Chapter 533 Uncle

"General of the chariot, general of the chariot!"

The day before his expedition, the emperor was having a banquet in the palace, but Ren Hong met Zhao Chongguo at the Sima Gate of the bus. This old guy had a strong agility that was inconsistent with his age. He strided forward so that Ren Hong could catch up with him with a trot.

Before Zhao Chongguo could bear his ears, he heard the sound, and looked back at Ren Hong running out of breath, and couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It's only 35 years old?"

“Thirty four.”

"Only thirty-four?"

Zhao Chongguo didn't know whether he was envious or regretful, but stroked his beard and said, "I am seventy-six years old, I'm leaving faster than you!"

Only the old general could speak to Ren Hong like this: "Now the imperial court has selected thousands of personal guards from the eight schools, and imitating the ancient Wei Wushu. He had to wear dozens of kilograms of iron armor, hold spears, belts and knives, carry crossbow machines and fifty crossbow arrows on his back, carry two naans for food and grass a day, until dawn, and walk thirty miles. If the road is far away, he may not even be a personal guard."

This standard is obviously much lower than that of Wei Wushu, and only more than a thousand people can meet the standard. Ren Hong smiled and said, "Without any such a man under Hong's command, why worry about Zhizhi not breaking it?"

Zhao Chongguo joked while patting Ren Honggu's belly and said, "Daoyuan has to practice more, don't drag the army down."

The two walked into the palace together. Ren Hong couldn't help feeling relieved when he saw that Zhao Chongguo was not forced to support him, but was indeed in excellent health.

After the destruction of the Huns, there were almost no enemies around the Han Dynasty. Even the Qiang Rebellion in the West was pacified in advance. The rebellious people were driven to the plateau. The rest were also keen on tea deals with the Han people, exchanging salt and horses for tea cakes.

The only thing worth worrying about is whether Dingling, Xianbei and Wuhuan in the north will become a big shot. Although Ren Hong cut the grassland into pieces and supported the Buddhism of Milanda, the upper and lower classes of the Huns placed their hopes on the reincarnation of Han nobles and the common people in the next life. But what do you know if there will be an anomaly. The stirrup saddle is too simple, and the iron can be replaced by other materials. After the Han army used it, it gradually spread out. The impact is immeasurable.

But as long as Zhao Chongguo is in one day, there is no need to worry. The old man lived in his seventies. Since joining the army, he has witnessed the rise and fall of the Han Dynasty for a whole 60 years. He calmly used his troops and knew the reality of the four barbarians. Once Ren Hong left, Zhao Chongguo would become the leader of the military generals in the court. With him in charge, he would not be afraid of clowns jumping.

Look at this, the old general can last at least ten years, right?

"I am also afraid of those who are enemies." As the two of them spoke, Zhao Chongguo said so.

"The general has some fear? Who is it?"

Zhao Chongguo laughed in a low voice and said, "Who else can be there? Of course, it's up to you!"

Ren Hongyi was shocked: "How could Hong be an enemy of the general?"

Zhao Chongguo curled his smile: "I hope so too."

Ren Hong understood that Zhao Chongguo's concern was because he was afraid that he would turn against the court after leaving the Han Dynasty, just like King Xin of Han and Lu Wan, who were like the old general, and he sincerely said: "General, please rest assured that no matter where Hong is or what he does, he is a Han minister and will never have any confrontation with the Han Dynasty."

"It's just like what the general said five years ago. When the general comes to be a big Han, no one can get into the shield, and I will be a big Han's spear that can get into the spear! But the contradictions will never fight each other!"

Zhao Chongguo believed it: "That's good, I just took the initiative to ask."

"After Daoyuan fought Zhizhi, he probably wouldn't go back to Chang'an? Where do you plan to settle down?"

Coincidentally, the night before yesterday, Ren Hong told Geng Shouchang and Liu Gengsheng that he had finished the funeral, and the emperor summoned him to the palace, and did not let others get drunk. Only the king and his ministers drank until midnight, and it seemed that they had said a lot when they returned to Shangguanlizhong.

While drinking, Liu Xun seemed to be concerned and asked Ren Hong this question tentatively.

It seemed that everyone was not worried about Ren Hong's battle against Zhizhi, and he only felt that he would win. Ren Hong couldn't help but think that if he had blown so much in advance and brewed so much, and finally he was proud to go west, but he lost when he beat Zhizhi and ran back in shame, then he would be a magical act.

When Liu asked about it the night before, although Ren Hong was drunk, he did not reveal his ultimate goal. That would be too timid and even scared the emperor. However, if he was too close to the Han Dynasty, it would make Liu Xun feel like Zhao Chongguo.

Therefore, Ren Hong only told the emperor another place, a place that was neither far nor near.

The location was also related to Liu Xun's life experience, which successfully moved the emperor again.

Seeing Ren Hong stopping and not answering, Zhao Chongguo thought it was him who was unwilling to say it, and said, "There will be a long way to go to war tomorrow. I have nothing to give you. The richest man of Xi'an is not short of rare things."

Zhao Chongguo was sucking in his arms. This scene looked so familiar. Sure enough, he finally took out a copper coin - the red copper is the red copper, and the money is blue, which is out of print. In the north of Mo, Zhao Chongguo used this money to meet Ren Hongchai to see who went northwest.

