"Queen Mother Lu Pheasant ......"

When Yang Yi said goodbye to Liu Ying and walked out of the Yang Palace, it was almost dawn.

Even the curfew in Chang'an City had been lifted a moment ago, and there were already patrolling officials on the streets.

And the question that Liu Ying repeatedly mentioned last night lingered in Yang Yi's mind for a long time......

"Yangqing, I am the king, and the hundred officials are the ministers, what about the queen mother?"

"Is the Queen Mother a monarch or a minister?"

Last night, Liu Ying asked Yang Yi hundreds of questions, but Yang Yi was the only one who could not give an answer.

The Queen Mother is a minister?

If it is placed in the later generations, the era when 'the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics' has become the norm, although it is not too accurate to say this, but the problem is not very big.

If the sky is gone, Yang Yi can also use 'The queen mother is naturally not a minister, but the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, but the ancestral balabala set by the xx emperor' to deal with this problem.

But at this time, the period of centralization in China had just begun, and the system had not yet been perfected, so it was obvious that there was a problem.

Because in the Han Dynasty, there is always a universal value, which is at the forefront.

- Filial piety!

Just after Liu Bang ascended the throne, he respected his father Liu Xuan (Tuān) as the emperor, which has already given the most standard answer to Liu Ying's question.

- Children and grandchildren, there is absolutely no more noble reason than the living predecessors!

In this way, the answer to this question in the Han family is obvious.

The Queen Mother is a king!

And he is more noble than the emperor, and even the emperor has to bow down to obey his orders!

This answer has obviously been in Yang Yi's inherent cognition for a long time.

But helplessly: Yang Yi must not tell Liu Ying this answer......

"Alas, the stupid son of the Liu Bang family......"

"But that's right."

"If Liu Ying weren't so stupid, there would be no Lu Pheasant who was called the system in the Lin Dynasty and a relative of the Lu family who caused trouble in Hanzuo in history."

Sighing secretly, Yang Yi raised his head, but found that on the street in the early morning, there were suddenly more people.

"Where are so many people in the morning?"

It is different from the stereotypical picture of later generations: at this time, Chang'an City has not even been built with a general outline.

It's normal to think about it: although Han Zuo has been 'enjoying the country for 12 years', these 12 years do not mean that the troubled times are over.

Theoretically, the first year of the Han Yuan Dynasty was twelve years ago, in 206 BC.

And the reason why this year is only the first year of the Han Yuan Dynasty in theory is because this 'first year' has to be counted from the second year when Liu Bang was crowned King of Han, when Han Xin led the army to return to the Three Qins.

That is to say, from the first year of Emperor Gao to the fifth year of Emperor Gao, Liu Bang was actually not 'Han Taizu', but the king of Han named by Xiang Yu.

It was not until the fifth year of the Han Dynasty that Xiang Yu's soldiers were defeated and killed in Wujiang, and Liu Bang officially held an enthronement ceremony in Bishui, and the country was named Dahan.

After the unification of the world, the Han family was extremely strange that it did not successfully enter the reconstruction period after the end of the troubled times because of the unification.

——After defeating Xiang Yu and unifying the world, Liu Bang sealed the princes with different surnames and sealed most of the land in the eastern part of the country!

Then, it was the rebellion of the princes with different surnames that began in the fifth year of the Han Yuan Dynasty and continued to this day.

——Just six months after Liu Bang became emperor, that is, in the autumn and July of the fifth year of Emperor Gao, Zang Di, the king of Yan, took the lead in rebellion!

A few months later, the king of Linjiang rebelled;

In the autumn of the sixth year of Emperor Gao, Han Wangxin secretly married the Xiongnu, which directly triggered the subsequent Han-Hun Pingcheng Battle.

It was also in this battle that Liu Bang, the son of the Han Dynasty, was besieged by the Xiongnu Shan Yumaodun in Baishan Mountain for seven days and seven nights.

In the seventh year of Emperor Gao, Han Xin, the king of Chu, sat on the 'attempted rebellion' and was demoted to the Marquis of Huaiyin;

In the eighth year of Emperor Gao, Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, sat on the 'attempted rebellion' and was demoted to the Marquis of Xuanping;

In the tenth year of Emperor Gao, Chen Feng, the acting minister of the country, rebelled, and Liu Bang sent Peng Yue, the king of Liang, to quell the rebellion;

In the eleventh year of Emperor Gao, Peng Yue was deposed as a commoner because he refused Liu Bang's recruitment due to illness;

In the summer of the same year, Peng Yue, the king of Liang, and Han Xin, the marquis of Huaiyin, were both killed, and Yingbu (黥布), the king of Huainan, immediately rebelled......

It can be said that Liu Bang's short twelve years of life peak, and the five years of being the king of Han, were all used on Xiang Yu; In the seven years after becoming emperor, he spent it on quelling the rebellion of princes with different surnames.

It was also in the process of last year's imperial expedition to quell the Yingbu rebellion that Liu Bang was hit by a stray arrow and completely consumed the remaining life balance.

Until three months before Liu Bang's death, that is, at the beginning of this year, there were still rebellious princes with different surnames in Kanto (Lu Xuan, King of Yan......

Out of the consideration of 'not forgetting the past and not forgetting the future', Liu Bang finally made an alliance with the prince and the noble white horse at the beginning of this year and formulated the only 'ancestral motto' of the Liu Han Dynasty.

- If it is not meritorious, it must not be waited; If it is not the Liu family, it must not be the king......

As the founding emperor of the country, Liu Bang was still busy 'exterminating the princes with different surnames' until the last moment of his life, and the construction of the capital city of Chang'an was naturally abandoned.

Except for the two palaces of Changle and Weiyang, which were built by Xiao He in the year of Liu Bang's accession to the throne, regardless of the construction period, Chang'an City at this time was almost no different from the 'Chang'an Yi' in the past.

There is no city wall to surround it, and there is no famous eight streets and nine mos at home and abroad.

At this time, Chang'an City was only a large village formed around the two palaces of Changle and Weiyang.

In Yang Yi's 'memory', even the family's house was changed from a dilapidated thatched courtyard to a barely passable mansion more than a year ago.

Chang'an City is also read as 'Chang'an Yi', which naturally means that the population of Chang'an at this time is far less than in history.

Naturally, the crowd that appeared on the street like ghosts early in the morning seemed a little abrupt in Yang Yi's eyes.

But soon, Yang Yi saw the clothes of those people clearly, and he didn't feel strange.

"Is there an early pilgrimage today?"

pinched his hands and counted the days, and Yang Yi reacted: Today is the fifth day of June in the twelfth year of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty.

According to the political rules of the Han family's 'five days and one dynasty', today is really the day of the court.

Thinking of this, Yang Yi didn't plan to stay longer, and hurriedly accelerated the pace of going home.

——Yang Yi is now 'wearing a guilty body', in case he meets the ministers and officials who greet him, he is still a little embarrassed......

Just as Yang Yi was thinking about how to cover his face without looking like a bandit, a loud shout suddenly caused the crowd on the street to stop.

"Second son!"

In just a moment, on the street outside the north gate of Weiyang Palace, hundreds of sleepy-eyed eyes suddenly opened and looked at Yang Yi.

"Gan!"

With a dark sigh, Yang Yi gritted his teeth and raised his head, and saw his personal servant Yang Da waving frantically not far away.

But strangely......

"What does that mean?"

Before Yang Yi could come to his senses, he suddenly remembered a slight whistling sound behind him.

Then, it was a slap the size of a pu fan, and it slapped Yang Yi on the back of the head.

"This rebel !!"
