After returning to the palace, he paid no attention to the government affairs and did not see the ministers. The first thing Liu Chengyou did was to go to the Renming Palace to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager Li.
"Get up quickly!" Seeing Liu Chengyou saluting solemnly, Mrs. Li hurriedly helped him up and looked at him angrily. She glanced around Liu Chengyou and said, "It'll be good when you come back."
However, he began to teach him a lesson: "When you first took over the throne, you ignored the opposition of the ministers and put down the state affairs and patrolled Luoyang westward. You were too willful. As the emperor, you shoulder the responsibility of the country. Don't be so reckless next time. You don't When I am in Beijing and my mother is in the palace, my heart is on my lips and I am thinking about her endlessly."
"My dear mother, I'm thinking about you." Liu Chengyou personally helped Mr. Li sit down and talked, and said: "Since I am the emperor, I care about hundreds of millions of people. If you manage and govern the country without taking into account the sentiments of the people, you are incompetent. During this western tour, we made a lot of achievements, which will be of great benefit to the governance of the country..."
"You have your own opinion, but I can't convince you." Seeing that Liu Chengyou seemed to be talking at length, Li raised her hand to stop him and said, "I can't interfere with the affairs of the government. I know you have the ambition to strengthen the country and govern it. It reminds you not to rush into anything."
His mother's words were ringing in his ears, and while Liu Chengyou agreed, he couldn't help but think about it. It seemed that the Li family had also received a lot of news from the outer court. His uncle was really diligent in inviting favors from the harem. However, he Since Fu succeeded to the throne, he has been stable enough. Could it be that he is in a hurry?
Seeing that Liu Chengyou was a little distracted, Mrs. Li shook her head slightly and said warmly: "You must have worked hard when you returned from your western tour. You don't need to accompany me. Go and rest. Well... you should also go see Shu I’m pregnant, she’s about to give birth.”
"yes."
Even if Li didn't mention it, Liu Chengyou still planned to visit Geng. He still had some feelings for Geng. After all, she was the woman who had been with him for the longest time. She had always been well-behaved and docile, not to mention she was pregnant with a dragon seed.
Liu Chengyou suddenly visited Cuifang Palace, which surprised Geng and the palace attendants. Seeing the palace attendants busying themselves, Liu Chengyou hurriedly spoke up to prevent them from greeting them.
"Two... official family." Seeing Liu Chengyou, Geng called out weakly, with tears in her beautiful eyes, looking completely unconfident and tender.
Liu Chengyou looked around at Mrs. Geng. This woman was a little fat, and her mood seemed a little depressed. There was sadness between her eyebrows. He stared at her belly, which was as big as a cold melon, and it was difficult to stand. Mr. Geng was going I was conceived in the seventh month of the year and am now almost nine months old.
"You should call me Erlang." Liu Chengyou stepped forward, hugged Geng and sat down, and said softly.
"Guan Jia." Leaning gently on Liu Chengyou, Geng sniffed the scent of Liu Chengyou. After all, he could not say the word "Erlang".
"You are weak and need to be careful." The words of comfort came from Liu Chengyou's mouth, which seemed a bit dry. However, Geng's reaction was obvious and he leaned closer to Liu Chengyou's chest.
Liu Chengyou held her hand, sighed, and said warmly: "In the past few months, I have been busy with state affairs and have no time to take care of the harem, but I have neglected you."
Hearing this, Mrs. Geng burst into tears: "I understand, I have nothing else to ask for. As long as the officials still care about me, I will be satisfied..."
Seeing this, Liu Chengyou felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. He knew that Mrs. Geng was as tender as a flower, but how could he have imagined that she was so fragile? Looking at her smiling face with pear blossoms in the rain, he could only blame it on her pregnancy, especially when she was close to childbirth. During this period, it is said that the woman was in a bad mood at this stage, but Mr. Geng did not dare to lose his temper with Liu Chengyou.
Liu Chengyou helped her up, reached out and wiped away the tears of this delicate flower with his unfamiliar techniques, and said: "I will spend more time with you from now on. Don't cry, take good care of yourself, and give me a prince!"
"Well..." Geng responded in a low voice and stopped crying.
After staying at Geng's place for half an hour, Liu Chengyou returned to Chui Gong Hall. Outside the hall, a slightly familiar figure was already waiting.
"I see the official's house!" When the time came, he immediately came forward to pay homage, but his attitude and tone were not respectful enough.
Liu Chengyou looked at this man with an impetuous temperament a little surprised, and called out calmly: "Uncle."
"Why is uncle looking for me? Why didn't you send someone to inform me?" Liu Chengyou asked as he entered the hall and took a seat.
Li Ye raised his eyebrows, looking a little excited, and said to Liu Chengyou: "The official family is finally back. If it is later, I'm afraid things will change in Tokyo!"
Li Ye's expression was full of anger. When he opened his mouth, he made the matter very serious and sensational, in an attempt to arouse Liu Chengyou's vigilance.
"What happened to make uncle so angry?" Liu Chengyou simply cooperated and asked.
