On the twelfth day of the Han army getting along with Ban Yu Man in Langzhong City, the imperial edict that came from the horse arrived quickly, and there was a Huangmen squire who passed the decree to announce the decree.

In the edict, all the people who quelled the chaos this time were rewarded, and the generals under Fuquan were the heaviest. Guan Yu and Huang Zhong were named Sima of other departments for their merits, Xu Huang and Shi A were named miscellaneous Sima, and the rest were fake Simas. As for those like Dong Zhong, who had mixed merits, they were recalled to the imperial court, thinking that it should be because of this nominal merit, the people in the imperial court helped them operate again, and they were quickly promoted.

Fuquan was worshiped as the Bajun Taishou, the Marquis of the Pavilion of the Crown, the thousand five hundred households of the city, he didn't feel anything about it, this time to quell the chaos, although it was a small achievement, but he had the merit of breaking Xianbei before, and it was really unreasonable to say that he was not a marquis, after all, Zhu Jun was crowned a marquis when he pacified Jiaozhou, and his own merits were added up several times, no matter how much he was more than him. It is said that his current title is the same as Zhu Jun's, and he is ashamed of the court, of course, Fu Quan doesn't know that there are eunuchs messing around.

However, what really surprised Fuquan was a secret letter written to him by Emperor Liu Hong who came with the imperial edict, in addition to some of the emperor's words of encouragement to his courtiers, that is, he asked him to raise 5,000 elite soldiers on the spot, thinking that it would be of great use, but what was the specific use, but there was no mention of it, which was really puzzling.

Called Wang Mou to inform the emperor of his intentions, he didn't know Liu Hong's true thoughts, but although he couldn't guess, the emperor's order still had to be followed, everything rushed to Ba County to govern Jiangzhou, and investigate the Ba County Treasury, I don't know how much Ba County suffered from this chaos, and how much the treasury still has, otherwise there is no money and no food, and he has to ask the emperor for money and food.

Not to mention how to go to Jiangzhou City on the Fuquan Road, after Liu Hong ordered Fuquan to be the Taishou of Ba County, Fu An, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, carried out the order of Fuquan and took people to Langya, Xuzhou. When Fuquan received the holy decree and returned to the Ba County Governor's Office, a carriage convoy of dozens of people set off from Langya to Ba County.

"Sad songs can be used as weeping, and distant looks can be angelica. I miss my hometown and am depressed. If you want to return home, there is no one to cross the river. The mind cannot be spoken, and the wheel of the intestine turns. ”

The wheels turned, nearly ten carriages headed southwest, and there were dozens of servants on the left and right, and at this time only heard a female song of parting from her hometown and feeling homesick, which was sad.

This song is the Han Dynasty Yuefu folk song "Sad Song", which describes the wanderer's homesickness, crying because he can't return to his hometown, and he is regarded as returning to his hometown when he climbs high and looks far away. The vast grass and trees, the heavy hills covered the eyes, and the homesickness was full of sorrow. There are no relatives at home, where is there still a home. Even if you have a home, you can't go back, because the future is bumpy, you are desperate, and you have no boat to cross.

I want to tell people about my homesickness and painful experiences, but there are many unspeakable things that I can't talk about, so I have to hold them in my heart, and my heart is full of pain, like a wheel turning in my intestines, and there are bursts of colic.

On a carriage in the middle of the convoy, Yao'er looked at the singing woman beside her, was moved by her singing, and said with a melancholy face: "Brother Bian, this trip is not not not to return to Langya, the prince is also a Langya person, and he will return to his hometown one day to see his relatives again." "Female brother is the name of the elder sister in the Han Dynasty, and conversely, the younger sister is called the female brother.

The woman was about twenty years old, her pale plain robe tightly wrapped around her delicate body, her face was like peach blossom eyebrows like willow leaves, her beautiful eyes were as graceful as clear, and there were a few tears hanging on her long eyelashes.

Hearing Xiao'er's words, she was stunned, and then the woman sighed faintly, looked at Xiao'er, and said in a lonely voice: "This journey is thousands of miles, how do you know when you will return home?" Then, he looked in the direction of his hometown again and sang "Sad Song", with a tactful voice and a melodious voice, which was sad.

In the song, the woman is thinking about her hometown, thinking about her family, thinking about her parents who have been raising her, thinking about her younger brother who is still a minor. Will they miss her as much as she misses them? A kind of longing for her hometown because she was forced to travel far away, as well as the emotions of confusion about the future, permeated her heart and could not let go of it for a long time.

The singing woman's name is Bian Ying, the daughter of an advocate in Langxi Kaiyang, the so-called advocate, that is, the musician family specializing in music and dance in the Han Dynasty, which is a lowly profession in this era. In other words, this Bian Ying is a kabuki voice, she grew up in the advocate family since she was a child, she has been exposed to song and dance performances, and has also been taught to practice, plus she was born beautiful, she is a well-known female playwoman in Langya, and she is sought after by the sons of many wealthy families, and wants to accept her as a concubine, but she is rejected by her family.

For this Leren family, the daughter of this beautiful singing and dancing family is a strange commodity, which naturally cannot be easily sold, and it may be enjoyed by ordinary people? Just like many virgins in later generations who sell their bodies for money, they will choose a high price, and if they want to sell their daughters, they must also sell them for a good price, right?

So Bian Ying has been kept at home, and performs with the family on weekdays, until a few days ago, Fu An, the housekeeper in Langya's mansion, heard Bian Ying's good name, came to the door to ask for a meeting, explained her intentions, and wanted to ask for Bian Ying as a concubine for her nephew Fuquan, who was not finished, and her fate was changed.

When asked this, the Bian family of course agreed, but the power of the Hou Fu clan in the court should not be underestimated, and it is closely connected with the queen's family, the Song family, and now that the queen has given birth to a prince, the power of the two families can be imagined. If you can rely on this to get in touch with the queen Song, the general Song Yu and the captain of Sili, it is really profitable to send a daughter who has been raised for 20 years, and it is not a loss to even send ten.

And it is Fuquan, and now it is also the rank of the Han Dynasty, which is not a title obtained by a knighthood rewarded by a relative, but a sword and a sword obtained by virtue of military exploits. Although this title is only the lowest Pavilion Marquis, don't forget that Fuquan is only less than twenty years old now, and it is not impossible to get the Marquis of Wanhu with his military exploits in the future, not to mention that at this moment he is also the Bajun Taishou of the Han rank of 2,000 stones, and how many people can compare with it for hundreds of years?

Therefore, Bian Ying's family sold their daughter without even thinking about it, and took the initiative to send her to the Langya Fu family's manor without even talking about the price. Later, Fu An remembered the teachings of the head of the family when he came out of Luoyang, and took the initiative to send ten gold to the Bian family's mansion, and the Bian family first resigned, until Fu An said that it was for Bian Ying's brother to live, and the Bian family accepted it.

Only then did Bian Ying and a total of nine women who had been selected step into the carriage of the Marquis Mansion, thinking about the advance of Shudi, where there was a young man who they had never seen before and needed their service.
