On a high ground on the shore of the water, Liu Yuan lay on the green turf, smelling the fragrance of grass and soil, and feeling the faint coolness between the veins. Above the blue sky, the white clouds float, the scorching sun hangs high, shining on the face, in addition to the warmth, there is also the "light".

According to the plan, today is the last day for Liu Yuan to stay in the Modong grassland, and under the hillside, Lu Bu led the guards and guards, galloping back and forth. was appointed by Liu Yuan as the general of the guard, also for a "guard", but Lu Bu did not express the slightest dissatisfaction and was willing to accept it. In the Xia Kingdom, there are many people staring at this position, and they all know that the person who can be the general of the Su Guard must be the person whom Emperor Liu Yuan trusts and values very much.

Commanded the eunuch and summoned Lu Bu to come closer.

"Meet Your Majesty!" Lu Bubi saluted respectfully.

Liu Yuan didn't get up, patted his right side, and then pillowed his hands: "Sit!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"The general is getting more and more formal!" Liu Yuan glanced at Lu Bu sideways and chuckled.

"Bongxian! I will return to Chang'an, and the matter of Modong has not yet been decided! Liu Yuan stared at Lu Bu and asked, "In your opinion, up and down Great Xia, who should I be in Modong?" ”

Hearing Liu Yuanzhi's question, Lu Bu was a little surprised, such a thing was actually asked to him. It's not that he is arrogant, it's really a position of power in such a marginal area, and Liu Yuanqian has always been arbitrary, and he has never listened to the opinions of others and hired people.

But now Liu Yuan's question is enough to show the hesitation in Liu Yuan's heart. asked Lu, but Liu Yuan was interested, and he mentioned it casually, and he didn't expect his suggestion.

"Why doesn't Your Majesty send a prince to suppress it?" Lu Bu's voice rang in his ears.

Lu Bu's proposal gave Liu Yuan a wake-up call, and he sat up on the ground, which frightened Lu Bu. Quite surprised, he glanced at Lu Bu: "Feng Xian has given me a wake-up call!" ”

I can't trust my ministers, but I can always believe in my son. The possibility of one's own son rebelling against him is always much less than that of a foreign minister. After thinking about it carefully, Liu Yuan's expression of intention was very obvious. But which son to let guard the grassland, Liu Yuan weighed silently in his heart.

Standing up and patting the grass clippings on his body, Liu Yuan beckoned to the left and right: "Go, go back to the city!" ”

There is a solution to the matter in his heart, and this sun, Liu Yuan is almost in the sun.

"Father!" Liu Yuan picked up the pen and practiced his calligraphy, Liu Shu ran to Liu Yuan with a short breath and called.

Seeing Liu Shu, who was becoming more and more slim, Liu Yuan showed a hint of softness, and the movements in his hands did not stop: "They are all big girls, and they are still jumping off like this." What's the matter? ”

Liu Shu patted his chest and asked anxiously, "Father, I heard that you are going to leave your brother in Xinghe." ”

"Not bad!" Liu Yuan glanced at her.

"How could my father leave my brother alone in this barren land thousands of miles away!" After getting Liu Yuan's affirmation, Liu Shu was even more anxious.

Seeing that Liu Yuan was still practicing his handwriting so leisurely, he couldn't help but step forward and grabbed Liu Yuan's arm: "Please also ask my father to take back his fate!" ”

With a cold expression, Liu Yuan reprimanded: "Military affairs, how can you let a little woman put your beak, is it that I have indulged you too much!" ”

Growing up so big, Liu Yuan has never been so strict with himself, looking at Liu Yuan's cold face like iron, Liu Shu was a little stunned for a while. Then he reacted, a grievance in his heart, his bright eyes were red, and he wanted to cry.

also felt that his reaction was a little too much, Liu Yuan sighed: "Qi'er is also older, his brothers are fighting for Great Xia, and he should also contribute to Great Xia!" ”

"Then let Brother Chen and them come here!" Liu Shu blurted out.

"That's it!" Hearing this, Liu Yuan interrupted her solemnly: "I have already made up my mind about this matter, this is a state matter, not something you can interfere with!" Step aside! ”

Biting his lip, Liu Shu glared at Liu Yuan, turned his head over the mantis, and cried: "No! Your Majesty! ”

Then he trotted out.

