Zhang Fang remembered that at the beginning of the year, Liu Biao visited him on the occasion of worshipping his ancestors. At that time, Liu Biao said that he would go to Zhongshan on behalf www.biquge.info of the Son of Heaven to mourn his uncle, and he was also their childhood friend Liu Jing, the king of Zhongshan. Calculate the time, and it's indeed time to come back.

Far away, a person stepped into the palace gate, and when he walked, his sleeves were flying, and he was looking forward to it. Approached to the foot of the Dan Qi and bowed down: "The son sent an edict to Zhongshan to convey the holy will and comfort the mourning king." Two months and ten days before and after, he returned today and gave orders to his father. ”

Emperor Yuan's calm voice came: "The prince has worked hard all the way, get up." ”

Liu Biao said respectfully: "It is the duty of the sons and daughters to work for their fathers and emperors, so how hard is it." ”

"How is the matter of Zhongshan mourning the king?"

"Everything is handled in accordance with the will of the father, and the whole Zhongshan palace is grateful for the kindness of the father."

"That's good, pity the sad king Shaohua passed away, and there are no heirs yet......"

When Emperor Yuan saw the prince in front of him, he couldn't help but think of his younger brother who was the same age as him and always studied together, but now he died early. Alas! My little brother is really blessed......"

Zhang Fang was close, and he heard the sound of choking between Emperor Yuan's words. It seems that the "old emperor" still loves this younger brother who is as old as his son.

When Zhang Fang's eyes turned to Liu Biao's face, his heart suddenly chuckled, Liu Biao's expression was deferential, and he was smiling - this was the most standard expression in front of the emperor, but now this atmosphere is not suitable!

What Zhang Fang didn't know was that on his side, Shi Dan was desperately glancing at Liu Biao, but at this time, the prince was too close to the emperor to squint and didn't see it at all.

Liu Kang coughed lightly and covered his mouth with his sleeve, hoping to use this action to attract his brother's attention.

However, it was too late......

Boom! There was a heavy sound, and I didn't know what to hit, and then Emperor Yuan's angry voice came: "There are people who are not merciful and can serve the temple as the people's parents!" "Even if you don't dare to raise your head, you can imagine that Emperor Yuan's face has changed color.

That's too much!

The crown prince Liu Biao was still smiling one second, and the next second, the whole person was "Spartan".

Not only him, but the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were frightened, what is the situation?

Liu Biao knelt down with a pout, kowtowed heavily, and in a panic, he didn't know what to say, so he could only kowtow vigorously: "My father is angry, it is my son's disgrace, please punish my father." ”

On the first day of going to the court, he encountered this kind of thing, and Zhang Fang really didn't know if he was too lucky. As a rookie in the court, he can't help if he wants to, except for bowing down to the crowd, he really can't do anything.

At the critical moment, he heard a voice: "The minister pleads guilty to His Majesty." ”

One person stepped out, retreated behind the prince, prostrated under the dan mound, took off the cicada crown, and even pleaded guilty, it was Shi Dan.

Shi Dan's appearance suddenly diverted the attention of the angry Emperor Yuan, and he said in surprise: "I blame the prince, what do you have to do with Qing?" ”

Stan laid the cicada crown flat on the ground and apologized: "Since the beginning of October, Chen Cheng has seen His Majesty mourning the King of Zhongshan, so much so that he has damaged the dragon's body. Today, the prince should come in to see him, and the minister should not cry the prince, so as not to make His Majesty sentimental, and he does not want to arouse His Majesty's anger. The sin is in the servants, and it deserves death. ”

Liu Biao was also blessed to his heart, weeping and weeping: "What Shi Jun said, Erchen also thought so, so he acted according to his instructions." Please ask your father to put the subjects of the world first, don't feel damaged, as long as your father is in good health, his son is willing to be guilty of the same crime as Shi Jun. ”

Shi Xian, Xu Jia, Kuang Heng and other bigwigs also expressed their positions, saying that the prince's filial piety was pitiful.

