Liu Yan stared directly at the sword in Liu Zhang's hand and asked, "My son, isn't that the snake sword in your hand held by Gao Zu?" ”

"Exactly!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "The weapons that the imperial brother gave me are a big gun and this sword, I heard that the big gun is the overlord gun used by Huo Qubing back then!" ”

"Cut! What is an Overlord gun? Don't say you don't know, even Liu Hong doesn't know what the snake sword represents! Liu Yan said with a smile: "Liu Hong is just a child of a small branch, if it is not a coincidence, how can he ascend to the big treasure!" Since the founding of the country, do you know how many emperors have been able to use this sword to cut snakes? Given to you? Are you Liu Hong Gaozu or Emperor Wu? ”

"Huh?!" Now it's Liu Zhang's turn to be surprised, there is still a secret to the snake sword?

After Liu Yan glanced at his son, he said proudly: "The sword of the snake slashing is the treasure of Gaozu. If it's not my Liu family, it can't be used, and for others, it's a good weapon at best! But for my Liu family, although it is not as valuable as the heirloom jade seal, it is something that has been passed down from generation to generation in my Liu family, and it cannot be used if it is not its owner! ”

"If it's not its owner, it can't be used?" Liu Zhang exclaimed: "Can this sword still recognize the master?" ”

"Nonsense!" Liu Yan rolled his eyes and said, "Haven't you heard that the gods have their own masters?" If you can't confess the Lord, how can you come to the Lord? ”

"Father is saying that if this sword can be used by me, it will recognize me as the master?"

"That's so easy!" Liu Yan smiled: "You first tell me how you got this sword!" ”

Liu Zhang carefully took him from seeing Liu Hong, and then Liu Hong took him to get the sword, and finally inexplicably got the sword one by one, and Liu Yan's eyes slowly brightened. Of course, the voice heard in the void, Liu Zhang naturally regarded it as an illusion and did not say it. After listening, Liu Yan laughed and said: "My son is a natural king, thanks to that Liu Hong's child, who has no father or mother, and has not obtained the secret of the Liu family, otherwise you may not be able to leave the palace today!" ”

"Why?" Liu Zhang's face was confused, just like someone said that the one who inherits the jade seal of the country wins the world, a broken sword has a limited impact on the world. In Liu Zhang's opinion, the sword of the snake slashing is at most a practical token.

Liu Yan smiled: "This involves a legend!" Back then, Gao Zu got the snake sword, but it was only three feet long. Before Gaozu's uprising, a white snake appeared in front of him. Gaozu relied on martial arts to fight the White Snake, but he found that the sword was too short! Gao Zu sighed: "It would be great if the sword could grow longer! "Who would have thought that the sword in Gao Zu's hand really grew four feet and became a seven-foot long sword, and Gao Zu used this sword to cut off the white snake! Therefore, there is a rumor in the Liu family: those who are not born emperors cannot use this sword! I said that you were born a king, or are you conservative! ”

Hearing Liu Yan say this, Liu Zhang understood! Maybe Liu Hong knew about Gaozu's snake slaying uprising, but he didn't know that this broken sword still had so many twists and turns. In addition, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once used it for Huo Quai, and then there was Huo Quai's big gun, and Liu Zhang has always been determined to be Huo Qubing since he knew Liu Hong, which allowed Liu Zhang to escape. Otherwise, no matter whether Liu Zhang was born an emperor or not, Liu Hong would not spare him. The emperor is ruthless, and all threats must be nip in the bud. However, Liu Zhang scoffed at Liu Bang's martial arts and the white snake's fight, in his mind, the ancestor Liu Bang was a green-skinned scoundrel, it was okay to bully good people, fight? Unless he changes his surname!

After Liu Zhang finished laughing at Liu Bang in his heart, he suddenly remembered a question, and he couldn't help asking: "Didn't you say that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty once gave Huo Qubing the snake sword?" Why can Huo Qubing use this sword? And why did Emperor Wu give this sword to Huo Quai? ”

"There's another secret involved!" Liu Yan said with a smile: "The reason why Emperor Wu was favored by Emperor Jing back then was that when he was as old as you, he sneaked into the royal treasury alone, but was called by this snake sword and obtained it. Emperor Jing thought that it was Emperor Wu who used the sword without permission, and he was very angry. You must know that the relics of the ancestors are not something that anyone can touch. When Emperor Jing wanted to remove the sword from Emperor Wu's waist, something strange happened. An adult can't take a sword off a child's waist! Even if you take it down and put it back on the shelf, the sword will return to the child's waist. At the same time, a strange and majestic voice came from the darkness: "In the name of me, give you the sword of the snake to protect the great man!" Only then did Emperor Han Jing understand that this child was the heir chosen by the ancestors. So, no matter when, Jing Yanjing loved Emperor Wu very much, even if Empress Dowager Dou persecuted him many times, Emperor Jing did not have the heart to save it! ”

Liu Zhang was already stupid when he heard this, it turned out that he had the same experience as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, could it be that he could reach the height of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty? Although Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had many omissions in dealing with the Xiongnu issue, he was still the existence of the Han Dynasty kings and even later generations of kings. But now that someone told Liu Zhang that his achievements would be no less than that of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, how could he not be surprised? Even if he once thought about being an emperor, he once thought about taking the world as his own, but he did not exceed the determination of Emperor Wu of Han. Under Liu Yan's narration, Liu Zhang lost his mind!

