Three Kingdoms: Ancestors of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 247 Poetry and Marriage

In 229 A.D., the seventh year of Jianxing, Emperor Liu Chan of the Han Dynasty, June.

Hanzhong Dudufu, Liangshan, Yanji.

It was dusk, and the blood-red sunset was like a bowl of blood spilling red on half the sky.Between them, a new moon is quietly rising.

After Liu Chan finished his meal (dinner), he thought of the beauty of the sunset, so he couldn't help taking a walk in Liangshan.Dong Yun and Huo Yi also followed the emperor of the Han Dynasty after a long absence to express their feelings.

Liu Chan walked to the middle of the mountain with his hands behind his back, and when he was twenty or thirty steps away from the long pavilion, he found a woman painting in the pavilion, accompanied by a maid and guarded by her.

Liu Chan couldn't help being curious, and asked others, "Whose family is this?"

The attendant looked at it for a while, then shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know, I'll go and ask."

Liu Chan waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need, other people are painting, so don't spoil people's interest."

After finishing speaking, Liu Chan led the crowd up the mountain path, getting closer and closer.

Seeing Liu Chan from a distance, the trilogy members quickly knelt down and shouted, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

As soon as this remark came out, the animator startled the girl, turned her head to look at it, stopped writing and saluted.

Liu Chan was a little surprised, a little curious about how the attendant recognized him, and asked, "Who are you waiting for?"

The head of the trilogy knelt down, cupped his hands and said: "We are the trilogy of General You (Wu Ban)."

Liu Chan nodded. As an uncle of the country, Wu Ban often saw him, and he also hunted with Wu Ban near Chengdu, so it was reasonable to know each other.

But I have never heard of it, there is a daughter in Wu Ban's family!Could it be...

The director of Buqu thought that Liu Chan was displeased with him and others coming to the mountain, so he said respectfully: "I will protect Miss Xiahou's painting, if you disturb your majesty, please forgive me."

Hearing this, Liu Chan became more and more curious, and said gently: "Get up, it's okay, Liangshan is not a forbidden place."

After finishing speaking, Liu Chan took a few glances at Miss Xiahou. Although she couldn't see the face behind the veil, she could vaguely sense her extraordinary color and elegant temperament. Perhaps only pine and bamboo could make friends.

Liu Chan realized that he was a little rude, recovered his senses, and asked, "I don't know what relationship you have with my mother-in-law (Zhang Fei's wife)?"

Under the veil, Xia Houhui was also secretly looking at Liu Chan, only to feel that the emperor in front of him had a fair face, handsome features, more than eight feet tall, a handsome figure, and bright eyes.Although the temperament is elegant and gentle, but the imposing manner is introverted, just like the unfathomable heights of Mount Tai, which cannot be underestimated.

Xia Houhui thought to himself: This man is worthy of being the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and Master Sima can't compare with him!

Listening to Liu Chan's question, Xiahouhui pursed her red lips and said, "The woman is Mrs. Xiahou's family, the daughter of Xiahoushang, and the daughter of the township owner of Deyang. I met General Wu on Nanxiang County Road and was invited by him to enter Shu. Visit Madam Xiahou too!"

Hearing this, Liu Chan raised the corner of his mouth lightly, feeling that the girl in front of him was so cute, it seemed that this was the Xiahouhui that Wu Ban was talking about.

Liu Chan looked at the scarf on the table and asked, "I don't know Miss Xiahou, but can I give you a reward for the masterpiece?"

Xiahou Huiyu squeezed the handkerchief in her sleeve tightly, and said in a low voice: "The woman draws carelessly, please don't laugh, Your Majesty!"

Liu Chan took a step forward, looked at the picture of sunset on the silk scarf, and couldn't help but praised: "Miss Xiahou's picture of sunset is very skillful in chapping. There is reality in the composition of the picture, and there is fiction in the reality. It should be taught by a master."

Xia Houhui blushed slightly, and replied respectfully: "The teacher of the women is the governor of Yongzhou."

Liu Chan was a little stunned. Xu Miao of Cao Wei was good at painting, and his painting skills could reach the realm of fake and real.

Liu Chan saw that there was a signature on the left side, but it was suppressed by the wooden case, so he stretched out his hand and gently pushed it away, only to see the words Xiahou Yuanrong and so on.

Seeing Liu Chan looking at the left side of the scarf, Xia Houhui knew his name, his cheeks became hot, and he hung his head in silence.

In ancient times, all women were anonymous, and women's names were only disclosed in the boudoir.

