Chen Ping thought for a while and said,

"I heard that the Yanwang Palace in Jicheng is very large and empty, and the minister has not been there yet, and he also has some yearning for it.

It is better to choose a place outside the main hall of the palace, and then order the officials inside and outside the court of Zhao State, as well as the elders and sages in the surrounding townships and counties, to come to watch the ceremony.

By the way, I also greeted the king. ”

"Okay, you contact Wen Ji and start doing it."

Liu Ji patted a lacquered and painted box stacked on the top, the wooden planks of the box are connected by mortise and tenon joints, and they are also embedded with gold leaf ornamentation, which is very exquisite.

"I really want to open it and take a look, to see which of the people are and which are the ghosts in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?

These villains, on weekdays, face to face and back to others, don't know what they are secretly colluding with.

Also, through which channels did Zang Tu buy the good horses from the Xiongnu come in?

Can we follow this path in the future? ”

Liu Ji picked the strands of gold inlaid on the surface of the box with his hand, and the joints were slightly uneven, a little awkward, and his heart was moved for a while, and he casually sighed.

Chen Ping observed his words and knew that the emperor had always remained sober in such a major matter.

Liu Ji's suspicion is innate, but he just suppressed it when he was employing people in the war.

At present, as he grows older and his status is invincible, his suspicions are becoming more and more intense, and at this time, in the face of the temptation of these dozen boxes of secrets, if he doesn't complain a few words, it seems unkind.

"Your Majesty also knows, and you must not look at it.

How many threads have we buried in Yan Country to achieve today's victory.

After fighting this battle and conquering the world, he really wants to rest with the people, and within three years, he can't afford to fight again. ”

"I know, I'm not going to watch it.

Once they see it, those who can't wait to be lonely in the south, and those who don't want to rebel in the first place, will all be turned back, and there will be no more peace in this country. ”

Liu Ji sighed and felt deep helplessness.

***

When he was a country official, he had witnessed Qin Shi Huang's patrol in Xianyang, and in his imagination at that time, the emperor was the first person in the world, with the greatest power in the world, and should be omnipotent.

Unexpectedly, as he walked step by step, the closer he got to the throne, the more he had to learn to keep his light up, learn to be duplicitous, and learn to be with the light.

"Burn it, burn it all, you can arrange it."

Liu Ji turned his back and no longer looked at the pile of boxes, his mind drifted to the battlefield of Daijun in the distance.

The Western Route Army won a complete victory in Daijun, and Guan Ying, Fan Xu and others cooperated with Zhao Shi to drop their tails accurately, and attacked from east to west, winning a complete victory.

They originally wanted to capture Zang Tu alive, but when he saw the defeat of the army, he was so angry that he fell from his horse and vomited blood and died.

The king of Yan has died, the capital of the country has been lost, the rest of the stragglers in various places do not want to fight anymore, they have looked at the wind and surrendered, the West Route Army triumphed all the way, the momentum is like a bamboo, along the original road of the Yan army's attack, almost without blood to recover all the lost territory.

"Zang Tu is also a hero, and he fell from his horse and died like this, which is sad and sad.

Why did Wen Ji say that Zang Di's family had run away? Didn't catch any of them? ”

Listening to the emperor's cold question, Chen Ping hurriedly replied,

"Yes, Zang Di only has one son under his knees, named Zang Yan, who is responsible for staying in Jicheng and guarding the rear this time.

On the day of the palace change, he somehow ran out with his family.

The border between Yandi and the Xiongnu is long, and it is often communicated with each other, and eighty percent of them have been prepared to defect directly to the Xiongnu. ”

Speaking of the Huns, the two monarchs and ministers couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both knew each other's thoughts at the moment-

During the whole process of this expedition to King Yan, the Huns always stood still and did not send a single soldier to help, which was a godsend luck.

In the countless previous deductions, if Mao Dun only sent troops to go deep into the area to disturb the country, the encirclement of the Western Route Army would never have succeeded so easily.

If it weren't for the extraordinary curtain hanging by the heavens, then Liu Jing really exerted his talent of three-inch incorruptible tongue in the Huns and persuaded Mao Dun?

"Isn't there any news from Liu Jing yet?"

Now that the war has subsided, Liu Ji's hanging heart has fallen to the ground, and he has begun to worry about the Han envoy who has not heard from him.

"No, there is no news at all, and I don't know where the person is at the moment, dead or alive.

The two groups of spies we sent one after another, I still can't count on them. ”

"Forget it, leave it to fate, maybe he'll be back someday.

If you don't come back after the New Year, find a way to comfort his family. ”

Liu Ji scratched his head and said,

"As for Zang Di's son, grandson, just run, don't send someone to chase after you.

Wen Xuan, a person who has made great contributions over the years, deserves to be named a marquis no matter what.

He was born talented, forbearing, and had big ideas, and he would really save face for me and buy people's hearts—"

He said lightly, snorting almost inaudibly from his nose, and stopped abruptly halfway through his words.

Chen Ping thought to himself, no matter who came to be the next Yan King, Wen Zhen was a difficult person to restrict.

In autumn, the land of Yanzhao is getting cooler day by day, especially at night, the wind in the mountains rises, bleak and sorrowful, blowing the forest and trees, adding endless killing atmosphere.

A cold wind also penetrated through the gap in the tarpaulin of the camp tent and hit Chen Ping's door, which made him shiver slightly.

***

The smoke from the burning of more than a dozen boxes of letters can be seen in almost half of Jicheng.

There were many discussions in the streets and alleys, and the people praised each other, saying that Emperor Liu of the Han Dynasty was kind-hearted, except for the first evil Zang Di, and even the family members of Zang Tu were open, and there was no nine clans, no weaving and weaving, and he was not to blame for the past.

The true son of heaven is really extraordinary.

There are more good deeds, not to mention that in the billowing smoke and dust, I saw the legendary five-color auspicious clouds and royal spirit that always surround the emperor's body.

"According to me, the true dragon emperor is not the same Hey, I see layers of clouds and clouds, straight through from the top of the palace city, that is going to connect to the heavenly court."

"No wonder the First Emperor made several southern tours back then, but he didn't suppress this royal spirit."

"What is God's mandate, on the other hand, the Zang Ye before us, he didn't have that life at all, and as soon as the army came to the Daidi, the people were gone."

For a while, from the princes and nobles in Jicheng to the peddlers and pawns, they all had to stop and watch around the Yanwang Palace City, where Liu Ji temporarily lived, to see if they could also have a chance to see the royal spirit that was rumored to be divine.

Liu Ji cordially and generously received the ministers of Yandi, and handed over the daily government affairs to Wen Meng and Zhao She, and left the baby irrigation to sweep away the sporadic remnants, completely finished, and then, the original class returned to the court.

Wang Shi triumphed, the road was extremely fast, only more than ten days, he walked nearly half of the distance, and was about to arrive at Handan City, the capital of Zhao State.

Thinking of Lu Pheasant's advice before leaving, Liu Ji thought for a moment and decided to stay in Handan for two more days and rest by the way.

When the news of the emperor's temporary residence reached the palace of King Zhao, Zhang Ao immediately took care of everything such as arranging the emperor's clothing, food, and accommodation in the palace, and was cautious.

On the day of Liu Ji's car arrival, he took Lu Yuan and led all the officials of the Zhao court to meet him twenty miles outside Handan City, which can be described as respectful.
