Can't.

This is the answer that Liu Ying gave to her father Liu Bang's question with all her strength.

It's not that I haven't, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't dare······

Dropping this extremely ambiguous 'don't dare', Liu Ying respectfully withdrew from the Changxin Hall under the deep gaze of the Son of God who seemed to be able to see through everything, and even the depths of people's souls.

It was also from this day that the monarch and minister, father and son played together, and Liu Ying's status as the crown prince changed dramatically······

·

Three days later, the main hall of Nagashin.

After nearly a year, the Changxin Hall of Changle Palace finally ushered in another court meeting attended by Liu Bang in person, and the ministers and hundreds of officials came together.

And the theme of today's court meeting has already spread throughout Chang'an in the past few days.

Before the sky dawned, the ministers, officials, and nobles entered from outside the palace gate with apprehension, expectation, or the mood of the ancient well.

After a while, the figures of Queen Lu Pheasant and Prince Liu Ying also appeared in the middle of the imperial order.

Then, it was Liu Bang, the son of heaven, who was dressed in a crimson crown and a crown of twelve sulfur crowns on his head, and sat down safely on the royal couch under the greeting of the ministers and officials in the palace.

"Hmm."

"Prince, step forward."

As soon as he sat on the imperial couch, he hadn't even officially thanked the meritorious marquis and hundreds of officials, and Liu Bang's first words attracted everyone's attention.

Under the gaze of the hundreds of officials in the hall and the encouraging gaze of her mother Lu Pheasant, Liu Ying only hesitated for a moment, then got up from her seat obediently, walked up the imperial steps quickly, and came to the imperial couch.

"Father's ······"

A slight call with a hint of instruction did not provoke Liu Bang to turn his head sideways, but slowly got up from the imperial couch, put his hands behind his back, and sighed slightly in the direction of the hall.

"I heard that there is a folk proverb, saying: Men are twenty and crowned, thirty and stand, and forty are not confused; Fifty and a half hundred, knowing the destiny of heaven; Sixty sixtieth nails, ear shun; Seventy years old, causing trouble; Eighty years old, the staff is facing the head; Ninety mackerel backs; 100 years old, it will be a ······"

"I raise the body of cloth and make great achievements in the prime of life; When Han Zuo is established, I will know the destiny of heaven······"

As he spoke, Liu Bang's face also showed a little emotion.

"Today, I am sixty years old and one, and I am past the age of six; and fought more in the world, tired of suffering as a disease. ”

"I heard again: The life of a person is no more than a hundred, and it turns into a handful of loess;"

"In the past, the King of Qin was afraid of death, and the great practitioners wanted to seek the way of eternal life; Later, he sent Xu Fu to the sea with a huge fortune to seek immortals. ”

The tone was full of solemnity, and Liu Bang swept his sharp gaze over everyone in the hall in order.

"What the king is doing, I don't even take it."

As soon as these words came out, among the courtiers in the palace, there were immediately several eager figures, who lowered their heads like mourners, and swallowed the words back into their stomachs.

Seeing Liu Bang's face scanned around the hall, he lowered his head sideways and gently put the palm as rough as dead wood on Liu Ying's shoulder.

When Liu Bang turned around again and looked at the people in the hall, Liu Bang's face was already filled with endless relief.

"Qin Wangzheng lived his life, leaving only one disaster, and causing Qin II to die!"

"Fortunately, with the blessing of our ancestors, my Han should not follow the mistakes of Yingqin······"

Hearing Liu Bang's seemingly vague sentence, in fact, it could not be more superficial, even if the courtiers in the palace were prepared, they couldn't help but look at Liu Bang on the royal ladder with surprise.

After a while, I saw Liu Bang turn his gratifying gaze from Liu Ying's body back to the hall, and his face was also quietly a little serious.

"Last year, Chen Feng rebelled against the generation and Zhao, and I did not hesitate to give thunder and drive the expedition in person; Today, Chen Feng's defeat is imminent! ”

"And I, running in Kanto for a few years, accumulating hard work and becoming ill, and being injured by the spring cold of Dai and Zhao Zhi, occasionally holding ill."

"When I returned to Beijing this time, I wanted to go straight to Ganquan, a little recuperation, and court affairs, all of which were entrusted to the hands of the prince, thinking that I was going to experience."

Speaking of this, Liu Bang's face couldn't help but sink again, his brows furrowed slightly, and a sneer mixed with annoyance quietly swelled in his expression.

"I want to rest and recuperate, how can I help Huainan, there are thieves who are not allowed to ······"

With a sad smile, Liu Bang's sharp gaze slowly scanned the hall again.

The courtiers and officials in the palace were all stared at by Liu Bang's sharp eyes, and they all lowered their heads, and they saw Liu Bang's face suddenly surging with a touch of fierceness!

Bang!!!

