Su Ren wanted to go to court, and the emperor personally named him. Since Su Ren became an official, there is neither an office nor an important errand, so Su Ren and these people never have to go to the court, but will only go to the palace with wine and meat to chat and fart with the emperor Liu Che when the emperor is happy.

It was still dark, and he was woken up by Dong Qian, and Su Ren really didn't want to get up. The most annoying thing is to get up early in the morning, let him not sleep all night, get up early in the morning is the same as asking for his life. Even coaxed and persuaded him, he finally pulled up from the bed. Without waiting for Dong Qian to put on Su Ren's clothes, she leaned against the wall and snored.

Huang 13 and Manniu were ready to wait at the door, Su Ren yawned and looked up, at most four watches, the moon was still overhead. He abandoned his horse and got into the cart to continue his dream. In the midst of the swaying, Su Ren was half-asleep in the car, when suddenly there was a noise, and the carriage stopped.

Huang 13 opened the curtain of the car: "Sir, it's here!" ”

Su Ren nodded slightly: "Do you want to go in now?" ”

"It doesn't seem to be necessary, there are still many people in front of the palace gate, all waiting to open the door."

"Oh, then don't bother me, and call me when you can go in."

Su Ren's carriage stopped relatively far, and a group of people at the gate of the palace didn't see it when he first came. When a sharp-eyed official found out, he immediately reported to the prime minister Tian Wei at the front. Tian Wei was standing alone beside the car with his eyes closed, and when he heard the official's words, he opened his eyes and looked at Su Ren.

Han Anguo came to Tian Wei's side and saluted first: "Prime Minister, it seems that something big has happened today. ”

"Hmm!" Tian Wei hummed and stopped talking.

Han Anguo said again: "But what about the King of Huainan? ”

Tian Wei slowly opened his eyes and glanced at Han Anguo: "What do you say?" Can you write the note you wrote last night? ”

Han Anguo hurriedly took out a few pages from his arms: "It's been written, please take a look at it." ”

Tian Wei didn't answer, nodded slightly, and closed his eyes again.

Taiwei Zhuang Qingzhai also saw Su Ren's carriage, and he was now alone. The old ministers in the past thought that he had taken refuge in His Majesty and did not associate with him. The new minister in the back felt that he was the empress dowager's person, and he was also the person left by the emperor to preserve the empress dowager's face, and he disdained to get too close to Zhuang Qingzhai. Therefore, when he went to court, there was no one beside him, standing alone, especially lonely.

The ministers were huddled in a heap, turning their heads to look at Su Ren's carriage from time to time, and then muttered a few words. When someone walks by them, they can always hear a cough. As a result, the constant coughing sound spread back and forth among the courtiers, as if they were sick at the same time.

Several more carriages arrived, and Li Danghu, Wei Qing, Gongsun He, and Gongsun Ao all parked their carriages next to Su Ren's carriage. Several people got out of the carriage as promised, and as soon as they got into Su Ren's carriage, there was no sound.

The sky in the east appeared white, the gate of Jianzhang Palace was squeaked open, and the guards on duty rushed out from inside and lined up on both sides. The imperial historian on duty shouted for everyone to line up, and prepared to enter the palace under the guidance of the third duke. Su Ren and the others came out of the carriage at this time, and when the wind blew, people with good noses could smell the slightest smell of wine.

has never been to the court, and what a few people do makes Yushi look uncomfortable. Finally stood in the line, and the net whip had sounded. The mighty procession began to move inside. Su Ren's official positions are comparable, so they naturally stand relatively close. is also because the official positions of several people are relatively small, so they stand relatively backward. Along the avenue into the Jianzhang Palace, at the gate ** out of his sword, took off his shoes and entered the gate.

It was the first time to build the Zhang Palace in this way, and then I felt the huge size of the Jianzhang Palace. After the courtiers of hundreds of people walked in, they were not crowded at all, but the Jianzhang Palace was even larger.

Su Ren didn't hold his hands and lower his head like others, and just followed in. He held his head high, looked left and right with a pair of eyes, either looking at the might of the general of the station hall or the luxurious decoration of the Jianzhang Palace, and even reached out to touch the paintings on the pillars on both sides, completely treating himself as a tourist. It wasn't until the imperial history on duty was about to crack his eyes that he stopped.

In the early days of the Han Dynasty, officials did not have a unified official uniform, and when they went to the court, they were given a cushion to sit with the emperor and govern. It was not until the middle of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that this situation was broken. Su Ren naturally did not have official uniforms, and all the courtiers wore colorful clothes, with a variety of clothing styles and colors, just like a play on the stage.

What made Su Yi feel free was that Emperor Liu Che had already sat in his place early, not like on TV, when a eunuch shouted His Majesty to arrive, and then walked out from behind the screen. It's just that Liu Che sits taller than everyone else, and the light is good, and he looks extraordinary.

