Chapter Ninety-Seven: Han Hong

(I reviewed, drank tonight and went to ~~~~~)

Han Hong is a native of Kuangcheng, Huazhou, forty-four years old this year, became an orphan when he was a child, relied on his uncle Liu Xuanzuo to live, and later failed to raise the Ming scriptures, abandoned martial arts and literature, learned to ride and shoot, after Liu Xuanzuo became the envoy of the Xuanwu Festival, Han Hong's official fortune was prosperous, and he was promoted from a lower-level official to a Dali commentator, and later became a guard general in the south of Songzhou. After Liu Xuanzuo's death, his son Liu Quanliang succeeded him as the envoy of the festival, and Han Hong was the envoy of the capital. In the fifteenth year of Zhenyuan, Liu Quanliang died of illness, and the generals in the army missed Liu Xuanzuo, because Han Hong was a well-rounded scholar and martial artist, and was a descendant of Liu Xuanzuo, so he supported him as the queen of stay, and was approved by the imperial court.

After the death of Quhuan in the middle of the martial arts (Chen Xu) festival, Wu Shaocheng, who had seized Huaixi, had conspired with Liu Quanliang to attack Chen and Xu Erzhou, when Han Hong succeeded to the throne, the Huaixi envoy was still in the hotel, Han Hong was loyal to the imperial court, ordered them to be beheaded, selected 3,000 elite soldiers, and the imperial court crusading army rendezvous, attacked Wu Shaocheng, but was defeated. Xuanwu Town since Liu Shining secession, the sergeant is arrogant, often kill the commander, after Han Hong took office, he will always be the most troublesome tooth general Liu Yi and other 300 people all executed, bleeding Dandao, Han Hong smiled freely. From then on, the Xuan warriors did not dare to make trouble. In the twenty-first year of Zhenyuan, not long after Li Yugang crossed, Pinglu Jiedu made Li Shigu Tun soldiers in Caozhou, and under the pretext of Yicheng Jiedu, Li Huaisu spread the rumor of Dezong's death, trying to occupy Zheng, Hua and other prefectures, but was frightened back by Han Hong.

Li Chun thought back to Han Hong's information, and couldn't help but feel a little stunned. What a powerful and scheming person who killed three hundred people in front of his eyes, and who actually talked and laughed freely. If Li Yu is here, Li Yu will remember the story of Shang Zhixin. After Shang Zhixin set up Shang Kexi, in order to establish his authority, he executed soldiers who disobeyed military discipline in front of everyone and ate their flesh. What Han Hong did was probably for Liwei. However, Li Chun's decision to kill was not hot enough after all, and he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

Just as Li Chun was heading towards Kaifeng, Han Hong was fishing by the pond in his house. In fact, to say that Han Hong is a fraud is wronging him. Han Hong is indeed sick, and there are two kinds of internal and external ones. The outer is the foot disease, and the inner is the heart disease. Like Ge Shuhan, Han Hong also has a serious foot disease. And the heart disease is due to the prince's residence in Luoyang. To tell the truth, Han Hong, who has a foreign surname, succeeded Liu Xuanzuo and his son as the envoy of the Xuanwu Army, and the foundation is actually not stable. And there are evil neighbors like Ziqing and Huaixi watching, so Han Hong sensibly chose to move closer to the imperial court at the beginning of his appointment as the Jiedu envoy, so his position as a Jiedu envoy also has legitimacy. After ten years of operation, the Xuanwu treasury is sufficient, and the soldiers are elite, Han Hong has firmly controlled Xuanwu, thinking that he can inherit it from generation to generation in the future, and divide one side, who knows that the situation has changed so quickly. The prince is coming to Kaifeng, Han Hong sees it or not? How to meet? Should I lose my sincerity or how? Han Hong felt irritated for a while, and threw the fishing rod aside.

Han Gongwu quietly came to Han Hong's side, bowed down and said:

"Father, the prince's car has arrived in Zhuxian Town."

Han Hong stretched out his arm, and Han Gongwu hurriedly hugged him. Han Hong asked:

"Are the honor guards ready?"

