In the end, Liu Che still agreed to Chu Da's resignation application.

It rained lightly for three days in a row.

The air in Chang'an City is filled with the smell of blood and earth.

After the rain stopped, Mrs. Dou still didn't control his behavior.

Regardless of it, he rushed to the palace to find Liu Che to intercede.

Liu Che knelt down under His Royal Highness when he saw his aunt, who had been invincible in the past, and he felt a burst of emotion in his heart.

If it weren't for the great help of Mrs. Dou back then, it would be two to say whether Liu Che would be able to sit in his current position.

"Auntie, why are you here, Zhang Tang has already found out that his aunt is not involved in this matter.

All things are sins committed by the queen and the people around her, aunt, you are already old, so let's get up and go home to recuperate. ”

Mrs. Dou is no longer as strong as before, and after making up her mind to be with Dong Yan before, Liu Yan made up her mind to only seek money and not power.

But now it's her daughter, locked in that claustrophobic deep palace, and she doesn't know what will happen.

Everyone has a love for licking calves.

Even an old mother who is carried away by desire will often worry about whether her children are doing well.

"Your Majesty has really tormented me.

My daughter has caused His Majesty so much trouble, how dare I, as a mother, hide at home.

I just want to say sorry to Your Majesty on this trip, and I hope that Your Majesty can remember Gillian about her love for decades. ”

Mrs. Dou also knows that Liu Che has no love for Chen Ajiao now.

But at least the love between sister and brother still exists, and Chen Ajiao is a few years older than Liu Che.

When he was young, Liu Che did not have any playmates of the right age in the palace, and Emperor Xiaojing had already set the crown prince at that time.

Everyone gathered around the crown prince Liu Rong, and there were people who noticed the feelings of Liu Che, the tenth son of the emperor.

's childhood playmate was only Chen Ajiao.

Otherwise, after Li Ji rejected Liu Concubine's request for marriage, Liu Concubines would not immediately find Liu Che, who is two years younger than Chen Ajiao.

The main reason is that Chen Ajiao really got along with Liu Che when she was young.

No matter how deep Wang Huan's mind is, at that time it was far less powerful than Liu Yan's power.

There have been so many eldest princesses throughout the ages, but only Concubine Liu can use her mother's surname as a title.

It can be seen how much Dou Yifang loves Liu Yan.

Everyone knows that when Dou Yifang was alive, whoever she liked was the one who could go straight to the clouds.

The same is true for Liu Yan.

After the death of King Wu of Liang, in Chang'an, it was the Empress Dowager Dou who ranked first, then Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty ranked second, and the third was the current Empress Dowager Dou and the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty Liu Concubine of the previous generation.

Thinking about the fact that there are so many princesses, how many can leave their names?

And now, such a woman is still Liu Che's elder, but she gave up her dignity as Her Royal Highness the eldest princess because of love, or twice.

"Auntie, get up, don't worry.

What the queen has done is too out of line, and I must abolish her throne and give an explanation to the people of the world.

I hope that my aunt will not misunderstand this afterwards, although the queen has been abolished, her living standard will be the same as before, and she will not be downgraded.

I promised my aunt that as long as I sat in this position for a day, I would not let Gillian be wronged in terms of use. ”

Mrs. Dou got Liu Che's accurate answer, and he had a bottom in his heart.

She understands that it is certain that she will be abolished, and as long as people are alive, there will be a chance to make a comeback.

"In that case, I would like to thank Your Majesty for your kindness to Gillian today.

Because I am not in good health because of my old age, I will not bother Your Majesty. ”

Saying that, Mrs. Dou reluctantly stood up and began to walk out of the hall step by step.

Liu Che immediately gave the eunuch beside him a look, and the eunuch immediately stepped forward to support the princess Dou.

It didn't take long.

A abolished edict was promulgated by the Imperial Doctor's Mansion, announcing that Chen Ajiao was abolished all over the world and could only live in Changmen Palace in the future.

After Liu Che made his will, he immediately sent a large number of craftsmen to repair the Changmen Palace.

It is estimated that he also thought of the promise he made when he was a child, and ordered to take out 10,000 catties of gold from the warehouse of Shaofu, and ordered people to grind it into powder.

When Nagato Palace was renovated, all the gold dust was applied to the walls of Nagato Palace.

In addition, 500 palace guards were sent to guard Nagato Palace.

Originally, there were still people who wanted to fall into the well, but seeing Liu Che doing this, the Changmen Palace became a forbidden place, and no one dared to approach that palace.

What Zhang Yuan wanted to do was only approved by a letter.

