Three Kingdoms

Chapter 14 The sought-after emperor

The sky is getting brighter, the hustle and bustle of the night has thankfully passed, and a new day has arrived.

No matter who is facing the rising sun, most of them will feel refreshed, and Fei Qian is no exception. Facing the rising sun, he did a few stretching movements, moved his muscles and bones, and then ate some pastries at will. , and suddenly I felt my body regained its vitality.

I drank for a long time and didn't sleep for almost a whole night, but I didn't feel tired at all. It's good to be young. If it were a later generation, such a torment would probably be difficult to recover from in two or three days.

Is it because of this physical problem, or is it because of the different lifestyles between ancient and modern times?

In comparison, Cui Hou looked a little sluggish. He secretly covered his face with his sleeves and let out a long yawn. A few tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes. He turned around and saw that Fei Qian had seen him. He was quite embarrassed: " Ah, I'm rude and rude, don't blame me, ah, as my brother has to go to Chen Province, I'm going to borrow a step first, good brother, just do what you want."

After Cui Hou finished speaking, he offered his hand, went into the room to change clothes, and went to greet Cui Yi.

In ancient times, some etiquette and norms were still very good, such as the etiquette for the son of man, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, calm in the dark and calm in the morning. In modern times, parents have to take care of their children every morning and evening. As a result, when many children grow up, they always think about me first when something happens, and never consider their parents first. I don’t know this is a kind of behavior. Evolution is still a regression.

Bathing in the Han Dynasty was not easy. There was not a large bucket of hot water available anytime and anywhere. What should I do if I sweat or smell? Ordinary people who don't have the conditions can just endure it. The most common way for the nobles who have the conditions is to change their clothes.

Fei Qian also felt that he needed to go back to the guest room to change his clothes and take a look at the two and a half-year-old children.

To be honest, firstly, the souls of Fei Qian's descendants did not have any sense of reverence for the emperor, and secondly, these two children were too young to arouse any sense of awe.

The older one is in the first and second grade of high school at most. If in later generations it is the period when he suffers from the second grade disease, I will be the oldest in the world. He will be so good when he gets better. It is an age that makes people vomit blood. The younger one is just the first grade of elementary school. The first grade is the cutest and cutest period. Creatures like Shota Luoli can be killed by all types regardless of gender.

The result is that a child of this age has to take over the burden of the entire dynasty, carrying the lives and deaths of millions of people.

When Fei Qian walked slowly and returned to the guest room, he saw that the two children had gotten up under the service of the maid and were eating some pastries and tea. After a short rest, they looked obviously better than last night.

The younger children kept their eyes wandering while eating. They saw Fei Qian through the window, and immediately showed a bright smile and waved to Fei Qian.

Fei Qian also smiled and raised his hand to signal. Just as he was about to walk into the house, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from a distance. Two old men stumbled towards him. Fei Qian was so frightened that he quickly gave way to the road. Come out and stand aside.

The two old men wanted to rush into the room directly, but the door was too small and they both got stuck at the door, which made Fei Qian feel pain for them.

After the two old men finally squeezed in, after a short silence, the two old men fell to their knees with a thud, each holding one of the older child's thighs, crying loudly with tears streaming down his face.

The older child had a look of helplessness on his face, but the younger one's eyes were rolling and he was not affected at all. He ate the cakes in small bites without stopping at all. When he saw Fei Qian's stunned look, he even slightly rushed when no one was paying attention. Zhu Feiqian winked.

At this time, Cui Hou also rushed outside the house. With a look of confusion on his face, he stood next to Fei Qian and explained to Fei Qian softly.

Just now when Cui Hou went to greet Cui Yi, he bumped into Cui Yi and another old man named Mingong. After saying a few words, he learned that Fei Qian had found two children here last night, and the two old men became anxious. Without saying a word, they all rushed over, making Cui Hou a little confused.

Cui Hou didn't know the situation, but Fei Qian knew it well.

Sure enough, as Mingong's hoarse scream "Your Majesty, I am punished by death——", Fei Qian saw Cui Hou visibly trembled, and immediately fell to his knees. When he saw Fei Qian had no reaction, He even tugged on Fei Qian's clothes.

Well, do as the Romans do, and kneel down. Besides, I usually sit down on my knees. Fei Qian also knelt down beside Cui Hou, and everyone inside and outside the courtyard suddenly became half shorter.

"The country cannot live without a king for a day, so please return the capital to your majesty!" The old man Min Gong said sternly, but unfortunately, the tears on his face were a bit distracting.

Of course Cui Yi was not very willing in his heart. Emperor, can you see him if you want to? It took a lot of effort to get home. No matter how you got here, how could you just leave like this? It's a pity that I have no official position now, and Min Gong has taken advantage of me. I can only use the excuse: "Please wait for a moment while I go to prepare the chariots and horses for the honor guard." - At least let people know that my Cui family has also been involved. Powerful! And I hope that I can keep the emperor for a while, so I have to get some benefits, right?

How could the Mingong people not know what Cui Yi was thinking? Besides, there are countless people searching for him now. It would be a great achievement to find him and send him back to Luoyang as early as possible. How could he delay it? If someone cuts you off halfway, won't everything be lost? So he immediately blew his beard and glared: "The matter is urgent! Your Majesty, please leave immediately!" - What should I do if there are too many people taking the credit after being delayed by you?

Cui Yi was very angry. You can still be considered a friend after all, but you only think about yourself at the critical moment? He also said very seriously: "The emperor's ceremonial guard is not in full order, which may damage the majesty of your majesty! If it is not in line with the etiquette, how can you obey the authority?" - You go to get benefits and leave me aside, how can such a good thing happen?

