"The Imperial Historian and the Minister died for a hundred years, and the Queen Mother: The Prime Minister also fainted, and he has taken his sons and nephews back to the house to recuperate..."

Zhang Yan reluctantly brought up the question raised by the momentum, but finally collapsed again after Zhang Cang's helpless reply.

- The prime minister is not there?

How this should be for the better!

At this time, Zhang Yan's heart can be described as a mess.

In the people, no matter how early a woman is, at Zhang Yan's current age, she is just a woman who feeds her children and becomes a mother for the first time.

What's more, since Zhang Yan was born, she has almost lived under the care of her elders at home, and she has never faced such a complicated situation alone.

When he was born, his father Zhang Ao was still King Zhao, and his mother Princess Lu Yuan was even more powerful; As for my grandmother and grandfather, they are the two most powerful people in the world - Emperor Liu Bang and Empress Lu Pheasant!

After his grandfather died and his uncle Liu Ying ascended the throne, his grandmother Lu Pheasant was even more fond of Zhang Yan, and even did not hesitate to marry Zhang Yan to her uncle and become the mother of the Han Dynasty!

Later, her father died of illness, and Zhang Yan also lived in the love of her grandmother and mother-in-law Lu Pheasant and her husband Liu Ying.

Even if her husband died of illness eight years ago, Zhang Yan never felt that there was anything that she needed to solve by herself - just having a mother-in-law/grandmother who could legally call herself 'me' was enough for Zhang Yan to stay away from all trivial things and stay in the deep palace to raise her own flowers with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, her mother-in-law died of illness, and Chang'an was in chaos; The nominal 'sons' have also been labeled as 'non-Hui Emperor's'; Zhang Yan, who has not changed her name to the queen mother and is still called the queen, has also been deliberately 'forgotten' by the court since then and has been arranged to live alone in the Weiyang Palace.

I heard that when the prime minister and the prince were discussing the candidate for the new emperor, Zhang Yan had already made full psychological preparations for the rest of her life - if she was lucky, she might be supported by the new emperor in a palace and spend her old age in peace.

It is not impossible to be unlucky, to be demoted out of the palace or even 'violently killed' in the palace.

But Zhang Yan never thought that the 'son', who had no blood relationship with him and had never been close to him since he was a child, would actually sit back on the throne with his ass!

What Zhang Yan expected even more was the current situation - I thought it would be best to spend my old age in peace, but suddenly became the queen mother?

Suddenly this series of changes occurred, Rao is Zhang Yan was born in a famous family, and the number of cultivation etiquette was quite qualified, and he couldn't help but be frightened.

If everything before was a boulder that overwhelmed Zhang Yan, then today's incident is almost the last straw that crushed the camel - Zhang Yan, I really don't know what to do...

Even if she knew in her heart that her identity as the queen mother was destined to have to do something at such a time, the only thing Zhang Yan could come up with was to find the prime minister and ask the minister's opinion - most of the problems that her husband encountered during his lifetime were dealt with in this way.

In the end, Zhang Yan tried all the 'perfect strategies' she came up with, but it came to naught because of the sentence 'the prime minister fainted at home' - Zhang Yan was completely stunned in place!

If it weren't for the hundreds of officials and ministers all kowtowing to the ground, I am afraid they would all be surprised to find that the queen mother of the Han Dynasty, who was in her prime, beautiful and beautiful, was only twenty years old, and she was like a lost child, and she was stunned in front of the courtiers and officials in a panic.

"Your Majesty is coming~"

A long shout finally solved Zhang Yan's predicament, and it also made the courtiers and officials who had been kneeling for a long time raise their heads slightly as if they had been amnestied, and then bowed in unison: "The ministers welcome Your Majesty..."

After a long while, after not hearing the expected sentence of 'flat body' that the confessor replied on behalf of the Son of Heaven, the ministers raised their heads in a little surprise, and saw that Liu Hong completely ignored the courtesy of the monarch and the ministers, walked down from the imperial chariot, and walked straight to Zhang Yan and knelt down.

"The sons see the queen mother, but the queen mother is happy and happy."

···

Quiet.

It's been a long silence.

Liu Hong's unscrupulous ignorance is equivalent to a slap in the face of the minister!

Since the beginning of the dynasty, there has never been a precedent for courtiers to pay homage to the emperor but not reply - even Emperor Gao Liu Bang talked with his courtiers in private, and basically obeyed the courtesy of the monarch and ministers on formal occasions.

