Chapter 2 The Imperial Family of Dongzhou (1)

The snow and ice are floating and the wind is blowing, and the white hair covers the flaws and closes the eyes.

The positive and negative black and white are clear.

The moon does not move, and looks forward to its brightness on behalf of others.

The child's cry is deep into the bones, and he enters the peach valley immortal.

Knowledge and teaching are hidden in the heart.

Fighting the world, the emperor is still famous.

The night moon was hazy, and there was silence in the imperial city of Chang'an City. The old eunuch in the Zichen Hall leaned on the vermilion pillar in the hall, and the smell of ambergris attracted him to take a nap. Emperor Yu on the dragon collapse was drenched in cold sweat at the moment.

"Kid! Never! Child! An old voice came to Emperor Yu's mind.

"Father??? Father! Emperor Yu immediately heard the voice of his father, Emperor Huaigu, looked around, and found himself standing in a quiet forest, "Father? Is that you? ”

"Take care of your kids! The Sheng family can't be punished..."The voice sounded again, Emperor Yu felt that it was behind him, and then bypassed the big tree behind him, the scene in front of him really frightened him, a dark battlefield, the stumps of the soldiers were intertwined in the pool of blood, the flags were planted upside down on the corpses, and black smoke was everywhere, and Emperor Yu was a little out of breath.

"Father!" Emperor Yu shouted again, the old voice did not respond, just as he was about to take a step to find, he found that he couldn't take a step no matter how he walked, and when he lowered his head, several headless corpses were holding his lower body, and it was estimated that he had fainted at this time as an ordinary person, and Emperor Yu, as a generation of emperors, had also traveled through the battlefield full of corpses when he was young, and he should have the courage to naturally have;

"Who are you?" Emperor Yu stared at the headless corpse holding him beside him, looking at the figure like several women.

"The Sheng family can't be punished~" The voices of the headless corpses from nowhere were full of ghosts and ghosts.

"Get out of the way!" Emperor Yu raised his eyebrows angrily, broke free from the shackles of the corpse, and shouted in all directions: "The widow is ordered by the first emperor!" Tu Xiong! Mountains! Slay the ghosts! Rebuke! If you don't leave quickly! The widow will pour the power of the Nine Dragons, step on the graves of Er, and then be homeless, the king of Hades will not accept it, and the evil ghosts will bully, so that you will never enter reincarnation! ”

This roar followed Emperor Yu as the center and bypassed in all directions, and the corpses on the battlefield disappeared in an instant. Emperor Yu shouted again, "Father! What are you looking for? ”

"Take care of your kids! Sheng Family..."A voice came from nowhere, gradually disappeared, and a spirit, Emperor Yu woke up from his dream.

"It's this weird dream again!" Emperor Yu knocked his head and whispered: "When people are old, they love to deal with the dead!" ”

On the one hand, the eunuch who was awakened looked at it but didn't dare to speak, waiting cautiously, anyone can have nightmares, but the Son of Heaven can't.

Dongzhou was originally divided into 36 countries, perennial war, the people are not living, after the emperor of the Central Plains nostalgic journey for decades, pacified the Quartet, established the largest Central Plains Dynasty in Dongzhou, and then drove the defeated to the far north, pardoned it as a vassal country, and finally Dongzhou returned to a vein, increasingly peaceful.

There is a powerful military division under the account of Emperor Huaigu, named Sheng Zhan, who is very strategic in attacking the city, and the achievements of the Central Plains today, Sheng Zhan can take the lead. On the day of the knighthood, Sheng Zhan asked for the order to be relieved and returned to the field, Emperor Huaigu was extremely displeased, he understood Sheng Zhan's thoughts, and was worried that he would die and cook the dog. Since both parties have a problem, it is better to fulfill his wish and change to their own freedom. The edict of nostalgia for the past announced that the world would "flourish forever for agriculture" and be relegated to the southern Yongjiang generation. Who would have thought that under the leadership of Sheng Zhan, ten years later, in Yongjiang, a prosperous city rose from the ground, and Emperor Huaigu personally gave the name - Yujiang City.

This is 30 years, Emperor Huaigu died, Sheng Zhan only found that the so-called flying birds do not seem to have happened in this dynasty, the title is replaced, and the generations of talents are in and out of the official office, maybe this generation cherishes the hard-won peace too much. Soon after, Sheng Zhan also drove the crane to the west, and the prosperity was still that prosperity, not only in Yujiang City, but also in the whole country, and Guotai Min'an was a true portrayal.

The death of the older generation seems to tell the replacement of this generation. After the new monarch Emperor Yu ascended the throne, he inherited the character of the former emperor who did everything himself, and was more sympathetic to the people, caring for the ministers, and caring for the older generation of capable military generals. The peaceful and prosperous era lasted for a long time, so long that almost no one remembered the mourning everywhere, but now.....