Throwing the imperial pen in his hand, Liu Yuan was silent for a while, and smiled bitterly. He can also understand Liu Shu's mood, in the summer palace, she has played and studied with Liu Qi and Liu Rui since childhood, and Liu Qi is her younger brother. Suddenly hearing that Liu Yuan was going to leave him in Xinghe City, it was predictable that he would be unacceptable for a while.

made up his mind to choose a son and stay in Modong to guard the frontier for him, Liu Yuan went through each son in his heart. The three sons who have grown up, Liu Heng and the three of them are old enough, but they are all gradually sealed, not to mention that they are unwilling to stay away from Jingshi, even if someone is willing, Liu Yuan is afraid that he is not too relieved.

counted and counted, and only the two sons of Liu Rui and Liu Qi, who were in moderate age, remained. Liu Rui, if he puts it in Modong, after returning to Chang'an, Liu Yuan's ears will be difficult to clean again. After weighing it for a long time, I chose Liu Qi.

That night, when Liu Yuan summoned Liu Qi, who was driving north, to the front of the king to indicate his purpose, Liu Yuan's surprised expression was still imprinted in Liu Yuan's mind.

did not disappoint Liu Yuan, Liu Xian still looked a little green, his face flashed with firmness, knelt down in front of Liu Yuan, and resolutely promised Liu Yuan that he was willing to stay in Modong and fight for the country.

didn't stay on the grassland for too long, Liu Yuan issued an edict and prepared to leave for Chang'an. Thousands of miles away, it is estimated that it will be the middle of autumn when I return to the capital, and in autumn, there is not much time left before the end of the year.

Liu Qi's stay in Modong has been completely decided and cannot be changed. In the Xia State system, the man is sixteen years old and crowned, and Liu Qi is still almost in time, as a prince, he must strictly follow the etiquette system of the Xia Kingdom.

Before leaving, Liu Yuan directly held a crown ceremony for Liu Qi in advance, so as to be an adult, give the table character Yuan Jue, seal the king, and serve as the governor of Modong. Both the knight and the post mentioned a certain status to Liu Qi, which was not weaker than the three kings of Chen, Zhou, and Zheng in Beijing.

Of course, Liu Yuan would not really let Liu Qi, a weak-crowned young man, take full control of the military and political power in Modong. Yan Rou, Liu Yuan thought of Yan Rou, and issued an order to transfer Yan Rou to the north as the deputy governor, and the general Da Xiling was also sent over to assist Liu Qi. In terms of political affairs, he transferred Hongnong Taishou Li Li to the north. In addition, the generals, schools, officials, and officials under the Governor's Mansion will slowly make up for him later.

Like Yu Linlang, Liu Yuan transferred a group of people to Liu Qi, and the children of the high-ranking families such as the Subu brothers were also among them, and they had the right to practice.

Xinghe City, not far from Youzhou, if the Zhao army is out of the fortress, it can come at dawn and evening, his son is here, and the military strength cannot be weak. Ten thousand five fine cavalry capped, this is Liu Yuan set the number of troops, on the other hand, on the side of Dugusheng in the desert, the town army was reduced to 5,000 troops.

"Yuan Jue, Modong, I'll leave it to you this time! Be careful in everything and listen to your subordinates. Before returning to the south, Liu Yuan called Liu Qi, who was wearing the crown, to his front and admonished.

"Please rest assured!" Liu Qi's face was solemn, and he knelt down and kowtowed to Liu Yuan a few times: "I also ask my father to tell my mother that you don't have to worry about your son, take care of your body." The sons and daughters are in Xinghe, and they will pray for their father, queen and mother day and night! ”

"You've got a heart!" Liu Yuan's reaction to Liu Qi showed a satisfied look.

Liu Shu, who was on the side, was still sulking with Liu Yuan and ignored him. But when he was leaving, he couldn't help it, with red eyes, he pulled Liu Qi, said goodbye, and said goodbye reluctantly.

Liu Rui rode on a horse, and in the guard forest of the guards and guards, he kept turning his head to look at Liu Qi, who was standing at the head of Xinghe City to see off Liu Yuan. Seeing that its figure became smaller and fading, a little envy flashed in his eyes.

He is willing to replace Liu Yuan and guard the frontier for Liu Yuan.
