Prince Han Sien

Chapter 112

This Liuhucheng was a person who was promoted by the emperor after a long investigation based on the merits of the soldiers in the western borders and the records of the Marquis Jing after Jingguo returned to Beijing.Liu Hucheng's appearance is the same as his name, a bit rough.

However, Liu Hucheng was a rough-and-ready person in his work. He acted very calmly on weekdays, and his soldiers were rewarded and punished. He was also very brave on the battlefield.

He also lived up to the favor of Yasukuni Marquis for his promotion. He has managed Xijiang quite well these years.When the people of Tianmenguan heard the name of General Liu Hucheng, they felt very safe.

When Bai Wenhan was summoned by Liu Hucheng, he was patrolling the top of the city wall.He and Bai Shu were hated by the emperor back then, and after being hit by a board, they left Beijing immediately.Although the executioners intentionally released the water that day, under the emperor's wrath, they couldn't show it too clearly. Thirty boards, he also bled.

In this way, the emperor's imperial decree still went to Xijiang immediately.Bai Wenhan is also a person who knows the heart of the emperor. If his father and the queen mother did such absurd things, if he were the emperor, everyone present would be speechless.

So the emperor asked them to leave the capital immediately. Although it seemed cold and ruthless, Bai Wenhan himself did not dare to stay in the capital for too long, fearing that something unpredictable would happen, so he and Bai Shu left as quickly as possible.

When Bai Shu left, his expression was in a daze, and he kept looking in the direction of the capital.Bai Wenhan was very worried about his physical condition at first, but Bai Shu is a master after all, and he recovered quickly from his injuries.On the contrary, it was him who, on the way to Xijiang, became overheated because of the rough treatment of his injuries. Fortunately, Baishu Xueyi was often injured in those years and knew the uses of some herbs, so he took him to a farmhouse for help. saved him.

After Bai Wenhan and Bai Shu arrived in Xijiang, Liu Hucheng personally came to greet them.After all, Bai Wenhan had the position of general in the beginning, Liu Hucheng thought for a long time, and directly gave Bai Wenhan the status of commander-in-chief.

The commander-in-chief is not as good as the general, but luckily the emperor doesn't like him, and he won't pursue it. From this, it can be seen that Liu Hucheng welcomes Bai Wenhan very much.

Of course, the Marquis of Jingguo and the crown prince delivered a letter to Xijiang later, asking Liu Hucheng not to be treated badly because of the emperor's belittling of Bai Wenhan, so these trivial matters will not be mentioned.

Bai Wenhan kept all these things in his heart.

Bai Wenhan hurried to see Liu Hucheng, but before he saluted, he was held back by Liu Hucheng.These years they have been getting along in this way, one salutes according to the rules, and the other does not give way.

Liu Hucheng didn't delay either. After grabbing the man and pressing him on the chair, he said directly: "The emperor sent an inspector to the western border, and they will arrive at Tianmen Pass in three days at the latest. One of the inspectors is the Fifth Prince Ji Huai. , one is... Han Sien, the eldest son of the Korean government."

Hearing the words of Han Sien, the eldest son of the Korean government, Bai Wenhan's face that had become more expressionless in recent years suddenly twitched, Liu Hucheng paused slightly, and continued: "The fifth prince Ji Huai once came to Tianmen. Guan, I know a little bit about him. I have heard rumors about this Korean prince, but I haven’t heard much about him in recent years. You had contact with him in the capital. He acted to the end. how?"

Bai Wenhan was silent for a long time, and finally he said sullenly: "Most of the rumors back then were true..."

"Really?" Liu Hucheng also showed a little surprise on his face: "Ugly face can scare children into tears, has no respect for the emperor, disregards the law and discipline, often refute the emperor's views, likes to ransack the house of those who don't like it, Don't give anyone face, offending him is tantamount to death? Are these true?"

Liu Hucheng thinks that he is not the kind of person who listens to rumors, and always feels that the things that spread to the border are too exaggerated.But when he got a definite answer from Bai Wenhan, he couldn't believe it, how could there be such a person who offended the emperor in the world, how could he still live well.

Bai Wenhan shook his head, and said: "That's not the case. His face is haggard due to illness, so it's not very scary. As for ignoring the emperor, he is upright and often impeached by ministers, but the emperor is very fond of him. What comes out is all criminal evidence..." Bai Wenhan was also very dumb when he said this, some words are said at the beginning and behind, but the connotation is still the same.

But that person is capable, no matter what the situation is, he can live well.After that accident that year, Han Sien disappeared in the rumors for three years, but when he appeared in front of everyone like this, he looked like he was very popular.

Liu Hucheng probably knew that this Korean prince was favored in front of the emperor, and his personality was very volatile and weird, and he seemed a little difficult to get along with.

Liu Hucheng thought for a while and said: "The inspectors have no rank, but they are sent by the emperor himself, and they themselves represent the emperor. Is the standard of our reception this time higher than that when the fifth prince came alone? "

Bai Wenhan said: "That's not necessary. After all, Shizi Han is also a person who can plead for the people, but his methods are a bit rough. The fifth prince is also here this time, so don't make him feel uncomfortable."

