Volume 5: Blood and Tears Seal the Sand Seventy-Six: Ten Miles of Red Makeup is Deep in the Heart
In the first month of the second year of Yuanzhen, the emperor took charge and married the eldest daughter, Princess Weichang, Liu Feixu, to Li Kai, the youngest son of Li Cai, the imperial historian.
Half a month later, the people of Chang'an City were still talking about the luxury of this prosperous wedding, and the people and horses of the current emperor who married his daughter for the first time laid out a whole long street and ten miles of red makeup.
In the Jiaofang Palace, Liu Fei put on a wedding dress in such a momentum, bright red like the blood "Queen Mother" who wanted to Qin, she turned around for the last time, her voice was faint, and her eyes were full of resentment.
"Fei'er," Wei Zifu said with a smile, but he couldn't help but shed tears, "This is also a matter of no law." "The marriage of the Han princess originally had a lot of political implications. The imperial historian Li Cai was increasingly valued by the emperor, and the prime minister Sun Hongyue was seriously ill, and the emperor married his eldest daughter to the Li family at this time, which naturally meant it.
Being able to use a marriage to pull the most important prime minister of the foreign dynasty to the Wei family's camp is also something that Wei Zifu is willing to see.
Princess Wei Chang is also a clear-minded person, not to mention that Liu Che is the master herself, and she can't regret it anymore. It's just that she looked at the outside of the hall leisurely and said softly: "Queen Mother, you said that you are sick, will your cousin be sad to see me getting married?" ”
The girl's secret admiration, similar to her mother's gentle temperament, made her dare not show it for fear of being spied on. But at this point, I still can't hide my expectations.
Even if you are distracted for me for a moment, it will not be in vain for many years of my admiration.
Wei Zifu's heart ached, and the poor daughter was actually mistaken by this Weiyang Palace like her.
"Naturally. My Fei'er is so beautiful. She raised her lips and smiled. But I know it in my heart. Huo Qubing is stepping up the training of hussars for the upcoming Han-Hungarian War, but he is afraid of this wedding. They may not come willingly.
Liu Fei smiled and took Xi Niang's hand. Slowly walked out of the Jiaofang Palace.
"Queen Mother" Cai Wei curts, "The big wedding is about to begin, you should go out." ”
"There's no hurry." Wei Zifu steadied his mind and said with a smile. "The more times like this, the more you have to dress up, the chance to win." According to the Han family etiquette, the princess who marries must take her husband to bid farewell to the emperor and queen in the Xuande Hall before marrying into her husband's family in a sedan chair.
Liu Che stood on the Xuande Hall and looked at Wei Zifu, who was dressed in light green clothes in the distance, walking towards him step by step. The tail of the service is extremely long. Led by two palace maids. It was a very solemn queen dress, but it miraculously had the charm of pity.
He's been around for a whole year. I haven't seen Wei Zifu anymore.
Wei Zifu knelt down at the long steps of His Royal Highness, "The concubines see the emperor." ”
"Queen, please get up." He smiled.
Wei Zifu raised his face. Her. The pull is extremely loose. It was the queen's formal occasion comb, but the bun was much softer. Fat powder is not applied on the face. Looking over, his eyes were too resentful.
Liu Che seemed to have seen Di Wei Zifu in front of the Pingyang Houfu Hall for twenty-eight years many years, and his slender body was so soft when he finished singing a song. All the way
It's just that Liu Che lowered his eyes and asked himself, but he no longer had the feeling of pity at the beginning.
Sometimes, even he himself feels that he is ruthless, and once the person who is removed from his heart is never willing to look back. Wang Qinxin is like this, and so is Wei Zifu.
He used to think that Gillian was too. But Gillian turned out to be the only exception.
Wei Zifu sat down on Liu Che's right side, revealing a touch of white skin around his neck.
Xi Niang took Princess Wei's hand and came to His Royal Highness. The red hijab blocked Liu Feidi's line of sight, and Ying Ying bowed down: "Daughter, farewell to my father and queen mother." ”
Liu Che nodded and said, "When the chief Wei arrives at his husband's house, he must be filial to his in-laws and abide by women's morals, which is understandable." ”
"My daughter understands."
