Chapter 33: The Emperor Disappears

However, it was said that Han Yu heard the report from the soldiers and knew that the eunuchs of the imperial court had arrived in the courtyard and waited for the decree.

It was already the third watch, Han Yu hurriedly dressed and tied his hair, put on cloth boots and walked out of the hall, kneeling in the courtyard to listen to the order.

The eunuch secretly glanced at Han Yu and saw Han Yu kneeling on the ground, so he opened the holy decree in a pretended posture and read, "General Han Yu has served as the commander of the southern camp for more than five years, and he has worked hard and worked hard during this period. I am grateful for the loyalty of filial piety, but I have my own arrangements for the situation in the south, and I must not be in a hurry to forge ahead! Stop the army as soon as possible and return all the counties and counties in Bazhou! And ordered Ouyang Han to temporarily act as the coach of Nanying, and filial piety should return to the court as soon as possible to listen to the order, and there must be no mistakes! ”

After hearing this, Han Yu suddenly felt that the world was spinning in front of him, and his mind was blank. Fortunately, I was reminded left and right, so I wanted to come to thank you.

"When will the general leave for China?" The eunuch sharpened his throat and urged angrily.

"Your Majesty, this is ......" Han Yu only felt a drum of angry blood in his chest, and sighed with a bit of confusion in his eyes, "Such a God-given opportunity, how can Your Majesty be so hasty!" ”

Seeing that the sky was getting cold, the eunuch didn't want to explain more, but just said, "Your Majesty has said in enough detail in your will!" After saying this, he yawned, and left the palace without looking back.

As soon as the eunuch left on his front foot, Han Yu suddenly burst into flames, and a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground in the pitch black in front of him.

When I woke up, I saw that I was already lying on the couch in the back hall. In front of him, Meng Yi, Xu Feng, and Li Ping were waiting anxiously.

Seeing that Han Yu woke up, the generals immediately stepped forward and asked with concern.

"How long have I been asleep?"

The first thing Han Yu said when he opened his eyes was that he was concerned about urging him to return to the DPRK.

"The general has been asleep for six hours, and he has just arrived at Shen Shi at this moment." Meng Yi endured his grief and handed the tea in front of Han Yu.

"Come, help me up!" Han Yu pushed away the tea bowl and got up with difficulty with the help of everyone, "Li Ping and I will go back to Guangyang quickly, and then I will return to the dynasty to resume my life." The return of the cities of Hexia and Danfeng counties is in charge of Tan Li, the chief secretary of the army, and the generals should perform their duties during this period to strictly prevent the enemy from sneaking up! ”

"General!" Meng Yi suddenly knelt on the ground and shouted angrily, "We are just one step away from taking Bazhou and going straight to Yue Guo!" Now just give up? Do you want to return the two counties and cities that we worked so hard to fight to Yue Guo? Your Majesty is young, living deep in the palace, and does not know the changes in the situation and military situation, he must have been instigated and deceived by traitors in the DPRK and China! ”

After hearing this, Han Yu was also indignant in his heart, but he was helpless, and lowered his head and lamented, "I have my own measure when I return to the dynasty this time!" Don't be presumptuous! ”

Meng Yi wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Xu Feng quietly tugging at the corner of his clothes, Fang Chang sighed and stopped talking.

said that Han Yu Pegasus rushed back to Guangyang, and went to the dungeon as soon as possible to visit Ouyang Han, who had been detained for many days.

The dungeon is dark and damp, and there is no sunlight all day long. When Han Yu first came, he felt a little out of breath, and it took him a long time to get used to it before he broke away from everyone and sat outside Ouyang Han's cell by himself.

"Your Majesty's decree has arrived......"

The two of them looked at each other silently, and sat opposite each other for a long time before Han Yu spoke.

The detention for many days has made Ouyang Han unkempt at this moment, his eyes are a little dull, and he has long lost the brilliance of the former Nanying right general.

It wasn't until he heard Han Yu's words that there seemed to be a little light in his eyes, and his limbs came to Han Yu's side with a quick step, his hands tightly grasped the cage, and he asked in a hoarse and hurried tone, "What did Your Majesty say!" ”

Han Yu's face was as flat as water, and after telling all the contents of the holy decree, he asked, "Is the position of the commander of Nanying really so tempting for you?" ”

Ouyang Han raised his head and laughed maniacally, "The invincible Han Xiaozhi has finally lost!" Finally lost in the hands of my Ouyang Han! ”

Han Yu was still unmoved, just quietly stared at Ouyang Han, who was almost crazy inside, and asked calmly, "Am I really so important to you?" ”

Ouyang Han laughed and shook his head, his eyes suddenly folded with murderous intent, "Without you, the most important thing is for me!" ”

Han Yu was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you mean by this?" I always thought we might be friends......"

"Phew!" Ouyang Han heard this, and was laughing maniacally, when he suddenly spat at Han Yu outside, and immediately sneered, "You Han Xiaozhi still need friends?" In your eyes, all of us are just pawns on your way to fame! Neither of us can be one person in our lives! My loyalty is Xu Guo! And you, Han Xiaozhi, are always loyal to yourself! ”

After hearing this, Han Yu suddenly got up silently, as if he didn't want to bother arguing with him, but just said lightly, "Got it." And he wanted to turn away.

