Farmer of Shu Han Chapter 1048

Chapter 1048 Chang'an asked about the funeral

It can be said that Emperor Wu watched how the Shu people grew from a place of nowhere to a Han country with four states.

At that time, Liu Bei only won one and a half states, and Emperor Wu couldn't wait to ask Liu Bei to give up Jingzhou.

Not to mention, the current Han Lord is Liu Chan, who can be regarded as his junior.

It was precisely because of this that Emperor Wu's heart became more and more unbalanced.

Why?

The Liu family father and son had no place to stand at first. If it weren't for Jiangdong's help, how could Liu Bei be able to gain a foothold in several counties in Jingzhou?

Later, Liu Bei relied on several counties in Jingzhou to enter Shu to establish a foundation, and this is how he now has the four states in the world.

And what about Wu Guo, who has been making great efforts during this period?

After so many years, it is still only the land of three states.

It's not fair!

The more Emperor Wu thought this way, the more anxious he became uncontrollable.

He couldn't wait for the people from the school affairs office to take his secret letter to Shudi immediately.

In the school office, Qin Bo is the only one who has been to Sichuan, so this trip is naturally the most suitable for him.

From Jianye to Jiangling by boat, and then from Jiangling to Shu, Qin Bo didn't even stop in Jincheng, and rushed to Hanzhong without stopping.

That's the case, when Qin Bo came to Hanzhong, it was already the middle of February of the fifteenth year of Jianxing.

When we left Jianye, the weather was still chilly.

When I first entered Shu, there was already a slight warmth.

When I arrived in Hanzhong, it was already spring and flowers were blooming.

In Hanzhong in the early spring, the water level of the Han River is higher than that in winter, and the mighty water looks a little yellowish.

On the bank of the river, light yellow and tender green grass sprouts emerged from the patches of last year's withered grass.

Among the green and misty willow rows beside the road, from time to time, the figure of a swallow like scissors flashed by.

Facing the beautiful scenery on a good day that is different from Jiangnan, Qin Bo is not in the mood to appreciate it.

The last time he came to Han, he got unexpected results.

And this time, he hoped to live up to His Majesty's expectations.

But since he entered Hanzhong, especially when he came to Nanzheng where the Emperor's Palace of the Han family was located, he found that the atmosphere here was a bit depressing.

The officials who received him looked even more sad.

This made him a little puzzled.

Didn't it mean that the Han people won a great victory in the first battle of Guanzhong, and took the second state of Bingyong from the Wei thief?

Why do these people look like their own adults are seriously ill and dying?

Han Lord Liu Chan learned that Wu Lord personally sent someone to deliver the letter, and soon received Qin Bo.

When he read Bi Sunquan's letter, he couldn't help sighing, and said to Qin Bo:

"Han and Wu are originally allies, and Lord Wu wants to attack thieves. Logically speaking, is there any reason for the big Han not to assist?"

Speaking of this, Liu Chan's face was full of sadness:

"Just two days before the arrival of the Wu envoy, Guanzhong sent an urgent report."

Qin Bo's heart skipped a beat: "Guanzhong?"

Although something was wrong, Qin Bo still asked rudely:

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, but the Wei thief sent troops and wants to re-enter Guanzhong?"

(Note: During the alliance between Han and Wu, they recognized each other as the emperor, and all the envoys called themselves ministers, and also called the emperor of the other party His Majesty.)

A Dou shook his head:

"The thieves were terrified in the first battle in Guanzhong. How dare they return to Guanzhong? Even if the thieves come to attack, the big man still has strong generals and elite soldiers stationed in Guanzhong. How can he be afraid of them?"

Qin Bo: …

Recalling that Zhuge Kongming and Feng Mingwen were both leading troops stationed in Guanzhong, Qin Bo shut his mouth wisely.

The two teamed up to annex Yongzhou and the two prefectures in one fell swoop. Even if the top general of Wu State came over, he would not dare to hold him accountable in front of them.

It's just that if there is no danger in Guanzhong, why did the Lord of Han say that there is an urgent report in Guanzhong?

A Dou didn't keep Qin Bo waiting too long, he gave the answer himself:

"After the beginning of spring, the prime minister's condition worsened, so the Guanzhong army may not be able to move lightly."

Qin Bo was horrified when he heard the words: "Prime Minister Zhuge's condition worsened?"

A Dou nodded: "Of course. Now the whole country is worried about the prime minister's illness. I have sent envoys several times to visit Guanzhong."

When Qin Bo heard the words, he suddenly realized, no wonder all the officials in Hanzhong were worried.

In fact, the prime minister's condition is more serious than what A Dou said.

In winter, the prime minister rarely leaves his bed.

However, judging from the news from Guanzhong, the prime minister at that time was still in good spirits.

I never thought of the beginning of spring, and I don't know if it's cold and cold in spring, and the unpredictable weather makes people unable to guard against it.

The prime minister first suffered from the wind and cold, and he didn't recover for a long time. In the end, his condition got worse and he couldn't get up from the couch.

