Han Shizu

Chapter 340 Summer Hunting Auspiciousness and Tribute
In the summer and April of the second year of Qianyou, he was ugly, and Liu Chengyou returned from hunting in Zifengqiu.This is the first time Liu Chengyou has led the crowd to hunt since he ascended the throne. The core purpose is to inspect the army and show off his majesty.The two cavalry armies of Long Jie and Iron Cavalry each dispatched an army to accompany the hunt, totaling more than [-] cavalry, accompanied by more than [-] people from civil and military ministers from Feng Dao and Guo Wei, and returned for a day and overnight.

The horse troops accompanying them were all elites of the Imperial Guards of the Han Dynasty. Apart from participating in hunting, they also conducted confrontation drills of horse warfare tactics, and the emperor personally supervised them.Throughout the hunting process, a serious order was maintained, and officers at all levels were rewarded according to the hunting results.

There is a small episode, encountering a deer in the wild forest, besieged and chased it away, the soldiers shot it, but they missed it, and when the emperor arrived, he drew his bow and shot it, and the army cheered for the one that hit the arrow.Regardless of the facts, this is the version that has been spread, and the effect of the propaganda has been achieved, and no one will go into the details of what is going on. Like Liu Chengyou himself, he regards it as true.

In addition, there is the concubine Xian who is accompanying her, wearing a military uniform and silver armor, driving around, with a vigorous figure and skillful bow and horse, she has gained a lot of fame.The world knows that not only the emperor is "valiant and strong", but also there are women in the harem who don't give in to men.

"You must be tired from running back and forth, go back to the palace and rest!" From the north palace gate back to the inner court, Liu Chengyou was still wearing armor, and as he took a step, he gave instructions to Zhe Xiaoniang.

Zhe Xiaoniang was full of heroism, and there was a sense of refreshment between her jade face. Once she went hunting, the depression that had accumulated in her heart since entering the palace was relieved a lot.In fact, such a rouge horse is restrained in the deep palace and wears away its personality, but it feels like burning a piano and boiling a crane.

Liu Chengyou could also feel the little melancholy behind Zhe Xiaoniang's forced smile, and ordered him to follow the hunt, just to let her release the emotions in her heart.But, that's all there is to it, a political marriage is a political marriage after all, if Zhe Xiaoniang doesn't try to get used to the life in the forbidden palace and enter the role of the emperor's woman, then the result will not be too good, even though Liu Chengyou is very fond of this lady right now .

Of course, in fact, Zhe Xiaoniang is not as described in the "book", suffering from the constraints of the palace gate, pursuing freedom and singing. On the contrary, although the time is short, Zhe Xiaoniang is already working hard to adapt.

Although Zhe Xiaoniang is still in good spirits, in good spirits, and still has a feeling of unfinished business, but facing Liu Chengyou's orders, she tactfully obeyed them and returned them.

Liu Chengyou returned to the camp on Qingqi and entered the palace on foot. Seeing him stepping forward, Zhang Dejun showed his hospitality cleverly: "Officials, let's ride on the imperial chariot!"

"I'm tired of walking around, prepare the chariot!" Liu Chengyou directly agreed.

After hearing that the Son of Heaven came back from hunting, Empress Fu and Concubine Gao Gui sent people to greet him one after another. Liu Chengyou responded with warm words, wishing to raise the baby with peace of mind.Apparently, the recent doting on Concubine Xian alone has caused both the Empress and Concubine to think about it.

"Choose two high-quality Suzhou embroidery from your own money, and give it to the queen and noble concubine!" Liu Chengyou ordered when he was disarmed and changed clothes under the service of the servant.

"Yes!"

"Your Majesty, Mr. Su and Fan seek to see each other!" Almost at the time when Liu Chengyou was returning to the palace, Sheren reported the news that Su Yugui and Fan Zhi wanted to see each other.

Speaking of it, there are seven fellow ministers in the court, Yang, Wang, Su, Feng, Li, Fan, and Zhao, who share the power.Yang Bin and Wang Zhang are the most important. Apart from Zhao Ying, who is basically filling in, Su Yugui, who has recently been a scholar of Jixian Palace and a judge of the Ministry of Rites, is the most low-key.

