Chapter 241: "Jokes"
The car drove out of the imperial city, driving on the widened road, at this time in the south of the imperial city, the former pieces of government offices, barracks, warehouses, mansions, have begun to be demolished, only to be rebuilt according to the planning drawings.
The roads, especially the four main roads, were demolished on both sides, both in terms of official residences and private houses, to make room for the repair of the royal road. Shuttling through, you can feel some chaos, but every grass and tree, every brick and tile, all reveal the breath of prosperity.
Liu Chengxun's Yongwang Mansion, especially close to the imperial city, is also within the scope of demolition, for this reason, Liu Chengyou also let the couple live in the palace, and Liu Chengyou was incompatible with the etiquette and stubborn.
On the car, Liu Chengxun leaned on the carriage, through the curtains, observing Kaifeng City under the spring night, for a long time, sighed: "Tokyo has changed a lot in the past two years!" ”
Princess Qian, Princess Yong, couldn't help but lean forward, snuggled in his arms, held his somewhat cold hand, conveyed warmth, and asked thoughtfully: "San Lang, what's wrong with you, since you left the palace, you have been worried?" ”
Listening to Qian's soft voice, he was in a trance, and noticed the concern on her beautiful face, Liu Chengxun smiled lightly, took her into his arms, and said, "Second brother, let's have a child quickly!" We need to work hard......"
As soon as these words fell, Qian's pretty face was slightly red and smiled shyly, but in his eyes, there was also a look of expectation. has been married for almost three years, and there has been nothing to do, and the pressure on the Qian family is also very high, of course, it is Liu Chengxun who loves her body and has been restrained.
Looking at Liu Chengxun's handsome face, he fell into contemplation again, but Qian didn't ask any more questions. She knew that Liu Chengxun had something in her heart, but she had no intention of confiding, and she had no intention of continuing to listen, just accompany him.
Early the next morning, Liu Chengxun woke up early, practiced swordsmanship in the courtyard for a while as usual, sweated, took a bath, and finished breakfast with the princess.
Before he could, Wang Taifu Li Song came to the door and was directly introduced into the study by him. Sitting down, Li Song immediately asked: "The king summoned me, what is the so-called matter?" ”
Liu Chengxun sat behind the bookcase, silent for a long time, and knew that things were not simple. Seeing this, Li Song couldn't help but get nervous.
After a long time, Liu Chengxun spoke: "Taifu is my teacher, and he has been my teacher for several years, so he can be said to be the person I trust the most!" ”
Hearing him say this, Li Song was even more surprised, thought about it, and guessed: "Could it be that at the palace banquet last night, what happened?" ”
Sighing, Liu Chengxun said: "A family banquet is normal, and you can enjoy it up and down." It's just that after the end of the banquet, the emperor got drunk and talked to me, which made me feel uneasy, and I still can't be at peace! ”
Obviously, the problem lies in the emperor's words, Li Song asked: "I don't know what Your Majesty said to the king?" ”
A trace of hesitation flashed on his face, Liu Chengxun took a deep breath, and said: "At that time, the second brother told me, let me have a good life and experience, the princes under his knees are still young, and the country is not solid, if he has a bad pool, let me ......"
Liu Chengxun didn't finish the next words, but Li Song could also guess a rough idea. The old face was not happy, but more serious, and asked Liu Chengxun urgently: "How did the king respond?" ”
"How can I? I am afraid to push back! The second brother is rich in spring and autumn, how could he have such an idea! Although the sons are young, they are enough to shelter them from growing up, and I, the imperial brother, can dare to have delusions! Liu Chengxun replied.
Hearing this, Li Song breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The king has made the right response!" ”
After saying that, Liu Chengxun also asked Li Song directly for advice: "Last night, the second brother was drunk, and I don't know if he was really drunk." Why do you have such thoughts? Taifu, are you saying this is testing me? ”
Li Song thought for a while and said to Liu Chengxun: "Maybe it's just that Your Majesty loves your brother and worries about the country, and you are drunk while you are happy; Maybe Your Majesty really has this intention, after all, the sons are young, and in the clan, only the king's bloodline is the closest, so the age is also appropriate; Perhaps, it is the temptation of His Majesty, as the king said, the Son of Heaven is at its peak in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it has only been twenty-four years since then, and his health has always been good, and now the country is also under control, and the world is gradually moving towards unification, how can this intention be born......"
