Xie Xiang

Ganquan Palace is next to Ganquan Mountain, half of the palace and garden are built on the hillside, and most of them are on the flat ground under the mountain.Since the former Qin Dynasty, there have been no traces of people in this area, and there are no residential houses in a radius of hundreds of miles.

Since it is uninhabited, Liu Zao originally thought that if he left the palace gate, he would have to be desolate. Unexpectedly, although there are no people, the road is wide and the wilderness is bright.

Although Hu Ao was also confined in the palace, he knew so much that he could tell where Xie Xiang's mansion was built.

"This is Xie's other business. It's not far from Ganquan Palace. It takes half an hour to get there." Hu Ao replied.

He was also riding on a horse, half a horse behind the little emperor, and there were more than thirty attendants behind them, all of them were dressed as Habayashiro. Lieutenant Lin, two horses behind the little emperor, was always on guard.

Liu Zao reined in the reins, the horse took two steps on the spot, Fang stopped slowly, lowered his head, and gnawed a few mouthfuls of fresh grass beside the road.

"Where does the general live?" Liu Zao asked again.

Why did you ask about the general coming?Hu Ao was puzzled, but he replied in detail: "The residence of the general is not far from that of Prime Minister Xie. Not only the prime minister and the general, but also many ministers live there."

Hu Ao explained the terrain to her.

The ministers built villas in this area began in the reign of Emperor Wu. It is close to the forbidden place of the palace, so people cannot live in it, and it is inconvenient to enter the palace if it is far away. Except for Ganquan Palace, the scenery in the north is the most beautiful and cool. The higher ones all live in that area.

Liu Zao understood, nodded, pulled the reins again, and said, "Lead the way."

There are more than thirty people, which can be described as mighty.

After walking five miles away from the palace, people gradually became visible.Mostly some young men met for a horse race, and they also saw a cart. A little girl, about the same age as Liu Zao, was sitting in the cart. Two maidservants followed beside the cart, and several servants fell behind the cart.

Liu Zao had something to do, so he didn't pay attention to this woman, and rode on a horse, and ran past her, but he didn't know that the woman looked at her back, blushed suddenly, and kept watching her go away. Fang asked the servant girl beside him, "Whose young man is this?"

The servant girl couldn't answer.

Liu Zao rode his horse until he arrived at the area Hu Ao mentioned, and he saw a series of mansions.She beckoned back, Hu Ao drove forward, Liu Zao waited for him to approach, Fang asked, "Where does Master Huan live?"

Hu Ao was stunned: "Huan, Master Huan?"

Liu Zao nodded, and asked again: "I want to see the disease, where does Master Huan live?"

"Your Majesty, isn't Your Majesty going to visit and thank you?" Hu Ao trembled.

Liu Zao smiled, but Hu Ao hurriedly lowered his head because of his pale face, not daring to meet her eyes.

Liu Zao knew that if she said she wanted to see Huan Kuang, she might not even be able to leave the palace.She needs an opportunity to contact courtiers.Huan Kuang's sickness was her opportunity.

Hu Aoqiu couldn't guess why His Majesty saw Master Huan at this time, but he instinctively felt that His Majesty must have some plans for this trip.

The emperor is a puppet.The so-called puppets have to live in peace, know nothing, do nothing, just occupy that position.But which emperor is willing to be a puppet.Hu Ao knew that His Majesty would take some action, but he didn't expect this day to come so suddenly.

The little emperor did not urge him, but looked around, as if admiring the scenery.

After Hu Ao glanced behind him, there were more than thirty Habayashiro.At the beginning of the establishment of Yulin, Emperor Wu used mostly the sons of good families from the six counties, and some orphans in order to build a private army.Up to now, Habayashi has become the son of an official, a promotion rank.More than thirty people, I don't know how many eyes and ears were pressed.

Spring and Yin Jian were not far away, Hu Ao didn't dare to stand out, but he looked at Liu Zao and sighed secretly - since he has arrived here, even if he refuses to lead the way, His Majesty must have a good plan.

Huan Kuang is the teacher of the emperor, and the court feels sorry for not being able to treat him.His residence is naturally also in this area.

Liu Zao asked someone to knock on the door, and an old servant came out from the door. Seeing them, he asked doubtfully, "I don't know who Xiaolang is?"

Huan Kuang was sick, and there were many people who saw the disease, but it was the beginning of the illness. After two months, except for a few disciples who entered the house, they often came to serve the sick, and few people came to the door.

Hu Ao stepped forward and said, "This is Huanzi's student, I'm here to visit."

"Student?" The old servant sized Liu Zao up and down.

Liu Zao smiled, took out the herring pendant bestowed by Emperor Wu from his sleeve, and handed it to him, saying, "Master Huan will know who I am when he sees this jade pendant."

