The emperor and the general stayed in the imperial study from afternoon to evening, and Li Rongsheng left.

Emperor Hecheng asked the eunuch to find an iron box, and then the emperor carefully put the hundreds of pages of the plan for the establishment of the Firearms Bureau into the iron box, locked it, and then placed it in the most conspicuous position on his desk. And warned the most trusted but illiterate eunuch around him that the things in this iron box are very important and should not be touched by anyone.

Today is the heavy snow in the 24 solar terms.

As soon as dawn the emperor entered the imperial study, and when it was almost noon, he walked out of the imperial study and walked in the courtyard.

Emperor Hecheng remembered his father.

Eight years have passed since the death of his father, and his father once said that the king of Huainan can be believed, but the king of Huainan is the first to jump up and rebel, and he is also the only vassal king who rebelled after he succeeded to the throne. The father also said that the Xiliang Kingdom should be cautious and cautious and re-guarded, and it must not be allowed to grow, but the Xiliang has been peaceful for more than ten years, but the internal struggle has been continuous, and it has never been able to twist into a rope.

Zhao Chi, the emperor's brother who is a compatriot of Emperor Hecheng's mother, said that it turned out that what his father said was not right.

But today, Emperor Hecheng admires his father more and more. The father's far-sightedness and eloquence are far better than his son...

"Your Majesty, Lord Sacrificial Wine is here. ”

"Please. ”

It belongs to the Jinmingyuan with one family name.

All the buildings in the park are built by the water or on the small island in the pond of Jinming Pond, with the Feihongqiao in the center as the mainstay, the islands are connected, and the islands and shores are connected.

In the spring of March, the peach and willow green in the garden are full of spring, the pond is full of lotus roots, and the summer is full of clear lotus in the pond, and it is praised as the night rain of the golden pond by the literati who are fortunate enough to come here. However, it is winter now, and there is naturally no green lotus in Jinming Pond.

There are nine halls connected to the east bridge, there is a rather lonely pavilion in front of the hall outside the hall, and Emperor Cheng is drinking tea, there is no stove next to him, but for the upcoming wine lord, the emperor ordered people to bring up several stoves to keep warm.

The emperor gently rubbed a piece of Hetian jade from the Xiliang Kingdom in his hand, and occasionally looked up at the blue waves of the lake, and there was no joy or sorrow between his eyebrows, but as if he was recalling something.

A middle-aged man with a mediocre appearance, but wearing the official uniform of the country's priest, walked slowly into the pavilion and arched his hand: "Minister, see Your Majesty." ”

His Majesty the Emperor retracted his thoughts, smiled slightly, and nodded, "Lord Sacrificial Wine sit." ”

Han Yu, the lord of the sacrificial wine, would come to talk to His Majesty about every three or five days, so he was not nervous, sat down on the side, and said: "Your Majesty instructed the ministers to complete half of the rituals according to the Zhou Rites, and it will take about three months to complete it. ”

The emperor nodded in approval and said, "Lord Sacrificial Wine has worked hard. Although this ritual has no immediate effect on the country and the people, it will imperceptibly benefit the people. ”

The sacrificial wine smiled and said, "What Your Majesty said is very true. ”

Personally poured a cup of tea for the priest in front of him, the emperor put down the teapot and said with a smile: "This is what Mr. taught me back then, and the students remember it in their hearts." ”

When Zhao Yu was still the crown prince, he worshipped Han Yu, who did not have a formal official status at that time, as a teacher. After giving lectures in Guozijian for more than 20 years, he was finally promoted to sacrificial wine after Zhao Yu ascended the throne.

The Great Song Dynasty attaches great importance to literature and education, so the status of this country's priest wine in the court is much higher than that of other countries. Being called Mr. by the emperor is more than giving him a hundred taels of gold to make this sacrificial wine lord happy. The priest smiled, caught a glimpse of the jade in the emperor's hand, and suddenly remembered that the king of Huainan was a person who loved jade very much, and he loved Hetian jade the most among all the jade, and couldn't help frowning: "Your Majesty can't let go of the matter of King Huainan?"

The Emperor nodded, unabashedly.

Han Saijiu said: "Your Majesty is the king of a country, you should focus on the people of Sheji, and the King of Huainan is to blame, why is it worth Your Majesty not to let go?"

The young emperor nodded again and did not speak.

Han Saijiu seemed to return to the time when he was still the prince's teacher, raised his voice, and said in an almost reproachful tone: "Your Majesty should understand that throughout the ages, how many emperors with the kindness of women have died at the hands of ambitious uncles, if you don't cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, how can the world be peaceful......!

"I know!" The emperor suddenly spoke, interrupted the sacrificial wine, was silent for a moment, seemed to be talking to himself, but did not claim to be me, and muttered: "Uncle Huainan treated me very well back then, knew what I liked, understood what I was thinking, I was in trouble when I was a child, and Uncle Wang always protected me, and Uncle Wang wrote to me before the army......"

"Your Majesty!" Han Saijiu Huo Ran stood up and snorted.

The former crown prince and the current emperor stopped raising his head and stared at his teacher for a long time, then let out a long breath and said with a wry smile: "I know the stakes, so sir should sit down." ”

The two were relatively silent for a long time, and the emperor raised his eyes to look at the lake, and said slowly: "Home, country, world, what about my home?"

