After about half a cup of tea, a eunuch came in to convey the emperor's order: "The emperor ordered the four highnesses to move to the main hall..."
The four brothers stood up quickly.
Liu Rong held his head high and walked out arrogantly.
Looking at Liu Rong's back, Liu De looked back at his two younger brothers who were obviously very nervous, and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, my father shouldn't be able to ask you questions!"
"Really?" Liu Yan was not sure.
"Of course!" Liu De said to Liu Rong's back: "Don't you see the look of the eldest brother?"
Liu Rong has always been a person who does not have much self-confidence. He was like this in his past life and cannot change it in this life. Therefore, if he goes out with such confidence, his cheap dad must have cheated on him.
Thinking of this, Liu De sighed secretly.
As the eldest son of the emperor, Liu Rong has great advantages. Liu De and even Liu De, if nothing else, in this life is the same as in the previous life, Liu Rong will finally be able to sit on the throne of the prince...
Thinking of this, Liu De felt that he should speed up the communication and coordination with Queen Bo.
While thinking about it, the four brothers slowly walked out of the back hall and came to the main hall of Xuanshi Hall.
At this time, everyone in the entire hall was sitting upright, sitting together according to their status.
The princes and kings of the clan sit on the right, the concubines and young princes, and the princess sit on the left, followed closely by members of the foreign relatives.
The four brothers walked to the middle of the hall and bowed: "My sons and ministers have met my father, the queen, and all the clan uncles!"
Liu De raised his head slightly and saw the cheap daddy sitting on the dragon throne. He also changed his outfit at this moment and put on a formal emperor's dragon robe and a crown on his head.
The next moment, the angry voice of the cheap old man came over: "Liu Rong, Liu De, Liu Yan, Liu Yu, the four princes are all my favorites, and they are also the elders of all the princes. The next day, I will confer the title of king, found the country and build the country."
, to protect the country and the mountains of the Han Dynasty at the top, and to protect the common people at the bottom. The poem goes: like gold and tin, like a gui as a wall. It also goes: There are bandits and gentlemen, and they cannot be embarrassed. Today, all the clans and relatives are by my side. I am following Emperor Taizong Xiaowen.
As a result, I will test you on your homework and political opinions!"
"Liu Rong!" The emperor who was sitting on him stood up.
"My son and I are here!" Liu Rong stepped out of the queue and saluted both sides with confidence.
"Liu De!"
"My son is here!" Liu De also stepped out of the queue and held his hands to both sides.
"Liu Yan!"
"My son is here!"
"Liu Yu!"
"Er... I'm here!" Liu Yu may have been too nervous, and almost stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Liu De reacted quickly and pulled his sleeves in time to stabilize his body and prevent him from falling.
He made a fool of himself.
Even so, Liu Yu's face was not very good, and his hands were trembling.
Fortunately, the cheap dad always loved his son who stuttered. He did not blame him, but said with some pity: "Liu Yu, I promise you don't have to answer, just write it down!"
"Thank you, Father..." Liu Yu was so surprised that even his stuttering problem was almost cured.
Liu De patted him on the shoulder and smiled at him.
In front of everyone, Liu De's image of a caring and protective younger brother was established naturally.
Even the emperor Liu Qi, who didn't care much about Liu De at first, couldn't help but take another look at Liu De when he saw this situation.
In this era, a person who can help the weak and be friendly to his brothers will definitely get extra points.
But Liu Qi only took one more look at Liu De and took a liking to the second son. His main thoughts were on Qi King Liu General sitting on the left.
Liu Qi deeply understood the importance of King Qi's State of Qi.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Qi State remains neutral, it can effectively suppress Jiaodong, Jiaoxi, Jinan and other countries, so that they do not dare to risk their hometowns being taken over, and all their main forces will be sent out.
What's more, the lineage of King Qi is the bloodline of Emperor Gao's eldest son, which has a great influence. It can be said that one hair can affect the whole body.
And this time Qi King Liu Jianglu came to Chang'an to pay his respects in person, which shows that he was still somewhat partial to the imperial court in his heart, and he was someone who could win over him.
Unfortunately, after repeated testing these days, the King of Qi still did not clearly state whether he supported the imperial court's reduction of vassals. He just spoke vaguely and talked nonsense about how the Gao Emperor was like and what the late Emperor was like.
Therefore, Emperor Liu Qicai came up with an idea - letting King Qi see the abilities of the royal family's descendants to reassure him, which might work wonders.
For this reason, Liu Qi did not hesitate to cheat and secretly woke up Liu Rong in advance.
The Emperor Liu Qi took a few steps and then looked at the way King Liu General Lu of Qi looked at his eyes and his nose, and his nose looked at his heart. He knew that if he tested some knowledge and asked a few insignificant questions according to the original plan, he might not be able to understand it.
move.
The emperor cursed in his heart: "Cunning!"
But my inner intention has changed.
He took two steps forward and said: "King Qi!"
"I'm here!" Liu Jianglu, who was sitting on the left, suddenly stood up when he heard the emperor's roll call.
In fact, Liu Jianglu came to Chang'an this time because he had received too much favor and care from the Empress Dowager Bo. This time the Empress Dowager passed away. If he had not come, he would have had his backbone pointed out.
To be honest, Liu Jianglu is actually very dissatisfied with the emperor who is currently sitting on the dragon throne.
At that time, the princes and ministers jointly destroyed the Lu, and the king of Qi made great efforts.
But in the end, the throne was inexplicably passed to Liu Heng, the acting king at that time. The reason was still inexplicable: "The king of Qi's family Si Jun, Si Jun, is also a wicked person."
They were obviously afraid that King Qi's family would be too powerful and difficult to control, so they said that King Qi's mother-in-law at that time was a bad guy, just like Zhu Lu.
No matter who it was, I would definitely be dissatisfied.
Why is it that I am the one bleeding and sweating, sitting on the dragon throne, and someone else is ruling the world?
It was not because the late emperor and the late empress dowager took pity on Liu Jianglu's family and gave them generous rewards many times, otherwise Qi would have rebelled long ago!
It was because of his love for the incense and the fact that he was being shunned by the prime minister and the captain of the country that Liu Jianglu had to come to Chang'an for the funeral.
Therefore, the moment Liu Jianglu was named, it was quite a surprise.
But after all, he is the king of a country, not the vassal king who was raised like a pig in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but a king with real power. Liu Jianglu responded quickly. He immediately came out to pay homage: "What is your mission, Your Majesty?"
Reluctant to let go of the child and unable to trap the wolf, with this thought in mind, the emperor took two steps and finally made up his mind and said: "I have heard about the origins of King Qi's family for a long time. In this examination, King Qi might as well write the questions for me!"
As soon as the emperor said these words, the relaxation and comfort on Liu Rong's face disappeared instantly.
Liu De was also stunned.
There was only one word left in his mind: butterfly effect!
