Mrs. Qi wiped her tears while Liu Bang looked at him helplessly.
Liu Ruyi stood in front of them, helpless.
"My son is about to show off his talents...how can his mother stop him?"
"Shut up!"
Mrs. Qi cursed, then looked at Liu Bang and begged: "Your Majesty, Ruyi is young, how can you send him to the fief? I only have a son in the palace. If he leaves too... Then I will live
What else does it mean?”
Facing Madam Qi's plea, Liu Bang didn't know what to say.
The ministers were so determined that they all asked Liu Ruyi to go to the feudal country. Of course Liu Bang understood why. On the one hand, this was Empress Lu's revenge. After Mrs. Qi said those words to Liu Chang, Liu Bang had already expected that Lu
I will not let Mrs. Qi go in the future... On the other hand, it is also because of the previous incident of changing the prince.
The ministers were very satisfied with the prince, and no one wanted to replace the prince. If Ruyi left Chang'an, the threat to Liu Ying would be completely lost, and Liu Ying would be able to inherit the throne with peace of mind. This is why Zhao Yao proposed this
This is the reason why all the ministers immediately followed the suggestion.
After all, Liu Bang's prince was regarded as the perfect successor in the hearts of the officials. Liu Ruyi was not bad either, but was far inferior to his elder brother.
Even the prime minister insisted on sending Liu Ruyi to the feudal state, which was a bit troublesome. As the emperor, Liu Bang could of course give a direct order to let Ruyi stay. However, even the emperor had to be reasonable in doing things, forcing his ministers and officials to stay.
The queen did it, and even Liu Bang had to think about whether it was worth it.
Liu Ruyi felt aggrieved. He really wanted to go to the feudal country. He was confident that he would be able to achieve great achievements in the feudal country and become a wise king of the Han Dynasty.
He didn't understand why his mother, father, and brother would oppose it.
Liu Bang looked at him, hesitating in his heart.
He really liked this son who looked exactly like him, but how to solve this problem?
Mrs. Qi cried and cried, which made Liu Bang's mood become worse and worse.
"Okay! Stop crying!"
"All this is because you can't control your mouth! This time, I will think of a solution, but if you dare to talk nonsense again in the future, I will personally drive Ruyi away from the country!"
In the Jiaofang Hall, Xiao Liu Chang rested his head on Empress Lu's lap and took a nap.
Empress Lu was holding the bamboo slip with her left hand and looking at it carefully, while her right hand was gently stroking Liu Chang's back, coaxing him to sleep peacefully.
Suddenly, a man walked into the Jiaofang Hall with a big smile.
Queen Lu suddenly raised her head and frowned.
Liu Bang, who was laughing, stopped immediately like a duck being strangled by the neck. He glanced at Liu Chang, who was sleeping soundly, and tiptoed to Queen Lu, and sat down slowly.
"Why is this guy sleeping in the middle of the day?"
Liu Bang asked in a low voice.
"He has been in a bad mood these past few days and couldn't sleep well at night."
Queen Lu replied coldly.
Liu Bang was stunned. He had been thinking about something for a long time, but he could no longer say it.
He cleared his throat and hesitated for a moment, "Well, let him sleep for a while..."
"Is Your Majesty here to visit the Chief?"
"I...uh...yes...came to visit him."
"That's good. I thought your majesty was here to act as a lobbyist for Ruyi. It turns out that your majesty has other princes in mind?"
"This...of course I won't be partial..."
Liu Bang scratched his head and then said: "I also feel guilty. I have been busy with state affairs these years and have no time to teach the princes. Now these princes are still young and they all need the queen to discipline them personally.
..."
"Well, your Majesty, don't worry. I will teach you well. If nothing happens, please go back."
"This is also my dormitory, why should I leave?"
"Ying, Chang, and Heng are all your heirs, why do you favor one over the other?"
"I don't have one!"
"In the days when you and I were absent, Ying worked hard. Even during the war, the refugees were properly accommodated. The young and strong were all fighting, but the spring planting was not delayed. Corvee work was repeated frequently, but the people did not complain.
You didn't reward me, you didn't even say a word of encouragement."
"I have been working on improving machinery. During these days, I have been working in the fields for a long time, trying every possible means to improve farm tools. I want to make some contributions to the world, but you turn a blind eye!"
