"In this battle against the Xiongnu, Qi mobilized the most soldiers and made a lot of meritorious contributions... It seems that the king of Qi has governed the country of Qi well. ”

"Back to the Queen Mother, this is all the work of Cao Xiang at the beginning, if it weren't for Cao Xiang, Qi would not have recovered so quickly."

Liu Fei replied respectfully.

Liu Ying said with a smile: "Mother, it's rare for my brother to come back once. State affairs can be discussed during the meeting. Why didn't my Jews come? ”

"He was pestering me to come with me... However, I dismissed a lot of generals in the Qi country, and I was afraid that there would be any turmoil in the country, so I kept him. ”

A few people chatted, and the atmosphere was as always.

But Liu Chang keenly felt the difference, he was immersed in the joy of his brother's return, and he didn't pay attention, this is at this moment, but he saw some anger on his mother's face, Empress Lu has a straight face all day long, what she is thinking, few people can know, but Liu Chang is by his mother's side all day long, and when he sees the slight knowledge, he can see at a glance that his mother's mood is not as calm as she shows at the moment.

Liu Chang looked at the eldest brother sitting on the top seat, and couldn't help but squint his eyes.

The attendant brought wine, bowed his head, and stood in front of the people.

Liu Ying didn't notice anything unusual at all, and at the moment, he was happily saying, "Now I also have a child. Hahaha, what an indescribable joy... The eldest brother really didn't say it wrong at the beginning, he really loved it... No matter how busy I am now, I have to go to see it at least ten times a day..."

"Hahaha, it's okay now, when the child grows a little older, you won't think so! The daughter is fine, but the son is too noisy! ”

Liu Chang said unhappily: "My son is obedient, and he rarely cries on weekdays!" ”

"You were also well-behaved at the beginning, you were held by your mother all day long, and you didn't cry, aren't you quite noisy now?"

Liu Fei said with a smile, Liu Fei is Liu Bang's illegitimate son... Before marrying Empress Lu, he already had this child, and the age gap between Liu Fei and the other children was very large, basically watching them grow up, because Liu Bang was busy with state affairs, the princes after Liu Ying were basically raised by Liu Fei, not like a big brother, but like their father.

Although Liu Fei is older, because of his identity, he is not taken seriously, so he is not bold and generous, a bit like Liu Hui, Liu Chang's fifth brother, but he is not as fat as Liu Hui.

The two brothers immediately began to talk about Liu Chang's troubles when he was young, and they chatted with relish.

"When he was a child, he liked to play with Ruyi the most, Ruyi liked to pile the city in the dirt, and this guy staggered over and trampled down all the cities, making Ruyi cry."

"Hahaha, yes, I remembered, did he pluck his father's beard?"

"Yes, my father hugged him excitedly and put him on his shoulder... directly urinated on my father's body, which made my father scold! ”

"Hahaha, yes, my father didn't have time to change his clothes at that time, so he went to the court in that outfit, and the ministers asked, and he also said that he was attacked by assassins... The ministers were almost scared to death! ”

"Once I saw him in the palace, I just squinted for a while, and he ruined my mother's double-layer nine-layer lacquer makeup, and I followed my mother's appearance.

I used all the fat, ze, powder, dai, and incense to myself, hahaha, and I know how to put eyebrows on my lips! ”

"My mother came back, didn't say a word, and beat me up... How aggrieved I was, I was beaten without doing anything. Liu Fei shook his head,

Laugh.

Liu Chang was furious, he looked at Empress Lu and shouted, "Mother, look at them!" ”

Empress Lu's face softened a little, and she glanced at Liu Chang, "What they say is the truth... The dowry that your father gave me was originally my most precious thing, but you destroyed it. ”

"I'll pay it, I can't pay it!"

Liu Chang muttered.

"Brother, Qi sent 50,000 troops this time, it won't have much impact on the country, right?"

"Don't worry, the Qi State can currently recruit 200,000 soldiers, as long as the time is not long, it will not have much impact on the country!"

Liu Fei happily talked about the development of Qi State, with a little pride on his face, over the years, Cao Shen has indeed governed Qi State well,

The foundation of Qi is good, and Liu Fei is also relatively generous, willing to delegate power to ministers, and adopts the method of ruling by inaction, so that the national strength of Qi State has recovered rapidly, and it has begun to approach the manpower and material resources of the Warring States Period.

Liu Fei said very happily, but Empress Lu's face became more and more gloomy.

Liu Chang almost scolded angrily.

"Mother... I'm feeling a little unwell... I've eaten too much, take me to rest..."

"You go to the Imperial Doctor yourself."

