Chapter 11: The Master of the Great Han

The howling mountain wind echoed in the valley, crashing against the mountain walls on both sides, stirring back and forth, and rubbing into a loud sound that could penetrate the heavens and the earth. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The mighty Hufu cavalry marched slowly through the deafening sound waves, and the long line could not be seen at a glance.

But in the blink of an eye, even more surging shouts exploded in the valley, and thousands of soldiers in red armor appeared on both sides of the valley, shouting loudly.

On a high ground ten miles away, a heroic figure wearing gold armor and riding a horse stood quietly with his back to the sun, quietly watching the rolling wood and falling rocks in the distance, and quietly listening to the sky-shaking shouts that came quickly.

Soon the sound of victory reached his ears, and the red-armored soldiers returned in a long procession of triumphant returns, and the long stream of bright red reflected in the eyes of the man in the high place was like a stream of bright red blood, which flowed from the newly born veins three hundred years ago, meandering and surging.

This blood once stained every inch of the mountains and rivers, every village, every pass, pouring down from the Tianshan Mountains, heading straight to Jingchu, the mighty momentum has been echoing in the air, and it can still be smelled.

It's just that such a majestic red stream is rare now, Lu Zhi turned his horse's head and walked down the high hill, the winding red snake behind him is probably the only inheritance of that ancient will, and in this peaceful dynasty, only on this battlefield to resist foreign races can you see the army that is wholeheartedly thrown into battle.

"I don't know how much of these fruits will be left in Luoyang." Lu Zhi still remembers what they were like when he first took over these armies, "Presumably those people will not allow these armies to continue to exist." Lu Zhi turned around and looked at the outside of the battle here again, and the temperament he had tempered so much that he did not sigh or worry, only a pair of eyes that understood everything, looking at the mixed blood of the Hun soldiers and the Han army.

High in the air, the long team wantonly knocked on their armor, sang war songs loudly, and walked slowly towards Luoyang, like an army that came out of the history of the year with the river of time slowly flowing into today's Han and today's Luoyang, gradually moving away, no longer hearing their sonorous armor colliding, their cheerful and passionate war song.

In the past three hundred years of the Han Dynasty, the eunuchs of the relatives have been arguing constantly, like two rows of parallel white waves, either you have overpowered me, or I have overshadowed you. It is also this constant infighting, like two ants in a towering ancient tree, which can easily decay this ancient tree after three hundred years of rolling. However, it just so happened that the two ants gradually mastered a better art of struggle, and a delicate balance was formed between the two.

Qingliu Shizi, a peculiar force lies above the court, this is a group of people who only have the prosperity of the country on the surface, in the battle of the eunuchs, the relatives have the upper hand, they suppress the relatives, the eunuchs have an advantage, they attack the eunuchs, in general, they are the most beautiful bush of the wall grass among the ten thousand flowers. But as disgustingly hypocritical as they are, can you believe they're the real best? Because their great Han was called a scholar. They hold the mouth of the world, they establish all the concepts of good and evil, and the various forces they have deliberately developed from ancient times to the present are complex and intertwined, and they are the real wealthy groups of the Han Dynasty. However, they know their position very well, and they know that their interests are not in this court dispute, so they are happy to go to the theater.

Luoyang, palace.

Thousands of soldiers were stationed hundreds of miles away.

Hundreds of officials sat on both sides of the splendid hall, and a middle-aged man with a handsome hair and a dragon beard knelt in the middle to worship the emperor.

Emperor Han Ling immediately stood up: "Teacher, please get up quickly!" ”

The attendant led Lu Zhi to the first place and sat down.

"Congratulations to the teacher for winning the class this time! I gave the teacher a thousand acres of fertile land and fifty ...... brocade"

The relatives don't speak, and the treasury money is not his, anyway.

The eunuchs didn't speak, anyway, they could make up a few more official names and sell them to earn them back.

If the scholars don't speak, what are they doing! The old general should be rewarded when he returns victorious, what, you say that the reward for him is our land? A labor-management person, the children copied the guy backwards!

Everyone forced a smile to congratulate this great achievement, and the huge palace suddenly became noisy, but this was different from the jubilation of singing and dancing on weekdays.

"Your Majesty, please reward the soldiers first."

"Do it, do it immediately."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Only then did Lu Zhi raise his head to look at the king who he had brought up.

It didn't take long for the wine he had just drunk to rush to his head, weakening his perfect control over his will, and he suddenly felt that the memories in his eyes were beating, that innocent and innocent little child finally ruled the world one day, but did his teacher really teach him how to be a good emperor?

And what cruel thing must have happened at that time for a child to learn to become the most complex type of person in the world?

When Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was still named Liu Hong, it was a winter when the first snow fell.

Liu Hong jumped to the courtyard, which was where he studied today.

