Liu Bang rose from cloth, went to the tyranny of Qin, destroyed Qiang Chu, made the Central Plains seven-year rebellion gradually disappear, and established the Western Han Dynasty for 200 years, which can be said to be indispensable.

Gossip is scarce, Liu Bang died in Weiyang Palace that day, only Lu Pheasant and others knew, but Lu Pheasant did not mourn, so that both inside and outside the palace thought that Liu Bang was still there.

Lu Pheasant in the harem, immediately ordered someone to summon Zhao Yao and the judge of the food and others to discuss, the two because Liu Bang was in the Weiyang Palace, but also for a long time to enter the palace, now see Lu Pheasant to summon, there must be a big event, so I had to rush to the palace.

In the front hall of Changle Palace, the two of them finished the ceremony, and after reviewing their puzzled faces, they spoke first: "Queen Qiyu, Your Majesty is still in the palace today, we are discussing matters, I am afraid that something is wrong, and I ask the queen to order as soon as possible, and we can do it." ”

"Now that Your Majesty has died, I will consult with you and others on how to act." Lu Pheasant said very seriously.

Judging the food on his side, his face was terrified, "Empress Qiyu, such a major matter should not be discussed with us, but should be quickly summoned to the three princes and nine kings to discuss together, and then the crown prince will inherit the unification." ”

Lu Pheasant immediately waved his hand, "Today, the court is full of old ministers, forming a party and running a private business inside, holding heavy troops outside, the mourning family is not at ease, and wants to borrow the hand of the first emperor here to purge it, what do you think of it?" ”

Judging and thinking to himself, most of the old ministers in the court and China have made great contributions in the Chu and Han dynasties, if they are not eliminated now, and their power will be prosperous in the future, how can they have a place to stay, and they should be eliminated as soon as possible.

"In this case, we will follow the queen's orders, and the old ministers of the court, such as Wang Ling, Xiahou Ying, Zhou Bo, Cao Shen, Lu Yan and others, can control the government and others, so that they can be connected with the thieves, so that the power of the court and the central government can fall into the hands of the queen, and the Lu family will naturally prosper." Judging the food and saying it matter-of-factly.

These words made Lu Pheasant smile, "You will hide this matter for the time being, and in addition, you are not allowed to let the palace guards patrol back and forth in the near future, and wait for the mourning family to prepare an edict before doing other things." ”

The three of them calculated, and they were really afraid and happy, afraid of messing with power, happy that there was no opponent, and at this time the palace guard was Li Shang.

If you want to stop the guard patrol, you must pass through Li Shang, the two met, but Li Shang felt that there was something in his heart, and he was not allowed to let the guards patrol today, which was even more suspicious, and he thought that something must have happened in the palace.

Outside the Weiyang Palace, Li Shang's face was hesitant, and he spoke first: "The Tingwei Division is in charge of the criminal law and rewards, and he should live in the city, why did he come to this palace and want to cut off the contact between the guards, but he didn't rebel?" ”

When he heard this, he was shocked, "As a captain, he has no military power, how can he rebel, this is the queen's order, and he just listens to his dispatch." ”

"No matter what the reason is now, if there is no order from His Majesty, the patrol must not be stopped, and Empress Lu is a woman, so she should not manage the palace guards, please go back." Li Shang said very firmly.

After hearing this, his heart was completely anxious, and he immediately said without concealment: "Your Majesty has died today, we are acting on orders, why are you so pedantic, Empress Lu has an edict to kill meritorious heroes, and the general is meritorious today, and there will be rewards in the future." ”

Li Shang was beside him, and he didn't dare to speak for a while, and he pretended to be calm for a long time before he pretended to be calm and said: "You are really the master of the chaos, and now Your Majesty has collapsed, and when you encounter this incident, the Han will be in chaos." ”

"You are a martial artist, how do you know the key point, in the past, Chu and Han competed, and there were many powerful ministers, and now His Majesty collapsed in Weiyang Palace, and the powerful ministers are still there, intricate, if you don't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and the crown prince ascends the throne, these people will definitely threaten the status of the prince, you don't know, you will only sigh." He hurriedly explained.

