In the early morning of the next day, not long after Liu Hong fell asleep, he was woken up by Qin Mu, who came in a hurry.

Man got up with a sense of getting up, rinsed his mouth indiscriminately, wiped his face, and Liu Hong ordered Qin Mu to enter the palace to meet him.

Qin Mu walked into the palace gate, hurriedly untied the sword at his waist, handed it to the small yellow door at the palace gate, took off the cloth on his feet, and walked quickly to Liu Hong.

"The nobles of the court gathered outside the Sima Gate, please see Your Majesty!"

Well?

What's the situation?

Rubbing his face vigorously, feeling that his brain was clearer, Liu Hong rubbed the corners of his eyes tiredly: "What's the matter?" ”

I saw that Qin Mu's breathing was a little heavy, his face was flushed, he stumbled for a while, and simply stomped his feet and said, "Your Majesty, let's go and see it for yourself!" ”

Helpless, Liu Hong had no choice but to walk to the edge of the collapse with a stinky face and step on the cloth shoes, impatiently waiting for the little yellow door to dress for him, and then walked towards the palace gate with his hands in hand.

Qin Mu on the side hurriedly followed, and when he came to the palace gate, he suddenly turned around, explained a few words to the little yellow door at the palace gate, and immediately hurriedly followed.

As soon as he walked down the long steps outside the palace, he saw Ji Yan trotting over with more than a dozen people in military uniforms, and stopped beside Liu Hong.

Looking at Qin Mu with puzzled eyes, he saw Qin Mu bowing slightly: "Your Majesty travels, when there is a law to follow..."

Liu Hong smiled bitterly and shook his head, turning around to look at Ji Chen, who was wearing armor and holding a halberd and shield, as well as the so-called 'law driver'.

According to Liu Hong's cognition, Fa driving belongs to one of the books of the Son of Heaven; In addition to legal driving, there are also big drivers and small drivers.

It is recorded in Cai Yong's book: The Son of Heaven is out, and the car is the first, which is called the halogen book.

Generally speaking, the Book of the Son of Heaven refers to the honor guard, band, bodyguards, and carriages and horses that the emperor needs to bring with him when he travels.

And the law driver, as a medium-sized entourage in the book of the Son of Heaven, should have one of the six horses, five deputy cars of the four horses, three in the middle of the service, and thirty-six in the car.

In the words of later generations: according to the etiquette system, Liu Hong should sit in a six-horse horse-drawn Yellow House; The five most trusted courtiers sat in a chariot drawn by four horses; The three chiefs of the palace squires - 'squire' rode in three two-horse chariots, and the rest of the courtiers rode in thirty-six chariots.

Liu Hong's imperial chariot was at the front, and the follow-up vehicles were arranged according to the number of vehicles of 'one, five, three, nine, seven, thirteen, seven', a total of forty-five carriages, roughly forming a gourd-like convoy.

What makes Liu Hong cry and laugh is: Now counting Qin Mu and Ji Yan, there are only two courtiers around Liu Hong - Ji Yan is still counted in the row of servants!

Moreover, Liu Hong did not officially leave the palace, and did not summon the servant to serve in advance, so Liu Hongdi's imperial chariot was still lying in Weiyang and eating ashes.

With Liu Hong, there are only about 20 people, and they can't even make up the number of people required by the 'law driver', let alone the carriages and horses...

However, looking at the pirated 'law driving' team in front of him, looking at the ruddy face and holding his head high, Liu Hong couldn't help but show a knowing smile.

At least in the eyes of these people, as the emperor, Liu Hong should have his own pomp!

They are also willing to do their best to prepare an 'ultra-low-profile' version of the law for Liu Hong, which is not satisfactory, but still warms Liu Hong's heart.

Turning around, Liu Hong, who was walking towards Sima Gate again, was no longer sleepy-eyed, and Qin Mu behind him was also straight, his aura was magnificent, and the blade of the sword in his hand was shiny!

Ji Yan held a halberd in his hand, and without taking his eyes off it, he strode to follow his king and walked forward!

·······················

"The Son of Heaven is coming~Welcome~"

As a long procrastination fell, the two waves of people who were arguing with each other outside Sima Gate were stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously bowed: "Ministers welcome Your Majesty~"

And then...

