Chapter 0257 Minister, Courageous !!

"Nope!"

Almost at the same time as he heard the words 'Xuanping Hou', Liu Bang slapped the table in front of him, stood up, and gritted his teeth with anger.

"That bastard, how can you still have the face to see me?!"

"Go!"

"Tell that guy where he came from, go back to where he came!!"

roared in anger, Liu Bang's chest also rose and fell violently, and his face was full of surging anger.

Later generations often say: The mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more she looks at it.

But when this sentence was put on Liu Bang and Zhang Ao, the sons-in-law, it was completely reversed.

Every time I see Zhang Ao······

No!

You don't even need to see it with your own eyes, just Zhang Ao's face, every time it appears in Liu Bang's mind, Liu Bang's heart will involuntarily swell with an impulse.

——Scolded, and even punched and kicked Zhang Ao!

On Liu Bang's side, seeing Liu Bang make this posture again without accident, Xiahou Ying couldn't stop sighing secretly after finishing his words.

As a courtier, Xiahou Ying naturally didn't want to talk about Liu Bang's attitude towards someone.

But as the 'brother' who has been getting along day and night for many years, and the royal coachman who can't be touched by Liu Bang, Liu Bang's inexplicable anger towards Zhang Ao, Xiahou Ying, really knows the origin too well.

Speaking of this, we have to talk about the Han-Hungarian War that took place in Pingcheng five years ago.

At the beginning, it was Han Wangxin who asked Liu Bang, the son of heaven, to move the capital to Mayi on the grounds that 'the royal capital was too far away from the border pass and it was inconvenient to fight', and obtained the permission of the Chang'an court.

Then, it was Han Wangxin in his own royal capital, and it was also the first line of Han and Hungary: Mayi was besieged, and he waited for reinforcements but failed, and finally had no choice but to open the city and surrender.

At the time of surrender, whether Han Wangxin had even a trace of shame is unknown to the world.

But what the people of the world see in the eyes is that after Han Wangxin surrendered, he completely interpreted the sentence "the two devils are more hateful than the devils".

Han Wangxin surrendered in Mayi, and the land was wide open, but the two countries of Yan and Zhao, which were adjacent to the land, were also at a very delicate time node.

——A year before Han Wangxin surrendered to Mayi, Zang Tu, the king of Yan, was executed for rebellion, and Lu Xuan, the Marquis of Chang'an, was able to be named the king of Yan;

At the time of Han Wangxin's surrender, Lu Juan had become the king of Yan for less than a year, and the interior of Yan had not yet been sorted out, and Han Wangxin, who was backed by the main army of the Huns and rushed to the Han mansion with his teeth bared, Lu Juan, the king of Yan at that time, could not provide much help at all.

As for Zhao Guo, the situation is also very similar.

——Almost at the same time that Zang Tu was executed for rebellion, the first king of Zhao, Zhang Er, died of illness, and the crown prince Zhang Ao succeeded to the throne as the second king of Zhao.

It stands to reason that although Zhao did not rebel like Yan, it always took some time for the princes to figure it out.

To put it simply, no matter how smooth the transfer of power, it will always take time.

And this became Liu Bang's first stab in the heart of his disgust with Zhang Ao: in the Battle of Pingcheng, the Zhao State controlled by Zhang Ao almost did not help Liu Bang in the slightest.

Yan and Zhao did not help, and Dai Di was out of control because of Han Wangxin, which also made Liu Bang feel endless anger in his heart after experiencing the battle of Pingcheng, especially the seven-day and seven-night 'Siege of Baideng'.

Xiahou Ying still remembers what Liu Bang said that year, after Pingcheng returned to Chang'an.

- Lu Juan has just been sealed, and it is adjacent to the side wall, so he can't afford to transfer the Yan army; He Zhang Ao inherited the position of his father, and he was hundreds of miles away from the wall, why didn't he transfer troops to help me?!

After shouting this complaint, Liu Bang went to Chu State non-stop as if to vent his anger.

Then, it was the news that Han Xin, the king of Chu, was demoted to the Marquis of Huaiyin and sent back to Chang'an.

When Liu Bang named his younger brother Liu Jiao as the king of Chu and returned to Chang'an with Han Xin, who had been demoted to the marquis of Huaiyin, the second thing that made Liu Bang hate Zhang Ao happened.

After the Battle of Pingcheng, the entire Chang'an court, including Liu Bang, had already decided to temporarily sign a peace treaty with the Xiongnu in order to concentrate on pacifying the interior.

And to sign a treaty, naturally you need some auxiliary means, such as harmony.

At that time, Liu Bang's choice and his relatives were his eldest princess, and now Lu Yuanzhu: Liu Le.

But as everyone expected, for Liu Bang's plan to marry his baby daughter to the Huns, Queen Lu Pheasant expressed a very strong anger!

Not surprisingly, as soon as Lu Pheasant was angry, Liu Bang died down, chose a palace maid to pretend to be a palace maid, and sent it to the Huns.

As for Liu Le, he was very efficiently married to Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao at that time, by Empress Lu, in order to eliminate Liu Bang's evil intention of 'marrying a female Huns'······

It may sound a little unbelievable.