At the beginning, the deliberations were presided over by Prime Minister Tian Wei, which was nothing more than the old court tunes such as where there was drought and where there was a disaster, and then different people came up with guidelines for Liu Che to refer to. The emperor said that there was a can, and the matter was settled. One thing after another was endless, Su Ren was drowsy when he listened, and it happened that there was a pillar behind him, so he moved a little, leaned his shoulders on the pillar and really fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly felt that someone had pushed me, Su Ren woke up in shock, turned his head and asked Gongsun He beside him, "What's wrong?" ”

Gongsun He smiled slightly: "Your Majesty called you!" ”

"Ahh Oh! Su Ren hurriedly looked at Liu Che at the top: "Your Majesty, I don't know what to call the minister?" ”

A word that made everyone look at him. Liu Che coughed: "Su Qing, you once sent an envoy to Huainan on behalf of King Hengshan, can you tell me what you think of King Huainan?" ”

Only then did Su Ren understand why Liu Che named him to go to court, for this reason. The most important issue in today's early dynasty should be the matter of the king of Huainan, although there are people from the Huainan country who testify to the fault of the king of Huainan, there must be manpower in the court to protect it. As a referee, the emperor has a lot of things that he can't say, so he Su Ren is the mouth of Emperor Liu Che, and these words have to be said by him Su Ren.

"Ahem!" Su Ren coughed: "If you want to talk about the king of Huainan, the minister can summarize it in two words." ”

"Oh? Those two words? ”

"Taoguang is obscure, waiting for the opportunity to move!"

Liu Che read it again, stretched out his fingers and didn't know how to bend down. Some people in the hall had already laughed, and the one who laughed the loudest was Gongsun He beside Su Ren.

Tian Wei also smiled: "Su Zhonglang's two words are really big enough." ”

Su Ren's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he looked at everyone's smiling faces: "Taoguang is obscure, and it is regarded as yin; Waiting for the opportunity to move, seeing it as a risk, doesn't it add up to just two words insidious? Liu An, the king of Huainan, sent his daughter Liu Ling to Chang'an ten years ago to make friends with the powerful, dare to ask who of you here has not visited the blueberry garden? In the past ten years, the whole country of Huainan has been even more smoky, only the Huainan king's private soldiers have 8,000 people, and they are well-equipped and brave, dare to ask a prince and king who has no ambition to do this? ”

There was silence in the main hall. Everyone knows these things, but no one wants to pierce this layer of window paper, watching Liu An, the king of Huainan, grow stronger day by day, although he is worried, he doesn't think about how to deal with it. In the eyes of the courtiers, as long as their own interests are not involved, it doesn't matter who the one he sits on the top is, not to mention Liu An's various empty promises and tangible benefits that make it difficult for them to parry.

"This time Lei was just an introduction to Liu Jian, Lieutenant Duan Hong has been to Huainan, he also knows what Huainan is like, why didn't Your Majesty summon Duan Hong to ask?"

"Your Majesty!" Tian Wei finally couldn't help it, and without waiting for Su Ren to finish speaking, he immediately jumped out: "Your Majesty, Su Zhonglang has a gap with the King of Huainan, it may be inappropriate to slander the princes and kings like this, please condemn Your Majesty!" ”

"You fart!" Su Ren stepped forward, grabbed Tian Wei's collar, and glared at him viciously.

Tian Wei was taken aback by Su Ren and looked at Su Ren in horror: "You, what are you going to do?" ”

"Humph! You have received 5,000 gold from the King of Huainan plus 30 beauties and 1,000 good fields outside the city, and you want your niece to be the future crown princess, hehe! Don't think no one knows? People in this world are doing things and the sky is watching, really let King Huainan replace Your Majesty, the first thing to clean up is a guy like you! ”

"Uncle Guo, or the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, look at the you did! Just a person like you, Wen can't settle the country, Wu can't fight on the battlefield, Your Majesty let you be the prime minister, that's filial piety, at other times, you are not the younger brother of the Queen Mother, you are not even as good as the gangsters on the street, and collusion with the King of Huainan is okay, what else do you say Your Majesty has no heirs, and the throne will be Liu An's after Your Majesty's thousand years, let me ask you Your Majesty's Spring and Autumn Geometry, Liu An's Spring and Autumn Geometry? I'm afraid that Liu An's bones have melted, and I can't wait for Your Majesty Qianqiu! ”

"And you! A person with five people and six people, who dares to stand up and say that he has a clear conscience about the big man? Su Ren threw Tian Wei and pointed at the ministers below: "Look at your appearance, Your Majesty didn't clean you up, that is Your Majesty's mercy, if you put it in Gaozu, all of them are dead people who destroyed the door and raided the family, and you people are ministers in the same palace, my Su Ren's face is burning in panic!" ”

Liu Che was shocked by Su Ren's generous statement, and he didn't react for a long time, staring blankly and silently, letting Su Ren make a big speech in the court.

Regardless of whether he knew or didn't know him, Su Ren scolded indiscriminately when he caught him, and even Ji Di, Zhuang Qingzhai and others who were not Liu An's gang were all scolded. Everyone who only scolded glared at Su Ren angrily, and they couldn't wait to step forward and strangle Su Ren to death.

Gongsun He grew his mouth in surprise, and asked Wei Qing beside him in a low voice: "Brother Su, what's wrong today?" Crazy? ”

Wei Qing kept his face calm and said nothing.

When Su Ren was tired of scolding, he sat on the ground with his legs shrunk, and hugged his fists at Liu Che: "Your Majesty, these wastes are useless to keep, just pull them out and kill them, if Your Majesty is disgusted with dirty hands, Su Ren is willing to share your Majesty's worries." ”
