Chapter 21: Hold on to the waves

"Meet the Princess!"

As soon as Concubine Li came to the door of the first hall, she saw her three sons standing side by side, greeting her.

"Good, good, good!"

With a big smile on her face, she took the hands of her three sons and walked into the temple.

These three sons can be said to be her greatest pride and dependence.

The two of them were the princes of the Han Empire: the King of Hejian and the King of Linjiang; One is the quasi-prince and quasi-emperor of the Han Empire.

The three brothers were not only very filial, but also harmonious with each other, which is what parents want to see the most.

She was very pleased.

"What are you eating, it smells so good?"

As soon as Concubine Li entered the door, she smelled the aroma of hot pot.

Liu Yan, the king of Linjiang, took the lead in saying: "This is a new invention of the eldest brother's food, called hot pot, which is particularly delicious and tasteful in the world, and can be called the first food in the world." ”

Liu De, the king of Hejian, followed closely and held the chopsticks for Concubine Li: "Mother, you taste, what the third brother said is true." ”

Concubine Li listened to the words of her two sons, and her index finger suddenly moved.

"Oh, is it? I'll taste it. ”

I couldn't stop this taste.

One bite or two, one bite and two mouthfuls, one bite and one bite like minions, like the steps of the devil.

Concubine Li ate it directly.

After living in the palace for so many years, she has eaten all the delicacies of the mountains and seas, how could she have eaten such delicious food.

She has been eating a pot of dry bowls, and she has exhausted the mountains and rivers before she stops.

At the end, he still wanted to say to Liu Rong: "Rong'er, prepare a hot pot tomorrow, and I will come to eat it for my mother." ”

Liu Rong nodded helplessly, yes, treat me as a cafeteria.

。。。。。。

Seeing that Concubine Li had eaten about the same, Liu Rong asked tentatively, "Why did the mother concubine come today?" ”

From Concubine Li's expression when she came, Liu Rong knew that something was definitely wrong.

"Hey, I almost forgot about business." Concubine Li gently and slowly rubbed her stomach, as if to help digest the hot pot she had just eaten.

"Rong'er, today your aunt, Princess Tao, came to the palace to find me, saying that she wanted to marry Gillian to you, but I refused."

"What? You refused? When Liu Rong heard this, he suddenly became a head and two big, and he asked eagerly, "Why?" ”

I'm really afraid of what, he obviously greeted Concubine Li before, why did she still refuse!

You must know that in the real history, it was because of Concubine Li's arrogance that she rejected Princess Guantao's proposal, which made Liu Che pick up a cheap daughter-in-law.

In the end, Liu Rong was deposed and committed suicide, and Concubine Li died depressed, all from this.

What a pig teammate, I can't take it at all.

Looking at Liu Rong's anxious affection, Concubine Li sneered,

"Silly son, mother teases you. I have already promised Princess Guantao that I should do this family business. In a few days, we will find a suitable time and report it to Your Majesty and the Queen Mother. Look at you in a hurry, but don't forget your mother if you have a daughter-in-law. ”

Liu Rong jumped to his feet angrily, and couldn't help but want to burst into foul language: Such a big thing, what are you kidding, it scared me to death.

"Rong'er, you know, I originally wanted to reject her." I only heard Concubine Li say to herself: "Hmph, most of those fox spirits in the palace are dedicated to Her Majesty, including the hateful Wang sisters." But since you said that you want to marry Gillian, you won't have to worry about her as a mother. ”

。。。。。。

It is an old tradition for the eldest princess of the Han Dynasty to pimp the emperor.

And the Wang sisters in Concubine Li's mouth are talking about Wang Wan and Wang Haojiao, they are sisters, recommended by Princess Tao of the Museum, and became the favorite concubines of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.

At present, the sisters are young and beautiful, and they are the most favored in the harem.

Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty had a total of fourteen sons, and two of them gave birth to five, and they were the last five.

Among them, the tenth Liu Che was born to Wang Huan; The eleventh Liu Yue, the twelfth Liu Ji, the thirteenth Liu Cheng, and the fourteenth Liu Shun were all born to Wang Haojiao.

Parents love their young sons, both ancient and modern, and the emperor is not exempt from vulgarity.

Qin Shi Huang did not set up his eldest son to support Su but to establish his youngest son Hu Hai, which is a lesson from the past.

At present, it seems that Liu Che is the biggest threat to Liu Rong, and it will be difficult to say in the future, and the other four are also hidden dangers.

Today, people close to him gathered together, and Liu Rong temporarily decided to hold a meeting to unify his thoughts.

He dismissed the crowd, and only the four of them were left in the room.

First of all, he said to Concubine Li earnestly:

"Mother, how many times have I told you, you must let go of your hostility towards the princess of the Pavilion Tao and your jealousy of the other favored concubines in the palace, this will ruin you and the three of us brothers."

"Even if the princess doesn't offer beauties, others will, so you don't have to resent Princess Guantao because of this."

"In addition, there will never be a shortage of young and beautiful concubines around my father. If you want to compete for favor with beauty, you will never be able to compete with them, so you have to find another way, compete for favor with virtue, take into account the overall situation everywhere, and think about your father, so that it is a long-term plan for favor and favor, and you don't have to be afraid of color decay and love. ”

Liu Rong stood up, sighed, and continued:

"Empress Bo has no children, I am the oldest, and it seems that I am most likely to be made the crown prince by my father. Because of this, everyone sees us as a thorn in the side and wants to get rid of it as soon as possible. ”

"We are in a precarious situation and we must not be careless. All the concubines, princes, clansmen, relatives, and ministers who want to profit in the battle for the crown prince are our potential enemies, and they will try to move me in every possible way, shooting countless secret spears and cold arrows at us, trying to kill us. ”

"It's cold in high places, so we have to be vigilant and cautious all the time. As long as we give someone a chance, we will be hit in an instant, and then we will be stepped on 10,000 feet, and we will never be able to turn over. ”

He turned to his two younger brothers and said:

"Recently, there have been rumors in the court that my father is going to cut the feudal domain, you have all heard it."

"Once the matter of cutting the feudal domain starts, the princes everywhere are bound to be in turmoil, and there will inevitably be a big war at that time."

"After you return to the feudal country, you must pay attention to accumulating strength, be wary of changes in other princes, protect your own safety, and help your father and emperor make contributions at critical moments."

Seeing that the eldest brother was very serious, the two younger brothers stood up one after another and nodded solemnly.

"Big brother, is there really a big war?"

Liu Rong sighed, "As long as my father is determined to cut the domain, the princes will rebel." ”

As a time-traveler, he is still very clear about the history of the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms.

In his opinion, Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty's cutting of the feudal domain was indeed a little too reckless.

If we pay attention to some methods and strategies, war, if it cannot be avoided, will be much less intense.

After all, this is a civil war, and it is better not to fight it or not.

He was ready to make a presentation to Emperor Jing of Han at the right time.

Even though this may be reproached by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, he Liu Rong is willing to make such an attempt for the sake of the innocent people in the world.

It's not about calculation, this is his feelings.
