After Liu Hong finished speaking, he asked: "Does Chen Qing have any difficulties in taking charge of Yueqi?"
Chen Cheng thought for a while and asked: "Yueqi is one of the five battalions of the Northern Army. Do I have to listen to the general's orders?"
Liu Hongdao: "Since Yue Qi has been transferred to Zhi Jinwu's tent, there is no need to obey the general's orders. If the army goes on an expedition and Yue Qi needs to be transferred back to the general's command, the imperial court will naturally have an order."
Chen Cheng added: "I have just arrived here, and I am taking charge alone. I am afraid that the generals in the army will not accept it. Can I send some of my former subordinates and old acquaintances to the capital?"
"Okay, who do you want to transfer here?"
Chen Cheng then named Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Wei Ran, Ding Yuan, Zhao Si, and Guan Shanhe. Liu Hong waited for him to finish and said to Zhang Rang beside him: "Draw up the decree."
Zhang Rang quickly brought the bright yellow silk and said: "Which official should be declared to enter the palace to issue the imperial edict?"
"No need, it's not like making a prince or a general, just write it in the official letter."
So Zhang Rang sat in front of the desk, thought for a moment, and then wrote the edict on silk. After writing, he put down the brush made of wolf hair, blew on the silk, handed it to Liu Hong, and said: "Your Majesty, please
Take a look."
Liu Hong looked at it and thought it was okay, then he took the seal handed over by Fu Baolang and used it to seal the edict. Huangmen Shilang took the edict and sent it to Sangongcao.
As soon as Huangmen Shilang rode away, a group of people gathered around the phoenix chariot outside the palace and came over. The carriage stopped in front of Deyang Hall, and the eunuch shouted at the top of his voice: "The queen is here!"
The maid stepped forward and opened the curtain. Queen He held her son Liu Bian from left to right, and held Wannian Princess Liu Qian with her right hand and walked down. The surrounding maids and eunuchs knelt down together, but Chen Cheng knelt down on one knee, then raised his head and stole a glance.
Looking over, I saw a woman dressed in fine clothes walking over. She was very beautiful, with a majestic face, nine points of charm and a hint of evil spirit, which made her even more heroic.
Queen He had an oval-shaped face and looked to be in her mid-twenties. She walked lightly to the emperor and said a long blessing. Liu Hong looked at her and frowned, saying: "
How did you come?"
Queen He said: "Your Majesty has not been coming to Changqiu Palace for a long time, so I have no choice but to come and visit your Majesty."
Liu Hongdao: "Didn't Da Changqiu tell you? I am busy with state affairs now, and I will naturally go there when I have some free time."
Queen He looked at Liu Xie beside the emperor, with a trace of anger rising in her eyes, but she smiled and said: "Chang Shi Zhao said, but the emperor and Princess Wannian haven't seen your majesty for a long time, and they are clamoring to come over.
There is nothing I can do about it."
Liu Bian is already twelve years old, and he is almost ready to marry outside, but he grew up in the hands of a woman in the palace, and he still looks a little childish. When Liu Hong saw Liu Bian, he didn't like it.
But he still felt very sorry for his daughter Liu Qian. He sighed and said, "It's windy outside, so go inside and talk."
Liu Qian was two years younger than Liu Bian and had two goat horns on her hair. She walked up to Liu Hong, took her father's hand with a smile and said, "Father, why haven't you come to the Beigong for a long time?
"
Liu Hong touched the horns on her head and said with a smile: "You are already a big girl, why are you still thinking about playing?"
He took his three children into the main hall first, and Queen He followed behind, surrounded by palace officials. After walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked, "Are you the newly appointed Jinwu?"
Chen Cheng's five senses were several times stronger than those of ordinary people. When Empress He walked up to her, she felt that the fragrance was fragrant. It was somewhat similar to the perfume that girls often smelled in the past, but there were some differences. He couldn't tell the specific differences.
, it seems that the queen is wearing powder, and there is a little more dust in the air in front of her.
Hearing Queen He's question, Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Chen Cheng, please see the Queen."
Queen He couldn't help but feel dazed for a moment when she saw his clear features and cheerful smile. Her heart beat faster. She quickly lowered her eyes and said, "It's been a long time since the imperial court has set up an official to serve His Majesty."
After saying that, Queen He hurriedly chased into Deyang Palace.
Chen Cheng: ".........Yes."
Zhang Rang walked a little slower and fell behind. When the emperor and the empress entered the hall, he slowly walked over and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Zhi Jinwu, who as Zhi Jinwu also serves as the captain of the Yue Cavalry School. Tsk
, the next generation is to be feared, the next generation is to be feared.”
When Chen Cheng saw the joy in the other person's eyes, which was completely opposite to the disgusted expression when he saw him before, Chen Cheng felt something in his heart, he was smiling so brightly, he must have evil intentions! Lord Wei had already said it, the man smiled brightly,
It’s not a good thing!
Wait, is Zhang Rang a man? He might have been before, but he is definitely not now.
Bah, even if he is not a man, he is not a good thing.
Chen Cheng smiled and said: "It all depends on Zhongshu Ling's wonderful writing. If you need my help with anything in the future, please feel free to ask me."
Zhang Rang smiled and said: "Seriously?"
"really."
Zhang Rang laughed with satisfaction, turned around and walked inside. But as soon as he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared without a trace. The more the emperor trusted Chen Cheng, the more jealous he became. How could he be sincere?
intersect?
In the main hall, Liu Hong and Queen He were sitting on the couch talking, while Liu Bian was playing with Liu Xie and Liu Qian.