When Liu Fei got into the palace sedan chair, he went far away. Liu Chefang got up with a smile and said, "Zifu has worked hard." ”
Wei Zifu's figure shook slightly, and he hurriedly said: "These are the duties that the concubines should fulfill, how dare you speak hard." ”
"That's very good." Liu Che looked at her until she lowered again, then he said slowly: "Zifu, thinking about it in the Jiaofang Palace, it should be enough for a year." From today onwards, I will still hand over this Weiyang Palace to you, and I hope you will not disappoint me again. ”
Wei Zifu said with a smile: "The concubine obeys the emperor's orders. ”
Liu Che never looked back and left the Xuande Palace. Wei Zifu slowly straightened his back on the long steps of the Xuande Palace.
Brother Qing, that's enough.
Since Chen Ajiao did not take the opportunity to completely collapse my Wei family, once the Wei family stands up in Chang'an City from scratch, what kind of treacherous future will it usher in?
Wei Zifu tearfully withdrew his gaze attached to Liu Che's back.
No matter what, I'm still the queen of this Weiyang Palace.
And only the queen is the only justifiable hostess in this world. In March of the second year of Yuanjiao, Prime Minister Sun Hong, who was ill for a long time, finally died. Liu Che ordered a thick burial and used Princess Wei's father-in-law Li Cai as the prime minister.
It is the month of the Lian Nu created by the princess of the flying moon, which has been verified by craftsmen and processed in large quantities.
At the end of March, Liu Che ordered Changxin Hou Liu to lead the cavalry army of 20,000 with the champions Hou Huo Qubing and Zhenyuan Hou Li Guang under his command. Each led 10,000 cavalry troops to attack the Huns. Those who have a heart regard this as evidence of the status of the harem concubines in the emperor's heart. The era that belonged to the Wei family is coming to an end. Even the best battlefields have been stolen from the limelight.
Xue Zhi came out of the hussar military academy and saw Huo Quzhi in yellow and Zhao Poyu standing with a smile on the side.
"What's wrong?" He asked with a smile.
Since Youbeiping was transferred back to Chang'an, Xue Zhi was ordered by the emperor to enter the hussars. It is hoped that he will be able to use his experience in the Chuzzer Cavalry to create another brave cavalry.
It must be said that Liu Che is indeed very fond of Huo Quzhi. Even the candidates for picking the ground are particular. He is about the same age as Huo Quai, in order to be more reconciled.
Xue Zhi was also worried about his implicit Chen background. How to act in the hussar army can live up to the grace of the willow descendants. also lives up to his conscience as a soldier, but Liu Yi smiled and only said that he would do what he had to do, without thinking too much.
When he felt at ease, he admired the character of Changxin Hou Liu's character even more.
And this year down. He also gradually became friends with Huo Quai, Zhao Poyu, and became irreversible.
In his opinion, Huo Quzhi, in addition to being a high-flying and unruly aristocratic child, still has the same innocence as him, sincerely respects the strong, and always ranks first in his heart, always a fair war.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that in the days when the Wei family was getting bleak and even the general Wei Qing was idle, Huo Qubing could still be favored by the emperor.
"It's about to attack the Huns." Zhao Poyu said excitedly, and there was an impulse in his voice to try and train for a thousand days. It's a momentary matter. A quenched sword is good or bad. You always have to go to the battlefield to see the real chapter. yes. Xue Zhi said lightly. Unlike Huo Quai's previous meritorious service, there was some luck in his previous meritorious service, but he fought hard again and again. The excitement of war has long been lost.
"Ah Zhi" Huo Quzhi didn't smile, he stared at Xue Zhi with sharp eyes and asked, "Are you going back to General Liu, or are you staying in my hussars?" ”
"This," Xue Zhi's voice paused, probably depending on Chang Xinhou's order. ”
After all, the landlord of this expedition will be Changxin Hou Liu, not Wei Qing.
