Chapter 363 Enthronement (1)(1/2)
Chapter 363 Ascend the throne (I)
With the breaking of the war in Hebei, the State of Chu and Sanqi started a war, and Liu Kan suddenly became relaxed.
Even when Shujian was in charge of the military affairs of the Yuezhi Kingdom, he didn't take it seriously. Everything was developed according to the situation that had been set. The Yuezhi Kingdom seemed powerful, but in fact it was under his control. Three years ago, Chen Ping's pseudonym of Yuan Ping and spent tens of thousands of dollars to not only gain a foothold in the northern Xinjiang, but to some extent, he had controlled the situation in the Yuezhi Kingdom and provoked a series of chaos in the northern Xinjiang.
Therefore, although the Yuezhi Kingdom is vast, it is just a paper tiger with strong outside and strong inside.
After returning to Xianyang, Liu Kan kept Zhang Liang's suggestion in mind.
After observing Lu Wan in secret for a while, he talked with Xiao He and decided to follow Zhang Liang's advice and send Lu Wan to surrender to Lu Chen.
Since Lu Wan surrendered, she has been a human being with her tail between her legs.
He also knew very well that his situation in Xianyang was not good. Although Xiao He was surrounded, there were also Jade Lu and Mrs. Kan on Xiao He.
The old lady and Lu Ge didn't like to participate in political affairs, so they didn't make things difficult for Lu Wan.
But if the two of them are not embarrassed, it does not mean that others are not embarrassed.
And the person who made Lu Wan's head difficult was not someone else, but Liu Xin.
Liu Ju and Liu Xin and his son came to Xianyang with the old lady. As Liu Kan's brother, although Liu Ju did not have any official position, he had an extremely transcendent position. Liu Xin, as Liu Kan's nephew, has been in Sichuan for many years and has a high prestige among the generals of Bashu. Now he is the general of guard and is responsible for protecting the Xianyang Palace. He has three thousand strong soldiers under his command, all of whom are brave and good at fighting.
Even when he was the Xianyang Order, Lieutenant Ji Bu turned a blind eye to Liu Xin.
Speaking of which, Liu Xin's current status in Xianyang can be called the number one overlord in Xianyang. However, he was not domineering. In addition to causing trouble for Lu Wan, most of the time, Liu Xin stayed in the Xianyang Palace, or went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Liu Ju to practice martial arts.
Liu Xin disliked Lu Wan!
There are definitely historical factors in this.
Back then, Liu Bang, the county magistrate of Pei Li Fang, and the great-grandmother of Chu, Yong Chi, joined forces to try to conspire with Liu Kan.
However, Liu Kan found Peng Yue, who was a thief in Juyeze at that time, and used a thunderous blow to defeat the conspiracy of the three. After Liu Bang, Lu Wan and Fan Kuai escaped from Pei County, he tried to attack Mrs. Kan, who lived in Sishui Pavilion at the time. Liu Xin's mother Wang Ji was almost bullied by Lu Wan. After Liu Xin discovered it, she took anger and almost killed Lu Wan. Later, Lu Wan and Liu Bang escaped, but Liu Xin remembered Lu Wan. Even though time had passed and many years had passed, Liu Xin still had a strong hostility towards Lu Wan.
Lu Wan was very embarrassed...
It’s easy for others to say something, but Xiao He can stop him.
But Liu Xin is different. There are only a handful of people in the world who can talk about him, and there will be no more than ten people. Among these people, Mrs. Kan, Lu Ge and Wang Ji will not speak easily; Baman can also control Liu Xin, but Baman knows the grudges in it, so he doesn't stop it.
Liu Dadayan is a martial arts fanatic.
Now I have become obsessed with growing flowers and plants, and I ignore this at all.
Liu Kan was in Mianchi and was not very clear about Lu Wan's situation. He even didn't know much about him when he returned to Xianyang for a long time.
Lu Wan is just a small person.
Who would be willing to offend Liu Xin for such a person?
God knows if Liu Xin does this, does it mean that Liu Kan is in it?
As for Xiao He, there was really no time... Liu Kan returned to Xianyang for almost ten days, and Xiao He and Liu Kan only met several times. Every time there were major discussions, the situation in Hebei, the situation in Sanqi, and the war in the northern border that had already begun, Xiao He was busy with the utmost anxiety. There was still the intention to talk about this matter? If Liu Kan hadn't asked him, Xiao He would have probably forgotten it.
Lu Wan lives in a small house in Xicheng, Xianyang.
It covers a small area, only four or five rooms. The wall built with rammed earth is more than half a person high. Standing outside the wall, you can see the yard through.
Lu Wan's family lives here.
He was already married when he was in Pei County and had three sons under his knees. The eldest son was almost the same age as Liu Kan.
Later, he followed Liu Bang to Chen County to join Wu Chen, who secretly brought his family to Chen County. Lu Wan's wife was born and raised by Pei County, and was about the same as many farm women in the field. Zhang Chu failed and Chen County was destroyed. Lu Wan's wife hid in the countryside with her children. It was not until Lu Wan took Chen County with Liu Bang that she brought the children and met with Lu Wan and lived again.
After Liu Bang's death, Lu Wan surrendered.
Xiao He also sent someone from Chen County to bring Lu Wan's family to Xianyang.
It was almost time to go, Lu Wan, who had handled the official documents for one day in the Prime Minister's Office, dragged her tired body back home.
Before he entered the door, he heard the crying of his wife and daughter-in-law, and the moans of his eldest son Lu Xin, which really shocked Lu Wan.
"What's wrong with Lu Xin?"
When Lu Wan walked into the room, she saw Lu Xin lying on the couch, her nose was bruised and her eyes were swollen like a slit.
