Chapter 0338 Si is a burrow, but Wu Dexin
At the end of the crown ceremony, according to the usual practice, it should be the Son of Heaven Liu Ying and the Queen Mother Lu Pheasant who returned to the palace with the courtiers and hundreds of officials, and officially opened the first court meeting after Liu Ying's crowning.
But before the team set off, a problem that had been forgotten by the court intentionally or unintentionally was finally put on the table by the helpless Feng Changqing's uncle Sun Tong.
——According to the Han system, the imperial palace is the east palace Changle······
As for the West Palace Weiyang, where Liu Ying still lives, it should have been the harem where the queen or the queen mother lived.
This is also clear from the internal layout of the two palaces of Changle and Weiyang.
The Shaofu Workshop, the East and West Weaving Room, the official office, the Jiaofang Hall where the queen lives, and the Weiyang stable where the servants raise horses are all located in the Weiyang Palace;
However, the ritual departments such as the bell room and the Fengchang official office, that is, the theoretical 'key' departments, are all located in the Changle Palace.
And since the Han Dynasty, except for the beginning, the first emperor Liu Bang temporarily lived in the eastern capital of Luoyang for several years, every court meeting held in the Han court hall was held in the main hall of Changxin in Changle Palace.
In this way, the problem is clear at a glance.
——In the nearly two years since the death of the former emperor Liu Bang, the palace Changle has always been occupied by the regent Empress Dowager: Lu Pheasant;
And Liu Ying, the son of heaven who has not yet been crowned pro-government, lives in Weiyang Palace, which should have been for the queen and the queen mother.
At present, Liu Ying is crowned and is about to come to the court, and hold a court meeting to accept the worship of courtiers and officials.
However, the place where the court meeting was held, the Changxin Hall of Changle Palace, is still the territory of the Empress Dowager Lu Pheasant······
Regarding the question raised by Shusun Tong, although the courtiers and officials were very admired, no one dared to stand up and propose.
- Although the Queen Mother should not live in Changle, as the Queen Mother Regent, Lu Pheasant lives in Changle Palace, and there is indeed no problem!
On the other hand, Liu Ying, the son of heaven in the past, although he should have lived in Changle Palace, but on the premise of 'not yet crowning the pro-government', he temporarily gave Changle Palace to his mother Lu Pheasant, and he temporarily lived in Changle Palace, and no one could make a mistake.
As for the present, Liu Ying's crown ceremony has been completed, and when he is about to become pro-government, whether Lu Pheasant and Liu Ying's mother and son should change their residences or not is not something that any courtiers and relatives with foreign surnames can interfere with.
Because of this incident, if you are not careful, it may cause an estrangement between Lu Pheasant and Liu Ying's mother and son, so that the person who interferes will bear the charge of 'separating the mother and son of the heavenly family'!
And such a crime, even today's Zongbo Liu Jiao, can't afford it at all······
·
"Hmm······"
"The minister has a word, which should not be said, but he cannot fail to say it······"
The royal chariot who turned back to Changle Palace drove on Zhangtai Street unhurriedly, and Liu Ying, who was sitting on the chariot, was a light cloud and light breeze on his face;
However, Liu Jiao, the king of Chu, who was invited by Liu Ying and returned with him, finally couldn't hold back after repeated ideological struggles, and got up and gave Liu Ying a little bow.
When Liu Yingwen smiled and nodded, he saw Liu Jiao frowning and looking at Liu Ying with a solemn expression.
"Your Majesty."
"The emperor Changle, followed by Weiyang, is the system proposed by Emperor Taizu Gao; In His Majesty, and the ministers and other Liu clan relatives, this is the ancestral system. ”
"In the past, His Majesty was young and uncrowned, and Emperor Taizu Gao had an edict on his deathbed: the Queen Mother will temporarily take charge of the court, waiting for His Majesty to be crowned; Your Majesty is happy to be happy with the Queen Mother because of filial piety, which is not inappropriate. ”
"However, now, Your Majesty's crown ceremony is completed, and the pro-government of the dynasty is about to begin, how can you still make the Queen Mother live alone in Changle, and your Majesty will live in Weiyang?"
With these words in a solemn tone, Liu Jiao raised his head worriedly and looked at Liu Ying's gaze, with only a trace of doubt that could not be concealed.
In front of Liu Jiao, seeing Liu Jiao's unusually straightforward advice, Liu Ying had no choice but to relax a little on her face, that is, her body was also slightly upright.
"Uncle Wang's worries, I know it in my chest."
"However, Uncle Wang, I am afraid I have never thought of ······"
With a slight sigh, he saw Liu Ying smile lightly, and shook his head again.
"As Uncle Wang said: In the past, the queen mother was in charge of the dynasty and lived in Changle, which was the prestige of the fake Taizu Emperor Gao, and there was nothing wrong with it; Now that I am crowned and the government is imminent, I should respectfully ask my mother to move to Weiyang. ”
"However, Uncle Wang has ever imagined: If the crown salute is performed at the time of the festival, and the queen mother is driven out of Changle at noon, and the people of the world can not say that I am disloyal, unfilial, mean and unkind?"