Even Zhang Yan, who was angry because of Liu Hongdi's arrival, was taken aback by Liu Hong's actions...

——In Zhang Yan's impression, even when the first emperor was there, he had never treated the courtiers so harshly!

The benevolent Liu Ying is gentle most of the time, even to the Langguan Huangmen at the palace gate.

For a moment, Zhang Yan inexplicably had a hint of persuasion in her heart; But before the words could be spoken, the worry written on Zhang Yan's face had already been answered by Liu Hongdi.

"The son has been a little tired recently, and the queen mother is worried, the crime of this son..."

I saw Liu Hong respectfully take Zhang Yan's hand, and after Wen Yan confessed, he stepped aside and made a posture of 'mother first'.

Seeing this, Zhang Yan tried to persuade her, but the words in her heart were not told in the end.

"The emperor is fine, and the mourning family is at peace."

Nodding to Liu Hong, Zhang Yan came back to her senses, and her confidence was obviously more than that of Fang Cai.

"The mourning family is a woman, and it is inconvenient to meddle in the government affairs of the court."

"Since the emperor has not pardoned, the princes should kneel."

When the sound fell, as soon as the hundred officials subconsciously raised their heads, they saw that Liu Hong had already turned sideways, hunched his waist slightly, and all of them did not exist.

And Zhang Yan seems to have gradually shown the momentum that the queen mother should have after Liu Hong's support.

"Whew..."

Watching Zhang Yan calmly turn around, and walked into the Yongshou Hall under Liu Hong's respectful follow, after the courtiers and officials gave a low bow, they all sighed and adjusted their kneeling postures, as if they were mourning.

- If nothing else, only half a year later, the majesty of the Empress Dowager of Han will be displayed in front of the courtiers of the Han family again.

And the tough Son of Heaven also appeared again in the land of China and the homeland of China after a lapse of 16 years...

※※※※※※※※※※※

When Han Yan on the grassland was thinking about how to return to the Han land, the hundred officials kneeling outside the Yongshou Hall were worried about how to make Liu Hong angry, and the Empress Dowager Zhang Yan was savoring the deep meaning implied in Liu Hong's words, a private letter was finally sent from Chang'an City to the southeast of the Han Dynasty thousands of miles away.

Qidu, Linzi.

For most of the feudal era, the state of Qi was classified as 'southern' because of its location south of the Yellow River, but in reality, the state of Qi was largely located in the territory of later Shandong Province, not strictly 'southern'.

It's just that compared with later generations, the territory of the Han dynasty at this time was a large circle smaller - Changsha Kingdom, the southernmost country of the Han dynasty, was only in the northern part of Hunan in later generations.

Even if it is defined in terms of the territory of the Han dynasty at this time, the state of Qi is more like a place where the 'north and the south meet'.

As a coastal area, the state of Qi connects Yan and Zhao to the north; To the west, it borders the Liang State, and to the south, it is adjacent to the Chu State.

Coupled with the Langya State between Qi and Beihai, it has created the potential of Qi as a 'transportation hub'.

In the original history, Emperor Wen Liu Heng issued the "Xu Min Chi Shanze Order", and the Han dynasty commerce and handicraft industry ushered in an extremely beautiful period.

When the commercial tax code "Jinbu Law" was erased due to Empress Lu, and the tariff was exempted by the "Xu Minchi Shanze Order", the joke of later generations was truly reflected in the Han Dynasty: as long as you stand on the tuyere, even if it is a pig, you can fly!

——In that era, the merchant was the biggest outlet.

Private capital has become more and more prosperous in the context of the prosperity of private business, and the power of the Kwantung princes has also reaped many benefits from it.

Among them, the most benefited were Liu Bi, the king of Wu, who burned mountains to open mines and minted money with copper, and Liu Jianglu (lǘ), the king of Qi, who occupied the main transportation routes and enjoyed commercial dividends.

In the historical records, Liu Bi, the king of Wu, not only paid out of his own pocket to carry the taxes that the people of Wu should pay, but also raised a huge army with equipment on par with the central government and nearly 100,000 personnel!

And Liu Jianglu, the king of Qi, relied on the geographical advantages of Qi and took advantage of industry and commerce to 'earn 3,000 catties of gold and tens of thousands of dollars', thus achieving the de facto separation of the entire Qi land.

The vigorous development of private industry and commerce may have advantages and disadvantages for the country; However, the wealth of the princes' separatist forces is not good news for the central Chang'an government.

