In May Bingyin, the crown prince Liu Ying succeeded to the throne of the emperor and accepted the courtiers to worship after sacrificing the high temple. Liu Ying sat on the dragon couch in a dark black and red dragon robe, and looked at the ministers in the audience, and the twelve rows of people in front of him could not hide the heroic spirit of the young son of heaven, and the young emperor ascended the throne.

"Your Majesty the Emperor will be happy for eternity—" The courtiers solemnly bowed down to the young emperor and began to repeat the enduring greetings, which shook the temple and shook the mountains. Liu Ying waved his right hand and said with courage, "Zhu Qing is flat." The hundred courtiers stood up in unison, and stood on both sides.

"The first emperor has gone, the Han family society is inherited by me, although I am young, I am willing to learn, I wish the Han Dynasty to prosper, and I hope you will work together to help me build a brilliant cause." Liu Ying already said in an imperial style, "Junren, don't be benevolent; Righteousness, not unrighteousness; Junzheng, Mo is not upright, I am willing to lead the people of the world with righteousness. ”

"Your Majesty—" The ministers said in unison.

Liu Ying asked Xiangguo Xiao He to read his edict, "I succeeded to the throne, respected the imperial mother Lu as the queen mother, and ordered the county and the princes to have a high temple." Bestow the first rank on the people. Zhonglang and Lang Zhongman are six years old, and they are three years old, and they are four years old. The outer lang is six years old and the second level, and the middle lang is less than one year old and the first level. Wailang is less than two years old and gives money 10,000. The eunuch is still eating more than Langzhong. Confessor, shield, halberd, samurai, and donkey. The crown prince was given five doctors, and the person was five years old and second-class. For the mourners, 20,000 stone coins are given, 600 stone and more than 10,000, 500 stone and 200 stone and 5,000 stone. Those who are regarded as reprimands are 40 gold for the general, 200 gold for 2,000 stones, 6 gold for more than 600 stones, and 2 gold for 500 stones. Reduce the land rent, and restore the 15th tax. The five doctors, officials with more than 600 stones, and the eunuch emperor and the well-known are guilty of stealing weapons, all of which are praised (loose) system. Those who are guilty of punishment and those who are guilty of being punished and who are responsible for being a city are all endured to be a ghost. If a person is over 70 years old and is under the age of 10, he or she shall be punished for his crime. Moreover, the officials govern the people, and they can do their best to govern the people, so they value their rules, so they are also for the people. Today's officials, more than 600 stones, parents, wives and cohabitants, and the late officials who admire the generals, all the lieutenants, the generals and the 2,000 stone official seals, the family only gives the army, and he has nothing to do. ”

Fang said, a young soldier outside the hall ran in in a panic, and said anxiously without caring that the emperor was at the court meeting, "Your Majesty, Lu Juan, the king of Yan, led his own clan and the old department to go to the Xiongnu, and the Xiongnu Shan Yu sealed the king of Hulu in the east, and General Zhou has captured Jixian County, captured General Lu Juan, Prime Minister Yan, County Shoucheng, Taiwei Weak, Yushi Dafu Shi and others, and slaughtered the capital city. Yu Shanglan defeated Lu Juan's rebels, and defeated Lu Juan's rebels in Fuyang. General Zhou led the army to pursue to the boundary of the Great Wall, because Lu Juan and others fled to the Xiongnu, General Zhou was inconvenient to pursue, but he had completely pacified Shanggu, Youbeiping, Yuyang, Liaodong and Liaoxi counties. It turned out that this soldier was General Fan Xu, and after Fan Xu was taken away by Chen Ping that day, Zhou Bo took over military affairs and commanded the military, and immediately pulled out the army to pursue Lu Xuan. Lu Juan expected that his army could not reach the great general Zhou Bo, so he left the prime minister and the imperial historian to guard the city, and he led his own clan and the old department to garrison the Han-Hun border, preparing to wait for Liu Bang to recover from his illness, and personally entered Chang'an to apologize to him, but unexpectedly came the news of Liu Bang's death, Lu Juan did not dare to enter Beijing to see Lu Hou, so he had to flee to the Xiongnu. Lu Juan's army was originally a traitor, and he was afraid in his heart, but when Zhou Bo led the army to cover up, it was effortless.

After the soldier spoke, there was a commotion in the DPRK and China, and there was a lot of discussion. Liu Yingchu was in charge of political affairs, he was not familiar with it, and he couldn't control such a major event, and he was anxious for someone to help him, Liu Ying didn't dare to speak easily, for fear of saying something incorrect, so that Chrysostom would not change again. Liu Ying was a little anxious, and the swaying in front of her was swaying because of the panic in her heart.

