Text Chapter 101 The End of Ambition Whose Palace
The night shadow is deep, the long street is lonely, and the carriage moves slowly. A horse is an ordinary horse, a carriage is an ordinary car, and a person who sits in a carriage with his eyes closed is not an ordinary person.
Fengshen is handsome and elegant, and Liu An, the king of Huainan, was a merry boy when he was young. Although he is now past middle age, the graceful atmosphere formed by long-term pampering and pampering is unconsciously impressive.
As the grandson of Han Gaozu, as the emperor's uncle today, his status is not disrespectful. And occupy the land of Jianghuai Fenghao, tear the soil and seal the king, inherit it from generation to generation, and among the vassal states, the country is the most prosperous.
In the nearly 20 years since the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms" subsided, it has become the chief spokesperson of the vassal states.
Such a status can be regarded as one of the few people in the world who are qualified to guide the country.
However, if a person has no foresight, he will have near-term worries. The lessons of Wu and Chu are not far away, and in some things, Liu An has deep thoughts in his heart.
At the beginning of the founding of the country, because he learned the lesson of the fall of the Qin Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu divided the world and guarded the Quartet with his nephews surnamed Liu, the original intention was to make Liu's country more solid. But what he didn't expect was that the future emperor would have deeper and deeper contradictions with these princes and kings, and instead became an unstable factor that threatened the rule of Sheji.
In fact, such a thing is unavoidable in every dynasty, and the most fundamental reason is that the throne on the ninefold high level in the Weiyang Palace is too tempting!
One word, looking down on the world, waving his hand, the wind and clouds are thundering!
What man wouldn't want to have such a majestic style? How can he, Liu An, be an exception. What's more, the enmity of his father's generation is never forgotten in his heart.
Some of the news revealed to him by Wu'an Hou Tianjun tonight made him feel very uneasy!
During this period of time, the turmoil in the court was not quiet, the minister abdicated, and the emperor began to openly select the world's talents.
So after he received a secret message from Liu Jian, the prince of Chang'an, he keenly felt that there might be an opportunity to take advantage of it, so he came to Chang'an in advance to see the reality and reality.
And after the Chinese New Year, he was not in a hurry to leave, but stayed for the time being on the grounds of nostalgia for Chang'an, just to see the changes this time.
There are still many courtiers who are secretly friendly with him, some because of old friendships, and some because of greed for money, so he has also gotten some news from many sources recently, and he already has a vague guess in his heart.
As for paying some gold and silver treasures for this, is that a thing? These are the last things he lacks as King Huainan! He has a mountain of copper and a sea of salt, does he still care about this little thing?
In his opinion, it was worth it to exchange those useless things for the situation in the court and top-secret information that he wanted to know the most!
And the news and speculation revealed to him by Taiwei Tian Jue tonight are undoubtedly the most valuable. For this reason, when he left, he left a box full of jade pearls to the Wu'an Hou Mansion. Tian Jue's old face, which had been gloomy for many days, rarely showed a satisfied smile.
It's just that...... Speaking of treasures, he remembered the car that he had given to Liuyun Gang Leader Guo Xie last time. It's a pity! The thing was not done, but the people were beheaded, and a huge gang disappeared in a short period of time.
"That little Changle Hou, this king wants him to have comprehensive information, and he will do it in a few days!" Huainan Dynasty commanded in a low voice outside the carriage.
The man named Shao Gongman hurriedly agreed, he came and went to Chang'an many times, and accompanied the little prince in Chang'an for another half a year, and the relationship between them has become a little familiar. Moreover, the hundreds of Huainan spies lurking in Chang'an are also led by him, so these things are naturally handled by him.
Wei Tuo, who was walking in front of him, lightly advised: "Just inquire secretly, don't alarm him." That person's cultivation ...... Unfathomable, be careful! ”
Shao Gongman was slightly stunned, what kind of conceited person Wei Tuo was, the people in their Huainan Mansion knew very well. Listening to the meaning of his words, he was very jealous of that Changle Hou, could it be that the little Hou Ye was so powerful?
Before he could ask a question, he heard Liu Jian, the son of the world, snort coldly beside him.
"What kind of Changle Hou is this, when I first arrived in Chang'an last autumn, I had a relationship with him. At that time, I wanted to teach them a good lesson with the second child of the Tian family, but I was disturbed by the old guy Jidi, hum! Later, I wanted to go to their teahouse again, let them know something powerful, but I haven't been able to get it, but today my father mentioned it, but it reminds me that I will go to let them suffer some hardships another day! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was reprimanded by King Huainan who was sitting in the carriage.
"How many times have I told you a long time ago, don't underestimate the heroes of the world! There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this world, and some of them are powerful characters. If you don't get rid of your arrogant nature, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later! ”
Liu Jian was still a little afraid of his father after all, and seeing that he was a little angry, he hurriedly bowed his head and admitted his mistake, saying that he would seriously correct it.
"But then again, you still need brains to do big things. No matter how powerful a person's martial arts are, what use is it in the face of resourcefulness? Therefore, if you have time, you still have to ask a few gentlemen in the house for advice, learn more strategies, and when I hand over this position to you in the future, I will rest assured. ”
Liu Jian said again and again that their father and son had something in common in this regard, and he also agreed with this in his heart. And Wei Tuo, who was expressionless, was very unimpressed.
Because, there is a saying in this world that says, "In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies and tricks are scum!" ”
However, Wei Tuo naturally wouldn't say this sentence in a big way now. These days, in his heart, he will never forget the power of the sword on the snowfield that day.
