Chapter 404: Evil Zhao He
The Liufu caravan set off, and the carriage loaded with goods came out of the newly built south gate of Liulin City, and marched southward.
This kind of battle is almost the same as the situation of the army going out.
Especially among them are cavalry, archers, swordsmen and spearmen, etc. Looking at the escort of the Liu Mansion caravan, it seems that it is more formal than the officers and soldiers, and the order is forbidden.
Liu Xian had already designed a flag for his Liu Mansion caravan, and it was not a design, but the Dahan Dragon Flag was slightly changed to a red flag, and the golden dragon was embroidered on the edge, in a circle, and a Liu character was embroidered in the middle.
Of course, the flags of this ancient era are actually very particular, and there will be many brocade ribbons and a flag on the edge of the flag, which looks eye-catching and gorgeous, and of course, there is a bloody atmosphere.
Strictly speaking, ordinary people are not allowed to use dragons as banners, especially the five-clawed golden dragon, and the golden dragon on the banner of the Liufu caravan is only three-clawed, mainly because they don't want to be truthful, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
The dragon is the totem of China, and it is not that the folk may not use the dragon as some symbols, but some places still have to pay attention to it.
For example, some buildings need to carve dragons and phoenixes, then it is definitely possible, and some beds will also carve dragons and phoenixes. However, under normal circumstances, there is no need to make a five-clawed dragon, because a five-clawed dragon can only be used by the emperor.
It's like ordinary people's clothes, this can't embroider dragons on clothes, especially the five-clawed golden dragon, once discovered, it is estimated that it will be directly captured by the government and executed for the crime of rebellion.
In this regard, the Han Dynasty has clear provisions.
In addition to the flags representing the Liufu caravan, there are also many pennants, which are also the flags representing the Liufu caravan, and such a flag is planted on every carriage.
Qin Cha Zhao He, who went out of the city together, saw the formation that Liu Xian had made, his eyelids jumped, and he always felt that something was wrong.
And under the situation that the people of Yangshi County and Liulin City did not say anything to him, it made his heart extremely unhappy.
The envoys naturally had his carriage and hundreds of escorts.
When he saw Liu Xian, he walked to Liu Xian's side with a dark face, and said, "Liu Xian's little marquis, what are you doing here?" You're not going to mean ...... Your Liu Mansion caravan is also going to Luoyang Capital, right? The emperor's will is to let the little marquis you enter Beijing quickly, after all, Ma Guiren is seriously ill, and he misses the little marquis very much, and if he enters Beijing to see Ma Guiren a day earlier, her condition may get better a day earlier. ”
When Zhao He heard that Liu Xian would enter Beijing, he was indeed secretly relieved in his heart, he was actually worried that Liu Xian would not enter Beijing.
However, he also knew very well that Liu Xian was summoned to Beijing this time in order to put Liu Xian to death. This kind of thing, in fact, the less people know, the better, after all, it is not a glorious thing to say it, and Liu Xian did not commit anything, just because Liu Xian is the righteous son of Ma Guiren, so he wants to kill Liu Xian, which seems a little unreasonable.
Well, it's not that it's unacceptable, but it means that there are some people who can't get by on face today, and they want to save face and reputation. If everyone in the world knew that Liu Xian was killed by the emperor, how would the people of the world think of the emperor?
If Liu Xian arrives in the capital, he will indeed be a little-known person, and if he dies, he will be killed, who knows? Who cares?
However, if Liu Xian brought thousands of people from the Liu Mansion caravan into Beijing together, then it would not work, and such a fanfare would enter Beijing with such fanfare, and it would be spread all of a sudden, and Liu Xian's name would definitely be known soon. At that time, everyone knew Liu Xian's identity and origin, and everyone knew that Liu Xian was summoned to the capital by the emperor. In this way, is the emperor embarrassed to disregard his reputation and want to kill Liu Xian in the capital?
Therefore, Zhao He felt that something was wrong and felt the need to stop Liu Xian from doing this.