A crisp sound startled the hundreds of officials and ministers in the palace to hurriedly raise their heads, and saw Liu Bang holding the imperial case in front of him, with a look on his face, which can be described as extremely angry!

"Chen Feng has not yet been awarded the head, Yingbu thief, and wants to oppose Huainan!"

"I established Hanzuo, and I first sealed eight princes with different surnames, and so far, there have been six !! rebels"

With a hideous face, he let out several roars one after another, and Liu Bang's face was angry, and he finally reached the extreme.

"I have long said: Princes with different surnames are not advisable!"

"The calamity of the past years proves that I am unmistakable!!"

"When spring begins in the next year, I should burn incense and fast to swear an oath: all my Han family, not the Liu family, will not be the king's !!!!!"

With Liu Bang's extremely angry roar, the courtiers and officials in the palace and the nobles couldn't help but bow their heads deeply again, and they couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.

Judging from a series of changes that have occurred in the Kanto region in the past few years, the matter of separating different surnames into princes and kings has undoubtedly been labeled as 'disaster to the country and the people'.

From the earliest Gongwei and Zang Di, to the later Han Wangxin, as well as Zhang Ao, the Marquis of Xuanping, who lost his title 'due to sin' and was demoted to the Marquis of Che, plus this year, Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, and Peng Yue, the King of Liang, who perished one after another due to 'rebellion'······

Lin Lin finally came down, when Liu Bang, the son of heaven, was at the peak of the Han Dynasty, the eight princes with different surnames were divided, and so far, only the second King of Changsha Wu Chen, and the King of Huainan Yingbu are left.

Even one of these two people is about to make a move, and he is about to start a rebellion······

This is also the main reason why in the past few years, the Chang'an court has been extremely quick to 'divide' the matter and come to the consensus that 'a different surname cannot be a king'.

- The cost of rebellion of princes with different surnames is too low······

To exaggerate: a bad mood, a good mood, drinking too much, drinking too little, or even choking on saliva, may become the reason for the rebellion of princes with different surnames.

Different from this kind of instability of 'raising troops and rebelling without a word', the princes of the Liu clan have to take care of a layer of moral costs, and the central government and the princes of the clan can be less suspicious······

"Alas······"

"After all, it's still ······"

For Liu Bang today, he said without minus in the court that 'if you are not the Liu family, you will not be the king', and the courtiers and officials have long been psychologically prepared.

——As early as after the first shot of the Linjiang King Gongwei fired the 'chaos in the Kanto', and the rest of the princes with different surnames followed up in order, 'the princes with different surnames can't stay', it has long been the consensus of the Chang'an court.

For the existing princes with different surnames, the court has come to the conclusion that 'it is impossible to stay', and Liu Bang, as the founding emperor, completely blocked the mouth of 'dividing the princes with different surnames', which is naturally the reason in the question.

But it is clear that the theme of today's court discussion is definitely not 'whether the princes with different surnames should be divided or not'.

didn't let the hundreds of officials in the palace wait too long, Liu Bang waved his hand towards the Zhonglang officials who were already ready to go.

As the scrolls still exuded the fragrance of bamboo, and the contents of the bamboo slips were distributed to the courtiers and officials by the Lang officials, Liu Bang's gloomy tone that sent chills down the spine also sounded in the Changxin Hall again.

"In the summer and April, Peng Yue, the king of Liang, sat down and rebelled, and beheaded me in Luoyang!"

"In order to prevent the remaining princes with different surnames from rebelling, Bu Peng Yue followed in the footsteps, and I obtained minced meat from Peng Yue's corpse, and distributed it to Huainan and Changsha as a warning."

"King Zongyan is my siblings, and he is no exception!"

The tone was full of gloom to say this, Liu Bang raised his arm and pointed to the bamboo slips in the hands of everyone in the hall.

"A few days ago, Dr. Ben He of Huainan Zhong entered Chang'an and visited me in person."

"This book is evidence that Ben He sued Yingbu for the opposite."

With a gloomy expression, Liu Bang finally took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his chest a little.

After his complexion could barely be maintained at the level of 'expressionless', Liu Bang slowly exhaled a breath and sat back on the imperial couch with a big grin.

"Do you think: Is what Ben He said credible?"

"And Huainan Wang Yingbu, I took Peng Yue's flesh as a warning, but I really didn't know how to restrain it, but as Ben He said, he secretly stored armor, intending to plot against him?"

Hearing Liu Bang speak again, everyone in the hall couldn't help but raise their heads.

When they heard Liu Bang's question, everyone only lowered their heads again, as if they were carefully reading the bamboo slips in their hands, but in fact, they quietly fell into a short period of thought.

Yingbu, is there any anti-will?

The question is almost as simple as whether the hens will lay eggs, whether the bandits will loot, and whether the Huns will bathe.

But even so, Liu Bang, the son of heaven, still suppressed the anger in his chest, and put the sentence 'Will Yingbu really want to rebel' on the court and in front of the courtiers and officials.

