks were flushed and he was nervous.

I looked a little funny.When Liu Che and I were 12 years old, there was a special person in the palace to teach what is the harmony of yin and yang.He also gave us various ancient books for our reference, among which there is even the Tao of Longyang.

For us, it's as simple as eating and drinking.

Even women at his age have already experienced human affairs.

And Han said... I don't know how the Han family taught it, I'm afraid I haven't met a woman in this life, so I'm so shy and at a loss.

But I will save the sarcasm for now, when he has a wife and son in the future, his behavior at this time can be used to laugh at him for the rest of his life.

The folk customs in Peixian County are very simple and unsophisticated. Thousands of soldiers lived and ate in the county lieutenant's barracks along the way, and did not disturb the people.Just like this, they were very satisfied, praised the discipline of the king's teacher, and worshiped the sage of the emperor.

Our Haohaotangtang group left the county, and on the way there were many common people who saw us off.

When I am on tour, I still spend two to three hours a day listening to the lectures of the accompanying scholars.

Most of the time, old gentlemen came to my car to give lectures.

Only Liu Rong, whom I call weak and not able to see the wind, always goes to his carriage in person.This inevitably made other people criticize Liu Rong.

Some people satirized themselves, Mr. Li was full of illnesses at a young age, but I am so old and healthy, I am really ashamed.

Someone who knew that I lost my cloak when I first saw Liu Rong in the palace, and someone who met Liu Rong again said, how outstanding is Mr. Li's talent.It was his face that made the prince unable to let go.

There is no doubt about Liu Rong's beauty.His mother was Li Ji, who was once the most beautiful in Liugong.

Fortunately, I haven't been with Liu Rong for too long. When I came out, I was neatly dressed, and everyone was only dubious about the rumors.

I got into Liu Rong's carriage.

It is spacious and comfortable inside, which is better than the prince's car.

The gauze curtains are rolled up, and the window rails are patterned with green locks.The car is decorated with gold carvings and jade decorations, and the pearls shine.There is an incense burner on a table with animal patterns, and there is a faint white smoke around it.

The fragrance is faint and cool, inhaled into the lungs, with a little sweetness.

In the carriage, there are two steps of tanchi, a light and soft couch, surrounded by beautiful jade and decorated with algae embroidery.Through the light smoke, Liu Rong was wearing a green shirt and was lazily leaning on the couch.

He hadn't tied his hair yet, and the black hair was scattered behind him, and a few strands went around his ears, casting fine shadows on his face.

He propped his head in one hand, and held a scroll of silk in the other. He seemed to be seeing but not seeing. Qing Ling's sleeves were limply falling into a pile, revealing his slender wrists.

The eyes are like water in a deep pool, and the eyebrows fade into the mountains.It's hard to describe all kinds of romantic stories.

I hardly dared to make a sound, lest I disturb the mountain god in the nap car.

"The crown prince is here." He raised his eyes lazily and put down the silk book.

"Mr. hasn't combed his hair yet, so it's good to let the widow do the work for me." I lowered my voice, always feeling that if my voice was too loud, I would startle him away.

He glanced at me with a half-smile, and said, "Then, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

My heart was relieved, I took off my shoes to the couch, took out a jade comb from the lacquer dowry, carefully avoided his skin, and picked up his black hair.

It is really not an easy task to tie his hair. His hair is as smooth as silk, and it always slips through his fingers inadvertently.He called His Royal Highness, and my hard work came to naught again.

"Where is your highness going next?"

"Donghai County, I plan to look at the sea there; after that is the State of Lu, I want to understand the difference between Confucius' hometown and other countries; after that, there are Taishan County, Qi State, Hejian State, Dai County..."

"Have you forgotten, Your Highness?" he interrupted me, "Your tour is to know the sufferings of the people, not to satisfy your selfish desire to travel around the mountains and rivers."

"What sir said is," our conversation is always without any family affection, and my hands are entangled with black hair, "I want to have fun and inspect the two sides, it is really greedy."

I looked at the bronze mirror pretending not to care, and tentatively said: "After Daijun, it is Yanmen."

In the mirror, he looked down quietly.The melon seed face is beautiful and elegant, with a youthful appearance.

"Because the widow heard that Zhidu, who was ordered to be executed by the queen mother, did not die. Instead, he served as the county guard in Yanmen. The widow wanted to go and see, what kind of superpower did Zhidu have? maintain."

I couldn't ask Liu Rong what happened in the Lieutenant's Mansion that year.Seeing Zhidu this time, I can get some news by making indirect remarks, so I won't be in a constant state of anxiety.If you have the opportunity, you can also find out his faults and vent your anger for Liu Rong.

I was so clumsy that I didn't pull my hair up for a long time.

He didn't make any response to this, but responded with a slightly cold smile: "His Royal Highness is a man of heaven and glory. I'm afraid he has never done such a thing as tying his hair. Let me do it myself."

I took a step back, suppressed my bitterness, and said softly, "Brother Liu Rong, can I ask Han Shuo to come up and replace me?"

"This minister is not of royal blood, Your Highness is careful," he said distantly, "Your Highness is exhausted today, and this minister will not stay for long."

It was not the first time that she was pushed away indifferently.I stood there blankly for a while, picked up my clothes and went down the steps, and when I opened the curtain, I said dryly, "Sir, take a good rest, the widow asked them to bring some meals. You...don't let yourself get so angry."

"Stop." I told the driver.Han said he saw me coming out and drove over from behind the team.

I walked all the way, thinking all the way, where to entrust Liu Che, so that he can be closer to Chang'an and rich.

Been through a lot of places these days.I have some understanding of people's livelihood, local customs, diet, farming, county government, and water affairs.They also borrowed the local army to jointly wipe out several waves of entrenched bandits.

Li Danghu, as half of Juli Lake's master, gradually trained him to look good.After a month, no matter whether it was Juli Lake or the thousand young soldiers, the young and immature faces showed some firmness and calmness.

Zhidu is quite talented in military affairs. Since he became the prefect, the Huns dare not enter the pass again.

Before arriving in Yanmen County, I got the news.It is said that just after I left in July, Jingzhong received a letter from the Weng Lord, in which the Weng Lord complained to the Queen Mother Dou, saying that she married for the country, but all of them took the initiative to kill the Huns at the border. In addition to leaving home, she was also hostile by the Huns, and her life was quite bitter.

Empress Dowager Dou was furious when she learned that Zhidu was not dead, and ordered Emperor Jing to kill the person who had caused her two grandchildren.Emperor Jing reluctantly agreed.

The person who delivered the decree did not know whether it had arrived or not.

This news made me a little bit depressed.But in the end, I decided that I must take a look before giving up.Even if they are all dead, it would be good for the soldiers in the army to get acquainted with the Huns at the border.

At the end of August, the autumn rain began to rain, which lasted for more than ten days and did not stop until mid-September.A group of us entered Yanmen County and learned that Zhidu had committed suicide.I think he deserves it, but there is no lack of regret.

After all, he was a strong general who once made the Huns fear.

Originally, I only planned to stop in Yanmen for a while.

We walked through the middle abdomen, went to the frontier fortress, and met Feng Jing, the new prefect.

Feng Jing was over forty years old, with the appearance of a literati, resolute and silent, a little stagnant and not very tactful in his life.

We were still drinking the wind wine at the side camp, and suddenly the mountains shook.In the middle of the night, Feng Jing's personal guards came to tell me that the back road was blocked by mountains and rocks, and we couldn't go back for the time being.
