Empress Lu said in disgust, but Liu Chang just looked at her and pouted.
Empress Lu sighed, and then waved her hand. Liu Chang then smiled and lay on his side in his mother's arms. Empress Lu felt that this guy was a little heavy, so she helplessly stretched out her hand, stroked his back, and cursed:
"How old are you and you still want me to caress your back! I can't even reach it with my hands!!"
"I don't care, even if I am over 60 years old in the future, my mother will still have to caress my back!"
"Why don't you let Cao Shu caress your back?"
"Ahem, what did mom say? There are some things that cannot be said between mother and son!"
"Pa~~~"
Empress Lu patted Liu Chang on the head and cursed: "You also know how to be ashamed?"
"Mom... come with me to Tang Kingdom."
Empress Lu's hands trembled, and then she said: "I have been angry with you for more than ten years...how much longer do you want to be angry with me? If you are not here, I can be more relaxed."
"Mom...sometimes, I really want to go to the Tang Dynasty. I want to make achievements and compete with Maodun on the grassland! I want to ride horses and chariots freely in Taiyuan...", Liu Chang's eyes
It was full of longing, "I want the ministers to make me the best chariot, and personally snatch the Xiongnu's sheep, burn their flags, and use them to roast the sheep... I want to govern the Tang Dynasty well and make the people of the Tang Dynasty prosperous."
Thank me!"
"I want to seize the Xiongnu's Dragon Court all the way and piss on the top!"
"I want everyone to respect me. All my friends will gather around me and hold banquets all day long. After drinking wine and eating meat, I will go to kill the enemy. After killing the enemy, I will come back to drink wine and eat meat!"
"I want to marry any good-looking woman, have a bunch of lively sons, and take them to play!"
Listening to her son talk about the daunting dream, Empress Lu was not angry.
"then you go."
Empress Lu said seriously: "Remember to send the captured Xiongnu royal flag to Chang'an. I will personally lay it out in front of the gate of Jiaofang Palace."
"But I can't bear to leave my mother."
"Even if I have accomplished these things, if I don't have my mother to listen to me show off, what's the point?"
Liu Chang yawned and said: "It would be best for my mother to go to the Tang Dynasty with me... At that time, I will leave the affairs of the country to my mother, and leave the war to me. We, mother and son, will work together...
.." As he spoke, his voice became lower and lower, and soon he fell asleep, snoring gently.
Queen Lu lowered her head and looked at her son in her arms with lonely eyes. She picked up the bamboo slips in front of her and continued to read.
Now to leave with Liu Chang is to completely hand over power.
Even if the power is handed over to the emperor, how can the empress dowager of the Han Dynasty live with the vassal king? That would put the emperor into an unfilial situation. If so, Liu Ying should apologize to the world.
But with Liu Chang's temperament, how long can he stay in Chang'an?
Queen Lu couldn't help but think deeply.
When Liu Chang woke up, Empress Lu was still reviewing the memorial. Liu Chang rubbed his eyes and said, "Mom, do you want to have dinner together?"
"I'm not hungry yet, you go ahead and eat."
"oh."
Liu Chang walked out of Jiaofang Hall and walked towards his Houde Hall. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw an old man walking towards him with a cane. Liu Chang took the initiative to step aside and let
The old man passed by first. When Liu Bang was there, he told him many times that only the old, the young and the disabled should not be bullied.
Liu Chang always remembered his father's words. On weekdays, if he didn't take the initiative to provoke him, he would still be very polite to the old man.
Seeing Liu Chang give way, the old man stopped and bowed gently to Liu Chang, who smiled in return.
The old man just walked into the Jiaofang Hall. Liu Chang looked at this man curiously. He didn't know who he was, but he didn't rely on his old age to show off his old age. He was also very polite to himself. He was not a bad person, unlike those veterans in the temple.
Just as arrogant, glaring at people with his nostrils.
The original Marquis of Dai, who was not too young, relied on his elders to question him, and was humiliated in various ways. As a result, Liu Chang grabbed his beard, dragged him to the front yard, and beat him severely.
Big man, disrespecting the elders is a very serious crime and can almost ruin your reputation. However, for the King of Tang, this is nothing. Anyway, the King of Tang has been ruined a long time ago, and ruined reputation is not enough to describe him.
There are too many to describe, but this is a ruthless man who went to the temple of Emperor Gao after drinking too much to complain, and then beat the officials after being stopped. In the face of the accusation of unfilial piety, disrespecting the elderly is nothing. After the death of Emperor Gao, every day
Emperor Yue would go there to offer sacrifices, because the Han people had strict sacrifice time, but this one was different. When he wanted to go, he would go for three or four days in a row, but if he didn't want to go, he would not go for several months.
