Chapter 17: Zhang He!

After a pull, the canonization was settled, Yuan Shao was named a general, and Yuan Shu was named a captain.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Shao welcomed Liu Xie into the palace to visit.

"Your Majesty, there are nine palaces in this palace, which are used for meeting hundreds of officials, handling government affairs, holding banquets, and resting."

"The minister has prepared a hundred maids and two hundred servants in the palace to serve you, in addition to a thousand forbidden troops to defend the palace and protect Your Majesty's safety."

Yuan Shao gave Liu Xie a brief introduction to the configuration in the palace.

With such a big palace prepared, he naturally would not be stingy with manpower, so he directly arranged three hundred people to serve Liu Xie, and even the Praetorian Guard arranged a full thousand people, and the pomp was sufficient

"So much?"

Liu Xie was secretly speechless, and couldn't help but be surprised by Yuan Shao's handwriting.

It wasn't enough for Boss Yuan to send him Da Bieye, he also prepared servants in Bieye, and even the Praetorian Guards!

Where is this boss? This is obviously the father-in-law!

Before Liu Xie could speak, Yuan Shao shouted behind him: "Zhang He, why don't you come and see Your Majesty?" ”

The words fell, and in the crowd, a burly and somewhat taciturn military general walked out, and then bowed directly to Liu Xie.

"The last general, Zhang He, see Your Majesty!"

The voice was not loud, but it shocked Liu Xie, and he almost couldn't help but exclaim!

Zhang Zhang Zhang, Zhang He?!

Liu Xie was a little skeptical that he was having auditory hallucinations.

One of the five good generals and the general of the five tiger generals of the Shu Kingdom, was actually sent to him as the commander of the Praetorian Guard?

You must know that the commander of the Praetorian Guard said that it was Lang Zhongling, and if it was bad, it was the head of the security of the palace.

If it was at the height of the dynasty, the status of this position was indeed not low, but now that the Han royal family has declined, he, the son of heaven, is even more fake, and there is no future for him as the commander of the Praetorian Guard.

Yuan Shao uses talents like this?

"Oh...... Ah, yes, yes, general, please. ”

Liu Xie suppressed the shock in his heart, came back to his senses, said with a pleasant face, and stepped forward to help Zhang He up with his own hands.

Such a courtesy made Zhang He a little flattered.

"Your Majesty, Zhang He was originally a general of Han Fu's subordinates, and after the minister took Jizhou, he switched to the minister."

"Zhang He is quite brave, far beyond ordinary people, with him to lead the forbidden army and defend the palace, Your Majesty will be able to sit back and relax."

Yuan Shao introduced Liu Xie with a smile, but although he praised it in his mouth, he didn't think so in his heart.

He has fierce generals like clouds, including Yan Liangwen and Chou, Ju Yi, Han Mengchun and Yu Qiong, which is not a general who is not in charge.

Zhang He is a mere general, and he has no well-known military exploits, and he can't get into his eyes.

But if he is idle, others will inevitably think that he is narrow-minded and does not need to be demoted, but it is better to use it now and use it to lead the forbidden army.

"That's nature, with the general, my heart is at ease."

Liu Xie nodded in agreement, the expression on his face did not change much, in fact, his heart had already blossomed!

He just figured out the reason, Zhang He didn't vote for Yuan Shao for a long time, and he was not taken seriously at all, and it was only later that he voted for Cao Cao and began to emerge.

I didn't expect him to pick up a leak now!

"Although my identity as the Son of Heaven is fake, no one knows except Yuan Shao and the group of people on Cao Cao's side."

"I can't use this identity to try to win over a group of my own people."

Liu Xie's mind began to come alive.

He didn't have such an idea, but Yuan Shao sent him a Zhang He, which made his heart quietly change.

He didn't do this to dominate the world or anything in the future, but to try to protect himself, because he didn't know if Yuan Shao would kill him after using him, and he didn't want to be slaughtered.

And Yuan Shao didn't know what Liu Xie was thinking at the moment, and after leaving Zhang He behind, he said: "Then Your Majesty, the ministers will retire first." ”

After saying that, he left with a group of retainers.

Only Liu Xie and Zhang He were left standing in place.

"Finally...... Free. ”

Liu Xie saw Yuan Shao and the others leave, feeling relieved.

Although from the other courtyard to this palace, the cage has only become a little bigger, but now he still has a feeling of "being in the cage for a long time and returning to nature".

I don't have to stay in such a small yard!

Just when Liu Xie was still immersed in the joy of gaining a moment of freedom, Zhang He behind him also took the initiative to retire to him.

"Your Majesty, the last general needs to transfer the forbidden army and defend the palace, so he will retire first."

Zhang He bowed and said, his attitude was very respectful.

Liu Xie came back to his senses when he heard this, and then immediately reached out and pulled Zhang He's arm, and said with a smile: "Hey, don't be in a hurry in advance, let's go to the pavilion in the garden over there with me first, and chat with me." ”

"Your Majesty, this ......"

was pulled by Liu Xie's arm, Zhang He was a little overwhelmed.

Pulling the arm and supporting the other are two behaviors that show closeness and trust from the superior to the inferior.

Zhang He thinks that he is just a little lieutenant general, how can He De get such a courtesy from the Son of Heaven?

But Liu Xie didn't wait for Zhang He to refuse, so he pulled him to the pavilion not far away.

"General, don't stand stupidly, come and sit."

Liu Xie took the lead in finding a stone bench to sit down, and then beckoned to Zhang He.

When Zhang He heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and refused: "No, no, no, it's good to stand at the end, how can you sit with Your Majesty, this is really rude." ”

"Okay then."

Liu Xie didn't insist anymore when he heard this.

He originally wanted to get closer to Zhang He, and by the way, see if he could take it for his own use, if he was too enthusiastic and scared people away, it would not be beautiful.

Seeing Zhang He's restrained look, Liu Xie smiled and said, "General don't be nervous, I just want to chat with you, after all, you will be the one responsible for protecting my safety in the future, I must have an understanding, right?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang He felt a little relieved, and could understand why Liu Xie was so enthusiastic about him.

Because the person who manages the forbidden army is the absolute Son of Heaven's guard, generally speaking, it is the son of the clan, or the person most trusted by the Son of Heaven; He was suddenly sent to this position by an outsider, and it was normal for the Son of Heaven to be uneasy.

So Zhang He thought for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, the last general originally worked for the former Jizhou Mu Han Fu, but with Yuan Shao's entry into Jizhou, the last general came under his command. ”

"But please rest assured, Your Majesty, the last general is not Han Fu or Yuan Shao's retainers, but loyal to the Han Dynasty and the Son of Heaven."

"Now that he is in command of the forbidden army for His Majesty, he will definitely protect His Majesty with his life."

Zhang He's words were sonorous and powerful, and his expression was even more resolute.

The subtext of his words has been said obviously, that is, let Liu Xie not have to worry that he is Han Fu or Yuan Shao's person, he is loyal to the Han court.
