Chapter 123: The Emperor's Tomb Oath

After the ceremony, both officials and soldiers stood there quietly, looking at Liu Chan standing on the altar, and the surroundings seemed quiet. [Ran^Text^Library] []

Liu Chan slowly let go of Zhang Yingying's hand, walked to the front of the altar, glanced at the officials and soldiers standing quietly below, and then fell on Zhuge Liang at the front.

Zhuge Liang looked at each other, nodded to Liu Chan, and realized that the other party was speaking.

Liu Chan calmed down, still looked at the people in the audience, and said in a deep voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, it has been a year since the death of the first emperor, and this year, our Han has finally survived with the concerted efforts of all the adults, this is the blessing of the people, my luck!" ”

All the ministers hung their heads, quietly listening to Liu Chan's words, thinking about the loss of Jingzhou experienced by the Han Dynasty this year, the fiasco of Yiling, the young age, and the increasingly rampant anti-thieves in Nanzhong, the Han Kingdom is like a stone on the wheel of rolling history, crumbling.

"I am young, but fortunately, I have the help of my father, Li Shangshu, General Zhao Yun and all the ministers, and I am very grateful in my heart!" Liu Chan said this, and bowed slightly to the ministers under the altar.

"But!"

Liu Chan's words turned, and a trace of sternness flashed in his eyes, "There are also Jiang Qing and others who destroy the dynasty, like this kind of thief, I will definitely meet one and kill one another, with the spirit of Emperor Gao!" ”

The officials under the altar couldn't help but tremble, and seemed to remember the scene when Liu Chan personally cut off Jiang Qing's head under the palace hall despite the dissuasion of the prime minister, and they could now have no doubt that Liu Chan did not have such courage.

"The ministers should lead by example and restore the unification of the Han family!" Zhuge Liang suddenly spoke loudly to Liu Chan.

When the officials heard Zhuge Liang's statement, they also expressed their attitude to Liu Chan in unison.

Liu Chan nodded, and continued: "Although our Han is slowly recovering, the thieves in Nanzhong took advantage of my father's return to heaven and took advantage of my young age to collude and act as traitors, causing our Han people to live in a difficult situation, you say, what should I do?!" ”

Zhao Yun strode from the side at this time, knelt on one knee, and arched his hand: "Although Zilong is old, he will not change his will, and he is willing to personally ask for the thieves in Nanzhong for His Majesty!" To report the peace of the Han room! ”

"Fourth uncle, please get up!" Liu Chan hurriedly took two more steps towards the edge of the altar, and his heart was greatly moved.

At this time, Zhang Bao and Guan Ping also walked out of the team and saluted Liu Chan and Zhao Yun.

Zhang Bao patted his chest and said, "Your Majesty! Zhang Bao is not good at reading military books, but he has some strength, and he is willing to give His Majesty the vanguard and crusade against the thieves in Nanzhong! ”

Guan Ping bowed to Liu Chan silently and did not speak, but he showed with his actions that he obeyed Liu Chan's instructions.

"Good!"

Liu Chan felt for a while in his heart, and shouted: "Our Han has the full support of the ministers and the brave charge of the generals, I am grateful in my heart!" Very relieved! ”

"Crusade against the thieves!"

"Forever Protect the Han Room!"

The soldiers listened to His Majesty's words, and then saw that the generals they respected were petitioning in front of His Majesty's eyes, and their hearts became even more excited, and they all held the weapons in their hands and shouted.

Listening to the roar of the soldiers lining up and fighting high, Liu Chan's heart couldn't help but become warmer, and he slowly narrowed his eyes and said: "Pass on my order, Zhao Tong will lead the forbidden army to guard Chengdu, and the Baier Army and the rest of the generals will follow me and General Li Yan to fight in Nanzhong!" ”

"Ahh

The officials were in an uproar in surprise, and they all said: "Your Majesty must not! Your Majesty is the body of the Son of Heaven, and you must not conquer it yourself! ”

Liu Chan waved his sleeves and said, "I know that all the ** Qing are concerned, but Nanzhong is a trouble in my heart, and I must get rid of it personally!" ”

At this time, Zhuge Liang, who had been silent, walked out slowly, bowed to Liu Chan, and said: "Your Majesty, there are old ministers in Chengdu, don't worry about grain, grass and military resources, Your Majesty just go and kill the enemy!" ”

Hearing Zhuge Liang's words, the officials were even more stunned, obviously this was discussed between His Majesty and the Prime Minister, otherwise Prime Minister Zhuge would not have supported His Majesty so much, and he would have to go forward to express his position.

Liu Chan nodded to Zhuge Liang gratefully, then looked at the officials and said, "You don't need to persuade you anymore, I have made up my mind!" ”

The hundreds of officials were also silent at this time, bowed their heads and bowed: "The ministers wish Your Majesty and all the soldiers a triumphant return!" ”

"Hahaha!" Liu Chan raised his head and laughed, "General Zhao Yun listens to the order!" ”

"The last general!" Zhao Yun shook his silver beard and saluted solemnly.

"I ordered you to be the commander of the White Ear Army, and lead the White Ear Army to personally crusade against Nanzhong with me!"

