The spring rain for three consecutive days made the entire Han land wet, and even the official roads in Chengdu began to become muddy. Despite this, from a distance, there is a team of about 2,000 people on the muddy official road of Chengdu, heading in the direction of Chengdu.

In front of the procession were cavalrymen on horses, followed by rows of infantry with neat steps, and large banners with the character "Han" fluttering in the wind. All the soldiers looked solemn, completely ignoring the muddy road, and walked towards the city of Chengdu with slow and heavy steps.

In the middle of this procession, apparently a grand Azusa coffin, pulled by eight tall horses, and on each side of the Azusa coffin walked two people in mourning clothes. The whole team seemed very quiet, only one or two neighing horses were heard from time to time, and in this team, it was also particularly desolate.

This team was Liu Chan and others who escorted Liu Beizi's coffin from the White Emperor City, and the coffin was also Liu Bei, the emperor of the Han State.

Zhuge Liang, who was wearing mourning clothes next to the coffin, looked ahead, and said respectfully to Liu Chan beside him: "Your Highness, you have arrived at Chengdu City in front, and hundreds of civil and military officials are waiting at the city gate." ”

Liu Chan stopped, looked at the outline of Chengdu City in front of him, took a deep breath, nodded to Zhuge Liang with red eyes, and continued to walk forward. Looking at Liu Chan's weak back along the way, Zhuge Liang also sighed and followed closely.

Liu Bei's coffin slowly walked into Chengdu City under the escort of the soldiers, and the officials in front of the city gate saw Liu Bei's coffin crying, and the soldiers also bowed their heads and knelt down, with a sad face.

Liu Chan looked at the officials and soldiers who were crying bitterly, and couldn't help but feel sad again, and his eyes were red and he rushed to Zhuge Liang beside him and asked, "Father, don't you know that my father's imperial tomb is ready?" ”

"It's ready."

Zhuge Liang slowly put the feather fan on his waist and answered with tears in his eyes. Then nodded at Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun understood, beckoned the soldiers to pull Liu Bei's coffin and walked towards the imperial mausoleum, and Liu Chan and the others followed closely.

The imperial mausoleum is on the west side of Chengdu City, everyone Liu Beizi's coffin is placed, Liu Chan kneels quietly next to Liu Bei's coffin, and all the officials come to worship one by one.

Liu Chan silently returned salutes to the officials who came to worship one by one, and when everyone finished worshipping, it was already evening, Huang Hao carefully led Liu Chan, who had walked for a few days and knelt for a day, to the palace to rest.

Liu Chan glanced at Liu Bei's coffin heavily, sighed, and walked towards the palace accompanied by Huang Hao

At this time, it was already ten in the evening, the miserable white moonlight was quietly sprinkled on the road of Chengdu City, and Zhuge Liang and Li Yanzheng, who had just finished paying homage to Liu Bei and were about to go back, were walking on the road sprinkled with moonlight.

"Prime Minister, the ancestor died, but the country cannot be without a king for a day, I think tomorrow let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ascend the throne!" Li Yan was still silent, and even the words he said were heavy.

Zhuge Liang stopped, stared at the crescent moon with a miserable white halo in the air, sighed, and said, "I think so too, but"

Zhuge Liang paused when he said this, but Li Yan next to him was not surprised, as if he knew what Zhuge Liang was going to say.

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan, pondered for a moment and then said: "But our Royal Highness is still too young, and the affairs of the court and the central government still have to be decided by the two of us, as for Your Highness, let's read first!" ”

Li Yanshen nodded approvingly, did not speak again, saluted Zhuge Liang, and walked silently towards the mansion under the escort of the guards.

Zhuge Liang was not surprised by Li Yan's silent temper, quietly raised his head and stared at the crescent moon in the sky, and muttered with some moistness in his eyes: "Lord, Kong Ming will support the prince well to repay the kindness of the lord back then, but the prince is too young now, too young!" ”

Liu Bei died, but after all, the Han State is a country, the family cannot be without an owner for a day, the country cannot be without a monarch for a day, many major events still need to be dealt with, coupled with this defeat, the country is worried about internal and external troubles, wind and rain, and it cannot be without the emperor. Therefore, under the consultation of Zhuge Liang and Li Yan and the ministers, Liu Chan ascended the throne the next day.

The next day, Liu Chan was dressed in a black and red crown, wearing a crown of twelve crowns, and his immature face revealed a bit of heroism in the coldness against the backdrop of this imperial robe. In the chanting of the officials, he calmly sat on the throne on the main hall step by step, becoming the second emperor of the Han State after Liu Bei, under the leadership of Zhuge Liang and Li Yan, the officials saluted in unison.

