After thinking for a long time, the little fat man said:
"I and you are like the story of Renzong and the prince!"
Guo Jia smiled softly and said nothing more. The little fat man held his hand cordially and said, "You can go to school with peace of mind. If I have any doubts, I can always look for you and help me clarify my doubts, okay?"
"
Hearing the emperor's words being so polite, Guo Jia was no longer so casual and bowed: "Your Majesty has given orders, and I dare not disobey!"
"Hahaha, good!"
After sending Guo Jia out of the palace, the emperor sat in the Hall of Houde and began to think about it. There were many things that he had to be busy with recently. First of all, he had to meet the Kushan envoy. Although he did not think highly of this barbarian country in his heart, the officials
He attaches great importance to this. The two countries have been on good terms for a long time. As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he cannot be rude. Cao Song of Dahonglu has already prepared for this, and he is afraid that the envoy will arrive in four or five days.
When the time comes, you can host a banquet yourself.
The next thing that was placed next was the establishment of the Zhonglie Hall. The emperor paid more attention to this matter than the assessment. After all, he felt that the Zhonglie Hall could establish his majesty more quickly. In other words, it would be more important.
In order to better win people's hearts and assess everything, he ordered Cai Yong to do it himself, and also sent Xun Yu and Xun You to help. The three of them were busy, and the emperor did not have to do it himself.
This matter of the Zhonglie Hall should still be left to Sikong Yuan Feng. This is within his authority. Although Yuan Feng had some conflicts with the little fat man in his early years, Yuan Shu had an extremely friendly relationship with him, so Yuan Feng and him
The relationship between them also became harmonious, and the little fat man told him that he and Xing Ziang came together to pay a visit. The two came soon, met at the entrance of the palace, bowed to each other, and entered the palace together.
Walk to Houde Hall,
Seeing the emperor holding a book and flipping through it, both of them were stunned. The emperor looked very much like the late emperor at this moment.
The little fat man raised his head and stood up with a smile. At this time, they calmed down. They were similar in appearance but different in spirit. The new king had not yet developed the amazing momentum of Emperor Xiaokang. Every time they came, Emperor Xiaokang
One look could stop them from venting their anger. It was obvious that the emperor did not have such majesty yet, so they sat in front of the emperor.
"Both of you are important ministers of the country... In the future, I will ask you to give me more support... I will thank you for your help in important matters of the country..."
"Your Majesty shames us!"
The two stood up and bowed.
The emperor quickly took them to sit down, chatted for a while, and then said with some sadness: "I once taught my young brother An, told He Zi, and heard about the virtuous deeds of the lord, but the young brother didn't know his name and didn't understand him.
Okay, it really makes me heartbroken..."
"I have been thinking for a long time. In order to prevent these great sages from being forgotten by everyone, I would like to build a hall of loyalty and martyrs in Luoyang, with statues and engraved deeds of the great lords, so that the world will remember them. I wonder, what do you think?"
Yuan Feng and Xing Ziang were startled, looked at each other, looked at the emperor, and said with some excitement: "What your majesty said is absolutely true, your majesty is wise!", they said this from the bottom of their hearts.
Xiu, Wen Renxi and other ministers were not kind, but later on, he realized the pain of Wen Renxi very much. After he became Sikong, he missed Wen Renxi so much every day.
When it comes to respect for Wen Renxi, apart from Ma Jun, there is absolutely no one in the court who can surpass Yuan Feng.
He realized that his usually extraordinary talents were simply not worth mentioning in front of Wen Renggong.
As for Xing Ziang, he has been studying with He Xiu. Although he has no master-disciple status, his feelings for He Xiu are no less than those of the emperor, whether it is Emperor Xiaokang or the current emperor. Therefore, after the two of them heard about it,
They were overjoyed and immediately agreed. After that, they discussed who could enter the Hall of Loyalty and Martyrs.
Xing Ziang said: "We have not discussed this matter enough, so we should discuss it with the ministers!"
The Emperor agreed and Yuan Feng presided over the construction. The Zhonglie Hall was to be built in the southern mansions not far from the imperial palace. This was once the residence of He Zi and Wen Renggong. After their deaths, the place was empty. So it was built here.
It would also be used to offer sacrifices to the emperor in the future, and it would also show the noble status of this place, so Yuan Feng immediately prepared to start construction.
But Xing Ziang went to report to many ministers.
When the ministers heard the news, they immediately became excited. The emperor realized that this was an opportunity to win people's hearts easily, and told the ministers that they could propose candidates. The prefect Yang Biao suggested that the late Situ Yang Ci could be selected. This was his
His biological father, he suggested it just to fulfill his filial piety, and he did not care about face for such things.
