"I just recited a few articles. Do you want to listen to me?"
Looking at the little kid in front of him who was smiling and eager to wag his tail, Queen Lu asked with a cold face: "How much do you want?"
"I don't want money!"
"Who did you hit?"
"I didn't hit anyone...How could my mother miss me so much? I am now a noble king, how can I stop messing around?"
"oh."
"Then what is the instruction of King Tang?"
"Mom, there's no need to be polite!"
Before Liu Chang finished speaking, Queen Lu grabbed him by the neck and pulled him in front of her, "Do you think I don't know what you want to do?! I asked you to learn the art of war from the Marquis of Huaiyin, but you imitated his rebellion.
Are you capable? Are you here to ask for personal soldiers from me?"
"Ah?" Liu Chang thought of his master's two very failed rebellions and shook his head hastily. His own rebellion was definitely better than what his master planned.
"The soldiers around the master are indeed your people..."
Only then did Empress Lu let go of the boy and cursed: "Learn from him and don't listen to his nonsense... You are not that material."
Liu Chang asked cautiously: "Mom? Will you kill the Marquis of Huaiyin?"
"Why should I kill him?"
"Marquis Chen said that if I recruit soldiers in a big way, the court will be afraid of me and will try to kill me."
Empress Lu glanced at him and asked, "Is this what Duke Zhao said?"
"My mother even knows this! My mother is truly a god!"
Empress Lu asked the little guy to sit in front of her and said seriously: "You are not the emperor's enemy, you are the emperor's shield... What you rely on now is not your Tang Dynasty, nor your sacrifice, nor
Those guys behind you are your brothers."
"If your brother is strong, you will be powerful...and the more powerful you are, the more powerful your brother will be. Do you understand?"
"Your master has known for a long time that I would send people to watch him, but he still dared to say those words because he knew that I would not kill him for this."
"Don't trust the officials in the court easily, even Cao Shen, Fan Kuai... the same thing."
"What they need is different from what the emperor needs."
"I will help you with the matter of personal soldiers... Your brother does not value military power and does not like war... If I am gone in the future and your brother's orders cannot reach the Northern and Southern armies, I will allow you to lead the army into Chang'an.
, abolish the armies of the north and the south."
"Don't always focus on your part of Tang State...always pay attention to Chang'an."
This was the first time that Empress Lu had given such serious instructions to Liu Chang.
Liu Chang was dumbfounded. He paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."
"Don't say these words to anyone, not even your family...just keep it to yourself."
Liu Chang's face also became very serious. He looked at his mother and said seriously: "Mom, I understand what you mean... The ministers will assist Your Majesty at home, and I will assist you outside... If they intend to evade the emperor,
, I will lead the troops and kill them."
.......
In Tianlu Pavilion, Liu Changzheng smiled and gestured to Liu Ruyi, "Then Ruyi is so tall...but he is very obedient, much more obedient than you. Anyway, I often take him out..."
"Oh, I also raised a dog in Zhao State. My name is Chang. The dog is very fierce and ugly..."
Liu Hui helplessly put the two brothers away, "Eldest brother, King Zhao will return to the feudal country tomorrow... Just say less."
Liu Chang stopped arguing, "Are you leaving too?"
"Yes, it has only been a few days... Prime Minister Cao came to see me yesterday and said that His Majesty did not allow us to leave and asked us to plead with His Majesty in person to leave..."
"This thief! Why does he care so much about our family's affairs?!"
Liu Chang shouted angrily.
"What Mr. Cao said is right... Now that His Majesty has ascended the throne, we should leave too..."
"Then what should I do? Am I the only one left in Tianlu Pavilion?"
Liu Chang felt a little aggrieved and his tone was a little sad.
Then, he said angrily: "If you all leave, then I will go back to Tang Kingdom."
None of the brothers spoke, and they didn't know what to say.
Liu Ruyi asked for a moment and then said: "What? Are you afraid that you won't be able to understand Gai Gong's class alone? Without us explaining it to you, you might not be able to understand even a single class, right?"
"Bah! Are you also going to pair me up with the provoking method?"
"When it comes to family ties, I have to call you brother; when it comes to motivating generals, you have to call me ancestor!"
While Liu Chang was talking, a man suddenly came to the pavilion door asking to see the king of Tang.
Liu Chang hated it when others interrupted his bragging. He walked out angrily and looked up to see a man who looked like a general, very serious.
"Who are you? What do you want from me?!"
"Ningling Marquis Lu Chen paid homage to the King of Tang and asked him to select his own soldiers."
"Soldiers?"