When Liu Chang returned to Houde Hall, Zhang Qing was leading people to pack his things.
It's not that Liu Chang is going somewhere, it's just that Liu Chang is born with a certain attribute of demolition. Liu Chang stayed in Houde Hall for three days, and the place turned into a garbage dump. The Queen Mother even sent a few more people to help.
After he tidied up, the man entered the palace, took off his shirt, and threw it aside without arranging it. He sat in front of the couch and asked Zhang Qing to get some food.
"Your Majesty, there is a great sage here today, so you can prepare a gift."
Zhang Qing has a wide network of contacts in the palace. If there is any news, he can always inform Liu Chang as soon as possible.
Upon hearing these words, Liu Chang thought of the old man he had just passed by and asked, "Which great sage is he?"
"This man is called Uncle Fuqiu. He is a great Confucian and a poet. He was a disciple of the King of Chu in Chu State... He later traveled to various places and was summoned by the Queen Mother to come to Chang'an."
"Cure poetry? What can poetry do to cure it? It's useless!"
Liu Chang was very disdainful, but Zhang Qing said with a smile: "If you don't learn poetry, you can't speak. Confucianism is not about making poetry, but using it for state affairs..."
"I know, I know, where's the food? Why haven't we served it yet?"
When Liu Chang walked out of the palace, everyone was already waiting for him.
Luan Bu and Jia Yi looked a little excited and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Has your Majesty ever seen Duke Fuqiu?"
"I met him once, but I didn't say anything... This person has such a great reputation??"
"Gong Fuqiu is a great Confucian who is famous all over the world, and Gong Shusun cannot compare with him."
"How does it compare to my teacher?"
Luan Bu and Jia Yi hesitated slightly, Luan Bu did not speak, but Jia Yi said straightforwardly: "My master does not stick to trivial matters, so his reputation is not as good as that of Duke Fuqiu!"
"oh?"
Liu Chang was a little surprised, and Zhang Buyi hurriedly stepped forward, "Your Majesty? I'll prepare the rope?"
"Zhang Buyi! What do you want to do?! Mr. Fuqiu has nearly a hundred people, how dare you be rude?!"
"It's not his intention, I just want to tie a sheep and give it to this great sage... Your Majesty, just tell me, is this man virtuous? Is he virtuous enough?"
Zhang Buyi looked straight at Liu Chang, waiting for his order. Ji Bu, who was standing beside him, slowly said, "The Queen Mother summoned this person in person, there must be something important."
The Queen Mother and Sheren made it very clear that this Queen Mother is still useful and cannot be touched by you.
Zhang Buyi didn't care, just waiting for Liu Chang's order.
Jia Yi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this Duke of Fuqiu is upright and erudite. He teaches his disciples everywhere. He teaches all kinds of things. Even the master respects him very much. Some even say that he once studied with Xunzi. This is a real great master.
Xian, unlike your sages, you must not be rude!"
Liu Chang's eyes lit up, "Oh? The real great sage?"
Jia Yi was about to speak, but Luan Bu pinched his arm, and then said: "Your Majesty, you are not virtuous, you are not virtuous, you are just a poet, you know nothing... of no use."
Jia Yi was furious and was about to question him, but Luan Bu signaled that he was not allowed to speak.
"I can only compose poetry, so forget it...go to Master's house!"
Liu Chang got on the carriage proudly, Zhang Buyi drove, and everyone set off together. Luan Bu and Jia Yi walked at the end. Jia Yi asked displeasedly: "Why are you disrespectful to Duke Fuqiu?"
"When Liu Hou came to Chang'an... Your Majesty almost kidnapped him back to the Tang Kingdom... Your time with the Majesty was still short. You don't understand... At that age of Mr. Fuqiu, if the Majesty had to kidnap him back...
, isn’t it that something big is going to happen!”
Jia Yi was stunned, "How could your Majesty do such a thing?"
"Just tell me, what is it that the king cannot do??"
The two Confucian scholars exchanged opinions on the spot and decided to agree on the same tone. The king must not think that this person is a virtuous man. This Duke of Fuqiu is very old, older than Zhang Cang. If Liu Chang is rude to him, then what will happen to him?
It's not okay to offend the entire Confucian school.
"You have been studying for so long? Why don't you know anything?!"
Han Xin asked angrily.
Liu Chang replied aggrievedly: "Master, you are asking about things you have taught me. You always ask me about things I have not taught you. How do I know?"
"Do you think that when you go to war in the future, you will have to read the Art of War at any time, or send someone to send me a letter to inquire?!"
