Facing Liu Jue's gaze, a strange look flashed in Ma Chao's eyes, and after a moment of silence, Fang said slowly: "Since my father was harmed by the villain, it has been several years since his whereabouts were difficult. After years of thinking about revenge, he was weak and powerless. Now that I have come to summer, I just want to borrow soldiers and horses to seek revenge from Han Sui in the west. ”

After thinking about it, Ma Chao added: "My Ma clan is willing to help Great Xia and take Liangzhou!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Jue's eyes condensed slightly, this Ma Chao, the heart of the summer, is not so resolute, and it doesn't seem that he wants to take refuge in himself.

Sipping a little tea, Liu Jue smiled a little: "Although Lone is in Chang'an, he is not ignorant of the affairs of Liangzhou. Han Sui, as long as I exert my strength in Liangzhou Xia Jun, I will definitely be able to get rid of it. ”

The meaning is obvious, Xia Jun is cold, there is not much difference between you and Ma Chao. Staring at Ma Chao's eyes, Liu Jue continued: "Moreover, the army's soldiers and horses are the important weapons of the country, and the transfer of every soldier and soldier requires the approval of the father and the emperor, and the imperial court needs to surrender the edict. ”

With a sinking heart, Ma Chao arched his hand and asked, "Can His Royal Highness King Zhou introduce one or two to His Majesty?" I can't thank you very much in the next! ”

Liu Jue showed a thoughtful expression, and Ma Chao waited for his reply.

"Yes!" Finally, Liu Jue opened his mouth and looked outside: "It's still early, Meng Qi, how about entering the palace with loneliness?" ”

"Your Highness!"

......

All the way into the imperial palace, Liu Jue found that something was wrong, and the atmosphere in the palace seemed a little calm. He pulled over a eunuch and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?" What happened in the palace? ”

Respectfully glanced at Liu Jue, and said in a low voice: "Concubine He Hui, I didn't survive, Fang went!" ”

"What about Your Majesty?" Liu Jue frowned.

"I've heard the news and left!" Glancing around, he shut up and hurried away.

This concubine Hui is the title given by Liu Yuan to Empress He, after moving south to Chang'an, she fell ill not long after, and she couldn't afford to get sick. When I was in Meiji before, I was not accustomed to the water and soil, and after two years, I became more and more unsupportable, and today, I have directly shaved it.

"The timing is a little unfortunate, my father and concubine died of illness, this ......" Turning to look at Ma Chao, Liu Jue seemed a little "embarrassed".

"Let's retire first!" Sighing in his heart, Ma Chao arched his hand.

"Hmm!" Liu Jue thought about it for a while: "Meng Qi will wait here for a while, and go and see the situation first!" ”

Liu Jue strolled away, leaving only Ma Chao standing alone in front of the Xuanshu Palace, full of palace halls, Ma Chao couldn't help but feel his insignificance. Without Liu Jue in front, the guards around him all looked at him as if they were not good, and they were very vigilant. Ma Chao knew that as long as he made the slightest move, he would inevitably be attacked.

In Concubine Hui's bedroom, He had already closed his eyes, describing it as withered, it was really unbelievable that the gorgeous and unparalleled beauty at the beginning did not have any face now.

Liu Yuan stood silently in front of the couch, his expression indifferent, but he couldn't help but feel stunned in his heart. At the beginning, Liu Yuan was so fond of He, and he satisfied his possessiveness and curiosity.

It's just that with the absence of Nianhua and the passing of Shaohua, his interest in the He family has gradually faded. Just like Concubine and Zhen's mother Zhang, Liu Yuan likes, but he doesn't like "old women".

Over the years, she has indeed been snubbed, and she has almost never been lucky. Now that it has passed away, Liu Yuan felt a little sad in his heart.

On the side of the couch, the son of Queen He, the prince Liu Xun, was crying, very sad, and the tears couldn't be stopped at all.

The atmosphere in the hall was even more sad, the queen Liu Zhi and the concubines who had heard the news had arrived, and quietly glanced at Liu Yuan, looked at He's body, and their faces were different, and they didn't say anything.

