"Prince... We asked you to vaguely propose this idea and let the Queen think of it... How can you say it directly?"
"I was worried that my mother wouldn't understand the meaning, so I told the truth."
"How could she..."
Tang Bing's lips trembled. At this moment, the old man was also a little bit off guard. The four of them discussed for a long time, and finally made up their minds, asking the prince to vaguely suggest that Han Xin would escort the prince.
The queen tried to save the life of Marquis Huaiyin. In the end, the incompetent prince actually told the queen the truth. Is this okay?
The meaning of Liu Ying's words was to protect his position as prince, and it also vaguely meant to target the emperor and his brothers. Empress Lu may have this idea, but you, a prince, do you want to rebel by saying this?
Can you tell me?
The four old men's blood pressure may have been a little high. They took a deep breath and calmed down for a long time. The youngest Zhou Shu recovered quickly and comforted him: "No matter how you say it, this is the prince's first attempt.
It will definitely be much better next time..."
"I'm afraid this time will be the last...Prince, please tell us about the Queen's reaction...What did she say?"
Liu Ying thought about her mother's appearance seriously and said: "She probably was stunned for a long time, and then she just nodded when I said anything... She was still in a daze when I left..."
"It's over, it's over...not only can't we save the Marquis of Huaiyin, but the prince is also about to get involved..."
What the four well-informed old people did not expect was that instead of sending troops to capture the prince who was trying to rebel, the queen ordered him to lift his ban and allowed him to visit the Marquis of Huaiyin in prison. The queen even
Five or six new people were arranged for the prince. The so-called prince's people are equivalent to the prince's future helpers.
The helpers arranged by the Queen are all extraordinary and proficient in their own fields. This is not a punishment... it seems to be a reward?
Four old people who lived from the Qixiong period to the early Han Dynasty exclaimed: We are short-sighted... we never thought it would be like this.
........
At this moment, Empress Lu was busy with the follow-up matters. Of course, the first thing was the big one. Lu Shizhi quickly settled the affairs outside the palace. Before Han Xin came over, he dismissed his retainers and servants. Lu Shizhi
Shi Zhi closed the city gate and captured a few of them, but no more rebels could be found inside or outside the city.
Then came the things in the palace. First was Liu Chang who rushed out of the palace, and then Liu Ruyi who lent Liu Chang a horse...
Liu Ruyi knelt in the Jiaofang Hall, lowering her head.
"Do you want to kill your brother? Do you know how old he is? Just take him riding??"
Lu Houruo Bingshuang scolded angrily.
Ruyi was also very good at dancing on weekdays, but in front of Empress Lu, he did not dare to be presumptuous. He lowered his head and explained feebly: "I saw that my eldest brother was depressed all day long, so I took him to ride a horse...I didn't either
I knew he would do this..."
"Mom...it's true. One person does things and the other takes responsibility. I did steal his horse, and he didn't know what I was going to do..."
"Are you quite proud? Shut up!"
Liu Chang, who was explaining, was scolded and quickly lowered his head.
Empress Lu continued to look at Ruyi and cursed: "From now on, put away your showy temper and don't follow the elder's nonsense anymore! You are so many years older than the elder, and your conduct in life is worse than that of Heng! How can you manage well like this?
Where is Zhao Di? From now on, you must study hard and learn from the teachers the principles of governing the country! Don't act like a child again!"
"The Kingdom of Zhao is going through a war, and the recovery after the war is not a simple matter. Although there are people like Zhou Chang assisting you, if you, the King of Zhao, are incapable, no matter how good you are, you will not be able to display your talents.
, you need to learn more about the war in Zhao State, and ask the teachers more about how to manage a post-war place!"
Ruyi nodded in agreement.
At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the palace gate, and a woman quickly rushed into the Jiaofang Palace.
The person who came was none other than Madam Qi. Madam Qi looked frightened. When she saw Ruyi kneeling on the ground, she rushed to Ruyi's side and protected him. She looked at Empress Lu angrily and asked loudly: "Liu Chang
Injured! That’s because he is naughty! What does it have to do with my child? Your Majesty has just left, and you want to take the opportunity to murder my child?!"
At this moment, both Liu Ruyi and Liu Chang were stunned.
Liu Chang really didn't like this Mrs. Qi. Ever since he was a child, he had gone to play with his brothers. The only one who would be indifferent to him and drive him away was Mrs. Qi. Because of this, Liu Chang was very
For a long time, he was very hostile to Liu Ruyi and couldn't get along with him. The main reason was his mother's attitude towards him.
Ruyi was even more surprised at this moment, his face turned red and he was at a loss.
"I'm just educating him, how dare you say murder?" Queen Lu said indifferently.
