Chapter 0298: Old Stubborn Cow, This Is Not a Small Matter!
In this way, the 'Liu Ruyi mother and son', who once made Liu Ying afraid like a tiger and even had trouble sleeping, miraculously survived after Liu Ying, a little butterfly, flapped its wings gently.
Although Liu Ying can only lock herself up in Weiyang Palace because of the old lady's 'grounding order', Liu Yingzi also has enough channels to know about the news outside the palace.
——In July, Liu Ruyi, who had been 'surrounded' in the palace by the soldiers of the Southern Army for a month, was finally summoned by the Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant.
After Lu Pheasant's gentle admonition and the indifferent warning of his biological mother, Mrs. Qi, Liu Ruyi finally waited for the ending he deserved: moving Wang Huainan.
Only a few days after the promulgation of the edict, Liu Ruyi, the newly baked king of Huainan, left Chang'an in a low-key manner, accompanied by a new team of courtiers: Zhang Cang, the left minister of Huainan, Zhou Chang, the right minister, Chen Ping, the prince Taifu, and Lieutenant Lu Tai.
coincided with the imminent autumn harvest, and the people of Guanzhong had no time to take care of anything else, and the public opinion turmoil caused by Liu Ruyi's mother and son was no longer over.
In the middle of autumn and July, the Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant officially issued a letter of reply to the Xiongnu Shan Yu Maodun, once again indicating the covenant that 'Han and Hungary are all brothers and do not seek each other';
In addition, hundreds of pieces of cloth, thousands of stones of grain, tea, salt and other materials as 'gifts', as well as a 'princess' who had just been given the surname Liu for only half a month, and the Han family, which was still in the period of power transition, could be regarded as a short-term peace.
- At least this winter, the Huns will not go south on a large scale and invade the north of the Han dynasty as an organization.
Time passed day by day, and soon, it came to the autumn and September of the twelfth year of Emperor Taizu Gao.
The New Year is approaching, and the entire Chang'an court is busy with the upcoming grand court ceremony and the enthronement ceremony of the new monarch Liu Ying.
It was also at this delicate time node that a piece of news that made Liu Ying sit on wax again spread in Chang'an.
——Before the death of the former emperor Liu Bang, he left an edict, clearly ordering Liu Ying, the son of heaven, to be crowned when he reached the age of seventeen.
What made the entire Chang'an, because of this unknown 'rumor', fall into a long trajectory is the age of Liu Ying, the son of heaven.
Today's Liu Ying was born in the same year as the death of the First Emperor Yingzheng (210 BC).
In the twelfth year of Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty (195 BC), Liu Ying had already reached the age of fifteen; As soon as the New Year passes, Liu Ying will be 16 years old······

"Ministers, welcome Your Majesty~"
In the autumn and September of the twelfth year of the Han Dynasty, Chang'an Weiyang Palace.
The arrival of Liu Ying, the son of heaven, made the courtiers and officials who were busy in the palace couldn't help but stop their work, and with a festive smile, they bowed to Liu Ying.
As for the obvious joyful expressions of everyone, it is naturally because of the increasingly strong 'New Year's flavor'.
One hundred years later, the Chinese New Year is the first day of the first month of spring after Dong Zhongshu advocated 'Wang Zhengyue, Great Unification';
Thousands of years later, the Chinese New Year is the first day of the first lunar month.
For the Han family, which still implements the calendar, the New Year is the first day of October.
——The so-called Zhuān xū calendar, the first day of October is the first year of the year, and the first day of the first month of October is the first day of the Yuan Shuo.
Since the 26th year of the first emperor, who unified the world and spread the calendar to the world, the first day of October has always been the 'first year of the year' that Chinese people are accustomed to.
For ordinary people, eleven yuan shuo means that the year's farming can finally be completely over, and the harvested winter grain can finally be put into the warehouse;
Then outside the door of the house, the new peach charm printed with the god and the god brother of Yu Leimen, by the way, burn a few bamboo joints that have just been cut down in the courtyard and still contain water, and listen to a few 'pop' firecrackers, the past year's hard work is considered to be in the past.
For the Gaomen Xian people, the activities of the Yuanshuo New Year are relatively richer;
If the conditions are worse, they always have to greet the children and nephews of the Qi family to have a decent reunion dinner; If the conditions are better, you may even invite a witch doctor to hold a small exorcism ritual to please the winner.
But when the word 'Yuanshuo' is placed in front of the ruling class, especially the central court, everything becomes extremely complicated.
This year's Yuanshuo is the first grand ceremony after the new monarch Liu Ying ascended the throne, as well as the enthronement ceremony;
In ordinary years, at the head of the year, courtiers, officials, and nobles also need to strictly follow the etiquette system and bring the items prescribed by the etiquette law to congratulate Liu Ying, the son of heaven.