Before the death of Li Hui and Zhao Yun, this was basically the case. When encountering climate change, the body could not stand it.

So the prime minister's current situation had to make him worry.

Nowadays, between Hanzhong and Guanzhong, there is a constant flow of messengers, and its density is almost comparable to when the war in Guanzhong was the most stalemate.

The court has even begun to discuss the matter behind the prime minister, so if you want to hide this matter from the Wu envoy, you must not be able to hide it.

Even if you can hide it for a while, you can't hide it for long.

It is better to explain directly to the other party to show frankness.

Qin Bo knew that Zhuge Kongming was left alone by his legacy, continued to flourish, and assisted Ji Han. He made great achievements and had an unshakable position in Ji Han.

Now that he is leading the army and is seriously ill, even Hanzhong in the rear has fallen into uneasiness.

Not to mention the Guanzhong frontline army, I am afraid that the morale of the army is even more floating.

So it is impossible for Han to contain Wei in the west.

Thinking of this, Qin Bo couldn't help but have a look of sadness on his face, and sighed endlessly.

I don't know whether he is lamenting the illness of Prime Minister Zhuge, or the frustration of his own emperor's plan.

After coming out of the palace of Emperor Ji Han and returning to the post house, Qin Bo didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, and immediately sent a messenger to Wu to report this important news.

What Qin Bo didn't know was that the messenger he sent had just set off, while the minister servant sent by the emperor of the Han family shot Li Fu, and he was already walking on Meridian Road.

From Hanzhong to Guanzhong, the Ziwu Road is the most difficult, but it is the closest to Chang'an.

In order to get to Chang'an as soon as possible, Li Fu did not hesitate to take this most difficult road.

The terrain of Ziwu Valley is dangerous and rugged, and people are not allowed to ride horses, but can only walk.

And there is no water source for a section, or, for the army, there is not enough water source.

Even in spring, when the winter snow first melts, there are only some small springs popping up occasionally in the mountains.

However, the number of people in Li Fu's group is not too many, so these small springs are enough.

For that to be the case, Li Fu and the others walked in a bit of a panic, and had to change the wide-sleeved and wide-sleeved clothes into tight-fitting daily clothes with narrow sleeves.

When Li Fu and his party came out of the valley, someone was already waiting at the valley entrance:

"The last general, Guan Suo, was ordered by General Zhengxi to welcome the angel."

Li Fu didn't remember who Guan Suo was at first, but when he heard General Zhengxi, he immediately realized:

"It turned out to be General Huwei under the command of General Zhengxi, sorry for the disrespect!"

Seeing the stern and handsome young general in front of him again, Li Fu couldn't help admiring again:

"Everyone in the world knows that General Zhengxi has the knowledge of people, and all his subordinates are talented and talented people. If you are sincere, you will not deceive me!"

The unsmiling General Guan showed a rare smile when he heard the words:

"Angel is overwhelmed. The angel came from a long way and walked the dangerous road. It must be exhausting. The board and lodging have been arranged in the end. Angel please."

Li Fu waved his hands again and again: "No, no, please, General Guan, please wait for some hot food and soup for me. After I have finished my hunger, I have to go to see the prime minister immediately."

Li Fu's age is not too young, and his face is full of exhaustion after walking this journey.

It's just that he was ordered by the emperor to visit the prime minister as soon as possible, and he didn't want to delay for a moment.

Guan Suo saw that he insisted on this, so he had to ask someone to bring the soup prepared in advance.

Li Fu couldn't care less about etiquette at this time, but seeing him devouring his meal, he couldn't wait to ask Guan Suo to lead the way to Chang'an City.

As soon as he arrived in Chang'an City, Li Fu felt a sense of strictness.

Changan city gate guards lined up, with bright armor, and on the wide streets, checkpoints were set up in many places.

Li Fu couldn't help but asked Guan Suo:

"General Guan, did something happen to Chang'an City? I see that there are not many pedestrians in such a big city?"

Guan Suo knew what he meant, and replied in a low voice:

"An angel will know when he sees the prime minister."

Is it really because of the prime minister?

Li Fu came all the way, already harboring a lot of worries in his heart, but now hearing Guan Suo's words, he couldn't help being even more worried.

Following Guan Suo to the front of the government office, he saw a person standing in front of the gate from a distance.

After getting closer, the person standing at the front made a big salute:

"Feng Yong pays homage to the angel."

"General Zhengxi doesn't need to be polite."

Feng Yong stood up, stretched out his hand and said:

"Angel, please, the prime minister has been waiting for the angel for a long time."

Li Fu didn't have too much politeness, and walked in immediately.

Before seeing the prime minister, Li Fu first took a shower and changed into a fine attire, then entered the prime minister's bedroom and came to the sick bed.

Most of the prime minister's body was hidden under the quilt, but the two arms pressed on the quilt were like dry wax, and the joints of the fingers had been exposed.

His face was pale and thin, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, only those eyes still had a little light.

