Chapter 513: The Natural Limits of Imperial Power
The emperor picked up the chopsticks and said, "The queen still doesn't eat at night, so you can use some with me today." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
The queen smiled and picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in the emperor's bowl: "Well, this dish is good, Your Majesty will taste it first." ā
After the emperor tasted it, he felt that it was indeed good, so he gave the queen a piece as well. The two of them eat together, and it really tastes like a husband and wife raising their eyebrows, but in fact, the two haven't eaten together for more than two months.
After eating, Emperor Wu and Wei Zifu started to come again. This routine is all ready-made. The difference is that Emperor Wu simply rested in the Jiaofang Hall today. After a while with Wei Zifu, the long-lost gentleness almost made Wei Zifu forget this taste. It's been at least a year.
Wei Zifu, who was very satisfied, lay on Emperor Wu's shoulder weakly, and fell asleep with a smile on his face.
Emperor Wu quietly looked at Wei Zifu's face on the side. Although he is already a little old, in his thirties. But the charm still exists. The same as it was back then. Slightly changed. But I can't tell what it is.
But in the face of this face, Emperor Wu had long since lost the Qi Qi heart that he had met at the beginning of the year. What women want, and what men want women to do, Liu Che is not clear in his heart.
It would be nice if it was that simple, only satisfying oneself and having nothing else to do after giving birth to a dragon son for oneself.
But things in the world are not so simple. If Liu Ju wants to sit firmly on the throne of the crown prince, then Wei Zifu is extremely important to him. There is Wei Zifu sitting in the Jiaofang Palace, and Liu Ju is the eldest son of the real brand. It is unshakable in every way.
This was extremely beneficial to the growth of the crown prince. But after the crown prince ascended the throne, he also died, and this advantage instantly became a disadvantage, and then Liu Ju would have a queen mother who held real power in his hands, even more than the queen mother back then.
The Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager, has always been the emperor's biggest confidant, and it is a shackle that cannot be removed from the imperial power.
Those things that happened back then, when he was young, Liu Che didn't understand very well, how Liu Rong died. But by the time grandma and Dou Ying died, Liu Che had fully understood the truth of these things. And the truth is far from what you can bear.
Liu Che and Princess Pingyang's mother secretly persecuted the former crown prince Liu Rong, the king of Linjiang. Privately intercepted Liu Rong's last letter to his grandmother. made Liu Rong die of fright.
Would Emperor Han Jing not know? He actually knows everything. Liu Che's mother became the last thorn that Emperor Han Jing wanted to pull out and was a little timid.
Emperor Jing of Han, who has been the crown prince for thirty-three years, but has only been an emperor for more than ten years, has been paving the way for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty all his life, clearing the obstacles for him in the future. Only this Liu Che's biological mother, Emperor Han Jing is not good at making rash moves.
Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty could only prepare two back-ups, the first was to let his mother, Liu Che's grandmother, master the tiger talisman after his death.
Liu Che's grandmother, the Empress Dowager Dou. is the empress of Emperor Wen and the daughter-in-law of Gaozu Liu Bang, who was a Empress Lu who wrestled her wrist back then. When it comes to the art of trade-offs, there is no other in the world. There is a Dou family holding a tiger talisman sitting in Changle Palace. But Liu Che's mother, the Queen Mother, did not dare to have the slightest thought in her heart.
And another trick is Dou Ying. Before his death, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty summoned his cousin Wei Qihou Dou Ying to Ganquan Palace and granted a secret edict, clearly stating that if one day the queen mother wanted to follow the example of the Empress Dowager Lu, he would cause trouble in the court. asked Dou Ying to raise troops to quell the chaos with his edict.
Who knew that Dou Ying, who was shrewd in the end, was actually killed by the Queen Mother and Tian Wei with a backhand.
Before the death of the Empress Dowager Dou, when she was dying, she told Emperor Wu about what her mother had done in Liu Rong's matter, and told him about the dangers of the mother and son's young troubles and disrupting the government. Liu Che was deeply shocked.
In the end, I saw my mother Queen Mother and Uncle Tian Wei join forces to force Dou Ying to death, and no one in the government and the opposition could restrain the Queen Mother. Liu Che jumped out in time and had a showdown with his mother, clearly pointing out that the queen mother was not allowed to participate in court politics. Let the Queen Mother die depressed. In the end, he brought down his uncle Tian Wei and made him go crazy directly.
What a resemblance of history. A queen mother, an uncle. If Liu Che doesn't handle it well, what will the future government be eroded into.
Emperor Wu's heart was heavy, and he couldn't sleep with Wei Zifu in his arms. He crept off the couch. Push the door and go. Su Wen was awakened, and was startled when he saw the emperor walking out silently, and hurriedly picked up the brocade robe and put it on the emperor. followed the emperor back to the Xuanmu Palace.
Before dawn the next morning, Wei Zifu woke up leisurely, but saw that the side of the couch was empty. Not only was he a little distracted, but did the emperor really come last night, or did he hallucinate? Are you already hallucinating at this age?
It took two days before everyone realized that something was wrong. But it's impossible to say what's wrong. Only Princess Nangong heard about the emperor's strange whereabouts that day, connected these points together, and carefully recalled the emperor's words covered by clouds and mountains, and seemed to have some understanding. Since I was a child in the palace, I have seen a lot of things. If you come up with something, it's not good to tell your sister directly. I just reminded my sister carefully.
Princess Pingyang was even more confused. It wasn't until the people buried in Chang'an through Xue Qing later knew that the emperor urgently recalled Xue Qing and Zhang Qian, and their hearts jumped suddenly. I knew something was going to happen.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ The dividing line of all evils............
Wei Qing looked inexplicable: "Okay, why don't you resign." It's not that Daddy is greedy for power. But why is that? ā
Huo Quzhi said: "Uncle, we have been thinking about fighting the Huns all our lives, if the Huns have been defeated by us, what are we going to do." The merit is high and the lord is shocked, staying in Chang'an is not to make people unhappy, it is better to make a contribution and retreat bravely. The predecessors of Liuhou are a living example. The old brother who came out with Grandpa Gao, but he has survived until now. ā
Wei Qing couldn't help laughing: "Even if someone else doesn't have an accident, there are few who can get it to this point." I still don't believe what you're saying. Will Liuhou live to this age? Even if you have achieved success in cultivation, the goods are now, why do the living immortals of the idle clouds and wild cranes want to come to you. ā
Xue Qing smiled: "I know that you don't believe it, Daddy." We're embarrassed to ask Liuhou to come over, after all, Daddy is also a junior. However, the daughter took something from Liuhou to testify. ā
Saying that, Xue Qing took out a golden seal letter from her arms, and Wei Qing took it suspiciously, and there were a few big characters on it, the seal of the Great Han Sima. I couldn't help muttering, "You specially minted a gold seal to trick me? (To be continued.) )