Han Saijiu suddenly made a big disrespectful move, reached out and touched the emperor's shoulder, and said softly: "Your Majesty's family has too many self-sacrificing people, for the sake of the country and the people, they are willing to pay, Your Majesty should be happy." ”

Three years ago, and Cheng five years, autumn.

The Imperial Palace, the Chongzheng Palace.

His Majesty the Emperor was approving the folding, and the two-foot-high fold on the table almost buried the emperor in it, when he heard the eunuch report that the king of Huainan had a letter.

When he heard that it was Uncle Huainan who had not received a letter for a long time, the emperor was a little surprised and a little happy, and he couldn't wait to open the letter and take it.

Uncle Huang's words are still chic and uninhibited, but the content of the letter makes the emperor tremble!

Seeing the letter, my nephew has worked hard.

Uncle Wang once heard that it was said in the history books that the emperor has no family affairs, the king's home is the world, and the king's relatives are the people of the world.

In recent years, Uncle Wang has watched the actions of the major vassal kings, and seems to have a heart of disobedience, and hopes that his nephew will pay more attention.

Uncle Wang thought that it was an imminent matter to cut the domain, and his nephew needed to completely cut the domain within five years, otherwise the world would be uneasy!

And, if Uncle Wang doesn't rebel, how can his nephew cut the domain? If Your Majesty doesn't cut the domain, how can the Great Song Dynasty be stable?

In that case, then Uncle Wang will be the opposite!

Nephew, take care of yourself.

Remember, the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light!

With a bang, the cup next to the emperor was knocked to the ground. In just a few moments, the expression on Emperor Hecheng's face changed from expectation to surprise, then to anger, and finally to despair.

"Come on, go and invite Han Festival wine, go quickly!" the emperor took a deep breath, tried to restrain the huge wave in his heart, and sat down on the edge of the table.

"Your Majesty. Han Yu Han sacrificed his hand and bowed, he didn't know what was urgent when His Majesty was in a hurry, so he trotted all the way, sweating profusely.

The emperor handed the letterhead in his hand to Han Yu.

Han Yu took it and looked at it fixedly, and immediately hugged the emperor's shoulder and said, "Your Majesty, calm down!" ”

"Teacher, I..." Emperor Hecheng clutched his chest and was speechless.

"The world is important, Your Majesty!" Han Saijiu waited for the letter to be burned to ashes, knelt down and said: "Please Your Majesty quickly summon the officials of the six ministries and several generals into the palace!" Looking up and seeing Emperor Hecheng, who had been determined to be the emperor of the ages, he was like a puppet, Han Saijiu gritted his teeth and stood up, picked up a ring ruler next to him and hit it...

Emperor Hecheng was beaten several times, and finally came back to his senses, Huo Di stood up and shouted outward: "Quickly summon the six Shangshu Shilang, and the three generals into the palace, go quickly! Slowly, call the Zhennan general Li Rongsheng too!"

An hour later.

The Chongzheng Hall was full of the highest-grade civil and military officials of the entire Great Song Dynasty. Emperor Han Yu stood beside the emperor, glancing at Emperor Hecheng from time to time from the corner of his eye.

At first, in the Chongzheng Palace, to be honest, Han Yu was disappointed at that time. Because His Majesty was disturbed by a mere letter. Huainan King Liu An rebelled, no matter what his original intention was, no matter what the King of Huainan was for, he Liu An rebelled anyway.

The matter of cutting the feudal domain was mentioned by Emperor Hecheng at the beginning of his succession to the throne with Han Sacrifice Wine. It's just been waiting for an excuse. This Liu An is reversed, and the emperor's cutting of the domain is justified. What a rare opportunity! What a wonderful opportunity! But His Majesty actually sat down and didn't know what to do because he had been friends with Liu An since he was a child.

As a dignified emperor, Han Yu is really, very disappointed. However, after a few bold blows, His Majesty completely regained his senses. Just like more than ten years ago, the prince and the prince disagreed, and they beat with a ruler.

When the high-ranking officials arrived at the Chongzheng Palace, the emperor on the dragon chair, up and down, no longer showed the slightest confusion, and some were just hated and saddened by the rebellion of the vassal king.

Emperor He Cheng sat behind the table, looked at the generals in front of him, and said without any waves: "I got the news that Liu An, the king of Huainan, wants to rebel." ”

"Ah, the king of Huainan rebelled?"

"The King of Huainan has always been loyal to the border... How..."

"Is the information reliable?"

......

The ministers couldn't believe for a while that Liu An, the king of Huainan, would actually rebel. You must know that Liu An was a loyal minister who saved the life of the emperor back then.

If you want to rebel, you only need to stand by and watch for a moment on the battlefield, so that the first emperor will collapse in the Wei army, and he, Liu An, the marshal with the most armor soldiers under his command at that time, will have this great Song Jiangshan at his fingertips.

You must know that if it is peaceful today, and His Majesty is a good emperor who is loved and admired by the people of the Great Song Dynasty, he Liu An rebelled at this time, and the possibility of victory is almost none!

Emperor Hecheng looked at Li Rongsheng, who was only a general in Zhennan at that time, Li Rongsheng understood, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that today's plan should be dealt with quickly, not when discussing why King Huainan rebelled!"

The ministers immediately stopped talking, they all reacted, and couldn't help but sweat in their hearts, and said in their hearts, this Li Rongsheng is so young, he is really bold, and he is not afraid of offending us?
