Chapter 952: The Magnificent Power of Han (Seventy-Six)
In the new year of the Han Dynasty, everything is prosperous. Tianhe, Liaoxi, Langya and other places that have been devastated by war are recovering rapidly. Langya, Tianhe and other places were originally sacred places. Coupled with the comprehensive implementation of the Han Dynasty's land policy, These counties and counties suddenly glowed with unprecedented vitality. The smooth implementation of Han's land policy in Langya, Tianhe and other places also benefited from the invasion of Qi, which wiped out the local wealthy landowners, and a large number of The unowned land was captured by the Han State, which also made it possible to encounter little resistance during the implementation process.
As for Liaodong, after tens of thousands of Qin people were injected into it, and the previously captured Qi troops were dispersed and resettled, the ratio of ethnic minorities to Central Plains people finally rose to a ratio that could maintain stability, and the production and life in Liaodong began to enter a new stage. In the stage of smooth transition, small-scale disturbances and riots became less and less, which also allowed Kumamoto and Luo Weiran to finally dispatch some of their troops to return to their homeland to rest and prepare for the future battle to unify the Central Plains.
War has always been an effective weapon to destroy old shackles and create a new order.
As the supreme controller of the Han Kingdom, Gao Yuan left everything behind today. He dressed in plain clothes and led a group of personal guards to Jicheng. Today, He Lanyan led his youngest son. On the day when Gao Mingzhi arrived in Jicheng from Jishi City, Gao Yuan decided to go out of the city to greet him and also let himself relax at the same time.
Entering Jicheng and entering the palace, you are far less free than you were in Jishi City. Whenever you want, you can take your horse out of the city and gallop on the endless prairie. After leaving the palace here, you can only Seeing the row upon row of houses and the criss-crossing streets, Gao Yuan felt very uncomfortable for a moment.
It's April in spring, the season when the sun shines brightly and everything grows. I walk on the road and look to the left and right. Among the patches of streets, crops that have just grown about a foot long are covering the original soil with green. , in the sky, birds fly freely, sometimes fluttering their wings straight into the night sky, sometimes swooping close to the ground and then flying up. Farmers carry hoes and lead old cows, wandering freely on the field paths, with the cows carrying their backs. The children on the street played the transverse flute, which was melodious and melodious. From the farmhouse in the distance, the sound of cocks and dogs barking could be clearly heard. On both sides of the road, the large evergreen branches and leaves moved slightly in the wind, and the green grass under the trees blossomed red. There are little yellow and blue flowers dotted with bees and butterflies lingering among the flowers.
The horse's hooves stepped on the road paved with gravel on the gallop, making a crisp sound. Gao Yuan looked at all this and was in a good mood. The so-called paradise was nothing more than this. He was entangled with endless documents, and for a while I just feel refreshed and refreshed, as if I have returned to the happy days of riding horses all over the world.
The Zidian horse under the crotch is a sacred horse that Agu Huai'en of the Donghu tribe took great pains to find as a tribute to Gao Yuan. However, since arriving in Jicheng, there are few days when it gallops like lightning, even though there are guards every day. He took it for a stroll in the palace, but this psychic horse had always been depressed. This time he got the opportunity to run as much as he wanted. Gao Yuan just lightly reined the horse, and it already neighed excitedly and ran away. Huan'er ran forward. His acceleration was so fast that even Gao Yuan, who was an excellent horseman, was almost thrown off his horse and couldn't help but laugh and curse.
Although the acceleration is fast, after running for a long time, you will realize the benefits of Zidian. It is indeed a good horse collected by Agu Huaien. Although the speed is extremely fast, except for the slight bump at the beginning, it will not last long after that. It was extremely stable. It had been a long time since Gao Yuan had driven his horse as much as he wanted, and he couldn't help but scream with excitement.
This was a hard time for the guards who came out with Gao Yuan. Although their horses were one of the best horses in a hundred, they were still a few grades behind Zidian. Although they whipped the horses desperately, they still couldn't catch up. They were so anxious. The commander of the guards, He Weiyuan, was sweating profusely and kept shouting at the king to slow down.
On the wide galloping road, dozens of majestic carriages were slowly moving forward, escorted by hundreds of fully armed soldiers. The flags fluttering showed that these people were from the Young Guards, and they were riding tall horses. Walking in the front were actually several women. The first one was wearing a dress that was very different from the Central Plains. She was holding an infant in her arms. On her left and right sides, there were two people wearing clothes. A dashing woman wearing soft armor and carrying a scimitar at her waist.
Looking at the majestic carriages guarded by the Young Guards, the people coming and going on the road all understood that the people protected by these big-headed soldiers were either rich or noble, but they still couldn't help but After taking a closer look at the first few women, I saw that there were very few women in Jicheng who were riding war horses and walking on the road like this, let alone women wearing battle armor and carrying swords.
Some people who are well-informed have roughly guessed the identity of the first woman. The three wives of King Gaoyuan of Han Dynasty. The eldest lady is Ye Jing'er, the daughter of Ye Tiannan, the former chief minister of the Yan Kingdom. They and the King of Han had left a daughter to be my long hair and The second lady is not just an ordinary person, but the daughter of Ning Zecheng, the imperial censor who was one of the three carriages of the Yan Kingdom as famous as Ye Xiang. Ning Xin, this third lady, is very mysterious to the people of Jicheng. Most people only know that she is a Huns. When the King of Han conquered the world, she trained the invincible cavalry for the King of Han. She is also a very brave man. 's warrior.
