Chapter 0283: The Impatient Lu Clan
"Son, see the queen mother."
Changle Palace, Changxin Palace.
The corpse of the first emperor Liu Bang is not cold, Chang'an City is still the white filial piety that can be seen everywhere, and Lu Pheasant, who has just become the queen mother, has already lived in the Changle Palace, which originally belonged to the Son of Han Dynasty.
It's just that it is slightly different from Liu Ying's previous life: in this life, it was Liu Ying who took the initiative to propose, or give up Changle Palace.
Seeing Liu Ying's glance at him, Lu Pheasant's already hesitant face couldn't help but bring a little temptation.
"King Qi and King Chu, have they all been to Changling?"
But when Liu Ying heard this, she only nodded with a smile, and naturally stepped forward and sat down next to Lu Pheasant.
"Yui."
"Brother Wang and Uncle Wang, they have all gone to Changling to pay tribute to Emperor Gao, and at this moment, they are coming to Changle."
"And King Zhao, King Dai, King Wu, or it will still take a few days to arrive in Chang'an."
Listening to Liu Ying's tone, which was as indifferent as before, Lu Pheasant couldn't help but smile lightly and pulled Liu Ying's hand over.
"That's fine."
"When all the kings arrive, the emperor should also set up a family banquet to slightly loosen the family friendship with the kings."
"When Emperor Gao dies, he should be rewarded with one of the kings, and the emperor should also raise ······ first."
Hearing this, Liu Ying only squeezed out a stiff smile, nodded obediently, and spun his eyes on the floor at his feet.
Seeing Liu Ying reveal this expression again, Lu Pheasant finally put aside all the doubts in his heart, sighed lightly, pulled Liu Ying's head, and pressed it on his neck.
"Emperor Gao is a big deal, and my son is young and ······"
"In the future, I will leave my mother and son alone, and I will depend on each other for my life, and I will take care of the temple and the community······"
"Alas······"
"It's just that it's hard for my son······"
But when Liu Ying heard this, she only raised her head slightly with a sad expression, and looked at her mother's bloodshot eyes with pity.
"Children are not bitter."
"It's the queen mother, and I have to share this burden for my son······"
After that, the mother and son snuggled up to each other like this, and sighed for a long time.
After a while, he listened to Lu Pheasant's cold question, which provoked Liu Ying to straighten up and look at Lu Pheasant with a little seriousness.
"Emperor Gao's great line, my son's new monarch is established, you should know what it means: a son of heaven, a courtier?"
Hearing this, Liu Ying's face became a little more serious, but in her heart, there was a big alarm bell!
Liu Ying could guess with her eyes closed how Lu Pheasant's question appeared at this delicate point in time.
——The relatives of the Lu family, who have been 'cultivating' Liu Ying hard, I am afraid that they can't wait to harvest something······
raised a hundred thousand vigilance in his heart, but Liu Ying's face was quietly filled with a touch of thought.
"Hmmm······"
"The meaning of the queen mother, the child understands."
"Child, there is indeed one thing, I want to play the queen mother."
As she spoke, Liu Ying raised her head with a slight hesitation, looking at Lu Pheasant's gaze, but there was also a faint temptation.
"The three dukes and nine kings in the court, most of them are restored by Emperor Gao at the beginning of the year, except for the Tai Lieutenant, the rest, I am afraid that there is no other good choice."
"The position of Ran Lang Zhongling ······"
As if he had a deep meaning, he cut off the words, and saw that Liu Ying took a deep breath as if she was a little weak-hearted.
When Lu Pheasant's gaze at Liu Ying became more and more urgent, Liu Ying said with a worried face: "The queen mother also knows: Lang Zhongzhi, the guard and Zhonglang in the main palace, and the burden of escorting is shouldered. ”
"Today's Lang Zhongling Wuhu, although he is also a meritorious marquis, but in the past, Yu Mother and Yu Son did not know much about ······"
"Therefore, the position of Lang Zhongling, I am afraid that it is safe to be appointed as a person who is trusted by my family?"
Sure enough, as soon as Liu Ying's words came out, Lu Pheasant's face suddenly brought a touch of joy, but on his lips, Lu Pheasant still did not make a mistake.
"There is no urgency in this matter."
"Emperor Gao's bones are not cold, and the people in the court are determined, if Jiuqing is appointed and dismissed at this moment, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the court and discussions ······"
Listening to the old lady's words, even if she was not dissatisfied with the old lady, Liu Ying couldn't help but let out a sneer in her heart.
Hey!
- It is you who say 'once a son of heaven and a courtier', and you are the one who says 'unhurried'!
Good words, all let you Lu Shi say it!