Liu Zhi took the initiative to step forward, took Liu Xun in her arms, stroked his back, and comforted him. With support, Liu Xun was even happier, and tears wet Liu Zhi's clothes.

"Liu Xun, I will be raised by you in the future!" Liu Yuan finally spoke, and instructed Liu Zhi: "Take him down first!" ”

"No!" led Liu Xun to retreat.

"Spread the edict, Concubine He, who has served the king wholeheartedly for many years, and will be buried with the rites of the princes and kings, so that the Ministry of Rites can prepare!"

Glancing at the others, Liu Yuan said coldly: "Stand down!" ”

Staring at He's body again, Liu Yuan turned around and walked out of the hall. When he met Liu Jue, he frowned: "What are you doing here?" ”

Seeing that Liu Yuan's face was not very good-looking, Liu Yu hurriedly bowed and said: "Erchen heard that Concubine He Hui was here, and he came to ......."

"You're well-informed! Well? Liu Yuan scolded.

"Father misunderstood!" Liu Jue was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down: "Erchen has something to enter the palace, and I just heard about it!" ”

The scrutinizing gaze swept around Liu Jue several times, and said indifferently: "Get up!" ”

Crossing Liu Jue and going all the way to the Xuanshu Palace, Liu Jue got up quickly, followed closely by his side, and cautiously comforted: "Please also ask my father to mourn!" ”

sighed and looked around, the summer was scorching, and the bright sun shone on his body, which seemed to dispel a lot of gloom in his heart. The right hand was raised slightly: "What happened to you entering the palace?" ”

Seeing that Liu Yuan had returned to normal, Liu Yuan's heart was completely relaxed, and he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately said: "There is Ma Chao, the son of Ma Teng in Liangzhou, who entered Chang'an, and wants to borrow troops to attack Han Sui to take revenge, and ask to go to the Erchen Mansion." Erchen Sima has a certain prestige in Liangzhou, and Ma Chao is a young hero, who can be used to report to the palace! ”

"Ma Chao!" Hearing the name of the Five Tiger Generals, Liu Yuan was a little surprised, but it didn't stop there, by now, Liu Yuan no longer needed to behave eagerly for the sake of a mere "famous general".

"Where are the others?"

"The retainer has led him into the palace!" Seeing that Liu Yuan didn't show much interest, Liu Yu replied: "If my father doesn't want to see it, my son will bring it back to the palace for the time being?" ”

"Nope! Let's see! Liu Yuan quickened his pace.

Ma Chao waited a little irritable, extremely uncomfortable, fighting on the battlefield, did not make him feel so much pressure. Finally, there was movement in the distance, seeing Liu Yu waiting for a man in an emperor's robe to enter, and seemed to glance at him, Ma Chao's figure was shocked, and he knew that it must be Liu Yuan, the emperor of Xia.

"Your Majesty has an edict to summon Ma Chao into the palace to meet him!" The eunuch shouted.

"You are Ma Chao!" Liu Yuan sat upright on the desk, his eyes on Ma Chao, who had entered steadily.

"Back to Your Majesty, it's down there!" Ma Chao secretly glanced at the situation in the hall.

Liu Yuan looked at himself with a serious face, Liu Yu stood respectfully on the side of the hall, as well as a kitten, and on both sides of Liu Yuan's imperial case, there was a eunuch standing on each side.

"After General Fubo, he is really talented, heroic and extraordinary!" Liu Yuan squinted his eyes and asked, "Your father's death, you have been hiding in the Xiqiang tribe for several years. For so long, why did you come to Chang'an at this time? ”

Ma Chao was silent, not knowing how to answer Liu Yuan's question. I can't say it, I didn't look down on Hu Xia before.

"I heard that you want to borrow troops to avenge your father?" Liu Yuan asked.

"Over the years, I have seen the enemy and the world is free, and I am powerless to fight it, and I deeply hate myself for being incompetent. If he can borrow the Xia army and destroy Han Sui, Ma Chao will make a grass ring to repay His Majesty! Seeing Liu Yuan get straight to the point, Ma Chao finally got excited, bent down and pleaded.
