Chapter Seventy-Six: Lu Hou I

Lao Tzu is dead

Smoothly written

Liu Bang's son Liu Ying succeeded to the throne

This is Emperor Hui of Han

Although Liu Ying became the emperor

But it's not him who really has the final say

It was his mother, Empress Dowager Lu

What's going on here?

We also have to talk about this Empress Dowager Lu

Empress Dowager Lu

It is the former Empress Lu

Lv Pheasant

Liu Bang was a scoundrel back then

lied about giving a gift of 10,000 yuan to Mrs. Lu's house to satisfy his hunger

didn't expect Mrs. Lu to fall in love with this gangster pavilion chief

married his daughter to Liu Bang

Although Liu Bang was a pavilion chief at that time

That can only be regarded as a sesame big official dew with a big future

And before marrying Lu Pheasant

Although he didn't get a wife

But he was merry and happy outside, and had an illegitimate child

Lu Pheasant did not dislike her husband

She did her best

fulfilled the responsibilities of being a wife, a daughter-in-law and a stepmother

Later, Liu Bang became rich

became the king of Han

But because the world is too chaotic

Lu Pheasant and Mrs. Liu's family stayed in Pei County

Not only did they not enjoy the blessings

It was also in the battle of Chu and Han in the future

was captured by Xiang Yu and taken to Chu Ying as a hostage

After nine deaths

Lu Pheasant finally returned to Liu Bang's side

But at this time, Liu Bang already had a new woman by his side

Mrs. Qi

A blessing in the midst of misfortune

Lu Pheasant is also the first lady

Her biological son, Liu Ying, is the crown prince

But Lu Pheasant is not the only one who has a biological son

Mrs. Qi also has one

It is the Ruyi who was established as the king of Zhao

Mrs. Qi thought very well

My husband is liking himself more and more

The meal ticket for the first half of my life is in my pocket

If only his son could be made a prince again

The rest of his life has also been settled

So she wanted to fight for her son for the position of the crown prince

How exactly is it fighting?

Of course, she couldn't go to Lu Pheasant to fight

It is said that ah

This Mrs. Qi often cries in front of Liu Bang

to the point of crying day and night

And so on and forth

Liu Bang also gradually moved his mind

Liu Bang thinks

Liu Ying is a good boy though

But the character is too kind and cowardly

It's this wishful thinking

Be a good person

It's quite like when I was younger

At that time, Liu Bang was already the emperor

Such a major event as changing the crown prince

He's still not good at making decisions on his own

I consulted with the ministers of the DPRK and China

Unexpectedly

Those ministers who have experienced the test of war with Empress Lu

did not agree to the replacement of the crown prince

Although there are quite a few people who support it

But Lu Hou was still a little panicked

I'm afraid that Mrs. Qi will blow the wind on the pillow every day

I don't know which day Liu Bangli will disagree with the public

really removed Liu Ying's crown prince

Come and think about it

Lu Hou thought of a person

Zhang liang

After both hard and soft

Zhang Liang sent someone to give a message to Empress Lu

Your Majesty used to listen to me

But that was in the difficult times of the war

This is no longer the case

My words don't work well

Don't worry

I've heard that

The emperor attached great importance to the four masters who lived in seclusion in Shangshan

But people heard that the emperor has always been arrogant and rude

They refused to go down the mountain

If the queen can give these four people, please go down the mountain

Let them assist the prince

Especially when it came to the court

Let them go with the prince

The emperor saw that these four people were assisting the crown prince

Maybe the idea of changing the crown prince will be dispelled

Empress Lu is a doer

After reading Zhang Liang's suggestion

Immediately, the prince asked the prince to write a personal letter to the four masters

Then send people who are close to him

With a generous gift, I went to invite the four masters out of the mountain

I don't know if it's the prince's letter, it's too touching

Or those four masters originally intended to assist the next emperor

They soon ended their seclusion

Come to the Prince's side

Assist the Crown Prince

Things were a bit of a mess after that

The princes and kings under Liu Bang constantly rebelled

I don't care about the prince's affairs

The royal driver himself went

During this period

Empress Lu was not idle

When Liu Bang went to quell Chen Feng's rebellion

She conspired with Xiao He to take down Han Xin, who acted as an internal response

