Chapter 242: The Lu Clan

Wang Ling sat down and poured himself a drink without being polite.

"I didn't expect the person who came to see me off would be you!!" He smiled wryly.

"Chen Ping respects important people and is here to send him off." Chen Pingdao.

"Respect me?" Wang Ling smiled again, the wrinkles on his face made him look much older than usual, "Respect me, you should walk with me!" ”

In his opinion, Chen Ping is a villain who is sanctimonious and tends to be inflammatory.

Before Zeng Liu Bang became emperor, Chen Ping made Wang Ling despise him for committing adultery with his sister-in-law.

Chen Ping said: "Hitting a stone with an egg is tantamount to self-destruction." ”

Wang Ling said: "It is not in vain that the eldest husband died of integrity, and his name will remain in history." ”

Chen Ping also smiled, with a bit of contempt for Wang Ling in his smile. After laughing, he sighed: "Sure enough, it's still selfish! ”

"What did you say?" Wang Ling was angry.

"You only think about your name in history, have you ever thought about making the Han dynasty last forever?" Chen Ping said in a contemptuous tone.

"Lack of erection and conspiracy!" As he spoke, Wang Ling poured the wine in the cup on Chen Ping's face, and then got up to leave.

Chen Ping took out a handkerchief, wiped the wine stains off his face, and shook his head helplessly. It's so stupid to laugh at yourself for wanting a stubborn old man to understand his intentions.

After Wang Ling was dismissed, no one in the court dared to come forward against Empress Lü. Empress Lu began to unscrupulously add officials to his cronies, and Chen Ping was promoted to the right prime minister, and he was judged to be the left prime minister, and he was in the middle.

Although it is the position of the prime minister of Zuo, he does not deal with the affairs of the prime minister, and specializes in supervising the palace, so that he is like a Lang Zhongling.

Empress Lu often decided things with him, and the ministers had to decide their affairs through him. Although Chen Ping and Zhou Bo were not convinced, they were also obedient.

In addition, Empress Lu also posthumously crowned her two elder brothers as kings, and the establishment of the Lu family as kings began with this. Feng nephew Lü Tai is the king of Lü, Lü Chan is the king of Liang, Lü Lu is the king of Zhao, nephew Lü Tong is the king of Yan and so on.

Therefore, all the people of the Lu clan are not princes but also nobles. He and she sealed the Lu clan in order to consolidate his rule. Because she thinks that as long as the Lu family is prosperous, she will be able to stand.

On this day, when he received a special recital, he went to discuss with Empress Lu.

"The Xiongnu's peace envoy intends to pass through the land and come to Chang'an......"

When Empress Lu heard what he said, she asked, "What bad ideas do you have?" ”

"Hasn't the Queen Mother been trying to represent the king as a big trouble? Since the Xiongnu envoys passed through the Daidi, why not take advantage of this opportunity? ”

"Where's the opportunity?"

He put his hand on his neck and wiped it horizontally. Empress Lu understood and exclaimed: "You want to assassinate the Hun envoy? ”

The judge nodded.

"It's a big deal." Empress Lu said uneasily, "If they anger the Xiongnu, what should they do if they ask for the guilt?" ”

"The queen mother can just use the name of the king's protection to tie up the king and send the king to the Huns for questioning. Since the Huns have the intention of making peace, they will definitely not rashly move troops. ”

Empress Lu thought about it and felt that this plan was feasible, so he handed it over to the judge to do it.

The Xiongnu mission was about to pass through the Daidi and had already handed over the documents to the Chang'an Han Palace. Empress Lu deliberately didn't tell Liu Heng, because she didn't want Liu Heng to send troops to protect her, so as not to judge her and not have a chance to attack.

However, the news that Empress Lu had made Zhu Lu the king reached the Dai Palace, and Liu Heng was so angry that he overturned the table in anger.

"Too much deception!"

"The king is angry......" Wanquan advised, "take care of the dragon's body!" ”

Liu Heng quickly calmed down and lamented: "Could it be that the Liu family's country is going to change its surname to Lu?" ”

Wanquan panicked when he heard this, and persuaded him not to talk nonsense.

Although it is in the Dai Palace, you also have to beware of villains, some people can instantly turn into enemies for the sake of profit. Although there are not many of these in the palace, they are not impossible.

Liu Heng smiled, smiling sadly......

The peach forest in the mountains, picking flowers is in full bloom, colorful, especially after the drizzle, the peach blossoms are delicate, like the smile of a beauty.

The breeze is warm and the wind carries the fragrance of flowers. The stream is murmuring, and the stream is on the edge of the peach forest. It had just rained, and the stream was long, and the tender green grass on the shore had not reached it.

It is a good time to go green, even if you are half a hundred years old, there will be the innocence of children walking in the peach forest.

Even if it's a trial, it's no different.

He walked in the wilderness, and the dew from the blades of grass on the side of the road drenched his shoes and the hem of his clothes, but he didn't care. He is now in a happy and relaxed mood.

He was followed by ten men, two of whom were sabber-bearers, and the other eight were porters. The porters were divided into groups of four, each carrying a large box, large enough to fit a grown man.