Lu Hou said coldly, but Liu Ying and Liu Fei hurriedly looked at Liu Chang, "Eldest brother? Abdominal pain? ”

"It's fine... Eat up. ”

Empress Lu slowly stood up, looked at the attendant in front of him, and said coldly: "King Qi has come from afar, you can toast me." ”

Liu Fei hurriedly got up and was about to toast the Queen Mother.

"Okay, you King Qi! As a king, dare you be so rude?! ”

Liu Chang roared violently.

Liu Fei looked at Liu Chang in surprise, Liu Ying was about to speak, but Liu Chang got up and kicked over the attendant in front of him, and the attendant fell to the ground with the wine, Liu Chang scolded: "Father's mourning period has not passed, so he wants to drink?!" How can you be worthy of my father?! ”

Immediately, Liu Chang glared at Liu Fei fiercely and scolded: "I respect you as a brother, you sit on the top position, and I don't pay attention to it, but you actually want to drink during the mourning period?!" You erect! Can't you fool me when I'm young?! ”

"You think I wouldn't dare beat you up when you're older, do you? I'm a kid who understands the truth, but you don't understand, don't you?! ”

Liu Chang rolled up his sleeves and was about to step forward to dry the rack.

Liu Ying was furious, pushed Liu Chang away, and roared angrily: "Shaft!! Daring! The eldest brother is the father! How dare you?! ”

Liu Fei looked at the young brother in front of him in a daze, for a while, he was full of grief and anger, and he couldn't speak, he was silent for a long time, and said goodbye to the Queen Mother.

With his head down, he turned around and walked out of the Jiaofang Palace.

Liu Ying eagerly chased after him.

Liu Chang looked at them angrily, and then looked at Empress Lu on the side, "Mother! They deceive people too much! ”

Empress Lu just calmly watched the two brothers go away, and then, she said coldly: "Soft and hard... Are you determined to help outsiders fight against me? ”

The anger on Liu Chang's face suddenly disappeared, and his appearance became calm.

"Mother... If one day, King Qi must die... Then I'll do it myself, I'll be infamous for killing my relatives and being spurned by future generations, it doesn't matter, I don't care... However, I must not let my mother bear such a notoriety. ”

"My mother is the mother of the Han Dynasty... In the world, there is only one wicked person in this big man, and that is me Liu Chang! ”

"Mother, when do you want me to do it?"

Empress Lu trembled all over, pursed her lips, did not answer, turned around and walked into the inner room.

Liu Fei returned to his residence, looking lonely, Liu Chang's words gave him great harm, after the king, his relationship with several other brothers was cold, only Liu Chang, who was closest to him, he regarded Liu Chang as his own child, extremely loving, but today, this person who was treated as his son insulted him in front of him, and wanted to do something to him.

Liu Fei sat lonely and looked ahead.

"Do you think I won't dare beat you?!"

Liu Chang's angry fist waving appeared in front of him.

"Brother~ Ruyi refuses to let me hit him~"

The little Liu Chang stretched out his hands, and the appearance of crying in front of him also kept appearing in front of him.

Several pictures kept appearing in front of him, Liu Fei only felt that his mood was getting heavier and heavier, and he shook his head bitterly, in the future, there is no need for him to come to Chang'an, and now, he really doesn't have any close relatives in Chang'an...

"The king? King? ”

The accompanying advisers shouted in a low voice, and Liu Fei woke up in shock, his eyes were a little moist, but he still squeezed out a smile, "Internal history... It's okay to be outnumbered. ”

"I think the king is very sad, isn't the Son of Heaven to blame?"

"It's not..."

The adviser asked again and again, and Liu Fei finally told the adviser what happened today, and the adviser was terrified when he listened, "The king actually walked with His Majesty... Also sitting with the upper seat??? ”

Liu Fei looked at him suspiciously, "What?" It's Your Majesty who wants me."

The advisor trembled, "O king... Even if Your Majesty resigns, you can't really accept it."

"Although you are old, you are still a minister of the Son of Heaven... When the emperor was alive, your eldest father came to worship him as a courtier, but the emperor had no choice but to be named the emperor, so he did not continue to visit... Do you also want to be the emperor? ”

Liu Fei was shocked and suddenly realized.

"You know, if it weren't for King Tang, you would have died in the Jiaofang Palace today..."

"What?!"

The same scene also happened in Ganquan Palace.

When Empress Cao saw the sullen Son of Heaven, she also asked the reason.

"Alas... Liu Chang, you don't know this erection... Brother is here today..."

