Chapter 136: Soft Legs
Liu Chang had just returned to the palace when the familiar attendants surrounded him again.
Liu Chang looked at them with a helpless expression.
"Why this time? Irrigation found his bow missing? β
"It's not."
"That's General Xiahou coming to complain?"
"It's not."
"Wuyang Hou?"
"Nor is it? Then I didn't do anything... What's wrong? Someone else is being killed, right? β
The attendants shook their heads, and took Liu Chang to the Xuanshu Palace, Liu Chang was seriously thinking about what he had done on the road, but there were too many things to do, and he really couldn't figure out why his brother wanted to send someone to invite him, his father was gone, but Liu Chang's hatred for the Xuanshu Hall was not over, Liu Ying was infected with bad habits, and he was going to pull Liu Chang to the Xuanshu Hall and beat him at every turn.
In fact, Liu Ying beat very lightly, Liu Chang was not afraid of him beating, but he was afraid that he would be reasonable, after Liu Ying finished fighting, he would spend a few hours to reason with Liu Chang, Liu Chang couldn't stand it at all, this is not as good as his father, he will be fine after the fight, which is like Liu Ying, he will come to nag if he is fine.
Of course, now Liu Chang has also grown up, not long ago just passed his tenth birthday, and his height has increased dramatically, he is about to be as tall as Lu Hou, Liu Ying is not good at spanking his ass anymore, usually he is a thug, only Lu Hou, who persistently spanked Liu Chang's ass, Liu Chang also protested, "I'm so old, why do I still spank?" β
Empress Lu scolded angrily: "Don't say that you are only ten years old, that is, twenty or thirty, I want to fight like this!" β
Liu Chang shrunk his neck and had no choice but to accept his fate. The widow and the virtuous king do not care about the female streamers!
In the oath hall, it was not Liu Ying alone, it was still the old configuration, the ministers sat on both sides of Liu Chang, staring at him intently, Liu Chang greeted Liu Ying with a smile, and he was very arrogant, completely ignoring etiquette, "Second brother!" Shusun Tong frowned slightly and reminded: "You should be called Your Majesty." β
Liu Chang looked at him proudly, "When Father was here, I just called Father, why didn't you dare to come to advise at that time?" β
Shusun Tong was speechless for a while.
Liu Ying didn't care about Liu Chang's title at all, now several of his younger brothers call him Your Majesty, even the eldest sister, this is the case, only this younger brother, as always, he is still very happy.
"Eldest brother... I heard that there was a Hu merchant selling horses, but you took him to the Tang Kingdom, is this true? β
"The widow has never seen any Hu merchants."
"Oh, that's fine, let's go back."
"Okay!"
Liu Chang turned around and was about to leave, but Cao Shen stood up with a trembling face and shouted, "Wait! Some time ago, the soldiers defending the city saw the Tang King send the Hu merchant to the Tang Kingdom, why didn't they dare to admit it now? β
"Oh? Cao Xiang is saying that my friend, I let him go to Taiyuan, how about it? β
Cao Shen roared angrily: "The big man lacks horses! The Northern Army is even more lacking! But whenever a Hu merchant comes, the northern army should be selected first, and then purchased by the princes, but now the Tang king has taken all the war horses as his own, how can there be such a reason in the world? ! β
"Cao thief! That's what I did, what can you do?! β
"What's the use of your horses? Is it used to decorate the faΓ§ade of the Northern Army? Tang faced the Xiongnu, what do I want a war horse for? Isn't it so that you people can sit here and talk nonsense? If the Tang Kingdom is breached, what do you want the Northern Army to do? There is no Great Wall to defend, let the Northern Army flee to the south with you?! β
Liu Changfen didn't let go, he was angry, his voice was very loud, and Cao Shen was even more angry.
"Even if there is something wrong with the Tang State, you should notify the ministers first!"
"I informed you, I told my father a long time ago, and my father asked me to send it to the Tang Kingdom." , Liu Chang pointed at Chen Ping and said.
Chen Ping's face twitched, "When..."
"Yes, middle father, I can't let you be responsible, this matter has nothing to do with my middle father, it's my own opinion! How are you going to do it? β
Seeing that Liu Chang was about to make a move with the ministers, Liu Ying hurriedly said: "Eldest brother, forget it, forget it... Chen Hou told me about this, but I forgot. β
Liu Chang was unwilling to stop there, he sat directly on the ground, and shouted loudly: "How bitter my Tang country is, the people are not living, in order to resist the Huns, do you know how tired the widows are?" Yes? This time, I even gave four times as many supplies to buy those war horses, my Tang country is already poor, such an exchange, I really don't know how many people will starve to death! β
"The people of Datang!! I'm sorry for you!! β
Liu Chang howled, "In order to protect the temple, I used up all the materials of the Tang Kingdom to exchange for war horses, and now I still have to suffer such a shame, how miserable it is for the people of the Tang Dynasty!" β
Seeing Liu Changgui crying wolf, Liu Ying looked at Cao Shen helplessly, "Cao Xiang-->>."

