The Huo Party exists, but it does not exist.

It is said that it exists because there are indeed many officials in the court who have been promoted by the general, and they have participated in the political affairs of the court under Huo Guang's gaze for many years, so they will naturally support the decree issued by the general to the letter.

Over time, an interest group with the general as the core was formed.

These officers were tied to the Great General.

The generals are glorious, and they are glorious; When the generals die, they die.

From this point of view, the Huo Guang Party definitely exists.

said that it does not exist because the general himself has never said anything about Huo Guangdang.

After all, the line between cronyism and meritocracy is blurred, and those officials who have been promoted by the general are still officials of the Han Dynasty in the final analysis.

No one can know the specific number of officials who "only ended up being a great general, but were not loyal to the Han", and did not reach the moment of cooking oil for the fire of "leaving the left for the Liu family".

Maybe hundreds, maybe thousands, maybe none.

Take the matter of Yingjia as an example, the general just asked Le Cheng to be careful of Liu De's obstruction and hinder Wang He of Yingchangyi from entering Chang'an.

He has never said anything like "this matter is related to the life and death of our Huo Party, and we must not be cautious."

Therefore, when Le Cheng did not get full evidence, everything was his speculation, and he was completely uncertain whether Liu De stood up at this time to prevent the Yingjia group from entering the city, out of public intentions or selfishness.

And when Bingji and Lihan, who are also "Huo Dang", also proposed that they should postpone entering the city, Le Cheng naturally became more hesitant.

From this point of view, Liu De's words seem to have some truth.

Le Cheng rode on his horse and looked at the pitch-black wilderness in front of him, and he also hesitated.

"Shi Gong, there is a general in Chang'an, and there will be no problem late this day, but this matter is related to the dignity and face of the clan and the court, and there can be no mistakes."

Liu De saw through Le Cheng's hesitation, as if to persuade him, and seemed to show that he was dedicated to the public, and even directly pointed out what Le Cheng was worried about.

"Don't forget, what we want to welcome is not someone else, but Changyi Wang He, what kind of character he is, I'm afraid you have all heard of it."

Liu De's words woke everyone up, the king of Changyi was insane and did a lot of ridiculous things.

I remember that four or five years ago, the king of Changyi went to Chang'an to pay tribute to him, just because when the subordinates of Changyi Mansion greeted him at the city gate, the chariot was a little shabby, and he actually wore his head and feet at the gate where people came and went, scolded and beat the subordinate officials.

It wasn't until Jin Wuwei was alarmed that he gave up.

At that time, the king of Changyi was still a teenager, and he was so crazy for such a small thing.

Today's King of Changyi is a few years older, although he has stopped a lot in recent years, and he has never been to Chang'an again, but who knows if he will do something more radical because of this reason because he gets carried away?

If the king of Changyi really refused to accept the summons because the chariot of the welcoming group was not in order, then the matter would be out of control.

After thinking about it, Le Cheng finally compromised.

"It seems that the princes are more thoughtful than me, so tonight the welcome group will camp on the spot, and tomorrow morning, after packing up the chariots and battles, and then enter the city to spread the edict, so that it should be foolproof."

"General Li, I have to trouble you to send a team of cavalry to Changyi City in the starry night, and send the news of the arrival of the welcoming regiment tomorrow to Changyi Xiang'anle, so that he can make some preparations in advance."

"Yui!" Lehan Lang took the order.

Liu De and Bingji seemed to be relieved when they heard that Le Cheng had changed their position, for some reason.

Half an hour later, a group of cavalrymen with torches stood out from the ranks and galloped away in the direction of Changyi City.

……

Outside the Fuyao Hall of Changyi Palace, it is quiet and lonely.

Liu He was standing in the middle of the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the middle of the sky.

Since the beginning of "The Book of Songs, Qi Feng, and the Crowing of the Rooster", the moon has represented longing in China.

There have been countless famous sayings about the moon that have been praised by the world.

Among them, the most classic is the sentence of Dasu after a thousand years, "I wish people a long time, thousands of miles together".

You and I look at the bright moon together, naturally as if we are by each other's side.

However, Liu He is a completely isolated person in this world, so the emotions of longing have become very weak and thin.

Maybe when you go to Chang'an, you may miss Changyi.

Liu He kept looking up at the moon, and when the clock in the palace struck twice, Liu He realized that the time had passed again.

He couldn't help frowning a little, and a very bad premonition arose in his mind.

In the past two and a half years, Liu He's routine has been very regular, and he always goes to bed before midnight.

But for these two days, Liu He would not go to bed until after the child hour.

It's not because he was too excited to fall asleep, but because, according to historical records, the edict to himself should have been delivered around the time of the child, and Liu He didn't want to let himself receive the edict in a state of confusion.

So it's better to stay awake and wait.

Although there is no specific date for indefinite, it is inferred from the news that the escort group entered Changyi Kingdom three days ago, and the edict should have been delivered tonight.

Could it be that something happened on the way?

Do you want to send Ruan Yang to the West Gate tomorrow to have a look?

Thinking of this, Liu He hit Hache, then turned around and walked towards the Fuyao Hall behind him.

When Liu He came to the palace gate, he suddenly heard a "click" sound on the roof of the palace overhead.

Immediately after, large tiles fell from the eaves and shattered to the ground.

Nasty rats!

Wait, if it's a mouse, how big does it have to be to make such a big movement?

Before Liu He could think through this problem, more than a dozen hemp ropes were thrown from the roof.

Before Liu He could react, more than a dozen black-clothed people with masked faces fell into the courtyard along the rope.

In a few breaths, a cold light appeared.

It turned out to be an assassin!?

The Book of Han has never recorded this incident!

The assassins recognized Liu He standing at the entrance of the Fuyao Hall at a glance, and without the slightest hesitation, they rushed over with their swords in hand.

The pavilion guards standing guard under the porch had never seen such a scene, and were frightened and at a loss for what to do.

"There are assassins!" Liu He shouted, and wanted to retreat to the Fuyao Palace.

But he made a mistake in his busyness, and he tripped over the threshold, and the whole person fell on his back.

Damn the threshold! It's all over!

The assassin who rushed the fastest was only two or three steps away from Liu He, and Liu He had even seen the killing intent in the other party's eyes.

Liu He closed his eyes and was killed.

My life is at stake.

The sound of a few swords stabbing into his body came from the sound of "poof, puff, puff", but Liu He ...... But it didn't hurt at all.

He slowly opened his eyes, and a figure of five short figures appeared in front of him.

Through this figure, the assassin who had rushed to the front had fallen to the ground, blood gushing out.

"Hehehe, King Xiaochangyi, no wonder you have made such a big deal to accompany you to Chang'an, it seems that you have really provoked a lot of people."

The person who came turned out to be Guo Kai, but he didn't expect this ranger remnant to be hiding in the palace all the time.
