As autumn deepens and the weather gets cooler, the leaves of the sycamore tree fall off layer after layer. The nurse in the Hehuan Hall fed Liu Hong, and Wang Yi hugged him in his arms, holding a small drum to tease Liu Hong, "Hong'er, it's your moon ceremony soon, I don't know what your father will reward you?" ”

The nurse smiled and said: "The little prince is the meat of Your Majesty's heart, Your Majesty will definitely reward rare things, and Madame will also let us open our eyes." ”

Wang Yi was quite complacent when she heard this, and said with a smile: "This is natural, who made us Hong'er so pleasing to His Majesty!" ”

While he was talking, there was a sound outside the palace gate, and Wang Yi laughed when he heard it: "Look, the queens are here, it must be to prepare for our Hong'er Moon Ceremony!" Unconsciously smiling, he handed Liu Hong to the nurse, and walked a few steps to greet him: "The concubine sees the queen, and the queen is happy!" ”

Wei Zifu smiled and said, "Mrs. Wang is exempt!" How is the little prince doing? ”

Wang Yi said: "Inheriting the blessing of Your Majesty and the Queen, Hong'er is all right." ”

Wei Zifu bowed slightly, and said: "This palace is here for Hong'er's full moon gift." ”

Wang Yi smiled more and more when she heard this, but she pretended to be humble and said: "Your Majesty cherishes Hong'er, and has given a lot of rare things. ”

"It's rare for Mrs. Wang to know the general situation so well, and Your Majesty also means this." Wei Zifu nodded in praise, and said slightly: "Now that the Queen Mother is sick, all the banquets and joys in the palace are simple, in order to show Your Majesty's filial piety to the Queen Mother." ”

Wang Yi's heart instantly cooled when she heard this, and because Wei Zifu was in front of her, she had to say respectfully: "The concubine obeys the order!" ”

"Picking." Wei Zifu turned his head to Cai Xi and said, "Present the full moon ceremony prepared by the palace for the little prince." ”

"No!" Cai Xi stepped forward, handed over a piece of fabric, opened it was a pair of red tiger head shoes and a peace and good luck knot, Wei Zifu smiled: "This is the moon ceremony woven by this palace for Hong'er, may Hong'er have a tiger head and a tiger brain, peace and happiness!" ”

Wang Yi squeezed out a smile and took it: "Thank you to the queen on behalf of Hong'er, concubine!" ”

As soon as Wei Zifu left, Wang Yi's face suddenly turned cold, and he threw Wei Zifu's full moon ceremony to the ground with his hand, and said coldly: "Hmph! Why does my Hong'er Moon Ceremony have to be simple? It seems that Liu Ling is right, he must always be on guard against you, Wei Zifu! ”

"Your Majesty!" Xiao Huangmen approached Liu Che's side and said in a low voice: "The master of the middle doctor's father asks to see him outside the palace!" ”

Liu Che frowned, thinking about the princes and kings that had been plaguing the imperial court. Since Gaozu Liu Bang founded the country with the same surname as the king, the feudal kingdom of the princes and kings occupied most of the country, with the continuous expansion of power for many years, and finally formed a situation where the tail could not be dropped, and then threatened the central power, in the Jingdi Dynasty there was a rebellion of the princes and kings of the Seven Kingdoms, although the rebellion was finally quelled, the power of the princes and kings was also greatly weakened, but the situation has not changed fundamentally over the years, how to peacefully weaken the princes and kings to strengthen the central imperial power, is a question he often thinks about.