In a daze, Emperor Yu sighed that he was really old, and he was very puzzled, for so many years, he had done what his father had done every day, but he was getting more and more uneasy, he was afraid of dying, not that he would never see the world again, but that he felt that he had not been competent enough to be the emperor over the years, and there had always been a decision in his heart, which was difficult to decide; The increasingly prosperous country has slowly exposed many problems, from the gangs of the ministers in the country, to the laziness and slackness of the soldiers guarding the city, and even the royal family, harem, and so on. How many years have passed, the people around him seem to have begun to change slowly, not only the body is aging, but also the heart, many people no longer have the sincerity in their hearts, Emperor Yu feels that if he dies, the world will be in chaos!!

On the second day, Emperor Yu called all the princes together, originally wanting to have a meal together, but as soon as he sat down, he felt the heaviness of the atmosphere, the prince was already at the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and his eyes were already with a trace of confusion and anxiety, and he was no longer the high-spirited teenager he was back then.

"Will the world think my father will live too long? Even if... When Emperor Yu thought of this, he immediately stopped thinking, but then he thought that he had naturally sat in this position, and compared with the present, he found that there were indeed many differences, and he couldn't help but feel pity again.

looked around again, looking at several other princes, some of their eyes were sluggish, some of their faces were ignorant, some were magnificent, and some were as stable as Mount Tai. Over the years, I have been busy with national politics and neglected the cultivation of children, but fortunately, under the education of several old ministers, in general, it is not so bad, but it is also a little unsatisfactory, for the prince who made mistakes, Emperor Yu always does not take it to heart, and feels that no matter how wrong it can be, anyway, he is protected by the royal family, and he has received formal education, and he will not do anything that hurts the heavens and reason. I don't know if he was anxious or unwilling, he slapped the table hard, and then clenched his fist and withdrew. Everyone present was frightened, and the palace ladies knelt down one after another. At this time, the eighth prince pursed his lips and said softly

"Father, pay attention to your body, it must be an unsatisfactory thing in the court, the children are here today, you can share your father's worries" The others looked at each other, and then echoed.

Emperor Yu took a deep breath, he was really in a hurry just now, and he was holding too many things in his heart.

"For my father, I don't know how much time there is, to live up to the world, but I feel a little indebted to you, today everyone is here, I want to hear what ambitions and ambitions you have in the future, ang! Haha". Emperor Yu suddenly felt that he was a little out of shape, and gently patted the little prince who was sitting next to him.

The third prince took the lead and said, "The child just wants his father to live forever and keep my country safe forever." ”

"What stupid things to say, long live is fake, your imperial grandfather was not majestic back then, it's not that he can't even pass a hundred years, say something practical, cough cough" Emperor Yu said while laughing, coughing a few times from time to time, the palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and handed over the gilded spittoon and was gently pushed away by Emperor Yu.

"It's... Child..."The third prince was speechless for a while.

"Come on! Old eight, you say" Emperor Yu pointed to the eighth prince.

Ba'er feels that now the national defense is solid, the country is peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the economy is increasing day by day. What we have to do is to learn more from the experience of the ancients, prevent problems before they happen, and eliminate all possible disasters. "The eighth prince has always been so confident, he always disdains to make comparisons with other princes of similar age, and is bent on taking the prince as an example.

"Very good, very good, eighth, this Taoli Academy, which is in charge of the imperial examination, just needs manpower, and you and Han Yushi have a teacher-student relationship, and if you go there tomorrow to take office, you can also help those old guys." Emperor Yu appreciated the words of the Eighth Prince very much, and his smile appeared again, "I'm free!" I'll go to your place again, I haven't seen the crane for a long time! ”

"He'er also misses his father!" Every time the name Crane is mentioned, the Eighth Prince always has a sense of pride, and his expression is quite proud.

"Strange to say! When your mother had a difficult birth, just when everyone was helpless, this crane landed in front of the door, and a cry brought you to the world! It's really fairy! The emperor recalled the past with more enjoyment on his face, and the days of freedom in those years no longer existed.

"Father, I only agree with half of the starling's statement" At this time, the thirteenth prince suddenly stood up.

"You can agree with me even if you're a martial idiot? Tell me, by the way, I'll give you a lesson. The Eighth Prince also stood up, his right hand raised slightly, not wanting to lose his demeanor.

Emperor Yu raised his eyebrows, and said happily, "Thirteen, you say."

"Yes! Father. Father! I agree with what Starling said, we need to recruit talented people, give them benefits, and let them help us govern the world..."