But complaining is complaining, and Liu Ying can still understand the old lady's move.
After all, no matter how you say it, for so many years, Liu Ying's unbearable storage position has been stabilized by relying on the 'Zhulu' who made Liu Ying a little dissatisfied at the moment.
Although most of the time, it is the current Queen Mother Lu Pheasant who supports Liu Ying and does not fall from the position of the prince, but the people of 'Zhulu' are also an indispensable factor for Liu Ying's position to be protected.
It's like a family company in later generations.
- Liu Ying, as the quasi-chairman, has always been disliked by the chairman Liu Bang, and because of CEO Lu Pheasant, he has not changed the successor for a long time.
In this process, what forced Chairman Liu Bang to keep the status quo was naturally CEO Lu Pheasant; But the 'own people' who helped Lu Pheasant do specific work obviously also have credit.
And now, the old chairman has abdicated, the new chairman Liu Ying has taken office, and CEO Lu Pheasant has also become the acting chairman of the powerful board.
At this time, the 'own people' who had helped Liu Ying wanted to reap the fruits of victory and take up some higher-level positions, which was not an excessive request.
Of course, the most important thing is: Liu Ying's words are not entirely pretentious.
- Compared with Liang Zou Hou Wuhu, who has no more to weigh for Liu Ying except for his name, it is obvious that he has his mother Lu clan as his personal bodyguard: the position of Lang Zhongling can make Liu Ying feel more at ease.
Moreover, Lu Pheasant, who had explicitly or implicitly promised the Lu family that 'there will be a good reward in the future', also needed to take out a bone and send away his useless relatives.
Thinking of this, Liu Ying finally suppressed the nausea in her heart, and after a little thought, she grinned at Lu Pheasant.
"What the queen mother said is very true."
"Emperor Gao's bones are not cold, even if the position of the minister of the court is inappropriate, it should not be rushed."
"However, although we are not in a hurry to appoint or dismiss them, may we deliberate a little to determine the successor?"
Seeing that Liu Ying was so considerate to lift herself up the stairs, Lu Pheasant was also quite satisfied and went down the slope.
"That's right."
"It's okay to decide on the candidate first, and then appoint him later."
'Accepting' Liu Ying's proposal without a trace, Lu Pheasant's face finally swelled with a heartfelt smile.
"That being the case, the emperor thinks: Who should bear the weight of Lang Zhong's order?"
Hearing this, Liu Ying only smiled and bowed his hand to Lu Pheasant, although there was a little playfulness on his face, but in his tone, there was a seriousness in his temperament.
"I think that the old man has become a country, and he has a deep connection with my family, or it is credible, and he uses it ······"
·
Walking out of Changle Palace, sitting on the imperial chariot, and driving on the street back to Weiyang Palace, Liu Ying's face was only indescribably depressed.
Liu Ying understands the truth.
——As the 'hero' of Liu Ying's succession to the throne, the Lu clan made some demands, but there were no troops.
——As the patriarch of the Lu family, Lu Pheasant, who was able to temporarily take power of the dynasty because of the young age of the Son of Heaven, should indeed take care of his relatives a little.
But I don't know if it's an illusion: Liu Ying always felt that this feeling that everything was out of her control made Liu Ying feel a sense of chagrin inexplicably.
And this chagrin is different from the previous life!
In her previous life, Liu Ying was annoyed that she was a dignified son of heaven, but she was not as happy and free as a bird, and she had no authority in her hands!
In this life, the situation is obviously much better than in the previous life, although Liu Ying still failed to take charge of the government for the first time after ascending the throne, but at least he retained the right to make suggestions to his mother Lu Pheasant on some things.
For example, the distribution plan of Changle Palace and Weiyang Palace was only after Liu Ying took the initiative to put forward the suggestion of 'who is in power, who lives in Changle', and only with the permission of Lu Pheasant did the result of 'the queen mother live in Changle, and the emperor lives in Weiyang'.
Another example is Fang Cai, Liu Ying took the initiative to propose, and only then did he win a firm official position of 'Quasi-Lang Zhongling' for his uncle Lu Shizhi.
Compared with the dark years in the previous life when you couldn't manage anything and couldn't ask anything, the current situation is obviously more than a little better.
But even so, Liu Ying still feels from time to time: she seems to have become a person with a strong desire to control!
To put it simply, Liu Ying always feels that a mysterious force is forcing her to become a person who has to manage everything and control everything.
And under such a premise, everything that made Liu Ying feel more and more 'out of his control' also made Liu Ying gradually a little annoyed.
But all of this was ordered by the new eunuch next to Liu Ying: the little eunuch Chuntuo······
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty······"
"Huh?"