Liu Ying told the queen everything that happened, and then said sadly: "My brother has always treated the elder as his own child, before this erector went around looking for people to beg, and the elder brother quietly followed him to meet those princes and kings one after another, and pleaded several times, and did not hesitate to give away the material resources of the Qi State, so that the Tang Kingdom got so many things."

"I said I wanted to make the chief king... The eldest brother personally played and wanted to divide the Qi country into the richest - >>

place, let the father give it to Liu Chang, and take care of him personally. Liu Chang is the most rude person in the world who is not qualified to be rude to his brother! ”

Liu Ying became more and more excited, but Empress Cao pondered.

She asked helplessly, "Does Your Majesty want to kill King Qi?" ”

Liu Ying was shocked, "What do you mean by this?!" ”

"Your Majesty... You are now the co-lord of the world, even if you are in private, how can you let the king of Qi walk with you and let the king of Qi sit on the throne?

Isn't this forcing the ministers to kill the King of Qi? ”

"How so... Privately..."

"What about in private? In public and private, you are the Son of Heaven, don't you wear a crown clothes, are you not the Son of Heaven? ”

"If the ministers learn about this, will the King of Qi still be alive?"

Liu Ying understood a little, and he asked again: "Then Liu Chang can also say it directly, why are you so rude??" ”

Empress Cao was silent for a moment, her face was a little hesitant, she gritted her teeth, and said, "If the matter is urgent, King Qi is in danger of death at that time?" ”

"How can this be", Liu Ying only said a few words, and the whole person became stiff in an instant, as if he was frozen, his hands trembled slightly, "I... He", Liu Ying was stunned, he shook his head violently, "Don't"

Seeing that the Son of Heaven finally woke up, Queen Cao looked at him helplessly.

"I'm going to Jiaofang Palace!"

Liu Ying got up violently, and Empress Cao asked bitterly, "Does Your Majesty want to kill me?" ”

"This!"

Liu Ying was completely speechless, and sat in front of Queen Cao in a daze.

"For... Why? ”

Liu Ying's eyes were red, he never thought that his mother actually wanted to attack his brother, although he was not born to his mother, but he also called her mother, how could she bear to do it. Seeing Liu Ying's appearance, Empress Cao said seriously: "Your Majesty has a good heart, this is the blessing of the people of the world." ”

"After you ascended the throne, you continued to reduce taxes, no longer carried out forced labor, and the officials ruled Qingming, and even the construction of Weiyang Palace was stopped by you...

The people of the world are grateful to you."

"It's just that this is unfortunate for your close relatives."

"If Your Majesty really wants them to live in peace, you must learn to be a wicked person and maintain the majesty of the emperor... Just like the first emperor, when the first emperor joked with others, no one was kinder than him, but if the first emperor was angry, no one was afraid of the ministers."

Liu Chang sat on the steps in front of the pavilion, holding his chin with both hands, and looked up at Xingyue blankly.

Suddenly, a garment was draped over him.

Liu Chang turned his head, and Liu Ying sat beside him.

"Why did my brother come here too?"

"Can't sleep... Come here and walk around, how about you? ”

"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk."

The two brothers fell silent and sat quietly.

It was Liu Chang who took the lead in breaking the silence, "Actually, I came out to take refuge, I was afraid that you would go to the Jiaofang Hall to nag, but I didn't expect to be caught by you." ”

Liu Ying smiled, raised her head, and looked at the full moon.

"Eldest brother... I misunderstood you... I'm sorry I scolded you today. ”

"Brother, the Son of Heaven can't admit his mistakes to the princes and kings."

"But the second brother can secretly admit his mistake to the seventh brother, right?"

Liu Chang didn't speak, but Liu Ying slowly grabbed his hand, "Eldest brother. In the future, you don't have to pretend to be a wicked person for me, I will change myself, no matter what, I will never let you bear the notoriety! Everything has me."

Liu Chang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Liu Ying a few times, "My sister-in-law is quite smart!" ”

"How do you know?"

"Second brother, don't blame me for speaking straight, if no one wakes up, if you want to figure out this matter yourself, you will probably have to wait until Liu Xiang hugs his grandson."

"Then maybe someone else is waking up?"

"It's almost night, who doesn't want to die, enter the palace at night to give advice?"

"The eldest brother is getting smarter and smarter."

"I'm not like you."

"You're saying I'm stupid."