"The last general commands!"

Zhao Yun got up slowly, and the soldiers on the side hurriedly ran over with the handsome flag.

One is a big banner with the word "Zhao" dancing with dragons and phoenixes, and the other is a military flag with the word "white ear" embroidered with the word "white ear".

Zhao Yun squinted his eyes at the two sides of the atmosphere in front of him, and shouted: "The white-eared army listens to the order!" Accompany Ben Shuai to conquer the thieves in Nanzhong! ”

After Zhao Yun finished speaking, he saluted Liu Chan, Zhuge Liang and the ministers respectively, and then walked under the emperor's mausoleum under the leadership of a group of soldiers, and the Bai'er army also turned the team and followed Zhao Yun slowly towards the outside of Chengdu.

Liu Chan watched Zhao Yun and the soldiers drive away, and his heart was settled, and then he suddenly turned around and saw Zhang Yingying standing beside him, dressed in gorgeous robes.

Perhaps because Zhang Yingying was used to arguing every day, the other party was suddenly silent for so long, and Liu Chan was a little uncomfortable.

Liu Chan smiled slightly at the other party and said, "Yingying." ”

Zhang Yingying was still silent, looked at Liu Chan, and said, "Adou, why didn't you tell me when you went to war?" ”

"I"

Liu Chan was speechless for a while, he was also afraid that Zhang Yingying would be worried, so when he discussed the expedition to Nanzhong with Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun, he didn't tell Zhang Yingying, but at this time, looking at Zhang Yingying, who was silent, he regretted it a little.

Liu Chan walked forward and hurriedly explained, "I'm not afraid that you will worry! Don't worry, I'm not going to be fine. ”

But as Liu Chan spoke, Zhang Yingying's tears fell suddenly, and she looked at Liu Chan with red eyes and said: "Don't explain, Yingying is not an unreasonable woman, my mother said it, the husband is ambitious!" ”

"Yingying"

Liu Chan's eyes froze, and his heart felt warm, and he couldn't help but step forward and hug this woman who shared the joys and sorrows with him.

was suddenly hugged by Liu Chan, Zhang Yingying's body couldn't help but tremble in her heart, she could feel Liu Chan's ** protection for herself, somehow, tears spilled out of her eyes, and gradually wet a large piece of imperial robe on Liu Chan's shoulder.

Liu Chan didn't care, gently leaned into the other party's ear, and said softly: "Wait for me to come back!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhang Yingying tightly clutched Liu Chan's imperial robe.

"Alas!" Liu Chan sighed softly, easily opened the other party, then turned his head and nodded Zhuge Liang hugged his fist, and said, "Father, after Adou leaves, Chengdu will entrust you with your troubles!" ”

Zhuge Liang was not as firm as he was just now, looking at Liu Chan with a young face, his heart ached, and he turned his head to look at the stone gate of the closed imperial tomb in front of him, pursed his lips and nodded.

"Take care, Your Majesty! If there is any emergency, please send me a message to discuss with me! After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he solemnly saluted Liu Chan.

Liu Chan nodded deeply, glanced at Zhang Yingying again, smiled gently at the other party, and then turned to look at Zhang Bao Guan Ping and said, "Let's go!" ”

"Mother, Prime Minister! We say goodbye! Zhang Bao and Guan Ping saluted Zhang Yingying and Zhuge Liang, and then walked over to the emperor's tomb with Liu Chan leading a group of forbidden troops.

Looking at Liu Chan's back as he walked farther and farther, Zhao Tong stepped forward and bowed to Zhang Yingying: "The last general will send Niangniang back to the palace." ”

"There is General Law!"

Zhang Yingying stretched out the fingers of her slender hand to wipe the tears on her face, nodded to Zhao Tong, and then turned her head to look at Zhuge Liang and said, "Father, Yingying has returned to the palace first, you should go back early!" ”

Zhuge Liang settled down, walked to Zhang Yingying, and said, "Thank you for your concern, and the minister will go back." ”

Zhang Yingying nodded, and under the escort of Zhao Tong, she also slowly walked towards the emperor's mausoleum.

At this time, the lively imperial mausoleum, with the soldiers and officials left, returned to its original silent appearance, and the surroundings were quiet, only the willow branches that had just sprouted after the spring breeze were swaying and fluttering.

Zhuge Liang knelt down deeply towards the stone gate in front of the emperor's mausoleum this time, he was already cold-faced, but a stone gate deeply separated people into two worlds.

Zhuge Liang looked at the stone gate in front of him and muttered to himself, "Lord, Your Majesty needs to exercise, Liang let Your Majesty go, Liang didn't dare to forget the grand appointment, fortunately, fortunately, fortunately, our Majesty did not disappoint Liang and the Lord, this is, the blessing of our Han!" ”

Zhuge Liang had already stopped crying as he spoke, only the incense candles that were still burning had been slowly burning in the incense burner on the altar.

At this time, on the official road from Yong'an City to Chengdu City, a team of almost 300 cavalry, the same military robe, but behind them they were carrying a long knife, and they drove towards Chengdu City
