Chapter 470: The predecessor of the Kuaitong Hall is preserved
Liu Bang was overjoyed when he learned that Chen Ping had brought Kuaitong back, and he wanted to see what Han Xin meant by not listening to Kuaitong's words. org
After Kuaitong arrived in Chang'an, he first moved into the school palace, as for the matter, Chen Ping still needed to report first, taking advantage of this time, Lu Yan did not dare to delay, and immediately went to Mingtang to see Kuaitong.
Mingtang is the place where the palace entertains guests, when Lu Yan arrived, Kuaitong was enjoying the plum blossoms in the courtyard, "Mr. is really leisurely, there is still time to enjoy the plums, you can know that Chang'an is now nine deaths." ”
Kuai Tong looked back and saw that it was Lu Yan, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, "It turned out to be the prince, and he was polite, could it be that the Hou Ye was just the head of the palace in the Xue Palace, and he didn't participate in any emperor's affairs?" ”
"That's right, this is the best way to protect Mingzhe, even though I have done this part, then Lu Pheasant still doesn't worry about me, and sooner or later I want to get rid of it." Lu Yan said with a sigh.
Kuai Tong bowed slightly, "The prince has won the trust of the Han Emperor, so naturally there is nothing to do, but I don't understand that the prince is in Chang'an, why didn't he protect the Marquis of Huaiyin, and let him die in vain at the hands of Lu Pheasant." ”
"Mr. has lived in Linzi for a long time, how do you know that Han Xin is dead, although some things have happened, it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false, but Mr. does not have to worry about this matter, and he can deal with tomorrow's things without worries." Lu Yan said slowly.
After listening to it, Kuaitong seemed to understand a little truth, "The prince is really powerful, Han Xin has no regrets in this life, I don't know how to answer if he will go to the palace tomorrow?" ”
"Nature is simple, in the world, there are many princes and kings, and naturally choose the lord to serve, just this sentence, Mr. can be worry-free." Lu Yan said very confidently, Kuaitong bowed slightly, and his face looked a little suspicious.
The school palace did not mention it, and said that in the Weiyang Palace, Liu Bang had not yet seen Kuaitong, so Chen Ping had already come to report the affairs, and after the monarch and ministers finished the ceremony, Chen Ping first said: "Your Majesty, that Kuaitong has been brought back and is now staying in the school palace." ”
Liu Bang took a slight sip of warm tea, "That's fine, I'll bring it to the palace tomorrow to ask, Mr. is here, can I know what is the relationship between Han Xin and him?" What did Kuaitong say that made Han Xin regret it so much? ”
Chen Ping was beside him, silent, how could he say this matter casually, "Your Majesty, Kuaitong seems to want Han Xin to rebel, but Han Xin didn't listen, so Kuaitong feigned madness in Linzi. ”
"I see, I'm also a character, but I'm a little unstable in doing things, Han Xin can only be a general, not an emperor, I should be glad that Han Xin didn't rebel." Liu Bang said slowly.
"Yes, Han Xin was cultivated by King Pingnan at the beginning, how can he go against the wishes of King Pingnan, if it is not the queen, it can be regarded as a good thing for the monarch and ministers." Chen Ping deliberately whispered to observe Liu Bang's situation.
Liu Bang didn't say anything at the moment, just tidied up his clothes a little, and then said: "Tomorrow, I will bring Kuaitong to the discussion, and I want to see what explanation Kuaitong has." ”
In the early morning of the next day, Lu Yan, who was in the school palace, actually came with Kuaitong in person, since the Qin annihilation, many soldiers and sages around Lu Yan have died, and now in Lu Yan's opinion, if they can be saved, they will try not to be harmed.
Liu Bang couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Lu Yan come with Kuaitong, and after the monarchs and ministers of Weiyang Palace finished their ceremonies, Liu Bang first said: "King Pingnan has been teaching in the palace for a long time, and he has time to come to this palace, and I can't help but be surprised." ”
"As the co-lord of the world, it is natural for Ziyu to come to the court, Your Majesty does not need to be surprised, today he is just coming for the matter of Kuaitong." Lu Yan said very bluntly.