Of the seven vassal states that participated in the Wu and Chu Rebellion in history, the strongest military strength was Wu State, the most strategic geographical location was Zhao State, and the best pig teammate was Chu State.

As for the other four kingdoms, they are all princes and kings who mourn King Hui's lineage!

Jinan, Zichuan, Jiaoxi, and Jiaodong may not sound related; But as long as you open the Han Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Gao, it is not difficult to find that compared with now, there are Jinan County, Zichuan County, Jiaoxi County, and Jiaodong County in the territory of Qi State, which is a large circle.

Even the fief of Liu Ze, the king of Langya, appeared in the official documents decades ago under the name of 'Langya County of Qi State'.

From this alone, it can be seen that in the Jingdi Dynasty, the Qi Dynasty and the King of Qi have relied on industrial and commercial dividends to develop to the point of being so powerful - Wu Chu is not enough, it is better to count the princes' country, and it is not an exaggeration to say that these are the princes' of the Huiwang family!

Being able to rely on the territory of one county or even half a county to brazenly follow the call of Liu Bi, the king of Wu, to rebel is enough to prove what a stupid choice Emperor Wen Liu Heng made to abolish tariffs in the "Xu Min Chi Shanze Order".

In the more than 20 years of the Han Cube, and now that the war has subsided or even less than 20 years, the Qi State is not as rich as it was in its original history.

And Linzi, the capital of Qi, is far from developing into the prosperous Chang'an of Chang'an.

At this time, Linzi is at most better than Jinyang, the capital of the dynasty - in addition to the occasional high-gate mansion built by a prominent family or a little wealthy, Linzi, as the capital of a country, is also a piece of dwarf and dilapidated houses, which sets off the magnificence of the Qi palace in the east of the city.

As a fief given to his eldest son by Liu Bang, the Qi State initially had more than a dozen counties and more than 70 cities; Even in the original history, the seven counties of Chengyang, Jinan, Jibei, Jiaodong, Jiaoxi, Langya, and Zichuan were cut out, and Guangchuan, Hejian, Nanhai and other counties could still be retained.

With such a vast territory, the royal palace itself is also extraordinary-putting aside the scale of the taboo and deliberately controlled, in terms of momentum alone, even if the palace of Qi is not as good as Weiyang, there is no pressure to crush the palaces of most princes and kings in the world.

It was in this magnificent palace that Liu Fei, the king of Qi Mourning, and the harem concubines joined forces to give birth to three concubines and ten concubines, a total of thirteen sons.

The eldest son, Liu Xiang, has recently received the final conclusion of the coffin given by the court: flea lonely short fold mourning, Gongren short fold mourning; Qi Wang Xiang has long been unknown personnel, courteous and benevolent, and has not done anything; Mourn it.

The second son, Liu Xingju, the Marquis of Dongmu, was even more miserable - not only was he killed in the Taimiao by a thunderbolt from his grandfather Liu Bang, but even the feudal country was deposed, and the nickname was impossible to talk about.

Liu Zhang, the only remaining Marquis of Zhu Xu, was on guard at this time by Liu Xiang's son Liu Ze, protecting him and waiting for the official 'Edict of Permission to Succeed to the Throne' from the imperial court.

The remaining ten people were all missing, all gathered in a mansion not far from the palace of King Qi, and looked at the letter from Guanzhong with different faces.

"This..."

After the last person read it, with a horrified expression, he handed the donation letter with a monstrous event written on it back to the hand of the man sitting at the top.

The man, however, had recovered from his horror and looked around the hall with a deep gaze.

Even though he could barely maintain a relatively indifferent look, the man couldn't suppress his trembling fingers.

"What do you think of what the prime minister said?"

Saying this in an emotionless tone, the man withdrew his disobedient right hand under the case and looked at his younger brothers without a trace.

Among the ten people sitting in the hall, except for the oldest man in his early twenties, the greenness on the faces of the rest of the people has not faded.

At the end of the east seat, there was even a teenage boy sitting, staring at the floor in front of him in a daze - it was Liu Xiongqu, the youngest son of Liu Fei, who had just read the letter and handed it to the man!

The man sitting at the top is about to be revealed-Qi mourns the eldest son of Liu Feishu, the king of Hui: Liu Bajun.

With such a vast territory, the royal palace itself is also extraordinary-putting aside the scale of the taboo and deliberately controlled, in terms of momentum alone, even if the palace of Qi is not as good as Weiyang, there is no pressure to crush the palaces of most princes and kings in the world.
