Chapter 1519: Defend the Temple of the Emperor Xiandi
Liu Pengzu's words immediately caused the entire hall to fall into silence.
Both Liu Yan, who was gritting his teeth, and Liu Fei, who was upright and upright, both lowered their heads.
How to deal with Liu Rong?
This is indeed a difficult question!
Kill him? Obviously impossible!
When a younger brother kills an older brother, this is called parricide. It is a serious crime that subverts the general ethics.
Although every one of the brothers wants Liu Rong to die immediately, no one is willing to do such a stupid thing if everyone wants to trade their own lives, their bright futures and futures with Liu Rong, a dead dog.
thing.
Instigating impeachment?
It’s also unrealistic. In recent years, haven’t there been many courtiers impeaching Liu Rong?
Lantai is even filled with all kinds of bullets against Liu Rong, but has anyone hurt a hair on Liu Rong's body? No!
Send someone to spread rumors and destroy his reputation?
Does Liu Rong still have a reputation now?
Could it be that asking someone to beat him up would be even more nonsense.
The princes and kings in Chang'an were protected by the military, and the Yulin Guards and the Huben Guards did the guard work.
Even if Zhuan Zhu was alive and Yu Rang was resurrected, he could not easily break through the heavy protection of Yu Lin Guard and Hu Ben Guard and get close to Liu Rong.
Unless this person is a noble or above.
Therefore, for a while, all the kings were looking at each other, and they were extremely embarrassed.
Because they discovered that there was nothing they could do about Liu Rong.
But if you don't show Liu Rong some color, how can you be worthy of your own blood?
If Liu Rong is disobedient and unfilial, but he and others cannot criticize and spurn him in front of the people of the world, wouldn't that be telling the people of the world that they are the same as Liu Rong?
The kings suddenly fell into a paradox - Liu Rong was unfilial, so they had to teach him a lesson, but they had no way to teach him a good lesson.
At the critical moment, Liu Yan, the king of Jiangdu, stood up and said, "Brothers, don't worry! According to the rules, when Huainan enters the dynasty, he must first go to Deyang Temple! We brothers, each lead people to block Deyang Palace to prevent this traitor.
Go in and desecrate the temple of the late emperor, so that the ancestral temple will not be humiliated and the ancestral gods will be angry!"
Deyang Temple is the temple of the late Emperor Renzong Xiaojing.
According to the ancestral system, when a prince dynasty in Chang'an, the first place he should go to is the temple of the emperor with whom he has the most direct blood relationship, or the ancestor of his line, to pay respects to his ancestors.
For example, when the kings of Qi, Lu and Chengyang came back from the past, they would first go to Gaomiao and Taimiao.
The king of Dai, the king of Liang, the king of Korea, etc. wanted to go to Gu Chengmiao, Taizong.
Liu Fei and others were naturally going to pay their respects to the late emperor.
As soon as Liu Yan made this suggestion, all the kings nodded in praise.
In this way, as long as the Deyang Palace is blocked and Liu Rong is not allowed to pay homage to the late emperor's clothes and divine master, it is tantamount to telling the world that Liu Rong and we are not from the same family. We are loyal ministers and filial sons, and that is the rebellious son of a foolish emperor!
But if this happens, things will get serious.
Deyang Palace is not in Chang'an City.
It is in Yangling City, in the tomb of the late emperor, blocking the temple of the late emperor. This kind of thing will definitely cause an uproar and be known to the whole world.
By then, the court hall will probably become the center of attention.
Therefore, some of the timid ones, such as Liu Yu and Liu Pengzu, all shrank back.
But Liu Fei stood up and said, "Brothers and brothers, we must do this today!"
Liu Fei had been staying in Mongolia for several months. He led his cavalry around every day and was busy directing the construction of cities and opening up settlements. Therefore, he already had the temperament of a superior person. He stood up with his sword drawn.
He said to his brothers: "As a son of man, if we can even turn a blind eye to unfilial behavior, how will the people of the world treat us?"
"Even if the emperor wants to impose a law, I will admit it!" Liu Fei dragged his long sword and shouted categorically: "No matter what, Huainan cannot let Huainan desecrate the Deyang Temple, disturb the spirit of the late emperor, and make the ancestors angry!"
"In that case, we will not be able to atone for our sins even if we die a hundred times!"
After saying that, Liu Fei ordered: "Come here, summon the guards and pass the order: Those who belong to the Liu family are left-handed!"
Although the Han Dynasty had systems and laws that stipulated that troops could not be mobilized beyond the fifty-man limit without the Tiger Talisman, otherwise it would be regarded as rebellion!
However, the princes and kings have their own private armed forces, and this armed force can be mobilized without the tiger talisman.
And there will be no idle people making fuss about this matter.
As for Liu Fei's Mongolia, as a border development state, it had great military autonomy.
Liu Fei's kingdom has more than 15,000 soldiers, including more than 5,000 cavalry. In times of emergency, he can decide on his own to mobilize the army, issue mobilization orders, and organize exercises.
Of course, he still has no right to intervene in the daily management of the army and the appointment and dismissal of officers.
But, even so, he is still one of the most powerful among the princes and kings of the Han Dynasty.
When he entered Beijing this time, Liu Fei brought back five hundred cavalry guards. These cavalrymen were all soldiers trained by him. Although they had not yet been tested in actual combat, they were already quite capable.
Seeing Liu Fei striding out, Liu Yan couldn't sit still. He immediately ordered the eunuchs on his left and right: "Give me my order: assemble the guards immediately and follow me to Yangling to defend the temple of the late emperor!"
What Liu Yan said was tantamount to forcing others into a situation where they could only follow.
Liu Duan, Liu Yu, Liu Pengzu, Liu Sheng and others had no choice but to give their own instructions: "Order generals and follow the others to defend the late emperor's ancestral temple!"
In an instant, the entire Chang'an City was awakened.
Liu Yan took the lead, Liu Fei followed closely, and other kings also followed with their guards. In an instant, an army of nearly two thousand infantry and cavalry was formed in Chang'an City.
Led by five great kings, this army marched toward Deyang Palace in a mighty manner.
Along the way, the royal flag was fluttering, and the flags of the five princes and kings were fluttering in the wind. The soldiers were even more furious, shouting: "Defend the country! Defend the Liu family! Defend the late emperor's ancestral temple!"
The soldiers, civilians and officials along the way looked sideways and dumbfounded as they watched this huge team charging towards Yangling with great momentum.
In the market, countless people were talking about it.
The gossipers were even more excited, and some even climbed up to the top of the city and took out a precious telescope to watch.
There is internal strife in the old Liu family, what breaking news!
The entire Chang'an bureaucracy was immediately in a state of chaos.
Five kings rushed to Yangling to stop Huainan from visiting the temple?
Big news!
What a big scandal!
Zongzheng Liu Jing, who was in charge of coordinating the clan, and Taichang Dou Pengzu, who was in charge of etiquette, were so frightened that they fought with each other. They ran to Weiyang Palace to report the news and sent someone to inform the East Palace.
If there really happens to be a fight between the Huainan King's guards and the guards of other kings, I'm afraid there will be no way to solve the problem.
As the people directly responsible and in charge, it would be very difficult for them to die...
