Han Dao world

Chapter 832
Zhuge Liang had just finished explaining to Liu Biao, and then received the latest order.

Sun Rui, a lieutenant in the Northern Army, is approaching. The emperor respects the veteran and will go to Xiaopingjin to meet him in person and ask Liu Biao if he is interested in traveling with him.

If you are not interested, then go back to the post house and see you another day.

Zhuge Liang was a little surprised, but then he understood the reason.

The emperor was not happy with his statement just now.

As for how to explain to Liu Biao, that is his business.

Zhuge Liang thought for a while, and truthfully told Liu Biao the situation.

After hearing this, Liu Biao felt very complicated.

Son of Heaven, this is treated differently.

Shi Sunrui has not yet arrived, the emperor will go to meet him in person, and he will meet Xiaopingjin.

I have already arrived, and I stand outside the door, but the emperor just doesn't see him.

Coincidentally, he was also a senior marshal of the Northern Army, and he was regarded as Sun Rui's predecessor.

But even though he felt aggrieved, he couldn't put this emotion on his face.After all, Shi Sun Rui can be regarded as his old friend.The emperor respected him and went to meet him in person, so he had to attend.

If I really go back first, I don't know when I will see you in the future.

"The emperor respects the veteran, and expresses his deep gratitude. Biao and his scholar Sun Junrong have not seen each other for many years, and they are willing to go with the emperor to meet him. They happen to report Jingzhou affairs to the emperor on the way."

Zhuge Liang sized Liu Biao's eyes and reminded, "The Son of Heaven always travels by horse, not by chariot."

Liu Biao's mouth was bitter, but he couldn't help smiling. "Thanks for reminding me. But although I am old, I can still ride a horse."

Zhuge Liang didn't say anything more, and asked Liu Biao to wait outside, then turned around and went in to report back.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Biao asked Liu Qi to go back quickly, find him a suit of clothes suitable for riding a horse, and choose a docile mount, so as not to make a fool of himself halfway.

He can indeed ride a horse, but he is not good at riding and cannot control a strong horse.

After some preparations, Liu Xie left the camp.

Accompanied by two cavalry for protection.A female cavalry, directed by Ma Yunlu himself.A Habayashi ride, directed by Habayashi Zhonglang Zhang Xiu.

In addition, there are dozens of scattered cavalry, commanded by the central governor Guo Wu.

Their speed is not fast, but not slow, especially for Liu Biao and his son.

Even with the aid of stirrups, they couldn't adapt to this kind of continuous running for dozens of miles.The legs and buttocks rubbed against the saddle, and at first it was sore, then it hurt, and then I lost consciousness, and the whole lower body seemed to be gone.

In this case, let alone report the situation to the emperor, he can't do it even if he can speak.

But the others didn't feel anything at all. No matter men or women, they all looked relaxed, talking and laughing, as if they were out hunting.

Including the loose riders around the emperor, such as Zhuge Liang.

seeing is believing.Seeing Zhuge Liang and others galloping on horseback, even if Liu Biao had an opinion that the emperor was deliberately making things difficult for Liu Qi and others, he could only hide it in his heart and dare not reveal it.

If you want to blame, you can only blame Liu Qi for being worthless and not being able to make yourself proud.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong are fine, why not Liu Qi?

Shi Sunrui stood at the bow of the boat, looked at the sky, and hesitated.

The sun is already in the west, and it is too late to arrive at Pingliang, so why not stay here for one night, and then go to Pingliang to see you in a leisurely way tomorrow.

Before seeing the driver, he also happened to sort out his thoughts and think about what to say after meeting the driver tomorrow.

"Ah Weng." Shi Sun Meng rushed over suddenly, and stretched out his hand to guide the bank.

Shi Sunrui squinted his eyes, took a look, and couldn't help being surprised.

There was faint smoke and dust rising from the south bank, thin and straight, which is the characteristic of galloping cavalry, and there were quite a few of them, at least four or five hundred.

What's going on here?

Shi Sunrui ordered his subordinates to be on guard while watching attentively.

