"This word, if ordinary people measure this word, it is nothing, but you are a prince, it is very different. There is a little more big character in this Taizi, which indicates that the prince will be promoted a little more. The prince is not small, what is it to be promoted a little more? ”

Sima Ying thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Isn't the prince the emperor if he is a little older!" ”

"Exactly!" Liu Yuan lost no time in saying.

"Bold! Dare to test the words of this king, this king just wants to be a prince of peace, so he wrote a Taizi, don't misinterpret the meaning of this king. Sima Ying began to pretend again.

Liu Yuan knew that he had forgiven my sins just now, please allow me to finish speaking. ”

Sima Ying didn't want to listen to it, and said deliberately: "This king forgot, forgive you for your innocence, okay, I'll listen to what else you can pinch out." ”

"Lord Wang, the word "Tai" directly implies that you have the destiny of the Son of Heaven if you are a little older than the prince, and just now you casually said the sentence "My side is too low", which contains the future emperor title that you will soon assume. ”

Sima Ying didn't understand it even more, he said: "I just saw that the tea was wet with paper, it must be low on the table, so I casually said, "My side is too low", what is this, does this sentence also have other meanings, how can I ever ask for any name, even if you are not guilty, you can't say anything!" ”

Liu Yuan said: "Lord, everything is the will of heaven, whether it is from the hexagram or the word measurement, you have the order of the Son of Heaven, if you want to be the emperor, you are not the prince, then there is only one name that can allow you to ascend the throne, that is, what you call the younger brother!" ”

"How could I have said that my brother?! What does the younger brother mean, is it the emperor's younger brother, I can inherit if he doesn't do it? (Later, Sima Ying really became the emperor's younger brother, this is a later story, not to mention it for the time being.) Sima Ying was excited in her heart, after all, she was young and did not hide her words.

"Yes, that's what it means, although there is no such title as the emperor's brother from ancient times to the present, but it is logical for you. Just now you said that this is "too low", which corresponds to the will of God. ”

"I see, but he doesn't mean that, "too low" is not "too brother", Liu Yuan, this is just a play on words, what you said is too far-fetched." Sima Ying said.

"In any case, this is the will of heaven, and it indicates that the great cause of the prince will be accomplished."

"This king is happy and alive in the capital, and he doesn't have many soldiers in his hands, so he talks about a great cause."

"So the next official persuaded the prince to be better out of the town, so that he could have an army, calling for wind and rain, and seeing the prince of the state, Sima Teng, who lived freely, King Zhao also accumulated strength in Guanzhong, and his power has increased greatly in recent years, and now he is the most powerful in Luoyang, and the world will change in the future, what will the prince do to fight for the world? The prince has to think twice, if the prince has a place where we have five departments, Liu Yuan will definitely serve. ”

When Sima Ying saw Liu Yuan for the first time, he didn't want to talk to him about fighting for the world, let alone worrying about it, so he stopped and said, "Okay, I know." Liu Yuan, this is the end of today's private chat, and every sentence we say must not be leaked to the outside world. ”

Liu Yuan was overjoyed to see that his goal had been achieved, and said: "The lower official is just here to visit the prince, and the nephew Liu Yao also asks the prince to bother more, and the lower official will leave." ”

"Don't worry about this, come here, send Liu Dudu." Sima Ying said.

Meng Jiu came in to send Liu Yuan out of the house, and Sima Ying sat down to reflect on the name of the eldest brother just now.

The eldest brother, the elder brother and the last brother are righteous, but there is also the crown prince, although it is rumored that he is not the emperor's own son, but he is the prince of the country after all, how can it be my turn? I grew up with the crown prince since childhood, and he should be able to be a good emperor in his mind about the world, but anyway, if God gives me this opportunity to become the emperor's younger brother, I will definitely grasp it well, and collect the expectations of the people.

Just thinking about it, a person came in and said, "Lord Wang." ”

It was his think tank, Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi went to make the Yecheng County Decree on his recommendation, and he had to come back several times a month to see Sima Ying.

"Lu Zhi, you're here, sit down."

Sima Ying said Liu Yuan's visit in detail, and Lu Zhi said: "I have also heard the nursery rhyme that Liu Yuan said on the street, and the rumors of the prince's life experience should not be groundless. ”

"The prince's appearance, the courtiers all said that it was exactly the same as the emperor's grandfather, it seems that the rumors are true." Sima Ying said.

"Lord, Empress Jia and the crown prince will have a fight, none of us will help, just wait for the world to change, we will take the opportunity to start an incident."

"But we don't have any soldiers or horses."

"It's a good idea for Liu Yuan to suggest that you go out of town just now."

"But how could Jia Nanfeng agree to this king going out to guard the town?"

"Lord Wang, there are only two ways to achieve the goal, one is to cling to the Jia Party, and the other is to offend the Jia Party."

"How?"

"Lord Wang, clinging to the Jia Party is to take the initiative to show favor to Jia Mi, pay tribute to Empress Jia, and gain their trust, so that you can achieve the goal of leaving the town, but at the same time, there will be a disadvantage, that is, once Empress Jia and the prince lose the battle, we will also be implicated."

"Then what if you offend the Jia Party?"

"To offend the Jia Party is to find a chance to fight with Jia Mi, not to leave him a little affection, and not to take into account Empress Jia's face, and to stand on the side of the prince, so that Empress Jia will be afraid that the prince will spoil her big things in the capital, and she will definitely find an opportunity to transfer you out of Beijing."

"But if you stand on the side of the prince, if Empress Jia abolishes the prince in the future, will she settle accounts with us?"

"Lord, I'm afraid she doesn't have this opportunity, her subordinates think that even if Empress Jia wins for a while, it won't last long, and I don't know how many princes are staring at her behind her, I believe that there is no prince who doesn't want to be the emperor, can she have a good life? Before she settles accounts with us, we may be in a different position, and by then, we will have accumulated enough strength to compete with the princes. ”

"Okay, Lu Zhi, just do as you say."

Jia Nanfeng of Nangong, at the suggestion of Liu Zhen, decided to take the opportunity of the prince's wedding to grant amnesty to the world to show the queen's virtue.

In the morning of this day, Sima Ying came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, the prince is married, and he should give amnesty to the world to show my kindness." ”

Many courtiers were noncommittal.

Sima Cheng twisted his head, Jia Nanfeng didn't expect that someone had proposed this matter, but he saved his tongue, and he said two words to Sima Zhen: "It's feasible." ”

Sima Zhen said: "The prince's wedding, according to the system, an amnesty should be implemented, and I will play it accurately, and the court captain is Gu Rong to handle it." ”

Gu Rong said: "Your Majesty, the amnesty in the world is a beautiful thing, but there is one person who can't be pardoned?" ”

All the courtiers were puzzled, and Sima Zhen asked, "Who is Aiqing talking about?" ”
