"this is not bad!"

Ayimei pulled Liu Han and pointed at the kebabs.

"purchase!"

"And that tofu."

"purchase!"

"Cross carp juice, with this name, it might be delicious."

"purchase!"

"This little thing is fine too." She pointed to a small wooden carriage.

"purchase."

Liu Han waved his hand. He didn't give money anyway. If his subordinates gave him money, he didn't need to take it. The subordinates could just take it.

People set up stalls on the street, which were set up with wooden boards. Some of them had a small cart made of wood. There were things in front of them, and some people kept shouting.

"Come and take a look. One pair of peach charms can drive away ghosts and evil spirits. It's very effective."

"Take a look at all the good rouge. Put it on."

"Hu cakes, authentic Hu cakes, just out of the pan."

……

"The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night. It also blows down the stars like rain.

BMW engraved cars on the road. The phoenix flute sounded, the jade pot turned light, and the fish and dragon danced overnight.

Moth snow willow golden strands. The laughter is full of fragrance. People look for him thousands of Baidu.

Suddenly looking back, that person was there, in a dimly lit place. "

Looking at the excited Ayimei, Liu Han smiled. At her repeated request, after more than 100 years, they once again took to the streets of the Han capital around New Year's Eve.

She had a sweet voice, a sweet smile, and a graceful appearance. Wherever she passed, waves of fragrant wind drifted by and under the light of the lights, she just seemed to blend in with the light.

"The smoke and fire in the world is the most soothing to mortal hearts!"

They kept shopping, and the guards were holding everything they bought. Ayimei didn't seem tired.

"Is it fun? Do you want to go back?"

In fact, she never thought shopping was fun, only shopping with him was fun. It didn't matter what she bought, the important thing was to buy with him and watch him buy for her. It didn't matter where she went, the important thing was that he was here.

Ayimei stepped forward and held her hand, "Okay, go back and buy a pair of peach wood charms. I hope you can ward off evil spirits."

Liu Han didn't believe it, but he was not stubborn. He nodded and smiled, "Okay."

Whenever New Year's Eve comes, people will place peach wood charms engraved with the images of Shen Tu and Yu Lei on the door, and then hang reed ropes for the two gods to bind ghosts and feed tigers. The tradition of peach wood to restrain ghosts is also It became a common belief among people during the Han and Wei dynasties.

After buying the peach charms, Ayimei suddenly asked sadly, "Is it okay to go shopping every New Year's Eve from now on?"

Liu Han was stunned for a moment, stepped forward and gently stroked the hair on her forehead, smiled slightly, "Okay!"

In the eyes of outsiders, they are not a good match at all. Ayimei has aged specially, with slight wrinkles on her face, but Liu Han looks 17 years old. But, so what, can anyone else care?

Regarding Ayimei's betrayal, Liu Han thought about never forgiving him, but he couldn't deceive his own heart. In order to live longer, is it wrong to stay with the person he likes more?

Maybe, there is.

Maybe, not.

Maybe it was a mistake in the beginning.

No one knows, and no one can judge.

The Spring Festival of the 18th year of Jianwu in the Western Han Dynasty In the distant era, the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival was strong.

The sun shines on the bustling city of Luoyang, and the streets and lanes are filled with festive joy and laughter.

The Spring Festival had many names during the Han and Wei dynasties, such as Zhengdan, Zhengri, Sanchao, etc. As a farming society in China, people pay attention to seasonal solar terms to facilitate agricultural production.

As early as the pre-Qin period, people began to pay attention to the beginning of the year. The issuance of the Taichu Order during the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty finally established the date of the Spring Festival. Since then, the Spring Festival has been passed down as an important festival in our country to this day.

At this time, the palace was even more lively, with palace lanterns hung high and red silk fluttering, creating a joyful scene. Emperor Jianwu Liu Xiu was sitting in the magnificent hall, looking at his highness's ministers and family members with a smile.

His eyes showed deep longing and a touch of sadness, because this was the eighteenth Spring Festival since he ascended the throne. Old friends were withering away one after another, like leaves falling in the wind. Maybe he would be gone too.

