The last three kingdoms

Chapter 1132
The eunuch Jiang Xian appeared at the gate of the palace, respectfully said: "Your Majesty, the carriage is ready, do you want to leave the palace now?"

The imperial servant is one of the nine ministers, responsible for managing the emperor's chariots and horses, as well as the world's animal husbandry.Although the imperial servant is an official position similar to that of Bi Mawen, when the emperor travels, the imperial servant is in charge of driving and personally drives the emperor's car. The people who can get close to the emperor are not ordinary people, so the imperial servant is in charge of driving. Although it seems that among the nine ministers, they do not have a proper job, but they are the emperor's close servants. They have a prominent status and are often promoted to Sangong. Those who are not famous are not allowed to take up this position. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were often royal officials, Sikong Those who were transferred to be a servant can see that the reputation of a servant is profound.

Jiang Xian is the son of Jiang Wan, and he has served as a servant for more than ten years. As Liu Chan's close minister, he has always been highly regarded. This time when the capital was moved to Luoyang, he was the one who drove Liu Chan himself along the way. This time he went out of the city Participating in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, Liu Chan drove in a car, which was naturally Jiang Xian's job.

Liu Chan nodded, Jiang Xian's driving skills Liu Chan is trustworthy, moving the capital from Yizhou to Luoyang, the road is full of mountains and rivers, thanks to Jiang Xian's superb driving skills, Liu Chan was spared a lot of bumps , to be honest, Jiang Xian has stayed in this position of servant for a long time, and it is reasonable to move up, but Liu Chan is not willing to let Jiang Xian's good handlebar style, and change to another person to drive, He was really worried, but this time Liu Chan secretly made up his mind to transfer Jiang Xian to another post after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven was over.

"Let's drive—" Huangmen's servant's high-pitched and resonant voice lingered and echoed over the Luoyang Palace for a long time.

The guard of honor for the emperor's travel, also known as Lubo, is divided into four types according to the type of travel: Dajia, Fajia, Xiaojia and Huanghuizhang.Dajia Lubo is used for such occasions as the suburban sacrifice. The suburban sacrifice is a great ceremony for the emperor to sacrifice to the heaven and the earth. In order to pray and bless the eternal state of the country and the well-being of the society, and also to show the emperor's supreme authority and dignity, the specification of the Dajia Lubo is naturally the highest. level.

With the support of his servants, Liu Chan boarded his own yellow chariot. Except for the emperor's chariot, there were a total of 81 chariots running side by side. Exhibitor recruitment is both pompous and strict, and orderly.

The emperor's travel is naturally the top priority in the palace, and only half of the Habayashi army guarding the palace is allocated to serve as the emperor's escort to protect the emperor's safety.

General Li Qiu is the commander of the guards on this trip, and it can be seen from his dignified face how important his responsibilities are.

Unlike guarding the palace, it is much more difficult to protect the safety of the emperor when he travels, because no one can guarantee whether he will encounter assassin attacks or various emergencies on the way. As the general of the guard, Li Qiu, He was in charge of the palace guards. Naturally, he didn't dare to be careless in this trip, and mobilized all the elite forces to ensure the safety of the emperor and his entourage.

Ma Bing, the governor of the left part of the Yubayashi, stayed in the palace, and Jiang Yuan, the governor of the right part of the Yubayashi, traveled with him. After all, the land of Luoyang was still the homeland of the former Jin Dynasty. At this time, it is difficult to guarantee that some diehards who attempt to restore the former dynasty will not attack Shengjia. This is what Li Qiu is very concerned about.

He had to be foolproof. Once something happened to the emperor, his position would be over.

After Liu Chan boarded the car, Li Qiu became more nervous, and said to Jiang Yuan, "This time your majesty is going out, we must do our best to ensure that your majesty is safe and sound."

There was a half-smile on Jiang Yuan's face, and he said to Li Qiu: "Don't worry, General, the humble position has already made arrangements."

Li Qiu didn't hear Jiang Yuan's subtext at all, he nodded and said, "So, I'm relieved." He patted Jiang Yuan's shoulder emphatically, and strode away.

Jiang Yuan was in his thirties, when he was in the prime of life. He looked at the back of Li Qiu leaving with a contemptuous smile on his lips. As Jiang Wei's son, how could Jiang Yuan not know his father's plan, In this plan, he is the most important part.

As the right governor of Yulin, Jiang Yuan was the closest person to the emperor. Jiang Wei wanted to implement military advice, but the most important thing was to control the emperor. Only by controlling the emperor's threat in his own hands could the next plan be implemented smoothly.

Jiang Yuan looked at Liu Chan on the car not far away, he was completely within his control, but now is still the time not to do anything, Jiang Yuan will only act according to the plan when he arrives at the designated place, and now, it is him While dormant, Jiang Yuan chose to continue with a calm expression.

Outside the Meridian Gate, civil and military officials were already waiting here, and they would drive with the emperor's car to the southern suburbs to participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven.

Those listed at the top of the civil and military officials were naturally Shang Shu Ling Huo Yi and Grand Sima Liu Yin, and it was obvious that there was still a vacant seat next to them, and that was the seat of General Jiang Wei.

How could Jiang Wei be late for such an important occasion?
Huo Yi couldn't help frowning, and said, "Why hasn't the general arrived yet?"

Liu Yin was calm, Jiang Wei didn't show up, it seemed that he had expected it, all signs showed that Jiang Wei would choose to do it on the day of the ceremony, if he really wanted to do it, he would definitely not do it again Appeared.

"Come on, hurry up and hurry up, His Majesty's car is about to leave." Huo Yi ordered the people around him, a little anxious.

Liu Yin remained calm, since Jiang Wei wasn't going to show up, there would be no point in urging him, Jiang Wei would definitely send someone to ask for leave later.

Sure enough, not long after, the person sent by Jiang Wei came to Huo Yi and said, "Master Huo, the general sent a villain to tell you that the general wanted to come, but suddenly he had a heart attack. , sick on the couch, unable to get up, I am afraid I will not be able to participate in today's ceremony."

Huo Yi was quite worried about Jiang Wei's health, and asked hastily, "What disease does the general suffer from, do you need the imperial physician to take a look at it?"

The person who came hurriedly said: "No need, the general's heart disease is an old problem, and he will recover after a few days of recuperation, but he cannot participate in the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven. The general expressed his regret and sent a villain to tell Master Huo And Da Sima, I ask you to take the trouble to host it on your behalf."
