"Go and invite the King of Liang and the King of Jiangdu to see me." Liu Che turned to Wang Dao and said. After thinking about it, he seemed to think it was inappropriate. Liu Che added: "Invite the King of Liang first, and then Jiangdu. Jiangdu is better than the King of Liang."
Half an hour later”
"promise!"
Looking at Wang Dao's retreating figure, Liu Che pursed his lips.
In the Han Dynasty, sending a prince to hell was not as simple as in later generations.
Not only do we need to get conclusive evidence of the other party, but we also have to prove that this guy is indeed a morally bankrupt, incurable scum of society. If we don't kill him, the world will be in chaos, God will be angry, and the people will be too.
Fearful and restless.
Just like Wu and Chu before, even if they knew clearly that the two princes and kings of Wu and Chu had evil intentions, the court could only cut down the vassalage.
In the Han Dynasty, I wanted to make a prince and king deserve to die.
Just proving that he is a bad guy is not enough!
Under normal circumstances, as long as it is not treason, unfilial piety, incest, and other heinous crimes such as treason and heinous crimes.
It is the result of cutting down the feudal state and reprimanding it to death.
At best, they could force him to commit suicide by taking poison.
Do you want to impose a canonical punishment on a prince?
It's almost impossible.
Like now, even if it is at the court meeting tomorrow, Liu Che will defy all opinions and let Ting Wei try the case.
Even if Liu Pi was captured without any defense.
In the end, Liu Piguang just managed to survive and was deprived of a county's fiefdom, and then he was fined three drinks. This will not happen again.
However, Liu Che absolutely does not want to see such a result.
As the saying goes, a wildfire never burns out, but springs again when the spring breeze blows.
Now that you have decided to take action, let's simply eliminate the root cause without leaving any future troubles.
Liu Che didn't want to leave a big trouble for his descendants!
"Kings of Qilu hum," Liu Che snorted coldly in his nostrils.
Liu Biguang didn't cause trouble this time, and Liu Che might not have remembered the glorious past of their brothers and their family's tradition of rebellion.
The descendants of King Qi Liu Fei and the royal family of Liu Che have a blood feud!
First of all, it can be said that the throne of Liu Che's line was snatched from the mouth of Liu Xiang, King Ai of Qi.
At least, that's what Liu Fei's sons think.
Then, the hands of the royal family of Liu Che's line were stained with the blood of Liu Fei's son.
How did King Ai die?
Liu Che couldn't be more clear about this matter.
In the process of annihilating Zhu Lu, Liu Xiang was so strong that he could even wear armor and kill people.
He died less than a year after Taizong ascended the throne.
The cause of death was 'suffering from depression and sudden death.'
This cause of death could not be deceived not only by Liu Xiang's shrewd brothers, but also by a three-year-old child.
Therefore, Liu Xingju, the king of Jibei, was very unconvinced and decisively seized the opportunity of the Han-Hungarian war to raise troops to rebel.
Then, Liu Xingju and his whole family were naturally killed.
In addition, in the original history, Jiaodong, Jiaoxi, Jinan, and Zichuan were supposed to rebel.
There are also Jibei and Qi who attempted rebellion.
All Liu Fei's descendants are traitors and traitors!
Not a single good thing!
Thinking like this, Liu Che got angrier and angrier.
No one will be happy if they raise a bunch of white-eyed wolves.
Half an hour later, Wang Dao came to report: "Your Majesty, King Liang is waiting for the edict outside the palace!"
"Xuan!" Liu Che said immediately without thinking.
Not long after, Liang Wang Liu Wu walked in high-spirited. He bowed slightly to Liu Che and said, "Your Majesty, Liang Wang Liu Wu, pays homage to your Majesty. I wonder what important matters your Majesty has urgently summoned me to do?"
Liu Che stood up and said with a smile: "Uncle Emperor, don't be too polite. We are all one family. These formalities can be used in front of outsiders. In private, Uncle Emperor and I can meet each other as family members."
When Liu Wu heard this, although he was extremely happy in his heart, he still said: "Your Majesty, the etiquette must not be discarded, and my husband, in those days, the Supreme Emperor treated Gao Emperor with a broom."
However, his waist straightened unconsciously.
Liu Che looked at it and didn't take it seriously.
Liu Che wouldn't pay attention to such insignificant details.
Of course, the main reason was that Liu Che focused on Liu Wu's small treasury, which was recorded in historical records as a gold reserve of more than 400,000 gold and hundreds of millions of minted coins!
To a certain extent, Liu Wu is now richer than Liu Che!
But today, Liu Che came to Liu Wu not to steal his wealth.
