Chapter 226: The Wind of the General

It is said that when Chen Long came to Cai's mansion, Cai Yan's soul flew into a nightmare, as if he met Ailang in a dream. When he realized that Chen Long was really alive in front of him, he was grateful that Chen Longjun had not forgotten it, and learned that Chen Long had never had an heir, so he finally agreed to put down all his reserves, marry his son, and marry Chen Long. Since then, there has been the nineteenth beat of Hu Ji in this world, but fortunately, this last beat is the peace and joy of the Cai family.

The news of Chen Long's wedding spread in Chang'an, and the royal family had a good relationship with Chen Long, so naturally there was a happy message. However, a private letter from the Empress Dowager He was full of vinegar, in addition to saying that Fengzi was married and immoral, and finally asked for a private meeting with him tonight.

Chen Long's visit to Chang'an this time, in addition to renewing the relationship with Cai Yan, is to straighten out the relationship with the royal family and its supporters, especially several famous generals such as Huangfu Song and Lu Zhi, as well as the soldiers and horses in their hands, and completely control Chang'an in his own hands.

And the most important thing is Lu Zhi, if he can get his support, then he will naturally gain the favor of Lu Zhi's great apprentice Gongsun Zhan. Gongsun Chan and Liu Bei studied under Lu Zhi together, although Liu Bei was still in exile, but Gongsun Chan was in Youzhou. In the future, if Gongsun Zhan can restrain Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in the rear, it will naturally be very important to his Jingzhou safety, and at least he can buy a lot of time.

That night, Chen Long rode the royal carriage and horse and went straight to the queen mother's bedroom. The guards got the decree of the Queen Mother, so they naturally did not dare to stop it, and since the royal family moved into Chang'an, eunuchs are no longer used, except for the guards who are all the royal forest army, and female officials are used in the palace.

Since the last time there was an overnight relationship, Empress Dowager He has always been obsessed with Chen Long. At that time, as the only man that Empress Dowager He could rely on, he could only exchange his body for each other's absolute trust. However, Empress Dowager He's mind was not cut off because of Long Chen's departure, but became irreversible unrequited love. Now that the dignity of the royal family is no longer there, although Chen Long agreed to retain the imperial power, he made it clear to the outside world that he would return the imperial power to the Political Consultative Conference. However, this time Chen Long suddenly returned, in order to marry Cai Wenji, who had a big belly, not to mention coming to the palace to see her, which really made Empress Dowager He sad all night.

hesitated to write the private letter to Chen Long, it was really not good to say that it was soft, and it was afraid that Chen Long would be unhappy if it was hard, and finally sent the letter away nervously. Sure enough, he replied that Long Chen would arrive tonight, and Empress Dowager He had been absent for a long time, and there were usually few people to talk to, so she was overjoyed at that time.

After a bath and changing clothes, skillful makeup, the palace beauties reflected in the bronze mirror, the skin is like snow, the willow eyebrows are spring, and the indescribable style is unparalleled, like an eighteen-year-old shy girl, and even she looks at it with a heartbeat. Looking forward to seeing the darkness at night, I don't know how many times I asked if anyone came, the female officers guarding the door snickered in their hearts, and I don't know what kind of Lang Jun came tonight?

Waiting very anxiously, and finally the sound of footsteps sounded, and the door official attracted a tall and majestic figure, kneeling down in front of the steps and being rude, saying that the Queen Mother was Chitose. Empress Dowager He pinched her spirit, sat down and waved back from Gong'e, and when everyone retreated, she suddenly stood up and threw herself down the steps, and said in a coquettish voice: "Chen Qing, hurry up!" ”

Chen Long stood up, facing the glamorous Queen Mother, who was already close at hand, and couldn't help but recall the romance of that night. Empress Dowager He is as gorgeous as ever, obviously dressed up quietly, although she is old, she has no residual flowers and willows. Both physically and mentally snuggled up to Long Chen.

Both of them didn't know where to start, Chen Long's heart softened, coughed, and said first: "The queen mother scolded her, and your subordinates didn't dare not come." ”

Empress Dowager He raised her head, stared at Chen Long's eyes and said: "Wenlong, don't blame the mourning family, it's good that you came, in order to see you, even I, the empress dowager, have to lie to people." Wenlong, you ....... Do you remember me?" The last sentence is already * naked flirting.

Chen Longxin said, the Queen Mother is more anxious than me, it seems that she is lonely and ruthless. said with a straight face: "Queen Mother, the last time I left Chang'an, we can say it first, I will do my best to retain the Han Dynasty, but the power will be returned to the Political Consultative Conference." Time has passed, the Queen Mother doesn't have any other ideas, right? I hope that the Queen Mother will abide by the promise of the royal family. ”

Empress Dowager He grabbed Chen Long's arm with her right hand, and the two walked up to the Danxi like Qingqing and my lover, and Empress Dowager He said as she walked: "Wenlong, this promise, as long as I am here, will never change." Not to mention that Wen Long can continue to maintain the dignity of the Han royal family, even if Wen Long has other ideas, how can I, a woman, influence you?" Saying that, helping Chen Long, the two sat down on the phoenix seat with affection.

Chen Long saw that Empress Dowager He was affectionate and affectionate, and he was not cowardly, so he put down his arms and asked, "I also understand what you said in your letter." Although you understand my heart, I can't guarantee that those old ministers under you have no opinion on me, I still have to guard against them at this wedding, you are just a kind reminder. ”

Seeing that Chen Long was reasonable, Empress Dowager He said happily in her heart: "Wenlong, isn't it, those old stubborns are so stubborn and like to meddle in other people's affairs." Especially since you have recently expanded your territory, there are many people who have a lot of complaints about you. ”

Chen Long was slightly nervous, and he was about to stand up. He asked, "Oh? Tell me, who have a problem with me?"

