"The emperor said, you Yang Chuan is now a royal nobleman, your words and deeds can't be too perverse, and at the same time, you can't lose the heroic spirit of a young man."

After a large plate of sour meat and three bowls of wine, a touch of blush finally appeared on Cui Jiu's pale face, and his eyes stared at Yang Chuan faintly: "Gongsun Hong may have to send someone to deal with Dongfang Shuo, do you have a way to deal with it?" ”

Yang Chuan shook his head: "He doesn't dare." ”

Cui Jiu also shook his head: "You let Dongfang Shuo tell stories in Chang'an City, and it doesn't matter if you sarcastically ridicule the emperor's relatives and relatives, anyway, it's all a bad thing in your own family, and the right is to give the people of Chang'an City some after-dinner conversations, the emperor said, it's not bad, from time to time let the people scold a few words, vent their grievances, it's better than holding back in your heart and thinking about rebellion;

But Yang Chuan.

Gongsun Hong is the prime minister, the head of a hundred officials, and has been operating in the court for decades, aren't you afraid that he will shadow you behind your back? ”

Yang Chuan picked up a bowl of wine noncommittally: "Uncle Cui Jiu, taste my family's newly brewed wine." ”

Cui Jiu no longer mentioned the matter of Gongsun Hong, picked up a bowl of wine that Liu Man had poured with his own hands, leaned in front of his nose and smelled it, his miserable white face was slightly moved, and said: "There are a few grains less than your family's ten grains, but the taste is more mellow and long, with a hint of sweetness in the bitterness, and the charm is long, it is a good wine." ”

"Does this wine have a name?"

Yang Chuan replied casually: "It's just three or two grains brewed, after nine steaming and nine drying, and then adding some six six six six powders, which increases the flavor and aroma of the wine, to put it bluntly, it is just in the brewing process, add a little poison." ”

Cui Jiu nodded slightly, and exclaimed: "Changning Hou is clever, and he is very human. ”

Then the old thief took the bowl and drank it all.

I saw that his eyes were slightly closed, his tongue smacked, he slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly grinned: "Changning Hou, isn't this 666 powder the commonly used insecticidal poison in your home?" How much is the recipe worth, sell me a copy? ”

Yang Chuan looked at the three little women in his house, and then at Huo Guang and Yang Yi, who lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid I can't give you the formula directly, you see that my family has a big business, and after three years and five years, these little women in my family gave birth to three kang Yang Xiaochuan, what do you let me take to support my family?"

Uncle Cui Jiu, otherwise, you give me ......"

Cui Jiu said directly: "Okay, deal." ”

Yang Chuan was stunned, and smiled a little shyly: "Uncle Cui Jiu, I haven't asked for a price yet, so why don't you pay a price?" ”

Cui Jiu said indifferently: "Compared to letting the people in Chang'an City get sick and break out of the plague due to flea, lice and mosquito bites, as long as you Yang Chuan can open your mouth to ask for it, the old man will find a way to satisfy you." ”

Yang Chuan stared at Cui Jiu's two light gray eyes, and said very seriously: "Not only can I give you the formula of 666 powder, but I can also give you the formula of soap, shampoo, and shower gel, and I can even give you a recipe and process for firing porcelain." ”

"That's it."

He stared at the old thief without blinking, and said, "It's just that in the past few years that I have been out to fight, if someone in the court harms me, I still hope that Uncle Cui Jiu will help the field, and I will not make some villains proud." ”

Cui Jiu said expressionlessly: "Okay, I promise you." ”

"As long as you Yang Chuan does not rebel, even if you make a big mistake, the old man will keep your family safe and sound, of course, this is also the emperor's intention."

It is the emperor's meaning.

Yang Chuan retracted his gaze, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip before lying down on the mazazi.

The emperor is a creature that can't be measured by common sense at all, especially a heroic lord like Liu Che, who has a deep mind, every word and deed, every move, is quite meaningful, and it is tiresome and tiring to think about it......