There was also Cao Cao, who was far away in Sanhan, who proposed to the late Lieutenant Qiao Xuan.
Zhang He and Lu Zhi suggested that Shi Yangqiu should be appointed governor.
Xing Ziang suggested He Zi.
Yuan Feng proposed to hear Ren Gong.
Liu Biao proposed to the late Lieutenant Liu Ju.
Zhou Yi, the captain of Sili School, suggested that Sikong Zhou Jing should be adopted.
Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian and others jointly proposed, Zhang Huan, Duan Jue, Bao Hong.
Huangfu Song proposed the famous general Huangfu Gui.
The whole Luoyang suddenly became lively, and the emperor had no reason not to allow it. Even Dou Wu, Li Ying and others had their own positions. All the officials were happy, and Yuan Feng started construction quickly. It didn't take long for these to be completed.
The courtyard was transformed into a main hall, and the emperor ordered the craftsmen in the palace to carve stone tablets and engraved his great achievements separately, so that they would be remembered by future generations.
And left Yuan Feng vacant.
With the emperor's move, all the officials knew in their hearts that people like themselves would be able to leave their names here in the future and be respected by all generations. Fame, this is what all officials pursue in their lives. Suddenly, the emperor's prestige was greatly boosted, and all officials were grateful.
, the emperor found that the ministers in the temple treated him with much respect. According to the news from Zhang He, when the ministers gathered together, they were also very impressed by his move.
Before the construction of Zhonglie Hall was completed, the Kushan envoys had already arrived.
The emperor was greeted by hundreds of officials, and the envoys were only a dozen people. Before receiving them, Zheng Xuan told the emperor many things, basically some Kushan etiquette, so that the emperor would not know what misunderstanding had occurred. The leader of the envoys was
The deputy envoy who came with the prince in the past was now the main envoy. When he saw the little emperor in front of him, he sighed, bowed and said:
"Meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Han Dynasty..."
Although his words were awkward, he clearly expressed his meaning.
The emperor nodded and asked them to get up.
They came here just to express their condolences to Emperor Xiaokang. They presented gifts from King Kushan. These gifts were not very valuable. They were the king's pen and ink. This king also wrote in Chinese characters "The Emperor"
After looking at it, I saw that it was the word "Mourning Friends". The writing was quite good, it looked decent, and it was still written in Jianning style.
The emperor accepted the ceremony and gave some gifts. They wanted to worship Emperor Xiaokang, and the emperor followed them.
The envoy suddenly asked: "I wonder if our prince is okay now?"
The emperor suddenly remembered that there was a prince in Guishuang in Han Dynasty, but he couldn't remember where he was. He nodded and said: "He is living a good life, not bad!" The messenger smiled and asked: "I still have a good life."
I want to be able to visit the prince, but where is the prince now?"
"He is in Taixue now. I will take you there later..." Cai Yong stepped forward and said in time.
After hearing this, the messenger was very happy and nodded in agreement.
After that, there were some complicated etiquette, including banquets and greetings. The emperor was not rude at all. He always waited for these to end gently before sending them out of the palace. The envoy followed Cai Yong and the others.
They all went to pay homage to Emperor Xiaokang. Cai Yong was walking with this man. The man smiled gently and said, "Thank you, Mr. Cai, for taking care of our prince..."
"The prince is kind, no need to thank him."
"Alas, although my prince is also kind, he is just... a little talkative and less quiet..."
The translator on the side translated, Cai Yong shook his head and said: "No problem, now, your prince has been calm for a long time, and I haven't seen him speak for a long time..."
"Huh?" The messenger was a little confused. He knew that his prince had always had a restless temper, was restless, talked a lot, and would talk wherever he went. How could he become less talkative now? Could it be that someone
Insulted? He frowned and followed Cai Yong to the gate of Taixue. Before he entered, he saw a familiar person standing in front of the stone scripture in the distance.
Sure enough, he didn't say anything anymore, he was grimacing and quiet.
The messenger Subati was startled and hurriedly walked towards him. When he passed by, he discovered that there was another person beside the prince who was chattering something. The prince listened with a grimace.
The prince turned his head and saw the messenger, and then he shouted with some joy: "Subati! You are here!!" The people around him also turned their heads in confusion.
"Your Highness, long time no see, how are you?"
"I...don't say any more. Now you're here, but you want to take me away? Let's leave now!" He said quickly, took a step away from the person next to him, and walked to the envoy's side. The envoy was a little confused.