Liu Chan, who was kneeling on the throne, was full of majesty under the background of the emperor's robe, and looked at the civil and military officials with a calm face, and then looked at Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang nodded slightly at Liu Chan heavily, and then stepped forward to read the edict of the first emperor, Liu Bei has been a corporal since ancient times, and the officials heard Liu Bei's edict and cried again, in a sad atmosphere, Liu Chan, who had a calm face, also sighed heavily.

After Zhuge Liang finished reading the edict, Liu Chan calmly looked at the officials below with ruddy eyes, paused for a moment and said in a deep voice: "My father has just returned to heaven, but Adou is still young. For the sake of our Han family, I hope that Zhuge Xiangfu and all the ministers will help in the future. ”

"The ministers will do their best for the Han family." Everyone saluted Liu Chan in unison.

In the past, Zhuge Liang was in charge of major domestic affairs, Liu Chan paused and looked at Zhuge Liang and asked calmly: "Father, what is important in the country now, I have just succeeded to the throne, and I don't know anything yet." ”

Zhuge Liang slowly walked out of the queue of civil officials, glanced at Liu Chan and asked calmly, "Your Majesty, have you finished your homework today?" Let's do our homework first, and as for the affairs of the country, just let the old ministers and ministers do it. ”

Liu Chan asked about the affairs of the country, but Zhuge Liang answered his own homework, listening to Zhuge Liang's words that seemed to be answered, Liu Chan frowned slightly, thinking that this is only the first day of his ascension to the throne, does Zhuge Liang want to be a dictator?

Looking at the officials below who bowed their heads, looking at Zhuge Liang's horse, Liu Chan hurriedly pretended to be panicked, and said in a panic: "Father, Adou's homework hasn't been done yet." ”

Zhuge Liang didn't even raise his head this time, and said lightly: "The first emperor entrusted His Majesty to his ministers, and the ministers will definitely do their best to assist Your Majesty, but now I still ask Your Majesty to focus on your studies!" ”

Although Zhuge Liang looked calm, in front of the ministers in the court, he looked like a strict master and a loving father to Liu Chan, but the ministers did not have the slightest objection, and nodded slightly.

"Please also ask Your Majesty to focus on your studies!" The ministers then came out and spoke in unison.

Liu Chan looked at the ministers coldly in his heart, but his face was even more flustered, and he said in a slur manner: "Yes, yes." Then Adou will do his homework first, and work hard for the ministers to do state affairs. ”

After Liu Chan finished speaking, under the gaze of the ministers in the hall, he was helped by Huang Hao to retreat outside the hall in a panic, looking afraid that he would be blamed by Zhuge Liang for not finishing his homework, looking at Liu Chan running out of the hall in a panic, the officials shook their heads with a wry smile, and Zhuge Liang also sighed heavily. Then under the auspices of Zhuge Liang, the ministers began to discuss state affairs.

"Humph!"

Liu Changang walked to the main hall, saw that there was no one left and right, shook off Huang Hao who was holding him, there was no longer a panicked look on his face, he looked at the officials discussing the affairs in the hall, snorted coldly, and then walked towards his palace without looking back.

Huang Hao's back was cold, and he also felt the change in Liu Chan, and thought that His Majesty had not done his homework to make Zhuge Xiangfu scold and angry, so he hurriedly and quietly followed Liu Chan, and did not dare to speak, and served carefully left and right.

As soon as Liu Chan walked to the gate of the palace, Zhang Yingying, who was considered to be a yellow-haired little girl, was dressed in plain clothes, and hurriedly greeted her, looking at Liu Chan with a cold look, thinking that Liu Chan might still be sad about Liu Bei's death, Zhang Yingying, who had never liked Liu Chan very much, also became well-behaved, hurriedly stepped forward to pull Liu Chan up, and said with concern: "Adou, don't be unhappy." As he spoke, his eyes began to burst into tears.

Seeing Zhang Yingying's concern for herself, Liu Chan's heart warmed, he smiled reluctantly, and gently comforted Zhang Yingying, saying, "I'm fine." ”

Then Liu Chan turned around and squinted his eyes and stared coldly at the hall of the ministers in front of him, his heart was even colder, those old ministers who followed Liu Bei didn't take themselves in their eyes at all, in their eyes, they were just a child who hadn't done his homework.

Liu Chan knows that if this goes on for a long time, I am afraid that there will be no such Majesty in their eyes for a long time, and I am afraid that even the entire Liu family may be uprooted, and then this Majesty will really be the king of the dead country. Thinking of this, Liu Chan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and finally he breathed a sigh of relief and thought quietly: "It seems that I really want to train a batch of my own strength!" ”

Liu Chan made up his mind, settled down, looked at Zhang Yingying, who was pulling his robe in front of him, with a sad face, sighed softly, turned around and pulled Zhang Yingying towards the palace.
