Chapter 138.Liu Qi's Layout (20)
The controversy of Confucianism made Liu Qi realize the importance of thought, the Han Dynasty was established for nearly 60 years, all relying on the development of Huang Lao's art to the present, and now there are Xiongnu harassment in the north from time to time, and there is the heart of the vassal states and the disagreement with Chang'an, and the vassal states are ready to move...... Many unsettling factors threaten the safety of the Han from time to time, and it is time to change the thinking and change the law, so he focuses on letting Wei Juan instill a lot of Liu Che's Confucian thoughts, so that it can be useful in the future.

One day at noon, Liu Qi was lying on the bed in the greenhouse hall frowning and thinking about something, and suddenly sat up and shouted: "Xuanyu Shi Dafu Prince Taifu Weiwan is here." ”
Wei Juan didn't have much time to walk in and was about to kneel and kowtow, Liu Qi waved his hand and said, "Wei Aiqing is exempt from courtesy, and he will sit down when he gets closer." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Wei Wan walked to Liu Qi in a small stride and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Liu Qidao: "Wei Aiqing, now I always feel that my body is not as good as day by day, if I go to see Gaozu one day, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the prince to control the mess of leaving the Han Dynasty." ”
"Your Majesty is too worried, Your Majesty is in good health, and it is too early to say this. ”
"Not early, not early, what is the biggest threat to Wei Aiqing?"
"This, this ......"
"What's there to squeak about, is it the Huns in the north? ”
"Your Majesty, it is not the forces from the outside that threaten the Han, but the inside. ”
"Oh, is Wei Aiqing talking about the vassal states, yes, I think so too, but how can I control the power of the vassal states?"
"The minister has a plan, I don't know if it's possible?"
"Just talk about it. ”
"After the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, His Majesty canceled the privilege of appointing officials and collecting taxes on his own in the kingdom, the number of subordinate officials of the kingdom decreased, the prime minister of the kingdom was changed to the prime minister, and the minister of the kingdom had the mission of supervising the princes and kings, and the princes and kings were not allowed to govern civil affairs, but there were still some privileged vassal states that did not implement these regulations, and now Your Majesty can issue a holy decree, and all kingdoms must implement these regulations, and it is expressly ordered that the princes cannot govern the country, and Your Majesty's worries will be much less. ”
"Good idea, I will issue an edict tomorrow to change the name of all vassal states to prime ministers, so that the vassal states cannot govern the country. ”
"My Emperor Shengming. ”
The next day, Liu Qi sent this order to the whole country, the vassal states that have implemented such a system have no objections, and several who have not implemented this system have objections can only be held in their hearts, this holy decree was sent to Suiyang of Liang State, and Liu Wu, the king of Liang who was lying on the sickbed, was not very calm and received the final blow, and called Han Anguo and said: " This king was crowned king for thirty-five years, only this Liang king has been doing twenty-four years, taking up most of the time, this holy decree is also the king's own fault, the original has been fighting for the throne and worked hard, and finally fell all over the body, don't you know that the position of this king is not less than the taste of being the emperor, why didn't you understand this reason. ”
Han Anguo listened to Liu Wu's words, and took a step closer to comfort him: "It's not too late for the prince to understand now, and you can be your own prince with peace of mind in the future, this land still belongs to the prince." ”
Liu Wu looked at the outside of the hall, and said with a wry smile: "Hahaha, everything is too late, too late, now I am terminally ill, there is no medicine to cure the king's illness, you can go to Chang'an to be an official after the king leaves, I have written a letter here, and I will take it to Chang'an and hand it to the queen mother, and tell the queen mother that this king loves her old man." ”
Han Anguo took the plate from Liu Wu's hand, wiped his ruddy eyes and said: "The prince is too worried, the prince can live a long life, and when the prince is sick and healthy, he can personally go to the queen mother to tell her how much he misses." ”
Liu Wu grinned and said, "Hehehe, there is no such opportunity, Han Aiqing can withdraw." ”
"The prince takes care of his body, rests well, and the minister retires. Han Anguo withdrew from the main hall and returned to the mansion, resting anxiously for a night, and before dawn he heard the bells in the palace ringing, which were low and deep.
After a while, the servants of his own house came to report: "The master is not good, the king has been bombarded last night." ”
"What, the king boomed. Han Anguo couldn't help but stand up when he heard the news, then knelt on the ground again, kowtowed four times in the direction of the palace and said, "King, go slowly." ”
Han Anguo stumbled to the palace, the queen and the princesses knelt down for a long time, and there were weeping voices everywhere, Han Anguo came to the corpse of King Liang, and once again lay on the ground and kowtowed: "King, go slowly, the minister is late." ”
The queen immediately stopped crying, came to Han Anguo and said, "Doctor Han, please mourn, the king left suddenly, we have already messed up, and the queen's affairs still need to be arranged by the middle doctor." ”
"Queen, this matter should be reported to Chang'an immediately, the king has already explained before the bombardment, let me go to Chang'an, here I will call the prime minister over to protect the corpse, notify the city gate captains and other five senses to guard the city gate, all military attaches perform their duties to maintain the safety of Suiyang, everything is waiting for Chang'an's edict. ”
As soon as the queen heard the reason, she bowed to Han Anguo and said, "This matter is up to Dr. Lao Han." ”
Han Anguo came to Chang'an with a mission, and the gate of Weiyang Palace was reported through the Yellow Gate, Han Anguo walked into the Xuanshu Palace, and as soon as he stepped into the gate, he cried and kowtowed to Liu Qi and said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
"Doctor Han, what is the matter, get up and speak, don't be sad. ”
"Report to Your Majesty, King Liang has exploded, and I am here to report. ”
"What?" Liu Qi stood up from the mat with a pout when he heard the news, opened his mouth wide in surprise, and asked eagerly: "When did Brother Wang bang and leave peacefully?"