……

The smoke of spring is intoxicating, where is the wine sober?

It is the third day of March of another year, in the Han Empire two thousand years ago, this is a very important day, such as the spring society of later generations, it is the day when the emperor sacrifices heaven and earth.

It's just that March 3 of the first year of Motokashi is destined to be a very special day.

Because.

On this day, Liu Che's 150,000 elite iron cavalry was about to go to the northern front line to conquer the Xiongnu; This battle was called the "Battle of Mobei" in later generations, but Yang Chuan thought that it was more appropriate to call this battle the "Third Battle of Mobei".

In the original history books, this battle Wei Qingqin led an army of 150,000 to sweep Mobei, killing more than 87,000 and capturing more than 3 million cattle, sheep and livestock; At the same time, Huo Qubing led 3,000 Yulin orphans under his command, opening and closing vertically and horizontally, interspersed with lightning, and forcibly beat a Xiongnu Empire into a sieve, scattered, and even the Huns' Dadan Yu fled for 3,000 miles.

Since then, there has been no royal court in Monan.

It's just that perhaps because of Yang Chuan's commotion, the original historical timeline was quietly changed, and there was some strange deviation in the specific details.

For example, Huo Quai, who was supposed to follow Wei Qing's army to the north, was sent to Longxi County by Liu Che.

In this way, the famous 'Battle of Hexi' in history may have to break out earlier?

Some people say that the highlight moment of Huo Qu's illness was the second battle of Mobei, where the wolf lived in Xu Mountain and won the title of champion Hou, so as to become famous all over the world and leave his name in history; Yang Chuan stubbornly believed that Huo Quzhi's real brilliant achievements were actually the Battle of Hexi.

This battle not only opened up the Hexi Corridor and made it possible for the Han Empire to pass through the Western Regions, but also directly expanded the territory of the Han Empire by nearly doubling, and at the same time crippled the Huns entrenched in the Tianshan Mountains and Kunlun Mountains, and easily beat the Qiang people down, and did not ease their spirit for more than a thousand years.

This battle!

It's called the Battle of Hexi.

Outside Chang'an City, on the bank of Qujiang Pond, under the Baqiao Willows, Liu Che personally led more than 2,000 people, including hundreds of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, the Marquis of the Han Dynasty, the Marquis of Guannei, the Marquis of Guanwai and the queen's concubines, to set up a banquet for the soldiers and made an important speech.

I heard that the 150,000 Northern Army was divided into eight battalions, knelt on one knee, roared in unison, drank the bowl of strong spirits, and burst into tears of excitement one by one; Then, under the emperor's warm gaze, he turned over and rode north.

At the same time, the more than 3,000 Yulin orphans under the command of Huo Qubing had already quietly opened up, unknowingly entering the Qinling Mountains, and wandering between the steep and abnormal mountain roads.

Following the Yulin Army to the northwest, there was also Yang Chuan's family.

Except for Zhang Anshi, who stayed in Chang'an City and became the youngest county commander in the Han Empire through the way of 'going through the back door', responsible for the construction of Maoling New Town, the other three little women, such as Zhang Tang, Sima Qian, Dongfang Shuo, Huo Guang, Yang Yi and Liu Manzhi Niang Naren Tuoya, all went to Longxi County with him.

Originally, according to the practice of the Qin and Han dynasties, the state and county officials and soldiers went out to fight, and their families had to stay in Chang'an City as hostages, but the situation of the Yang Chuan family was slightly different. ’

So, Yang Chuan simply packed up all the family and took it away and went to Longxi County to take up his post......

……

"Yang Chuan, you kid is very capable now, and our Yulin Army has become a civilian man who moves for you?"

On this day, the army left the Qinling Mountains and entered a very open sloping valley area, but it had already entered the boundary of Longxi County, and this sloping valley was in Shangtai (Gui) County.

