Xiangyang, Thorn History Mansion.

Since the battle of Weishui, the Huan family sent troops to the Northern Expedition, the general Feng Gai, Yang Guang, Yang Quanzhi brothers for the vanguard, the front of the army, the Qin State guard will flee from the wind, this lost town for more than two years, finally returned to the hands of the Jin State, and Huan Chong also took this place as his own town in the festival, I wanted to capture Luoyang accordingly, but also in the old capital, to reproduce the glory of Huan Wen back then, but I didn't expect it, but it was happy and sad, a sick can't afford it, now he, his head is wrapped in a medicine cloth, his eyes are sunken, skinny as wood, but he is lying on the couch, looking at the kneeling in front of him, The two sons in full armor, with occasional cold flashes in their eyes, like a dying tiger, still maintained their last majesty and composure.

Huan Shiqian and Huan Shimin's eyes were full of tears, they were specially summoned back from the front line by Huan Chong, originally Huan Chong wanted to go back to Jiangling to recuperate when he was first ill, but the speed of the collapse of the Qin army exceeded his imagination, and the poisonous attack of the five stones was extremely fast, between ten days, he could no longer get out of bed and walk, these two days, Huan Conflict had signs of returning to the light, and he was able to sit up, and he knew that he had reached the time when the oil ran out and the lamp was dry, and he called his two sons, who were ready to explain the future.

There was no servant in the room anymore, Huan Chong's eyes turned to the pile of pond newspapers at the head of the bed, and sighed softly: "Qian'er, Min'er, do you know why my father called you here?" ”

Huan Shimin's voice was choked: "Father, don't talk too much, take good care of your body, child, the child will definitely seize Luoyang for you and our Huan family!" ”

A trace of anger flashed in Huan Chong's eyes, and he suddenly sat up, pointed his finger at Huan Shimin, and trembled slightly: "Stupid! Just a few Luoyangs, can you meet the ambitions of my Huan family? ”

Huan Shimin hurriedly kowtowed: "Adult, the child is speechless, you, don't do this, lie down!" ”

Huan Chong shook his head gently: "Don't say it, it's good to be a father now, there are some things, don't say it now, I'm afraid, I'm afraid that I won't have a chance to say it later." Listen to me, and do not intervene unless I ask. ”

Huan Shiqian and Huan Shimin glanced at each other, nodded, and still knelt in front of the couch.

Huan Chong's eyes were shining, and his speech became coherent: "Did the Hu merchant Abbas who was the day before yesterday contact you again?" ”

Huan Shiqian shook his head: "No, he said that he would not find a way to contact us until he arrived in Chang'an." Father, is there something wrong with this person? ”

Huan Chong sighed: "As soon as I heard this, I felt that this person was not simple, a Hu Shang, how could he have such an aura and knowledge, and he would have dealings with Xie Xuan." After thinking about it for the past two days, I finally understood that this person was not Hu Shang, but Liu Yu! ”

Huan Shiqian jumped up from the ground in shock: "What? Is it Liu Yu? Did he have a bearded face? ”

Huan Chong shook his head: "I didn't understand it at first, but Lingbao passed a book from the capital the day before yesterday, saying that Liu Yu had already left Jingkou with the woman of the Murong family, and he didn't know where to go, and it was estimated that he would go to the north." I heard before that the Murong clan has a unique school, called the disguise technique, which can put a mask on a person's face, which is different from his original appearance, I have never seen it before, but now that I think about it, I am afraid that it will be used on this Liu Yu. It is precisely because of this that the people of the Murong family can hide their Hu faces and freely enter and leave the territory of my Great Jin. ”

Huan Shiqian gritted his teeth: "Still have this kind of ability?!" I should have known that I should have brought both of them back and interrogated them strictly, and they would definitely be interrogated. Alas, Huangfu is such a fool, it's still a big deal. ”

Huan Chong's eyes flashed coldly: "Don't blame Huang Fufu, he is a martial artist, don't let him do things that exceed his ability." What I want to say is Zhen'er. Qian'er, I know you like this son very much, because he is very much like you, don't you? ”

A hint of pride flashed on Huan Shiqian's face: "Father, don't you like Zhen'er?" The younger brother is both civil and military, and the child's family has always been brave and strong, so this is the true character of my Huan family. ”

Huan Chong shook his head, and said, "Whoever defeats my Huan clan will be here." Qian'er, you kid at a young age, his heart is like a tiger wolf, in order to encircle his subordinates, he slaughtered the people who have been submitted, if he is allowed to have power in his hands, he will become a stone tiger, Ran Min and others, even if the force is peerless, he will definitely lose the hearts of the people, so he can't be used here, let alone let him be in charge of the army, don't hear it! ”

Cold sweat broke out on Huan Shiqian's forehead: "Child, the child apologizes to you on behalf of Zhen'er, I have already severely punished him for this matter, and beat him with a hundred military sticks, and now he can't get up." But, but really don't give him any chance? I'll let him change it! ”

Huan Chong sighed: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. Qian'er, I know you, although you are brave and good at fighting, but you are only a brave man, and you have no military strategy, and the people are both wise and brave, but you lack decision, and you are not the right person for the boss. If my Huan clan wants to maintain its glory in the future, only one person can do it. It's not you, it's Lingbao, after I die, you have to find a way to let him return to Jingzhou to take power. ”

Huan Shimin's eyes widened: "Father, what do you mean by this?" No matter how good Lingbao is, he is also a nephew, how can we give him Jingzhou, which we finally obtained? ”

A hint of coldness flashed in Huan Chong's eyes, stabbing Huan Shimin who didn't dare to continue, his voice was low and powerful: "Then your uncle didn't give Jingzhou to Lingbao back then, but gave it to me, is it also what you said to give it to outsiders?" ”

Huan Shiqian and Huan Shimin suddenly had nothing to say, lowered their heads, and Huan Chong sighed: "In this troubled world, the family is the foundation that can protect all the glory and wealth, and the most feared is the family infighting. The disaster of our Huan clan in Gaopingling, almost wiped out, can be resurrected, doesn't it depend on the unity of brothers and family unity? Now our family occupies this Jingzhou, but for twenty or thirty years, the foundation is not stable, so I think you will fight for me, do you think you can pass it on to your descendants if you occupy Jingzhou? Lingbao is the son of the eldest brother, the heir of Jingzhou, who is well known in the world, my uncle, can only be managed, and after me, I must give Jingzhou to him. ”

Huan Shimin sighed and said prostrately: "Father, how do you decide that we will all obey, but the child doesn't understand, in this case, why didn't Lingbao lead the Northern Expedition this time, but sent him to Jiankang?" ”