"Heng is a successful scholar, and Gai Gong loves him very much. He has told me many times that he wants to take him under his wing and teach him more advanced content. Does Your Majesty know about these things?"
"Does His Majesty only have Mrs. Qi and his son Liu Ruyi in his eyes?"
"Isn't your Majesty afraid?"
"What am I afraid of?"
"When one day, you and I are no longer here, and the other princes join forces to kill King Zhao because of His Majesty's preference, what will Your Majesty do?"
Until Liu Bang left the Jiaofang Palace, he could not say the words "stay as you wish". After several attempts, he was scolded by Empress Lu. Liu Bang left here helplessly and just returned to the Xuanshi Palace.
, the prime minister came over.
Xiao He found Liu Bang with only one purpose, to execute Han Xin.
His attitude was very firm, and it was very likely that the emperor would not leave here unless he agreed.
Liu Bang felt a little strange.
"It was you who recommended the Marquis of Huaiyin to me in the first place, and now you are the one who firmly requests me to execute him. What is the reason for this?"
Xiao He said seriously: "I recommended him in the past because of his talents, which can help His Majesty calm down the troubled times. But now I want to execute him because the world is at peace and can no longer experience wars."
Liu Bang asked with a smile: "I thought you and the Marquis of Huaiyin were very good confidants."
"That is indeed the case, but it is precisely because I know him that I asked your Majesty to execute him!"
"If your Majesty forgives Han Xin today, I predict that he will definitely cause chaos in the future, and the Han Dynasty will experience war again..."
The old prime minister standing in front of Liu Bang was already old. In these years, he was probably the busiest person in Liu Bang's group. Liu Bang and others bulldozed the original house, and Xiao He was working as a bricklayer.
A high-rise building named Dahan was rebuilt on the ruins, which can shelter the people of the world and make them happy.
He will never tolerate anyone destroying this building. He cannot watch war sweep across this land again. He spent the first half of his life fighting against war, and the second half of his life was fighting against careerists.
. He firmly supported Liu Ying because he knew that if Liu Ying came to the throne, the war would go away and the world would truly become a peaceful world.
This land really needs peace. After hundreds of years of war, millions of people died in battle. Behind the blooming of countless sparks of thought, the howling of this land can be vaguely heard.
After serving as prime minister, Xiao He has been making decisions for the people for the past ten years, doing things to improve people's livelihood, appeasing people everywhere, and wanting them to live a good life. This kind of thinking of Xiao He was widely used in Han Dynasty.
The beginning has continued, and his successors, whether it is the domineering queen, whether it is his enemy, or a certain fourth child who does not want to be named, are all continuing to move forward according to Xiao He's path.
If Wenjing's rule was the basis for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to conquer powerful enemies, then Xiao He was the basis for Wenjing's rule.
Facing the prime minister's pleading, Liu Bang seemed to have thought of something.
"Did the Prime Minister's words come from the Queen's instructions?"
Xiao He was shocked, "Why did your Majesty say this??"
Liu Bang grinned and said, "Joking."
"I will never let the Marquis of Huaiyin go. The Marquis of Huaiyin rebelled twice. If I let him go again, all the princes in the world will follow his example!"
Xiao He saluted Liu Bang with satisfaction, "That's very good!"
After seeing off the prime minister, Liu Bang decided to meet the Marquis of Huaiyin in person.
Seeing Han Xin with disheveled hair and bruises all over his body, Liu Bang felt uncomfortable. He asked angrily: "Why do you humiliate the Marquis of Huaiyin so much?"
The jailer answered truthfully: "This is the Queen's order. Criminals must be whipped every three days... Every seven days..."
"Okay! Don't do this again!"
"only!"
Liu Bang looked at Han Xin inside through the wooden fence, "Why are you doing this?"
Han Xin raised his head, there was no fear in his eyes, "But he was deceived by others."
"oh?"
Liu Bang heard that Han Xin seemed to be a little subdued. You should know that this tough guy never gave in even after being caught by him. This made Liu Bang a little surprised.
"Although you were bewitched by others, you have rebelled twice and your crimes are unforgivable. I decided to execute you. It is a pity for your talent."
