Chapter 0023: Liu's Family Banquet (3)
Although the current King of Liang is Liu Hong, who is only nine years old and is still the fifth brother of Liu Tai who is still in the country because of his young age, the nominal king is not the same as the actual control.
- Not to mention that Mrs. Liu has never even seen the city wall of Suiyang, Liu Hong is still the first time to see this cheap brother today, so why let him guard the gate for Liu Hong?
The Liang State must be garrisoned by an adult royal family, and it must be a Liu clan member who stands firmly on Liu Hong's side between Chen Ping and Zhou Bo.
And King Liang and Liu Hong have no second candidate; Those who meet Liu Hong's conditions are still only the acting king Liu Heng.
But then again, even if Liu Hong can try his best to seize the control of the Liang State under Chen Ping and Zhou Bo's strict defense, Liu Heng may not be willing to be the king of Liang.
——In the original history, after Empress Lu successively forced to kill three kings surnamed Zhao surnamed Liu, I don't know whether it was out of wanting to kill the fourth or to calm down public opinion, so he sent officials to Pingcheng, the capital of Daidu, to pass the edict: transfer Wang Heng to King Zhao.
Liu Heng immediately fell into panic when he got the news, he didn't think about tea and dinner, and finally succeeded in falling ill before the edict servant came to Daidi; In the end, by expressing his patriotic feelings to Empress Lü and his determination to defend the frontier for the country, he escaped the tragic fate of becoming the fourth king of Zhao of the Liu clan in the Western Han Dynasty (1).
Such an extremely cautious person is unlikely to trust Liu Hong and promise Liu Hong to go to Liang to be the pillar of the country.
But as a traverser, Liu Hong knows very well that there may be many people who can make Liu Heng change his mind in history, but at this point in time there is only one - Liu Heng's mother, Empress Dowager Bo!
In the original history, even if Liu Heng was the emperor, when his mother Bo was sick and bedridden, he personally served the old man's daily life, and never left the old queen mother's side day and night until she recovered.
In this era when 'tasting the decoction' can become a model of filial piety, Liu Heng can undoubtedly be regarded as the most filial person; what is even more admirable is that Liu Heng's filial piety is completely out of his heart, and there is no element of acting!
It was also after Liu Heng set an example and set an example for the people of the world that the political program of the Han family of 'ruling the world with filial piety' gradually fell from theory to reality, and for more than 400 years in the Han Dynasty, it was a national policy that could not be shaken.
Even nearly 2,000 years later, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs and Shenzhou Lu sank, the edicts of the Kangxi Yongzheng people still mentioned 'filial piety first' from time to time, and the words 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX filial piety XXX emperor' would inevitably appear in the more than 20 characters of the epithet after his death (2).
It can be said that Liu Heng is the first king in Chinese history to explicitly order 'filial piety' as a national policy, and he is also the injector of the 'filial piety' element in the Han gene.
Therefore, Liu Hong planned to start from the Empress Dowager Bo to 'force' Liu Heng to move the Liang Kingdom.
- Naturally, it's not kidnapping or the like, but ...
Just as Liu Hong was secretly thinking about it, Liu Heng bowed down and held the wine bottle, and came to Liu Hong with two young sons who also contained sweet wine in the bottle.
"Your Majesty is not guilty, and the minister has nothing to repay, but worships the statue of Taiyi God day and night, and prays for your Majesty to live forever and without borders..."
At this point, Liu Heng also saw that Liu Hong had no intention of rectifying him.
Or rather, not yet.
But there is no free lunch in the world, Liu Heng understands very well that Liu Hong just let go of himself who 'almost ascended the throne' so lightly, and his plan must not be small.
I saw Liu Hong holding up the wine bottle with a light smile and said, "Uncle Wang doesn't have to be too formal, this family banquet is also~"
Saying that, he took the opportunity to stretch out his evil hands again and rubbed the younger Xiao Zhengtai beside Liu Heng fiercely: "Ah Wu has also grown up~ He has become a big husband~"
He withdrew his hand and raised his head, only to see that Liu Heng's eyes were full of horror!
Even the rest of the clan relatives who were eating with their heads bored also cast complicated glances at Liu Hong...
After being stunned for a moment, Liu Hong, who reacted, coughed lightly twice, and said in the direction near him on the right: "Ah Wu, come here." ”
Seeing a little Zhengtai who was also carved in pink and jade, he got up, and Confucianism said: "No", and came to Liu Hong's side cautiously.
Liu Hong gently lifted Xiao Zhengtai's shoulder, pushed him in front of Liu Heng, and said with a light smile: "My brother Liu Wu has the same name as Uncle Wang's youngest son; Why didn't Uncle Wang leave his young son in Chang'an to be my brother's companion? ”
As he spoke, Liu Hong paid attention to the reactions of everyone in the hall with concern.