Then, since it is the preservation link of the first great court ceremony - the old ministers talk about the past and the present, quote the scriptures, and point out the shortcomings in the world; The Son of Heaven was compassionate and ashamed to accept the advice, saying that he would 'definitely correct it'.
After that, it is the winter solstice of the lunar month, and the Da Da exorcism ceremony held in the palace needs to be presided over by the Son of Heaven himself, and every central official and meritorious relatives must be present to participate.
When all this is done, the new year will cost more than two months, and it will be the winter of the lunar month and the first month is approaching, and the 'young and middle-aged reserve military winter drill' that Guanzhong will hold every year will start to put on the agenda······
To put it simply: for the Chang'an court, there is no holiday of 'spring ploughing and summer farming, autumn harvest and winter break', and there is no winter and summer vacation that later generations of students are accustomed to.
Even in the frozen winter, the Chang'an court still needs to maintain its operation, and seamlessly connect to the spring of the next year, starting from spring ploughing to start another round of reincarnation.
Fortunately, now, Liu Ying is still just an 'honorary son of heaven', although he is crowned by the Son of Heaven, he has not been crowned pro-government at all;
Therefore, although Liu Ying has to participate in all the activities of the head of Yuanshuo, Liu Ying has nothing else to do except show his face in the event.
When she had nothing to do, she was 'grounded in the palace' by the old lady, and seeing the officialdom outside the hall and inside the palace walls busy, Liu Yingzi couldn't hold back her curiosity.
Throwing aside the "Han Law" that was about to fall apart, Liu Ying casually stepped on a pair of shoes and walked out of his Xuanshu Palace.
Looking at the dense and busy figures in the palace, Liu Ying, who has been 'retreating' in the palace for a long time, couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.
But after walking out of the palace gate and looking at the things in the palace for a while, Liu Ying's relaxed and happy heart was mentioned in the blink of an eye!
"Whose order is this?!"
A loud shout suddenly provoked the figures within dozens of steps around to stop their movements, looked at Liu Ying a little confused, and invariably looked into the distance.
raised his head and looked at the sight of everyone around him, and when he saw the old figure with gold and silver hanging on his waist and a purple ribbon, Liu Ying's already tightened face only sank a little more.
I don't know if I heard Liu Ying's call or felt the strange atmosphere, the old man explained a few times, then turned around very naturally and walked quickly in front of Liu Ying.
"Your Majesty······"
"Why?!"
Without waiting for Wang Ling's words of worship to come out, Liu Ying asked impatiently, and there was a hint of reproach in his tone!
But seeing that Wang Ling was still unhurried, he straightened up with a smile, and did not forget to wipe the sweat droplets from the corners of his forehead, before he smiled and showed his few remaining teeth.
"Why did Your Majesty ask this?"
"Isn't this what you should do?"
Speaking in a relaxed tone, Wang Ling smiled again, waved his hand to everyone around him, signaled to continue working, and then gently pulled Liu Ying aside, and his face couldn't help but be a little sad.
"Your Majesty."
"This year's great court ceremony is a great ceremony for His Majesty's new monarch to succeed, and it is also a good opportunity for His Majesty to be crowned a meritorious hero and rewarded with Yuan's followers!"
"Such a major matter related to the temple and the community, why does Your Majesty also want to do it in Changle?"
Hearing Zhang Cang's words, although Liu Ying did not speak, the gloomy look on her face did not have the slightest tendency to relax.
Look at what the king's tombs have done?
The altars, ritual utensils, and even high platforms used in the enthronement ceremony······
- Wang Ling, obviously wants to put this year's big court ceremony in Weiyang Palace!!
Thinking of this, Liu Ying's already gloomy face couldn't help but tighten a little, and even the tooth socket was clenched by Liu Ying!
If it weren't for Wang Ling's 'old man in his previous life', Liu Ying would almost think that Wang Ling was another chaotic minister and thief who 'separated the mother and son of the Heavenly Family'!
Even if he knew that Wang Ling's move was not malicious, Liu Ying at this moment did not dare to make a big deal in such an extremely important political activity.
——The major events of the country, only Rong and ritual!
And for today's Han family, especially for today's Liu Ying, in addition to paying homage to the Taimiao and Gao Temple during the New Year's holidays, this time the Great Dynasty Ceremony + Enthronement Ceremony is the most important part of the 'ritual'!
Especially at this moment, there are rumors outside the palace, and the streets and alleys are talking about 'will the young emperor start tidying up the court immediately and start preparing for the next year's pro-government', even if Liu Ying's brain is kicked by Mrs. Qi, it is impossible to use the big court ceremony to stimulate the old lady Lu Pheasant!
Thinking of this, Liu Ying looked at Wang Ling's gaze, and immediately brought a touch of instinctive defense!
But in the end, Liu Ying still struggled to accept the fact that 'Wang Ling is really not a traitor'.