"Uncle, please sit down and talk." Liu Che smiled and asked someone to prepare a seat for Liu Wu. After the other party sat down, Liu Che said, "Uncle, have you heard about Jinan?"
Liu Armed Forces acted as if he didn't know anything at all, shook his head, and asked: "Your Majesty, what happened in Jinan?"
Seeing this, Liu Che shook his head inwardly. Liu Wu was obviously pretending to be stupid and didn't want to get into this muddy water.
But Liu Che had already made up his mind to drag Liu Wu into the water.
The reason is very simple. First, Liu Wu is senior enough.
At least in name, he was the eldest brother of Jinan King Liu Piguang, and also the eldest brother among the princes and kings of the clan.
His seniority is second only to Zongzheng Liu Li and Honghou Liu Fu.
Secondly, as the only surviving son of Emperor Taizong and a compatriot of the late emperor, Liang Wang Liu Wu naturally had a special status within the clan. At certain times, Liu Wu could serve as the clan's uncle and enforce family laws.
this point is very important!
Even though Liu Piguang is breaking the law, in fact, this is still a family matter within the Liu family.
Since it is a household matter, of course it should be handled by parents or elders.
Others can only watch the show obediently.
Although as the head of the Liu clan, Liu Che does have the qualifications and status to decide Liu Piguang's life and death.
However, it happened that Liu Che was not suitable to ask for Liu Piguang's severe punishment in person.
The reason is very simple. In terms of seniority, Liu Che is just a nephew.
Even among monarchs and ministers, there is no precedent for a nephew to end up personally and send his uncle to the guillotine.
If Liu Wu were to open the door, this problem would disappear.
Because it is natural for the elder brother to teach and even reprimand the younger brother for doing evil and embarrassing himself.
It is also in line with people’s three views and advanced universal values.
When Liu Che heard this, he laughed twice.
"Uncle Emperor, don't hide it in front of your own family." Liu Che waved his hand to reject the attendants and eunuchs and maids in the palace. Then he walked down the steps, looked at Liu Wu's face, and said: "Qi mourns the heirs of King Hui, and the emperor uncle. Follow.
I have never been the same person!"
After hearing this, Liu Wu raised his head, looked at Liu Che, and nodded.
There is no need to worry about anything on this issue.
If Liu Fei's son and Liu Heng's son could go against each other, it would be the most ridiculous thing in the world!
To put it simply, if Liu Xiang was the one who ascended the throne back then, now Liu Wu can enjoy life and drink in Suiyang City, and can Liu Che give orders in Weiyang Palace?
I'm afraid they are all chewing the sand in Daiguo
What’s even more frightening is that you may not even have to chew the sand
What Liu Che took advantage of was Liu Wu's subconscious mind.
Liu Che knew very well that when he talked to Liu Wu about the legal system, morality and the world, he was playing the piano to an ox.
Not only would Liu Wu not listen, he might even develop a rebellious mentality.
Think about it, today the emperor can "enforce the law" just because Liu Piguang "conscripted more people".
Tomorrow, will the emperor take action against himself because he accidentally did something wrong?
The reason why the clan princes and princes side with Liu Piguang now basically has this mentality.
Therefore, when facing Liu Wu, Liu Che must not talk about the law and people's will.
That's no use!
This is true even for a young man like Liu Wu!
But Liu Che knew very well that the old Liu family had never been a harmonious family.
In fact, let alone the royal family!
It is an ordinary family among the people. For the sake of family property, they have been fighting for a long time and have not interacted with each other. They are even like brothers who are enemies of the bandit. Since ancient times, there have been as many as a handful.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are conflicts.
As for Liu Fei's disciples from Qilu, they also had many conflicts with each other.
"At the beginning, when Liu Xingju in Jibei raised his troops to rebel, Taizong said: These are not my ministers!" Liu Che said slowly.
Every descendant of Emperor Taizong will definitely hate Liu Xingju with gnashing of teeth.
The reason is not that he rebelled. There were many rebel princes and kings. In terms of destructive power and influence, Wu Chu was much more terrifying than Liu Xingju!
But the problem with Liu Xingju is that the banner he raised was "the acting king is not the son of Emperor Gao".
This directly denies that the blood of the Liu Che brothers, Liu Wu and his sons, as well as the royal family of the Daiwang line is noble and legitimate.
In comparison, Wu Chu's rebellion can only be regarded as a minor problem at best.
As long as the suppression continues and the king is defeated and the bandits are defeated, there will naturally be no problem.
But Liu Xingju's rebellion was different.
Apart from other things, any descendant of Liu Heng, as long as he thinks of a guy named Liu Xingju, he actually raised a banner to deny the nobility and purity of his own bloodline.
