Chapter 137 The minister wants to impeach Prince Tang!
"Father Zhong, a few days ago, some bad guys came to assassinate me. However, because of my kindness, they were deeply moved and gave up the assassination. They cried bitterly and were willing to serve me... Zhang Bujiyan said that he was willing to serve me.
"The king's benevolence and righteousness can make all people return to their hearts. Don't be surprised if thieves return."
Liu Chang wrote the letter seriously. Even though Liu Hou left his eldest son to assist Liu Chang, Liu Chang did not give up and continued to write to him.
Of course, no matter what problems he encountered, he would turn to Liu Hou and directly use Liu Hou as his staff.
Fortunately, Liuhou was also very generous. When Liu Chang asked what to do if the Tang Dynasty had no generals, Liuhou wrote back and asked him to bring Peng Yue and Yingbu's old troops to the Tang Dynasty. On the one hand, these people were indeed brave and brave.
They were the fierce men who fought against Xiang Yu and survived. On the other hand, Liuhou also believed that Zhang Cang and the King of Tang could control these fierce men and use them in the right place.
This time, Liu Chang once again asked Liu Hou for help.
"Father Zhong, the Huns have plundered the Yan State several times. The Yan State has a vast territory and rich resources, but our Tang State is small and poor. Now the King of Yan is asking Prime Minister Zhang for help, hoping that the Tang State can help defend some of the Great Walls in the west. Although our Tang State is poor, the people of Tang State are not well clothed.
I want to cover my body, but I can't bear to see the people of Yan State being bullied like this. The King of Yan is my brother, and I want to save him, but I don't know what the plan is for Liu Hou?"
After he quickly finished writing the letter, he asked his attendant to take the letter out and give it to Zhang Buyi for him to mail.
When Liu Chang gave his orders and happily walked into Jiaofang Hall, Empress Lu glanced at him and asked, "Are you writing another letter to harass Marquis Liu?"
"Mom! What is harassment? I am asking for advice with an open mind, and I am not ashamed to ask!"
"It's right not to be ashamed to ask...but you can't use Liuhou as your own adviser...Liuhou rarely has a few years of leisure time...and he got entangled with you, a bastard."
Liu Chang came to Empress Lu with a smile and asked: "Mom...can I..."
"cannot."
"But I haven't asked yet!"
"You want to arrange personal soldiers into Chang'an."
"Forehead...."
Liu Chang was stunned for a moment and asked, "Did Zhao Ping tell my mother? Or did Luan Bu say it?"
"Do you still need them to tell me?" Queen Lu shook her head disdainfully.
Liu Chang sat obediently next to Empress Lu and began to complain, "Mom, those Chu Mo's are simply fools. They can't be driven away no matter how hard they try. Unless they want to prove Chu Mo's demeanor, I'll let you
Luan Bu saved a group of Qin Mo. This Qin Mo was not very smart. He bowed to me every time, and his legs went weak when he saw the soldiers... He couldn't even say anything. I even pardoned them, but they were still so scared.
.”
"The Mohist family is no longer good... Confucianism is not a good thing either. That Shusun Tong became arrogant after my father's death. He had several disciples. Yesterday when I entered the city, they stopped me and scolded me.
It’s unethical to say that I don’t go and thank the Emperor in person after receiving a reward from the Emperor, which is disrespectful to the Emperor!”
"I told them that I was Xunzi and asked them to be more polite, but they scolded them even more fiercely."
"I originally wanted to forgive them generously, but then I remembered the teachings of Confucius that you should not repay evil with kindness, so I asked Luan Bu to tie them up and send them to Shang Fang to do some transportation and other things.
They had a lot of quarrels with the Mo family. Usually when I'm bored, I go to watch them quarrel. It's very interesting..."
"stand up."
Empress Lu asked Liu Chang to stand up, then measured his height and the length of his arms, looking over and over.
Liu Chang stretched out his hands and said: "Shusun Tong also came to plead for mercy. I asked Luan Bu to tie him up, but the old man ran too fast and Luan Bu couldn't catch up..."
"Turn around."
Empress Lu measured Liu Chang's legs again.
"Gong Gai is very happy. During the lectures these days, he told me to be more generous and not to imprison those people for too long. Locking them up for ten or eight years is enough. Gai Gong also told me that I can let a few more people go."
Legalists come to supervise them, otherwise they won't pay attention, but I couldn't find Legalists..."
Liu Chang said, Queen Lu also finished the measurement, Liu Chang sat down again, "Mom, you want to make me new clothes?" Mom, I want to wear red clothes. Zhang Buyi has a set of red clothes, which are very beautiful.
