On the seventh day of the sixth month, Emperor Xiaozhao was in funeral. The team set out from the front hall of Weiyang Palace. At the front is the Mingjing, which is three ren long and ten 2 times long. It drags the ground, draws the sun, the moon, and the dragon. The book says "The Coffin of the Emperor" and serves as the guide of the hearse.

According to the rules of the Han Dynasty, Wu Zhu played Fang Xiang, wearing a vicious Nuo mask, covered with bear skin, black clothes and red clothes, and holding a spear, as the pioneer of the team. It is said that evil ghosts and monsters like to eat the liver of the dead, so they have to rely on Fang Xiang to exorcise evil spirits.

Then there was Sima Zhenduo, a copper percussion instrument, shaped like a cube, with a tongue, like a big bell, which will make a crisp sound when vibrating. Eight people on the left and eight people on the right, knocking and striking forward, in order to command everyone to coordinate the speed of the team and the rhythm of the elegy. There were sixty people behind him dancing the Bayu dance.

Since there are music and dance, songs are naturally indispensable. From Shanglin Yuefu, the boys holding white silk followed the hearse and sang a low and sad elegy. They slowly left Chang'an and walked towards the cemetery, singing "Sacrificial Dew".

"The dew on the scallion, how can you Xi. The dew will fall again in the morning, when will you return after death?"

This was sung by his disciples after Tian Heng committed suicide in the early Han Dynasty. After singing, five hundred heroes on the island also committed suicide. During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, Li Yannian divided it into two songs, and sent it to the princes and nobles in "Sa Lu" and "Haoli" to the scholars and officials.

Then came the four-wheeled car driven by the Grandpa Du Yannian himself carrying Xiaozhao's coffin. Ren Hong and other three hundred lieutenants holding banners were next to him. Emperor Xiaozhao's guards and confidants were all here. Jin Sheng was next to Ren Hong.

Pingling is in Weibei, and it is already the boundary of Youfufeng. The team has arrived for a whole morning. Although it is rushing to build a construction period, Tian Yannian, who was in charge of the matter, successfully completed the task.

Like the Maoling that Ren Hong had seen, the mausoleum area was new, but the scale was much smaller than that of Han Wu. There was still a lot of empty land next to it. According to the rules of the Han Dynasty, the surrounding areas of the imperial tombs would be buried with meritorious officials, and they would be buried underground.

The most spectacular tomb of the tomb was naturally Liu Bang's Changling. More than 100 marquises founded in the founding country, and anyone with some contributions was close to him. Emperor Wu of Han was not inferior. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing's tomb were like two guards. Standing in the north of Maoling, with a horse stepping on the Huns, it was so majestic.

Even Huo Guang's tomb was already booked by Maoling, and he still believed that he was Xiaowu's subject.

Ren Hong couldn't help but sigh: "Even the late emperor is still lonely even after he left."

"I'll do it."

Jin Sang, who was standing beside him, said: "As long as the late emperor does not abandon my tomb, my tomb will be nearest to Emperor Xiaozhao. I was unable to be loyal when I was alive. After my death, I will be a slave to Emperor Xiaozhao!"

Jin Sang couldn't help it on the road just now, crying while walking, snotting and crying, as if he was regretful, and at this moment he even bowed to Pingling. He was really sincere. Maybe he was a double-faced spy and betrayed his childhood friend. Is it really a matter of love?

There is more than just Jin Chong alone who regretted it? Ren Hong caught a glimpse of the general Huo Guang who was holding the coffin here all the way. He was crowned with a long crown and robe. Today, he looked particularly solemn and had a lot of worries. He only regained some of his spirit when he was reading the posthumous title.

Huo Guang wanted to hide the golden cabin according to the rules, but there was nothing in the golden cabin. I wonder if he remembered the story of Duke Zhou and King Cheng.

"cry!"