Empress Dowager He hurriedly grabbed Chen Long, sat down with him, massaged his shoulders and said: "Why should Wenlong care about them, when you will be unified in the world, when my royal family agrees to transfer power, it will not be the turn of those old stubborns to say anything." ”

Chen Long relaxed, enjoyed the gentle massage of the Empress Dowager He, and asked: "You say that, I am really overjoyed, it seems that the Empress Dowager is true love for me." The Empress Dowager He smiled wrinkledly, raised her hand and slapped him, and said, "I can really speak!" Leaning on Chen Long's arms, enjoying the warmth.

Chen Long stroked the shoulders of the Empress Dowager He, and asked in his heart: "The emperor and King Chen Liu, who is helping them now?"

Empress Dowager He heard what he said, and still replied honestly: "Around the emperor, there are nothing more than Huangfu Song, Wang Zifu, Chongji, Wu Shuo, and sometimes General Ma Teng on the Xiliang side, General Wang Yun on the Luoyang side, and Lu Zhi, who is idle at home, also come to visit occasionally. On Chen Liuwang's side, because he has been confined all the time, only his wife Dong and his father-in-law Dong Cheng move around from time to time. ”

When Chen Long heard this, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and said in his heart that most of the edicts were almost ready, and Liu Bei was missing. said with a smile: "I have something to ask for in the future, and the Queen Mother wants to help me." ”

Empress Dowager He hurriedly said: "Wenlong, the spring night is short, I will agree to whatever you say." But after your request is made, can you stop talking about the court tonight?"

Chen Long laughed, patted the Queen Mother's buttocks and said, "I didn't expect the Queen Mother to be more anxious than me!" My request is very simple, after my wedding tomorrow, I will also ask the Queen Mother to let the emperor issue an edict, let Huangfu Song be promoted to the position of Dasi Nong, and hand over the military power in his hands to Lu Zhi. ”

Empress Dowager He sobered up a little, she didn't expect Chen Long's request to be so specific, and wondered why Chen Long didn't directly ask for military power, and promised with a mouthful: "Just do what Wenlong said." Are you done with business?" said the last sentence, it was already as charming as silk. This night, the Empress Dowager He was like a wolf and a tiger, so I won't mention it here.

Chen Long returned to the inn in the early morning, saying that he was really tired when he had more wives. After sleeping for less than two hours, he was woken up by his subordinates and began to prepare for the wedding. On the same day, the red candles of Cai's Mansion were shining, the drums were noisy, and the guests were full, and after the wedding, Chen Long officially moved into Cai's Mansion to live, occupying a few ear rooms on the left. Cai Yong was naturally overjoyed, and the days when Luoyang used to hug each other seemed to be back. The strange thing is that several ministers close to the emperor, only Lu Zhi was clothed after he was convicted this time, and he did not appear.

On the third day, sure enough, there was news in the palace that the holy decree had been issued, and Huangfu Song was promoted to the position of Dasi Nong, ranking first in Jiuqing, and Lu Zhi was at home after being convicted, and this time he was appointed as a lieutenant in charge of the imperial army.

After Lu Zhi was enshrined, he went to the court on the second day to thank him, and Chen Long was also able to attend as a Nanxiang Hou. Lu Zhi's beard and hair are all white, and he puts on his official uniform again, and he is majestic and majestic, and he walks in all directions, and he has the style of a famous general in the world.

Lu Zhi, a native of Zhuo County, Zhuo County, was a scholar and military strategist in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Lu Zhi has a resolute personality, and studied under Taiwei Chen Qiu, Daru Ma Rong, etc., and is the same senior brother of Zheng Xuan, Guan Ning, Hua Xin, etc. He successively served as the Taishou of Jiujiang and Lujiang to quell the barbarian rebellion. Later, together with Ma Ripan and Cai Yong, he proofread the classic books of Confucianism in Dongguan and participated in the continuation of the "Han Ji". During the Yellow Turban Uprising, he was the general of Beizhong Lang, led the army to fight with Zhang Jiao, and was later framed and imprisoned. Later, Dong Zhuo was dismissed because of the anger of his superiors, and lived in seclusion in Shanggu Jundu Mountain, where he was invited by Yuan Shao to be a military advisor, and died in the third year of Chuping. He is the author of "Shangshu Chapters and Sentences", "Three Rites Interpretation", etc., all of which are lost today. In the Tang Dynasty, Confucius was deserved, and in the Northern Song Dynasty, he was posthumously awarded the title of Liangxiangbo. The white horse general Gongsun Zan and later the Shu Han Zhaolie Emperor Liu Bei were all disciples of Lu Zhi, and the Fanyang Lu family later became a famous family.

Chen Long let Lu Zhi hold military power, which has its own deep meaning. If Lu Zhi controls the Chang'an troops, once he can persuade Lu Zhi to fall to himself, Chang'an will be left with Huang Gai and Lu Zhi's two own armies, and they will become impregnable from then on. Zhu Jun was left with a court army outside, and he no longer posed a threat to himself.

After retiring from the dynasty, Lu Zhi passed by Chen Long's side intentionally or unintentionally, his footsteps did not stop, his head was not crooked, and a faint voice floated in: "Nanxiang waits for tomorrow and has time, and we will meet at the Dafeng Building by the water at noon." ”
