Chapter 39: Weiyang Zifu
"Master, what do you think?"
Liu asked in front of him.
"Big brother, how is that Sang Hong sheep under your door?" Liu went to ask a rhetorical question without answering.
Liu Wen touched his nose, and there was a slight sadness between his eyebrows, "He instinctively wins, but he has no choice but to kill Zhang Manqian halfway." You don't know, I have secretly looked through Zhang Manqian's test papers, this person's humanities and knowledge are amazing, and when I saw it tonight, I am even more sure that this person is definitely not a thing in the pool. On the contrary, Sang Hongyang is too sharp, and he is afraid that at that time, it will be too rigid and easy to break, and it will be difficult to balance it. β
"Oh, I see! Uncle Shi, no wonder you don't get angry tonight, you have been staring at Zhang Manqian. Haha, uncle, you won't, you won't be...... There's that kind of love, right? Liu laughed when he heard this.
"Fuck off! I'm just suave, okay? My standard is a word of gold. Liu Wen's eyebrows moved, and he flew a wave.
Liu Ju was almost killed by his cold humor and expression, and after a while, Fang Hahaha stopped laughing and said, "Don't laugh, don't laugh, there's still business to do." By the way, Master, have you checked Zhang Manqian's details? I see, he and Ji Di are not just teachers and protΓ©gΓ©s. β
When Liu heard this, his eyelids were raised, and he glanced at the hanging beams in the house.
One of them floated away.
"Uncle's! Hot springs, can you not be so silent every time you appear? Scared to death! Liu Ji snorted and bounced.
The man on the ground landed on one knee, his face covered with a black cloth, and when he raised his eyes, his eyes were sharp, and he slowly replied, "No." As the saying goes, people are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed. In case the Taishi is assassinated again one day, his subordinates are the last line of defense for the Taishi. Appearing is a must. As the saying goes, if the enemy does not move, I will not move. β
According to the black line, Liu muttered in a low voice, "Cut, could it be that when the master and the master and the master and the wife were that and that, you also lay on the beam of the room and watched?" β
Hot Spring thought for a while, and replied seriously, "The Taishi can be the air when I am, not to mention, the Taishi is ......."
After being glanced at by Liu Qu murderously, the hot spring immediately changed to an extremely stern voice, "Master, according to the news brought back by Yunhai, Zhang Manqian and Ji Dianshi are senior brothers, and they have both studied under the monk Dongfang Shuomen. β
"Dongfang Shuo is a generation of Confucianism." Liu Wen frowned slightly, his fingers were bent, and he tapped on the table, "It's a pity that he is very arrogant, he is high-minded, and the emperor has sent people to invite him many times, but he has not been able to ask for it." If he was willing, he would already be an important minister of my Han by now. Second brother, look at tomorrow ......"
"I don't care. Big brother, if your three sheep lose tomorrow, see how I kill you and him. Okay, go to Weiyang Palace immediately, if you don't go over, I'm afraid the queen will invite the emperor to come to me in person. β
Liu Wen's handsome face, which did not change color even before Mount Tai collapsed, finally collapsed all at once. Queen Mother, please, you should kill your godson first.
At this moment, Empress Wei Zifu was indeed very angry.
The three of them went to Weiyang Palace to see the ceremony, only to see Empress Wei sneering on the soft couch in the middle and not saying a word.
Empress Wei is just in her early thirties, and she is well-maintained on weekdays, and she is naturally beautiful, so she looks more and more gorgeous, like a young girl. But there was an awe-inspiring aura between the eyebrows, revealing some age slightly, and at first glance, it seemed that it had gone through half a lifetime of vicissitudes.
At that time, she was still cardamom, and occasionally saw the first emperor, the first emperor admired her and was out of control, but the courtiers objected, and the first thing to bear was Liu Qu's father.