Liu Chang was delighted and hurriedly stepped forward to hold Lu Chen's hand, "Father Zhong! Are you going to select the Northern and Southern armies?"
"Um...that's exactly it."
"Then let's go, let's go, I'll go with Father Zhong!"
"Does Father Zhong have any position?"
"Leading General."
"Ah? Since I was a child in the palace, I have heard that Father Zhong defeated Chen Xi's traitor. How can I make you a small leading general? Father Zhong is willing to go to the Tang Dynasty. I can make Father Zhong the chief of the Tang Dynasty.
General!"
"This... many thanks to King Tang for his kindness..."
"Hey, it's okay. I can understand it. After all, Tang is dangerous and there are enemies everywhere... It's not as safe as Chang'an... It's understandable that Father Zhong doesn't want to go..."
Lu Chen's face turned darker and darker, and he shut his mouth knowingly, not answering no matter what the kid said.
After finally arriving at the school grounds, the doctor ordered Chen Ping to come and greet him.
Well, Chen Ping is a military official. At this time, Lang Zhongling will be in charge of the Southern Army together with the Weiwei. He is responsible for the emperor's safety and has a high position.
"Father Zhong!"
Liu Chang held Chen Ping's hand enthusiastically, but Chen Ping still had the same calm expression, "The captain came here just now and has selected 500 people for the king, and set up a separate battalion outside the city to train for the king.
..”
"Oh, Chen Hou, I'm leaving."
Liu Chang really wanted to go to the school grounds outside the city, but he couldn't get out of the city, all because of the thief Cao.
Thinking of Thief Cao, Liu Chang couldn't help but think of his second daughter.
However, now he did not dare to look for it, just because when he wanted to kidnap the marquis, he "borrowed" a road from Cao Shen, but Cao Shen never allowed him to come again, threatening to beat him every time he saw him.
Liu Chang was not afraid of him. He mainly considered that he might marry his daughter in the future, so he gave him face and did not argue with him.
However, Liu Chang also had a way to solve such a matter and was quite experienced. He asked Mr. Fan to call his sister.
Fan Qing ate snacks and looked at Liu Chang curiously.
"Fan Qing, brother, I have something to ask of you this time..."
"What's in it for me?!"
Liu Chang shook his head and reprimanded: "Why do you always think about benefits? It's like plucking the hair when the geese pass by, leaving the skin when the beasts leave! I'm your brother, and you actually want benefits from me? In your heart,
Don’t you have any affection at all? How can you be so heartless?”
Fan Qing rolled his eyes and snorted coldly, "I won't help you if you don't give me any benefits!"
"Oh... okay, I'll give... give you twenty dollars..."
"thirty!"
"Okay, thirty is thirty! You help me go to the Cao Mansion to deliver a message... to the second daughter of the Cao family... put this thing in her hands. Remember, give it to her when no one else is around!
"
Fan Qing stretched out his hand, "I can't trust you, give me the money now!"
"I owe you first..."
"No credit allowed."
Liu Chang was stunned, and Fan and his wife couldn't help laughing. Liu Chang said helplessly: "Husband and wife, take the money!"
"Ah?? Why am I the one getting the money?!"
"I'll pay you back another day!"
Mr. and Mrs. Fan hesitated slightly and looked at Fan Shiren who was standing aside, "Mr. Fan, take the money!"
When Fan Qing knocked on the door and sweetly said that she was the daughter of Marquis Wuyang and came to see the eldest sister of the Cao family, none of the servants stopped her. She looked so deceitful that she just walked in like this.
Entering the inner room, I met the eldest sister of the Cao family.
Cao Shu looked at the strange little sister in front of her in surprise, exclaimed, and picked her up. Compared to Liu Chang, Fan Qing was obviously cuter.
Fan Qing said sweetly: "Are you the sister of the Cao family? Someone asked me to send a gift..."
She took out a jade, handed it to Cao Shu, and said: "His name is Liu Chang... He is the one who leads a group of people to climb over the wall all day long..."
"Hahaha..."
Cao Shu laughed, pinched Fan Qing's face and said, "Did he send you to be a matchmaker?"
Fan Qing was stunned and said hurriedly: "Sister, please don't marry him! He is very bad. He even robs me of snacks. Every time he asks me to do something, he always owes me money and never pays me back... He is also very cruel.
He likes to beat people, if my sister marries him, he will beat you every day!"
Cao Shu laughed until her stomach hurt, and asked again: "Then he can't get a wife?"
"It's okay, I can just marry him. My father is very fierce. He can't beat my father."
"But didn't you say he was bad? Why did you marry him?"
Fan Qing shrugged helplessly and said, "He can't get a wife. What can I do?"
