Liu Ling's speech was not only presented to the princess of the pavilion, but almost everyone who listened to the lecture that day had a copy, and the Son of Heaven was no exception.

The Son of Heaven was very entangled in this speech.

In all fairness, this research is significant. The purpose of re-intimacy is to strengthen the relationship and continue the future of the family, and no one wants to have an unsound child. As the Son of Heaven, he didn't want so many couples in his people to be infertile or of low quality. As a father, he doesn't want to be a stupid son himself.

Now it seems that it may be a good thing that the queen does not give birth, but it is a real disaster to give birth to a fool.

However, the Son of Heaven faintly felt that this matter was not as beautiful as it seemed. Although there is no evidence that Liu Ling did this because he was entrusted by the queen, in fact, she really found him a problem. If Wei Zifu gives birth to a prince, will Empress Chen abdicate the throne?

The king of Huainan is not giving up, and he wants to fight with the princess of the pavilion Tao? Not to mention whether Liu Ling has such a mind, at least the princess of the pavilion Tao has. Wei Qihou Dou Ying suddenly became active, which made the Son of Heaven feel some crisis.

Could Liang Xiao have played a role in this? The Son of Heaven suddenly chuckled in his heart, and his face changed slightly.

At this moment, Zhu Maichen walked in quickly, holding a note in his hand. "Your Majesty, the champion Hou Liangxiao has written a book."

The Son of Heaven glanced at Zhu Maichen, and said in his heart, it is really a spirit, as soon as he thinks of him, his recital will arrive.

"What did he say?" The Son of Heaven took the song and asked.

"He impeached Liu Jian, the prince of Jiangdu, for being unfilial, improperly dispatched, and insulting the king of Jiangdu."

The Son of Heaven blinked. I opened it and read it. Snorted. "He's a communiqué for personal vendetta, right?"

Zhu Maichen was silent. But I was very happy in my heart. Of course, he felt that Liang Xiao was having a personal vendetta in the communiqué, but the Son of Heaven didn't ask, he couldn't take the initiative to say it, at most he could only mention it intentionally or unintentionally. Although he has not been in the province for a long time, from Yan Zhu's mouth, he already has a certain understanding of the character of the Son of Heaven, and knows when to say what to say and when not to say it.

Moreover. After reading the book for so many years, the word "minister" is by no means the evaluation he hopes to get.

"You Wu Chu people, do you all hold grudges like this?"

Zhu Maichen was stunned for a moment, a little embarrassed. He pondered nervously. What does the Son of Heaven mean by this phrase? Is it to blame Liang Xiao, or do you want to say something?

See Zhu Maichen's speech. The Son of Heaven smiled and gently put Liang Xiao's recital on the table. "This Feng Ji provoked Liang Xiao, because his life was not good, and he couldn't blame others. Liu Jian is indeed Meng Lang, how can the guest of his wife's family take on such a heavy responsibility? Zhu Maichen. You go to Jiangdu. ”

"Yui!" Zhu Maichen answered, and then asked, "Your Majesty." Liang Xiao is embarrassed by Feng Ji, how to deal with it? ”

"I know he's not happy." The Son of Heaven snorted: "If it's just a little petty, forget it." If you don't know how to advance or retreat, I'm afraid it won't be of great use, and you won't have to be regular. ”

Zhu Maichen didn't understand it halfway, but he didn't dare to ask again, so he retreated.

The Son of Heaven was standing alone in the hall, thought for a while, and suddenly laughed and shook his head. "After all, he is a martial artist, and he is so rude in controlling qi."

——

Zhu Maichen went down to the palace, found Yan Zhu, told him what had happened, and asked sincerely: "Yan Jun, is there anything wrong with my response, why is the Son of Heaven so strange, but let me go to Jiangdu?" ”

Yan Zhu glanced at Zhu Maichen with a smile. In front of Zhu Maichen, he has respect that he can't enjoy in front of others.

"Sit down and talk."

