Chapter 323 The Shadow of the Candle of Changle

"The general actually killed someone with his own hands? He hasn't killed anyone for a long time," in the Changle Palace, Emperor Wu of Han sat under the begonia tree and said leisurely. His eyes became cloudy, and his speech became more and more sluggish.

When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty heard that Huo Guang had gone to the Chang'an School Palace, he did not care about Huo Guang's reform and standardization of the School Palace, but attached great importance to his murder.

In Liu Che's heart, he didn't know if Huo Guang's sword stab was warning those who were indiscriminate, or was he demonstrating to himself?

In the attic of the Marquis of Anping, Sang Hongyang was looking at the brightly lit Chang'an City, he was even older and thinner this year, and his wide robe was blown by the night breeze, stirring and fluttering on his thin body.

"Master Hou, the general has set up four new branches in the Chang'an School Palace, namely scholars, agriculture, industry, and commerce. Now there are only about 100 people left in the school palace! Ah Heng's body was hidden in the shadows, but his voice fell clearly in Sang Hongyang's ears.

"The food of a well-killed country cannot be wasted on those who are indiscriminately spent. I didn't expect him to list Shangdao as one of the four major compounds? It's a pity" Sang Hongyang also praised Huo Guang's actions, and listed Huo Guang as one of the four courtyards for business, Sang Hongyang agreed with Huo Guang from the bottom of his heart, but in the end he said it was a pity, but he didn't know what it was a pity?

After the spring of the second year of Taichu, Chang'an City was calm, and even Huo Guang and Sang Hongyang were not as busy as before. Now that there are wars in the two passes of the Western Regions, the rest of the Han Dynasty has basically ended, and more than 100,000 troops are also on their way back.

"Where have Shangguan Ji and King Liang gone?" Emperor Wu of Han leaned on the bed and asked Zhang Anshi in a low voice. In the past few days, he has rarely walked out of the main hall, he feels that his body is already a little out of his control, Liu Che knows that this situation shows that his time is running out.

Now Zhang Anshi is no longer just a Guanglu doctor, just a month ago he was appointed by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty as Guangluxun, this Guangluxun is the original Lang Zhongling duties, in fact, Zhang Anshi has become the highest commander of all the armies in Chang'an City.

"Back to Your Majesty, from Anhou to the area of Ju County, it is less than two hundred miles away from Chang'an. And King Liang's army has already entered Hongnong County, and it will be possible to reach Chang'an in less than five days. Zhang Anshi bowed to the side and replied.

"Spread my will, let Shangguan Ji's army continue to be stationed in Youfufeng, and let the army of King Liang and King Zichuan be stationed in Wucheng, and let a few of them come to Chang'an as soon as possible!" Emperor Wu of Han said in a somewhat weak voice. The armies of Shangguan Ji and King Liang were arranged on both sides of Chang'an, and the martial city was near Cuihua Mountain, and the march only took one day to reach Chang'an.

"No" Zhang Anshi should go out and spread the message. But at this time, Emperor Wu of Han stopped him again and continued: "By the way, call the grandson and the princess of Jiangdu." ”

Soon Liu Jin and Liu Xijun hurried to Changle Palace, Liu Jin has often come to ask Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to say goodbye recently, but Liu Xijun saw the emperor for the first time in half a year.

There was only one Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the main hall of Changle Palace, and even Zhang Anshi withdrew from the main hall, and the candle shadow in the hall was swaying, and the same swaying emperor could only be seen on the window lintel.

"Grandchildren and courtiers meet Your Majesty." Liu Jin and Liu Xijun bowed and saluted, they all knew that the two armies of Shangguan Ji and King Liang were not far from Chang'an, and at this time, the emperor summoned them to discuss something important.

"Excuse me, come closer," Emperor Wu of Han beckoned to the two with difficulty.

When Liu Jin and Liu Xijun both stood on the side of Emperor Wu of Han's bed, Liu Che lay on the bed and said in a somewhat slow voice: "Jin'er is assisted by Xijun, and grandfather doesn't have too many worries, I heard that you let King Liang and King Zichuan go to Yan Kingdom?" Your uncle is no longer here, is he? ”

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's first sentence turned out to be an affirmation of Liu Xijun, and then directly said the small actions of Liu Jin and the two in private. In fact, King Yan committed suicide half a month ago, and no one knows whether it was a real suicide or something else! At the same time, some incriminating evidence of Yan Wang Liu Dan's conspiracy to rebel was also revealed. This matter has not been officially reported to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but Liu Jin, in the name of the grandson of the prison state, united Zongzheng Liu Anguo, and several kings surnamed Liu have confirmed Liu Dan's incriminating evidence.

"Grandfather, it's not that the grandson is ruthless, it's really a big man who has been in war for a long time, and now he can't stand any toss anymore!" Liu Jin hurriedly knelt in front of Emperor Wu of Han's bed, and said with a low headache.

"Get up, the truth is done, and I don't want to say more. You're right, Dahan really can't stand the toss anymore. I'm afraid grandfather doesn't have much time, and there are some things that I need to explain to you at the end. Emperor Wu of Han reclined and said, he gasped heavily every time he spoke, as if every word would cost him great strength. He already knew in his heart about his son's death, and as a qualified emperor, this was also his sad and helpless place.

