Chapter 34 Bowang Hou Zhang Qian
The sun is shining.
In the morning, the Hou Mansion of Shanyang.
Zhang Xiaoyuan ran into the study of the inner house quickly, and his expression was slightly excited:
"Father, do you know that His Majesty reprimanded Na Huo for his illness, saying that he committed the following crimes, fought with the princess, and was fined for half a year to see the aftermath. After this incident got up in the morning, it spread all over Chang'an, and we all heard about it.
That Huo Qu has always been arrogant, it should have been so ...... a long time ago"
Zhang Dangju sat behind a low seat in the house, his posture was calm, and he glanced at his eldest grandson:
"He and the princess should be punished, but if you want to be valued by Your Majesty, you still have to rely on your own ability, it's not that Huo Quzhi was reprimanded by His Majesty, you have a chance.
The death of Liu Huai, a lieutenant in the Northern Army, Taichang and I pushed you to be responsible for the investigation, but there is any progress? ”
Zhang Xiaoyuan's spirit perked up slightly: "I was about to tell my eldest father about this, but my grandson has found out that the murderer Xia Jie can get the test, and there are clues such as why she learned about it in the eldest princess's mansion." This is involved, just wait to inform the eldest father, please ask the eldest father to show me, what should the grandson do? ”
Zhang Dangju nodded: "This is the right thing, you have to do your best to show your talents, so that you have the opportunity to suppress Huo Quai's illness and be valued by His Majesty." ”
……
Huainan Palace.
Liu Qian sat in the main hall and was silent.
"I heard from the attendant that my brother has been sitting here for a while, and his face is strange and scary, what's wrong?"
Liu Ling was dressed in a brown Hanfu with red stripes, and walked in from the outside.
This young daughter of the king of Huainan is twenty-five years old this year, unmarried, and has always been smart and strong.
She has always had a habit of waking up late and yawning when she came out.
Liu Qian threw a bamboo slip in front of him onto the low seat where Liu Ling lived: "That Huo Qubing actually dared to reply to me, so that I don't have the mind of Nazhuo Qingke as a concubine, heh!" ”
Liu Ling glanced at the reply and sneered: "What is the reason why my brother posts to others, but he doesn't allow them to come back?" ”
Contrary to outsiders' inherent perception of Liu Qian, although his face was gloomy at this time, his eyes were shining, and his face was shrewd: "What annoys me is that he dares to be so reckless!" ”
Liu Ling pouted and said: "But this is Chang'an, who makes the family gain power now, behind it is the queen, the general in charge of the army."
The elder brother must not confront him and cause trouble for his father. ”
"I don't know what you're saying."
Liu Qian was in front of his sister, different from outsiders' impression of him, his thin face and eye sockets were deep-set, and his body, which originally seemed to be hollowed out by wine, faintly exuded a compelling momentum.
"It's good that my brother knows."
Liu Ling said: "However, can my brother really endure this breath? ”
Liu Qian sneered: "Even if I don't have the same knowledge as him, I have the means to clean him up." What's more, with my character in the eyes of others, if it is not normal to endure this breath, then it is better to teach him a lesson, beat him back to his original form, and let him know his origin. ”
He said: "And that Zhuo's family, don't give him a face." ”
"Brother is still more cautious, Huo Quai's illness can be valued by His Majesty, after all, he is not an ordinary person."
Liu Qian glanced at his sister: "Don't worry, I won't attack him directly, but the Zhuo family is just a merchant family, and they dare to disobey me." Zhuo's has a lot of properties in various places, and I see how he can keep it. ”
————
In the independent courtyard on the side of Weiyang Palace, on the wooden tower, Ru Bohu is bowing his head and painting.
The painting is a black and white sketch of an old man, whose one hand is spread out, with five fingers corresponding to the five elements, and the palms of the hands correspond to yin and yang, one hand only, but there is a kind of artistic conception that envelops all things in heaven and earth.
Although it is a figure painting, it has an indescribable majestic atmosphere.
"You are painting the founder of the five elements of yin and yang, talking about Tianyan?"
A low and majestic voice sounded, and beside Ru Bohu, Liu Che, who was wearing an imperial robe, suddenly appeared.
Ru Bohu's face was calm, the pen in his hand had already dropped the last stroke, and he raised his head to salute: "Your Majesty rarely has time to come to me." ”
Liu Che said slowly: "There are some happy things, I want to find someone to talk to, but no one else is suitable, so I can only find you." ”
"Although the world is safe, but there are four people outside, and there are people secretly plotting inside, what is the joy of it, it is worth you to come to me specifically?"