He finally understood that time was the most powerful force in the world. He also began to fear in the face of death. He seemed to understand that Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han pursued immortality.

They almost have the greatest authority in the world, but they can still only watch themselves grow a little older.

In the center of the hall, dancers dressed in gorgeous clothes danced gracefully. Their dance is light and graceful, as if the spring breeze blows across the lake, causing ripples.

The palace musicians played the guzheng and pipa, and the beautiful notes intertwined together, like the sound of nature, which was intoxicating.

Liu Xiu's sight seemed to be able to pass through the main hall and reach the streets of Luoyang, where a grand celebration was being held, and the people gathered together to enjoy various performances. Some are guessing lantern riddles, some are juggling, and some are tasting delicious food.

The laughter of the children one after another added a bit of childlike innocence to this festive day.

However, behind this joy, Liu Xiu felt an invisible pressure. He knew that as the king, he shouldered the important responsibilities of the country.

He hopes that the people can live a happy and stable life. To this end, he must work hard and work hard.

"Congratulations to your majesty, congratulations to the great man!"

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

All the ministers congratulated Liu Xiu and raised their glasses to celebrate. Liu Xiu said, "My dear friends, thank you for your hard work. Please drink this cup to the full. I hope the country will have good weather and the country will be peaceful and the people will be safe!"

After a banquet, the mood was very good. After everything was over, Liu Xiu summoned Liu Han while he was drunk and happy.

"How's it going? Is there a girl you like?"

Just when Liu Han was about to speak, Liu Xiu blocked his mouth, "Don't tell me about Qingfeng Hou. I tell you, it's impossible to stop thinking about him early."

Liu Han was not afraid at all and smiled, "Hey, it seems that Father already knows?"

"If the queen hadn't told me, how long would you have kept it a secret from me?"

"My father was wronged, and I never hid it from anyone."

"So, you still make sense?"

"One is unmarried and the other is not married. How come it doesn't make sense?"

"It's up to the parents to order the matchmaker."

"Didn't my father say that his son can like anyone? As long as he is not a woman from a good family or a woman from a common people, okay?"

Liu Xiu was so angry that her liver ached, and he could only say helplessly: "She is too old to be your mother."

"If you have ambition, you will no longer grow old; if you have no ambition, you will live a hundred years in vain."

"Is this a question of whether you have ambition or not?" Liu Xiu held his head. He felt a headache. "Why don't you listen to what the outside world says about you?"

"Do you care what others say? You are the prince of the Han Dynasty, and you regard the suspicious eyes of others as if you are a ghost fire. Go boldly on your way at night."

"..."

Liu Xiujian couldn't defeat him, so he could only act helpless, "I am still the emperor of the Han Dynasty. If I say no, I can't."

"A few days ago, I was still talking about it. I said it with confidence, but I really meant it. If I don't think about it, it's fine!" "Get out! Get out of here."

"Snapped!"

Liu Xiu was so angry that she threw the wine glass at Liu Han, and he quickly avoided it.

"okay!"

"You are a traitor, you are a traitor."

Liu Xiu ran to Yuntai Palace angrily to complain to Yin Lihua.

"What's wrong? You were happy when you were in the main hall, why are you angry now?"

"You're not that treacherous son of Qiang'er."

"But because of him and Qingfenghou?"

Liu Xiu glanced at her and she said with a smile, "They just went shopping a few days ago on New Year's Eve."

"The traitor, the traitor, he is determined."

"He is also a lover, so what should you do, Your Majesty? Are you willing to beat him and scold him?"

"..."

Liu Xiu had no choice but to let him go. He couldn't help his son grow up.

In this year, the eighteenth year of Jianwu, AD 42, Shi Xin, the governor of Shu County, rebelled in Chengdu, calling himself Da Sima and attacking the prefect Zhang Mu.

Zhang Mu fled to Guangdu, and Shi Xin moved to the prefectures and counties. Yang Wei of Danqu, Qu Yue Ren, and Xu Rong each raised troops to respond to Shi Xin. Because Shi Xin had been Cen Peng's guard and was proficient in military affairs, Liu Xiu sent Wu Han to lead Liu Shang and Taizhong doctor Zang Gong with more than 10,000 people to attack.