"Whoa." Zhu Maichen sat down opposite, arched his hands, and looked at Yan Zhu respectfully. Although he is a few years older than Yan Suke, according to the rules, he is promoted by Yan Zhu and should be treated with courtesy.

"Why did the Son of Heaven send Liang Xiao to Jiangdu?" Yan Zhu said with a smile: "Doesn't he know that Liang Xiao and Liu Jian have a holiday? ”

Zhu Maichen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized. "Is this the Son of Heaven deliberately giving him a chance to vent his grievances?"

"Liang Xiao is a martial artist, he doesn't read much, he has a simple mind, if he is uncomfortable, he can't deal with it, he will only go straight. If the Son of Heaven wants to promote Wei Qing, he naturally wants to belittle Liang Xiao. If you don't give him a chance to vent, what if Liang Xiao is sprinkled in Chang'an? ”

"Not bad, not bad." Zhu Maichen took over the topic and said with a smile: "If it's someone else, that's fine." Liang Xiao is a young man who is a heavy son of heaven, and he suddenly turned his face, and he couldn't get over his face. ”

"That's right. Brother Zhu, you can draw inferences, this is the strength of a scholar. ”

"Thank you Yan Jun for reminding me." Zhu Maichen bowed to the end. "I see."

"Don't have a direct conflict with Liang Xiao. If you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, so why not let him be proud for a while. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge. The Son of Heaven is right, we Wu Chu people are so vindictive. If there is revenge and no revenge, how can it stand in the world? ”

Zhu Maichen nodded knowingly.

——

At the end of January, Liang Xiao rushed to Jiangdu.

Prince Liu Jian and Minister of State Dong Zhongshu went to the border to greet each other.

Liu Jian's expression was very haggard, like a frosted eggplant. After the news of Feng Ji being killed by Liang Xiao came back, Liu Jian was very manic for a while, shouting and screaming to fight Liang Xiao to the end. If it weren't for Minister Dong Zhongshu to stop him, he might have been on the Son of Heaven. A few days later, Zhu Maichen, the messenger of the Son of Heaven, arrived and severely condemned Liu Jian for his improper use of people and suspicion of unfilial piety, and Liu Jian realized that his situation was not good.

The Son of Heaven is obviously pulling the shelf. Liang Xiao killed his messenger, the Son of Heaven didn't say a word about Liang Xiao, he didn't even investigate, he directly accepted Liang Xiao's opinion, isn't this pulling the bias or what?

Liu Jian was very aggrieved. When did he suffer this kind of anger, not to mention that Liang Xiao was once his subject. On the one hand, he suppressed his anger and prepared for Liu Fei's funeral, and on the other hand, he sent people to Beijing and asked Gaihou Wang Xin to come forward, write to the Son of Heaven, and impeach Liang Xiao.

Until then, he could only endure it.

It felt very uncomfortable, and he could only bear it. Today's Liang Xiao is no longer the ranger of the year, he is the champion of the 3,800 households in Shiyi, the favorite minister of the Son of Heaven, and the talent that the former king Liu Fei admired during his lifetime. He dealt with Liang Xiao at this time, and it was easy to give people a handle. If he really wants to fall into the charge of unfilial piety, it is difficult to say whether he can inherit the king of Jiangdu.

The plan now is to keep the throne first.

Liu Jian hated Liang Xiao to the core, but Liang Xiao didn't have time to deal with him. After explaining his official duties, Liang Xiao took time to find Dong Zhongshu.

Dong Zhongshu is concentrating on dealing with Liu Fei's funeral. Dong Zhongshu is a great Confucian, and he is bent on promoting Confucianism as the political ideology of the empire, so naturally people cannot feel that he is not knowledgeable enough and his etiquette is not thorough. For Liang Xiao's visit, he was very surprised and a little pleased.

The Son of Heaven once asked Liang Xiao to hold a halberd for him, which was an honor he talked about.