"When I was the commander of Shuiheng, I cast countless millions of dollars in Shanglin. This one is the most special one. After the Battle of Dongtianshan, I have been with me for decades. Every time I fight, I will bring it, which can also be considered a fortune."

"There is it to capture the Xiqi King of Xiqi, the Di in the Wudu, the Xiqian in the Pingjin City, and the battle of Shiqihe, it is also there!"

The front hall was right in front, and the copper coins were skillfully thrown to the high place by Zhao Chongguo. After falling, they were slapped in Ren Hong's palm by the old general.

Hiss, Zhao Chongguo's hand is so powerful that Ren Hong's palms are slapped red!

"Take it with you." Zhao Chongguo said goodbye to Ren Hong.

"After going west, if you really don't decide what to go, and if you hesitate to return in the end, let the heavens settle down!"

...

Today's banquet was mainly for the generals who fought in the west. The generals saw him off. He was held in the front hall. All civil and military officials arrived, but it was a good opportunity for the emperor to show his kindness to Ren Hong, and it also prevented the people from secretly rumoring that Ren Hong was exiled to be a hero who was a hero who was a cold-hearted person.

"Get armor!"

Liu Xun looked quite happy. After three rounds of wine, he called on all the ministers to greet the Marquis of Xi'an to make a strong move. He waved his hand and sent someone a pair of gorgeous bright light armor.

The emperor stood up and told everyone the story of this armor:

"This armor was originally made by the Grand Secretary's Armor six years ago and sent it to the palace. I occasionally wore it when I inspected the eight schools. However, the armor should be given to the heroes and should not be covered in dust in the palace. Therefore, I asked to change its color and match Taibai. Today, together with the Shangshu's Ma Jian, I will give it to the Grand Secretary's General of Cavalry!"

The color was indeed changed. The original black and red were replaced with white. The place where the leather was used was also covered with the precious white tiger skin. On the left and right shoulders, the twelve chapters were replaced, and replaced by the "white tiger pattern" among the two "Four God Patterns".

This is really a creation of Ren Hong as Taibaixing, and he is almost like giving him a white tiger as a mount.

The emperor personally gave the armor, which was already a treatment that the officials and generals present admired. The ministers nodded and praised it, but the more exaggerated one after another.

When Liu Xun asked Ren Hong to test armor in the hall, he asked someone to bring out a lacquer plate with two brightly colored arm guards placed on it. This object is usually an arrow, and is tied to the arm during battle to protect it from being injured by bowstrings or to prevent the hard armor from rubbing against the skin.

Ren Hong was happy to see this thing, but he saw that the arm guard should be made of precious Shu brocade, colorful and rich in texture, including male, female, dogwood, cloud pattern, sun, open mouth and tongue with evil-swept beasts, vertical stripes, white tigers with wide eyes, the most surprising thing is the embroidered characters on it.

"Five stars come out of the east to benefit China, fight against the Western Barbarians, and the Shanyu surrenders; Taibai comes out, four barbarians subjugate, and they will be defeated in every battle!"

Corresponding to the left and right, the five colors of blue, red, yellow, white and black just correspond to the Sui Star, Ying Huo Star, Fen Star, Taibai Star and Chen Star.

"Xi'an Hou Ke still likes this arm guard?"

If you like it, of course you like it, it is indeed a good start. Ren Hongdao: "Your Majesty's gift can be passed down from family, and I am afraid I will not be willing to use it on weekdays."

This is the truth. If it can be preserved until two thousand years later, it will be a complete national treasure. The words on it, plus its legendary story, will be enough to perform several TV series.

Liu Xun was happy today. Regardless of the emperor's honor, he actually wanted to join Ren Hong's unit in public. After Ren Hong repeatedly pushed him, he even made a lot of news.

The emperor glanced at the ministers in the front hall and smiled and said, "It's not to be hiding the lords. In fact, this arm protection was not made by the woven room, but it was my request to the Empress Dowager and the Queen to spend a month, and they personally woven it!"

Ren Hong had to refuse even more: "I am lucky to be ordered to go to war, so how dare I accept the belongings of the Empress Dowager and the mother of the world?"

"The General of the Cavalry deserves it."

Liu Xun held Ren Hong and refused to let him bow. He put his arm guard on Ren Hong's hand and whispered to him: This thing is not a gift from the emperor."

There was a flash of tears in his eyes, as if it was indeed not Liu Xun, but Liu Bingyi, who was talking to Ren Hong at this moment.

"This is a farewell gift from Yan Ye to Pingjun."

"Please accept it, uncle!"

...

When he left the palace, Ren Hong had already put on the white tiger pattern armor, and it was hard to refuse his affection. The moment the emperor tied his arm guards for him, Ren Hong was indeed a little moved.

As for why the two of them didn't give it to him privately when drinking the night before, but chose to be in public. Whether they acted more or had more true feelings, Ren Hong didn't want to think about it this time.

If you think about fighting all the time in the future, you will never have a chance.

But now, Ren Hongxiao looked at the arm guard in his hand with interest.

It is not surprising that Xu Pingjun can weave brocades. After all, he was a hard-working family. When he was in Shangguanli, he also weaved children's clothes to Ren Bai. The two families gave each other many gifts during the holidays.

But Shangguan Dan has been in the palace since he was a child and is really good at weaving things?

"It doesn't mean it."

Ren Hong laughed and said to himself: "Is it woven by Empress Dowager Shangguan? Is it on the left or the right?"

...