Because Zhang Yuan didn't ask for any official position, he just asked to go into battle with the army to kill the enemy, for such a person, Liu Che would never refuse.

In the war era, who would organize a person to go to the battlefield?

There are a lot of troublesome things at the moment, Zhang Yuan just happened to be a troublemaker in Liu Che's eyes, and now Zhang Yuan asked to go to the battlefield, Liu Che almost didn't applaud and celebrate.

As for the matter of the master's father, Liu Che didn't take it to heart.

Wei Qing, Zhang Yuan, Gong and Sun He jointly played, and what the master father Yan said in the Pingyang Hou Mansion that day was all true, and there were not only Zhang Yuan and a few of them who heard it.

Can the Lord Father still deny it?

If you can't, you can only obediently obey.

The news after Liu Che's abolition was not much different from the time when the Pingyang Hou Mansion opened the mourning hall for everyone to worship.

Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing went to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion to worship as soon as possible.

Liu Cheren did not come, but he also asked the people in the palace to send a eulogy, and then granted the request of the Pingyang Marquis Mansion to let Cao Xiang inherit Cao Shi's title and become the new Pingyang Marquis.

As the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, it is impossible for Princess Pingyang to give gifts to others.

So for the funeral of such a Hou Ye, who can be regarded as the No. 1 in the Han Dynasty, only Cao Xiang has been giving gifts to others.

The entire Cao family was held in the hands of Princess Pingyang, and the Cao family in Chang'an City all looked submissive.

Zhang Yuan and Wei Qing comforted Cao Xiang a few words, and then resigned from Princess Pingyang, wanting to go back to Lantian Mountain directly.

"Your Royal Highness, please don't be too sad. Pingyang Hou has not grown up yet, and the whole family will rely on you to support it in the future.

In the future, if there is a place where the ministers can be used, please Princess Pingyang do not have to avoid suspicion and open her mouth directly. ”

In the past few days, Chang'an City has been lifeless, and there is no vitality in the palace at all.

Except for Liu Che's edict after the abolition, others didn't know what was happening in the palace at all.

Princess Pingyang hesitated for a moment, and then whispered to Zhang Yuan.

"On the afternoon of the day you came to Chang'an City, Shaofu Ling Chu Da resigned, I heard that Taixue Ling and Shaofu Ling have always been good friends, and I don't know if you know this news."

Zhang Yuan's expression was obviously nervous, he really didn't know about Chu Da's resignation. dog

Chu Da didn't have any friends in Chang'an City, and it is estimated that he didn't know the news of Zhang Yuan's coming to Chang'an City.

In addition, the matter happened urgently, so there was no time to inform Zhang Yuan of the news.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, Princess, for telling you the news.

I don't know if Her Royal Highness the princess knows that Chu Da is still in Chang'an City? ”

"It is said that he left the day before yesterday, but it seems that he went to Du County, and he should be looking for you."

Zhang Yuan had no doubts about the authenticity of what Princess Pingyang said.

Fortunately, Princess Pingyang told Zhang Yuan the news, otherwise he and Wei Qing would go back to Lantian Mountain directly later, maybe they would miss it with Chu Da, a friend, in this life.

As for why Chu Da didn't go directly to Lantian Mountain to wait for Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan also guessed what the reason was.

It is estimated that it is because Chu Da has no official status now, and he cannot enter the jurisdiction of Shanglin Yuan.

Of course, with the interpersonal relationships that Chu Da has cultivated for so many years in Shaofu, it must be very simple to enter Shanglin Yuan.

But now Chu Da must have a last resort and was forced to resign, and if he can cause less trouble, he will cause less trouble, and Zhang Yuan can understand this.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, the minister still has a stomach of questions to ask Chu Da, so I will say goodbye today."

Zhang Yuan had already opened his mouth to say goodbye, and Wei Qing had no desire to continue to stay.

"Your Royal Highness, the minister will also rush to Dinghu Yanshou Palace to prepare for the opening of the mansion, so don't say goodbye."

"Well, both of you are the pillars of the Han Dynasty, remember to be steady in the future.

Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. ”

"Thank you, Your Highness Princess, for your warning!"

......

It rained lightly for several days, and although it did not reach the point of flooding, the road from Chang'an City to Du County was full of mud.

Zhang Yuan likes to wear plain clothes, and in the past, he never went out in this kind of weather, let alone galloped on a horse.

The mud on his clothes was full of yellow marks, which always reminded Zhang Yuan of that disgusting thing.

One after another things came over, so that Zhang Yuan was not in the mood to continue to care about whether his clothes were dirty.

"Brother Yuan, I guess Brother Chu was implicated because of the witch Gu matter."

