At that time, two tribe members, Liu Fang and Liu Yi, came from Yedu to bring some news about Liu Cong and Mrs. Cai, but that was the first time before the New Year. After a year, I don’t know what their situation is today.

Liu shook his head and said, "Mrs. Cai remarried Xiahou Yi, the younger brother of Xiahou Yuan. Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the year, Xiahou Yi unfortunately passed away again. Mrs. Cai became a widow again, but this time it is probably difficult for her to marry again."

"Why?" Liu Jing asked in confusion.

"People in Yedu say that Mrs. Cai is a husband-beating person. First, General Zhennan was defeated by her and then married Xiahou Yi again. Xiahou Yi was as thick as an ox. She died of tuberculosis after marrying her for only a few years. Who would dare to marry her again?"

Liu Jing laughed and asked again: "How is Liu Cong?"

"He is doing well now. He has a good relationship with Cao Pi and is often taken care of by Cao Pi. He was received twice this year and was named Duke Xiangyang. However, when His Highness saw him, he might not recognize him."

Liu Jing sneered in his heart, and was actually named Duke Xiangyang. This is Cao Cao disgusting himself.

Liu Jing smiled without saying a word: "It is said that he is very fat and can't even leave, that's it."

"That's true. I saw him for the first time a few years ago, but I just gained a little weight. But when I saw him again last month, I was shocked. It was terrible. Let me say that, I can't find the eyes on his face."

"Uncle met Liu Cong last month," Liu Jing asked with a faint smile.

Liu Zizhi said something wrong, and didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, he smiled bitterly: "A month ago, God recruited me into the palace. Just in the palace, I saw Liu Cong, and he was also inspired by the heaven and entered the palace."

Liu Jing did not speak, waiting for Liu to continue speaking, Liu had to say again: "There are currently two southern royal families in Yedu, one of which is the Jingxiang royal family with Liu Cong. When he surrendered to Cao Cao, more than a dozen royal families followed him, and I am another one. The emperor summoned us to discuss the sacrifices on the morning and day. The emperor suggested that the southern royal family unified the clan sacrifices in Luoyang ancestral temple this year."

Liu was really unable to say anything anymore. It was obvious that God was targeting Liu Jing. Even though he knew that Liu Jing could not go to Luoyang, he deliberately excluded Liu Jing. Liu can still recall it now. Liu Xie mentioned Liu Jing's deep hatred, even more hatred than Cao Cao.

Liu said again: "So my husband rushed back to Chang'an, hoping that Your Highness can hold a ancestral temple sacrifice in Chang'an and compete with the Luoyang tribe sacrifice."

A look of disdain flashed in Liu Jing's eyes and said lightly: "The Han army and the Huns spent too much money and the finances were tight. Therefore, I asked the governments in various parts of the Han Dynasty to practice rigorous economies and eliminate all expenses without any unnecessary expenses, and sacrifices are also included. Therefore, Chang'an will not hold any ancestral temple sacrifices. If everyone wants to go to Luoyang, I will not object."

Liu had to sigh helplessly. He felt that the reception was over, but he still had the most critical thing to say. What exactly is he in Han State?

After hesitating for a while, Liu Cai whispered: "My ministers are very popular in Yedu because the royal family thinks that I am the representative of His Highness. Maybe this is a misunderstanding. Should I clarify this to them?"

Liu retreated to advance, suggesting Liu Jing's importance, and also suggesting that he should give himself a position. Liu Jing understood what he meant and smiled and said, "I am determined to grant Uncle the Situ, but I am just a Han State and I am just a vassal state and have no right to grant the title of Minister. But since God admits that I am the same, the Han State can set up a junior teacher, a young tutor and a young guarantor. If Uncle does not dislike him, he will be the young guarantor."

Liu Daxi, although Shaobao is only an honorary position, his status is very high. With this identity, he is even more like a fish in Yedu. "I thank Your Highness for your conferment, and I will not disturb Your Highness, I will say goodbye."

Liu slowly retreated. Liu Jing looked at him and walked away, and then sneered. If it weren't for the need to win over the royal family, he wouldn't have given the position of protecting him to this person who only wants self-interest but never works hard for him.

At this time, a guard quickly walked forward and whispered to Liu Jing: "Your Highness, the King of Han, is from outside the palace, saying that he came from Kuaiji County and asked to see Your Highness under the order of He Qi."

