The Young Prince Chapter 58 King Zhao 'Sacrifices the Horse'

In this way, above the court, only Dou Ying was left stunned on the spot, wanting to suppress the arrogance of Chao Mistake above the court. But he didn't want the Son of Heaven to make a mistake in public, Dou Ying was hung on the spot, and he lost face in the court, how could he not be angry.

Some time ago, because of the words of the Son of Heaven to pass on the throne of King Liang, Dou Ying stepped forward to stop him, so that his aunt Empress Dowager Dou still looks at him coldly, and therefore in addition to his palace registration.

If today's son protects Chao Wrong in public, the more Dou Ying thinks about it, the more angry he becomes, and he goes down to the court, and walks out of the hall in despair.

Dou Ying was originally a dignified person, but in the eyes of Liu Rong who followed him, Dou Ying's state at this time was a bit like an old man in his last years......

At this moment, Dou Ying was not paying attention, did not pay attention to the steps outside the hall, and stepped on the air.

At this time, Liu Rong, who was following Dou Ying, hurriedly stepped forward to support Dou Ying, and Dou Ying came back to his senses and bowed to Liu Rong and said, "The minister also wants to thank His Highness for saving his life."

Liu Rong hurriedly said: "It's just a gesture, how can Zhan Shi be said to be a life-saving grace, I see that Zhan Shi is a little absent-minded from the palace, but he is still worried about today's court affairs?" ”。

Seeing Liu Rong ask like this, Dou Ying had to lament: "Today's ministers are losing face in the palace, losing face......

Seeing this, Liu Rong had to comfort him: "Zhan Shi actually doesn't have to be sad, today's court, Your Majesty is just talking about things, what Dr. Chao said, but it is also a good policy, Your Majesty does not intend to suppress Zhan Shi."

Moreover, I was also present at the family banquet in the palace on New Year's Day, Zhan Shi's loyalty to His Majesty can be seen by the sun and the moon, and His Majesty will never abandon such a loyal person because of this, and please feel relieved. ”

In this way, Liu Rong helped Dou Ying down the steps, and when he was about to leave by car, Liu Rong said again: "I hope that Zhan Shi will not take this matter to heart, Your Majesty will definitely have a time to reuse Zhan Shi."

In this way, watching Dou Ying's carriage leave, Liu Rong left.

For some reason, Liu Rong has always had a good impression of Dou Ying, although this person does not know power. But he is also capable, otherwise in the pacification of the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu, Liu Rong's father would not have ordered the general to be stationed in Xingyang.

And among the relatives, there are few people who are greedy for money, when they are stationed in Xingyang, the Son of Heaven gives them a thousand gold, and he uses all of them to recruit chivalry and reward meritorious soldiers.

His loyalty to the Son of Heaven is truly touching. Dare to stop the Son of Heaven Liu Qi from saying the words of King Liang in front of the Empress Dowager Dou.

And after he became the wife of 'Liu Rong', he definitely did his best for 'Liu Rong', considered everything for him, and when the Son of Heaven wanted to abolish the prince, he also tried his best to stop it.

Later, due to the Gaomiao incident, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, abolished the crown prince, and the king of Linjiang 'Liu Rong' was imprisoned in Tingwei's prison, and no one dared to visit.

Thinking of this, Liu Rong also had the heart to pull it onto his carriage.

At this time, in the Xuanshu Palace, Chao Cuo had not yet left, and was discussing the affairs of Zhao with Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven.

Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, asked: "What Chao Qing said today, ordered Zhao Guo to send his war horse to the imperial court, what if he is unwilling?" ”。

"Your Majesty, according to the Imperial History Office sent by the minister, Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, has secretly colluded with the Xiongnu over the years. Concealing that the imperial court sent a large number of arrows and ordnance to the Xiongnu every year, and the Xiongnu would give back some war horses to King Zhao, which is also the reason why there are so many war horses in Zhao today.

If the king of Zhao does not hand it over, then the court will have sufficient reasons to show the world that the king of Zhao has the heart of not being subordinate.

King Zhao must know that with the strength of one country, how can he confront the imperial court, and he must have to obey it."

When Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, heard this, he said angrily: "I only thought that King Zhao was a little covetous, but I never thought that he would dare to collude with the Huns, and he really deserved to die."

Chao Cuo said again: "Your Majesty, the minister's remarks about Ma Zheng are also prepared for the reduction of the domain. When Your Majesty succeeds in cutting down the feudal domain, these princes and kings who are not subordinate will definitely be captured by Your Majesty before the high temple and punished."

In this way, just a few days later, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, personally sent Wang Yan to Zhao to deliver the edict.