"Please make it clear to my grandfather, and let my grandson follow the teachings carefully." Liu Jin was still kneeling in front of the bed, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he knew that his grandfather, who was eloquent and strategic, really had little time.

Then my grandfather would make the last will, adding Zhang Anshi as the right general, Shangguan Ji as the left general, and Jin Riyan as the general of the chariot cavalry. In addition, after the funeral, Jin'er can use Sima Qian as the imperial doctor, if Sang Hongyang is willing, he is the best prime minister, if he is not willing to be the prime minister, Tingwei Bingji can be the prime minister. Jin'er, you don't have a brother, among the kings, you need to be friendly with the king of Liang and the king of Zichuan, this time the two of them enter Chang'an, you will increase the fiefdom of the two countries, and this will grandfather will leave it to you. Emperor Wu of Han said with difficulty, but he was really explaining the aftermath.

The imperial power of the Western Han Dynasty and the rights of the princes and kings have always been points of conflict and contradiction, but the relationship between each emperor and his brother is not bad, and there are even brothers like Emperor Jing and King Liang who can fight side by side, so when the successive emperors tried their best to weaken the kings, they also befriended their brothers, which was also a means of winning over and suppressing. Liu Jin has no brothers, so among the kings of the clan, he must also look for good princes.

"Your Majesty, how should the general arrange?" Liu Jin hadn't spoken yet, but Liu Xijun asked first. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty arranged so many people, but he did not have Huo Guang, who is now the most powerful and powerful in prestige.

"The general's words are arranged by myself, you must not act rashly, the current Han cannot do without him, if anything happens to him, the Han will definitely fall into a situation of disintegration. Your first task in the future is to consolidate your rights, and then you will work on other things! Emperor Wu of Han said solemnly, he also had ideas in his heart about Huo Guang's arrangement, but he couldn't say this idea when he was alive, and it was useless to say it. On the contrary, he also told the two children not to act rashly in front of Huo Guang.

"Grandchildren remember their grandfather's teachings." Liu Jin said seriously, facing this grandfather who was still thinking about himself, his heart was both moved and guilty.

"As an emperor, we must make trade-offs, and what we have to bear is far heavier than that of ordinary people, and we must lose what we gain, and we need to remember it in the future. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty stretched out his hand and touched Liu Jin's head with difficulty, at this time he saw that Liu Jin was not only his eldest grandson, but also the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

"The courtiers are here" Liu Xijun also knelt beside Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's bed, and when she heard the emperor call herself alone at this time, she also responded respectfully.

"As an elder, I have no intention of killing your relatives, but as the emperor of the Han Dynasty, they have to die what I said to Jin'er just now, I hope you also remember that if you have gains, you will lose, and if you lose, you will gain!" Liu Che did not face Liu Xijun as an emperor, but as her elder, and even as her father-killing enemy.

"The courtiers don't blame Your Majesty, they only blame their father for doing something wrong!" Liu Xijun replied calmly that she really did not resent Emperor Wu of Han for the death of her father and family.

Although Liu Xijun was still young that day, she also knew what kind of person her father was outside, although it was her father, but even Liu Xijun had to admit that what Liu Jian did was really innocent!

"It's good if you can understand" Emperor Wu of Han said leisurely, and his words seemed to be meaningful, and I don't know what he meant by this?

When this series of appointments of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had not yet been announced, Huo Guangzheng in the Wutai Hall was carefully looking at the content of the historical records recently compiled by Sima Qian, which recorded what had happened in the last six months.

The same candle shadow in the hall flickered, Du Yannian hurriedly walked in from outside the hall, he approached Huo Guang and lowered his head and whispered: "General, Shangguan Ji, King Liang and King Zichuan have already left to return to Chang'an, and they are expected to enter the city early tomorrow morning." The 70,000 troops who retreated from the northern front were arranged by His Majesty in Youfufeng, and the 60,000 troops of the King of Liang and the King of Zichuan were arranged in Wucheng. The 80,000 cavalry of the Hexi Army we brought are still in the upper valley of Yuyang, and Wang Yuanyou's 30,000 soldiers and horses have also been left in North Korea, thousands of miles away. Now Chang'an is full of His Majesty's troops on the left and right, and we only have more than a thousand cavalry at our disposal! ”

"Oh, Your Majesty's arrangement is not bad, both inside and outside are foolproof." Huo Guang just said casually, his eyes were still on the historical records.

"Half an hour ago, Your Majesty summoned the Taisun and Princess Jiangdu in Changle Palace." Du Yannian continued, this time it was just the most ordinary little thing. Maybe it was Huo Guang's composure that infected Du Yannian, and even he felt that this situation didn't seem to be a big deal at the moment.

"In this way, Your Majesty who should be explained has also been explained, so as a general of the Han Dynasty, I should also go and meet Your Majesty!" Huo Guang suddenly put down the book in his hand and set his eyes in the direction of Changle Palace.