Liu Hucheng heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "I can rest assured that the son of the Duke's mansion has such a magnanimity. After all, the bosses at the border customs are very rough, and I will give orders in a while. Before leaving Xijiang, no one should be presumptuous."

Bai Wenhan nodded, Liu Hucheng also had a basis for what he said.There is competition everywhere. Liu Hucheng's ability to take charge of Xijiang is inseparable from his own efforts, and it is also inseparable from Yasukuni Hou's recommendation.

But there are always some people who are not convinced, thinking that Liu Hucheng's name is not worthy of the name, and feel that God has no eyes for not being able to soar into the sky.

Bai Wenhan saw that there was nothing wrong with Liu Hucheng, so he left.At this time, he was not in the mood to go on patrol, so he went back to his residence directly.

These front-line soldiers all have their own small houses in the towns of Tianmenguan, but they don't go back on weekdays, and they are all stationed in the barracks.

When Bai Wenhan returned to his residence, he saw Bai Shu squatting down on the ground looking at the ginseng in his hand, and there were many messy things under his feet.

Bai Shu can be regarded as a soldier in the barracks now, but he doesn't live with others on weekdays, which can be regarded as a little selfishness of Bai Wenhan.When Bai Shu had nothing to do, he would go to the various hills in the western border. Over the years, he had competed for the business of local people selling ginseng and other precious medicinal materials.

It caused the price of ginseng to rise continuously for three consecutive years. If Baishu's own martial arts skills were not strong, and Liu Hucheng secretly helped him, what he did would probably arouse the anger of the local people who sell medicinal materials for a living.

Bai Wenhan had already turned a blind eye to Bai Shu's stupid behavior, so he found a chair and sat down.

Bai Shu casually left the ginseng on the ground, stood up and said, "These are not in good condition, I will find some other ones when I find time."

In the past three years, Bai Shulian's body has been stretched, he has grown a lot taller, and his body is lean. His skin looks a bit rough due to the wind and sun all year round, but it is still fairer than ordinary people.Her cheeks were no longer fat like those of a baby back then, and her eyes were round and energetic. At first glance, she looked like a lively young man.

Bai Wenhan frowned and said with some displeasure: "In the past three years, the sum of the things you have sent to people can go from Xijiang to the capital, and I haven't seen any letters from people thanking you. I must have forgotten who you are for a long time."

Bai Shu shook his head, his big and round eyes were full of seriousness, and he said stubbornly: "Brother, Han Sien is not such a person. Besides, so what if he doesn't remember, he is not in good health, and if he lacks these things, I will If you can find it, you will naturally give it to him.”

Bai Wenhan was heartbroken by Bai Shu's dead-headedness and anger, and he didn't know what ecstasy drug Han Sien gave his younger brother to make Bai Shu think about it for so long.

Moreover, Bai Wenhan was a little worried about Bai Shu's state, and felt that he cared too much about Han Sien.It could be said that he was young back then, but now Bai Shu is not young, but Han Sien is still full of eyes.

If you say that before, Bai Wenhan thought about finding a knowledgeable wife for Bai Shu, but after Bai Jun's incident, Bai Wenhan had no idea about getting married, and he was simply letting go of Bai Shu's life.

He also thought about it, it's fine for Bai Shu to like anyone, even if it's a girl who butchers a pig, as long as he can treat her wholeheartedly.This family includes Shuanghe women, and even in Bai Wenhan's mind, Bai Shu can even form a bond with each other like those men at the border who really can't get married, and live like this for a lifetime.

Although it will get strange looks from others, as long as Bai Shu is willing, he agrees with both hands.

But everyone here does not have Han Sien's status.It's just that he had asked hintingly because Bai Shu had been thinking about the capital all the time. Bai Shu acted very dazed and ignorant, with pure and clean eyes.

Bai Wenhan didn't dare to ask too deeply, for he was afraid of pierce Bai Shu's ignorant state.

Thinking of this, Bai Wenhan's heart was filled with sorrow. This feeling of wanting to ask but not daring to ask had filled his heart for a long time.Thinking of this, he didn't bother to look at Bai Shu's face, he stood up and patted the dust off his body, and said, "Han Sien will be at the gate of heaven in three days, you should give these things to him in person. It’s just that he has a high status now, so he’s afraid that he won’t see you, a little soldier.”

After Bai Wenhan finished speaking, what he saw was Bai Shu's shocked face. He was even more frustrated, so he left directly, thinking that he should go to patrol.

After Bai Shu and Bai Wenhan left, the shock on his face was gradually replaced by extreme joy.When Bai Shu thought of Han Sien's appearance, what impressed him most was Han Sien's indifferent eyes.

He stroked his beating heart with his rough hands, and then smiled, his brows and eyes were curved, and his cheeks were faintly fleshy.

In fact, Bai Shu is also a cold-hearted person. When he came to Xijiang for a long time, he still dreamed of Han Sien, not because of anything else, but because he knelt on the ground and begged the emperor for his and Bai Wenhan's lives. look.

