In the Chongde Hall, on the high dragon chair, there was a pale emperor. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info He's not very old, probably in his thirties, but he looks a little old. The dark circles under his eyes that glowed with blue silk proved that last night, this Ninety-Five Venerable seemed to be having fun again, resulting in lack of sleep. People are like this, if you don't sleep well, you won't be in good spirits, and if you're not in good spirits, you'll be in a bad mood, and emperors are no exception.

Emperor Ling of Han himself was not a diligent emperor, and it was not good to go to court if he was in a bad mood. But this day is a big court meeting, and it can't be done if you don't go there. So, he looked forward to ending this boring court meeting early.

"There is something to do, and there is nothing to retreat." As soon as the ministers of civil and military affairs stood still and finished saluting, Liu Hong set the tone for today's court meeting.

Those who can mix in the court are all human spirits. What's more, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the political environment was harsh. Those who are upright and kind, who can't pat horses and speak, and who are not good at observing words and feelings, were either killed by the eunuchs or expelled from the temple by the Qingliu party. Seeing the state of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, the civil and military officials kept silent, and the sky fell and there were three dukes on top, what were they worried about?

If no one speaks, the pilgrimage will be drawn in this way. He Jin hurriedly gave Zhang Rang beside Emperor Han Ling's side, Zhang Rang squinted his eyes and found that there was a strange young man standing next to He Jin, judging from his appearance and figure, he was eight points similar to the great general He Jin. With a roll of his eyes, he guessed who this young man was.

"Your Majesty, He Xian, the loyal and brave general, has returned to Beijing to report on his work!" Zhang Rang reminded Liu Hongdao in a low voice.

Liu Hong supported his chin with one hand, he was drowsy, but when he heard Zhang Rang's reminder, he suddenly came to his senses: "Where is it?" Where is Xiao He Aiqing? ”

"Junior minister He Xian, see His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Your Majesty is wise and powerful, mighty and domineering, long live long live, long live, long live!" He Xian hurriedly stepped out, pouted his buttocks, and performed a standard kneeling salute.

Taiwei Cao Song, Situ Yuan Kui, Taifu Yuan Feng and others heard this, and immediately gasped, this young man is too shameless, he will pat the emperor when he comes up, this is the style of eunuchs!

Then I took a fancy to the regular servants Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong, and I was also stunned when I heard this, and my eyes looking at He Xian were full of the meaning of "bone Qingqi", this young man has a great future as a eunuch! It's a pity that his father is the general He Jin, otherwise both of them would have moved their minds and wanted this young man to be recruited under his command and trained to become his successor. Eunuchs, like everyone in martial arts, need young people with talent and intelligence and clear bones to inherit their own skills.

When Liu Hong heard this, he was really happy. For this young man who has been willful, Liu Hong has always maintained considerable attention. The life of the emperor is lonely, and there are often times when he can't be interested. The appearance of He Xian, for Liu Hong, is like a living toy. Four years ago, He Xian was born. Liu Hong held a gambling mentality, and promoted He Xian, who was only twelve years old, to the lieutenant of Nanyang County as if he were joking. Liu Hong didn't hope that He Xian could make much credit and exert much effort in quelling the Nanyang Yellow Turban Rebellion, purely after hearing a bunch of bad news, he rarely heard a good news, so he took this good news as auspicious to comfort himself. What he didn't expect was that this auspicious rui couldn't help but disappoint him, and he assisted Zhu Jun step by step to pacify the Nanyang Yellow Turban thieves, and then broke the Jizhou Black Mountain thieves and successfully exterminated the Youzhou rebels, which can really be described as a repeated victory!

In Liu Hong's view, this pile of achievements is just like what he once fantasized about when he was young. Ride horses and fight swords, command thousands of armies and horses, and take the enemy's head among the ten thousand armies. At that time, Liu Hong was not an emperor, but only a marquis of the Jiedu Pavilion. It's a pity that Liu Hong stepped on the biggest shit luck in the world. ascended to the sky in one step, directly became the emperor, and there was no possibility of promotion. Except for the founding Gaozu and Emperor Guangwu, the emperors of the Han Dynasty were strictly forbidden to lead troops to battle. As a result, Liu Hong had already given up those fantasies and put all his thoughts on wine and beauty.

And He Xian's rise, especially under the situation of Liu Hong breaking the routine and being promoted, shows Liu Hong's unique vision and courage! Whenever he heard the good news about He Xian, the expressions of the civil and military officials under the court were so surprised that Liu Hong felt comfortable in his heart. He Xian, from a certain point of view, is a down-to-earth protégé of the Son of Heaven!

"Let's get flat!" Liu Hong looked at his "protégé", and his eyes shone with an unconcealed appreciation.

"General Xiao He is really heroic! No wonder I can win those thieves for me! Liu Hong praised happily.

"Your Majesty has praised it! The reason why the minister was able to defeat those thieves was naturally the credit of His Majesty! He Xian's face did not change his color, his heart did not beat, and he looked like a shameless traitor.

"Oh? What do you mean by that? General Xiao He solves my doubts! Liu Hong was stunned and thought it was very interesting.

"Sun Tzu's Art of War has clouds: so know the generals of the soldiers, and the people are the commanders. The lord of the security of the country also. For ordinary soldiers, the minister is a general; But for His Majesty, the ministers are His Majesty's soldiers and pawns. From the moment His Majesty ordered the ministers to be in charge of the war in Youzhou, in fact, His Majesty's soldiers had already charged forward! Your Majesty is a general, and who in the world can match you? ”

Liu Hong laughed when he heard this, knowing that He Xian was talking nonsense and patting his own horses, but Liu Hong liked this very much. What emperor doesn't want to be invincible?

"And how do you explain the defeats?" Liu Hong was still unsatisfied and continued to ask.

"The way of the battlefield is changing rapidly! The general is not wrong, but the war is still lost, it is not allowed by heaven, not the crime of war! ”

Yuan Feng, the servant, has a relatively strong temperament, and when he heard He Xian's flattery, his mouth was crooked. If it weren't for Situ Yuan Kui who knew his temperament well and kept giving him eyes, he wouldn't have to worry about it. Yuan Feng jumped out a long time ago and angrily scolded this traitor!

"I didn't expect that General Xiao He was not only proficient in martial arts and good at fighting, but also an interesting person, which won my heart! Reward! Rewards! Liu Hong patted the dragon chair and said happily, "Let me think about it, what kind of official is it good to give you?" ”

"Your Majesty, by all means!" Yuan Feng, who couldn't bear it, finally couldn't help but jump out, "Your Majesty, the loyal and brave Zhonglang General He Xian is only sixteen years old, and he has already become a member of the imperial court with a rank of two thousand stones, so it is really not suitable for him to be promoted again!" ”

Liu Hong's face sank, and he was finally happy, but he was disturbed by this old man Yuan.

He Xian looked at He Jin, and He Jin replied softly that this was the servant Yuan Feng.

He Xian hated Yuan Feng's old man in his heart, but he could only say: "His Majesty the Great Emperor Shengming!" These credits of the ministers are all small merits, and they can't be put on the stage, and they really can't bear higher official positions! ”
