When the Taiwei passed away, the whole world mourned.
The emperor personally mourned him and invited the Taiwei to move to the Zhonglie Hall, becoming the second minister to enter the Zhonglie Hall in the Xiping Year. Sun Jian was not able to stay and see the Taiwei off. He had more important things to deal with.
However, when he left this time, the original joy on his face was gone. He was filled with sorrow and regret, and he led his troops to leave Luoyang.
The little fat man sat in the Hall of Houde, with his head lowered and a hand on his forehead, sighing, feeling a little guilty in his heart. If he had let the Taiwei go, wouldn't such a thing have happened? Although the imperial doctor's order did not say it clearly, but
It is possible that the Taiwei used excessive force. At his age, he shot an arrowless arrow that could knock the young and strong general Sun Jian off his horse.
"Alas" the little fat man sighed heavily.
"Yeah", a pair of small hands began to toss his hair. The fat man raised his head. The mastiff's eyes widened, and her small hands were holding his hair and playing with it. The queen smiled gently, hugged the mastiff and let him toss it.
Father, the fat man laughed loudly, snatched him from the queen's hand, held him in his arms, and kissed him hard several times, making the little guy laugh and keep dodging his attacks.
"You bully me, you dare to hide?" The fat man laughed and scolded, holding the little guy tightly, teasing him for a moment, raising his head, looking at the queen, and asked: "Why did you bring him here?
"?" The queen glanced at him, took the mastiff from his arms, and said: "You haven't come to see me for several days, and you haven't come to see the mastiff. The mastiff misses you, so I brought him here.
"
"Haha" the little fat man laughed, and stretched out his hand to hug the queen. The queen pushed him away and said impatiently: "The mastiff is still there!" The little fat man looked at him fiercely.
The little guy said helplessly: "If I had known better, I wouldn't have wanted this guy." The queen handed the little guy to a palace maid and sat next to him.
After chatting for a while, the queen hesitated and hesitated. The fat man narrowed his eyes and said nothing. The queen thought for a moment and then asked: "Your Majesty, King Chenliu is young, can you not send him so urgently?"
Seal the country?" A few days ago, Zongzheng Liu Biao said that the emperor's two younger brothers stayed in the palace for too long, which was against etiquette and law, and they should go to their own country.
And Liu An has not been canonized yet. This is also a problem that needs to be solved by the emperor. Liu Biao has naturally received the instructions of the emperor. Now that Liu Xie and Liu An are not young, it is time to leave Luoyang and go to their own fiefdom.
Especially after the mastiff was born, the emperor felt that the two of them should go out. Brothers, brothers, could never compare to this biological son.
Although the emperor did not give a clear response to Liu Biao, all the officials in the court knew that Liu Xie and Liu An were leaving Luoyang. If the mastiff had not been born yet, the emperor might be able to keep them longer, but
, now, the emperor will definitely not let them stay in the palace anymore. At the same time, in the palace, this incident also caused quite a disturbance.
The most saddened one was of course the Empress Dowager Song. Liu Xie was the son of the Empress Dowager Song, and Liu An was raised by her herself. She could not bear to part with either of them, but she was a virtuous person and did not go to the emperor to cry or stop him.
, the little fat man knew what his mother was thinking, but he still frowned and chose to ignore it, which made him feel a little uneasy.
Hearing the Queen bring up this topic again, the fat man pursed his lips and said slowly: "Since the Queen entered the palace, everything in the palace has been in order. I am very grateful to the Queen. However, King Chenliu and Liu An both
At a very young age, it is time to shoulder the responsibilities of the clan and guard the country for the Han Dynasty. This is the duty of the prince and no one can escape it."
Hearing his words, the queen lamented and said: "Today, my mother is very sad. She has not eaten for several days, and little Raoyang is so reluctant to leave his two brothers."
"What about Erlang and Sanlang? Are they looking for you?" the fat man asked, squinting his eyes.
"They never came to me"
"Alas." The fat man stood up, looked at the queen, and said, "I'm going to see my mother right now."
When we arrived at Yongci Palace, many palace maids gathered at the door. Seeing the emperor coming, they all came to pay their respects. The emperor frowned and asked, "Why are you gathering here?" The palace maids replied with some fear: "Queen Mother.
