Zhang Cang stayed in Dongjun and did not implement any measures, it was completely in accordance with the arrangement left by Lu Yan, the only change was that the county government where Lu Yan lived was given to Zhang Cang, in addition, Zhang Cang's task was to record the things done in Dongjun, and then return to the court at the end of summer.

As for Lu Yan's heart, even if he was not angry, he could only take the carriage towards Linzi, and he did not bring any attendants except for Yingbu, a groom.

Lu Yan also knew that it was Yingzheng who tested himself, and sooner or later he would be recalled to the DPRK, so for now, it was better to keep a low profile before he was caught by Li Si.

There is a Huaiyin between Linzi and Dongjun, which can't help but remind Lu Yan of Han Xin, who gave books back then, and I don't know how my life is now, anyway, it's not bad to go back to Linzi for a day or two, so it's okay to go and see.

"Brother, drive to Huaiyin County first, I want to see an old man." Lu Yan thought in his heart, so he opened the curtain and said.

Yingbu nodded immediately, "Master Hou, how can you have an old man in Huaiyin, is it the person you made friends with when Lord Hou didn't have a career?" There was some curiosity in his words.

"That's not it, I was just a young master at the beginning, and when I saw that the young man was lonely, I gave him some coils and military books, just hoping that he would study hard." Lu Yan recalled.

"The front is the boundary of Dongjun, and you can reach Huaiyin County in less than two days, so don't worry about it." Yingbu held the reins of the horse and tried to drive the horse forward.

And at this moment in Huaiyin County, Han's mother was lying on the bed on her side, her face was sallow, not that she had no money to eat, but that she couldn't eat food, and her body was gradually losing weight and losing her complexion.

Han Xin also knelt in front of the couch every day, inevitably feeling a little sad in his heart, in order to prevent Han Xin from doing this, Han's mother tried to eat as much food as possible every day, although the stomach was uncomfortable, but still endured the pain.

The next day, Han Xin was reading the art of war next to Han's mother, Han's mother's face suddenly became very embarrassed, her hands covered her abdomen, her face continued to ooze with sweat, and she accidentally knocked off the teacup when she turned sideways.

Seeing this, Han Xin immediately dropped the military letter and moved the stove to Han's mother's side, "Repeat, I have no regrets in my heart, but I feel unbearable pain in my abdomen." ”

Han's mother grabbed Han Xin's hands as she spoke, although she had already taken out the red mark, Han Xin just sobbed beside her, "Mother, it's going to be fine, bear with me for a while, I'll bring hot water." ”

"No need, I know my fate soon, after I die, the filial piety period expires, you go to find Lu Gongzi, I heard that he returned from the southern expedition to Baiyue, has been named Pingnan Hou, there is still food and clothing at home, if it is not enough, you will go out to chop wood and fish, temporarily make a living, leave Huaiyin at the end of the three-year period, ask Lu Gongzi for help, get an official and a half position, and inherit the Han family." Han Mu just gasped when she spoke, very uncomfortable.

"Mother, you can rest for a while, the children know, I'll go get the medicine." Han Xin said with a little choked up, hurriedly made the bed for Han's mother, and walked towards the kitchen.

Late that night, the dogs in the village barked and the chickens crowed, and they did not stop until they were ugly, and Han Xin lay in the inner room, tossing and turning all night, always feeling that something had happened.

Early the next morning, Han Xin came to Han's mother's room and found that his mother had no breath, so he immediately fell on his mother and cried.

Later in the evening, Han Xin took out all his belongings, chose a vacant land according to feng shui, and asked the township to choose a day to be buried, and at this time, Lu Yan also rushed from Dongjun to Huaiyin City.

Although it is a small county town, Lu Yan is not good at taking a carriage into the city, so he has to leave the carriage at an inn outside the city and enter the city on foot, while Yingbu is to protect Lu Yan and protect him.

"Master Hou, why are all these people rushing towards that alley?" Yingbu asked with some confusion.

Lu Yan is familiar with poetry and etiquette, so he naturally knows that this is the funeral process, but looking at this location, it seems that it is Han Xin's hometown in the past, which can't help but make Lu Yan frown a little.

"Brother, come with me." Lu Yan said very softly, and at the same time walked towards the alley, Yingbu was curious, and when he saw Lu Yan walking towards it, he naturally followed him.

Han Xin is kneeling in the living room at the moment, keeping a wake for Han's mother, and now the funeral at home is helped by the surrounding villages, and Han Xin only needs to keep a vigil in front of the coffin.

The closer he got to the depths of the alley, the more strange Yingbu felt, and the white sails in the distance had been erected, and the villagers were coming and going back and forth from the broken courtyard in front of them.

"Master Hou, this is obviously a family that does white things, and it is a filthy place, let's leave quickly." Yingbu said with some disdain.

Lu Yan didn't hear what Yingbu was saying, but just looked at the courtyard with some loss, "It must be that Han's mother has died, since you and I are here, let's go in and help, by the way, you go and invite the county magistrate." ”

"Master Hou, isn't this very good?" Yingbu said with some hesitation.

"As the Marquis of Pingnan, can't I let a county magistrate come and sacrifice the dead?" Lu Yan said with some frowns.

Yingbu scratched his head a little helplessly, "Of course this is okay, I'll go and ask for it, Master Hou himself has to be careful." With that, he immediately ran towards the county government.

Lu Yan stood at the head of the door, only tied up his long hair with a turban, and at the same time tried his best to make his dress realistic, everyone saw that Lu Yan's appearance was extraordinary, and they didn't dare to come forward to ask, just muttered on the side.

"Tautology, brother is late." Lu Yan shouted very sadly, Han Xin turned around and looked at Lu Yan a little blankly, and instantly became excited.

At the beginning of the spring of 215 BC, Lu Yan was nineteen years old and Han Xin was sixteen years old.

"Brother Ziyu?" Han Xin said in disbelief.

Lu Yan immediately walked to the coffin and bowed to Han's mother three times, and then talked to Han Xin in the back room, it turned out that Han's mother was sick some time ago, and her daily diet gradually shrunk, and she insisted on it for half a year.

"Do you have any plans for the future?" Lu Yan asked with some concern, and at the same time looked at the jade pendant on Han Xin's waist, which was given by him back then, but he didn't expect it to be worn on his waist today.

"Abide by the law of filial piety, after the three-year period, and then make plans, it's just why Brother Ziyu came here." Han Xin said indifferently.

Lu Yan's expression was a little helpless, "I was originally in Dongjun, and the king ordered me to return to the fiefdom, and I was worried about my virtuous brother, so I made a detour, but I didn't expect it to be a step too late." The words are very sad.

"The mother of tautology is naturally like the mother of Ziyu, I will stay in Huaiyin these days, finish everything and then leave, the virtuous brother is also tired, go to rest first, and I will do the rest." Lu Yan said worriedly.

Without waiting for Han Xin to speak, Lu Yan had already wrapped up a white cloth and knelt in front of the spirit, "Brother Ziyu, this." Han Xin looked at Lu Yan a little blankly.

"Alright, you can rest first." Lu Yan said very indifferently.

Han Xin immediately kowtowed to Lu Yan, and walked towards the side room a little tiredly, because of the day of vigil, Han Xin leaned against the pool seat by the wall and fell asleep for a while.
