Since Wang Fu is dead, it goes without saying that Si Lixiao Yang Qiu displayed his crimes during his life and made them public.

It is worth mentioning that the head of the eunuchs, the Great Changqiu Cao Festival, who was originally on the same front as Wang Fu, even displayed dozens of Wang Fu's crimes and presented them to the emperor.

And among these dozens of crimes, the first one is quite embarrassing, "bribing witches and slandering the prince." ”

This really made Liu Bian, who had been planning for a long time, a little at a loss, but no matter what, since Cao Jie was willing to uphold justice for himself, Liu Bian was naturally willing to accept it.

In the end, the emperor still cares about his only son. So he made Wang Fu's guilt public to the officials, and after symbolically consulting the ministers, he took the initiative to issue an order and ordered Shi Ziyi to enter the palace with the prince Liu Wei.

The ministers naturally have no opinion, this time to kill Wang Fu, this seemingly mediocre emperor gave them a lot of confidence. In the final analysis, the emperor is determined not to care whether Wang Fu is alive or dead, otherwise, if the emperor is partial, what can he do with Wang Fu even if he has ten yang balls? Although the emperor didn't say it, everyone's hearts were clear.

As for welcoming the prince back to the palace, it is a great thing for the community! After all, the emperor is not young, only this one heir, whether he will establish a prince in the future or not, he will always have to be raised by his side and taken care of, and he can't just because the proposer is Cao Jie, so he has to speak out against it, right? In the end, the secretary of state is the minister, in the end, he is loyal to the Han family, he takes the overall situation into account, and he is not a keyboard warrior!

It is precisely because of the occurrence of these great things that in the half year from the beginning of the year to the middle of the second year of Guanghe, the entire Han Dynasty simply showed a rare harmony between monarchs and ministers, and a thriving appearance.

As for Hongdu Gate Learning, Xidi sells officials, and patience is also. Isn't he still relied on by the emperor? And who is a Hongdu student, who can be compared with the person who buys (harmonious) officials? In this case, what is the big deal about this huge palace, a few more Lang officials, and Shangshu?

So a lot of things unfolded naturally.

On May 1 of the same year, the prince Liu Wei was recalled to the palace, and the white deer appeared in the north of the mountain, thinking that it was auspicious, and the Son of Heaven was overjoyed and amnesty the world.

There is one thing worth mentioning here, Duan Ying'a, the Taiwei of the time, attached to Wang Fu, impeached for Yangqiu, was arrested and imprisoned for being implicated in Wang Fu's crimes, and then he was humiliated by the jailer and committed suicide in prison on the first day of the amnesty, that is, on the evening of April 31, when the people sighed. Later, there was a poem that said: "Young Zhuang is a masterpiece, and the twilight is like a rat bear." So far, he is sad and amnesty in prison. Duan Ying never thought that two thousand years later, he would appear in the primary school Chinese textbook with Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, reading and reciting for students all over the world.

On May 15 of the same year, Cao Jie was vacant due to the death of Wang Fu, and Shi Ziyi was specially selected as the middle attendant, living in the North Palace for a long time, serving the prince.

The emperor took Shi Zifei as a eunuch, and he was not allowed, worshiped as Langzhong, and was exempted from official money.

On the twenty-fifth day of May, Shi Ziyi raised himself as a eunuch, raised the small yellow gate, and begged to live in the North Palace for a long time and serve the prince.

The emperor was loyal to Shi Ziyi, worshiped him as a regular servant, and exempted him from official money. When the prince heard this, he wept incessantly and did not eat for three days.

Although Shi Ziyi and Liu Wei's operations were out of each other's true feelings, they also really blinded the eyes of the ministers and ministers.

What a righteous man who believes in the Faith does not hesitate to mutilate his body in order to serve the prince, and as a prince, instead of taking his own people as a servant, he goes on a hunger strike to thank his crippled body. The scholars couldn't help but ask themselves, would they still hate such a person as a regular servant? Such a person is the king, will he still be sad?

Cao Jie even played to commend the prince Liu Wei, who rarely had prestige, was pure and benevolent, and persuaded the prince to be established.

