Dahan first prince

Chapter 50 Seven days later, the army sets off!

"Eh?"

"Just now outside the palace, did your family come with the Prime Minister?"

Changle Palace, Changxin Palace.

In the corner near the gate of the palace, the two courtiers started whispering while the emperor Liu Bang had not yet entered the palace.

Hearing this question from the colleague beside him, the official beside him nodded slightly.

"Maybe we met on the road, so let's come together."

Indifferently giving his opinion, the official sighed secretly.

"The matter of His Majesty's easy storage before, it was dangerous to shake the government and the public."

"Or maybe it was the empress who called the prime minister into the palace, expressed her gratitude, and gave other orders?"

As he spoke, the official shook his head again, straightened up, and looked up the imperial steps.

——The visitor who sang this has already stood on the edge of the imperial couch.

"Your Majesty is here~"

"All officials welcome~~~"

In the hall, there was a long-drawn-out elegant language singing, and the courtiers and officials in the hall came to the center of the hall in response, and bowed their hands in the direction of the imperial couch.

"Minister, welcome Your Majesty~"

At this moment when all the officials bowed to salute, the emperor Liu Bang walked out from the side of the imperial steps, came to the imperial couch, and bowed his hands to the officials in the center of the hall, but did not bend his back at all.

"Thanks, Your Majesty~"

"Gentleman's gift~~~"

The visitor sang again, and all the officials in the hall straightened up.

After the emperor Liu Bang sat on the imperial couch and waved his hands with a gentle face, all the officials returned to the two sides of the hall and knelt down facing each other in their respective positions.

As the crown prince, Liu Ying didn't have to sit in the ranks of courtiers in the hall like the officials, but sat on the left front of the imperial couch, slightly lower than the imperial couch, sitting west and kneeling down to the east.

Should I say it or not, Liu Ying is quite familiar with this feeling.

——In later generations, when Liu Ying was still in school, the seat arranged by the teacher for Liu Ying was similar to the "Prickly Head Seat" at this time.

The whole class is facing the podium, only Liu Ying is on one side of the podium, facing the blackboard.

The situation at this time is similar, that is, the "students" in the hall are also facing the "general's platform" where Liu Bang is, just like Liu Ying.

But at this time, Liu Ying's attention was obviously not on her seat.

"Ok?"

"This is, are you in a good mood?"

I saw Liu Bang sitting on the imperial couch, although the brows still showed resoluteness, but whether it was his eyes or his complexion, they gave people a kind of spring breeze for no reason...

illusion!

"Your Majesty, this is..."

Not only Liu Ying was puzzled by Liu Bang's "weird look", but even the courtiers and officials under the imperial ranks were inexplicably surprised.

"The last time Your Majesty showed such a gentle face was probably five years ago, when the country was established?"

A low voice of doubt came from behind, causing Fan Kui to shake his head secretly.

"At the enthronement ceremony at that time, Your Majesty showed the majesty of the emperor, why did you ever show gentleness to the courtiers?"

"I... I think that the last time should be when the Marquis of Huaiyin returned to Sanqin."

Seeing the low voice of conversation in the hall, Liu Bang didn't pay much attention to it, but directly looked at the teacher to worship.

"Prime Minister, Shaofu, and the food and grass for the army to go out, have they all been prepared properly?"

Hearing Liu Bang calling him, Yang Chengyan hurriedly got up from his seat. Seeing that Xiao He was struggling to get up, he stepped forward to help him.

Being supported by Yangcheng Yanxu to the center of the hall, Xiao He bowed slightly.

"Your Majesty, it is almost ready."

"The autumn harvest is not over yet, and there is not much food left in the national treasury. In order to raise the food and grass for the army to go out, I have to temporarily withhold half of the salaries of the officials, so as to have enough food for the army to go out.

Saying that, Xiao He turned sideways with an apologetic face, and bowed his hands to the courtiers and officials on the left and right sides.

