The sun's afterglow faded into the sky, and the sunset stained most of the sky red. After a slow walk, I finally came to Changle Palace. When Xu Pingjun got out of the car, the first palace lamp of Changle Palace happened to be lit, and immediately, thousands of palace lamps burned one by one, pulling the whole world back from darkness to light.

Xu Pingjun never entered the palace as the daughter of a small official. If it weren't for Liu Ai's status as a child of the royal family, she would be like ordinary people in Chang'an City, and she could only watch from afar at home. Follow her husband cautiously. Walking into the Changxin Palace, the floor under your feet is clean and bright, just like the clear lake water, and you can see the reflected figures. On the pillars in the hall, the dragons opened their teeth and danced their claws, winding upward, as if they were about to break out of the air to suppress the Quartet for the owner of this palace. On both sides of the main hall, rows of guards dressed in armor stand like sculptures. Countless courtiers knelt on either side.

Walking in these gazes, Liu Yi had lowered his head. He didn't let people see his expression, he knew that his time was coming, he couldn't be anxious, he couldn't let people see his ecstasy. In these eyes, there are too many meanings, scrutiny, jealousy, wait-and-see, and countless other emotions mixed in.

Liu Yi has become more and more cautious, and Liu De continued to lead the way until the end of the main hall. The hostess of Changle Palace sat upright, looking at the man who came from a distance, who was his nephew and grandson. Looking at his cautious steps, you can see how much pressure he is taking. The road to becoming an emperor was difficult, even for the princes in the peaceful years. They all wanted to screw each other's heads off quickly, without a trace of delay. Cleanly solve all the competitors and get the greatest rights that God has given to this land. There is no family affection in the heavenly family, although the people want their monarch to be full of mercy, but it is a pity that every emperor who walks to the front of the stage must have blood on his hands. Even his short-lived husband, the wrath of the Son of Heaven, millions of floating corpses, and thousands of miles of blood.

But when the wings are unstable, it is better to hide your anger in your heart. Liu He is a lesson from the past, but it is still necessary to cover as a necessary shield for elders.

After following Liu De to say goodbye to the Empress Dowager, Liu Yi had already sat with Xu Pingjun in the lower left position of the Empress Dowager. The eunuch ordered Huang Xie to take out the edict, and the Empress Dowager Shangguan looked at her nominal junior with a smile and said: "Second Qing, it is the first time that you and your wife have seen me. It's not good for me not to give you a greeting gift, according to me, the title of Yang Pingjun is still too low according to your status. Huang Xie announced the edict.

Huang Xie heard the order of the Empress Dowager Shangguan and bowed down to promise. Then he opened the edict and preached: The edict of the Queen Mother, Yang Pingjun has listened to the edict when he is ill. Liu Yi had heard Huang Xie call his name, got up and tidied up and knelt down to listen to the edict. Huang Xie saw that Liu Yi was already ready, so he continued to read:

The god of the emperor, the god of the earth, favored and surrendered, belonged to Xiu Liyuan. Emperor Wu's great-grandson Yang Pingjun has been ill, and he is virtuous and virtuous. Zong Zhengqing wrote a letter, and the ministers and the prime minister, the general, the liehous, the officials of the two thousand stones, and the doctor discussed it, and the marquis should thank him.

Those who are rumored to be in the world are based on troubled times; Those who have heard of the world will rise to the world; The world it sees, the world is peaceful! If it is not like this, it should be the Marquis of Yangping, with 3,000 households. Therefore, it is a metaphor for future generations! Announce the world, the salty envoy will hear about it, and the Yangping Hou will take over"

Liu Yi has knelt down again and said: Thank the Empress Dowager for her grace, don't be despicable to Sun Chen, and the ministers and grandchildren will live up to the entrustment of their ancestors and the Queen Mother. Liu Yi had already taken the edict that Huang Xie respectfully held, and returned to his seat, and the maids of Changle Palace had already begun to prepare meals for everyone.

The general Huo Guang and the prime minister came to the gate of Changle Palace, and the waiters had been waiting for a long time. After saluting the important ministers of the court, he led the way in front and led everyone to the Nagashin Hall. Huo Guang led everyone to salute the Empress Dowager, and then sat down according to the position arranged by the waiter.

