Although some unpleasant things happened in Chang'an City tonight, Emperor Liu Che's mood did not seem to be affected much.

Not long after the moment passed, Immortal Master Luan told him that all the elixir ingredients of the "Immortal Elixir" had been absorbed, and the time had come, and when His Majesty the Emperor's three-day cultivation was a complete success, he really felt that his body was very different from the past.

The energetic Liu Che did not follow the advice of the immortal master to have a good rest, but immediately came to the Jade Palace and had a few spring breezes with the bewitching and beautiful woman to verify that his majesty still exist......ed.

The wind and moon are long, the good night is short, and there have been several expeditions between the beads and curtains and jade curtains, and before you know it, the east has turned white, and the morning light has appeared. The dawn of Chang'an has finally arrived again.

Li Wanyu is nearly ten years younger than Empress Wei, but she is in her prime. Although he has given birth to a little prince, his appearance is more beautiful and delicate than that of the attenuation, and he is very good at being considerate, and he is tactful and soft between the beds, which meets all the requirements of His Majesty the Emperor. The taste can only be understood but not spoken.

In front of such a beauty, even an emperor like Liu Che will be addicted to it every time and can't extricate himself. That's why she is so favored in the palace, almost a favorite harem, not to mention that the rest of the concubines and beauties are difficult to compare with her, even Queen Wei was far inferior back then.

Whether the emperor was aware of the ambitions that had arisen in such a situation or not, no one could know. The emperor's actions were sometimes so unexpected that it was hard to guess. The skill of the emperor's way is not something that his subordinates can easily grasp, and perhaps only he really knows how to make the final decision on the layout of imperial power.

The emperor was content to lie on the lap of the beauty, feeling that everything was so smooth. Compared with several previous emperors, he can be regarded as the most blessed.

Needless to say, Emperor Gaozu's difficult entrepreneurship was said. After nine deaths and a lifetime, he almost even took his old life, and finally laid down this country. He didn't really enjoy a few days of happiness, but he went away with deep anxiety.

As for the short-lived Emperor Hui of Han, not to mention. That weak-hearted person should not have been born in the emperor's family, and the ultimate tragedy is inevitable.

And the two emperors Wen and Jing, it seems that there are not a few days when they are really happy. There are unruly princes in it, and the ministers of the court and the Weiyang Palace are also fighting openly and secretly for the issue of the right to speak. Outside, there were Xiongnu eyeing each other, violating several times, threatening the safety of Chang'an. Although they have worked hard to make the country prosperous, they have left a relatively good situation, but I am afraid that until the day they lie down in the mausoleum, there will be no real regrets in their hearts.

And when he came to Liu Che, it seemed that he had divine help. Not to mention the good start, but only more than ten years after ascending the throne, he began to enter an era that truly belongs to him. Good talents and beautiful qualities emerge in an endless stream, and mountains and rivers are surging in waves...... A great Han dynasty that truly surpassed all previous dynasties, and its grandeur was gradually taking shape.

Now that the Haiyan River is clear, he is full of ambition, and when he is satisfied, the fairy avenue that he has been pursuing has been getting a glimpse of the doorway, how can he not be ecstatic! In such a state of mind, even if there was some small friction between the courtiers, he didn't see it as serious.

Especially at this time, reminiscing about the unforgettable tastes that have just faded, the fascination with the beauty in front of me is deeper. By the way, a trace of dissatisfaction with Li Xuanji, who had the courage to fight privately with soldiers and horses, had already disappeared without a trace.

Therefore, when half an hour later, Liu Che, who had regained the majesty of the emperor, once again sat on the Hanyuan Hall and accepted the congratulations of hundreds of civil and military officials, with a calm smile and no waves.

However, after three days of absence, the ministers were somewhat surprised to find that His Majesty the Emperor was radiant and seemed to be very different from the past. Is it true that everything that is said in the rumors is true...... The emperor has already met the immortal fate? Or is it for some other reason?

The speculations in the minds of the ministers are different. However, on such a momentous occasion, no one dared to show abnormality on their faces.

Perhaps it was a premonition that something unusual would happen at today's court meeting, so the ministers all came together. Headed by Prime Minister Sun Hong, they sat separately. Although their expressions are silent, what they think in their hearts is wonderful in their own way.

Several things have happened one after another in the past few days, although many people in Chang'an still don't know the details, but for most of the courtiers in the court, they have already understood it from different channels.

Some irrelevant people think a little simply, and they don't worry about it. In their minds, no matter how serious the trouble is as a courtier, as long as they wait until His Majesty the Emperor personally expresses his position, they can naturally distinguish who is right and who is wrong. Such an attitude can be regarded as a way for them to be officials. Being impartial and following the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor will not be wrong after all!

