When Liu Chang told Liu Le what Empress Lu said, Liu Le looked very uneasy, and she said bitterly: "I'll ask you to help me persuade my mother... Why did you just get into a fight with her? My mother's words are no longer treating me as a daughter! ”

Liu Chang rolled his eyes, "Why are you all like this?" ”

"If Grandma doesn't speak, doesn't get angry, that's the worst thing, she scolds you now, that's waiting for you to come to the door to apologize! I don't even understand this, I really don't know why you are all so stupid.. Does it mean that it's not that you're stupid, but that the widows are too smart? ”

"Clever? A problem that can be solved by saying a few good words, you have to quarrel with the queen mother, is this still called smart? ”

Liu Chang waved his hand and said disdainfully: "The idea of the widow is not something that you people can understand!" Go and apologize to your mother, say a few more good words, if she scolds you, you will cover your face and cry, your mother is most afraid of you crying, and when she sees you crying, she will definitely not say anything... Remember, don't quarrel, don't talk back."

"I'm not you!"

After sending Liu Le away, Liu Chang looked at Zhang Yan, "Let's go, what are you doing in a daze, the sages are waiting for us!" ”

Zhang Yan's face was a little hesitant, he touched his injured buttocks, "Grandma didn't allow me to go out, saying that if I went out to play again, she would break my legs." ”

"Hey, what are you afraid of, there is an uncle covering you, let's go, I'll tell your aunt if something happens!"

"Uncle... I..."

"Go, go, how can a husband not be beaten? You have to listen to the elders, you know? Go with my uncle! ”

Liu Chang pulled Zhang Yan and walked out, facing the pressure from the elders, Zhang Yan, a good boy, could not resist, the snow had stopped at the moment, but after the heavy snow, Chang'an became even colder, even Ruyi was frozen in the kennel and shivered, not daring to come out.

When Liu Chang walked into his mansion, the mansion was also lively.

Liu Chang's mansion has become the main den of the sages, Liu Chang doesn't lock the door at all, everyone can enter his house, anyway, the thieves and others in Chang'an are here, and they are not afraid that others will steal, a few sages in Chang'an, come here to play if they have nothing to do, no one cares about them here, feel free!

In addition to Qunxian, those Chu Mo also lived here, after all, they were all homeless in Chang'an, and if King Tang didn't take them in, he could only freeze to death outside.

Liu Chang walked into the mansion and happened to see a few Chu Mo hiding under the eaves, talking loudly.

"Hmph, what are you talking about here? Don't go and continue to make carriages for the widow! Is it true that the widow has taken you in so that you can eat and drink for nothing? ”

Liu Chang scolded loudly, and those Chu Mo hurriedly lowered their heads, turned around and left.

That's right, they can't go to Shangfang now, the kind-hearted Tang King is afraid that they will waste the skills in their hands, in order to keep them in hand, so they let them build all kinds of cars for themselves in the mansion, in addition to the wooden bicycles originally envisaged, Liu Chang also asked them to make four-wheeled carriages, wheelbarrows and other tools, these seemingly simple things, at this moment did not appear.

Ji Bu's words touched Liu Chang a lot, now in this world, there must be no way to build Chi Road, open canals, and gather the people of the world to do these things, what will happen to Liu Chang and these people, so they can only start from the means of transportation.

Luan Bu and Zhang Budo did not have a family, so they lived here directly, and listened to the orders of King Tang at any time, well, definitely not to supervise him.

"King!"

The two hurriedly came to greet them, and Liu Chang smiled and returned the salute with them, and then asked, "How is the plough planter set up by the farmer?" ”

"I made two, but I couldn't test it... Looks like it was a success. ”

"Well, find a chance to try it."

Walking into the mansion, Liu Chang sat on the top seat, and said: "Luan Bu, you go to Xiao Xiang's mansion, I heard that Xiao Xiang is seriously ill, and the widow specially prepared some gifts, you give them to him, let him take good care of himself, Tang Guo can't live without him." ”

"Yui!"

After Luan Bu left, Liu Chang looked at Zhang Budo and said: "My good brother is coming, he said that he came to give the widow a horse this time, you go and ask, the saddle that the widow wants, has it been made, if it is made, it will be brought to the widow, if it is not made, it will be urged!" ”

"Yui!"

