A team of more than 1,000 people is heading towards the Hejian country, and on the post roads in various places, there are also post guards running wildly, and states and counties across the country have also received the news of the emperor's death.

Liu Hong was resting in the house, there was a sudden commotion outside the door, the little fat man frowned, and walked out of the mansion.

After leaving the house, I saw Xing Ziang hurriedly walking in, his face was sad, and when he saw Liu Hong, he hurriedly said: "I just received the report from the palace, Emperor Daxing has died...", Liu Hong heard it, and suddenly it was like thunder in his ears, his body was shocked, and the book in his hand fell to the ground, he hurriedly leaned over and picked it up, but his heart was indescribable, what should I say, is it to mourn the funeral of the Son of Heaven, or to be happy that he can take the throne? Or are you worried that this son will not fall on your head?

Liu Hong took a deep breath and didn't know what to do, should he cry at this time to express his feelings for this close relative? It took a long time for the little fat man to come to his senses, nodded, and said, "I know." So he went back and continued to read, to be honest, it was difficult for the little fat man to read the contents of the book, but he could only calm his mind in this way.

It didn't take long for Dong Pet to arrive, he also hurriedly walked in, did not go to see Liu Hong first, and went directly to find Dong, Dong saw his brother, and was about to salute, when he suddenly heard Dong Pet say that the emperor died, the whole person was also in a trance for a moment, and the two cried, no matter what, this attitude is to show, Liu Bo ordered, so that the entire Tinghou's house slaves cried.

The house slaves, who didn't know what was happening, could only howl, and one by one the cries shook the sky.

The little fat man seemed to be unable to hear the sound outside the house, and sat in the study, silently reciting the text over and over again.

The loud momentum of the Hou Mansion naturally aroused the curiosity of the rest of the villagers, after inquiring and learning that the Son of Heaven had died, the villagers also cried, for a while, the entire Hejian country was spent in the crying sound, in the Hejian Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Qiu knelt on the ground weakly, pounded the ground with both hands, and kept crying, Zhang He also wiped his tears and persuaded on the side.

In Yang Qiu's view, the Son of Heaven has the image of a Ming Jun, after all, he is promoting and reusing himself, and how can he not be sad when he suddenly hears bad news?

Zhang He was able to be known because of the desecration of the Pavilion Marquis, and he was promoted because of Xiangguo Yangqiu, no matter what, he didn't have any sense of sadness when the Son of Heaven died, but he could only wipe his tears, but he was thinking about something else in his heart, he leaned over and asked: "Emperor Daxing has no queen, I don't know who is the new monarch?" Yang Qiu didn't answer, just cried.

...............

The little fat man was reading in the house, the slave came, the mother of the house called, the little fat man had to put down the book, and the slave rushed to the backyard, and when he arrived at the backyard, he heard the howling cry, the little fat man was worried that something had happened to his mother, and walked in quickly, and when he went in, he found that his mother and uncle were crying.

"Mother, what's going on?" The little fat man hurriedly rushed to Dong's side and wiped the tears on Dong's face, Dong didn't answer, but Dong Chong hurriedly said: "Da Lang, the Son of Heaven has died...", the little fat man was stunned, nodded, and said: "I am anxious, I have never seen my uncle, and I hope to forgive my sins." When he said this, Dong Pet was directly stunned.

In the past year, the changes in his body are too great, the Dong Cheng, who is only one year old from him, is still playing with the house slaves in the house all day long, untidy, compared with this little fat man, no, the two are not comparable at all, Dong Zhong looked at him for a moment, and then he spit out two good words, the little fat man hugged Dong, and said softly: "Auntie, don't be sad, mourn and think about pain...."

Dong stopped crying, looked at the little fat man's increasingly mature face, and said, "My son is too." ”

The little fat man sat down beside her, raised his head, looked at Dong Pet, and asked, "But there is news of the villain who harmed my cousin?" Dong Pet's face instantly turned gray, and he shook his head, it has been a few months, I am afraid that the thief has also escaped, I don't know how to avenge my son, the little fat man comforted him for a while, chatted for a long time, and suddenly, the atmosphere fell silent.

"Da Lang, hasn't Master He looked for you?"

"He Shi is only afraid that he is still crying for Emperor Daxing, for a while, I am afraid that he will not be able to come, and the child has already sent Xing Ziang to the other place, so as not to cause anything to happen to the old man's great compassion."

Dong nodded, and suddenly said: "Although Xing Ziang is talented, he is not a close relative of mine, you see, your cousin is also growing up, how about letting him come to you and study together?" ”

The little fat man frowned and looked at Dong's family, this cousin was young and sick, and he had never seen him a few times, but after all, it was what his mother wanted, and he couldn't help it, nodded and said: "This matter is okay, and Mother must remember that Xing Ziang is the child's henchman, and this must not be mentioned in front of outsiders." Dong nodded and looked at Dong Pet.

Dong Pet's face was happy, and he immediately pressed it down, got up, and said: "Then I'll go back now, let that kid prepare for his life, Da Lang, you teach yourself, if you don't listen to the training, you can also be punished casually, there is Lao Da Lang." After Dong Pet left, the little fat man looked at his mother and said helplessly: "Mother, is this matter what my uncle wants you to say?" ”

"What? Don't you dislike my mother's despicability? ”

The little fat man shook his head and said, "I have no such intention, but if there is such a thing in the future, the mother will call the child to negotiate privately, and not mention it in front of outsiders." Dong was a little unhappy, frowned, and said: "That's not an outsider, your uncle, if you don't recognize your uncle, don't recognize your mother!" ”

The little fat man had no choice but to apologize to his mother for a long time before he coaxed Dong.

After another seven or eight days, the mighty men and horses arrived in the country between the rivers, in front of which was the elite of the Northern Army to open the way, riding high-headed horses, wearing armor, holding axes, and then there was a group of small yellow gates, walking, holding flags, and then there were Yuefu musicians, holding all kinds of ceremonial instruments, and then there were heavy soldiers of the Northern Army, holding large swords and drawing halberds, these are all ceremonial weapons.

Mighty, thousands of people, and there are four horses driving, six horses driving, everywhere you go, like the emperor out on patrol, from the governor of the state, to the local squire and strong man, incomparably go out to greet, to wait for these people and horses to arrive in the country between the rivers, the Yang Qiu with Zhang He hurriedly stood in the front, leaned down to worship it, worshipped not anyone, but worshipped the emperor's guard of honor, and the driving to welcome the new emperor was also majestic.

Zhang He was on the side, and was also shocked by this honor guard, his eyes were hot, but he didn't have the courage of Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, so he could only bow his head to greet him.

Everyone is asking in their hearts, who is this honor guard going to welcome?

The emperor's guard of honor is naturally to welcome the new emperor, but his identity has made countless people have thousands of thoughts, including Yangqiu, who is also thinking, this guard of honor does not notify everyone to greet them, nor does it explain the goal, and even, they can't stop in the state.

The people saw them walking towards Raoyang County, some scholars and rangers followed curiously, and did not dare to follow too closely, for fear of causing some trouble, that is, a welcoming team, so no one paid attention, if they greeted the monarch, and followed behind, it was a dead end, the team arrived in Raoyang County, and then slowly rushed to the Jiedu Pavilion.

It seems that the answer is gradually becoming clear.

Zhang He was dumbfounded, and then his face turned pale and he didn't say a word.