"Report to Your Majesty, the king seems to have a premonition, and has already arranged the future, and he went away a day ago, and walked very peacefully. ”
"That's good, that's good, I will immediately send a central envoy to deal with the aftermath of Brother Wang. ”
"Your Majesty, before King Liang went, he told the minister to go to comfort the Queen Mother, and I would like to say a word to Your Majesty. ”
"Oh, the Queen Mother will be sad when she hears the news, so I'll find a chance to tell the Queen Mother about this. ”
"Your Majesty, King Liang has an explanation before leaving, and he must let the minister hand over this plate to the Queen Mother, otherwise the minister will regret it. ”
"Oh, Brother Wang still has a slab, show it to me. ”
"Exactly. Han Anguo shuddered and took out the slab and handed it over with a little hesitation.
Liu Qi understood Han Anguo's hesitation, so he smiled and said, "Oh, since this is the last wish of the younger brother Wang, show it to the Queen Mother, go, and go with me to meet the Queen Mother." ”
"No. ”
Surrounded by everyone, he came directly to Changle Palace along the Yongdao, and the Empress Dowager Dou met Liu Qi in the Longevity Palace, and Liu Qi said: "Queen Mother, King Liang sent someone here." ”
Mrs. Dou said expressionlessly: "Oh, what's the news about Liang Guo again, how is it recently." ”
"The queen mother brought unfortunate news, and I hope that my mother will not be too sad when she hears it. ”
Empress Dowager Dou was stunned and guessed: "What, could it be that Wu'er is messing around in Liang State again, after so many years, why can't he still restrain his character, alas." ”
Liu Qi took a step closer and said softly: "Queen Mother, King Liang didn't mess around this time, Liang Guo is fine, it's King Liang himself......"
Empress Dowager Dou was suddenly startled, a sad face hit her face, and she said softly: "Could it be Wu'er......?"
"Queen Mother, yes, King Liang has already exploded. ”
"Ah, Wu'er, why didn't you come to see your mother and left, Wu'er, ......" Empress Dowager Dou's voice was already mixed with a little crying, which made people feel a little sad to hear.
"Queen Mother, Wu'er has gone, please don't be too sad, I have sent an envoy to deal with the aftermath of Brother Wang. ”
"Oh, did Wu'er have any last words when she left?" asked Empress Dowager Dou as she wiped her tears.
"The queen mother, Liang Guozhong's doctor Han Anguo brought a roll of plates, saying that Wu'er had to hand it over to the queen mother before the bombardment. ”
"Oh, Han Anguo, the person who made war exploits in the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, has been here, quickly announce him to come over, bring the plate and read it to the old woman. ”
"Queen Mother, Han Aiqing has already come. ”
Han Anguo interjected: "Queen Mother, the minister will read it to you." ”
Saying that, Han Anguo opened the board and read aloud: "Queen Mother, Wu'er has been unwell recently, which has intensified from time to time, and she feels afraid that she will soon die, thinking of the past, she is full of grief, but Wu'er's love for her mother has not changed, and her loyalty to the imperial brother has not changed. In addition, Liang Guozhong's doctor, Han Anguo, is a civil and military all-rounder...... "Han Anguo suddenly squeaked when he read this.
"What's the matter?" Liu Qi then took the plate and continued to read, "Loyal and reliable, can take on great responsibilities, and has outstanding performance in the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, everyone can see it, after Wu'er left, I implore the queen mother to say a few good words to the imperial brother, let the middle doctor go to Chang'an to be an official, so that what he has learned can be more useful, Wu'er worships again." ”
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Dou muttered: "I know, I know, you all retreat." ”
"No. Liu Qi led everyone out of the Longevity Palace, and as soon as he arrived at the greenhouse hall of Weiyang Palace, he saw a messenger holding a roll of plates and handed them to Liu Qidao: "Your Majesty, this is the special envoy to the Liang State who turned the plates halfway, saying that you must ask Your Majesty to take a look." ”
Liu Qi took it and opened it and said, "Han Anguo." ”
"The minister is here. ”
"The envoy said that after the affairs of Queen Liang are completed, how should Liang Guo be arranged, and what should be done in the future, you have been in Liang for many years, and you have a good understanding of the situation there, do you have any opinions?"
"Your Majesty, I can't talk about it, but I know that there are five sons of King Liang, all of whom have marquises, and now the key thing is who will take over the throne of King Liang. ”
"Well, who of the five sons will succeed King Liang?" Liu Qi thought hard for a long time, and suddenly patted his head and said: "Yes, all the five sons of King Liang are crowned kings, and the Liang Kingdom is divided into five, and Han Aiqing continues to be the middle doctor of these five countries to make a smooth transition of the Liang Kingdom." Tonight, Han Aiqing finished drafting the edict and returned to Liang with the will, how about it. ”
Han Anguo was nervous in his heart, because he didn't expect King Liang to write the words of praise into his suicide note, which was just counterproductive when read out in public, and a cold sweat broke out on his back from time to time, and when he heard Liu Qi's arrangement, he gladly accepted it: "Your Majesty has a thoughtful plan, and the minister will do his best to complete this matter." ”
Han Anguo and Liu Qi wrote the holy decree overnight, hurriedly returned to the Liang State, the funeral of the King of Liang was solemn and luxurious, buried in the Mangdang Mountain around Suiyang, the clear water surrounds the mountain, the green pines are all over the hillside, the hollowed out mountain is the tomb, the ridge is the tomb, the King of Liang of the brave I is resting here, his Liang State is divided into five, reducing the threat to Chang'an, and the history of the Han Dynasty has opened a new page.