There won't be a second thought other than tearing that guy into ten thousand pieces in my heart.
Liu Xingju was the third son of King Liu Fei of Qi.
His elder brother was Liu Xiang, the King of Qi who once competed with Taizong for the throne.
Liu Piguang is the younger brother of Liu Xingju.
So, here comes the problem.
The eldest brother and the third brother are both resentful and full of malice towards the royal family of Liu Che. What will the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh think in their hearts?
Didn't they hate the emperor of Chang'an in their hearts?
Have you ever secretly cursed the descendants of Taizong?
What he saw in his previous life told Liu Che: These guys really had a grudge against the royal family of Liu Che's lineage, and even wanted to kill them quickly. In the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu, almost all Liu Fei's descendants were involved.
Except for the King of Chengyang who sat on the side of Chang'an, the other brothers all followed Liu Bi in rebellion.
"For the sake of future generations, I am determined to eliminate this serious problem!" Liu Che looked into Liu Wu's eyes and said, "Please give me a helping hand, uncle!"
Liu Wu listened and nodded heavily.
Get rid of those descendants of Liu Fei in Qilu and remove them from the list of Liu clan princes and kings.
This matter is not only good for Liu Che, but also good for Liu Wu!
At the very least, from now on, Liu Wu's descendants no longer have to worry about being tricked from behind by the kings of Qi and Lu.
"Uncle Wang will be asked to speak impartially during the court meeting tomorrow!" Liu Che said with satisfaction.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, I know what to do!" Liu Wu said.
"Good!" Liu Che said with a smile. After thinking about it, Liu Che felt that this was not safe enough.
After all, Liu Wu's attitude and stance are notoriously changeable.
What if Liu Wu suddenly changes his tune when he goes to court tomorrow?
Must spend money!
"After Jinan is eliminated from the country, I intend to change it into a county." Liu Che said mysteriously: "I heard that Uncle Wang had a new son not long ago. I don't know if he has named it yet?"
When Liu Wu heard this, he immediately beamed with joy.
His son was still born to his queen.
What I have to admit is that although Liu Wu has many shortcomings, everyone can only admire him when it comes to his single-mindedness and infatuation.
A vassal king of the Han Dynasty, he was also the caring little cotton-padded jacket of the Empress Dowager in the East Palace. He owned a huge feudal kingdom and endless property.
But for more than 20 years, Liu Wu always favored and was loyal to his queen, and never changed his mind. At most, he only indulged in friendship occasionally.
So far, all Liu Wu's sons are from his queen.
In the feudal era, this was simply an incredible myth.
Compared with him, Liu Che's father and Liu Che himself all had to dig a hole in the ground and drill down.
"Your Majesty, my minister is still young and has not yet been given a name." As soon as Liu Wu mentioned his son, his face was full of kindness and he was so happy that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear: "Since your Majesty mentioned this matter, why not ask your Majesty to name my minister!
"
"Emperor Shu Lin'er is also my brother and sister." Liu Che threw a tall hat over and looked thoughtful, then said: "Let's take the name of Li!"
"Those who go by the calendar are like the sun, moon and stars. I hope that in the future they will become the stars, sun and moon of our country, the pillars of our country, and the virtuous kings of our people!"
Liu Wu was stunned when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed and said: "Your Majesty bestows your name on me, and I would like to thank you on behalf of my son!"
Like the sun, moon and stars? Haha
Liu Wu was a man of great literary talent and well-read.
Who didn’t know that besides being like the sun, moon and stars, the calendar also has another explanation: Lishan!
It is said that Shun fished in Leize and cultivated in Mount Li.
And Lishan is within the territory of Jinan.
What does the emperor mean?
Liu Wu had already figured it out.
To destroy Liu Piguang, first turn the country into a county, and then in the future, let his youngest son become the king!
This Jinan country is a great place!
Although the area is not very big, there are only five counties.
But the advantage is that the land is fertile and the climate is suitable. It has been a fertile land of China since ancient times.
Otherwise Emperor Shun would not have chosen to lead the people in Lishan to cultivate the land.
In addition, Jinan is also famous for its fountains. Its former name is "Yiyi" which means the city of fountains.
At this moment, Liu Wu really couldn't wait to fly to Suiyang and tell his dear wife and son: I love my concubine! I have decided on the future place of the country for my son!
Then, a sweet kiss from my wife will be printed on the cheek immediately!
In this way, Liu Che deceived Liu Wu with a promise that was not a promise.
Liu Che believed that with such a carrot dangling, Liu Wu would never regret it!
It’s impossible for anyone to convince him to waver! (To be continued.)
