Chapter Seventy-Four: Mutual Trust between Monarchs and Ministers (Seeking to Pursue Reading and Collecting)
Zhu Jun received the command, talked with Cao Cao for a few words, and left in a hurry.
Cao Cao saw Zhu Jun going away and was about to visit He Jin.
Now He Jin is very leisurely, and most of the suggestions of the eldest princess Liu Xian have solved the harm of the locust plague, after all, many of these civilians are even catching locusts, frying them, or sending them to the kitchen of the Luoyang clan.
After a while, Zhu Jun stepped into the inner palace of the palace with the steps of a dragon and a tiger.
Then, Zhu Jun gave a big gift to Liu Hong, and Liu Hong also gave a seat as usual.
"Aiqing, this time to exterminate the rebels, it can be described as extremely hard."
Liu Hong coughed dryly twice, and then the eunuch on the side offered hot water.
"It is the duty of a minister to do his best for the Han."
When Zhu Jun heard Liu Hong's words, he muttered in his heart, and then said.
If this Liu Hong was above the court and said this, this Zhu Jun still felt very reasonable, but it was very unreasonable for Liu Hong to summon himself into the inner palace alone.
"Aiqing, I summoned you here this time for the sake of Prince Liu Wei."
Liu Hong's dry cough just now made him realize that he was a little unwell, so he said this directly.
"Prince? Your Majesty, what does this mean? ”
Zhu Jun couldn't figure it out, could it be that Liu Hong wanted to be the Taifu himself, but the Taifu was Wang Yue.
"Aiqing, do you think that if the crown prince succeeds to the throne, who can assist?"
Liu Hong said tentatively, he hadn't slept for a long time last night, he was thinking about how to arrange the afterlife, and he was more and more afraid of the arrival of death.
However, the weakness of this body is warning him that time is running out, and he has sent many warlocks to refine the pill for himself, and even sent people to Tianzhu Mountain to find Zuo Ci.
However, Zuo Ci of Tianzhu Mountain actually went out to travel all over the world, which made Liu Hong have to think about what happened after he got up.
"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, so why worry about this."
Zhu Jun also felt that Liu Hong's body was very weak, and Liu Hong was coughing.
"Aiqing but it doesn't hurt to say, now I know Aiqing's thoughts, some time ago, Aiqing summoned some ministers in the court and conspired at home, and I also knew."
Liu Hong said to Zhu Jun, who was also a little panicked for a while.
"The ministers are afraid, those ministers are nothing more than friends of the ministers, not conspirators, please let Your Majesty know about it."
Zhu Jun quibbled.
"This one, Aiqing, you can't move."
Liu Hong saw Zhu Jun say this, and said this sentence directly, which made Zhu Jun break out in a cold sweat.
Why did this originally mediocre Liu Hong become like this for a while, if it weren't for Liu Hong, he would be sitting in front of him.
Zhu Jun even wondered if these words came from Liu Hong's mouth.
"The minister has no such intention."
Zhu Jun hesitated for a moment, and then said.
"After the death of the first emperor, my power was held by my relatives, and it was not until I was in charge that the matter of this relative's interference in politics was completely resolved. However, these ministers around me are already eunuchs, and I have no choice but to promote He Jinyi and others. And I don't have enough strength now, but I'm afraid that this prince will also suffer from me in the future. ”
Liu Hong said with a sigh.
"I know that this imperial art has failed, but this Han Dynasty must not be lost in my hands. Therefore, Aiqing should have a heart-to-heart relationship with me. ”
Liu Hong's words touched people's hearts, which made Zhu Jun's heart brighten, and the thoughts of the loyal ministers were clear all of a sudden.
"I also feel that I am an emperor of Zhongxing, but my fate is ill-fated, and I am no longer able to drive this big Han carriage."
Liu Hong sighed again, and then looked at Zhu Jun's expression change.
This Zhu Jun was shocked all of a sudden, and now it turned into a remorseful expression.