Later, he once quietly went to that place to see the scene. The outline of the traces left behind made him feel horrified! Only a martial artist who has reached his cultivation level will truly understand what such a powerful sword qi means.
He also once doubted that it was not within human reach, however, he trusted his own eyes more. That sword like a rainbow was something he witnessed from a distance, and at that time, he was shocked and actually affected his own qi, and his qi and blood were surging and he was secretly injured!
How did that little marquis do it? In the old legends of the Spring and Autumn Period, there are a few people who have reached the point of channeling with swords, is there such a person in the world today?
Look at what your prince will do in the future...... Wei Tuo had a faint worry in his heart. If Changle Hou is a friend or foe, it will be a big trouble, and it may be a very troublesome thing in the future.
On the street, there was no one at this time, and the carriage gradually moved away, and finally gradually disappeared into the darkness.......
But tonight, the conversation between father and son in Wu'anhou's mansion was a different scene.
Wu'an Hou Tian Jue has two sons, but Tian Shaoqi, the young son who is spoiled by him, is not a weapon, he is a famous gentleman in Chang'an City, and he belongs to the role of the mud that can't support the wall, so he had to go with him.
What made him have high hopes was this eldest son, Tian Shaozhong. Tian Shaozhong has a similar temperament to his father, and they both belong to the scheming generation, so Tian Jue usually discusses any major matters with him.
"Father, will your speculation be true this time?"
After sending off Queen Huainan, the father and son sat back in the living room, still retreating from the subordinates and continuing to talk secretly.
Tian Jue took a sip of tea and moistened his throat, because he was too excited to talk to King Huainan tonight, he didn't care about how much tea he drank.
"Humph! Although I have been at home for the past two months, how can every move inside and outside the court escape my eyes? He snorted heavily, a little smug in his eyes.
"Father's wisdom naturally goes without saying, and he has always been insightful about these things!"
Although this was a compliment from his son, Tian Jue was still very useful in his heart. I couldn't help but brush my beard with my hand, and there was a slight smile on my face.
"It seems that the emperor is still a little wary of me. Our majesty is too shrewd, and he doesn't want to repeat the mistakes of the past! ”
"Father, what do you mean by that?" Tian Shaozhong heard him say this, but he was a little confused.
"Dou Ying has been in charge of the government for many years, and as the nephew of the Empress Dowager Dou, this is a relative! Haha, there is such a minister in the court, and if the Son of Heaven wants to make a difference, he is always a little constrained, and he has no choice but to do it. ”
Tian Shao nodded emphatically, he somewhat understood.
"What does my father mean...... We're also relatives? ”
"The children can be taught! Exactly. With the queen mother in the palace, if I take over the position of prime minister of Dou Ying now, wouldn't it be similar to the previous situation? Although the Empress Dowager will not be as strong as the Empress Dowager, there are some things that the Emperor thinks differently from us. ”
"I see! The father's seclusion at home during this period of time was deliberately done by the Son of Heaven. Presumably he was weighing the pros and cons during this time, right? ”
"Not bad! This is one of the reasons. But there is a deeper reason...... Can I ever guess?"
Seeing Tian Jue's elegant gaze, Tian Shaozhong thought hard for a long time, but finally shook his head.
"Father, please!"
"Didn't my son notice it? Recently, there have been various indications that in the military aspect, the Son of Heaven will make a big move! ”
Tian Shaozhong was taken aback, could there be a war? He really wasn't aware of that.
"Although it is a speculation for my father, it should be eight or nine inseparable, I have already told King Huai'an about this before, and his analysis is the same as mine after listening to it, this matter should be confirmed."
"There are frequent movements of garrisons in various places, and although I have bypassed me, the lieutenant in charge of military affairs, it is not difficult for me to get detailed information. Hehe! ”
"That'...... Mobilizing the army at this time, is it to start a war with the Huns? Hearing such a thing, Tian Shaozhong was still a little excited.
"It should be aimed at the Huns, but it is not known how it was intended to be operated. This is another reason for the father to be at home for a while. ”
"Oh? Since it is a war, of course, it is inevitable to discuss and arrange with the important ministers of the court, why should you bypass your father, who is the captain of the court? ”
"Not only me, but also those old ministers don't know about this matter. Because, this operation should have been a plan secretly formulated by the emperor and a few close associates around him. ”
"This ...... How so! Would the Son of Heaven really do it so rashly? Even Tian Shaozhong has already seen the inappropriateness of this matter.
"He'll do it! Ever since he was a teenager, I could see this kind of character in him. Rigid and self-serving, in a hurry! The Empress Dowager has just relinquished power, and when he first took charge of the government, it is the time when he needs to show his wisdom and martial arts, hehe, as long as he thinks it is feasible and will achieve great benefits, he will do it at all costs at this time! ”
"That'...... Tonight, my father told the king of Huainan what was the intention of knowing this?" Tian Shaozhong admired his father's sharp eyes more and more.
"King Huainan...... Ha ha! His ambition was known to his father. If there was a great opportunity in front of him now, would he not take it? ”
When Tian Jue said this, a grim look appeared on his face.
“…… Just appointed the son of the as the crown prince, presumably the anger of the queen and the eldest princess is already raging, right? And the war in northern Xinjiang has been ignited again...... King Huainan took the opportunity to attack again! This situation will be very lively at that time! Hahaha......!"
The night breeze rises, and the curtain of the palace is lifted, touching the mechanism. Jin Ge Iron Horse, sword fighting, how many loess white bones are about to be buried, and a few heroic chivalrous spirits are added to the plain, Pegasus is rushing to the sky, who is a young man!