Unlike these centrists, there are those who are already involved in certain forces, and their emotions are much more complicated. After all, this matter is extraordinary, to put it mildly, it is related to everyone's career path and glory and wealth. To put it seriously, it is a major event in the success or failure of the family!

It was in this kind of heartfelt affair that the Great Pilgrimage began. After Prime Minister Gongsun Hong simply reported a few court affairs that he had handled during the emperor's retreat, the emperor nodded his head to indicate that he knew, and then Gongsun Hong retreated to his seat, lowered his head and closed his eyes.

No one knows that under the calm appearance of this prime minister at this moment, there is an anxious heart. He didn't know what would happen later, so he could only pray to God secretly not to involve his Gongsun Hong! This old bone of his own can't withstand such a big storm anymore.

Prime Minister Sun Hong is an old fox. Just half a month ago, he had already petitioned the emperor for the third time, begging to resign from the post of prime minister, beg for bones, and go home to retire. The reason for doing this is because of his sensitive sense of touch, and he smelled the waves that were about to rise early.

Although he is old, he is not faint, and the interaction and alliance of many forces between the DPRK and China cannot escape the eyes of Prime Minister Sun Hong. He had a feeling that the storm would be very big this time, and his days as a peaceful prime minister might come to an end. And it is very likely that you will be dragged into the water, and if you are not careful, it will be a catastrophe!

Prime Minister Sun Hong didn't want to be the last "backstabber", so he chose to quit the court to ensure the stability of the rest of his life. It's just that the emperor won't let him go so easily, and he won't want to pick on him until he finds a suitable person to replace him.

When Gongsun Hong was thinking wildly, he heard that the emperor seemed to suddenly remember, and casually asked the attendant standing in front of the hall on the side.

"Han Yan came back last night to report, saying that Changle Houyuan had come back and wanted to come to the palace to see him. It's just that it's getting late, and I asked him to wait at the Chonghuamen Palace...... Why didn't you see his shadow in the court? ”

There was a sudden silence up and down the Hanyuan Palace. Today's rotating attendant is the newly hired Zhu Maichen. He heard the emperor's interrogation and hurriedly bowed down to answer.

"Your Majesty! Changle Hou returned to the court as a general who was on a foreign expedition, and according to the rules of the imperial court, he could not casually go to the court by himself without the official permission of His Majesty the Emperor. ”

There is nothing wrong with this sentence. The Han Dynasty has always had such rules, but no one said it casually. The Emperor nodded, then commanded.

"Now go outside and preach the edict, let him go to the temple to see him...... Oh, and that's also, summoning the Marquis Li Xuanji to come with him. ”

The hearts of the military officials above Hanyuan Hall were tight, and they all knew that the show was about to begin. couldn't help but cheer up, secretly guessing how the emperor would judge right and wrong and settle the matter later.

didn't wait long, and the figure of the young marquis, who was once very familiar, appeared in front of everyone. It's just that to everyone's surprise, he didn't wear a formal court dress, but a white dress, and walked in with a calm expression.

Emperor Liu Che sat on the throne of the high Nine Dragon Steps, watching Yuan Zhao walk into the door of the main hall, the morning sun sprinkled behind him, and the vigorous aura between heaven and earth seemed to be one with this young man who couldn't see anything abnormal from his appearance, and he couldn't tell why he felt this way, but it was so strong at this moment.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, once upon a time, Yuan Zhao, who was still a teenager, also walked in from the same place with sunlight like this. That was when he first met him. Time passes, people are things...... He is still the emperor, and he is still his most powerful minister, but the years in between seem to alienate many things and become a little strange.

"Chen Yuanzhao is returning from the order, and he has come to the court today to meet His Majesty!"

After a few months, when he finally stood in the center of power in the Han Empire again, in the majestic Weiyang Palace Hanyuan Palace, Yuan Zhao's expression was still calm and peaceful. The wind and sand of the battlefield and the continuous months of hard work made his face look a little thin, but standing here at this moment, the dignified momentum did not seem abrupt at all, and in the eyes of everyone, it seemed that he had always been here and had never left.

It's a real aura that not everyone has. In contrast, the Nine Gate Generals, who walked in with him a few steps away, although he was burly and tall, not many people's eyes seemed to notice him.

"Yuan Qing worked hard! It doesn't have to be too polite. Ha ha! This hard work is high, and I have made great achievements, and I must reward ...... well. ”

Before the emperor's reward could be spoken, he suddenly saw the general in front of the Nine Dragons Steps, pushing the golden mountain and turning over the jade pillar, shouting with grief and indignation.

"Your Majesty, I will participate in the long music waiting for Yuan Zhao at the end! This man is arrogant and unruly, and there are three major sins...... There is no forgiveness for all sins! ”
