Chapter 0003 Acting Prime Minister Chen Feng will be in chaos
Liu Bang gave an order, and outside the Liyang Palace, he immediately prepared three cars.
The most advanced queen Feng Yuan was whipped by the servant Xiahou Ying himself.
The slightly dilapidated chariot in the middle is Liu Ying's prince's chariot, escorted by Wuyang Hou Fan.
In the end, the car for Prime Minister Xiao He to ride did not even have a horse, and only four oxen pulled the cart.
Yang Chengyan, who is the secretary of the Shaofu, is the worst.
- Xiao He has a car but no horse, so he can only pull the cart with oxen; Yangchengyan had a horse, but he had no car, so he could only ride back to Chang'an......
If it weren't for the cyan ribbon hanging around his waist, Yangcheng Yan rode his horse slowly beside Xiao He's ox cart, I am afraid that he would not be recognized as Xiao He's escort......
There were no hundreds of officials to send each other, and there was no army to accompany them, the troika and nearly 100 guards accompanied them, and the convoy set off before dawn and drove to Chang'an City, which was a hundred miles away.
Sitting on the dilapidated chariot, Liu Ying still did not recover from the previous shock.
It's not because of Liu Ruyi.
- but Liu Ying has been bizarrely driven out of Xinfeng by Liu Bang in two completely different names in two lives!
In the previous life, Liu Ying 'just arrived' and 'didn't understand the rules', and he made a foreign appearance at the funeral, and was driven back to Chang'an by Liu Bang, which can be understood as Liu Bang felt that he had lost face, so he simply threw Liu Ying back to Chang'an, out of sight.
But in this life, Liu Ying didn't do anything, didn't say anything, and quietly knelt on the ground throughout the funeral, but was still driven back to Chang'an!
That's a bit weird.
In addition, there is another point that also makes Liu Ying feel very weird.
In the previous life, Liu Ying was driven back to Chang'an by Liu Bang because of his loss of honor at the funeral of the emperor, and Xiao He, who was the prime minister, and Yang Chengyan, Shaofu, also returned to Chang'an with Liu Ying.
In this life, Xiao He and Yang Chengyan also did not escape the fate of being driven back to Chang'an!
If it is just these two people, it can at least barely be explained that the Chang'an court really needs someone to sit in charge, and the prime minister and the Shaofu cannot leave Chang'an for too long.
But the problem is: those who have been driven out of Xinfeng in the past two lives are not only Liu Ying, Xiao He, and Yangchengyan!
ββIn the previous life, Liu Ying was sent back to Chang'an, it was Fan Hao who led the troops to escort him, and the servant Xiahou Ying drove!
In this life, the figures of Xiahou Ying and Fan Hao still appeared in the convoy returning to Chang'an!
To be precise: Like Liu Ying, Xiao He, Yang Chengyan, Xiahou Ying, and Fan Xu were all driven back to Chang'an by Liu Bang in their two lives!
Liu Ying was driven back to Chang'an for two lifetimes, which can be understood as a coincidence, or Liu Bang really didn't want to see Liu Ying;
Xiao He and Yang Chengyan were driven back to Chang'an for two lifetimes, which can also be understood as caused by objective reasons;
But if on this basis, plus Xiahou Ying and Fan Xu, who can't be explained at all, there is even one more queen Lu Pheasant in this life?
Even if Liu Ying is a fool, he has already realized that there must be something else hidden in this!
"Xinfeng ......"
"Emperor Taishang's funeral ......"
"What is it that makes Liu Bang have to drive the five of us back to Chang'an......
There is no need for Liu Ying to think about it: after the funeral, a big event will inevitably happen in Xinfeng.
One thing, Liu Ying, Xiahou Ying, and Fan Hao must not be present, and Queen Lu Pheasant had better not be present.
Recalling the memories of his previous life, combined with the identities of Xiahou Ying and Fan Xu, as well as what happened in the Liyang Palace, the corners of Liu Ying's eyes couldn't help but squint slightly.