In history, the names and characters of Empress Dugu and Empress Changsun have not been recorded in the literature.The same is true for Wu Zetian, "Wu Zhao" is her own name, and "Zetian" is the honorary title given to her son after restoration.

As the emperor's friend, Huo Yi was very considerate and waved his hand to signal everyone to retreat and stay away from the pavilion.

Huo Yi saw that everyone was far away, only Dong Yun stood still, slightly removed the corner of his clothes, and whispered in his ear: "Xiu Zhao is rude!"

Dong Yun glanced at Huo Yi, sighed, and left with him.

Seeing everyone leaving, Xia Houhui couldn't help but let out a long breath, feeling much less stressed.

Liu Chan turned his head and saw the crowd leaving. He smiled softly and said, "The "Poetry" says: "The son's clearness, Yang Qi's face is also. The appearance is like a person, and the state is also beautiful (Note [-]). This poem is very beautiful!"

Hearing this, Xia Houhui's face became even more blushing, and his ears felt hot. Unexpectedly, Liu Chan found the source of her words and used poems as a metaphor for himself.

Yuan: The Yuan of the state.Rong: Yang Qi's face is also beautiful, and Yan Tongrong is also!
However, Xia Houhui, who was quite knowledgeable, calmed down a little, and said displeasedly: "The poem also says: A mouse has a body, but a human is rude."

After finishing speaking, Xia Houhui regretted a little, worried that his words would make Liu Chan angry.

Xia Houhui was using the poems in the Book of Songs, which is also in the wind, to imply that Liu Chan is rude, and he said it when he saw his boudoir name.

As a student of scriptures, Liu Chan, of course, knew its meaning, chuckled lightly, and said teasingly, ""Baihu Tongyi·Admonition" says: This is a poem about a wife admonishing her husband."

The self-proclaimed Xia Houhui was instantly too shy to speak, and her cheeks were on fire under the veil.

Liu Chan looked at her blushing face, his heart fluttered, and then he said meaningfully: "How about Fake? You can't beat the axe."

Xiahou Huiyu pinched the handkerchief into a ball, remained silent for a long time, then lightly parted her lips and said, "Fake Fake, it's not far away."

Liu Chan and Xiahou Huiying's poems from "Fake" (Note ②) are poems of marriage proposal.

How about Vaco?Bandit ax can't.Meaning: How about cutting wood for an ax handle?Can't do it without an axe.

Vaco Vaco is not far away.Meaning: Logging as a handle, logging as a handle, the imitation is not far away.

The metaphor is that Liu Chan proposed to Xia Houhui and asked Xia Houhui how to marry her.Xiahou Hui replied that Liu Chan had to follow the rules of marriage before he could marry himself.

Hearing this, Liu Chan was a little excited, and immediately replied: "Scattered water lilies, flow from left to right."

This poem comes from "Guan Ju", which is a metaphor that Liu Chan will work hard to pursue Xia Houhui and promise to be good to her in the future.

Xia Houhui turned around, looked down at the hem of the skirt, and remained silent.

Seeing this, Liu Chan smiled slightly, but said nothing, took off the jade pendant around his waist and put it on the case, took the towel and silk, turned and left the pavilion.

A gentleman has no reason, and jade does not go away.Jade is a symbol of identity and power. Liu Chan exchanged jade for paintings, expressing his thoughts very clearly.

On the way, Dong Yun hesitated for a while, and said: "Han and Wei enemies, please be careful, Your Majesty."

Liu Chan glanced at Dong Yun, and said lightly: "This is my family's business, I hope Hugh will make it clear. As for the enemies of the Han and Wei Dynasties, don't you know Mrs. Xiahou?"

Dong Yun was speechless, clasped his hands and said: promise! "

In the evening, the sun was setting and the pavilion was quiet.

Sitting in the pavilion, Xia Houhui held Liu Chan's jade pendant in his hand, and sighed inwardly as he looked at the receding figure in the distance.

It is not easy to marry a beloved in a foreign country.If it was a bad person, would he respond with the Book of Songs like this?

What's more, he is still the emperor of the Han Dynasty. The emperor has an open-minded personality, gentle as jade, and a good-looking talent, but he is only an enemy of the Han and Wei dynasties!
May he be with me forever! ——
①Translation: bright eyes, kind eyes, long eyebrows, beautiful appearance, broad forehead.The appearance is flirtatious and charming, and the beauty of the city and the country!
② "Fake": How about Fake?Bandit ax can't.How about getting a wife?Bandits are not allowed.Vaco Vaco is not far away.My son, Yandou Youjian.
