100, Huo Quai's thoughts
- "No one defends the crown prince more than Marquis Jinghuan." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Huo Guang thought about what he said before, and only felt that his mind was a complete mess,
- His brother...... Why is there such a sloppy ......
Emperor Xiaowu is a dictatorial character, and there is such a thing as dividing the prince...... How could you allow your subordinates to make such a self-righteous claim?
——Those courtiers don't know that Huo Guang is a courtier who is in the forbidden middle school, how can they not know the thoughts of the white son?
- The Son of Heaven does not mean to divide the prince at all!
In the fifth year of Yuanzhen, the Three Kingdoms were replaced, not because the Son of Heaven felt that the prince should be divided, but because, in the midsummer of the fifth year of Yuanzhen, the Son of Heaven was sick.
- Very sick!
——It's so heavy that the Son of Heaven **** has to put the two big Simas by his side every night, and he will never let the two leave at the same time.
——It was so heavy that when the commander of the court thought that the Son of Heaven would definitely get rid of the strong ministers for the young master, he dared to wave his sword at the general in public.
——When his condition just improved, in order to calm people's hearts, the Son of Heaven used the Great Driver to Xingganquan and presided over the hunting.
……
Think about the longevity of Emperor Xiaowen and Emperor Xiaojing, and everyone is ...... to the Son of Heaven The big deal...... It's all mentally prepared......
- Emperor Xiaowen died at the age of forty-seven. Emperor Xiaojing died at the age of forty-eight. In the fifth year of Yuanzhen, the Son of Heaven was nearly forty years old at that time......
Almost everyone is thinking about it, the crown prince is the emperor...... What will it be like......
…… Especially the two great Sima ...... What will happen?
Although both of them are close relatives of the crown prince, they are also very powerful ministers.
Back then, Emperor Xiaojing said to Zhou Yafu: "This cowardly person is not a young minister!" ”
…… Where is the injustice that Zhou Yafu showed because he only had no chopsticks on the table......
…… Young lord and strong minister......
Huo Guang believed that the courtiers were indeed determined, but Lang Zhongling was "killed by a deer", but everyone was unsure of what the Son of Heaven was planning......
In any case, Li Kang's death made everyone realize - the two great Simas...... Yes, it cannot be offended!
Furthermore, even if the Son of Heaven's illness began to improve, the courtiers had to consider the possibility of a change of throne.
- After all, the disease of the Son of Heaven ...... Repeatedly...... tossed for two years, and it was not until the first year of Yuan Ding that he was cured...... Even if it is cured...... Who would dare to say that the Son of Heaven will live a long life?
- Even the Son of Heaven himself is not sure...... Bar......
…… Otherwise...... Why was the kingdom of the princes suddenly restored?
——Huo Qubing has been in and out of the palace since he was a child, and he has won the favor of the Son of Heaven, how can he not understand the thoughts of the Son of Heaven?
——To divide the prince...... Emperor Xiaowu did not exclude, but ......
When he was seriously ill, Emperor Xiaowu did have the intention of dividing the prince and arranging the aftermath, but after the autumn, the condition of the Son of Heaven began to improve...... Regardless of whether or not the Shangjun Wizard really has supernatural powers, in the end, the Son of Heaven's illness has indeed begun to improve.
- At least ...... Looks...... This time...... It's going to be fine.
It is for this reason that the matter of dividing the prince has dragged on.
- After all, except for Liu Ju, the emperor's other princes...... It's really too young.
- Liu Jucai is only twelve years old!
——The so-called Shengyi ...... Able to wear adult clothes...... Really...... Pretty far-fetched.
The emperor really didn't care about other princes, and thought about dividing the feuds, but because the crown prince was still young, he was afraid that if there was an accident, there would be other princes in Beijing, which would cause the courtiers to be restless - the crown prince was young and would inevitably rely on his relatives.
…… With the example of the Lu family in the past, if the Liu clan took advantage of this to make a living......
The prince and the prince are different after all.
- The status of the prince is not too restricted, and the princes and kings ...... Since the second year of Emperor Xiaojing, he has lost the right to govern the people, and even the officials of the kingdom are placed by the Son of Heaven.
But...... All this is based on the most basic premise - the emperor is thinking about his own afterlife.
Now that his condition has improved, the emperor is naturally not happy with the feudal princes and kings - even if it is just thinking about taxes!
——After the Mobei War, the soldiers and horses of the imperial court suffered huge losses, and it was when money was urgently needed, how could the emperor be willing to give up a few more princes and kings to share his income?
- even if it was his own son!
The feudal princes are divided into people and land. The people are divided, and the princes are to eat the taxes paid by the people, and the land is divided, and the princes are to eat the rent of the country they are fiefdom.
If you have one more prince, the Son of Heaven will have one less tax income.
What's more, as soon as his condition improved, the Son of Heaven was once again ready to send a large army to the battle.
- At this time, how could the Son of Heaven want to divide the prince into princes and kings?
Although the reasons given by the prime minister and the imperial historian are not unreasonable, they are compared to the cost of the war...... Those false names...... The Son of Heaven really doesn't value it!
- It's just that, who would have thought that the ministers would be so persistent?
- Why do you insist on it?
Every time Huo Guang remembered the matter of inviting the crown prince, he felt terrified - looking at those few notes, he lifted Huo Quai's notes out again and again, and repeated them over and over again......
- What is the Imperial Mind Technique?
- Such a response......