"And the court ministers, the fathers and nobles, don't you think that I am as indifferent as water after my mother, and there is no mother-son friendship and filial piety at all?"
"If this is the case, after a hundred years, why should I face Emperor Taizu Gao and the late Marquis Wu of Zhou Lu Ling?"
"In the future, how can I face the people of the world and say that I am 'ordered by the heavens and shepherd the world on behalf of the heavens'???"
With a slightly serious face, Liu Ying asked a few questions one after another, and Liu Ying did not forget to stop talking for a while, so that Liu Jiao could digest it a little.
Then, Liu Yingcai smiled slightly and patted Liu Jiao's arm cordially.
"I know Uncle Wang's concerns, but only my Liu's plan and only Zongmiao's plan."
"However, when Emperor Taizu Gao was dying, he entrusted the livelihood of the temple and the people of the world, and I did not dare to ······be cautious in such an important matter."
"And I have tasted and heard: the mountain is not high, and there are immortals; The water is not deep, and if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual; Si is a burrow, but Wu Dexin? ”
"Huh······"
"If I can save my own body three times a day, inherit the will of Emperor Taizu Gao, love the people with benevolence and righteousness, be lenient to support the people, eliminate internal and external troubles, strengthen my Han, and live in a thatched house, I should also be self-respecting;"
"On the contrary, if I am tyrannical and perverse, and regard the world as a mustard, the palace room where I live is higher than Mount Tai and the East China Sea, and it will only be a ······ in the end."
After saying that, Liu Ying finally smiled shyly, and then looked up at Liu Jiao with a smile.
"Uncle Wang thinks, is this true?"
Hearing Liu Ying's words, Liu Jiao was subconsciously anxious.
Seeing the firmness in Liu Ying's eyes and the lightness in his temperament, Liu Jiaozong still had doubts, and finally had to nod his head slowly, indicating that he agreed with Liu Ying's statement.
In fact, on the matter of 'Lu Pheasant, Liu Ying's mother and son, who lives in Changle and who lives in Weiyang', Liu Jiao's position is still more biased towards the sentence said by the late Marquis Xiao He nearly ten years ago.
——The husband and son of heaven are all over the world, and they are not magnificent, and they are not so powerful that future generations will have them!
As a newly unified regime that originated from recklessness and stood in troubled times, and actually had no bloodline and legal inheritance, the Han dynasty really needed to strengthen the legitimacy of the regime through the method of 'not magnificent and unprecedented'.
But from another point of view, Liu Ying's explanation can be regarded as the correct answer on another level.
-- The legitimacy of the regime may need to be strengthened by some image engineering, but it should never be established entirely by image engineering.
It couldn't be simpler.
——Xia died at the hands of Xia Ji (sì) 癸, is it because the palace room of the summer capital is not gorgeous enough?
Or is it that Emperor Xin, the Shang Emperor Xin, who broke off the Yin Shang Dynasty, is not majestic enough?
Obviously, neither.
From this point of view, it is indeed as Liu Yingfang said: if the emperor can really love the people like a son, then even if the palace is a thatched house, it must be 'only my virtue';
On the contrary, if the emperor regards the likes of Ji and Su as lifelong idols, then even if he lives in the Heavenly Palace, he will sooner or later be pulled down from the throne by the Chinese people who are 'rather kind'.
You must know that Huaxia is a fierce nation that doesn't even raise 'idle gods'!
Even the incompetence of the gods will be ruthlessly abandoned or even spurned by the fierce Chinese nation, not to mention the tyrannical monarch who claims to be 'ordered by heaven'.
Of course, if the person sitting in front of him at this moment is his brother Liu Bang, Emperor Gao of the Han Dynasty, then Liu Jiao may try to persuade him again to restore the normal situation of 'the Son of Heaven lives in Changle and subdues the four seas'.
But after thinking about the nephew Liu Ying in front of him, Liu Jiao was relieved.
——The one in front of him, but under the eyes of everyone, he shouted the sentence 'If Zheng Guoqu is not repaired for a day, Chang'an City will not be built for a day'!
Compared with the sentence that has spread all over the world, 'if the canal is not successful, it will not be built', Liu Ying once again ceded Changle Palace to the Queen Mother Lu Pheasant on the grounds of 'although I am crowned, but still young', which is an extremely common thing.
Moreover, the other points mentioned by Liu Ying are not unreasonable.
——At this moment, the reason why Liu Jiao was able to sit on the imperial chariot and persuade Liu Ying to 'think about it again and strive to live in Changle Palace as soon as possible' was precisely because a moment ago, Liu Ying skillfully resolved this problem and perfectly resolved this small hidden danger with the decision of 'everything is as usual'!