After the two housekeepers left, Liu Chang looked at Zhang Yan on the side, "Yan, you go and invite the farmer to me, I want to ask about the farm tools, after calling, you will play in the yard, don't leave too far, wait a minute, I'll take you to play." ”

Zhang Yan also learned to give up the appearance of people, and said a wei in a good way.

The two farmers who came at the beginning, the one Zhao Li had already left Chang'an with Liu Chang's letter, and the other one stayed here, cooperating with Qin Molai to develop new farm tools, and the farmer who stayed here was Zhao Li's disciple, who looked about the same age as Luan Bu, he walked into the mansion and met Liu Chang, who let him sit beside him.

"The king.... That plow..."

"Everyone knows about it, and they made two, right?"

"Yes."

"You have done a good job, and you should be rewarded!"

"Thank you king, the minister doesn't dare to be greedy, this is all the credit of my master..."

"Hey, it's okay, you're also from Zhao?"

"Ministers."

"Oh, I can't even hear the slightest accent, the few Qi people I knew before all have a very strong Qi accent... By the way, your master said that he had a relationship with me that day, what is going on? ”

Liu Chang was talking with a pleasant face, and suddenly asked.

The farmer's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "The master made a mistake..."

"Hehe...", Liu Chang chuckled, but his face became very cold, staring at his face, "Do you know why the people in Chang'an are afraid of widows?" ”

"Because of the Great King Shenwu...."

"No, you just came to Chang'an, maybe you don't know that there was once a famous man from the Zongheng family, named Kui Che, who came to be my doorman... It's just that he won't tell me the truth and wants to deceive the widow... The widow made the man prepare a tripod, cook the man alive, and divide his meat! ”

The peasants trembled, their faces turned pale, and their eyes were terrified.

"What? Will you also deceive the widow? Liu Chang asked ferociously.

The peasant sat down on the ground in fright, and cried out, "Don't dare, don't dare to deceive the king... The master is indeed a relative of the Great King's mother's family..."

"You fart! My mother is from Dangjun, how can there be a close relative of Zhao Di?! I don't think you want to live anymore, so the widow will cook you! ”

The peasant shouted in horror: "The king, what the minister said is true, on the way here, the master once said to me that the king's biological mother is Zhending Zhaoren, who was originally Zhang Ao's singer, and then gave it to the emperor, so he has a son, and then Zhang Ao conspired to go to prison, and Mrs. Zhao gave birth to the king in prison, but the queen mother... The Queen Mother refused to save her and committed suicide in grief and anger... The first emperor ordered the queen mother to raise the king..."

"Fart!"

"You traitor!"

Liu Chang roared, pounced on him, pressed the farmer under him, and raised his fist high, the farmer closed his eyes tightly, and waited for a long time, but he didn't see the fist fall on his face.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Liu Chang's face.

What kind of expression was that, sadness, anger, pain, I can't describe that look in words, Liu Chang trembled, his eyes were burning with anger, but he didn't vent on this farmer.

Suddenly, the peasants actually felt some sympathy for the murderous Tang King in front of him, "The king..."

Liu Chang loosened the placket of the farmer's clothes, stood up, and looked into the distance in a daze.

"Let's go... Go to the Don Kingdom... Call your master and find a place to hide. ”

"The King?"

"Get out!"

........

"My lord, I have already sent the gift..."

When Luan Bu smiled and walked into the inner room, he froze, Liu Chang sat alone on the top seat, hanging his head, the whole person seemed to be pulled out of his bones at once, Luan Bu saw the vicissitudes of life in a child's body for the first time, he didn't know what was happening, he was stunned for a moment, cautiously walked to Liu Chang's side, knelt in front of him on one knee, stretched out his hand, and wiped away the tears on his face.

"King, what's wrong?"

Luan Bu asked cautiously, his voice very gentle.

Liu Chang didn't answer, just shook his head.

"Tell me anything, my lord... I am the king's relegator, and if you have any orders, I will help you complete them..."

"Luanbu."

"Huh?"

"Have you ever deceived the widow?"

"Nope."

Liu Chang raised his head and suddenly asked coldly, "Then do you know where the mansion of the trial is located?" ”

Luan Bu was shocked, got up suddenly, and couldn't answer for a while, Liu Chang also stood up and roared angrily: "You really know!" You know it too! But you have also deceived the widow! You all know! You know! The only widow, the only widow knows nothing!! Yes!! ”

Liu Chang kicked the case in front of him away, he raised his head, and tears slipped down again.