Wu Han entered Wudu and recruited soldiers from Guanghan, Ba, and Shu counties to besiege Chengdu. Later, Chengdu was defeated and Shi Xin was killed. Wu Han took a raft along the river to Bajun. Yang Wei, Xu Rong and others dispersed in fear. Wu Han killed more than 200 of his generals and moved his party and hundreds of families to Nanjun and Changsha.

Time passed, and in AD 44, the th year of Jianwu, Wu Han, who had spent his life as a soldier, was critically ill. Liu Xiu came to visit in person and asked about Wu Han's funeral.

Wu Han said nothing else, but asked Liu Xiu not to be too merciful and not to pardon criminals easily.

After Wu Han's death, Liu Xiu gave him the posthumous title Zhonghou, and sent five schools of the Northern Army, military chariots, and soldiers to his funeral, imitating the funeral ceremony of General Huo Guang.

This kind of courtesy is rare among Yuntai generals, which shows that Wu Han's status in Liu Xiu's mind is extraordinary.

Wu Han has obvious advantages and disadvantages.

Although he was unparalleled in bravery and had outstanding military exploits, he was also quite violent and impulsive. He often caused trouble for Liu Xiu, such as the robbery of Nanyang, which led to Deng Feng's rebellion.

He often disobeyed orders and suffered defeat. When attacking Xishu, he underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, almost getting himself involved.

Logically speaking, Wu Han should not be ranked second in the "Yuntai 28 Generals". In fact, the military level and military achievements of the fourth Geng Yan, the sixth Cen Peng, and the seventh Feng Yi are not as good as his. Poor, I haven't made so many mistakes as him.

However, he played an important role in Liu Xiu's rise and peace in the world.

At that time, Liu Xiu's ability to gain a foothold in Hebei actually depended on two key points. One was that King Zhending Liu Yang reached a political marriage with him and betrothed his niece Guo Shengtong to him, thus obtaining King Zhending's 100,000 troops. support;

One is Wu Han and Geng Yan leading the Youzhou cavalry to defect. These are all northern cavalry, and their combat effectiveness is extremely powerful.

Starting from the end of the Qin Dynasty, chariots began to be eliminated, and cavalry became the well-deserved mainstream of the battlefield.

Relying on the impact and rapid maneuverability of horses on the battlefield to launch mobile pursuit and interception of the enemy is the greatest advantage of cavalry over infantry.

From ancient times to the 19th century, cavalry was the undisputed king of the battlefield and dominated the direction of the battlefield.

But the emergence of the Maxim heavy machine gun made the nomadic peoples who used to be fierce and aggressive suddenly become singing, dancing and peace-loving.

Since ancient times, political power has come from the barrel of a gun. In troubled times, fighting for hegemony in the world is absolutely impossible without a team capable of conquering and fighting.

Therefore, Wu Han can be regarded as Liu Xiu's military veteran and the original hero who helped Liu Xiu achieve military power accumulation. He brought a huge investment.

He helped Liu Xiu dig out the first pot of gold in his life when Liu Xiu needed it most and in the way Liu Xiu needed it most. This kind of contribution is of great importance in any era.

In addition to being the chief contributor of Liu Xiu's group, Wu Han was also the key attacker in Liu Xiu's army. He and Geng Yan led the Youzhou cavalry to attack most of the tough battles.

He first made great contributions to Liu Xiu's campaign to conquer Hebei.

After pacifying Hebei, he worked with the generals to persuade them to advance. After Liu Xiu came to the throne, he wanted to appoint Sun Xian as Grand Sima, but the officials opposed it.

Liu Xiu had no choice but to let the officials recommend him, and they all recommended Wu Han and Jing Dan. This shows that Wu Han's influence in everyone's hearts is very great.

In the end, Liu Xiu believed that Wu Han had the credit for "killing the Miao Youzhou and Xie Shangshu", and made Wu Han the Grand Sima, commanding the entire army, and also named Wuyang Marquis.