At this time, Taichang knelt down and started the ceremony. The Great Honglu cried. Thousands of people in the funeral team cried loudly. After about fifteen breaths, they stopped crying. Thousands of people calmed down again. The long mourning had washed away all the only grief. Everyone was looking forward to the funeral ending quickly.

Ren Hong and the others stood in the east, and could see Liu He who was in the funeral at this time. He always knelt in the white cloth curtain and did it in a stern manner.

It's strange that since Anle was imprisoned by Ren Hong's rebel generals, Liu He suddenly became honest. After hearing Wang Ji's words, he even sent most of the more than 200 people from Changyi Kingdom back, which seemed to be a bit like an emperor. I don't know how long he could tolerate it. His nature was unchanging. Today is the seventh day of his ascension to the throne.

When the burial was completed, Huo Guang personally covered the emperor's inscription on the coffin with his own hands. Under the huge mountain, the deep and narrow tomb passage was closed out little by little.

The surrounding burial pits were filled with chariots and horses, and there were even two painted wooden camels driving. The Han Dynasty was humane, so naturally he would not kill hundreds of craftsmen to sacrifice to heaven like Qin II, and then dismembered and buried all the concubines of the late emperor. Perhaps some princes were secretly doing this kind of sacrifice, but the Han emperor himself took the lead in replacing the pottery figurines.

Although the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses look spectacular, they are too expensive. The burials of small-sized chariots and infantry yards are so small that they can be played with in their hands. In Ren Hong's eyes, they are simply...

“Figure.”

The funeral was half over, not just Ren Hong, but everyone was worried. For example, Shangguan Dan, sitting in the white cloth curtain next to the emperor, looking at the huge Pingling and the unfinished burial cave west of Pingling, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

In the Han system, the emperor and the empress must also be buried together after their deaths. The emperor is in the east and the empress is in the west. The enemy Liu Bang and Empress Lü, Baling Xiaowen and Empress Dou, Yangling Xiaojing and Empress Wang, and Maoling, the empress was Chen Ajiao at the beginning, but later became Wei Zifu. In the end, Mrs. Li, who was posthumously named the queen, was with Xiaowu.

But what Shangguan Dan thought of was Anling, Emperor Xiaohui and Empress Zhang Yan, the miserable couple.

Emperor Xiaohui was suppressed by his mother all his life and passed away at a young age. The two young emperors left behind were also called the Lü family's evil seeds, and were slaughtered by the meritorious marquises, and were directly killed.

However, Zhang Yan entered the palace as her queen at a young age, but had no birth. She did not die in the drastic changes. She was moved to the Youjing Beigong to live. It was not until the 25th year after Xiaohui passed away that she died of illness.

The dead are gone, and the remaining ones live secretly.

There is naturally a place next to Pingling, but when will I bear the phoenix crown of the "Empress Dowager" beside it?

Could it be like Zhang Yan, who was lonely in the palace for decades, from a fifteen-year-old girl to a fifty-year-old woman? And the wall of Huo really allowed her to rely on for the rest of her life?

On the way back, looking at Anling from afar, Shangguan Dan seemed to see her own destiny, but even though she understood, she was like a white butterfly wrapped in a spider web on the beam of the temple. Even though she wanted to break free, she had no choice.

Shangguan Dan closed his eyes, and two lines of tears flowed down his smooth cheeks. This time he was not crying for Emperor Xiaozhao, but for himself.

...

No matter what Shangguan Dan thought, after the funeral ceremony today, except for the Empress Dowager, the emperor and his close ministers in the palace were still mourning as rituals, and all the ministers changed into auspicious clothes and began to return to normalcy.

The Han Dynasty retreated from the great mourning that lasted for nearly two months and had to focus on the attack on the Huns that had been delayed for a long time.

"You said I am a regular attendant, why did you become the deputy commander of Daoyuan?"

Yang Yun shook his head, holding the seal of the deputy commander in his hand. Although he had told Zhang Chang that he would follow Ren Hong to attack the Huns, that was just a joke. This time he was stuffed into Ren Hong's team by Yang Chang, who was the prime minister.