Zhao Poyu's gaze dimmed a little, "If," he suddenly thought of Xue Zhi and kept silent.
Xue Zhi only felt a wave of heat rushing into his heart, and said impulsively: "No, Changxin Hou Liu will never be such a person." "Before the expedition, Liu Yi summoned the generals in Chang'an to discuss the military aircraft.
After studying the map and analyzing the situation, Liu Yi smiled and pointed to the Longxi checkpoint and said: "Champion, I want you to lead people out of Yueyanzhi Mountain from now on to attack the Xiongnu, Zhelan, Luhou and several departments, do you dare to take orders?" ”
"General Liu" and deputy general Su Jian were shocked: "This front is too long, and the champion is still young, I'm afraid I can't do it, right?" ”
The rest of the generals also looked worried, and even wondered whether Liu Yi was trying to get rid of the emperor's favored Di Huo Qu in this war, and cut off the Wei family's last hope.
"Generals," Liu Yi said with a smile, "This battle strategy was personally finalized by the emperor and me. ”
And they all stopped, and their thoughts were different. Liu Yi only looked at Huo Quai's eyes.
Huo Qu raised his eagle violently, and his eyes burst out with a majestic light, and he resolutely said: "Subordinate Huo Quai, take your life." ”
Liu Yi smiled and said with a commendatory gaze: "Well, it is really a talent from the country." Changping waits for the relief that there is a successor. ”
"Since you have received the order," Huo Quzhi heard his uncle's title, and said secretly in his eyes, "But there is still a reluctant request, I want to borrow someone from General Liu." ”
"Oh?" Liu Yi was a little surprised and asked with a smile, "Who is it?" ”
"Ride the pavilion and wait for Xue Zhi."
"Xue Zhi was transferred to the hussars by special order of the emperor. Naturally, I won't move. ”
Huo Quzhi looked at him for a while before saying, "This is naturally good." ”
Liu Yi continued: "The rest of the people will follow me to Youbeiping and wait with Zhen Yuan to discuss the round. ”
"In addition," Liu Yi said solemnly, "today's matter is confidential, and you must remember it." Do not leak it freely. If there is a leak, the military law will deal with it. ”
All the generals answered, and they all left. Huo Quzhi stood aside with his fists clenched.
"How?" Liu Yi smiled and said, "Does the champion have anything to say?" ”
"You ......," Huo Quzhi hesitated, "Actually, you are not like this." ”
"I marched under your uncle that day." Liu Yi turned his head and looked at the wide parchment map hanging on the wall, "General Wei also knows that I am Chen Niangniang's brother-in-law. But he didn't feel suspicious of me. The heart of reciprocating the peach is still understood. ”
April of the second year of Motokaku
The 30,000 cavalry army went out of the city under the leadership of Liu Yi and Huo Quzhi.
When he met the king for the last time in the Xuanshu Palace, Liu Che said with a smile: "I wait for the long letter to wait for the victory to return, and the military achievements are like flowers, aren't you happy?" ”
The eldest princess of Pingyang favored Chang Xinhou, and Liu Che, who was her younger brother, finally knew.
Liu Yi didn't feel a little upset. Pingyang's eldest princess Liu Jing, that noble and distant woman, is beautiful, but he is just a vague shadow.
I don't think about it anymore. Liu Yi said to himself.
In the distance, spring grass grows in the green grassland. War waits.
And Changxin Hou Liuyi finally ushered in his own era.
On the same day that the army left the city, Liu Che ordered to go down and pick up Chen Niangniang from Tangyi Houfu and return to Changmen Palace.
At noon today, it rained heavily at home, and there was a power outage in the whole county. Delayed writing time.
Plus it's about to enter the depiction of war. The war thing needs to be looked up, so it has been delayed until now.
The Han Wu period was actually a magnificent era. Huo Quzhi is also the only famous general in Chinese history who has not suffered defeat. Sprout.
Although it was also because he died early.
A hero who stays forever at the age of 24.
I'm not good at writing about war, and I'll try to end this part in a few chapters.
