Chapter 26: Peng Yue's Death (3)
Three days later, Peng Yue, who complained along the way, finally arrived in Zheng County, and when he drank water and rested in the wilderness, he suddenly saw two lines of majestic teams in front of him, and the Fengluan frame in the middle of the two lines of teams squeaked and squeaked, and there was a red Luo umbrella cover, and the huge team stepped on the young grass of the early green slowly. The people on the road were already kneeling on the ground in twos and threes, and there was no flag before the car was driven, Peng Yue didn't know who was in the car, and he knew that he must be a big man when he saw such a big show. Peng Yue quietly asked a middle-aged man kneeling side by side with him who was sitting in the car, and the middle-aged man whispered back to Peng Yue, saying that the queen was going to Luoyang in the next few days. Peng Yue looked back at the golden car that had just passed, the anger in his heart rushed to his head, because he hated the emperor and hated the noble woman in the car who had a close relationship with the emperor, Peng Yue suddenly stared at the luxurious car in the middle with his eyes like a hook, and his two fists were clenched tightly.
Peng Yue got up, spat fiercely at Jin Jia who was far away, and then rolled his eyes and left. After walking a distance, Peng Yue also thought about the way, complaining about the emperor's unwisdom, complaining that Zhao Yao had wronged him, and the resentment in his heart was more than half, walking all the way, Peng Yue's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked back at the Jin Jia who was walking away, Peng Yue's heart seemed to have turned a sharp turn, and he was looking for the Jin Jia of Lu Hou with an anxious and hopeful face. Peng Yue has always known the status of Empress Lu in Liu Bang's heart and the status of the court, and Empress Lu said that Liu Bang would always listen carefully and screen the useful, at least he would not immediately bounce back unceremoniously like a spring, and Liu Bang would always be a little attentive to Empress Lu's words. Although Peng Yue knew that Han Xin was killed by Empress Lu, he had a little more awe of Empress Lu in his heart, but he also knew that Han Xin was innocent of the traitor Chen Xian and died, and when he thought that he was indeed innocent, he was wronged by Zhao Yao, so that he was exiled by the emperor to the desolate Tsing Yi County of Shu, and the grievances in his heart immediately came to his heart, and he missed his hometown Changyi more and more. "Waitβ" Peng Yue shouted and chased after Lu Hou's car that had gone away.
Peng Yue shouted several times in a row, and Empress Lu's car finally stopped, and a confessor hurriedly greeted Peng Yue and asked him unceremoniously, daring to shout at Her Royal Highness the Queen's Luan. Peng Yue snorted tiredly, and didn't look at the confessor, but pulled away the confessor and drove straight to Lu Hou's car. 'Poof-', Peng Yue didn't say a word and kowtowed three times in a row to Lu Hou in the car on the ground. Empress Lu in the car lifted the curtain when she heard the sound, but saw Peng Yue kneeling opposite her in embarrassment, Empress Lu said in surprise and surprise, "King Peng? As he spoke, he had already left the car and was helped down from side to side. Empress Lu personally helped Peng Yue up, "King Peng." Peng Yue got up, but then lowered his head and cried, making Empress Lu at a loss, not knowing what to do. Empress Lu took Peng Yue to a distance of 100 meters, and asked Peng Yue in detail what happened to him, why he didn't find the emperor in Luoyang to solve it, but he ended up in embarrassment. Peng Yue was even more bitter and cried at this time, and then 'poof-' knelt on the ground and shouted, "Peng Yue is wronged, wronged." Queen Mother, please save me. Empress Lu once again helped up Peng Yue, who was crying with tears, and saw that Peng Yue was indeed sad and an outstanding hero of the Han family, Empress Lu had to agree to Peng Yue's request first, and asked Peng Yue again what happened. Peng Yuecai 1510 did not commit rebellion, but was falsely accused of rebellion, and was exiled by the emperor to Tsing Yi County, Shu before and after, he actually said it to Empress Lu word for word, and then asked Empress Lu three times to intercede with the emperor for him, hoping that the emperor would allow him to return to his hometown Changyi for the sake of being a meritorious hero of the Han family. Empress Lu listened carefully, felt sorry for Peng Yue's experience, and even cried, and comforted Peng Yue again and again, saying that the emperor was just listening to slander, and he would not be exiled to Shu. Peng Yue saw the situation and burst into tears, begging Empress Lu to intercede with the emperor and allow him to return to his hometown. Empress Lu wiped away her tears and nodded to Peng Yue firmly, "Don't worry, wait for me to talk to the emperor." "Ahh The servant Peng Yue thanked the queen for her mother's grace, and reported it in the next life. Peng Yue was excited and grateful to Empress Lu and wanted to kneel down again, but was supported by Empress Lu in time, "The prince followed the palace to Luoyang, and I will tell the emperor for you." Peng Yue happily gave up his hand and said 'Oh', and drove all the way to Luoyang with Lu Hou's car.