"All of you... All lie to me. ”

Luan Bu walked in front of Liu Chang, stretched out his hand, and wiped away Liu Chang's tears again, but Liu Chang just stared at him coldly and didn't speak.

Luan Bu seriously helped Liu Chang clean his face, took a few steps back, held the scabbard on his waist, and asked seriously:

"When are we going to judge his mansion, my lord?"

.......

Liu Chang sat on the top seat, his face full of murder.

Luan Bu and Zhang Budo sat on both sides, no one spoke, just silent.

"Let's go."

Liu Chang stood up, "Let's go to the mansion of the Eater." ”

Luan Bu and Zhang Budo immediately got up, without hesitation, followed behind Liu Chang, the three of them walked out of the mansion, stepping on the thick snow, with solemn expressions, and those Chu Mo around them did not dare to be lazy, and hurriedly went to be busy again, but Liu Chang didn't look at them, and walked out of the mansion directly with the two of them.

got into the car, Luan Bu drove, and Liu Chang and Zhang Budo sat in the car.

"Luan Bu, you and Zhang Budo block his doorman, that old thief, I will kill him with my own hands."

"Later, Luan Bu knocked on the door, saying that he had something important to see, and while he was defenseless, he killed his doorman first...."

Liu Chang said, and the two people listened carefully.

Zhang Budo hesitated for a moment and said, "The king, the judge is deeply favored by the Queen Mother... Always ask him for advice, if the king is bold and moves. ”

"Are you scared? I won't let you follow me. ”

"How could I be afraid, my lord?!"

Zhang Budo frowned and said, "I just don't want the king... Alas, since the king wants to kill, then kill it, if you ask for guilt, I will not hide from it! ”

Liu Chang was silent, and after a while, he asked, "Mother... Is it really my mother-killing enemy? ”

"Absolutely not."

This time, the person who spoke was Luan Bu, and Luan Bu asked seriously: "King, if you murder someone, will you treat her child as your own?" ”

Liu Chang didn't speak, just muttered, "Mrs. Qi once said..."

"Mrs. Qi has an enmity with the Queen Mother, what kind of virtue she is, the king knows."

"The queen mother knows what the king does."

Liu Chang closed his eyes in pain and did not speak again.

Liu Chang never suspected that his mother was not his biological mother, even if Mrs. Qi said such a thing, he never believed it, since he could remember, all he saw was his mother, who fed himself, made clothes for himself, and coaxed himself to sleep, every time his father wanted to beat him, he always hid behind his mother.

When he was a child, he had nightmares, and for the whole night, his mother caressed his back and never slept.

Over the years, whatever he wanted, his mother gave herself... When she encounters meat, she is reluctant to eat it herself, so she has to give it to herself.

The people closest to him in the world became strangers in an instant, and even became enemies... Liu Chang couldn't accept it.

The furious Liu Chang is like a beast in a cage, and the cage that wraps the beast is called maternal love.

As the carriage approached his mansion, Luan Bu suddenly stopped.

Liu Chang opened his eyes, and at some point, a group of armor soldiers appeared around him.

Ahead, Jibu was in the middle of the road, and behind him was the farmer, who stood beside him with his head bowed, without saying a word.

Liu Chang understood.

He slowly stood up, "Jibu... Are you going to stand in my way? ”

"The King... The Queen Mother has an order to let the king go home. ”

"Home?"

Liu Chang smiled bitterly.

"The King... Go home, the Queen Mother is waiting for you to go back to dinner. ”

Ji Bu said seriously.

Liu Chang just looked at Ji Bu for a long time before replying, "Okay." ”

Ji Bu took Liu Chang away with someone, but Luan Bu and Zhang Budo stayed here.

Zhang Budo said helplessly: "Alas, the king's fate is bumpy... However, this can't be blamed on the judge and the queen mother, they didn't murder, they just failed to save each other... Luan Bu, why didn't you persuade just now... Luan Bu? Where are you going? ”

Zhang Budo hurriedly caught up with Luan Bu, who put his hand on the scabbard and said seriously: "Yes, the trial of the food just failed to rescue, there is no sin." ”

"And where are you going?!"

