In the early spring of March, the weather in Luoyang gradually warms, and there is no longer a winter precipice. It is rare to have the sound of silk and bamboo wind music in the South Palace of Luoyang, the crisp and melodious chime sound of the chime sweeps the court, and the low and rich sound of Xun is mixed in. Liu Bang on the Nangong Hualong treasure couch hugged Meiji on his left and held the wine bottle on his right, laughing and teasing Meiji in his arms with a smile on his face, and all the ministers in the audience were happy with the emperor's joy, all without scruples, just eating and drinking, occasionally echoing the emperor on the high platform, and then he was appreciating the slender flower and jade girl Ji Ying Song Yan dance, and even went straight to the female Ji and hugged them to sing and dance with her. The Bayu dance, which has sonorous music and is called a war dance, caused Liu Bang to laugh at the subordinates and on the stage. Liu Bang has not really laughed since he came to Kanto to crusade against Chen Xuan, seeing that the emperor is full of interest today, and the ministers are also out of class one after another to join in the wild and fierce Bayu dance, dozens of people are dancing happily, Liu Bang also watched more and more energetic, unconsciously drank cup after cup, and when he was happy, he also hummed to the beats of the people dancing below.

"The emperor's ——," The eunuch outside the palace walked through the dense courtiers' gaps when he entered the door, and walked to Liu Bang's side in a panic. When the ministers in the audience saw that Liu Bang suddenly got up and his face was full of different colors, they took it upon themselves to hurriedly wave off the female concubine, and stood up one after another and asked the emperor what was the matter. Liu Bang thought twice in his abdomen, but without saying a word, he waved away the minister of civil and military affairs with one hand, muttered a few words in the eunuch's ear with a calm face, and then strode back to the inner palace with his hands behind his back.

Not long after, a eunuch led a middle-aged man in a blue cloth cloth into the palace where Liu Bang was located. The eunuch closed the door of the palace and withdrew, and the middle-aged man knelt on the ground with a poof, and gave Liu Bang, who was standing in front of the hollow carved window, a big salute, "The emperor is happy for thousands of years." ”

"Get up," Liu Bang couldn't wait to get the man up, stepped in front of the man in three steps, and asked the man with a solemn face, "Who is the man?" Why Peng Yue rebelled, let's talk about it in detail. ”

The man replied solemnly, "The servant tongue is the servant of Peng Yue, the king of Liang." The servants wanted to sue the king of Liang and his subordinates for plotting against Liang. ”

Liu Bang circled around the man who claimed to be tongue-talking, and in view of Chen Feng's matter, Liu Bang didn't dare not take it seriously, and asked him disdainfully and eagerly, "Why did you sue him for your grudge against him?" Loyalty to the Han family? He was stunned for a moment, looking at Liu Bang's sharp old eyes, but he was so frightened that he couldn't answer for a long time. Liu Bang snorted coldly, pointed at his tongue and raised his voice, "Although King Peng was born as a thief, he will not betray me, you have to chew the root of your tongue!" "Peng Yue really wants to rebel," Yu Yong gradually calmed down, stepped forward and said categorically to Liu Bang, "Does the emperor remember sending an envoy to Liang to reproach Peng Yue?" ”

Liu Bang heard this, but he narrowed a pair of old eyes and carefully recalled the conscription of Peng Yue, because Peng Yue said that he was sick and could not come, Liu Bang was furious and sent Liang Di to reproach Peng Yue, but he did not find that Peng Yue had any objections. Seeing Liu Bang's puzzled and uncertain face, he asked to explain in detail what happened before and after Peng Yue's rebellion.

On the same day, Liu Bang sent an envoy to Liangdi to reproach Peng Yue, Peng Yue knew that the emperor was afraid immediately, and wanted to go to Handan to explain the situation to Liu Bang in detail to make amends. Don't you hear about the capture of the Marquis of Huaiyin? If you go, you will be captured, and the king will not go. Peng Yue scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously, feeling that there was some truth in what he said, but at the same time he was afraid of the emperor's rejuvenation. Peng Yue couldn't make up his mind, and said to Hu in a panic, "If the widow doesn't go, the emperor will suspect me and be angry with me, and the widow still has to go." "King Liang," Hu said to Peng Yue anxiously, "You know that the emperor is suspicious, why do you still go?" Zang Di is dead, Li Ji is dead, Han Wangxin is dead, the Marquis of Huaiyin is also dead, and Chen Feng of Hebei will not be able to die himself. They are all princes with different surnames, but the surname of the world is Liu, do you think the emperor will let the forces of the opposite sex exist? Yang, the emperor is forced to quell the rebellion of those who plot rebellion; Yin, the emperor took advantage of the situation to cut off so many of you princes with different surnames one by one. The original Zhao King Zhang Ao was not at fault, but the emperor took advantage of the situation to demote him to the Marquis of Xuanping, Weng's son-in-law is still like this, not to mention your surname Peng, not to mention that you offended him during the battle of Qixia. The emperor is waiting for your personal visit, Wang Mo goes. ”