As soon as he walked a few steps, he suddenly turned around and said coldly to Ouyang, "It's a pity that you didn't win!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Ouyang Han, who was still crazy, instantly became gloomy, shook the cage desperately, and asked with a roar, "Han Xiaozhi!" What do you mean by that? ”

Han Yu chuckled and said, "Because I don't intend to let you leave this Living Hell according to the meaning of the Holy Decree!" I won't let you take the position of coach temporarily! ”

"You want to resist the decree?!" Ouyang Han suddenly denied himself again, and shouted loudly, "No! You won't! You, Han Xiaozhi, have never been a person who will resist and disobey orders! ”

Han Yu didn't seem to want to explain more, and dropped the sentence, "You will never be able to win against me!" After that, he covered his mouth and nose with his long sleeves, ignored Ouyang Han's hysterical shouts behind him, and went straight out of the dungeon.

As of November, more than ten days have passed since Han Yu went to Beixu, and at this moment the north is already snowing heavily and the weather is freezing.

At noon, an official ship slowly sailed into the dock of Xiabei County in the heavy snow in the cold wind.

A boatman was covered in snow, lifted the heavy cotton curtain and entered the cabin to announce that the waterway from Xiabei County to Jingzhou, the national capital, was frozen by water, and everyone had to abandon the boat and travel to Beijing by land.

There were five passengers on board, and two errand officers were escorting a young military attachΓ©. The man was eight feet long, with a leopard's head and eyes, a large waist and a round waist, a full face and beard, and a look of nonchalance, looking at the snow on the dock outside from the cabin window with Erlang's legs crossed.

He wore a patched coarse cloth jacket and no hat. is sitting in front of Han Yu and Li Ping.

"Hey!" Li Ping shouted, "You are so rude!" I don't know what is in my way...... The master's way? ”

The military attache didn't reply, but just glanced back at the errand officer who escorted him, and then shook his legs again.

The two errand officials listened to it, glanced at Li Ping, looked at Han Yu again, and immediately shouted at Li Ping, "You big man, what are you shouting!" This ship is not your family's, and others are in your way! ”

Seeing this, Li Ping was puzzled on the spot, how could the errand officer in charge of escorting help a prisoner speak, so he pointed to the military attache and asked the errand officer, "Is this person your father?" Why do you still help him talk! Do you know who Grandpa I am? ”

"Whoever you are!" When the two officials saw Li Ping's disrespectful words, they immediately drew their knives in anger and wanted to arrest Li Ping.

"Then I'll tell you both today, who grandpa is!" With that, he grabbed one in each hand, and directly picked up the two errand officers, and in the sound of the two begging for mercy, Li Ping got out of the cabin and threw the two into the cold and turbulent river.

"Help! Help me! "Two officers were desperately struggling in Hanoi and calling for help.

Li Ping on the boat laughed and asked, "Do you know who your grandfather is now?" ”

"Know...... Knowing that ...... "The river was biting and turbulent, and the two choked on a lot of water.

Li Ping saw that the lesson was almost over, and he was afraid of causing trouble, so he ordered the boatman to lean over the boat, and after throwing it on the boat one by one, Li Ping laughed and said, "Be polite to everyone in the future!" ”

Where did the two errand officers dare to reply, they were already frightened, and they kept begging for mercy, "Don't dare anymore...... Don't dare to ...... anymore."

"Ziyuan!" Han Yu put on a black thick jacket, opened the cabin curtain, and said to Li Ping, "Don't waste time by messing around!" This place is far away from Beijing, so I will go ashore immediately and ride a horse into Beijing by land! ”

"What are you doing in Beijing?"

Li Ping was about to answer, but suddenly saw the military attache follow closely and asked.

Immediately choked angrily, "What's the matter with you?" ”

The military attache was not angry, and arched his hand towards Han Yu and Li Pingzuo, "Under the Xu Guobei Battalion, the deputy general of the Beiying, Pan Qing, the word Yuanlu." I don't think the two of you are like ordinary boat passengers, and this brother's skills just now are quite a bit of a shadow of a military camp! ”

Hearing that it was someone from Beiying, Han Yu in front of him squinted his eyes slightly, and said, "What does the deputy general of Beiying want to enter Beijing?" ”

Seeing Han Yu's extraordinary appearance, Pan Qing secretly guessed that he was probably an official who went to Beijing to take up his post, and immediately replied respectfully, "My lord said he was joking!" How can military information be leaked? There was a fear of accidents along the way, so he pretended to be a prisoner and entered Beijing. However, in the event of a road closure, it is a long way to go to Beijing, and bandits are rampant along the way, so they can walk together with each other. ”

"So you want us to protect you!" Li Ping sneered, "The road is facing the sky, it's better to go to the other side!" lest it cause trouble! ”

"Two of you!" Seeing that the two of them wanted to leave, Pan Qing hurriedly and earnestly said, "My lord, I am going to Beijing to take up my post, can I hear that Beijing is in turmoil now?" The city defense is now tightly investigated, and without my help, I am afraid that adults will not be able to enter the Beijing Division! ”

After hearing this, Han Yu suddenly had the energy, turned around and asked with interest, "Why haven't I heard that something happened to Jingshi?" ”

Pan Qing sighed and said, "Your Majesty escaped from the palace a few days ago!" Now Jingshi has messed up the city! ”

"What!" Han Yu's eyes widened in disbelief, and he immediately asked, "When is it?" ”

Pan Qing thought for a while, "It's been about half a month. ”

Half a month? I only received the holy decree ten days ago? Counting the distance of the proclamation, it can't be so coincidental, right? His Majesty finished the holy decree with his front feet, and slipped out of the palace with his hind feet? If it weren't for His Majesty's holy decree, who would be so bold as to dare to make an edict without authorization?

Han Yu understood that if what Pan Qing said was true, then this matter would become troublesome. Thinking of this, he immediately agreed to the request to enter Beijing together.
