"You officials protect each other, a raccoon dog, I don't accept it, I want to see Your Majesty."

Yang Miaozhen's lungs were about to explode, she didn't expect that this eldest prince would punish herself if she came up, and she was immediately dissatisfied, she shouted loudly: "I want to see Your Majesty, I want to see Your Majesty." ”

The eldest prince Liu Chen didn't expect that the other party had misunderstood, and he didn't bother to explain, so he turned his head to look at Shi Zhenqi and said: "The iron law of the Han Dynasty, those who bully men and women are killed, you are a high-ranking official of the third grade, and Lone has no right to kill you." But today, the consultant wants to give an explanation to the Yang family brothers and sisters, come on, arrest this Shi Zhenqi, beat fifty military sticks, and then send him to the military justice department. ”

After all, Shi Zhenqi's sister is a concubine and the son of the Shi family, and Liu Chen is still afraid of this aspect.

As soon as he heard that he was going to catch himself and beat fifty military sticks, Shi Zhenqi quit, and this guy said angrily: "Great prince, you are so majestic, who gives you the power to dare to beat your own official, it is simply lawless." ”

"It's the power I gave him." Liu Zhenglong, the emperor of the Han Dynasty in the distance, finally spoke, he had long known that the four major families were lawless, and regarded the law of the Han Dynasty as child's play.

As soon as they heard that His Majesty was coming, the soldiers fell to their knees one after another. Shi Zhenqi was also panicked, and he hurriedly knelt down to ask for punishment.

The Son of Heaven waved his hand and said, "Your father is in charge of the Military Justice Department of the Han Empire, so I will send you over." ”

Shi Zhenqi thought that His Majesty was opening the net, and immediately knelt on the ground to thank him.

Bing Xue is smart and wise, but Yang Miaozhen saw the clues, she felt that the trick of the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty was too ruthless, which was equivalent to roasting the entire Shi family and even the four major families on the fire. It seems that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty wants to use Shi Zhenqi's head to beat the magnates led by the four major families. If the Shi family knew about convergence, they would cut off Shi Zhenqi's head and thank the world, and this page would be revealed. If the Shi family is favoritic, after the thunderous rage, it will be a ruthless purge of the Shi family.

Yang Miaozhen, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his head and looked at the Son of Heaven, in the heart of this beautiful woman, this Son of Heaven was like a god descending to the world, and he couldn't help but feel admiration, but it was a pity that the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty didn't look at her at all.

Things are similar to what Yang Miaozhen thought, after escorting Shi Zhenqi to the imperial capital, Shi Yi, who was in charge of the Ministry of Military Justice, made it difficult for His Majesty to let himself kill his relatives in righteousness, but the crime committed by his son was not so serious, and the crime was not to death.

Shi Yi, who couldn't make up his mind for a while, entered the palace to meet the concubine Shi Yuanyuan.

Shi Yuanyuan was dumbfounded after hearing this, she stared straight at her father and said, "The battle in the harem has long been a hot talk, you don't know, how can you let your younger brother poke out such a big basket?" Among the princes, the one is not both civil and military, only your nephew who is not angry is weak, and he writes a good article, but he can't hold a strong bow, can't get on a war horse, and can't get His Majesty's favor at all, how to gain a foothold in the future. Now you still don't understand Your Majesty's intentions, that is, you are already dissatisfied with the four major families, just use this matter to knock the four major families, how can your old man take the initiative to hit the muzzle of the gun? ”

"Your Majesty has made a blood oath to the four major families, be rich and noble, don't forget each other, and never release military power with a glass of wine." It seems that Shi Yi still doesn't have enough understanding of the seriousness of the whole matter, in his opinion, as long as he faces His Majesty's beating, it would be good to keep a low profile in the future.

"Your Majesty will not release the military power with a glass of wine, but the iron law of the Han Dynasty is something that no one can violate, this is what all courtiers have sworn to Your Majesty, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, without exception, even the crown prince and the queen cannot disobey. Whoever violates it will be a scene, that is, anyone who violates the law of the Han Dynasty can be killed. ”

Shi Yuanyuan is still relatively favored in the palace, she knows Your Majesty's temperament very well, and Her Majesty has made an oath with the four major families, but Your Majesty does not allow anyone to override the iron law of the Han Dynasty. Your Majesty once said, "Whoever breaks the law, I love, I say that the living can be killed." The meaning is very clear, the imperial concubine and the prince can be killed, so what is a relative?

"However, you can't watch your brother die, so how can you bear to watch him die, watching your father send a white-haired man to a black-haired man?"