Peng Yue was stunned for a long time, obviously a little scared and worried about Hu Yue's words. After looking around the hall, Hu Yue approached Peng Yue and whispered, "It's better to do the opposite." "What?" Peng Yue was shocked and reprimanded him harshly, "Do you want to be punished?" Hu Yu said firmly, "You know the emperor's temperament better than me, can people who have repeatedly offended him die well?" Peng Yue looked at Hu Yu in a daze, but he didn't answer for a long time, and obviously listened to Hu Yu's words. Seeing the situation, Hu Xuan continued, "The rebellion of Chen Fan in Hebei has not been pacified, and the emperor does not dare to fight your idea, if Chen Fan is pacified, Liu Bang will inevitably lead the army south to Liang State to ask you for the blame." In this way, the Liang Kingdom will be suspended, and the King of Liang will also be suspended. It is better to take advantage of the situation and rebel, take advantage of Chen Feng to raise troops in Hebei, and Wang to raise troops in Liangdi, so victory or defeat can not be said. ”

Peng Yue thought about it carefully, and didn't dare to make a conclusion easily, but in the end, he waved his hands impatiently and refused to take it, "No, no, no, don't mention the rebellion." If the widow has no rebellious thoughts, no rebellious actions, the emperor will not eradicate the Liang State, and you don't have to talk nonsense. The widow is sick and is going to rest. As soon as the words fell, Peng Yue had already hurried out of the hall, shaking his head and leaving quickly. King Liang——" Before Hu Yu finished speaking, Peng Yue had already disappeared, and Hu Yu had to leave with a long sigh.

On the third day, Hu Yue entered the palace to persuade Peng Yue, but Peng Yue knew that Hu Yue had come to lobby him for rebellion, so he thought that he was ill. Early in the morning of this day, Peng Yue was sending his servant to hunt in the beast garden in the north of Liang Kingdom, but just after leaving the city gate, he encountered Hu Yu who was waiting for him at the city gate. Peng Yue let out a long sigh of 'sigh' in the car, but still asked Yu Yong to invite Hu Yu to his car and went to the beast garden with him. Hu Yu once again said about rebelling against Liu Bang, but Peng Yue didn't seem to hear it, and he only cared about shooting with a bow and hunting, ignoring Hu Yue's words, but Hu Yue took the bow and arrow in Peng Yue's hand and fell to the ground angrily, blaming Peng Yue loudly, "King Liang!" The fire has burned Liang Kingdom, how can you still be interested in hunting? If it's inconvenient for you to gather soldiers, the ministers will do it! Peng Yue was suddenly angered by Hu Yue's actions, and he made a thunderous accusation, "You are presumptuous!" Peng Yue and Hu Yu stared at each other for a long time, and when he heard the two shouting and scolding, he hurriedly ran over, but saw that the two were staring at each other, and he poked Hu Yue's back to signal him to apologize to Peng Yue, Hu Yu knew that he had made a mistake, and his attitude immediately softened, and he knelt down to apologize to Peng Yue, but he was anxious to cry and persuade Peng Yue, "If there is no preparation, Liang Guo will rest!" The minister is not polite to the king, not intentionally, the minister is worried about tens of thousands of people in the Liang country. Peng Yue's attitude was also a little relaxed, signaling his tongue to help him up, and comforting him with his hand, "The widow knows that it is even more impossible to rebel for tens of thousands of people." There is a reason for the death of Zang Tu and others, and there is no fault for the outnumbered, and the emperor will not crusade against the Liang State. After that, Peng Yue pretended to be relaxed again, picked up the bow and arrow with a smile, and turned over to the horse to find the hunting target.

"Alas!" He shook his head and sighed. Tongue Yong listened to his heart, and heard what Peng Yue Yu said about rebellion, so Tongue Yong tentatively asked Hu Yu about rebellion, but Hu Yu ignored Tongue Yong without saying a word, and went back on foot. Tongue Yong only had a sense of irony that was not taken seriously, and looked at Hu Yu with a cold face.

One day, because Kaifeng is still a little cold, Peng Yue sent Tongue Yong to drive the old father to the south of the slightly warmer Chen Liu, to live for a while, the car did not travel too far but came to the news that the old father had died, Peng Yue was shocked, hurriedly ran out of dozens of miles, but saw the car driven by Tongue Yong overturned to the ground and had dispersed to see the car, Tongue Yong's left leg was pressed by the body. "Where's the old father?" Peng Yue didn't seem to care about the tongue that was pressed by the car, but he only consulted his father with a loud roar. Tongue Yong didn't dare to look at Peng Yue guiltily, but looked away from the scattered car. Peng Yue looked at it with his tongue, and immediately understood that the old father seemed to be in the unrecognizable car, and suddenly a wave of anger rushed to his head and ordered left and right, "Send the widowed old father back to the palace." The people on the left and right hurriedly and carefully pulled away the destroyed car and found the dead Peng Yue's father. King Liang ...... "His tongue was ashamed, and although he felt wronged, he didn't dare to speak."