"Will the enemy attack you based on your knowledge and avoiding your blind spots?!"
Liu Chang was dejected. After learning the art of war from Han Xin for so long, why didn't he make any progress? He had been studying swordsmanship for a long time, and now it was not easy even for Ji Bu to capture him. Knowing this art of war, no matter who he was,
No matter how he learned it, Han Xin always kept him in check.
"Master, do you think it's possible that it's not because I'm too stupid, but because you're too powerful?"
"Oh, of your level, you are only a mere uncle in the army... let alone Mao Dun, even a random person from the Northern Army can easily defeat you!"
Han Xin said mercilessly, and Liu let out a long sigh, looking a little frustrated.
"As a general, a small mistake may destroy the entire army... Back then, Zhao Kuo killed hundreds of thousands of people with just one mistake... We must be cautious... Learn more now, and you will be better in the future.
If you can pay less... you are leaving Chang'an... while you can still learn from me, study hard... and don't lose my face when you fight abroad."
Liu Chang then raised his head and said firmly: "Definitely not!"
"Master, I have taken your family back to Tang State...I will never leave you alone in Chang'an. If I want to leave, I will definitely take you with me!"
Han Xin sneered, "Then don't even think about leaving... If you take me away, even the Queen Mother will have trouble sleeping and eating."
Liu Chang said seriously: "There will definitely be a way."
Han Xin did not answer. The reason why he is still alive is because he is still useful. On the one hand, the Queen Mother asked him to teach Liu Chang, and on the other hand, she also used him to scare the ministers. However, now that the ministers were completely defeated, Liu Chang was leaving Chang'an again.
, then he will be of little use with the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother will never leave him to future generations to solve.
Han Xin knew this very well.
After the teaching, Liu Chang stood up with a smile and ordered Shiren to bring in a box and place it in front of Han Xin, "Master, I made this for you myself! Then I'll come back tomorrow!!"
Liu Chang turned around and left. Han Xin opened the box. Inside was a crown, a wooden Chu crown with very rough workmanship.
Han Xin looked at the crown, threw it aside, and cursed: "Shuzi! You are just doing something useless!"
After cursing for a long time, Han Xin slowly picked up the crown, looked around, and secretly put it on his head.
"Your Majesty...if you really want to leave Chang'an, you must handle the affairs of Marquis Huaiyin."
Zhang Buyi drove the car, deliberately leaving the people behind him at a distance, and then said.
Liu Chang nodded, "I know... Master will die as soon as I leave, right?"
"It depends on what the Queen Mother wants."
"Zhang Buyi, can you take away my master?"
"Your Majesty... I have been observing the residence of Marquis Huaiyin. The Queen Mother has sent more than forty soldiers. In addition to these soldiers, I also found that in the house opposite, there are often people peeking into the house of Marquis Huaiyin. The door
In the past, people often passed by, and these people were not frightened when they saw the soldiers. They were all here to guard the Marquis of Huaiyin."
"If the king wants to rescue the Marquis of Huaiyin, it is useless to ask the Queen Mother. The best way is to set fire to the Marquis of Huaiyin's house. The Marquis of Huaiyin will die in the mansion... As long as the Marquis of Huaiyin dies, the king's army can
Heading to Tang State..."
"Fake death... This is Chang'an. How can I do this when my mother attaches so much importance to my master?"
"I am willing to do this for your Majesty! If it fails, I will say that it was Chen Ping who instigated it and will never implicate your Majesty."
"Don't worry...I'll think about it carefully."
"Your Majesty, you must not hesitate to do this kind of thing... The Marquis of Huaiyin is a rare hero in the world. If he is allowed to command the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, who else in the world can resist the Tang Dynasty? What's more, I heard that the Marquis of Huaiyin usually
The words in it also have the idea of assisting the king... If the soldiers hadn't stopped me, I would have wanted to pay a visit to the Marquis of Huaiyin and ask him some principles of doing things..."
"Well... you'd better not ask him about the truth... It's okay to ask him about military matters, but forget about the rest."
While the two were talking, Luan Bu and the others caught up with them.
"Zhang Buyi! You deliberately threw us away, and you wanted to trick the king into doing something evil?!"
Zhao Ping asked breathlessly. It was difficult for such an old man to chase a car on foot.
"I am discussing with the king how to eradicate the disloyal people!"
The people quarreled again, and Liu Chang was about to run away. However, Jia Yi kept standing beside him. When he saw Liu Chang making any move, he shouted: "The king is running away! The king is running away!", She
People hurriedly stopped the quarrel and quickly surrounded Liu Chang. Liu Chang glared at Jia Yi displeasedly, "I'm just stretching my muscles!"
