three kings

Chapter 10 Eunuch Zhang Rang
Sun Zhe is in a very bad mood today. The great man is in danger, the people are not living in peace, the plague is everywhere, and the treasury is very empty.However, Liu Hong was still working hard to carry out wild hunting, and he didn't care about how much food a wild hunting would cost.

Although he tried his best to stop it, but there was no manpower, the eunuch Zhang Rang joined the party and tried his best to persuade the emperor to hunt.

Liu Hong was also the one who was very happy, so he couldn't help the temptation, so he agreed to the request.

Once the emperor opened his mouth, he couldn't change it.

Sun Zhe was disappointed and didn't want to participate, but his good friend Wang Yun reminded him, saying: "Brother Bo Yuan, Zhang Rang has ulterior motives and deep scheming. They rashly persuaded the emperor to hunt this time and there must be a cat hiding in it. If brother is not here, In case Zhang gave up some tricks, the emperor will definitely not listen to us."

In terms of talent and learning, Wang Yun is far inferior to Sun Zhe, but when it comes to scheming, the pedantic Sun Zhe is far from Wang Yun's opponent.Wang Yun knew that Zhang Rang was so courteous for nothing, so he must have his thoughts.

Sun Zhe was not a fool either, and after hearing this, he also took it for granted, so he followed.But he didn't want to see his unsatisfactory child on the hunting ground, which almost made him angry.

It's not just once or twice that Sun Can flees to play, he naturally understands why Sun Can appears here.

And Sun Can couldn't help but let out an exclamation because he saw his father by accident. When he yelled, he realized it and hurriedly blocked his mouth.

At this time, it was already too late, and no one dared to make any noise in front of the emperor, so although the exclamation was not loud, it still attracted the attention of the public.

A sharp-mouthed eunuch shouted sharply: "Who is running rampant in front of His Majesty?"

Liu Hong also noticed Sun Can and asked, "Huangfu Aiqing, who is beside you?"

Huangfu Song said: "This is Mr. Taifu's young master."

Sun Can reluctantly stepped forward to pay respects.

Liu Hong gestured to Sun Zhe.

Sun Zhe glared at Sun Can and said, "It's really a bitch."

Liu Hong laughed loudly: "It turns out that Lin'er, my benefactor, come up and talk." When he saw Sun Zhe's appearance, he immediately thought of Sun Zhe's stern appearance when he was a son of Pangzhiting Hou of the royal family, and thought to himself: "This child must have offended his teacher somewhere." Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with Sun Zhe's sternness, Liu Hong lost his father since childhood and lacked his father's care, and Sun Zhe's sternness made him feel like a father.Therefore, no matter how Zhang Rang suppressed Sun Zhe, he could not shake Sun Zhe's position in the court.

Also because of the existence of Sun Zhe, Liu Hong, who lacks paternal love, did not recognize eunuch Zhang Rang as "father" as lowly as in history.

Therefore, Liu Hong still respects Sun Zhe very much. Even after becoming the emperor, he still treats Sun Zhe as a mentor.Seeing Sun Zhe's son below, he gave Sun Zhe enough face and let him take the stage.

However, Sun Can did not accept his love, and complained even more about Liu Hong's request. What he hopes most at this moment is not that Liu Hong asks him to come forward, but to drive him out of the hunting ground and stay away from this place of right and wrong. Bad luck.

However, since the incident had already happened, it was useless to run away. He simply put his heart on the line and walked to the stage openly, with the courage of "the wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man will never return when he is gone".

On the stage, I saw Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. Seeing Liu Hong's pale complexion, thin body, and frail appearance, I couldn't help being disappointed.I thought: "So the emperor looks like this, doesn't it look like anything special?"

While Sun Can was looking at Emperor Han Ling, Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of Han, was also looking at him. Seeing that Sun Can was so extraordinary, he couldn't help feeling fond of him, and said with a smile: "My teacher gave birth to a good child, this son Fengshen Junlang, In the future, he will definitely be the pillar of my man."

Sun Zhe snorted coldly and didn't speak.

Liu Hong saw the embarrassment on Sun Can's face, and when he saw Sun Can in casual clothes, he immediately understood the key point.Sun Zhe's pedantry, he has long experienced, just imagine how a pedantic literati would let his children play guns and clubs.Seeing Sun Can's fearful appearance, a feeling of sympathy and sympathy arose in his heart.

A eunuch with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks played at this moment: "Your Majesty, it's almost time, and the competition can begin."

Liu Hong asked Sun Can to stand by his side, motioned to the eunuch, and said, "Zhang Rang, go and give the order!"

Only then did Sun Can know that the eunuch with the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was actually the eunuch Zhang that his father hated so much.Not long after Zhang Rang left, he returned to the stage.

At this time, a group of people rushed towards the high platform with about fifty prey.

Liu Hong took the golden arrow from Zhang Rang, pulled up the carved bow, and shot at an elk. The golden arrow turned into a rainbow and went straight into the forehead of the rabbit beside the elk.

The officials cheered loudly: "Your Majesty has shot, Your Majesty has shot!" All the officials and generals rushed to Liu Hong happily, shouting "Long live" repeatedly.

Among them, Zhang Rang was the most exaggerated, almost jumping up.

Sun Can muttered to himself: "It's not that your lifeblood can grow back, why are you so happy?"

Liu Hong blushed slightly, and immediately pretended that my arrow skills were very good, for fear that others would know that his real target was the elk.

For this, Sun Can was very disdainful. With such a shooting method, he can hit a hundred shots at the age of 13. What is there to praise.

At this time, Zhang Rang suddenly suggested: "Your Majesty, now that my new generation of big men are here, why not let them compete in archery to see the pride of my new generation."

Liu Hongzheng felt bored and thought about having fun, seeing Zhang Rang being so knowledgeable, he nodded his approval immediately.

Captain Jian Shuo of Changshui said: "The minister selected eight rookies from the army. .”

Liu Hong thought for a while, and said: "Yuan Shao, Bao Hong, Cao Cao, Zhao Rong and others have all been officials by my side, but who is Zhang Sheng?"

Zhang Rang said, "It's my nephew from afar, who is proficient in everything."

Zhang Rang knew Liu Hong's temper clearly. If he raised it normally, Liu Hong might ignore it, but at this time, Liu Hong would never object.Because Liu Hong likes to have fun, this competition is for him to have fun, one more person means more fun, how could Liu Hong disagree.

Sensitive Wang Yun immediately smelled a hint of conspiracy, and said, "Changshi Zhang won't use his power for personal gain, right?"