Strictly speaking, he wasn't worried, it was just a habitual reaction.The emperor was stationed in Luoyang, and it was impossible for Han Sui, the general of Fujun, to be on guard so that four or five hundred cavalry broke into the defense area, posing a threat to the emperor.

This may be because Han Sui's subordinates discovered them and came to check the situation.

The cavalry stopped on the high slope of the bank, and the smoke and dust were gradually blown away by the northwest wind, revealing a large flag.

At this time, the boat also passed the middle of the river and was about to dock.Shi Sun Rui couldn't see clearly, but Shi Sun Meng saw the banner clearly, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Ah Weng, it is the battle flag of the Son of Heaven."

"What?" Shi Sun Rui was taken aback, then turned to look at Shi Sun Meng, and shouted: "Look carefully, this is not a joke."

Shi Sun Meng was stunned by Shi Sun Rui, her face flushed, but she dared not speak.

Ju Shou beside him added a sentence. "Shisun Gong, it is indeed the Son of Heaven Zhanqi, and...the young man under the Zhanqi is very handsome, and there is a young woman next to him, I am afraid it is..."

When Sun Rui heard this, he suddenly turned his head.

According to Jushou, it is likely that the emperor himself came, and the young woman beside him should be the nobleman Ma Yunlu.

Shi Sunrui didn't dare to neglect, and immediately ordered the soldiers to get ready, and rearranged his clothes himself.He was a little flustered, even more nervous than when he first entered the official career and met the Shangguan for the first time.

Along the way, he thought a lot, but he never thought that the emperor would come to welcome him.

As soon as the boat touched the shore, before it stopped, Shi Sunrui got off the boat in one stride, and rushed towards the emperor with great strides.

Liu Xie also got off his horse, took two steps forward, and looked at Shi Sun Rui with a smile.

The two got closer and closer, Shi Sunrui saw the figure of the emperor clearly, saw the face of the emperor clearly, saw the smile on the face of the emperor clearly, tears welled up involuntarily, and dripped into the dust under his feet.

"His Majesty--"

Shi Sun Rui staggered, prostrating himself in the dust.

"Master Sun Rui, please get up quickly." Liu Xie took a step forward, helped Shi Sun Rui up with both hands, looked at it carefully, and said with emotion: "Master Sun Rui, you have lost weight."

Shi Sunrui burst into tears, but he was very happy. "Your Majesty, I'm getting old, it's okay to be thinner. I haven't seen you for a few years, but Your Majesty has already...but already..."

Liu Xie laughed loudly, bent over and brushed off the dust on Shi Sun Rui's clothes, feeling happy in his heart.

He knew that Shi Sun Rui would be excited, but he didn't expect Shi Sun Rui to be so excited.

It can be seen from this that in the hearts of these veteran officials, their own weight is still very heavy.

"Mr. Shisun, I've come to see an old friend."

Liu Xie stretched out his hand and pointed, Liu Biao hurriedly endured the tingling pain in his legs and rushed over.He just saw it clearly from the sidelines, and felt very uncomfortable.The Son of Heaven not only came to greet Shi Sun Rui in person, but also paid such respect to Shi Sun Rui, which was beyond the proper etiquette of a monarch and his ministers, even if it was a younger generation who came to greet the elders.

Seeing this scene, who would dare to say that the emperor squeezed out the veterans?

Even if the Son of Heaven deliberately did it for himself, it would not be easy.

What's more, looking at the emperor's every move is not like doing it for others, but from the heart.

Is there such a big gap between me and Shi Sunrui?
"Jun Rong, you and I haven't seen each other for ten years, do you still remember me?" Liu Biao deliberately laughed loudly.

Shi Sun Rui turned his head and stared at Liu Biao, then took out his handkerchief, wiped his eyes, and then recognized Liu Biao, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Brother Jing Sheng, it's you. Didn't you say that you were sick and couldn't go to Luoyang for the parade, you blushing..."

Embarrassed, Liu Biao said quickly, "I was ill at first, but the Emperor Meng insisted on calling me to Luoyang to recuperate. It's strange to say that after receiving the imperial edict, I was cured without treatment."

Sun Rui smiled. "The world has been in chaos these years, and Jingzhou is the most stable. You must have brought a lot of elites and money to help out?"