Luan Bu smiled and patted Jia Yi on the shoulder, "You have done a good job. You must keep an eye on the king all the time in the future. If there is anything unusual, shout out immediately!"
Jia Yi smiled and nodded. It was the first time that he had been recognized by his colleagues as a soldier for so long. With such a humanoid siren following Liu Chang, Liu Chang couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
Just when Liu Chang decided to go back to his hometown to summon the wise men, a close attendant suddenly came.
"Your Majesty...the Queen Mother is inviting all the wise men to a banquet. Please come."
"Oh? A banquet for the wise men? Are they the wise men of the widow?"
"Um...it's Fuqiu Bo, Mao Heng, Shu Sun Tong, Shen Peigong, Lu Musheng, Zou Yang, Bai Sheng and others..."
"Oh, how do these people deserve to be called sages?"
"Don't go!"
"I want to meet the real sages!"
The attendant didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I really have something important to discuss with you."
Liu Chang had no choice but to return to the palace.
On the way, Luan Bu and Jia Yi were worried. You reminded me one by one: "Your Majesty, these are learned and famous people. You must not be rude to them... Your Majesty, please stop speaking and nod.
Or shake your head... Never drink alcohol..."
"I know, I know!"
When Liu Chang walked into the palace, the Queen Mother was sitting in the upper position, and the others were sitting on both sides. Except for Shusun Tong, Liu Chang did not know any of these people. He had only seen the person who had gone to Jiaofang Palace that morning.
The old man, Liu Chang obediently paid homage to the Queen Mother and then the old man, and then sat down in his seat.
The Queen Mother seemed to be quite polite to these people. She smiled and said: "These are the great sages of the country. You can learn from them and worship them!"
"I studied literature with Duke Gai of Qi, Confucianism with Duke Zhang, archery with Marquis Guan, military service with General Xiahou, military with Marquis Huaiyin... Can these people be ranked alongside my teachers?", Liu Chang
He asked proudly.
Everyone was stunned, and the old man sitting at the top nodded with a smile and praised: "That's the truth! If you meet a worthy person, you should treat him as a teacher. Then what kind of etiquette should you use when you meet your own teacher?
Your Majesty is right!"
Liu Changchang was delighted that this old man was a good man, and asked with a smile: "May I ask who the great sage is?"
"Uncle Fuqiu has met the king."
"Oh, it turns out you are Duke Fuqiu. If it were you, you should really pay homage to me with the master's ceremony!"
"I don't dare to take it seriously. I have read through your Majesty's book. Your Majesty's understanding of numbers makes me extremely admired. A master is a teacher. There is nothing wrong with me paying homage to your Majesty as a teacher."
The old man and the young man talked happily and got along in an unusually harmonious manner.
Shusun Tong looked at the two of them with some confusion. This development is not right? They are all Confucian, why does the king treat them differently??!
Fu Qiubo stroked his beard and said to the people around him: "Before I came to Chang'an, I heard many people say that the King of Tang was rude! Now it seems that it is just the words of jealousy and hatred of a villain!"
"Yes, yes!" Liu Changxi said with joy, patting his thigh, "Why didn't I meet you earlier! Oh, come, come, please sit next to me!"
Empress Lu interrupted Liu Chang with a straight face, and said seriously: "Chief, I asked you to come here this time because I have something important to discuss with you."
"Mom...please give me the Queen Mother's orders!"
Empress Lu then said: "I know that you set up a school in the Tang Dynasty, summoned sages from all over the country, and invited scholars to come and study."
"I want to establish an Imperial Academy in Chang'an. What do you think?"
"Ah, very good!"
"Let's call together the wise men from all over the world and the leaders of hundreds of schools to teach knowledge."
"That's how it should be done!"
"Let scholars from all over the country come to Chang'an to study. After completing their studies, they will be given official positions."
"That's great. This way, the world can be reunited. As long as the scholars have their hearts set on the Han, they won't be afraid of changes in the country!"
"Well, therefore, I decided to abolish local private schools, including those in the Tang Dynasty, and then summon hundreds of sages from various schools to come to Chang'an."
“Mom is so confused!!!”
“This is absolutely impossible!!!”
Liu Chang shouted sadly and angrily.
ps: Before I knew it, my birthday was coming up in ten days. I didn’t expect that I would be fifteen years old so soon. Time flies so fast. It’s a pity that there is an epidemic, otherwise I would have gathered my book friends to celebrate the birthday together.
, I stole it from my uncle... I borrowed a sheep and slaughtered it for everyone to enjoy!
