"Brother Yan is free to come to my place today?" As soon as Liu Yan came in, Liu De asked in a slightly reproachful tone. Although there was a smile on his face, Liu Yan felt a little scared when he saw it in his eyes.
.
It is true that this brother's authority is becoming more and more powerful day by day.
In the royal family, when one has great authority, he will immediately gain influence.
The reason is very simple. When one person can control the destiny of another person, when the person being dominated sees the person who dominates, psychological pressure will be created invisibly, and they will subconsciously lower their posture, and even be willing to be subordinates and slaves.
Just like Liu Bei of the Three Kingdoms, when they were sworn brothers in Taoyuan, they were comparable to brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Once they rose to power, they immediately became monarchs and ministers. Although the sworn friendship was there, in fact it was already different between the superiors and the inferiors.
The same is true for Liu De now. In Liu Yan's eyes, this brother is both an elder brother and a monarch.
Therefore, Liu De only took charge of the editor for a while, but Liu Yan was already frightened and worried, and he quickly smiled and said: "Brother, please forgive me, I am busy running around these days, and I really can't get away to visit my brother!"
Liu De nodded after hearing this. Regardless of whether this was an excuse or not, at least Liu De showed his attitude and it was not in vain for Liu De to pity him.
"Brother Yan, sit down..." Liu De invited Liu Yan to the seat. The two brothers held hands and sat together intimately.
"Has it been decided yet?" Liu De asked.
"Back to Brother Emperor, Zongzheng has already decided to stay in Hejian!" Liu Yan lowered his head and said with gratitude on his face: "If it weren't for Brother Emperor, I would have been banished to Changsha like Liu Fa..."
He stood up and bowed solemnly, saying: "Brother, I have no way to repay you for your great kindness..."
"Get up quickly, you and I are brothers and sisters, why do you have to do this?" Liu De smiled and quickly helped him up: "Besides, the thunder, rain and dew are all produced by the king and father, what does it have to do with me?"
Liu Fa was banished to Changsha Kingdom. This is not surprising.
Liu Fa's biological mother Tang Ji was from a humble background and had always been unknown in the court. Honest people were always bullied!
"Who is Linjiang Kingdom?" Liu De asked.
"Reporting to the emperor brother, it's Liu Pengzu!" Liu Yan replied.
Liu Pengzu is Jia Ji's eldest son. He was named King of Guangchuan in his previous life, and was moved to King Zhao after Wu Chu. Logically speaking, he should not be reduced to being driven to Linjiang Kingdom.
"Who is Runan?" Liu De asked warily.
"Liu Duan!"
Liu De let out a sigh of relief. Everything was in chaos. The King of Runan in his previous life was Liu Fei! His intuition told him that there was going to be a big problem.
"Where is Huaiyang?" Liu De asked in a deep voice.
"Prince Liu Sheng!"
Liu De took a deep breath, and he finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
All the kings who should be crowned have been crowned. But Liu Fei and Liu Rong have not made any move, which immediately laid a shadow and hidden danger for Liu De's future.
Think about it, except for Liu Yan, the remaining three adult princes in the royal family have not been crowned kings. What message does this send to the outside world?
"Is it the emperor's mind?" Liu De speculated, but then he shook his head, it was impossible!
The emperor's mentality shouldn't be like this!
Everyone knows what it means when the third son is in Beijing.
This means cruel palace fighting.
The numerous bloodstains on the Spring and Autumn history books, and the endless killings of fathers, sons, and brothers in the Chu court during the Warring States period reminded all the kings who had seen how bloody and cruel the court battles were.
It is unlikely that any rational king would engage in such a dangerous matter.
As a result, Liu De quickly calmed down.
"I don't know what happened to cheap daddy... he started to lose his childish temper intermittently..." Liu De sighed.
The emperor is also a human being, and he is a human being with seven emotions and six desires, joy, anger, sorrow, and joy. Those who can perfectly control their emotions and always analyze rationally are saints, and they only exist in fantasy and myth.
No matter how wise the kings in history were, there were times when they were confused. Didn’t even Emperor Taizu of the later dynasties suffer a huge setback in his later years?
As for Liu De's cheap dad, it's naturally impossible to avoid this.
In a moment of extreme anger, I made many mistakes.
But the difference between a wise king and a mediocre king is that the wise king at least knows how to find a way out for himself.
