To the north of Dahan is an endless vast grassland. Since the Qin Dynasty unified the world, the ethnic minorities in the north have harassed the people in the Central Plains from time to time, but they have been very restrained. Without him, the Qin army is just fierce. Although Qin Fa was harsh and harsh, it was not only harsh on his own people, but even more harsh on his enemies. If there is a large-scale attacker, they will all be hunted down for thousands of miles.

However, after the chaos in the world, the people in the border areas bordering ethnic minorities fell into the situation of "people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat". Many families are ruined, and many families are ruined, and they have seen their parents, wives and children die tragically, or their families are slaughtered.

The Huns have lived on the grassland for generations, and they have a reckless nature in their bones. After tasting the sweetness of plundering the Han people, he was out of control and regarded this kind of thing as a normal life. As soon as there is a shortage of supplies, I will go to the Han people's settlement to rob it, and when I come back, I can enjoy it for a long time.

The internal merit assessment of the Xiongnu was also divided according to the amount of looted materials. This system directly guided the living conditions of the Xiongnu for the next few hundred years, in addition to grazing, that is, plundering. The Xiongnu also plundered each other internally, but mainly robbed the Han Chinese.

After the establishment of Liu Bang's Han Dynasty, there have been constant internal and external troubles. The internal worry is the threat to the central royal power of the separatist forces formed by the princes and kings, and the external trouble is the threat to the Han Dynasty from the Xiongnu royal court headed by Mao Dun.

Just as Liu Bang purged the heterosexual princely forces in the court and was preparing to further rectify the imperial court, Mao Dun waved his army south, and invaded Daijun, Yanmen, Yunzhong County and other places in one fell swoop, and the government and the opposition were in an uproar.

Liu Bang immediately ordered Fan Hao and others to lead the troops to resist. On the one hand, this is because Fan Xu can fight very well, even if he meets Mao Dun head-on, it is not much inferior, and on the other hand, it is to take the opportunity to dismantle the forces that support Lu Pheasant and the prince from the capital, killing two birds with one stone.

Fan Hao was a big old man, and he didn't think much about it, and Jin Ge ran to meet the enemy. As soon as Fan Hao left, Lu Pheasant lost a lot of strength in Beijing. Lu Pheasant knew Liu Bang's intentions, but she was not good at saying anything at such a time. At the moment of foreign enemies, it is natural to go all out to resist the enemy.

Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular. This statement really makes sense. Fan Hao relied on the advantage of the host to save the situation, but in the face of the well-prepared Hun cavalry, the Han army suffered heavy casualties, and finally the war fell into a stalemate in Daijun.

Liu Bang knew that although the Han army was numerous, in front of the Hun cavalry, it was simply an egg to a stone, and it was destined to be crushed. All he is relying on is location, people, and people. The Han Dynasty has just been established, and it can be stopped by the soldiers, if Mao Dun is allowed to go all the way down and hit under his nose, then the people's confidence in themselves will be gone, and how can the Han Dynasty have a future foundation for all generations?

Liu Bang was so anxious that his hair turned a lot whiter.

"Father, the son has come to see you!" Before Liu Ruyi could reach the voice, he ran into Liu Bang's propaganda room with a dark rosewood box.

"Ruyi? What are you doing here? Liu Bang asked in surprise. He likes this son more, and he also wants to use this son to balance Lu Pheasant and Liu Ying, but he is full of worries now and is not in the mood to deal with him.

"Father, the child heard that you have been very unhappy lately, and when you go back, you will tell your mother. Mother said that she used to like to eat snow flakes the most, and every time you were upset, she would make them for you, and you would be happy when you ate the sweet snow flakes in your mouth. So she prepared the materials overnight, and started making them early this morning, and asked me to bring them to you as soon as they came out of the cage just now. You taste it, it's still hot! ”

Liu Ruyi took out two slices of snow-white and crystal ice cream made of tapioca flour, handed one to Liu Bang, and took a bite of it himself.

"Your mother...... How's it going? Liu Bang didn't hate Qi Ji so much because of Liu Ruyi's efforts to brush Qi Ji's sense of existence in front of him without interruption. Sometimes, thinking of Lu Pheasant, who might threaten his authority, and the other concubines in the harem who were obedient to Lu Pheasant, he even missed Qi Ji, who had always been at odds with Lu Pheasant.

"She's fine, but she often regrets her mistakes and misses the days with you." Liu Ruyi replied.

He wasn't trying to repair the relationship between his father and his mother, and with what his mother did, it was impossible for the two of them to be together anyway. Even if they are together, there will be no less suspicion, and they will not return to the way they used to be. But after all, there have been so many years of relationship between the two, and it is not something that can disappear all at once, especially under his constant reminders.

What Liu Ruyi wants is to turn his mother into a cinnabar mole in his father's heart, and he relies on this emotional advantage to win his father's favor and move towards that supreme position.

"I knew now, why ......" Liu Bang sighed lightly, took the ice cream from Ruyi's hand, and put it in his mouth.

Sure enough, it's still a familiar taste!

