Chapter 5 On the Journey
Han Jian's trip to Luoyang, in addition to accepting the canonization of the title of county king and ruling a place, he also wanted to make friends with the dignitaries and nobles in the capital and expand his contacts.
In addition to preparing various journeys for him, the aunts at home also prepared a lot of "gifts" for him, and Han Jian was also burdened with the task of helping the aunts go back to their parents' homes to save their relatives.
In addition to Han Jian's ninth aunt, the other ten aunts in the family have their mother's family in Luoyang City, Han Jian has no immediate family, but there are many grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins, they are also the stepping stones for Han Jian to expand his contacts in Luoyang, the capital. Before leaving, his aunt taught him earnestly, teaching him a lot of "behaving in the world", such as how to treat his grandfather, such as to have more contact with his uncle, such as not to look down on his cousins and cousins, and then not to pay attention to those cousins and cousins who are attentive to him.
Han Jian is the king of Xiaojun, and he is also the pride of his aunts, he has an outgoing daughter, and his aunts have long regarded him as a son, and if he is instructed, he is completely on his position and alienates his mother's family.
On the last day of leaving, Han Jian's second aunt Han Songshi called him to the room, gave him a roll of paper, and said: "Jian'er, this time you go to Luoyang, the mountains and rivers are far away, because your mother can't be by your side, you have to take care of yourself." ”
"Yes." Han Jian bowed down to receive the order, but he wondered if he had forgotten to bring something.
A few days ago, he had already discussed with Ruan Ping and Sima Yi, and the two would also go to Luoyang with him. When Ruan Ping was fifteen years old, he was already in the middle of the lift, a young talent, and he was going to the capital to take the entrance examination, preparing to be named on the gold list in one fell swoop. Sima Yi wanted to sneak out of the house and travel thousands of miles to fulfill his dream of being a hero.
"Your Majesty hopes that the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu will marry, so this time you go to Luoyang and walk around with the people of the Nanwangfu." Han Song added.
Han Jianzheng was wandering outside the world, and a sentence pulled his soul back: "Erniang, what did you say?" ”
"Interact more with the people of Nanwangfu. This year, people from Nanwangfu will also go to the capital, and they will rarely meet. ”
What Han Jian of Nanwangfu didn't care at all, he was mainly surprised by the "marriage", he hadn't heard anyone mention it before, and the major events of his life were so hastily decided?
The four kings of the Wei Dynasty, the kings of the southeast and northwest, guarded the western capital in the west, rejected Xianbei in the north, and resisted the Southern Qi in the south. Although Han Jian is named the King of the East, he is actually the King of the Southeast, and the meaning of the King of the East is also to resist the Southern Qi.
However, the East Wangfu and the South Wangfu have always been at odds, mainly related to the Battle of Jinling sixteen years ago. In the Battle of Jinling that year, Han Jian's father, Han Jue, the king of the East, led his troops to kill under the city of Jinling, seeing that Jinling would be broken, and the northern defense line of the Southern Qi Dynasty would also collapse.
When this enemy saw each other, not only could he not blush, but he also pretended to be close, Han Jian thought that this was really embarrassing for himself.
Han Jian thought to himself, probably because the empress wanted to resolve the conflict between the two families through the marriage. If the two kings of the east and the south were married, it would indeed be of great help to the stability of the southern line of the Wei Dynasty.
With great helplessness, he came out of the room, and Han Jian gathered all the last belongings and put them into the carriage loaded with goods.
Most of these things were "invented" by his carpentry, and there were also some tools that he used to continue to invent, among which Han Jian was most proud of a homemade guitar, which took him months to find materials to make zuò and then tune it. In addition, there is also a pair of his self-made harmonica, in his opinion, this is an indispensable tool for "soaking the girls in Beijing". Han Jian also likes the way he plays the harmonica and Wen'er dances at the same time.
This time Han Jian went to Luoyang, the second mother Han Song wanted to stay at home to take care of the family, and only his third aunt and ninth aunt walked with Han Jian.