And then it was arbitrary

didn't wait for Liu Bang to come back and give instructions

Killed Han Xin

After killing Han Shin

Empress Lu's image among the ministers was different all of a sudden

In the eyes of all the heroes

She is no longer a woman

It's a hostess

Empress Lu was not satisfied with this achievement

She kept trying

Peng Yue, the king of Liang, asked her for help on the way to exile

Without saying a word, she brought Peng Yue to Liu Bang's side

In a few words, Liu Bang was persuaded to kill Peng Yue

Such a capable wife is stationed in the rear

Liu Bang was more relieved to go to the rebellion

In this way, he personally went to crusade against the rebellious Yingbu

Yingbu was killed though

But Liu Bang was hit by a stray arrow in the war

This body is getting worse day by day

He had a vague feeling that his life would not last long

He had to hurry up and determine the heir he was happy with

Then abolish the crown prince and set up a new one

It's imminent

Many ministers in the DPRK and China still firmly support Liu Ying

But Liu Bang's temper is getting more and more stubborn day by day

Zhang Liang saw that he couldn't speak anymore

I can't go to court because I'm sick

The crown prince, the uncle, and Sun Tong even admonished each other with death

Liu Bang only superficially obeyed

In my heart, I was ready to start

There was a time

The emperor feasted hundreds of officials in the palace

Liu Bang's astonishing discovery

There were four old men sitting beside the prince

All four of them had white beards and eyebrows

At least 80 years old

Liu Bang had never seen them

I asked the four of them where they came from

The four stepped forward to answer

Each reported his name

Liu Bang was taken aback when he heard this

For so many years

I've been sending people to ask you to come out of the mountains

You all avoid it

Why follow my son now

The four replied in unison

We have heard that His Majesty does not like scholars

He also loves to swear

We don't want to suffer this humiliation

That's why I haven't dared to come to see Your Majesty

Now I heard that the prince was filial and respectful

Special respect for readers

Everyone in the world is willing to serve him

We are not willing to be left behind

Willing to go out of the mountain to assist the prince

After listening to these words

Liu Bang couldn't help but look at the prince again

Half an hour later

He turned back to the four old men and said

After that, the crown prince will be handed over to the four

The four old men toasted Liu Bang with a glass of wine and went down

Liu Bang pointed to the backs of the four and said to Mrs. Qi

I have the heart to change the crown prince

But you see

Even these four have come to assist the prince

It seems that the crown prince's wings are already full

I can't move even if I want to

Mrs. Qi cried bitterly after hearing this

But Liu Bang has made up his mind

Until death

The replacement of the crown prince was never mentioned again

That's it

Liu Ying's status as the crown prince was retained

Empress Lu has a bit of a bottom in her heart

After Liu Bang returned to heaven

Empress Lu was still a little worried that her son was too young

I may not be able to suppress those old ministers

has never mourned Liu Bang

She consulted with her henchmen

Many of the generals who led the troops were the same as the emperor

It was from the common people

Later, the emperor took the throne

They knelt down and called themselves vassals

I wasn't very convinced

Now the crown prince is on the throne

and asked them to serve the young emperor

They will certainly be more unconvinced

If you don't kill them all

The world will not be peaceful

I don't know how

And the word went out

It was known to the general Li Shang

Whether it's for the sake of Dahan

Or their own heads

Li Shang felt the need to do something

Come and think about it

So I went to see him

My lord

I heard that the Emperor had been dead for four days

But the Queen Mother has been secretly mourning

I also want to kill all the generals

If only it did

The world was in danger then

Think about it

Chen Ping led an army of 100,000 to garrison Xingyang

Fan Hao and Zhou Bo led an army of 200,000 in Yandi

If you hear that the emperor has died, the generals will be killed

It will definitely lead the troops back to attack Guanzhong

Until that time

The ministers are making trouble inside

The princes rebelled abroad

The day of the end of the world is not far off

This is true

Judging the food, he nodded again and again

Then hurriedly entered the palace to see Empress Lu

The stakes were repeated

Then Empress Lu is a person who understands

She stopped doing it to the generals

and then gave Liu Bang a funeral

Amnesty to the world

Now Liu Ying is sitting on the throne of the emperor

But the one who really controls the world is still that Empress Lu

Wrong

Now she is the Empress Dowager Lu

Empress Dowager Lu has clear grievances

After the amnesty

She began to do something to Mrs. Qi

Mrs. Qi was first punished for hard labor

But this Mrs. Qi is used to the life of fine clothes and food

Where can I endure such suffering

She sang in private and sighed

The son is king

The mother was a slave

Rice all day long until dusk

Often associated with death

Mother and son are three thousand miles apart

Who are you going to find to tell you

The song soon reached the ears of the Empress Dowager Lu

Empress Dowager Lu was unhappy

Good

Don't you want your son to know?

Then I'll let your son come and see you with his own eyes