The dusty memories in his mind gradually unfolded in front of Liu Ying's eyes, and finally in an inconspicuous corner, a dazzling light lit up.
"The Rebellion of the Acting Prime Minister Chen Xuan......"
With a soft murmur, Liu Ying shook her head with a wry smile, and sighed again.
ββIn the autumn and September of the tenth year of the Han Yuan Dynasty, the acting prime minister Chen Xuan established himself as the king and rebelled in the eastern part of the country.
Liu Ying does not have many memories of Chen Feng's rebellion, but remembers that at that time, it was only more than a month after the death of Emperor Taishang, and he was still grounded in the palace.
Chen Feng rebelled in September, and just a few days later, his father Liu Bang personally led the army to the battle, and the rebellion was basically quelled in a few months.
But now, when Liu Ying compared the bizarreness of his previous life and his present life into the matter of Chen Ying's rebellion, a very interesting possibility quietly appeared in Liu Ying's mind.
ββFor Chen Xuan's rebellion, the Chang'an court has long known about it!
It is even very likely that now, there is still more than a month before Chen Feng's rebellion, and it is already known!
It's normal to think about it.
Chen Xuantangtang, the princes and princes, the high-ranking officials with a rank of 2,000 stones, can the Chang'an court be defenseless?
Even if he really didn't, Chen Xuan ended up messing up the north wall, but he was instigated by Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin!
And at this point in time, Han Xin said that he was 'living' in Chang'an, but in fact, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is under house arrest!
Han Xin's letters flew to Daiguo one by one, and the court couldn't guess Chen Yan's possible moves?
In this way, the bizarre 'encounters' of Liu Ying, Xiao He and other five people in their past and present lives can all be explained.
- Prime Minister Xiao He and Shaofu Yangcheng extended their return to Chang'an, precisely to prepare corresponding logistics grain, grass and baggage for the upcoming war!
As for Fan Hao and Xiahou Ying, looking at the identities of the two, it is not difficult to guess.
Wuyang Hou Fan is the brother-in-law of the current queen Lu Pheasant!
The servant Xiahou Ying was the one who picked Liu Ying back after the defeat in the Battle of Pengcheng, when Liu Bang kicked Liu Ying off the carriage several times on the way to defeat!
Combined with all this, the truth also emerges.
ββLiu Bang wants to quell Chen Xuan's rebellion, cultivate forces for Liu Ruyi, and prepare for the subsequent abolition of the crown prince!
In order to accomplish this goal, Liu Bang must ensure that the generals who quell Chen Ying's rebellion must use as many emerging forces as possible, and must not let the camp of the Lu family behind Liu Ying intervene!
Only in this way can we explain why Liu Bang had to drive the servant Xiahou Ying and the Wuyang Hou Fan Xu, who was idle at home, back to Chang'an.
Because as long as there is a war, both of them are eligible to participate in the war by default!
And once these two people are allowed to achieve meritorious service in the war, it will be a big help to the crown prince Liu Ying, and it will be even more difficult for Liu Bang to depose Liu Ying in the future.
"I see......
"For the sake of my storage position, forcibly get a piece of the pie from the Chen Feng rebellion......"
Thinking of this, Liu Ying's face couldn't help but become a little solemn.
In my memory, in the list of soldiers who participated in the suppression of Chen Xuan's rebellion in my previous life, there was Fan Xu.
Not only Fan Xu, but also more than a dozen high-ranking generals, including Guan Ying and Fu Kuan, among the forces of the Lu family's relatives, participated in the battle to quell Chen Xuan's rebellion.
It's just that in her previous life, Liu Ying was facing the wall for the whole year after she crossed over, and she couldn't see or understand these things.
It was only now that Liu Ying finally realized that in order to keep her position as the crown prince, what kind of efforts did her mother Lu Pheasant make and what terrifying power she launched......