Liu Yan didn't notice Liu Zhang's abnormality, and he was still narrating to Liu Zhang why the snake sword was used by Huo Quai. In fact, it is very simple, that is, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty lent this sword to Huo Quai, which shocked Xiaoxiao. For this reason, Huo Quzhi also lost a lot of life, otherwise how could he die at the age of twenty-four? The things of the emperor are available to extraordinary people and courtiers. It's like the elders kowtow to the younger ones, that's going to be blessed! However, this is a secret, so it is rumored that Huo Qubing died because of the plague.

In the confusion, Liu Zhang returned to his room, but his heart was still turbulent. At the beginning, he knew that after he arrived at the end of the Han Dynasty, he just wanted to find a backer in the chaotic period of the Three Kingdoms, so as not to die as aggrieved as in history. may be able to be like Liu Bei, cross the thorns and achieve an imperial career, but he never thought of surpassing Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Now he is shocked, and his ambition is slowly growing, and he is out of control!

Sitting on the couch, Liu Zhang was thinking: "Could it be that God let me come to the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, and I am willing to play soy sauce like this for a lifetime, and then my descendants will be ruled by others, and even cut off my children and grandchildren?" No! Now that I'm here, I can't let history repeat itself! What Sun Quan, Liu Bei, Cao Ying, I will dig up all your family foundations, and see how you still fight with me! What is Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty? If I can integrate the forces of the Three Kingdoms, it will not be easy to clean up a few alien races? ”

Thinking of this, Liu Zhang's heart was firm! Originally, he just wanted to be a strategist, but his goal in life changed to the emperor. What does it take to be an emperor, it is naturally human! Donglai Tai Shici, Yingchuan Guo Jia, Zhuojun Zhang Fei, Hedong Guan Yu, Xu Huang, the names of these generals and strategists crossed in front of Liu Zhang's eyes one by one.

Liu Zhang made up his mind to send people to visit these civil servants and generals when he arrived in Youzhou, but he suddenly remembered that he was only eight years old, and some of these people had not yet been born, and even if they were born, they were only three or four years old. If it affects their life and study, if they can't reach the height in the future, even if they find it, it will be wasted! Liu Zhang looked at his little arms and legs, and suddenly felt that life was really helpless!

After a few days of preparation, the official document to transfer Liu Yan to do the history of Youzhou Assassin has also arrived! Liu Yan took office this time, only bringing his wife and Liu Zhang, his eldest son and second son already have official positions, and it is inconvenient to leave, but the third son Liu Mao is unwilling to go to the bitter cold place of Youzhou. However, Liu Yan did not force it, compared to the other three sons, Liu Yan valued Liu Zhang more, especially after Liu Zhang obtained the sword of slashing snakes. Coupled with Liu Zhang's status in the emperor's heart, as long as Liu Mao does not make big mistakes, there is basically no problem, and Liu Yan is also relieved to leave his third son in Luoyang.

Although Liu Yan only brought his wife and Liu Zhang, his convoy was not small. The 500 Yulin army sent by Liu Hong, plus the original nearly 100 guards, Liu Zhang divided them into three sections, Huang Zhong and Yan Yan each brought a song as a guard, and Shi A brought a song as a personal guard. Of course, each song is usually two hundred people, and Shi Ana's song is not yet full. Liu Yan meant to let the house slaves go in to fill up the number, but Liu Zhang refused. This well-trained Yulin Army, joining dozens of slaves, isn't it indiscriminate!

Liu Zhang rode on a horse, looking at the scenery in the suburbs, and was in a very good mood. Huang Zhong and Yan Yan beside him were wearing armor given by the emperor, one holding the Great Xia Dragon Sparrow in one hand and the other holding dragon scales, looking majestic. Outsiders thought they wanted to hold up the façade for Liu Zhang, but Liu Zhang knew that the two brothers had slept with armor and weapons for several days, and they should not have recovered from the excitement. However, when Liu Zhang saw them like this, he couldn't help touching the snake sword on his waist, and there was an inexplicable pressure in his heart.

The group set off from Luoyang, and as soon as they left the city, two sneaky people ran back to report it. It turned out that these two people were sent by the Yuan family to spy on Liu Zhang, and when they heard that Liu Zhang chose to leave by himself, the two old men of the Yuan family were very happy. In order to prevent Liu Zhang from being caught off guard by killing the Yuan family, he deliberately released the rumors. The old man of the Yuan family had to be cautious, after all, the Yuan family was calculated by Liu Zhang, and some were bitten by snakes once, and they were afraid of the smell of the well rope for ten years. And some small families in Luoyang actually celebrated with their crowns, celebrating Liu Zhang, an overlord who disregarded the face of the nobles for the sake of the commoners, leaving Luoyang!

Luoyang to Youzhou is not a short distance, Liu Yan's convoy traveled for more than a month to arrive at Jixian County, Youzhou. But Liu Zhang, who came to Jixian County, found that it seemed that it had just been ravaged. There are ruins everywhere, and there are even places with black smoke. Liu Yan frowned and came to the city of Jixian to shout the door, and the soldiers guarding the city knew that it was the assassin who arrived, and immediately wanted to open the door to greet him. Who would have thought that there would be a hundred horses galloping not far away, whether they were friends or foes!

In the Han Dynasty, although there were many cavalry during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the general battle loss rate with foreign cavalry was about two to one, and the infantry often had to reach three to one and five to one in the face of cavalry. Of course, this is still with the help of armor and weapons. The Jixian guard saw the cavalry rushing in the distance, and the half-open city gate closed again.