Liu Jing was slightly stunned. He Qi actually sent an envoy. He pondered for a moment and said, "Take him in. Soon, the guard brought a thin middle-aged man in. The man stepped forward and knelt down, bowed and said, "Yu Wang came to see Your Highness under the order of General He Qi."

Liu Jing smiled and asked him to get up, and asked again: "Does sir have anything to do with Yu Zhongxiang of Kuaiji?"

"Report to Your Highness, Yu Fan is his brother."

Liu Jing nodded, "You are here on behalf of General He Qi."

"It was" Yu Wang took out a letter from his arms and handed it respectfully, "This is General He Qi's letter to His Highness. General He Qi is very willing to do his best to unify the world."

.............

In the afternoon, under the leadership of Honglu Liu Min, Chen Qun entered the Weiyang Palace in a single horse-drawn carriage. The carriage was walking in a mess on the snow-covered horse path. Chen Qun looked up at the magnificent halls and other buildings. He even saw a more majestic building, which was the Mingtang Piyong, which symbolized the imperial power and ritual system, which made Chen Qun feel very moved.

He did not think that Liu Jing was usurped and dared to use the Weiyang Palace. The Han Kingdom has occupied half of the country to this day. In the hearts of many people, it is the continuation of the Han Dynasty, but the real court is becoming increasingly declining. People talk more about the Wei Kingdom. In fact, when Cao Cao moved into the Tongque Palace, usurped and rebelled no longer became a verdict for people to attack.

Chen Qun's feeling was that he felt a sense of prosperity, and the majesty of the Han Dynasty emerged in his heart again. When he recalled the prosperous scenes he saw along the way, he vaguely felt that Chang'an should be his destination.

The carriage stopped in front of a smaller palace. Liu Min got off the carriage first and stepped forward and bowed, "Sir, please follow me."

Chen Qun looked up and saw a palace with simple and exquisite shape in front of him. The high steps were filled with mighty and majestic soldiers holding the sword. The plaque above the hall gate contained two seal characters: Chengming.

Chen Qun nodded secretly, it turned out that this was Chengming Palace, but Chengming Palace had been destroyed by war, so it should have been newly built, but the materials used did not look like they were newly built, which made Chen Qun feel a little strange.

Liu Min next to him explained with a smile: "After the Weiyang Palace was destroyed by the Green Forest and the Red Eyebrow Army during the Wang Mang period, there were basically only the broken palaces left. They have not been repaired for two years. Most of the palaces we see now were rebuilt by Mr. Jia. In order to save expenses, Mr. Jia demolished all the remaining palaces in Chang'an. The materials obtained were used to rebuild the Weiyang Palace. It took a whole year to restore the original Weiyang Palace."

Chen Qun nodded, "So that's it."

"Sir, please"

Chen Qun tidied up his clothes and followed Liu Min quickly up the high stairs. "His Royal Highness of the King of Han ordered the envoys of Wei to come in and see him." The guard shouted. Chen Qun, surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers, walked into the side hall.

On both sides of the side hall were more than a dozen senior officials of the Han Dynasty, five ministers and minister Yin Mo were all sitting, as well as military advisors Jia Xu, Fa Zheng and other important senior officials, and Han Wang Liu Jing sat directly above. He wore a flat crown and a golden king robe embroidered with a kirin, and was majestic.

Liu Min stepped forward and bowed: "Report to Your Highness, Mr. Chen, the envoy of Wei, has been brought here."

Chen Qun hurriedly stepped forward to pay a greeting, "Chief of Wei State Censor Chen Qun pays homage to His Highness the King of Han."

Liu Jing waved his hand slightly, "Censor Chen is exempted from gifts, please sit down."

A servant took the cushion, Chen Qun sat down, Liu Jing smiled and said, "Sir, we are meeting again."

"Yes, I am going to Han State several times, and every time the Han State surprised me, I am actually seeing Weiyang Palace again this time."

"Do you think the Han Dynasty is too luxurious and suspicious of being arrogance?" Liu Jing asked with a smile.

Chen Qun shook his head, "The kingly atmosphere is proud of the world, which allows Weichen to see the hope of the revival of the Han Dynasty."

"The world has not been unified yet, so why do you say that the Great Han Dynasty has overestimated the revival of the Censor Chen?"