As the founding father and former minister of Hedong, Su Yugui obviously consciously reduced his presence in the court.The root cause is that on the one hand, his own talents and morals are limited. With Liu Chengyou's promotion of old ministers, Su Yugui really has nothing outstanding in academics and politics;

On the other hand, and more importantly, he has the heart to protect himself. You must know that when he was in the imperial court, he and Su Fengji could be called the "Second Su".It's just that he restrained himself after eating and eating fat, and Su Fengji was in front of him to attract firepower.

However, Su Fengji's fate still made Su Yugui vigilant.

How miserable!

After seeing the ceremony, a seat was offered and tea was offered, and Liu Chengyou asked directly: "What's the matter?"

Su Yugui's attitude was extremely submissive, he stood up with a low waist, and with a smile on his face, he reported: "Your Majesty, Yingzhou reported that a pair of purple rabbits and white rabbits were found in the territory, and they were dedicated to the court. I think that the current imperial edict will reward you."

Su Yugui smiled, but Liu Chengyou didn't show much joy when he heard it, his brows were slightly tightened, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Is Meng Xingchao the training envoy of the Yingzhou regiment?"

Did not find the expectant expression on Liu Chengyou's face, Su Yugui lowered her voice and said, "Exactly!"

Meng Xingchao, the training envoy of the Yingzhou regiment, was appointed by Liu Zhiyuan at the beginning of the country.

Liu Chengyou really didn't have much interest in auspicious omens and so on. He only felt that such people were in charge of a state's military administration and could not perform their duties.However, it is rare to be able to take the initiative to contribute and flatter the emperor and the court.

With mixed emotions, Liu Chengyou asked Fan Zhi: "Fan Qing, what do you think about being an award?"

After paying homage to the Prime Minister, Fan Zhi became more calm and assisted Mingjun to show his talents and learn, and then realize his ambition.In short, Fan Xianggong has been proud of his spring breeze recently.

Seeming to understand Liu Chengyou's psychology, Fan Zhi cupped his hands and said: "Since it is a sign of auspiciousness given by the heavens, the imperial court should express something to comfort the hearts of the ministers and appease the people's will!"

"Then let the center issue an edict to reward it!" Liu Chengyou ordered lightly.

Then he added in a very low voice: "There are really rabbits in the world, the color is purple?"

Without lingering on this issue, he turned to Fan Zhi: "What is Fan Qing doing?"

Fan Zhi's face was calm, and he was much less flattering than Su Yugui, and he said sincerely: "Your Majesty, Jingnan Jiedu Envoy Gao Baorong sent another person to go north to Tokyo to pay tribute!"

With that said, Fan Zhi presented a gift list.

"It's only been half a year since Gao Baorong inherited his father's position. This is already the second time to pay tribute!" Liu Chengyou took the gift list and glanced at it. Although he was not as proud as Nantang, his mood was obviously better.

"Exactly!" Fan Zhi replied.

In the winter of last year, Gao Congjiao, Wang of Nanping, died of illness and was succeeded by his son Gao Baorong.At the beginning of the inheritance, he took the initiative to report on the table.In fact, since the middle of last year, Gao Conghui has voluntarily subdued, paying tribute, and proclaiming himself a minister, intending to repair the broken relationship between the two parties, obviously paving the way for future generations.

As far as the matter is concerned, although Gao Conghui has the elegant title of "Gao Laizi", in terms of his own talent, he is already above average. It is not easy to deal with various countries in the small land of Jingnan.

"Your Majesty, it is reported that Gao Baorong, the envoy of Jingnan Festival, is pedantic and weak. , The criminal is in my court. Your Majesty may return the gift to make him feel at ease!" Fan Zhi suggested to Liu Chengyou.

Liu Chengyou thought about it for a while, with a relaxed expression, and asked, "The envoy is still in the concierge?"

"Yes!"

"Order to go on, good hospitality, I will personally meet tomorrow!"

"In addition, to draw up an imperial edict, add Jingnan Jiedu envoy Gao Congjiao to inspect the school's grand master and servant!" For Liu Chengyou, the two false titles don't cost money at all.

For the Han court, a cowardly separatist lord is of course good news, and it is also convenient for the court to operate.

The strategy is facing south, and Liu Chengyou's eyes are not only on the southeast corner!