On the horse, Wei Qing saw that Zhang Yuan's face was full of worry, and he couldn't help but say the guess in his heart.

"It must be, otherwise at this moment, even if the Shaofu Order, who manages the finances of the palace and taxes in the mountains and fields of the world, resigns, His Majesty will not let him go so soon.

It seems that there is a problem with Shaofu, and Chu Da has no choice but to resign.

Zhang Tang's person, if Chu Da didn't resign, he would really be arrested and sent to the Tingwei Mansion, and the end would definitely not be too good-looking. ”

"So, Brother Yuan, do you support Brother Chu's resignation?"

"Nature is supportive.

Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, if it weren't for the fact that I am already too deep involved in officialdom to extricate myself.

On the other hand, Your Majesty will not let me go, do you think I really have this change because I am addicted to being an official? ”

"I really thought you were enlightened, brother.

It turned out to be the same as before. ”

"Haha, I'm still the same boy I used to be, brother!

Everyone says I'm for the big guy, but I know that I've been just a selfish person from the beginning to the end.

If it were ordinary people, as long as my family was well fed, I would no longer care about the life or death of the world.

Now I am the secretary of the Han Dynasty, as long as the people of the whole world live well, and the Han soldiers are strong and the food is sufficient, Your Majesty will be happy.

I, a great official, will not die because I have a son of heaven who has troubles in my heart every day.

Don't look at me for making so many things, in fact, just to live better.

As for the successive provocations of Your Majesty in recent days, it is just to make Your Majesty pay more attention to my plan.

Otherwise, do you really think that I, Zhang Yuan, have become the husband who is not afraid of life and death? ”

Wei Qing furrowed his eyebrows tightly, not because of Zhang Yuan's selfishness, but because of the information revealed in and out of Zhang Yuan's words.

"Brother Yuan, don't you mean that what you do in the future will make Dahan better and better?"

"It's not just about getting better and better, it's about doing things that will change the landscape of Dahan.

Have you ever thought about how many wars you can fight with the national strength of the Han Dynasty? At that time, the national strength was exhausted, and the Huns were not completely conquered, or the Huns were driven away.

The Han will face a crisis of internal and external troubles.

Of course, the Xiongnu must be fought, and we must end the war against the Xiongnu in the shortest possible time, so that the Han Dynasty will not have the crisis of foreign invasion in the next few hundred years.

And the Han will not be dragged down by the war against the Xiongnu.

Brother Qing, do you have the confidence to fight the Hetao in the first battle, and then the south of the desert in the first battle, the west of the river in the third station, and the north of the desert in the last stop? ”

The Hetao is Zhang Yuan's main goal this time, and it is actually the least difficult.

Those who are familiar with the Hetao area know that the natural environment here makes it necessary for the Huns in the Hetao area to face the Han army.

One million Huns, Zhang Yuan didn't know any art of war, and he was confident that he would slaughter 500,000 Han troops.

This time, Wei Qing has an army of 100,000 under his command, and there is definitely no problem with more than 200,000 slave troops.

Zhang Yuan doesn't know how many people are in the Hun Loufu King and the Aries King in the Hetao area, and it is estimated that they don't even know these two Hun kings, but together there are definitely no 200,000, and even 100,000 are hanging.

The military minister's own tribe is just over 100,000 people, how many troops can the two Hun kings have?

With so many troops, if Zhang Yuan was to command, he would definitely divert those slave troops to build cities and reclaim wasteland.

The rest of the 100,000 regular troops treated themselves as a nail in the Hetao area, and they killed as many Huns as they came.

"Hehe, I don't dare to say that the first battle was successful, as long as the Huns are still harassing in the north of the Han Dynasty in this life, my Wei Qing will fight until death."

"What good things are you thinking?

I just said it in vain, do you think that tens of millions of people in the Han Dynasty can let you fight in the north all the time?

You fight until you die, but don't drag down the people of the Han Dynasty.

In the war against the Xiongnu, we must control it within 10 years, and strive to completely wipe out the Xiongnu four times or three times.

By the way, I remember that you have a nephew named Huo Quai, how old is this year? ”

"Why did you mention that unsuccessful brat?

He should be ten years old this year, and he usually accompanies His Majesty with me in the palace, also to prevent him from being entangled with those three sects and nine streams in Chang'an City. ”

"Hey, I'm only ten years old...

You go back and take care of your nephew and tell him not to drink raw water! ”

"Why?"

"There's no why, I've never asked you for anything in my life, and you must take this matter to heart.

This matter is very important to you and me, even more important to Huo Quai, and equally important to Dahan and His Majesty! ”
