The southwest side of the front hall of Weiyang has a warehouse pond and a gradual platform, this pond garden area is the "imperial garden" of the palace, the pavilions and corridors are connected, and the green trees are lush and shady. The surrounding piano sound is pleasant, like melodious, Cai Yan is sitting aside, his hands are constantly dancing and playing, and his expression is very serious.

Liu Yuan walked in a clearing and danced in harmony, the movements were not fast, and there was no routine, just simple stabbing, splitting, teasing, picking, how to be comfortable. After about two quarters of an hour's work, Liu Yuan put away his sword and stood, sweating.

"Listening to the sound of Zhaoji's piano, my mind is smooth, and I enjoy it. This coarse person is lonely, and he feels the taste of it! Sitting next to Cai Yan, Liu Yuan praised loudly.

Cai Yan stopped the movements in his hand, ordered the maid to put away Aiqin, took a white towel from Zhang Rang's hand, and wiped the sweat on Liu Yuan's face in person. The fragrance hit, looking at Cai Yan's virtuous appearance, Liu Yuan felt some emotion in his heart, and also enjoyed it. Cai Zhaoji, who is "famous all over the world", is now living in the summer palace and has become his Liu Yuan's confiner.

"King, in addition to working hard for state affairs, you still need to take care of your health." Cai Yanyu's hand stroked the silk hair on Liu Yuan's temples a few times, and gently persuaded him.

"Is Lone old?" Believing that he felt Cai Yan's "pity" for him, Liu Yuan was not angry, but sighed and asked.

"The king is in the prime of life, the dragon and the tiger are stepping, in order to dominate the world, and he has never been old. It's just that it's too hard. Cai Yan gently stuck behind Liu Yuan, and did not dislike his stinky sweat. His hands pinched his temples for a while, and the jade hands that played the piano were not very comfortable for Liu Yuan, but Liu Yuan still enjoyed it.

"I won't be waiting for the opportunity!" Liu Yuan chuckled, reached out and pressed Cai Yanyu's hand: "Zhao Ji go first, stay alone for a while." ”

Knowing that Liu Yuan was going to be a director again, Cai Yan got up and bowed: "The concubine retires!" ”

"Zhang Rang! What's going on with the Black Guard? Liu Yuan picked up a copy of the Han Calendar and studied it, and his voice drifted lightly to Zhang Rang's ears.

Hearing this, Zhang Rang's eyebrows fluttered, and he immediately said: "Now there are hundreds of people under the control of the upper and lower shadows, all of whom have been carefully selected by the slaves, and Jing Zhaoyin is under surveillance. ”

"Yes, with Chang'an Jingzhao as the center, it continues to spread outward!" Liu Yuan suddenly raised his head and looked directly at Zhang Rang, which made him startled, and then heard Liu Yuan say coldly: "The purpose of my formation of the black-clothed guard is to monitor the Quartet, especially the Han Realm. Don't cross the line, otherwise don't blame Lonely's hot hand! ”

"The slaves know, they don't dare to act rashly, everything is subject to the king's edict, for the king's eagle dog!" Zhang Rang hurriedly expressed his loyalty.

Within the Xia Kingdom, there are secret guards to monitor the country, which was previously separated and independent from the hands of Qiu Linju, but the composition of the personnel is mostly composed of Hu people, and the center of gravity is on the Hetao and Monan grasslands.

With the coming of the south, taking this large piece of Han land, in order to strengthen the control of the newly conquered land, the black guard came into being. Liu Yuan's move, without concealing it, was to carry out spy rule with great fanfare. It seems that this kind of bomb suppresses the country and replaces the army with secret services, and the effect is much better.

And with Zhang Rang, this old gelding does have a wrist, ruthless enough, refined enough, and capable enough; Both, this person has been with Liu Yuan for five years, and he has always been decent, knows current affairs, knows how to advance and retreat, and has temporarily won Liu Yuan's trust, and he uses it easily.

Since the establishment of the Black Guard, there have been small achievements, and since this year, there have been several riots around Chang'an, which were quickly detected and forcibly suppressed before the chaos dissipated.

"What's been going on in Chang'an City lately?" Liu Yuan stretched and asked with a yawn.

