Chapter 982: The Son of Heaven Returns to the City
The thirteenth day of the lunar month, sunny.
Within the field of vision of the east of Chang'an City, a long queue can be seen in the distance.
The Son of Heaven returned from the winter hunt in Shanglin Yuan, took a chariot, and entered Chang'an from the Bacheng Gate in the east.
As when he went, Yu Linlang held the royal guard of honor and opened the way in front, followed by the emperor's Luan driver and the accompanying civil and military officials.
When I went, hundreds of officials sent each other, but when I returned, I didn't see a figure coming out of the city at the gate of Bacheng.
This time he went to Shanglinyuan for winter hunting, Liu Xie showed his skills and shot more than a dozen prey, and he was in a very happy mood.
He was in a good mood along the way, and he still thought about the fun with his ministers when he went to court. However, when he arrived outside the gate of the city, there was no courtier to greet him, and Liu Xie waited outside the city for a while, but still saw no one, which made his anger uncontrollable.
Am I just so unhanded!
As the confidant of the Son of Heaven, Han Xuan, who has been following him for many years, can figure out the thoughts of the Son of Heaven from even a subtle expression of Liu Xie.
At this moment, the Son of Heaven was obviously in a bad mood.
Han Xuan walked back quickly, walked to the front of Taiwei Yang Biao and Sikong Liu Pu, lowered his voice and asked with a slight reproach: "Two adults, what's going on?" His Majesty's holy car has arrived outside the gate of Bacheng, why don't you see anyone coming to pick it up? Didn't you send someone to inform the officials in Chang'an City in advance and tell them to get ready! ”
Yang Biao and Liu Pu glanced at each other, and this was the first time he had bumped into each other. As early as two days before the Son of Heaven left, they had already sent someone back to Chang'an to inform them, how could no one take the car?
Don't you want to have a head?
Time passed little by little while waiting, and finally Liu Xie really ran out of patience and gave an order to General Yulin Zhonglang: "Enter the city." ”
Anyone can hear that this son of the Han family's tone is mixed with anger.
General Yulin Zhonglang ordered him to retreat, and then waved his hand, and the long team slowly drove into the city.
Back in the palace, Liu Xie changed into the emperor's regular clothes that were red inside and black outside, and was about to send someone to call the officials in the city to ask for guilt, but he heard the eunuchs outside the palace say that the queen asked to see him.
Empress?
Liu Xie's face was suspicious, her queen was gentle and virtuous, if there was no urgency, she would definitely not come to the main hall where Liu Xie handled government affairs.
Now that the queen is here, let go of the matter of scolding those officials.
Liu Xie suppressed the anger in his heart and ordered someone to invite the queen in.
"Your Majesty, you must save the concubine's father!"
A woman wearing a phoenix crown walked in quickly, and a look of anxiety appeared on her beautiful face.
It's none other than the current queen, Fu Shou.
Fu Shou married Liu Xie for many years, and later, under the recommendation of Wang Yun and hundreds of officials, he ascended to the throne of the queen of the world. Over the years, she has taken care of the affairs of the harem in an orderly manner, and the relationship between the two has always been very good, and she has a son, Liu Xie named him Liu Yan, which means that the Han Dynasty can be endless.
"The queen doesn't have to be in a hurry, what's the matter, say it slowly. Even if the sky falls, I will hold you up. Liu Xie beckoned Fu Shou to sit down, relieved, and spoke confidently.
He is the Son of Heaven, the rise and fall of the world, but he is a matter of words.
Hearing Liu Xie's words, Fu Shou felt much more relieved.
Subsequently, she told Liu Xie that she didn't know what the reason was, her father was innocently imprisoned, and even she sent someone to visit, but she was turned away from prison.
After listening to the queen's cry, Liu Xie immediately became angry and scolded on the spot: "Which bastard gave the order!" I'm going to have to skin him! ”
Although Fu Wan is just an auxiliary general with a false title, he is the biological father of Queen Fu Wan and the current abbot.
Without the consent of the Son of Heaven, he was imprisoned, isn't this a blatant slap in the face of Liu Xie!
"Han Xuan, go and find out for me!"
Liu Xie's tone plummeted, and there were two more gloomy points in his voice.
Hearing this, Han Xuan nodded and bowed out of the hall.
It was not until the evening that Han Xuan returned to the palace.
At this time, the hall was brightly lit, but only Liu Xie was sitting, and Queen Fushou was appeased by him and returned to the Jiaofang Palace.
"How's it going?"
Seeing Han Xuan come back, Liu Xie stopped the review in his hand and looked over.
Han Xuan bowed, then waved his hand, and the other attendants in the hall chose to retreat very interestingly.
"Back to Your Majesty, something big has happened." Han Xuan took two steps forward and lowered his voice, his expression particularly solemn.
Liu Xie's eyelids jumped suddenly, and a very bad premonition surged in his heart, but he still motioned for Han Xuan to continue.
The Son of Heaven wanted to listen, Han Xuan naturally didn't dare to hide it, and reported it truthfully: "Your Majesty, during the time when you went to Shanglin Yuan for winter hunting, Chang'an City was turned upside down. In fact, not only the national ruler, but also many officials such as Zong Zhengqing, Taifuqing, and Guanglu Doctor were also imprisoned, and the crimes listed were to commit rebellion and rebellion. Even the old Situ Wang Yun of the three dynasties was not spared......"
Hearing the back, Liu Xie's brows almost frowned into the word 'one', no wonder no one came to pick up the car today, it turned out that they all went to squat in the prison.
"Did you make a move?"
Liu Xie took a deep breath and tried to calm his mind.
The person who has the courage to do this, except for the joke, he can't think of a second person.
Han Xuan nodded, and then said: "It is said that after His Majesty left, the Guozhang took the lead and wanted to strike first, but it was countered by the drama, and the school affairs department, the city defense battalion, the court governor, and many other government agencies all participated in it, and the Guozhang and others were all killed. ”
"This guy who didn't do enough things!"
Liu Xie scolded secretly in his heart, and at the same time asked in annoyance: "There is such a big thing happening in Chang'an City, why hasn't anyone told Yu Zhen!" ”
"Your Majesty, after the incident, Xi Ce ordered the city gate to be blocked. Our news can be transmitted to Chang'an City, but the news in the city cannot be transmitted at all. ”
Han Xuan replied in a low voice.
"This treacherous trick!"
Liu Xie's face was gloomy and he scolded in a low voice, his right hand clenched into a fist, and he slammed it on the tabletop, making a loud 'bang', and the teacup that was flat on the table topped over, and the tea contained in it was scattered in an instant.
Seeing this, Han Xuan hurriedly knelt on the ground and accused: "Your Majesty, the slave is too talkative, the slave should die!" ”
As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and if you are not careful, you are likely to lose your life.
Seeing Han Xuan so frightened, Liu Xie raised his hand and told him to get up.
"Han Xuan, I can't watch these people die!"
Liu Xie's eyes are firm, even if it is at all costs, he wants to keep these people. Even if you can't save it, it's always good to be able to keep half of it.
If these people die, this Chang'an City, no, the entire Guanzhong, will really become one acre and three points of land for the Lu family.