"Lord Father?" Liu Che raised his head from deep thought, remembering that when the early imperial court was discussing the issue of sealing the country, the master father Yan seemed to want to speak and stopped, so Liu Che raised his voice and said: "Xuan! ”

Not long after, Xiao Huangmen led the lord father into the hall, and after the salute, the lord father said: "Your Majesty, today the court is discussing the chronic disease of the country, and the minister has a plan, and he is willing to dedicate it to His Majesty!" ”

Liu Che said: "You can say it." ”

The lord father said: "Your Majesty, the ancient princes are only a hundred miles of fiefdom, and the shape of strength and weakness is easy to control, but now the princes of our dynasty are often thousands of miles away, if they are treated slowly, they will be arrogant and lascivious, if they are treated severely, they will be urged to join forces to resist the Beijing Division, if they are cut by law, then the reverse will sprout, and the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of the first emperor is a precedent." Therefore, the ministers think about it, there is only one law that can be controlled, Your Majesty try to imagine, the princes and kings have dozens of children under their knees, but only the eldest son can inherit the land of the fiefdom, although the rest of the children are blood relatives, but not an inch of fiefdom, this system not only makes the princes' children resentful, even if the princes and kings think of their parents, they are helpless. If Your Majesty can issue an edict ordering the princes and kings to promote the benevolence, divide the land and cities into the sons and daughters, and Your Majesty will give them the feudal lords according to the land, the fiefdom of the kingdom will shrink day by day over the years, and the power of the princes and kings will not need to collapse on their own without the strength of the imperial court. This is clearly a generous favor for His Majesty, but it is actually a policy to weaken the feudal country, what does Your Majesty think? ”

"Wonderful!" Liu Che couldn't help but stroking his palms and laughing when he heard this, "Aiqing is really a genius!" In this way, I don't need to spend a single soldier, and the disease of the feudal country is eliminated! ”

"In this matter, Aiqing will revise the book in detail and submit it to Shangshutai according to this strategy, and I will issue an edict to implement it in a few days." Liu Che said with a smile, "Since this strategy is in the name of spreading grace, I think it's called 'Tui En Order'!" ”

The master father replied with a smile: "Obey the holy commandment! ”

Looking at the twilight outside the hall, Wei Zifu was still leaning on the door, Liu Che had previously passed the will to come to the Jiaofang Palace for dinner, but the time for eating had already passed, and the holy car was still in the future, Cai Xi couldn't help but persuade: "Queen, Your Majesty is still discussing state affairs in the Chengming Palace, and I am afraid that I will not come to eat when I see the time." ”

"The Queen Mother was not in good health before, and Your Majesty was already worried, and now she is worried about state affairs." Wei Zifu thought for a moment and said, "Caixi, put your majesty's favorite food into the food box, and I will send it to your majesty." ”

The twilight was already thick, and the lights in the palace gradually lit up, and Wei Zifu hurried to the Chengming Hall with Caixi.

"Queen!" Before he arrived outside the Chengming Palace, he saw a guard coming towards him, and with his call, Wei Zifu's eyes couldn't help but look over.

After seeing the person who came, Wei Zifu couldn't help but be surprised: "Brother Gongsun! ”

Gongsun Ao bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Queen!" Gongsun listened to what Wei Qing said, if it weren't for the queen to intercede for Gongsun in front of His Majesty, how could Gongsun and the common people return to the camp? ”

"Brother is serious!" Wei Zifu said, "If it wasn't for my brother who saved Wei Qing, why would Wei Qing be here today?" Even when I was in the Pick-up Palace, I was also taken care of by my brother! Thinking of those days, both of them couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

"Is the queen going to bring dinner to His Majesty?" Gongsun Ao couldn't help but ask when he saw that Cai Xi, who followed Wei Zifu, was carrying a food box.

"Hmm." Wei Zifu bowed slightly, "Your Majesty is still discussing state affairs in the Chengming Palace, so it should be that you haven't eaten yet." ”

"In this way, Gongsun does not dare to delay the queen!" Gongsun Ao hurriedly saluted and said, "Queen, please!" ”

When Wei Zifu left, Gongsun Ao walked forward, and suddenly felt that he stepped on something, looked down, it turned out to be a green jade earring, Gongsun Ao immediately leaned over to pick it up, this earring is azure color, the shape is round, at a glance it is the best Hetian jade, Gongsun Ao guessed that Wei Zifu was accidentally lost just now, and was thinking about catching up, but seeing that the two had gone away, Gongsun Ao thought about it slightly, and then put the earring into his arms and turned to leave.

This scene happened to be completely absorbed in the eyes of Xingxiang not far away, and I saw her stop for a moment and leave in a hurry.