Bai Shu didn't see the scene in the hall at that time, but he could hear it.He knew that Han Si'en was actually very proud, and he didn't like to kneel down, let alone beg for mercy.But that time, Han Si'en knelt down to the emperor for a long time for him and Bai Wenhan, and it was also the first time that he begged in a tone of voice.

Bai Wenhan always felt that he cared too much about Han Sien, but Bai Shu thought that in this world, besides Bai Wenhan, only Han Sien cared so much about him. He didn't even have his own biological father, so he would naturally He took Han Sien to heart.

After a long time, Bai Shu put away the smile on his face. He looked at the back of Bai Wenhan leaving, and his expression paused slightly.Finally, he tidied up the things on the ground and left.

Bai Shu thought that he would give Han Sien a meeting gift.

The three days are neither long nor short. Some people feel that these three days are very difficult, but some people feel that these three days pass quickly.

When the guard of honor of Han Sien and Ji Huai arrived at Tianmen Pass, Liu Hucheng personally came to greet him. This time, he specially asked Bai Wenhan to come with him, just thinking of him and that Han Si who played cards unreasonably. In the end, En knew each other. In case of any accident, there should be someone who can talk.

As for Bai Shu, his status was too low to come here.

When Han Si'en came out of the sedan chair wearing a mask, everyone's eyes were on him. Han Si'en's gaze casually passed over everyone's faces, and he didn't pause when he saw Bai Wenhan.

It seemed extraordinarily careless and arrogant.

Liu Hucheng was fine, he had already made preparations in his heart, although he felt a little surprised, but he could still bear it.

But there are always people who feel that they can't see it. Zhou Ran, the deputy general of Xijiang, felt that he was underestimated by Han Si'en, and he was very upset.

His status was slightly lower than Liu Hucheng's, and he dared to rush on the battlefield, shed blood, saved people, and his words in the army were extremely important.

At this time, seeing that everyone was silent, he laughed loudly and said heartily: "Inspector Han, the customs here are full of rough men, who are exposed to the wind and sun every day, and they don't look good. Your mask Or take it down, even if it is a black spot, no one will laugh at it."

As soon as Zhou Ran said this, Liu Hucheng frowned. He instinctively stepped forward to clean up the mess for Zhou Ran, but he didn't wait for him to speak.

Han Si'en had already sneered, he snapped his fingers, and said lightly: "The injury on my face has not healed, and I didn't take off the mask in front of the emperor. If this lord wants to see it, it's not impossible...or else , the officer will show you now?"

When Han Sien said this, his words were extremely arrogant. The implication was that this is what I look like in front of the emperor. Who are you, older than the emperor?

Zhou Ran's face turned red instantly, he looked at Han Si'en, he didn't dare to say what he wanted to see, but he couldn't take back what he said for the sake of face, he looked a little embarrassed.

"Forgive me, Mr. Han. Vice General Zhou didn't mean that." Seeing the situation, Liu Hucheng hurriedly opened his mouth to round up his words: "Vice General Zhou is used to killing enemies on the battlefield. My lord has a wound on his face, and he dare not compare himself with the emperor. Don't take it to heart, Lord Han, I will punish him for this..."

"No need." Han Si'en lazily considered Liu Hucheng's insincere words: "General Liu loves his soldiers and I admire them, but I just came to this western border and punished the soldiers who guarded the western border. I thought this officer ignored the lives of border guards, so forget it."

Liu Hucheng: "..." He did mean that. Although Zhou Ran often disagreed with him, he was a good fighter in war, so he naturally wanted to pull it off.

But it’s okay, civil servants keep their words in their hearts, and they talk around the bush. It’s rare to be so straightforward. Is it true that the Korean prince is different?

Ji Huai watched the changing faces of the soldiers in the western border, and raised his eyebrows calmly. He really didn't expect that Han Sien would offend all the soldiers, big and small, just after he arrived at the border.

Is this a chance for him to gain favor in front of everyone?

@@

When the atmosphere was awkward, Bai Wenhan took a step forward against everyone's gaze, and whispered to Liu Hucheng, "General, it's windy outside Tianmen Pass, let's go into the city."

Liu Hucheng said: "Fifth Prince, Mr. Han, please."

Han Sien calmly followed Liu Hucheng's gesture and walked in the front, followed by Ji Huai who looked a little helpless behind him.

Everyone looked at each other at the current situation, and they all had some judgments about the situation in their hearts.

After placing the people at Tianmenguan, Liu Hucheng took a group of people away on the grounds that he would welcome them at night.

After Liu Hucheng left, Han Sien went back to his room without saying hello to Ji Huai.After bumping around for so long, the road was full of dust and dust, and finally reached the boundary, he wanted to take a good rest.

Han Si'en had someone prepare hot water, and after dismissing everyone, he took off the mask and put it in the water, and yawned after soaking in the hot water.

Han Sien closed his eyes, breathed lightly, and his mind went blank.

After burning an incense stick, Han Si'en suddenly opened his eyes, at the same time, a person jumped in from the window and closed the window quietly.

Turning around, the visitor and Han Sien in the bathtub looked at each other.The person who likes to jump out of windows is naturally Bai Shu.

He didn't expect that the person breathing so lightly wasn't asleep, but was taking a bath, and he subconsciously let out a sound.