Hearing this, the old servant looked serious, and saw that the jade pendant was shiny and smooth, like a green lake, surrounded by warm light, and knew that this young man had an extraordinary background.He took the jade pendant with both hands, respectfully said "wait a moment", then went inside to report, not forgetting to close the door again when he went.

When the darkened door opened again, it was not the old servant who came in, but a man who had been standing for a year. The man was wearing a high crown, a robe with rich sleeves, and walked in a hurry.

When he saw Liu Zao, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Your Majesty is ill and cannot welcome you in person. I beg for forgiveness."

"I came here due to illness, how can I make Master Huan come out to meet you?" Liu Zao said with a smile.

Only then did the man stand up, step sideways, and respectfully invite the little emperor to enter: "Chen Huanting, take the post of Dong Cao of the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Liu Zao followed him in and said, "But you're at home on leave?"

Huan Kuang had seven sons, and Huan Ting was his fifth son. Although he was not the eldest son, he was the only one who served nearby in Beijing.The father is sick, and if he is a son, if he cannot tell the sick to serve the sick, he will be criticized by others.

So Huanting replied, "Exactly."

Liu Zao nodded and followed him inside without talking to him.

Huan Ting was also relieved to see that she did not talk about the court affairs.

Huan's house is very spacious, with corridors on both sides built against the wall, and a stone road in the middle, leading directly to the front of the hall, so it looks very deep.

Huan Kuang was ill and couldn't get up, so he didn't go to the hall and went straight to the backyard.

In front of the main room, Huanting said respectfully, "Please enter the room."

Liu Zao was in front of the door, took off his shoes and entered in white socks.

Huan Kuang was lying on the bed, looking at the herring pendant tremblingly in his hand.His eyes were cloudy and their light was dim.Since Liu Zao was ill, he often gave gifts and medicines, but he was not very sincere.

She doesn't like this old gentleman because he is obstinate, old-fashioned and obstinate. Maybe it's not his fault, but she is too utilitarian to concentrate on her studies.Therefore, the harmony between the two is due to Liu Zao pretending to be obedient and obedient, and pretending to like Confucianism.

I don't know if Huan Kuang guessed that she had a different heart, but he actually liked this disciple who didn't have a deep relationship between teacher and student.

When he saw Liu Zao, he raised his body and wanted to show respect.Liu Zao hurriedly stepped forward, supported him, and gently put him back on the bed, saying: "My teacher is sorry."

Huan Kuang's hands were trembling slightly due to his old age and illness, he brought the herring pendant to Liu Zao's eyes, and said with an air of gossamer: "This jade pendant is precious, Your Majesty wants it, ten million, take care of it."

"When the fish is in the algae, its head is awarded. When the king is in the pickaxe, how can he drink wine." It describes the scene of peace in the world and the joy of the monarch and the people.

When Emperor Wu recited this sentence and bestowed it on the emperor's grandson the herring, he might not have had high hopes, but now that the emperor's grandson shoulders the great cause of the Han Dynasty, this poem has a profound meaning.

Liu Zao took the herring pendant and solemnly said, "No."

Huan Kuang watched her put the jade pendant into her sleeve and kept it safe, before he said slowly: "Your Majesty is here for what, I know..."

After coming out of Huan Zhai, Liu Zao fulfilled his wish, but his heart was even heavier.She did not expect that Master Huan was willing to help her.

She came here today to change a husband.Master Huan was seriously ill and couldn't stand the fatigue, so the emperor had to let him out.It's just that who can be the emperor's teacher is another discussion.

Liu Zao has a candidate in mind, but she speaks lightly, and no one will listen to her edict.Therefore, if you want to push this person to this position, you must have Master Huan to help you.

After walking around the sick bed, the sky seemed bluer when I got out.

Liu Zao looked up and saw a group of wild geese flying across the sky.She looked back at the door of Huan Zhai, feeling a little confused and grateful.

Master Huan was usually serious with her, she thought he didn't like her, and now that he came here, it might be a waste of words, she didn't want Master Huan to agree without waiting for her to speak.

It can be seen that what a person does on the outside is not necessarily consistent with what he really thinks.

She still has to learn to sharpen her eyes so that she can see through people's hearts.

Thinking about it, Liu Zao got on his horse, and at the same time thought that if there was a chance in the future, he would have to return to Master Huan.

The horse rattled.There is no need to rush back.Liu Zao also wanted to take a look at the surrounding scenery.The scenery is really beautiful, if you can have a banquet here, accompanied by fine wine and music, it must be very elegant.

Too bad she wasn't interested.

The news that she came to see Huan Kuang must have spread, I don't know how Xie Xianghui will react.

Liu Zao seemed very calm, first concealed it from the palace, went out of the palace privately, and deliberately mentioned thanking the prime minister, which made Hu Ao think that she was going to the prime minister's mansion, and then caught off guard and showed her intention, which caught people off guard. A quarrel would attract countless people, and it was too late to stop her.
