Time flickered, and it entered the wax moon, and the weather was cold.

Two months ago, the Son of Heaven sent the imperial physician to the domain of King Hejing and King Zhangde of Yingchuan to see the three seriously ill vassal kings.

The three vassal kings each went to the table and thanked the Son of Heaven for his kindness.

The Son of Heaven soon issued another decree.

The three elderly vassal kings stayed in the domain to recuperate, and it was okay to return to Beijing when they were cured. With the imperial physician personally taking care of them, the children and grandchildren of the vassal king's family no longer need to stay and serve the sick, and they immediately packed their luggage and returned to Beijing on the day they received the holy decree.

Otherwise, it will be punished as a felony of treason.

This decree immediately caused a strong upheaval among the vassal kings.

The young Son of Heaven is so tough that he can't rub a little sand in his eyes! If the three of the Yingchuan Kings want to delay indefinitely, it is absolutely impossible.

Next, how will the King of Yingchuan deal with it? It is to hand over the feudal soldiers and let the children and grandchildren return to Beijing. Or do you directly raise troops and declare war with the imperial court?

After thinking about it for a while, all the vassal kings felt apprehensive and excited.

On the occasion of King Chenliu's birthday, a group of vassal kings boarded the door of King Chenliu's mansion in the name of congratulating his birthday.

……

Chen Liuwang, who was the oldest to return to Beijing and was the most courteous to the Son of Heaven, is seventy this year. Life is rare for seventy years, and at this age, there is no doubt that he is a long life.

King Chen Liu's old heart was not confused, he accepted the birthday gifts of the vassal kings, and happily chatted and drank with the vassal kings. Once someone asked about King Yingchuan and others, King Chen Liuwang kept silent or ignored him.

"Uncle Chen Liu, the emperor's decree has been issued, and within half a month, it will be in the hands of King Hejing and King Zhangde of Yingchuan. I don't know how the three of them will deal with ......"

"Huh! Drink and drink! ”

"Uncle Chen Liuwang, we can't just sit idly by and watch this matter. In case the emperor really made up his mind to punish him for the felony of treason, the king of Yingchuan would have to rebel if they didn't rebel......"

"Today, I made this wine myself when I was 50 years old, and I have been cellaring it for 20 years. This year, I am willing to open the altar, is it extraordinarily fragrant? ”

"Uncle Chenliu, don't worry about drinking for now. For such a major matter, we can discuss a constitutional countermeasure today. We are all vassal kings, and we should work together, otherwise, we will become fish on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others. Even that bastard who hasn't grown his hair yet, dares to show off his might in front of us......"

"If you don't drink such a good wine, I'll put it away and keep it when I'm eighty years old."

Vassal Kings: "......"

Anyway, no matter what the vassal kings say, King Chen Liuwang just won't answer. Blindly laughing and persuading everyone to drink.

The impatient Jiangxia King finally got angry, slammed the table, and asked through gritted teeth, "Uncle Chen Liu, you are the oldest and oldest of our vassal kings. The big guys are here today, just to get you an explanation, give us an idea. What's the matter with you prevaricating and drinking? ”

Chen Liuwang, whose hair and beard were white, did not move, and drank a glass of Chinese wine by himself. Then he slowly put down his glass and said slowly, "What you are thinking is your business." ”

"I'm old, I don't have the ability to think cranky, and I can't stand the wind and waves."

"You have big ambitions, but I don't. I just want to see my children and grandchildren live well and well until the day they die. ”

"I am the first vassal king to return to Beijing, and the emperor is very kind to me. He gave me the most gold and silver fields, and arranged places for my children and grandchildren. My eldest grandson went to the Zongren Mansion as an errand boy, and the rest of the grandsons were not too angry, so they went to study. When you succeed in your studies, the Zongren Mansion has its own arrangements. ”

"I'm living a good and contented life like this."

"You are not satisfied, and you want to toss, so let you go. However, don't come to ask me, so as not to affect me from the top and bottom of the palace. ”

The words made all the vassal kings change color.

Chen Liuwang made up his mind to surrender to the Son of Heaven and stay in the capital to retire.

King Jiangxia wanted to slap the table again and ask, but King Chen Liu's face sank: "According to the seniority, I am an elder." You are a junior, slapping the table and staring in front of me, what kind of system has you become? Someone came, the king of Jiangxia was drunk and sent him back to his house to rest. ”

At the sound of an order, several tall and strong guards rushed in and unceremoniously "invited" King Jiangxia out. King Jiangxia scolded angrily, and I don't know which guard "accidentally" hit King Jiangxia with his elbow. King Jiangxia was so painful that he almost lost his breath, and naturally he couldn't scold.

The room was suddenly much quieter.

King Chen Liuwang raised his glass again and smiled at the vassal kings: "Hehe! Drink and drink! ”

Vassal Kings: "......"

……

That night, King An entered the Yiqing Palace and reported everything that happened in Chenliu's palace to Sheng Hong: "...... This Chen Liuwang is really knowledgeable and interesting. The imperial brother treated him well, and he knew in his heart that today's birthday banquet did not give the vassal kings a good face at all. ”

"King Jiangxia was directly pushed back and lost face."

King An is still young in the end, and the city government is not deep, his eyebrows fluttered when he mentioned this matter, and his face was happy and complacent: "I installed eyeliner in Chenliu Wangfu." I got word about it very quickly. ”

"King Chen Liuwang took the initiative to send someone to the Zongren Mansion and quietly told me about it."

Sheng Hong's eyes flashed, and he pulled the corners of his mouth: "King Chen Liuwang is borrowing your mouth to show loyalty to me, the Son of Heaven." ”

King An nodded and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, brother Huang, I know the severity." Whether it is loyal or treacherous depends on the action. A few fluttering words, don't take it seriously. ”

Just listening to these few words, I know that King An has matured and grown a lot in the past few months.

Sheng Hong felt relieved in his heart, and nodded with a smile: "You're right. You can't just look at the surface, you have to be a little more careful in everything. ”

"Chen Liuwang is a scheming old fox. It is not easy to completely accept it. The vassal kings have different thoughts. One by one, they are waiting to see how I deal with the King of Yingchuan, the King of Hejing, and the King of Zhangde. ”

"Let them see the abilities and means of my son of heaven."

The last sentence is cold and murderous.

King An's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he couldn't help but lower his voice and asked, "Brother Huang, do you really want to do something to them?" ”

A cold look flashed in Sheng Hong's eyes: "I gave them a chance." If they let their children and grandchildren return to Beijing in time, it can be seen that they are still convinced. If we continue to delay and do not return, I will send troops to recover the domain once and for all. ”

In just a few words, King An's heart beat faster and his blood boiled.

The royal brother is really powerful and domineering!

King An blurted out impassionedly: "I am willing to be a pawn for the imperial brother!" ”

Sheng Hong was a little surprised, and reached out to pat King An's shoulder: "You can be your errand and do a good job in the Zongren Mansion." You don't have to worry about things like cutting down feudal domains and fighting wars. How can you be a pawn with your little skill! ”

King An: "......"