At that time, Lu Zhi was only twenty or thirty years old, and he was young and waiting for his first student with great anticipation.

"Teacher, early."

"Your Highness, morning."

Lu Zhi stretched out his hand and gave Liu Hong the rock sugar gourd hidden behind him.

Liu Hong squinted his eyes while eating, looking very enjoyable, he suddenly opened his eyes again and looked at Lu Zhi suspiciously, and said: "Teacher, there are three thousand seven hundred and forty palaces in this Han Imperial Palace, I don't know how many tens of thousands of acres are large, I have been looking for a long time, but why none of the three thousand seven hundred palaces has rock sugar gourds, and there is not an inch of these tens of thousands of acres of land that can see the tree full of rock sugar gourds you told me." ”

Lu Zhi said: "Your Highness, it's all things outside the palace, things for ordinary people. ”

Liu Hong said: "Then does every child have a rock sugar gourd?" ”

Lu Zhi said: "Yes. ”

Liu Hong said: "The marbles, paper kites, and ...... juju?" ”

Lu Zhi said: "Both. ”

Liu Hong cried: "Why can they have so many things that I don't have? ”

Lu Zhi said: "Your Highness, because you were born more noble. ”

Liu Hong glared at his crying eyes: "What is at the fingertips of a lowly person, can a noble person only think about it?" ”

Lu Zhi said: "Those are just gadgets, if you want to get tens of millions in an instant, you just lose." Identity, in fact, outsiders are also very envious that you are in this palace wall! ”

Liu Hong looked up and sneered: "Envy me? There is something in the walls of this palace that they can envy. ”

"No worries about food and clothing, power and power after this."

"......" Liu Hong was silent for a long time, Lu Zhi looked at the space where Liu Hong was as if suddenly plunged into darkness, he felt a little heartbroken, this child who gets along day and night, but who made him born in the emperor's family.

The surrounding palace maids and eunuchs looked at them expressionlessly, their duty was only to stand, so they were also just standing.

Liu Hong's hair hung down to cover his face, his body twitched and stood up, Lu Zhi trembled inexplicably when he saw his face again, Liu Hong's young and handsome little face was distorted, and he whimpered and cried: "But what do they know." They fear death, but they do not know the suffering of not being able to die. They are in charge, but they don't know who wants to have enough food and clothing for themselves and think about the lives of others; They are powerless, but they do not know that in this world, it is the one who has more strength to bear more. What about me? Who I owe and what to suffer in vain, no one comes to me to choose! ”

Lu Zhi felt that he didn't dare to look directly into Liu Hong's eyes, Liu Hong's eyes were red, like a fire that would never be extinguished after being wronged: "Teacher." You teach me. ”

"The minister doesn't dare to teach anymore."

After a long time, Liu Hong put away his tears, obviously feeling that he was much more tired than living normally, he straightened his waist and turned his back to Lu Zhi: "Since I don't teach you, let's go, don't come in the future, you are still my master, but learning the words of those saints won't help me." ”

Lu Zhi left, and when he saw Liu Hong for the second time, he was already Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and people respectfully called him the emperor's teacher, and more and more people came to visit and study year by year, but he couldn't remember a few.

"The teacher has been a man for decades, and I believe that the teacher will not be working hard in the future. I have already prepared a ...... for the teacher" Just when Emperor Han Ling was still careful about how to make Lu Zhi hurry up and retire and enjoy his old age, Lu Zhi got up directly.

"Your Majesty, the minister is also nearly fifty years old, and there are many old diseases, so he really can't continue to serve, so he only asks for the minister to return to his hometown."

"Ahh Forehead...... Okay, uh...... Very good. That ......" Emperor Han Ling was a little sad, "I don't know what the teacher's plans are in the future?" ”

"I want to be a good teacher."

"Was it bad before?"

"It's not good, I didn't say what I should say, I once taught the wrong person."

Emperor Han Ling said, "Oh? I wonder how that person is now? ”

Lu Zhi took a deep breath: "He's also fine now, although it's not what he should be, but it's not his fault." ”

“……”

"Then, let's go, teacher."

"There's something I want to say."

Emperor Han Ling's eyes suddenly flashed with expectation.

"The 20,000 soldiers who followed the minister on the expedition are all meritorious men who defend our Han, I hope you will treat them kindly."

Emperor Han Ling sat down, "Okay, I know." ”

Lu Zhi left the capital, did not return to the barracks, and returned to his hometown directly.

After he left, the three groups of ministers who had never dared to speak out immediately became active, and the beauties of the art troupe who had been hiding stood in the hall again, and they were all singing and dancing.

As for the large number of troops left by Lu Zhi, they were divided into three major piles first, and then continued to be divided layer by layer, and at the end of the banquet, you want to divide all the people at the banquet.

The loss of the Great Han.