Huo Qubing rode his horse, and very rudely picked up the curtain of the carriage that Yang Chuan was riding with the horse lance in his hand, and came in and scolded: "If it weren't for you to move, the army should have already arrived in Angu and Shouyang." ”

Yang Chuan was lying in the carriage, half of his body leaning on the body of the weaver girl, enjoying Liu Man and Naren Tuoya's kneading shoulders and legs, holding a parchment map in his hand, too lazy to pay attention to Huo Quai's illness.

"Yang Chuan, why don't you get out of the car and ride a horse," Huo Quzhi glanced at the three little women with disgust, and still chattered to himself: "Look at what you have become, nesting in the carriage is not afraid of mold?" Hurry down and ride your horse to reduce the fat between your strands. ”

Yang Chuan raised his head: "I heard that your princess Yangshi is very spicy, and she scratched your face on the night of the wedding?" ”

Huo Qu was deflated, slowly retracted his head, and muttered: "That shrew, hmph, Ben Hou will beat her and urine sooner or later!" ”

Yang Chuan smiled: "Cao Xiang said that you can't beat Princess Yangshi, and you were put on your face for a full hour, and you also scratched your dough ......"

Without waiting for Yang Chuan's nonsense to finish, Huo Quzhi became annoyed.

"The woman of the old Liu family doesn't have a good thing, shrew, she's just a shrew!"

Huo Qu said indignantly: "At the beginning, she was very good, knowledgeable, when Ben Hou read the military book at night, she also boiled a bowl of ginseng soup with her own hands, saying that she wanted to replenish my body, as a result, Ben Hou told the woman that Ben Hou's diet and daily life must be in accordance with Yang Chuan's rules, and she was not allowed to eat and drink the food brought by others, and the woman began to spill.

Yang Chuan, you give us a comment, Ben Hou didn't listen to that woman in order to abide by the brother's agreement, this is not wrong in itself? ”

Yang Chuan hurriedly nodded: "That's that, it must be her fault." ”

Huo Qu said angrily: "That woman cried first, which made people so tired, but seeing that Ben Hou was indifferent, she actually stripped naked and continued to cry, and ran over to snatch the military book in my hand, and threw it on the ground casually, it's just!"

It's just a shrew!

Ben Hou said a few words to her, let her respect herself, the clinker woman actually had to inch in, and wanted to compete with Ben Hou in martial arts, and without saying a word, she came to a double-peaked ......"

Listening to Huo Quai's words, Yang Chuan had already laughed.

This Tie Hanhan.

Listening to Liu Man's private statements, several of them asked Princess Yangshi about Huo Quzhi's troubles on the wedding night, so that they could seize the opportunity to laugh at this product in the future.

Unexpectedly, according to Princess Yangshi, the two have never shared the same bed in the past month since the wedding......

"Go to the sick, there are some things here, you should learn from Cao Xiang," Yang Chuan forced a smile and said earnestly: "A person in the world, not everything can be done, even if you Huo Quzhi is a genius."

For example, I am not as good as Weaver Niang, scolding the street and rolling around to scratch the emperor's face, I am not as good as Liu Man, manure and raising cattle, sheep and livestock, I am not as good as Naren Tuoya;

And the most important thing is to have children, every man of us is definitely inferior to other little women, you have to understand this. ”

Huo Qu scolded: "What's so good about having a child? It's better to go into battle to kill the enemy and gallop on the field. ”

Yang Chuan was a little speechless.

People say that this melon is ripe and falling, and the trivial things between men and women, aren't everyone self-taught when they grow to a certain extent? Why doesn't Huo Quai's fool understand the amorous thing at all?

By the way, Cao Xiang once said that Huo Qubing had lost his body in the southwest, and he didn't know if it was true or not?

"Go sick, male and Han husband, there is nothing wrong with going into battle to kill the enemy, galloping the field, making meritorious contributions, and expanding the territory, but the question is, don't you want to give birth to a few kang Xiaohuo to get sick? As the saying goes, when you go into battle, a father and a son, a generation has a generation's responsibilities and obligations, and you can't always be ......"