Then, in a few days, there was a rebellion by King Hengshan, and the first emperor died violently, and then he was succeeded by Liu Che, the king of Dongjiao, who had been living in seclusion, and the first to bear the brunt of the public opinion was Liu Qu's father again.
In the first year of Emperor Wu's succession, after Wei Zifu entered the palace, he was in the limelight since then. In the following years, she gave birth to the crown prince Liu Ju and Princess Weichang, Princess Shiyi, and Princess Zhuyi.
Later, Liu went to the palace with his father as the teacher of the prince and princess, and lived in the palace for a long time to assist his father. After his father died, Liu was in charge of everything in the palace.
The events of that year were very implicated, rabbits and dogs were cooked, birds were hidden, and all people involved in the world were wiped out, and a "thorough investigation of cross-crossing misscruliness" action was set up in the Han Dynasty, resulting in the massacre of traversers that are still terrifying, and the corpses were all over the field, and tens of thousands of people became pits.
Subsequently, Empress Wei and Emperor Wu rewarded Liu Qu, and took pity on his mother and recognized him as a righteous son. The position of the Grand Master.
The two are not mother and son, but they are better than mother and son.
Wei Zifu is usually light and not angry, but now his eyebrows are strong, under the lamp, gorgeous clothes, golden hairpins swaying, and a touch of scarlet lips, he can't help but be scared of life.
Liu Ju was scared in his heart, and still wanted to say a few words for Liu, but he was pulled hard by Liu Wen and shouted "Don't add fuel to the fire", so he was stunned.
Liu Qu stood on the jade steps with his hands in his hands, and did not speak, his thin lips pursed slightly, a little bit of listening to the instructions but not compromising.
The atmosphere was deadlocked, until the woman under Wei Zifu frowned slightly and said, "Queen Mother, Taishi, Ruo Yan feels a little unwell, and wants to retire first." β
Wei Zifu snorted coldly, "You girl, what do you think in your heart that you don't know about this palace?" Do you want to let the Taishi accompany you in this palace? β
It was Liu Qu's concubine Shi Ruoyan who spoke just now.
Hearing this, she swept her eyes and lowered her head and replied, "Ruo Yan doesn't dare." β
Wei Zifu snorted coldly, Fang Ning frowned and looked at Liu, "You don't like other girls, but Shangyuan Festival just looks at her more." Her wedding is imminent, and you don't hesitate to use the 'poisoning' thing to keep her. Seeing that you were insistent, this palace became more and more opposed in her heart, and finally accepted her as a righteous daughter and let her stay in the palace. The outside world thinks that you are deliberately trying to suck down the spirit. Master, are you really like this? It's a good warning to Ji Di, but you're only afraid of this woman, right? This palace advises you, in the past few years, you must not touch her, until you bring Ji Di down. Otherwise, she will be a curse. Ruoyan's grievances, you should also see in your eyes. β
"The teachings of the stepmother, go and remember them in your heart."
"Remember? Where do you remember? I deliberately released Tao Wangqing out of the palace today, so I wanted her to go home for activities and meet Ji Di, but you brought her back? Wei Zifu stood up suddenly, slapped his palm on the desk, and with that bang, he really scared Aunt Xia, who was serving tea next to him.
The female official who went to the inn to find Zhao Xing to convey the message that day has been following Wei Zifu for many years.
Shi Ruoyan was not small, and she was also frightened at this time.
But Liu Qu laughed softly: "Mother-in-law, how many things have you insisted on deciding over the years?" His voice was faint, so calm that he could not see his anger or joy.
Wei Zifu stared at the increasingly tall and handsome righteous son in front of him, and the events of these years passed by one after another.
Liu Qu, also known as Liu Quji. His mother is Xiahou Huan, the sister of Liu Wen's mother Xiahou Wan, who came to the house to visit the pregnant eldest sister, but was unexpectedly taken by Liu Qi, the king of the court, and accepted as a concubine.