"Thirteen, Hugh is presumptuous, what does it mean to "help us"? It's to help my father. The Seventh Prince said coldly.

"What's the difference, isn't my father's emperor's ours?" The Thirteenth Prince was a little stunned, and looked at Emperor Yu blankly, for fear that he was really wrong.

"Bold, the father is..."The Seventh Emperor was about to explain when he was interrupted by Emperor Yu.

"Old Seven, you let Thirteen finish" Emperor Yu finished with a smile, but there was a trace of indifference in his eyes, and a thought popped up in his heart, "Qi'er, you are very dangerous like this." ”

The thirteenth prince was still a little confused, and didn't understand what he said wrong, "Father, I think we need talents, but not just studying, soldiers also need to train, over the years, I have found that many people in the military camp have returned to their hometowns, and even many generals have begun to become businessmen, I think Father, you are a little biased, there are fewer and fewer generals in the court, and you don't have a few more, such as... Hey, hey".

"Haha, when you become a relative, my father will let you go to guard the frontier, and when you come back, you will be crowned a general." For the thirteen princes, Emperor Yu loved him very much, one was that his mother died early, and the other was that the thirteen princes were loyal, loved to practice martial arts, and loved to fight with his buddies since he was a child.

"Is Father really? Okay, okay, I'll try harder. The Thirteen Princes originally intended to sit down happily just to hear these words.

"Xiao'er, as the crown prince, you have been an assistant for many years, don't you really see anything?" Emperor Yu spoke slowly again and looked at the crown prince.

"Father! Erchen, Erchen saw a lot of problems. The prince stood up and said, "What the eighth brother said, the sons and daughters only agree with half of it. ”

"Aang? Brother Huang, do you also want to be a general? I... I'll bring it up first, you can't rely on the fact that you're already married and rush to the frontier first..."The thirteenth prince stood up suddenly, a little aggrieved and a little stingy.

The crown prince is almost a generation older than the thirteenth prince, and he usually loves his younger brothers and sisters, and the younger generation respects him very much, but despite this, the thirteenth prince is still a little angry, feeling that the prince wants to grab his position.

Several of the older princes couldn't help laughing, and Emperor Yu also laughed. In the eyes of outsiders, this scene is really warm.

"Thirteen, you let me finish talking first, I don't practice martial arts, I'm not interested in your general" The prince put away his smile "Erchen agrees with the eighth brother's opinion, for the monarch to let the world's talents be used for his own use, but Erchen has different opinions on the solid national defense and the peace of the country. ”

"Father, everyone, Thirteen just said a very important point, emphasizing literature over martial arts! The sons assisted their father and emperor for many years, dealing with all kinds of officials in the palace, and found that military attachΓ©s rarely had the right to speak, and even some military attaches needed to be privately attached to civilian forces, which led to another problem "official party", now the forces in the DPRK and China are of different sizes, although they are used by their fathers, but their hearts are not different, and large-scale brawls often occur in the imperial city nowadays. ”

"Oh? Xiao'er, have you found anything lately? Emperor Yu asked with interest.

"Tell my father, my son has no conclusive evidence, but I have heard about it." The prince frowned and said hurriedly.

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't have evidence, so as not to spread it to outsiders, but say that our royal family doesn't trust the ministers, but what you said is true, haha" When Emperor Yu said the second half of the sentence, the prince of the country patted his shoulder.

"Father..."The crown prince's whole person instantly went from head to toe.

Emperor Yu waved his hand, he really didn't have a good way to change the situation. If you want to say that the emphasis is on literature and light on military force, anyway, there are few wars, although there is friction on the border, but the subject country has never lacked national tribute every year, and there has never been a rebel army in the country, the princes everywhere are childhood brothers, and there is no so-called succession incident when they sit on this dragon chair, and they also rely on the majesty of the emperor at that time and their own ability, it is because it is too peaceful, there will be some people who are fed and lazy, people's desires are too terrible, the more Emperor Yu thinks about it, the more he blames his own lack of ability, he has always weighed the power led by several major officials, My body is getting worse and worse, if I leave one day, will the children be able to fight those old foxes? And some of the children seem to have been bewitched by foxes.

"Everyone remember, the world is impermanent, blood is thicker than water, no matter what happens in the future, even if your father is gone, you must also assist well... Assisted... Assist the next king! Emperor Yu still didn't say anyone's name, as if holding back something, he got up and left. The prince's face was gloomy, and what he had done seemed to have been exposed, but why? My father knew about it and was indifferent, and he didn't take me seriously at all?

The brothers' usual relationship has been extremely stiff, I don't know if Emperor Yu is confused or something else finally said such a sentence, and then looked at the other princes who had their own thoughts, their foreheads were already covered with beads of sweat, and they buried their heads deeply.