, when riding a horse and galloping, it feels like fire, it’s very beautiful...”
Liu Chang looked at Empress Lu pitifully, and Empress Lu snorted coldly, "You still have the nerve to say... No matter what kind of clothes you wear, you can only wear them for three days. After three days, they will be dirty and torn. If you don't wash them yourself,
You actually asked your aunt to help you wash it...and asked her not to tell me...are you embarrassed?"
"How could my aunt tell you? She said she wouldn't tell you..."
Liu Chang suddenly woke up and cursed: "It must be Fan Qing who snitched!"
"I will never spare her!!!"
........
At this moment, during the court discussion, the atmosphere was completely different from usual.
A minister angrily filed an impeachment report: "The king of the Tang Dynasty is arrogant and does not obey the law, is domineering and tyrannical, behaves unfairly, is arrogant and disrespectful, and violates laws and disciplines!"
"He rode in the city, despised the ministers, and disrespected the emperor. A few days ago, he even led his troops to break into the prime minister's house. The ministers were frightened, but your majesty not only did not punish him, but also rewarded him! The king of Tang originally relied on his majesty and the queen mother.
Your Majesty is the one who favors you so much. Your eldest brother is your father. Your Majesty should discipline him well! Please punish King Tang for his crime!"
As soon as these words came out, the officials were in an uproar and started discussing. When they talked about the Tang king's harm to their family, the temple suddenly turned into a gathering place for the victims.
Cao Shen looked at the ministers, then stood up and said: "Your Majesty! Please punish the king of Tang Dynasty! Remove his soldiers! Have the court officer interrogate him! Send him to the feudal state!"
Tingwei Xuanyi had been listening happily before, but when he suddenly heard this sentence, his face changed drastically. He was stubborn, but he was not stupid. He was going to interrogate Chang Liu? He was interrogating Chang Liu today, and tomorrow the new Tingwei should come to interrogate him!
But Liu Ying still remembered Cao Shen's instructions. He frowned and said: "You have sent away my three brothers, and now I only have one person, the elder, how can you not tolerate him?!"
Liu Ying looked very serious. At this moment, the temple fell silent for an instant.
You know, before today, Liu Ying had never shown such a serious look in front of the officials. He had always been very gentle and obeyed his words.
Cao Shen paid his respects and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty! The king of Tang is domineering! He once told his ministers that anyone who disrespects him should be killed! Why should I, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, be insulted by the princes?"
"The King of Tang is young, I will take care of his affairs! You don't need to say much!"
Liu Ying spoke loudly and ordered the court meeting to end.
At this time, the ministers exploded.
When they walked out of the palace, they were still discussing. They were shocked and angry. Of course, the officials all liked the emperor now. Who wouldn't like such a good emperor? However, the emperor doted on the king of Tang so much.
He even refuted Cao Shen face to face, and there was already dissatisfaction in his words, which was unacceptable to the ministers.
You are not Emperor Taizu, how can you be so tough?
The source of all this is the lawless King Tang, who wants to teach our good emperor bad things!
Everyone was talking about this matter and how to punish the King of Tang. The ministers seemed to be doing it for the emperor. In fact, they just wanted to continue to control the emperor and prevent the princes and the queen mother from interfering too much with the emperor. There were people in the court.
The King of Tang was such a powerful vassal king, which was really not a good thing for the ministers.
Of course, Liu Chang didn't know that a storm had arisen against him in the court at this moment. At this moment, he was wearing a new set of red clothes, showing off in front of the wise men.
This set of clothes is very well made. Of course, Liu Chang doesn't like to mix old and new clothes. He either wears old clothes until they stink, or wears a whole new set of clothes and wears them again until they stink.
.
"Your Majesty! This dress looks great!"
"Yes, the king is like a phoenix bird when he waves his sleeves!"
"Bold Chen Mai! How dare you say that the king is a bird!"
"Xiahou Zao, I won't argue with you, a fool. Read more! Read more!"
Everyone was chattering, Liu Chang grinned and said: "Okay, eat meat, eat meat!"
Just when the sages were eating delicious chicken and having fun, Luan Bu hurried over. He looked a little uneasy. He walked to Liu Chang's side, leaned down and whispered: "Your Majesty.
..Please return to the palace quickly, something happened."
Hearing this, Liu Chang didn't even ask any questions. He stood up quickly, looked at everyone, and said, "I still have important things to do. If I don't come back today, then we will meet again tomorrow!"
Immediately, he followed Luan Bu and hurried back to the palace.
