The president queues up at the door to make notices, but some of the appointments are unreasonable, which is unusual.
One side of the cabin is filled with grass roots, and the other side needs a man, so he has to deal with it.
They also said it was Luan Yu who was driving the car, and he returned to his hometown today.
A mighty group of people walked out of Chang'an. The counties and villages along the way immediately began to make preparations. They did not dare to neglect. The ceremonial guard in front was very luxurious. The flag at the head was fluttering in the wind. The doctor cleared the way. The red-lacquered fork and the silver-plated ax were displayed one after another.
Then came several more standing chariots, with their drivers wearing armor and holding crossbows.
But I saw a cart with a cranked yellow cover, and a tall and strong man sitting in it, stroking his beard, squinting at everyone, looking at nothing. In front of the cart were the servants, and behind the cart were guards holding halberds.
There were several cars and a huge cart with six horses pulling it, and they were moving forward calmly.
The standard travel configuration of this foolish king is, of course, Liu Chang.
"Your Majesty, it's so comfortable to sit in a car, why sit or stand in a car?"
Lu Lu, who was driving the car, was very confused. He had just returned to Chang'an from Zhao State and received an errand to drive for Liu Chang. In this regard, he thought he was talented, at least better than the guy from Xiahou Zao.
, However, not long after he walked out, Liu Chang changed the car again and wanted to sit or stand.
"My mother is resting in the car, but I don't want to disturb her, so I sit in the car."
As Liu Chang spoke, Lu Lu couldn't help but praise: "There is no filial son in the world like a great king!"
"What? My eldest mother wanted Father Zhong to study, but Father Zhong refused, so he ran away from Anche!"
Liu Xiang, who was riding a horse and enjoying the joy of riding, could no longer listen and immediately retorted.
Liu Chang glanced at this Zhuzi and realized that this Zhuzi could not survive without beating him. When he got to the next county, he would still have to spare some time to give him a good beating.
Lu Lu laughed and looked at him again, "Why is the King of Hexi also coming out?"
"I learned it from Father Zhong!"
Lu Lu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, this boy is very much like you!"
"Fart, this guy is like King Zhao, uneducated and incompetent. When I was his age, I had already followed Mr. Gai to read Huang Lao and started to delve into the study of sages. I have learned a lot!"
Lu Lu nodded, "That's true. Back then, we got together to debate classics, read poems and books, compose essays, and talk about governing the country. This is incomparable to today's children."
Liu Xiang was stunned and looked at the two of them in surprise, "Really or not? Was this really like this when you were young?"
"That's natural. When I was young, I gathered the wise men of Chang'an and studied academics all day long. How could I be such a bastard like you?"
"That's too boring."
Liu Xiang whispered in a low voice, but suddenly felt a little ashamed in his heart. He remembered that he had never done anything serious when he was so old. He had always been sneaking around with his brothers. Unexpectedly, it turned out that his father-in-law had already done this when he was young.
With such ability, why can’t I do it myself?
At this time, Kai Ye came to them on horseback and met with Father Zhong.
"Why did you run out too?"
"Oh, eldest mother and An were debating about Han Zi. I could understand it at first, but then I couldn't understand it at all, so I found an excuse and ran out."
Lu Lu sighed with emotion: "Father An Lei!"
Liu Qi looked at the front and back and cursed: "Why do these servants and the like still follow? General Chai told us to take care of these women-like people!"
Lu Lu's face darkened, "First of all...not all of these servants and doctors are like women...you can't generalize."
Empress Lu seemed to be in a very good mood. She had indeed not gone out for a long time. This time she went out, she had been looking at the surroundings, looking at the endless cultivated land, the bustling city, and the constant traffic. Merchant, the Queen Mother always had a faint smile on her face.
In the palace, the Queen Mother always looked a little lifeless, but this time when she came out, she seemed much younger. During the break, she even threw away her crutches and walked to the farmland accompanied by several grandchildren to talk to the local people. The people asked about the harvest.
The common people had never seen such a big shot before, and they hesitated. But when the old woman talked about farming skills skillfully, the common people felt very friendly, "I don't know that noble people are also engaged in farming?"
Empress Lu, who faced the common people at the bottom and faced the princes and generals, was completely different.