"Snatch the title of King Lu Juanyan, spread it to the world, and immediately behead Lu Wan without forgiveness, pardon the innocent people of Yan Kingdom, and reward Zhou Bo. The Xiongnu are strong, it is not suitable to send troops, Lu Juan is from the Central Plains, and he is better off in Hudi. When Liu Ying was hesitant and anxious, Empress Lu slowly came out from behind the tent and issued this order to the audience without being surprised. It turned out that Empress Lu wanted to see how powerful his son was on the first day he became an emperor, but he actually encountered Lu Juan's matter, and seeing that Liu Ying was not easy to solve, Empress Lu paced out.

"The Queen Mother's words are very true." All the ministers echoed Empress Lu.

After the next dynasty, Empress Lu called Liu Ying into the Changxin Palace, and told him that the emperor should not be shocked when he encounters trouble, and he can't let the courtiers see his panic, and his own heart must not let the courtiers guess through, an emperor can only arm himself well, so that he can be enough to solve problems and see the moves, in order to rule the world well, and the courtiers can rest assured that the emperor is the backbone of the Ming Hall, if the main heart is panicked, the hearts of the courtiers will be chaotic. Liu Ying listened to everything reasonably, accepted it silently in her heart, and was deeply convinced by her mother's political humble views. Liu Ying said to Empress Lu, "I am a little nervous today, but I won't be in the future." The son remembered the words of the queen mother. Empress Lu stroked his hand and smiled, and comforted, "It's okay, take your time." Liu Ying nodded heavily, and Empress Lu told him to hurry up and eat something. Dai Qing hurriedly brought the pastry and praised Liu Ying with a smile, "Your Majesty is young and promising, and the Han family is lucky." Liu Ying smiled, ate the pastry and went to Weiyang Palace.

Empress Lu looked at the Yuzao Palace alone in front of the palace for a long time, and then asked Dai Qing to go to the Yuzao Palace together. As soon as he entered the hall, he didn't hear Qi Ji's noise, and he didn't see where he was, Dai Qing asked Zhen'er, and Zhen'er said that Mrs. Qi had been in the east hall for half a month, and she didn't let people get close to half a step. Empress Lu ran straight to the east hall, but saw Mrs. Qi kneeling in the north dressed in a vegetarian dress, praying for the first emperor Liu Bang. Empress Lu looked cold across from Qi Ji and glanced at her arrogantly and contemptuously. Mrs. Qi didn't seem to care that there was a queen Lu in front of her, so she just kept praying and praying.

"Someone—" Empress Lu called to both sides, and immediately two strong eunuchs approached respectfully. Empress Lu glanced at Mrs. Qi with disdain, squinted at her and instructed the eunuch, "Take off her plain clothes." The two eunuchs were about to make a move, but Mrs. Qi stood up, looked at Empress Lu angrily and asked, "Don't let me see him for the last time, aren't I allowed to wear linen and filial piety for him?" Empress Lu grimaced, took a step closer, and said word by word, "Mourning is not allowed!" Mrs. Qi trembled angrily, and a stream of hot tears followed, "You have already won, why be aggressive." "You say the mourners are aggressive?" The fire in Empress Lu's chest burned rapidly, and she stared at Mrs. Qi with cracked eyes, slowly forcing her back, Empress Lu gritted her teeth and said hatefully, "When you repeatedly slandered Liu Bang and deposed Liu Ying, why didn't you say that you were aggressive?" Mrs. Qi retreated but did not answer. Lu Hou pressed step by step, raised his voice and asked Mrs. Qi, "The mourning family is like this today, all forced by you, when the two of you work together to change Liu Ruyi, have you ever thought that you are aggressive?" Since ancient times, you don't understand? Don't you know about the Lihime Rebellion? Today, you deserve it, you are humble and orderly, you have forgotten. Mrs. Qi wept silently and begged Empress Lu, "After all, Liu Ying ascended the throne." Your Majesty is gone, please let me clothe him with linen and filial piety for a month. Empress Lu's jealousy ignited instantly, and he reprimanded angrily, "The mourning family can't see this in his eyes, he is dead, why are you crying?" Empress Lu shouted to the two eunuchs, "Don't take it off yet!" The eunuch grabbed Mrs. Qi and dragged her plain clothes, Mrs. Qi protected her desperately, but she was still torn to pieces by the eunuch. The eunuch handed over the torn plain clothes to Empress Lu, who immediately ordered someone to fetch torches, personally burned the plain clothes worn by Mrs. Qi for Liu Bang to ashes, and deliberately sneered at Mrs. Qi. Mrs. Qi didn't know how to vent her anger, so she could only grit her teeth and look at Empress Lu angrily, and the tears in her eyes were like a river bursting the embankment. Empress Lu sneered as if relieved.

"You hate him so much." Mrs. Qi said.

"No, I hate you." Lu Hou said, "The opposite of love is not to care, not to hate." ”

Mrs. Qi was silent, fell to the ground in frustration, staring at one place in a daze, not crying, not making trouble, not laughing.