"I'm going to kill it."

"Are you crazy?!"

Zhang Budo hurriedly blocked in front of Luan Bu, his eyes widened, "What do you want to do?" Judging him is a close minister of the Queen Mother! If you want to kill him, do you want the king to break with the queen mother completely?! ”

Luan Bu looked at him calmly, "I know that the trial is not guilty, and I also know that the trial is the queen mother's favorite minister... If the king kills him, the queen mother and the king will definitely break up, so I am ready to kill him myself, and when I kill him, I will kill myself with this sword... First, it will repay the life of the judge, and second, it will not implicate the king. ”

"The queen mother will only hate me, and she will not resent the king because of this, as for the king, she will probably be relieved to learn that she will die after eating him...."

"You fart!"

Zhang Budo's eyes were red, and he scolded: "What kind of person is the king? Don't you know? He's such a loving person, what will happen to him if you kill yourself?! ”

"I know... But you don't know, the king is a very smart and strong man, my death will make him sober, and he will let go of the idea of revenge..."

"You! I will not allow you to do that! ”

Zhang Budo suddenly pulled out his long sword and aimed it at Luan Bu in front of him, "If you want to die, you will die under my sword!" ”

"You're no match for me."

"Then you're going to kill me!!"

Zhang Budo roared: "You think you are helping the king? You're plotting to murder the king! You're going to kill the king once and for all! ”

"I am a minister of the Tang King... Only from the order of the Tang King, go to the soup and go to the fire...."

Luan Bu slowly drew his long sword, and the two confronted each other.

........

In the Jiaofang Palace, Empress Lu sat on the top seat, her face was very calm, but her slightly trembling shoulders proved that her heart was not as calm as she showed, just now, Ji Bu sent someone to tell him, saying that a farmer came to him, saying that the King of Tang was going to kill and eat him, and let him go to dissuade him.

Hearing this, Lu Hou was stunned, she was afraid.

Empress Lu hadn't been scared for a long time, but this time, she was really scared.

A long, long time ago, the past suddenly surfaced, and Empress Lu was surprised to find that Liu Chang was not his biological son, it seemed that even he had forgotten this, and even he was hiding himself and not remembering it.

After marrying Liu Bang, Empress Lu did not enjoy wealth as her father said, but ushered in a life of suffering, she watched her lover abandon her, and watched her lover kick her child off in the carriage.

After ascending the throne, Liu Bang mixed with Mrs. Qi every day, and Empress Lu was completely left out in the cold.

His own son was afraid of her, he didn't dare to treat her like a mother, he didn't dare to say what was in his heart, and he didn't dare to snuggle up to her.

Her own daughter is also afraid of her, since she got married, without her edict, she will never take the initiative to visit her in Chang'an, every time she meets, she just smiles, and her smile reveals estrangement.

Chang is her only son, a child raised by her personally, he will be spoiled to himself, he will quarrel with himself, and he will make Empress Lu like a real mother.

But now, this only sustenance seems to be far away from him.

Empress Lu is very powerful, much more powerful than Liu Chang, in the face of such a thing, her face is still so calm, she sits alone in the Jiaofang Palace, waiting for Liu Chang to arrive.

What kind of eyes would he look at himself?

Would he still be yelling at the door that he was hungry?

Will he question the death of his biological mother?

Lu Hou thought in her mind, and kept silently thinking in her heart, no matter what happened, she would not retreat, she would not be afraid, she had experienced so much, what was this? But one more person left.

There was a sound of footsteps outside the hall, Empress Lu raised her head suddenly, at that moment, she was a little restless, surrounded by the armor soldiers, Liu Chang walked in, he lowered his head, his expression was in a trance, and he walked into the Jiaofang Palace.

Empress Lu looked at his sad face, looked at the tears on his face, and wanted to get up several times, but he didn't dare to get any closer.

In the silence, it was as if an invisible barrier had appeared between the two.

Liu Chang raised his head with tears in his eyes.

"Mother~~~"

He raised his head and cried, and Empress Lu walked to his side without thinking, hugged him, asked him to sit down, and gently wiped the tears from his face.

Liu Chang did not question, nor was he angry.

In the Jiaofang Palace, there was only one sad and helpless child, crying in his mother's arms.

The mother gently soothes her child.

She knew that this was her child, and no one could snatch it away.
