Wei and Jin Cooks - Chapter 816
It was also the first time for Hu Yanping to enter the palace. He didn’t show it on the face, but he was very nervous in his heart, so he squeezed hard between Zhong Yao and his eldest son, wishing to stick to Zhong Yao’s body.
Especially to go to the mourning hall, you need to walk a long section of steps. On both sides of the steps are guards holding spears or big knives. Their eyes are more sharp than the guards on the Imperial City Road just now. Hu Yanping followed Zhong Yao step by step. Lie on top of him.
Zhong Yao: …so aggressive, can you do a good job of booing?
At this moment, Zhong Yao doubted his vision.
On the other hand, the Huyan Wenwu brothers walked up with their heads held high and their faces serious.
Before approaching the main hall, they heard crying inside.
Zhao Hanzhang did not intend to continue to use the Pingyang Palace, and did not shy away from this, so he directly set Liu Yuan’s mourning hall in the main hall.
The people who came to express their condolences fell to their knees and howled towards the coffin in the middle. Among Liu Yuan’s sons, only Liu Yi was there. After a while, the tears stopped flowing, but there was still grief on his face.
As soon as Hu Yanping saw the coffin, his heart returned. He cried “Wow”, ran forward, fell to his knees, beat the ground and cried loudly, “Your Majesty, you protect your subjects like an eagle. Leave us like this and go, what do you want us to do…”
Hu Yanwen and Hu Yanwu also had red eyes, knelt behind their father and kowtowed.
Zhong Yao stepped forward and knelt beside Hu Yanping, tears streaming down his face. He didn’t say much, but respectfully kowtowed a few times, then walked forward on his knees, touching the foot of the coffin and crying, he almost fainted from crying.
Seeing him in such grief, Liu Yi was both moved and relieved. Although he didn’t know him, he thought he was a hero who respected his father.
Those who dare to enter the palace at this time to mourn their father are all warriors.
When Zhong Yao cried, he and Hu Yanping cried in front of Liu Yi. Taking advantage of people not paying attention, he slipped a note to Liu Yi, and hinted at Liu Yi through Hu Yanping’s resentment, showing that they could Help him escape.
It is impossible to escape. Zhong Yao’s move was to break into the Xiongnu, Liu Yi was captured, and so many Hanchens were captured at the same time, it is impossible for every one of them to be willing to submit to Zhao Hanzhang.
Zhong Yao’s task is to dig them out, foil their plots, and let the Zhao family army continue to suppress their pride and make them surrender.
In the end, if you are still unwilling to surrender, except for those who can be exchanged for hostages, kill those who should be killed.
Zhong Yao is fake, but there are always people who are real, and there are two types of real people.
One is the same as Zhong Yao, who wants to rescue Liu Yi, and then everyone goes to Jizhou to find Liu Cong, join the army, and revive the Huns;
One is thinking about mutiny, reforming from within Pingyang City, killing Zhao Hanzhang, regaining Pingyang City, and reaching the peak again.
Liu Yi thinks that the second idea is simply to die. With Zhao Hanzhang’s ability, can they succeed in raising troops?
I’m afraid they will be wiped out just at the beginning.
Liu Qin thought that Liu Yi was afraid of their Lei Zhenzi, and explained in a low voice: “My lord, I sent someone to inquire, and there are not many gods Zhao Hanzhang. When they attacked the city, they used the stones that they used later. I think that thing has already been used. over.”
Liu Qin felt that they had lost unjustly. If it weren’t for that Lei Zhenzi, they would not have lost, so now that Zhao Hanzhang doesn’t have that thing, they will definitely succeed in raising troops.
Seeing that Liu Yi remained silent, Liu Qin hurriedly persuaded: “Your Majesty, the Crown Prince has no idea of life or death or whereabouts. The foundation of our Xiongnu is in the hands of the Fourth Prince, but we all know that besides the Crown Prince, His Majesty’s favorite prince is you. Even I said privately that you are more suitable to be the khan of our Huns than the prince.”
“Shut up,” Liu Yi’s face darkened, and said, “Father has never said such a thing.”
Liu Qin knelt on the ground and said, “Your Majesty, our people have been oppressed by the Han people. Only when His Majesty was born did we have a chance to breathe, but it has only been four years since the founding of the country, and now the capital is occupied by Zhao Hanzhang. If you don’t resist, the Xiongnu clan will never have a bright future.”
When Liu Yi heard this, he suddenly felt a huge mountain on his shoulders. He said: “The general puts his hope on me, why not put it on the fourth brother. Now the foundation of the Xiongnu is in his hands.”
He said: “I believe that the prince’s elder brother will be able to turn bad luck into good luck. Just wait for them to join the army, and then they can reset the court to fight against Jin.”
Liu Yi is just simple, not stupid, he said: “Jin, now only Zhao Hanzhang’s line is still stable, but her emperor is in our hands, and most of Jin’s ministers are also in our hands. She is fierce now, but Jin Dangerous, they have lost the emperor, they will definitely fight for power, and that is our chance.”
He warned Liu Qin, “Our Han country has an advantage over them. The elder brother of the prince is still alive, and most of our Han officials are alive. As long as the prince ascends the throne, we will have a leader and unite to attack.”
“As for me, my life or death is not important, General Liu, don’t ask me to hear similar words in the future.”
Liu Qin’s complexion is not very good-looking. He has a very bad relationship with the prince. If the prince ascends the throne, he has the fault of losing the city. I’m afraid it will be hard to live.
Seeing Liu Yi’s indifferent appearance, Liu Qin secretly gritted his teeth, but unfortunately the fourth prince is not here, if he were, he would definitely accept his surrender.
Liu Yi did not cooperate, but this did not prevent Liu Qin from acting in his name;
Unlike him, Xuan Yuxiu wanted to rescue Liu Yi from Pingyang City, so he contacted a group of Han officials through the funeral, but he did not expect that their thoughts would change as soon as the funeral was over. It is better to stay than to leave.
Zhao Hanzhang and Liu Yi have a good relationship and are willing to treat them kindly, why not stay?
Anyway, Liu Yi didn’t want to go back to be the emperor. He was always a courtier, so where should he be a courtier?
But more people were persuaded by Liu Qin and decided to give it a go. Their foundation of the Huns is still there, and they can make a comeback. It’s just that the emperor died, and the new emperor replaced the old emperor, and the new ministers replaced the old ministers, but they were not in the crown prince at this time. If you are not around, then you can only compete for favor in front of the new emperor with merit.
Is there any greater achievement than regaining Pingyang City?
It would be even better if Liu Yi can be pushed to the throne, then they will have the merit of being a dragon. Moreover, Liu Yi has a gentle personality, and it is much safer to be his courtier than to be a prince’s courtier.
Therefore, Liu Qin directly spoke for Liu Yi, urging everyone to get active and unite quietly.
On the point of self-confidence, Gou Xi and Liu Qin have a common language. He operated earlier than Liu Qin. Revolt at the moment of hope and regain control of Yanzhou.
