Chapter Twenty-Six: Together

Liu Zhao heard the voice, turned his head and saw Huang Jun, and hurriedly said, "Come here, you all come here!" ”

A group of palace people rushed out of the side hall, all of them burst into tears, crying and crying, and a few eunuchs who had served him since they were children crawled in front of him, pulling his trouser legs and crying.

"Your Majesty, how is Your Majesty? The minions have been here for almost half a year, and they are thinking about Your Majesty every day! Huangmen official Che Qing knelt down in front of Liu Zhao and cried.

"Good!" Liu Zhaobei came from it, tears wet his eyes, although some of these people were sent by the Queen Mother, but they served themselves wholeheartedly, a few of them have been by their side since they were children, and they have taken care of them very decently, and now these newcomers, no matter how you look at it, they can't satisfy themselves, the more they think about it, the more sad they are, and they actually cry.

When Yuan Xian and Ren Tun saw it, they also wiped their tears on the side. Huang Jun also knelt down in front of Liu Zhao, kowtowing loudly, "Your Majesty, what crime have we committed to be punished here, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is in charge!" ”

As soon as he said this, he immediately cried again, and Lu Fan shouted: "Bold, you are here to be punished, it is the grace of the Queen Mother, and now you are so sad that Your Majesty is sad, what is your heart?" ”

After all, Che Qing is an old man from the palace, knowing the seriousness of the matter, he wiped a handful of tears and said: "Don't cry quickly, Your Majesty came here to see us, we should be grateful, how can we let Your Majesty accompany us to be sad?" ”

Liu Zhao also forcibly suppressed his tears, moved his lips, and said, "You wait, I can finally go out of the palace to see you." Look, we're all crying like this, get up, let's sit and talk. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Lu Fan and found that this person was not only brilliant, but also extremely smart. reminded himself that this matter was done by the Queen Mother, and it should not be too obvious, and raised the Queen Mother to make everyone afraid.

When everyone saw Liu Zhao say this, they wiped their tears and stood up and listened to the instructions. Lu Fan said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister has prepared a vegetarian banquet, vegetarian wine, set up in the back of the Cunshan Hall, Your Majesty can have a good time with everyone, since it is not easy to get together, but also cherish this scene, don't live up to such a good day." "Lead the way and lead the people to the back.

Cunshan Hall is used as a place for the emperor to bring the ministers to worship, the rest of the people, so it is repaired very comfortably, and after a few cases in the middle, there is a soft cushion for the emperor to sit on. The long room, with several rows of smaller tables and cushions, was originally for the ministers to rest, but now it is just right, everyone is sitting in one place, and the table has been placed with vegetarian fruits, vegetarian dishes, and vegetarian wine. After everyone sat down, Lu Fan said: "Your Majesty can talk and drink with all the old palace people, wait outside the palace for the minister and the two companions, if you have any orders, just call you a minister!" ”

After speaking, he glanced at Liu Zhao deeply and withdrew deeply. Liu Zhao secretly cheered in his heart, this person is alert, talented and extraordinary, and can be of great use.

He looked at the palace people, and saw that although everyone had a sad face, they didn't have much pain, and their faces were as usual, and they felt a little satisfied in their hearts. Huang Jun stood beside him, poured wine for him, and then took a hand and saluted himself: "Your Majesty, your subordinates came to Your Majesty's side at the latest, but they helped Your Majesty in life and death, and now they are no longer by Your Majesty's side, and my heart is very sour." Your Majesty, your subordinates will first give your Majesty a glass. ”

Liu Zhao's voice trembled slightly, and he said softly: "Okay, I, after drinking this cup, everyone will also drink this cup." ”

After a while, Liu Zhao sighed: "I, the emperor, is still a young emperor, and the queen mother still has to make the decision in everything. I have the heart to bring you back to my side, but I dare not disobey the will of the queen mother. If you say why you came here, I think, it is because you have been with me for a long time, so that the Queen Mother has lost trust in you! It's okay, you are still here for the time being, and it is still safe, and on the day when I am in power, I will definitely give amnesty to the world, and I will welcome you back to the palace and use it again for me. Come, for the sake of this promise, drink this again! ”

He drank first, and all the people thanked and followed. The atmosphere became lively for a while, and everyone mentioned some of the past events of the young emperor's childhood, and gradually there was laughter in the hall. Liu Zhao saw his old friend again, he was overjoyed, and he was a little sad, and couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.

Che Qing was afraid that the emperor would get drunk, so he was busy ordering people to serve tea, Liu Zhao was originally young, he was already drunk, and he didn't wake up.

The crowd had to arrange a dormitory for him to take a nap.

When Liu Zhao woke up, it was late at night, but he saw Lu Fan reading by the light next to him, with a pair of shining eyes, looking very capable.

Hearing the voice, Lu Fan put down the book, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you woke up, do you want to drink water?" ”

Liu Zhao sat up, felt that his head was still faint, dazed, and nodded. Lu Fan poured him a glass of water, and Liu Zhao drank it all, feeling that the world in his heart was chaotic, and he didn't know the day and night, like a fog, and he was completely unconscious.

At this moment, Lu Fan knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to ask for, please ask Your Majesty to agree!" ”

Liu Zhao helped his still dizzy head, and said softly: "Qing family, please tell me something!" ”

Lu Fan glanced at him, then looked at the candle flame, and said in a calm but cold voice: "Your Majesty, please ask Your Majesty to execute Huang Jun!" ”

Liu Zhao's face suddenly turned pale, the hair on his whole body stood up, and he immediately became unusually awake.