"I refuse to eat." The fat man walked in. The Queen Mother was sitting by the bed, wondering what she was thinking. When she saw the emperor walking in, she was speechless.
The little fat man smiled and sat next to her.
"Why don't you eat, grandma?"
"Eating without intention"
The little fat man thought for a moment and said slowly: "Mom, please don't do this. I won't treat my brothers badly. Erlang and Sanlang have grown up. They can't stay in the palace all the time. They are the heirs of Emperor Xiaokang, so they should
Fulfill the responsibilities of the clan," the little fat man urged. The queen mother raised her head and looked at him, her eyes full of tears.
"Can I let them stay with me for a little longer, maybe a few months?"
Seeing his mother in tears, Fatty felt a sharp pain in his heart. He stretched out his hand and wiped the tears on his mother's face. He was troubled in his heart. He really wanted to agree to his mother's wishes, but before he became the son of a man, he was still the emperor of a man.
, he is still the biological father of the mastiff. He cannot let anyone threaten the position of the mastiff. He gritted his teeth and remained silent for a long time.
Seeing the little fat man's silence, Queen Mother Song understood what he was thinking, and still asked with some reluctance: "How about January? Is it okay for January?"
"I'm sorry, Mom"
The little fat man didn't know how he ran out of Yongci Palace. He didn't dare to look at his mother's praying and sad eyes. He was afraid that if he couldn't help it, he would agree to his mother's request. He clenched his fists tightly.
Sitting in the Hall of Houde, looking at the food on the desk, he had no intention of eating. He never thought that one day, he would make his mother so disappointed and in such pain.
I wonder if my mother would know that when she was so sad, he was actually in more pain than she was. It wasn't that he couldn't bear to leave his two brothers, but he didn't want to see his mother in such pain, especially if it was caused by himself.
While he was staring blankly, a palace maid came in cautiously carrying food. The little fat man turned around and looked over. The palace maid whispered: "The Queen Mother is willing to have a meal. These are all sent here by the Queen Mother."
A smile appeared on the little fat man's face.
In the evening, the little fat man called Liu Xie over. Today, Liu Xie is no longer the short and cowardly boy of the past. His height is also close to that of his elder brother. He looks very much like the Queen Mother of Song Dynasty, and is more attractive than the little fat man.
The fat man kindly asked him to sit next to him and invited him to eat together. After studying for several years, Liu Xie was no longer so careless when facing his brother.
On the contrary, it is a bit restrictive.
"Erlang, you and I are brothers, you don't have to be so restrained."
"yes"
After eating, the emperor took him out of the Houde Hall. The two walked slowly under the night, talking to each other from time to time. The little fat man sighed and said, "I'm asking you to leave the palace like this, but you know what's going on in your heart." Hate me?"
"I dare not hold any grudges."
"Don't dare, that is, I want to hate, but I don't dare to hate," the little fat man said. Liu Xie shook his head quickly and said, "That's not the case." The fat man waved his hands and said, "Okay, don't say too much, others will I don’t know, don’t I know you? I watched you grow up. When you were a child, you always liked to beat me. When I hit back, you would cry, and my father would come and beat me.”
"I am young and ignorant"
"Hey, you have never been beaten by my father. You don't know how hard he beat me. The most excessive one was that time in my aunt's Yongning Palace. Do you still remember that when you came to beat me, your hands hurt? As a result, I cried loudly, and my father beat me up again. At that time, I was so unjust, I always wanted to beat you up when no one was around!"
"Hahaha" Liu Xie couldn't help laughing and touched his head a little embarrassedly.
"Erlang," the little fat man turned around, looked at him, and said, "Don't blame me. I am your elder brother and a compatriot with you. You also know that I have loved you since childhood. Compared with Liu An, , I also love you even more. When my father drove you away, I cried for a long time. I was reluctant to let you leave Luoyang. But as the second son of Emperor Xiaokang and my younger brother, you have to Fulfill your duties"
"Yanzhou is a big state, and Chenliu is a good place. However, many of my orders are not implemented well in these wealthy places. If you want to help me, you can go and see for me what they are." People are secretly against me, but you can write to me at any time. I am in this palace. Apart from you, Saburo, and my mother, who else can trust me?"
"do you understand?"
The little fat man asked earnestly.
Liu Xie looked at him, nodded heavily, and said, "Brother, I understand."