If it really makes people spread the news that 'the county official is a good Luan Tong', then Liu Hong can't be washed by jumping into the Yellow River!
Seeing that everyone in the hall lowered their heads as if they suddenly realized and continued to destroy the food in front of them, Liu Hongcai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Heng did not hesitate when he heard this, and said with a pale face as usual: "Your Majesty is a blessing..."
The promise was neat, which made Liu Hong secretly surprised-Liu Hong just said it casually, just to clarify the misunderstanding, it didn't matter if Liu Heng agreed or not.
The younger brother Liu Wu is only seven years old, no matter how carefully Liu Hong cultivates him, he will only be a prince of a place in the future, and there is no need to bring Liu Heng's youngest son, King Liang Xiao in history, to be a scholar for him.
As everyone knows, it was Liu Hong's move that made Liu Heng's heart that had been hanging high for several days settle down - in Liu Heng's opinion, Liu Hong clearly wanted to keep the proton in Beijing!
This shows that although Liu Hong is not at ease with him, he has no intention of dealing with him immediately.
This is Liu Heng's villain's heart and the belly of a gentleman; Even if Liu Hong really wanted to control Liu Heng, he would not use the ancient means of 'proton'.
What's more, even if you really want to deduct the proton, then Liu Hong should keep it, it should be the crown prince Liu Qi!
Liu Hong didn't think too much, and after a drink with Liu Heng, he took the opportunity to sit Liu Heng beside him, and took Liu Heng's hand and pulled up the routine.
In the eyes of the rest of the palace, the meaning of this scene became subtle - even the person who once tried to snatch the throne, His Majesty was so 'merciful'?
After that, if we commit some 'petty' sin...
Especially Liu Zhang, who was at the end of the seat, looked at this scene, his dim eyes couldn't help but brighten up again, and the devil's demagogic voice reappeared in his mind: The county official is young, and Brother Qi is the eldest of the grandsons of Gaozu, or he may try to stay in Chang'an for a long time, and do Zhou Gong Yiyin...
And all of this was seen by Liu Hong, who was the leader.
In other words, all this was deliberately done by Liu Hong.
- In fact, the biggest threat to Liu Hong has never been Chen Ping and Zhou Bo.
It's the Liu clan!
For officers and non-commissioned officers, Liu Hong can give money; Courtier officials, Liu Hong can be allowed to hold official positions; Even if it is Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, Liu Hong can temporarily delegate power and make clay statues for a period of time.
No matter what, these people have no possibility of seizing the throne and becoming emperor.
But now all the people sitting in the hall are surnamed Liu!
The blood of Emperor Gaozu flowing in his body alone was enough to make any of them theoretically have the possibility of sitting on the throne!
And for Liu Hong, who is almost in a pot, unless he takes out the throne as a bargaining chip, these 'second generations of kings' and even the first generation of kings who are rich in an entire princely kingdom cannot be bought and won over by him no matter what.
The only way is to use this 'benevolent' appearance to calm them down and wait for the future.
Looking at the relaxed or excited faces of the relatives in the palace, the thread that had been tight in Liu Hong's heart was slightly loosened - it was not until this moment that Liu Hong temporarily sat on the throne.
"I don't know how many people here will survive next year..."
The weakness of the emperor will inevitably cause some people to think about it.
There will only be two ends for such a person: either he will ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Supreme and command the world; Or 'die young', go underground to see Liu Bang!

PS: 1. Lv Hou moved the king Liu Heng as the king of Zhao, Liu Heng was frightened, and he did not go to Chang'an in order to hold on to his ill life, and said: I am willing to stick to the side wall with my remnant body, and refuse the position of King Zhao, so Lv Hou gave up. The incident is quoted from "Historical Records: Empress Dowager Lü Benji".
2. This, the name of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty... (Shakes head and supports forehead)
I think so, after the death of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the courtiers may hold this dictionary, and then pick out all the words that are absolutely positive and describe the emperor, exclude the words used by the previous emperors, and then vote on the top fifteen words in the degree of praise among the remaining words; Then connect these fifteen words together, and add the word 'filial piety' in the middle of the last few words, somewhere that does not make sense, and follow the word 'emperor' at the end. ——The standard name of the Qing Emperor has been released...
Jokes, just complain; Like Liu Heng in the book, the temple number + nickname in history, plus a 'Han' word, is only seven words - Emperor Xiaowen of Emperor Taizong of the Han Dynasty.
The more the emperor goes on, the more shameless he becomes, and the courtiers don't know where to stop, don't you think it's low...