Although the ministers of the ministers were also extremely praised for Liu Bian's behavior, they still maintained a high degree of calm in the end about the establishment of the crown prince, headed by Yang Ci, Liu Kuan and other old ministers of the Han Dynasty, and brought Shangshutai and all Shangshu to jointly play and advise the emperor that Liu Bian was not a concubine and could not be established.

The emperor thought so, and on the grounds that the prince was young, he rejected Cao Jie's performance on the spot, and Cao Jie even claimed that he did not dare to entangle with this matter.

Cao Jie's large-scale operation made Liu Wei very devastated. Liu Biao thought that he had taken the lead step by step and arranged it properly, but he didn't want Cao Jie to disrupt his rhythm again and again, and even directly led to Shi Ziyi's self-palace, which made him difficult to accept, although Liu Biao never said it to Shi Ziyi, but in his heart he wanted to give Shi Ziyi a family business, so that he could have a proper heir, inherit the incense, and send the old man to the end, but this knife went down, and these ideas eventually became a mirror, and it was no longer possible.

There is also Cao Jie's suggestion that the emperor establish a prince, this is the most sensitive topic of the royal family, and it is also the topic that can stimulate the nerves of the emperor and the ministers the most. I don't know if it's a pit. Only an honest person like Shi Ziyi would think that Cao Jie really supported him and thought about everything for himself.

Although Liu Wei is only a little child less than four years old in this life, he is also a social elite who has been crawling in the society of later generations for nearly ten years, coupled with the blessing of countless palace fighting dramas and power plots in later generations, how can he be like Shi Ziyi, a political idiot, who was cheated and put aside to say that others are good.

However, the matter has come to this point, he lost the first move, and he was restrained in his steps, but he couldn't help but calm down Liu Wei.

Liu Wei decided to meet Cao Jie for a while, and in the name of his mother He Guiren, he sent Xiao Huangmen to summon Cao Jie into Yong'an Palace to speak.

"Your Highness summoned me?" Cao Jie had already expected such a day, but he didn't want to be in such a straightforward way, so he couldn't help laughing.

"His Royal Highness summoned Da Changqiu to Yong'an Palace to speak." The little yellow door said so.

"Good." Cao Jie put down the teacup in his hand and stood up: "Let's go." ”

Yong'an Palace is on the northeast side of Luoyang Palace, which is a forbidden area, Cao Jie went to Yong'an Palace at the residence of the North Palace, but a stick of incense has already arrived, I don't want Liu Wei to stand under the palace gate and wave to himself: "Gonggong Cao." ”

Cao Jie was so confused by this call that there was no one around, and seeing that Liu Wei was indeed calling himself, he could only step forward and bow down: "Your Royal Highness is calling the old minister." ”

"No need to be polite, come into the temple and speak." Liu Wei was noncommittal, stepped forward and pulled Cao Jie's belt, and walked to the hall.

Cao Jie is tall, although Liu Wei is taller than his peers, he can't reach Cao Jie's arm when he raises his arm, and seeing that his belt is at the right height, he simply makes this move. Cao Jie was caught off guard and quite surprised, so he hurriedly took Liu Bian's hand and followed him into the palace.

As soon as he entered the hall, Liu Wei broke free from Cao Jie's big hand, ran forward a few steps, took a long knife higher than him from the front of the case, held it in front of Cao Jie with both hands, and said with a smile: "Cao Gong knows what this is." ”

Although Cao Jie was surprised, he was not afraid, and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness, this thing is called the Ring Head Knife." ”

"So this is the Ring Head Knife." Liu Wei seemed to be talking to himself: "Then Cao Gong knows, where did I get this thing?" ”

Cao Jie still smiled kindly: "Since it is the treasure of His Royal Highness, the old minister really doesn't know where it came from." ”

"Cao Gong should know." Liu Wei sighed: "This knife is the thing of Si Li's school captain Yang Qiuyang Fangzheng, Wang Fu and Wang Meng are all the heads of this knife owl." ”

Cao Jie couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this: "Your Highness summoned the old minister to come, what is the so-called matter?" ”

Since Liu Bian's seclusion in the northern mountains, Cao Jie secretly sent people to spy on Shi Ziyi and Liu Bian, at first just to monitor whether there were any officials of the previous dynasty walking around here. Later, he felt more and more that Liu Wei was different, and he became more and more concerned with his surveillance.