"I came here today because I wanted to talk to Dong Gong." Liang Xiao was also not polite and got straight to the point. "The king of Jiangdu sacrificed his life for the country, and the imperial court must re-grant honor and favor to comfort the soul of the king of Jiangdu. Dong Gong is the Minister of State and has the responsibility of auxiliary government, I don't know if Dong Gong can have a strategy for security? ”

Dong Zhongshu knew that Liang Xiao and Liu Jian were at odds, and he also knew Liang Xiao's intention, so he deliberately said: "What does the prince mean? ”

"Dong Gong, I won't beat around the bush with you, just say it, I don't think Liu Jiancai is enough to be the king. If he is allowed to succeed to the throne, it will only bring shame to the king of Jiangdu, and I am afraid that Dong Gong will not be able to escape the blame at that time. ”

Dong Zhongshu was silent. What kind of virtue Liu Jian, he knows clearly. Although Liang Xiao has a personal vendetta in the communiqué, he is reasonable.

"What does the prince mean?"

"The body of King Jiangdu returns to Jiangdu safely, and my mission is over. The rest of the matter is in charge of Dong Gong and Zhu Maichen, and I shouldn't have intervened. The reason why he didn't avoid suspicion was just because he had some karma with Dong Gong, and he didn't want to see Dong Gong's name ruined by him. ”

Dong Zhongshu smiled. He understood what Liang Xiao meant. Liang Xiao wanted to borrow his hand to take revenge on Liu Jian and use him as a knife man, did he look so stupid?

"Thank you for your concern. Zhong Shu was entrusted by His Majesty to be the capital of Xiangjiang, although his virtue is shallow and thin, he should also encourage himself. Zi said: There is no class in teaching. Ordinary people can't give up easily, not to mention that the prince of Jiangdu has the fact that he is the heir? Zhong Shu didn't dare to obey his fate. ”

"Since Dong Gong said so, then I have nothing to say." Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows, smiling rather than smiling. Dong Zhongshu didn't know how big of a deal he was, and he wanted to be tied up with Liu Jian, the scum, and he didn't object. He came to Dong Zhongshu, but he didn't want to mess with Liu Jian, that kind of scum doesn't need to be handled by anyone, and sooner or later he will kill himself.

He came to Dong Zhongshu for something more important. Huang Lao's struggle with Confucianism is not over yet, and now that Dong Zhongshu has revealed his flaws, how can he let him go easily.

"Dong Gong, my mother returned to her hometown to visit relatives, and when she heard about your political achievements, she was full of praise. When I came back this time, I also heard many people's praise for Dong Gongzhi's voice, which is really gratifying. Dong Gong is a great Confucian for learning, a good official for officials, and he will be the pillar of the court in the future. ”

Dong Zhongshu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. He stroked his beard and said a few modest words. "How dare you, how dare you, the prince has won the prize."

"However, I also heard some not-so-good opinions, and some people complained about Dong Gong's request for rain. Dong Gong should also be careful. ”

Dong Zhongshu was prepared. Liang Yuan returned to his hometown to visit relatives, he once arranged for someone to receive him, and the Qianqiu Pavilion of the former residence of the Liang family was built by him. "The saints set up ghosts and gods to teach the people, and praying for rain is also closely related to the people's livelihood. You can't be fooled by those people, Prince. ”

Liang Xiao was unmoved. "Dong Gong, this is asking for rain...... Is it really Spirit? ”

Dong Zhongshu didn't think twice. "Heaven and man are one, sincerity is spiritual." Just kidding, this is one of the foundations of his learning, and it can't be easily discredited.

"How many times have you begged for rain, and how many times have you succeeded?"

Dong Zhongshu's eyes flashed, and he hesitated. "Ask for once, make it once."

Liang Xiao nodded. "If this is the case, then I should be famous for Dong Gong and play the Son of Heaven. But if it's ......" He glanced at Dong Zhongshu and laughed silently, sinisterly. "This crime of bullying the king is not a joke, is Dong Gong thinking about it again?"

Dong Zhongshu's face changed greatly, and the back of his neck was cold and swishing. He knew that Liang Xiao was not good at coming today, and the dispute between Confucianism and Taoism was about to be torn apart again-