However, first, Xiahou Huan is not as good as her eldest daughter Xiahou Wan regardless of her background and knowledge, and second, King Mu is just greedy for freshness, and what she really respects and likes in her heart is still the original wife Xiahou Wan.
At that time, Xiahou Wan gave birth to a baby boy, the eldest son of Liu Qi, the king of Miao, and his status was more graceful than before. At this time, Liu Qi had long forgotten Xiahou Huan's save. It's just that Xiahou Wan still couldn't swallow the breath in her heart, and when she learned that Xiahou Huan was also pregnant, she became more and more angry, so she wanted to lynch Xiahou Huan with a cane.
The people in the house were shocked, and it was not that they did not report the news, but the king of Mi loved his wife even more, so he did not know if he turned a blind eye. At that time, Wei Zifu stayed in the palace because he was valued by the former emperor, and for the sake of the former Jinlan sisters, he left the palace overnight and saved Liu Qu's mother with a royal card.
Xiahou Wan naturally did not dare to disobey the emperor's order, and knew that her identity was special, and the future situation was even more unknown. Therefore, after that, he didn't dare to kill Xiahou Huan's mother and son, but he made all those small efforts and pastimes slowly change his ways to torture the mother and son.
Later, for some reason, Xiahou Huan suddenly fell ill overnight and died violently.
Then, Liu Qu was sent to the palace to do miscellaneous labor with "a fierce life, hitting his father and mother", although Princess Pingyang saw it for the sake of the Suri sisters, and entrusted the emperor with her talent to be the master of the princes, it was also a meaning of protection.
However, no one in the palace knew his details, so he was even more humiliated among the princes in the palace.
And she has only met one man in her life, a man who looks down on the world. This man has a harem of 3,000, and the women of the world are at their disposal, but he is only willing to be good to her in his life.
She used to ask for a lot, glory, wealth, and even vanity that overwhelmed the world......
However, there is only one thing she is calculating now, that is, to turn the tide, so that she and he can hold the hand of her son and grow old with him.
In the past, he tried his best to protect her, so now she naturally has to do her best to protect him and their children.
Emperor Wu loved her very much, and he was worried that her dreams would be fragile and the water would run out. Therefore, since the day of his accession to the throne, except for the important affairs and the issuance of pardons, all the affairs of the DPRK and China have been dispersed to the ministers of the DPRK and China, and they only claim to be unwell.
Fortunately, if the ministers of the court and the central government are not the old ministers of the previous emperor, they are also the sons of those old ministers, plus Empress Wei's iron wrists, and Wei Qing controls the military power, so there has been no right and wrong for many years.
It's just that some old ministers such as Liu Qu and Ji Di knew that before Emperor Wu ascended the throne, he was hunted down, imprisoned, imprisoned and imprisoned by political enemies, and even his face was ruined, so he didn't want to show it.
His appearance is hideous and terrifying, frightening, and manic, with occasional seizures, Hu Tian is dark, like a savage, and the palace maids around him can't bear it, even a few courtiers who have seen him are also quite disgusted. Empress Wei was the only one, and she loved and pitied him very much as before, and every time she looked at each other, the admiration in her eyes made everyone present blush, and it was not like a fake.
Therefore, not to mention others, Liu Qu is from the bottom of his heart, and he sincerely admires such a woman.
When he first met Wei Zifu, he was only seven or eight years old, and Wei Zifu was only in his teens at that time.
On that day, when the full moon was like frost, he crouched on the edge of the long palace wall, clutching in his hand a dirty and tattered silk cloth, which contained the leftovers of cold rice from the miscellaneous servants he had secretly picked up.
Moonlight habitat, his thin figure cowered in the moonlight, his hands desperately pulling, licking those who eat, there was only one thought in his heart, he wanted to live, he couldn't live like this forever, he couldn't die.
At that time, Wei Zifu was also opposed by the courtiers and was not included in the harem by the former emperor.