In history, Queen Lu's series of policies after coming to power include: promoting filial piety to the people, reviving those who work hard on the fields, taking exemption from corvee as a preferential measure to encourage farmers to engage in production, reducing land rent, and reinstating the 15-year tax. Modification Han law, abolished the crime of killing three tribes, reduced sentences by evil words, promulgated the atonement law, formulated the annual update of garrison soldiers, eliminated the law of coercion, etc.
This is completely different from her cruel treatment of princes and nobles, and even her own son and daughter. This is a very complicated person.
Until now, Liu Chang's intimidation in the temple is still far inferior to that of the Queen Mother. After all, Liu Chang is very easy to coax. Even if he offends him, he can still survive by saying a few nice words. As for the Queen Mother...if there is no such thing as Wang Ling It's best not to offend him because of his abilities. He was definitely the biggest villain in the early Han Dynasty.
Empress Lu took An's hand, and the other two Zhuzi were also forced to follow the eldest mother.
Empress Lu explained to them the knowledge of farming and mulberry seriously. Liu Xiang and Liu Qi were both afraid of her and had been beaten many times before, so they both listened obediently.
Liu Chang did not disturb them and was giving orders to the local officials.
"Have the salt and iron merchants here ever caused trouble?"
"Your Majesty, if there is any trouble, it has been put down long ago!"
The effect of Liu Chang's personal inspection was very obvious. No one dared to tolerate the salt and iron merchants anymore, for fear that they would cause trouble when the king arrived, so they suppressed them with all their strength and hurried to calm down the matter before Liu Chang arrived. There are many government orders, and they are rushing to implement them without any hesitation.
The effects of private visits in private and massive inspections are obviously different.
Liu Chang is quite familiar with the place, because even if he is not out on patrol, he often goes hunting in various places. Only the three little cubs, who know nothing, follow their eldest mother and listen to the eldest mother's words. Teach them some local basics.
Liu Chang did not leave in a hurry. In this era, traveling is not an easy task, especially for young and old, who may leave in a hurry.
When this group of people arrived at the Liang Kingdom in a hurry, Liang Wang Liu Hui brought everyone in his family and Liang Guo's civil and military officials to greet them.
Liu Hui waited for a long time and was sweating profusely. A fat person like him was prone to sweating most easily, but there was nothing he could do. If Liu Chang arrived, he could just greet him outside the city. But this time it was the Queen Mother who came. Whether it is from the perspective of a son or from the perspective of a prince who wants to survive, he should greet the other party as soon as he enters the Liang Kingdom without neglect.
Zhang Cang lowered his head. He and Liu Chang hadn't seen each other for a long time. If they meet this time, they won't take me back, right?
Liu Hui's children were very happy at the moment. They heard that Father Zhong was coming, and they were all waiting for gifts from Father Zhong.
The two ladies had different expressions at this moment. Mrs. Wang's eyes were full of worry, but Mrs. Lu's eyes were filled with joy.
Madam Lu's biggest supporter is coming. In the past few days, everyone in the Liang Kingdom has become more polite to her.
As a queen, Mrs. Lu was not as favored as Mrs. Wang. This made Mrs. Lu not very satisfied. She knew how happy she was when she learned that the Queen Mother was coming.
From a distance, he saw the frame of King Tang's carriage, and Liu Hui hurriedly stepped forward.
"Hahaha, fifth brother! You're okay?!"
Liu Chang jumped down from the car. The two brothers were extremely excited to see each other. Several Shuzi also hurriedly came forward to pay homage to King Liang. Liu Hui smiled and touched their heads, and then asked: "Ah
Where is the mother?"
"Right behind!"
"Fifth brother... don't be afraid. Just be patient these days and don't get too close to Mrs. Wang."
"I understand."
Liu Chang took Liu Hui to visit Empress Lu. Empress Lu got out of the car and looked at Liu Hui's visit with a very indifferent expression. She just nodded and walked past him. The two kings followed her.
From all the way to the left and right, Mrs. Lu hurriedly walked up and said, "Mom!"
Only then did a smile appear on Queen Lu's face, and she held her hand with a smile, "Long time no see, you are now a mother."
In front of the Queen Mother, Mrs. Lu was completely devoid of her usual arrogance. She lowered her head and looked as shy as a baby.
"Meet my mother."
Mrs. Wang also followed suit and saluted.