Seeing Li Fu coming, the prime minister opened his mouth, made a few hoo-hoo sounds, and then spoke:

"Sun De is here? But His Majesty sent you here?"

Seeing the Prime Minister's appearance, Li Fu's heart was heavy. He leaned forward, only to scare the seriously ill Prime Minister, and said softly:

"Return to the prime minister, it is, the emperor sent me to announce the decree."

"Declaration? Okay, plain text, and help me up..."

Li Fu hastily stretched out his hand and pressed it falsely, and stopped him:

"It's okay, it's okay! The emperor said it himself: the first emperor ordered me to serve as a prime minister like a father, and now my prime minister's father is seriously ill. I can't go to the bed to serve soup and medicine. I feel guilty."

"Today send an envoy to Chang'an to visit Xiangfu, and the decree must be simple."

Speaking of this, Li Fu paused, and continued:

"The Son of Heaven specifically told me that when we see the prime minister, no matter whether the prime minister is sitting or lying down, we must not let the prime minister get up, just declare the decree."

After hearing this, the prime minister had an expression of joy, relief and sadness on his face, with tears shining in his eyes:

"Son of Heaven...Your Majesty, minister, I am ashamed! The late emperor entrusted ministers to bring back the bandits, but the ministers did not work. Your Majesty did not punish the crimes committed by the ministers. Instead, he treated the ministers with great courtesy, and the ministers are ashamed!"

Standing behind Li Fu, Feng Yong clenched his teeth, turned his head away, and sucked his nose hard, trying to **** back the sourness in his eyes.

Li Fu said a few more words of comfort to the prime minister, and then unfolded the imperial decree and began to read it out.

In fact, there is nothing to say. The words in it are nothing more than that A Dou is letting Xiangfu recover from his illness and expressing his deep concern.

At the same time, he did not forget to flatter Xiangfu, saying only that Xiangfu "reorganizes the six divisions, recruits at all ages, with great martial arts, mighty towns and wildernesses, will make great contributions to Ji Han, and participate in the great honors of Yi and Zhou. "

After the announcement, Li Fu served the decoction on behalf of the emperor.

Only after everyone went out, Li Fu sat in front of the prime minister's bed and asked:

"Blessed by the order of the emperor, I came to the army to greet you and consult with the country. The prime minister has led the army for a year, and all affairs in the court are now handled by the emperor himself."

"The Son of Heaven is worried that there will be omissions. Dare to ask if there is anyone in the court who is competent for state affairs?"

The Prime Minister had a smile on his face:

"In my teacher's list, there is a saying: Guo Youzhi, Fei Yi, Dong Yun and others are the late emperor Jianba who left your majesty. The affairs in the palace are not big or small. If you consult them well, there will be no hindrance. Why do you need to ask more questions? "

"The affairs outside the palace are led by Shangshutai. Jiang Gongyan's weapon of the country can praise the king's career. The public has a keen knowledge and is keen on politics. Shangshutai has two people like you, so I don't have to worry about it."

Li Fu heard this, nodded, and then asked:

"The army has initially settled in Guanzhong, and people's hearts may not be stable. According to the prime minister, can Chang'an be kept?"

Although he didn't fully explain it clearly, the prime minister knew that Li Fu was asking if he really died, would it cause turmoil in the army and make it impossible to defend Guanzhong.

Li Fu thought that the prime minister had already prepared for this problem.

Never thought that the prime minister would close his eyes and remain silent for a long time.

This made Li Fu's heart suddenly lifted.

Seeing that the prime minister had been silent, Li Fu couldn't help but asked tentatively:

"Prime Minister, I think Feng Ming has both civil and military skills, and has repeatedly made outstanding achievements. Can he lead the army to guard the pass?"

The Prime Minister finally opened his eyes and sighed:

"If you only talk about defending Guanzhong, Feng Mingwen is enough!"

Li Fu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good."

The prime minister moved his lips when he heard what Li Fu said, but he didn't make a sound.

Both the palace and the army outside the palace were prepared, and Li Fu's worries were finally completely put down.

He talked to the prime minister again, and then he saw that the prime minister seemed to be drowsy, and he knew that the prime minister was exhausted, so he hurriedly resigned.

The Son of Heaven in Hanzhong was still anxiously waiting for his news. Li Fu just rested in Chang'an for a day, and immediately returned to Hanzhong.

Unexpectedly, he just walked into Meridian Valley, and suddenly slapped his thigh:

"Oops! I actually forgot a big thing!"

After speaking, he immediately turned around, and before he could get out of the valley, he got on his horse and galloped all the way back to Chang'an City.

When the prime minister learned that Li Fu had gone and returned, he said with a smile:

"I know the intention of the king's visit, but the words of the day before yesterday were endless, so I will have a decisive battle."

Speaking of this, he sighed deeply, "What you asked, I have been undecided these days."

Li Fu saluted deeply:

"Blessed by the order of the emperor, I asked the prime minister, who will be the one who will be in charge of the big event after a hundred years. I was in a hurry and lost my consultation, so I came back."