"Tie the tongue back to me!!" Peng Yue was shaking angrily, and the people on the left and right didn't care that the left leg of the tongue was pressed, but they pulled the tongue out from under the car like pulling weeds, and the painful tongue 'hissed'.

Back in the palace, Peng Yue did not reduce his anger, and ordered the left and right to lock up the tongue, intending to kill the tongue on the day of the funeral for the old father to pay tribute to the old father. When he heard the news, he hated Peng Yue very much, thinking that he would follow Peng for more years, Peng Yue wanted to kill him regardless of a trace of friendship, but when he hated, he was also jealous and panicked, turning around in circles in the dark hut, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and a pair of resentful eyes had long been gone, and he gritted his teeth and said to himself, "If you are ruthless, I will be unrighteous." He looked around for an exit, and found a half-man-wide hole above the north of the black house, but he crawled out with his tongue squeezing and shrinking.

found out that the emperor was in Luoyang, and Yu Yong went straight to Luoyang. At dawn, he arrived in Luoyang, ate indiscriminately in the wine shop, and hurried into the palace to see Liu Bang, and discussed Peng Yue and Hu Yu to raise troops in Liangdi while the Chen Feng rebellion was not pacified.

Liu Bang listened to the tongue Yong, and was stunned for a long time during the banquet, and said that the sage was difficult to meet, and Peng Yue actually wanted to oppose him at this time, Liu Bang felt a deep pain in his heart, and temporarily waved away the tongue. Zhang Liang and Chen Ping behind the tent came out with each other, and seeing Liu Bang in a daze during the banquet, Zhang Chen and Chen glanced at each other, and both stepped forward and waved their hands, "Your Majesty." ”

'Knock knock-' Liu Bang was impatiently angry, knocking on the case, 'Bang-', Liu Bang overturned the case angrily, bamboo slips, pen holders, and jade ornaments were scattered all over the place, and Zhang Chen and the others didn't dare to say a word.

"Anti-anti-anti! It's all the other way around! Liu Bang waved his sleeves angrily, but he didn't suppress his anger and asked Zhang Chen and the others unceremoniously, "Zhang Liang!" Chen Ping! Do you also want to oppose me? Zhang Chen and the others looked at each other in surprise and looked at Liu Bang in shock, but Zhang Liang looked at Liu Bang with a look of surprise and staring at Liu Bang, which seemed to be a wordless and domineering rebuttal. Liu Bang saw Zhang Chen and the others staring at him, and suddenly felt that he was talking inappropriately, but he immediately smiled, went down the steps and attached his hands to their backs, and hurriedly corrected what he had just said, "Ahhhhhhhhhh The second prince is not careful, I am angry before I can say crazy words, and the second prince is not careful. Zhang Chen and the others nodded lightly, not paying attention to Liu Bang's words, but they all bowed their hands to him, "Your Majesty, the words of the tongue are talented, we have a discussion, there is a rebellion in Hebei, and you can't make enemies at this time, and Peng Yue has always followed you, so there is no reason to rebel." Tongue Yong sued Peng Yue for rebellion because of hatred, and the emperor wanted to be clear. ”

"Han Xin and Chen Feng were both denounced by their subordinates, and now Peng Yue is too." Liu Bang said to Zhang Chen and the others, "If there is a grudge, they will denounce each other, there is no grudge, they are as good as molasses, I will know those rebellious things?" If there is a grudge, it cannot be explained that the person who denounced it lied, I asked the two to listen behind the tent, and I didn't expect you to come up with an idea, but I just wanted the two of you to know that Peng Yue was rebellious, and I had to take him, but he shouldn't have rebelled. ”

Chen Ping didn't say a word, but Zhang Liang said to Liu Bang, "Peng Yue is the king of Liang after all, how can he easily determine that he is conspiring against him?" Ordinary princes have to investigate several times, but now there is only a trace of turmoil, and the emperor must check it. Such an impatient conclusion may be unjust. ”

Liu Bang was a little unhappy with Zhang Liang's words, as if Zhang Liang meant that he couldn't tolerate Peng Yue and wanted to tie her up and ask her for guilt. Liu Bang stiffened his face and smiled perfunctorily at Zhang Liang, and entered the inner palace alone without saying a word.

Chen Ping's eyes rolled slightly, and he said to Zhang Liang with a smile, "The words of the Marquis may not hurt the emperor. ”

"Gong Chen," Zhang Liang said with a straight face, but there was a kind of helplessness in his righteousness, "If I don't say so, I'm afraid King Liang's life will be in danger." The founding feats are like the fruits of late autumn withering one by one. The Han family has no available warriors. There was a sadness and regret in Zhang Liang's eyes, as well as the bitter helplessness of not being able to help Peng Yue.

Chen Ping knew what Zhang Liang meant, and felt the same way as Zhang Liang, Chen Ping also smiled helplessly, "Master Hou and I will be like the fruits of late autumn in the future, right?" ”

"You won't." Zhang Liang said to Chen Ping with a faint smile.

"Neither will you." Chen Ping raised his eyebrows slightly, and also smiled slightly at Zhang Liangdao.