"You, you, you audacity!" Liu Zhao's face suddenly turned red, his lips trembled, pointing at Lu Fan, he didn't know what to say, he just stood up, walked back and forth on the carpet covered with chrysanthemum patterns with bare feet, and his heart was in a mess.

He knew that Lu Fan must have his own reasons for saying this, he was smart and cautious, and he would never ask himself to kill for no reason, not to mention, it was Huang Jun who he trusted and liked the most!

"Your Majesty, Huang Jun has to be killed, if you don't kill this person today, sooner or later it will bring unwarranted disasters to Your Majesty!" Lu Fan still talked eloquently, without fear at all.

"He, he's just a eunuch who has been left here, how can you talk so falsely!" Liu Zhao's eyes flashed, and the muscles of his whole body trembled, obviously both scared and angry!

"Your Majesty!" Lu Fan slowly stood up, bit his lower lip lightly, and his eyes flashed sharply, "Huang Jun is not a person available to His Majesty, first, he is in a high position, and his heart must be narrow, and he will not tolerate people, this is the way to get trouble." Second, he complains in adversity, and does not know how to endure and wait to move, which is the way of traitors. Third, he is thoughtful, although he feels the grace of His Majesty's knowledge, but he does not really have the heart to sacrifice his life for His Majesty, which is the way of the villain. The minister has been observing this person outside the palace today, and feels that if he does not kill this person, he will definitely bring endless disasters to His Majesty in the future, please think twice. ”

Lu Fan tidied up his clothes, paced to the window, looked at the clear autumn sky outside, snorted coldly, bared his teeth and smiled: "Your Majesty, if you can't bear to kill him, the minister can serve." ”

A trace of moisture flashed in Liu Zhao's eyes, "He said that he will smear my liver and brain, and he will never betray me!" ”

Lu Fan glanced at it, but the emperor who was still weak and hesitant said lightly: "Your Majesty, you have lived in the palace for a long time, and you have also seen this bright moon in the sky. Heaven and earth are the same, so why is there a difference between the poor and the rich? That is to say, people have different hearts and different behaviors. His Majesty has been controlled too much by the Queen Mother since he was a child, but he can endure the anger of the moment and have the ambition of the world. But I don't know, will it be a success? Those who become great things, must be decided, there must not be a trace of hesitation, and when the emperor can not have a trace of hesitation, you must know that you are now thorny step by step, difficult everywhere, one wrong step, you may be exhausted, so that the queen mother and her party can do the best in the world, and my Han royal family is in danger! ”

Seeing Liu Zhao's eyes with tears in his eyes, his hands trembled violently, and he couldn't help sighing: "Your Majesty still wants to be a young emperor for a lifetime?" ”

At this point, Liu Zhao turned his head, gritted his teeth and said, "I, I don't want to be a young emperor anymore, I want to be pro-government." Lu Fan, I know that you are talented, and I believe eight points in your words, but these eight points are enough. You are loyal to the first emperor, and you are thinking about my Han royal family, no matter how young I am, I also know the importance. That's it, although I can't bear it, but at this time I am really struggling step by step, you, you will replace me, will, will-"

When he said this, his voice was very choked, tears came out of his eyes, thinking of the first time he had a heart-to-heart relationship with Huang Jun, the two of them took care of each other, and thought of the relationship between the two of them and the Queen Mother, Huang Jun ventured to see Dou Xian for himself, and thought of the days when he was worried in the palace and supported each other. ”

"Whoa!" Lu Fan withdrew in response, looked at the night sky, and turned to the inner courtyard calmly.

In the early morning of the next day, people from the palace came to see Liu Zhao back to the palace. Liu Zhao saw that Huang Jun was not among them, his heart was sad, and he felt that his eyes were red, everyone didn't know that he was for this, so they were reluctant to let the palace people go, so they knelt down again to thank them, Liu Zhao waved his hand and asked them to get up. Turn around and walk outside the cemetery.

Lu Fan followed unhurriedly, and when he was sent to the entrance of the cemetery, he said, "Congratulations to send Your Majesty back to the palace!" ”

Liu Zhao looked at him, gritted his teeth and asked, "Are you already-"

Lu Fan raised his head and replied: "Your Majesty, Huang Jun died violently last night in the Yellow Gate, and the minister has buried him on the west side of the cemetery, and when Your Majesty is free, you can also go and see him!" ”

Liu Zhao sighed, stared at Lu Fan's clear eyes and said, "Lord Lu, after I return to the palace, I will issue an order to make you the right eunuch of the court lieutenant and enter Beijing on a certain day." ”

Lu Fan smiled and said: "When Your Majesty came, the minister had already told Your Majesty that the minister felt that the first emperor knew this grace, and he would only protect the first emperor in this life, and he would never leave for life." Your Majesty, if you want to be a capable official, the minister can recommend a person, this person's surname is Li Minghe, who lives in Huayin County, and His Majesty can send someone to visit. This person is talented, can be literate and martial, knows astronomy and geography, and is loyal to my Han family, if Your Majesty gets this person, it can be done! For the sake of the ministers, His Majesty must not delay when he returns to Beijing, so as not to make the Queen Mother unhappy! ”

Seeing that Liu Zhao was still reluctant, he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has always been here, and will never leave, when Your Majesty wants to come to see the minister, you can come, I think the capital is not far from here, if Your Majesty can't bear it, within a few years, it will be a spring breeze, no wind and no waves." After speaking, he gave a deep salute and watched Liu Zhao get on the horse and leave.