"Father, the child has heard about the Huns' Mao Dun Shan Yu coming to commit it. Although the child is not talented, he still asks to lead the troops to go out and do his part for the Han! ”

Liu Ruyi saw that the time was ripe, so he knelt on the ground and asked Liu Bang.

"What did you say?" Liu Bang was still immersed in the aftertaste of the ice flake cream, and he heard the voice next to him coldly, but he didn't react yet.

"The son asks to lead the army to fight against Maoton, relieve his father's worries, and do his best for the Han!" Liu Ruyi said loudly, quite a bit of shocking power.

"What nonsense! You're so young, what kind of battle can you fight! Is it a game when there is a war? Liu Bang felt incredible and immediately objected.

"Father, although the sons are young, but the heart to do their best for the Han is no less than that of the brothers, please fulfill the father!" Liu Ruyi knelt straight on the ground, neither humble nor arrogant.

Of course, he didn't really want to go to the front line to fight, but he just wanted to use this method to remind his father that he still had his brothers available. These brothers will definitely not go, but they take the initiative to ask for help at such a young age, doesn't this lower their father's expectations for them and improve their good impression of themselves?

"Your brothers...... Alright, you get up! If you really want to relieve your father's worries, grow up quickly! Liu Bang touched Ruyi's head lovingly, and his face was full of joy.

Liu Ruyi saw that Liu Bang had just mentioned other sons, so he changed the topic, and knew that his idea had succeeded. He stopped pretending and stood up obediently.

On the second day, Liu Bang proposed in front of the courtiers that he wanted to drive the imperial expedition. The courtiers dissuaded and opposed it desperately. In the end, someone finally came up with the idea of letting the princes go on the expedition instead of Liu Bang. As soon as this idea was proposed, it was praised by many ministers.

But who will be sent? The average prince can't represent the Han, and it's useless to go. The only ones who can represent the Han are the crown prince and the king of Qi. But King Qi broke his leg yesterday, and he didn't come to the court today, and in the end it could only be the crown prince Liu Ying.

Liu Bang was pretended to be reserved, and finally compromised under the "turbulent remarks" of the courtiers, and nodded and agreed.

Lu Pheasant heard about this in the harem, and was so angry that he really wanted to feed Liu Bang something□□ forget it. How can anyone cheat his own son like this? But although Liu Bang still respects her on the surface, he no longer trusts her. Although she can put her own eyeliner in various places in the palace, but if she wants to poison Liu Bang, unless she can become a martial arts master and attack him unprepared, it is impossible for her to do this thing and be alone.

Since Lu Pheasant has decided to throw off Liu Bang and live his own little life, he will not jump into the pit by himself. People like Liu Bang are not worthy of their own lives.

So although Lu Pheasant was extremely angry, he still went to Liu Bang to intercede. That night, several people secretly went out of the capital overnight, and at the same time, a team of people with Lu Pheasant's seal letter and handwritten letter went to the front line of Daijun to negotiate with Maodun.

"Can King Yan listen to me?"

The next day, in the Liuhou Mansion, Lu Pheasant, dressed in men's clothes, was playing against Zhang Liang, who had white hair, under a plum tree.

Lu Pheasant held a white piece and landed lightly on the chessboard, but he was still asking worriedly.

"Niangniang can't trust the minister?" Zhang Liang, who had a white beard and white hair, calmly put down a sunspot, stroked his beard and said.

"How so? It's just that I'm still uneasy in my heart! Lu Pheasant smiled lightly.

Zhang Liang looked at the smile of the woman in front of him steadily. The pink plum blossoms bloom, and a gust of wind blows off, blowing off the petals. This clear smile is as simple and beautiful as in a dream.

In the blink of an eye, so many years have passed! They are all old. Although the face of the person opposite has left traces of time, she is still charming, and she is still incomparably beautiful in her eyes.

When did you see her? It seems like a long time ago! I remember that when I was young and poor, I once fainted at the door of a family, and when I woke up, I found several domestic servants beating him with wooden sticks. The boy was covered in bruises, unable to resist, so he could only keep begging for mercy. Unexpectedly, the evil servants were unmoved, and still beat him to play. Seeing that his life was about to be confessed there, suddenly a girl appeared.

"What are you doing? How do you beat a good person like this? ”

"Miss, this person fell in front of our house, it's too unlucky! The little ones teach him a lesson! ”

"He probably didn't mean to. Looking at his figure, I was afraid that he would be hungry, so I took it back and quickly invited a Lang Zhong to take a look. ”

"But miss, you are the only master in this courtyard, and it has been spread out, which hinders your reputation!" The green-clothed maid next to her said.

"What's in the way? Nothing is more important than human life. Just go! ”

The girl punished the wicked servants of her own house, and brought someone to heal herself.

At that moment, that girl was extremely beautiful in Zhang Liang's eyes. In this era when human life is like a mustard, I am still willing to save a person I don't know in this way. There were ripples in his heart, and he remembered so many years in the blink of an eye.

Now, they're all old!