"Someone," Empress Lu called the eunuch over again, pointed to Mrs. Qi and said, "Bring this person into Yongxiang, tie the hair and tongs, wear ochre clothes, and treat the sinners and concubines." The eunuch dragged Mrs. Qi from the ground and took her to Yongxiang for torture, and Mrs. Qi seemed to have no soul and let her take her away. When brought to Yongxiang, Mrs. Qi came to her senses, shouted and made a fuss and resolutely did not lose her hair, Yongxiang ordered to hold her head and cut off Mrs. Qi's black hair with a 'click', and cut her hair until there was no single one, like a bald child. Mrs. Qi shouted heartbreakingly, seeing that the black hair fell in front of her eyes and was powerless, Mrs. Qi shouted, "God is unfair-" and immediately fainted. Yongxiang Ling took advantage of this to quickly put pliers and shackles on her and threw her in a dark room to fend for herself.

Half a month later.

Liu Ying just came out after worshipping Lu, and met Mrs. Bo who was walking to Changxin Palace, Liu Ying greeted him with a smile, and gave Bo Ji a vegetarian salute, "My mother will be the acting queen mother in the future, when will she start?" Send each other. Bo Ji returned the courtesy, and Wen Ci said, "I am going to leave, and the mourning family will come over to say goodbye to the queen mother." "Mother-in-law, please." Liu Ying hurriedly stepped out of the way, respectfully stayed on the side and bowed her head and waited for her mother to walk by. Seeing this, Bo Ji liked the sensible Liu Ying very much, and attached her hand to Liu Ying's hand and instructed, "Your Majesty, you must govern the country well, your mother is not as good as before, you have to be more filial to her." Then he went up the stairs and into the temple.

Empress Lu was playing chess with Dai Qing, when she saw Bo Ji coming in, she smiled and beckoned her to come and sit, Dai Qing got up and helped Bo Ji to her seat, opposite Empress Lu, Bo Ji continued to be cautious in the past, kneeling respectfully and not daring to take the initiative to speak. Empress Lu poured him a cup of tea and handed it to her, and said to her, "Are you going to Daiguo the day after tomorrow?" Time is so fast, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see you and Xiao Liu Heng in the future. Bo Ji didn't dare to be careless, and replied respectfully, "If you have time, the concubine will often come back to see the Queen Mother." Lv Hou smiled, glanced at Dai Qing, Dai Qing went into the back room and took out a plate of things and put it on the case, Lv Hou pushed it in front of Bo Ji's eyes, Bo Ji slowly took away the silk with a suspicious face, and there was a jade plate in the center of the plate, and there were only two words on the jade card: moderation. Bo Ji was stunned for a moment, looked at Empress Lu, who stared at her and asked, "Zhongyong, how long can you do it?" Bo Ji hurriedly knelt down and bowed to Lu, "The Queen Mother can rest assured, the concubine and Liu Heng are untied, and a son and a mother depend on each other for life, and there is no threat to anyone." Empress Lu laughed, Dai Qing helped Bo Ji up, Bo Ji was shocked into a cold sweat, and she was shocked. Lu Hou drank tea and said, "The day after tomorrow, the mourning family will send you." Bo Ji stiffened and nodded.

After Bo Ji left, Empress Lu took Dai Qing out of the palace, drove straight to the Wei River, and when she arrived at the Wei River, Empress Lu looked at the upstream section, and couldn't help but remember that she and the emperor had sweated to repair the Wei River a few years ago, this section was downstream, and Empress Lu didn't want to recall the sad past, so she sighed. Seeing that many people along the Wei River are struggling to plough the fields and hoe the grass, the dark faces of the farmers are sunburned with oil and water, and sweat is flowing down, and there is a little boy with a bun sitting on the edge of the ridge, the sun shines on the boy's soft and tender face, beads of sweat oozing from the tip of his nose, and his round eyes keep turning with the farmers in the field. Lu Hou unconsciously became happy, and involuntarily went to the field to talk with the farmers for a while, and personally helped them hoe and plough the fields, telling the farmers that they must farm well, and there will be food to eat in the deep winter. At dusk, a large sunset reflects the red sky in the western sky, and the smoke rises in the mountain village under the western sky, and the sound of children chasing and fighting, dogs barking, looms squeaking, and the sound of various stonemasons and carpenters doing their work are harmonious and intoxicating. The farmland by the river is covered with a beautiful red veil by the sunset, the people in the field pack up their hoes and go home one after another, the farmers walk on the ridge, the big yellow dog around them follows closely, and the farmers are busy going home on the ridge. Empress Lu looked up at the western sky, and the red sunset shone on Empress Lu's face, and also reflected the land behind her.

"I love this beautiful light." Lu Hou said drunkly.

"Queen Mother, it's time to go." Dai Qingdao.
