Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Inside the Jinxiang Palace in the Imperial City of Tokyo, Fu Jinzhan saw two rows of people prostrating behind the translucent curtain.

"The ministers and others congratulate the Great Zhou on opening up the territory, and hope that the emperor will return to the court with victory..."

Among these people, including the most powerful people in the world, as well as the prime minister, they are all masters who stand above billions of people. But they can only bow their heads in front of Fu Jinzhan, and she is just a woman who has lived in the palace for a long time.

After the court, Concubine Du and other women surrounded her and retreated to the lounge at the back. All the court ladies bowed their eyebrows to her in reverence and awe, and worshiped her power and dignity. Fu Jinzhan looked back at her surroundings with a slight smile in her eyes. She enjoyed this kind of pampered life very much, but she never got carried away.

Experience and insight made her very clear: women are weak, but they are also very strong.

Women are weak, and everything in the world needs men to manage and run around. They can only stay in the courtyard house, attached to all these, and most of the women who show their faces have no strength; But women are not so weak, whoever wants to bully can be bullied. Since the Han Dynasty, there have been women who listened to the government behind the curtain and controlled the destiny of the entire country. In the Tang Dynasty, there were even women who called the emperor the lord of the world.

Fu Jinzhan walked up to a crystal glass vat, and first turned to glance at the hall, all the maids standing next to her bowed their knees to face her. This hall was originally a house where Guo Shao asked people to clean up and take a rest after daily work, but the appearance is very different now, because there are more plants in the room.

The palace room was clean and tidy. After Fu Jinzhan was active here, he asked someone to bring in some irises. The beautiful blue flowers and green leaves immediately decorated the palace room with rich colors. Not only the colors, but also added vitality. The feeling is completely different. In addition to the iris, there is also a water tank made of glass on the table, in which there is a budding lotus and two small fishes. They were all carefully selected and pruned by the gardeners in the palace.

Jinzhan stretched out Yubai's hands from his sleeves, picked up a few pieces of fish food between his fingers, and threw them on the water with a smile. There were slight ripples on the surface of the water immediately, and the fish that had sunk to the bottom also swayed.

She turned her head and said to Concubine Du: "These things are beautiful but weak. Without the care of the maids, they will soon become ugly."

Concubine Du hurriedly echoed cautiously.

What Jinzhan said seemed to be a little sighed, but she didn't hurt the spring and autumn, because the smile on her face didn't disappear. She is also an optimistic person. As long as there are no major events related to her life, she is usually in a good mood. She has experienced a lot of fear, and she is very satisfied with the current situation.

Jinzhan squinted her eyes to look at the water again, maybe others thought she was looking at the fish. In fact, she was looking at the ripples and ripples on the water surface, just like the restlessness in her heart at this moment... looking forward to it.

She didn't expect Guo Shao to come back soon after going out for more than two months. In the past two months, she had to deal with state affairs and pamper her every day. It was not boring, but it was day after day; but now, a kind of expectation broke the peace of her heart, like ripples on the surface of water, which made her mind restless|restless.

Fu Jinzhan didn't look at it for a while, then walked to the side of a pot of irises. Looking at the delicate blue flowers, she wanted to get closer to smell its fragrance. But she didn't move, because such an action was too frivolous, and she had to pay attention to her majesty.

At this time, eunuch Cao Tai walked to the door, took a look inside, bowed, walked in respectfully, presented some paper items, and said softly, "My lady, this is a letter received by the Privy Council. It was sent back from the Qianying Military Mansion in Hedong, and there is also a letter from Your Majesty."

Fu Jinzhan received it in his hand, flipped through it, took a copy from it and put it in his sleeve pocket. The envelope of this letter is written in Guo Shao's handwriting to Fu Ermei. The rest were all official|official documents, she read them carefully, and there was only one letter before handing it back to Cao Tai.

"I will give the letter to the Queen (Second Sister Fu) personally." Fu Jinzhan said calmly.

Cao Tai bowed and said, "Here."

But she felt a great loss in her heart. After such a long time, she was still not used to Guo Shao only writing letters to Fu Ermei when he was away. She knew the reason, thinking that Guo Shao wrote a lot of letters to herself when he attacked Shu, but didn't send any of them back... She knew everything, but this reason didn't make her feel disappointed.

She even feels uncomfortable in her heart. Only women can understand the discomfort of sharing a man's heart with other women, and Fu Jinzhan is not immune... Even in this world, "gentlemen" have had three wives and four concubines since ancient times. But reason doesn't work unless she doesn't have a heart.

That discomfort is simple. Thinking of Guo Shao's private affairs with himself, and treating others like that, who can bear it?