It had just rained, and the porters stepped on the ground, leaving a deep and clearly visible footprint.

The box was heavy.

After this peach forest, you will come to a bamboo forest. The wind blew, the waves were gusting, and the water droplets the size of beans fell, as if it was raining heavily.

Water droplets crackle on an umbrella made of bamboo strips.

The man holding the umbrella was a man of long stature, dressed in plain white clothes, and his hands were also very white, to the girl's hand. His appearance was as beautiful and handsome as the girls.

But on that handsome face, there were a pair of eyes full of sadness. In these eyes, everything seems to be gray.

But the tombstone in front of him was white and shiny. There are only a few words on the inscription, which reads "The Tomb of the Beloved Wife". The inscription is the name of the person who erected the monument, and it is written "Zhao Xuan" in a small seal.

The wind blew up his white coat and ruffled his long green silk hair that reached his waist, but he still stood still.

The porters passed through the bamboo forest, they had no way to use umbrellas, and their coarse cloth clothes were already soaked. They stopped, sat on the box, and rested breathlessly.

He also stopped, because there was a bamboo hut in front of him, and this was the room he was looking for.

Taking off his mud-stained shoes and climbing the stairs of the bamboo tower city, he came to the door of the bamboo house.

The door was hidden, and when he knocked, it opened on its own.

The room was small, with only a few cushions and a coffee table with a teapot and a few teacups. On the east side of the room, there is a guqin, and on the wall above the qin, there is an ancient sword. The sword is black, jet-black throughout, and has a simple appearance.

He sat down next to the guqin and found that there was a bamboo slip under the qin. So he played the piano according to the notation.

Empress Lu likes to listen to the piano, so he went to learn the piano, so he played well.

The man in white returned to the bamboo house with an expressionless face, and the porters and guards all looked at him, and they were inexplicably nervous.

He didn't stop, he was still walking so slowly. It was as if he didn't see those people, or maybe he didn't pay attention to them at all. He walked straight into the bamboo house, his home.

"What are you doing here?" A cold person's voice is also cold.

The sound of the piano stopped abruptly, and the judge had his back to him, did not look back, and said abruptly: "Make a deal with you." ”

"Take back all the gold, silver and jewelry in the box." The man said, "You know I only need one thing......

"Ran'er's ashes ......" the judge picked up his words, mentioning the name, and the eyes of this cunning and cunning man also showed love and tenderness.

The man didn't say anything, it was already a tacit acquiescence.

"Good!" He breathed a sigh of relief, got up, turned around, and faced the man, "I can give you ......"

Two days later, the things that the man asked for were delivered, and the conditions for his consumption were also brought in.

"The little king of the Huns, Chang Muhe, will come to Chang'an as an envoy to discuss the matter of peace, and I want you to kill him when he passes through the Daidi...... Time is limited, so let's go! ……”

……

Plum Wood.

The wind carried the fragrance of green plums into the plum dock, and Dou Yifang sat on the roof of the main hall, looking into the distance. In the distance, under the blue sky and white clouds, the outline of the capital city can be faintly seen.

Since Liu Concubine was taken away that day, Dou Yifang cried a lot, and fell ill after crying.

She was strangely ill, her vision became blurry, and everything she could see was a white patch, as if there was a fog.

Danhe thought that she had dried up her tears, and anxiously went to knock on the door and ask people to go to the imperial doctor. Chang Le took a look and couldn't see why.

"Has this ever happened before?" Chang Le asked.

Dou Yifang nodded.

Chang Le decided to find his master, Imperial Physician Xu, and when Imperial Physician Xu came to see it the next day, Dou Yifang could see things again.

Imperial Physician Xu also wondered, and later thought that it was related to too many tears flowing from Dou Yifang, so he prescribed some calming medicine and went back.

Since then, Dou Yifang has basically spent the day on the ridge. There, she could see the capital.

When she is alone, she is always in a daze, and she can't give up. When she was with them, she was no different from usual, eating and drinking, and laughing when she should laugh. But Danhe could feel that Dou Yifang was very depressed, and she was not happy.

After surviving the hardest and saddest month, at the end of spring, Dou Yifang got a chance to leave Meiziwu.

But she didn't want to go out again.

Danhe was worried that she would suffocate herself, so she took turns persuading Lan Yi and duckweed. In the end, Dou Yifang was willing to go out for a walk.

In the royal palace.

Liu Heng took a walk in the Imperial Garden, looking at the last scenery of late spring, which made people feel a little regretful.

"King, tomorrow is the day when Dou Yifang can leave Meiziwu......" Wanquan was worried that Liu Heng would ask later, so he reminded him first.

"Oh." Liu Heng replied lightly, seemingly indifferent. But after a while, he asked, "Where is she going?" ”

"If there is only one day, it should still be within the capital."

Liu Heng nodded in agreement. Continue to walk, but my mind is no longer on this scenery. After walking for a while, he said again: "Let Li Yin keep an eye on ......"

"Yes."

……

In the evening, duckweed and blue clothes are happily planning their route for tomorrow's visit. They planned to go in the opposite direction of the capital, because they didn't want to get close to the capital and make Dou Yifang sad.