Before leaving, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, said that Wang Yan had summoned him, and after a while, he was ordered to leave.

In the past, the Son of Heaven sent Wang Yan to the vassal states to preach the edict, but the Son of Heaven never had an entrustment, so that Wang Yan did not know what the Son of Heaven meant. After listening to the entrustment of Liu Qizhi, the son of heaven, Wang Yan led people to Zhao Di.

After more than ten days of travel, Wang Yan and his entourage finally arrived in Handan, the capital of Zhao State. After the waiter went to the king of Zhao, Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, immediately led the ministers of Zhao to receive the edict of the Son of Heaven outside the city.

Wang Yan opened the edict and read: "The emperor of the Han Dynasty summoned his life, and Liu Liu, the king of Zhao, received the edict."

Liu Sui immediately knelt down and said: "The minister receives the edict."

"I just heard someone say today that the king of Zhao is so concerned about the imperial court, and actually raised nearly 100,000 war horses for the imperial court in the horse house of Zhao State, so I sent an envoy to Zhao State to pass on my summons, so that King Zhao will register the horses raised by the imperial court and send them to the capital in the near future."

Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, was a little stunned when he heard this, and at this time, Wang Yan opened an edict again, and said: "King Zhao's move, I am very relieved, if all the kings of the world are like King Zhao, everything is considered and worried by the court." The world must be safe, Gu Zhen specially rewarded King Zhao with ten thousand gold, silk thousands of horses, and then passed on the merits of King Zhao to the kings of the world, in order to show the merits of King Zhao."

The words of the two edicts really made Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, completely stupid on the spot, and Wang Yan leaned forward and said: "King, before Your Majesty leaves, you will specially ask your subordinates to personally send Your Majesty's reward to King Zhao." Please accept the edict and receive the reward immediately."

Only then did King Zhao come back to his senses and said, "How can the war horse of my Zhao Kingdom be the object of this king's sacrifice to the court, is there a misunderstanding between Your Majesty!?" ”。

"The king doesn't know, at this time, everyone in the court knows that King Zhao raises nearly 100,000 war horses for His Majesty, how can it be wrong. However, some people said that King Zhao's horse breeding was definitely not to sacrifice to the imperial court."

Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "This is a great goodness, the horse of my Zhao land is the king to fill the armament of Zhao State, in case of the use of the Huns."

But Wang Yan replied: "King Zhao is not in a hurry, the person who said this also said that the army of Zhao is only 30,000, how can King Zhao want so many war horses." If this horse hadn't been for King Zhao's dedication to His Majesty, it would definitely be for rebellion! ”。

As soon as these words came out, King Zhao immediately sat down on the ground, and King Liu Sui of Zhao did have the heart of arrogance, but this was definitely not the time to rebel.

In the end, I had to hold back the grief in my heart, but I still had a forced smile on my face, and said: "This is indeed the horse of His Majesty who is presented by this king, and I have few people in Zhao Country, how can I use so many war horses." This Wang Shicai is just joking, just joking".

He also said: "Zhao Di has a lot of horses at this time, and it will take a few days to place the horses and then send them to Chang'an, can the envoy wait?" ”。

Wang Yan hurriedly said: "This is natural, and I hope that the king can prepare as soon as possible."

After arranging Wang Yan and his entourage to rest in the pavilion, Liu Sui, the king of Zhao, immediately found two henchmen and said: "I don't want the court to know about the king's horse breeding, so I ordered someone to come and ask for it, which is really infuriating to the king."

But he saw a humanitarian: "If the king doesn't contact the Huns, at this time with the power of thunder, what about the opposite?" ”。

After pacing for a while, Liu Sui said, "It seems that it can only be like this."

So Liu Sui immediately sent someone to the court of the Xiongnu to meet the military minister Shan Yu, and after the military minister Shan Yu learned the meaning of the king of Zhao from the envoy of the Zhao State, he smiled and said: "Just with your Zhao king's men and horses, you want to defeat the emperor of the Han Dynasty, it is simply wishful thinking."

Yuluo expelled the envoy of the king of Zhao from the court of the Xiongnu.

When he turned back to Zhao and informed Queen Zhao of Shan Yu's words, King Zhao was of course even more angry, and in the end, he had to tearfully let Wang Yan and his party send all the war horses raised by more than ten years of hard work to the Chang'an Royal Horse Farm......

Looking at the horse team that had left Zhao for dozens of miles, King Zhao almost fainted on the spot.

With so many horses going to Chang'an, Wang Yan naturally ordered someone to report to the Chang'an Palace early.

The Son of Heaven immediately issued an edict and ordered the county guards along the way to guide the way. After nearly 20 days of work, the horses were finally sent to the Royal Racecourse.