Min Gong said: "I have a horse accompanying me, and I can ride with King Chenliu. I only need to prepare another horse to ride with your majesty! There is no need for other carriages and horses to guard the ceremony. I can ride lightly and simply, and go straight into Luoyang without being caught." "Xiao Xiao Cui Yi, let alone you don't even have a horse?" There are so many carriages, horses and ceremonial guards, how can you avoid being noticed?

After Mingong finished speaking, without waiting for Cui Yi to say anything else, he directly grabbed Emperor Liu Bian's sleeve and walked out, making Cui Yi so angry that he almost lost his breath.

Cui Yi was extremely angry and laughed back: "Okay! Okay! Just follow your words! Prepare a horse!" - You are cruel enough!

Mingong was also extremely bachelor, and without saying a word, he immediately took Emperor Liu Bian, Chenliu and Wang Liu Xie out.

Fei Qian and Cui Hou knelt outside the door. When they saw Min Gong bringing the emperor, King Chenliu, they quickly lowered their heads and did not dare to raise their heads.

Several legs dangled in front of his eyes, and immediately a pair of little feet stopped in front of him. Fei Qian raised his head slightly and saw King Chenliu and Liu Xie standing in front of him. His little hand handed over a piece of pastry and stuffed it into Fei Qian's hand. You eat it." After saying that, he hurriedly ran two steps to catch up with Min Gong and Liu Bian, and left.

Fei Qian pinched the pastry and was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry. This kid is so stupid. How long has it been since he still thought that the pastry tastes good? After taking a closer look, I saw that it was just an ordinary pastry made by Cui Guifang. I put it in my mouth casually, maybe because I had not eaten in the morning and my stomach was empty, but it tasted a bit sweet.

************

Mingong's idea is very good, but unfortunately there are too many people who have the same idea as him. He had just walked less than three miles from the Cui family manor when he was bumped into by a group of people. Previously, Mingong used his official position to oppress Cui Yi in Cuijiazhuang. Now the situation has changed and it is his turn to be marginalized and discriminated against.

Situ Wang Yun, Grand Lieutenant Yang Biao, Left Military Colonel Chunyu Qiong, Right Military Colonel Zhao Meng, Hou Military Colonel Bao Xin, Middle Military Colonel Yuan Shao... none of these people have higher official positions than him, so it is unfortunate that he will not be able to greet him. This matter has nothing to do with Mingong. A group of people once again staged a scene of the monarch and his ministers crying. Strictly speaking, it was Emperor Liu Bian and King Chenliu Liu Xie who watched the ministers cry and then persuaded them to stop.

As for the horse that Cui Yi contributed to Liu Bian, everyone said that it was most important to welcome him back to the court first. They might as well give Cui Yi two horses back when they have free time, which would be a double thank you to him for his contribution to the Han Dynasty. .

Although they have not arrived in Luoyang yet, Situ Wang Yun and his party are already quite happy. The eunuchs were slaughtered and relatives were executed. The world has not been so bright and clear since the founding of the Han Dynasty. How can we not let the politics be so clear and clear? Are people rejoicing?

Situ Wang Yun looked at the rising sun in the distance and felt an awe-inspiring spirit rising up in his chest and abdomen. He suddenly felt that he had a great responsibility. It was finally the turn of our generation, a group of literati who had endured for many years, to show off their talents in this great world. Got it!

Before he could fully imagine the future, he felt the earth shaking abnormally, and the horses everyone was riding began to twist and neigh uneasily.

Situ Wang Yun suddenly looked back. In the distance, a large flag was erected high. Then in the blink of an eye, more flags appeared, fluttering in the strong wind. Under the flags, there was a black mass of people and horses like a flood, along the The avenue pours in.

Situ Wang Yun's hands and feet were trembling, and he was at a loss for a moment. Fortunately, Bao Xin, the rear military commander, stepped forward and shouted for a group of guards to form a formation to protect the emperor, King Chen Liu and the civil servants in the middle.

In an instant, soldiers and horses arrived, surrounding the small military formation. The guards on the outermost circle couldn't help but look a little pale, not to mention the few civilian officials in the formation who had not experienced war.

Yuan Shao halted his horse beside Bao Xin and shouted loudly: "Who is coming?"

Under the banner, the left and right parts separated, and a man rode out from it. He was big and round, with a full face. He looked around coldly, flicked the riding crop in his hand casually, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the emperor?"

The few guards could not resist Dong Zhuo's power and subconsciously looked back at the formation.

Dong Zhuo followed the guard's gaze and looked in. Unfortunately, he was blocked by the crowd in front of him and couldn't see anything. He was very dissatisfied and pointed his riding whip, "Someone, separate them!"

Immediately, military armors came forward to break up the general formation. For a moment, swords and guns were drawn out, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

In the formation, the young emperor Liu Bian held the reins tightly. He had never seen as much blood in his life as he had seen yesterday. There were times when the hot blood splashed on his face and body. Those familiar people who had been with him People were chased and killed one by one like chickens and dogs.

He had just experienced what it felt like to be an emperor, and in the blink of an eye he seemed to be only one step away from death.

He was panicked, he was afraid, he was afraid that the next moment would be like those who died, turning from warm and living to cold and pale.

Today, he was protected and surrounded by people, and his mood calmed down a little. He was about to return to Luoyang, to a place he was familiar with, but he didn't expect that he was almost at the end of the field, but was intercepted here.

These people almost all look the same as the armors that rushed into the palace yesterday. They have ferocious looks and a disgusting smell of blood...

He was really, really scared——

He really, really doesn’t want to die——

Young Emperor Liu Bian couldn't bear the huge ups and downs for a while, his throat rattled, and he was teetering on his horse.