Emperor Yuan was silent for a while, and sighed: "I see, the prince and Shi Qing are too worried, so let's get up." ”

Is that okay?! Zhang Fang felt that his head was a little insufficient, and as soon as he heard this kind of words, he knew that it was to make up for it afterwards, why was the emperor so coaxing? But after thinking about it, I realized that the emperor knew that he had lost his temper, and Stan's plea was to give him a step down, how could he not go down?

Zhang Fang raised his eyes and quickly swept over the faces of those court bigwigs, and all he saw was a calm expression - I see, is this the political science of the court?

Zhang Fang sighed, but also secretly gave a thumbs up in his heart, this Stan is worthy of being a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he is really familiar with the temperament of the Son of Heaven, and he resolved the crisis of the prince in just a few words, and the public relations of this crisis is done well. At the same time, Zhang Fang wanted to understand one thing, Shi Dan did this, not because he was reckless because he was favored by the Son of Heaven, but because he had to be like this, who called him the prince's concubine.

The crown prince is unremarkable, and the first thing to be held accountable is him, the middle concubine, who he can't avoid. The right thing to do is to do it like this, taking everything on your shoulders. In this way, in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, he is a conscientious and loyal servant who lives up to expectations; And in the prince's heart, this favor was added again.

Shi Stan's move, flattering at both ends, is worthy of being an officialdom.

Zhang Fang secretly remembered in his heart that today Stan could be regarded as a valuable lesson for him.

On the first day of going to the court, Zhang Fang was deeply impressed, and it seemed that the water in the court was very deep......

What really frightened Zhang Fang was that Emperor Yuan's reprimand for the prince blurted out. What kind of words will just blurt out the brain, from a psychological point of view, that is, the mind thinks and accumulates in the heart. Has the emperor been dissatisfied with the crown prince to this extent?

If it is in the harem, the prince knocks on the emperor, the emperor is dissatisfied with the prince's attitude and reprimands him face-to-face, it can also be said that the father teaches his son, which is a family matter. But when you move to the court, the nature is very different. In this way, in front of the ministers, the face of the prince is lost, and there are historians on the side to make records, saying heavy words that are not worthy of being a king, what does this make the ministers think?

What is the emperor's intention in doing this?

Zhang Fang's mind unexpectedly flashed back to a few months ago, when Fengqiyuan was guarding filial piety, Liu Biao talked about his father's depressed expression towards Liu Kang. Thinking about it, his eyes naturally glanced at Liu Kang.

Zhang Fang's eyes were sharp, and he was very close to Liu Kang, and what he saw was that young and handsome face, with his brother's concern for his brother, and a relieved relief...... Slow, why is there a flash of disappointment in your eyes......

Zhang Fang immediately retracted his gaze, his eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his heart, and his heart was surging - that's right, the emperor released so many obvious or vague signals, how could Liu Kang not have a little idea?

In fact, Zhang Fang before the age of thirteen had dealings with the three princes, but in terms of Zhang Fang's character at that time, the most popular was the crown prince Liu Biao. Liu Biao, Liu Jing, Shi Han, Yu Tian, Zhang Fang, five ****** who are not kings and marquises, like to feast and drink the most, and play and travel. With five people as the core, plus a group of young people from official families, a small group is formed.

Liu Kang's personality is very similar to that of Emperor Yuan, gentle and elegant, erudite and talented, likes to be quiet and does not like to make trouble, accepts people and treats things, and is decent. Such a character is naturally the same as that Zhang Fang couldn't pee in a pot at all.

Now that he has stood in line, Zhang Fang has no choice, he must firmly stand on the side of the crown prince Liu Biao, this is a matter of position and cannot be ambiguous.

It's just that what I saw today, combined with what I heard in the past, Zhang Xinxin suddenly had no bottom - will this Liu Biao still ascend to the throne like in history?