Each of the hundred officials wrote more than a dozen books a day, all of which said that Wei Zifu was red and bad, and Han Zhida was self-sufficient.
She didn't know who he was at the time, and after rescuing her that day, she never asked about the mother and son.
She was also a poor man, and she reached out and touched his head in a ghostly manner.
He raised his head and said, "Sister, I haven't eaten anything for many days, if I continue like this, I will starve to death, you can save me, okay?" β
She was stunned for a moment, and half-jokingly said, "What good is it for me to save you?" β
"Now you protect me, and when I grow up, I will protect you." He thought about it for a long time, and finally, cautiously, said so.
At that time, his face was sallow, but his amber eyes shone like stars.
Although she knew that the man loved her deeply, she believed that he would do anything for her. It's just that she is more afraid of losing, and she is even more afraid that in the end this is just a dream.
Therefore, when those criticisms were overwhelming, she even thought about going away, hiding from now on, and being at peace with him.
But when she met Liu, she rekindled this fire in her heart. Perhaps, she can gamble again......
Later, even though she had four children, her love for Liu Qu never diminished by half a point, just like he was originally her own flesh and blood, her younger brother.
Human beings are such strange creatures that they can pour out a single emotion.
Regardless of whether that emotion has touched others, or whether it has only touched yourself.
No one knows better than her that it has not been easy for Liu to go over the years.
At that time, Liu Qi, the king of Miao, the first emperor, and even any minister in the court, regarded him as a waste wood for many years. Because of her, he was sent by Emperor Wu to various counties and states in desperation, from one place to another, and his political achievements were outstanding.
In the palace, in the dispute between the princes and the princes, he completely subdued the sons born to Liu Wen and Liu Ju, the two favorite women of King Mu and Emperor Wu. They were willing to follow him by his side and accompany him to fight against the thorns of the Manchu Dynasty.
He even did what she didn't dare to think about again, and fulfilled the promise of that day, so that she and that person could avoid the deep palace and not be disturbed by the outside world.
Over the years, he has ignored popular speculation and said that he was a wolf. silently, for her and him to block those who want to perverse.
He is no longer afraid of the shame he once had, and he no longer hides the identity of his biological mother like an abscess. He jokingly called himself Xiahou XII, and everyone in the court knew it.
Over the years, except for Shi Ruoyan, who he personally said he liked and married, he really didn't seem to want anything. Before Ruo Yan, there was not even a happy girl in his house; In terms of diet, he is also casual. On several occasions, she went to see him in the local area, and he was supervising the construction of the river dam, and the workers had a simple white bun and pickles......
Even now under one person, above ten thousand.
It's not that she didn't suspect his intentions, and she and Emperor Wu didn't shy away from it, but they had secretly mentioned him, the way of heaven is clear, and some things cannot be reversed.
He smiled, as if he understood.
But she always believed in her heart that he wouldn't.
Her thoughts suddenly froze on an incident five years ago, and her cold heart trembled slightly and invisibly.
At this time, Liu went to the small couch, picked up the cloak on the couch, slowly draped it on her, and bowed, "Mother-in-law, you have to think carefully about tomorrow's countermeasures." Go to the illness and retire first, and come back tomorrow to ask your stepmother for peace, and please don't embarrass Tao Wangqing again. β
"Well, for now. Sickness, tomorrow's countermeasures, it's really impossible, we might as well let Ji Di play a game! This palace has also thought about it in every way, this matter is difficult. β
In the palace at night, looking at Liu Qu, who was thinking slowly about something in front of her, Shi Ruoyan's thoughts slowly became complicated, and she sighed unconsciously.
Suddenly, Liu went back and looked at her, raising his eyebrows evilly, "What are you sighing for?" Don't you think this king has snubbed you, don't you? β
Pity the eleventh and thirteenth twelve, Ben followed behind Shi Ruoyan, and walked slowly with their speed, and immediately turned around to avoid at this time.
Don't look at indecent things, don't listen to indecent people.
