Chapter 7 Ten years, see you again "Why haven't you come yet?"
The person who said this was Zhang Rang, the Zhongchang attendant who was sent by Emperor Liu Hong to pick up his younger brother.
At noon, Zhang Rang and his entourage were standing at the east gate of Luoyang outer city.
That's right.
Thanks to Liu Han, Zhang Rang was able to do Liu Han's errands well every time, which caught Liu Hong's eye. Zhang Rang was promoted from the Xiaohuangmen to the regular servant, successfully replaced Cao Jie's position, and became a close minister of the emperor. .
There was no need for Zhang Rang to come in person to welcome Liu Han this time, but Zhang Rang came anyway knowing Liu Han's status in the hearts of His Majesty and the Queen Mother.
suddenly.
Dust was flying in the distance and the ground was shaking.
Zhang Rang looked frightened. How could a thief who knew nothing about life or death dare to run wild in the suburbs of Luoyang?
You must read his book! Not far away, I saw a general galloping towards Luoyang with a panicked look on his face, followed by strong soldiers behind him.
"Huang Zhong? Yulin Wei!"
Zhang Rang recognized that the person was Huang Zhong, and his heart skipped a beat, "Oh no, something happened!"
# Yongle Palace.
Today was originally a happy day.
Empress Dowager Dong had not seen her youngest son for ten years and heard that the emperor had sent someone to pick him up.
but Once a person receives it, he or she falls into a coma.
Now he is lying in the bedroom.
The child is still so young. I haven't seen each other for ten years, and when I meet, I have to give the white-haired person to the black-haired person? "Who is it? Who is trying to harm my son!"
"If something happens to my son, you will all die!"
Empress Dowager Dong, who had been gentle for many years, was like a furious lion at this moment, displaying the aura of a superior.
In Yongle Palace, everyone except Emperor Liu Hong fell to the ground and knelt down.
Imperial physician Dong Feng hurriedly walked out of the side hall and knelt down: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother."
"Tell me, how is my son?"
"Hou Ji from Zhongshui County was born in a natural state. Although he fell from a horse, he only suffered skin injuries and did not injure his muscles or bones."
"Then why isn't my son awake?"
"The Marquis may have been frightened and held his breath in his heart, so he didn't wake up for the time being. Once Wei Chen prescribes some calming medicine, the County Marquis will be fine."
"Then why are you kneeling here! Go quickly!"
"Here!"
Dong Feng got up and wiped the cold sweat from his head, then stumbled out to prescribe medicine.
"Huang Hansheng!"
"The end is here."
"You have been with Han'er for almost ten years, tell me! Tell me everything clearly. If you miss anything, I will kill you!"
"Here!"
Huang Zhong is regretful now! I thought everyone in the Tian family had a similar temper to the young Marquis, but the reality is haha!
That kind of momentum made a warrior like Huang Zhong breathless. Huang Zhong, who had killed countless people, had trembling hands and feet at this moment. He had no strength and didn't even dare to raise his head and look at each other.
This is the Son of Heaven! Anger will kill millions of people.
Suppressing the fear in his heart, Huang Zhong told everything that happened in the suburbs, from riding a horse in the suburbs to a stray arrow frightening the horse, to later killing the assassin and capturing the old man.
"What about the old man?"
"The Yulin Guards brought him, his family and all the corpses in the forest back."
"Bring it up!"
"Here!"
Zhang Rang retreated outside the palace and took the people with him.
# "Cao Yong, a common man, pays homage to His Majesty!"
"Cai Yong?"
Liu Hong was confused, why was Cai Yong brought here?Wasn't he demoted from his position and left Luoyang?
"The grass people are here."
"Then tell me."
"According to the order."
Cai Yong said that he was framed and was ambushed when he left Luoyang and the suburbs. When he talked about his wife being killed, he couldn't help but shed tears. "I don't want to hear this! I want to know why the emperor's younger brother was defeated!"
"The Cao Min didn't know. The Cao Min only knew that all the Cao Min's servants were killed. Just when they were about to die, the Yulin Guards came out and beheaded all the thieves. Then the general tied up the Cao Min's family and brought them here."
Liu Hong listened to Huang Zhong and Cai Yong's words and tapped his fingers on the table regularly.
An hour later, Zhang Rang walked in and quietly told Liu Hong the results of his investigation.
"Your Majesty, there are indeed traces of fighting in the suburbs of the east gate. It is indeed possible that the assassins accidentally injured the Marquis. Moreover, some servants recognized that several of the assassins came from the mansion of Yang Qiu, the master craftsman."
Everything is right.
"So, the emperor's brother suffered an unreasonable disaster?"
"Yes."
After Zhang Rang finished speaking, he stepped aside.
The matter can be big or small, it all depends on how the emperor handles it.
Suddenly, a palace official came running from the side hall, "Your Majesty, Madam, the Marquis is awake!"
"Wake up!"×2 # "My lady."
Empress Dowager Dong pushed open the door of the side hall and ran quickly to Liu Han's bedside, followed closely by Emperor Liu Hong.
Seeing her little son whom she thought about day and night, Empress Dowager Dong covered her mouth and burst into tears instantly.
At this moment, there is just a mother who misses her son.
"Mother."
Liu Hong walked aside and comforted softly.
Liu Han slowly opened his eyes, and his mother, whom he had not seen for ten years, appeared in front of him, and Liu Han's tears suddenly flowed down unsatisfactorily.
I haven't seen her for ten years, and the scars of time seem to have not harmed my mother. She is still as beautiful as ever, but she is more graceful and luxurious.
"My child, you are so scared to death!"
Empress Dowager Dong held Liu Han's hand tightly and said in a sweet voice.
"Mother, the child is unfilial and makes you worry!"
Liu Han said guiltily.
"Han'er, just be fine."
"Brother, brother."
Liu Hong was stunned, "Let's call him brother, we are a family."
"Hey, brother!"
"Hahahahaha!"
Liu Hong thought of the naughty little monkey again.
"Brother, can you tell me what's going on?"
When Liu Han woke up, the first thing he did was of course ask about the situation, otherwise it would appear abnormal.
Liu Hong did not hide anything and told Liu Han everything.
"So, Mr. Cai was chased by his enemies, and I happened to meet him. I suffered an unreasonable disaster?"
Liu Han concluded.
"What an unnecessary disaster! They deserve to die! Emperor, what do you think?"
The harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, and it was obviously useless this time in front of the angry Queen Mother.
"This"
Liu Hong originally wanted to minimize the big issue. After all, this matter involved many important officials in the court.
Seeing Liu Hong's hesitation, Liu Han pretended to be casual and asked: "Brother, is Luoyang so dangerous? Is there anyone who dares to kill people blatantly in the suburbs?"
After hearing these words, Liu Hong's demeanor changed instantly, and he changed from his previous elegance.
Yes, as an emperor, scholars like Luoyang, who are very close at hand, dare to do this, but what about outside Luoyang?Are the emperor's words useless? "Mother, brother, you guys have a good rest. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer tomorrow."
# Not far from Yong'an Palace, Liu Hong suddenly stopped and asked, "Tell me, my dear friend, are my decrees meaningless outside of Luoyang?"
When Zhang Rang heard the emperor's words, he quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty is the emperor, and the world belongs to you. Who dares not to obey you!"
"Ha! It's still not enough. After a while, it started jumping again."
After saying that, Liu Hong returned to his bedroom without looking back.
Behind him, Zhang Rang's back was already wet. "Tomorrow, someone will be unlucky again."