There are some things she can't help but is just forced to accept. She understands that as the eldest son of the Fu family, the second sister Fu gave birth to the eldest son, which is of great benefit to the solid status of the Fu family and for herself... Didn't the second sister Fu make the marriage with Guo Shao by herself? Moreover, as the emperor and son of heaven, if he favors only one person, it will be detrimental to the stability of the country.

Fu Jinzhan is not a woman from a small family, she understands the rules of the nobles and the royal family.

She put her hands on her front abdomen and paced slowly. Perhaps, women are more likely to think wildly and think too much.

Fu Jinzhan's mood was turbulent, but the place was still peaceful, and the irises were blooming delicately in the exquisitely carved palace.

...

Outside the city of Luzhou in the east of the river, the sky was full of dust and noisy.

The army was already approaching Luzhou, Guo Shao was wearing armor, riding a horse and marching along the road to the front tower surrounded by the crowd. His neck was full of ashes, and his mouth was rustling, like the feeling of sand in his mouth after drinking dirty water... The post road is a loess dirt road, and there are many people and horses on the road, and it is inevitable to fly sand and dirt in the sky on a sunny day.

In the blurred vision, I saw a large group of people kneeling down on the side of the road in the distance. Soon, people shouted: "Murong Yanzhao, the envoy of the Zhaoyi Army, leads the civil and military affairs of Luzhou, welcome Your Majesty!"

After Guo Shao rode in and rode in, he could see the people kneeling in the dust by the side of the road. The bearded man in armor was Murong Yanzhao. These warriors were very submissive at this time, and when they knelt down, they almost threw themselves on the ground, not thinking the ground was dirty at all.

"General Murong is dead." Guo Shao shouted.

Everyone shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty Long En."

Murong Yanzhao got up, and said from the side of the road: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, you have conquered the Eastern Han Dynasty in one fell swoop, and you have achieved a complete victory! The army and people of Luzhou are all celebrating! The general will be invited by the people of Luzhou to come and reward the king."

Guo Shaodao: "For the military order given to you by the Qianying Military Mansion, it is enough to prepare food and grass well."

"Yes, the general has been prepared as ordered."

At this moment, Guo Shao saw a large group of people in front of him again, so he asked Murong Yanzhao who followed him: "I have issued an order not to disturb the people along the road. With such a big exclusion, the minister will write a letter to persuade the people to delay farming."

Murong Yanzhao hurriedly said: "The people are not summoned by the government, but they themselves want to watch the excitement."

He paused, clasped his fists and said, "The final general dare not hide anything. There are rumors among the people that His Majesty is the reincarnation of the God of Heaven, Dayi, so come to see God..."

Guo Shao was astonished. The accompanying Wang Pu and others did not say a word. Everyone knows that Yi is the legendary person who shot down nine suns and saved the world from the scorching sun. He is regarded as a positive god. It is inconvenient for local officials to stop such rumors among the people.

Guo Shao waited for a while and found incense burning on the side of the road! All the people worshiped in the direction of the yellow roof on the land far away.

Wang Pu and others did not enter into the ban. Guo Shao pondered for a while, and then he was relieved. Anyway, it is enough for the people around him to know that he is still human. The soldiers are a little superstitious about themselves, maybe it can improve morale... The pace of the war has not yet come to a stop!

He immediately sent another order: "The army is large in number, and it is forbidden to enter the city. We will camp outside the city tonight."

All the ministries stopped one after another, and stationed in camps according to the deployment of the Chinese army.

When Guo Shao was waiting for the Chinese army to set up camp, he sat on his horse and looked northeast for a long time. It was in the direction of Youzhou; Youyun Sixteen States is a place that cannot be let go for thousands of years, especially for people living in this era, it means too much. Civil and military officials such as Wang Pu and Li Chuyun all saw his actions, and the emperor was always the object of attention of people around him.

But to take Youzhou, at least not now; the soldiers have just finished the battle, and the troops are exhausted; all preparations are not perfect. Guo Shao let out a long breath, turned over and jumped off the horse vigorously, and threw the reins to Lu Chengyong, the general in front of him; he didn't use the whip, because the black horse he was sitting on didn't need a whip at all.

Guo Shao looked to the south again, but he couldn't see anything on the horizon, only some villages were in sight. But he knew that the Yellow River was very close.

At this time, the vanguard of the pre-built pontoon bridge on the Yellow River may also be completed. As long as the army crosses the Yellow River, Tokyo is almost in sight. He seems to have seen the prosperity of Tokyo, especially in this season, where the vegetation is lush and vibrant, the pavilions are densely populated, and the scenery is completely different from the frontier...

The beautiful women in the court, the days of rich clothes and good food are coming; and the family members who miss him back home, Guo Shao really feels like coming home at this time, very warm. He was very happy and relaxed for a while, as if his tired body was soaked in a hot spring, soft, and he had temporarily forgotten the continuous mental tension.
