Chapter 8 The Imperial Palace Canal

"Zuo Du Hou Ma Yue to meet Your Majesty."

Dressed in armor, Ma Yue still walked quickly in front of Liu Hong, holding the helmet without saying a word, pushing the gold mountain and pouring the jade pillar to make a solid kneeling bow.

Liu Hong carefully looked at the young warrior in armor in front of him, his height of almost nine feet was the first impression, and the red lining under the armor was bulging with muscles, and he was very strong. The long hair that had been draped off the helmet was sprinkled over his shoulders, and a few locks of braid were braided in it. The high eyebrows, deep eyes, and the bridge of the nose are straight, the willow leaf-like narrow eyes, the mixed blood of the Qiang and Han are unobstructed, a two-inch-long scar on the left eye is very conspicuous, and the right forehead side is another scar until the root of the hair.

The color of the scar has faded, how old is he?

Liu Hong asked himself in his heart, Ma Yue looked no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, and there were two almost fatal scars on his head.

"You're Ma Yue? Liangzhou Ma Yue? ”

Ma Yue worshiped at Liu Hong's feet, and couldn't look up at his expression, this was the first time he had met the emperor, his heart was full of curiosity but he couldn't raise his head, so he had to reply: "Back to Your Majesty, it's the lower official." ”

"Bold Ma Yue, you are guilty!"

I...... Exercise?

Why did Lao Tzu confess?

Ma Yue's heart of 10,000 grass and mud horses stepped over, where the is this, calling Lao Tzu over is to ask Lao Tzu confused?

No, if I am really guilty, it would be good to send the court lieutenant to take me down, where will I be asked to bring someone over to ask for the guilt.

After counting the breath, Ma Yue figured out these joints, and said stiffly: "Back to Your Majesty, minister...... Ignorance. ”

"I don't know the crime, I ask you again, Ma Yue, who killed the leader of the Qiang people, Beigong Bo, are you guilty!"

Since Liang Xing intercepted and killed Pei Ying'er, there is an abyss in Ma Yue's heart that can never be touched, even if he doesn't touch it, he still feels a faint pain in the dead of night.

Ma Yue stiffened his neck and said, "The minister is right! ”

Ma Yue craned his neck, and he saw Liu Hong's face, an ordinary and honest young man who was a little blessed, and after that, Ma Yue saw Zhang Rang behind Liu Hong who was squeezing his eyebrows at him.

Of course, now he doesn't know that this fat-headed, big-eared, white-faced, and bearded person who looks like Maitreya Buddha is the head of the ten permanent servants who have troubled the world in the history books.

Ma Yue ignored the fat man who was squeezing his eyebrows, and looked at Liu Hong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, with a pair of eyes.

There are some things that he can accept, such as kneeling.

But there are some things that he can't accept, if it is wrong to avenge his wife and brother, then what justice is there in this world?

Ying'er said, I am a hero.

Then I'll do it for the world!

Liu Hong and Ma Yue's eyes collided, and the two watched for a few breaths, and Zhang Rang almost beat his chest behind Liu Hong's back, and secretly scolded Liang Hu for accepting a fool as a student.

Most of the heavens and the earth are not as big as living well, there are many ways to seek death in this world, and confronting the Son of Heaven is undoubtedly the most effective one.

But sometimes, it's not quite.

Liu Hong stared at Ma Yue for a long time, then suddenly raised his head and smiled, and said, "You are good, you are not wrong!" Liu Hong said and stretched out his hand to hold up Ma Yue, although Ma Yue was puzzled, he still got up and stood opposite Liu Hong.

Liu Hong said: "I see your anger and grief, you did the right thing. Last year, I also lost my beloved wife. He spread his hands out, as if trying to grasp something, but couldn't. Then he said: "If I were to change to you, I would also raid the Qiang tribe, slash the enemy, and be happy to take revenge!" But although I think you're right, if there's chaos in the west in the future, some people will think you're wrong. ”

Standing up, Ma Yue was a head taller than Liu Hong, he grew up again, eighteen-year-old Ma Yue achieved his most long-awaited wish when he was twelve years old, and he had the normal height of the Ma family when he became an adult, eight feet five inches.

"You're going to be in danger then, and only I can save you, so you'll need to be loyal to me, understand?"

Ma Yue nodded and said, "I am willing to die for Your Majesty." ”

"Haha, I don't need you to die for me yet." Liu Hong pointed to the group of eunuchs in front of Weiyang Palace and said, "I need you to repair the canal in front of the palace for me, let your people help, you come with me." ”

Ma Yue looked at the group of little eunuchs, ditches, hoes...... He looked at the guards behind him again, and said to Liu Hong: "Your Majesty, can you allow the ministers and the guards to build a canal for Your Majesty?" ”

Liu Hong looked at the ditch, looked at the guards behind Ma Yue, looked at Ma Yue carefully, smiled, and said, "Then you go, go back and tell your teacher that I want him to invite the Son of Heaven to dinner tomorrow, and he will be in the Liang Mansion." ”

Ma Yue nodded in agreement, and was about to retreat, then turned his head and asked, "Your Majesty, Rong Chen has the courage to ask, have you taken revenge?" ”

Liu Hong shook his head.

Ma Yue nodded, thought for a while and said, "That minister will avenge His Majesty's worries." ”

Liu Hong chuckled lightly and said, "You have a heart, maybe, maybe when I want to take revenge in the future, I will use you." ”

Ma Yue retreated, Liu Hong shook his head and looked at Zhang Rang and smiled.

"Your Majesty is very happy." Zhang Rang said with a smile: "What does Your Majesty think of Ma Yue?" ”

"It's not bad, what my father said is good, it's a manufacturable material." Liu Hong did not fall with a smile on his face.

If I avenge the murder of my wife, who will balance you for me? My Jean Father.

After getting off the Xuanwu Que, Ma Yue said to the guards: "Everyone put down their weapons, Your Majesty wants us to dig and repair the canal." ”

No one refused, the Son of Heaven watched from the Xuanwu Que, there was a sound of gold and stone, nearly four hundred halberds were placed on the ground, and these palace guards scrambled to lift the hoe one by one, digging the ground more vigorously than the eunuchs.

Ma Yue also wielded a hoe, dug bluestone slabs in the ground, and dug along the canal.

This is the feudal era, none of these guards will refuse this kind of thing, maybe they are really different from the soldiers in Liangzhou.

When Liu Hong told Ma Yue to ask the guards to dig a canal, Ma Yue thought about refusing, and later relented, but he still wanted to grab the errand himself.

He felt that it was an insult to let these guards around him put down their halberds and dig canals, if it was to dig a canal for the people, the emperor could have asked the eunuchs to do this kind of thing slowly, why did he have to let the guards do it.

Since he wants to do it, Ma Yue has to take the lead.

Every guard here is a palace gatekeeper, and they are all recommended to Luoyang by various counties and counties, they come from all counties and countries across the country, each of them is the pride of the sky, and there is only one place in a county a year.

Liu Hong, Zhang Rang and the others had already left, raised their arms and wiped them on their foreheads, wiped the sweat on their faces, and looked at the towering Xuanwu Que and Weiyang Palace, Ma Yue lowered his head and laughed.

It seems that Emperor Liu Hong is not as incompetent as in the history books, and Zhang Rang seems to have great kindness to himself for some reason, and it seems that most of them are related to his teacher Liang Hu.

Isn't the regular process all about coaxing the Spirit Emperor to kill the eunuch? I'm a little off track.

Luoyang is a place where the water is very deep.

So he slowly dug this ditch.