"The Guanzhong family has settled down a lot, and they don't dare to be hostile to the king anymore." Zhang Rang raised his hand and said, "There is one thing, Huangfu Song, died of illness." ”

"Oh?" Liu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "When did it happen?" ”

"I was breathless last night. This morning, the Huangfu Mansion has been dressed in mourning clothes, and the mourning hall has been built to summon souls. Zhang Rang replied. Huangfu Song, thinking that he didn't deal with him at the beginning, and repeatedly made trouble for him, but now he is desolate, and he is also a little emotional.

Liu Yuan thought for a while, and made an order: "Huangfu Yi really has the strategy of a general, his military exploits are impressive, and his fame shocks the world, and this hero is also." Spread the edict of loneliness, so that in Chang'an City, civil and military officials, family members, all went to mourn to express their condolences! ”

"The king is merciful, and Huangfu Song has a lot of hostile intentions towards Great Xia, and has repeatedly rejected it. The king does not remember the old grudges, he is really a benevolent king! Zhang Rang patted his ass when he heard this.

Liu Yuan chuckled and shook his head, if he was Renjun, then this standard would be too low.

……

In the Huangfu Mansion, the whole is white, the funeral bed is set up, and the sound of crying and mourning is endless. Under Liu Yuan's order, there were many dignitaries and nobles in the mansion. On the mourning hall, Huangfu Song's son, Huangfu Chen, and his son, Huangfu Li, were all dressed in filial piety clothes, kneeling on one side, and saluting the guests who came and went.

Yang Biao's father and son entered the hall, held incense, and bowed. glanced at Huangfu Song's spiritual position, and sighed silently in his heart, this old minister of the Emperor Han is going to be alone.

Turning his head to look at Huangfu Chen, he said in a deep voice of relief: "Jian Shou Xian nephew, the deceased is gone, and I still want to mourn." Yizhen is gone, Huangfu clan, you still need your brother to support it! ”

Huangfu Chen raised his eyes and looked at Yang Biao, his face was very worried, and he bowed to Yang Biao: "Thank you Wen Xiangong, the funeral will be added, and the little nephew will not be able to pay the full ceremony." ”

"It's okay!"

"Father, as soon as the old general Huangfu goes, the Huangfu clan goes to the Optimus Pillar, but I am afraid that it will sink." The father and son walked slowly all the way, and Yang Xiu whispered to Yang Biao.

"No!" Yang Biao glanced at the surroundings and replied: "With his righteous and true temperament and attitude, facing King Xia, sooner or later he will be completely angered. The future of the Huangfu clan is worrying, and now that it is gone, it is not necessarily a bad thing, and the two brothers Huangfu Chen and Huangfu Li are also considered handsome. If you can know the time, the Huangfu clan will not necessarily decline. ”

Yang Xiu thought for a while in his eyes, nodded, and looked at his father. Feeling that he was still too tender, he complimented: "Father is right." ”

After that, Fu Wan, Chun Yujia, Zhang Xi, Zhong Xuan and others came to the door one by one, Li Ru, Jia Xu, and Duan Xuan all passed through the house one by one, and so many people saw them off, and Huangfu Song's death was not bad.

"The king has arrived!" In the afternoon, there was a shouting from outside.

A steward stepped up to the hall in a few steps and reported to Huangfu Chen. Huangfu Chen's expression froze, and he didn't move, but the Huangfu Li next to him touched Huangfu Chen twice: "Jianshou, King Xia came to condole, let's go out to greet him in person." You are now the lord of the Huangfu clan, and you have to think about the entire family! ”

Huangfu Chen's eyes condensed slightly when he heard this, and then he got up and went out with his brother to welcome Liu Yuan.

Liu Yuan came in person, and set off another wave, and Huangfu Song's attitude towards Liu Yuan was well known to everyone in Chang'an. This Xia Wang did not remember the old evils, and came to pay his respects, so that many people praised the Xia King's "benevolence". All the way in, his ears moved slightly, and he could hear the "praise" of himself, Liu Yuan knew that this was deliberately said by those people to himself.

Under the greeting of the Huangfu brothers, entering the mourning hall, Liu Yuan bowed to the emperor's funeral seat very solemnly. Silently recited in his heart: "You died just right, and after a while, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to endure your disobedience!" ”