"It is appropriate to address the Queen Mother appropriately."
"Meet the Queen Mother."
.......
At the banquet, Liu Hui was restless.
Queen Lu sat in the upper seat, held Madam Lu's hand, and started chatting with a smile.
Liu Chang sat next to the teacher and held his hand tightly.
"Master, you don't know that after you left, the ministers often bullied others, looked down upon others, and did not take them seriously at all!"
"That Zhou Chang, I just told him a few things, and he complained that he couldn't complete them."
"There is also Chen Ping. I asked him to review the memorials, but before it was time, he actually wanted to go back home and didn't do his best to help!"
Hearing these words, Zhang Cang felt frightened.
"Your Majesty... I have made a big mistake. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back and help you until I atone for my sin."
Liu Chang shook his head, "Master, I have only carried out twenty political decrees these days. Zhou Chang and the others were busy and solved it, but they refused. I planned to build a house in the palace and let them move.
Go in, and don’t go back until you finish your work.”
Zhang Cang smiled dryly and did not reply.
Zhang Cang said with a smile: "I understand what the king means, please rest assured... I will assist King Zuoliang well."
"Hahaha, Master is still so smart!"
"I'm just worried that if those people push you out, it will be in great trouble for you."
The two were chatting, but Jin Ting on the side was confused. Why didn't he understand what they meant at all? He could understand every sentence, but why couldn't he understand it when they were connected together?
While Liu Chang and Zhang Cang were working as the Riddler, Queen Lu finally set her sights on Mrs. Wang.
She looked at Mrs. Wang up and down and said, "It's nothing more than asking the King of Liang to marry her without telling her."
Liu Hui remembered Liu Chang's instructions and did not dare to protect her. He just lowered his head helplessly and pretended that he had not heard anything.
Empress Lu did not embarrass Mrs. Wang too much. She just looked at Liu Hui calmly and said, "Prince Liang, it is best to treat everyone equally."
"only!!!"
From the beginning to the end, Liu Chang didn't say anything. He, his fifth brother, was good at everything, just a little... Hey, it didn't matter if he let his mother beat him. Anyway, King Liang didn't make any big mistakes, and neither would his mother.
How about him.
Queen Lu didn't stay here for long, she was anxious to go to Shanfu County.
Empress Lu had not been here for a long, long time. When she approached Shanfu County, she seemed a little excited and was no longer as calm as before. Shanfu County was no different from the counties Liu Chang had seen in the past.
It was an ordinary county town, but to Empress Lu, this was her former home.
Queen Lu kept talking about it since she entered the city. She looked at the buildings around her with a smile that almost overflowed from her face, "This used to be a restaurant... That used to be my uncle's home!"
At this moment, she was sitting on the vertical car, excitedly looking at the familiar buildings around her.
He held An's hand tightly and introduced his hometown to him in detail.
Liu Chang had never seen his mother so happy. She smiled very kindly and kindly. With the support of Liu An and Liu Xiang, she walked in the county town because she had not experienced too many wars.
Because there hasn't been much change here, Queen Lu is still familiar with this place, so she left in a hurry. When she saw her home, she was silent for a long time, and then she laughed.
Grandma's home didn't look very luxurious, and it was far inferior to her uncle's mansion in Chang'an. Empress Lu walked around the mansion, groping for every plant and tree in the old mansion. Everywhere seemed to be...
There is a story. Liu Chang stood quietly at the door, looking at his mother's excitement, and just grinned.
The Queen Mother still has many clansmen here.
When these people heard that the Queen Mother was back, they all came to pay their respects.
Liu Chang didn't like these trivial matters very much, so he went hunting outside the city.
Four horses were running wildly on the field, Liu Chang was at the forefront, and the three little guys were following behind him. They were testing speed here. Obviously, Liu Chang had the bonus of a war horse, and the three guys couldn't catch up at all.
When Liu Chang reined in his horse, the horse raised its front hooves and neighed loudly, making Liu Chang laugh loudly.
"Father Zhong! You're lying! Your horse is faster than ours!"
"Hmph, I obtained my war horse through my own ability. How can this be considered cheating?"
Liu Qi smiled and shouted: "A real man should be like this! Rejoice!!"