The arrival of Empress Lu caught Liu Bang off guard, Liu Bang gave Empress Lu to wash the dust, after some chat, Liu Bang pulled Empress Lu to the banquet and asked about the matter of Guanzhong for several months, Empress Lu replied one by one, and when she said that she would execute Han Xin privately in the future before and after obtaining Liu Bang's consent, Liu Bang listened energetically, and couldn't help but move the mat to Lv Hou, and asked Lv Hou to talk about the before and after of Han Xin's death, and Lv Hou did not dare to hide it and said it word for word. "Alas!" Liu Bang sighed, but his face was obviously happy and pitiful to Han Xin, happy that Han Xin died in the hands of Empress Lu, and happy that the Han family reduced one of the biggest threats; The pity is that Han Xin has been fighting with him for several years, making contributions to him, and the pity is that a generation of soldiers died at the hands of women, and since then there has been one less military genius in the world, thinking of the bits and pieces of his past cooperation with Han Xin, Liu Bang was sad for Han Xin's death, and couldn't help but sigh, "Han Xin...... Actually dead? Suddenly, Liu Bang's eyes lit up, and he stared at Lu Hou with round eyes and reprimanded loudly, "Lu Pheasant is bold!" The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, don't you understand? What is the crime of executing a meritorious person privately? Empress Lu stared at Liu Bang in surprise for a long time, as if she understood his meaning from his face, Empress Lu immediately stepped back from the table and knelt in front of Liu Bang to respectfully lead the guilt, "The concubine is guilty." "Punish you for one year, and I will take back the queen's golden seal for the time being." "In accordance with the will of God."
"Get up," Liu Bang looked around the hall and deliberately said loudly to Lu Hou, "I'm tired, help me rest." Empress Lu hurriedly got up and helped Liu Bang to the inner hall. Liu Bang sat on the couch with a hand, and said with a smile on his hand, "You know what you did, right?" You are my wife, the queen of the Han Dynasty, I have no intention of pursuing you, but I have to be an example. Empress Lu also smiled and nodded, "The concubine knows." Suddenly, they looked at each other, as if their hearts were connected.
"Does Han Xin have anything to say before he dies?" Liu Bang asked.
"It's a curse, I don't have to say it." Empress Lu smiled, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said, "He said unintentionally, regretting that he didn't listen to Kuaiche's words at the beginning, and he and His Majesty and Xiang Ji divided the world." β
"Catcher?" Liu Bang muttered softly, his eyes immediately sharpened, and he said firmly, "I have heard of this person, the strategist left by the Warring States Period, belongs to Zhang Yi and Su Qin. Liu Bang squinted his eyes as he spoke, thinking that he Liu Bang was fighting in Xingyang, but Kuaiche was trying to persuade Han Xin to take advantage of Liu Xiang's dispute and divide the world, although he did not persuade Han Xin to obey him, but he also moved Han Xin to some extent, so that when he destroyed Xiang, Han Xin mastered the 200,000 troops in Qidi but did not come, so that Xiang Ji had several opportunities to fight back, thinking of this, Liu Bang's eyes were like hooks, and the roots of his teeth were gritted, and he immediately had the idea of dealing with Kui Che in his heart.
"Your Majesty," Empress Lu saw that Liu Bang was thinking for a long time, shook his hand, looked at Liu Bang motionlessly, and asked firmly, "Don't talk about Han Xin." I want to ask Your Majesty, did Peng Yue really commit rebellion? β
Liu Bang suddenly woke up, stared at Empress Lu in surprise, and asked back for a while, "How do you know about Peng Yue?" β
"Your Majesty said bluntly that there is or is no convenience."
Liu Bang played Tai Chi, scratched the back of his head, and said with a very undetermined attitude, "I still know him somewhat, maybe not." β
"He has." Empress Lu's eyes were calm, and she said very firmly, as if she had seen Peng Yue's rebellion before and after, and she had already forgotten Peng Yue's prayer for her to intercede with the emperor, but instead turned around and said all the bad things about Peng Yue. Liu Bang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Empress Lu in confusion. Lu Hou sat close to Liu Bang, attached his hand to Liu Bang's hand, looked at Liu Bang and said with a firm attitude, "In the middle of the day, it will be a comet, the knife must be cut, and the axe must be fell; The day is not wise, it is said that the time is lost, the knife is not cut, the period of defeat, the axe is not cut, and the thief will come. If it is not clogged, it will be a river; Yingying is not saved, and the heat is helpless; The two leaves do not go, and will use the axe. Peng Yue is a really strong man, and now he is moving to Shu, which is really a disaster for His Majesty in the future, I see that Peng Yue has resentment and resentment in his eyes, why don't Your Majesty take advantage of this to get rid of him. β
Liu Bang blinked continuously in surprise, and asked Empress Lu in surprise, "Why did you ......, Peng Yue went to find you?" β
"The concubine went to Zheng County and met Peng Yue, who was going to Shu, and he begged me to intercede with you and allow him to return to his hometown Changyi, without any title. He is now in the Luoyang Post House. β
"Oh." Liu Bang nodded, he had already taken Empress Lu's words to heart, and thought about it carefully. After a long time, Liu Bang waved his hand and denied Empress Lu's words, "Don't kill him, I have already said that he is not guilty, how can I kill him again without faith." Liu Bang waved his hand again and again, disagreeing with Empress Lu's statement.
Peng Yue saw that Zang Di was dead, Han Wangxin was dead, the Marquis of Huaiyin was dead, and Chen Feng was reversed. His Majesty let him go to Shu to let his power grow stronger, which is a big threat to the Han family. Empress Lu took Liu Bang's hand and said, "Your Majesty, what if you are destroying the Buddha and the snake?" Your Majesty can't do this, so I'll do it for you, okay? β
Liu Bang couldn't wait to agree in his heart, but it was not good to show it on his face, so he pretended to think about it for a long time, and asked Empress Lu to persuade him several times. Lu Hou was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled.
Liu Bang hugged Lu Hou and asked, "How is the prince?" "Okay." "Xiao He, what are they doing?" "Rest assured, he's doing what a prime minister should do. There is me in the guan, you can rest assured. β
Empress Lu asked, "When will Your Majesty return to Guanzhong?" β
"I'll be back when I'm done with some things."