Just like Liu Dehuang's grandfather, when he imprisoned and killed Huainan Li Wang Liu Chang, he was frightened by the huge discussion in the world. However, the emperor could not be wrong. He could not admit his mistake. What should he do? He made Liu Chang's three sons kings.
Thinking of this, Liu De felt much more relaxed. After sending Liu Yan away, he immediately sent Wang Dao to find out how many ministers in Chang'an City went to Ganquan today?
Half an hour later, Wang Dao came back and reported that Prime Minister Shen Tujia, Yushi Dafu Tao Qing, Nei Shi Chao Cuo, Da Xing Wang Hui, Ting Wei Zhang Ou and Lieutenants Zhou Yafu and Zongzheng Liu Ji all left early in the morning.
Ganquan Palace.
After listening to this, Liu De finally felt relieved.
These courtiers may have different political views, or may be conflicted and wary of each other. However, as long as it is not the end of the dynasty and the ministers still have some integrity, they cannot slack off on this matter.
Because this is a dispute based on the country, and it is also related to the interests of all people in the world, whether public or private, there is no room for retreat.
…………………………
In Ganquan Palace, Emperor Liu Qi looked at the civil and military officials kneeling in front of him with a headache, and his face twitched.
Of course he knew what was going on.
In fact, he felt a little regretful at this moment.
Yesterday he was indeed a little reckless. Now that I think about it, it's ridiculous that he is in his thirties or forties and he is still arguing with a son who is fifteen or sixteen years old.
However, the emperor cannot be wrong!
How could the emperor, who was ordered by heaven, make mistakes?
If the emperor is wrong, then there must be something wrong with the world!
So, he let out a long sigh, pretended not to know, and asked, "Why are you here, gentlemen?"
He looked at the ministers up and down, helped them up one by one, and said, "Did something big happen?"
"Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Shen Tujia has always been a straight-tempered person. Seeing the emperor's appearance, he stamped his feet, knelt down again and said: "Yesterday you ordered Zong Zheng and finalized the list of canonizations. After reading it carefully, I found that there is something very strange about it.
OK!"
Shen Tujia kowtowed and said: "In the Gao emperor system, when the prince is older, he must be crowned king and join the country. Only the prince can stay in Chang'an and always be at your Majesty's side!"
Chao Cuo, the internal history official, also paid homage: "Your Majesty, I know very well that your Majesty loves his son and cannot bear to keep his father and son away from each other. However, this is the ancestral system, and the ancestral temple is safe because of it. Even when Emperor Gao was in favor of King Zhao, he could not tolerate it.
We must send him off to his country with tears in his eyes!"
Lieutenant Zhou Yafu was more direct. He worshiped directly: "I thought I would build the crown prince to install the ancestral temple!"
There was a leader, and the other ministers immediately agreed: "I would like to ask your Majesty to build the prince's temple in order to install the ancestral temple!"
Emperor Liu Qi suddenly felt that his head was getting bigger.
Are you going to establish a crown prince now?
no!
Now that the crown prince has been established, what will King Liang do?
Liu Qi also planned to use Liang Wang to protect himself from wind and rain!
So, he took a step and said, "I don't remember this?"
He waved his hand to summon a eunuch and asked: "Zhang De, did you take the list of canonizations I wrote yesterday and pass it on to Zong Zheng?"
"Your Majesty, it was handled by this slave!" Zhang De knelt down and replied.
"You bitch slave..." Emperor Liu Qi kicked him down and said angrily: "You must have missed some words. Come on, pull him out and give me thirty beatings with the cane as a warning!"
After that, without any explanation, he asked the guards on the left and right to pick up Zhang De and drag him out. Then, bursts of miserable howls could be heard.
After the emperor Liu Qi taught Zhang De a lesson, he turned around and said to the ministers with a smile: "Prime Minister, please bring me the list of canonizations..."
Ministers, look at me and I will look at you.
Will the text on the silk book be missed?
Ahem, even a three-year-old wouldn’t believe it!
Why does this plot of finding a scapegoat look more and more familiar? Isn't it a trick that the late emperor often played when he was in power?
In those days, what was the name of the eunuch who was the scapegoat for the late emperor?
Deng Tong!
However, for ministers, the process is not important, the result is important!
PS: The third update~Go and code the fourth update immediately~