The little fat man grinned, punched Liu Xie on the shoulder, and shouted: "This is revenge for the beating I got from you when I was young!" Liu Xie bared his teeth in pain and complained: "Then I will report to my mother when I go back later, as the eldest brother, you actually beat me!"
"Hahaha"
King Chen Liu still left Luoyang, but Liu An had not left because he had not thought about the canonization of Liu An. While he was thinking about the canonization of Liu An, the minister ordered Xing Ziang to ask for an audience with the emperor. This surprised the little fat man. He didn't come to see him anymore. He was greeted by Xing Zi'ang, who took Xing Ziang's hand and walked to the main hall, where he sat facing each other. The emperor smiled very happily.
"I have missed you for a long time. I didn't want you to come see me today. I am very happy, very happy!"
Looking at the emperor's appearance, his face gradually overlapped with that of another person. If the emperor said another sentence, "You and I are like the story of Gao Zu and Liu Hou", Xing Ziang would probably jump up in fright. However, the emperor still did not say such words. , Xing Ziang didn't say much. He took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it in front of the emperor.
"Before Emperor Xiaokang died of illness, he asked his ministers that if the emperor wants to enthrone his second son Liu An one day, he should hand this letter to the emperor." Xing Ziang said, the emperor was stunned, Xing Ziang, he is trustworthy, Xing Ziang's moral character He was a role model among officials, and this was probably the purpose of Emperor Xiaokang entrusting him with the letter for safekeeping.
The emperor took the letter and Xing Ziang was about to leave. The emperor smiled and held him back and said, "You don't have to retreat, you are my confidant!" He said and started reading, although he knew that the emperor might not really mean it.
, but Xing Ziang still felt a little warm in his heart, so he sat opposite the emperor, who looked at him seriously.
"My son personally announced that I will marry the king of the Japanese Gonu Kingdom and order Liu An to marry his daughter. I do this because I want to canonize Liu An as the king of Japan. I plan to let him marry when he comes of age.
The Japanese girl became the Japanese king. However, I am gradually becoming unwell and I don’t know if I can live to that day. I specifically asked that if I die early, my son Liu Bian can Liu An canonize the Japanese island and make the Japanese island belong to my great man.
"
"Hahaha, I don't know if my son may have read this letter. If he did, I don't know what happened to the great man at that time. Were there any natural disasters or man-made disasters? Was the Queen Mother still in good health? My little Rao Yang, did he ever remember me?
?Have you ever been married? If she is married, don’t forget to tell me.”
Xing Ziang looked at the emperor in front of him. At that moment, the emperor's expression changed in an extremely exaggerated way.
Surprise, hesitation, anxiety, relief, excitement and sadness?
"Reporting to my father, there are no natural disasters or disasters for this man. My eldest mother has gone to accompany you. My aunt is healthy and little Raoyang, and I will definitely not let her be humiliated in the slightest."
The emperor whispered, raised his head, looked at Xing Ziang, and said: "Mr.
Xing Ziang was stunned. He didn't expect that the letter contained such content. He quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to make arrangements." The emperor frowned and asked, "By the way, Cao Cao, the farmer, is marrying
Japanese girl?"
"That's right, I gave birth to a son and called him Cao Ang."
"Yes, good." The emperor didn't know what he was thinking about. He nodded, looked at Xing Zi'ang again, and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for sending me this letter. In the letter, my father once said that Xing Jun is the emperor's confidant and can be trusted."
, I want me to use you seriously, which shows that in the heart of the emperor, your status is high."
"Emperor Xiaokang really said that?" Xing Ziang asked excitedly. The little fat man was stunned. He made this up casually. How could Xing Ziang react so violently? He nodded, picked up the letter and said: "
If you don’t believe it, can you see it for yourself?”
Xing Ziang shook his head quickly and said: "The loyal ministers of the Tian family dare not watch, Your Majesty." There was some pleading in his eyes, and he asked: "Your Majesty may read those few sentences, and I will listen to them."
The little fat man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, picked up the letter, and pretended to read it, "I ordered Ziang to hand the letter into your hands. Ziang is returning my confidant. He has been with me since he was a child. He has high moral character.
If you have the talents of Situ, you can reuse them in the future." The little fat man racked his brains to read. Suddenly, he heard a burst of sobbing.
When he put down the letter blankly, he looked at Xing Ziang.
