Lu Yan was quite happy when he saw Liu Ying agree, and immediately knelt down and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your understanding, tomorrow Weichen will repatriate his wife and two sons, so that the ancestors of the Lu ancestral hall will not complain about the unfilial piety of the ministers." ”

"The first emperor ruled the world with filial piety, and the teacher was pleased to have this heart, but the teacher was meritorious in the Han Dynasty, how could the heirs not split the soil and inherit the ancestral industry, so I should be named Lu Yuan as a marquis." Liu Ying said quite seriously.

"If Your Majesty really has filial piety, you should uphold the will of the first emperor, when the first emperor went on the expedition, he once said that those who are not meritorious should not be crowned marquis, and if you want to come to Lu Yuan when he is young, what merit is there, he should be a concubine." Lu Yan said with some prevarication.

Liu Ying hesitated in her heart, and said after a long time: "Since this is the case, the matter of Lu Yuan's marquis will be discussed later, and in addition, I will send someone to escort my aunt's spirit card." ”

Lu Yan listened, his face was quite pleased, "Thank you for your kindness, this is not a place to talk after all, please move back to the palace, and the ministers will take care of everything." ”

How can I say that Liu Ying is also the emperor now, and he can't mourn here, after all, the country still has affairs to deal with, so he bowed and retired.

In the Changle Palace, Empress Lu heard that Liu Ying was also a state minister, and she went to the school palace to see the funeral without permission, and she was quite unhappy.

After Liu Ying returned to Weiyang Palace that day, she was called by the Empress Dowager Lu, and after the mother and son finished the ceremony, Liu Ying personally handed over the tea, "What is the matter with the queen mother?" Liu Ying saw that Mrs. Lu was embarrassed, and said in a low voice.

"The queen mother asks you, is it possible for a king of a country to leave the palace and go to the palace to visit the woman's funeral before the court is finished today?" Empress Dowager Lu said quite seriously.

"Teacher Chenshi will go to the court in the future, and the sons and daughters are worried, so they go to visit, as the so-called master and apprentice, monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons must all act respectfully, and the sons and daughters are just following the example." Liu Ying hurriedly explained.

Seeing that her explanation made some sense, Empress Dowager Lu couldn't refute it for a while, so she immediately changed the topic and said: "The sister of the auxiliary prince died, what arrangements are there, or is there something to ask you for?" ”

Seeing this, Liu Ying's face hesitated, "This? However, there is one thing, the teacher hopes that I will allow his wife and children to go to Linzi to keep a vigil for the Lu ancestral hall. ”

"What a mess! When the first emperor was there, he established a school palace and raised his children, what was the purpose, all for his family to stay in Chang'an, but now the first emperor died not long ago, you actually promised to repatriate his family, it was really nonsense! Empress Dowager Lu pointed to Liu Ying's nose and said.

When the first emperor died and was not mourned, Lu Yan stood up with righteousness and awe-inspiring to stop the indiscriminate killing of heroes, which made Lu Pheasant trust him, but his merits were more than the three dukes, and the power leaned towards the government and the opposition, so he had to guard against it, and now Lu Yan wanted to repatriate his children, which made Lu Pheasant worried.

Thinking that the ancestors of the court are all Lu Yan's henchmen, even if Xiao He usually respects him for three points, if he uses the death of the first emperor not long ago to seek the dynasty to usurp the country, their mother and son must be sacrifices.

"But the sons have allowed them to go to the country, and the king has no jokes, and please don't be suspicious." Liu Ying said timidly.

Lu Pheasant snorted coldly: "You don't have any jokes? Can it be compared to the Han Dynasty, Ru will summon the king of Pingnan tomorrow, and the mourning family will personally stop it, and take the opportunity to seal Lu Yuan as a marquis, so that he cannot go to the country, as for Lu Yun's mother and son, don't worry about it. ”

"The son obeys the order of the queen mother, but the teacher's loyalty can be learned from the world, and I hope that the queen mother will not make the court ministers turn their faces because of this." Liu Ying said very directly, Lu Pheasant heard this, and bowed slightly, these things naturally don't need Liu Ying to teach him.