"It's either stupid, it's too simple... Too kind... I'm so stupid and always scolds me for being a shaft. ”

Liu Ying smiled and rubbed Liu Chang's head, "Insulting the Son of Heaven is a capital crime!" ”

"I even scolded my father, and he didn't execute me! Today really pisses me off, I remind you like that, all kinds of efforts, you two fools, you just don't understand, if I'm older than you, I really have to hang you up and beat... I only hate my youth! ”

Liu Ying smiled bitterly, he hesitated for a moment, and asked, "I have to do something... Eldest brother, the ministers of the court and the central government have been arguing all day long... Everything has to be noisy, only Cao Xiang can suppress them... Is there anything you can do? ”

Liu Chang's eyes lit up, "Oh, brother, are you asking me for advice?" ”

"yes."

"You should have asked a long time ago! Who am I? I am a faithful friend with Liuhou, and I am in constant contact, and even Liuhou is full of praise for my wisdom.

With a talent like me, it's really a waste to be a prince and a king! Since my brother asked, then I will give him a plan! ”

"Brother, tomorrow's time for the court."

Liu Chang whispered, Liu Ying's eyes widened, listened carefully, and nodded from time to time.

"Eldest brother... Wouldn't that be too much? ”

"Hey, my brother will listen to me, if you don't give them a long memory, you won't be able to suppress them!"

As soon as the next day dawned, the king of Qi came to the Xuanshu Palace, he respectfully greeted the Son of Heaven, made a big salute, and there was no longer any smugness on his face.

Seeing him like this, Liu Ying didn't help him, but just had a cold face.

"King Qi! I heard that you want to drink during your mourning? Can it be true? ”

Liu Fei was stunned for a while, but fortunately, he quickly figured it out and hurriedly apologized to the Son of Heaven.

"As the chief of the princes, you should not have committed such a wrong, thinking that you were dissuaded and did not do wrong. I will not punish you much, and I will make you prostrate for three days before going to the spiritual seat of your father! Sincerely ask for sin! Did you know?! ”

Liu Ying asked solemnly.

Liu Fei confessed his guilt again, and then left the Xuanshu Hall with his head down.

The attendants around were stunned, looking at Liu Ying's appearance, they were dumbfounded, if they hadn't seen him for a day, why had the Son of Heaven changed? Even the King of Qi has to be punished?? And the news of King Qi's punishment soon came out, causing everyone to be shocked.

When Empress Lu learned about this, she couldn't help but squint, and then, her eyes quickly fell on Liu Chang's body.

"Mother... What's inside, I'm going to study, I'm a little busy today... I'll probably come back later... Leave! ”

When the ministers came to the court, they were also talking about this matter, and they all felt a little incredible, didn't Your Majesty respect King Qi the most? Why did you suddenly punish the king of Qi? What's going on??

When the ministers entered the palace and saw Liu Ying, the doubts in their hearts were even greater, because Liu Ying at this moment was with a straight face, looking extremely serious, which was completely different from the past.

At the beginning of the normal court discussion, but as soon as the discussion about the right to appoint, the ministers began to argue again, some people supported the withdrawal of the appointment power of all officials in the vassal states, and some insisted on only taking back officials above 100 stones.

The ministers were arguing, but this time, Liu Ying didn't say a word, just looked at them coldly.

Fan roared again, Shusun Tong warned him again, not to roar in the palace, the two quarreled for a long time, and did not see the Son of Heaven to dissuade him, and he was also confused in his heart, and the quarrel of everyone gradually disappeared, and he was thinking: Why didn't Your Majesty come to dissuade me today? We're all about to fight?

The ministers gradually quieted down, and secretly looked at the Son of Heaven on the throne.

I saw Liu Ying's expression serious, just looking at them indifferently, I don't know why... The ministers suddenly felt that the one sitting on top was not Liu Ying, but... The first emperor, a feeling of uneasiness enveloped the ministers, and everyone bowed their heads and did not say a word.

"Noisy, go on... Why isn't it noisy? ”

Liu Ying said coldly, and the ministers were even more afraid to speak.

"Someone's coming!"

Liu Ying gave an order, and suddenly a soldier rushed into the hall, Liu Ying said: "Throw the weapon to them!" ”

The armorers threw the weapons in their hands on the ground, and Liu Ying said coldly: "Don't just quarrel, come, take the weapons, fight each other, whoever survives, I will listen to whoever suggests, take it!" ”

"Your Majesty!!"

The ministers knelt down in front of Liu Ying suddenly.

"I said, take your weapons and fight each other, or I'll pull you all out and behead you!"

"Didn't you think of my main hall as a battlefield? Okay, I'll let you get your wish!! ”

"Your Majesty forgives !! sins"

The crowd knelt down again.

Liu Ying looked at everyone coldly, her eyes finally fell on Fan Xu's body, and she secretly apologized in her heart, and then said loudly: "Wuyang Hou roared in the temple, come on, drag it out, fifty !! ”

The ministers were terrified.