——Liu Bang is a dignified son of heaven, can he be so easily frightened by Empress Lu in a diplomatic event involving national affairs such as 'harmony'?

Liu Le, the lord of Lu Yuan, who was originally used by Liu Bang as a relative, could marry Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, and become the queen because of Lu Pheasant's anger?

In fact, in this whole incident, there was one person who was 'ignored' by the court at that time, the world, and even historians.

Han Wangxin surrendered in Mayi, and then ran to the grassland with the Huns, so who took over the defensive position of the land left by Han Wangxin?

It is not difficult to find from the sentence written by the later Taishi Gong, 'the land of the war and the death of the king': after the Battle of Pingcheng in the Han Dynasty, it was the founding father of the Han Dynasty who was extremely taboo for historians to replace the vacant defense line due to the defection of Han Wangxin: Zhou Lu Lingwu Marquis, Lu Ze.

In this way, everything that seems unreasonable makes sense.

- If the niece daughter is going to be married to the Huns, even if the queen Lu Pheasant agrees, Lu Ze, who holds military power, garrisons the border wall, and has a high prestige among the founding fathers, can agree? !

Don't forget, even Liu Bang Yichu's thoughts gradually appeared in Chang'an after Lu Ze died in battle!

Before Lu Ze died, even Liu Bang had written the words 'I hate Liu Ying' on his face, and he never dared to mention the word 'Yi Chu'!

The matter of harmony is put aside for the time being, but Liu Bang's malice towards Zhang Ao has just begun.

——Dai, Yan, and Zhao, as the main line of defense in the north of the Han Dynasty, are distributed in the shape of an inverted 'product', with Dai on the left, Yan on the right, and Zhao on the bottom.

And Lu Pheasant, together with Lu Ze, married his daughter Liu Le to Zhang Ao, which undoubtedly accurately hit Liu Bang's G-spot.

Although Lu Xuan, the king of Yan, is a brother who has played with Liu Bang since childhood, he is located in the northeast corner of the Han Dynasty, too far away from Guanzhong.

And Dai and Zhao, who were a little closer to Guanzhong, made Liu Bang smell a hint of danger because of the two events of 'Lu Ze stationed in Daidi' and 'Liu Le marrying Zhang Ao'.

- You Lu Ze controls the Daidi, Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, has become your niece and son-in-law again, and Lu Xuan, the king of Yan, is in the northeast?

How?

You, the Lu family, do you want to divide the river and rule, let me be the king of Qin, and myself the king of Kwantung?

In this way, in the seventh year of the Han Dynasty, when his niece Liu Le married Handan, and had not even arrived in Handan, Zhou Luhou Lu Ze 'died in battle' in Daidi;

In the spring of the following year, Liu Le, the Empress of Zhao, was just pregnant with his eldest son and Zhang Ao, and Zhang Ao was robbed of the prince because of the case of 'Guan Gao's rebellion' and was named the Marquis of Xuanping······

In the eyes of outsiders, the only connection between the two events of 'Lu Ze died in battle' and 'Zhang Ao was demoted to the queen' was only that as soon as Lu Ze, who was stationed in the Daidi, died, the third son of the emperor, Liu Ruyi, became the acting king;

After understanding these old events, and then looking at the matter of 'why Liu Bang hates Zhang Ao', it is clear at a glance.

At the beginning, in the Battle of Pingcheng, Zhang Ao, the king of Zhao, 'excused' that he had just succeeded to the throne and did not clarify the country, and did not help Liu Bang's army;

Gu Hui

After that, Liu Bang, who was 'defeated' (failed to win) in Pingcheng, decided to make peace, but before the matter of peace and marriage was even written, Liu Le was married to Zhang Ao!

In the end, it was Liu Bang who took the anger of the first two things and went to Handan to see his daughter and son-in-law, and by the way, he scolded and abused this stupid son-in-law······

Even if Liu Bang never said this, Xiahou Ying also understood in his heart: Zhang Ao can live to this day with all his beards and tails, it is completely because the Son of God thinks about his daughter's face, and he doesn't want his daughter to be widowed!

Otherwise, not to mention the refusal to allocate troops and horses in the Battle of Pingcheng, and the two things of 'conspiring' with Lu Pheasant and Lu Ze to marry Liu Le, just Guan Gao's intention to assassinate Liu Bangsheng Driving, the Zhang family would have to die in five suits!

But then again: in the final analysis, Liu Bang's inexplicable dislike for Zhang Ao is actually more due to Empress Lu Pheasant and the late Zhou Lu Hou Lu Ze······

The reason is simple.

Pingcheng failed to send troops in the first battle, at most it can only be regarded as a fuse, and then marrying Liu Le, the lord of Lu Yuan, is not something that Zhang Ao can decide or refuse at all.

——The matter of marrying Liu Le to Zhang Ao, even Liu Bang, the son of heaven, did not dare to stop it, and the princess of the Manchu Dynasty did not let go of a fart, can he still expect Zhang Ao, a prince with a different surname, to refuse to become a concubine in front of the kindness of Lu Ze and Lu Pheasant?