"It's windy outside today, shall we go fly a kite?" Princess Liu Qian shook her head and said, "I have a brocade-colored kite, it's so beautiful!"
Liu Xie shouted: "I don't want to fly a kite, I want to play war!"
He pulled Liu Bian's sleeve and said, "Brother, let's go to war!"
Liu Bian looked at Liu Qian in embarrassment and said, "How about you go fly a kite, and my brother and I go play fighting?"
Liu Qian snorted, raised her head and ran to Liu Hong's side, shouting: "Father, they won't let me play!"
Liu Hong smiled and held his daughter in his arms, saying: 'Let them play, can you stay here with your father?'
"kindness!"
Liu Xie took Liu Bian to the eaves outside, took a wooden sword from the hands of the guards, handed it to his brother, danced messily for a while, and said: "Look at the sword!"
Liu Bian came up to him with his sword straight, and slashed wildly. The two chased and quarreled for a while, running from the inside of the store to the outside, and then from the outside to the inside. Queen He couldn't stand it and scolded him.
: "Liu Bian, you are already a teenager, and you are still fighting and making trouble. How unbecoming you are!"
Liu Hong said, "Just let the children play. Why do you care so much?"
Queen He's eyes were full of authority and she said with a cold face: "Just because you are a child, you must be disciplined!"
Liu Hong was displeased and said: "The queen wants to take care of the emperor's prince, so she goes to the North Palace. What are you doing here?"
Seeing that the emperor was angry, Empress He softened her tone and said, "Why do you have to suffer so much, your majesty? Just leave national affairs to the generals and the others to handle."
Liu Hong was speechless.
Outside Deyang Palace, Liu Bian and Liu Xie were tired from playing. They sat on the steps of the royal road, biting their ears and talking about children. As they were talking, Liu Xie suddenly pointed at Chen Cheng and said: "This is the father of the emperor."
Zhi Jinwu, he is very powerful."
Liu Bian raised his head and looked at Chen Cheng and said, "You are so tall. You look similar to a military captain, but you are better-looking than him."
Chen Cheng smiled and said, "What does this mean? I have a friend named Guan Yu who is taller than me."
Liu Bian was surprised and said: "He's actually taller than you? Doesn't that mean he must be this tall?"
He opened his arms and made a gesture.
Chen Cheng said: "Yes, he is so tall. I have never seen anyone taller than him."
After thinking for a while, he added: "I heard that there is a man named Lu Bu who is also very tall, but I have never seen him."
"It would be great if I could grow that tall," Liu Bian said enviously: "My mother has always said that I am a child. Wait until I grow that tall..."
He imagined what he would look like when he grew up and laughed.
The emperor's eldest son is actually not short either. He is already over four feet tall and close to five feet tall. He is a little thin, but compared with the maids and eunuchs in the palace, he is not bad.
Chen Cheng said: "If you want to grow taller, eat more meat and vegetables, and run more."
While they were talking, a group of men and horses came towards Deyang Palace. The leader was a tiger-backed man, eight feet tall, with a beard three inches below his chin. Who else could it be if he wasn't Jian Shuo? Jian Shuo just pretended not to see Chen Cheng and commanded the Xiyuan Army.
After the change of guard was completed, he came over and kowtowed to Liu Bian and Liu Xie.
Liu Bian tilted his head and asked, "Others will kneel down when they see me. Why don't you kowtow?"
Jian Shuo stood up and sneered at Chen Cheng.
Chen Cheng pressed his sword and said sternly: "I am wearing armor, so I cannot perform the ceremony properly!"
The corner of Jian Shuo's mouth twitched, and he became more and more contemptuous of this mean man. He said to Zhao Zhong who was guarding the two princes: "Diao Dang, is the queen here?"
Zhao Zhong smiled, and the folds on his face squeezed together again. He said in a high-pitched and thin voice: "The Queen is talking to Your Majesty inside. If the Colonel has nothing important to do, please wait here for a while."
Jian Shuo and Zhao Zhong then stood side by side. Both of them were eunuchs, but one had an arrogant and angry beard, and was definitely a villain; the other had a soft voice, was not tall to begin with, and was curvy.
With your waist crotched, you look even more vulgar.
Liu Bian looked at Chen Cheng, then at Jian Shuo, made gestures, and said: "You two are so tall, who will be more powerful?"
Chen Cheng said: "You must be a more powerful military captain."
Jian Shuo couldn't help but sneer after hearing this, but Liu Bian continued to ask: "Why?"
Chen Cheng was about to say: He had a thicker beard, but he thought that the other person was a eunuch, so he just smiled and did not answer.
Liu Bian asked again, and Jian Shuo suddenly said: "Your Highness wants to know who of us is more powerful, can't we find out if we have a fight?"
"Ah, that's a good idea!" Liu Bian clapped his hands and said, "Then you all compete now!"
Jian Shuo sneered at Chen Cheng and said, "Since Your Highness has a destiny, how about I reluctantly do it?"
Chen Cheng smiled slightly and said: "The commander-in-chief said that it was difficult for me, so please don't make things difficult for me."
Liu Bian shouted, "I order you to compete!"
Chen Cheng said casually: "Your Highness, the military commander and I are both ministers of the imperial court. How can we play and fight like children?"
When he first accompanied the emperor, he was a little nervous. But after two or three days, although he was still very careful, the nervousness completely disappeared. Although the palace was large, in his eyes
But er, although the emperor is noble, he is only a human body.
Liu Bian was stunned for a moment, then said angrily: "You treat me like a child! I'm going to tell my mother!"
After saying that, he pulled Liu Xie and ran into the palace. Zhao Zhong quickly followed with a few Huangmen and palace maids.