Huo Guang looked at Liu Aiji and his wife in the seat on the left side of the Empress Dowager Shangguan from his seat, and it happened that Liu Aiji's eyes were also looking at him, Huo Guang smiled and nodded, and Liu Aiji also replied immediately. But after looking at Xu Guangping, he seemed to remember something, just looked at it twice again and nodded thoughtfully, and then looked away.

Liu Yi had already felt Huo Guang's gaze, and he felt a pressure. In his previous life, when he read history books, he once joked with his classmates that Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty had a really poor psychological quality. is already a son of heaven, and he is still under pressure with Huo Guang. And today in the main hall, I understand what kind of eyes it is, bright, sharp, and the aggressiveness in the eyes makes you feel the oppression in the sense of life level. This is not the coercion brought by power, I always played in Zhang's Mansion when I was a child, and I also saw Zhang Anshi, a general of chariots and cavalry. And Zhang Anshi didn't put so much mental pressure on himself when he came back, no wonder Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty in his previous life ascended to the base year, and there would be an allusion to the thorn in his back when he was in the same car with Huo Guang. Although there is the golden key of the memory of the past life, know the historical process. But with this kind of famous minister, he must be more careful, and after making up his mind, Liu Yi has picked up the wine glass and took a sip gently.

The wine in the main hall was overflowing, and Liu Ill had even smelled the aroma of the old wine in the wine cellar that Gaozu Liu Bang had left in this Changle Palace. gratefully looked at the Empress Dowager Shangguan who was sitting on the top, and in order to build momentum for herself, she took out the few existing magic wines in Changle Palace. It is to remind everyone here that you will eat the king's fortune and bear the king's worries. The descendants of the Liu family of the Han Empire have not yet withered away, and the courtiers can have their own small calculations, but they can't be as confused as they are today. You must know that the batch of fine wines brewed during the Liu Bang period will generally only be used when the new monarch ascends the throne or the first emperor establishes a temple.

Yang Yi sat in his position and drank the French wine, and his heart was desolate. The lord is worried about the death of the minister, and the queen mother is using wine to warn. The disloyalty of the foreign ministers. is also asking Yang Yi, your Yang family has been loyal to the Han Dynasty for generations, and the first emperor appointed you Yang Yi as prime minister. This is how you restrain hundreds of officials and rule the world on behalf of the Son of Heaven. Forget it, it's better to go back.

Yang Yi seemed to have aged by more than ten years all of a sudden, and stood up in his seat tremblingly and walked to the center of the hall. knelt down and bowed in the eyes of everyone and said: Minister Yang Yi, tell the Queen Mother that the country cannot be without a king for a day. Yangping Hou Liu is ill, capable and extraordinary, proficient in "Han Law", distinguishing between right and wrong, filial piety and sincerity, and having both talent and morality. Only by being virtuous can we be virtuous. Stand on your own. Therefore, it can be safe for a long time, and the ministers bow their heads and bow to the queen mother! , coupled with the fact that the Marquis of Yangping is also the blood of Emperor Wu, he can inherit the unification. I implore the Queen Mother to see clearly

The ministers in the main hall heard the words of Prime Minister Yang Yi, and hurriedly left the table to worship together: Yangping Hou is extraordinary, filial piety and sincerity, and has both talent and virtue. Please let the Queen Mother know clearly

Liu Yi had heard the invitation of Prime Minister Yang Yi and the ministers, and hurriedly left the table to bow down and shirk and said: Sun Chen, young and frivolous, I don't know the general situation, how can I bear this thousand catties of burden.

The Empress Dowager Shangguan listened to Liu Aiji's words, but she just smiled and didn't make a sound. After that, he stared at Prime Minister Yang Yi, thinking about the meaning in his heart. But after all, he was young, and after thinking about it, the top priority now was to implement Liu Aiji's throne, and other things were thinking about it in the future. Regardless of whether the fruit thrown by Yang Yi is poisonous or not, it must be swallowed in one bite, otherwise it will change later. Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager Shangguan said: The prime minister has become a ruler of the country, and the ministers also praised the Marquis of Yangping. It turned out that Yangping Marquis Liu was already the foundation of the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, and he should be established as the Son of Heaven immediately.

"No! The ministers obey the orders of the Queen Mother! Yang Yi led the ministers to kneel down and kowtow.