The third aunt's status in the family is not low, and the third aunt's father is a former official of the ministry, which is helpful to Han Jian's expansion of contacts, so this time Han Song specially let the third aunt go along. And Han Jian's ninth aunt is Han Jian's mother's maid, she knows martial arts and can protect her, and the family doesn't want Han Jian to be in danger outside and no one will take care of her.
In addition to the third aunt and the ninth aunt who were walking with Han Jian, there was also a personal guard battalion from the Dongwang Mansion who would accompany them. The personal guard battalion has a total of 400 cavalry, which is the elite soldiers under the domain of Dongwangfu, responsible for escorting Dongwangfu into Beijing to be sealed, and then returning safely.
In addition to these, there is also Han Jian's personal maid Wen'er, who is fourteen years old at this time, although she is still a little girl and has not developed well, she is already very smart. Han Jian has always felt that his vision is good, and he even chose the best maid.
He went north to Luoyang, in addition to preparing for the needs on the road, he also had to develop the branch of the "Three Kingdoms Bookstore" to the capital. The "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" comic book has reached the ninth episode, which has become a "myth" in the publishing industry of the Wei Dynasty, and countless readers have watched it. If the publication was interrupted because he was heading north, he would not only disappoint his readers, but also suffer a financial loss. Han Jian felt that only in a capital city like Luoyang City would the greatest effect of the bookstore be brought into play.
……
……
The spring breeze is proud. Han Jian hit the road with a relaxed and happy mood.
It was less than 200 miles before something happened.
The water and soil are not adapted, and they can't stand the fatigue of the journey, and the weather is warm and cold in spring...... On the contrary, it was precisely because of some reasons that he couldn't explain that Han Jian was sick. The sick ones are still a little strict.
Fortunately, Dongwang drove the car with a doctor and diagnosed him, saying that it was a cold. Wind and cold things can be big or small, and Han Jiande's belongs to the "big" kind. Cough, fever, vomiting......
Han Jian suddenly felt that he might be suffering from the disease of wealth and wealth, and he had a good life of eating and dressing, and he had a love affair with him as soon as he left home.
Han Jian was not in the mood to watch the scenery along the way, so he could only be stuffy in the car every day, wrapped in a quilt. I took more medicine than I ate.
The illness is better, and then it is stricter, and so on. Han Jian's mood also repeated.
Because of Xiaojunwang's illness, the Dongwangfu car and his party originally had to walk for two months, but they walked for nearly three months, and it was not until early April that the group arrived outside Luoyang City. Han Jian originally wanted to watch peach blossoms in Chang'an City, watch temple fairs, and participate in a poetry party or something to make friends with a few celebrities in the capital, but this illness disrupted all his plans.
The car drove into Luoyang City and directly entered the other courtyard of the Dongwang Mansion in the capital. Ruan Ping and Sima Yi couldn't wait to go to Luoyang City to "see", but Han Jian could only hide in the room, holding the soup jar to live.
After settling down in Luoyang City, there was no need to sway in the car every day, and Han Jian's condition finally stabilized. A few days later, he was alive and well.
Just when Han Jian was about to experience the prosperity of Luoyang City with Ruan Ping and Sima Yi the next day, Sanniang handed him a "famous thorn" and instructed him: "Hedong everyone Pan Fuzi will give a public lecture for the last time tomorrow, you are well, go and listen." ”
"Public lectures" are public lectures by some people who are conceited and outstanding in learning, which is similar to giving public lectures. However, there are so many people who want to listen to this kind of lecture that only those who have been specially invited, or who have been asked to obtain a guò, are allowed to attend.
Han Jian sighed, obviously the third aunt went through the relationship for him to increase his knowledge.
"If you don't go, it's in vain Sanniang's hard work, hum!" The third aunt wrinkled her nose and threatened, "In the future, the third aunt will ban you from your feet and not allow you to go out." You look at it! ”