Looking solemnly at the man in the distance, the man laughed and said in proficient Kushan dialect: "This is the Supoti you often call me. My name is Liu Donghao. It turns out that I am Lord Donghao.
Later he returned to the Han Dynasty..."
"The Goguryeo people once invaded us, used us as prey, and killed us arbitrarily. We produced fish and shrimps, as well as big fish with dragon beards..."
"You two, I'm resigning for the time being. If anything happens, you can come to see me in Taixue!" Cai Yong quickly handed over his hands and left here as if running away. Subati's face twitched and asked with some confusion: "You
Why do you speak Kushan language?”
"Of course Nishaka taught me. I also taught him Yayan. Of course, there is also this stone scripture. I learned it faster than him. Now, I am also very good in Kushan language. I don't know why, I learned it.
I always pick up other languages very quickly. I also learned Yayan for three or four years back then, and now I have learned Kushan dialect in less than a year. I am now proficient in four languages...for example...
"
Subati stared blankly at the man in front of her, then turned her head hesitantly and looked at the prince, who was about to cry but had no tears.
"Supati, I don't want to stay with you anymore. Take me away now. I miss home..."
Finally, when the other party had a chance to breathe, Subati immediately said: "I haven't seen the prince for a long time, and I want to talk alone. Can you forgive me?"
"Of course I can understand. Niseka and I are close friends. I hit it off with him since..."
Supoti took the prince and fled quickly, and hurriedly walked towards the inn. When he reached the door of the inn, the prince secretly looked behind him and saw the evil man standing not far away with a smile.
He waved his hand towards him, and the prince fled into the inn in fear. He took Supoti's hand and cried, "You don't know, I have lived so happily in these years, but this guy...
.”
"This guy came to Taiyuan University years ago and set his sights on me..."
"I was kind enough to teach him Kushan language..."
"It's been a whole year, I just can't bear it..."
Subati's expression was very serious. He looked around secretly, pulled the prince into the inner room, took out the letter from his sleeve, and handed it to the prince. The prince was stunned, took the letter, and read it.
He walked over and took a look, but he was shocked. He hurriedly said: "How is brother?? He???"
"Oh, it's already stated in the letter...Prince, please don't ask any more questions..."
"No, I'm going to leave now and go back to Kushan..."
"Prince!" Supoti stopped him immediately. After hesitating for a long time, he said, "Your Highness doesn't know... Before I left, the Crown Prince told me to... poison His Highness..."
"Him?! How could that happen!"
"Prince... don't go back to Kushan... This is the king's order... I can't talk too much to His Highness. After all, I am a minister of Kushan. In the future, I will still respect the new king, even if he
He is a tyrant who wants to kill his uncle... I hope Your Highness will forgive me!" After Subati said, he bowed heavily to the prince and left the inn.
The prince was walking on the street in confusion. He still couldn't believe it. His brother was more than ten years older than him and he always loved him so much. For his nephew, he also loved him very much and doted on him in every possible way.
, but now, does the nephew he loves the most want to kill him?
He walked alone on the streets of Luoyang for a long time...
At night, he sat alone on the roof of the Taixue Hall, looking up at the stars, closing his eyes, and silently praying for his brother.
"Ah, it turns out that you are here and you didn't even tell me!" Mr. Dong Hao walked over from behind cautiously and said with a smile: "I couldn't find you anywhere. I asked others but they didn't tell me.
I, I searched everywhere and found you..."
Niseka didn't reply, he raised his head and closed his eyes, but tears kept falling.
Dong Haojun was stunned and asked cautiously: "Brother...why are you doing this?"
"My brother passed away..."
"Condolences..."
Dong Haojun said something, then sat next to him and rubbed his sore feet. Today, he walked a lot of distance in order to find Nisejia. He stayed quietly for a long time and said:
"Are you really homesick...?"
"I also have a brother who is ten years older than me. I have three brothers and two sisters..."
"That year, the Goguryeo people came, and they killed my biological father and my mother..."
"My brother held tightly to the hoofs of their horses and was trampled to death by the horses, but he kept yelling at me to run away..."
"I'm running, running..."
"Running into the mountains, I was the only one..."
"At that time, I was only nine years old..."
"At night, I was so scared... I could only talk to myself... I kept talking to myself..."
"I stayed in the mountains for fourteen years before I was rescued. Because I am the best at escaping...I became the king of Dongyi again..."
"If you feel lonely, you might as well have a few words with yourself..."
"Perhaps your brother can still hear it??"
Dong Haojun said with a smile,
In the darkness of the night, the prince could vaguely see the traces of tears on his face.
