A happy event for the royal family is a happy event for the world. The emperor has an heir, and he wants to let everyone under his rule know. These days in Chang'an City are like celebrating the New Year. Even two people who don't know each other have to say hello when they meet. In Chang'an City, it's like celebrating the New Year.
Under the advice of Queen Mother Wang, the porridge given to beggars and homeless people became a little thicker. The officials sent congratulatory gifts in piles to the palace, and the Yongning Hall where Wei Zifu lived was almost full.
After the Empress Dowager Dou touched the child, she named him Liu Zhi. As for the artistic conception and explanation of the name, Tai Chang had it, and the servants brought knowledge from various places to complete it. The important thing is that this is Liu Che's first son. And
He was still the eldest son, so he would be established as the prince the moment he was born. However, no one mentioned this matter. Even the censors, who were known to be strong-willed and brave enough to say anything, also kept their mouths shut.
As the driver of the attending medical officer, Su Ren drove Chunyu Yi into the palace in a carriage every day to recuperate Mrs. Wei. He worked tirelessly and conscientiously. Even if Chun Yuyi had no intention of entering the palace, he would urge or persuade him to go in and have a look. It was not for other reasons.
Just to have a conversation with Liu Che while standing in the corridor outside Yongning Hall. He kept the emperor happy and didn't even have time to see their brothers.
"Your Majesty has been so happy these days, wouldn't he have forgotten the important things?"
Liu Che's face was full of joy. He would look back at Wei Zifu's room from time to time. If there was anything wrong inside, he would rush over to check. He looked back again and saw that there was nothing unusual. Then he answered Su Ren: "What's the business? Imperial affairs."
The Prime Minister will take care of it. If there is any major matter, I will make a decision without delay."
Seeing that Liu Che was distracted, Su Ren shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Prime Minister? Are you really confident that you can leave everything to the Prime Minister? I heard that the Prime Minister is very busy recently."
"You should be busy. The prime minister is in charge of hundreds of officials, so he should be busy!" Liu Che heard the child's cry, got up and ran to the room.
Su Ren was a little crazy, but he couldn't stop it. After drinking two cups of tea, he waited for Liu Che to come out and said, "Can you still talk properly? I think it would be appropriate to find a belt to tie Liu Che to you."
Liu Che chuckled: "By the way, you said just now that the Prime Minister is very busy, why is he so busy?"
"You should be busy, but the direction is wrong. A few days ago, the Prime Minister reported to your Majesty the governors of several counties for approval, and the Prime Minister's Mansion became even more lively. In addition, the Prime Minister also sent people to his hometown, saying that he was looking for someone who had been missing for many years.
My niece, the Central Doctor Han Yan is in charge of this matter, your Majesty, don’t say you don’t know!”
"niece?"
"Yeah! Niece!"
Liu Che frowned: "That's not right. The prime minister has one brother, one brother, one sister, and one sister. Gaihou and Zhou Yanghou are both in the capital. My sister is my mother and my sister is also my aunt. She is also in the palace. Go to my hometown.
What niece are you looking for?"
Su Ren shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe the Prime Minister misses his relatives?"
"What kind of relatives are you missing right now?" Liu Che's heart moved, and his face immediately turned serious: "You mean the Prime Minister asked Han Yan to look for them?"
Su Ren nodded.
Liu Che thought for a moment and snatched the tea cup from Su Ren's hand: "Tell me, what do you want to say? Just say it!"
Su Ren looked around, and Liu Jiqing quickly drove away the serving palace and maids, and stepped back ten steps away. Su Ren then said: "Speaking of which, Your Majesty should have a sister among the people, right? When the Queen Mother entered
Before the palace..."
Liu Che's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He grabbed Su Ren's collar and gritted his teeth: "How did you know about this?"
"No, no, no, no..." Su Ren quickly begged for mercy, but Liu Che never let go: "Say it, say it quickly!"
Su Ren was helpless: "I also knew it from the Prime Minister. I also knew that Han Yan told the Prime Minister, but I don't know why the Prime Minister wanted to find him! If His Majesty doesn't want to be found, I will do it now, but I have to think carefully about what to do.
How to explain to the Queen Mother? By the way, there is another news. Liu Qian, the eldest son of Huainan King Liu An, has just married a woman and been made the eldest concubine, surnamed Jin! I have finished speaking, can you let go now? "
Liu Che still didn't let go, staring closely at Su Ren. Su Ren still had a playful smile. After a while, Liu Che slowly let go of his hand, closed his eyes and rested for a long time: "Liu An
?”
Su Ren nodded.
Liu Che gritted his teeth and said, "Is the thunder quilt still at your home?"
"exist!"
"Let him go to Tingwei's mansion tomorrow."
"promise!"
After leaving the palace, the cold sweat on Su Ren's back still hadn't dried. What does it mean to accompany an emperor like a tiger? Su Ren finally understood. In this era of supremacy of imperial power, being friends with the emperor is actually a very dangerous thing.
A bad word could cause his head to move. The moment Liu Che grabbed his collar, Su Ren saw murderous intent in Liu Che's eyes.
There is indeed a reason why the emperor is called a loner. People who have been close to the emperor since ancient times have not had a good end. Not to mention those heroes and generals who accompanied Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, to conquer the world. Who has a good ending? No one
. Even people like Xiao He and Zhang Liang had to resort to self-destruction or escape to protect themselves, and Han Xin's death was even more miserable.