Li Song's analysis is the same as not saying it, which makes Liu Chengxun even more worried. Seeing that his face was full of doubts, Li Song hesitated for a moment and asked in a deep voice: "Does the king have his ambitions?" ”
Meeting his gaze, Liu Chengxun shook his head with certainty: "Categorically not!" I have already told my second brother that I only want to be a virtuous king and do what I can for the Han Sheji and the people of the world, which is enough, and I dare not hope for anything else! ”
Subconsciously, Li Song breathed a sigh of relief, he was a little worried, Liu Chengxun had thoughts that he shouldn't have because of some of the emperor's "drunken words". The issue of succession to the throne involved has always been sensitive, and with the wisdom of today's son, how can he be so rash.
After thinking for a moment, Li Song said again: "No matter what, the king can be his drunken joke, everything is as it is, don't worry about it!" ”
Nodding, Liu Chengxun's brows stretched slightly, but he smiled bitterly: "I have been afraid of this second brother since I was a child, and after he succeeds to the throne, he will be the title of Tianxian and the power of the world, although he is not as strict as he was at the beginning, and he takes good care of me, but in my heart, I am actually more afraid of him......"
Being able to feel Liu Chengxun's doubts and troubles, Li Song solemnly said to him: "As a royal nobleman, the king of Han Yong, the only younger brother of His Majesty, under the honor, these doubts and burdens are also what you should bear!" ”
"Don't think about it for a while, just be calm!"
"Thank you for your teachings!"
Li Song looked at Liu Chengxun, he watched him grow up, and now, although he is only double ten, under his teaching, he has become a talent. With a gentle temperament, thoughtfulness, and childishness, it is no problem to be a praised virtuous king in the future.
calmed down, Liu Chengxun and Li Song talked about some situations in the court: "This time, in the name of the Jiaqing Festival, the second brother summoned all over the country to enter Beijing for festivals and defenses, and I think it will be another dismissal and resuming power!" Uncle Li Hongwei and brother-in-law Song Yanwu, I'm afraid that it will inevitably be transferred! ”
Li Song bowed his head and said: "There is a precedent to follow, this is a foreseeable thing. Since the end of the Southern Expedition, His Majesty has spent two years adjusting and restructuring the military and political affairs of the whole country. ”
"If the power is relieved of the festival in Beijing this time, then in the territory of the Han Dynasty, except for a few places, there will be no more feudal towns that combine military and political power!" Li Song said, with emotion on his face: "The disaster of the feudal town has caused the trouble of secession, and the ministers have gone through the Tang and Jin dynasties, and the two generations have suffered from it, and the dynasty has also died here." No matter how virtuous or foolish the emperors were, they all had military and political strategies to suppress and suppress, but they did not finish their work and suffered from it.
Today, but he can control the arrogant soldiers internally, calm the feudal towns outside, and eliminate the source of national turmoil in the past dynasties. Now that the scourge of the feudal towns has been solved, the Han Dynasty can concentrate its forces in the future, flatten the countries, and dominate the world! ”
On weekdays, Liu Chengxun also likes to listen to Li Song and talk about the chaos of the previous generation and the current politics. At this time, when I heard him say this, I became interested and began to talk freely with him......
When he said goodbye and left, Li Song's old face had more deep thoughts, although he was persuading Liu Chengxun to relax his mentality, but he himself was worried and still thinking about the "joke" of the Son of Heaven.
Today, the Han Dynasty is thriving and thriving, the imperial power is becoming more and more stable, the country is becoming stronger and stronger, and a bright future can be expected. However, the future is never predictable.
Regardless of whether Liu Chengyou has that mind or not, judging from the current situation of Dahan. If there is really any accident, and his sons are still young, then for the sake of Liu's country, the continuation of the Han Dynasty, and the stability of the country, rationally speaking, only Liu Chengxun is the most suitable to inherit Liu Chengyou's great cause.
In his heart, Li Song could think about these things clearly, but he didn't dare to tell Liu Chengxun everything. It is also for Liu Chengxun's sake, the emperor's mind is unpredictable, and the current situation can be considered in this way, but what about the future? When the world is unified, the great cause is overcome, the princes grow up, today's glory and favor are trusted, and he may become a poison that urges life one day, so we must be cautious......