Yes... Or..."
Cao Shen had a black face, what the Son of Heaven meant, he didn't understand, he gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, don't be deceived by this erection, then the Tang Kingdom is much richer than the imperial court.. Zhang Cang's house is also shameless, borrowing the materials of the temple and never returning them... The court urged food several times, but he pretended to be, and called a group of old people to cry and mourn, which scared our officials away..."
"In my life, the old man has never seen such a minister... Very stingy... There are dozens of granaries of grain, and they still have to reach out to the temple to ask for food..."
"Fart!"
Liu Chang scolded: "My teacher is Xunzi's personal inheritance, do you look down on Xunzi when you say this?" Do you dare to say that Xunzi is shameless? β
Seeing that Liu Chang was about to knock on such a big hat when he came up, Cao Shen looked at him with disdain and said, "Who doesn't respect Xunzi?" Just his disciples... It's disgusting. β
Although in the end, Liu Chang couldn't let the temple reimburse the materials this time, but the ministers were no longer willing to deal with him, and Cao Shen was even more so, with a foot on his ass, and directly asked him to get out, Liu Chang didn't care, rubbed his buttocks, and left the Xuanshu Hall with a smile.
After he left, Cao Shen said: "The Tang State is close to the Yue Clan, and it is even more direct to the Xiongnu, I think that the Beidi County can also be divided into two, and the upper half can be divided into the Tang State, so that the Tang State can better contact the Yue Clan, and the Han must have allies outside the Sai... Tang Guo needs this even more. β
Hearing Cao Shen's words, Zhou Bo shook his head and said, "The Tang Kingdom is too strong, so you can't do this. β
"No, now, the stronger the Tang State, the better, the Han is not the opponent of the Xiongnu, the Tang State must bear all the pressure, although Zhang Cang is shameless, but he governed the Tang State very well, and even repelled several raids of the Xiongnu, now the Xiongnu are no longer in a stalemate with the Yan State, Mao Dun also noticed the Tang State, Mao Dun is a long-term person, he will never let the Tang State develop with peace of mind... The Tang State was like an iron cone piercing into the waist of the Xiongnu... He's going to make a move. β
Liu Ying looked at Cao Shen in surprise and said, "I thought the prime minister hated King Tang very much." β
"I hate him... However, among the current princes and kings of the Han Dynasty, he is the only one who can resist the Xiongnu... He has this ability and such courage, not to mention, although the Tang King is stubborn, he is very close to His Majesty, and he doesn't have to worry about the Tang Kingdom becoming bigger... But..."
"But what?"
"I'm afraid that after a hundred years, the Tang Kingdom will become a big disaster for the temple."
Cao Shen's words frightened the ministers' faces changed greatly, everyone is an understanding person, and naturally they can see all the hidden dangers of the vassal states, and now Liu Chang is loyal, but what about his son? What about his grandson? But no one dares to mention this kind of thing, if you don't say it well, you will become a divided brother, if it is really because of this, the person who proposes it will definitely be slaughtered by the Son of Heaven as a scapegoat, although the Son of Heaven is merciful now, but there are also unkind ministers around the Son of Heaven.
Liu Ying's face also became not very good-looking, and the ministers lowered their heads, but Cao Shen was not afraid at all.
He said seriously: "However, now that the Huns are powerful, Mao Dun is the real henchman of the Han Dynasty, and before he has the strength to curb this big trouble, other things can not be considered." β
......
When Liu Chang returned to the Jiaofang Palace, there were many people in the hall.
Empress Lu, one of Lu Shi's families, including his wife and son, as well as Fan Xu's family, even Lu Chan came.
"King!"
Lu Chong, Lu Lu, Fan Yan, and Fan Shi hurriedly ran over, gathered around Liu Chang, chattering, Liu Chang led them, and greeted his uncle and aunt with a smile, and then led the children to sit down.
It can be seen that Empress Lu is still quite happy, although she still has a straight face, she is no longer as cold as before.
Lu Shizhi brought a lot of mutton, everyone gathered to eat, the adults sat on it, and Lu Shizhi was smiling and saying something to Lu Hou.
Fan Qing was holding a mutton bone in his hand, this meat was too big, there was no way to start, just when she was sad, Liu Chang smiled and stretched out his hand, Fan Qing gave her the mutton suspiciously, Liu Chang grabbed both sides of the bone, and violently forced, "Click", he handed the separated half of the meat to Fan Qing, and took another piece and ate it himself.
The Jiaofang Hall instantly became extremely quiet.
Lu Shizhi and Fan Xu all looked at Liu Chang who was gobbling up in amazement.
Empress Lu was not surprised, and urged: "You go on..."
"Huh? Where did you just go? β
Lu Shizhi couldn't think of it, he looked at Liu Chang and asked, "This shaft... What the hell is going on? Was this the case when Wuyang Hou was young? β
Fan hesitated for a moment before shaking his head.
"The family is poor... Although they also eat meat... But it wasn't like that when I was young... Strong. β