Liu Hong, who was on foot, and the 'Fa Driver' on his side and behind him, walked out of Sima Gate and appeared in front of everyone.

Looking at all this, Chen Ping's pupils shrank suddenly and visibly, and Zhou Bo beside him also clenched his fists secretly, and his face was slightly distorted.

"Halo book..."

muttering softly, Zhou Bo glanced at Chen Ping with deep meaning, and then retracted his gaze as if nothing happened.

Liu Hong didn't think too much, and cleared his throat slightly: "Zhu Qing is flat." ”

After the words fell, the noble courtiers on both sides of the palace gate straightened up together, and their hands were naturally clasped in front of their chests.

I secretly said in my heart, 'Happy! Liu Hong stepped forward and was just about to ask about the situation, but he was speechless by the scene in front of him...

I saw that the square outside the palace gate was already filled with hundreds of carriages!

Almost all carriages had their carriages removed, leaving only a plank underneath; On each carriage were a few wooden boxes; Under the carriage, even the frozen ground in this winter is pressed out of deep rut marks.

Looking at the carriages full of 'heavy objects', Liu Hong's eyes flashed, and his breath couldn't help but become heavier!

Yesterday he was busy dealing with Wang Zhong's injuries, and he didn't care how many lords came to 'return' the 'rewards' they had taken from Shaofu; now it seems that the few people who blocked Liu Hongdi outside the dormitory yesterday were probably sent by the lords to probe Liu Hong's tone and test whether Liu Hong's attitude was tough.

Waiting for those people to send back the news of Liu Hong's 'oil and salt not entering', these people weighed the pros and cons, discussed it for another night last night, and finally decided to come together today to 'return'.

"How much does this cost..."

Rao is now the emperor, and Liu Hong also swallowed his saliva very unproductively - even according to the half tael issued by Gaozu Liu Bang, there are at least more than 200,000 yuan in nearly 1,000 carriages in this square!

Not to mention, the hundreds of thousands of gold cakes that disappeared inexplicably in Shaofu - each piece weighs one Han Jin and is close to 250 grams!

After blinking a few times vigorously and making sure that he was not dreaming, Liu Hong straightened his complexion, put on a kind smile, and asked, "Ministers, why is this?" ”

I saw an old figure walking out of the group of people on the right: "Marquis of Quzhou, see Your Majesty." ”

Liu Hong hurriedly stepped forward and helped: "It's Qu Zhouhou in person!" ”

It's not that Liu Hong is pretentious, it's really the Qu Zhouhou family, which has a strong sense of existence in the history of the early Han Dynasty!

The first generation of Quzhou Hou Lishang, ranked sixth in Liu Bang's list of founding heroes, and also belonged to the ruthless people who were killed with one knife and one shot in the Chu and Han hegemony.

After Liu Bang's death, Empress Lü was in power, and the clever Li Shang reconciled the Mao Dun between Emperor Hui and Cao Shen in the middle, and at the same time sent his eldest son Li to Lü Lu, an important minister of the Lü family, to curry favor with the three sides.

However, later, when Zhou Bo and Chen Ping united with the princes and ministers to punish Zhu Lu, the good days of the Qu Zhou Marquis family came to an end - Li Shang was arrested by Zhou Bo, and the eldest son Li Ji had no choice but to cooperate with Zhou Bo to coax his friend Lu Lu to deceive the Northern Army Talisman in Lu Lu's hand and hand it over to Zhou Bo in order to save his father Li Shang's life.

Later, Li Ji, who was originally praised as 'setting things right', was gradually slandered as a 'villain who betrayed his friends and sought glory', and it didn't take long for Li Shang to die of depression.

PS: I personally have reservations about whether Liji is setting things right or selling friends for glory.

In my opinion, Li Ji neither followed Zhou Bo out of justice, nor betrayed Lu Lu for the sake of glory and wealth; People are just out of filial piety, and they have no choice but to succumb to Zhou Bo for the safety of their father. In this regard, I can only say that Zhou Bo's mouth is really awesome, after all, he can say that Liu Ying is a ruthless person who is infertile, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal to blacken Li Ji.