Then, Liu Ying, a young man who was only fifteen years old, turned over with a solemn face and preached about the seventy-year-old old minister, who was the internal history of the court: the tomb of the Marquis of Anguo.
"The loyalty of the Marquis of An Guo, I know it, and I respect it very much."
"However, the Marquis of An Guohou did not only think of the power of the Son of Heaven, but regarded the Queen Mother as nothing?!"
"This year is weak, the government affairs of the DPRK and China are all in charge and decided by the Queen Mother, and the government decrees are all out of Changle Palace!"
"At such a time, if An Guohou does such a different act, won't he make me fall into the land of disloyalty, filial piety, and injustice in front of the Queen Mother?!"
Before hearing that Liu Ying had heard about it, the old Wang Ling had a vigorous appearance, but after hearing Liu Ying's straightforward inquiry later, Wang Ling's face suddenly stiffened a little.
Today's episode, to say that Wang Ling has no selfishness, it may indeed be a bit hypocritical.
But even if there is selfishness, Wang Ling's selfishness is definitely not contrary to justice!
——Before the death of the first emperor Liu Bang, the edict 'Prince Liu Ying succeeded to the throne of the emperor, and the seventeenth year was crowned pro-government', and Wang Ling was present!
In Wang Ling's opinion, since the first emperor has made an explanation, he should follow the will of the first emperor, perform the crown salute when Liu Ying is seventeen years old, and take charge of the dynasty!
Now, Liu Ying is nearly 16 years old, and there is only more than a year left before the emperor 'was crowned at the age of seventeen'.
At the age of seventeen, he was crowned and pro-government, so naturally he couldn't die at the age of seventeen and be crowned before he began to think about taking charge of the dynasty, but he should prepare early and start taking over power as soon as possible!
And the upcoming great court ceremony, as well as Liu Ying's enthronement ceremony, is a good opportunity for the royal tomb to seriously 'stand up for grace and power'!
If you miss this opportunity, in the coming year, Liu Ying will only be able to pinch mud in Weiyang Palace;
In the coming year, Liu Ying will be seventeen years old, but he doesn't even understand the structure of the court, and at that time, even if Wang Ling and other old ministers stand up and support Liu Ying's 'crowning and pro-government in accordance with the edict of the first emperor', I am afraid that some people with ulterior motives will jump out······
"Alas!"
Thinking of this, I saw Wang Ling gritting his teeth and stomping his feet full of suffocation, and the indifference in his temperament turned into stubbornness and stubbornness in an instant!
"What Your Majesty said, the minister does not dare to agree!"
"——As the saying goes: only the name and the instrument, no dummies!"
"When Emperor Taizu Gao was about to make a big trip, he once said to his ministers: When His Majesty and the crown, the ministers should be in charge of the Prime Minister's Mansion and protect the majesty of His Majesty!"
"Although His Majesty has not yet reached the crown, and the minister has not yet been the prime minister, but the edict of the former emperor, the minister, dare not disobey !!"
The urn angrily dropped this sentence, and Wang Ling pinned his head to the side like an angry child, as if he had completely forgotten that what was standing in front of him was the 'king' in his mouth······
If it was in his previous life, he was so provoked by Wang Ling, Liu Ying would indeed be anxious with him, and then have trouble with Wang Ling for three days and two nights.
But after nine years of getting along in his previous life, and in that short one-year 'working together' career, Liu Ying, who had long known Wang Ling's temperament, laughed lightly at this moment.
"Why is Your Majesty laughing?!"
Seeing that the old stubborn cow asked as if he was not convinced, Liu Ying only smiled lightly and shook his head.
"When my father was still alive, he once said: The tomb of the Marquis of Anguo is longer than upright, and shorter than bending and stretching······"
"Today, it seems that there is no fallacy in the emperor's statement?"
Seeing that the young genius, who was nearly a round younger than him, actually made fun of himself in turn, the old stubborn cow couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
It was also taking advantage of this fleeting opportunity that Liu Ying stretched out her hand without pretentiousness and gently pulled Wang Ling's arm.
"I also hope that the Marquis of An Guo will send the palace people and officials first, and raise a great court ceremony in Changle."
Whispering, Liu Ying rushed to Wang Ling's wrist before he could speak!
"This incident is not enough for outsiders!"
"I only have one word to tell the Marquis of An."
"——Recently, there have been many rumors in Chang'an, and it is said that I am in charge of the Linzhao Dynasty!"
"However, I thought that this was probably spread by a small person with ulterior motives, in order to trap me in the ······ of injustice"
The expression was full of sternness, and Liu Ying's gaze at Wang Ling was faintly pleading.
"I still hope that the Marquis of An Guo, knowing what I am worried about······"
"If the Marquis of An cannot be trusted by me, I am afraid that above the Han family's court, I will no longer have a credible person·······"