Shi Yi is not a person with a strong desire for power, he has a strong family concept, and he is willing to resign from his official position and not want to kill his son.

Shi Yuanyuan and Shi Zhenqi are twins, how can she bear to let her younger brother die?

After pondering for a long time, Shi Yuanyuan said: "To solve the bell, you must tie the bell, since it is the evil seed born by Li Qingluo, let her bear the consequences." ”

Over the years, Li Qingluo has not lived comfortably, after all, she is of a different race, and she is still somewhat ostracized in the palace, and even the children she gave birth to are not qualified to raise. Coupled with the continuous expansion of the harem, only the newcomers laugh, who knows that the old people cry, Li Qingluo has not been favored by His Majesty for at least ten years, and has not seen a child for more than a year.

Faced with Shi Guifei's Xingshi questioning, Li Qingluo didn't know what to do, but Bing Xue was smart and she still knew what the other party meant. That is, if Shi Zhenqi is really executed, then the entire Shi family will go all out to target the eldest prince and finally die.

The son is the mother's heart, Li Qingluo can bear the pain by herself, she can endure loneliness, but she can't ignore her son. You must know that the Shi family is huge, if the Shi family's power is against him, how can a sixteen-year-old child deal with it?

Li Qingluo did not have the strength to help the eldest prince, so she could only come and beg the queen Pan Yun in the end.

Queen Pan Yun still owes Li Qingluo a little bit, she didn't give birth to the prince back then, and adopted the eldest prince to her side, and she still feels guilty about this hard-working woman.

Pan Yun knew that Li Qingluo had something to talk about when she was looking for her, so she separated the palace maids below and said: "Sister, you won't come to this palace if you have nothing to do, just say anything about it, this palace will be your master." ”

Li Qingluo simply said the intention, and finally she said: "The eldest prince is right, but the Shi family's power is too huge, and he is very upright, in case something happens, there will be no point in my life." But I'm too weak to give him any help, and I hope that the queen will come forward to help the eldest prince solve the siege. ”

"Sister, he is your son, my son, and His Majesty's son, it will be fine." Pan Yun was so wise that she immediately understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, and it was obviously aimed at herself. Li Qingluo is weak in the palace, where does she have any strength to solve this problem, it seems that Shi Yuanyuan has made a plan to deal with herself.

Pan Yun comforted Li Qingluo for a long time and said, "You go back first, it'll be fine, this matter will be handled by the palace." ”

The iron law of the Han Dynasty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and this time it involves the law of the Han Dynasty, which makes the queen Pan Yun very difficult, and after thinking about it, she finally decided to invite her father into the palace.

Pan Xu, the Duke of Sui, is already over seventy years old, and he raises flowers and feeds birds at home on weekdays, and he has long been unable to ask about the affairs of the court, but he can't help but pay attention to his daughter's affairs.

The old prince entered the palace, and the news soon spread to the front of the battle, and Liu Zhenglong, the son of the Han Dynasty, was noncommittal about this matter, but called the eldest prince Liu Chen to his room.

"The son-in-law saw his father, and the son-in-law was reckless this time, which blocked his father." The eldest prince Liu Chen is an extremely smart child, how can he not know what the consequences of offending Shi Zhenqi are, behind that is the powerful Shi family, and then the military and martial arts families headed by the four major families, you know, these families have made great achievements for the Han Dynasty, and their influence has penetrated into almost every corner of the Han Dynasty, and has formed a trend that the tail will not fall, even His Majesty has to be afraid of three points, and he is indeed a little reckless this time.

"I ask you, do you think you're doing the right thing this time?"

"Back to my father, Erchen thinks that he is right, even if he comes again, Erchen will do it."

Liu Zhenglong waved his hand and said: "Get up, there are only you and my father and son here, just chat, you are my bloodline, as long as you think it is right, do it, the sky will fall, and I will give it to you." ”

Hearing his father say this, Liu Chen knew about this matter, his father was under great pressure, and he even regretted it a little, and in reflection, he punished Shi Zhenqi by himself, whether it was to maintain the iron law of the Han Dynasty, or whether he fell in love with the beautiful Yang Miaozhen.

"Do you think Shi Zhenqi's head will fall to the ground this time?" Liu Zhenglong is still very optimistic about this eldest son, which may have something to do with Liu Chen and himself, and more importantly, this child was excluded from the ranks of the throne competition, which is more simple, and without the mother's family to make suggestions in the back, he will not think about the matter of seizing the heir.