After hearing the question, Li Ye said directly: "The officials are patrolling the west. I'm afraid they don't know the situation in Tokyo. If the officials are not around, Yang Bin will seize power in the court and will not tolerate the opinions of others. The Guangzheng Palace is not allowed to discuss matters. I am speaking. As the envoy of the South Court of Xuanhui, I am in charge of all the envoys in the department, but he actually collaborated with Hu Yanke, the envoy of the North Court, to restrict my duties and powers and prevent me from taking care of things."
"He is so arrogant and slow that even the Queen Mother doesn't take him seriously. When the late Emperor was here, Yang Bin became domineering and opposed the housekeeper. Now, it has become even more serious, and the officials must be vigilant. Otherwise, if things go on like this, power will fall to the side. Completely under his control..."
Li Ye, obviously here to complain, desperately applied eye drops to Yang Xing in front of Liu Chengyou.
Liu Chengyou glanced at Li Ye, his expression became cold and he frowned.
In his heart, he sighed silently. It is estimated that the original owner was whispered in his ears by close ministers such as Li Ye, and he wanted to seize power with murderous intentions, and finally ended up with the end of his life and the destruction of his country.
Liu Chengyou only listened to 30% of what Li Ye said. During Liu Chengyou's absence, Yang Bin led the ministers to stabilize the court situation, which was quite conscientious. Although the government came from one side, the government was messy, and there were many things to deal with. Discuss. With the current situation of the Han Dynasty, there is no soil for Yang Fu to have autocratic power, and there is no reason for him to be so arrogant.
Most of Li Ye's accusations were exaggerations, but he was bullied miserably by Yang Fan. From the beginning, Yang Fan did not agree with Li Ye's appointment as the imperial envoy, and his transfer to the throne was even more serious. To despise him is to look down upon him. When he was in charge of state affairs, Li Ye was of course nothing but a loser in front of him, and he was not allowed to interfere in state affairs at all.
And Li Ye, who had always been loved by the Queen Mother, could not bear the grievance, so he complained to Li. However, it was not easy for Li to intervene in the affairs of the outer court, so he just kept silent and asked Li Ye to keep a low profile. The biggest backer was not strong enough, and Li Ye also We can only hold it in until Liu Chengyou returns to Beijing.
In fact, Li Ye misunderstood Yang Bin a little. His authority was infringed upon, but it was actually because of Liu Chengyou's secret instructions. Liu Chengyou himself did not trust Li Ye, and took him as the envoy of Xuanhui Academy, which was only for the Li family. face.
Of course, during Liu Chengyou's tour to the west, the Tokyo court was indeed not very stable. Things in Xijing also affected the political situation in Tokyo. News continued to come from the east, especially after Su Fengji was imprisoned, people's hearts began to fluctuate.
And Yang Bin did try to seize power. He and Su Fengji had always been at odds with each other. Su Fengji's downfall made him surprised and secretly happy. In Tokyo, a large number of officials were dismissed and investigated, all of whom were Su Fengji's party members. Those people , most of the party affiliated Su Fengji are bad officials.
In fact, it was Liu Chengyou who planned to clean up, and Yang Bin did it ahead of Liu Chengyou, saving him a lot of effort and adding some "income" to the treasury. Su Fengji had sold his official position before, and those who could afford it would always have some property. of.
At the same time, it also attracted a wave of hatred. If Shi Hongzhao and Yang Bin didn't have the previous conflicts, it would be really good to do something to attract hatred.
Regarding Li Ye's slander in front of him this time, Liu Chengyou's attitude was quite relaxed, but he still tried to appease him with a sullen face: "Uncle has been wronged. Let's go back and rest first. I will reprimand Yang Bin. "
"If the officials don't rectify Yang Bin, the country will be ruined! Please make plans early." Hearing this, Li Ye was a little dissatisfied and asked immediately.
Seeing this, Liu Chengyou was also a little impatient. He raised his hand to stop him and said in a deep voice: "Uncle. Yang Xiang is the prime minister of the country. How can I easily accuse him because of my words?"
"Su Fengji is also a prime minister, so he's going to jail as well..." Li Ye muttered.
Hearing this, Liu Chengyou frowned and stared at him.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense. Li Ye raised his eyes to look at Liu Chengyou, but seeing his sinister eyes, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. He finally became more honest and lowered his head slightly.
After heaving a sigh of relief, Liu Chengyou said: "My uncle is my relative. When you are in power, you and your officials should support each other and take care of the country and the country together!"

"yes!"
Unable to achieve his goal, Li Ye was very disappointed and resigned in disinterest. Without thinking, he headed towards Renming Hall again.
On Liu Chengyou's side, he was still thinking about the situation in the DPRK. After hearing the news there, his face felt a little unnatural.
"This person always goes to the Queen Mother, it's really annoying." Liu Chengyou muttered secretly, his tone was a little cold.
Li was really a wise queen mother and a loving mother, and Liu Chengyou respected her a lot. However, thinking of her partiality for Li Ye, Liu Chengyou could not help but feel a little "scared".
He has been developing this filial character for a long time, and I really don’t hope that one day, this incompetent uncle will affect the relationship between mother and son.