In the early morning of the next day, Lu Yan was just about to pack his luggage for his family, when he heard that Lu Pheasant was calling, as an auxiliary political officer, no matter how small the state affairs were, they were also big things, and no matter how big the family affairs were, they were also small things.

In Changle Palace, Lu Pheasant had already prepared the delicacies, and Lu Yan did not come alone, but also brought his son Lu Yuan, the two of them finished saluting and sat separately, although Lu Yuan was only eight or nine years old, but he knew the etiquette.

Seeing this, Lu Pheasant said very happily: "Yuan'er is also here, come here to do it, let the mourning family see if Yuan'er has grown taller." ”

Lu Yuan immediately bowed and saluted: "The Empress Dowager, the grass people are lowly bodies, and they dare not come closer, for fear of tarnishing the appearance of the mother of the country, and it is an honor for the grass people to be in front of the palace today." ”

Seeing that Lu Yuan would say like this, Lu Pheasant was very satisfied in his heart, "The auxiliary government has his son, and he is worthy of this life, but he has no official position, it is a pity, if he stays in the palace, how about accompanying the king?" ”

"Thank you for the love of the Queen Mother, this son is young, although he is knowledgeable, but he does not understand the government, so as not to play with His Majesty, mislead the country and the people, and become a sinner for thousands of years." Lu Yan hurriedly explained.

Lu Yuan behaved very decently, but it made Lu Pheasant even more worried, since he was a child, how to grow up, if he was not taught, it would inevitably lead to chaos in the future, if he was let go, it would be like a tiger returning to the mountain.

"When the first emperor was there, Li Sheng died early, and he was meritorious to the Han Dynasty, so he named his son as a marquis, and now the auxiliary government is the country and the people, and the heirs have not been sealed, and they have never been crowned as Shang, so how about inheriting the great cause of the public and canonizing the Marquis of Linzi Hui?" Lu Pheasant said slowly.

didn't wait for Lu Yan to speak, but Lu Yuan preemptively said: "The grass people have no merit to the country, and they dare not be entitled, they only want to be like their father, teach and learn etiquette, and educate talents for the Han Dynasty, and hope that the Queen Mother will take back her life, so as not to spread it outside the palace, and disrespect the will of the first emperor in her words." ”

These words were exquisite, Lu Pheasant was a little ashamed when he heard it, and when Lu Yan saw this, he immediately said: "Yuan'er, go out and wait for your father, don't walk around." ”

Lu Yuan didn't know what to mean, so he had no choice but to retreat from the palace, Lu Yan knew in his heart that his son seemed to be a little too much this time, which would only make Lu Pheasant more suspicious.

"Why did the auxiliary political prince take Yuan'er, is there something wrong?" Lu Pheasant also asked blankly.

Lu Yan thought for a while, and then said: "Feichen praises the dog, what does the Queen Mother think?" Please also tell Wechen truthfully. ”

"Yuan'er is intelligent, eloquent, and serious, but he is a great talent, not a flattery of the mourning family, and this son's talent will never lose to the auxiliary political prince in the future." Lu Pheasant said very seriously.

Lu Yan bowed, "The minister also thinks so, so he sent it back to his hometown, not any prince and marquis, if this son enters the official, it is inevitable not to control the court, Shang Zhi Yiyin, Zhou Zhi Ji Dan, Qin Zhi Li Si are all virtuous and talented, and the ministers are not like this, but their hearts are not right, and they want to mess up the Han family. ”

"Now the Queen Mother is a minister, so she retains this son, if the Queen Mother is ten thousand years old, Your Majesty is weak, and she is appointed to be among the three princes and nine kings, wouldn't it be a fire."

"The queen mother thinks that the minister is to protect herself, so she sends her family away, but in fact, the minister just wants to send Lu Yuan away, so as not to disturb the society, in the future, the minister is old, and he can return to his hometown alone.

Lu Pheasant was beside him, nodding frequently, "The auxiliary political prince is really far-sighted, and the mourning family is almost wrong to blame the adults." ”