Since ancient times, the biggest pain of the emperor's family is the battle for succession, and no matter how wise the emperor is, he can't handle this matter well. The Duke of Qi Huan, the five tyrants of the Spring and Autumn Period, starved to death because the prince fought for the throne. The fate of King Zhao Wuling, who was riding and shooting in Hufu, can also be regarded as a tragedy. Even Qin Shi Huang, the first emperor of the ages, did not change the tragic urging of the emperor's eldest son Fusu to commit suicide and Qin II to die. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty personally executed his crown prince, and as for the Tang Dynasty, it was even more explosive to the Xuanwumen Change, the Ming Dynasty Yan King Zhu Di Jing was difficult, and the Nine Dragons in the era of the Kangxi Emperor seized the heir. As a latecomer, Liu Zhenglong also has a headache, and he has no good solution.

Liu Chen thought for a long time and said: "Erchen thinks that Shi Zhenqi will definitely fall to the ground, the iron law of the Han Dynasty, no one is exempt, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, how can he escape?" ”

"He can't die, I can't kill him." Speaking of which, Liu Zhenglong is also very helpless, the Han has congenital deficiencies, that is, the foundation is unstable, the foundation of the Han is those meritorious families, if these families join forces to make trouble, the foundation of the Empire State Building will collapse.

"In the Han Dynasty, the father and emperor should be dictatorial, no matter how powerful the Shi family is, can they dare to disobey the emperor's orders?" Liu Chen was a little confused, in his opinion, the Pan family, which had the most power in the Han Dynasty, did not dare to disobey His Majesty's will, so how could the Shi family fight against the imperial court?

Liu Zhenglong saw that the eldest son of the emperor did not have the comprehension in this regard, so he had no idea of continuing to cultivate, and it seemed that this child would be more suitable to gallop on the battlefield in the future.

Thinking of this, Liu Zhenglong said: "Today, you and my father and son have a small bar, today there is only father and son, no monarchs and ministers." ”

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Liu Zhenglong put down his wine glass and said: "Today I will tell you a story, there was an emperor in ancient times, he was wise and martial. But when this emperor is old, the following sons are in trouble for the throne... ”

Liu Zhenglong told the story of the Nine Dragons in the late Kangxi Emperor, and of course, he also focused on the story of the earliest eldest brother leading the army to fight, and finally he said: "That eldest prince should have become a famous general for a dynasty, and he was immortal, but he was imprisoned until death. The third prince could have become a great Confucian and respected, and the eighth prince should also become a generation of virtuous kings, but the result was also imprisoned to death. Poor born in the emperor's family, I can still be in charge of the Han Dynasty for at least twenty years, when I leave, everything that should be taken away will be taken away, and what should be eradicated will not be left. The tail of the four major families is too big, and I will deal with it after the unification of the world, and before that, I still need to avoid some. You don't want to go back to the capital, follow Marshal Hebron to the west, and establish a vassal state there wherever you can fight, and I will visit you in my lifetime. ”

When he said this, Liu Zhenglong's tiger eyes rolled a few teardrops, the anger of the Son of Heaven, millions of floating corpses, and rivers of blood, but the Son of Heaven also had times when he was helpless, and he was also powerless.

Liu Chen seems to understand whether he understands or not, understands that this time he is in trouble, making his father embarrassed, this time his father made concessions, he can only let himself go on an expedition to the northwest, he finally understands that the four major families that cannot be lost are the henchmen of the Han Dynasty, but at this time, he is powerless, he can't solve problems for his father, he can only add chaos.

"The Son of Heaven, under the whole world, is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. It seems that the Son of Heaven is high, but many times, the Son of Heaven also has the helplessness of the Son of Heaven. This matter, Shi Guifei, your mother, and the queen are all involved, how can I choose, I can only do this. After the Battle of Bianliang is over, you will follow Marshal Hebron to the west, first destroy the Western Liao, and then continue the westward expedition, expand the territory for the Han Dynasty, and lay a foundation for yourself. ”。

"Son, remember." Liu Chen, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't cry, he knew that at this moment, he announced that his ignorant love had been cut off, and it would be impossible to find a way to marry Yang Miaozhen in the future.

Liu Zhenglong really didn't find out that Liu Chen had fallen in love with Yang Miaozhen, if he knew, he would definitely give him a marriage, and he would definitely not let his eldest son go west with regrets. To be honest, he didn't notice Yang Miaozhen at all, and he didn't have any impression of this girl with her head down and kneeling on the ground, so how could she see that her son liked her?