Although Cao Jie has long known that the child in front of him who is less than four years old is far from being comparable to any child in the world, not his identity, but his wisdom, foresight, cleverness, resourcefulness, and courage, these words to describe the world's heroes seem to be able to be used on the child in front of him, but he is a child after all, Cao Jie understands, but he can't believe it, and he can't believe it.

"Gong Cao, there are a lot of your henchmen at the foot of Beibi Mountain, but you want to assassinate me?" Liu Wei looked into Cao Jie's eyes and said word by word.

When Cao Jie first heard this, he was stunned. Although he knew that his secret whistle would be noticed sooner or later, it was hard for him to believe that the little boy in front of him could say such a sonorous word so calmly, and a trace of fear arose in his heart, so that he did not dare to answer.

Liu Wei continued to ask: "Gong Cao, there are only you and me here, I only ask you, will you kill me?" After that, he handed the ring-headed knife to Cao Jie: "If you kill me at this time, you only need to shout to arrest the assassin when you get out of the palace, and with your identity as Da Changqiu, naturally no one dares to suspect you." ”

Cao Jie subconsciously took the long knife, and was speechless for a while. To make a knife or not to go to the knife, these few seconds of thinking seem like centuries have passed. And Liu Wei's resolute eyes seemed to have penetrated his heart, making people shudder.

"Cao Gong!" Liu Wei increased his voice and spoke repeatedly.

Cao Jie's heart was in turmoil, countless thoughts flashed in his mind, and then his eyes were closed, and he finally abandoned the knife and knelt on the ground, and bowed to him: "The old minister has received the emperor's grace, how dare he do such a rebellious and unfilial thing." ”

Liu Wei bent down to pick up the long knife, pulled the long knife out of the scabbard with difficulty, and went around to Cao Jie's side, the blade was against the back of Cao Jie's neck, and said calmly: "Cao Gong, do you dare to swear." ”

Cao Jie closed his eyes and was silent, at this moment, he felt as if he was not afraid of death, but he was old and decrepit for a child in a few words, and he couldn't let go of it after all. After a long time, he sighed and said: "The old minister Cao Jie swears here, if you want to mistreat Your Highness, you will definitely let my Cao family die under ten thousand arrows." ”

Liu Wei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, threw away his long sword, picked up Cao Jie and apologized: "The kid has no form, I hope Cao Gong will forgive me." ”

Cao Jie's eyes were dilated, as if he had experienced the most strange and humiliating time in his life, and now he finally convinced himself that the boy in front of him, who was less than four years old, was not a human, but a god. Cao Jiewu was stunned, but he heard Liu Wei shouting loudly: "Uncle, go ahead, tell Shi Gong, don't remember." ”

I saw a young and strong young man flashing out behind the door of the palace, wearing a tiger armor, it was Wu Kuang, seeing that he gave up his hand and promised, he went to hold the sword.

Cao Jie was shocked, and he really forgot to turn around.

"Cao Gong, don't blame, the kid is in a panic with you." Liu Wei smiled lightly.

Cao Jie didn't know where he was, if Fang Cai really wanted to do wrong, even if he killed Liu Wei, his head would no longer be there. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel Ling Ran in my heart: "Your Royal Highness is pure and benevolent, thank you." ”

"Cao Gong said and laughed, what kind of pure kindness and benevolence am I, Shi Gong said that I am scheming, if you want to thank you, thank yourself for being loyal." Liu argued.

Cao Jie nodded again and again.

Liu Wei found a futon and knelt down, motioned for Cao Jie to sit down together, and then asked: "Cao Gong, you and I are now relieved of our past suspicions, and I am very puzzled by some things. ”

Cao Jie gave his hands again and again: "The old minister should know everything." ”