Many of these people are brothers to Liu Bang, and even grew up together. But since Liu Bang became emperor, no one has ever dared to speak their true feelings to Liu Bang. Liu Che is also the emperor, and Su Ren has thought over and over what he said, and
He also took huge risks. Not everyone dared to tell the secrets of the Queen Mother, and only Su Ren, who was fearless and bold, was so reckless.
After returning home, he took a shower and changed his clothes. Su Ren took two breaths and ordered Liu Gao to find Han Qing and Leng Jun. Han Qing knew the inside story, and Leng Jun never asked about Su Ren's affairs. He only focused on his family.
safety considerations.
Su Ren scratched his head: "Send someone to send Lei Gui and Liu Jian to Tingwei Mansion tomorrow."
Han Qing was stunned: "Sir, what you mean is..."
"Don't ask too much. Once we deliver the person, our mission will be completed. In addition, we will release the wind to Princess Guantao. It will be said that the wizard of Huainan Kingdom has been rescued."
Leng Jun frowned: "Should we let Su Kai take over?"
Su Ren shook his head: "No, Su Kai is the emperor's man now. When he takes over is the emperor's business. We just need to get these hot potatoes out as soon as possible."
Han Qing nodded: "In that case, is Liu Shuang..."
"Don't worry about this. Let's take a look at the situation of King Huainan first. We can defeat the two princes in one fell swoop. The emperor doesn't have the appetite yet, so it's better to do it one by one. As long as King Huainan suffers, King Hengshan won't dare to move."
Leng Jun said: "You are playing with fire, be careful to burn yourself!"
"Hey, there is no way. We have made too many enemies, and they are all big shots. If we don't eliminate them one by one, we will never have peace. We can only deal with the most difficult ones."
After a few people discussed it, they invited Lei Quan and Liu Jian over, and talked with them in detail for a whole half of the night. After careful consideration of various arguments, they were finally confirmed.
The next day, it was dawn. Under the protection of Leng Jun, Huo Jin and others, two carriages quietly came out from the back door of Su Mansion and drove quickly to Tingwei Mansion. The early morning in Chang'an City was very deserted, and there were not many people on the streets.
Such a large group of people is particularly eye-catching. Just after passing the Pink Alley, two carriages suddenly sprang out from both ends of the street, blocking the group in the alley one after the other.
Liu Hong, only wearing single clothes, stood on horseback at the entrance of the alley. He glanced at the carriage that was forced to stop, and asked Leng Jun with a smile: "I didn't expect Su Ren to even use you. You have rarely left Su's house in the past few years."
The door!”
Liu Hong glared coldly: "So what? If I want to take your life, all I have to do is move my fingers."
"That's right! I've already learned how Master Leng's swordsmanship is, but let me remind you, you can look at the rooftops on both sides and decide what to do?"
Everyone's eyes turned to the roof. A dozen people carrying bows and arrows showed their heads. Hawking was furious and waved the halberd in his hand: "Liu Hong, what do you want to do?"
Liu Hong smiled: "No need to do anything. As long as you put down those two carriages, I guarantee that everyone can leave safely. If you want to take action, I will accompany you until the end!"
Hawking wanted to rush up, but was stopped by Lengjun. He took two steps forward, looked at the arrogant Liu Hong, and said Lengjun: "Do you keep your word?"
Liu Hongdao: "Even if I don't mean what I say, what can you do? In such a formation, do you think you still have a choice?"
Leng Jun took a deep breath: "Okay, let's leave the carriage and let's go!"
Liu Hong laughed: "That's right, why bother yourself for these things? Things belong to others, but your life is yours!"
Leng Jun returned his sword to its sheath, turned his horse's head and left the guard's carriage. The guards who followed him gathered around Leng Jun and slowly retreated. Liu Hong suddenly didn't believe it. These people retreated too neatly and completely.
Like what Su Ren did. According to Liu Hong's understanding of Su Ren, even if he didn't take action, he would still leave some words behind, such as revenge in the future. But today Lengjun turned around and left without any hesitation.
Waiting for Leng Jun and others to exit the alley, Liu Hong waved his hand and his driver rushed over and grabbed the reins of the horse. Liu Hong quickly asked: "Is there anyone in the car?"
Without fear of death, he rushed over and opened the curtain. Just as Liu Hong guessed, the carriage was empty, not to mention no one or even a ghost. Liu Hong laughed loudly: "It is indeed Su Ren, he has always done things like this!"
The guard on the side was shocked by Liu Hong's smile. After a long time, he asked timidly: "Master, what should we do next?"
Liu Hong glanced at the guard and smiled coldly: "What should I do? Could it be that you want to go to Tingwei Mansion to ask for someone?"
"Ah! I've already gone to Tingwei's Mansion, so what the king told me isn't..."
"This is the result that my father wanted." Liu Hong sighed: "But this is the worst result. Let everyone disperse and return to Huainan immediately. They are not allowed to stay for a while. Maybe Jing Zhaoyin's people have already gone here by this time.
The edge is coming."
"No!" The guard did not hesitate and quickly agreed to go ahead and do the work. (To be continued)