Liu Xian smiled at Zhao He and said, "Lord Zhao, what kind of illness does Ma Guiren have?" What kind of emergency would make her so serious all of a sudden? Of course, no matter what the illness is, I am also extremely anxious, and I can't wait to fly to serve my righteous mother all of a sudden. However, I think you have also seen Lord Zhao, this Yangshi County and Liulin Village...... Well, now it can be said that it is Liulin City, the people of these two places, more than 100,000 or 200,000, they actually all have to rely on the money earned by the caravan merchants of Liufu, and then buy food to feed. It can be said that the Liu Mansion caravan is the hope for these 200,000 people to live. This turned into Beijing, and by the way, escorted the caravan, killing two birds with one stone. ”
Zhao He nodded pretending to understand and said, "Little Marquis, I understand what you said, but Ma Guiren's illness can't wait." So...... I think it's better for the little marquis to take the first step, let's go first, and let your Liu Mansion caravan slowly enter Beijing later? ”
The guy with a bad stomach, he was thinking that as long as Liu Xian went to Beijing first, as long as he arrived in the capital, then he could take down Liu Xian immediately. As for this so-called Liu Fu caravan, it will definitely not have a chance to reach the capital. At that time, this caravan will have to pass through countless checkpoints, and he only needs to make a little effort to stop this huge Liu Fu caravan, and he can prevent the Liu Fu caravan from entering Beijing. As long as the Liufu caravan can't enter Beijing, then there will be no sensational effect because of the formation of the Liufu caravan, so it is equivalent to Liu Xian's impossibility of creating any influence in the capital. In this way, what is the result of Liu Xian, and who knows?
In addition, at this time, Zhao He was indeed greedy for the goods of the Liu Mansion caravan. There were thousands of carriages, and on each carriage, a cart of goods was pulled to the maximum, although they were packed in some boxes and sealed with linen, and he didn't know what kind of goods they were, but he felt that those should be some valuable goods. This Liu Xian has to die anyway, so these goods should fall into his hands.
In the blink of an eye, he had already come up with a lot of ways to take over this large number of goods.
"Lord Zhao is too worried, the righteous mother is actually not very old, her body is very good, and there has never been any major problems. If it is said that the righteous mother is sick because she misses herself, this is also possible, but it has only been a long time, and I believe it is not a big problem. What's more, if there is really any serious illness, there is a skilled imperial doctor in the imperial court, and I believe that he will be able to cure the righteous mother. What's more, I entered Beijing with the Liu Mansion caravan, which was only a matter of one day earlier and one day later. Haha, Lord Zhao is relieved. ”
Liu Xian would definitely not leave the Liu Mansion caravan and Zhao He to enter Beijing quickly. Liu Xian not only couldn't be fast, but also made a big noise along the way.
Everywhere he went, Liu Xian planned to stop and then scatter the seeds...... Well, this refers to taking advantage of this visit to Beijing to see if there is a way to buy some industries in the towns along the way and take the lead in building up your own intelligence system.
Why did Liu Xian want Li Yuan to go with him, it was Liu Xian who asked him to take some people to take care of the affairs along the way for Liu Xian.
Now Li Yuan has been working in the Yangshi County Government for a long time, and Liu Xian has also discovered that he has grown up very quickly, and if he stays in the government to do things, he can't learn too much, so it is better to take him and go to Beijing with him, so that he can increase his knowledge.
"Young Master Liu Xian, isn't this good? In case you don't arrive for a long time and miss the emperor's will, this is tantamount to resisting the will. In case the emperor wants to blame ......"
Zhao He saw that Liu Xian was unwilling to enter Beijing as soon as possible, so he had to move out of the emperor to suppress Liu Xian, and his tone was called Liu Xian's son from the original little marquis, and he didn't even have that bit of false respect.
The Marquis of Yiyong is just a fictitious title, but whether there is real power or not, whether it is big or small, it is all the marquis.
Of course, whether Liu Xian has this name or not, he will never have any good impression of these eunuchs in the court. It's just that Liu Xian doesn't want to casually make friends with these villains. If they don't provoke themselves and don't affect themselves, then Liu Xian can also be vain and reluctant to deal with him. However, Liu Xian was originally a little annoyed by this guy who Zhao He held the holy decree and made him kneel twice.
Liu Xian never wanted to have anything to do with the imperial court, because in a few years, the emperor would be hanged, and when the time came, the world would rise together, and he would naturally raise troops. In this way, why should Liu Xian be uncomfortable, and what does it have to do with the imperial court?
As for why the emperor canonized himself, or even what kind of official he was, Liu Xian never wanted it and didn't look forward to it.
However, this kneeling is all kneeling, and it is still good to have the name of a righteous and brave marquis.
Now seeing that Zhao He actually wanted to show his face and use the emperor's will to pressure himself, Liu Xian suddenly became angry.