In the forbidden, Huo Guang did not dare to communicate with his brother, so he could only carry the Son of Heaven behind his back and quietly communicate with the general.
…… Outcome......
The general listened carefully to his vague worries, and in the end, he just smiled and shook his head: "It's okay." Light doesn't need to be so worried. ”
He believed that Wei Qing would not sit idly by and watch Huo Qu's illness fall into a predicament, and his heart was at ease.
Facts have also proved that except for such a "champion Hou", the Son of Heaven did not have any action against Huo Quai.
Of course, perhaps, it has something to do with Huo Quai's absence in Beijing.
——The plan to go to the Xiongnu was set in Ganquan Palace, and then, Huo Qubing went straight to Saishang, packed up his horses, and prepared to attack.
That note was sent by Huo Qu's illness after he arrived in Saishang, and his long history returned to Beijing.
At that time, Huo Guang never understood - what was his brother thinking?
- Why do you want to do this?
- Even if it is because of the incident of Wei Qing who was injured by Li Kang, it is enough to worry that the world will think that their uncle and nephew will turn against each other and shoot Li Kang in public! - Why provoke the bottom line of the Son of Heaven?
……
In any case, the Son of Heaven agreed to canonize the prince as a vassal king.
On April 19, Bingshen Day, the Minister of Ministers played Weiyang Palace: "The Imperial Servant He Xing Yushi Dafu said that the Taichang Minister was full of words on April 28, and the princes and kings could be established." The ministers are ignorant and die to play the map, and please establish the name of the country. Etiquette don't play. Ministers are pleased. The Son of Heaven said: "Establish the emperor Hong as the king of Qi, Dan as the king of Yan, and Xu as the king of Guangling." ”
The next day, Ding You Day, there was a canonization ceremony.
On April 26th, the day of the Emperor's reign, the imperial historian Zhang Tang officially issued the edict of the feudal prince as the prince and the king to the prime minister. It's all like the law.
On April 28, the second day, the Son of Heaven ordered the imperial historian Zhang Tangmiao to set up three princes as princes and kings, and gave advice.
The policies received by the three princes are all controlled by the Son of Heaven - admonishing the king of Qi to be cautious; The king of Yan is commanded to have no grievances and no virtues; Admonish the king of Guangling to be cautious, and there is no authority and blessing.
In Huo Guang's view, those three policy documents are the most sincere father-son love that Emperor Xiaowu can give to the three princes.
A few months after the temple was erected, the three princes and kings were enthroned one after another.
For more than ten years after that, until Mrs. Li gave birth to the prince, the crown prince Liu Ju was the only prince by the side of the Son of Heaven.
It was also more than ten years after that Huo Guang really understood why his brother was still thinking about letting the emperor divide the prince when he was preparing for war.
- But it's for Liu Ju...... For a rainy day!
Emperor Xiaowu has always been unkind to the harem, although he loves his eldest son very much, but for the eldest son's biological mother, in addition to making him the queen, he is no longer favored.
- The queen is no longer young after all.
In the harem, the favored one is Mrs. Wang, the biological mother of the prince Hong.
——In the sixth year of Yuanshuo, Wei Qing returned to his teacher and received a thousand gold, and then someone said to Wei Qing: "The general has not done much, he has eaten thousands of households, and his three sons are all marquises, and he is the queen in vain." Now Mrs. Wang is fortunate that the clan is not rich, and I hope that the general will give Mrs. Wang a long life. ”
Although Mrs. Wang's favor did not benefit her clan, at that time, in the palace, there was indeed no one more favored than Mrs. Wang.
Even, after the death of Mrs. Wang, the young man of Qi made a ghost in the night, such as the appearance of Mrs. Wang, the Son of Heaven saw it from the curtain, and then worshiped the young man as General Wencheng.
Even the prince Hong born by Mrs. Wang is indeed favored by the Son of Heaven.
- Liu Hong is the prince who is second only to Liu Ju in age, and his mother is favored, and he himself is also favored by the Son of Heaven......
- What a similar situation......
More than ten years later, when Zhao Jieyu and her son were favored by the Son of Heaven, it caused public opinion to be uneasy...... Huo Guang finally understood why his brother would ask for the title of prince.
- His brother...... He has never been a dull or stupid person!
It's not that his brother doesn't know that he is induced by his superiors to the courtiers!
It's not that his brother doesn't understand the situation that his own alienation may cause!
It's not that his brother doesn't know the Son of Heaven's tricks and methods...... Or even possible ideas!
Merely...... For his brother...... No matter how much risk you have...... In order to maintain Liu Ju's position...... There are some things he has to do!
- It's not that he doesn't trust others!
- Emperor Xiaowu, General...... Similarly, no one will be allowed to threaten Liu Ju......
- It's just, Emperor Xiaowu...... Sometimes...... Too much confidence in your own grasp of the situation...... Just like on the eve of the four-year war of Yuan Hunt, in order to prevent Wei Qing from facing Shan Yu's main force head-on, he can be like child's play, and temporarily change the direction of the two of them when the plan has been set, regardless of how much preparation the two have made before!
- and in matters that have nothing to do with the big picture...... Great generals really rarely stick to their own opinions!
His brother trusted his instincts and was reluctant to tolerate any threat - just like his tactics of light warfare, leaving nothing to chance for his own safety.
Maybe...... What's more...... Then...... His brother fell ill......
- In the case of deliberate concealment, no one knew that in the midsummer April of the sixth year of Motoka, his brother was already very sick.