"Fortunately, the princes and ministers Cao have great righteousness in their hearts, but they have no complaints. There are more than a dozen meritorious princes who borrowed the grain stored in the feudal state, so that the envoys were able to raise 20 million shi of rice grain."

"Here is the truth, thank you all the ministers, Cao, and hundreds of officials, Hou Dayi!"

After saying that, Xiao He bowed deeply to the courtiers on the left and right sides respectively.

Seeing this, the officials on both sides quickly stood up and bowed their hands to Xiao He in return.

"The prime minister's words are serious, this is the duty of all ministers..."

Seeing the touching scene of "United will make city" being staged in the hall, Liu Ying on the left side of the imperial couch couldn't help but sigh a little.

"Tsk tsk tsk."

"This official quality."

It can't be blamed that Liu Ying is rare and strange. In fact, in history, there have been too many dynasties that ruined the country's destiny because of the inability to unify the court.

Qin Hui and Yue Fei's grievances and grievances need not be repeated. At the end of Zhu Ming Dynasty, the court became a stage for Donglin Party's offline PK.

Although Liu Ying knew that for the hundred or so people in the hall, the three-month salary was halved, and it was only a few hundred stones of corn, which was nothing at all.

At least compared to these meritorious lords and nobles, the annual grain output of each feudal country is tens of thousands of shi, not to mention that the three-month salary is temporarily halved, even if a few years of salary is fined, it will not hurt at all.

But this did not prevent Liu Ying from being in awe of the founding fathers in the hall.

"Okay~"

"it is good!"

Obviously, Liu Bang, the son of heaven on the imperial steps, was also very satisfied with the mental outlook shown by the officials.

"The courtiers are united as one, and they will be sure to be foolproof in this expedition!"

Seeing Liu Bangqi's majestic praise, all the officials in the hall also bowed to the imperial steps.

"It all depends on His Majesty's great blessing, and the ministers are just doing their part to imitate His Majesty..."

Hearing this, Liu Bangchang laughed for a while, and finally slapped his thigh suddenly, and stood up.

"Since that's the case, the matter of going out to counter the rebellion can be done quickly!"

As he spoke, Liu Bang put his hands behind his back and walked around to the side of the imperial case close to the officials.

"Decree!"

"Written: Qu Zhou Hou Li Shang moved to the right prime minister, Jiang Hou Zhou Bo was the Taiwei, Xinwu Hou Jin She was the general of the chariot and cavalry, and each led the Second Division of the Northern Army as a school lieutenant!"

"In addition, Zhao Yao, the imperial historian, Fan Kui, Marquis of Wuyang, Guanying, Marquis of Yingyin, Chen Ping, Marquis of Quni, Guo Meng, Marquis of Dongwu, etc., are all accompanying them to the expedition!"

Re-emphasizing the list of generals that had been determined long ago, Liu Bang looked at Xiao He in the center of the hall.

"After the dispersal of the dynasty, please invite the prime minister to spread the decree widely, and call Guan Zhong's 24 and 35 young and strong to fill the army!"

As he said that, Liu Bang turned sideways and signaled Lang Guan beside him to hand over an imperial edict sealed in a wooden box to Xiao He in the center of the hall.

After receiving the edict, Xiao He hurriedly checked it carefully, and immediately bowed to Liu Bang.

"Sir, take the lead!"

After the arrangements for the expedition were roughly completed, Liu Bang looked at the officials in the palace with a determined face.

"Let's go to the court, all the generals who go out to fight should prepare armor and supplies quickly, and the generals of the family will prepare for battle!"

"Five days later, I will be west of Bashui, and I will see the military appearance of the generals of our Han family!"

"Seven days later, I will personally march as a royal driver, and lead an army of [-] to go out of Hangu to the east, and Chen Xi will be the representative of the court!!!"

Hearing this, all the officials in the palace bowed their hands to Liu Bang, who was above him, without any hesitation.

"Your Majesty, please follow His Majesty's edict!"