"You have always disliked Ruyi, it has always been like this..."
Mrs. Qi faced Empress Lu with the same fear, and she was almost crying at this moment.
Liu Ruyi said helplessly: "You should go back first, my mother is correcting my mistakes..."
"let's go together..."
Liu Ruyi looked serious and said loudly: "The queen is my mother. She came to scold me for my own good. How can you stop her? What qualifications do you have to stop me?"
Mrs. Qi was stunned and looked at her son in disbelief.
Empress Lu laughed lightly, shook her head and said, "Take your child away, I am not qualified to reprimand him."
Mrs. Qi looked at Empress Lu, her eyes full of hatred, but she was helpless.
Liu Chang stood up slowly, stood in front of Empress Lu, and glared at her, "You are just a concubine, how dare you look directly at my mother? Lower your head!!!"
Ruyi also stood up, blocking Mrs. Qi behind her, and also glared at Liu Chang, "You are just a prince, how can you be rude to my mother?!"
Mrs. Qi and Empress Lu looked at each other, and Liu Ruyi and Liu Chang looked at each other.
For a moment, a breeze blew gently, and Empress Lu grabbed Liu Chang's shoulders and said, "Go out, and don't come back again."
Mrs. Qi took Liu Ruyi and left. Liu Chang was still complaining to Empress Lu, "When I can go out, look at how I kick Ruyi. He can't beat me now. When I grow up,
Years old, I will beat him every day!"
That's what he said, but when Liu Chang left the palace, he was playing and joking with Liu Ruyi again, as if nothing had happened between them. The children's grievances probably didn't count.
The grudges, after a fight and fooling around together, are over.
But adults are always responsible for their words, and their grudges will not be limited to fighting.
...
In the distant country of Zhao, the war further intensified.
Chen Xi couldn't bear it any longer. He was frustrated in all directions. He could only hide in the city and defend with difficulty. He comforted himself over and over again in his heart: As long as King Chu can take action, everything will be fine.
Since the cavalry rebellion in September, it has now come to the first month of the eleventh year of the Han Emperor. Chen Xi no longer has the strength to resist. The generals who were originally wandering around were either beheaded by Fan Kuai or used by Xia Houying to fight.
The car was run over.
Dingtao, Liang Palace.
Liang Wang Pengyue knelt on the ground and listened to Liu Bang's envoy reading Liu Bang's edict.
Liu Bang wrote edicts most of the time casually. This edict was written to scold Peng Yue.
The general meaning is that there is a shortage of soldiers on the front line. Your country, Liang, has the second largest number of soldiers among the vassal states, second only to Qi. Even Jing has sent tens of thousands of troops, but you have sent a boy to lead them.
Thousands of people have come to fool me? When I made you the king of princes, I wanted you to help the country when it was in trouble. What do you want to do now?
Stop talking nonsense and quickly bring your troops to support. King Xin of Han invaded with the Huns cavalry again and stationed themselves in Shenhe County. We are fighting on two fronts. Our troops are obviously not enough! Come on!
After listening to the edict, Peng Yue accepted it respectfully.
Peng Yue, Han Xin and Yingbu were also known as the three famous generals of the early Han Dynasty. Many people in later generations considered him to be the father of guerrilla warfare in China. When Liu Bang and Xiang Yu fought, Peng Yue often came and went to send troops to attack Xiang Yu on behalf of the Han king.
Liang Di cut off their supply of food and grass, which was known in history as "Peng Yue scratched Chu".
After Liu Bang brought peace to the world, he became King of Liang.
But the problem is that King Liang is not as young and powerful as several other kings. King Liang is already old.
He went to Chang'an several times to visit Liu Bang and was not afraid that Liu Bang would arrest him.
When the Grand Duke passed away, he did not go because he was sick, but he did not expect that several other princes and kings were also "sick". Peng Yue wanted to cry without tears. He was really sick. Including this crusade against the enemy.
, he did not lead the troops himself because he was seriously ill, so he sent a general he trusted with thousands of people.
This is not to fool Liu Bang, this is because today's Liang State is no longer the same Liang State as before. We all know that Peng Yue's relationship with Liu Bang is that of collaborators. He is not the kind of old brother who has followed Liu Bang from the beginning. He also has people under his command.
His confidants, and these confidants, do not agree with his current status.
They felt that if Peng Yue became king, they could only become generals of the feudal country. If Peng Yue could become emperor, wouldn't they be able to become kings?
Peng Yue spent a lot of effort to suppress the generals in the country who had other ideas. He was a relatively affectionate person and was unwilling to kill him. He could only use gentle methods to let them go home and rest in peace.
In his later years, the general he sent was the only person he trusted.