Many people think that such a famous female general must be like a big female with a big waist and round arms. Compared with the previous two ladies, she must be as small as a star or a bright moon. The king of Han married her as his wife, but she was just In order to reward him for his contribution to the Han Dynasty's conquest of the world, he actually won over the Huns and tied them to the Han's chariot.
But when they saw it today, everyone was greatly surprised. The woman on the horse had a beautiful face. Even if she was not a natural beauty, she was still beautiful and dignified. She was completely incompatible with the ferocious female insect in their imagination. Her beautiful face was matched with that full-length dress. They are all dressed in exotic outfits, and with the two female guards beside them, they look particularly amorous.
"Madam, please come and rest in the carriage!" A man dressed as a scribe behind him rushed up on horseback, whispering with lowered eyebrows and eyes.
"Sir, Mr. Qiu, you are too wordy. Along the way, you have been making noises several times every day. I have been bored to death in the past few months, and it's not all because you are in high school. The eldest brother and sister Jing'er talked too much in front of me, which is why they sent people to guard me and prevent me from going out. Finally I was able to go out and ride horses, but you always come to spoil the fun." He Lanyan said to Qiu Debao with an unhappy face. At a glance, he said, "I've been raising this horse for several months, and I feel like I can't exert all my strength. I've gained more than ten pounds. You still don't allow me to ride a horse. Do you want me to become a big fat man?"
Behind them, Ula and Sula covered their mouths and laughed. Apparently, this kind of drama happened several times a day along the way, and they were not surprised by it.
"Madam, it's okay for you to ride a horse, but the little prince is still young. He was less than a month old when he was born, and his body is weak, so he really can't withstand the wind." Qiu Debao said with a sad face.
"How can I, He Lanyan's son, be so weak as you say?" He Lanyan held the son in her arms in front of Qiu Debao, "Look, he is white, fat, and so strong, but you still said that he is weak. You are just telling lies with open eyes!"
When she stretched out, Qiu Debao was startled. He quickly stretched out his hands and spread them under He Lanyan's hands. He was afraid that the careless master would accidentally drop the little prince and fall off the horse. He didn't even think about it. She is the brave champion of the three armies. Not to mention such a child who weighs more than ten kilograms, even if she carries dozens or hundreds of kilograms in her hand, it will be stable and will not fall.
As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. This little prince has a noble status.
Seeing Qiu Debao's panic, He Lanyan smiled, retracted her hands and hugged her son back, "It's okay, Mr. Qiu, this boy's parents are both heroes, how can he be so bad? I listen to my brother He said that in the early years, my parents went to war a few days after I was born. My father used a piece of cloth to carry me in his arms. Even as the rebels came and went, he never saw that I was missing a piece of flesh. This point What’s the wind? What’s more, there’s no wind here. The sun is shining brightly and the sky is blue and white. It’s just the right time for my son to get some air. He’ll really get sick if he’s stuck in a carriage all day long!”
Qiu Debao had a grimace on his face. Whenever he argued with this lady, she would always do the same thing and speak sharply. How could he be better than her? But who said that having a fair and fat body must be strong? In his case In the opinion of the old doctor, the little prince suffered a lot when he was in the womb, and later he was born before the first month of pregnancy. This is a congenital disadvantage. If he is not raised well the day after tomorrow, he will definitely be born with deficiencies when he grows up. But this is the case. , but he did not dare to tell He Lanyan that if the master got angry, he would probably be whipped down.
Just as he was about to give some words of advice, Sura and Wula behind He Lanyan suddenly shouted, and a group of horses rushed in front of He Lanyan. At the same time, the young guards behind him also sounded a sharp police whistle, and suddenly pulled With a sound, dozens of horses lightly crossed the crowd in front and stopped in front of He Lanyan. Following the order, more than ten horses moved forward, and immediately thrust out their spears. Behind them, more than a dozen armed crossbows were ready. It was raised, and the soldiers placed the crossbow on their bent arms, holding their breath and aiming forward.
He Lanyan raised her head in surprise. In the distance, a horse was galloping towards here like the wind. The rider on the horse was obviously very skilled, but the horse was too fast. Even if the pedestrians on the gallop were walking on both sides, Some people were so frightened that they rushed out of the Chidao and ran into the farmland outside.
The leader of this group of young guards, He Weigao, looked solemn. With a choke, he unsheathed his sword and shouted loudly: "Arrow your crossbow, get ready!" Behind him, the third wife of the King of Han and the little prince could not make any mistakes. , if the horse on the opposite side does not slow down, it will be knocked over by a burst of arrows.
A smile appeared on He Lanyan's face at this moment, "Stop, that's Brother Gao!"
Brother Gao? He Weigao didn't react for a while, but then he suddenly realized that the brother Gao in the lady's mouth was the King of Han. He was shocked and shouted hurriedly: "Put it down, put the crossbow down!"
The crossbow was lowered, but the dozen or so young guardsmen in front of them with their spears pointed out had already come forward. As they moved forward, they shouted: "Stop those who are coming and dismount."
Seeing more than a dozen soldiers approaching the visitor quickly, the sweat on He Weigao's face instantly fell like a waterfall. (To be continued)