But it is impossible for anyone in their right mind to refuse such a good thing!

As for the high school thing, it's even simpler.

——In the interrogation link after Tingwei captured Guan Gao, what Guan Gao said was very clear: It was because after Liu Le married Zhang Ao, when Liu Bang went to Handan to see his daughter, he kept scolding Zhang Ao, which made Guan Gao have the idea of 'humiliating the lord and his ministers to death', and he had murderous intentions against Liu Bang!

From this point of view, putting aside the matter of 'assassinating the Son of Heaven', this Guan Gao must be regarded as a loyal and righteous person!

Combined with all this, the reason for Liu Bang's dislike of Zhang Ao is obvious.

- Liu Bang, the Son of Heaven, doesn't really hate Zhang Ao, but hates a person who has been doing bad things for himself although he has done nothing.

To put it more bluntly, what Liu Bang hates is actually Lu Ze and Lu Pheasant, brother and sister.

It's just that Liu Bang couldn't say this matter clearly, and it was inconvenient to show it too obviously, which made Zhang Ao suffer from the pond fish and become cannon fodder······

However, it is precisely because of a thorough understanding of these things that today's Xiahou Ying has to persuade Liu Bang and plead for Zhang Ao.

Because today, it is no longer the same as in the past······

"Your Majesty······"

"Your Majesty?"

Tentatively let out two light calls, and after a cold snort came from Liu Bang's still undulating back, Xiahou Ying muttered a little wording, and his face immediately changed to an extremely solemn expression.

"The Lu of the Eater, the minister today, should not have said this."

"However, if you talk about friendship, brother, today I have to persuade my brother with this word······"

The self-proclaimed "brother" of a "brother" and the "elder brother" finally made Liu Bang put his anger aside a little, and only turned around in solitude, looking at Xiahou Ying with a cold gaze.

But at this point, Xiahou Ying has obviously made up her mind.

"Brother."

"Since I had to marry Lord Lu Yuan as my wife, the Marquis of Xuanping, I was already the head of the queen; In the past, my brother had many thoughts of being easy to store and abolish, so it didn't hurt for my brother to be evil and peaceful. ”

"However, now, the idea of the elder brother Yi Chu after the abolition has disappeared, and the prince has become strong enough to lead the army to conquer in person to seek the land of the princes."

"Therefore, my brother thinks that my brother should plan more for the future······"

With a grim expression and a somewhat taboo sentence, Xiahou Ying didn't wait for Liu Bang to digest the content of his words, and hurriedly continued: "In the past, every time my brother said: Those who want to abolish the prince are too powerful of the Lu family. ”

"Today, although the prince has the appearance of a brother for two or three, the worries of the Lu family may not be over."

"And Xuanping Hou Ao, although he is the queen because of Lord Lu Yuan, but my brother should know: Lord Lu Yuan is the ······ of the Liu family."

"Marrying the Marquis of Xuanping as his wife, Lord Lu Yuan, is the daughter of His Majesty and the eldest sister of the prince······"

"The lord of Delu is here, and the Marquis of Xuanping will never be the enemy of the prince!"

"And the queen loves her daughter very much, Yu Lu Yuanzhu and Xuanping Marquis will be unguarded;"

"Therefore, in the future, if something happens, Lord Lu Yuan and Marquis Xuanping should be able to help the prince outside the painting······"

With an extremely grim expression, Xiahou Ying didn't dare to look at Liu Bang even once, but only knelt down and slowly knocked his forehead on the ground.

In front of Xiahou Ying, recalling Xiahou Ying's words, the face of the Son of Heaven was full of mixed flavors······

"Ah Le ······"

"Zhang Ao ······"

"Prince ······"

"Queen's ······"

"Lu's ······"

"Jongmyo ······"

"Social ·········"

Squinting his eyes and muttering a few times in a cold tone, Liu Bang's face finally swelled with a touch of complexity and a faint bitter smile.

"In this way, I, I should wait for Xuanping Hou to be a little kinder······"

"Yes and no?"

Hearing Liu Bang's words, Xiahou Ying didn't dare to move, only maintained the posture of kneeling and kowtowing, and replied with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty Fu Wei is a blessing!" ”

"Minister, just pause and pause, just die for a hundred worships······"

But seeing Liu Bang smiling bitterly again, he shook his head, looking at Xiahou Ying's gaze, and there was a faint hint of sarcasm.

"Xiahou ······"

"Huh······"

"Even my own servant~ thought that my life was not long, and I should plan for the 'future'~"

"Huh."

"Hehe······"

As he spoke, Liu Bang slowly lowered his head, looking at the trembling head under his feet, his eyes were only red.

"Could it be that I am really about to collapse?"

"Could it be that you are too servant, you really want me to collapse as soon as possible! and not ?!! ”

There was a crying roar in his ears, but Xiahou Ying had to swallow more and raise his forehead slightly by half an inch, and then slammed it on the floor again and again.

In a few moments, the floor was wet with Xiahou Ying.

Those who are wet on the ground have blood and sweat, and the most are tears······
