Chapter 451: The Battle of the Crown Prince
"Lord Zhang's drink, shouldn't it be tea?"
Ordinary people say that when they drink a cup, they are all drinking, but Zhang Liang only provides tea at this time, which makes Xiao He feel very bored.
However, Zhang Liang smiled: "Lord Xiao wants to drink, I'll ask someone to buy a jar and come back later." ”
Xiao He was speechless, the minister of the Han Kingdom who dared to be affectionate, didn't even have a jar of wine at home?
Or, this Zhang Liang is too picky, and he is not even willing to feast himself with a jar of wine?
"That's it, that's it, let's have tea today, Lord Zhang invited me to come, but what else is there?"
Drinking tea or drinking, this is really nothing, a smart person like Xiao He knows very well that Zhang Liang invited him to come.
Zhang Liang smiled and said, "Lord Xiao, the recent battle for the crown prince of my Han Kingdom has become more and more powerful, I don't know what Lord Xiao thinks about this matter?" ”
Hearing Zhang Liang ask him about the crown prince, Xiao He immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Zhang is a smart person, how can I discuss the matter of the crown prince?" ”
The crown prince is a major event of a country, and anyone can discuss it, but if they discuss it in private, if Liu Jibang knows about it, I am afraid that they will be alienated by Liu Jibang in the future.
In the battle for imperial power, the Son of Heaven has never liked the intervention of courtiers.
Of course, it's not that you can't interfere, it's just that after you intervene, the Son of Heaven will have to defend you.
However, Zhang Liang didn't care, and said: "It's just you and me here today, why not talk about it?" ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Liang seemed to be a little worried that Xiao He would not be able to let go, so he first said it himself: "Queen Lu and Mrs. Qi are now competing for favor, and they also want to fight for the crown prince for their prince, what does Lord Xiao think of the situation of the two of them?" ”
Zhang Liang said this, Xiao He couldn't help but smile bitterly, if he didn't say it again, there would be no way to talk about it this day. "Lord Zhang is being forced to do so, no matter what, no matter what, Queen Lu and Mrs. Qi, Mrs. Qi is younger and more beautiful, and the saint likes her very much, but Queen Lu is more powerful in the court, and the saint has to give three points, so this matter is not what we think, but me
They don't have to look at it at all, the one who can become the prince in the end must be Liu Ying, the prince of Empress Lu, if Mrs. Qi is smart, she shouldn't continue to fight now, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
Xiao He still knows about Queen Lu's situation, and knows that this woman is ruthless, and she has some means, Mrs. Qi fights with her, and she is a little tender.
So the final result is self-evident.
Of course, when Xiao He said this, he didn't want to discuss this matter too much.
Zhang Liang here, but suddenly sighed.
"Lord Xiao has seen it thoroughly, but have you ever thought that if a woman as strong as Queen Lu ascends the throne as the emperor, then the power in the court will fall into the hands of a woman, at that time, is this Han Kingdom still a Han Kingdom?"
The reason why Zhang Liang invited Xiao He to come today is to talk about this matter, indeed, Empress Lu has the means, but if his prince ascends the throne as emperor, it will be extremely unfavorable to the Han State.
In comparison, Mrs. Qi's prince Liu Ruyi is better.
As men, it is difficult for them to accept that a woman is in power.
When Xiao He heard Zhang Liang's words, he raised his head slightly and glanced at Zhang Liang, and at this time, he finally understood what Zhang Liang meant.
Xiao He got up and walked back and forth in the living room.
And at this time, the sky became overcast, and then winter rain began.
Winter rains in Jincheng are sometimes very frequent.
"Does Mr. Zhang want to support Mrs. Qi's prince Liu Ruyi?" After Xiao He stopped, he looked at Zhang Liang and asked.
Zhang Liang nodded: "In this way, isn't it better, with the strength of you and me, plus the support of the DPRK and China for Liu Ruyi, I think it shouldn't be difficult, right?" ”
Xiao He shook his head: "No, I won't get involved in this matter." ”
After speaking, Xiao He offered to say goodbye, and Zhang Liang saw Xiao He like this, and sighed helplessly.
He knew very well that Xiao He just wanted Mingzhe to protect himself, with his status in the Han Kingdom, no matter who became the Son of Heaven, he was afraid that he would not be moved.
It's just that although Mingzhe protects himself, but because Mingzhe doesn't do anything, it is not good for the Han Kingdom.
Zhang Liang himself didn't want to protect himself, but for the sake of the Han Kingdom, he didn't want to work hard.
But now that there is no Xiao He, his efforts alone obviously do not have so much effect and weight.
---------------------------
After Han Xin left the palace, he began to prepare for the next expedition.
And as soon as he returned to the house, a subordinate hurriedly ran over: "General, someone asks to see you." ”
"Who?"
"It's Empress Lu's palace people."
Hearing that it was Empress Lu's person, Han Xin's brows froze slightly, he was a little surprised, because he didn't have anything to do with Empress Lu, at this time he was going to go on an expedition, what did Empress Lu send someone to do with him?
However, in the end, it was the queen's person, and Han Xin didn't dare not see it, and said, "Let him come in." ”
After receiving the order, the subordinates retreated, and it didn't take long for Empress Lu's people to be brought in.
Empress Lu's person is called Jushiqi, and he is a palace person who is very favored by Empress Lu.
He is a eunuch, but he is very handsome, and he usually has a lot of rouge gouache on his body.
When he came to the living room, after seeing Han Xin, he made a slight salute, a very simple etiquette.
After seeing this appearance, Han Xin's brows condensed slightly, although this judge was Empress Lu's person, but for him, a general, it was inevitably too casual.
Han Xin's impression of judging him was not very good, and then he became a little tired of him.
"My father-in-law came to General Ben, but what's the matter?"
Han Xin asked casually, and he smiled and said, "General Han, my queen mother, I want to see you alone, and I ask you to move." ”
Hearing that Empress Lu wanted to see him, Han Xin felt more and more surprised, he didn't expect that Empress Lu would want to see him, he would definitely not go to the harem, that is to say, Empress Lu was outside the palace.
However, Han Xin did not respond immediately, but asked, "I don't know what the queen did when she saw General Ben?" ”
"Naturally, it's for the crown prince's business, Han Xin saw the queen mother, and the queen mother will naturally explain the situation to General Han."
Hearing that it was for the crown prince, Han Xin immediately lost interest, he was just a military general and didn't want to get involved in this matter, of course, he didn't want to be involved too much with Queen Lu. "General Ben is still busy with the affairs of the expedition, and he really doesn't have so much free time, I'm afraid I will let my father-in-law run for nothing, come here, send off guests."