Because Yang Chang seemed to be sure that Ren Hong would be able to make contributions, he wanted Yang Yun, who could not inherit the throne, to gilt.

Ren Hong still disliked Yang Yun, a guy who had never been on the battlefield: "Ziyou is the deputy commander, do you know how to march and fight?"

"don't know."

Yang Yun replied honestly: "But I am familiar with the past wars of the Han and the Hungarians. I can draw border maps with my eyes closed. I usually have documents and miscellaneous items, so I can directly hand them over to me to handle them to ensure that they are fast and good. I am also familiar with military law and can set rules and constraints for the long-term road."

He smiled and said, "When the law of the army, I will be the bad guys, and good guys will be the way to do it. After the war, I can only count my meager credit."

"You understand." Ren Hong really needs someone like this.

Yang Yun bowed to him: "I have nothing to ask for, I just hope that the road will be far away and don't be too aggressive, don't let me be Han Yannian."

Han Yannian was the deputy commander of the cavalry commander Li Ling during the Tianhan period. Because Han Yannian's father died bravely in the battle against the Nanyue Kingdom, Han Yannian was named Cheng Anhou by his father, but wanted to make real military achievements, so he reduced his value and went to war with his good friend Li Ling.

But unexpectedly, he never returned. At the last moment, Han Yannian fought with Li Ling and broke through with more than ten cavalry and pursued thousands of cavalry of the Huns. Han Yannian died bravely for the country, and Li Ling finally surrendered.

Ren Hongran, this is not the first time that someone has compared him with Li Ling. He did not answer Yang Yun, but only muttered: "Why is it 'Yannian' again?"

People who are called "Yannian" by the great man can probably circle Chang'an City!

"Who doesn't want to live long?"

Yang Yun laughed: "I have a friend from Yan Di, Han Yanshou. His father was killed by Yan Wang Dan. Now he is a counselor. He is also upright and upright. Do you want to know each other after a long journey?"

Ren Hong ignored him and thought to himself that the Han Dynasty's military system was a combination of recruitment and recruitment. The officials and infantry of the county and state were mainly recruited, while the cavalry mainly relied on recruiting good children from six counties to join the army.

When he went to Liangzhou, he brought Yang Yun and a dozen Lang Wei who were blocking Liu Hemen with him. In addition, when he was a lieutenant of the Qiang Guarding School in Jincheng, Zhang Yaoli, Han Gandang, Zhao Haner, Xin Qingji and other teams, the general also agreed to his recruitment. In this way, the officer group will have a culture and qualifications.

When he left Hengmen with Yang Yun and others in Chang'an, Ren Hong said in his heart: "When I finished recruiting troops and came back to report, I am afraid that it will be autumn. At that time, Liu He should have stepped down?"

History has changed, and Ren Hong can't say whether this will be true.

Whether it is better, let the high-ranking officials and nobles in Chang'an go to the vast world to move their hands and feet first.

Yang Yun, who was standing by, was still asking: "Daolong arrived in Liangzhou. How do you plan to start recruiting soldiers? Do you want me to write a essay that is so brilliant that it can be passed down through the ages?"

"Can the people of Liangzhou understand the verses you wrote?" Yang Yun did not understand Liangzhou at all.

Ren Hong gave him a blank look: "No need to persuade me too much. Just insert the banner of my Xi'an Marquis into the cities of each county, and then put the three cars of gold given by the Shuiheng Duke to the flag!"

Want money? Come! Want meritorious? Are you afraid that you will not be able to make contributions after following the Xi'an Marquis?

"That's it?" Yang Yun smiled and Ren Hong was too confident: "By your name, can the rebellious children of the six counties of Liangzhou respond one after another?"

"If you think it's not enough, let's have another shout."

"What's the matter?"

Ren Hong rode his horse and smiled confidently: "The young man with a brocade belt and a Wu hook, and rode alone on a horse to find a title of marquis!"
