Twenty-seven A glimpse of the sky

General Lin Bijiang's face was cloudy, and he obviously began to doubt whether Yang Feng would be able to come in to support, after all, his subordinates must have suffered a loss against this group of well-equipped Cao troops, and this Zhong Xuan in front of him was an important minister of the imperial court, and he had no reason to stop him from going to see the Son of Heaven, if Yang Feng couldn't come in, his chances of winning would not be great. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

When the stalemate was in the midst of a stalemate, a Han soldier guarding the periphery of He Yuan came to General Lin Bian's side and whispered in his ear for a while, General Lin's face changed greatly, and Zhong Xuan smiled when he saw this: "How is it?" Lin Bi General? Is General Yang and Wang Taishou fighting outside? Will Lin Bi be beaten or will he ask the Holy Lord to uphold justice? ”

Lin Bi took the knife back and said coldly: "In this case, please ask the Holy Lord to do justice!" After saying that, he waved his hand, and his sergeants spread out on both sides, giving way to the passage of the sleeping palace where the emperor lived, this temporary dormitory was actually not as big as Cao Zhang's residence in Chenliu, after all, this was the old site of the Wei Palace during the Warring States Period, and after the renovation of the merchants, the structure has been very different, Cao Zhang's visual inspection of this dormitory is only three hundred square meters at most, and there is only one floor, it seems that it is also convenient to control the use of the emperor.

Zhong Xuan saw that General Lin had already made way, and said to Xun Yu, Cao Pi and Cao Zhang: "The three of you will go with me to face the saint!" After saying that, he walked towards the dormitory with his head held high, Xun Yu and the three naturally followed, Cao Zhang thought to himself that this Zhong Xuan was quite good at being a man, in fact, he could go by himself, but he chose to take the three of them, no matter what dynasty it is, the emperor is not easy to see, that is called Tianyan, which comes from the theory of divine authority of the monarch made by Dong Zhongshu during the period of Emperor Wu.

Before the four of them came to the dormitory, they all hid their hands in their sleeves and put them between their chests and abdomen, which is a kind of etiquette of Sergeant Han Doctor, called Lirong, in addition to putting their hands well, their bodies should also stand straight, Cao Zhang has been in this era for seven years, and he has naturally learned to look good.

I only heard Zhong Xuan say loudly in front of the door: "Your Majesty, the minister Zhong Xuan has something to play!" ”

After a while, the bedrooms opened with a 'babbling', and the door was of course not Emperor Han Xian, but a close attendant wearing eunuch clothes.

Zhong Xuan obviously knew this eunuch, and when he saw this person, he said: "There is a rumor from the Huangmen of Lao Li, and the envoy of Yanzhou Mu Cao Gong Mengde has come to meet him. ”

The eunuch should not be more than 15 years old, his face was a little pale, his face was full of panic, obviously the noise outside the door just now had alarmed them, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "Master Hou, please wait." With that, he turned back into the house.

After that, there were some small voices in the room, as well as women's voices, but Cao Zhang couldn't hear them very clearly, and after a while, the eunuch's voice came: "Xuandong Wuting Marquis and Yanzhou envoys meet ~~~!" ”

Zhong Xuan led the three of them into the room, this house is really called a house with four walls, except for a few simple bronze lamps and a low couch, it is almost empty.

You must know that in the Han Dynasty, a tasteful person would put at least a few things, one was a delicate bronze lamp, Cao Zhang's room was a crane-shaped bronze lamp, and the house of this emperor was the simplest upright bronze lamp. In addition to lamps, calligraphy and painting are also essential, but the emperor's 'dormitory' obviously does not have this thing.

Another important thing is the Hu bed, which is a great tool from the people outside the Saiwai, in Cao Zhang's opinion, this is definitely the predecessor of the bench, the place where this thing sits is made of cloth, and the stand is similar to the modern portable folding chair.

This thing is still the emperor Lao Tzu Han Ling Emperor introduced, at that time the formal occasions of the Han Dynasty are kneeling, that is, sitting on the ground, but the Hu bed is the same as sitting on the bench, more comfortable, although it can not be used on formal occasions, but in private will sit on this thing, rich people will have a few of these things.

But the rich emperor of the world lives in the 'dormitory' does not have these things, I have to say that this is a very tragic thing, at this time Emperor Han Xian is sitting on the only low couch, the yellow dragon robe and the crown of heaven are dressed very well, next to the eunuch who opened the door just now, the 'dormitory' did not see the female dependents, I think it should be avoided.