Liu Bang was originally a chivalrous man, and when he heard Lu Yan's answer, he was very happy in his heart, and immediately smiled: "Ziyu is teaching in the school palace today, and he is so uninhibited, I am really pleased, but the matter of Kuaitong still has to be made clear." ”
Kuaitong was also in the palace, and when he heard Liu Bang asking like this, he walked out directly, "Your Majesty has something to ask, please tell me in the palace, and the minister will never hide it." ”
Seeing this, Liu Bang couldn't help but be a little surprised, this Kuaitong was a criminal person, and he was so calm, which really made Liu Bang a little surprised, "Why did you say that King Han Xin of Qi was anti-Han in the first place?" ”
At this time, Lu Yan directly came out and said: "King Qiqi, as a good dog, naturally protects his master, at the beginning, Kuaitong didn't know that there was a Han, only knew that there was Qi, so he acted like this." ”
Liu Bang bowed slightly, as if he wanted to hear Kuaitong's positive answer, but Kuaitong was not ambiguous, and said very directly: "The Qin Dynasty lost the throne, making the Central Plains compete for the deer, and everyone in the world is fighting because of the emperor's throne, and the talented people get it first." The world is in turmoil, and the princes are scrambling to seize the position, but they have no opportunity and ability, is it because of this matter, can Your Majesty drive them all out? ”
"As King Pingnan said, at that time, the princes rose together, as a human minister, naturally helped their own masters, the original ministers did not know that there was Han, only knew that there was Qi, so they wanted Han Xin to be king, is there anything wrong with this? It's just that His Majesty is arbitrary, and he can't tolerate others in his heart. ”
"The identity of the minister, just like the Chu general, Your Majesty can't tolerate the Chu general in his eyes, and naturally he can't tolerate the micro minister, now the minister is in the palace, how to deal with it, please ask Your Majesty to speak."
After Liu Bang heard these remarks, he felt quite guilty in his heart, and now Kuaitong's situation is just like the situation of Ji Bu and Zhong Liwu at the beginning, if he is killed, it will be of no benefit to the country.
"When the prince helped Qi, Qin lost, and the world was in turmoil, so the princes occupied the land as the king, and it was natural for the prince to choose the lord in his heart, so there is today's difficulty."
"If Han Xin was anti-Han at the beginning, maybe it was the situation of three parts of the world, and it was natural for each to be its master, but now that the Qi country is no longer what it was today, it is a mistake in the public choice, how can I be killed by the public because of this, and today is peaceful, I will pardon the public and be innocent, but the public is willing to be an official of the Han Dynasty?" Liu Bang said slowly.
Kuai Tong saw Liu Bang's pardon, and sighed greatly in his heart, it seems that this Liu Bang is still very good at talking, if he immediately agrees to be an official in the Han Dynasty, there will inevitably be some villains.
So, Kuaitong said very seriously: "I served the Qi country at the beginning, but Han Xin didn't listen to me, so there is today's disaster, and I have nothing to worry about, I just want to go to General Han's ancestral hall to guard his soul, and I hope that Your Majesty will give me permission." ”
When Liu Bang heard this, he was very emotional, he didn't expect Han Xin to die, and this old man was still willing to guard his spirit, which shows his loyalty.
"Gong served the king of Qi at the beginning, I don't know that there is a difficulty today, but I am willing to guard his spirit, his heart is very expressible, I don't want to be strong, Gong is like this, I will be fulfilled with you, if you want to be an official in the court in the future, you can give Ming Pingnan Wang, Ziyu will arrange it, and it will never disappoint Gong." Liu Bang said indifferently.
Kuaitong's matter also came to an end, and later, he followed Cao Shen to eat and drink, anyway, Kuaitong's life was very good, at least because of this fame and fortune, but Lu Xuan's situation was not very smooth.