Soon after Liu Hong's joy of the full moon, according to Liu Che's meaning everything is simple, only hang the five-color silk rope on the lintel of the Hehuan Palace, in order to pray to avoid evil and disaster, and protect the safety of the child, Liu Che ordered people to send red gold longevity, meaning longevity and longevity. Weiyang Palace and Changle Palace each gave some treasures and gold, although the meaning of cherishing is not reduced, but compared to Liu Ju's moon ceremony, it is the difference between cloud and mud, which makes Wang Yi very dissatisfied.

The nurse in the Hehuan Hall was breastfeeding Liu Hong, and the palace people came to Wang Yi and said, "Madam, Huainan Weng Lord Liu Ling is asking to see you outside the palace." ”

"Lord Huainan Weng?" Wang Yi was in a bad mood and wanted to push but didn't see it, but as soon as she groaned, she said to the nurse on the side: "You carry the little prince into the inner room." After that, he said to Xingxiang: "Please master!" The rest of the people stood down. ”

Xingxiang went as promised, Wang Yi dressed up a little, and soon heard Liu Ling's laughter: "Madam, Liu Ling is here to disturb again." ”

Wang Yi smiled and got up to greet him: "It's good that Weng will come and walk around often." ”

"Hehehe!" Both of them couldn't help but hide their faces and smile, Wang Yi said to Xingxiang: "Xingxiang, tea." ”

"Why don't you see the little prince?" Liu Ling sat down and looked around and asked.

Wang Yi said: "The nurse has just fed Hong'er and is sleeping in the inner room. ”

"Oh..."Liu Ling nodded, frowned, and said: "I heard that the queen mother is sick, and the little prince's moon gift has been simplified, the queen is really virtuous." ”

Wang Yi squeezed out a smile when she heard this, and said, "The queen is indeed virtuous. ”

Seeing this, Liu Ling sighed and said: "The full moon ceremony is so important to the little prince, the queen can do it simply, if it goes on like this, the future of the lady and the prince is worrying!" ”

Wang Yi's expression was gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "Who let the concubine come from a humble background?" ”

Liu Ling snorted and said, "Where is Wei Zifu's background?" At the beginning, she was just a singer in Pingyang Mansion, and she won the favor of His Majesty with her clever words, and she climbed to the position of the queen today. ”

"What clever words!" Wang Yi said indignantly, "I will also charm men and communicate privately." ”

"Seductive man, private dealings?" Liu Ling was interested, "How do you say this?" ”

Wang Yi knew that she was speechless, and hurriedly covered it up: "The concubine is talking nonsense, and please don't blame the lord Weng." ”

How could Liu Ling believe it, seeing this, he hurriedly asked: "What Madame said must not be nonsense, why don't you say it?" ”

Wang Yi saw that he couldn't hide it in front of Liu Ling, and saw that Xingxiang was serving refreshments, so he said: "Xingxiang, tell Lord Weng what you saw that day." ”

"No!" Xingxiang presented refreshments and said, "A few days ago, the slave maid happened to see the queen having a private relationship with a guard, and called the guard ... For..."Xingxiang couldn't remember the name for a while, and couldn't help but pause, Liu Ling said tentatively, "Gongsun? ”

"That's right! Right! Xingxiang nodded and said, "Call him Brother Gongsun!" The queen had a very close relationship with the guard, and when the queen left, the guard picked up what the queen had lost, and not only did not return it, but put it in his arms and left. ”

"Oh..."Liu Ling heard a hint of an intriguing smile on his face, and asked Xiang Xingxiang, "What can you see that the guard picked up from the ground?" ”

Xingxiang shook his head and said, "At that time, it was dark, and the slave didn't see it clearly. ”

"If it's the queen's thing, why don't you catch up and return it? It seems that the relationship between the two is not so simple. Liu Ling's eyes rolled, and a plan came to his mind, and he said to Wang Yi: "There is an opportunity now, I don't know if you can grasp it?" ”

Wang Yi looked puzzled and wondered: "Opportunity? Please also ask the Lord to give advice! ”