Before Yang Chuan finished speaking, Huo Quai's legs were clamped and he left directly.

Looking at his straight waist pole sitting on horseback, Yang Chuan was inexplicably a little sad, such a young general who only knew how to go into battle to kill the enemy and expand the territory, but in Liu Che's heart, he had already been labeled as a 'relative'.

It is recorded in the history books that after the Battle of Hexi, the general Wei Qing was unknown from then on until he died of illness; Huo Quai's illness 'occasionally felt cold', and he fell off his horse on the way to Shuofang County, and never woke up again.

If Huo Quai's untimely death did not have the participation of the royal family, and there was no selfish deeds of the old thieves in the court, Yang Chuan would not believe it......

"Do you want to get off the car and ride a horse?"

Just when Yang Chuan looked at Huo Quai's back and fell into contemplation, Cao Xiang probed his brain, rubbed his two hands vigorously, and said with a smile: "That fool doesn't know if he is really smart or really confused, in a month, he didn't even get a little woman, and he died of laughter." ”

Yang Chuan suddenly sighed: "Cao Xiang, didn't you say that you lost your body in the southwest when you got sick, why are you still a raw melon and egg?" ”

Cao Xiang waved his hand indifferently, stepped on the carriage of Yang Chuan's house, and came in with a sneer: "Oh, the three sisters-in-law are here, who is that, Yang Chuan, let Ben Hou come in and talk." ”

Yang Chuan poked his head out of the window, still looking at Huo Quai's back in a daze.

Liu Man didn't follow.

She raised her willow eyebrows, and scolded with frosty eyes: "Cao Xiang, you are now a family and a house, why are you still so shameless, why are you running to my carriage?" ”

Cao Xiang laughed a few times and said, "Isn't it almost time to eat......

Liu Man scolded unceremoniously: "Get out." ”

Cao Xiang ignored the little woman's rudeness, turned his head to look at Yang Chuan, and said with a blank eye: "Brother Yang Chuan, why don't you stop burying the pot to cook food when it's almost noon this day, this is to starve people to death?" ”

Yang Chuan glanced up at the sky and jumped out of the carriage without saying a word.

He continued twenty or thirty paces with the group, and then walked up a very steep hill, stood there and looked around, and suddenly made a gesture: "Let your champion Hou come here, and say that there is an urgent military situation." ”

An accompanying Yulin orphan agreed, rode forward, and went to deliver a message to Huo Quai.

After a cup of tea, Huo Qu was sick.

"What's the emergency?"

Huo Quai's horse galloped up the hillside, and when he was still three or five zhang away from Yang Chuan, he turned over and dismounted, opened his mouth and asked: "There is no warning signal from the scout ahead, Yang Chuan, have you found anything abnormal?" ”

Yang Chuan looked into the distance, looked at the vast mountains in the distance, frowned and said: "Go to the disease, this road is not right, this is the road to Di Road and Qiang Road, from which the west is Longnan, and the southwest is to find some business travel trails leading to Hanzhong and Sichuan and Shu." ”

Huo Qu was stunned for a few breaths, took out a map from his arms and spread it out, leaned over to look at it carefully, and muttered: "This road is right, the map is clearly marked." ”

"Where we are right now is the southeast boundary of Shangqi, and we can enter the territory of Shouyang County if we go more than 300 miles along this Huangni official road."

Yang Chuan glanced at the map, and couldn't help but wonder: "Go sick, what about the maps I gave you?" ”

He could clearly see that the map in Huo Quzhi's hand was not drawn by himself, and the style of paper and strokes was different.

Huo Quzhi was stunned for a moment: "This is not the map you sent me?" ”

Yang Chuan took the map, pinched it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and said coldly: "Go sick, how can you be the champion Hou, the map in the army has been dropped, and you are still fighting a fart battle!" ”