Liu Jing smiled and asked, "I heard that Mr. Wei Lu is being presided over the compilation of Wei Lu, is it done?"

"There are still some time. If Your Highness does not dislike his humble minister's despicable skills, he will bring a draft of Wei Lu, so he can give him a look."

“I would like to appreciate Mr.’s writings.”

At this time, Sima Yi next to him smiled and said, "Is the visit of Censor Chen for the sake of Liu Cao's marriage?"

"It is precisely for this matter that Zhongda sent a bride gift last time when he was sent. The next step was to invite the marriage to greet him. The Wei-Min came this time mainly to discuss the ceremony of asking for the ceremony."

If it is just a marriage discussion, there is no need to receive such a grand reception in the hall. As long as both parties discuss it in the inn, both parties know that Chen Qunjue is not just for marriage, marriage is just an excuse, he has a more important mission.

However, Chen Qun did not mention it now, and Liu Jing did not ask much. He gave Jia Xu a wink. Jia Xu understood and said with a smile: "Please discuss it between the two parties. Our man's opinion is to start the spring next year. When all things are revived and life begins, it is best to make a marriage. I don't know what the woman's opinion is."

Chen Qun also smiled and said, "There is this meaning of Wei Gong. Spring is the most suitable, but it is not the beginning of spring. It is best to be in mid-Spring in April. First, the capital of Han has come to an end. Second, the busiest time of the court affairs in the year has passed. April is the most leisurely. I wonder if your highness can agree."

After Chen Qun finished speaking, there was a whisper in the hall. Jia Xu and Fa Zheng's faces changed slightly. The two looked at each other and they all understood that April was usually the day when war began. This was Cao Cao's special request to put the wedding date in April in order to delay the possible outbreak of Hefei.

At this time, Liu Jing said loudly: "Since Mr. Wei thinks April is suitable, then it's decided. We can choose an auspicious day in April to welcome the bride."

Chen Qun was overjoyed. This was actually a test by Cao Cao. If the Han army wanted to launch the Hefei Battle in April or May, then Liu Jing would never agree to welcome the bride at this time.

The approximate date of bride was set, followed by Cao Xian's identity. Of course, Cao Cao also knew that it was impossible for his daughter to become the princess of Han. Liu Jing had already established himself, and no one could shake the position of Tao's princess. Cao Cao could only settle for the second best and asked his daughter to be the concubine of the Prince of Han.

Liu Jingli is the same as the concubine, and the concubine is the Liangdi. There are usually two positions, among which Sun Shangxiang has occupied one, and there is still a vacant one, so naturally it is Cao Xian.

Although this is true, Chen Qun still wants to confirm, "The second is about the status of the daughter of Cao. Duke Wei respects the original wife of the King of Han, but also hopes that his daughter can be second only to him. I wonder if your highness can make it clear."

Without Liu Jing's answer, Sima Yi smiled and said, "We have discussed this issue and have already made a resolution. The concubine on the left of the King of Han is Sun, and the concubine on the right is still lacking. With the dignity of Duke Wei, his daughter is of course the right-side concubine."

The Han Dynasty regarded the left as the highest, the upper left and the lower right, and the left concubine was Sun Shangxiang. Although Cao Xian was Cao Cao's daughter, he could only be on the right, rather than, as Chen Qun said, second only to the princess, and was half a piece lower than the left concubine.

Chen Qun had no choice but to have a decision on the other party, so there was no room for bargaining. He had to nod, "I will tell you about your decision truthfully."

At this time, Liu Jing asked again with a smile: "Sir, Is there anything else to do when I traveled thousands of miles to Han?"

Chen Qun hurriedly bowed and said, "This time I went to Han State to visit. In addition to discussing the marriage, I also have two small things to discuss with Han State."

"Sir, please say it"

Chen Qun thought for a while and said with a smile: "The battle against the Huns ended, both sides won a great victory, and the people in the world were all excited, but the subsequent things were very complicated, and I believe the Han Dynasty also had a deep understanding."

Xu Shu laughed and said, "Sir, you are right, Ping Zhangtai does have a deep understanding."

"We have much easier time compared to the Han Dynasty, but when dealing with the Hun prisoners of war, we have problems. I hope your country can help us."

Liu Jing already understood what he was going to say, but he still said without saying a word: "Sir, please continue."