As a bureaucrat of the founding batch of the Han Dynasty, the implied intention of Liu Bang's move was naturally effortless for everyone in the palace to understand.

Soon, I saw the Xixi courtiers in the front position, standing up an old dragon bell, and even faintly a sluggish figure.

"Prime Minister Hou Houchen He, I would like to pay homage to Your Majesty······"

The hoarse bow attracted everyone's attention, and even Liu Ying, who was standing beside Liu Bang and was a little at a loss for a while, was not noticed by anyone again.

Seeing Xiao He slightly arching his hand to Liu Bang on the imperial steps, he coughed lightly twice before holding up the bamboo slip in his hand a little higher.

"Ben He, the minister still has a little understanding······

said this sentence 'Ben He I know' without changing his face, and Xiao He's face should have a touch of contempt.

"In the fifth year of the Han Dynasty, when His Majesty decreed that Yingbu Wang Huainan, the king of Jiujiang, was moved, Yingbu once performed: Please transfer the officials to Huainan for the king's use."

"Ben He, it is convenient for the ministers to follow His Majesty's edict and send more than 400 officials to Huainan."

"The minister once heard of Ben He, and he was not good at Chang'an, and he was not good at government affairs, and he specialized in the art of flies and dogs, so he wanted to remove his name from the official register."

However, at that time, the society was thriving, and there was a shortage of officials and officials; The minister was unwilling to do so, so he had to send Ben He to Huainan, thinking that the minister of Yingbu was ······"

Slowly and logically said these words of reminiscence, Xiao He couldn't help coughing lightly twice before raising his head again.

"Later, the court sent the imperial history to Huainan to collect style, and returned to the minister: the middle doctor Ben He, his person is insidious and cunning, and he is not good at government affairs, and he is abandoned for Huainan."

"Yu Benhe's officials and Zuo who entered Huainan together are now all thousands of stones; However, Ben He was appointed as a doctor for Yingbu at the beginning, and to this day, he is still the same······"

"Last year, the emperor died, and Yingbu sent the internal history into Beijing to mourn, and the minister said: Ben He, this person, used it to consume rice, and it should be the end of the city······

Listening to Xiao He's indifferent words, the expressions on the faces of the courtiers and officials in the hall all had a strange look.

Previously, when they heard Liu Bang talk about 'Ben He reported the Yingbu rebellion', everyone thought that this was Liu Bang singing 'that play' again······

——From the Gongwei and Zang Di of Han Li in the year, to Zhang Ao and Han Wangxin in the following year, and then to Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, and Peng Yue, the king of Liang, the information of their 'rebellion' is almost all reported by middle-level officials like Ben He!

The journey from 'king's minister' to 'king's rebellion' is also very similar.

Left and right are just officials in the vassal states, because of one reason or another, or they have not been reused, or they have offended the big man or even the princes and kings themselves, and they are afraid that they will be cleaned up that day.

Then, naturally, this kind of person 'coincidentally' found that King XX was around the palace or the royal capital, secretly storing a number of armor, grain and grass, and ordnance, so he 'fled desperately' and sued Liu Bang, the son of heaven, in person.

Then, Liu Bang naturally led the army to the battle, nipped in the bud the rebellion of the princes and kings that had already occurred, or was about to occur, and even the possible one.

For similar scripts, in the past ten years, the courtiers and officials of the Chang'an court can basically be said to be tired of listening to them!

Therefore, when they heard Liu Bang say, 'Ben He reported Yingbu for rebellion', and even distributed the 'report book' to everyone as if it had happened, everyone just thought that this familiar script was about to be staged.

But after Xiao He said with determination, 'Ben He, this person has been used to say that it is bad', the expressions of everyone in the hall all swelled up with a trace of hesitation.

This ······

Ben Hyuk's report on Young-bo, shouldn't it be a script?

Since it is a script, according to convention, shouldn't the big guy cooperate with Liu Bang, the son of heaven, to act in a play, and then come to a conclusion that 'Yingbu must die'?

In the past, the best one to play with Liu Bang is Prime Minister Xiao He!

But today, Xiao He is ······

Old confused?

Just when everyone was in doubt, Xiao He's next sentence made everyone even more confused, turning into a complete confusion.

"According to Ben He's temperament, this time, Ben He wants to rebel, I am afraid there is another hidden feeling."

"Therefore, the minister's intentions, Your Majesty may first imprison Ben He in Chang'an, and send another envoy to Huainan to explore the reality of Yingbu!"

Unlike before, when he had to cough twice when he took two steps and stopped to take a breath when he said two words, when he said this, Xiao He's face suddenly took on a touch of strength!

Then, under the suspicious gaze of everyone in the hall, Xiao He quickly recovered to his previous appearance that his life was about to be in arrears, trembling to his seat, and slowly sat down······