Han Gong Wudao:

"The loess is sprinkled on the ground, and the water is clear, and the streets are all ready."

Han Hong muttered:

"Summoning the military officials, follow Ben Shuai out of the city for ten miles."

As he spoke, his hand grabbed Han Gongwu's arm heavily. Han Gongwu was not stunned, and quickly lowered his head and supported his father more carefully. Han Hong sighed in his heart:

"Tiger Father and Dog Son."

Since Han Hong became the envoy of the festival, he has relied on his strong army and has not entered the court for ten years. Although he is superficially deferential to the court, the court knows that he has never treated him as a good bird. Han Hong also knew his position in the hearts of the court. Therefore, the pomp and circumstance to welcome the prince was extremely grand. The Xuanwu shogunate and Bianzhou officials, as well as the local elderly gentry, were all available, ten miles out of the city, and welcomed Li Chun on the road. Not long after, the apricot yellow flag fluttered, and the prince Li Chun was frugal under the escort of three thousand guards, and came to Kaifeng Shili Pavilion. Seeing such a grand scene, Li Chun couldn't help but be surprised, but his apprehensive heart also relaxed. Confidence has returned to the crown prince.

The prince's carriage stopped, and Gao Yu rode out of the queue and shouted:

"The prince's edict ordered the Xuanwu Army to make Han Hongxiang meet in public."

Han Hong, supported by his two sons, walked towards the prince's car with difficulty. When he got closer, Han Hong let go of the hands on the shoulders of his two sons, and was about to kneel, but his footing was unstable, he stumbled, knelt down and said:

"The ministers inspected the school Sikong Tongping Zhangshi and the Xuanwu Army Festival made Han Hong see the prince Chitose, Chitose, Chitose. The prince came to the east, the minister did not have time to see the driver, and drove to Bianzhou, and the minister missed the welcome, so he asked His Royal Highness the prince to forgive his sins. ”

The two sons also knelt down with Han Hong. Han Hong knelt so embarrassed, but he still knelt respectfully. The people of Biansong also hulala and knelt down. Han Hong lay on the ground for a long time, but he didn't see the prince calling him to calm down, and he was annoyed, but he suddenly felt a pair of soft but powerful hands supporting him. In front of me is the hem of an apricot-yellow dress. A standard Chinese came from the ear:

"Han Xianggong, please. Han Xianggong is an important minister of the country, and he is in poor health but does not waste etiquette, and he is really a model official. But how can the widow be happy? ”

Brother Han Gongwu hurriedly helped his father up. As soon as Han Hong raised his head, he felt an awe-inspiring and inviolable gaze looking at him. There is a legend about the sword of the Son of Heaven, is there also the sword of the prince? Han Hong didn't dare to think about it, and was busy with the old squire toasting the prince. The prince drank it all. After meeting with the old gentry, Li Chun boarded the car, Han Hong was just about to leave to take his own car, but the father-in-law Tutu beside the prince waved the dust and said loudly:

"The prince gave Han Xianggong a ride."

Then, the prince ordered that in order not to disturb the people of Bianzhou, he ordered Wang Dahai to lead the army to camp outside the city, and only ordered Gao Yu to lead a hundred people to accompany the guard. The weather was originally hot, and sitting in the prince's car, the sweat on Han Hong's head was getting bigger and bigger.

The prince stayed in Kaifeng for three days. Originally, I wanted to go to Songzhou to inspect, but because of the heavy rain, I had to give up. Han Hong arranged the crown prince in the mansion of Liu Xuanzuo, the envoy of the former festival. In order to ensure safety, he deliberately ordered his own masters to check the security, but the masters reported that the prince had no fortifications at all, and purely handed over his life to Han Hong's driving. Han Hong was shocked, so he had to order more people to be sent to protect him. Sure enough, there were really eyeless flying around, and they were repelled after being discovered by Han Hong's people.

This is someone who wants to blame me Han Hong!

Han Hong thought through gritted teeth. Soon after the crown prince left Bianzhou and returned to Luoyang, Han Gongwu led 5,000 Xuanwu elites to follow and protect, and then stayed in Luoyang.