The little eunuch called softly, pulling Liu Ying's thoughts back to his eyes, and subconsciously frowned, and the little eunuch hurriedly lowered his head.
But the words have been spoken, and the Son of Heaven is looking at him because of his call, and even if Chuntuo wants to retreat at this moment, there is no way out.
After weighing it in his heart, Chun Tuo finally gritted his teeth and carefully considered the words before he bowed his hand to Liu Yingshen.
"Your Majesty."
"Recently, the palace attendants and maidservants seem to have a lot of complaints at the palace gates······"
As he spoke, Chun Tuo did not forget to raise his upper eyelids and looked intently at the changes in Liu Ying's expression.
"Say yes ······"
"It is said that it is the Sima Gate and the Chamber, and there are always some ······ in recent days."
"Uh, there's always some, desertion?"
"Palace people enter and exit the palace gate, it seems that they don't have to rely on palace cards anymore······"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Ying's still indifferent face couldn't help but tighten, and there was a faint chill in his gaze when he looked at Chuntuo.
As a eunuch, especially the head of the female eunuchs of Weiyang Palace: Eunuch Ling, Chuntuo's words, did not say too clearly.
——Sima Gate and Zuo Room Gate, both of which are palace gates located on the north wall of Weiyang Palace.
According to Chuntuo, these two palace gates have recently had the meaning of 'anyone can enter and exit freely'.
But Liu Ying heard another layer of extremely obscure reminders from Chuntuo's words.
"If I'm not mistaken······"
"Sima Men and the captains of the second door of the Chamber Gate are all nephews of the Lu family, right?"
If he said something meaningfully, seeing that Chun Tuo hurriedly lowered his head a little more, the corners of Liu Ying's mouth couldn't help but swell with a smile full of sarcasm.
"I also heard that in recent days, all the sons and nephews of the Lu family and the old ministers have been like a city, and there are endless visitors?"
"Is that the case?"
But when Chun Tuo heard this, he only hurriedly raised his head slightly, quickly gave a reply, and lowered his head again.
"Things outside the palace, slaves don't know, and they can't hear about it."
"Only in the palace, there seem to be many theories, but it is inappropriate to say that Zhu Lu is not ······"
Hearing this, Liu Ying only smiled meaningfully, then turned her head sideways and let out a long sigh leisurely out of the car window.
"Lu's ······"
"Hey ······"
"Sure enough, ······"
In the past two months, Liu Ying, as the crown prince, has been staying with the late emperor Liu Bang in the Changxin Hall of Changle Palace.
And in the past two months, if someone makes statistics, it will inevitably be found that the two words that appear most frequently in the conversation between the father and son are 'Lu's'!
From the queen Lu Pheasant at that time, to Lu Shizhi, Lu Tai, Lu Chan, Lu Lu and other Lu relatives and men, and then to Guan Ying, Fu Kuan, Jin She and other 'Zhou Lu Department old'······
But whenever there is a conversation about the 'Lu family', you can always get such a conclusion from the mouth of the old emperor Liu Bang at that time:
——When I close my eyes, Lu Shichen will be reversed!
And the current actual situation, although it is not as exaggerated as Liu Bang once expected, but from the perspective of 'the way of the monarch and the minister', it is not much different.
Look at Chuntuo?
The eunuch of the dignified Weiyang Palace, the eunuch leader of more than 2,000 stones, can only beat around the bush and mention 'There are a few people in the Lu family, and they have left their posts a little without permission'!
What if it's someone else?
Hey!
As the saying goes: You can't offend an official in life, and you can't offend a prison in death!
The group of eunuchs, aside from anything else, has the talents of 'holding grudges' and 'bad things' alone, which is absolutely rare in history!
Those who offend this group and can still be officials in a good manner either have a monstrous background or hold monstrous authority!
And Sima Gate, Zuo Room Gate, the door captain of the two palace gates of Weiyang Palace, and the officials of the Qianshi level, have already made Chun Tuo, who is a eunuch order, can only use eye medicine in a roundabout way······
"Don't rush ······"
"Don't rush ······"
His eyes murmured coldly, Liu Ying didn't look back, and pointed at Chun Tuo on his side.
"In the future, wherever I am not there, I will take my eyes and ears and probe them."
"Yu Zhen will be alone, and then bring ······"
As she explained, Liu Ying lowered the curtain and slowly closed her eyes.
- Today's Lu family, not only Chuntuo can't be provoked, but even Liu Ying, who is the emperor, and even Liu Bang, who used to be can't be provoked!
And the experience of her previous life told Liu Ying that there was no need to waste more time on this matter.
After all, there are some things that you can't do if you want to do them.
To do this, it takes time, it takes accumulation, and at the same time, it also requires a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity······