"If Your Majesty has such thoughts, the minister is willing to lead the horse for Your Majesty."
Zhu Jun got up directly at this moment, and then knelt on the ground.
"Then Aiqing said, who can assist this prince when he succeeds to the throne?"
Liu Hong smiled with satisfaction, this is a loyal and good minister.
"The minister dares to ask His Majesty to release the eldest princess and General Lu Zhi."
Zhu Jun pondered for a moment, and then said.
"Oh? Aiqing, what does this mean? ”
Liu Hong can be regarded as hearing what he wants to hear, and he has decided to support his daughter Liu Xian, but this Liu Xian is now weak, and he still needs the help of Zhu Jun and Lu Zhi.
"The eldest princess has been smart since she was a child, and this Luoyang locust plague is also a method that the eldest princess came up with, so Your Majesty should reward the eldest princess, and this eldest princess is the prince's sister, compared to that relative, or eunuch is more reliable."
After Zhu Jun finished speaking, the eldest princess continued. "And the old general Lu Zhi is also dedicated to being a big man, but he was slandered by this minister, but fortunately, this minister has been beheaded by His Majesty to show the public. And General Lu Zhi has been in prison, and he is also very aggrieved. ”
Liu Hong heard Zhu Jun's words and nodded, this Zhu Jun's words coincided with Liu Hong.
"Aiqing thinks this eldest daughter is available?"
When Zhu Jun heard this, he immediately said. "Although the eldest princess is a daughter, what she has done this month is not inferior to a man, and she is even better. Take the soap that we now regard as a treasure, who can make such a beautiful object. ”
When Liu Hong heard this, he seemed to think of something, and then asked again.
"According to Aiqing's idea, that is to support another force in the DPRK and China to achieve balance again?"
Liu Hong paused for a moment, and then continued. "It's just that there has never been a female official, I'm afraid I can't convince these Korean and Chinese elders!"
When Zhu Jun heard this, he also had a headache, the eldest princess was most beneficial to her daughter, and the most unfavorable was her daughter.
Because of her daughter, Liu Hong can support her unscrupulously, because she is not a threat to the prince.
In the same way, Liu Xian, as a daughter, is not easy to be this female official.
"Your Majesty, there is a countermeasure to this matter."
When Liu Hong heard this, he hurriedly asked. "Liangchen, do you really have a countermeasure?"
"That's right, Your Majesty doesn't know, the minister has found the talent of the world's unicorn in Nanyang."
Zhu Jun heard Liu Hong say just now, Liu Xian can't come to the front of the stage, so she naturally needs someone to be this superficial official.
Therefore, Liu Hong also needs such a person, and this kind of person must not only have talent, but also strategy.
"The talent of the unicorn in the world? Did Aiqing really find it? ”
Liu Hong was skeptical.
"This son is quite strategic, and he is very broad-minded, and the most important thing is that this son is from a poor family and has little to rely on."
Zhu Jun felt that the person in front of the stage was even more from a poor family and had no dependence.
In this way, no matter how much ability this person has, he can only lean towards the government and the opposition at most, but he will not lose control, because this kind of person will never be able to defeat the Luoyang family.
"Cold? What about the children of the clan? ”
When Liu Hong heard that this person was from a poor family, he was very interested.
"An only son, there are very few children in the clan."
Zhu Jun thought about it and answered truthfully. "The minister originally wanted this son to be the minister's son-in-law."
"Oh? Is this true? ”
Liu Hong didn't expect this Zhu Jun to recruit this person as his son-in-law, this person is from a poor family, and he can actually make Zhu Jun look at him, he is really capable.
"Don't dare to deceive Your Majesty."
As soon as Zhu Jun finished speaking, Liu Hong muttered in his heart, if this son marries Zhu Jun's daughter, then he should have more to rely on.
Therefore, Liu Hong can only use this person as an alternative.
"What is the name of this son? Where is it now? ”