But if it was Fang Cai, Liu Ying really took the words of his uncle and grandson, and said, 'I should indeed live in Changle Palace', then at this moment, Liu Jiao is afraid that he will hide in the palace of the king of Chu in Shangguanli, and think about how to live to the end of his life in the hands of this ruthless nephew.
Overall, Liu Jiao's first reaction to Liu Ying's final decision was 'this may not work';
But after careful consideration, Liu Jiaozhong still had to admit that for the Han family, Liu Ying's refusal, at least 'temporarily refusing to live in Changle', may be the best way to deal with it.
Compared with the 'Son of Heaven lives in Changle Palace, and the Queen Mother lives in Weiyang Palace', today's Han family obviously needs a stable political environment.
Of course, there is another point that Liu Ying did not say explicitly, but at the moment she was thinking in her heart.
——Driving the Queen Mother's wife out of Changle Palace by 'crowning adults' will not only make Liu Ying leave the impression of 'unfilial' in the hearts of the people of the world, but also make waves in the originally stable court.
The most important thing is: if Liu Ying really does this, I am afraid that even the Queen Mother Lu Pheasant, who looks lazy and seems to have faded away, will also be stimulated!
Even according to the most ideal prediction, Lu Pheasant will at least have a grudge against Liu Ying.
And today's Han family obviously can't bear the serious consequences of 'disagreement between the emperor and the queen', especially the disagreement between the weak-crowned emperor and the regent empress dowager.
Therefore, all the doubts that Liu Ying told Liu Jiao just now can be said to be secondary, or even completely for Liu Jiao.
For the internal stability of the Han family, and for himself to better control the court situation in the future, the consideration of 'not making the old lady angry' alone is enough for Liu Ying to make a vow to 'never live in Changle Palace'!
Anyway, in the past few years, plus the ten years in his previous life, Liu Ying has been used to living in Weiyang Palace; For living in Changle Palace, Liu Ying has no obsession.
——Compared with living in Changle Palace, trying to make the old lady unhappy, but only getting a void aura of 'living in the palace', it is obviously a real and tangible benefit such as crowning pro-government and deep mother-son affection, which is more attractive to Liu Ying.
Liu Ying asked her uncle Liu Jiao to ride with her, not to listen to Liu Jiao's persuasion to 'grab the right to live in Changle Palace with the Queen Mother'.
Thinking of this, Liu Ying took a deep breath with a relaxed face, and exhaled with relief;
When she raised her head again, Liu Ying looked at Liu Jiao's gaze, which was already buzzing with a touch of solemnity.
"Since the eleventh year of Emperor Taizu Gao, the grain needed by the princely states of the Kwantung clan has been purchased by Shaofu in Shaofu, and then transported to Aocang for the princes to send people to pick up."
"It's only been a year, and I seem to have heard of it: Wu Wangbi bought Guanzhong grain in Shaofu, and there was a lot of criticism about the loss of the Guandong princes?"
Meaningfully asked, Liu Ying looked meaningfully at the depths of Liu Jiao's gaze, and pretended to smile relaxedly.
"I don't know about this, Uncle Wang has heard of it?"
Before Liu Ying's words fell, she saw Liu Jiao's face suddenly tighten, and there was a hint of surprise in her dodging gaze!
But soon, Liu Jiao adjusted his mood and quickly gave the most suitable answer he could give and should give.
"The minister has heard a little about this matter, but he also knows about it."
"There seems to be a rumor in Chu State: after Liu Jia, the king of Jing, three out of ten people in Jingdi abandoned the land and left, and there are not many people who escaped into the mountains and forests."
"Xu is the people's mouth is not abundant, and the Jingdi is slightly barren, so Wu Wangkou has gaffes and slanders the country's politics?"
Saying this in a tone that was very uncertain, as if chatting and guessing, Liu Jiao naturally lowered his head with a light smile, and put on a posture of 'I know so much, Your Majesty asks again, I don't know anything'.
However, when Liu Ying heard Liu Jiao's words, the smile on her face deepened, and she looked at Liu Jiao for a while, before shaking her head and sighing sideways, looking at the people of Chang'an outside the imperial chariot and stopping on the side of Zhangtai Street.
——Regarding the situation of Liu Bi, the king of Wu, Liu Ying knows it well.
The barren land, the sparse population, and the harsh climate and geographical location were enough to make Liu Biao emaciated, and he couldn't think of ways to strengthen the state of Wu.
But Liu Ying also knows that Liu Bi's 'disdainful of selling grain in Shaofu is expensive', but it is not entirely out of the bad situation he is facing······
"Some time ago, I read the ancient miscellaneous books, and it was said: In the land of Jingchu, there are many copper and iron mines, especially the copper of Jingdi, which is known in the world because of its good quality?"
Leng Buding asked, and Liu Ying looked at Liu Jiao's gaze, and finally brought a touch of undisguised scrutiny.
"According to Uncle Wang's opinion, King Wu is resentful of me, but he wants to open the copper mountain but can't, so he complains to me with this 'poor' word?"