Ru Bohu is quite satisfied with the painting, but his mouth is straightforward.
"You asked someone to send me a message before, connecting several recent events, with Lujiang County as the core, and spreading around.
When he came to me yesterday and took the initiative to ask for punishment, I see that he seems to have seen something, which is similar to your opinion. ”
Liu Che walked to Ru Bohu's side, snatched the pen from his hand, and also painted at the desk.
"You came to tell me that Huo Quzhi's mental success was better than expected, and he was taught by you the most since he was a child?" Rubo Tiger Road.
Liu Che smiled: "That's not it, it's his own talent, and I am at most a guide." ”
"There is also Wei Qing, he knows the soldiers, but he is not as good as going to the sick in terms of machine changes."
Ru Bohu bowed his head and said: "With his talent, when he is promoted to the realm of heaven and man, what kind of talisman can be awakened, I am quite looking forward to it." ”
Liu Che changed the subject: "What do you think of the recent movements of the Huns?" ”
Ru Bohu is in charge of the secret detective guard, and the news from all over the world is at your fingertips:
"The Xiongnu royal court is sending an order to all the tribes, and when the harvest season of abundant plants and trees has passed, they will gather all the tribes, obviously to go south again. Last year, the Xiongnu were defeated in the hands of Wei Qing, and this year they will hoard heavy troops to suppress the border, and a big war is inevitable. ”
Liu Che said with a smile: "The Huns want to take revenge on my Han people, don't you know that my Han is the same." ”
"The next battle is very important, and if it wins, it will definitely affect the countries of the Western Regions."
Ru Bohu's gaze fell on Liu Che's pen.
When he spoke, his pen was non-stop, and his heart was divided into two purposes, and he actually sketched the magnificent atmosphere of thousands of troops and horses on 'paper'.
That's right, it's paper, as I said before, the emergence of the First Emperor has promoted many changes in this world, including the early application of paper.
It's just that paper is still not popular, although it is much better than the same period in history.
"Recently, the Xiongnu have been frequently tempted, and they have revisited the ...... of family affairs," Liu Che looked at a map of animal skins hanging on the wall.
It depicts the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions, as well as the territory of the Xiongnu.
Each of the three has its own side.
"I received a secret report that the Huns may send an envoy over."
The two were talking, and suddenly they had a feeling and looked out the window.
In the direction outside the city, there was a breath of breath, faintly emitting a sonorous and resounding sound. The white clouds on the sky, under the impact of this breath, rapidly changed and dispersed.
There seemed to be a fierce tiger outside the city, roaring all the way, moving quickly to the southwest.
"It's the Tiger Guards...... When he got sick and transferred troops outside the city, he went to the southwest for military training, and you gave him the right to transfer troops? ”
"Well, I will grant him the right to transfer troops up to 1,000 people."
"His Majesty pressed him by his side, and he has been involved in internal and external disputes all these years, he is afraid that he will be suffocated, and he can't wait to cross the battlefield as soon as possible." Rubo Tiger Road.
Outside the city at this time, Huo Qubing was leading the army to rush to the southwest to carry out drills.
This Chang'an Guard is all elite cavalry, and the qi and machine are connected during the march, dividing and changing, skillfully showing the battle array interspersed.
The sound of horses' hooves trampled the earth, and the mountains shook with it.
In the evening two days later, Huo Qubing returned to Chang'an with his troops, and returned to the house in the dust, but he saw Song Ran, Qu Jun, Yue Rao, Xiao Ying and others coming back from Lujiang County to report to him.
"It's just in time to come back, and there are other things for you to do." Huo went to the sick road.
Several people immediately followed him into the Huo Mansion and obeyed the arrangement.
It was getting late, and a few people dispersed to go their own way.
The next day, Huo went to the barracks to train with the soldiers and practice the art of changing the military formation.
The next day, he suddenly remembered the banquet at the mansion of Zhang Qian, Marquis of Bowang, so he went out of the mansion to the mansion of Marquis Zhang Qian, Marquis of Bowang, accompanied by Yao Zhao.
Zhang Qian and Huo Quzhi's residence was only two streets apart, and when they went out for a quarter of an hour, they saw a mansion in front of them where cars and horses were bustling, so it was not lively.
Most of the nobles in the city received invitations.
Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions brought a lot of changes to the Han Dynasty and stimulated the rapid development of merchants and border trade.
Chang'an is noble, and the rich are more benefited by it, so Zhang Qian's mansion held a banquet, and people gathered.