After that, Wu Han led his army to fight in Guanzhong, defeated Qin Feng, defeated Bronze Horse, killed Liu Yong, beheaded Dong Xian, and made great contributions to the pacification of the counties in Guanzhong.

After Guandong was pacified, Wei Xiao rebelled again, and Wu Han followed Liu Xiu to conquer Wei Xiao in the west. This battle was a rare defeat for Wu Han. Because of the shortage of food, the soldiers fled, and Wu Han was defeated because of the lack of food supplies.

Next, Wu Han led the battle to level Shu. This was the most controversial battle between Wu and Han. In the fierce battle with Gongsun Shu, Wu Han had the last laugh.

However, when Gongsun Shu was dead and the enemy surrendered to Kaicheng, Wu Han led his troops into the city and launched troops to plunder. While Gongsun Shu's family was destroyed, the palace was burned down and the people were massacred, which ultimately made Liu Xiu furious.

After that, Wu Han's battlefield career in his later years was mainly spent fighting the Xiongnu and suppressing the rebellion in Shu.

Almost every important battle of Liu Xiu is inseparable from him.

In addition to these, Wu Han also helped Liu Xiu do some things that were inconvenient for him to do. No one can always be innocent, but someone can be evil for him.

For example, Liu Xiu asked Wu Han and Geng Yan to help him clear out the reform officials in the Hebei camp.

Although Liu Xiu had long wanted to break away from the reform regime when he got the chance because his brother was killed first. But when running Hebei, his official identity was still the Grand Sima of the reform regime.

It would be somewhat inappropriate for him to personally attack reform officials such as Miao Zeng and Xie Gong. Wu Han and Geng Yan were different. It was very suitable that they took refuge in Liu Xiu.

As soon as Wu Han died, more than half of Liu Xiu's twenty-eight generals in Yuntai died, and there were only a few left who could fight.

At this time, Guo Kuang of the Guo family in Hebei Province had been back to recuperate for three years. In fact, he had already recovered.

"Kang'er, how could you do this? What should you do with your sister? What should you do with the prince? That will destroy the nine tribes."

At this time, Master Guo's face was pale. He never expected that Kuang would be so bold.

"Sister? If you don't care for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. There is also a prince, so it may not be him."

Guo Kuang threw down his sleeves and left, "Kang'er, Kuang'er!"

Master Guo was left paralyzed on the ground, "What a crime, what a crime!"

In the 20th year of Jianwu, less than a month after Wu Han's death, Mian Manhou and Guo Kuang, the Marquis of Zhending County and Gao County, rebelled and issued a proclamation.

"Since the establishment of Qi in Anhui, people were first born, and the emperors of trees were considered to be ministers. After Yi Nong, Xuan, and Xiang, the kings of Yao, Shun, and Yu were not only afraid of Shangxuan, but also loved to educate the head of Guizhou and worked hard all day long. , Be cautious, ride the rope of decay while sharing the same danger, but be afraid of walking on the ice of spring.

Therefore, if a person accepts a god's place, he feels ashamed; if a man is guilty, he gets off the car and weeps. Humility and virtue are devoted to rebuke, and sorrow and hard work are devoted to sin.

Under the sky, on the shore of the river, where the flat wood is separated from the quicksand, and the vast sea is closed to the Dan hole, everyone will beat the soil with his belly, dig wells and plow the fields, bring peace to the people, and drive away the benevolence and longevity.

Therefore, if you love them like your parents and respect them like gods, you can enjoy your country for many years and prolong your life. There is no cruelty that comes upon a person, and there is no one who can conquer the heavenly throne..."

In the letter, Liu Xiu and Liu Han were scolded, saying that Liu Han was heartless and unjust, and took the lead in deposing his mother and was not a human son.

Liu Xiu was ungrateful. If it hadn't been for the support of Zhen Ding Wang Liu Yang, how could Liu Xiu have started his career? Not only did he kill Liu Yang with despicable means, but now he also killed the donkey and abandoned his wife who was a loser...