Liu Xian put away his smile, glanced at Zhao He coldly, and said, "Zhao He, how can Ben Hou still need you to speak?" Emperor? Are you using the emperor to press me? The Holy Decree does not limit the time limit for Benhou to enter Beijing, what are you talking about here? That's right, you came out of the palace in the capital, all of you are powerful and powerful, and ordinary people are afraid of you and can't afford to offend. However, this Hou Ye wants you to understand that you have no right to dominate this Hou Ye anything. This time, the marquis wants to escort the Liu Mansion caravan into Beijing together, which has to be done along the way, if you are not in a hurry to return to the capital to resume your life, then you can go together, if you are in a hurry, then you can please. ”
"Liu Xian! …… Uh, little marquis, you, you have misunderstood, where is this official using the emperor to pressure you, it's just, it's just ......"
Zhao He's face changed, and he wanted to scold Liu Xian loudly to show his authority. However, when he saw Liu Xian's unkind Wei Ling's gaze, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he quickly changed his face and wanted to explain.
Zhao He is good Qincha, and no one dares to be disrespectful to him wherever he goes. However, he came with a mission, and he must get Liu Xian to the capital. In case this makes Liu Xian petty and doesn't enter Beijing, he finds that he really can't help Liu Xian.
And he came here twice, so he naturally knew that Liu Xian defeated the Yellow Turban Army of Montenegro. knows that this Liu Xian is not an ignorant boy who can be manipulated by him.
Well, boy, it's true that he's a young kid, but on the contrary, such a kid is uncertain and willful, so he dares to do anything and does it.
Therefore, Zhao He really didn't dare to give Liu Xian a face again.
Liu Xian waved his hand, interrupted his speech, and said in a deep voice: "No need to say more, let's go, if you want, follow my caravan, if you don't want to, please do it yourself." ”
Liu Xian didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked straight to his war horse and flew on the horse.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Liu Xian is gone, there is no need to send him off!"
Liu Xian was on the horse, waving to Cai Yong, Tian Feng behind him, and the people who were sending each other off along the road.
"Be careful all the way!"
"Young Master Liu Xian, have a good trip!"
"Take care!"
The people around all shouted at Liu Xian together.
The people didn't know the danger of Liu Xian's trip to Beijing, and they only regarded it as a regular businessman. The Liu Mansion caravan, every time there is a harvest after the business, so the people come to see each other off with joy.
The Liufu caravan is indeed the hope of the people of Yangshi County and Liulin City, and the hope of living a good life. They all hoped that every trip of the Liu Mansion caravan would be smooth and smooth.
Liu Xian waved his hand and marched forward.
Zhang Ning and Huang Wudie, two daughters, followed closely.
Zhang Ning was still dressed in a black suit, and she also wore a raw yarn hat, which covered up her beautiful appearance.
Huang Wudie was wearing a red suit, and she also learned from Zhang Ning and wore a hat, but her hat did not hang the veil and did not hide her face.
Behind is Liu Xian's carriage, and Yi Ji is inside.
It was followed by Shan Yong, Li Yuan and others, as well as two hundred Liu Xian's guards.
Liu Xian was the last to set off, and the Liu Mansion caravan had already moved forward slowly.
As for the 100 cavalry, and the 100 men from the dark camp, they had already gone to the front to reconnoiter along the road.
As for the camp of the Sin Army, it was also expanded, and the number reached nearly five hundred.
The secret camp of the criminal army is all selected from the elite of the Yellow Turban captives, and for each member, they have been carefully checked, and if there is no big problem, they will be allowed to join. As soon as they join, they will be trained.
If there are some things, it will be easier to do after having experience, and a set of training methods have been summed up for their training.
Their role now is equivalent to that of scouts for the time being.
The cavalry that went to the front was the reconnaissance cavalry who explored the way openly, and the people in the secret camp were the men who were secretly scouting.
In this Han businessman, especially Liu Xian's goods, which are indeed extremely precious goods, Liu Xian really will not take it lightly. This batch of goods is absolutely not allowed to have problems, and it cannot be robbed.
Zhao He wanted to say something, but seeing that Liu Xian didn't care about him at all, he had no choice but to get into his carriage stupidly, and didn't care about the people who were sent outside the city gate, and let his men and horses escort him to the end.
Liu Xian's attitude towards him did hate him, and he decided to find a way to sabotage the plan of the Liu Mansion caravan to go to the capital no matter what.
However, it was still far from here to the capital, and he was not in a hurry, so he waited until he got to Julu or other towns.