Emperor Xian is only fifteen years old this year, and in Cao Zhang's eyes, this buddy does not have the spirit of a king, but is more like a panicked baby who has been kidnapped for N hours in a row, which can be seen from his frightened eyes and pale face,

Zhong Miao first said loudly: "Meet the emperor!" After speaking, the most solemn way of saluting in the Han Dynasty is called prostration, which requires two hands to be overlapped, the left hand is pressed on the right hand, hidden in the sleeve, and then raised to the forehead, slowly bowing, and at the same time kneeling down and touching the ground, hands on the ground, forehead to the hands, and then straighten up, both hands raised at the same time, waiting for the person to greet the salute before standing up.

This kind of etiquette is generally done when meeting the elders and the Son of Heaven on a formal occasion, usually only need to hide both hands in the sleeves, raise it to the forehead and bow at 90 degrees, but now it is obviously on a formal occasion, so Cao Zhang can only bow to Emperor Han Xian, and then kneel and wait for him to greet him.

To be honest, this feeling is very bad, no wonder so many people want to be emperors throughout the ages, at least you don't have to kneel and worship when you become an emperor, Cao Zhang thought secretly, only to hear Emperor Xian speak: "Zhong Qing's family and a few people have come to make peace up." ”

The four of them stood up, still clasping their hands in their sleeves, maintaining a posture of uprightness.

Emperor Xian asked, "Why is there a commotion outside?" Why Ring the Bell? ”

Zhong Xuan replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the generals under the command of the general of the Che Cavalry wanted to prevent us from entering the palace to meet us, but there was a dispute. ”

Emperor Xian's face changed, and he asked with some panic: "The Qing family and the general of the Che Cavalry had a dispute?" Where is the general now? ”

Cao Zhang secretly scolded "bad seeds" in his heart. Zhong Xuan replied: "The general of the chariot cavalry is waiting for the conscription of the Son of Heaven with the Taishou Wangyi of Hedong outside the gate of the palace. ”

When Emperor Xian heard this, he asked, "What are you doing with them?" Cao Zhang almost laughed out loud when he heard this, and secretly cursed in his heart, "Idiot! ”

Zhong Xuan replied respectfully: "The envoy from Yanzhou came with 600 elite soldiers to protect His Majesty, and if he wants to ensure that the Son of Heaven returns to Luoyang, His Majesty can set a date for the return of the Son of Heaven to the east, and then issue an edict to General Yang Feng and Wang Yi Taishou to prepare as soon as possible." ”

Emperor Xian asked again: "When do the Qing family think I should return to the east?" ”

Zhong Xuan replied: "When Marshal Li Le returns to the army, he can set off." ”

Emperor Xian asked, "What should I do if the general of the chariot cavalry refuses to allow it?" ”

Zhong Xuan replied: "The minister will convince the general of the chariot!" ”

Emperor Xian replied: "This is very good, then drive to the main hall and summon General Yang and Wang Taishou to come and discuss." After speaking, let the only eunuch around him summon Yang Feng and Wang Yi.

After the eunuch went out, Emperor Xian said to Xun Yu and the three of them: "There are three envoys to lead the army to escort you. ”

"No!" Cao Zhang knew that this emperor was at the mercy of others, and he and Cao Pi, two little broken children, he was also called a messenger, and he didn't ask a word, why could he be a messenger at such a young age? After thinking about it, could it be that this kid is the same as Zhong Xuan, and he saw that they were Cao Cao's sons? So didn't ask? The legendary wisdom is foolish? Cao Zhang didn't understand.

After a while, Yang Feng's personal guards General Lin Bi and Xun Yu took two groups of people and horses to protect Emperor Han Xian towards the main hall, because of the repeated rush, the master of ceremonies of the Son of Heaven, the soldiers with umbrella covers are gone, and some are just the sergeants of the master, which is indeed sad for an emperor.

There are two hundred tiger guards in front of the emperor, there are two thousand Yang Feng guards in the back, and then there are four hundred grain soldiers in the Cao army, on the left of the emperor is Zhong Xun Xun Yu Cao Pi Cao Zhang, on the right is Lin Bi general and other personal guard leaders, a group of people pass the dougong, through the horizontal corridor, and the main hall is close in front of you after a while.