"And as the adults said, I'm just a martial artist, and I ask the adults to take care of everything by themselves, and the business will return home immediately." Li Shang said very directly.

Seeing this, he was quite happy in his heart, how to say that this kid is also interested, since this is the case, let him go, and after Li Shang left the palace, he went straight to the location of Lu Yan, that is, Chang'an Xue Palace.

At this moment, Lu Yan was reviewing the affairs of Chang'an, and when he saw the Weiyang Palace guard general Li Shang coming, he couldn't help but be a little dazed, and immediately cooked tea and prepared a seat, "The old general is a general in the palace, why did he come to this school, isn't there something going on in the palace?" Lu Yan asked suspiciously.

Li Shang immediately bowed his head, "Qi Yu Auxiliary Zhenggong, now His Majesty has died in Weiyang Palace, Empress Lu and the others are not mourning, and they want to use this place to decide the heroes of the court, and please go to the palace to deal with it quickly." ”

Lu Yan was beside him, his face was very surprised, "What, Your Majesty has died, such a major event, Empress Lu dared to conceal it, it was really the beginning of the trouble." ”

"Please also ask the old general to lead the way, and Ziyu will personally go to comfort Empress Lu for the funeral of the emperor." Lu Yan then said.

Where did Li Shang dare to delay, so he went to Changle Palace with Lu Yan, and Empress Lu was drafting the edict at the moment, and Zhao Yao and the judge were on the side.

At this moment, Lu Yan suddenly came from outside the palace, and when Empress Lu saw this, he didn't know what to do, so he immediately ordered the edict to be put away left and right, and he and Zhao Yao retreated, and went to meet King Pingnan.

At the palace gate, Lu Yan also knew the etiquette, and when he saw Lu Pheasant approaching, he immediately saluted and said: "Minister Lu Yan visited the Queen Mother, and asked the Queen Mother to think twice." ”

When Lu Pheasant heard this, his face changed slightly, but he didn't expect that he had changed his name to the Queen Mother now, and it seemed that the matter was a little unconcealable, "Isn't it that King Pingnan has learned of His Majesty's death?" ”

"As the queen mother said, our heroes most hope that the world is peaceful, to assist the new emperor, how to rebel, the consequences of the kings, we dare not forget it at any time, and ask the queen mother to take back the order, don't disrupt the dynasty because of this, so that the Han Dynasty is in the hands of the queen mother." Lu Yan said very seriously.

When Empress Lu heard this, she also felt reasonable, "But the matter of heroes still needs to be considered, after all, it is not easy to be a big man." ”

"Today, the emperor collapsed for a few days, the queen mother did not mourn, it was really dangerous, Ziyu said the truth, and asked the queen mother to listen quietly, today the baby 100,000 soldiers died in Xingyang, Zhou Bo tens of thousands of soldiers died in the Yan Dynasty, and now they are still in the land, if they hear that the elders of the court, all of them were killed, their hearts are afraid, they will be united left and right, break through Chang'an, and wait for the Han Dynasty to be really like Qin, and the two generations will die." Lu Yan said very emotionally.

"The words of the auxiliary political prince are very reasonable, this law is the trial of the two of them and Zhao Yao, the mourning family was confused for a while, several misguided countries and people, the crime should be ten thousand deaths, the matter is clear, the mourning family will order people to prepare for the future." Lu Hou said slowly.

Lu Yan looked at the judge and Zhao Yao behind him slightly, the two of them had already retreated to the corner, "Your Majesty has died today, it is not appropriate to punish the hundred officials, you should be self-disciplined, there can be no mistakes, in the future, severe punishment will not be awarded, and in addition, General Li is also invited to convene the three princes and nine kings to hold a funeral, that is, the matter of the emperor's throne." Lu Yan arranged in an orderly manner.

When Empress Lu saw Lu Yan serving the country like this, she was also relieved a lot, "The auxiliary government is really for the country, and in the future, my mother and son will have to rely on adults." ”

"The queen mother is the mother of the country, Ziyu doesn't dare to be it." Lu Yan immediately bowed and saluted.