"Husband, I can't live this life!"
Lu Wan's wife cried, "The King of Tang is so cruel. His husband serves him, but he also lets his nephew make the letter like this."
Lu Xin did not become an official and made a small business in Xianyang.
Lu Wan shook the cicada with a chill, quickly closed the door, and covered his wife's mouth, "How dare you, a woman, talk nonsense?
Insulting the King of Tang is a serious crime that implicates the nine clans. Do you want to kill me?"
"If you die, die. I'm worried all day long, and it's even more sad than death."
Lu Xin's wife also stepped forward and said, "Father, Liu Yinglang is so cruel. He doesn't want to trouble us all day long. Today he has a problem. Xin argues with him for a few words, and he lets someone hold on to Xin and beat him up, almost killing Xin's life... Before leaving, he said that if he saw his father, he would never spare him... Father, why don't we leave, we can't live in Xianyang."
When Lu Wan heard this, she felt bitter in her heart.
He looked at his two sons, then looked at Lu Xin, who was moaning on the couch.
"I want to leave, but I'm afraid that my soul will return to Pei County and become a corpse... I offended the King of Tang in the past. When I was in Mianchi the last time, the King of Tang was very nice to me, but... I'll bear it for the matter of Liu Yinglang. When I see the Prime Minister tomorrow, I ask him to report to the King of Tang. If the King of Tang ignores this matter, even if he gives his name, we will leave here... It's such a sin!"
Lu Wan was indifferent.
I don’t know whether he was saying that Liu Xin was committing evil or that he was committing evil back then.
The room suddenly became quiet...
Just then, I suddenly heard the barking of dogs outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, someone shouted: "Can Lusheren be at home? Can Lusheren be at home?"
Accompanied by the shouting, there was a horse neighing. Lu Wan's second son's face changed, "Father, could it be that Liu Xin came to the door?"
"These guys are bullying too much, I've fought with them!"
Lu Wan's youngest son couldn't help but get a fire stick from the corner of the house and rushed out.
Lu Wan was startled and wanted to stop him but couldn't hold him back, so she quickly stood up and walked out of the house.
With a clang sound, after Lu Wan walked out the door, he saw a young man holding a steel knife in his hand, pressing the blade on Lu Wan's youngest son's neck. The youngest son of the Lu family was lying on the ground, and the fire stick had long been running away. His face was pale and there was no blood.
"Sir, show mercy!"
The boy's appearance was quite eye-catching, but his outfit made Lu Wan sweat.
A black robes, covered with black paint armor, and a white dragon cloak.
There is only one military soldier dressed up in Xianyang, that is, the Lao Fu Camp next to Liu Kan. Today, the Lao Fu Camp rarely fights to kill enemies, and more often acts as the guard of Liu Kan's personal army. Most of the people who can enter the Lao Fu Camp are loyal to Liu Kan and have high martial arts skills. These people are not soldiers, but are collectively called Ruishi. Each of them is very skilled in martial arts, so some people call him Bai Pi Jun.
Its meaning is: a sharp man is a hundred times, and no one can defeat him.
The entire Laofu camp has only 800 people in total, and its status is extremely transcendent.
Lu Wan saw clearly the boy's dress, but was really scared, so she hurriedly stepped forward to plead with her.
"Chief, put away the steel knife."
A gentle and familiar voice sounded, and Lu Wan looked up and was immediately scared to death.
He quickly tidied up his clothes, walked forward two steps, and knelt down and said, "I don't know that the king is coming, and I have missed the opportunity to welcome you. Please forgive me."
Outside the wood gate, Liu Kan and Xiao He stood with their hands behind their backs.
The leader of the car is Che Ning's grandson.
Now he is over 14 years old and is recommended by Che Ning to become a member of Baipi Ruishi.
Hearing Liu Kan's words, the commander put away his steel knife, retreated to the wooden door once, and stared at the young man on the ground with vigilance.
The Lu family was a little stupid. How could they not recognize Liu Kan and Xiao He? After looking at each other, they knelt behind Lu Wan in panic.
"Old Lu, get up quickly."
Xiao He walked forward, helped Lu Wan up, and said with a smile: "The king is here to visit you today, without any politeness."
Visit me?
Lu Wan couldn't help but wonder, raised her head and looked at Liu Kan, but saw Liu Kan smiling and signaling him to get up.
"It is indeed a great blessing for the minister to come to the humble house...
Old woman, hurry up and prepare the wine and food, and ask the king to speak in the hall."
Although Lu Wan is not a very talented person, she has lived for almost fifty years and her mind is very lively. He vaguely felt that he was afraid he would be lucky! Liu Kan is the king of a country, so how could he come to visit him? Not to mention that he and Liu Kan do not have such a good relationship, even if there is a huge difference in status now, if there is anything, Liu Kan calls him to go.
There is definitely something important when Liu Kan comes to the door in person.
Lu Wan respectfully invited Liu Kan to the living room, but Lu Wan's second son secretly grabbed Xiao He.
"Prime Minister!"
"Azhe, what's the matter?"
When they were in Pei County, Liu Kan and Lu Wan had a bad relationship, but Xiao He and Lu Wan were pretty good. Therefore, the people of the Lu family were not too embarrassed in front of Xiao He.
Lu Zhe said: "Can you tell the king about Liu Yinglang later? My brother was beaten again today!"
"ah!"
Xiao He was stunned and then slapped his head, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot about this matter. Is your brother okay?
Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with the king. I will say to the king after a while, and the king will naturally give you justice, don't worry."
With Xiao He's words, the Lu family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Kan and Lu Wan sat in the hall.
The commander and others were guarding the door, and Lu Wan served Liu Kan with wine.