Liu Xiang said seriously: "When I am strong, I will go to Hexi to kill the Xiongnu for Zhongfu, take over the Western Regions, expand the territory of the Han Dynasty, and ask them to set up sacrifices to worship Zhongfu!!"
Liu Chang always felt that there was something wrong with this sentence.
Liu Qi also said: "I am going to fight, and I will be crowned king by virtue of my military exploits. I will defeat South Vietnam and take over the southern lands. I will ask them to set up sacrifices and come to worship Father Zhong!"
"Isn't South Vietnam already defeated?"
"Then defeat him again!"
Liu Chang looked at Liu An, who was silent for a moment and said, "I will just stay in Chang'an to worship my father."
"You three bastards, you all can't wait to worship me, right? I'll see you off first!"
Liu Changyang was angry, and with a straight face he mounted his horse and chased after him, but these fools immediately ran away with a smile.
Liu Chang still has high hopes for these three disciples. Among the clan members, these are the most capable. I hope they can all realize their ambitions in the future!
When several people returned to Shanfu County in disgrace and filth, Queen Lu immediately frowned and looked at their clothes.
Liu Chang reacted the fastest. He frowned and cursed: "Mom, these fools insisted on hunting on horseback. I went to chase them back, so they soiled their clothes."
Liu Xiang was stunned, "Auntie! It's..."
"Um?"
Liu Chang squinted his eyes and looked at him.
"Father Zhong is right."
Several of the disciples gave in helplessly. Empress Lu was in a good mood, so she didn't want to care about it, and cursed: "Go and change your clothes! How old you are! You must look like a minister!"
When Liu Chang came back after changing his clothes, Empress Lu had already prepared food, and several people sat down to eat.
"Mom, I looked around and found a big problem."
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"Previously, I ordered various places to reclaim cultivated land. These guys are trying to fool me. I have seen that the cultivated land reclaimed by the government has no intention at all. Many cultivated lands are covered with grass, and no one has removed it... They just want to cultivate it.
How dare you mess up your political achievements like this!"
"There are also the officials, who are all going back and forth in various places, and I happen to see them... They look diligent and diligent, but looking at their appearance, they are white and clean, fat and strong, and they don't look like they are busy.
People? They were also fooling around with me in the lake. They knew they were coming, so they pretended to be cool!"
Liu Chang ate his meal but kept complaining.
Queen Lu said calmly: "You are too eager for quick success and are so happy about success, so the officials will naturally cater to you and use various methods to please you...Besides, the Liang Kingdom is lazy from top to bottom, and their king is like this. Officials
So what?"
"After I return, I will find Prime Minister Zhou and ask him to come up with a solution!"
"Didn't you just call Zhou Chang an old dog in front of Zhang Cang? Why are you now Prime Minister Zhou again?"
"Hahaha, Zhou Chang and the others want to invite Prime Minister Zhang back... and use him as a shield. Naturally, I can't let them get their wish."
"I wonder how happy those people are when we go out this time."
"It's just... they were happy too early. Before I left, I left them a big surprise!"
Liu Chang had a wicked smile on his face.
........
Zhang Buyi returned to the mansion angrily. These traitors in the court were really outrageous!
After the king left, they actually rested at home openly.
I will never come to the office again.
They even often held banquets, drank and had fun. The banquets lasted for three or four days, and the banquets became more and more excessive. At first, Zhang Buyi did not reprimand them. After all, the king was not here, so it was okay to rest for a few days, but just like this
After a long time, they did not return to their original state. Some ministers even drank too much and drove in the city.
They had been suppressed for too long, and after Liu Chang left, they frantically vented their depression.
This is not the case with Zhang Buyi. He hates these sycophants and traitors very much. How dare he do this?! However, although Zhang Buyi is angry, there is nothing he can do about it. Even if he is the censor, there is no way he can go against so many ministers.
While he was sulking in his house, an unexpected guest came.
The person who came was none other than Zhang Shizhi.
Zhang Buji was very unhappy with him, but after learning that he came under the king's order, he still let him into the house.
"What's the matter?"
"Mr. Zhang, before your Majesty left, he specifically gave me the edict and asked me to hand it over to you at this time."
"What is the edict?"
"This is an edict that puts you in charge of major affairs in the DPRK and supervises the officials to do their work."
"What did you say?!"
Zhang Busu stood up abruptly and burst into laughter.
